    Southern Border¡­


    Due to its climate and geography, Southern Border was filled with jungles and poisonous insects. Meanwhile, thanks to conditions such as hot and humid weather and miasma, it was sparsely populated.


    However, there were two sides to everything. Although the environment was harsh and the area was sparsely populated, there was an abundance of unique resources, which attracted many people to open up a world in Southern Border.


    ¡­


    ¡°Tomorrow is the day to plant the Gu?¡±


    At present, Zhou Feng was a little stunned.


    One had to know that he had only transmigrated to this world three days ago.


    In these short three days, he had barely adapted to this world. At the same time, he had barely understood this world, and he was unclear about many things.


    What Zhou Feng could understand now was that this was a cultivation world, and he was a disciple of a cultivation sect, a new one at that.


    If that was all there was to it, it would be fine.


    But after a few days of investigation, he found that he was in an evil sect known as the Tri-Gu Sect. From its name alone, it seemed to be a sect that specialized in raising Gu.


    The original Zhou Feng seemed to have been forcibly taken up the mountain in a nearby village.


    No matter how Zhou Feng looked at it, forcibly taking someone into the sect did not seem like the style of a righteous sect.


    As for the so-called day of planting Gu, simply put, tomorrow, the disciples would need to plant a Gu in their bodies.


    As long as they planted a Gu, then they would be considered to have officially entered the sect.


    Planting a Gu in their bodies?


    Just by hearing it, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body seemed to be saying ¡®No¡¯.


    He did not know what would happen and what were the effects of the Gu worm once it was planted in their bodies. Not only was he clueless about it all, it was something that he would not have any control over.


    ¡®Escape? That is not possible!¡¯


    When thinking of his future days, Zhou Feng¡¯s first thought was to escape.


    But after thinking about it, he realized that this was not realistic.


    Not only were there patrols around the mountain, but miasmata of all sorts was also protecting it. Even if a normal person like him managed to escape, he would not survive.


    He had no confidence that he would be able to survive in this dense forest.


    Even if he escaped, what could he do?


    He was already unfamiliar with this world, so it would be better for him to mingle in the Tri-Gu Sect. In this way, it is more promising to be an ordinary disciple of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Moreover, it was not as if he did not possess a cheating device.


    At that moment, a skill panel appeared in front of him.


    This was the skill panel of a game he had been playing in his previous life, and the name of the game was ¡®Passive Master¡¯.


    In short, all the skills in this game were passive, even the skills of the enemy. The opponents would directly attack each other to see whose skills were more passive and powerful.


    Zhou Feng was uncertain what had happened to the skill panel after transmigrating here.


    ¡°Eh? This is a progress bar? 100%?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that there was a progress bar under the skill panel, and it was already full.


    [Drawing passive skills¡­]


    When the progress bar was full, a lottery screen appeared on the skill panel.


    Then, he drew a passive skill called ¡®Gluttony¡¯.


    Gluttony (Level 1): Every time you digest food, you can digest it faster and more perfectly. At the same time, you will starve faster.


    Zhou Feng immediately felt a bizarre warm current transforming his stomach.


    ¡°Gluttony? This passive skill¡­¡± Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    This skill was considered a late-stage skill in the game.


    In its early stage, this passive skill was too weak as it could not immediately increase battle strength, and the early-stage benefits were not too high. The only advantage was that he could eat more, and he would not need to be afraid of indigestion.


    At the thought of this, Zhou Feng¡¯s stomach started to growl.


    Unfortunately, there were only two steamed buns in front of him. Since he had not planted any Gu, he was not an official disciple of the Tri-Gu Sect yet. Thus, he only had so much to eat.


    ¡°Just bear with it!¡± Zhou Feng picked up the slightly stiff steamed bun and comforted himself in his heart.


    Since he could not change this reality, he had to learn to accept it.


    Zhou Feng was famished, so he finished these two steamed buns in a few bites. He had just gulped down the steamed buns, but he did not feel full at all. Instead, he felt even hungrier.


    He could even feel the blood in his stomach flowing rapidly.


    The two buns he had just eaten seemed to have been directly digested.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    This first passive skill he had obtained was too trashy!


    Zhou Feng looked outside and saw that there were still patrolling disciples, so he instantly gave up on his machinations.


    There was no other way¨C he could only endure like this for an entire night.


    Just like this, Zhou Feng starved for an entire night.


    At daybreak, the other Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s reserve disciples, who were in a similar position as Zhou Feng, gathered together.


    Zhou Feng followed the crowd and blended in to observe his surroundings. He was also observing whether there was anything to eat.


    From last night until now, he had been feeling that the walls of his stomach were burning. He had already gone from a very hungry state to a somewhat numb state now.


    To his surprise, the reserve disciples were also divided into three, six, and nine grades.


    Those like Zhou Feng, who were dressed in rags, were the majority. They were basically at the end of the line or directly pushed to the edge of the line.


    Some people with neat clothes and clean faces were standing in the second line, while a few people were standing at the very front.


    It was as if everyone was following some kind of unspoken rule.


    These three groups of people were clearly divided, and there was a distinct dividing line.


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    The unease in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart grew more and more intense as he observed this scene. This was because compared to the people at the very front, the group at the very back seemed like they were just making up the numbers.


    Most of the people beside him also looked confused. None of them had any idea of what was going to happen.


    Just as Zhou Feng was feeling uneasy, he noticed that a group of people in front of him had started talking. He immediately took two steps forward and pricked up his ears.


    The rag-wearing people next to him looked at Zhou Feng with surprise in their eyes. Then, they immediately lowered their heads and quietly stood there and waited.


    Perhaps the people in the front did not expect that the abandoned villagers behind them would eavesdrop. Thus, they were discussing loudly.


    ¡°Do you plan to choose the Penta-Poison faction or the Bloodthirsty faction?¡±


    ¡°I haven¡¯t decided yet!¡±


    ¡°If it¡¯s possible, I would like to choose the Sect Leader¡¯s faction!¡±


    ¡°You? Based on your capabilities, you dare to choose the Sect Leader¡¯s faction? Stop dreaming!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng made a simple deduction thanks to these people¡¯s discussion topics.


    It turned out that this Tri-Gu Sect should have three factions. They were divided into three factions based on the three types of Gu. These three types of Gu were Penta-Poison Gu, Bloodthirsty Gu, and Ice Spirit Gu.


    The Gu that the Sect Leader¡¯s faction possessed were Ice Spirit Gu.


    Next was the Penta-Poison Gu and Bloodthirsty Gu that formed the elder faction.


    The only people that had come for the ceremony were from the Bloodthirsty Gu and Penta-Poison Gu factions.


    Simply put, among the three Gu, he could only choose to plant in his body the Penta-Poison Gu or the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    ¡®So that¡¯s the case!¡¯


    After digesting the new information, Zhou Feng nodded secretly.

 Chapter 2

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Penta-Poison Gu? It sounded like a Gu refined from five poisons.


    But what was the situation with this Bloodthirsty Gu?


    Zhou Feng began to calculate in his heart which Gu he should choose to plant in his body.


    If one used the Penta-Poison Gu¡¯s name as a reference, it must be a Gu refined from five poisons.


    Zhou Feng had also come into contact with some information about Gu in his previous life. However, he was in the dark as to what kind of Gu this Bloodthirsty Gu was.


    Since Zhou Feng had no information, he could only make blind guesses.


    Most importantly¡­ when would he be able to eat!?


    After waiting for a while, the huge stream of people in the front dissipated bit by bit.


    The people in the front had already finished planting the Gu, and they were taken to different places..


    Finally, it was Zhou Feng¡¯s turn.


    ¡°I¡ª¡±


    Zhou Feng was about to say that he wanted to choose the Penta-Poison Gu, but someone interrupted him before he could say anything.


    ¡°His foundation is not bad! I want this person.¡±


    A 1.9-meter-tall man gave him a simple glance, causing Zhou Feng to swallow his words.


    Then, an extremely small blood-red worm flew to Zhou Feng¡¯s wrist and bit it lightly.


    The skin on his wrist was instantly bitten open, and the Bloodthirsty Gu drilled in and moved slowly along the blood vessels.


    That feeling was simply terrifying.


    Zhou Feng saw a protrusion in his arm with his own eyes¡ªit was slowly crawling toward his heart!


    This Gu-planting process was considered completed.


    After planting the Gu, Zhou Feng walked to the side.


    During the whole process, he had not even had the chance to choose. They had forcefully planted the Bloodthirst Gu in his body.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng had no other choice but to stand at the side and wait.


    ¡®Wait! Why am I feeling dizzy?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that his body was not using much strength, yet he almost fainted on the ground.


    At the same time, his stomach began to growl.


    What was going on?


    If he had reached the stage of numbness and had been too hungry earlier, then he now felt that his stomach was going to swallow him up.


    The cells in his body seemed to be shouting, ¡°I want to eat!¡±


    ¡°There are almost enough people!¡±


    Wei He glanced at the people in the queue behind him and found that they were all as thin as sticks. There was not even a good seedling.


    In addition to the lack of resources recently, they could only train so many people this year. Thus, the Bloodthirsty Gu faction left.


    As for the person in charge of the Penta-Poison Gu faction, he did not mind. He did not reject anyone and planted the Penta-Poison Gu in everyone behind him.


    ¡­


    Wei He, the brawny man who had planted the Bloodthirsty Gu in Zhou Feng, would be their instructor from today onward.


    At present, he was leading the group he had selected up the mountain.


    Zhou Feng endured his hunger and started to observe his surroundings. He discovered that the people who had joined the Bloodthirsty Gu faction were all tall and brawny. Even the skinny Zhou Feng had a thick skeleton.


    As for the Penta-Poison Gu faction, there were no selection criteria. There were all kinds of people among them, fat, short, tall, skinny, and so on.


    ¡°No! Why is my hand so cold!?¡± Zhou Feng touched his hand and found it was very cold.


    At the same time, his vision turned dark. This seemed to be a symptom of anemia!


    ¡®I should not be anemic! What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately placed his suspicion on the Bloodthirsty Gu that had just taken root in his body.


    ¡®The Bloodthirsty Gu is sucking my blood!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng reached a shocking conclusion.


    This Bloodthirsty Gu was really like its name. It directly sucked human blood!


    No wonder the Bloodthirsty Gu faction chose people who were taller and stronger. If they were weaker, they would not be able to withstand it.


    That¡¯s right! This Bloodthirsty Gu was a type of Gu that absorbed Blood Qi to grow.


    Every time the Bloodthirsty Gu absorbed a certain amount of Blood Qi, it would send purer Blood Qi back to its host.


    This purer Blood Qi could produce a large amount of Blood Qi to the host¡¯s body.


    However, this was only the beginning.


    If this Bloodthirsty Gu only had benefits and no disadvantages, then it would not be planted in Zhou Feng and the other new disciples.


    This Bloodthirsty Gu was like a vampire. At the start, the Blood Qi it absorbed would be relatively small, still within an acceptable range. As the Bloodthirsty Gu grew, however, the speed at which it absorbed Blood Qi would also become faster and faster.


    Under such circumstances, one could only cultivate with techniques that strengthened their Blood Qi to counter the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s absorption speed.


    Unfortunately, no matter how much one cultivated or supplemented it, they would not be able to resist the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s absorption speed one day. In the end, the Bloodthirsty Gu would suck them dry.


    When the host died, the Bloodthirsty Gu, as a symbiotic Gu, would also die instantly. The dead Bloodthirsty Gu was an excellent tonic after using a special refining method. It could also become a unique pill.


    At that time, whether one used to refine other pills or directly swallowed it, it would be a good choice.


    Of course, this Bloodthirsty Pill was the best food for similar Bloodthirsty Gu.


    After a Bloodthirsty Gu swallowed enough Bloodthirsty Pills, it would become a Bloodthirsty Gu King.


    As for the Penta-Poison Gu, they were similar, directly using these new disciples as nourishment.


    Zhou Feng was not interested in any of this right now because the Bloodthirsty Gu was constantly absorbing his heart¡¯s blood and Qi.


    He was already starving to death, and if he did not eat, he would faint from low blood sugar.


    Meanwhile, the other people who had just acquired the Bloodthirsty Gu did not fare any better. Their faces were pale, looking dispirited.


    Fortunately, Wei He had already predicted this would happen. Well, it could be said that all the new disciples would face this situation every year.


    ¡°Come! This is a Blood Replenishing Pill! Everyone will take one!¡±


    Wei He took a gourd from somewhere and poured dark red pills out of the gourd.


    Zhou Feng, who had taken the Blood Replenishing Pill, did not suspect whether it was poisonous or not and directly swallowed it.


    After ingesting the Blood Replenishing Pill, pure Qi and blood flowed into his limbs and bones. His growling stomach was slightly alleviated as well.


    Nevertheless, Zhou Feng could still feel that the Bloodthirsty Gu in the center of his heart was still absorbing his Blood Qi.


    ¡°All of you will go to get your tokens and clothes later! Most of you will receive the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s first reverse-feeding tonight!


    ¡°Don¡¯t be too surprised. This is a normal phenomenon!¡±


    Wei He looked around and started to explain some things.


    From today onward, they could be considered as the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s outer disciples.


    Zhou Feng knew very little about this world, so he listened seriously.


    He gave a simple summary of Wei He¡¯s words.


    In simple terms, once one became the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s outer disciple, they could start cultivating.


    After Zhou Feng received his clothes and token, he would be able to obtain a cultivation technique.


    The most important thing was that he could eat for free. Joining the Bloodthirsty Gu faction had one great benefit, which was to have a dining hall.


    They could eat all they wanted in the dining hall, free of charge!


    ¡®This is no different than raising us like pigs, isn¡¯t it!?¡¯


    At that thought, coupled with the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s crazy absorption of Blood Qi, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression turned slightly ugly.


    He used his clever little brain to think.


    ¡®In an evil sect, you can eat and drink for free? How could there be such a free meal in the world?


    ¡®Isn¡¯t this just raising pigs? Once they are fat, you kill them!¡¯

 Chapter 3

    At night, the surroundings became quiet. Other than the occasional sound of insects, there was only the sound of patrolling disciples passing by.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng entered his designated courtyard.


    That¡¯s right! It was a separate courtyard.


    These new disciples would actually live in their own courtyards. They even sent over a pile of food.


    Apart from these, there was also a manual.


    However, the more the Tri-Gu Sect showed such an attitude, the more uneasy Zhou Feng became.


    As an intelligent person, he naturally understood that there was no such thing as getting something for nothing.


    For example, would there be a stranger in this world giving you money for no reason?


    There were only two possibilities: that person was either a fool or could obtain more benefits from you. There was basically no other possibility.


    The disciples who patrolled outside from time to time confirmed Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts. When he tentatively walked out of the courtyard earlier, they immediately discovered him and chased him back to his courtyard.


    ¡®Could it be related to the so-called reverse-feeding?¡¯


    Zhou Feng recalled that Instructor Wei had said that most of them would receive the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s reverse-feeding tonight.


    ¡®Could there be some accident during this reverse-feeding process? Thus, they keep the new disciples under close surveillance?¡¯


    Faced with such strange things, Zhou Feng could not control his thoughts.


    ¡®Forget it! Forget it! Thinking so much will only cause more trouble!¡¯


    There was no point in thinking so much. Even if his speculations were correct, what could he do?


    Without enough strength, he could not change his current situation.


    As such, Zhou Feng picked up the meat in front of him.


    This was cooked meat the sect had sent them, and he could just grab it and eat it.


    What was a little exaggerated was that there were two baskets of meat.


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t read wrong! There were two baskets of meat!


    There was nothing other than meat. As for beverages, there was only water in the water tank beside him.


    Zhou Feng bit off a large piece of meat while muttering in his heart, ¡®Why do I feel more and more that this is like feeding a pig?¡¯


    Due to the Bloodthirsty Gu, Zhou Feng was still very hungry even after consuming the Blood Replenishing Pill. Hence, he started wolfing down the food. He was still more interested in dry food.


    Speaking of which, Zhou Feng recalled his Gluttony (Passive).


    Zhou Feng opened his skill panel and took a casual look. He found that this passive skill had actually been triggered.


    [Digesting Unknown Beast Meat, Blood Qi +1!]


    [Digesting Unknown Beast Meat, Blood Qi +2!]


    [Digesting Unknown Beast Meat, Blood Qi +1!]


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At present, his stomach was like an incinerator. It was constantly digesting the beast meat, and it would, in turn, produce Blood Qi to nourish his entire body.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel a large warm current flowing through his body.


    How should he put it? This feeling was like sitting in a small courtyard in winter while the warm sun was shining on his entire body.


    That warm feeling made people subconsciously squint their eyes and relax their entire bodies.


    Soon, however, this comfortable feeling disappeared.


    After the Bloodthirsty Gu in his heart sensed the Blood Qi, it also began to move.


    Moreover, the speed at which it absorbed the Blood Qi was much faster than before.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt flustered.


    If he continued to absorb the Blood Qi, would he be sucked dry?


    Zhou Feng instinctively started to devour the beast meat in front of him. He chewed and swallowed an endless amount of beast meat.


    Now, he was glad that he had obtained the Gluttony (Passive) skill.


    Thanks to this passive skill, he became a super glutton. He could continuously digest the beast meat in a very short period, converting it into a large amount of Blood Qi to feed the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    Under the situation where the Bloodthirsty Gu was constantly absorbing the Blood Qi provided by the beast meat, Zhou Feng even had the strength to open the manual the sect had provided them.


    ¡®Blood Solidification Art? This is a cultivation technique to control one¡¯s own Blood Qi!?¡¯


    Only now did Zhou Feng realize that this was a method to counter the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    This manual recorded a series of methods to counter the Bloodthirsty Gu and even had an introduction on the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu was a very special Gu as it could live in any living being¡¯s body. The Gu¡¯s host had to provide a large amount of Blood Qi for it to absorb. Otherwise, the Bloodthirsty Gu would start from the heart, biting it bit by bit, urging the host to refine the Blood Qi.


    Still, the Bloodthirsty Gu would not bite too hard. It would only use this as a punishment to urge the host.


    Everyone could imagine how much effort the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s host would put under the pressure of constant angina and the threat of death.


    This Bloodthirsty Gu was no different than capitalists squeezing the workers!


    ¡®As expected! I knew it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could not help but feel a chill down his spine upon reading the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s introduction.


    Other than that, the manual included some simple methods to control the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    There was also the most crucial and special method to circulate Blood Qi as it could speed up digestion.


    At the same time, it could allow the Blood Qi to flow through the entire body, opening up some blocked meridians and making it easier for the subsequent cultivation.


    This was the only hope for these new disciples to survive.


    One had to know that cultivating Gu was not cheap. Even the lowest grade Bloodthirsty Gu was very troublesome to cultivate as it consumed a lot of resources.


    Thus, the new disciples all experienced the most difficult obstacle: to control the Bloodthirsty Gu in their bodies and ensure that they would not be sucked dry.


    For those who had not received this piece of information before, it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.


    Among Zhou Feng¡¯s new batch of disciples, 80% of them were abandoned people who had been randomly captured.


    The so-called abandoned people were refugees who wandered between the mountains and forests.


    In contrast to the abandoned people, there were villagers who lived in fixed villages.


    Compared to the abandoned people, those villagers had received a form of education and had some knowledge of cultivation.


    Therefore, the main force of the new disciples was these villagers.


    The rest of the abandoned people basically could not survive the night.


    However, Zhou Feng did not know much about this.


    He began to circulate his Blood Qi in a specific way in accordance with the Blood Solidification Art recorded in the manual.


    In the beginning, he was still struggling.


    But because he kept eating, a large amount of Blood Qi was generated in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu in his body was temporarily full and started to help him circulate his Blood Qi.


    A new disciple was able to feed the Bloodthirsty Gu in him?


    If the other Bloodthirsty Gu Masters knew about this, their jaws would drop in shock.


    This had never happened before, after all. There had never been a mortal who could feed the greedy Bloodthirsty Gu.


    Even the villagers would feed the Bloodthirsty Gu until it was half-full before using all sorts of methods to seal their Blood Qi, forcing the Bloodthirsty Gu to calm down.


    As for feeding the Bloodthirsty Gu while letting it circulate their Blood Qi? That was something people did not even dare to imagine.


    ¡®So that¡¯s the case! This Bloodthirsty Gu can actually assist one¡¯s cultivation! It is indeed a blessing and a curse!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was enlightened upon sensing that the Bloodthirsty Gu was helping him circulate his Blood Qi.


    In reality, the Bloodthirsty Gu was helping him circulate the Blood Qi because it wanted more.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu found that the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was simply too much.


    It only needed a short period of time to transform.


    The transformation needed more Blood Qi.


    At this time, if it could help Zhou Feng circulate his Blood Qi and obtain more Blood Qi, why not do it?


    Although the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s intelligence was low, it still had a sliver of intelligence.


    It only made the best choice based on instinct.

 Chapter 4

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Thanks to the Blood Solidification Art and Gluttony (Passive)¡¯s assistance, Zhou Feng¡¯s speed of forming Blood Qi was extremely fast.


    Thus, there was no danger at all that night, and the Bloodthirsty Gu had truly begun its first transformation.


    As mentioned earlier, Zhou Feng only needed to provide sufficient Blood Qi. As the host, he could also obtain many benefits.


    Normally, no one could provide enough Blood Qi to allow the Bloodthirsty Gu to undergo a transformation among the many new disciples.


    Normally, they could barely feed the Bloodthirsty Gu and then rely on the Blood Solidification Art.


    Managing to make the Bloodthirsty Gu spit out a trace of pure Blood Qi¡ªto be able to complete this step¡ªwas already considered a talent.


    And this was actually the true entrance trial of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Don¡¯t look at how the Tri-Gu Sect seemed to have no threshold of recruiting new disciples..


    In fact, the threshold was here¡ªonly those with talent in controlling Gu could be brought back to Mount Gu, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s headquarters.


    At present, Zhou Feng and the new disciples were only at a small mountain far away from Mount Gu.


    What was mentioned above was only the situation that ordinary people encountered.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current situation was completely different.


    The Blood Qi he provided was too strong, so the Bloodthirsty Gu directly transformed.


    And he himself did not realize what the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s transformation signified.


    ¡°I will try my best to circulate the Blood Qi throughout my body and open up my blocked meridians¡­¡± muttered Zhou Feng as he controlled the pure Blood Qi that the Bloodthirsty Gu provided after transforming.


    The manual recorded that after the Bloodthirsty Gu provided the pure Blood Qi, the host had to use this Blood Qi to open their meridians.


    During this process, the more meridians the host opened, the easier it would be to cultivate in the future.


    ¡®Painful! Painful! Painful!¡¯


    The process of opening the meridians was even more painful than Zhou Feng had imagined.


    It felt like his body was being torn apart.


    Unexpectedly, at that moment, he displayed astonishing willpower and forcefully endured it.


    He allowed that pure Blood Qi to flow through his entire body, and just like that, several blocked meridians were opened up. At the same time, some of the impurities in his body were conveniently expelled.


    Marrow Cleansing! Wasn¡¯t this Marrow Cleansing!?


    If some of the older Tri-Gu disciples saw this scene, they would definitely be filled with envy and hatred.


    This was one of the few benefits of the Bloodthirsty Gu, after all.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu had all sorts of disadvantages, and if one was not careful, they might even be sucked dry.


    But the reason the Bloodthirsty Gu could gain the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s favor was that when the Bloodthirsty Gu was fed to a certain extent, it could help the host to cleanse their essence and marrow.


    Moreover, this cleansing was continuous and endless.


    The pure Blood Qi would gradually transform one¡¯s body into an Innate Body.


    And the starting point of cultivation was to transform one¡¯s body into an Innate Body.


    However, it was challenging to make the Bloodthirsty Gu willingly help one purify their body.


    After all, all the Bloodthirsty Gu were like Pixiu, they could enter the body but never leave.


    Who knew how many Tri-Gu disciples had waited until their Bloodthirsty Gu sucked them dry.


    They did not even wait for the Bloodthirsty Gu to provide a large amount of pure Blood Qi and cleanse themselves.


    Normally, it was already good enough for the Bloodthirsty Gu to provide a small amount of pure Blood Qi for cultivation.


    ¡®Is this the legendary Marrow Cleansing?¡¯


    Zhou Feng slowly opened his eyes and saw the thick layer of dirt on his body.


    Too powerful! This Bloodthirsty Gu was actually so powerful!


    He wiped away the dirt on the surface and looked at the smooth skin that was exposed. He could not help but sigh.


    This was a complete transformation! His Bloodthirsty Gu was too powerful!


    Unfortunately, before he could say anything, his stomach started to growl again.


    After transforming, the Bloodthirsty Gu started to absorb large amounts of Blood Qi from his body.


    Zhou Feng seemed to hear the Bloodthirsty Gu urging him to quickly turn his food into Blood Qi.


    ¡®Damn it!¡¯


    At that moment, he felt that he was about to be sucked dry. The Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s suction force was much stronger than earlier, and it was extremely violent. It did not know how to restrain itself.


    Zhou Feng, who was forced into a corner, did not have time to clean the dirt on his body. He could only start eating crazily and rely on Gluttony as a passive method.


    He continued to decompose the food, turning it into Blood Qi for the Bloodthirsty Gu to absorb.


    However, the Blood Qi that Gluttony passively transformed could not be supplied.


    Previously, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body was not of high quality, it did not even have a level to it.


    But after its transformation, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body finally levelled up to a proper level. Hence, the Blood Qi it needed was multiplied.


    Not to mention, since the Bloodthirsty Gu had just undergone a transformation, it needed a large amount of Blood Qi to replenish itself.


    Zhou Feng, who looked healthy earlier, was now losing weight at the speed of the naked eye.


    His smooth skin had also become dry and cracked.


    From afar, he looked like a bag of bones.


    ¡®Finally¡­ it stopped!¡¯


    Fortunately, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body slowed down the speed at which it absorbed Blood Qi.


    He had finally made it through this round.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu had stabilized. He only needed to continue eating and replenishing his Blood Qi, and he would be able to recover to his earlier Marrow Cleansing state.


    And just as Zhou Feng was going through these ups and downs, the other courtyards were extremely miserable.


    90% of the new disciples were sucked dry.


    Some desperate people rushed out of their courtyards, but the patrolling teams instantly took them down.


    ¡­


    The sun rose slowly, and a new day arrived as usual.


    Zhou Feng, who hadn¡¯t slept for almost a night, walked out of the courtyard after a simple wash.


    ¡°Eh? Not bad! He actually survived!¡±


    Zhou Feng had just walked out of the house when he encountered Wei He. He saw a trace of surprise on Wei He¡¯s face as if this was out of his expectations.


    He seemed to be surprised that Zhou Feng had survived.


    ¡°Good! Follow me!¡±


    Zhou Feng, who did not know what was going on, followed behind Wei He. Then, he saw Wei He removing the dead Bloodthirst Gu from the corpses.


    Along the way, no one had survived. Even the well-dressed villagers had been sucked to death.


    From their ferocious expressions, it seemed like they had been in great pain before they died.


    ¡°Oh? There¡¯s another one?¡±


    Only in the end did Wei He realize that other than Zhou Feng, another person had survived.


    It was a girl, her long dry hair fluttering in the wind. Her withered appearance looked a little scary under the sunlight.


    ¡°Not bad! There are actually two people who survived! Congratulations! You have officially become Tri-Gu disciples!¡±


    Wei He revealed a smile. He seemed to be in a good mood.


    ¡®Officially became Tri-Gu disciples?¡¯


    Upon hearing these familiar words, Zhou Feng suddenly realized that what Wei He had said earlier was a pack of lies.


    What about officially becoming Tri-Gu disciples? What about having a dining hall and eating whatever one wanted?


    These were probably all fake. They passed the test last night.


    Only those who could survive could be considered as true disciples of the Tri-Gu Sect!


    Zhou Feng recalled the dried corpses he had seen earlier and could not help but feel a chill down his spine.

 Chapter 5

    ¡°Since you have passed the test, I might as well tell you some things!¡±


    Wei He placed the numerous Bloodthirsty Gu he had collected into a small bag and then shared some information with the two people in front of him.


    It turned out that the information Zhou Feng had obtained was fake.


    This was not the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s headquarters, and there were not many cultivators here.


    Naturally, the dining hall Wei He had mentioned earlier was a lie as well.


    There was also the matter of personally teaching everyone this morning, which was also a lie.


    Almost everyone had died that morning¡­ What was there to teach!?


    Next, as an official disciple, Zhou Feng would be brought to Mount Gu, where the headquarters of the Tri-Gu Sect was located.


    After that, the matter of eating would have to be settled by oneself.


    The purpose of this place was to fool the nearby villages into sending the children over.


    In layman¡¯s terms, this place was just a recruitment point.


    It was all to attract more disciples. After all, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s disciples were considered consumables.


    If they did not recruit more people, it would be a huge waste. Hence, they had set up a stronghold here to attract the surrounding villages to send their children over.


    At the same time, this was also the resource point the Tri-Gu Sect controlled.


    Every year, they would send food and Blood Qi Gu to Mount Gu.


    The so-called Blood Qi Gu was actually what they called the Bloodthirsty Gu after the host died.


    Every Blood Qi Gu carried a human life.


    After understanding this cruel truth, Zhou Feng could not help but clench his fists.


    ¡°Alright! You will naturally understand the other things when you reach Mount Gu!


    ¡°You two better get to know each other. After all, it¡¯s not easy to survive in Mount Gu!¡±


    After giving a few simple instructions, Wei He departed, leaving Zhou Feng and the skinny girl who looked like a zombie behind.


    ¡°They¡¯re dead! They¡¯re both dead¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at the skinny zombie-like girl and noticed that she kept talking about death.


    It seemed that some of her relatives and friends had died in this entrance test, and she could not bear the blow.


    Regarding this, he did not have any intention of consoling her.


    Firstly, he was not familiar with others, and secondly, he did not have the energy to care about others at all.


    Right now, everyone was like a clay Bodhisattva crossing the river, unable to protect themselves.


    However, it was also somewhat ironic. He still remembered that as he had waited for the Gu to be planted yesterday, the huge crowd was still divided into three, six, and nine grades.


    There had also been many so-called villagers who looked down on the abandoned people who had been pushed to the edge.


    Everyone was equal in the blink of an eye, and almost all of them had died here.


    ¡®Eh? The progress bar is almost full?¡¯


    Zhou Feng found a shady spot and sat down, then opened the skill panel.


    After opening the skill panel, he was surprised to find that the progress bar below was almost full.


    He remembered that after obtaining Gluttony (Passive), the progress bar had been cleared to 0.


    Why was it suddenly almost full? What kind of rule was this? Or could it be that doing something would speed up the progress of the progress bar?


    ¡®Forget it! It¡¯s better to circulate the Blood Qi!¡¯


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t figure out the reason, so he started practicing the Blood Solidification Art on the spot.


    Meanwhile, he put the dried meat hidden in his clothes into his mouth and started chewing on it.


    During this process, Yin Ling even chatted with him a little.


    That¡¯s right! The girl, who was the same age as him, was called Yin Ling.


    Unfortunately, the two of them did not have much in common to talk about. After a simple awkward chat, there was no meaning to continue the conversation.


    At some point, Wei He finally appeared again.


    The one who brought them to Mount Gu was not Wei He but another senior disciple from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    At this time, Zhou Feng also saw a few withered figures. Those were the other survivors.


    He also saw a familiar face. That person had been standing at the front on the day of the Gu-planting ceremony, but the few people beside that person did not seem to see him.


    Soon, they were brought to the foot of the mountain.


    There were a few huge rhinoceroses in front of them.


    If they guessed correctly, these rhinoceroses were the ones that would bring them to Mount Gu.


    These rhinoceroses were gargantuan, and there was a huge saddle on their backs, enough for many people to sit on.


    At the same time, it was worth noting that these rhinoceroses only had white eyes, no pupils!


    Furthermore, these rhinoceroses did not make any small movements. They were just like a car, without any signs of life.


    How had they accomplished this?


    Zhou Feng looked a little dull on the surface, with a blank expression, but he was crazily asking questions in his heart.


    The atmosphere on the rhinoceroses¡¯ backs was silent and strange. No one spoke, and no one was looking around. Almost everyone had their heads down and did not speak.


    This was probably because what they had experienced before had dealt a huge blow to everyone.


    On the third day of the journey to Mount Gu, Zhou Feng discovered that his skill panel¡¯s progress bar was full.


    He started to randomly draw new passive skills.


    [Drawing¡­]


    [Passive skill obtained, Old Skin!]


    Old Skin (Level 1): Every time you are injured and recover, Defense +1.


    ¡®It is actually a defensive passive skill!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    To be honest, he really needed a defensive passive skill.


    After all, he was in such a dangerous environment right now, so it was necessary for him to have some life-saving measures.


    But when he saw the description of this passive skill clearly, an indescribable expression appeared on his face.


    What did it mean ¡®Every time you are injured and recover, Defense +1¡¯? What kind of trigger condition was this?


    This meant that if he wanted to trigger this passive skill, he had to take a beating first!


    After taking a beating, he had to recover from his injury. Only after recovering from his injury could he increase his defense by a little.


    He didn¡¯t even know what to say about this passive skill.


    This was an exclusive skill tailor-made for masochists and battle maniacs!


    He had no interest in being a masochist, and his character was not that kind of battle maniac.


    Not to mention, how did this Defense +1 measure up? Or rather, what was the actual effect of this Defense +1?


    All of this was unknown, and he must intentionally injure himself when the benefits were unknown!?


    Especially in an evil sect like the Tri-Gu Sect, the risk was too great.


    After thinking about it, Zhou Feng felt that this newly gained passive skill was somewhat useless.


    If there were other passive skills, such as faster recovery from injuries, then this passive skill would be useful.


    Perhaps this passive skill would be useful.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mood was a little complicated after obtaining a mediocre passive skill.


    Unfortunately, it wasn¡¯t the kind of passive skill that defied the natural order. For example, the type that could increase one¡¯s attributes just by hacking.


    However, if you wanted to say how much of a pity it was, then it wasn¡¯t.


    After all, this was practically a free-for-all. It was better than nothing. After thinking about it carefully, it wasn¡¯t a loss at all.


    What else could he do? He could only do this!


    ¡®I only need a period of time to gain a passive skill! Doesn¡¯t that mean that as long as I stay in the game long enough¡­¡¯


    At that moment, he realized a very crucial issue.


    If he could obtain a passive skill every once in a while, then, as long as he dragged on the time, wouldn¡¯t he be able to gain thousands of passive skills?


    At that time, he might not be the strongest, but he would have the ability to protect himself!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s mentality slightly changed. At the same time, his future plans also changed.

 Chapter 6

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After a few days of traveling, Zhou Feng finally arrived at Mount Gu.


    During the past few days, he had learned a lot of information that he did not know before.


    It turned out that he was currently in a region called Southern Border.


    In this region, there were no countries nor a unified government. This region basically consisted of villages and tribes, as well as various sects.


    It was said that if one walked east, they would reach an area called the Eastern Lands.


    There were many countries there, as well as various cultivation clans.


    The information above was all summarized by Zhou Feng through his exchanges with the new disciples of the same batch.


    It was worth mentioning that this batch¡¯s new disciples had already formed a group, and its leader was a fellow named Lin Ming..


    After his body recovered, he looked delicate and pretty, and his face could be considered handsome. He had the temperament of a nobleman as he originated from a large tribe, so he knew a lot of things.


    Thus, he naturally became the leader of this group.


    Of course, he was only the leader in name. After all, no one wanted to suddenly have a leader above them.


    At present, they were only forming a group to deal with life after entering the sect.


    As for Zhou Feng, he knew nothing about the life of the sect, so they could just form a group!


    Finally, Yin Ling had also gotten rid of her haggard appearance.


    Yin Ling, who had returned to normal, was unexpectedly beautiful. She had willow-like eyebrows, a cherry-like mouth, and pale red skin.


    When she was full of vigor, Yin Ling displayed the charm of a 17-year-old girl. Usually, many people would try to court her.


    Among this group of people, Zhou Feng tried his best to downplay himself because he was preoccupied with something else.


    When he saw that the progress bar on the skill panel was already halfway through, he already had a clear direction for his future.


    Given his previous experiences, he speculated that this skill panel only needed a full progress bar, and he would then obtain a passive skill.


    After all, this did not require him to pay any price, nor did it require any specific conditions. The only thing he needed was to wait.


    If that was really the case, then he only needed to live long enough.


    Think about it! There were thousands of passive skills; even if they were not very powerful, the more he accumulated, the more he would be able to surpass most people in an instant.


    Moreover, he did not have the ambition of becoming the Son of Destiny.


    In this world, he had no family, no good friends, and nothing to miss.


    Now Zhou Feng¡¯s mindset was very pure¡ªthat was to live the way he wanted!


    That was his most realistic thought at the moment.


    Thus, he planned to cultivate the Gu Dao. Everything was based on the premise of staying alive.


    Zhou Feng had completely implemented the Gu Dao.


    He mingled with the crowd and officially entered Mount Gu, handling all sorts of matters.


    At the same time, he was assigned to the same courtyard as Lin Ming and Yin Ling.


    In any case, only one word came to his mind: F*ck!


    ¡°New disciples can receive 10 Blood Pills every month. Remember to collect them all later!


    ¡°And every new disciple can receive a body-tempering cultivation technique once.


    ¡°In the end, you have to complete the sect¡¯s mission every day before one can cultivate!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A senior disciple brought them to Courtyard No. 7 and left in a hurry after giving them some instructions.


    Zhou Feng realized that there didn¡¯t seem to be any lazy people in the sect. Everyone he had seen seemed to be in a hurry as if someone was urging them from behind.


    ¡°Good! Let¡¯s start dividing the rooms!¡±


    After the senior disciple left, Lin Ming, as the leader of the group, spoke first.


    Everyone also started to move one after another.


    The entire Mount Gu was directly divided into three parts: the foot of the mountain, the mountainside, and the peak.


    These new disciples lived at the foot of the mountain, while the elite disciples stayed at the mountainside.


    The peak was naturally where the Elders and the Sect Leader lived.


    The layout at the foot of the mountain was also very interesting. It was directly divided into more than ten courtyards, and each courtyard could accommodate about 10 to 20 people.


    Then, there were all kinds of unique buildings built at the foot of the mountain.


    The Merit Gathering Hall, the Merit Transmitting Hall, and the Scripture Pavilion were all at the foot of the mountain.


    The way the Tri-Gu Sect taught the new disciples was also very evil.


    In the first year after entering the sect, all the new disciples would receive 10 Blood Pills every month.


    Zhou Feng had also eaten this kind of Blood Pill before. Its main function was to recover a large amount of Blood Qi so that the Bloodthirsty Gu would not devour the host.


    This was the most important resource for these new disciples because only with sufficient Blood Pills could they ensure that they would not be sucked dry and simultaneously have the spare energy to cultivate.


    Then there was the lack of an entry-level instructor.


    Want to cultivate? Learn it yourself!


    Or spend money to go to the Strength Imparting Hall and ask some senior disciples or Elders to teach you.


    And the most extreme thing was that the sect would not be worried about wasting resources, nor would they be afraid of you wasting your time.


    After all, every new disciple had a Gu planted in their bodies.


    Every day wasted meant that they were getting closer to death.


    Under the threat of death, no one would slack off.


    Even the new disciples who had joined the Penta-Poison Gu faction were the same.


    Actually, they were even more miserable than the Bloodthirsty Gu faction¡¯s disciples because they had to obtain Detoxification Pills every once in a while to remove the Penta-Poison Gu¡¯s poison.


    Otherwise, they would be tortured to death.


    Raising Gu¡ªthese two words could roughly describe the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s style of cultivating its disciples.


    It directly gave them an extremely harsh environment to struggle in.


    No matter how good one¡¯s talent was or how smart one was, everything would be empty talk


    as long as they couldn¡¯t survive.


    The law of the jungle was fully displayed in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    And the law of the jungle started from the moment they received the Blood Pill.


    Outside the Merit Gathering Hall¡­


    When Zhou Feng and the others appeared, many people surrounded them, and countless wolf-like gazes were fixed on them.


    Although the new disciples felt a little uncomfortable, they did not think too much and walked into the Merit Gathering Hall. Most of them were being modest, so they let Yin Ling take her Blood Pills first.


    ¡°Wait! Hand over your Blood Pills!¡±


    Just as Yin Ling took the Blood Pill and walked to the Merit Gathering Hall¡¯s entrance, a burly bare-chested man stopped Yin Ling.


    The bare-chested man¡¯s body had all kinds of scars, big and small, and a sense of oppression came from it.


    ¡°Senior Brother¡­ I¡ª¡±


    A pitiful expression appeared on Yin Ling¡¯s face, and just as she was about to speak, the bear-chested man swung his steel-like fist.


    Bang!


    It was as if a heavy hammer had struck Yin Ling, and her entire body fell backward.


    ¡°Take them out!¡±


    Her beautiful face did not have any effect at all, and the bear-chested man stepped on Yin Ling¡¯s body.


    The onlookers also looked like they were watching a good show. They had no intention of helping at all.


    On the contrary, they kept looking at the Merit Gathering Hall¡¯s entrance to see which unlucky fellow would come out.


    After all, this was one of the few relaxing times of the year.

 Chapter 7

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°So fragrant! What is this smell?¡±


    Zhou Feng had just walked into the Merit Gathering Hall when a fragrant odor assaulted his nostrils.


    This smell was like a mixture of many things.


    At that moment, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body moved slightly, but it quieted down in an instant. It was as if it was lying on the ground, not daring to move.


    Upon sensing that the Bloodthirsty Gu was playing dead, Zhou Feng also realized that there seemed to be experts here.


    Ever since he had transmigrated to this world, he had never seen a cultivator make a move.


    He wondered if the cultivators in this world could move mountains and fill seas, burning the sky and boiling the sea.


    And how did cultivators cultivate?


    Speaking of which, he was really confused about how to cultivate..


    What exactly was cultivation? How did one deal with Gu? How did cultivators even fight?


    He was not clear about any of this.


    To be honest, his heart was in extreme need of this knowledge. He was eager to understand everything.


    However, his reason told him that he had to remain calm and not act rashly.


    Therefore, even though Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was already in turmoil, he still had a wooden expression on his face.


    In fact, after a long time, he even suspected that he would end up with facial paralysis.


    ¡°Token!¡±


    ¡°10 Blood Pills! Next!¡±


    Zhou Feng approached the counter and showed the sect token that he had obtained previously.


    10 Blood Pills!


    The whole process was very short, so short that only two sentences were spoken.


    Under such circumstances, even if Zhou Feng wanted to continue observing the Merit Gathering Hall¡¯s internal environment, he had no choice but to leave quickly.


    This was because he felt that two gazes were already fixed on him.


    These two gazes caused his entire body to feel as if a prehistoric beast was targeting him.


    Under such pressure, Zhou Feng did not dare to stay any longer.


    Unexpectedly, when he reached the door, he heard Lin Ming¡¯s scream.


    Zhou Feng had deliberately downplayed his existence, so it was only natural that he was the last person to receive the Blood Pills. He was also the last person to walk out of the Merit Gathering Hall.


    ¡°Is this¡­ a robbery?¡±


    Zhou Feng could not help but squint his eyes upon noticing the others¡¯ precarious situation. He saw Lin Ming directly fall into a pool of blood, but he still held the Blood Pills in his hand.


    Meanwhile, many people from the same courtyard as Zhou Feng had also collapsed on the ground.


    The senior disciples were robbing the new disciples¡¯ Blood Pills!


    This should be considered a regular practice of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Due to the way the higher-ups nurtured their disciples, the senior disciples robbing the new disciples¡¯ resources was a natural occurrence.


    Some higher-ups even tacitly approved of this method.


    After all, this was also a way to quickly select good seedlings.


    If the environment wasn¡¯t harsh, how could one stimulate their potential?


    Nevertheless, there were rules when it came to robbing Blood Pills.


    In order to prevent some special situations, such as a senior disciple relying on their strength to rob all the new disciples of their resources, some unspoken rules had been established.


    That was, a senior disciple could only snatch 10 new disciples¡¯ Blood Pills at most. At the same time, the new disciples had to hand them over personally.


    If the new disciples were unwilling, then one couldn¡¯t forcefully snatch them.


    How was it? Did this sound like the higher-ups still had a trace of humanity?


    Unfortunately, in reality, there were too many things that could be manipulated.


    For example, Lin Ming had been severely injured. As long as he didn¡¯t hand them over, he would be crippled.


    That¡¯s right! As long as no one died, no one would care about crippling the other party.


    The other people in Zhou Feng¡¯s courtyard had already handed over half of their Blood Pills. At present, only Lin Ming hadn¡¯t handed over his pills.


    Yin Ling, who had been the first to leave, covered her red and swollen face. Looking at the stubborn Lin Ming, she was anxious.


    ¡°Are you going to hand them over or not?¡± Xiong Dan kept crushing the fingers on Lin Ming¡¯s left hand with one foot, and his tone gradually became impatient.


    However, Lin Ming made his attitude clear with his actions.


    His right hand tightly grasped the Blood Pills that he had just received.


    This scene surprised Zhou Feng. He didn¡¯t expect Lin Ming to be so stubborn. After all, in his eyes, Lin Ming was just a naive young master.


    Lin Ming, who was born in a village, was a little childish in his usual behavior. He looked like he hadn¡¯t experienced the baptism of society.


    ¡°Tsk! How can this person be so stubborn? His luck is so bad that he even encountered Xiong Dan!¡±


    ¡°Yeah! Xiong Dan seems to be about to break through and is in urgent need of resources. Thus, he directly lowered himself to snatch the new disciples¡¯ Blood Pills!¡±


    ¡°The gains don¡¯t make up for the losses! It¡¯s just a few Blood Pills. It would be terrible if they were crippled!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Some of the senior disciples beside them were discussing excitedly.


    This was because it had been a long time since such a stubborn newcomer had appeared.


    In the past, as long as they threatened a newcomer, they would basically obediently submit. They did not expect to encounter a tough opponent this time. Even if he was crippled, he would not hand them over.


    In reality, Xiong Dan was completely capable of snatching other people¡¯s Blood Pills. There was no need to waste time here.


    After all, Xiong Dan¡¯s strength was about to break through to the Body Refining realm. There was no one among the new disciples who could resist him.


    However, Xiong Dan did not like Lin Ming at all.


    Everyone had handed over their pills obediently, even when Xiong Dan had just entered the sect.


    ¡®Why do you have to be such a thorn? Why do you want to be different from the others? Then I will grant you your wish!¡¯


    ¡°Someone is coming out!¡±


    At that moment, someone noticed Zhou Feng, who had walked out of the Merit Gathering Hall.


    Xiong Dan seemed to have heard something and slowly turned his head.


    ¡°Hand over half of your Blood Pills!¡±


    Xiong Dan¡¯s calm tone carried a hint of extreme impatience. He had already wasted a lot of time thanks to Lin Ming, so he did not want to continue wasting it.


    One had to know that the Bloodthirsty Gu in his heart was devouring his Blood Qi at all times.


    In another month, three years would be up.


    He could not afford to delay any longer.


    In the Tri-Gu Sect, all the disciples who entered the sect only had three years to cultivate.


    During these three years, one had to break through to the Body Tempering realm and reach the Qi Gathering realm to become an inner disciple.


    Otherwise, they could only be ¡®recycled¡¯.


    The sect would not waste resources on them for nothing.


    If a person could not break through to the Body Refining realm in three years, the sect would directly recycle the waste.


    It was precisely because of this that Xiong Dan was so irritable.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng had to make a decision.


    Should he hand them over or not?


    Xiong Dan believed that Zhou Feng would be tactful when he saw what a miserable ending awaited him.


    After all, it was already very rare for a thorn like Lin Ming to appear.


    How could there be a second thorn like this idiot?


    This was simply impossible!


    ¡®Hand them over? Not hand them over? Only an idiot would hand them over!¡¯


    Whether to hand them over or not, this question only lingered in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind for half a second.


    He had made up his mind. It was impossible to hand over half of the Blood Pills!

 Chapter 8

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Logically speaking, Zhou Feng should hand over half of the Blood Pills to avoid conflict.


    At the same time, he could keep a low profile. No one would pay attention to such a new disciple.


    That sounded like Zhou Feng¡¯s previous plan of keeping a low profile and cultivating the Gu Dao the entire time.


    However, after pondering over it, Zhou Feng realized that this was a very stupid decision.


    Firstly, all the new disciples were facing huge pressure.


    According to the performance of the Bloodthirsty Gu, even if he had Gluttony (Passive), he could obtain additional Blood Qi.


    However, if the Blood Pill was used as a cultivation resource, the future days of cultivation would definitely be very difficult.


    Next was the issue of personal perception..


    Showing weakness to the enemy was not omnipotent in Zhou Feng¡¯s view.


    For ordinary people, if you showed weakness, others would only think that you were easy to bully.


    Later, when they needed something, they would think of a soft persimmon like you. They would pinch you from time to time.


    Not to mention that the Tri-Gu Sect was an evil sect.


    Endure humiliation? Endure!?


    That would only make you lose more resources. Even if you were talented enough, it would be a waste if you didn¡¯t have enough resources.


    The perspective of a person from two lifetimes made Zhou Feng more rational, and his perspective on the problem was also more advanced.


    Other than that, there was also the most important reason that supported him in doing so.


    That was¡­ the progress bar of the skill panel was actually full now!


    That¡¯s right! This time, you didn¡¯t read wrong! The progress bar of the skill panel was full again!


    Zhou Feng had clearly checked it earlier, but why was the progress bar full when he had just come out of the Merit Gathering Hall?


    Unsurprisingly, Zhou Feng had obtained another passive skill.


    It was precisely because of this passive skill that he had the confidence not to hand over half of his Blood Pills.


    Self-Healing Constitution (Level 1): You are able to recover injuries slowly and autonomously. Appropriate medicine can speed up this self-healing process.


    This was a passive type of recovery!


    There was no trigger condition. As long as Zhou Feng was injured, it could be triggered all the time.


    Moreover, the speed of self-healing would also be affected by the medicine.


    The simple explanation was that if there was medicine, then the speed of self-healing would be faster.


    Perhaps just the description did not make it sound so great. However, if it worked in tandem with Old Skin (Passive) he obtained previously, the situation would be different.


    Old Skin¡¯s role was to increase his Defense by 1 point every time he recovered from an injury, while his Self-Healing Constitution¡¯s role was to speed up his injury recovery.


    This unintentionally formed a small cooperation.


    Thus, based on the previous trade-offs and his Self-Healing Constitution (Passive), Zhou Feng immediately made up his mind.


    Zhou Feng acted as if he did not hear what Xiong Dan had said. He was still wearing a dull expression on his face.


    In fact, he was already prepared, and his gaze was focused on Xiong Dan.


    ¡°Kid! Are you deaf?¡±


    When Xiong Dan saw his expression, a blazing fire rose in his heart.


    Were all the new disciples nowadays so arrogant? Not one, but two of them dared to ignore him!?


    Faced with Xiong Dan¡¯s questioning, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t answer. He just walked forward silently, as if he couldn¡¯t hear him at all.


    ¡°Amazing! Is this person really deaf?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s over! Xiong Dan is going crazy!¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s going to be ruthless! Look!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people in the surroundings were also shocked when they saw this scene.


    These new disciples were too stubborn!


    It seemed that they still hadn¡¯t realized the cruelty of the inner sect.


    Xiong Dan¡¯s huge body displayed extreme speed. His somewhat heavy body rushed in front of Zhou Feng in the blink of an eye.


    In an instant, it really looked like the Bear King had come out of the mountains.


    A wave of murderous aura rushed straight at Zhou Feng.


    As for Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction, it was also swift. The first thing he did was to hug his head and slightly squat down.


    Pu!


    Zhou Feng seemed to have suffered a heavy blow and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.


    This simple punch was too heavy, so heavy that he felt as if he had been hit by a truck.


    But soon, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body seemed to sense the host¡¯s danger. Then, a stream of pure Blood Qi gushed out and weakened the intense pain greatly.


    Surprisingly, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes turned blood red, while his rationality was instantly eroded.


    The surrounding people did not know that the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body had already transformed.


    Although it had not reached the level of a Rank 1 Gu, it possessed the Bloodthirst Skill.


    The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s main cultivation method was feeding Gu.


    Every time a Gu transformed, it would give the host many benefits.


    Bloodthirst was the most basic skill of the Bloodthirsty Gu, and it could allow the host to enter the Bloodthirsty State.


    After entering the Bloodthirsty State, the host¡¯s rationality would instantly be reduced by half, while the strength of the body would increase in a straight line.


    In game terms, it was a Berserker skill. When the Bloodthirsty State ended, the body would sustain a lot of damage.


    At the same time, Bloodthirsty Gu would devour large amounts of Blood Qi.


    This was equivalent to taking out a loan during a fight.


    ¡°Red eyes? This is the Bloodthirsty State? How is this possible!?¡±


    ¡°This is a new disciple?¡±


    ¡°The Bloodthirsty Gu is transforming so quickly? This is not right!¡±


    ¡°The Bloodthirsty Gu is actually willing to spit out so much pure Blood Qi!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s state,


    The eyes of many old men who were watching the show almost popped out of their sockets when they noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s state.


    This was clearly the Bloodthirsty State, a skill that could only be mastered after the Bloodthirsty Gu underwent a transformation.


    Moreover, it also required a good relationship with the Bloodthirsty Gu to be able to use it.


    It must be known that many disciples who had entered the sect for a long time¡ªeven if their Bloodthirsty Gu had undergone several transformations¡ªwere still unable to enter the Bloodthirsty State.


    The reason was that the Bloodthirsty Gu was unwilling.


    Only those who were born with Gu affinity could easily enter the Bloodthirsty State.


    ¡°Bloodthirsty State? Genius?¡±


    Xiong Dan¡¯s eyes turned scarlet red.


    A black shadow flashed past, and that huge bear-like body appeared in front of Zhou Feng once again.


    Zhou Feng, who was in the Bloodthirsty State, was now fighting by instinct.


    He raised his right hand to block the punch.


    At the same time, a move appeared in his mind¡ªIron Mountain Leaning1!


    Zhou Feng twisted his body and slammed his right shoulder into Xiong Dan¡¯s chest.


    Crack!


    A bone-breaking sound echoed!


    Zhou Feng felt as if he had crashed into a city wall made of iron, and the bone in his right shoulder was slightly cracked.


    The gap between their realms was still too big.


    Xiong Dan was at the 9th Layer of Body Tempering realm, while Zhou Feng had just started to cultivate.


    This attack was completely based on instinct. Although Xiong Dan didn¡¯t react at all, he didn¡¯t suffer much damage. He only felt a stuffy feeling in his chest.


    Then, he sent Zhou Feng flying with another punch.


    However, this time, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t feel much pain. In his Bloodthirsty State, even the pain seemed to be reduced.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s slightly red eyes stared intently at Xiong Dan.


    At the same time, he took out the Blood Pills that he had just received and consumed three in one bite.


    His originally dried-up Blood Qi reserve was once again filled up!

 Chapter 9

    Lin Ming watched Xiong Dan and Zhou Feng directly confront each other. A force made him struggle to get up.


    Upon recalling that he had no intention of resisting earlier, Lin Ming felt as if his face was on fire.


    When the other new disciples saw this scene, their spirits seemed to have returned. Their eyes stared straight ahead.


    As for the senior disciples who were watching the show or preparing to snatch a plethora of Blood Pills, their faces were already filled with astonishment.


    They had never thought that things would escalate to such a degree.


    A new disciple was actually fighting against Xiong Dan?


    Moreover, he could even exchange a few rounds with him? Who would believe this!?


    One had to know who Xiong Dan was. He was someone that was about to break through to the Qi Gathering realm and become an inner disciple..


    His nickname ¡®Bear Gall¡¯ might seem a little funny, but he was also a famous genius. He was born with vigorous Blood Qi and divine strength. His skeleton was thicker than ordinary people¡¯s.


    He had entered the Tri-Gu Sect for less than a year and was already at the 9th Layer of Body Tempering realm.


    It was rumored that Xiong Dan had sparked the interest of an Elder. As long as he broke through to the Qi Gathering realm, he would become said Elder¡¯s personal disciple.


    It was precisely because of this deterring force that the other senior disciples did not dare to fight for the Blood Pills.


    At the very least, they had to wait until Xiong Dan was completely gone before they took action.


    Speaking of this, some people would probably be puzzled.


    An Elder had actually chosen Xiong Dan. How could he be so lacking in resources, even snatching the Blood Pills of new disciples?


    This actually had something to do with the reasoning of the Tri-Gu higher-ups when nurturing their disciples. Many Elders felt that having talent was indeed an advantage, but it was not all.


    They had a saying, ¡°A genius falls, and a villain rises by relying on underhanded means.¡±


    This was nothing new in the Tri-Gu Sect, so having talent did not mean everything.


    As such, these Elders would at most pay attention to you, but in reality, they would not do anything to help.


    If you could successfully break through to the Qi Gathering realm, then everything would be fine. It would prove that you had the value to be nurtured.


    But if you unfortunately died, then die!


    Because this proved that you were only a fake genius, not a true genius.


    A true genius, other than cultivation talent, had to be proficient in all sorts of methods. Otherwise, one would sooner or later be played to death in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡± Xiong Dan charged forward once again.


    His fist generated a whistling sound as it pierced through the air; just by listening to that sound, one could feel just how much force was packed in that punch.


    Two punches¡ªone from the left and one from the right¡ªlanded on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, causing him to sway left and right.


    Zhou Feng was no different from Xiong Dan¡¯s punching bag due to the huge difference in strength.


    Even so, Zhou Feng still used all his strength to defend. His arms covered his head as he tried his best to avoid getting punched in the vital points.


    At the same time, he was holding his breath, ready to counterattack at any time.


    Once again, Zhou Feng was sent flying.


    Unexpectedly, after only three seconds, he slowly got up again.


    But this time, he was in a really miserable state. His entire body was covered in blood.


    Zhou Feng still had the same dull expression and didn¡¯t say a word. He picked up two Blood Pills with one hand and stuffed them into his mouth.


    At present, he no longer weighed the gains and losses. He only wanted to punch the man in front of him now.


    Even though he did not say anything, the people around him could feel his ruthlessness.


    Large amounts of Blood Pills provided large amounts of Blood Qi.


    Under the stimulation of large amounts of Blood Qi, the Bloodthirsty Gu absorbed large amounts of Blood Qi in real-time and then produced pure Blood Qi to support Zhou Feng.


    To be honest, if it was not for the Bloodthirsty Gu constantly replenishing his Blood Qi, Zhou Feng would not have been able to hold on for so long.


    Most importantly, the passive skill he had just obtained, Self-Healing Constitution, was already slowly healing his injuries. Even though this speed was very slow, he was recovering bit by bit.


    ¡°Kid! You are courting death!¡± Xiong Dan roared again.


    If there was no comparison, Xiong Dan¡¯s appearance would indeed be very frightening.


    But looking at the expressionless Zhou Feng standing opposite Xiong Dan¡­


    In this situation, Xiong Dan looked kind of incompetent and enraged.


    Traces of killing intent rose!


    Xiong Dan¡¯s heart was already filled with the desire to kill.


    A kid who had just entered the sect actually dared to act in this way. If Xiong Dan didn¡¯t kill him, he simply couldn¡¯t take this lying down.


    Surprisingly, just as this killing intent rose, a trace of icy coldness rose from behind him.


    Senior disciples were not allowed to kill new disciples in public, especially in front of the entrance of the Merit Gathering Hall.


    Although the Tri-Gu Sect had very cruel rules, some basic principles still needed to be followed.


    If you did it in secret, the higher-ups would not care.


    But it was not allowed in front of everyone.


    That chill instantly woke Xiong Dan up, and the redness in his eyes immediately faded. He understood that someone was warning him.


    After waking up, Xiong Dan grinned at Zhou Feng, and his words carried a naked threat. ¡°You have guts! I hope you can live for three more days!¡±


    He turned around and left upon saying that.


    Staying here now would only add to the joke.


    However, when Xiong Dan left, he still took away all the Blood Pills of Lin Ming, Yin Ling, and the others.


    Previously, Lin Ming and the others had been able to keep half of their Blood Pills, but now, not a single one was left.


    Faced with the smiling Xiong Dan, no one dared to resist.


    Any trace of resistance that Lin Ming had just felt vanished instantly after sensing Xiong Dan¡¯s suffocating killing intent.


    No one dared to directly resist like Zhou Feng.


    From a certain point of view, it seemed that Zhou Feng had implicated them. If not for that, they would still be able to keep half of their Blood Pills.


    Xiong Dan, who had already walked far away, suddenly shouted, ¡°If you want to blame someone, blame him! I want to see what will happen in a courtyard where no one has Blood Pills, and only a seriously injured person has Blood Pills.¡±


    His words were full of the intention of sowing discord.


    Although this method of sowing discord was crude, it was very useful.


    Xiong Dan had snatched the Blood Pills of almost everyone from Courtyard No.7. Only the severely injured Zhou Feng still had Blood Pills.


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have many Blood Pills now, only five, he was still alive. The others didn¡¯t have a single one.


    And in the early stage, if there was no supply of Blood Pills, recovering one¡¯s Blood Qi would waste most of their time.


    This was especially true for the first time one cultivated a martial technique or cultivation technique. In the end, they would have to take a Blood Pill. This way, their cultivation progress would be faster.


    As soon as these words were uttered, the expressions of Lin Ming and the others changed slightly.


    They looked at Zhou Feng with an inexplicable look.


    To be honest, they were not that familiar with Zhou Feng. Or it could be said that everyone from Courtyard No.7 had only been acquainted with each other for a few short days.


    What was more important than a few days of friendship, cultivation, and one¡¯s own name?


    This seemed to be an answer that could be given with one¡¯s toes.


    Xiong Dan seemed to be a foolish and muscular brute, so no one expected he would actually use such a trick.


    Things like human nature simply could not withstand the test.


    Not to mention in the Tri-Gu Sect, as long as one stayed for a few more days, some worldviews would be directly reversed.


    Zhou Feng instantly felt a wave of malice wrapping himself.

 Chapter 10

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After Xiong Dan left, Zhou Feng calmed down while the Bloodthirsty Gu started to devour large amounts of Blood Qi in his body.


    Moreover, it did not have any intention of discussing with him. It seemed like it was trying to replenish the Blood Qi that he had just lost.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face turned pale due to its absorption speed, so he took out a Blood Pill and consumed it without hesitation.


    The vigorous Blood Qi in the Blood Pill allowed him to recover.


    Soon after, Zhou Feng decided to take his leave. He had sustained severe injuries, so he had to find a place to recover properly. In addition, thanks to Xiong Dan¡¯s instigation, he didn¡¯t dare to return to Courtyard No.7 directly.


    After all, no one could guarantee his safety in Courtyard No.7..


    As for where to go, he had already thought of it¡ªthe Scripture Pavilion!


    All new disciples had a chance to enter the Scripture Pavilion. and it should be the safest place he could find at the moment.


    Even though his entire body was in extreme pain, he still forced himself to support his body. He tried his best to make himself look fine and then slowly walked in the direction of the Scripture Pavilion.


    Many people in the surroundings were ready to make a move as Zhou Feng seemed to be a good target now.


    Although he did not have many Blood Pills now, it was a waste to leave them with him.


    However, many people hesitated when they saw Zhou Feng¡¯s expressionless face.


    This was a truly ruthless person. Did they have to offend such a ruthless person for the sake of a few Blood Pills?


    If this person was forced to eat all the Blood Pills, wouldn¡¯t the gains outweigh the losses?


    After weighing the pros and cons, the restless crowd quieted down.


    As for Lin Ming and the others, they looked in the direction Zhou Feng left with a complicated expression.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood after finally getting rid of everyone¡¯s sight.


    He was really pretending now.


    His mind had been affected by the Bloodthirsty Gu earlier, and he felt as if his brain had been eaten at that moment. The only thought in his mind had been to tear apart everything in front of him.


    This was definitely a huge side effect.


    Even though his physical strength had increased by several levels in that special state, this was not what he wanted.


    Losing his mind was the most terrifying thing. Thus, getting rid of the Bloodthirsty Gu became his primary goal.


    Previously, because of the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s benefits, Zhou Feng had actually considered keeping this Bloodthirsty Gu. He had wanted to see if he could rely on his own ability to tame it completely.


    Now, he no longer had any hope.


    This was the greatest scourge, and if there was a chance, he had to deal with it first.


    ¡®Fortunately, I have the Self-Healing Constitution (Passive). Otherwise, it would have been really troublesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but feel a little fortunate.


    Luckily, he had obtained the Self-Healing Constitution (Passive), a truly excellent passive skill. He could clearly feel that his injuries had lessened a bit in just such a short time.


    At least, his condition was not as bad as before.


    At this rate, he only needed to stay in the Scripture Pavilion for an afternoon, and his injuries would almost completely heal.


    This might have something to do with the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s Blood Qi. It seemed to have a lot of effect on his injuries.


    Coupled with his Self-Healing Constitution (Passive), his injuries would definitely recover faster than expected.


    Meanwhile, once his injuries recovered, he would be able to trigger Old Skin¡¯s passive ability.


    ¡®When my Defense increases by 1 point, will the effect be obvious?¡¯ As Zhou Feng pondered over this, he arrived at the Scripture Pavilion.


    He was stunned that the Scripture Pavilion was only a two-story building.


    From the outside, it even looked a little shabby. It didn¡¯t seem like a place where a sect would store secret manuals.


    The one guarding the Scripture Pavilion was actually a young man, and he didn¡¯t look much older than him.


    ¡°Token!¡± This person was as impatient as ever, unwilling to say a word.


    Zhou Feng also maintained his silence as he took out his token.


    ¡°Go in! Remember, once you¡¯re out, you can¡¯t go in again!¡± The disciple guarding the pavilion instructed and closed his eyes.


    ¡®So lax? And there really is only one disciple guarding the place? Why does it feel so wrong? What¡¯s the catch?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly as he slowly walked into the so-called Scripture Pavilion.


    ¡®Right! I know what¡¯s wrong! Why are there so few Elders in the sect?¡¯


    He recalled all the details since he had entered the Tri-Gu Sect and suddenly realized that almost everyone in the sect seemed to be very young.


    Then where did the seniors of the sect go?


    There were only a few disciples on duty in the Merit Gathering Hall.


    On top of that, the ones that had accompanied the new disciples who had joined the sect were the so-called inner disciples.


    Where were the sect¡¯s Elders?


    Was it possible Zhou Feng was overthinking? After all, it was normal for someone at his level not to be able to get in touch with the higher-ups.


    Still, it didn¡¯t make sense!


    Logically, there must be some people who don¡¯t possess much talent in a sect like this. Those people would most likely find a position in the sect. After all, not all of them could join the sect¡¯s upper echelon.


    Why weren¡¯t there any of these people?


    After letting his imagination run wild for a while, Zhou Feng walked to the bookshelf and casually picked up a cultivation technique.


    ¡°Vajra Strength Fist!¡±


    ¡®Fist technique? How did this¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng furrowed his brows furrowed even more.


    ¡°Black Tiger Fist!¡±


    ¡®Another fist technique?¡¯


    ¡°Thousand Leaves Palm!¡±


    ¡®This time, it¡¯s a palm technique?


    ¡®Are these the so-called cultivation techniques?¡¯


    This pile of manuals was no different from the Blood Solidification Art he had obtained previously. All of them were methods to strengthen and control the Blood Qi.


    No wonder they were so lax, and only one person was guarding this place. The Scripture Pavilion didn¡¯t have any good cultivation techniques.


    Zhou Feng felt a little indignant.


    He flipped through a few manuals and found that some of the cultivation techniques were incomplete.


    As for the manuals in the corners of the pavilion, the furthest they were, the more severely incomplete they were. What¡¯s worse, insects had bitten some of them to shreds!


    Only the cultivation techniques on the first bookshelf were still relatively complete.


    Zhou Feng had no choice but to choose the Vajra Strength Fist cultivation technique. He sat on the ground and silently memorized it.


    It just so happened that he could take advantage of this period to recover from his injuries slowly.


    Thus, he stayed in that position until nighttime.


    During that period, numerous new disciples visited the Scripture Pavilion, including Lin Ming and the others.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that there were a few people who had traveled with him before.


    The way they looked at him was already a little strange.


    On the other hand, the two people he was most familiar with, Lin Ming and Yin Ling, were not much different from before.


    Nonetheless, a sense of alienation was inevitable.


    In their opinion, if it was not for Zhou Feng, they should still have been able to keep half of their Blood Pills.


    ¡°It¡¯s almost time! It¡¯s time to go back!¡±


    After staying for so long, Zhou Feng felt that his injuries were almost healed.


    Hence, he planned to return to Courtyard No. 7.


    Now, even if someone wanted to attack him, he was confident that he could fight back!

 Chapter 11

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Time flowed like water¡­


    Zhou Feng had unknowingly joined Tri-Gu Sect for three months, and he had understood many things during this period.


    The first was the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s organization structure.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was directly divided into the outer and inner sects.


    There were countless small courtyards at the foot of Gu Mountain, but no one cared about them as they were a part of the outer sect. If the outer disciples wanted to receive guidance, they could only use the Strength Imparting Hall.


    The inner sect was located at the mountainside. As long as they reached the Qi Gathering realm, they would be able to attract the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy into their bodies and enter the inner sect.


    Moreover, only by entering the inner sect would they be able to learn the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s true cultivation techniques.


    All the outer disciples were collectively known as strongmen in the inner sect..


    The so-called strongmen were actually lackeys and slaves. Their ultimate purpose was only to provide resources for the sect.


    In the outer sect, one could only train their physical body and raise their Blood Qi. There was no chance to learn other cultivation techniques.


    There was also the fact that Mount Gu was not a mountain but a mountain range with a vast land surface.


    The Tri-Gu Sect occupied the entire mountain range, and they procured a large number of resources from it.


    These were all the pieces of information Zhou Feng had obtained during this period.


    Another morning¡­


    Zhou Feng woke up early.


    Today was another busy day because all the outer disciples had to work in order to obtain the resources to survive.


    Thus, he had woken up early in the morning to practice the Vajra Strength Fist a few times before feeding the Meat Gu.


    Speaking of which, during these three months, his progress could be considered fast.


    Under Gluttony¡¯s passive support, he could always obtain extra Blood Qi to feed the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    Now, he was already at the 6th Layer of Body Tempering realm and was about to start refining his lungs.


    Zhou Feng took a deep breath and slowly took a stance.


    The next second, his fist was like a dragon, as the air around him cracked.


    The Blood Qi in his body followed his movements and began to circulate in a special way.


    Soon, threads of hot air rose. This was the heat that was emitted from the circulation of the Blood Qi.


    During this process, some of the minute parts of his body were permeated by the Blood Qi. At the same time, they were strengthened, and the blocked meridians were slowly opened up again.


    After a long circulation, Zhou Feng slowly exhaled.


    The Blood Qi circulation slowly stopped, and large amounts of Blood Qi flowed back to his heart.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his heart also started to turn into a demon, absorbing his Blood Qi.


    ¡®This is really troublesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s good mood disappeared upon feeling that his Blood Qi was flowing away.


    At this time, he finally understood how important the Blood Pill was.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu was like a Pixiu, it could enter the body but never leave. Moreover, it had a fixed feeding time every day, just like an alarm clock.


    Even with Gluttony (Passive), he almost couldn¡¯t afford to feed this vampire.


    And the most exaggerated thing was that every time his realm increased, the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s demand would increase by a level.


    This caused many outer disciples not to dare to break through. They could only work hard to accumulate resources and Blood Pills.


    Only when they gathered enough Blood Pills would they dare to break through.


    It was also because of this that people from Courtyard No. 7 had isolated Zhou Feng.


    Back then, because of his confrontation with Xiong Dan, almost all the people from Courtyard No. 7 had been robbed of their Blood Pills.


    Although the unspoken rule was that one person could only snatch 10 Blood Pills, Xiong Dan simply had not followed the rules.


    No one dared to question his action anyway.


    Not to mention that Xiong Dan had officially become an inner disciple a month ago.


    Furthermore, an Elder had really accepted him as their disciple.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng did not feel the slightest hint of guilt.


    It was not his fault, after all. Xiong Dan had bullied these people, yet none of them dared to seek revenge against Xiong Dan. They only dared to secretly create some sort of isolation here.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not care at all.


    ¡°Have you heard? Lin Ming agreed to become a female inner disciple¡¯s lackey!¡±


    ¡°You¡¯ve heard it too? I heard that this female inner disciple is very famous and has many lackeys!¡±


    ¡°Really? If that¡¯s the case, Lin Ming shouldn¡¯t be worried about Blood Pills, right?¡±


    ¡°Yeah! It¡¯s a pity that I don¡¯t have a handsome face!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just as he returned to the courtyard to wash up, Zhou Feng heard someone talking about Lin Ming.


    He did not expect Lin Ming to lower his head and directly become someone else¡¯s lackey.


    Previously, because Yin Ling¡¯s Blood Pills had been snatched, her Bloodthirsty Gu had almost sucked her dry. Thus, she ended up selling her body and seemed to follow a senior outer disciple.


    Other than that, many people had died unnatural deaths.


    Some had been sucked dry by their Bloodthirsty Gu at night, some had accidents while feeding the Meat Gu, and some had mysteriously gone missing.


    All these things caused Zhou Feng¡¯s pressure to increase.


    For some reason, his right eyelid had been twitching recently, as if danger was about to descend.


    ¡®Luckily, I still have the skill panel!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng looked at the skill panel and heaved a sigh of relief because the progress bar on the skill panel was already full.


    However, he did not rush to draw passive skills.


    This was because after he had found that the progress bar was full, it continued to increase. This was something he had discovered by accident.


    Even if the progress bar on the skill panel was full, it would continue to increase.


    What¡¯s more, with every increase, the color of the progress bar would change a little¡ªfrom white, green, blue to the golden color that was about to be completed.


    Zhou Feng had instantly understood what such a color change represented.


    Wasn¡¯t this color representing the quality of the skill!?


    The rarity of the passive skills in the game that Zhou Feng had been playing before transmigrating was also determined by this color.


    Hence, in order to obtain a Gold passive skill, Zhou Feng had forced himself to hold back for almost three months, watching the progress bar change color every day.


    Now, the progress bar was finally about to turn completely gold.


    According to this speed, he would be able to obtain a Gold passive skill by noon.


    ¡®It¡¯s better to hurry up and feed the Meat Gu! Otherwise, it¡¯ll be too late!¡¯


    Feeding the Meat Gu was a sect mission that most outer disciples chose.


    It was also Zhou Feng¡¯s main method of earning Blood Pills.


    The so-called Meat Gu was actually a special Gu the sect cultivated. It could swallow all kinds of things to grow, and it could increase in size as well. Even if one cut off a chunk of its flesh, it would rapidly regrow as long as there was enough food.


    The Meat Gu¡¯s meat was also the main raw material to refine the Blood Pill.


    In other words, the Meat Gu was akin to a cow that could continuously produce meat.


    The Tri-Gu Sect could afford to raise so many outer disciples because they had control over the Meat Gu.


    However, feeding the Meat Gu was also a very dangerous thing.


    As a consequence of constantly cutting off chunks of its flesh, the Meat Gu was very irritable. If the disciples were not careful, they would be swallowed when they fed the Meat Gu.


    And after they were swallowed, no one would pity them. The sect would simply put someone else to feed the Meat Gu.


    As long as one hadn¡¯t reached the Qi Gathering realm, feeding the Meat Gu would be extremely risky.


    If Zhou Feng had a choice, he wouldn¡¯t have chosen to feed the Meat Gu.


    Unfortunately, he had no choice because of his Gluttony (Passive). He starved faster than others.


    There was also the Bloodthirsty Gu, this vampire.


    If he didn¡¯t feed the Meat Gu, he wouldn¡¯t be able to survive.

 Chapter 12

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng had long realized that the Tri-Gu Sect seemed to have directly restricted the new disciples¡¯ lifestyle.


    After entering the Tri-Gu Sect, there was basically no chance to interact with the outside world.


    Even if one wanted to go out, it was impossible.


    The scope of their life was also limited to this mountain range, and the resources that would allow them to live could only be obtained from the sect.


    Under such circumstances, other than completing the sect¡¯s various missions, there was no other choice.


    The more Zhou Feng understood, the more he felt that the Tri-Gu Sect raised all its disciples like pigs. He even speculated that the so-called inner disciples¡¯ fate was the same.


    Ever since Zhou Feng had started feeding the Meat Gu, he had also started scouting.


    If he wanted to escape, the first thing he had to do was to be familiar with the surrounding environment..


    Therefore, apart from cultivating and feeding the Meat Gu, he also took some time to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment.


    The scouting¡¯s result was very surprising.


    Other than the patrolling disciples on the first level, there were almost no restrictions on the outside.


    Mount Gu was vast, and there were plants and poisonous insects everywhere. If he really went into the ravine¡­ who would be able to find him?


    But why had he never heard of anyone successfully leaving the Tri-Gu Sect?


    After thinking about it, Zhou Feng felt that the key point was the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body.


    Every time he tried to leave Mount Gu, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body would become restless. When he returned to Mount Gu, the Bloodthirsty Gu would calm down.


    He guessed that the Tri-Gu Sect was able to raise its disciples in such a way¡ªand simultaneously, they were not afraid of their disciples harboring evil intentions¡ªbecause of an important factor, the Gu in their bodies.


    It was said that the Tri-Gu Sect used three kinds of Gu to establish the sect, but in reality, their research on Gu was already very thorough.


    The above-mentioned Meat Gu was such an example. They only needed to feed it a large amount of coarse fodder every day, and they would obtain chunks of meat that were full of Blood Qi in return.


    Moreover, this Meat Gu seemed to be divided into grades. The highest grade Meat Gu had to feed on demon beast meat every day.


    Naturally, the meat it produced was also of the highest quality, which was very beneficial to cultivation.


    For a sect that was so proficient in Gu, what method should one use to get rid of the Gu worms planted in their bodies?


    This question gave Zhou Feng a huge headache.


    Using Gu to control their disciples was the fruit of the labor of more than ten generations of the sect¡¯s research.


    Zhou Feng was alone. How could this be compared?


    If he relied solely on his own intelligence, he would definitely not have much hope. After all, he was not a person with exceptional intelligence.


    It seemed that this last hope still depended on the skill panel.


    He thought about how to break out of this dead-end while hurrying on his way.


    Not long after, he arrived at the place where the Meat Gu was being fed.


    This was a very dark cave, and many 9th Layer of Body Tempering outer disciples were guarding outside.


    An inner disciple was in the innermost part, guarding against the Meat Gu¡¯s rampage.


    This cave did not have a name, only a code name.


    The cave Zhou Feng was working in had a code name of #23. In other words, there were at least 23 such caves in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Moreover, there was only a low-level Meat Gu here, so it was hard to imagine how deep the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s foundation was.


    As usual, Zhou Feng lowered his head and walked into the cave.


    As soon as he entered the cave, Old Wan reminded him. ¡°Be careful! It seems to be a little irritable today!¡±


    Old Wan was also the person in charge of feeding the Meat Gu, but he was only in charge of providing the fodder.


    Zhou Feng was in charge of the most dangerous part, sending the fodder into the deepest part of the cave.


    Every feeding mission was done in pairs.


    Old Wan and he cooperated very well, completing the feeding mission swiftly each time. Thus, the two of them had developed a tacit understanding and a trace of friendship.


    If Zhou Feng died accidentally, it would be very troublesome to find another co-worker who had a tacit understanding.


    It was also because of this that Old Wan reminded him.


    ¡°Got it!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression turned slightly solemn upon hearing that.


    Since the Meat Gu was irritable, it meant that it could eat people at any time.


    Under normal circumstances, the Meat Gu would be more lenient toward the person who was feeding it. At most, it would just play with them.


    It would not directly swallow the person who was feeding it. If it swallowed a person every time it was fed, the Tri-Gu Sect would not have so many outer disciples for the Meat Gu to swallow.


    Of course, it was unavoidable to be injured all over.


    This might be very painful for others because every injury would cause their cultivation speed to decrease.


    Moreover, if there were too many injuries, some hidden injuries would pile up.


    When the time came, it would be even more troublesome if they all erupted together.


    However, Zhou Feng was different. Thanks to his Old Skin (Passive) and his Self-Healing Constitution (Passive), he was almost not afraid of getting injured. In truth, getting injured was beneficial to him.


    After continuously getting injured and triggering Old Skin¡¯s passive ability, Zhou Feng had lost count of how many points had been added to his Defense.


    The most obvious sign was that his skin was getting rougher and rougher.


    Originally, his skin couldn¡¯t be said to be smooth or rough.


    But now, it was black and rough. After a while, he even suspected that his skin would really turn into old tree bark.


    Of course, this change had to do with his defense.


    Zhou Feng had used some simple sword and knife tests. Even if he used force, his skin couldn¡¯t be cut; only a white mark would be left.


    He did not know if this kind of defense was considered invulnerable.


    In any case, he had a little more confidence in his survival ability.


    ¡®I should be fine! After all, I still have my own defense!¡¯ Zhou Feng cheered himself up in his heart.


    Next, he pushed the wheelbarrow full of fodder toward the depths of the cave.


    The Meat Gu did not allow two people to be present every time it ate, so only one person could feed it at a time.


    If two people could cooperate with each other, the difficulty of this feeding mission would be reduced by a lot. After all, the Meat Gu was fixed and could not move.


    Zhou Feng sighed and then started today¡¯s mission.


    The cave was deep and dark, almost pitch black ahead.


    Only after a long distance did two oil lamps give off a flickering flame.


    One could feel a huge psychological pressure just by walking on this path.


    The cave was very deep, so one had to walk a long way every time.


    Sometimes, feeding the Meat Gu once was not enough, and they would have to feed it at least two to three times.


    Hence, this was also a very physically demanding job.


    ¡°We¡¯re here!¡±


    The dark environment was suddenly replaced by bright light.


    Zhou Feng was very familiar with the way, so he took light steps.


    He took a look inside and saw a giant creature that looked like a caterpillar sitting in the middle.


    This strange creature looked as if pieces of meat, membranes, blood vessels, and other things were entangled together.


    There were also rings of dense teeth near the head and four tentacles on the eye teeth, constantly waving.


    Other than that, the most disgusting part was the bright red sarcoma on the back, which was throbbing.


    The sarcoma was still bleeding, and there were traces of black blood on the ground.

 Chapter 13

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®This is the meat that was cut off today?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the missing lump on the Meat Gu¡¯s back and instantly realized why the Meat Gu was so irritable today.


    It turned out that they had already harvested the Meat Gu¡¯s flesh.


    As mentioned earlier, the Meat Gu had all sorts of special characteristics. Thus, it was raised like a meat pig.


    Normally, the warts on the back of this Meat Gu could be said to be huge. It was like the crown of a tree, growing densely on the back.


    But now, it was cut in half, the bleeding had yet to stop, and it had not received treatment.


    In any case, the Meat Gu¡¯s self-healing ability was powerful, and its injuries would completely recover as long as it ate a few more meals.


    Zhou Feng looked at the chains on the Meat Gu¡¯s body carefully and found that the two thick chains were still piercing through the Meat Gu¡¯s body, while the fixed pillars were still intact..


    He relaxed slightly upon seeing this. As long as the chains were still there, it did not spell certain death even if there was danger.


    ¡®It¡¯s a pity that I did not learn any footwork. Otherwise, I would not have to spend so much effort!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could not help but mock himself.


    The treatment the outer Tri-Gu disciples received could be described as terrifying.


    Not only were they controlled by Gu, but they were also forced to do all sorts of labor. They didn¡¯t even have any cultivation techniques.


    As for the Cultivation Imparting Hall, he had already inquired about it.


    Listening to a lecture required Sect Contribution Points, but the outer disciples simply couldn¡¯t get any Sect Contribution Points. Therefore, the Cultivation Imparting Hall was nothing more than a decoration to them.


    This was equivalent to forcing all the outer disciples to speed through the Body Tempering realm and successfully break through to the Qi Gathering realm.


    This was because only in this way could the outer disciples have a chance of surviving.


    Of course, this was not without any hope.


    In addition, there was another path, and that was to become the inner disciples¡¯ slaves, strongmen, masked chieftains, and so on.


    As long as there was an inner disciple¡¯s guarantee, they would be able to get rid of the outer disciple¡¯s restrictions and enter the mountainside market.


    It was said that the Tri-Gu Sect had established two markets on the mountainside.


    These markets were specially used to welcome all kinds of cultivators and were used to exchange resources.


    It could be said that the environment Zhou Feng was currently in was like a prison. Other than working and cultivating, there was nothing else he could do.


    This was because he had not interacted with anyone in the past few months. Thus, he could only relieve the loneliness in his heart by cursing in his heart.


    After cursing, he started working!


    Zhou Feng grabbed a sack and slowly walked toward the Meat Gu.


    A special chain pierced through this Meat Gu¡¯s body and firmly fixed it in the middle, so he had to deliver the fodder personally to the Meat Gu¡¯s mouth.


    This was also the most dangerous step. Even though the Meat Gu¡¯s body could not move, it still had four thick, tough, and extremely fast tentacles.


    The Meat Gu¡¯s flesh had just been cut off, so it was in an irritable state.


    If the feeder was caught by accident, the outcome would be simple¡ªthey would be directly sent into the Meat Gu¡¯s mouth.


    Speaking of this, someone might have to ask: why not throw the fodder far away and let the Meat Gu pick it up with its tentacles to eat?


    Zhou Feng had already tried this method when he first fed it.


    Unfortunately, it did not work.


    If you threw the fodder directly, the Meat Gu would not eat it at all. You had to personally lift it up and bring it to this lazy fellow¡¯s mouth before eating it.


    ¡°Come! Eat it quickly! It will heal after eating it!¡± Zhou Feng softly tried to comfort the Meat Gu before gently bringing the fodder to its mouth.


    Suddenly, one of the tentacles moved, and the sound of the air being torn echoed.


    Zhou Feng had been vigilant, so he immediately threw away the fodder in his hand and retreated.


    The Meat Gu let out an ear-piercing sound, and the lump of flesh on its body started to shake.


    Even the lump of flesh on its back started to spurt out blood and pus.


    This scene was so disgusting that it gave people goosebumps.


    Zhou Feng did not continue to move but waited for the Meat Gu to slowly calm down.


    Only when the Meat Gu completely calmed down did he continue to feed it.


    This process required patience and reaction.


    Fortunately, because of the series of feeding exercises earlier, he was very familiar with it.


    The entire feeding process was thrilling but not dangerous, and today¡¯s mission could be considered to have been completed.


    After completing the mission, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body fell to the ground.


    It was really challenging to feed the Meat Gu during its irritable state. If this was any other time, he would have already completed the mission.


    ¡®The progress bar should be full! Let me see what passive skill I can draw this time!¡¯


    Zhou Feng directly opened the skill panel.


    For the sake of a good passive skill, he had had to hold it in for three months.


    Considering his current predicament, trading five or six useless low-level passive skills for this one was worth the gamble.


    If he could obtain a strong passive skill¡ªno matter what type it was¡ªit would help him escape from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Looking at the golden progress bar, he chose to draw directly.


    [Drawing¡­]


    Battle Instinct: Battle is like your instinct! In battle, your body will always make the right choice at the first moment.


    ¡®This is¡­ a combat-type passive! It¡¯s a Gold combat-type passive skill!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened.


    This was the first time he had drawn a battle-type passive skill.


    The previous few passive skills were mostly growth-type and support-type.


    Right now, he was in dire need of a passive combat-type skill because such a skill could instantly increase his battle prowess.


    Battle Instinct?


    He carefully read the description of this skill.


    ¡®It feels a little powerful!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the description of the skill and felt what changes his body had undergone.


    ¡®Eh? This is really a little different.¡¯


    He felt that his body was becoming lighter, and no matter his posture, he could keep his body in the best condition.


    With every breath, there was a sense of rhythm.


    Just like instinct, his pace, breathing rhythm, and strength had all changed.


    This had directly become an instinct. If one did not compare carefully, they would not be able to notice such a subtle change.


    It was too unbelievable! This was really too unbelievable!


    After such a change, Zhou Feng could not help but perform a set of Vajra Strength Fists on the spot.


    Zhou Feng now performed the somewhat heavy Vajra Strength Fist without any hindrance like in the past.


    It was soft, silky, and smooth, like flowing clouds and flowing water.


    This feeling was akin to an ordinary person becoming a martial artist, who had been practicing martial arts for 20 years, in one night.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s greatest disadvantage was that he had never practiced martial arts before.


    One had to know that people in this world had basically been practicing martial arts since they were young.


    Because of the environment, it was too difficult to live without practicing martial arts.


    Therefore, in terms of foundation, he had always been inferior to other people.


    However, this Battle Instinct (Passive) directly made up for this shortcoming.


    It was the equivalent of tamping down the foundation, and he didn¡¯t believe that this Gold passive skill had only this effect.


    There must be some other effect that he hadn¡¯t discovered yet.

 Chapter 14

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After resting for a while, Zhou Feng prepared to collect his Blood Pill.


    This feeding task was to settle the labor according to the number of times the Meat Gu was fed.


    And it was settled on the same day. It would never be delayed until the next day.


    It was said that because there was once a delay in labor, the monthly payment system was changed to the daily payment.


    At the same time, if the number was found to be wrong, it had to be clarified on the same day.


    If one tried to do it the next day, no one would care even if the number was not right.


    Zhou Feng had suffered a loss before, so he became smarter after that.


    In such a cruel environment like the Tri-Gu Sect, it was not uncommon for people to pocket money and deceive their superiors and subordinates..


    Everyone was working hard for the Blood Pills and fighting for their own cultivation resources.


    When Zhou Feng walked out of the narrow and long passage, he met Old Wan.


    Old Wan¡¯s brows were furrowed, and his expression didn¡¯t seem right.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? What happened?¡± Zhou Feng asked casually.


    ¡°Trouble! We have a new steward here!¡± Old Wan¡¯s expression was solemn.


    The previous steward had left, so a new steward came to fill this post.


    Meanwhile, this new steward did not acknowledge the tasks they had completed today.


    To put it simply, he refused to give them what they were owed.


    At the same time, the reward for all the feeding missions would be halved from tomorrow onwards.


    Originally, based on Zhou Feng¡¯s work, he would get a Blood Pill every time he fed a Meat Gu.


    There would be 30 Blood Pills in a month, plus the monthly salary.


    Zhou Feng was living well. Not only did he not need to worry about his Blood Qi being absorbed by the Bloodthirsty Gu, but he could also split a large amount of Blood Qi to cultivate. In addition, he had more Blood Qi to use due to Gluttony.


    The reason he could break through to the 6th Layer of Body Tempering realm in such a short period was that he had a large amount of Blood Qi to squander.


    There was no bottleneck at the Body Tempering realm, so anyone could slowly grind their way up as long as they had sufficient Blood Qi.


    Hence, once 30 Blood Pills turned into 15, it meant that his cultivation speed would slow down.


    ¡°As expected, he still came?¡±


    He had already anticipated this in his heart.


    Even if one kept a low profile in a sect like the Tri-Gu Sect, they would still encounter countless conflicts.


    This was because the sect¡¯s resources were limited, and it was impossible to supply all the disciples. Or, even if there were enough resources, they would not supply all the disciples.


    Everyone was in a cage, and in order to survive, everything had to be fought over.


    Zhou Feng had already encountered several conflicts in the past few months.


    The first conflict had been on the first night he entered Mount Gu.


    Xiong Dan had almost snatched all the Blood Pills of the people of Courtyard No.7.


    As for Zhou Feng, he had had quite a few left and had still been in a critical condition.


    That night, two people had sneakily stayed outside his room.


    He had directly beaten those two people until they were seriously injured, and no one dared to do so after that.


    The outcome, however, was that the entire Courtyard No.7 had isolated him.


    Nonetheless, ever since he had learned about the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s cruelty, he had been making mental preparations for himself.


    This was no longer the peaceful era of his previous life.


    ¡°Where is the new steward?¡± Zhou Feng asked calmly.


    Old Wan looked at him quietly. ¡°In the fodder warehouse!¡±


    The cave where the Meat Gu was located was the deepest part of the cave and the place where the Meat Gu lived.


    There were also a few rooms on both sides, and one of them was a specialized fodder warehouse.


    Old Wan¡¯s job was to collect enough fodder on a daily basis and put it into the warehouse.


    The new steward was now counting the number of fodder in the warehouse.


    ¡°Fodder warehouse?¡±


    Upon hearing this, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say anything more. Instead, he silently walked to the warehouse.


    Not long after, Zhou Feng walked into the fodder warehouse while Old Wan followed far behind.


    ¡°Hurry up! Put these things into the carriage! Prepare to transport them away!¡±


    A somewhat harsh voice resounded continuously.


    A fierce-looking person was commanding a few people to transport the fodder in the warehouse into the carriage.


    Zhou Feng took a look and realized that those who were carrying the things should be ordinary strongmen.


    Strongmen was also a job that many outer disciples chose.


    In short, they had to do all kinds of miscellaneous work, and the pay was calculated according to the treatment given by different employers.


    These people should be strongmen hired on a temporary basis.


    ¡®Why do I feel that they are quite weak?¡¯


    Zhou Feng observed the new steward at the side and suddenly realized that he did not seem to have much strength.


    His Blood Qi was really too superficial. Compared to the previous steward, it was too different.


    ¡°Hey! Who are you? What are you doing here!¡±


    Zhao Jun also noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s figure at this time, so he immediately shouted. He seemed to be used to being arrogant, and his eyes revealed a trace of arrogance.


    When he looked at Zhou Feng, it was as if he was looking at a pig or dog.


    ¡®Attack!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not have any intention of forcing him. After observing that the opponent was not his match, he immediately chose to attack.


    ¡°You¡ª¡±


    Zhao Jun wanted to say something.


    However, Zhou Feng sprinted and instantly pulled the distance between the two sides.


    At the same time, he took a handful of fine sand out of a cloth bag at the side and waved it.


    ¡°Ah! My eyes!¡±


    Zhao Jun did not believe that someone would dare to attack him, so he was not very vigilant. After all, he was one of Young Master Zhao Wu¡¯s men. Even in the market on the mountainside, no one would dare to attack him for no reason.


    ¡°Is that bag filled with soil?¡±


    Old Wan, who had been observing from afar, almost dropped his jaw when he witnessed Zhou Feng¡¯s actions.


    That was because Old Wan had noticed that Zhou Feng had a small cloth bag tied to his waist, but he didn¡¯t know what was inside.


    He didn¡¯t dare to ask casually. After all, although the two of them had developed a tacit understanding, they hadn¡¯t known each other for long.


    He didn¡¯t expect that the small bag was actually filled with sand meant for sneak attacks.


    That¡¯s right! In order to prevent all kinds of accidents, Zhou Feng had tried to get himself all kinds of weapons.


    But for various reasons, he hadn¡¯t succeeded.


    There were no shops here, and the resources that he could get were nothing but food and clothes.


    Getting a weapon was as difficult as climbing to the sky.


    He couldn¡¯t even get lime, so in the end, he could only settle for the second-best and prepared a bag of sand.


    He had carefully selected the sand, and it was very fine.


    If he suddenly threw it, the opponent would definitely be blinded for a period if they weren¡¯t prepared.


    The sand had blinded Zhao Jun¡¯s eyes, so Zhou Feng¡¯s punch landed squarely on his head.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhao Jun let out a scream and landed on the ground.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t stop at that moment. Instead, he grabbed Zhao Jun¡¯s hands.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death! Don¡¯t you know that I¡¯m¡ª


    The crisp sound of bones breaking echoed.


    ¡°Ah! Young Master Zhao won¡¯t¡ª¡±


    Zhou Feng struck him again.

 Chapter 15

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    As long as Zhao Jun said a word, Zhou Feng would strike again.


    Zhao Jun¡¯s hands were twisted and broken to ensure that no accidents would happen within a short period.


    At this time, Zhou Feng also experienced Battle Instinct¡¯s terror.


    Zhao Jun clearly resisted a few times, and it was extremely secretive. He had an arrogant and defiant look on his face while covertly exerting force, intending to overturn Zhou Feng, who was pressing down on him.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng keenly noticed all of this. He didn¡¯t even need to think; his body acted according to instinct.


    Zhao Jun¡¯s resistance was dissolved in an instant. The two broken hands were also the result of Zhao Jun¡¯s resistance.


    After doing all this, even Zhou Feng himself was a little surprised..


    Could he say that his actions just now were all performed subconsciously?


    No one knew what Zhou Feng was thinking, but the surrounding strongmen, including Old Wan, were all frightened by this brutal scene.


    He had broken Zhao Jun¡¯s hands without uttering a single word.


    This was enough to send chills down everyone¡¯s backs.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s face had always been in a state of facial paralysis. This was so that others would not know what he was thinking.


    He deliberately made himself look like he had always been in a state of facial paralysis.


    After pretending for a long time, he really seemed to have become a person with facial paralysis. There was no expression on his face at all.


    The combination of facial paralysis and that extremely brutal performance really made people feel a trace of fear.


    ¡°I ask, you answer!¡±


    Seeing that Zhao Jun did not resist and did not say anything, Zhou Feng began to ask.


    ¡°You don¡¯t want to pay us for today¡¯s work?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately told him the reason he did this.


    ¡°You! This is Young Master Zhao Wu¡¯s¡­¡±


    Zhao Jun also understood why he was attacked.


    Even under such circumstances, Zhao Jun was still very arrogant because he was helping Young Master Zhao Wu, an inner disciple.


    He had successfully broken through to the Qi Gathering realm not long ago and had even become an Elder¡¯s disciple.


    After becoming an inner disciple, he naturally had to take a piece of the cake known as the outer sect.


    This was also the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s unspoken rule.


    Compared to the outer sect, the competition between inner disciples could be said to be more intense.


    Becoming an inner disciple meant that the Bloodthirsty Gu or the Penta-Poison Gu had undergone a transformation in one¡¯s body.


    After the transformation, the Gu devour each other.


    In other words, as long as you became an inner disciple, it didn¡¯t matter if you were willing or not.


    You had already become a hunter and prey at the same time. If you wanted to survive, you had to continuously defeat your opponents and devour their Gu.


    Then, you had to climb up step by step and eventually become a core disciple.


    Unfortunately, becoming a core disciple was not enough either. If you wanted to truly free yourself from the fate of being controlled by others, you needed to become an Elder.


    As long as you became an Elder, you could live at the peak of Mount Gu and overlook everything below.


    Thus, the Tri-Gu Sec¡¯s structure was like a pyramid.


    The bottom level provided nutrients continuously, always supporting the upper level.


    The word ¡®struggle¡¯ ran through the lives of all the Tri-Gu disciples.


    The inner sect exploited the outer disciples, and the core disciples exploited the inner sect.


    The Elders exploited the core disciples, and the Sect Leader exploited the entire sect.


    If the Tri-Gu Sect was compared to a huge place to raise Gu, then the Sect Leader would be the ultimate Gu King!


    Zhao Jun was the subordinate Zhao Wu had sent to collect resources.


    Obviously, as a newly advanced inner disciple, the resources that Zhao Wu controlled were too little. He had even sent people to the outer sect to openly snatch their resources.


    The fodder that was prepared to be moved away would probably be directly used to fill one¡¯s own pockets.


    Then, it would be forcefully distributed to Zhou Feng, Old Wan, and the others.


    ¡°Answer my questions!¡±


    Seeing that Zhao Jun did not answer the question, Zhou Feng punched him.


    The hard fist directly hit Zhao Jun¡¯s face, and that somewhat mean face instantly became red and swollen.


    At that moment, Zhao Jun finally understood.


    This kid in front of him did not know Zhao Wu at all, and he was not afraid of the inner disciples.


    Threats from inner disciples? If it were anyone else, they might be a little afraid.


    After all, it would be very easy if an inner disciple wanted to mess with an outer disciple.


    One must know that there was almost no supervision in the entire outer sect.


    For example, Zhao Jun was blatantly embezzling and directly transferred the resources of this Meat Gu cave away.


    Even if Zhou Feng wanted to report it, there was no place to do so.


    The higher-ups only cared about the numbers. As long as the target of this Meat Gu cave was not met, they would punish all of them.


    Thus, inner disciples could enter the outer sect and bully the weak.


    However, Zhou Feng did not think too much about it.


    If he compromised this time, it would be equivalent to a slow death.


    So why did he have to compromise? Would a mere title make him cower? That was absolutely impossible!


    ¡°Are you going to give me today¡¯s reward or not?¡±


    It was the same question again.


    ¡°Yes! I¡¯ll give it to you immediately!¡±


    Zhao Jun admitted defeat very quickly this time. There was even a fawning smile on his face, from arrogance to an apologetic smile.


    The change in his behavior was almost seamless. There was no awkwardness or discomfort at all.


    The flattery in his eyes simply could not be hidden.


    Although there were no flaws on the surface, Zhou Feng¡¯s instincts kept reminding him: the person in front of him had better be killed on the spot, or it would be too dangerous.


    This was Battle Instinct¡¯s intuition.


    Zhou Feng suddenly fell silent and slowly clenched his right fist.


    As if sensing that something was not right, cold sweat broke out on Zhao Jun¡¯s back.


    ¡°Wait a minute! I have something good here!¡±


    In a moment of desperation, Zhao Jun gnashed his teeth and prepared to give his treasure away to save his life.


    Originally, he was prepared to give this thing to Young Master Zhao Wu, but he couldn¡¯t care less now. He had to save his life first.


    ¡°Something good?¡± Zhou Feng¡¯s whole body relaxed.


    ¡°Yes! It¡¯s in my belt!¡± Zhao Jun decided to suffer such a loss in order to save his life.


    Zhou Feng searched around briefly and found a Blood Cicada Jade Pendant inside Zhao Jun¡¯s belt.


    This Blood Cicada Jade Pendant was dark red in color, but it gave off an extremely warm feeling.


    After touching the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant, the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body actually stirred slightly.


    Even the dormant Bloodthirsty Gu moved slightly.


    ¡°This is really good stuff!¡±


    Just by touching it, Zhou Feng could tell it was definitely a good item. The Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s reaction was a testament.


    When Zhou Feng took away the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant, Zhao Jun¡¯s eyes flashed with a trace of hatred.


    ¡®You are dead meat! Damn commoner! How dare you snatch Young Master Zhao Wu¡¯s things!?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhao Jun decided that he would immediately head to the mountainside to look for Zhao Wu for reinforcements after dealing with this obstacle.


    At that time, he would capture this commoner and torture him for seven days.


    Finally, he would cut off his five limbs and put them into a spittoon to refine a human Gu.


    When Zhou Feng looked at Zhao Jun again, the latter¡¯s expression quickly changed. His face was full of flattery once again.

 Chapter 16

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°And today¡¯s remuneration!¡±


    Zhou Feng stored the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant and did not forget to ask for his remuneration.


    ¡°Of course! Of course!¡±


    Zhao Jun smiled apologetically as if he had been scared out of his wits.


    The strongmen that Zhao Jun had hired had no intention of coming up to help at all. After all, their remuneration was only so little.


    Want to help? Sorry, that would require additional rewards.


    As for the inner disciple stationed at Meat Gu Cave #23, he did not appear the entire time.


    Obviously, that inner disciple was too lazy to move for such a small matter.


    That was why the management style of the Tri-Gu Sect was extremely crude..


    It could be said that they could directly suppress everything with force, no matter what happened below.


    As long as he completed the higher-ups¡¯ mission, then any fight would be a small matter.


    Perhaps this was also part of raising Gu!


    ¡®Eh? Where¡¯s Old Wan?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had originally planned to help Old Wan collect his salary.


    But he suddenly realized that Old Wan, who had been watching from afar, had long disappeared.


    Obviously, an old fox like Old Wan had realized that something was wrong, so he immediately left.


    Unlike Zhou Feng, who was alone, Old Wan had many things to worry about.


    He didn¡¯t want to die yet. Offending an inner disciple was too difficult for Old Wan.


    Therefore, he had already left early to avoid being targeted.


    ¡°Okay! Then I won¡¯t bother you anymore!¡±


    Looking at the handful of Blood Pills, it was obvious that it was more than one day¡¯s salary.


    Zhou Feng did not pretend to be aloof and only took what belonged to him. Instead, he took them all. In such an environment, pretending to be aloof would only get him killed.


    After saying that, Zhou Feng took the things and left.


    ¡®This is troublesome! I can¡¯t stay in the courtyard anymore!¡¯


    As Zhou Feng walked, he started to analyze.


    He had offended the steward to death.


    Under normal circumstances, Zhao Jun would definitely go back and ask for help from the inner disciple.


    Furthermore, although Zhao Jun¡¯s killing intent had been well hidden, Zhou Feng was able to detect it through his Battle Instinct.


    If he did not do anything now¡­ then he would be simply waiting for death!


    Would he wait for death? It was obvious that it was impossible!


    ¡®I might as well not give up!¡¯


    After thinking about it, his killing intent gradually rose.


    Zhao Jun actually wanted to take his life, so why not strike first and gain the upper hand?


    Also, the best way to go against an inner disciple was to become an inner disciple as well.


    Anything below the Qi Gathering realm was purely a waste of time.


    As long as there were enough resources, Zhou Feng would be able to make a breakthrough very quickly.


    Then, how could he obtain more resources?


    Wasn¡¯t this obvious? Zhao Jun was collecting resources for Zhao Wu, an inner disciple. In the end, he would definitely bring the resources back to the inner sect.


    At that time, Zhou Feng would directly intercept and kill Zhao Jun!


    Firstly, he would earn some time, and Zhao Wu, who was in the inner sect, would be in the dark as to what had transpired.


    Secondly, the resources that Zhao Jun had collected would become his.


    As long as Zhou Feng broke through to the Qi Gathering realm before he was discovered, he would naturally have the ability to resist.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng planned to return to the courtyard first and pack up a few things. He was prepared to enter the forest and live for a period there after his plan succeeded.


    As mentioned earlier, the management of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s outer disciples was very lax.


    In the outer sect, you could do anything. You only needed to complete a roll call once a month.


    This was because, in the outer sect, almost all the living resources were monopolized by the sect.


    You want to enter the forest? No problem, how long can you stay without food and clothes?


    Secondly, you want to escape? That was even more impossible because as long as you were far away from this territory, the Gu in your body would become restless.


    It was precisely because of this that the sect would use such crude methods to manage the outer disciples.


    Hence, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t worried at all.


    He went back to take out all the meat jerky that he had accumulated.


    The meat jerky and the resources he had snatched from Zhao Jun should be enough for him to live in the mountain forest for more than ten days.


    And he planned to break through to the Qi Gathering realm within these ten days.


    Although this plan was a little difficult to implement, it was also the best plan that he could come up with at the moment.


    Anyway, if he continued to stay like this, he would die a slow death, so why not give it a try?


    After holding it in for three months, Zhou Feng felt like he was going crazy.


    The environment in the outer sect was too cruel.


    ¡®That new steward is injured, and even if he wants to leave, he won¡¯t do so at night! Just in time!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had grievously injured Zhao Jun, so even if the latter wanted to leave immediately, he wouldn¡¯t choose to leave tonight because Mount Gu was very dangerous at night.


    Once the patrolling disciples saw you, they would instantly capture you.


    Thus, Zhao Jun was most likely to leave in the morning.


    This gave Zhou Feng sufficient time to prepare. He could choose a path that led to the mountainside and ambush Zhao Jun.


    ¡­


    While Zhou Feng was secretly preparing for all this, Zhao Jun had just finished treating his injuries.


    ¡°Damn it! I actually wasted one of my Primeval Blood Pills! Damned b*stard!¡±


    Zhao Jun was cursing through gritted teeth in one of the Meat Gu cave¡¯s rooms.


    In order to quickly recover from his injuries, he had directly consumed a Primeval Blood Pill.


    The Primeval Blood Pill was an advanced version of the Blood Pill.


    In other words, the so-called Blood Pill was only a defective product produced when refining the Primeval Blood Pill.


    Compared to the Blood Pill, the Primeval Blood Pill not only contained more than ten times the Blood Qi, but it was also purer.


    While it could assist in cultivation, it could also nourish the whole body.


    When one was injured, it could also replace the Healing Pill and heal the injury.


    It could be said that the Primeval Blood Pill was the hard currency in the sect.


    Unfortunately, the Primeval Blood Pill was only circulated between inner disciples and above.


    It was almost impossible to find it in the outer sect.


    If Zhao Jun didn¡¯t want to quickly heal his injuries, he wouldn¡¯t be willing to use a Primeval Blood Pill.


    ¡°That person has already shown his killing intent toward me. It¡¯s too unsafe to continue staying here!¡±


    At this moment, Zhao Jun showed no trace of flattery when thinking of Zhou Feng.


    Obviously, to be able to become an inner disciple¡¯s lackey, no matter how stupid Zhao Jun was, he wasn¡¯t a mediocre person.


    After realizing that the situation was unfavorable, Zhao Jun planned to recover and sell all the resources he had collected.


    In fact, the outer sect could also get Primeval Blood Pills. After all, there were so many Meat Gu in the outer sect.


    And the Meat Gu was the raw material to refine Primeval Blood Pills. At the same time, there were many inner disciples stationed in the outer sect.


    There were even some high-level Meat Gu caves with Elders stationed outside them.


    These people also needed the assistance of the Primeval Blood Pill. Hence, if someone from the outer sect wanted to obtain Primeval Blood Pills, they could only obtain them through these people.


    Zhao Jun¡¯s current idea was to exchange the resources he had plundered at a low price, then bring the Blood Pills and Primeval Blood Pills back to the inner sect overnight.


    As long as he reached the inner sect, he could directly ask Young Master Zhao to take care of that b*stard!


    ¡®Wait to be turned into a human Gu!¡¯


    Zhao Jun¡¯s face gradually twisted as he was already imagining Zhou Feng being turned into a human Gu!

 Chapter 17

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng quickly returned to the courtyard and collected some of his personal belongings, the most important of which was food.


    To be honest, apart from food, there was nothing else.


    It was worth mentioning every time Zhou Feng returned to the courtyard, he would notice that there were fewer and fewer people.


    The courtyard he was in originally had dozens of people.


    But now, there were no more than a dozen people.


    A large portion of them had died from various causes, and a small portion had defected to many inner disciples.


    Especially those with handsome and beautiful faces, almost all of them had chosen to submit to inner disciples.


    Now, only a few with better talent were left, and some were waiting to die.


    How long had it been? It had only been a few months, and it had already become like this.


    Zhou Feng felt an even greater sense of urgency in his heart.


    ¡®No! I must first become an inner disciple! At least, an inner disciple can still have a sliver of security!¡¯


    The key to becoming an inner disciple was with Zhao Jun. He had to obtain sufficient resources from Zhao Jun.


    Only then could he quickly advance and reach the Qi Gathering realm.


    The Qi Gathering realm was actually relatively simple.


    Regarding the cultivation realms, the outer sect did not reveal too much about it.


    Zhou Feng had done his best to gather some information.


    At present, he only knew of two realms. One was the Body Tempering realm, and the other was the Qi Gathering realm.


    As the name implied, to advance to the Body Tempering realm, one had to strengthen the body and lay a good foundation. The only thing one had to do was to increase the strength of their body as much as possible, to the point where it could adapt to the violent Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi.


    On the other hand, if one wanted to advance to the Qi Gathering Realm, one would have to be capable of drawing a sliver of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into the body to form Spiritual Qi.


    Even if one hadn¡¯t reached the 9th Layer of Body Tempering realm, as long as they could draw Spiritual Qi into their body to form Spiritual Qi, they would be considered to have entered the Qi Gathering realm. This was because after one had possessed Spiritual Qi, they would be able to use many techniques.


    Zhou Feng had collected these pieces of information through his painstaking efforts.


    Therefore, when necessary, Zhou Feng planned to forcefully draw Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into his body.


    He was very confident in the strength of his body, after all.


    Thanks to Old Skin, his Defense would increase as long as he recovered from an injury.


    Moreover, this increase in Defense included all aspects, which improved his physical fitness.


    Compared to a normal person, his body was much stronger now.


    Even if the conditions didn¡¯t allow it, he still wanted to continuously injure himself and recover from his injuries.


    But under such circumstances, it was better not to follow through with such a suicidal plan because Old Skin¡¯s passivity could judge the degree of his injuries.


    The injury had to reach a certain degree before Old Skin could be triggered successfully.


    For example, some small scratches were not counted.


    Gluttony provided additional Blood Qi, Old Skin enhanced the overall defense, and Self-Healing Constitution could speed up the recovery of injuries.


    Finally, he had added Battle Instinct (Passive).


    The passive skills that Zhou Feng possessed directly formed a combat system. They complemented each other and continuously increased his strength.


    ¡®When the sky turns dark, I¡¯ll go and scout the location!¡¯


    In order to accurately intercept Zhao Jun, he planned to scout the location at night.


    First, he would scout out Zhao Jun¡¯s possible escape route.


    What Zhou Feng did not know was that because of his initiative to scout, he would coincidentally encounter Zhao Jun, who planned to escape overnight.


    This also laid the groundwork for advancing to the inner sect in the future.


    ¡­


    Night descended quietly.


    The bright sun slowly set in the west, and Mount Gu became quiet.


    Zhao Jun had worked hard this morning and finally managed to exchange all the collected resources for Blood Pills and Primeval Blood Pills.


    One had to know that Zhao Jun had stayed in the outer sect for a long time, so he had sold many things at a low price in order to exchange for Blood Pills and Primeval Blood Pills.


    Even so, Zhao Jun had quite a lot of resources on him.


    This was because Zhao Jun had also ruthlessly plundered the other Meat Gu caves.


    That¡¯s right! Zhao Jun had previously been a steward in other Meat Gu caves, and this was also an opportunity that Zhao Wu, an inner disciple, had won back.


    The management of these low-level Meat Gu caves in the outer sect was actually not arranged by the sect.


    Instead, it was obtained through the inner disciples¡¯ own struggles.


    The management arrangement was for the inner disciples to compete in martial arts, and the winner would obtain the management qualification of a Meat Gu cave.


    After one obtained the management qualification of a Meat Gu cave, they would only have three days of protection.


    When the three days passed, others could directly challenge you, and you were not allowed to refuse.


    It was precisely because of this that Zhao Jun had been a steward in many Meat Gu caves.


    This was possible only because the sect was implementing the policy of raising Gu.


    Every inner disciple continued to cultivate resources, and becoming the Meat Gu cave steward was the most convenient way to obtain resources.


    As long as you wanted to advance, you had to obtain the qualifications to be a steward of a few Meat Gu caves. Otherwise, you could only muddle along and wait for death, being surpassed by your peers, and eventually dying here.


    Raising Gu was not a joke in the entire Tri-Gu Sect.


    The battles between inner disciples were even more terrifying.


    Although Zhao Wu had just become an inner disciple, and his talent was shocking, he could only keep the position of steward of one Meat Gu cave at a time in the face of such intense competition.


    Thus, wherever Zhao Jun went, he would plunder the place like a swarm of locusts.


    When the protection period was over, Zhao Wu would take down the position of steward of another Meat Gu cave and let Zhao Jun continue to plunder.


    The benefits of each Meat Gu cave were directly divided into three parts, with the resident disciples, the sect, and the steward splitting the profits.


    The sect took up the majority of the profits, the resident disciples were next, and the stewards were last.


    The sect and the resident disciples naturally could not be provoked, so Zhao Jun could only attack the outer disciples who could not resist.


    He collected numerous resources by not giving them remuneration, monopolizing the sale of fodder, and selling the qualifications to feed the Meat Gu.


    One had to know that each Meat Gu cave did not only have one Meat Gu.


    Just the daily wages alone were quite a lot.


    However, the price for doing so was that, while Zhao Jun obtained large amounts of resources, he also let countless outer disciples die tragically.


    What was even more terrifying was that such a terrifying act was tacitly approved by the sect or even deliberately done.


    To the sect, the outer disciples were like other people¡¯s feed. If it wasn¡¯t enough, they could just take in a wave of outer disciples.


    Although Southern Border¡¯s environment was harsh, quite a number of people were living there.


    Just the territory the Tri-Gu Sect occupied alone included 36 large-scale villages and several hundred small villages.


    The so-called large-scale villages needed at least 20,000-30.000 people in order to be called large-scale villages.


    Only the cruelest environment could nurture the most outstanding Gu.


    This was also one of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s ideals.


    It was just sacrificing some fodder, not a big deal.


    If there were no accidents, Zhao Jun would be the same as before.


    After ruthlessly collecting the spoils, he would leave the mess to the others.


    And the new steward would definitely not take over the mess.


    In the end, he could only split the spoils evenly with the outer disciples in charge of this Meat Gu cave.


    It was unclear how many people would die by then. Anyway, this was already the norm.


    Unfortunately, Zhao Jun had met Zhou Feng this time.


    He had kicked the iron plate!

 Chapter 18

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Very good! It¡¯s almost time!¡±


    Zhao Jun finally stored a token in a small bag.


    This token was the key to his return to the inner sect, and this small bag was actually a storage bag.


    This was something that Zhao Wu had specially bought for Zhao Jun..


    After one became an inner disciple, even though the competition had become more intense, they could still enjoy some of the sect¡¯s benefits.


    First of all, there were channels to purchase things like pills and artifacts.


    For example, the space in the small storage bag in Zhao Jun¡¯s hand was only about 1 cubic meter in size.


    However, it was extremely difficult to obtain such an artifact. Only a few sects that specialized in supporting Artifact Refiners had the goods..


    Zhao Jun finished packing and silently walked out of the room, planning to return to the inner sect under the cover of the night.


    As for Zhou Feng, he had already started scouting. After a round of exploration, he discovered that there was only one way to the mountainside. The other places were basically filled with dense forests.


    And from Meat Gu Cave #23 to the mountainside, there was bound to be a road.


    Moreover, that road was right in the middle, and the patrolling disciples rarely went there.


    This was definitely an excellent ambush spot.


    ¡®Why don¡¯t I head back and sleep for a while?¡¯


    Zhou Feng slapped the mosquito on his arm to death and then considered whether he should return and sleep for a while.


    He had severely injured Zhao Jun, so he should not be able to move for a while.


    If Zhou Feng continued to stay there, he would only feed the mosquitoes.


    While he was thinking about this, a figure appeared from far away. This figure was particularly obvious under the moonlight.


    Zhou Feng immediately hid behind the trees upon seeing this and took a closer look.


    ¡®It¡¯s actually Zhao Jun? He recovered from his injuries so quickly?¡¯


    Zhao Jun did not seem to be injured at all. He was walking forward with his head lowered.


    ¡°Don¡¯t hesitate!¡±


    Because Zhao Jun had his head lowered, he walked hastily.


    He was about to slip away from Zhou Feng, so the latter could not continue to hesitate at this time.


    After saying that, Zhou Feng grabbed a fist-sized rock with his right hand while his left hand grabbed a handful of fine and dry sand.


    Sand attack!


    The fine sand once again blinded Zhao Jun¡¯s eyes.


    Naturally, this familiar move astonished Zhao Jun.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!?¡± That question had just risen in Zhao Jun¡¯s mind.


    A stone hit the back of his head¡ªa fatal blow!


    Zhou Feng did not dare to hold back at all, afraid that if his opponent did not faint, he would attract the attention of others.


    To be honest, Zhao Jun had never thought that someone would attack him. He had been under the impression that all his actions were flawless.


    After the conflict with Zhou Feng, he had immediately sold all his resources and did not go looking for trouble with Zhou Feng alone.


    Zhao Jun was very clear that the outer disciples were only the lowest level of slaves. As long as Young Master Zhao Wu made a move, Zhou Feng would not be able to escape.


    At the same time, Zhao Jun could survive in the Tri-Gu Sect because his boss had become stronger.


    Zhao Jun was well aware that this was a relationship of interest.


    After collecting all the resources from the outer sect and turning them into Blood Pills and Primeval Blood Pills, Zhao Jun had even run away at night.


    However, he never expected that he would fall for it!


    It was mainly because he had been caught off guard. Who would have thought that Zhou Feng would not sleep in the middle of the night!?


    To ambush him here, was there something wrong with his brain!?


    However, even though Zhao Jun was extremely unwilling, it was already too late.


    ¡°It went so smoothly!¡±


    To be honest, Zhou Feng could not believe it either. The whole process had been too smooth. He had been prepared for some setbacks, yet the entire process was very short.


    It could be said that Zhou Feng had succeeded in his surprise attack in less than 10 seconds.


    The use of a handful of sand and the subsequent stone attack instantly stupefied Zhao Ju.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s method was a little low-class, it was really effective.


    After being stunned for a second, he immediately dragged Zhao Jun into the forest. This was to avoid being discovered by the patrolling disciples.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng brought Zhao Jun all the way to a small cave he had found by chance when he was looking for an escape route.


    It was deep inside the dense forest, and many weeds were blocking the cave entrance.


    Zhou Feng had also transported some food here, planning to seclude himself here for eight to ten days.


    Zhou Feng had been a little too nervous along the way, so he didn¡¯t have time to check on Zhao Jun¡¯s condition.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Upon a closer look, Zhou Feng realized that he seemed to have used too much force.


    The back of Zhao Jun¡¯s head had already sunk in.


    Previously, he had been worried that he wouldn¡¯t be able to make him faint, but now it was no longer a question of whether this fellow had fainted or not.


    He had been instantly knocked to death!


    Facing the corpse in front of him, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know why he didn¡¯t feel much discomfort.


    It was probably because he had adapted!


    Zhou Feng had suffered quite a bit during the three months he had been in the outer sect.


    It was a mere corpse.


    One had to admit that a person¡¯s ability to adapt was really strong.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t bring anything? Impossible!¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to collect the things on Zhao Jun¡¯s body. The strange thing was that he had actually not collected anything!?


    Impossible! It was impossible that Zhao Jun had not brought anything!


    He had run away in the middle of the night without bringing anything with him? This didn¡¯t make sense!


    Soon, Zhou Feng found an exquisite little cloth bag.


    ¡°Could it be the legendary storage bag!?¡±


    Given his previous experience of reading fantasy novels, Zhou Feng directly made a reasonable guess.


    As expected, it was just as he thought.


    This was really a storage bag. He easily learned how to use this storage bag and found many pills and items in it.


    First, there were more than 10 bottles of Blood Pills, each bottle containing more than 10 Blood Pills.


    There were more than 100 Blood Pills alone, enough for him to use for a while.


    Next, there was a special medicine bottle that contained pills very similar to Blood Pills.


    When he took a whiff of their fragrance, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body started to move.


    Other than that, there was only food and clothing left.


    This was simply perfect! Cultivation resources, food, and clothing!


    Zhou Feng felt that he could stay in this cave for a long time.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! This world is like this!¡±


    Zhou Feng tied the storage bag to his waist and bowed to Zhao Jun¡¯s corpse. Then, he dug a hole and buried Zhao Jun.


    This was the way of the world, forcing him to make such a choice.


    After burying Zhao Jun, Zhou Feng felt a little hungry and casually put a piece of jerky into his mouth.


    As soon as the jerky entered his stomach, his stomach began to work, digesting everything like an incinerator.


    This was the passive trigger of Gluttony.


    Soon, traces of extra Blood Qi started to spread throughout his body from his tailbone.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu also moved when it sensed that and started absorbing large amounts of Blood Qi in his body.

 Chapter 19

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng now had enough resources, so he did not have to worry about the Bloodthirsty Gu sucking him dry. Thus, he could finally cultivate with all his strength.


    Zhou Feng directly swallowed a few Blood Pills, and his powerful stomach began to work.


    The Blood Pills that had just entered his stomach were quickly digested, turning into large amounts of Blood Qi.


    In fact, Zhou Feng had discovered something a long time ago.


    Gluttony was a passive state, and apart from digesting food, it could digest pills faster as well. At the same time, it could draw more medicinal power.


    The loss of medicinal power was a very normal phenomenon as it was impossible for everyone to absorb a pill¡¯s medicinal power completely.


    Given that everyone¡¯s physique was fundamentally different, the utilization rate of the medicinal power would also be different.


    Ever since Zhou Feng had acquired Gluttony, he felt that his stomach had turned into an incinerator. It could absorb almost all the medicinal efficacy without any damage.


    Moreover, it would also return Blood Qi. This was a bit amazing.


    In the beginning, when he had obtained Gluttony, he didn¡¯t think much of it.


    But now, it seemed that Gluttony¡¯s passive state was a bit amazing!


    A large amount of Blood Qi followed a fixed route, and Zhou Feng¡¯s body was further refined. As he coordinated the Blood Qi to refine his body, he started to perform the Vajra Strength Fist on the spot.


    This was also a method to help the Blood Qi circulate better.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng focused on his cultivation in the deep mountains.


    If he was thirsty, he would drink some mountain spring water.


    If he was hungry, he would eat some jerky.


    If he did not have enough Blood Qi, he would consume Blood Pills like crazy.


    In any case, he had Gluttony, so he would not suffer from indigestion even if he consumed Blood Pills like crazy.


    In the end, he consumed all the Blood Pills he had obtained from Zhao Jun.


    ¡°How many days has it been?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised at how quickly the cultivation resources were consumed.


    However, in contrast, his progress was also very fast.


    At present, the Blood Qi had already begun to enter his lungs. The last three stages of the Body Tempering realm were the tempering of the internal organs, which was also the most challenging step. After all, a person¡¯s internal organs were too fragile.


    If one was not careful, it would be very easy to get injured.


    In addition, Zhou Feng did not have any brilliant methods to train his internal organs. He could only cultivate according to the Vajra Strength Fist¡¯s crude methods.


    Naturally, his cultivation speed would slow down as long as the Blood Pills were not supplied.


    Not to mention that whenever he consumed a Blood Pill, the Bloodthirsty Gu would get a share.


    Moreover, ever since the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s last transformation, it had not provided reverse-feeding at all.


    It was simply a representation of eating without working for it.


    He could not do anything about it, but didn¡¯t he still have a few pills?


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t understand much about the Primeval Blood Pill, its appearance and the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s reaction made it apparent that it should also be a medicinal pill that increased Blood Qi.


    Thus, he directly picked up a few Primeval Blood Pills and swallowed them.


    If the inner disciples witnessed that scene, they would definitely shout, ¡°Prodigal son!¡±


    One had to know that this Primeval Blood Pill was not a Blood Pill that could be found everywhere.


    This was a pill that could assist in the cultivation of the Qi Gathering realm. Usually, when some inner disciples were cultivating, they would at most take one pill at a time.


    Moreover, it was not something that could be taken every day. Although this was only a pill that could temper the body and increase Blood Qi, it was not something that every inner disciple could afford.


    If Zhou Feng were to consume a few of these pills in one go, who knew how much medicinal power would be wasted!?


    It was simply a reckless waste of heaven¡¯s gifts!


    After a few Primeval Blood Pills were consumed, Zhou Feng¡¯s stomach instantly emitted a thunderous sound, as if a machine was operating at full power.


    Soon, a stream of violent Blood Qi began to spread wildly.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s skin seemed to be¡­ squirming!?


    Upon closer inspection, it turned out that numerous blood vessels under his skin were continuously expanding and contracting, constantly transporting the Blood Qi.


    From afar, it looked like countless worms were moving under his skin.


    The Blood Qi contained in the few Primeval Blood Pills was beyond Zhou Feng¡¯s imagination.


    This was the first time he felt like he was about to burst. Nevertheless, this feeling did not last for long.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu was overjoyed when it sensed so much Blood Qi.


    It jumped out and started to absorb it crazily, its absorption speed much faster than before.


    No! It could even be said to be more than ten times faster!


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    The Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s terrifying suction force almost sucked Zhou Feng dry.


    Large amounts of Blood Qi surged toward the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s location, but traces of purer Blood Qi flowed out of its body not long after.


    Compared to the vast and chaotic Blood Qi from before, the Blood Qi that flowed out of the Bloodthirsty Gu was purer.


    The effect on tempering the body was even more obvious.


    As the Blood Qi circulated throughout Zhou Feng¡¯s body, he felt a numbing sensation.


    Zhou Feng felt as if countless little bugs were gnawing his lungs.


    ¡°This is¡­ tempering my lungs? What speed!¡±


    He could feel that this pure Blood Qi was tempering his lungs, and the tempering speed was more than ten times faster than before.


    Was this the effect of the Bloodthirsty Gu?


    Although it had been devouring Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi previously, it played a crucial role at this time.


    No wonder all the outer disciples were not worried about whether they could break through to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering. Instead, they were only concerned about whether they could obtain enough Blood Pills.


    So that was the reason!


    As long as they had enough Blood Pills to feed the Bloodthirsty Gu, they could persevere until the Bloodthirsty Gu provided reverse-feeding.


    Then breaking through to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering was not a simple matter!


    The Gu Dao was fascinating!


    This was equivalent to pulling all the cultivators to the same starting line. No matter how talented one was, they could still cultivate to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering as long as they had enough resources.


    Of course, this applied only to the Body Tempering realm.


    Zhou Feng did not know much about the later cultivation realm.


    But even so, it was still very powerful!


    Just as Zhou Feng was lamenting, the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s reverse-feeding strength began to weaken because it did not have a large amount of Blood Qi to absorb.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu was naturally unwilling to part with its own Blood Qi.


    Zhou Feng immediately swallowed the remaining Primeval Blood Pills upon sensing the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s strength weakening!


    He planned to use this opportunity to reach the 9th Layer of Body Tempering and then attempt to draw Spiritual Qi.


    As long as he succeeded in drawing Spiritual Qi, he would be able to enter the inner sect. Entering the inner sect would be the time for his cultivation path to open officially!


    Along with the rumbling sound of his stomach, a large amount of Blood Qi was replenished.


    When the Bloodthirsty Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body sensed this, it unceremoniously absorbed a large portion of the Blood Qi and then fed back a small portion of pure Blood Qi.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng used this opportunity and circulated the pure Blood Qi throughout his body.


    The refining effect of this pure Blood Qi was much better than the chaotic Blood Qi.


    In an instant, Zhou Feng broke through three layers in a row, from the 6th Layer to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering!

 Chapter 20 - New Passive Skill!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng broke through from the 6th Layer to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering so easily!?


    He was feeling a little doubtful about whether he was talented or not.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng noticed that the Blood Qi in his body had undergone a lot of changes.


    If the Blood Qi circulating in his body before was sparse, then the Blood Qi circulating in his body now was as condensed as frost.


    It was just a simple breath, and his chest rose and fell like a bellows.


    The temperature around him rose slightly, and a large amount of heat was continuously released through his pores.


    ¡®Blood? Is my blood like mercury now?


    ¡®This means that I can start drawing Spiritual Qi now!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the mark beside him and found that it had only taken him three days to break through to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering.


    ¡®I might as well complete it in one go!¡¯


    .


    The fact that he could directly break through to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering gave him great confidence, so he planned to channel his Qi directly.


    However, before that, Zhou Feng looked at the skill panel as usual and noticed that the progress bar had long been full.


    Moreover, the color of the progress bar had already turned blue.


    ¡®Should I wait it out for another Gold passive skill?¡¯


    Zhou Feng pondered for a moment and felt that he should wait for another Gold passive skill.


    Gold passive skills were too powerful, after all.


    If it weren¡¯t for the Gold passive skill, Battle Instinct, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to sense Zhao Jun¡¯s killing intent toward him.


    However, if Zhou Feng went for a Gold passive skill, it would mean that he would have to wait for a long time.


    He would be unable to gain new passive skills during that period, while his battle prowess would not improve.


    Compared to cultivating honestly, obtaining a passive skill was the fastest way to increase his battle prowess.


    ¡®Forget it!¡¯


    Although Zhou Geng really wanted to obtain a Gold passive skill, with the threat of an inner disciple pressing down on him, it was better to convert it into combat power!


    ¡®Draw!¡¯ Zhou Feng muttered in his heart.


    Immediately, the skill panel began to draw new passive skills!


    [Drawing¡­]


    Bone Coating (Level 1): A layer of bone will be formed in the body, reducing the damage received for the first time. (The damage reduction will be affected by one¡¯s realm. At the same time, it will take seven days to regenerate.)


    ¡°Defense passive skill? Not bad!¡±


    His luck seemed to be a little good this time, and he directly drew a defense-type passive skill.


    In this way, he would have three types of passive skills: combat, defense, and support.


    His battle prowess would also become more comprehensive, and he would not be easily ambushed.


    ¡°Damage reduction affected by one¡¯s realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng read the description carefully.


    Simply put, there was a limit to the damage reduction that Bone Coating could offer.


    If both sides were at the same level, then the damage reduction would be normal. However, if the opponent¡¯s level was higher than his, then the damage reduction would be reduced to the minimum.


    On the other hand, if the opponent¡¯s level was lower than his, then the damage reduction would be increased to the maximum, and he would almost be immune to this damage.


    From the looks of it, this skill was not very heaven-defying. It could be considered normal.


    The only drawback was that the cooldown time was a little long. It actually took a total of seven days to create another layer of bone coating.


    This was really a little too long!


    As he lamented, Zhou Feng felt that a thin layer of bone was formed under his skin.


    ¡®Is this the bone coating?¡¯


    Zhou Feng squeezed his hand and found that there was an additional layer of a thin membrane.


    How should he put it? This feeling was like a layer of plastic paper wrapped around his skin. It was bizarre and almost did not affect his actions.


    After the passive skill was drawn, he also started to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    The last page of the Vajra Strength Fist mentioned that if he broke through to the initiation stage, he should use his spirit to absorb the Spiritual Qi. To do so, he had to close his eyes to sense the Spiritual Qi around him and then slowly transfer it into his body through his nose and mouth.


    The cultivation technique was poorly written, and it could even be said that it did not say anything.


    Still, the last page mentioned that if one could not sense the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, then they should try to stimulate the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    ¡®Do I need to rely on the Bloodthirsty Gu?¡¯


    Obviously, to the disciples of the Tri-Gu Sect, the most important thing was the Gu in their bodies.


    Compared to humans, Gu had the ability to draw in Spiritual Qi.


    However, whether or not they could use the Bloodthirsty Gu was another matter.


    If the 9th Layer of Body Tempering was not a bottleneck for all outer disciples, then the first obstacle was to absorb Spiritual Qi.


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment, closed his eyes, and began to sense the Spiritual Qi.


    After breaking through to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering, his body seemed to have undergone some changes, and his perception of the outside world was also very keen.


    ¡°Eh? I sensed it?¡±


    Unexpectedly, he actually felt a weak wisp of Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®This wisp of Spiritual Qi is not floating between heaven and earth, but on my body!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng opened his eyes and looked at the location where the Spiritual Qi was emitted.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t this the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant!?¡¯


    It turned out that the one emitting Spiritual Qi was actually the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant Zhao Jun had offered him unwillingly!


    To be honest, he had almost forgotten about this item.


    However, he did not expect that this thing actually contained a trace of Spiritual Qi.


    Once Zhou Feng closed his eyes and focused, he could clearly feel that traces of Spiritual Qi were continuously entering his body.


    ¡®Could this be the heavens¡¯ will?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt that he was the Son of Destiny.


    This was too smooth! With such a treasure, it was not difficult to draw Qi into his body!


    In his excitement, he began to draw the wisps of Spiritual Qi from the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant into his body.


    ¡°Ah! It hurts!¡±


    What caught him off guard was that the gentle-looking wisps of Spiritual Qi were extremely overbearing when they entered his body, instantly tearing through his meridians.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body, which he had been under the impression it was strong, could not withstand these wisps of Spiritual Qi.


    His body could not withstand the overbearing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which was the most difficult part of the Qi Gathering realm.


    Why did so many outer disciples die every year, and very few truly became inner disciples? This was the reason!


    The existence of Gu indeed made many people disregard their tendons, bones, and talents. They could break through to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering as long as they had enough resources.


    However, this was only the end of it. The later stages all required talent.


    The Qi Gathering realm was the first stage of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s true selection of disciples.


    As mentioned earlier, all outer disciples were merely nourishment for others. Only by becoming an inner disciple would there be a trace of value in nurturing them.


    The first step to breaking through to the Qi Gathering realm was to tame the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    One had to ensure that an appropriate amount of Spiritual Qi was introduced to allow them to adapt and then slowly increase the amount.


    This was a small trick, but the Tri-Gu Sect did not divulge it to the outer disciples. After all, in the eyes of many higher-ups, as long as a person felt pain, they would learn a lesson.


    As for someone who was severely injured by the Spiritual Qi when they were trying to attract it, this meant that said person was not cautious enough.


    Those who were not cautious enough would not survive in the Tri-Gu Sect, so this was also their temperament test.


    To successfully attract Spiritual Qi in an environment like the outer sect, one had to have good luck, temperament, willpower, and other aspects in order to break through successfully.


    And only such a disciple was qualified to become a true disciple of the Tri-Gu Sect!

 Chapter 21 - Successfully Absorbing Qi!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Sensing, taming, and transforming Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi¡ªthese were the three problems that one had to face when entering the Qi Gathering realm.


    Now, the first problem was solved by relying on the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant.


    The second problem was a little tricky.


    ¡°It hurts!¡±


    After feeling the tearing pain, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t dare to continue to absorb Spiritual Qi into his body.


    If this continued, it would be very easy for problems to occur.


    Therefore, he could only temporarily slow down. In any case, he had his Self-Healing Constitution, so this minor injury should heal faster.


    At this time, the passive value of a Self-Healing Constitution was also reflected.


    .


    Taming Spiritual Qi was a stage where the body continuously adapted to the Spiritual Qi. A moment of carelessness could easily cause the meridians to shatter and even cause internal injuries.


    Once someone suffered internal injuries, it would be challenging for them to recover. It would take at least ten days for them to recover naturally.


    This was because internal injuries were too troublesome unless they were treated with special medicine.


    This also meant that once a normal outer disciple failed to draw Spiritual Qi, it would take them at least half a month to heal their bodies if they wanted to continue trying.


    Although half a month was not long, one had to know that if a normal outer disciple wanted to successfully draw Spiritual Qi, they had to try at least a dozen times.


    This was still the minimum. A normal person had to try at least 20¨C30 times.


    In addition to the cruel environment of the outer sect, it was difficult to obtain resources once they were injured. Only those with outstanding talent or a large number of resources could cross this threshold.


    However, these restrictions had no effect on Zhou Feng.


    Firstly, he possessed Gluttony, which directly saved a large number of resources.


    Secondly, his Self-Healing Constitution allowed him to continuously break through to the Qi Gathering realm in an extremely short period.


    Third;y, Zhao Jun had delivered all kinds of resources to his door!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng seemed to be cheating.


    Qi Gathering! Failed!


    Again! It failed again!


    It didn¡¯t matter, he would do it again later!


    Relying on his Self-Healing Constitution, he began to crazily draw Spiritual Qi, continuously trying.


    In the end, he controlled a trace of Spiritual Qi and began to circulate it through his meridians.


    After this trace of Spiritual Qi mixed with Blood Qi, it was still converted into Spiritual Qi.


    The moment the Spiritual Qi was born, Zhou Feng once again felt that his body was being tempered. It was as if a piece of scrap metal was being continuously forged.


    It was another transformation of his body, and the strength of his body increased once again.


    ¡°Eh? Old Skin can be triggered even when my meridians are injured!?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that the damaged meridians could also trigger Old Skin.


    Compared to the strength of his meridians from before, the strength of his meridians had directly increased by a level.


    Who would have thought that his support-type passive skills would all be effective as he tried to achieve a breakthrough?


    However, Zhou Feng also discovered a crucial point; be it Gluttony or Old Skin, these passive skills seemed to have a limit.


    The most evident one was Old Skin. After recovering from an injury, his defense would increase.


    After reaching a certain level, even if you were recovering from an injury, your defense would not increase.


    However, this was normal. If it could increase infinitely, then it would be too heaven-defying.


    There was also Gluttony, Self-Healing Constitution, and Bone Coating. These passive attributes were clearly marked as Level 1.


    As for the Gold Battle Instinct, it did not have a level.


    ¡®Does this mean that Gluttony and the other passive skills¡¯ levels can be increased? If so, then how can I increase their level?¡¯


    This was a question that was worth pondering over.


    ¡®Forget it! I shouldn¡¯t worry about this for now! I should be considered to have stepped into the Qi Gathering realm now!;


    Zhou Feng was somewhat excited as he circulated the converted Spiritual Qi.


    Entering the Qi Gathering realm also meant that he could leave his outer sect days behind.


    ¡®Being in contact with the true path of cultivation¡­ The mere thought of this excites me!¡¯


    Unfortunately, just when he was in a rare good mood, the Bloodthirsty Gu pulled a fast one on him, ruining his good mood. It actually devoured more than half of the thread of Spiritual Qi he had just transformed!


    ¡°This¡­ This¡­ This¡­ You can also devour Spiritual Qi!?¡±


    Zhou Feng was somewhat shocked. He had never thought that the Bloodthirsty Gu would devour even Spiritual Qi, not to mention Blood Qi.


    The Spiritual Qi he had painstakingly converted was gone in an instant!


    This was really hard to accept!


    That¡¯s right! As a symbiotic Gu, the Bloodthirsty Gu would naturally grow together with its host.


    When it was at the Body Tempering realm, the Bloodthirsty Gu would absorb Blood Qi.


    But when it reached the Qi Gathering realm, the Bloodthirsty Gu would absorb Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi.


    If the Bloodthirsty Gu wanted to continue transforming, it would also need to consume Spiritual Qi.


    Only Spiritual Qi could allow the Bloodthirsty Gu to transcend from the mortal to the sacred realm and transform from an ordinary mortal into a spirit-like being.


    Of course, it was the same as when it was in the Body Tempering realm.


    Although the Bloodthirsty Gu would continuously devour Spiritual Qi, it would reverse-feed extremely pure Spiritual Qi after absorbing to a certain extent.


    Furthermore, as the Bloodthirsty Gu slowly grew, the host¡¯s future would become more and more dangerous.


    Once the Spiritual Qi in his body was insufficient, and it was time for the Bloodthirsty Gu to feed, it would ¡®help¡¯ the host absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, forcibly allowing them to transform Spiritual Qi.


    At that time, 99% of the people would be torn to death by the tyrannical Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    The terrifying aspect was that even if one didn¡¯t want to break through to the Qi Gathering realm, the Bloodthirsty Gu would ¡®help¡¯ them absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi when it needed Spiritual Qi to transform.


    The Bloodthirsty Gu didn¡¯t care if the host was willing or not. When the time came, the host would end up being torn to death by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    This was also the reason it was written on the last page of the Vajra Strength Fist that the Gu would help the host sense the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s cultivation path was completely at the top of the Demonic Path.


    It did not require much talent, and anyone could cultivate it and advance swiftly.


    It could be said to be far beyond ordinary people, but the higher one reached, the more dangerous it would become.


    A sudden death by accident was also a strange thing.


    As for the Righteous Path cultivators, they valued one¡¯s foundation, talent, and so on. At the same time, one¡¯s progress was slow in the early stages, but the later stages were very smooth.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    Zhou Feng was out of ideas when facing the Bloodthirsty Gu. He could only continue transforming his Spiritual Qi and return to the outer sect once his cultivation stabilized.


    ¡­


    While Zhou Feng was transforming his Spiritual Qi, Zhao Wu, in the inner sect, finally felt something was wrong.


    ¡°That dog Zhao Jun did not dare not to contact me for so long! Something must have happened!¡±


    After not receiving any news from Zhao Jun, Zhao Wu¡¯s eyes flashed with killing intent.


    Something must have happened to Zhao Jun in the outer sect, and it must have been because of Zhao Jun¡¯s arrogant and despotic style!


    Zhao Wu was very clear about Zhao Jun¡¯s style, but as long as he could bring enough resources, who would care about those outer disciples?


    The death of a few outer disciples could speed up his cultivation speed¡ªthis deal was worth it!


    ¡°Looks like I¡¯ll have to send someone to investigate!¡±

 Chapter 22 - Meeting Acquaintances

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Given the experience of transforming Spiritual Qi, Zhou Feng was much more comfortable with it.


    In the end, he didn¡¯t even need to rely on the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant. He could directly absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    The thin Spiritual Qi around him couldn¡¯t even keep up with the efficiency of his absorption.


    ¡°Is this the Qi Gathering realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng condensed Spiritual Qi into his hand, casually punched out, and shattered the stone beside him in an instant.


    After adding Spiritual Qi, the power was simply terrifying.


    If it were before, it would be impossible to completely shatter a stone with just his physical body.


    It wouldn¡¯t be as easy as it was now.


    .


    With or without the addition of Spiritual Qi, this was a zero-to-one change.


    No wonder outer disciples were not worth nurturing at all.


    An inner disciple was enough to take on dozens of outer disciples alone. The difference between having and not having Spiritual Qi was a little too big.


    Now, Zhou Feng only needed to return to the outer sect¡¯s training hall and inform the Elders that he had successfully broken through to the Qi Gathering realm.


    Then he could directly enter the inner sect and automatically become an inner disciple.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng immediately stored everything in his storage bag.


    He was about to grow out fungi after living in the wild for so long!


    At the outer sect¡­


    Courtyard No.7, where Zhou Feng used to live, was now empty.


    No! It should be said that the few people were all dead.


    ¡°An outer disciple offended an inner disciple! Someone from the inner sect is seeking revenge!¡±


    ¡°What? Someone from the inner sect has come?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When they heard that someone from the inner sect had come, many numb outer disciples immediately rushed over to join in the fun. After all, it was a rare occasion for someone from the inner sect to visit.


    Moreover, an outer disciple had offended someone from the inner sect, which was even rarer.


    Naturally, such a rare occurrence could not be missed.


    One had to know that the outer disciples¡¯ daily life was dull. There were no entertainment activities on weekdays.


    Only the newcomers had some fun when they entered the sect.


    Now that an outer disciple antagonized an inner disciple naturally attracted a lot of people¡¯s attention.


    Many people who had rushed to Courtyard No.7 saw this scene: a skinny man was standing in the middle of the courtyard, surrounded by many corpses.


    Moreover, these corpses were very fresh, which was enough to prove that these people had just died.


    ¡°Is he on a killing spree?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s normal! After all, he is from the inner sect! It would be abnormal if he didn¡¯t kill a few people!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s true!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Facing such a terrifying scene, none of the surrounding people were afraid at all. Those who had come to watch were mostly old foxes, and they had seen many such scenes.


    Some people who had just entered the outer sect did not come to watch at all because they still had a glimmer of hope that they could successfully enter the inner sect.


    But those old foxes no longer had any hope.


    To these people, if they could live one more day, so be it.


    After all, not everyone had the spirit of perseverance.


    In such a desperate and cruel environment like the outer sect, there were those who worked hard in cultivation, and naturally, there were also those who lay on the ground and died.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? So many people?¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng walked outside the courtyard and found that many people were gathered there.


    This was truly a miracle!


    One had to know that other than the time he had received the Blood Pills, Zhou Feng had never seen so many people gathered together.


    Normally, everyone was silent, quietly minding their business.


    It was rare to see such a scene where everyone gathered together.


    Then, Zhou Feng saw a person standing in the courtyard.


    ¡°Eh? There is movement?¡±


    Xiong Dan had no idea what to do, but he suddenly noticed that there was a reaction from the Scent-Locking Gu.


    It turned out that after Zhao Wu had realized there was no news from Zhao Jun, he had immediately sent people to investigate the reason. After all, besides bringing a lot of resources, Zhao Jun also had a storage bag.


    Everything else could be ignored for now, but the storage bag had to be retrieved.


    Coincidentally, the person that Zhao Wu had sent over was Xiong Dan, who had a conflict with Zhou Feng previously.


    Xiong Dan, who was originally arrogant, had left the outer sect and entered the inner sect after successfully taunting Zhou Feng.


    Furthermore, he had immediately become an Elder¡¯s disciple.


    Originally, according to Xiong Dan¡¯s expectations, he should have been able to enjoy boundless glory.


    However, on the second day after entering the inner sect, he had received a severe beating.


    When he had been in the outer sect, Xiong Dan thought that being the disciple of an Elder was something worth being happy about.


    However, it wasn¡¯t the case because all inner disciples had to become the disciple of an Elder.


    Although Xiong Dan had become said Elder¡¯s disciple, he hadn¡¯t even met that Elder.


    Soon after, he took part in a terrifying competition.


    One had to know that the inner sect¡¯s environment was many times more terrifying than the outer sect.


    Xiong Dan had tempered his body to the 9th Layer and had successfully absorbed Qi when he was 25 years old.


    In the inner sect, this could be described as being at the bottom.


    In terms of battle prowess, he could not compare to those geniuses.


    This had caused Xiong Dan to not be able to get many resources. In the end, he had even been forced to sell himself to Zhao Wu; only then was he able to barely obtain the resources to maintain his cultivation.


    One had to know that Xiong Dan had been a muscular man before.


    Now that he looked like a very thin bamboo pole, the reason was that he could no longer afford to raise his Bloodthirsty Gu.


    Thus, when Xiong Dan had received the mission to investigate Zhao Jun¡¯s disappearance, he was very happy.


    As long as he successfully completed the mission, he would be able to obtain many resources.


    At the same time, he would be able to go to the outer sect to collect some resources.


    And this was the direct cause Courtyard No.7¡¯s people had died¡ªXiong Dan wanted to collect cultivation resources.


    Even if it was just a few Blood Pills, Xiong Dan did not want to let them go.


    Once one entered the Qi Gathering realm, the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s demand was too great. Not only did it need Blood Qi but also Spiritual Qi.


    Originally, Xiong Dan had been a little irritated, but this Scent-Locking Gu had had no reaction at all.


    This Scent-Locking Gu was something Zhao Wu had given to Xiong Dan.


    This Gu had the ability to distinguish and record scents, and they would react as long as one encountered a recorded scent within ten meters.


    Before Zhao Wu gave the storage bag to Zhao Jun, he had used the Scent-Locking Gu to record the storage bag¡¯s scent.


    The main task of Xiong Dan going to the outer gate was to rely on the Scent-Locking Gu to find the storage bag.


    Next was to find the person who had murdered Zhao Jun.


    Xiong Dan fixed his gaze at Zhou Feng¡¯s location according to the Scent-Locking Gu¡¯s direction.


    ¡°It¡¯s him! ? It¡¯s really this kid!¡±


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s hair was disheveled and his clothes were tattered, Xiong Dan recognized him immediately.


    That had been the first time he had encountered such a thorn, going against him as soon as he entered the sect.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that he had been busy trying to absorb Qi and hadn¡¯t been allowed to do so, he would definitely have twisted Zhou Feng¡¯s head off.


    ¡°Was it you who killed that trash, Zhao Jun? Hand over the storage bag!¡±


    Xiong Dan¡¯s face revealed a trace of viciousness, and the corners of his mouth curled up as if he had Zhou Feng in his pocket.


    This time was different from before. Xiong Dan had already broken through to the Qi Gathering realm, so he would definitely be able to defeat Zhou Feng, who was supposedly in the Body Tempering realm!


    Moreover, this kid was really bold. He had actually dared to touch Young Master Zhao Wu¡¯s people and even brought the storage bag with him.


    Was there anything missing from the storage bag?


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that Xiong Dan had already set his sights on the items in the storage bag!

 Chapter 23 - Xiong Dans Death

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Zhao Jun? Who is this? And a storage bag? This person couldn¡¯t have killed a steward from the inner sect, right?¡±


    ¡°I see! Xiong Dan came down because of this!¡±


    ¡°Awesome!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After hearing Xiong Dan¡¯s words, the people standing around Zhou Feng immediately moved a distance away.


    At the same time, they looked at Zhou Feng in shock. After all, it was rare for someone from the inner sect to come down and look for trouble.


    ¡®As expected, I was exposed! But how did Xiong Dan discover me?¡¯


    Before Zhou Feng had made his move on Zhao Jun, he had already expected that someone from the inner sect would come looking for trouble with him.


    Therefore, he was not flustered at all.


    Not to mention that he had already successfully drawn Qi and had also reached the Qi Gathering realm. Thus, there was no reason to be afraid..


    The only thing that puzzled him was how Xiong Dan had discovered him. He had clearly been hiding amongst the crowd just now.


    The moment he arrived, Xiong Dan had discovered him. This was indeed a little strange.


    ¡°Not talking again? It¡¯s fine! I¡¯ll let you speak properly later!¡±


    Looking at the silent Zhou Feng, Xiong Dan clenched his fists lightly, and threads of blood-colored Spiritual Qi covered them.


    Xiong Dan could be said to be extremely confident when facing Zhou Feng because the latter had entered the outer sect a few months ago.


    No matter how talented he was, it was impossible for him to reach the 9th Layer of Body Tempering and then directly succeed in absorbing Qi!


    Even if Zhou Feng was a genius, he would at most reach the 9th Layer of Body Tempering.


    Even though Xiong Dan had suffered a great blow in the inner sect, he was still extremely proud of being able to climb from the outer sect to the inner sect.


    This was because the number of people who could climb from the outer sect to the inner sect could be described with one¡¯s fingers.


    Xiong Dan leaped, and a distance of more than ten meters was covered in the blink of an eye.


    The fist that was covered with Spiritual Qi directly struck vertically as if a huge axe was splitting open a mountain.


    The target was Zhou Feng¡¯s head, and it seemed that there was no intention of holding back at all.


    This oncoming fist wind made Zhou Feng feel as if he wanted to retreat.


    Nonetheless, he gnashed his teeth and slightly tilted his neck. He also condensed his Spiritual Qi and covered his right fist.


    ¡°What!? Spiritual Qi? You broke through to the Qi Gathering realm!?¡±


    What made Xiong Dan both shocked and angry was that this kid in front of him had broken through to the Qi Gathering realm in less than a few months.


    What kind of talent was this!?


    What made Xiong Dan most angry was that Zhou Feng had no intention of dodging at all. He directly fought like a real man, exchanging one punch for another!


    Under such circumstances, Xiong Dan could not cower, nor could he cower.


    Half a second later, Xiong Dan¡¯s huge ax-like fist smashed directly onto Zhou Feng¡¯s shoulder while Zhou Feng punched Xiong Dan¡¯s stomach.


    Both fists were covered with Spiritual Qi.


    Xiong Dan only felt that his stomach had been hit hard by someone¡¯s hammer, and he almost spat out his bile.


    However, what made Xiong Dan feel like he was going to explode was that Zhou Feng seemed to be completely fine.


    He only lowered his body and recovered swiftly.


    ¡°Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!¡±


    That attack just now was so powerful that Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t be completely fine.


    In reality, Zhou Feng really did not have to do much as the bone-coating layer directly blocked that attack.


    Bone Coating was a defense-type passive skill that could reduce the damage of the first attack.


    It was also because of that passive skill that Zhou Feng had chosen to fight head-on.


    He wanted to take the initiative.


    Although Xiong Dan¡¯s attack was powerful and heavy, Zhou Feng¡¯s body shook slightly and returned to normal after Bone Coating¡¯s damage reduction.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng¡¯s attack succeeded, he did not say any more nonsense and roared. He used a heaven-splitting kick and gave him a fierce kick.


    Xiong Dan had no strength to retaliate as he had just received a punch. He could only cross his arms in front of his chest to block it.


    Xiong Dan groaned as he was sent flying, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.


    Next was the time when Xiong Dan doubted his life.


    Zhou Feng still bit his lips tightly, not uttering a word. He directly sprinkled a handful of sand on the kneeling Xiong Dan.


    It was the same sand that he had used many times before, with the addition of many hard pebbles this time.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The sand-and-pebble attack made Xiong Dan let out a miserable cry. He subconsciously covered his eyes with both hands.


    Following that, Zhou Feng, who had been waiting for this, kicked Xiong Dan¡¯s crotch at the root!


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    A higher pitch came out of Xiong Dan¡¯s mouth.


    The spectators all sucked in a breath of cold air at that moment while their hands subconsciously covered their crotches.


    This was too f*cking ruthless! This was completely not giving anyone the chance to resist!


    Even so, Zhou Feng still did not stop. His character was like this. When he fought, he did not say a word. He would just defeat his opponent in an instant.


    If he could not talk, he would not talk.


    Xiong Dan¡¯s four limbs were instantly broken. After confirming that Xiong Dan no longer had the ability to stand up, Zhou Feng stopped. He then squatted beside Xiong Dan and asked. ¡°Did Zhao Wu send you? And how did you discover me?¡±


    At that moment, Xiong Dan opened his slightly red and swollen eyes. ¡°Don¡¯t be smug! Although you enter the Qi Gathering realm in such a short period, you are nothing in the inner sect!


    ¡°You have no idea how cruel the inner sect is! And a bumpkin like you only has the qualifications to be a foil to others!¡±


    What an uncooperative attitude!


    Zhou Feng did not say much because he had encountered similar situations before.


    ¡°What about now?¡± He quickly broke one of Xiong Dan¡¯s fingers.


    ¡°Hehe! It¡¯s useless! Since I¡¯m going to die anyway, it¡¯s worth it to exchange my life for your life! Young Master Zhao Wu will kill you!¡±


    Xiong Dan¡¯s face was distorted from the pain, but he still glared at Zhou Feng with hatred.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s threats were nothing to Xiong Dan because he had already failed to complete the mission Zhao Wu had given him.


    Failing this mission meant that he could not obtain more cultivation resources.


    Without cultivation resources, he would die!


    Sooner or later, he would die, so he might as well do so in the hands of a human. He would not die from being sucked dry by the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    Moreover, his death was not a loss, as Zhao Wu, who had been slapped in the face repeatedly, would definitely take revenge.


    Using his life to exchange for Zhou Feng¡¯s life was definitely worth it!


    ¡®He actually used only a few months to provoke him. Aren¡¯t you a genius? Even if you are a genius, you have to die!¡¯


    ¡°I hope you can still be so tough later on!¡±


    In response, Zhou Feng only said one sentence. Then, he turned around and looked at the surrounding crowd.


    Those old fogeys who were still watching instantly understood his meaning and immediately scattered like birds and beasts.


    Soon, only Xiong Dan and Zhou Feng were left.


    Of course, there was also a pile of corpses in the yard.


    Looking at the corpses scattered around, Zhou Feng felt a little uncomfortable.


    No matter what, these people had died because of him.


    Nonetheless, he didn¡¯t feel much guilt because the environment of this world was like this.


    If one wanted to live longer, their heart would only become colder. There was no other way.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes gradually turned cold as he looked at Xiong Dan on the ground¡­

 Chapter 24 - Cultivation Realm

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When no one else was around, Zhou Feng asked again, ¡°How did you find me?¡±


    Xiong Dan was still very firm and directly spat out, ¡°Let me be clear! My current identity is an inner disciple! You probably don¡¯t know what it is like to kill an inner disciple¡­¡±


    It turned out that Xiong Dan was so firm because of other factors, but the most important one was his identity as an inner disciple.


    Unlike outer disciples, inner disciples were already registered in the sect.


    To be able to kill their way into the inner sect from the outer sect, they could be considered elites.


    Such an elite naturally could not be casually consumed like outer disciples.


    Moreover, inner disciples were required to guard many places in the sect.


    For example, some of the Meat Gu caves in the outer sect required at least Qi Gathering cultivators to guard them.


    Therefore, any inner disciple could not be killed without reason. This was a rule written on the surface in the inner court..


    However, in reality, in a place like the Tri-Gu Sect, almost no people enforced this rule.


    It was not worth mentioning that inner disciples would poison and plot against each other.


    However, this could not be done in public. Once you brazenly killed an inner disciple, you would be exposed. Thus, the other inner disciples would have a reason to attack you.


    It was said that this was to train the disciples to be cautious and careful because the Tri-Gu Sect also had competitors.


    Moreover, some sects were even crazier than the Tri-Gu Sect.


    This was something that one would only come into contact with after reaching the inner sect.


    No matter how talented you were in the outer sect, you wouldn¡¯t know this information.


    Xiong Dan was now hoping to use the information gap to trick Zhou Feng first and save his own life.


    The reason he had been so tough earlier was to increase his credibility.


    It made Zhou Feng mistakenly think that Xiong Dan really had the confidence to be so tough.


    Xiong Dan was a scheming person, not to mention that he had been in the inner sect for a few months.


    The inflexible people would also become tactful as long as one stayed in the inner sect for a few months. Otherwise, they would turn into corpses.


    Hence, this kind of deception trick Xiong Dan used was extremely smooth to use.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not fall for that trick.


    He thought that Xiong Dan was not a smart person; playing tricks and petty schemes could not outwit truly smart people.


    Therefore, everything he did was simple and crude. He did not know how to beat around the bush and went straight to the core of the problem.


    Just like his fighting style, he was straightforward!


    ¡°Not answering?¡± Zhou Feng kicked Xiong Dan¡¯s crotch.


    As a male, he was well aware of this weak spot. Almost none of his male compatriots could resist it.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Xiong Dan¡¯s face instantly turned pale. His eyes bulged slightly, and he let out a shrill cry.


    ¡°I¡¯m giving you one more chance!¡±


    Zhou Feng asked again expressionlessly.


    Xiong Dan felt that cold intent, so he did not dare to play any tricks and directly told him everything.


    ¡°Scent-Locking Gu! I relied on a Scent-Locking Gu to find you!¡±


    Xiong Dan took out the Scent-Locking Gu upon saying that.


    Scent-Locking Gu?


    A worm that looked like a snail¡¯s shell appeared in Xiong Dan¡¯s palm.


    This was also the first time Zhou Feng saw a Gu with his own eyes.


    Zhou Feng put the Scent-Locking Gu in his storage bag and asked, ¡°Why do you want to be Zhao Wu¡¯s subordinate? Didn¡¯t you already attract Qi? What is Zhao Wu¡¯s realm now?¡±


    He asked three questions in a row. These three questions were what he wanted to know the most.


    The most important one was Zhao Wu¡¯s realm. After all, he was basically on the opposite side of Zhao Wu, which meant that Zhao Wu was already his enemy.


    Under such circumstances, Zhou Feng naturally wanted to know more about his enemy.


    Xiong Dan¡¯s face showed a trace of helplessness when he heard those questions.


    ¡°This is all because of the lack of Spirit Stones! Otherwise, would I be in such dire straits!? Damn Bloodthirsty Gu!¡±


    As he spoke, Xiong Dan suddenly became crazy.


    Spirit Stones!?


    That¡¯s right! Breaking through to the Qi Gathering realm meant that one could enter the inner sect from the outer sect. It also meant that one could fall into another huge pit from one pit.


    Starting from the Qi Gathering realm, one needed Spirit Stones to assist them in cultivation.


    This was because the Bloodthirsty Gu needed Spiritual Qi to undergo a transformation, and just absorbing the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth was not enough to satisfy the Bloodthirsty Gu.


    At this time, all the inner disciples needed to earn Spirit Stones.


    The most fatal thing was that after the Bloodthirsty Gu absorbed Spiritual Qi, its demand for Blood Qi would also increase.


    Spiritual Qi would cause a transformation, and the transformation required a large amount of Blood Qi to support it.


    Thus, all the inner disciples were exhausted from running for their lives and fighting to the death for that little bit of resources.


    What made Xiong Dan most desperate was that there were many factions in the inner sect, and each faction had at least one Elder behind them.


    These factions formed many interest groups. Thus, it was too difficult for lone wolves like Xiong Dan to snatch food from these interest groups.


    In the end, he had no choice but to become Zhao Wu¡¯s lackey.


    As for Zhao Wu¡¯s specific cultivation level, Xiong Dan was not sure, but he heard that Zhao Wu had already prepared to gather Qi during this period of time.


    ¡°Gather qi? Is this the realm after the Qi Gathering realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! The Qi Gathering realm begins to absorb the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. After that, after experiencing the two great realms of Qi Induction and Condensation, the Spiritual Altar realm is next!¡±


    Xiong Dan divulged to Zhou Feng some of the later realms. This was also considered some common knowledge of the inner sect, but Xiong Dan was not very clear after the Spiritual Altar realm.


    Next, Zhou Feng asked some more questions.


    Xiong Dan gave some answers.


    ¡°Alright! Goodbye!¡±


    After asking the questions, Zhou Feng was straightforward and neat, twisting Xiong Dan¡¯s neck. The whole process took less than half a second, and Xiong Dan did not even have time to react.


    He had just finished answering one of Zhou Feng¡¯s questions, and then his vision went black.


    Zhou Feng was cautious enough to take a rock and smash it into Xiong Dan¡¯s chest, ensuring that he was deader than dead.


    He then checked that Xiong Dan¡¯s chest had caved in.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! I can¡¯t let you off!¡±


    After leaving these words, Zhou Feng shook off the blood on his hand and turned around to leave.


    Patrolling disciples should be arriving here in a while to clean up the mess. There was no need to trouble himself.


    After that, Zhou Feng walked directly to the position of the Strength Imparting Hall.


    The place was still as deserted as before. Almost no outer disciples came here.


    ¡°Someone actually attracted Qi again? Not bad!¡±


    Just as he walked to the Strength Imparting Hall, Zhou Feng heard an old voice.


    Then, two tokens were thrown out.


    ¡°Kid, take the tokens and head directly to the mountainside to enter the inner sect! Remember to join the Flying Eagle Society. You are one of us!¡±


    The first token¡¯s style was similar to what he had obtained before, only with a little more patterns.


    Next was a token that looked like a flying eagle.


    Wait! He seemed to have found this token on Xiong Dan before.

 Chapter 25 - The Truth Behind It

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng felt that the token in front of him was surprisingly familiar.


    It seemed that Xiong Dan also possessed such a token.


    If he took this token, wouldn¡¯t he be directly joining Zhao Wu¡¯s faction?


    Through questioning Xiong Dan, Zhou Feng had some understanding of the inner sect.


    Compared to the outer sect, the inner sect had more people and more factions.


    In order to snatch cultivation resources, many people in the inner sect chose to form groups and formed various organizations.


    It seemed that the area he was in was the territory of the Flying Eagle Society.


    Xiong Dan should have also obtained this token back then and finally chose to join the Flying Eagle Society.


    In other words, those who successfully attracted Qi would join the Flying Eagle Society in the area he was in..


    Obviously, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t join the Flying Eagle Society. After all, what he did was directly going against Zhao Wu.


    Although the two of them had never met before, it could be said that they would not rest until one of them was dead.


    Wouldn¡¯t joining the Flying Eagle Society be like letting a sheep into a tiger¡¯s mouth?


    ¡°Got it!¡±


    Zhou Feng silently put away the two tokens.


    It seemed that he could only hide the token!


    He then started calculating in his heart.


    ¡­


    Inner sect!


    This was the place Zhou Feng had been hearing about, to the point his ears hurt, a few months ago.


    At that moment, he was finally ready to join the inner sect.


    The process of entering the inner sect was very simple; he just needed to pass through the pass on the mountainside.


    At the pass, he only needed to provide the token to pass through.


    When he passed through the pass, the guards saw that he didn¡¯t have any tokens and looked at him in surprise.


    Then, they directly let him pass without making things difficult for him.


    ¡°Is this the inner sect?¡±


    After a short flight of stairs, Zhou Feng finally arrived at the inner sect.


    Surprise, bewilderment, and other emotions were all displayed on his face at that moment.


    This was because the scene in front of him was completely beyond his imagination.


    A large number of ancient-style buildings and people were walking on the streets. It looked like an ancient town.


    After getting used to the oppressive atmosphere of the outer sect, he couldn¡¯t help but feel relaxed when he saw this scene.


    Was this the inner sect? Was the competition very fierce?


    No matter how he looked at it, it didn¡¯t seem like it! What was going on?


    With this question in mind, Zhou Feng walked toward the center of the town.


    This was because the center of the town should be the office set up by the sect. All outer disciples had to report to the office when they ascended.


    Along the way, Zhou Feng found that many people in this town only were in the Body Tempering realm. There were even some people who didn¡¯t cultivate at all.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t they say that the inner sect is very cruel? This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng looked around in astonishment, and many people¡¯s astonished gazes also surrounded him.


    ¡°This person seems to have come up from below the Gu Refinement Cave!¡±


    ¡°I think so! But why is no one leading him?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! Those who come up from below the Gu Refinement Cave should have a token!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡®Gu Refinement Cave? Didn¡¯t I come up from the outer sect?


    ¡®This is the inner sect? Why does it look like a town? What about those inner disciples?


    ¡®Is it because I don¡¯t have a token?¡¯


    Countless questions appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, and he needed an explanation.


    Not long after, he arrived at the office in the center of the town.


    ¡°Came up from the outer gate? Take out the tokens!¡±


    Zhou Feng took out the sect token, but not the Flying Eagle Token.


    ¡°No affiliation token! Only the sect token!¡±


    The people in the office looked at him in surprise again.


    ¡°No affiliation token? Think about it carefully!¡±


    ¡°There really is no token!¡±


    Of course, Zhou Feng would not take out the token of the Flying Eagle Society. He did not want to meet Zhao Wu head-on so soon.


    He still needed time to develop.


    He had just entered the Qi Gathering realm, so he did not know any cultivation techniques, methods, or even some common knowledge.


    Under such circumstances, against an inner disciple who was about to enter the Spiritual Altar realm¡­


    There was absolutely no chance of victory. He was not going to let the sheep fall into the tiger¡¯s mouth!


    ¡°Interesting! If you don¡¯t have it, then so be it! This is only a small mortal town under the jurisdiction of the sect. Someone will bring you up the mountain later!


    ¡°There are still quite a number of people who will be traveling with you. You can wait here for a while!¡±


    The person from the office gave a simple explanation and asked Zhou Feng to wait at the side.


    ¡°I want to ask a few questions. Is it okay?¡±


    Zhou Feng directly took out a Blood Pill and placed it in front of that person.


    When the person from the office saw the Blood Pill, his eyes instantly lit up.


    Soon, Zhou Feng gathered a lot of information.


    For example, why the outer sect was called Gu Refinement Cave.


    What the hell was the outer sect!?


    The so-called outer sect was just a nice way of saying it, but in reality, the outer sect was a Gu refinement chamber.


    This was the Meat Gu!


    Zhou Feng would never have dreamed that the main ingredients for the fodder of the Meat Gu, which he had personally fed before, were these outer disciples.


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t misread!


    Although the Meat Gu could devour anything, if one wanted the Meat Gu to grow faster, the best food was actually humans!


    Moreover, they were people who had cultivated before, and among them, those at the 9th Layer of Body Tempering were the most effective.


    What outer sect? What outer disciples? They were all just food!


    The outer sect was a large-scale breeding ground, and the outer disciples were all considered moving food.


    Zhou Feng finally understood!


    Why did the people in the Merit Hall look like they were looking at a dead person every time he received a Blood Pill?


    Why were there basically no cultivation techniques that could be cultivated? The Vajra Strength Fist was already considered the best cultivation technique.


    Also, the inner disciples who were stationed there completely ignored them.


    They always had an impatient look on their faces.


    ¡°Oh right! Old Wan must know something!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly came to a realization. Didn¡¯t the outer disciples only have three years to cultivate?


    As long as three years passed, the sect would bring them back.


    However, Old Wan didn¡¯t look young anymore, so why could he still stay in the outer sect?


    So this so-called three-year period was only Zhou Feng¡¯s life expectancy. He could only be used as fodder if he didn¡¯t break through to the Qi Gathering realm.


    How could a Gu like the Bloodthirsty Gu, which could allow a person to break through to the 9th Layer of Body Tempering, be planted casually?


    All of this was just for the sake of feeding!?


    The illogical things that Zhou Feng knew earlier seemed to be able to be explained in an instant.


    All the outer disciples lived in a lie!


    Why hadn¡¯t Xiong Dan returned to the outer sect to find trouble with him after breaking through and becoming an inner disciple?


    It was obvious that he did not want to return to the outer sect, a hellish place.


    All of this made Zhou Feng feel a chill down his spine.


    The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s true disciple supply grounds were actually the various mortal small towns that were built on the mountainside.


    There were many small mortal towns, and they had been living under the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s control for countless generations.


    They had a deep understanding of Gu and had a certain cultivation foundation. At the same time, they also had a strong sense of belonging with the Tri-Gu Sect.

 Chapter 26

    The Tri-Gu Sect had long established a disciple cultivation system.


    There were countless small mortal towns on Mount Gu. These small towns were the foundation of the Tri-Gu Sect, and there was basically a martial arts school that specialized in cultivating true outer disciples in each town.


    These outer disciples would not plant Gu in their bodies. Instead, they would wait until the Qi induction was successful, and only after entering the inner sect would the sect plant Gu to them.


    Moreover, the quality of the planted Gu would be better.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was able to stand tall, and it definitely did not rely solely on martial force to maintain it.


    After learning this, Zhou Feng was somewhat silent.


    The quality of the Gu planted in someone like him, who had climbed up from a Gu Refinement Cave, was too low.


    .


    This would limit his potential.


    However, that was not the most important matter. The most important thing was that he had not joined any small groups.


    This meant that he could not accept many sect missions, especially those related to earning Spirit Stones. They had been divided up by many small groups long ago.


    As they chatted, the person from the office asked another question. ¡°You really don¡¯t have a token? It¡¯s not easy to survive in the inner sect alone!¡±


    ¡°No! Thank you for your clarification!¡± Zhou Feng still insisted that he didn¡¯t have one.


    Regarding this, that person also didn¡¯t insist.


    After waiting for a while, Zhou Feng and a group of people walked toward the inner sect.


    ¡­


    ¡°Over there is Myriad Gu Tower! In a while, you will go there to receive your Gu!


    ¡°Next to it are the Scripture Pavillion, the Merit Receiving Hall, and the Merit Transmitting Hall!¡±


    ¡°Other than that, there¡¯s also the Pill Hall, the Weapon Hall, and so on. You¡¯ll know when the time comes!


    ¡°Oh right! There¡¯ll be a notice coming later. See which Elder you want to join. I¡¯ll inform you when the time comes!¡±


    After entering the inner sect, one could say that the treatment was completely different from that of the outer sect. There were people directly guiding them and explaining some problems.


    The person who explained to them was called Zhao Yang. He only stared at the first two people among them throughout the entire process.


    As for the others, he did not pay much attention.


    Nonetheless, they all nodded because these people all had the token of the Flying Eagle Society.


    Since Zhou Feng did not have anything, he was faintly ostracized.


    Regarding this, he did not really care since he was already used to being alone. What he was more concerned about was what path he would take next.


    Could the Gu in his body be removed?


    ¡°After officially becoming an inner disciple, you will have a chance to choose a cultivation technique! You will also have the qualifications to exchange for all sorts of pills and artifacts!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes instantly lit up.


    To be honest, his desire for cultivation techniques was currently ranked first. There was no other way as his lack of cultivation knowledge was terrifying.


    Zhou Feng was eager to understand how to cultivate and also had various cultivation matters.


    ¡°Also, if you have time, it¡¯s best to go to the first floor of the Scripture Pavilion and read more books to understand the surrounding forces!


    ¡°It hasn¡¯t been very peaceful recently! The White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect are very restless!¡±


    Finally, Zhao Yang gave a suggestion.


    After waiting for a while, the result of joining the Elders came out.


    Other than Zhou Feng, all of them joined the Second Elder¡¯s faction.


    As for Zhou Feng, he joined the First Elder¡¯s faction.


    There were a total of nine Elders in the Tri-Gu Sect. From the First Elder to the Fifth Elder, they were all part of the Bloodthirsty Gu faction.


    From the Sixth Elder to the Ninth Elder, they were all part of the Penta-Poison Gu faction.


    Each Elder occupied a mountain peak in Mountain Range Gu.


    They were now at the main peak, and someone would bring them to the mountain peak they belonged to.


    ¡°First Elder?¡±


    When they heard that Zhou Feng had joined the first Elder¡¯s faction, the others immediately showed sympathetic expressions.


    When Zhou Feng saw this, he frowned slightly.


    Although he guessed that there was something wrong with the First Elder¡¯s faction, he had no other choice. He could only follow the First Elder to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    ¡­


    Bitter Bamboo Peak. This was the peak where the Grand Elder of the Tri-Gu Sect was located.


    Why had those people shown sympathy when they heard that Zhou Feng had been assigned to Bitter Bamboo Peak?


    Because¡­ the Grand Elder who lived on Bitter Bamboo Peak was famous for being an ascetic maniac!


    Every disciple who entered Bitter Bamboo Peak had to become an ascetic cultivator just like the Grand Elder.


    This meant that you couldn¡¯t enjoy anything other than cultivation.


    Every year, the Grand Elder would personally test all his disciples.


    If they failed the test, they would be eaten.


    They would literally be eaten and in front of the other disciples.


    Usually, no one would choose to join the Grand Elder¡¯s faction. After all, most of the new inner disciples had already decided which Elder they would join.


    Only people like Zhou Feng, who climbed up from Gu Refinement Caves, would be assigned to the Grand Elder¡¯s faction.


    Other than that, the other Elders would also send some disciples to Bitter Bamboo Peak because the Grand Elder had said that Bitter Bamboo Peak should have at least 100 new disciples every year.


    Besides being an ascetic cultivator, the Grand Elder was also a battle maniac. The other Elders simply did not want to face this madman.


    Thus, they could only send some scapegoats to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    After arriving at Bitter Bamboo Peak, a muscular man came down from the mountain to welcome Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Eh? Only one person this time?


    ¡°Little Junior Brother! Come with me! I¡¯m your big Senior Brother!¡±


    Wang Ming stuck out his tongue and licked his upper lip. Traces of saliva dripped down from the edge of his mouth. His expression was as if he treated Zhou Feng as a portion of delicious food.


    It made people feel a chill down their spine.


    When Zhou Feng saw Wang Ming in this state, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.


    Especially his undisguised appearance made him extremely uncomfortable.


    No wonder when those people heard that he had been assigned to the Grand Elder¡¯s faction, they all had looks of sympathy.


    What kind of people were these?


    On the way up the mountain, Zhou Feng walked in front while Wang Ming, who had been welcoming him, followed behind him. At the same time, saliva dripped all over the ground.


    This feeling of being stabbed in the back almost made him want to make a move.


    Moreover, the scariest thing was that the other people he met along the way also looked like starving ghosts. After seeing this newcomer, their eyes also shone.


    Not long after, Wang Ming, the Eldest Senior Brother, brought him to the place where he lived.


    ¡°Our Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s main cultivation technique is the Demon-Devouring Technique! These are the first three levels. We can only ask Master for the follow-up cultivation technique after we have cultivated it!


    ¡°And this is a bottle of Primeval Blood Pills. Eldest Senior Brother personally gave it to you! Remember to cultivate well!¡±


    Wang Ming swallowed his saliva, took out a bottle of Primeval Blood Pills, and placed it on the table.


    It was as if a wolf was telling a sheep to eat well.


    After saying that, Wang Ming left.


    But before he left, his gaze was as if he wanted to directly swallow Zhou Feng.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!? The people on the mountain¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned, and goosebumps appeared on his body. No matter how he looked at it, it felt weird!

 Chapter 27

    Not long after Wang Ming left, Zhou Feng received many visitors. There were both Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, and each of them had left behind many things.


    The Primeval Blood Pills were the most abundant among them, and there was also some special beast meat.


    But without exception, when everyone looked at him, there seemed to be saliva flowing out of the corners of their mouths.


    It was as if they were checking their own food.


    Finally, everyone left, leaving him alone in the room.


    At this time, Zhou Feng also took some time to look at the Demon-Devouring Technique that he had just obtained.


    He had always been very interested in a real cultivation method. The only pity was that he had never obtained one before, but now he could finally have a glimpse of the cultivation path.


    .


    Demon-Devouring Technique!


    As the name implied, it was mainly about swallowing.


    This was both a cultivation method and a Gu cultivation method.


    Humans and Gu cultivated all the cultivation methods of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Not only did one have to break through, but even the Gu in their bodies had to break through.


    Although this kind of cultivation method consumed a lot of resources, once one successfully broke through, their battle prowess would more than double.


    The first point of cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique was to let the Bloodthirsty Gu in one¡¯s body change into the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    As long as the Gu in one¡¯s body changed into the Demon-Devouring Gu, this Demon-Devouring Technique would be considered to have entered the door threshold.


    If one wanted to let the Bloodthirsty Gu change, they would need the Demon-Devouring Pill to aid in cultivation.


    It was said that this Demon-Devouring Pill was personally refined by his Master, the First Elder of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Moreover, all the disciples who joined Bitter Bamboo Peak could obtain it for free until they reached the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s threshold.


    ¡°Free again?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyebrows started to twitch crazily upon seeing this.


    After one¡¯s Demon-Devouring Technique entered the threshold, that is, after the Bloodthirsty Gu turned into the Demon-Devouring Gu, the host¡¯s stomach would change. At the same time, their appetite would increase greatly.


    At this time, the host would need to constantly eat, continuously devouring all kinds of food that the Demon-Devouring Gu needed.


    And once the host could not satisfy the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s requirement, it would start to devour the host¡¯s heart.


    This characteristic was very similar to the Bloodthirsty Gu, except that the Bloodthirsty Gu was not as powerful as the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    There was even an important point¡ªthe Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s favorite food was also the Demon-Devouring Gu itself and the host of the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng instantly understood what was going on.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in the bodies of those Senior Brothers and Sisters from earlier had already put them under their control. They could no longer control their own appetites.


    This was simply an extremely evil demonic technique, driven by such an appetite.


    No one knew what would happen.


    If they were all fodder, then wouldn¡¯t all the disciples on Bitter Bamboo Peak be the First Elder¡¯s fodder!?


    Zhou Feng felt a little suffocated.


    Compared to the pressure of the outer sect, the pressure on the Bitter Bamboo Peak was simply suffocating.


    Although the Demon-Devouring Technique had many disadvantages, it naturally had many advantages as well. After all, the Demon-Devouring Technique represented that the side effects were great while the benefits were even greater.


    As long as one cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, their physical body would receive a terrifying tempering.


    One¡¯s physical strength, self-healing ability, strength, speed, immunity, and so on would almost be all improved.


    Therefore, the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples¡¯ battle style was also extremely simple and crude.


    That was to rely on the body to crush everything.


    Spiritual Qi? That was useless! After cultivating the Demon-Devouring Physique, normal Spiritual Qi was completely unable to cause any harm.


    Even if one was injured, it would also heal itself in an extremely short period.


    Poison? It was useless!


    The Demon-Devouring Gu would directly swallow any poison.


    As long as it was not a particularly terrifying poison, they were basically immune.


    Hence, the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples did not need to cultivate any other battle or dao techniques. They only needed to focus on cultivating the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    In a word, they were walking the path of breaking 10,000 techniques.


    ¡°So powerful?¡±


    The more Zhou Feng read the description, the more he felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss.


    If this cultivation technique was really so powerful, then why did only the Grand Elder cultivate it?


    And why was the Grand Elder only the Grand Elder and not the Sect Leader?


    It was very likely that the further the cultivation technique progressed, the more pitfalls it would cause.


    But now, it was impossible for Zhou Feng not to cultivate it.


    ¡°I can only take it one step at a time!¡±


    He heaved a long sigh of relief and then took a look at the skill panel out of habit.


    Whenever he felt pressure, he would always take a look at the skill panel to relieve the pressure on himself. After all, compared to other things, it was more reassuring to have no plug-ins.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Why is there a change?¡±


    This time, Zhou Feng suddenly noticed that there was a change in the skill panel.


    In the previous skill panel, he could only see a simple progress bar.


    Now, a skill actually appeared on the skill panel.


    Gluttony (Level 1)(Can be leveled up!)


    It was actually the Gluttony (Passive) that he had obtained in the beginning! It could be leveled up now!?


    He could level it up passively?


    What was the reason? Could it be the Demon-Devouring Technique? Was it because he had triggered some hidden condition?


    Zhou Feng immediately guessed that the change in the skill panel was very likely due to the appearance of the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    And now, he was clear about one thing regarding the passive skills he had drawn. As long as there was a level, it meant that he could level up.


    However, the conditions to trigger the level up were unclear.


    ¡°Level up!¡±


    Naturally, there was no need to think about whether he should level up or not.


    Of course, he had to level up!


    As he silently chanted in his heart, the progress bar on the skill panel began to regress.


    ¡°So leveling up will also reduce the progress!¡±


    Zhou Feng finally understood one of the conditions for leveling up passive skills.


    Gluttony (Level 2): Every time you swallow something, you will be able to digest it more perfectly and quickly. At the same time, you will have a chance to gain an additional unknown attribute, and your appetite will not control you.


    After Gluttony reached Level 2, the specific description changed immediately.


    Previously, when Gluttony was still at Level 1, it could only digest food more quickly.


    But now, there was no such limit.


    In other words, no matter what it was, as long as Zhou Feng could swallow it, he could digest it quickly and gain an additional unknown attribute.


    In the end, he could even be immune to the control of his appetite!?


    ¡°Not controlled by appetite? ? Doesn¡¯t this correspond to the Demon-Devouring Technique?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was one of excitement.


    Cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique and then being controlled by his appetite¡­


    He had just witnessed it, whether it was his Eldest Senior Brother, Wang Ming, or the others. Everyone was like a starving ghost, and they couldn¡¯t even control their saliva. If they weren¡¯t careful, it would flow out of the corner of their mouths.


    This kind of appearance was really terrifying.


    But if his appetite couldn¡¯t control him, then wouldn¡¯t Zhou Feng be extremely compatible with the Demon-Devouring Technique?


    Sure enough, his breakthrough was on the skill panel.


    With the Level-2 Gluttony (Passive), Zhou Feng was less resistant to practicing the Demon-Devouring Technique!

 Chapter 28

    ¡°He joined Bitter Bamboo Peak?¡±


    When Zhao Wu learned that Zhou Feng had entered Bitter Bamboo Peak, his tightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed.


    Bitter Bamboo Peak was a group of starving ghosts, and no one would listen to him there.


    Originally, Zhao Wu thought that someone would crawl out of the Gu Refinement Cave. He could easily crush anyone who came out of that place with a finger.


    However, he didn¡¯t expect that this person named Zhou Feng would kill Zhao Jun first.


    Moreover, he had broken through to the Qi Gathering realm within a few short months.


    In the end, he had even killed the Xiong Dan that Zhao Wu had sent down.


    According to this trend, he might even be able to make this person jump around a little.


    .


    However, since he was arranged to join Bitter Bamboo Peak, it was unnecessary to pay attention to it.


    Zhao Wu was very clear about who the people on Bitter Bamboo Peak were.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t survive in that kind of place. It was just a pity that the storage bag and those resources were gone.


    ¡°Forget it! I¡¯ll just treat it as feeding a dog!¡±


    Zhao Wu really didn¡¯t want to find trouble with those madmen from Bitter Bamboo Peak for a storage bag and some Blood Pills and Primeval Blood Pills.


    Once he was entangled with them, it would be difficult to get rid of them.


    What Zhou Feng did not know was that Zhao Wu, who had been investigating and wanted to cause trouble for him, had stopped.


    After he found out that he had joined Bitter Bamboo Peak, he also stopped.


    This was because this Bitter Bamboo Peak was really not a place that ordinary people could stay.


    At least 100 disciples joined Bitter Bamboo Peak every year, but now, the remaining disciples on Bitter Bamboo Peak were probably not even 20.


    ¡­


    Time passed quickly. It was already the tenth day after Zhou Feng had become a member of Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    During that period, the Bloodthirsty Gu in his body had already transformed into the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    At the same time, his cultivation had also reached the 3rd Level of Qi Gathering; his advancement speed was simply terrifying!


    In ten days, he had gone from the 1st Level to the 3rd Level of Qi Gathering. This speed was already breakneck compared to other inner sect disciples.


    In fact, during that period, he had even gone to the sect¡¯s Scripture Pavillion and learned a footwork art for free.


    This footwork art was called Ghost Shadow Steps. One could move like a ghost and even create many afterimages. It was an excellent escaping footwork art.


    And all of this was thanks to the support of his other Senior Brothers, especially his Eldest Senior Brother, Wang Ming, who had brought him to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    During that period, he had been continuously sending all sorts of cultivation resources to support Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation.


    Just the bottles of Primeval Blood Pill alone were already an unknown number. Other than that, there was also the Qi Replenishing Pill, which was especially used to replenish Spiritual Qi.


    ¡°My Spiritual Qi has completely turned black!¡±


    Zhou Feng slowly let out a breath and ended his cultivation session this morning.


    During that period, along with the Bloodthirsty Gu being transformed into Demon-Devouring Gu, the color of his spiritual power had also changed, from red to black.


    This meant that he had completely mastered the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    That endless appetite started to appear, and his stomach seemed to have turned into a black hole.


    He wanted to eat all the time.


    However, because of the Level-2 Gluttony, he was passive.


    Thus, this endless appetite could not shake his mind.


    ¡°Wang Ming looks like he can¡¯t hold on any longer! But he won¡¯t make a move on me in a short time!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was expressionless, but he was already thinking about how to deal with Wang Ming in his heart.


    After this period of contact, Zhou Feng had already understood many things.


    The first was the problem of the realm. The three realms of Qi Gathering, Qi Induction, and Qi Condensation were actually all stages of absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    Everything was just to prepare for the creation of the Spiritual Altar.


    The Spiritual Altar was the first realm on the path of cultivation that allowed a cultivator to undergo a transformation.


    The creation of the Spiritual Altar was also a crucial moment for condensing one¡¯s mind and forming one¡¯s soul.


    As long as one successfully created the Spiritual Altar, the embryonic form of the soul would be there. With the embryonic form of the soul, one would be able to control the power of Heaven and Earth.


    All kinds of powerful dao arts could also be used.


    One could even use a spiritual treasure to nourish one¡¯s Spiritual Altar and control a spiritual treasure.


    If the Qi Gathering realm was the starting point on the path of cultivation, then only those who reached the Spiritual Altar realm could be considered to have combat strength.


    Battles below the Spiritual Altar realm were all fights between children.


    Therefore, Qi Gathering, Qi Induction, and Qi Condensation were all very simple things to do in these three realms.


    That was to try their best to devour Spiritual Qi and convert it into spiritual energy. This was because casting a Spiritual Altar consumed a lot of spiritual energy.


    Once the Spiritual Altar was cast, the depletion of spiritual energy would be equal to failure.


    After failure, there would be serious injuries, and in serious cases, sudden death.


    It was precisely because of this that after Zhou Feng consumed many resources, his realm also soared.


    This was because there was really no bottleneck.


    At the same time, this also meant that the fluctuation of battle strength between the Qi Gathering, Qi Induction, and Qi Condensation realms wasn¡¯t too big.


    Battle strength wouldn¡¯t form a huge difference.


    And this gave Zhou Feng a chance, a chance to kill Wang Ming.


    Wang Ming simply treated him as a personal item, feeding him regularly every day, just like feeding a pig.


    Perhaps when he broke through to the Qi Induction realm, Wang Ming would make a move. Therefore, Zhou Feng was already planning how to counter-kill Wang Ming.


    The specific counter-killing plan was actually to draw a large number of passive skills. He would rely on the passive skills to create an unexpected effect, counter-killing him in one fell swoop.


    ¡°The progress bar is finally full!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the skill panel and found that the progress bar was full, and he could draw passive skills again.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    With his command, another passive skill appeared on the skill panel.


    Aura Blade (Level 1): Your first attack will consume accumulated aura. For every consumed aura, the damage will be increased by 1%. You can accumulate 20 aurae every day. The maximum accumulation is five days.


    ¡®Huh? This passive skill seemed pretty good!¡¯


    To explain it simply, he could accumulate aura as long as he did not make a move.


    If this aura were fully accumulated, the power of the first attack would be doubled!


    If this were used together with the Bone Coating, the effect would be pretty good.


    Once every seven days, Bone Coating could directly reduce the damage received for the first time. And if this Aura Blade were fully accumulated, the power of the first attack would be doubled.


    Didn¡¯t that mean that when he encountered an enemy, he could directly rush up and exchange his life with the enemy?


    It was also because of these two passive existences Zhou Feng himself would at most be slightly injured, while the enemy was very likely to die instantly when using this life exchange method,


    At the same time, if he was injured, he could slowly recover through his Self-Healing Constitution.


    Wasn¡¯t this a perfect match?


    Wang Ming probably wouldn¡¯t have thought that he would suddenly erupt and directly use a life-changing fighting style to sneak-attack him!


    ¡°It would be great if I could get some lethal poison!¡±


    Actually, poison was a handy method for cultivators below the Spiritual Altar realm.


    But where could he get lethal poison?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s original plan was to get a lethal poison, directly poisoning eldest Wang Ming along with him.


    In any case, even if he died, he would definitely not die on his knees.


    Now, if he could poison Wang Ming along with him, both sides would exchange their lives.


    Relying on his passive skills, his chances of winning did not seem low!

 Chapter 29

    After cultivating for a while, Zhou Feng got up and prepared to head to a nearby market the sect had opened, and all nearby cultivators would visit it to trade.


    At the same time, this market was a place where many inner disciples competed because there were too many benefits involved.


    In order to feed the Demon-Devouring Gu, Zhou Feng naturally found a job in the market. After all, the Demon-Devouring Gu consumed too many resources.


    At present, he needed to consume Primeval Blood Pills and rely on Spirit Stones to absorb Spiritual Qi.


    Even if Eldest Senior Brother kept sending things over, they were still not enough.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng wanted to create a side business, such as alchemy, refining weapons, and so on.


    Unfortunately, this side business was not something that ordinary people could create.


    These sideline jobs were basically all about inheritance.. It was impossible for ordinary people to come into contact with this knowledge. Therefore, he could only guard the market city¡¯s gate.


    And he continued to wait for the martial arts competition once a month.


    In the inner sect, the martial arts competition would be held as long as every month passed.


    This martial arts competition was mainly used to distribute various benefits, such as the Meat Gu Cave, the market shops, and other benefits.


    As long as you could get a good ranking in the martial arts competition, you would be able to obtain the corresponding resources.


    Thus, there were two kinds of people in the inner sect.


    One was naturally those who fought and worked hard, and they would do their best during


    every martial arts competition in order to get a good ranking.


    The other was those who chose to lie flat, meaning they would not compete as long as they could barely feed the Gu in their bodies.


    When their strength stagnated, they stopped and did not fight too much.


    There were many such disciples in the inner sect, and most of them chose to rely on other inner disciples. Or they could go to various places to guard.


    For example, the Meat Gu Cave¡¯s guarding disciples were such inner disciples who did not have the heart to compete.


    For them, waiting for death was the best choice.


    And the sect just happened to need some people to guard different places.


    Thus, these people who didn¡¯t participate in the martial arts competition were stationed in many places.


    They were garrisoned in many resource points at the foot of the mountain. They also didn¡¯t need to participate in the martial arts competition, and the fierce competition of the inner sect wouldn¡¯t affect them.


    However, the price they had to pay was that their cultivation would stagnate or even regress.


    In this regard, Zhou Feng naturally wouldn¡¯t choose to lie down.


    On the contrary, he urgently needed a large number of Spirit Stones. He had just discovered that the existence of Spirit Stones seemed to be able to speed up the progress bar on the skill panel.


    ¡°It seems to be a little more?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little uncertain. After all, the progress bar had increased too little.


    After thinking for a moment, he took out a Spirit Stone and placed it in his palm. Then, while absorbing the Spiritual Qi contained in the Spirit Stone, he carefully observed the progress bar on the skill panel.


    Indeed! Absorbing the Spiritual Qi contained in the Spirit Stone actually increased the progress bar of the skill.


    Although the progress was very slow, it was still better than not increasing at all.


    In this way, he had an additional goal.


    There were several goals that he urgently needed to accomplish.


    The first was to earn Spirit Stones and obtain more passive skills.


    This was the first task to be completed. More Spirit Stones meant more passive skills, which translated as mightier battle prowess.


    The mightier his battle prowess, the more resources he could obtain.


    ¡°Next is the method of raising Gu with Spirit Stones!¡±


    Besides Spirit Stones, what Zhou Feng wanted to know the most right now was the method of raising Gu.


    After becoming an inner disciple, he would have the opportunity to learn the method of raising Gu.


    However, if he wanted to learn the method of raising Gu, he would need to pay a large amount of sect merit points, which could only be obtained by completing some special missions.


    ¡°Troublesome!¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed in his heart and prepared to head to the market to be on duty.


    ¡­


    The Tri-Gu Sect specially established the mountainside market on the outside world.


    Usually, numerous itinerant cultivators and cultivators from other places gathered there.


    Therefore, this was also the largest resource exchange place within a few hundred kilometers.


    The Tri-Gu Sect stationed many disciples here, and even one of the nine Elders presided over this territory.


    At present, Zhou Feng was guarding a gate in the north as a gatekeeper disciple. He was dressed in sect attire and held a standard long spear in his hand.


    He looked very much like a gatekeeper of a mortal dynasty.


    There was also an inner disciple guarding the gate with him, but they were not familiar with each other, so they did not chat.


    There were not many people at the north gate. It had been a long time since someone entered the market.


    ¡°This person¡­¡±


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng saw a familiar figure.


    A group of people had arrived, and the most eye-catching one was the person sitting in the middle of the group.


    It was a woman, but her figure was gargantuan. From afar, she looked like a mountain of meat, weighing at least 300kg, and her breathing was like thunder.


    The most eye-catching thing was that the people who carried the palanquin under this woman were mostly handsome boys and men.


    And the one who followed behind was actually Lin Ming, who had been with Zhou Feng for some period.


    ¡°That person is Lin Ming, right?¡±


    Although Lin Ming¡¯s face was a little pale at this time, and his footsteps were a little unsteady, as if he had been sucked dry, he still recognized him at a glance.


    Back then, when Zhou Feng had heard that Lin Ming had become the lackey of an inner disciple, he was still a little surprised.


    Zhou Feng did not expect to meet him here today.


    Regarding this, he had nothing to comment on. He could only say that he was lucky that he had a skill panel.


    As the group got closer and closer, Lin Ming also noticed Zhou Feng, who was guarding the gate. It seemed that he did not expect the two of them to meet again under such circumstances.


    Lin Ming was a little flustered. He immediately lowered his head and did not dare to look at Zhou Feng.


    This was simply a large-scale social death. His former courtyard neighbor had seen him like this.


    ¡°Oh? This young man is so energetic! Are you interested in being my subordinate?¡±


    Originally, Zhou Feng meeting Lin Ming was just a small episode today.


    Unexpectedly, when the group reached the gate, the woman on the palanquin actually opened her mouth.


    Lin Xiaojiao squirmed her fat body and looked at Zhou Feng, who was guarding the gate.


    What followed was a heavy pressure.


    ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect that a mere Qi Gathering cultivator would have such thick Blood Qi! If I use it for dual cultivation, I should be able to break through to the Qi Condensation realm very soon!¡±


    Lin Xiaojiao was at the point of breaking through, and she had almost sucked dry all the lackeys under her.


    Therefore, it was imperative to find a new nutrition source, and coincidentally, Zhou Feng appeared in front of her.


    Wasn¡¯t this a coincidence?


    A Qi Gathering disciple guarding the gate probably wouldn¡¯t dare to reject her, Lin Xiaojiao.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face froze when he felt the heavy pressure.


    This was something he had never expected.

 Chapter 30

    Lin Xiaojiao could be considered an influential figure in the inner sect.


    This wasn¡¯t to say that her body size didn¡¯t match her name at all. It was because of her strength. If one wanted to make a name for themselves in the inner sect, the most basic thing was strength.


    As long as one was strong enough, many external factors could be ignored.


    It was rumored that Lin Xiaojiao cultivated a very special technique that allowed her to forcefully plunder the other half of her Essence Qi through dual cultivation.


    Moreover, as long as she was able to grasp this level properly, she would be able to plunder it repeatedly.


    Lin Xiaojiao had not looked like this at the beginning.


    Instead, she had been a genuine beauty with a very slim body.


    .


    However, because she had cultivated this technique, her body had accumulated a large amount of Essence Qi and Blood Qi.


    This Essence Qi could not be digested in a short period, so Lin Xiaojiao had become like this.


    ¡®It seems that I can only remain silent!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could only remain silent in the face of such a situation.


    At the same time, he was ready to fight.


    There was silence.


    Because Zhou Feng did not say a word, the scene immediately quieted down, and the atmosphere was a little strange.


    ¡°A mute? How can you be like this? If you are willing to be my subordinate, nod your head! I will not mistreat you!¡±


    Lin Xiaojiao took out a box.


    ¡°Inside is a 1,000-year-old Mountain Ginseng. As long as you agree, this is yours!¡±


    To be able to maintain so many playthings for her to play and cultivate, Lin Xiaojiao was naturally a rich woman.


    This was a 1,000-year-old Mountain Ginseng. It was definitely a good thing.


    As the saying went, ¡°As long as one obtains a long-lived pig, it can become a spirit.¡±


    Not to mention something like a Mountain Ginseng. By absorbing the sun and moon every day, one only needed to extract a portion of it. The Spiritual Qi contained within would be enough to support Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation for a long time.


    Still silent, Zhou Feng just stood there in a daze and did not answer.


    ¡°Interesting! It¡¯s not many who can reject a 1,000-year-old Mountain Ginseng! You should have just joined the inner sect not long ago, right?¡±


    Seeing this scene, Lin Xiaojiao suddenly laughed, and her body began to tremble.


    A gatekeeper was actually able to resist the temptation of a1,000-year-old Mountain Ginseng!? He definitely hadn¡¯t suffered much!


    They would have lost half their lives to obtain this 1,000-year-old Mountain Ginseng if it were anyone else.


    For example, the gatekeeper with Zhou Feng. When he saw Lin Xiaojiao take out the 1,000-year-old Mountain Ginseng, his eyes popped open.


    He wished he could just mention that he agreed to it.


    So what if she was fat? She would be no different than a regular woman if the lights were turned off. At most, he would lose some Essence Qi. With this 1,000-year-old Mountain Ginseng, he would be able to make up for everything.


    ¡®Danger!¡¯


    Just as Lin Xiaojiao was laughing out loud, Zhou Feng¡¯s Battle Instinct was suddenly triggered.


    The Spiritual Qi in his body gushed out, and its dark color gave people a sense of brutality.


    His appetite also started to affect Zhou Feng, and his stomach suddenly became hungry.


    He stomped his right foot, trampling a huge centipede to death.


    It was a huge, dark red centipede. If his Battle Instinct had not been triggered, Zhou Feng would not have noticed that such a centipede had already crawled to his feet and was ready to take a big bite.


    ¡®Bad luck! It¡¯s actually one of Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s starving ghosts!¡¯


    After seeing the Spiritual Qi that he released, Lin Xiaojiao instantly cursed in her heart.


    These evil ghosts were all food for the Grand Elder. Although her Master was also an Elder, he probably could not protect her against the Grand Elder.


    ¡°Hurry up and leave! It¡¯s a waste of time!¡± Lin Xiaojiao immediately urged the people carrying the palanquin to leave this place.


    She really didn¡¯t expect a Bitter Bamboo Peak disciple to come to the market city as a gatekeeper.


    What a weirdo!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s action was simply weird in regard to being a Bitter Bamboo Peak disciple.


    After all, the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples would directly search for people to fight and collect protection fees once they ran out of resources.


    The monthly martial arts competition was also the main means for Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples to earn money for cultivation resources.


    To guard the main gate like this, this person must be mentally ill!


    For Tri-Gu disciples, taking advantage of the side door was always the first choice.


    Completing a mission peacefully? That was the reflection of not having enough strength.


    Why not just wait for others to complete the mission and directly split the loot in half?


    This was actually one of the reasons Xiong Dan couldn¡¯t survive in the inner sect.


    As long as you weren¡¯t strong enough, you wouldn¡¯t be able to complete more than half of the sect¡¯s missions.


    For example, the inner sect¡¯s Wind and Cloud disciples usually only cultivated and fought.


    And there were many things to do in the sect, such as feeding the Meat Gu, refining pills, mining, collecting taxes, and so on, which were distributed to the other inner disciples.


    The inner sect had already formed a deformed ecosystem.


    ¡°So hungry!¡±


    Lin Xiaojiao wanted to leave quickly, but Zhou Feng blocked her way.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body suddenly seemed to wake up, urging him to devour Lin Xiaojiao in front of him.


    Even though he had the Level-2 Gluttony and was not affected by his appetite, he could not get rid of the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s influence.


    ¡°Bad luck! Bad luck! Bad luck!¡±


    Feeling Zhou Feng¡¯s strong Spiritual Qi, Lin Xiaojiao said bad luck three times. Then, she threw a bottle of Blood Pills at him.


    ¡°Insufficient!¡±


    His voice was a little hoarse, but his expression was still very calm.


    Zhou Feng was trying his best to control the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body right now.


    ¡®This Demon-Devouring Gu is too strange.¡¯


    Just by using Spiritual Qi, it had such a huge reaction.


    He needed large amounts of Blood Pills or high-grade items to feed the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    Thus, he directly said the word ¡®insufficient¡¯.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death! Don¡¯t think that I¡¯m afraid of you and Bitter Bamboo Peak!¡±


    After hearing Zhou Feng say the word ¡®insufficient¡¯, Lin Xiaojiao almost thought she had misheard.


    Why did all these random people dare to threaten her?


    So what if he was from Bitter Bamboo Peak?


    As she spoke, Lin Xiaojiao¡¯s body began to expand again, and a wave of heat slowly spread out from her body.


    The person who was still carrying the palanquin couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer and directly half-knelt on the ground.


    ¡°I was wondering why there was someone blocking the gate. So it was Sister Xiaojiao!¡±


    It immediately looked like they were about to start a fight.


    However, a slightly playful voice slowly entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    In the blink of an eye, a woman slowly walked between the two parties.


    The woman attracted everyone¡¯s gazes instantly. Her long black hair fluttered in the wind like willow catkins, and her pure white flowing celestial dress also swayed slightly.


    The most eye-catching thing was that the flowing celestial dress had very little fabric, and most of her fair and tender skin was exposed to the sunlight.


    The mountain peaks in front of her chest were also extremely perky, and all the men present suddenly felt a wave of heat.


    She was bewitchingly beautiful. Her face clearly looked quite pure, but it gave people a sense of seduction.


    Compared to Lin Xiaojiao, this woman completely killed Lin Xiaojiao.


    To be honest, this was the first time Zhou Feng had seen such a top-notch beauty.


    At that moment, his heart beat a little faster.


    But in just a second, Zhou Feng regained his calm. His Battle Instinct kept warning him that the woman in front of him was very dangerous.


    ¡°B*tch!¡±


    Looking at the dazed faces of her men, Lin Xiaojiao was furious.

 Chapter 31 - Little Junior Sisters Sneak Attack

    Liu Yan raised her eyebrows slightly and gave Zhou Feng a mere glance.


    Instantly, the faces of the other men present faintly revealed a trace of envy.


    To be able to attract the interest of such a top-notch beauty, this guy was too lucky!


    A trace of envy could not help but emerge from the bottom of their hearts.


    ¡®There¡¯s something strange!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was very calm in the face of this development, but he was still a little uncomfortable.


    ¡°Senior Brother seems to be a little bad!¡±


    Liu Yan seemed to have noticed his change, and her face turned slightly red.


    Then, she covered her face shyly. That flirtatious look made many people forget where they were.


    ¡°Too beautiful! Too beautiful!¡±


    ¡°If I could have sex with such a woman for one night, I would even be willing to die!¡±


    ¡°Right! Right!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people were completely mesmerized.


    ¡°They¡¯re courting death! They actually dare to praise this b*tch¡¯s beauty!?¡±


    Seeing how unbearably ugly these masked men were, Lin Xiaojiao immediately flew into a rage and struck out with her palm.


    This palm was pure power and did not contain any Spiritual Qi at all.


    Like a flood, a terrifyingly huge force poured down on one of the masked men beside her.


    The head of the masked man who was hit directly caved in, while his spine was directly split open, and his back flew out. Pieces of flesh and bones flew out.


    It only took one second for a person to turn into a puddle of meat.


    Lin Xiaojiao circulated her spiritual power and cleaned up the blood and flesh remnants on her hand.


    When the other masked men witnessed this scene, they were so scared that they wet their pants and collapsed on the ground.


    ¡°No! Baby! I was possessed just now!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Baby! You will always be my favorite little darling!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! My love for my baby will never change even if the seas run dry and the rocks rot!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The slightly alert masked men immediately began to talk about love.


    Their words were extremely disgusting, and when they spoke, they even crawled toward Lin Xiaojiao like a puppy begging for its master¡¯s forgiveness.


    When Zhou Feng heard these words, he felt goosebumps all over his back. His facial paralysis that he had been maintaining all this while was almost broken.


    The most surprising thing was that after Lin Xiaojiao heard these words, she seemed to be enjoying it.


    She didn¡¯t seem as angry anymore!


    ¡°Good, good, good! At least you guys have a conscience! As for the others, all of you can go to hell!¡±


    Just as the anger on her face disappeared, Lin Xiaojiao exploded once again. She didn¡¯t say anything just now, but she used pure power to kill them all.


    Lin Ming was one of them. After seeing the scene just now, Lin Ming was already scared silly.


    Moreover, Lin Ming wouldn¡¯t say those extremely mushy words.


    Hence, with just a slap, Lin Ming turned into a lump of meat on the spot.


    Such a terrifying scene!


    Liu Yan, who was next to him, still had a smile on her face. She shook her head and slowly floated toward Zhou Feng.


    She didn¡¯t seem to be scared at all. Instead, she seemed to be used to it.


    A gust of fragrant wind blew toward Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    Liu Yan came in front of Zhou Feng, her faint smile still hanging on the corner of her mouth.


    ¡®Troublesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng cursed in his heart and bit his lower lip slightly.


    The spiritual power in his body immediately boiled up. As long as Liu Yan dared to approach him, he would punch her directly.


    ¡°Interesting! You¡¯re clearly like this, but you can still act so calm!¡±


    Sensing the traces of killing intent that Zhou Feng was emitting, the smile on Liu Yan¡¯s face disappeared. Instead, it turned into a trace of curiosity.


    ¡°Do you know how to poop?¡±


    Zhou Feng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his mouth and said this sentence.


    ¡°What?¡±


    Liu Yan¡¯s face revealed an inexplicable expression.


    This was actually Zhou Feng¡¯s experience from his previous life. As long as he couldn¡¯t control his desires, he would imagine all kinds of disgusting images of young ladies, such as using their hands to wipe their sh*t.


    This could naturally make his desires fade, and he could enter the Sage realm.


    ¡°Sl*t! I¡¯m in a hurry today. I¡¯ll teach you a lesson in the future!¡±


    After finishing off her lackeys, Lin Xiaojiao had the remaining people carry the palanquin and leave.


    ¡°And you!¡±


    Halfway through, Lin Xiaojiao turned around and glared at Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng stored the bottle of Blood Pills Lin Xiaojiao had given him in his storage bag and didn¡¯t reply.


    ¡°There aren¡¯t many people in the sect who are as interesting as you! Let¡¯s meet again in the future!¡±


    Liu Yan laughed like a silver bell.


    The wisp of fragrance slowly left again.


    ¡°Two more big problems!¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed in his heart.


    At present, he needed more resources to break through to the Qi Induction realm faster.


    It seemed that he couldn¡¯t continue being a gatekeeper.


    Moreover, from what the fat woman had said just now, the Bitter Bamboo Peak seemed to have a special way of earning Spirit Stones.


    He might as well go back and ask his Eldest Senior Brother.


    The efficiency of guarding the gate was indeed a little low.


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng decided to give up and go back to Bitter Bamboo Peak to take a look.


    Looking at his departing back, his gatekeeping partner was stunned.


    This was too fantastic!


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng, who had quit his job as a gatekeeper, slowly returned to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    His Eldest Senior Brother seemed to have devoted himself to cultivation in the past two days, so he also had a few days of peace and quiet.


    If this was in the past, Wang Ming would have appeared in front of him long ago.


    ¡°Senior Brother! Come with me quickly! Eldest Senior Brother is going to harm you!¡±


    Just as he returned to the foot of Bitter Bamboo Peak, a person suddenly rushed out and shouted at him.


    Without giving him a chance to react, she directly pulled him to walk in a certain direction.


    At that moment, Battle Instinct was triggered again, and a wave of malice swirled in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    Only then did he recognize that the person in front of him was¡­ his Little Junior Sister?


    She had joined Bitter Bamboo Peak not long after he joined, and because she was relatively young, he directly called her Little Junior Sister.


    When she had first joined Bitter Bamboo Peak, she looked extremely innocent with two soaring buns tied to her head.


    She had even been scared to tears by those Senior Brothers and Sisters.


    Therefore, his impression of Little Junior Sister was a little better than strangers.


    But now, Little Junior Sister seemed to be a little different from her usual behavior.


    On the surface, he didn¡¯t see any flaws, but the Gold passive skill, Battle Instinct, had been warning him all along.


    Soon, she pulled him to a very remote location.


    Zhou Feng felt the gentle little hand that was pulling him with one hand while he used the other to quietly grab a handful of lime.


    After running and running, the surrounding environment completely changed.


    ¡°Senior Brother¡­¡±


    Just as she stopped, Little Junior Sister turned around and wanted to say something.


    Surprisingly, Zhou Feng directly attacked her with the lime in his hand.


    Strike first to gain the upper hand! Strike later to suffer!


    With that thought in mind, Zhou Feng struck directly.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The lime blinded Little Junior Sister¡¯s eyes, and she let out a scream.


    ¡°Senior Brother! What are you doing! I¡¯m saving you!¡±


    There seemed to be a hint of surprise in her words. She seemed to want to explain something.


    However, Zhou Feng had already entered battle mode. As long as he was in battle mode, he basically could not speak.


    Therefore, Little Junior Sister could only hear a crack in the air..

 Chapter 32 - Devouring the Demon-Devouring Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng smashed Little Junior Sister¡¯s skull.


    After the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s transformation to the Demon-Devouring Gu, his Spiritual Qi had also undergone some changes.


    His Spiritual Qi seemed to have some devouring properties now.


    Little Junior Sister¡¯s protective Spiritual Qi did not withstand too much damage and was directly devoured.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in Little Junior Sister¡¯s body also seemed to have exploded.


    The terrifying Blood Qi instantly boiled, and the wound on her head began to heal.


    However, this seemed very imposing, and in the next second, she was smashed to death by his fists.


    Little Junior Sister, who was already on her last breath, asked somewhat unwillingly, ¡°Why? How did you find out?¡±


    Originally, she had already planned it out. She would bring Zhou Feng to a remote place and then poison him to launch a sneak attack.


    However, Zhou Feng had seen through her plan from the very beginning. In the end, he had even taken the initiative to attack her.


    Little Junior Sister admitted that she usually did not reveal too many flaws.


    How did he see through the little white flower¡¯s persona she maintained from the beginning to the end in an instant?


    ¡°There are still good people in the Tri-Gu Sect?¡± Zhou Feng asked a rhetorical question.


    Evidently, he did not believe that there would be a good person in such a sect.


    In such an environment, even a fool would not believe that a good person could survive.


    A Junior Sister whom he had only known for a short while actually warned him to be careful of his Eldest Senior Brother?


    Did he need her to warn him? Wang Ming had no intention of hiding it!


    It had always been on the surface.


    Of course, his Battle Instinct was also a crucial factor. Otherwise, he would not have attacked so decisively.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    Little Junior Sister wanted to say something, but Zhou Feng kicked again, sending her head flying and rolling far away.


    The longer he stayed in the Tri-Gu Sect, the more he felt that he had been assimilated.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart did not waver at all when doing such a thing.


    In fact, after Little Junior Sister¡¯s body stopped squirming, he cut open her chest and dug out the already dead Demon-Devouring Gu.


    This dead Demon-Devouring Gu was the best tonic for the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    Sure enough, the Demon-Devouring Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body immediately became restless.


    He resisted the nausea and swallowed the blood-stained Demon-Devouring Gu.


    In an instant, his Demon-Devouring Gu directly swallowed the dead Gu.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu also started to reverse-feed for the first time, so large amounts of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi burst out from his body.


    He used the Demon-Devouring Technique on the spot and swallowed all the Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi.


    It seemed that because they were of the same origin, the Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi were swallowed smoothly.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s realm suddenly soared, from the 3drd Level to the 5th Level of Qi Gathering.


    It was so easy to break through realms! All one needed to do was to directly swallow a Demon-Devouring Gu.


    ¡°There¡¯s more? Is it Level-2 Gluttony¡¯s passive effect!?¡±


    After the Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi were digested, the extra Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi actually rushed out of the body.


    This was Gluttony¡¯s passive effect!


    After Gluttony rose from Level 1 to Level 2, the effect was to swallow anything and gain additional attributes.


    Now, it was the same with the Demon-Devouring Gu. After swallowing Little Junior Sister¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu, apart from the Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi contained in her Gu, Gluttony also returned some additional bonuses passively.


    This pushed his realm forward by another small step.


    He was about to break through to the 6th Level of Qi Gathering!


    ¡°No wonder! No wonder everyone on Bitter Bamboo Peak looked at me with drooling faces!¡±


    After all, before his Junior Sister joined Bitter Bamboo Peak, his realm was the lowest on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    And swallowing a Demon-Devouring Gu actually had so many benefits. This was very hard to endure.


    ¡°Eh? The progress bar is also full?¡±


    What surprised him the most was that the progress bar on the skill panel was actually full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Subconsciously, he directly drew the passive skill.


    Now, he didn¡¯t want to hold it in anymore. His mentality had changed from that moment.


    Nature Affinity (Level 1): It¡¯s very easy to gain the favor of flowers, birds, insects, and beasts. At the same time, if you¡¯re in the wild, you¡¯ll become one with the surrounding environment.


    This was also a nature-supporting-type skill.


    It didn¡¯t seem to be very powerful as it could only be used under certain circumstances.


    Nonetheless, it did not matter. After all, the passive skills were picked up for nothing.


    As long as he had enough passive skills, he would receive a huge boost under any circumstances.


    ¡°Looks like I need to make some changes!¡±


    Looking at the progress bar that had returned to 0, Zhou Feng began to alter his original plan.


    His original plan was to continue to struggle, and he would surpass everyone by relying on the passive skills.


    Unfortunately, this method did not seem to work in the Tri-Gu Sect because one would never know where the danger came from.


    In the Tri-Gu Sect, as long as one became stronger crazily, they would be able to get out of their current state.


    Earn a few cultivation resources by guarding the gate? And then slowly improve?


    That was impossible! In such an evil sect, everything had to be done quickly and efficiently.


    Previously, he seemed to have heard Lin Xiaojiao say that Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples would not earn resources on their own.


    Instead, they relied on their strength to snatch and take. No wonder the Bitter Bamboo Peak Senior Brothers and Sisters usually only cultivated. They were not worried about not having any cultivation resources at all.


    It could be said that the rules of the inner sect were much more relaxed than he had imagined.


    As long as he did not break any unspoken rules, he would be allowed to do anything out of the ordinary.


    ¡°Looks like I need to find out how the protection fee is charged! Next is the hunting plan!¡±


    Other than the protection fee, Zhou Feng had another plan in mind.


    That was to hunt down the Bitter Bamboo Peak Senior Brothers and Sisters because the benefits that Little Junior Sister¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu had given him were too many.


    If he devoured the Demon-Devouring Gu of his Senior Brothers and Sisters, who were of a higher realm than him, would his realm directly break through to Qi Condensation? Qi Condensation!?


    In his heart, there was no need for such a sect to exist at all.


    Using humans as fodder to feed Gu? This kind of behavior was not worthy of forgiveness!


    At this time, after Zhou Feng collected Little Junior Sister¡¯s corpse, he was also preparing to return to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    His Junior Sister didn¡¯t have much on her, not even a few Blood Pills.


    This speculation was obviously due to the lack of cultivation resources, and the Demon-Devouring Gu required a large amount of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi every day.


    Only then did the Junior Sister choose to attack Zhou Feng.


    Speaking of which, she really had no other choice. After all, if she couldn¡¯t feed the Demon-Devouring Gu, then her life would be in danger at any time.


    However, Zhou Feng had never had this kind of trouble.


    Before joining the inner sect, he had robbed Zhao Jun¡¯s resources and even obtained his storage bag.


    After arriving at Bitter Bamboo Peak, Wang Ming kept giving him resources to this day.


    His Demon-Devouring Gu really had never experienced the feeling of being hungry.


    ¡°It¡¯s all this sect¡¯s fault!¡±


    Sighing, Zhou Feng slowly walked toward Bitter Bamboo Peak..

 Chapter 33 - Collecting Protection Fees

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After returning to Bitter Bamboo Peak, Zhou Feng directly cultivated for an entire night.


    To be honest, compared to other places, the only benefit of Bitter Bamboo Peak was that there were no compulsory missions.


    In other places, almost all new disciples would be forced to participate in various missions.


    It was the same even if you were the son of an Elder because the Tri-Gu Sect was a sect where the strong preyed on the weak.


    As long as you were not strong enough, you would have to deal with a lot of things.


    Using the name of an Elder to suppress an inner disciple?


    That would only cause more people to ostracize you or even secretly eliminate you.


    The environment in the inner sect was so intense that one moment of carelessness could result in sudden death.


    Under such circumstances, who would care if you were the offspring of an Elder?


    Compared to the outer sect, the inner sect did not have that much care.


    Of course, having a background was also a very important thing.


    After all, having a background meant that they could obtain a lot of additional resources, and their strength would increase quickly.


    For example, Lin Xiaojiao and Liu Yan, who Zhou Feng had met before, had an Elder standing behind them.


    It was precisely because of this that they were able to become outstanding figures in the inner sect.


    ¡°There¡¯s definitely not enough lime! I have to concoct poisons!¡±


    Zhou Feng was already planning to teach himself how to concoct poisons.


    This was because when it involved weapons like lime powder, the stronger the opponent, the weaker the power.


    Once you spread the lime, other people¡¯s spiritual power would be able to block it all.


    Moreover, some experienced people would understand what was going on with just a move of your hand.


    That was why he started to teach himself how to concoct poisons.


    Regarding alchemy and poison formulas, there were many books in the Scripture Pavillion on the main peak.


    However, this required exchanging merit points, and the best way to obtain merit points was through sect missions. Or, he could directly use cultivation resources to exchange for sect merit points.


    Unfortunately, he didn¡¯t have any of these things.


    ¡°Looks like I can only go to the market to collect protection fees!¡±


    Zhou Feng had previously inquired about how the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples collected protection fees.


    Actually, those who paid protection fees were people outside of the sect that came to the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s marketplace to do business.


    If they wanted to continue doing business peacefully, they had to find people from the Tri-Gu Sect as backers.


    Thus, the Shang Clan in the mountainside marketplace basically had inner disciples backing them up.


    Usually, when inner disciples fought against each other, other than fighting for the management rights of the Meat Gu Cave, they would also fight for the clans¡¯ support.


    The stronger you were, the more clans would naturally take a liking to you and offer protection fees.


    However, the more clans one protected, the more people would have designs on you.


    Thus, in the inner sect, one¡¯s strength depended on how many shops they had behind them.


    Once your strength was insufficient or regressed, other people would take the opportunity to cause trouble and snatch the clan one was protecting.


    When he learned about this, Zhou Feng immediately felt a sense of d¨¦j¨¤ vu.


    Wasn¡¯t this the same as a hooligan snatching territory and collecting insurance fees?


    Zhou Feng planned to visit the mountainside market the next morning, and it just so happened that he had not visited this market before.


    It was a good opportunity to see if there was anything useful in the market.


    Early the next morning¡­


    Zhou Feng left Bitter Bamboo Peak early and headed to the mountainside market.


    The sky had just brightened, and there were already many people in the market.


    Many people directly set up stalls by the roadside, and the stalls were basically filled with ordinary things, such as medicinal herbs, demon beast meat, and so on.


    This demon beast meat actually contained a large amount of Blood Qi, and a portion of inner disciples would also eat this to replenish their Blood Qi.


    Unfortunately, these demon beasts¡¯ levels were too low, so the demon beast meat was basically used as fodder for the Meat Gu.


    The qualified inner disciples consumed all kinds of medicinal pills every day. As for hunting some high-level demon beasts, they needed to leave Mount Gu.


    This was because almost all the high-level demon beasts in Mount Gu had been eradicated.


    The sect missions also included clearing out demon beasts above the Qi Gathering realm all year round.


    As for these stalls, Zhou Feng skipped them because only those who had shops could afford the protection fee.


    After walking around for a while, he suddenly found that someone was causing trouble in a shop.


    ¡°How is it? Have you considered it? Young Master Zhao Wu is about to break through to the Qi Condensation realm and will soon reach the Spiritual Altar realm!¡±


    ¡°Choosing Young Master Zhao is absolutely the right choice!¡±


    ¡°Jia Ju was injured two days ago. He shouldn¡¯t be able to protect you guys!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A few lackeys who hadn¡¯t even reached the Qi Gathering realm started spouting nonsense at the shop entrance.


    Zhao Wu again?


    This was really fate!


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the name Zhao Wu. He seemed to be quite fated with this Zhao Wu. He didn¡¯t expect to run into his subordinates here.


    Facing the threats from the people in front of him, Qian Shang had a bitter smile on his face.


    It was truly a bad time. He had just moved to this market city and had encountered such a situation.


    In order to avoid his enemies, Qian Shang had just moved to this Tri-Gu market city from another place. This was because he had a Gu-taming method, which could provide an endless supply of Gu.


    And the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s Penta-Poison faction just happened to require a large number of poisonous Gu and poisons to satisfy the Penta-Poison Gu.


    If the Bloodthirsty Gu needed Blood Qi, then the Penta-Poison Gu needed all kinds of deadly poisons.


    Thus, Qian Shang thought that it should not be difficult for him to settle down in this Tri-Gu market.


    Not long ago, Qian Shang had spent most of his wealth to rent such a shop, and at the same time, he found an inner disciple named Jia Ju to be his backer.


    Unexpectedly, he had just paid the protection fee, yet Jia Ju got injured. Hence, Zhao Wu¡¯s men targeted Qian Shang¡¯s shop.


    Jia Ju simultaneously protected several shops, so he was powerless now and couldn¡¯t help Qian Shang at all.


    ¡°You¡¯d better talk to Young Master Jia about this! After all, if I agree, Young Master Jia won¡¯t be able to explain himself!¡±


    Qian Shang still had a bitter smile on his face. He planned to directly push the problem to Jia Ju.


    However, the small fries opposite him didn¡¯t fall for this trick at all.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter! As long as you agree, even if Jia Ju has objections, Young Master Zhao will directly shoulder this burden!¡±


    Facing these small fries¡¯ solemn promises, Qian Shang could only continue to smile apologetically.


    Qian Shang had already investigated the so-called Young Master Zhao.


    This was only a newly promoted inner disciple of Purple Bamboo Peak. Although he was very talented, his battle prowess could only be put into question.


    Qian Shang didn¡¯t want to pay the protection fee, only for someone else to beat this Young Master Zhao to the ground later.


    Therefore, this choice had to be made carefully.


    ¡°Boss! Is your backer gone? Why don¡¯t you consider me!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng, who had been hiding and listening for a long time, suddenly came out.


    ¡°You?¡±


    ¡°You are¡­¡±


    His sudden appearance instantly attracted everyone¡¯s attention.


    Qian Shang instantly looked at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Qi Gathering realm?¡±


    When he found out that he was only in the Qi Gathering realm, the hope in his eyes instantly disappeared.


    Obviously, a mere Qi Gathering cultivator could not protect this shop at all.


    One had to know that Zhao Wu and Jia Ju were at least in the Qi Induction realm. Although one¡¯s realm did not mean everything, the strength of those in the higher strata was at least guaranteed..

 Chapter 34 - Side Effects? Thats Even Better!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    The small fries representing Zhao Wu were instantly unhappy when they saw that Zhou Feng had actually dared to antagonize them.


    Even though they were facing an inner disciple in the Qi Gathering realm, these small fries were still very arrogant.


    They could only see that Zhou Feng was in the Qi Gathering realm.


    Compared to their Master, the difference was not just a small gap.


    Not to mention, recently, Zhao Wu had made quite a name for himself in the inner sect.


    Normally, when inner disciples heard the name Zhao Wu, they would avoid conflict.


    This was because, as inner disciples, the difference between ordinary inner disciples and elite inner disciples was too big.


    If they wanted to obtain more for a longer period, they would have to look at the next dish. If the situation was not right, they would directly give in.


    This was very normal. When their strength rose, later on, they would take revenge.


    ¡°Get lost!¡±


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to talk nonsense. He directly used his actual actions to prove his value.


    A shadow flashed past, and the few underlings present were all kicked away. These pieces of scum who were not even in the Qi Gathering realm were naturally not his match.


    ¡°Have you thought about it?¡±


    After kicking these underlings away, an impatient expression appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    Every time he used his spiritual power, he would always feel a lot of negative emotions welling up in his heart. Therefore, his current expression was no longer as good as before.


    Black Spiritual Qi slowly surged into his fists, and a suffocating aura pressed down on Qian Shang¡¯s body.


    ¡°We agree! From now on, our family¡¯s business will depend on this Young Master!¡±


    Before Qian Shang could give an answer, a voice came from behind the door of the shop.


    ¡®It seems to be a woman¡¯s voice?¡¯


    After hearing this voice, Zhou Feng calmed down slightly.


    ¡°My name is Zhou Feng! I¡¯m from Bitter Bamboo Peak! If you have any problems in the future, just send someone to Bitter Bamboo Peak to look for me!¡±


    After saying this, Zhou Feng turned around and left.


    If everything went smoothly, Qian Shang would send the protection fee to him later.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng had to fulfill his duty and protect the merchant¡¯s shop.


    A sign with Zhou Feng¡¯s name and the mountain peak he was from could be hung outside the shop.


    Regarding this, an unspoken rule had long been formed in the market city.


    After all, such an ecological environment had been formed for a long time, and many things could be traced.


    Zhou Feng, who realized that something was wrong with him, left the market in a hurry. He had just realized the drawback of cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    Every time he circulated his Spiritual Qi, all kinds of negative emotions would well up in his heart.


    Given his character, he definitely wouldn¡¯t have been so impatient just now.


    At that moment, he even wanted to directly attack Qian Shang.


    Sure enough, demonic techniques were demonic techniques. They advanced very quickly, and the side effects were very obvious.


    If he continued to cultivate, he might become as crazy as his Eldest Senior Brother.


    ¡®But I don¡¯t have a solution right now! Then¡­¡¯


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng was out of ideas.


    It was impossible to get rid of the side effects of cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique unless he stopped cultivating or directly crippled his cultivation.


    It would be better to commit suicide in that case.


    Having no cultivation in the Tri-Gu Sect was equivalent to suicide.


    Thus, Zhou Feng had a thought.


    Since the side effect was so obvious, then what was there to worry about!


    Sensing the serious side effect of the Demon-Devouring Technique, not only did he not have the intention to stop cultivating, but it even stimulated him. This side effect would come no matter what, so he simply discarded his worries and charged forward.


    Now that his cultivation realm was low and his strength was also low, it was almost impossible for him to find a solution.


    In that case, perhaps there would be a solution when he reached the Spiritual Altar realm?


    Since the Demon-Devouring Technique had such a huge side effect, how did the First Elder deal with it?


    There was definitely a solution to this problem. If he were to cower, he could only wait for death.


    After thinking through this point, Zhou Feng decided to initiate his hunting plan the next day.


    ¡­


    While Zhou Feng decided to let loose, Qian Shang returned to the back of the shop.


    ¡°Daughter! Did you say something just now because that person has great potential?¡±


    Qian Shang¡¯s face was extremely pained, but if he could really find a reliable backer, then it would not be too bad.


    The reason Qian Shang thought this way was entirely because of his daughter.


    His daughter¡¯s name was Qian Qianqian. From this name, one could tell how miserly Qian Shang was.


    Even the name he gave his daughter was Qian Qianqian.


    Such a miser was willing to spend a lot of money because of his daughter¡¯s suggestion.


    Qian Qianqian had been born blind, but her senses were very sharp. She could foresee some dangers. If anything went wrong, she would sweat all over, and her heart would beat wildly.


    At the same time, Qian Qianqian had a little Treasure Mouse. This little Treasure Mouse could detect people who pretended to be pigs to eat tigers, and it could also find some treasures.


    It was precisely because of this Treasure Mouse¡¯s special ability that Qian Shang and his daughter had been able to escape all the way to this Tri-Gu market city.


    They had even been able to open up shops in such a demonic sect.


    Now, Qian Shang was hoping that Qian Qianqian had chosen Zhou Feng as her backer because the little Treasure Mouse had detected that Zhou Feng was a wolf in sheep¡¯s clothing.


    That was why she had chosen Zhou Feng as her backer.


    Otherwise, he might have to pay a huge price again.


    A beautiful woman was sitting on a rocking chair, her eyes covered by a piece of cloth. Her hand was gently stroking a little white mouse.


    ¡°If I hadn¡¯t made a sound just now, Father, you would have been in danger! I could feel the killing intent of that person! Little White was also very anxious just now! It almost ran away!¡±


    Qian Qianqian¡¯s tone was calm as she explained calmly.


    ¡°It can¡¯t be! Would that person dare to kill people in the market city? It¡¯s the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s rule that you can¡¯t kill people in the market city!


    ¡°And just because of this, he wants to kill people?¡±


    Qian Shang¡¯s forehead broke out in cold sweat after listening to his daughter¡¯s explanation.


    He had just made a trip to the door of death.


    This was too dangerous!


    Compared to the Eastern Land, this was indeed the demonic paradise.


    ¡°The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s rules only restrict outsiders, not their own disciples!


    ¡°And that person is from Bitter Bamboo Peak. In the future, we should be able to be safe for a period!¡±


    Qian Qianqian¡¯s tone was still very calm. It was obvious that she had some understanding of Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    ¡°Bitter Bamboo Peak? Is there anything special about it?¡± Qian Shang had no understanding of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s various peaks, so he directly asked that question.


    ¡°Very special! I heard that the people on Bitter Bamboo Peak are all crazy and battle maniacs. The other inner Tri-Gu disciples usually do not dare to provoke the Bitter Bamboo Peak people!


    ¡°Moreover, Young Master Zhou Feng seems to be somewhat different from the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples that I know!


    ¡°You can invest appropriately!¡±


    Qian Qianqian gave a suggestion based on her intuition.


    ¡°I can try investing!?¡±


    After Qian Shang heard this, he couldn¡¯t help but recall what he had experienced on the way to the Tri-Gu Sect..

 Chapter 35 - Primitive Hand-to-Hand Combat

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After listening to his daughter, Qian Shang could not help but think of the time when they had been fleeing for their lives.


    His daughter had also asked him to invest in a little beggar.


    At that time, he had still been somewhat hesitant and only paid a small price.


    It was precisely because of this little beggar¡¯s help that they had been able to safely escape to the area under the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s jurisdiction.


    Ever since that little beggar, Qian Shang had never heard his daughter say that she wanted to invest in another person.


    Even their previous backer, Jia Ju, had not received such treatment.


    Qian Shang did not expect his daughter to actually suggest investing in Zhou Feng this time. It seemed that Young Master Zhou Feng had potential!


    Thinking about his previous encounter, Qian Shang instantly made up his mind.


    If he wanted to play, he had to play a big game! It was best if he could really find a big backer!


    Otherwise, there would be no way to move forward.


    ¡°Father! You haven¡¯t told me about the interesting things in the market today!¡±


    Qian Qianqian slowly opened her mouth while Qian Shang was gnashing his teeth in the midst of steeling himself to play big.


    Qian Qianqian was blind yet had a beautiful face, so she basically did not leave the house. She usually counted on Qian Shang to recount some interesting happenings in the market to relieve her boredom.


    At the same time, Qian Qianqian could analyze a lot of things through these bits and pieces of information.


    It could be said that Qian Qianqian contributed a lot to the establishment of this shop.


    ¡°Okay, okay, okay! Father will tell you about it later!¡±


    Qian Shang was preparing to invite some workers back. Previously, due to problems with his backer, most of the shop¡¯s staff hadn¡¯t come to work.


    Now, he had to hire new staff and quickly send the protection fee to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    It was worth mentioning that Zhao Wu¡¯s henchmen had just disappeared. Evidently, they had realized that something was wrong and ran away.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng soon returned to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    The place was the same as before. There was no change.


    Everyone looked like starving ghosts. They were either cultivating in seclusion or scheming against each other.


    The other peaks still had all sorts of rules, but Bitter Bamboo Peak didn¡¯t have any.


    Harming a fellow disciple? This might be a big crime in the other peaks, but that was not the case for Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    This also made it convenient for Minister Zhou to act.


    ¡°Senior Brother Zhou! I have something I want to consult you on!¡±


    He directly chose a target.


    This Senior Brother Zhou had the same surname as him and had joined Bitter Bamboo Peak for quite some time. His cultivation was at the 9th Level of Qi Gathering, which was much higher than his cultivation level.


    However, this cultivation level was already considered to be at the bottom of Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Usually, quite a few Senior Brothers would keep an eye on Senior Brother Zhou. Once Senior Brother Zhou broke through, it was very likely that he would be eaten.


    At present, the Senior Brothers and Sisters didn¡¯t find it worthwhile to make a move on the Qi Gathering cultivators on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Even Zhou Feng had many people secretly spying on him daily.


    He noticed that Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s mouth kept twitching, and at the same time, he would occasionally let out an ambiguous laugh.


    Under the influence of the Demon-Devouring Gu, there were not many normal people on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Thus, Zhou Feng was already used to such a strange appearance.


    He even felt that he was a little crazy.


    ¡°Oh? What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Hearing his call, Senior Brother Zhou was a little surprised, so he turned around and replied.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel a greedy gaze sizing him up. This kind of gaze, which was like a fool looking at a beautiful woman, made people feel a chill without hiding it.


    ¡°Let¡¯s talk somewhere else!¡±


    Zhou Feng chose to change location first. It was really inconvenient to make a move on Bitter Bamboo Peak because there were too many obstacles. Even if he succeeded, others might rob the fruits of success.


    ¡°Move to another location? Alright! Alright!¡±


    Senior Brother Zhou suddenly let out a strange laugh and then stopped.


    It was obvious that Senior Brother Zhou had the same thoughts as Zhou Feng. He had also set his sights on him.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart became even more determined upon seeing this.


    Soon, the two of them walked down Bitter Bamboo Peak, with a few pairs of eyes staring intently at their backs.


    Zhou Feng led Senior Brother Zhou slowly into the depths of the forest.


    The surroundings became completely devoid of any traces of people.


    ¡°Hehe! Hehehe!¡±


    The more remote the surroundings became, the more Senior Brother Zhou let out strange peals of laughter.


    Black Spiritual Qi had already slowly seeped out of Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s body.


    Finally, Senior Brother Zhou couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer and shouted, ¡°Junior Brother!¡±


    At the same time, he pounced on Zhou Feng, and saliva even flew out of his mouth during that process.


    Zhou Feng was already prepared for this, and all the spiritual power in his body exploded.


    A punch broke through the surrounding air and directly struck Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s stomach.


    A passive attack that was filled with aura was instantly triggered!


    Zhou Feng had made ample preparations for this hunting plan.


    First, he had accumulated his aura, forming a blade, and then amplified his attack with Bone Coating¡¯s passive effect.


    He was able to seize a huge advantage from the start thanks to the two passive skills.


    Sure enough, under the support of the passive skills, Zhou Feng¡¯s punch was exceptionally sharp.


    In an instant, it broke through Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s protective Spiritual Qi and went through his intestines. His entire arm went through Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s stomach and exited from his back, along with some blood clots and intestines.


    Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s sneak attack also broke through Zhou Feng¡¯s protective Spiritual Qi, but it was blocked by the membrane coating his bones.


    Even so, a few long scratches were left on his chest.


    Senior Brother Zhou was stunned, but only for a moment. He then fell in a berserk state, and pitch-black Spiritual Qi continuously gushed out of his body.


    His hands grabbed Zhou Feng¡¯s shoulders, and he bit down on his neck. At the same time, he kept shaking his head in an attempt to tear off the flesh on Zhou Feng¡¯s neck.


    The most terrifying thing was that Zhou Feng felt a lump of flesh and blood tightly held his right hand.


    Even though he had instinctively reacted due to his Battle Instinct¡¯s warning, Zhou Feng¡¯s body did not have the time to react at all.


    It was fortunate that there was no one around to witness this bloody and terrifying scene. Otherwise, many people would have been scared silly.


    This was actually why many inner Tri-Gu disciples did not want to provoke the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples.


    The Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples were all madmen, and their physical bodies were terrifying. They would rush up and fight with you in close combat at any moment.


    The most terrifying aspect was that these starving ghosts reacted swiftly in battle, like wild beasts.


    Ordinary dao arts and techniques could not hit their target, and in the end, you still had to fight with them in close combat.


    And once they engaged in close combat, they would not rest until one of them died. It was extremely disgusting.


    Now, Zhou Feng was experiencing the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples¡¯ disgusting face.


    This was a physical contest. All other techniques were useless!


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng used all his strength and pulled out his right arm, taking a portion of Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s intestines in the process.


    The first move just now still gave him a huge advantage.


    Without Zhou Feng to support his body, half of Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s body fell to the ground.


    Surprisingly, the earlier attack had also shattered Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s spine!


    It was also because he had suffered such a heavy injury that Senior Brother Zhou let go.


    Facing the fallen Senior Brother Zhou, Zhou Feng gave another vicious kick, sending a head flying.


    There was only a headless corpse left on the spot..

 Chapter 36 - Fast Progress!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng held his neck and rested for a while before he recovered.


    This battle was a little dangerous.


    According to his original plan, he would take Senior Brother Zhou down in one fell swoop by relying on his two passive skills, Aura Blade and Bone Coating.


    However, in reality, Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s resistance was too intense. His body was simply abnormal. Even when his intestines had been punched out, he actually used his muscles to lock his arm.


    At the same time, the strength he had erupted with at the end was too great.


    If not for the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body helping him one last time, he would have been entangled for a long time.


    Fortunately, his first move had still been very effective, and Old Skin¡¯s passive defense was also very strong because of his constant injuries.


    There was only a bite mark left on his neck, but not a piece of flesh was torn off. If a piece of flesh was directly torn off his neck, he would be in a bit of danger.


    ¡°I still lack offensive means!¡±


    Zhou Feng also summarized his current shortcomings.


    His first problem was that he did not have suitable offensive means.


    Every attack was only imbued with Spiritual Qi, and it was completely dependent on the strength of his physical body and Spiritual Qi. He had to find a martial technique to learn, or rather, find an offensive battle art.


    Otherwise, the lack of offensive power would be even more obvious later on.


    Secondly, he could not rely on Battle Instinct too much. Although it was very useful, there were many times when one relied on their instinct to fight.


    Not only was one¡¯s reaction speed fast enough, but their decision-making ability should also be abnormally precise.


    However, if one¡¯s body did not have time to react, it would be useless no matter how fast their brain reacted.


    Just like just earlier, there was not much time to react in close combat.


    Therefore, the Gold Battle Instinct had almost no effect earlier.


    ¡°My passive skills are still not enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed and then began to collect Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s items.


    The most important one was naturally the Demon-Devouring Gu in Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s body.


    When the Demon-Devouring Gu was dug out of Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s body, Zhou Feng¡¯s Gu also awakened from its hibernating state.


    Holding back the nausea, Zhou Feng directly swallowed this black Demon-Devouring Gu.


    In an instant, a large amount of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi directly exploded in his body.


    Having experienced it once, Zhou Feng was very calm this time.


    He began to slowly circulate the Demon-Devouring Technique, converting this large amount of Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi into his own.


    At the same time, he looked at the skill panel.


    The progress bar on the skill panel was also full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    With an order, the skill panel began to draw new passive skills.


    Poison Immunity (Level 1): You are immune to most poisons. Once you are poisoned, your body will reject the poison.


    This new passive skill was very practical.


    Being immune to most poisons? Didn¡¯t this mean that he could use more diverse tactics?


    After seeing this passive skill, he didn¡¯t know why but the first reaction in his mind was to poison the enemy and himself together.


    He had the passive Poison Immunity, but the enemy didn¡¯t. This way, he could instantly gain an advantage.


    Just as he was thinking about this, his stomach began to churn.


    Zhou Feng felt a wave of nausea and vomited a bunch of things.


    Among his vomit, there were actually a few strange bugs that were moving about.


    This scene instantly stunned him.


    However, that was not the end. His body seemed to have a stressful reaction. He began to vomit crazily, and some black fluid flowed out of his pores.


    After a long while, this reaction stopped.


    ¡°Was I poisoned? And it¡¯s so many kinds of poison!?¡±


    At this time, even if Zhou Feng was a fool, he still came to an understanding. He had definitely been poisoned. His body had reacted that way to expel the poison.


    He didn¡¯t expect Poison Immunity, which he had just obtained, to start to take effect.


    And the most terrifying thing was that he had been poisoned with so many different kinds of poison.


    There had been no signs at all, nor had he ever felt any discomfort. He had not realized that something was wrong when he was cultivating.


    This was too terrifying!


    ¡°Did Wang Ming poison me!?¡±


    There was no need to guess who had poisoned him. Zhou Feng immediately determined that Wang Ming had covertly poisoned him because only he had such an opportunity to do so.


    Usually, Wang Ming would send all kinds of cultivation resources, and some of them were definitely mixed with poison.


    Zhou Feng had really been a little careless. He also understood Wang Ming¡¯s thoughts at that time. It was nothing more than raising him as a pig.


    In Wang Ming¡¯s mind, Zhou Feng would not reject any of those cultivation resources. Thus, he would accomplish his goal of raising him like a pig.


    ¡°I want to see who will be the hunter in the end!¡±


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s thinking had been too simplistic.


    Wang Ming seemed to show all his thoughts on his face, but he had many small schemes in reality.


    Perhaps, his every move had been monitored long ago.


    ¡°Very good! I want to see who will be the hunter in the end!¡±


    After Zhou Feng learned this lesson, the last bit of hesitation in his heart disappeared.


    No one from Bitter Bamboo Peak should continue to exist in this world. His hunting plan had to continue.


    ¡°Already at 9th Level of Qi Gathering? It seems a bit fast!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng had already devoured Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu had already been swallowed by him, and he checked his own realm.


    He discovered that his cultivation had reached the 9th Level of Qi Gathering, and he could already begin to induct Qi!


    This speed was simply astonishing, from the 6th Level to the 9th Level of Qi Gathering.


    It seemed to be less than a few months!


    The Demon-Devouring Technique was worthy of being called the Demon-Devouring Technique; its cultivation speed was indeed fast!


    Of course, such a fast cultivation speed naturally had many drawbacks.


    For example, his spiritual power was very chaotic and scattered.


    Putting it simply: the quantity increased, but the quality was not good.


    At the same time, because he had swallowed two Demon-Devouring Gu, the circulation of his spiritual power was not smooth, and occasionally it felt a little sluggish.


    If a normal cultivator faced such a situation, they would first slow down and not be in a hurry to continue breaking through.


    Instead, they would slowly polish their spiritual power, let their spiritual power circulate as they wished, and slowly break through after laying a good foundation.


    However, Zhou Feng did not have such thoughts because he was currently cultivating a demonic technique.


    Wasn¡¯t it normal for a demonic technique to have flaws?


    The greatest advantage of a demonic technique was that it allowed one to advance quickly, so this advantage naturally had to be maintained.


    What Zhou Feng believed in was a large suppression of a small one. In other words, he liked to suppress one¡¯s cultivation level from a high one to a low one.


    What Reverse Immortal Crusade? He did not like this sort of thing.


    Anyway, his realm was there. No matter how trashy it was, there was still a lower limit.


    It was enough to deal with ordinary people.


    It wasn¡¯t realistic for him to slowly polish his realm.


    Now, there were all kinds of thoughts in his head.


    Suppress his realm and slowly break through?


    It was impossible!

 Chapter 37 - Being Watched

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After dealing with Senior Brother Zhou¡¯s corpse, Zhou Feng did not immediately return to Bitter Bamboo Peak. Instead, he chose to find a place to recuperate.


    He planned to recuperate before returning. Otherwise, it would be a little dangerous to return directly like this.


    He possessed the passive Self-Healing Constitution, and his injuries were not too serious, so he would completely recover in a while.


    While Zhou Feng was recuperating, he began to think about what he should do next.


    His next plan was naturally to continue killing those Senior Brothers and Sisters of his.


    He could quickly increase his cultivation realm by devouring their Demon-Devouring Gu and getting rid of the threat named Wang Ming.


    Regarding Wang Ming¡¯s realm, he was not very clear.


    However, it was very likely that he was at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, ready to cast his Spiritual Altar at any time.


    According to this standard, Zhou Feng had to at least reach the Qi Condensation realm before he could contend with Wang Ming. It was even to the extent that he had to reach the 9th Level of Qi Condensation. After all, his method of breaking through was a little tricky.


    Compared to the same realm, his battle prowess should be a little weaker.


    Now that he was at the 9th Level of Qi Gathering realm, how could he break through to the Qi Induction realm?


    Although there were no bottlenecks below the Spiritual Altar realm, there were differences in the efficiency of different breakthrough methods.


    Unfortunately, the Bitter Bamboo Peak was very chaotic.


    There was neither an instructor nor an Elder to teach those things.


    Only the Grand Elder and a few Senior Brothers and Sisters were actually casually addressed by them daily.


    Unlike Bitter Bamboo Peak, the other peaks were much more normal. Not only did they have specialized teaching Elders, but they also had various missions and benefits. The communication between the disciples was also very smooth.


    The difference between the Qi Gathering and the Qi Induction realms was actually in that one word.


    The Qi Gathering realm was to draw a small amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into the body, temper the body, and convert spiritual energy.


    The Qi Induction realm was to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi with all its might, and the body could also withstand the tempering of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    At the same time, their bodies, spiritual energy, and so on would enter a state of metamorphosis.


    Just from the description alone, there was not much difference between the two.


    To be honest, if it really did not work out, Zhou Feng planned to break through by force, and he would not rely on any blessed land or spiritual pills.


    ¡°There is definitely an offensive battle art on Bitter Bamboo Peak, but I did not know about it before!¡±


    What Zhou Feng was thinking about now was the issue of battle arts.


    Previously, it was very likely that Wang Ming had deceived him. No matter how powerful the Demon-Devouring Technique was, the First Elder of Bitter Bamboo Peak wouldn¡¯t be able to become the Grand Elder just by relying on the Demon-Devouring Technique alone.


    There were definitely a few arts. Even if he walked the path of the physical body, he would still have a few martial techniques!


    It was likely that Wang Ming had deceived him from the very beginning. That Demon-Devouring Technique was definitely not the complete version.


    Zhou Feng immediately planned to look for any arts or martial techniques that could be learned on Bitter Bamboo Peak after he returned.


    Currently, he only had the Ghost Shadow Steps he had obtained from the Scripture Pavillion.


    Moreover, because he did not usually practice the Ghost Shadow Steps, he used them when he was on his way. It was truly a little shabby.


    After this simple thought, he felt much clearer about what he should do next.


    Not long after, relying on his passive Self-Healing Constitution, his injuries were basically healed.


    At the same time, Old Skin¡¯s passive state seemed to have been triggered, and he felt that his skin had become more tenacious.


    If he was now in a game world, the words ¡®+1 Defense¡¯ would probably appear above his head.


    ¡­


    After returning to Bitter Bamboo Peak, Zhou Feng also received protection fees from Qian Shang.


    This was also the first time he received a protection fee.


    ¡°Eh? So many things?¡±


    Zhou Feng had never received a protection fee before, so he didn¡¯t know exactly what he would gain.


    Nonetheless, he was quite familiar with the value of some things, such as Spirit Stones, which were absolutely hard currency in the inner sect.


    One Spirit Stone was enough for a Qi Gathering cultivator to cultivate for three days.


    Different from attracting the wandering Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, the spirit energy in Spirit Stones was very gentle after many years of precipitation.


    It was also very convenient to absorb, unlike the violent Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    Therefore, when using Spirit Stones to cultivate, one¡¯s cultivation speed would be several times faster than without Spirit Stones.


    It was precisely because of this effect that Spirit Stones were hard currency.


    Take an ordinary inner disciple as an example. The monthly rate was about 3 Spirit Stones, which was enough for them to cultivate for nine days.


    And the money merchant had actually sent 10 Spirit Stones at this time!


    It must be known that this was only a part of the protection fee, and it would be available every month after that.


    How could such a small shop earn so many Spirit Stones!?


    ¡°Are these Primeval Blood Pills? And some Blood Pills?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that the owner of this shop had spent a lot of money. These many things should be equivalent to more than half of the profit of a shop!


    After eliminating the daily consumption, there was not much left.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng felt that he had to pay attention to Shopkeeper Qian¡¯s shop.


    He had spent a lot of money, and it was not Zhou Feng¡¯s style to receive money and do nothing.


    Now that he had the cultivation resources, Zhou Feng naturally continued to cultivate.


    Although he could use the Demon-Devouring Gu to increase his cultivation level, he could not fall behind in his daily cultivation.


    If he only relied on the Demon-Devouring Gu to increase his cultivation level and did not cultivate on a daily basis, then he would really fall into the Demonic Path.


    At present, he had only half a foot in the Demonic Path. He was not really falling into the Demonic Path.


    At the marketplace¡­


    Qian Shang had also changed the signboard outside.


    Thus, Zhao Wu and Qian Shang¡¯s former backer, Jia Ju, also learned that Qian Shang had changed his backer.


    This time, Zhao Wu and Jia Ju were unhappy.


    Zhao Wu was unhappy because someone had stolen his prey. It was not easy for him to find an opportunity to take a shop under his banner.


    Now he had been robbed? And why did that name sound familiar?


    ¡°This person¡­ is actually him!?¡±


    When he learned that the one who had destroyed his plans was Zhou Feng, Zhao Wu was instantly stunned.


    He had never expected that a kid who had crawled out of a Gu Refinement Cave could grow to such a level.


    He even stole a shop he had set his eyes?


    Had those starving ghosts of Bitter Bamboo Peak not made a move?


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death! The martial arts competition will be held in a few days! I want to see just what this Zhou Feng is capable of!¡±


    Zhao Wu hated the fellow who had consecutively destroyed his plans to the bone. Zhou Feng had stolen Zhao Jun¡¯s storage bag and even killed Xiong Dan, depriving Zhao Wu of one of his subordinates.


    In addition to this, he stood in his way for the third time.


    Not even a person with a good temper could stomach this.


    Therefore, Zhao Wu planned to teach Zhou Feng a good lesson at the martial arts competition a few days later.


    Moreover, a few days later, he, Zhao Wu, would officially become famous.


    Other than Zhao Wu, Jia Ju was also furious at this time. Although he was injured, he wasn¡¯t easy to bully.


    A Qi Gathering brat actually dared to snatch his protection fee?


    He would wait until the martial arts competition to see just how capable Zhou Feng was.


    Zhou Feng was now the target of two people!

 Chapter 38 - The Three Demon-Devouring Arts

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After some probing, Zhou Feng finally found out that what he yearned for was on the peak of Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    A stone obelisk recorded all the ultimate arts that one could learn on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    However, when Zhou Feng had first gone up the mountain, he was told not to go up under normal circumstances.


    Therefore, he had never visited the peak.


    It was not until he heard this news from a Senior Brother. Of course, said Senior Brother had already disappeared.


    After devouring another Demon-Devouring Gu, the spiritual power in Zhou Feng¡¯s body became even mottled.


    However, the amount of spiritual power and the density of Blood Qi had increased once again.


    The two successful hunts had also alerted the other people on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    After all, the people who had gone out with Zhou Feng didn¡¯t return after two consecutive hunts.


    Now, the other Senior Brothers and Sisters on Bitter Bamboo Peak no longer regarded him as a newcomer.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hunting plan hit a bottleneck in an instant.


    Therefore, taking advantage of this bottleneck, he came to the top of the mountain.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Armor?¡±


    On the stone obelisk, the first thing that was engraved was a defensive art.


    This defensive art was called Demon-Devouring Armor. Once it was initiated, it could form a set of armor on the surface of the body.


    This armor was completely made up of spiritual power, and its defensive power against other arts was extremely high.


    Combined with the tough physical body that was tempered by practicing the Demon-Devouring Technique, one¡¯s physical fighting ability was simply stretched to the limit.


    Moreover, this Demon-Devouring Armor was divided into nine layers. With each layer that was upgraded, the armor would become more realistic.


    In the end, it didn¡¯t even need to be activated. Once the cultivator encountered damage, it would automatically appear.


    It could even isolate toxins and high temperatures. This was definitely a top-notch defensive art.


    Unfortunately, it only recorded the cultivation method for the first six levels. The last three levels were not recorded.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng was delighted with this. He immediately memorized the cultivation method for the first six levels.


    ¡®Demon-Devouring Armor, Old Skin, and Bone Coating¡­ My defense system is practically at full capacity!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could not help but imagine his current defense.


    Putting aside everything else, his defense and life-saving ability were definitely at full capacity.


    With a few passive skills and the Demon-Devouring Armor, he was absolutely invincible.


    With that, the battle method of exchanging injuries for injuries could continue.


    He was already used to this type of fighting style, relying on his strong defense. Exchanging lives with the opponent, this kind of tactic was extremely easy to catch the opponent off guard.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Physique?¡±


    After memorizing the Demon-Devouring Armor, he continued to read.


    He realized that this was about defense and life preservation.


    This was a method to change one¡¯s physique, using all sorts of special medicine and spirit items to assist.


    It could allow one¡¯s mortal body to transform into the Demon-Devouring Physique.


    He had some knowledge about the Demon-Devouring Physique before. As the Demon-Devouring Gu inside his body continued to transform, his physical body would naturally transform into the Demon-Devouring Physique.


    However, this process was extremely slow, and the Demon-Devouring Physique technique was a method to speed up this process.


    Below was a large number of the required medicine and spirit items.


    Zhou Feng had never heard of most of these things.


    The Demon-Devouring Physique was also divided into nine levels. The stone obelisk only recorded the first three levels of the metamorphosis technique.


    The later ones were not recorded.


    Although he could not use it now, he still memorized the Demon-Devouring Physique.


    Anyway, there was no loss in memorizing it. What if he used it in the future?


    As he continued reading, the following passages finally recorded the main offensive battle arts.


    Demon-Devouring Battle Art!


    This was a method of using spiritual power, and it was specially created for Demon-Devouring Qi.


    Under the influence of the Demon-Devouring Gu, the spiritual power in Zhou Feng¡¯s body could be said to be gradually transforming into Demon-Devouring Qi.


    The spiritual power of this special envoy had many characteristics. Therefore, if one wanted to unleash this type of spiritual power¡¯s greatest power, they had to create a special method to use it.


    The ultimate skills and attack methods of all the sects in the world were all created according to said sects¡¯ cultivation methods.


    Therefore, the cultivation method was the fundamental method for every cultivator and was extremely difficult to change.


    ¡°Only one paragraph?¡±


    Unlike the previous Demon-Devouring Armor and Demon-Devouring Physique, the Demon-Devouring Battle Art only had one paragraph.


    It didn¡¯t have much of a realm, and its power depended on the individual¡¯s comprehension.


    Furthermore, the Demon-Devouring Battle Art didn¡¯t have a fixed technique. One could use any technique to assimilate the Demon-Devouring Battle Art.


    The only thing that remained unchanged was the core of the art, which was the word Demon-Devouring.


    How one understood the word depended entirely on the individual. Some people believed that the word Demon-Devouring was related to demons.


    Thus, countless demon shadows were created, and a group of demons devoured immortals. With just a thought, the group of demons danced wildly, suppressing the Nine Heavens.


    Others believed that the most important aspect was to devour, so they created a bloody mouth that could swallow everything.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any thoughts in his mind.


    Given his comprehension ability, he could only comprehend an extremely shallow way to use it.


    In terms of comprehension ability, he might be an ordinary person, but he wasn¡¯t that disappointed as he wasn¡¯t a cultivation genius to begin with.


    The three Demon-Devouring arts were the three most important arts on the stone obelisk and Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s absolute arts.


    But other than the three Demon-Devouring arts, there were other things carved on the stone obelisk.


    For example, the method of raising Gu!


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had seen such a detailed method of raising Gu.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was naturally best at raising Gu.


    The stone obelisk recorded the refinement methods of several Gu.


    For example, the Blood Gu needed 10 Bloodthirsty Gu as materials to be sealed in a blood pool.


    Every day, it would be fed with various hearts, and at the same time, it would be refined with one¡¯s own blood and Spiritual Qi.


    The refinement process would last for ten days, and one could not leave the blood pool during the entire process.


    The biggest use of this Blood Gu was to lodge in the host¡¯s heart, allowing it to purify the Blood Qi in the host¡¯s body continuously.


    ¡°So this is the method to deal with it! But it actually requires a Spiritual Altar cultivator to refine it? And the refining failure rate is extremely high!?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this, he instantly understood that this Gu could neutralize the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s drawbacks.


    The Demon-Devouring Technique advanced extremely quickly, but it would also cause many drawbacks, such as chaotic spiritual power, impure Blood Qi, and so on. These flaws greatly affected one¡¯s battle prowess.


    However, the various Gu refinement methods recorded on this stone obelisk could effectively reduce these flaws.


    There were also Ice Heart Gu, Pure Spirit Gu, and so on, all Gu that targeted the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s flaws.


    The only pity was that refining these Gu was extremely difficult, and they could only be refined by those at least at the Spiritual Altar realm.


    Even so, it was still a great harvest for Zhou Feng.


    This stone obelisk recorded too many useful things. No wonder Wang Ming had not told him about the stone obelisk¡¯s existence.


    The other seniors had also not told him because this was the most precious thing in Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng was thrilled that only the last person knew about the stone obelisk¡¯s existence among the few people he had hunted.


    Moreover, the last one had only learned about it not too long ago.


    Otherwise, when facing his seniors who had cultivated the three Demon-Devouring arts, he might not be able to win. Instead, he would be the one ending up dead.


    Even though Zhou Feng had all sorts of passive skills, without cultivating the three Demon-Devouring arts, his battle prowess was quite lacking..

 Chapter 39 - Passive: Longevity

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng finally enjoyed the benefits of joining the sect this time.


    If he was just an itinerant cultivator, it would be impossible for him to come into contact with the secret sect techniques, such as the three Demon-Devouring arts.


    Let alone learn them.


    And the biggest benefit of joining a sect was that Zhou Feng could come into contact with some cultivation techniques.


    But correspondingly, a Gu had been planted in his body,


    He suspected that the Tri-Gu Sect had a method to control the Gu and subsequently all Tri-Gu disciples.


    Even those so-called Elders were under the Sect Leader¡¯s control.


    Otherwise, there were simply too many disciples who wanted to defect.


    With such an intensely competitive environment in the inner sect, there would definitely be some who would cower and want to flee the sect.


    However, there were no rumors about this.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng had reasons to suspect that the Tri-Gu higher-ups possessed some secret technique. They could control their Gu or the Gu planted in their bodies may have some kind of flaw.


    Zhou Feng had thought about this before, but his strength had been weak, so it was useless to think about it, and he temporarily put it aside.


    Now that his strength was steadily increasing, he also had to consider this aspect. After all, his endgame was to escape from the Tri-Gu sect.


    ¡°My cultivation is still a little low! I¡¯m afraid that I need to reach the Spiritual Altar realm to be able to understand this aspect of information!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that his cultivation was still a little low.


    He had yet to be able to come into contact with this aspect of information.


    Moreover, counting the days, the martial arts competition would be held in a few days.


    This could be considered his first time participating in the martial arts competition after joining the inner sect.


    He had to quickly prepare for this!


    At the very least, he had to cultivate the Demon-Devouring Armor. He did not want to be beaten to death during this competition.


    Coincidentally, the resources Qian Shang had sent were enough for him to cultivate for a period.


    Zhou Feng planned to enter secluded cultivation, cultivating until the martial arts competition before coming out.


    ¡°Oh right! I should be able to draw passive skills now!¡±


    He recalled that the progress bar on the skill panel had almost been full after the last hunt.


    If he counted the time, he could draw passive skills now.


    Sure enough, when he opened the skill panel, the progress bar was full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    [Drawing¡­]


    A few seconds later, a brand new passive skill appeared in front of him.


    Longevity: Your lifespan is longer than that of an ordinary person. You have an additional 20 years of lifespan.


    Zhou Feng did not expect that he would be able to randomly obtain such a passive skill!


    Wasn¡¯t this an additional 20 years of lifespan out of thin air?


    Moreover, there were no side effects and no price to pay.


    Life was the most precious thing.


    Perhaps when one was young, many people didn¡¯t care much about their lifespan. But when one was old, they would start to sigh. If only they could live a few more years!


    Now, Zhou Feng had directly gained an extra 20 years of lifespan.


    This feeling was too strange!


    Now, a thought began to appear in his mind.


    That was if he could randomly pick a passive skill that could grant him immortality, then he would be able to live forever.


    However, it was very obvious that this was almost impossible. Such a heaven-defying passive skill would probably never appear in his lifetime.


    ¡°An additional 20 years of lifespan out of thin air¡­ Is this what it feels like?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt a warm current wash over his entire body, and then his body seemed to become lighter.


    After carefully sensing it, he did not feel any difference in his body from before. Or rather, he did not feel any obvious difference.


    Unfortunately, he did not know how long he could live.


    ¡°I should hurry back and cultivate the Demon-Devouring Armor!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng didn¡¯t feel any difference, the joy in his heart slowly faded, and he prepared to go back and cultivate the Demon-Devouring Armor.


    With that, he directly walked down the mountain peak.


    ¡­


    The mountainside market was still very lively.


    As the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s treasure-gathering plate, the sect maintained the order of the market quite well.


    The shop where Qian Shang and his daughter were wasn¡¯t disturbed during this period.


    It was probably because the passersby saw the words ¡®Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯ hanging outside.


    Although the name Zhou Feng was almost unknown, he was still from Bitter Bamboo Peak. Ordinary inner disciples did not want to provoke it.


    Another point was that the martial arts competition was not far away.


    At that time, all the inner disciples would have a big battle.


    Under such circumstances, all the inner disciples would have a chance to prove themselves.


    And according to the results of the martial arts competition, some of the marketplace¡¯s benefits would also be redistributed.


    Once Zhou Feng¡¯s performance in the martial arts competition was not good, then people would come looking for trouble with Qian Shang and his daughter.


    Qian Shang would have to pay another protection fee to find a new backer.


    It was also because of the calm before the storm that Qian Shang and his daughter¡¯s shop was almost undisturbed.


    ¡°How is it, daughter? Does this Young Master Zhou have any potential?¡±


    During this period, Qian Shang had collected a lot of information on Zhou Feng. After all, he had invested heavily in him.


    And all of this was only because of his daughter¡¯s intuition. If his daughter¡¯s intuition was wrong¡­ then this investment would be wasted.


    Therefore, Qian Shang had collected a lot of information about Zhou Feng and let Qian Qianqian analyze it.


    Of course, because Zhou Feng had been brought to Bitter Bamboo Peak as soon as he entered the inner sect, and collecting information about Bitter Bamboo Peak was not so easy, it was uncertain whether the information was accurate or not.


    ¡°From the information you collected, Young Master Zhou seems to be really powerful!¡±


    Qian Qianqian, who was blind, gently stroked the Treasure Mouse in her palm and calmly recounted Zhou Feng¡¯s experiences.


    ¡°Climbing out of a Gu Refinement Cave is already a one-in-a-million chance!


    ¡°Furthermore, after entering the inner sect, he was assigned to Bitter Bamboo Peak and could still live for so long in that environment!


    ¡°He has even antagonized Young Master Zhao a few times, but nothing happened!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After hearing this, Qian Shang lost interest. What he cared about was whether his investment was worth it or not.


    If the investment succeeded, then they could finally gain a firm foothold in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    As for returning to the Eastern Land for revenge, Qian Shang no longer dared to think about it.


    At present, his only thought was to peacefully spend the rest of his life with his daughter.


    ¡°Right! Daughter, should we continue expanding our business? The poisonous Gu we raise seem to be very popular!¡±


    As they chatted, Qian Shang brought up the topic of business.


    They had a special method, so the poisonous Gu they raised were very popular.


    The Penta-Poison Gu cultivators were especially fond of these high-quality poisonous Gu.


    Qian Shang¡¯s current idea was to expand his business and build a bigger pond for raising Gu.


    Even if he were to do that, however, there were still many problems to be solved.


    Thus, Qian Shang first asked his daughter for her opinion.


    ¡°Let¡¯s wait for the outcome of the martial arts competition! Maybe we¡¯ll have to escape from here. I keep feeling that this place is very dangerous!¡±


    Qian Qianqian hesitated for a moment, and her tone was slightly worried.


    She kept feeling that the Tri-Gu Sect was very strange, but she didn¡¯t know where to start.


    This wasn¡¯t a feeling she got from a single person. Instead, she felt that the entire Tri-Gu Sect was very strange.


    It was as if there was some sort of conspiracy, but this feeling came and went, and Qian Qianqian couldn¡¯t explain it..

 Chapter 40 - Another Passive Skill!?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Ever since Zhou Feng had obtained the three Demon-Devouring arts, he had never left Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    The day of the martial arts competition was approaching, so he had to take advantage of this period.


    At the very least, he had to master the Demon-Devouring Armor. Otherwise, it would be too difficult for him to obtain good results in the martial arts competition.


    One had to know that the martial arts competition was also a benefit distribution meet. Not only were there rewards in the form of sect merit points, but there were also Spirit Stones and spirit items.


    Needless to say, sect merit points were the most important as one could exchange them for many things. One could even enter the Scripture Pavilion to learn various secret techniques.


    Zhou Feng had always been thinking about poison techniques, and there were many of them in the Scripture Pavilion.


    Then there were spiritual artifacts!


    Compared to other inner disciples, Zhou Feng could be said to have nothing.


    With a good spiritual artifact, he could seize a lot of opportunities during battle.


    As far as he knew, ordinary inner disciples naturally didn¡¯t possess spiritual artifacts.


    However, the slightly famous inner disciples basically all had spiritual artifacts to protect them.


    This spiritual artifact was equivalent to equipment, so there was a big gap between having and not having equipment.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s idea was to take advantage of this martial arts competition to earn more sect merit points or get a spiritual artifact.


    At present, Zhou Feng held a Spirit Stone in each hand and continuously circulated the Demon-Devouring Technique to absorb the pure Spiritual Qi within the Spirit Stones.


    The huge amount of Spiritual Qi was continuously converted into spiritual power.


    At that moment, the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body was also actively absorbing Blood Qii and Spiritual Qi.


    In order to successfully cultivate the Demon-Devouring Armor, the most important factor was to feed the Demon-Devouring Gu until it was full.


    Only when the Demon-Devouring Gu was full would it assist you in cultivating the Demon-Devouring Armor.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu had basically never been hungry.


    Therefore, when it assisted him in cultivation, it was very cooperative.


    Under the dual guidance of the Demon-Devouring Gu and Zhou Feng, the Demon-Devouring Qi gradually formed a special circuit.


    Soon, a prototype of an armor appeared on his body.


    Although that armor looked very rough, he had successfully mastered the Demon-Devouring Armor from that moment onward.


    As long as this prototype appeared, he would continue to fill it with spiritual power.


    And as his cultivation level increased, the Demon-Devouring Armor would also gradually increase.


    ¡°I finally succeeded!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng slowly opened his eyes and threw the empty shell of the Spirit Stones in his hand to the side.


    He had been trying to achieve that for a very long time.


    After almost exhausting all the Spirit Stones, he finally managed to get the basics of the Demon-Devouring Armor.


    This Demon-Devouring Armor was really very laborious to construct.


    At the same time, he further confirmed the fact that he was not a cultivation genius.


    At least, in terms of cultivating arts, his talent was very ordinary.


    ¡°It would be great if I could draw a passive skill that increases my talent in cultivation!¡±


    He started fantasizing. It would be great if he could draw a passive skill that increased his talent in cultivation.


    In this way, he wouldn¡¯t have to work so hard to cultivate the Demon-Devouring Armor.


    ¡°Eh? I¡¯ve broken through?¡±


    After slowly putting away the Demon-Devouring Armor, he suddenly realized that he had actually broken through!


    Perhaps he had been too engrossed in cultivating the Demon-Devouring Armor during this period, so much so that he had not even noticed that he had made a breakthrough.


    From the 9tth Level of Qi Gathering to the 1st Level of Qi Induction, this process had not made the slightest ripple.


    Everything had been so natural.


    However, Zhou Feng felt his own spiritual power, and it was still mottled and messy.


    This feeling was as if it was mixed with many kinds of spiritual power.


    Then, he felt his body and found that his body could withstand more Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    Surprisingly, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was not enough for him to absorb.


    When he was in the Qi Gathering realm, he felt that the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was abundant. He could absorb it however he wanted.


    But now, it was different. The surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was absorbed in an instant.


    If he wanted to continue absorbing Spiritual Qi, he could only slowly replenish it through the circulation of Spiritual Qi.


    Zhou Feng instantly realized why Spirit Stones were so precious.


    This was only an increase of one realm, and even the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was not enough for him to absorb.


    In this way, the higher the realm, the more Spiritual Qi he needed.


    If he cultivated every day, besides being in a blessed land with abundant Spiritual Qi, he would have to rely on Spirit Stones.


    Otherwise, how long would it take to absorb the wandering Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi?


    At that moment, Zhou Feng habitually glanced at the skill panel.


    ¡°Damn! I can draw passive skills again!?¡±


    He was surprised to find that he could draw passive skills again.


    Was it probably because he had absorbed a large amount of Spiritual Qi in the past few days?


    Was that why the progress bar on the skill panel kept increasing?


    Although he didn¡¯t know if it was because of this reason, who cared!


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Every time he drew a passive skill, it was probably the happiest time for Zhou Feng because this meant that he would become stronger.


    [Drawing¡­]


    Underwater Breathing: You can breathe through your skin and stay underwater for a long time. The longest time is 12 hours.


    Underwater Breathing?


    Looking at the description, this was a good passive support-type skill.


    Although it didn¡¯t seem to be of much use at the moment, if he was fighting in the water¡­ he would have a huge advantage.


    Or when he was running, he could just jump into the river and escape, right?


    If he could stay underwater for 12 hours, the average person wouldn¡¯t be able to catch up with him if he jumped into the river and dived!


    Regarding the passive Underwater Breathing, his evaluation was moderate.


    As he had said, it was better to have something than nothing!


    ¡°Let¡¯s go out and get some air!¡±


    After cultivating in seclusion for so long, Zhou Feng also felt a little bored.


    After counting the days, tomorrow should be the martial arts competition. It would be good to go out and relax now.


    Also, he should prepare some things, just in case.


    Now that he had successfully cultivated the Demon-Devouring Armor, he had also broken through to the Qi Induction realm, so he planned to go out and get some fresh air.


    However, when he opened the door, he felt a few pairs of eyes staring at him.


    Although he did not see anyone, his Battle Instinct had been triggered!


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Is it because I have broken through to the Qi Induction realm?¡±


    Obviously, Zhou Feng, who had broken through to the Qi Induction realm, was no longer considered a seedling in the eyes of the others on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    He could already be considered a hunting target. It was precisely because of this that many Senior Brothers and Sisters were already spying on him.


    Actually, what Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that from the moment he had entered seclusion, someone had already set their eyes on him and planned to make a move.


    This was because Wang Ming was about to cast his Spiritual Altar and was preparing to break through to the Spiritual Altar rank.


    And breaking through to the Spiritual Altar rank required a lot of time.


    Wang Ming probably wouldn¡¯t even appear in a short period, nor would he participate in the martial arts competition this time.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had been Wang Ming¡¯s prey, and he had even marked him.


    The so-called mark was actually poisoning. Wang Ming had long ago poisoned Zhou Feng.


    Therefore, even if people were spying on Zhou Feng, there weren¡¯t many.


    However, it was different now. Wang Ming had entered closed-door cultivation to break through to the Spiritual Altar realm, and at this critical moment, Zhou Feng had also broken through to the Qi Induction realm.


    If you were talking about the Qi Gathering realm, many people could still endure it.


    But when it came to a newbie who had just broken through to the Qi Induction realm, the temptation was too great.


    The Qi Induction realm meant that the Demon-Devouring Gu had undergone a transformation.


    In other words, it was a great tonic for their Demon-Devouring Gu!

 Chapter 41 - Summary

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After sensing that plenty of people were staring at him, Zhou Feng chose to return to his room.


    The more he knew, the more he understood how dangerous the Bitter Bamboo Peak was.


    The first was the three Demon-Devouring Arts. There were definitely many Senior Brothers and Sisters on the Bitter Bamboo Peak who had successfully cultivated it.


    At the same time, based on the Demon-Devouring Arts¡¯ strange progress speed, it was very likely that most of the Bitter Bamboo Peak disciples were at the Qi Condensation realm.


    The two people he had hunted before might be the weakest ones on Bitter Bamboo Peak. That was why he had been able to succeed so easily.


    Under such an assumption, it might be a good choice to stay behind closed doors and wait for the martial arts competition to come.


    However, his current realm was still a little low.


    ¡°Only in the Qi Induction realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng worked hard to circulate the Demon-Devouring Technique and absorb the barren Spiritual Qi in the surroundings.


    He was still not satisfied with his current cultivation level.


    This was because the martial arts competition would attract all the elite inner disciples, and the ones at the top were definitely in the Qi Condensation realm.


    He, who was only in the Qi Induction realm, was still far from those elite disciples.


    Under such circumstances, it was too difficult for him to get a good ranking.


    ¡°Should I take this opportunity to hunt once?¡±


    Zhou Feng considered whether he should hunt once tonight and use the Demon-Devouring Gu to make another breakthrough.


    If he could devour a Qi Condensation realm Senior Brother, it would not be impossible for his cultivation to rise to the Qi Condensation realm directly.


    But doing so was extremely risky, as his Qi Condensation Senior Brothers or Senior Sisters were experienced in hundreds of battles and cultivated all kinds of secret techniques simultaneously. Their battle prowess was on a completely different level from the small fries he had previously hunted.


    ¡°The key is to catch the opponent off guard!¡±


    Of course, if there was no chance at all, it was not that there was no chance.


    As long as he caught the opponent off guard, he would be able to injure the opponent first severely. Then, the chance would be great.


    Thus, Zhou Feng began to summarize his advantages for the first time.


    The first advantage that helped him the most was naturally the skill panel. After continuously acquiring passive skills during this period, he had quite many passive skills.


    Gluttony (Level 2), Old Skin, Self-Healing Constitution, Nature Affinity, Poison Immunity, Underwater Breathing, and Longevity¡ªthey were support growth-type skills that didn¡¯t have much of an effect on normal battles.


    Then there were the passive battle-type skills, namely Battle Instinct, Bone Coating, Aura Blade, which could directly increase his battle prowess.


    Zhou Feng carefully pondered and found that he lacked passive battle-type skills.


    Moreover, of these three passive battle-type skills, two of them had a long cooldown.


    Once Bone Coating and Aura Blade were triggered, they would take a long time to recover.


    The only passive skill that could act as a buff during the whole process was Battle Instinct.


    Although this passive skill was useful, its effect was too random. It could not increase his battle prowess to a high level.


    It seemed like he would need to find a way to increase the rate at which he could obtain passive skills.


    This was because he could obtain a passive skill every once in a while.


    Moreover, this interval wasn¡¯t too long.


    Thus, Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t paid much attention to how to increase the rate at which he could obtain passive skills.


    What was known was that continuously absorbing Spiritual Qi would increase the progress bar on the skill panel.


    However, this required numerous Spirit Stones, and he did not have many of them.


    Earning Spirit Stones might be an important goal in the future.


    The passive skill inventory was done.


    Next would be the techniques he had mastered.


    Zhou Feng was currently cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique, and the Gu in his body had also transformed into a Demon-Devouring Gu.


    However, his understanding of the Demon-Devouring Technique was still very shallow. As for the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s mention of using the Demon-Devouring Gu to increase his battle prowess, he had not mastered it at all.


    After the Demon-Devouring Technique, there were the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s three Demon-Devouring Arts. Among the three arts, he had only mastered the Demon-Devouring Armor had to the initial stage.


    He had not even reached the threshold of the other two arts¡¯ initial stage.


    ¡°It¡¯s still because I started cultivating later than others!¡±


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng was helpless.


    After all, he had not been cultivating for a long time. One needed a lot of time in order to master martial techniques and arts.


    At best, he had only started cultivating for less than half a year.


    He had been a mortal just half a year ago, yet he was now a Qi Induction cultivator. He felt that his cultivation speed was already very fast.


    ¡°Finally, it¡¯s weapons!¡±


    He didn¡¯t possess many weapons, and he was adept at using lime as a means of attack.


    After entering the inner sect, the sand from before had also turned into lime, which was still very useful when one¡¯s cultivation level was low.


    Once one reached the Qi Gathering realm and above, however, the protective spiritual energy could directly counter such a low-level attack.


    For example, if Zhou Feng used his Demon-Devouring Armor, the lime would not affect him at all.


    Since the Bitter Bamboo Peak had the Demon-Devouring Armor, it was likely that the other peaks also had corresponding defensive measures.


    Therefore, lime was no longer useful.


    Next was a few poisons.


    After becoming Qian Shang and his daughter¡¯s backer, Zhou Feng had also obtained some ordinary poisons. After all, the shops that Qian Shang operated mainly dealt with various poisonous Gu.


    It was very normal to extract poisons from poisonous Gu.


    The most useful one was the poison called the Ecstasy Incense. It had a strong hallucinogenic effect and did not differentiate between friend and foe.


    Even a Qi Gathering cultivator would be slightly dazed when taking a whiff of the Ecstasy Incense.


    However, the disadvantage was that it was extremely easy to volatilize and had to be placed close to the face. The effect would be bad if it was placed far away.


    It was precisely because of this that the Ecstasy Incense¡¯s market price was not very high.


    It had to be placed close to one¡¯s face, and one could not differentiate between friend and foe. Wasn¡¯t this a joke?


    Directly placing the Ecstacy Incense close to one¡¯s face and causing both parties to be in a trance was equivalent to not placing it at all.


    Moreover, this Ecstacy Incense was a joke to the inner Penta-Poison disciples. The Penta-Poison Gu in one¡¯s body could ignore most of the poison, and at the same time, they were experts at playing with poison.


    However, even with all these shortcomings, it was beneficial to Zhou Feng.


    The reason was that he had a passive immunity to poisons.


    The Ecstacy Incense had no effect on him at all, so he could use it directly in front of his face.


    Only the opponent would be affected, while Zhou Feng would be fine.


    As for the lack of other effects, it was not a big problem. Causing a trace to the opponent was the only effect he needed.


    Using the Ecstacy Incense in combination with Bone Coating¡¯s defense and the full-charge attack of Aura Blade could carry out Zhou Feng¡¯s life-changing strategy.


    Imagine, once a battle broke out, he would press his face against the opponent¡¯s and use the Ecstacy Incense, instantly causing the opponent to fall in a trance.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, he would deal a heavy blow to the opponent with the fully charged Aura Blade.


    In the next second, even if his opponent managed to react, Bone Coating would cancel out more than half of the damage if they wanted to counterattack.


    In this way, Zhou Feng naturally had a huge advantage.


    Since the opponent would not know that Zhou Feng could accomplish something like that, there would be mistakes in the intel one gathered on Zhou Feng. Thus, this would result in mistakes in the way the opponent dealt with Zou Feng..

 Chapter 42 - Hunters? More Like Prey!

    ¡°Eh? Isn¡¯t this¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng noticed a strange item while he was sorting out the things in his storage bag.


    A bright-colored blood cicada appeared in his eyes.


    He recalled that he had obtained this Blood Cicada Jade Pendant from Zhao Jun.


    Moreover, he had used this Blood Cicada Jade Pendant when he was channeling his Qi.


    However, the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant could only provide very little Spiritual Qi, so it didn¡¯t have much of a presence.


    Thus, Zhou Feng had gradually forgotten about the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant.


    But now, it seemed that the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant had undergone some changes.


    The color of the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant actually became brighter as he wore it.


    It was as if it was about to come to life.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    Zhou Feng was naturally very puzzled by this change.


    Could it be a treasure?


    He sensed the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant and found that other than the change in color, it was no different from before.


    The only thing he could verify was that the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant was still emitting Spiritual Qi.


    Wearing it for a long period had some benefits and no disadvantages.


    Since Zhou Feng could not figure out what was going on, he did not pay any more attention to the matter.


    After sorting out everything, Zhou Feng had a clear understanding of his strength.


    After that, he could not hold it in any longer.


    Given his current strength, the success rate would be extremely high if he were to launch a sneak attack against another Qi Induction cultivator.


    As long as no one knew about his first attack, then no one would be prepared for it.


    Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of tonight.


    He would take the initiative to start the hunt. After all, once the hunt was successful, the rewards would be too great.


    First, his cultivation could increase in a straight line, and whether it was his Blood Qi or Spiritual Qi, they would be greatly replenished.


    Then, according to his previous experience, the skill panel¡¯s progress bar would increase every time he successfully swallowed a Demon-Devouring Gu.


    At that time, he might be able to obtain another passive skill.


    Naturally, such a high reward made Zhou Feng¡¯s heart flutter.


    Since he was already leaning toward the Demonic Path, he would go all the way to the Demonic Path.


    Rushing for quick gains and benefits was not within his consideration.


    He would do it as soon as he made the appropriate plans!


    Zhou Feng started to choose his prey.


    Currently, there were not many people in the Qi Induction realm on Bitter Bamboo Peak, and he was acquainted with even less.


    After searching for some time, he found Senior Brother Sun at the foot of the mountain.


    This Senior Brother Sun was average-looking, and his clothes were very ordinary.


    On the surface, he did not look like a Bitter Bamboo Peak disciple at all. After all, the people on Bitter Bamboo Peak basically looked like they had mental problems at a glance.


    It was as if they were mentally ill.


    However, this Senior Brother Sun was unusually normal and looked harmless.


    But in reality, Zhou Feng was very sensitive to the malice in this Senior Brother Sun¡¯s eyes when he looked at him.


    He possessed Battle Instinct, which would be triggered as long as anyone looked at him with malice.


    Battle Instinct was almost always triggered on Bitter Bamboo Peak. There were too many freaks on the mountain.


    Zhou Feng relied on his Battle Instinct, so he had found this Senior Brother Sun spying on him in a hidden corner several times in a row.


    It was precisely because of this that he had chosen Senior Brother Sun as his hunting target.


    With a cultivation similar to his and constantly spying on him in the dark, this was an excellent hunting target.


    ¡®Let¡¯s wait until it gets dark! It¡¯s too flashy to take action now!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the sky outside and planned to wait until the night before taking action.


    However, what he didn¡¯t know was that this Senior Brother Sun, who he was planning to hunt, was also taking action in secret.


    ¡°Tomorrow is the martial arts competition. Tonight should be the most relaxing time for everyone! My success rate should be the highest tonight! Don¡¯t you agree, Little Flower?¡±


    Sun Gui revealed a pleased smile in a dark room.


    He was holding a rotten head in his hands. It seemed like Sun Gui was talking to the head in his hands.


    The head had already started to rot, and it constantly gave off a stench.


    Unexpectedly, one could vaguely see that the original body of the head should be a woman.


    Sun Gui¡¯s bed was covered with a big red blanket, and a red candle was placed on the table beside him. It was as if a wedding had been held.


    ¡°As long as I eat this person, I can live again! My strength will increase!¡±


    ¡°Little Flower! Do you think I have fulfilled your instructions again?¡± Sun Gui¡¯s smile became even wider.


    The scene in this dim room seemed especially strange.


    A man was holding a head and laughing wildly for no reason. This was completely different from Sun Gui¡¯s usual harmless appearance.


    ¡°Little Flower! Just you wait! Soon, there will be one more person to watch our wedding!¡±


    After saying that, Sun Gui placed the rotten head on the bed. Then, he picked up a big red bag and covered the head.


    As soon as the head was covered, the smile on Sun Gui¡¯s face disappeared without a trace.


    As usual, his face was very calm. If one ignored the surrounding environment, they would think he was just a normal person.


    Sun Gui, who had placed the head properly, immediately started to operate the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    A huge amount of Spiritual Qi was crazily circulating in his body, and the thin Spiritual Qi in the surroundings was forcefully sucked toward him.


    A large amount of Spiritual Qi was compressed into spiritual power, and it was further purified.


    If someone was here, they would definitely notice that Sun Gui was not in the Qi Induction realm but in the Qi Condensation realm!


    Moreover, he was in the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, and his spiritual power was about to be liquefied. He was half a step away from the Soul Altar realm!


    The pale moonlight rose and shone into Sun Gui¡¯s room through the window.


    A row of heads was placed under the bed.


    If one head meant that Sun Gui had eaten one person, then Sun Gui must have eaten at least a dozen people.


    What was even more terrifying was that basically no one on Bitter Bamboo Peak hid their cultivation. Low cultivation meant they were easy to bully, and all kinds of trouble would come looking for them.


    At the same time, no one knew this method of hiding their cultivation.


    Sun Gui was clearly at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, but on the surface, he gave off the feeling he was at the 3rd Level of Qi Induction.


    This was really too confusing.


    It was very likely that a few people on Bitter Bamboo Peak had treated Sun Gui as their prey, but they died instead.


    The row of skulls under the bed was evidence.


    What was even more coincidental was that Zhou Feng had chosen Sun Gui as his prey and planned to make a move tonight.


    Sun Gui had chosen Zhou Feng as his prey and planned to make a move tonight as well.


    Both parties had simultaneously become hunters and prey.


    But what Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that Sun Gui¡¯s cultivation had long reached the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    If he wasn¡¯t careful, he would very likely be crushed and instantly die.


    Catching Sun Gui off guard?


    It was more apt to say that Sun Gui had long caught him off guard and ambushed him!

 Chapter 43 - Crisis

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    It was late at night, and Bitter Bamboo Peak was exceptionally quiet.


    Not going out at night was Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s unspoken rule.


    Bitter Bamboo Peak was too dangerous at night, and one could easily disappear if they were not careful.


    Therefore, compared to the other peaks, Bitter Bamboo Peak was exceptionally quiet at night.


    Unexpectedly, a black shadow silently arrived outside Zhou Feng¡¯s courtyard.


    This black shadow was naturally Sun Gui.


    He was in his daytime clothes and wore an eerily calm expression as he looked toward the room where Zhou Feng was.


    During this process, Sun Gui was like a ghost. He did not make a single sound as he walked.


    Under the cover of the night, it was challenging to discover that such a person was moving.


    Zhou Feng was also making preparations in his room.


    ¡°Someone is here!?¡±


    His eyebrows suddenly jumped violently as Battle Instinct was triggered.


    Had someone sneaked in? This was the first thought in his mind.


    Zhou Feng did not expect that someone would actually take advantage of tomorrow¡¯s martial arts competition to make a move on him.


    After realizing that someone was going to make a move on him, Zhou Feng lay on the bed without making a single sound.


    Fortunately, he had not lit the lamp earlier, so all the preparations were carried out in the dark.


    The people outside should think that he was asleep!


    Zhou Feng lay on the bed and tried to control his breathing so that it was the same as when he was asleep.


    After a while, a strange fragrance slowly drifted to his nose.


    ¡°Smoke? You actually use this kind of thing?¡±


    Zhou Feng sniffed the smell and realized that it was somewhat familiar.


    Then, he instantly remembered. Wasn¡¯t this ordinary smoke?


    The reason he was so familiar was very simple¡ªhe had prepared this kind of smoke as well.


    This kind of smoke could be said to be a very common product. It was sold everywhere in the mountainside market.


    Compared to the Ecstasy Incense that Zhou Feng had mentioned before, the effect of this kind of smoke was much weaker.


    Under normal circumstances, this kind of smoke would not affect cultivators above the Qi Gathering realm.


    This was because as long as one circulated their spiritual power, they would be able to wake up in an instant.


    However, if the enemy was in a deep sleep, this kind of smoke would be able to display a rather strong effect.


    This would make the sleeping person sleep more soundly, and it would be harder to wake up.


    It was even possible that the person who looked down on this kind of smoke would hasten their demise because of its effect.


    After all, this kind of smoke was too low-level. Even if one did not deliberately guard against it, they would still suffer.


    Zhou Feng had Poison Immunity, so this kind of smoke had no effect at all.


    He even played along and pretended to be sleeping even more soundly on the bed in response to this.


    However, what made him feel a little strange was that Sun Gui did not enter directly from outside. It was as if he was waiting for something.


    ¡®Eh? This fragrance?¡¯


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng smelled another fragrance, very similar to the previous smoke. It even mixed with the previous smoke to form a new scent.


    ¡®I see! Is this the killing move?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng immediately realized that the hidden scent was the killing move.


    The first smoke was a diversion, while the Bewitching Incense was the real killing move.


    Normally, when people smelled the first smoke, their first reaction would be to play along.


    However, if they thought this way, they would be tricked by the hidden Bewitching Incense.


    This mixture of smoke could make a person lose consciousness in an instant.


    Even Zhou Feng, who was immune to poison, felt a little sleepy at that moment.


    This feeling was as if your brain was constantly sending out commands to make you sleepy.


    However, Poison Immunity was still at play, and Zhou Feng was not affected by the Bewitching Incense.


    The wooden door was pushed open, making a slightly ear-piercing sound, and then a person slowly walked into Zhou Feng¡¯s room.


    Sun Gui was holding a small knife that was emitting a faint glimmer in his hand, his expression one of madness.


    His 9th Level of Qi Condensation cultivation burst out with terrifying spiritual power as he ruthlessly stabbed straight into Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng opened his eyes.


    He completely ignored the small knife in Sun Gui¡¯s hand, and he jumped forward, only shifting his body at the last moment.


    The small knife that was emitting a faint glimmer stabbed into his chest.


    Zhou Feng instantly caught Sun Gui, who had launched a sneak attack, and his right hand covered Sun Gui¡¯s mouth and nose.


    On his right hand was the Ecstasy Incense that he had prepared beforehand.


    Almost at the same time, the Demon-Devouring Armor rose from both sides.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Armor was completely useless against the small knife made of unknown materials. Not only was it extremely sharp, but it could also break through the defensive layer of spiritual power. The Demon-Devouring Armor outside of his body could not block any damage at all.


    However, other than the Demon-Devouring Armor, Zhou Feng also had a layer of Bone Coating as a defense.


    This Bone Coating layer saved Zhou Feng¡¯s dog life!


    Sun Gui felt resistance, and his hand unconsciously moved.


    Then, he was distracted by the Ecstasy Incense.


    ¡°This is Senior Brother Sun!? 9th level of Qi Condensation realm!?¡±


    The moment they started fighting, Zhou Feng saw clearly who the assailant was and what realm he had reached.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng was astonished. He had originally planned to hunt Sun Gui tonight, yet his Senior Brother had beaten him to the punch and came to hunt him down instead.


    The terrifying thing was that this Senior Brother of his had reached the 9th Level of Qi Condensation!?


    Compared to him, the quality of the spiritual power of the 9th Level of Qi Condensation was simply overwhelming.


    Zhou Feng felt that he could not even break the Demon-Devouring Armor covering Sun Gui¡¯s body.


    As for Zhou Feng, not only had his armor been slashed ruthlessly, but his wound was also so big Zhou Feng¡¯s heart could fall out at any moment.


    The only good piece of news was that the Ecstasy Incense had taken effect.


    Zhou Feng relied on his Poison Immunity to negate the Ecstasy Incense¡¯s effect.


    Unfortunately, Sun Gui did not have such means, so he fell into a trance and could not even hold the knife in his hand.


    ¡°Little Flower? You¡¯re back?¡±


    In his trance, Sun Gui actually thought that Zhou Feng was someone else.


    ¡®A good opportunity!¡¯


    Zhou Feng made a prompt decision and used Ghost Shadow Steps to escape. He rushed out of the room in an instant.


    Sun Gui snapped out of his trance immediately.


    ¡°Give Little Flower back to me!¡±


    Sun Gui¡¯s eyes instantly turned red upon seeing the familiar person in front of him disappear.


    At that moment, he was like a mental patient who had gone crazy.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t dare to stay too long and ran straight down the mountain.


    Sun Gui followed closely behind.


    Such a big commotion had woken up many people on Bitter Bamboo Peak, but no one walked out of their rooms out of curiosity. Instead, it was as silent as ever.


    ¡°It¡¯s over!¡±


    Sensing Sun Gui chasing closely behind him, Zhou Feng felt an unprecedented sense of danger.


    This time, he might die here!


    Who would have thought that this Sun Gui would hide his cultivation so deeply? He was a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator, for f*ck¡¯s sake!


    He had reached such a realm, and yet he had not made a name for himself in the inner sect!?


    He could compete for more resources with this kind of strength and begin to forge a Soul Altar and break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    One had to know that hiding one¡¯s strength in the Tri-Gu Sect was equivalent to courting death.


    If you hid your strength, the cultivation resources you obtained would be reduced.


    The lack of cultivation resources also meant that your cultivation speed was similar to many others¡¯. Once your cultivation speed could not keep up with others, you would only be able to become the others¡¯ nourishment.


    It was precisely because of this that Zhou Feng would put in so much effort to raise his cultivation level.


    As such, he never expected that such a deviant was hidden in Bitter Bamboo Peak..

 Chapter 44 - Dark Past

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    In the face of Sun Gui¡¯s relentless pursuit, Zhou Feng could only dive into the forest.


    During this pursuit, the wound on his chest had temporarily stopped bleeding.


    However, this wound was too big and needed to be treated as soon as possible.


    ¡®What should I do? What should I do!?¡¯


    As Zhou Feng ran, he was thinking of countermeasures in his heart.


    What should he do to deal with this crisis?


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Without waiting for Zhou Feng to think too long, Sun Gui caught up from behind.


    Black Spiritual Qi condensed into a huge claw, attacking his back from behind.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Gu!¡±


    Zhou Feng could only rely on the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s power to resolve this crisis.


    Sun Gui had mastered the Demon-Devouring Battle Art, so the difference in strength between the two was simply too great.


    Under such circumstances, only by relying on the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s burst of power could Zhou Feng have a chance of withstanding this attack.


    The dormant Demon-Devouring Gu seemed to have heard his voice and instantly burst out with pure Spiritual Qi. Then the Demon-Devouring Armor condensed and withstood Sun Gui¡¯s claw.


    The burst of pure Spiritual Qi was accompanied by surging Blood Qi, which healed more than half of Zhou Feng¡¯s chest wound in a few seconds.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s sudden assistance gave Zhou Feng great confidence.


    ¡°Let¡¯s fight!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t escape, he could only fight to the death.


    At that moment, he chanted the Demon-Devouring Battle Art¡¯s mantra in his mind. He circulated his Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi and then threw a punch.


    The Spiritual Qi condensed into a pitch-black fist, and the surrounding trees fell.


    ¡°Little Flower! Give her back to me!¡± Sun Gui still said something that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t understand, but he didn¡¯t show any mercy.


    The Demon-Devouring Armor covered Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and he used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art again, the wind from his fist stirring up the debris.


    It was as if two ancient ferocious beasts were fighting in the mountain forest. The surrounding environment was no longer as beautiful as before.


    The two of them were purely engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Even if they had caused quite a number of injuries, they would recover in a few breaths.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    Such a crazy battle caused Zhou Feng to involuntarily howl.


    The circulation of Spiritual Qi became smoother and smoother as the battle progressed, while his understanding of the Demon-Devouring Battle Art became deeper and deeper. At the same time, an avatar started to condense behind Zhou Feng.


    Opposite him, Sun Gui also condensed an avatar behind his back.


    Compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar, Sun Gui¡¯s avatar was much more solid.


    Moreover, Sun Gui¡¯s avatar emitted a suction force that was constantly pulling Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Zhou Feng had no choice but to divert a portion of his energy to deal with this suction force.


    Although Sun Gui¡¯s realm and usage of the three Demon-Devouring Arts far surpassed Zhou Feng¡¯s, he could not take down Zhou Feng no matter how he tried.


    Zhou Feng had the passive Battle Instincts, which allowed him to predict any attack in advance. He would also make the best choice in battle.


    Furthermore, the Demon-Devouring Gu provided pure Spiritual Qi that was not inferior to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    Thus, the two sides were in a stalemate.


    ¡®No way! It can¡¯t be over so soon!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt his Spiritual Qi weakening. It turned out that the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body was about to die!


    Although the Demon-Devouring Gu could explode with power for a short period, allowing the host¡¯s strength to skyrocket beyond their realm, this duration was extremely short. After all, the Demon-Devouring Gu itself was of the Pixiu attribute.


    Bursting out with power in one wave was already giving face to the host; a long burst was simply impossible.


    To put it simply, the Demon-Devouring Gu was not happy.


    Thus, Zhou Feng had to take advantage of this period to resolve this crisis.


    ¡°Give Little Flower back to me!¡±


    Unlike Zhou Feng, who was running on fumes, Sun Gui seemed to have some strength to spare.


    He condensed his Spiritual Qi into a spear and hurled it at Zhou Feng.


    His Spiritual Qi could be molded into any shape with the Demon-Devouring Battle Art¡¯s support. Hence, the attacks Zhou Feng faced were also varied.


    What Zhou Feng found most annoying was the Demon-Devouring Armor on Sun Gui¡¯s body. He simply could not break its defense.


    Sun Gui¡¯s was a little too strong!


    ¡®Who exactly is Little Flower?/


    Zhou Feng had heard Sun Gui mumbling this name repeatedly, so he realized that it might be his breakthrough point.


    Zhou Feng had nothing to lose, so he casually said, ¡°Little Flower is behind you!¡±


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know who Little Flower was, he used this method to distract Sun Gui.


    Whether Sun Gui believed it or not was up to fate.


    Well¡­ he actually fell for it!?


    Zhou Feng swore that it was just a casual remark.


    Sun Gui turned back without hesitation but did not find Little Flower behind him, not even a shadow.


    Zhou Feng seized this opportunity and condensed a long spear with his Spiritual Qi.


    The long spear tore through the air with a sharp whistling sound and pierced through Sun Gui¡¯s back!


    Sun Gui¡¯s attention was elsewhere, so Zhou Feng finally broke through the Demon-Devouring Armor protecting him.


    ¡°You lied to me!¡±


    Sun Gui, who had come back to his senses, immediately went crazy.


    More than ten demonic avatars split out behind him, each of which had a slightly different form. The only similarity was that each demonic avatar had a suction force.


    The suction force attracted many wood chips, stones, and so on, just like a magnet.


    ¡°Little Flower is really behind you! Look!¡± shouted Zhou Feng for the sake of trying.


    After all, Sun Gui had fallen for it once, so the chances of falling for it again were close to zero. How could there be such a stupid person in the world?


    Well¡­ Sun Gui fell for it again!


    The avatar behind him immediately disappeared, and then he turned his head to look.


    Zhou Feng seized this opportunity and pierced through Sun Gui¡¯s throat with another long spear.


    ¡°Break!¡±


    Zhou Feng squeezed out the last bit of Spiritual Qi and decapitated Sun Gui. He then kicked away Sun Gui¡¯s head, sending it flying far away.


    After doing all this, he lay on the ground.


    ¡°It¡¯s over?¡±


    He couldn¡¯t believe it. It was over just like that?


    This time, it was too dangerous. If it weren¡¯t for Sun Gui¡¯s mental problems, he wouldn¡¯t have won.


    This was too exciting!


    This battle with Sun Gui had started inexplicably and ended inexplicably.


    Zhou Feng guessed that the so-called Little Flower should be Sun Gui¡¯s lover. Or it could be said that she must have been a very important person to him. Otherwise, Sun Gui wouldn¡¯t have acted in such a way.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng had guessed correctly.


    Sun Gui and Little Flower had been a couple. They had joined the Tri-Gu Sect at the same time and had also become members of Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    However, there had still been a trace of kindness in their hearts, and they had been unable to get used to the inner sect¡¯s environment.


    Subsequently, Little Flower had become a hunting target because her cultivation could not keep up.


    When Sun Gui had found Little Flower, only her head was left.


    In the end, Sun Gui¡¯s personality darkened while his mental state became abnormal, but he could not see it.


    Zhou Feng naturally did not know about this, but even if he knew, he would at most express his apology and would not be too sad.


    That was because when he had been in the Gu Refinement Cave, he had already had a clear understanding of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Zhou Feng did not want to think about other things. He only cared about what he could obtain.


    Would Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation directly rise to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation if he devoured the Demon-Devouring Gu of Sun Gui, a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator?


    At that thought, he dug open Sun Gui¡¯s chest, located the Demon-Devouring Gu, and swallowed it!

 Chapter 45 - Passive: Armor-Piercing Spear!?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After Zhou Feng¡¯s wildly beating heart gradually calmed down, he swallowed Sun Gui¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu.


    Soon, an enormous amount of Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi filled up his meridians, and the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body also began to happily absorb Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    Unfortunately, the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi were extremely chaotic.


    It was evident that Sun Gui had been continuously swallowing other people¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu to raise his cultivation.


    Naturally, Sun Gui¡¯s spiritual power was not pure at all, so all sorts of resistance and blockages arose spontaneously.


    The circulation of spiritual power was like a rusty old car, slow and inefficient.


    What was more serious was that the Blood Qi had mixed with many people¡¯s Blood Qi and had not even been refined.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s muscles started to expand while blue veins spread throughout his body like a dragon.


    His Spiritual Qi started to surge and move throughout his body.


    The side effects of this Demon-Devouring Gu were somewhat unexpected, but this, fortunately, was within Zhou Feng¡¯s tolerance.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in his body did not care if the Spiritual Qi was pure or not and whether the Blood Qi was chaotic or not. It would simply devour them!


    The surge of Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi also initiated the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s reverse-feeding. The portion of ¡®food¡¯ was a little large, so the Demon-Devouring Gu was a little bloated.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng had obtained the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s approval.


    It had only been a short while, but there was already so much Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi for it to swallow.


    Thus, the Demon-Devouring Gu started to invest, feeding back pure Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    It wanted to assist Zhou Feng in raising his cultivation quickly to devour more Demon-Devouring Gu.


    Hence, his cultivation rose, and he broke through to the Qi Condensation realm in an instant.


    1st Level of Qi Condensation¡­


    2nd Level of Qi Condensation¡­


    ¡­


    9th Level of Qi Condensation!?


    The Spiritual Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was crazily compressed, and his cultivation level instantly soared to the 9tth Level of Qi Condensation.


    Even though his Spiritual Qi appeared chaotic, its quality still rose.


    Compared to the Qi Gathering realm, the Spiritual Qi in his body now could completely crush it. Even the injuries on his body had all recovered.


    ¡°This is too awesome!¡±


    This cheat-like speed of advancement was really fascinating.


    No wonder those people who were addicted to the unorthodox path were willing to indulge even though they knew there were many side effects.


    This feeling was simply intoxicating.


    Can you imagine it?


    You didn¡¯t need to do anything at all. You didn¡¯t need to cultivate dully, nor did you need to comprehend anything.


    Just by swallowing the others¡¯ Demon-Devouring Gu, you would break through from initial-level Qi Gathering realm to late-level Qi Condensation realm in one go.


    Such a quick shortcut was really hard to refuse.


    Even if the Spiritual Qi was not pure enough, the ¦¢lood Qi was chaotic, and the battle prowess might be slightly lower than those of the same realm, this was still acceptable.


    Moreover, the above-mentioned problems could be slowly solved.


    ¡°The Demonic Path! No wonder it exists to this day!¡±


    Zhou Feng forced himself to calm down as a lot of negative thoughts had appeared in his mind just now.


    He had to restrain himself. If he allowed his desires to consume him and acted recklessly, then he would be no different from those madmen on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    After calming down, he looted the corpse, which had become a habit of his. After all, he could be considered poor and did not have many businesses to back him financially.


    ¡°Is this the knife?¡±


    Zhou Feng picked up the knife that Sun Gui had used to attack him.


    At that moment, he noticed that this knife was not stained with any blood.


    It still emitted a faint cold glimmer under the dim moonlight, giving people a bizarre chill.


    He also noticed that the handle of the knife was just a piece of broken wood.


    He may not know what material it was made of, but he had already tried its sharpness.


    Even with the protection of the Demon-Devouring Armor and Bone Coating, the knife had almost killed him.


    He didn¡¯t know where Sun Gui had gotten his hands on such a weapon.


    Could this be the legendary spiritual artifact?


    But it did not seem like it!


    It was said that spiritual artifacts needed to be soaked in Spiritual Qi for a long time, and they would possess incredible spirituality.


    Once an artifact was infused with Spiritual Qi, it would be able to unleash great power.


    Because of this, the number of spiritual artifacts had always been very small, except for the need to find the right materials.


    They also needed special methods to maintain them, or they would just be ordinary weapons.


    Next, he searched Sun Gui¡¯s body.


    Unfortunately, there was nothing.


    Apart from the small knife that he had just obtained, Sun Gui did not have anything on him.


    ¡°I should be able to draw passive skills now!¡±


    After a simple search, Zhou Feng turned his attention back to the skill panel.


    According to his previous experience, since he had devoured so much Spiritual Qi, the skill panel¡¯s progress bar was definitely full.


    As expected, the progress bar was not only full, but its color also changed.


    ¡°It actually turned purple?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised as the progress bar¡¯s color had actually turned purple. This meant that the passive skill that he had drawn would definitely not be of low quality.


    Although it had not reached gold quality, it definitely would not be too bad.


    Hope was a passive skill that could directly increase one¡¯s battle prowess.


    To be honest, he had been lucky to win earlier.


    If Sun Gui¡¯s mental state had been normal, he would have had almost no chance to escape from his pursuit.


    That feeling of powerlessness left one hopeless.


    Moreover, he hated being crushed by others.


    As he had said before, the thing that he hated the most was being weaker than his opponent in terms of realm.


    Challenging someone of a higher cultivation level sounded very impressive, but it wasn¡¯t something he wanted either.


    What Zhou Feng wanted the most was to suppress his opponent in terms of cultivation level. As for being challenged by some monsters of a higher cultivation level?


    This wasn¡¯t within his considerations at all. In any case, he didn¡¯t want to lose to his opponent in terms of cultivation level.


    Therefore, this Demon-Devouring Technique really suited his mentality.


    Anyway, putting aside other things for the time being, his cultivation speed was definitely fast enough.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    He suppressed those complicated thoughts in the blink of an eye as it was time to draw out the next passive skill.


    [Drawing¡­]


    [Drawing successful!]


    Armor-Piercing Spear (Level 1): ¦´our attack is like a sharp spear, able to pierce through the enemy¡¯s defense.


    Each of your attacks will ignore 1% of the enemy¡¯s defense and directly attack the main body.


    Note: You can not cross a major realm.


    ¡®This is¡­ armor-piercing!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was stunned upon seeing the passive skill¡¯s description.


    ¡°Great! Finally, an offense-type passive!¡±


    At that moment, he was exhilarated because he had finally drawn an offense-type passive skill.


    Moreover, this passive seemed to be very perverse!


    Directly ignoring the opponent¡¯s defense? Attacking the enemy¡¯s main body?


    Although there were restrictions, and it wouldn¡¯t be effective against enemies whose cultivation surpassed his, it was still strong enough.


    Don¡¯t look down on this 1% armor-piercing effect because it could directly attack the enemy¡¯s main body..

 Chapter 46 - The Martial Arts Competition Began

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This armor-piercing attribute could be said to be extremely powerful.


    From the Qi Gathering realm onward, almost all cultivators would use their spiritual power to protect their bodies.


    Moreover, they would usually have special defensive means, such as the Demon-Devouring Armor.


    In order to attack the opponent, one must break through their protective layer of spiritual power.


    This was also an important part of the gap between mortals and cultivators.


    Ordinary sword and knife techniques were unable to break through the defense of the protective spiritual power layer. Only spiritual power attacks could break through it.


    However, this Armor-Piercing Spear directly ignored the protective spiritual power layer and attacked the main body.


    In terms of battle, Zhou Feng had a huge advantage.


    ¡°9th Level of Qi Condensation! And then there¡¯s the Armor-Piercing Spear!¡±


    At that moment, he was full of confidence for the martial arts competition.


    After all, his realm was truly there, and he could be considered outstanding among all the inner disciples.


    Moreover, he had obtained the passive Armor-Piercing Spear.


    Taking advantage of the fact that it was still not bright yet, Zhou Feng planned to return and rest.


    The martial arts competition was tomorrow, and he had to recuperate well.


    ¡­


    The martial arts competition could be said to be the most important day of every month for the Tri-Gu Sect.


    This was because it involved the distribution of many benefits.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was the largest in the vicinity, and they supported many cultivators.


    Naturally, it was impossible to obtain all the resources from Mount Gu.


    Many places produced special resources, and the Tri-Gu Sect would send disciples to guard them.


    And the disciples that went out to guard were equivalent to the officials of the border. They only needed to complete the sect¡¯s quota.


    As for the remaining resources, they had to snatch them with their power.


    Of course, the prerequisite was that you could become the guarding disciple and have the ability to guard the resources.


    That¡¯s right! Becoming the guarding disciple was only the first step. The second step was to compete with other sects.


    For example, there was a spirit stone mine that had been discovered a while ago at Mount Gu¡¯s periphery.


    This spirit stone mine did not belong to the Tri-Gu Sect. The other sects would also send their disciples over to fight for it. Only if they successfully defended it would they be able to mine the Spirit Stones.


    The sects, including the Tri-Gu Sect, seemed to have made an agreement.


    Depending on how precious the resources were, they would send different people to guard them.


    Basically, there would not be any big or small pressure, so the competitors were basically all in the same realm.


    One of the fundamental purposes of the martial arts competition was to select elite disciples to fight against the other sects¡¯ disciples for more resources for the sect.


    At the same time, those elite disciples who received recognition could also leave Mount Gu and go to the outside world.


    As for the inner disciples who dawdled around, they would probably never be able to leave Mount Gu in their entire lives.


    They were even inferior to some outsiders who were doing business in the marketplace. After all, those people could at least walk outside and see different sceneries.


    As for the Tri-Gu disciples, they could only stay in the sect for the rest of their lives if there were no accidents. They were prepared to become nourishment for other disciples at all times.


    The martial arts competition was held at the martial arts practice field at the mountain¡¯s peak, and there would be Elders watching.


    As for the Sect Leader, if they were lucky, they might see him. Under normal circumstances, the Sect Leader would be in closed-door cultivation.


    Another thing worth mentioning was that many people in the mountainside market would open their auctions every time there was a martial arts competition.


    The most popular auction would naturally be the one that would win first place.


    Meanwhile, this was a great opportunity for the inner disciples to become famous.


    ¡­


    Qian Shang and his daughter were also very concerned about this martial arts competition because their patron, Zhou Feng, would also participate in this event.


    ¡°Father? Did you buy it?¡± Qian Qianqian immediately asked when she heard that her father had returned.


    ¡°I bought it! It¡¯s still as expensive as ever!¡± Qian Shang held a booklet in his hand, his face full of pain.


    Unfortunately, there was no other way. He had to buy this booklet because it recorded the information of many inner disciples. The group of people who had opened the market sold it.


    If an outsider like Qian Shang wanted to survive in the market, he had to be well-informed and avoid provoking people who shouldn¡¯t be provoked.


    And this booklet recorded many people who shouldn¡¯t be provoked.


    Although it cost a full Spirit Stone, Qian Shang had still gnashed his teeth and bought it.


    This was also an investment. As a businessman, sometimes he couldn¡¯t bear to part with it.


    ¡°Qianqian! Daddy will read it to you now!¡±


    Qian Shang read out loud the information recorded in the booklet to his good daughter.


    Although the booklet was very small, there were quite a lot of people recorded in it, including Lin Xiaojiao and Liu Yan, whom Zhou Feng had met before, and even Zhao Wu.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s information was not recorded in the booklet.


    ¡°There¡¯s no Young Master Zhou?¡±


    After turning to the last page, Qian Shang realized there was no information about Zhou Feng in the entire booklet.


    His heart instantly turned cold. After all, he had invested a lot in Zhou Feng.


    One had to know that the people recorded in this booklet were those with more potential in the inner sect.


    Since Zhou Feng¡¯s name was not in it, his previous investment was probably going to go down the drain.


    ¡°No? Then did we rush to invest in him?¡±


    Qian Qianqian did not have any expression when she heard this.


    At most, she would give up most of her wealth. Compared to her father, Qian Qianqian did not have much interest in money.


    Thus, she was very calm now.


    Not to mention Qian Shang and his daughter, the entire Mount Gu was bustling with activity.


    The mountain peak that was usually empty was now filled with people.


    Zhou Feng had also mingled among them early on.


    ¡°Are those Penta-Poison disciples?¡±


    He had finally seen the inner Penta-Poison disciples.


    The Penta-Poison and Bloodthirsty disciples usually occupied one side and rarely communicated with each other, so Zhou Feng rarely saw the Penta-Poison disciples.


    Even in the marketplace, he did not see many of them. It was said that the Penta-Poison faction also had its own marketplace on the other side.


    It was said that the Penta-Poison faction nurtured experts who used poison and controlled various Gu.


    They did not know how strong they were.


    Without thinking much, Zhou Feng went to the registration office to register.


    That¡¯s right! Not all inner disciples had to participate in this martial arts competition.


    Instead, the disciples had to register themselves to participate.


    Every martial arts competition would have many casualties, so few new inner disciples would sign up. One had to be very confident in their strength.


    After signing up, Zhou Feng received a small wooden tablet with #99 written on it.


    After that, he waited quietly.


    There were already people fighting in the middle of the martial arts practice field.


    There weren¡¯t any Elders, so only disciples and a few instructors were maintaining order.


    The fighting process was very simple and crude. The two people who were called to the stage would immediately start fighting.


    There were no rules. Whoever could stand to the end would win.


    Moreover, they would not give you the chance to recover from your injuries. The next time they called for you, you had to fight on the stage.


    Even if you were already injured, no one would care about you.


    This martial arts competition was extremely unrestrained and crude..

 Chapter 47 - Zhao Wu’s Threat?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After understanding the specific rules of the martial arts competition, he couldn¡¯t help but exclaim that it was wild enough.


    The cruel and straightforward rules directly eliminated most of the people. Those who were able to remain were definitely not weak at all.


    After all, they had to go through many battle rounds until the final ten spots would be decided.


    After a while, Zhou Feng saw a familiar face. It was Lin Xiaojiao, whom Zhou Feng had met when he was guarding the gate.


    ¡°How come she seems to have lost a lot of weight?¡±


    The current Lin Xiaojiao had lost a lot of weight compared to when he had met her.


    However, from afar, she still looked like a mountain of meat.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng also sensed Lin Xiaojiao¡¯s realm¡ª9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm! They were both at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, just a step away from forging a Soul Altar.


    Unexpectedly, her wave-like Blood Qi made him feel some pressure out of thin air. Her Blood Qi even made his surroundings become hot, even though they were both at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    But why did he feel that his strength was weaker by more than a level?


    ¡®So strong!?¡¯


    Lin Xiaojiao¡¯s opponent did not even have the strength to fight back, and she was heavily injured after just a few hits.


    ¡°It is indeed Lin Xiaojiao! She is still so domineering!¡±


    ¡°I heard that Lin Xiaojiao¡¯s Peerless Gu is about to reach great success! As long as she can successfully break through to the Soul Altar realm, this body of fat will disappear!¡±


    ¡°Her Peerless Gu is about to succeed? No way!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Lin Xiaojiao had just left when the onlookers started discussing.


    And this was also the best time for Zhou Feng to gather information.


    He did not have any good friends or acquaintances in this sect.


    Bitter Bamboo Peak was full of lunatics, so Zhou Feng usually could get very little information. In fact, if he did not have a sect token, the whole sect would not pay attention to him.


    Thus, in terms of obtaining information, he did not have any channels at all.


    Naturally, he had to take advantage of the martial arts competition to collect as much information as possible.


    ¡°Peerless Gu? This should be a Gu similar to the Demon-Devouring Gu!¡±


    Almost every peak had a special Gu, so Lin Xiaojiao¡¯s Peerless Gu should be similar to the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    In fact, this Peerless Gu was unique to Green Bamboo Peak.


    This was also a variant of the Bloodthirsty Gu, cultivating together with the Peerless Battle Art.


    At the early stage of cultivation, the Peerless Gu would require Blood Qi and Essence Qi.


    This situation was even worse than the Demon-Devouring Gu, as the Peerless Gu would absorb the host¡¯s Blood Qi and Essence Qi at all times.


    In order to feed the Peerless Gu, Green Bamboo Peak¡¯s method was to use dual cultivation to forcefully absorb other people¡¯s Essence Qi and Blood Qi.


    Green Bamboo Peak might have a nice name, but what it did was not much better than Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    If Bitter Bamboo Peak was a group of cannibals, then Green Bamboo Peak was a group of ultimate perverts.


    The males kept female slaves, while the females kept male servants, which was considered nothing. The most outrageous thing was the dual cultivation method, which was extremely cruel.


    Once dual cultivation was over, the other party would become addicted, and there was almost no cure.


    If the addiction flared up, they would beg you for dual cultivation.


    At the end of dual cultivation, the other party would be sucked dry alive.


    And at the later stage of dual cultivation, the person who was sucked would be in more pain, but the addiction would be greater.


    Later on, there was no need for the people of Green Bamboo Peak to force them. Even if they knew that they would be sucked dry alive, those female slaves and male servants would come to their masters¡¯ door.


    That was why no one in the Tri-Gu Sect dared to associate with the people of Green Bamboo Peak.


    It was too dangerous!


    The Blood Qi and Essence Qi obtained through crazy dual cultivation would be stored in the host¡¯s body, and they would wait for the Peerless Gu to slowly absorb it until it underwent a transformation.


    This was also why Lin Xiaojiao had always been so fat, like a mountain of meat.


    If the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s effect was to let Zhou Feng cultivate Demonic Qi, then the Peerless Gu would be forging a Peerless Body.


    Among the Tri-Gu Sect, the strongest in terms of physical combat would be Green Bamboo Peak after Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    It could even be said that Green Bamboo Peak¡¯s people had peerless physical bodies and did not use spiritual energy in battle.


    They relied entirely on their extremely strong physical bodies.


    However, it was challenging to initiate the Peerless Gu¡¯s transformation. It had been a long time since anyone from Green Bamboo Peak had successfully transformed their Peerless Gu.


    At present, the Peerless Gu in Lin Xiaojiao¡¯s body was their greatest hope, so Lin Xiaojiao had obtained many resources from Green Bamboo Peak.


    This was also one of the reasons Lin Xiaojiao was so generous.


    ¡°Gu? Using Gu to fight?¡±


    Zhou Feng saw people from the Penta-Poison faction fighting toward the back.


    He saw a person covered in a black cloth directly controlling a giant flying centipede.


    The giant flying centipede was not big. It was only half the size of a fist, but it was swift.


    It was almost impossible to catch its tracks with the naked eye. At the same time, its entire body seemed to be made of fine iron, and its defense was extremely high.


    The person fighting this centipede tried all kinds of methods, but they could not harm it.


    In the end, the centipede bit him, and he instantly died of poison.


    After the battle ended, the large centipede returned to the body of the black-clothed person.


    ¡°Amazing! As expected of a Penta-Poison Peak disciple. The poison of this flying centipede is really strong. It only took a simple bite to kill that person!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This Hu Feng seems to have entered the inner sect less than a year ago. He¡¯s really amazing!¡±


    ¡°A year and he¡¯s already at the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm? There must be someone behind this!¡±


    ¡°I heard that the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s deacon is his uncle!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng eavesdropped again and learned that this black-clothed man was called Hu Feng, and he was a Penta-Poison Peak disciple.


    Moreover, he came to a conclusion from the conversations of these people¡ªit was extremely exaggerated for a person to reach the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm in a year.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng discovered that the surrounding people¡¯s cultivation levels were not low.


    At the very least, they were at the first levels of the Qi Condensation realm. Even though they had not reached the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm, they were still in the Qi Condensation realm!


    ¡°The one on the stage now is Young Master Zhao Wu, right?¡±


    ¡°I think so! I heard that he is also a genius who broke through to the Qi Condensation realm in less than half a year!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! But his backer mustn¡¯t be anything special. If he had enough resources, he should be at the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm by now!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s spirit jolted upon hearing this familiar name.


    He and Zhao Wu had been ¡®friends¡¯ for a long time.


    When he had still been in the Gu Refinement Cave, the two sides had had some grudges. Still, he had only heard rumors about Zhao Wu and never met the actual person, nor did he know Zhao Wu¡¯s specific cultivation level.


    Now, he could finally see it.


    ¡®3rd Level of Qi Condensation?¡¯


    After slightly sensing Zhao Wu¡¯s cultivation level, Zhou Feng realized that he was only at the 3rd Level of the Qi Condensation realm.


    Perhaps a few months ago, the 3rd Level of the Qi Condensation realm had been an unreachable goal for him.


    But now, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation level had already reached the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    From the looks of it, Zhao Wu no longer posed a threat to him.


    The threat of an inner disciple? Zhou Feng was also an inner disciple!


    Who knew what expression Zhao Wu would have when he found out about his realm?

 Chapter 48 - Instant Kill

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhao Wu¡¯s appearance was also somewhat out of Zhou Feng¡¯s expectations.


    He had always heard others call Zhao Wu ¡°Young Master¡±, so he had been under the impression that Zhao Wu had the appearance of a young master from an aristocratic family.


    But in reality, it wasn¡¯t like that.


    Zhao Wu was wearing a simple black-tight suit. His appearance was ordinary, and he had the appearance of a passerby.


    Moreover, he wasn¡¯t particularly tall and was about a head shorter than a normal person. He even revealed a simple and honest temperament.


    From his appearance, he looked like an honest migrant worker.


    Soon, Zhao Wu started fighting.


    ¡°Crimson Spiritual Qi?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the color of Zhao Wu¡¯s spiritual power and raised his eyebrows slightly.


    ¡°So powerful! The Bloodthirsty Demonic Technique has already reached the second level of perfection!¡±


    ¡°I can feel my Blood Qi being pulled even from so far away!¡±


    ¡°The Blood Gu in Zhao Wu¡¯s body has undergone many transformations!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The onlookers started to discuss.


    Zhao Wu cultivated the Bloodthirsty Demonic Technique, and the Gu in his body was also called Blood Gu.


    This was the Bloodthirsty Gu¡¯s most orthodox path of evolution.


    Cultivating the Bloodthirsty Demonic Technique made it effortless to control one¡¯s own Blood Qi as well as the opponent¡¯s.


    In a battle, the most troublesome thing would be to control their Blood Qi at all times. Otherwise, if the Blood Qi went against the flow, one would be heavily injured.


    Moreover, this Bloodthirsty Demonic Technique could even devour blood to recover from injuries.


    In terms of survivability, it was at full capacity.


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng found an interesting pattern.


    As long as one was from the Bloodthirsty faction, their recovery ability and resilience were tenacious.


    Moreover, most of their bodies were very strong, so they did not have many weaknesses.


    As for the Penta-Poison faction, they were like partial students. They spent all their energy cultivating Gu.


    What made Zhou Feng feel strange was that according to the information he had gathered, the battle between the Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction had always been to the Penta-Poison faction¡¯s advantage.


    Among the three factions, the battle between the Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction was very serious.


    It was evident from the fact that the two factions had split up Mount Gu.


    Very few people from the Penta-Poison faction stood close to Zhou Feng.


    If it was not for the inner sect martial arts competition, there would not be so many people from the Penta-Poison faction.


    ¡°Could it be because of the cost of nurturing them?¡±


    Although the Bloodthirsty faction seemed to be stronger and their actual battle prowess was exceptional, they did not have many people.


    In any case, Bitter Bamboo Peak definitely did not have many people. When he had first joined Bitter Bamboo Peak, it had the most people. Yet, the number of disciples there kept decreasing the past few months.


    Zhou Feng felt that there were not even 20 people on Bitter Bamboo Peak right now.


    Zhou Feng got a better understanding of the Tri-Gu Sect thanks to this competition.


    At the same time, he had also seen many things.


    At present, the only thing that he was interested in was the Sect Leader¡¯s faction.


    The Tri-Gu Sect nurtured three types of Gu, yet why were there only people with Bloodthirsty Gu and Penta-Poison Gu?


    What about the Sect Leader¡¯s Ice Spirit Gu? Since the two factions were so powerful, why wouldn¡¯t they fight for the Sect Leader¡¯s position?


    These questions were worth pondering.


    ¡°Number 99!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was deep in thought, a voice woke him up.


    It was his turn to fight!


    In this short period, many people had been eliminated.


    This was because this martial arts competition was all about going all out, regardless of how much strength was left.


    In any case, the opponent would be eliminated first, and each person who entered would be able to obtain more cultivation resources.


    They could even obtain the true favor of the Elders.


    Although there weren¡¯t any Elders watching from the stands, in reality, each Elder would send someone to observe the crowd.


    They would check whether there were any good seedlings. If there were, they would naturally take them.


    On the path of cultivation, a genius disciple was also a type of cultivation resource.


    In this world, the relationship between a disciple and their Master was even stronger than a blood relationship. After all, the further one went, the lonelier and bumpier the path of cultivation became.


    When one broke through to the Soul Altar realm, they would clearly feel the hardships of the path of cultivation.


    Without the mutual support of people of the same path, it was very difficult to persevere.


    Zhou Feng restrained all of his thoughts, and his face returned to calmness.


    He slowly walked to the center of the arena.


    ¡°Bitter Bamboo Peak? As expected, it¡¯s a new face!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It Can¡¯t be another 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator, right?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s probably true! Those lunatics from Bitter Bamboo Peak don¡¯t have much to say!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng, who went up on stage, quite a few onlookers didn¡¯t have much interest in discussing.


    There was no need to discuss it. The people who came from Bitter Bamboo Peak every once in a while were all different.


    And every time a new person appeared, it would always be a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator. They were simply a bunch of monsters and lunatics.


    Zhou Feng ignored all the discussions around him. He was now staring intently at his opponent.


    His opponent was dressed in black, directly wrapping his entire body, not even letting his head off. He should be from the Penta-Poison faction.


    ¡°Begin!¡±


    The battle began just like that.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s opponent consumed a few pills. No one knew what he consumed.


    ¡°He used poison?¡±


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable.


    He had been poisoned in a mere instant!?


    Soon, Poison Immunity was triggered, and it expelled the poison from his body.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Zhou Feng condensed his Spiritual Qi into a spear and hurled it. It was a simple throw, but it was as fast as lightning.


    The opponent¡¯s reaction was swift. His body twisted forcefully like a snake, and then he opened his mouth and spat out a puff of green smoke.


    Did he try to poison him just like that?


    Zhou Feng no longer probed. His body turned into a black shadow and rose from the ground.


    Ignoring the green smoke, he rushed in front of the opponent.


    During this process, he could feel his clothes sizzling. Did the green smoke corrode them?


    Unfortunately, the green smoke could not break through his Demon-Devouring Armor.


    Zhou Feng got close and threw a punch!


    The opponent¡¯s head was dislocated before Zhou Feng twisted it and gave a simple kick.


    Zhou Feng won!


    There was no suspense in this battle. The difference in battle prowess between the two sides was overwhelming.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s opponent was only at the 5th Level of the Qi Condensation realm, and all of his abilities were related to poison.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, was not afraid of ordinary poison at all. Since the opponent¡¯s greatest advantage had been countered, the battle was already a done deal.


    ¡°He¡¯s actually not afraid of the poison of the Ten-Thousand Poison Gu? He¡¯s indeed at the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm!¡±


    ¡°That must be the Demon-Devouring Armor! Another monster!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Although they knew that Bitter Bamboo Peak produced monsters all year round, many people still did not expect Zhou Feng¡¯s strength to be so outstanding.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng¡¯s opponent was a disciple of Myriad Poison Peak.


    Inside his body resided the Myriad Poison Gu, which specialized in researching poison, and he also cultivated poison techniques.


    Even though his hand-to-hand combat ability was very poor, he was way more versed in poisoning his opponents.


    One might get poisoned without even noticing it!


    Moreover, because he cultivated poison techniques, the Myriad Poison Peak disciples¡¯ bodies were full of poison. As long as one got a little closer, they would be poisoned.


    When one used their spiritual power to fight, they would instantly be poisoned because the other party¡¯s spiritual power contained poison as well.


    This was also the person that many people did not want to meet during the martial arts competition. Even if they won, they would be disgusted to death.


    However, they did not expect Zhou Feng to win so cleanly and effortlessly.. He did not seem to be afraid of the Myriad Poison Peak¡¯s poison at all!

 Chapter 49 - Liu Yan’s Shock

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Not afraid of poison? Special constitution? Or what?¡±


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s easy victory, some of the people who were observing below suddenly became interested.


    The Myriad Poison Peak¡¯s poison hadn¡¯t affected Zhou Feng in the slightest, so it was only natural they assumed he had a special constitution.


    Even if the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s Demon-Devouring Technique was very mystical, it was absolutely impossible to completely ignore such a violent poison.


    Then there was only one explanation, a special constitution!


    Special constitution! This was something that only very few people possessed.


    There would always be mutant individuals among the common people, and these mutant individuals were collectively known as special constitutions.


    These special constitutions might not necessarily be able to increase one¡¯s cultivation speed.


    It might even be of no use in most situations and would instead become a burden.


    Also, these special constitutions appeared very randomly and were extremely hard to see.


    But among these special constitutions, there was a special constitution called the Myriad Poison Constitution.


    People with the Myriad Poison Constitution were naturally immune to poison, and they didn¡¯t have to worry about side effects when cultivating poison techniques.


    And this was also the constitution that the Myriad Poison Peak had been searching for all along because only this constitution had the possibility of becoming the Myriad Poison Peak¡¯s true disciple.


    Moreover, it was possible for one to become the next Peak Master of Myriad Poison Peak.


    ¡°I have to confirm it! Such a good seedling can not be wasted!¡±


    As the Myriad Poison Peak¡¯s manager, Wei Guang quietly slipped to Zhou Feng¡¯s side.


    Zhou Feng, who had just won this battle, suddenly felt all the hair on his body stand up.


    ¡°Who is it?¡±


    This sense of danger appeared quickly, and he immediately moved to the side.


    ¡®I¡¯m poisoned!?¡¯


    Then he realized that he was poisoned!


    Poison Immunity had unknowingly repelled the poison in his body.


    Then, that sense of crisis spread like a mighty wind.


    ¡°What a pity! It¡¯s not the Myriad Poison Constitution!¡±


    Wei Guang¡¯s expression was slightly regretful.


    Zhou Feng did not possess the Myriad Poison Constitution as the real thing would not only ignore the poison when it was poisoned. It could even swallow the poison to strengthen itself and would not send the poison out of the body.


    Obviously, this Bitter Bamboo Peak disciple had some secrets.


    But if it was not the Myriad Poison Constitution, Wei Guang was not interested at all.


    One had to know that the price of snatching people from Bitter Bamboo Peak was too high.


    If one wanted to snatch people from the hands of that old monster, the First Elder, the price would be at least ten times higher.


    Although Zhou Feng was a good seedling, he already had the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    Under such circumstances, the price of digging him to the Myriad Poison Peak was still too great.


    Thus, after Wei Guang probed for a bit, he directly slipped away quietly.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng¡¯s brows were tightly knitted.


    ¡®Someone plotted against me just now? And even poisoned me?¡¯


    He felt that the person who had done so should be in the Soul Altar realm.


    Only with Soul Altar cultivation could he be poisoned without feeling anything.


    It was too dangerous! This Tri-Gu Sect was simply too dangerous!


    Someone had actually poisoned him at the martial arts competition.


    ¡®It¡¯s not fast enough! My cultivation speed is not fast enough!¡¯


    Zhou Feng once again felt that his cultivation was not high enough, and his cultivation speed was not fast enough.


    Was the 9th Level of Qi Condensation very impressive?


    And he was just an ordinary inner disciple.


    He needed a faster cultivation speed!


    The demon devouring gu should be able to devour other Gu Worms.


    There was also the Level-2 Gluttony, which allowed Zhou Feng to gain some Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi every time.


    As long as Zhou Feng let go of his scruples and crazily devoured all kinds of spiritual items and Gu, his cultivation would definitely soar.


    Previously, he had said that he would have no misgivings and completely lean toward the Demonic Path, but in reality, he was still quite restrained.


    Normally, he would rely on the boring method of absorbing Spiritual Qi to cultivate.


    After all, using the characteristics of the Demon-Devouring Technique recklessly still had many side effects.


    The mixed Spiritual Qi was the most noticeable side effect.


    If all the messy things were devoured, it was very easy to cause the Spiritual Qi to clash. The Blood Qi would scatter chaotically and would not gather together.


    This was like a ticking time bomb. It could explode at any moment.


    It was because of all these reasons that he had some misgivings in his heart.


    ¡®I don¡¯t have enough Spirit Stones either! I need more Spirit Stones, and then I will have more passive skills!¡¯


    The incident just now had aroused Zhou Feng¡¯s desire to live.


    Too conservative!


    His previous actions had been too conservative.


    With the Demon-Devouring Gu and the Demon-Devouring Technique and so many passive skills, he could be even more aggressive.


    ¡°Number 99!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng¡¯s breathing became more rapid, it was his turn to fight again.


    This time, he was facing a Penta-Poison Peak disciple.


    This person was also completely wrapped up, and not a single bit of his skin was exposed.


    What was a little scary was his face, which was full of small potholes.


    Countless small bumps covered his entire face. This feeling was as if his face had been washed by sulfuric acid.


    It directly made people feel a little uncomfortable.


    Moreover, this person seemed to have quite a reputation in the inner sect.


    Just as they walked to the center, many people immediately quieted down.


    ¡°Quick! Lower your voice! This is Zheng Tu! Don¡¯t be targeted!¡±


    ¡°I heard that this person is cruel. Someone took one more look at him and was tortured alive for seven days!¡±


    ¡°Is he that terrifying?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! So lower our voice¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As they spoke, the surroundings became quieter and quieter.


    However, those who shut up were only ordinary inner disciples.


    ¡°He¡¯s so ugly! He dares to come out in the daytime with this appearance!¡±


    ¡°His appearance is not even one-tenth of that of the young man opposite him!¡±


    A voice suddenly echoed. It was particularly ear-piercing.


    Zhou Feng turned his head to look and realized that it was Liu Yan, whom he had met previously.


    Liu Yan was still as charming as before. Her fair skin even reflected a white light under the sunlight.


    When she saw him turn his head, Liu Yan even winked at him.


    This slightly vulgar action seemed very natural, and it made the hearts of many people nearby beat faster.


    ¡®9th Level of Qi Condensation? What speed! Even with the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu, this speed isn¡¯t normal!¡¯


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that Liu Yan¡¯s heart was very shocked at this moment.


    Liu Yan had met him not long ago.


    At that time, Zhou Feng had still been guarding the gate. It seemed that his cultivation hadn¡¯t even reached the Qi Condensation realm back then, right?


    How had he reached the 9th Level of Qi Condensation in the blink of an eye?


    At that moment, Liu Yan thought that she had mistaken him for someone else.


    After rechecking a few times, Liu Yan confirmed that Zhou Feng had reached the 9th Level of Qi Condensation in such a short period.


    Liu Yan had some understanding of the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu devoured each other, so it was much easier to increase one¡¯s cultivation than other peaks.


    But if one wanted to directly jump to the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm, they had to at least kill a person at the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm.


    How had Zhou Feng accomplished It?


    Liu Yan felt that she could have crushed Zhou Feng with one hand back then.


    Now she felt a sense of danger from Zhou Feng.


    Compared with other people who did not know the inside story, Liu Yan understood what Zhou Feng¡¯s promotion speed indicated..

 Chapter 50 - Love Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zheng Tu¡¯s aura was distorted upon hearing Liu Yan¡¯s words. He hated it the most when others made fun of his appearance.


    Zheng Tu looked like that because he cultivated the Penta-Poison Technique, so his body was infected by various toxins, and his skin became ugly.


    This was probably a common problem the Penta-Poison Peak disciples faced, as their bodies contained various toxins.


    These toxins conflicted with each other, causing their bodies to be prone to various problems.


    Why did most of the Penta-Poison Peak disciples conceal their bodies?


    This was the reason. Compared to their faces, the festering bodies were even more disgusting.


    ¡°Liu Yan? Black Widow?¡±


    Zheng Tu glanced at Liu Yan and quickly lowered his head, not daring to let Liu Yan see his expression.


    This was because Liu Yan was more famous in the inner sect.


    Although Liu Yan¡¯s clothes were revealing and she often looked flirtatious, he would stay away from this witch as long as she stayed in the inner sect for a period.


    Strength was only one aspect. To be able to make Zheng Tu so afraid, her strength naturally did not need to be mentioned.


    Liu Yan was able to fight head-on with Lin Xiaojiao, who had the Peerless Gu.


    One had to know the Peerless Gu specialized in cultivating the body.


    Directly fighting head-on was something that most people in the inner sect could not do.


    The most terrifying aspect was that apart from her physical body, Liu Yan¡¯s spiritual power was also very dense.


    All of this was because the Love Gu resided in Liu Yan¡¯s body.


    The Love Gu was a special variant of the Penta-Poison Gu, and it used a woman¡¯s flesh and blood to nurture itself. Moreover, the moment it was planted, the host would be poisoned by the Heartless Poison.


    This Love Gu secreted the Heartless Poison, and as long as it was present, it would be impossible to remove it.


    The Heartless Poison would make the host¡¯s appearance beautiful, and the body would also emit a fragrance all the time.


    The above-mentioned were not enough to scare people.


    The most frightening ability of this Love Gu was that it could split a portion of itself to produce the Seed Gu. They had a mother-child relationship.


    The child Gu could be planted in someone else¡¯s body, but only under the condition that the other party was deeply in love with the host.


    There was nothing wrong with planting the Seed Gu in the early stages.


    On the contrary, it could endlessly absorb nutrients from the Love Gu.


    It was not strange for the person who planted the Seed Gu to soar from a mortal to the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm.


    But in the end, it would come the time to pay the debt. The person with the Seed Gu would be willing to give everything he had, and even his mind would be distorted.


    His mind would be filled with love, and he would be willing to sacrifice everything, Blood Qi, Spiritual Qi, etc., for his lover.


    The most extreme ones would even use their bodies to feed the Meat Gu, just to let their lovers have more cultivation resources.


    Moreover, because of the Love Gu and the Seed Gu¡¯s relationship, the latter¡¯s Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi were of the same origin. Thus, there would not be too many side effects when it was absorbed.


    Unlike Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu, which would cause the Spiritual Qi to be chaotic and the Blood Qi to be scattered.


    Since this Love Gu was so powerful, everyone might think that no one would dare to approach Liu Yan. In reality, however, countless people were throwing themselves at her.


    It was still the same old saying, ¡°Even if you die under the peony flower, you will still be a romantic.¡±


    At least 90% of men simply could not resist the temptation of such a beautiful woman in front of them, not to mention that the Love Gu secreted the scent of aphrodisiac.


    Coincidentally, Liu Yan¡¯s previous dao companion had died not long ago.


    Now was the time for Liu Yan to find a partner, and many potential inner disciples were hiding from Liu Yan.


    Zheng Tu was naturally afraid of being targeted.


    Therefore, in the face of Liu Yan¡¯s humiliation, he only dared to lower his head.


    ¡®Since I can¡¯t deal with Black Widow Liu Yan, then I will deal with you.¡¯


    Zheng Tu did not dare to vent his anger on Liu Yan. Naturally, he targeted Zhou Feng.


    As expected, he was from Bitter Bamboo Peak. His spiritual power was chaotic, while his Blood Qi was very scattered.


    Zheng Tu had already released a few small spiders just now to probe Zhou Feng¡¯s condition.


    There was even a poisonous spider that was slowly crawling toward Zhou Feng¡¯s feet.


    ¡®I¡¯ll torture him for seven days! Seven Days is more than enough time!¡¯ thought Zheng Tu.


    The others might be afraid of the Bitter Bamboo Peak monsters, but he was not.


    Once the people of Bitter Bamboo Peak entered battle mode, they were like brainless beasts.


    Zheng Tu was best at dealing with such enemies.


    On the other side, Zhou Feng glanced at Liu Yan and felt a sense of danger. Then, he felt a resentful gaze looking at him.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Surging Demonic Qi erupted from his body, and the Demon-Devouring Armor condensed on his body.


    A large amount of Spiritual Qi condensed into tentacles, which were like giant pythons.


    A faintly discernible demonic avatar also appeared behind Zhou Feng. This demonic avatar was controlling these countless tentacles.


    This was an offensive method that he had comprehended from the Demon-Devouring Battle Art.


    Speaking of which, this was an inspiration Senior Brother Sun had helped him realize. He used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art to condense a demonic avatar, which could control those tentacles.


    Zhou Feng had also considered why he had condensed all the Spiritual Qi in his body into tentacles.


    It was because his spiritual power¡¯s reserves were huge but very loose as well. Its quality was not better than many other people of the same realm.


    The only advantage was the large quantity, so he naturally had to display it.


    Although the strength of these demon tentacles was not high, they could constantly regenerate by relying on the continuous flow of Spiritual Qi.


    These tentacles would continuously regenerate as long as he did not exhaust his body¡¯s Spiritual Qi reserves.


    Originally, Zhou Feng had planned to use this as his trump card.


    But now, what trump card did he need? He needed more resources, and his cultivation speed needed to be accelerated!


    More than a dozen tentacles attacked Zheng Tu, while Zhou Feng also launched an attack.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Zheng Tu¡¯s reaction was swift, and his movement technique was very good. He immediately predicted the attack patterns and dodged many of the tentacles.


    One could see a few strands of spider silk tied to Zhou Feng¡¯s back when looking carefully.


    Then, a large spider jumped in the air in an attempt to land on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    At the same time, another tiny spider jumped on Zhou Feng¡¯s leg. Then, it fiercely bit down.


    Zhou Feng was attracted by the huge spider approaching his face and did not pay attention to the tiny spider on his leg.


    Moreover, his Battle Instinct did not warn him of danger, so Zhou Feng still used the tactic of exchanging injuries for injuries.


    He charged toward Zheng Tu again, and the tentacle on his back immediately grabbed the flying spider and threw it to the side.


    ¡°You actually dare to ignore my Origin-Destroying Spider? You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    A cruel smile appeared on Zheng Tu¡¯s face upon seeing this.


    Sure enough, the people of Bitter Bamboo Peak were brainless. They actually dared to ignore his Origin-Destroying Spider.


    If it was someone from another peak, they definitely wouldn¡¯t be so careless.


    If he charged forward like a boorish man, other than being played to death, what other outcome could there be?


    Unexpectedly, the smile on Zheng Tu¡¯s face froze in the next second!

 Chapter 51 - Killing List

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The smile on Zheng Tu¡¯s face froze because his Origin-Destroying Spider didn¡¯t react at all when it bit Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Why did Zheng Tu dare to say that he wasn¡¯t afraid of the people of Bitter Bamboo Peak?


    Half of his confidence came from this Origin-Destroying Spider, which was very special. Its poison wasn¡¯t fatal, and a bite would at most paralyze the body for a period.


    Some cultivators with strong physical bodies could even withstand the paralysis.


    However, the Origin-Destroying Spider had a very powerful characteristic. It could break through the protective layer of spiritual power and was extremely difficult to detect.


    When you noticed it, you might have already been bitten by the Origin-Destroying Spider.


    In addition, the Origin-Destroying Spider was tiny. Those who were a little careless would almost never notice the Origin-Destroying Spider¡¯s existence.


    According to Zheng Tu¡¯s plan, he would rely on the Origin-Destroying Spider to bite Zhou Feng.


    This would cause Zhou Feng¡¯s body to enter a state of paralysis. Later on, he would be able to rely on all sorts of methods to pull Zhou Feng to death.


    However, the plan could not proceed at all. Zhou Feng acted as if nothing had happened.


    ¡®I was bitten!?¡¯


    The moment Zhou Feng was bitten, he realized that his Demon-Devouring Armor had actually been broken.


    Moreover, it had broken soundlessly, causing him to be bitten.


    However, nothing had happened with this bite.


    Therefore, he did not care. After all, he was immune to poison, so it was impossible to use poison to kill him.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was expressionless, and he did not say anything.


    The tentacles on his back surrounded Zheng Tu from all directions.


    ¡°Myriad Spider Poison Technique!¡±


    The corners of Zheng Tu¡¯s eyes twitched slightly upon feeling the overwhelming pressure. He did not dare to show any mercy and immediately unleashed his strongest move.


    Numerous spiders crawled out of Zheng Tu¡¯s clothes.


    The scene was simply astonishing. It was like a plague of locusts crossing the border.


    All sorts of spiders jumped toward Zhou Feng.


    There was a spider with hair on its legs and eyes that emitted a strange red color. Its poisonous fangs were extremely big.


    It was like a raging torrent as it pounced at Zhou Feng.


    Under such circumstances, the others were instantly stunned.


    ¡°Where did such a spider come from?¡±


    ¡°Damn, it¡¯s too scary!¡±


    These spiders were of all sorts of colors, and one could tell that each of them was highly toxic with just one look.


    ¡°How terrifying!¡±


    ¡°These spiders were previously hidden in storage bags?¡±


    ¡°I heard that the Penta-Poison Peak has a special gu-raising bag. They should be stored there.¡±


    ¡°How do we hide from it? And every spider has a lethal poison! Every bite¡­¡±


    The people next to them could not help but shudder. Goosebumps crawled all over their backs.


    Next, they saw a super brave scene.


    Zhou Feng only used his hands to protect his head, ignoring the spiders, and charged toward Zheng Tu.


    ¡°I¡¯ve finally caught you!¡± His face twitched as he squeezed out a few words.


    Although Zhou Feng was not afraid of poison, tens of thousands of spiders had bitten his body.


    The pain was almost like 10,000 ants biting the heart, and wounds of all sizes covered his body.


    ¡°Oh no!¡±


    Zheng Tu¡¯s face turned pale as he realized that something was wrong.


    He had let his guard down a little earlier because when a normal person encountered a venom of poisonous spiders, their instinctive reaction was to dodge as much as possible.


    Even if they could not dodge perfectly, they still had to try to receive fewer bites.


    Based on this mentality, Zheng Tu¡¯s nerves, which had been tense earlier, had relaxed.


    Zhou Feng grabbed Zheng Tu¡¯s arms with both hands, and the tentacles on his back began to bite crazily.


    ¡°I don¡¯t believe that you are immune to any poison!¡±


    Zheng Tu opened his mouth in a panic and spat out a spider.


    Compared to the previous spider, this one was very different. As soon as it appeared, Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to give a warning.


    He was already vigilant, so he swept the spider aside with his Spiritual Qi tentacles.


    Following that, Zheng Tu was directly torn into pieces.


    A tentacle grabbed a part of Zheng Tu¡¯s body and continuously tore it apart.


    The brutal scene was extremely bloody. Zheng Tu¡¯s body had been torn to more than ten pieces.


    Moreover, due to his tenacious vitality, those parts of Zheng Tu¡¯s body were actually still twitching.


    In the end, Zhou Feng stomped on Zheng Tu¡¯s head and crushed it, ending the battle.


    The battle¡¯s outcome was shocking. Zheng Tu¡¯s body had been torn to pieces, and even his head was crushed.


    As for Zhou Feng, his entire body was bleeding, and large amounts of poisonous blood kept flowing out of the wounds.


    From afar, it looked rather frightening.


    ¡®It hurts!¡¯


    The intense pain caused the veins on his forehead to bulge.


    He did not know how those spiders were nurtured, but the Demon-Devouring Armor covering his body was ineffective against them.


    This may have to do with the fact that he had not mastered the Demon-Devouring Armor to the point of perfection. After all, he had just entered the initial stage of the Demon-Devouring Armor, so it should be unable to defend against so many spiders.


    On the other hand, the defense of his physical body was able to withstand the bites of many spiders.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body had been passively strengthened a few times, so his defense was already very high. Otherwise, the numerous spiders¡¯ bites should have stripped him off of his flesh.


    With the death of Zheng Tu, more than half of the spiders died, leaving only a few fleeing frantically.


    The surrounding Penta-Poison Peak disciples took this opportunity to start collecting these fleeing spiders.


    ¡°So fierce! He¡¯s actually not afraid of the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s poison?¡±


    ¡°It seems that another influential figure will appear in the inner sect!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At that moment, many people looked at Zhou Feng with a hint of respect.


    The brutal battle had been engraved in their hearts.


    This was too brave!


    He ignored the opponent¡¯s attacks and even the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s poison.


    Even if both sides suffered heavy injuries, he would tear his opponent into pieces and stomp on his head until it exploded.


    If one encountered such a ruthless person, it would be better for them to just surrender.


    ¡°What kind of constitution is this? The wounds are already healing?¡±


    Liu Yan, who had inflamed the battle, still maintained her composure, but her heart was already surging with emotions.


    Zhou Feng was not afraid of poison, and those small wounds started to heal in such a short period.


    That¡¯s right! This was Zhou Feng¡¯s Self-Healing Constitution passively taking effect.


    Self-Healing Constitution could recover such small wounds quickly.


    No one else noticed such a small detail; only Liu Yan did.


    ¡®Such strength! Is this true? Not long ago¡­¡¯


    Liu Yan¡¯s heart was restless.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had increased too quickly, and this became apparent when Zhou Feng just glanced at her.


    That¡¯s right! After tearing Zheng Tu into pieces, Zhou Feng did not forget Liu Yan, who was at the side.


    This woman seemed to be deliberately looking for trouble. She wanted both him and Zheng Tu to suffer heavy losses.


    In addition to his previous bad impression of this woman, Zhou Feng planned to put Liu Yan on the must-kill list.


    There were not many normal people in this sect anyway. If he wanted to kill her, then he would kill her. This definitely would not be a wrongful death..

 Chapter 52 - Being Plotted Against

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Other than Liu Yan, who was a little anxious, another person was almost frightened to death.


    This person was Zhao Wu, who had a grudge against Zhou Feng.


    ¡°9th Level of Qi Condensation!? How long has it been?¡±


    Cold sweat appeared on Zhao Wu¡¯s forehead.


    According to the previous investigation, Zhou Feng had just entered the Qi Gathering realm and had been arranged to enter Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Ever since Zhao Wu had learned that Zhou Feng would join Bitter Bamboo Peak, he had not paid any attention to him. After all, a place like Bitter Bamboo Peak was not a place that ordinary people could live.


    As such, he had never expected that not only would Zhou Feng not become Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s nourishment, but he would also gain momentum and jump to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation in a short period.


    What kind of monster was this!?


    Before this, Zhao Wu had even thought that the person in front of him was just someone with the same name.


    For this, he even spent some time verifying that the Zhou Feng in front of him was the one who had a conflict with him.


    Seeking peace? Impossible!


    No one in the Tri-Gu Sect would choose to seek peace, especially in the inner sect.


    Accepting your apology and turning hostile was already standard practice.


    Then there was only one way left, to get rid of the other party and any future troubles.


    ¡°To be able to climb out of the Gu Refinement Cave and survive in Bitter Bamboo Peak, and even break through to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation in such a short period¡­¡±


    Such a terrifying cultivation speed instantly gave Zhao Wu a good idea.


    With such a cultivation speed, Zhou Feng definitely had to have a treasure on him.


    And it was at the level of a divine treasure that could assist in cultivation!?


    This piece of news was enough to make countless people go crazy.


    As for whether Zhou Feng really had a divine treasure that could assist in cultivation, it was no longer important.


    As long as this piece of news spread, then it would be a success.


    Usually, a rumor was enough to sink a person into a quagmire.


    Thinking of this, Zhao Wu slowly retreated, completely concealing himself.


    Now, he should seize the opportunity and hide well.


    Zhao Wu instantly decided to give up on this martial arts competition.


    In any case, he was still young, and his cultivation still had room for improvement. This was only his first year in the inner sect.


    The most important thing was to protect his life.


    ¡®Someone is plotting against me?¡¯


    As Zhao Wu left, Zhou Feng frowned and looked in the direction where he headed.


    Battle Instinct had just warned him as if someone was plotting against him.


    This feeling only lasted for a moment, and there was nothing he could do. He could only focus his attention back on the martial arts competition this time.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s consecutive victories instantly attracted a lot of attention. No one had expected that such a dark horse would appear in the martial arts competition.


    Many people had already begun to try to curry favor with him, most of them inner disciples who didn¡¯t have much aptitude.


    These inner disciples¡¯ cultivation wasn¡¯t very high, and they were also timid. They didn¡¯t dare to participate in the martial arts competition.


    Therefore, every time the martial arts competition was held, they would select some genius disciples to join, becoming their underlings in exchange for resources.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng naturally rejected all of them.


    Compared to forming a group, Zhou Feng preferred to be alone.


    The main reason was that he had the skill panel. He did not want to expose this secret.


    Although the probability of the skill panel being exposed was extremely low, he did not want to take this risk.


    ¡®This person seems to be a good dao partner candidate! Also¡­ I was actually scared just now?¡±¡®


    Liu Yan, who had already calmed down, suddenly discovered that Zhou Feng was a very suitable candidate to plant the Seed Gu.


    At that moment, Liu Yan¡¯s gaze toward Zhou Feng had a slight change.


    With such potential and strength, he had the qualifications to become her dao partner.


    If she had Zhou Feng as nourishment, perhaps she would be able to advance to the Soul Altar realm even faster!


    Liu Yan¡¯s slender fingers lightly played with her long black hair as she began to fantasize in her heart.


    At present, ordinary targets were no longer worthy of her attention. Even if countless people in the inner sect threw themselves at her, wishing to spend a whole night with her, Liu Yan would not choose just anyone. This was entirely because it would take three months for the Love Gu to produce a Seed Gu.


    Once the Seed Gu was planted, she could only wait for the Seed Gu to mature and allow the Love Gu to absorb it before it could produce another one again.


    This caused Liu Yan to have very high standards in choosing dao companions.


    Only devil-like geniuses could catch her eye.


    Unfortunately, those people were basically very wary of her. In the early stages, Liu Yan might have been able to use various methods to coax some people to become her nourishment, but her peers in terms of cultivation were not fools.


    They would not give Liu Yan any chance at all. It was even difficult for them to even meet once.


    If Liu Yan wanted to advance to the Soul Altar realm, she would need a person at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation to be her nourishment.


    She would give everything she had to herself.


    However, it was challenging to find such a person. She had already been searching for a very long time.


    Now that she thought about it, wasn¡¯t Zhou Feng the best candidate?


    There was no organization behind Bitter Bamboo Peak, and Zhou Feng was a lone wolf. He probably didn¡¯t even know about the Love Gu.


    After all, Bitter Bamboo Peak was the only peak in the Tri-Gu Sect that didn¡¯t have a Scripture Hall.


    All the inheritances were on the stone tablet at the top of the mountain. There wasn¡¯t even a deacon.


    ¡®Looks like I need to go back and concoct more aphrodisiac incense!¡¯


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s hostility toward her, it would be impossible for Liu Yan to make him her dao companion.


    Hence, she could only come up with something else.


    ¡°Hm?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brows were tightly furrowed as he looked at Liu Yan, who was slowly leaving.


    Why did it feel like people always wanted to plot against him during the martial arts competition?


    That constant sense of danger made Zhou Feng extremely uncomfortable.


    Just as he continued to participate in the martial arts competition, the market¡¯s opening also changed.


    ¡­


    ¡°Black horse! Black horse! A big black horse has appeared in the martial arts competition!¡±


    ¡°The opening ratio needs to be adjusted! At the same time, new information is being sold!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A group of gamblers had already gathered in the market.


    More people were attracted when they heard that a big black horse had appeared in the martial arts competition.


    Basically, those who were attracted were people who had shops in the market.


    This was because a black horse meant a big backer with no connections to any power. If they could get close to it in advance, they might be able to make a fortune from it.


    Regardless of which world it was, some people would take advantage of everything.


    This naturally included Qian Shang and his daughter. Qian Shang even dreamed that one day he would be able to return to Eastern Land.


    Therefore, he paid special attention to this aspect.


    ¡°I wonder who this big black horse is.¡±


    Qian Shang¡¯s face revealed a pained expression. In order to snatch this latest information, he naturally had to pay a lot of money.


    However, in the next second, Qian Shang instantly felt that this money was worth it.


    ¡°This¡­ This¡­ This¡­ couldn¡¯t be such a coincidence! I really got lucky!?¡±


    Qian Shang¡¯s eyes widened as if he couldn¡¯t believe it..

 Chapter 53 - Impossible to Refuse

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Qian Shang couldn¡¯t believe it. His investment had really succeeded!


    ¡°It¡¯s the Bitter Bamboo Peak! The name isn¡¯t wrong either! Did the investment really succeed!?¡±


    This information clearly introduced Zhou Feng¡¯s specific information.


    Zhou Feng


    Origin: Bitter Bamboo Peak


    Cultivation: 9th Level of Qi Condensation


    Evaluation: He should have learned Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s three Demon-Devouring Arts, and there is a high probability that he has a special constitution that can ignore all kinds of lethal poisons.


    ¡­


    His name was Zhou Feng, and he was from the Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    There shouldn¡¯t be a second one in the entire inner sect.


    For a moment, Qian Shang¡¯s heart began to surge with excitement. An inner disciple at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation was his backer. His business could definitely use this east wind to develop.


    He also had the confidence to do some things that he didn¡¯t dare to do in the past.


    ¡°Father! Let¡¯s maintain the status quo! Now is not the time!¡± Qian Qianqian could not help but pour cold water on him from the side.


    Although her family¡¯s backer had suddenly become a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator, in the end, there was no friendship between the two sides.


    Under such circumstances, it was better not to cause so much trouble.


    Maintaining the status quo in peace was the best choice.


    ¡°This¡­ Good, good, good!¡± Qian Shang calmed down when he heard his daughter¡¯s words and chose to listen to his daughter¡¯s opinion.


    From his previous experiences, there was nothing wrong with listening to his daughter. It was better not to be too anxious.


    Zhou Feng had no idea that his reputation had spread to all the markets.


    At present, he was akin to killing six generals after five hurdles. He directly swept through the inner sect and advanced into the top ten.


    What made him feel strange was that he hadn¡¯t met any powerful opponents during this process, such as Liu Yan and Lin Xiaojiao.


    It was as if he had been deliberately isolated.


    After all, he didn¡¯t allow these people to fight head-on.


    As for the rumored inner sect¡¯s monsters, none of them appeared.


    ¡°This month¡¯s martial arts competition has ended!¡±


    What surprised Zhou Feng even more was that after the top ten were decided, an old man appeared and announced that the martial arts competition had ended.


    Ended? It ended just like that?


    This didn¡¯t seem right!


    ¡°Follow me!¡± Old Man Niu said to Zhou Feng alone.


    The others quickly left after the martial arts competition ended.


    ¡°Okay!¡± replied Zhou Feng.


    He was brought directly to Myriad Gu Tower.


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had entered Myriad Gu Tower.


    It was the first place he had seen when he entered the inner sect.


    This was where new disciples obtained their Gu, and there were many buildings beside it.


    As for what the Myriad Gu Tower did, Zhou Feng did not know.


    He was currently following behind Old Man Niu, who looked like an ordinary old man. He was wearing coarse linen clothes, his face was full of wrinkles, and his hands and feet looked very thin.


    However, Zhou Feng felt a vague pressure. This feeling was not very clear, but it was real.


    Unfortunately, Old Man Niu had not said a word until now, so Zhou Feng could not ask anything.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    After entering the Myriad Gu Tower and walking from the first floor to the second floor, Zhou Feng saw a very spectacular scene.


    There were actually countless cells on the second floor, and these cells were all breeding different Gu.


    At the same time, there were many people busy there.


    This feeling¡­ was like a research base? The Tri-Gu Sect actually had such a place?


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s heart, the Tri-Gu Sect was a demonic sect. Other than fighting and killing, there was no normal person in the entire sect.


    Thus, he did not expect this Myriad Gu Tower to be a research base.


    Zhou Feng could tell from these people¡¯s skilled actions that this was definitely not an act. They were seriously nurturing all sorts of Gu.


    At that moment, he thought of the Scent-Locking Gu he had obtained from Xiong Dan¡­


    No wonder he had been able to develop a supplementary Gu like the Scent-Locking Gu. It was because of the Myriad Gu Tower¡¯s existence.


    Not long after, Zhou Feng was brought into a room.


    ¡°I know you have many questions, so let me explain now.¡±


    Old Man Niu took out a map, and without giving him a chance to speak, he started talking.


    ¡°After the martial arts competition, you can be considered a seedling that can be nurtured!


    ¡°Unfortunately, you are from Bitter Bamboo Peak, so this old man can only tell you a few things.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    It turned out that the martial arts competition was not what Zhou Feng had previously understood.


    The martial arts competition was indeed the best way for inner disciples to earn cultivation resources.


    At the same time, the martial arts competition was a way for the sect to select good seedlings.


    As for which good seedlings to select?


    As mentioned earlier, those below the Soul Altar realm were all pretty much the same. Only by advancing to the Soul Altar realm could one be considered a true cultivator.


    There was a qualitative difference in battle strength between the Soul Altar realm and the Qi Condensation realm.


    For the Tri-Gu Sect, Soul Altar cultivators were a part of the sect and its pillar.


    Therefore, the good seedlings chosen through the martial arts competition were actually good seedlings that had the chance to break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    As long as you had the potential to reach the Soul Altar realm, the main peak would give you some help, such as the most important Spirit Nurturing Pill for breaking through to the Soul Altar realm. This pill could only be refined by the Pill Masters at the main peak.


    As for the others, they had long made all preparations because there was someone behind them.


    However, Zhou Feng, who was from Bitter Bamboo Peak, was different. There were no normal people on Bitter Bamboo Peak at all.


    They were all mentally ill, so he did not have any backers.


    Hence, Old Man Niu had set his sights on him.


    ¡°During this period, the sect has been fighting with the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect. This mine¡­¡±


    After listening for a while, Zhou Feng finally understood.


    To put it simply, the Tri-Gu Sect had been fighting with the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect over a special ore.


    Now, he was asked to go to one of the mine caves to fish out the White Bone Temple¡¯s Soul Altar cultivators.


    Then, he would have to wait for the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s Soul Altar cultivators to find an opportunity and take action.


    This was directly bullying him because he had no backer and no Master!


    Thanks to his 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivation, his battle prowess was strong enough. If Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t take down a cultivator of the same cultivation level, Old Man Niu would have to send out Soul Altar cultivators if he wanted to quickly resolve the issue.


    Furthermore, without a backer or Master, many sects¡¯ unspoken rules were unknown.


    Zhou Feng was simply the perfect bait. Even if he sacrificed himself in the end, no one would be able to hold Old Man Niu accountable.


    At most, Old Man Niu could send a batch of new disciples to the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s First Elder.


    In any case, given the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s characteristics, a disciple would reach the 9th Level of the Qi Condensation realm quickly.


    ¡°As long as this matter is successful, besides the secret to breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, there¡¯s also a Spirit Nurturing Pill!¡±


    Old Man Niu¡¯s tone did not give Zhou Feng the chance to refuse at all.


    However, in order to make him work hard, Old Man Niu still presented a big mouth-watering carrot..

 Chapter 54 - Heart-Linking Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng did not know the specific function of the Spirit Nurturing Pill, so he immediately asked, ¡°This Spirit Nurturing Pill is¡­¡±


    ¡°Spirit Nurturing Pill is a supplementary pill for breaking through to the Soul Altar realm. It can increase the success rate of forging a Soul Altar!¡±


    Old Man Niu gave a simple explanation.


    ¡°Alright! Later you can go to the first level of the Scripture Pavilion. It has all the things you want to know. Now give me a clear answer!¡±


    Old Man Niu took out a small token, which could allow Zhou Feng to enter the Scripture Pavilion once.


    Of course, Zhou Feng could only view the first level of the Scripture Pavilion.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Zhou Feng agreed without hesitation.


    He had no choice at this time. If he dared to say no, then Old Man Niu might instantly turn hostile.


    After all the previous experiences, Zhou Feng was already able to safely agree to this.


    Other than this, there were two other reasons he had agreed.


    One of them was that he would leave the Mount Gu range. This mine was located at the edge of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s territory.


    Would he have a chance to escape from the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s control?


    If he stayed in Mountain Gu, Zhou Feng felt that he would have no chance to escape.


    But if he was outside the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s territory, the chance of escaping would increase from 0 to 1%


    The other reason was his dear Eldest Senior Brother had been in seclusion for so long. He should be ready to come out.


    Regardless of whether he succeeded or failed, Zhou Feng felt that it was very dangerous. Accepting the sect mission to go out at this time was a good chance to escape.


    ¡°Very good!¡±


    When Old Man Niu heard him answer, a trace of a smile immediately appeared on his face.


    At the same time, a small black worm instantly appeared and flew to Zhou Feng¡¯s chest in the blink of an eye.


    It was too fast!


    Even if his Battle Instinct was triggered, Zhou Feng could not react in time.


    A burst of intense pain came from his chest.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that a worm had bitten open his skin and flesh and then drilled into it.


    This kind of feeling was simply chilling.


    ¡°This is the Heart-Linking Gu. As long as it¡¯s a disciple below the Soul Altar realm, they need to plant it when they go out!¡±


    A small black beetle crawled out of Old Man Niu¡¯s hand.


    ¡°I hope you don¡¯t have any other thoughts when the time comes. Otherwise, you can only sacrifice yourself for the sect!¡± His tone was full of warning and admonishment.


    THe Heart-Linking Gu was unique to the Tri-Gu Sects, and it was also an important method that assisted the Tri-Gu Sect to maintain control until now.


    The Heart-Linking Gu was divided into the mother, and child Gu, which was somewhat similar to the Love Gu introduced earlier.


    However, this Heart-Linking Gu only had one pair, and the two corresponded with each other.


    As long as one of the Heart-Linking Gu died, the other Heart-Linking Gu would enter a berserk state and start to devour everything nearby.


    Moreover, the two Heart-Linking Gu had a special connection with each other. As long as one of them was in the vicinity, the other would react.


    Zhou Feng had just been ¡®bestowed¡¯ with the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s child Gu.


    Now that it was residing in his heart, as long as the mother Gu died, this child Gu would start to bite his heart.


    Also, if he tried to get rid of this child Gu, the mother Gu would react.


    ¡°Got it!¡±


    Even if Zhou Feng knew that the sect would have countermeasures against disciples fleeing, the anger in the heart could almost not be suppressed when the Heart-Linking Gu drilled into his chest.


    This is a very clear oppression of death, as their own life and death were in the hands of the enemy.


    ¡®It¡¯s still not the time! But it won¡¯t be long!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face didn¡¯t reveal much of an expression. After suppressing his anger, he comforted himself in his heart.


    Old Man Niu looked at the expressionless Zhou Feng, and he was expressionless as well. He had already seen too many things in these past few years.


    Endure patiently? Wait until you can return the suffering tenfold in the future? Don¡¯t be ridiculous!


    Was it so easy to break through to the Soul Altar realm? Even if one did, it would still be the most trashy Grade-9 Soul Altar.


    Moreover, without lifebound artifacts and corresponding means, they would only be cannon fodder even if one barely broke through.


    Also, was this Spirit Nurturing Pill that easy to refine? How could it be casually given to cannon fodder?


    That¡¯s right! In Old Man Niu¡¯s heart, Zhou Feng was only a sacrificial pawn, and the Spirit Nurturing Pill was just an empty promise.


    ¡°Alright! I¡¯ll get someone to deliver the martial arts competition¡¯s reward to you later! Now leave this place!


    ¡°Oh right! Remember that the mission time is three days later!¡±


    After Old Man Niu finished speaking, he immediately chased Zhou Feng away. He casually waved his hand as if he was chasing away a fly.


    Zhou Feng glanced at him indifferently and left without saying anything.


    ¡®This is really the plot of ¡°Don¡¯t bully the poor¡±! Soul Altar realm¡­¡¯


    He began to form a plan in his heart, but he had to make a trip to the Scripture Pavilion before that.


    At present, he urgently needed to understand the information of the Soul Altar realm and the specific functions of the Spirit Nurturing Pill.


    The last time he had been to the Scripture Pavilion, he had only chosen one footwork technique and had not been qualified to look at things like miscellaneous techniques.


    Now that he had this opportunity, he had to supplement it ruthlessly.


    His knowledge of this word¡¯s cultivation was still too lacking.


    Who asked him to be so unlucky to be involved with a demonic sect like the Tri-Gu Sect? Forget it.


    After entering the inner sect, he had even joined Bitter Bamboo Peak, the gathering place of lunatics.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng used a short amount of time to enter the first level of the Scripture Pavilion. Then, he found the location where the miscellaneous discussion books were placed.


    This area was filled with some cultivation insights, from the Body Tempering realm to the Soul Altar realm.


    For example, these insights would hint at how to perfectly refine one¡¯s body in the Body Tempering realm.


    Zhou Feng had neglected all of these steps. If it was before, he might have been in the mood to slowly savor them.


    Unfortunately, there was a ball of fire in his heart now. He only needed to understand how to reach the Soul Altar realm.


    Compared to other realms, there were only a few miscellaneous books on the cultivation of the Soul Altar realm.


    Zhou Feng casually picked up a book and forced himself to calm down and slowly flip through it.


    Soul Altar realm! What was the Soul Altar realm?


    The so-called Soul Altar realm actually referred to the head and also the place where the soul resided.


    The most important thing for the Soul Altar realm was to cast the Soul Altar and bear the soul power.


    Before forging the Soul Altar, although the cultivator had soul power, they could not harness it. Thus, they could not use soul power.


    Only by forging the Soul Altar and having a place to harness the soul power could they mobilize their soul power and use all kinds of methods.


    Among them, nurturing a lifebound artifact was one of the Soul Altar realm¡¯s major characteristics.


    After breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, one could nurture a lifebound artifact. A Soul Altar cultivator with a lifebound artifact would dominate the Qi Condensation realm.


    Among them, there were several ways to forge a Soul Altar. There were two main methods, one was to visualize, and the other was to borrow the aid of medicinal pills.


    The first method was to cultivate the visualization method and strengthen the power of one¡¯s soul.


    Then, step by step, the Soul Altar would be forged according to the visualization method.


    This was the exclusive property of some ancient factions because only they possessed visualization techniques and objects.


    One had to know that visualization techniques did not only require cultivation techniques. Other than cultivation techniques, visualization techniques could only be successfully cultivated with special visualization objects.


    Therefore, the majority of mainstream sects currently adopted the second method, which was to use medicinal pills. To be precise, they used Spirit Nurturing Pills..

 Chapter 55 - Drawing Passive Skills Again

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The Spirit Nurturing Pill was a type of medicinal pill specially developed for breaking through to the Soul Altar realm.


    It contained a trace of spirituality that could allow the cultivator to enter a semi-enlightenment state.


    In this special state, one could slowly guide the spiritual power in the body and transform into the power of the divine soul. Then, one could use the converted soul power to forge their Soul Altar.


    Therefore, the more abundant the spiritual power, the more spiritual power could be converted.


    The success rate of forging the Soul Altar would be higher.


    And it was precisely because of this that the Spirit Nurturing Pill was very precious no matter in every sect.


    This was practically a key to the Soul Altar realm.


    Of course, there weren¡¯t only two methods in this world. The cultivators had summarized these two methods, and they had the highest success rate.


    Before the Spirit Nurturing Pill had been created, people had wanted to break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    A small number of talented geniuses were born with strong spiritual power, and they comprehended the method to transform spiritual power into soul power on their own.


    This was exclusive to monsters, and other ordinary people could not imitate it at all.


    As for other ordinary people, they could only slowly grind and continuously refine the spiritual power in their bodies.


    If they refined their spiritual power to the limit, they would naturally be able to break through.


    ¡®Naturally be able to break through?¡¯


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng was a bit confused. What did it mean to be able to break through naturally?


    Water overflowing? Moreover, why did the process of breaking through to the Soul Altar realm feel a bit like refining Qi into soul power?


    This book only briefly introduced some knowledge about the Soul Altar realm, but it did not mention anything more specific.


    ¡®In other words, now I must either obtain a visualization technique or a Spirit Nurturing Pill¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned. He only had two methods of breaking through in front of him.


    One of the most promising ones should be obtaining a Spirit Nurturing Pill.


    If he could survive and complete the sect¡¯s mission, he should be able to obtain a Spirit Nurturing Pill, but he felt that it wasn¡¯t reliable.


    ¡®Then¡­ the Soul Altar is actually divided into grades?¡¯


    Flipping to the back, Zhou Feng discovered that there were actually grades after successfully forging the Soul Altar.


    After successfully forging the Soul Altar, there were different grades according to the size and method of forging.


    A Grade-1 Soul Altar was the highest. Legend had it that there was only one way if one wanted to cast a Grade-1 Soul Altar. That was to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth and comprehend a set of techniques that were most suitable for one¡¯s self. A Soul Altar would be formed by itself then!


    However, this method had not been successful for a very long time.


    The second method was to use a visualization technique. The Soul Altar that was cast could basically reach the Grade-2 to Grade-5.


    The last was to rely on medicinal pills, which could generally only forge Grade-6 to Grade-9 Soul Altars.


    Grade-9 Soul Altars were the weakest ones, and they could only nurture one soul artifact.


    In other words, if you wanted to nurture another soul artifact or even a divine artifact, you could only give up on the first soul artifact.


    Besides nurturing soul artifacts, Grade-9 Soul Altars could mobilize the weakest soul power.


    Of course, because the Grade-9 Soul Altars were the weakest, they were also the easiest to forge.


    Even some old cultivators refined their spiritual power for a lifetime, and in the end, they succeeded in breaking through before their lifespan ended.


    This book stated that at least one Grade-8 Soul Altar had to be forged. Otherwise, they would definitely regret it.


    A Grade-8 Soul Altar could store at least three soul artifacts and nurture them at the same time.


    He quickly finished reading this thin book.


    After reading it, Zhou Feng finally had some understanding of the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡®Wait! The Tri-Gu disciples actually cultivate together with Gu. Then¡­ is there a method to break through by relying on the Gu in one¡¯s body!?¡¯


    At that moment, he suddenly thought of this because he had previously relied on the Demon-Devouring Gu and its mystical ability, aka reverse-feeding, to reach the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    Breaking through to the Soul Altar realm should also be possible through the Demon-Devouring Gu!


    Unfortunately, even if there was such a technique, he hadn¡¯t come in contact with it.


    Forget it! He¡¯d better go back first!


    After understanding the relevant information about the Soul Altar realm, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any thoughts of staying here.


    At present, the most pressing matter was still facing the sect mission three days later.


    Now, Zhou Feng planned to return to Bitter Bamboo Peak and take a look at Senior Brother Sun¡¯s residence first.


    He remembered that Senior Brother Sun had actually been able to hide his cultivation.


    He had clearly been at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation. However, hadn¡¯t he attacked Zhou Feng, the latter would never have seen through him.


    And that small knife, the material wasn¡¯t ordinary either.


    Perhaps Senior Brother Sun had encountered some fortuitous encounter, so he could go and investigate.


    Since Senior Brother Sun was already gone, the rest of his things would belong to Zhou Feng!


    At Bitter Bamboo Peak¡­


    It was still the same quiet, eerie atmosphere.


    After Zhou Feng returned to Bitter Bamboo Peak, he also received the rewards from the martial arts competition.


    First of all, all the assets of the opponents he had fought before belonged to him now.


    Of course, that was the case for those who were dead. As for those who were not, they would still hand over half to him.


    He instantly understood why the martial arts competition was so dangerous and why so many people were participating.


    He had fought against many people, and there were a few whose cultivation levels were inferior to his.


    They were also inferior to him in terms of battle experience, but they still didn¡¯t fear death.


    ¡®So the winner¡¯s rewards were so generous?¡¯


    After the sect converted these people¡¯s properties into Spirit Stones, they handed them over to Zhou Feng.


    Of course, the sect would also charge for this process, which was also a common practice.


    ¡®So many Spirit Stones!?¡¯


    He simply counted them. The martial arts competition had actually earned him more than 500 Spirit Stones!?


    Qian Shang seemed to have given him 10 Spirit Stones as a protection fee before.


    With so many Spirit Stones, it should be enough for him to draw a few passive skills.


    Without hesitation, Zhou Feng began to cultivate in his room.


    After cultivating until nighttime, he would go to Senior Brother Sun¡¯s residence to investigate.


    And tonight, he could carry out the hunting plan.


    Zhou Feng held a Spirit Stone in one hand and continuously devoured the Spirit Stone¡¯s pure Spiritual Qi.


    At the same time, the progress bar of the skill panel was slowly advancing.


    During this process, the Demon-Devouring Gu also joined in the fun, devouring most of the Spiritual Qi that Zhou Feng had devoured.


    He did not really care about this as his Spirit Stones were enough to cultivate.


    Actually, Zhou Feng felt that cultivating now was no longer of any use.


    Even if he continued to use the Demon-Devouring Technique to devour the Spiritual Qi into his body, he was still at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    Breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, you ask?


    It would be almost impossible for him to do so.


    If he continued to absorb the Spiritual Qi, he would only be able to purify his spiritual power a little. There was no other use at all.


    He was only absorbing the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stone in order to draw a new passive skill.


    ¡­


    The sky turned dark, and the progress bar on the skill panel was finally full.


    In other words, he could now draw passive skills!


    ¡°Draw!¡± he ordered without any hesitation.


    [Drawing¡­]

 Chapter 56 - Devouring Crazily

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    Night Guardian (Level 1): If you are in the dark, you will receive the protection of the darkness. Your aura and traces will be hidden, and your sense of existence will be reduced.


    It will be difficult for the enemy to detect your figure.


    ¡°Night Guardian?¡±


    Zhou Feng read this new passive skill¡¯s introduction and raised his eyebrows slightly.


    This passive skill seemed to be quite good, and it was just right for his hunting plan.


    Night Guardian skill was a very simple skill. It would be equivalent to obtaining a concealment buff as long as it was nighttime.


    If others wanted to discover his tracks, it would become even more difficult.


    The simple explanation was that it reduced his sense of presence. If he was cautious enough, it was very likely that he would not be noticed.


    This seemed to be a perfect match with the passive skill he had previously drawn, Natural affinity. This passive skill could allow him to easily gain the good impression of flowers, birds, insects, and beasts. At the same time, it would allow him to blend into the surrounding environment when in the wild.


    Now, wouldn¡¯t it be challenging for anyone to discover him in the wild at night with the combo of Night Guardian and Natural Affinity!?


    This combo was not only a god-tier means of sneak attacking at night but also a life-saving trump card.


    If he were to dive into a ravine at night when being pursued, it would be very difficult for anyone to find him.


    ¡°Very good! Then let¡¯s go to Senior Brother Sun¡¯s residence to take a look first!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s confidence increased a little upon gaining a new passive ability.


    Now, he planned to go to Senior Brother Sun¡¯s residence to take a look first.


    After saying that, Zhou Feng stored all his things.


    But then again, as he had more and more things, the storage bag he had gotten from Zhao Jun seemed to be a little too small now.


    Should he consider changing to another storage bag?


    No matter what, he had a lot of Spirit Stones now, so it shouldn¡¯t be difficult to change to a slightly bigger storage bag!


    ¡­


    After a while, Zhou Feng snuck into Senior Brother Sun¡¯s residence under the cover of night.


    There was basically no one walking around Bitter Bamboo Peak at night. In addition, Zhou Feng had the passive protection of the night, so no one noticed him.


    He carefully walked into the room, and the moment he entered, a rotten stench assaulted him. The unpleasant smell made Zhou Feng hold his breath.


    Then, he saw a row of heads under the bed and a head on the bed.


    Moreover, there was a red robe under the head on the bed. It seemed to be¡­ a wedding dress?


    The interior of the room was very messy, and it seemed that no one had been organizing it.


    ¡°That is¡­¡±


    His sharp eyes noticed a storage bag on the bed. The outer surface of the storage bag was actually embroidered with gold thread, and it looked very different.


    Zhou Feng carefully picked up the storage bag and rummaged through the things inside.


    ¡°This is indeed Senior Brother Sun¡¯s storage bag!¡±


    There were quite a lot of Spirit Stones in the storage bag, about 20 of them, women¡¯s clothes, some books, and a few pills.


    The storage bag was also quite big, about twice as big as his storage bag.


    ¡°This is¡­ the complete collection of poisons? The Bewitching Incense? And¡­¡±


    There were some books on concocting poison in the storage bag to his surprise. There were even some methods of making pills.


    The Bewitching Incense Senior Brother Sun had used for his sneak attack was also recorded in the book.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng had always wanted to learn how to make poisons. After all, poisons were the most direct and effective way to kill people.


    However, there were no teaching manuals, so he couldn¡¯t learn.


    Now, he finally obtained the teaching manual.


    Apart from that, there was also a ¡®Turtle Breathing Art¡¯ in these books.


    This Turtle Breathing Art seemed to be a mystical technique that could hide one¡¯s cultivation.


    However, it required a special kind of medicinal pill to aid his cultivation. Presumably, Senior Brother Sun had been able to hide his cultivation because of this Turtle Breathing Art.


    Zhou Feng wanted to learn this kind of strange technique.


    Unfortunately, this kind of medicinal pill called the Turtle Breath Pill was needed to aid his cultivation. He could not cultivate it at all without this kind of medicinal pill.


    Therefore, he could only put it away first.


    It could be said that just these books alone were worth his trip.


    After putting the storage bag away, Zhou Feng swept his gaze across the room once more. When he realized that there was nothing else, he did not have the intention to continue staying.


    He had already wasted a lot of time and could not continue doing so. Otherwise, his plan would not come to fruition.


    Ever since Zhou Feng had accepted the sect mission, he had changed his previous hunting plan. He wanted to clear out the people on Bitter Bamboo Peak during these three days.


    Since he needed to increase his strength as soon as possible, what was the fastest way to accomplish that?


    Naturally, it was the Demon-Devouring Gu. It could not only devour large amounts of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi, but it could also speed up the progress of the skill panel and draw out more passive skills.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng planned to start at the foot of Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    As long as it was below the Qi Condensation realm, he would kill them all and turn them into nourishment for him.


    Zhou Feng looked at the dark night sky and muttered in his heart, ¡°Anyway, you are all affected by your appetite! Let me help you get rid of it!¡±


    The slaughterfest would commence tonight!


    The first victim was a Senior Brother. This Senior Brother¡¯s cultivation was not too bad. He was at the 9th Level of Qi Gathering realm, a step away from the Qi Induction realm.


    However, this Senior Brother appeared to be too weak compared to the current Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng quietly made his way outside this Senior Brother¡¯s room under the darkness¡¯s protection.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    A demonic avatar appeared, and more than ten tentacles suddenly burst open the door.


    Even though this Senior Brother was already vigilant enough, a tentacle pierced through his heart before he could react.


    ¡°The first one!¡±


    Zhou Feng dug out the poor man¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu and put it into his mouth with a calm expression.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in his body instantly became agitated and started to devour and disintegrate.


    His Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi became more abundant and also more mixed.


    The demonic avatar condensed by the Demon-Devouring Technique also became more solid.


    ¡®Success!¡¯ He simply collected it and moved to the next one.


    The second one¡­


    The third one¡­


    Finally, an accident happened when he visited the fourth target. He was not sleeping but cultivating. Thus, he let out a scream during the hunting process.


    ¡°No!¡±


    This miserable scream was extremely ear-piercing on the silent Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    However, no one walked out of their rooms.


    After a while, Bitter Bamboo Peak regained its silence again.


    Swallowing four people in a row made Zhou Feng feel a little bloated. It was also challenging to use the Demon-Devouring Arts continuously. The Spiritual Qi that was increased by forcefully swallowing the Demon-Devouring Gu was like a mixed army, extremely chaotic.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s meridians were also slightly damaged by the chaotic Spiritual Qi. Since it came from different people, the different types started to clash against each other in his body.


    What¡¯s more, it was the first time that the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body felt a little bloated and stopped absorbing on its own accord.


    Zhou Feng himself was feeling extremely uncomfortable as well. After all, he had swallowed so many Demon-Devouring Gus in one night.


    Even if the Demon-Devouring Gu was magical, it still had a limit..

 Chapter 57 - Discovering a New Continent

    ¡°As expected, I was naive!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brows were tightly knitted as he tried his best to circulate the Demon-Devouring Technique in an attempt to calm down the Spiritual Qi in his body.


    Actually, he had been wondering whether he could use the Demon-Devouring Gu to forcefully break through to the Soul Altar realm in one go. Unfortunately, his physical body could not take it anymore after devouring a few people.


    The idea of forcefully breaking through did not seem to work. Such a huge influx of erratic Spiritual Qi could not fuse at all.


    Other than the somewhat chaotic Spiritual Qi, the Blood Qi in his entire body had also started to show signs of a backlash. His skin had turned red while his body constantly emitted large amounts of heat.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Gu! What are you doing!? Hurry up and work! Then reverse-feed it!¡±


    Zhou Feng could not help but start talking to the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    Normally, it was like a vampire, but it was playing dead now that he needed it.


    This might be the only Demon-Devouring Gu that was being urged like this. After all, no one on Bitter Bamboo Peak had been as bold as Zhou Feng prior to this.


    Although they did not care about the thoughts of others or the consequences, they would not dare to eat just anyone, not even their Eldest Senior Brother, Wang Ming.


    This was because the lower one¡¯s cultivation level was, the more chaotic their Spiritual Qi would be.


    To absorb such low-quality Spiritual Qi into one¡¯s body was like looking for trouble on his own. This was also why Wang Ming had not attacked Zhou Feng from the start.


    Instead, he had provided all kinds of resources to raise Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation level and waited for him to fatten up before taking action.


    The best would be to devour a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator, preparing to create a Soul Altar.


    Since a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator was preparing to create a Soul Altar, it meant that the spiritual power in their body was already extremely pure.


    At that time, even if there were side effects, they would not affect them that much.


    Someone like Zhou Feng, who did not reject anyone, would only end up dead in the end.


    Still, this was already the best method that Zhou Feng had thought of in order to quickly increase his strength. Other than Demon-Devouring Gu, there was no other faster method.


    Compared to before, the Spiritual Qi in his body had doubled. Not mentioning anything else, just this amount was already larger.


    The demonic avatar was also extremely solid now.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body seemed to have heard his words as it immediately began to absorb the chaotic Spiritual Qi.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    After the Demon-Devouring Gu absorbed a large amount of chaotic Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi, Zhou Feng felt his body become much more relaxed.


    He could now find a new target.


    In any case, there wasn¡¯t a single normal person on Bitter Bamboo Peak, so they should let him end them now!


    Thus, Zhou Feng continued with his hunting plan.


    He devoured more than a dozen Bitter Bamboo disciples in one night!


    These disciples were all below the Qi Condensation realm, and the rest were basically all in the Qi Condensation realm.


    Seeing that the sky was about to brighten, Zhou Feng stopped his operation. There were still two days left, which should be enough.


    The sun slowly rose, and the sunlight slowly shone on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    However, this time, Bitter Bamboo Peak seemed particularly desolate.


    There were no traces of the usually active people on the peak. The people who came out of their rooms felt a little strange.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Where are my nutrients? Why didn¡¯t they come out today?¡¯


    ¡®What exactly happened last night?¡¯


    ¡®Why do I have a bad feeling¡­¡¯


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Countless questions surfaced in the minds of the remaining Bitter Bamboo disciples.


    Still, none of them opened their mouths to ask those questions. On the contrary, they looked at each other warily.


    They had no idea what had happened last night.


    Perhaps they could never imagine there was such a madman among them that planned to wipe out the entire Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Other than the Eldest Senior Brother who had entered into seclusion somewhere, Zhou Feng¡¯s plan was indeed to kill everyone.


    As for the consequences? Well, he couldn¡¯t care less.


    With the arrival of a new day, the Tri-Gu Sect continued to operate as usual.


    No one paid attention to Bitter Bamboo Peak because it was a place where a group of madmen lived in many sect disciples¡¯ eyes.


    There was no need to go there at all.


    Bitter Bamboo Peak itself had no management staff, no deacons, or teachers. There was only a group of mad disciples who were affected by their appetites.


    No one cared about that place, so the sect was unaware of what had taken place there the previous night.


    But now, rumors began to spread within the inner sect about Zhou Feng¡¯s deeds. After all, he could be considered to have ruthlessly shown his face in the previous martial arts competition.


    Zhou Feng did not care about the noise in the outside world.


    At present, he was fully focused on using the Demon-Devouring Technique as his Demon-Devouring Gu had started its reverse-feeding!


    A stream of pure Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi started to course through his body from his heart. The pure Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi clashed with the Spiritual Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body during the reverse-feeding process.


    One side was extremely pure, while the other side was extremely mixed.


    Both sides were his Spiritual Qi, and they started to dry up.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng¡¯s body suffered because of this power struggle.


    Soon, traces of blood flowed out of his mouth and nose.


    ¡°Pu!¡±


    He then spat out a mouthful of blood. This was the outcome of the collision between the two types of Blood Qi.


    Zhou Feng never expected he would encounter such a wild situation after the Demon-Devouring Gu reverse-fed him.


    The only fortunate thing was that his Self-Healing Constitution was also triggered when he was injured.


    Now, his body was slowly recovering from the minor injuries.


    ¡°Old Skin was triggered as well!?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little confused. The injuries caused by the clash of Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi seemed to have triggered Old Skin after he recovered.


    In fact, he had long thought about Old Skin¡¯s passivity.


    The description was that every time he was injured, his defense would be increased by 1 point after he recovered.


    Previously, Zhou Feng¡¯s situation had not been too good.


    If he were to get injured rashly, he might lose his self-healing ability and even lose his life.


    Otherwise, he would have planned to continuously injure himself to recover his injuries. By using this passive skill, his defense would continue to increase.


    Unfortunately, he had forgotten about this matter because the new passive skills continued attracting his attention. He only recalled this passive skill when he felt that his body¡¯s endurance seemed to have become a little stronger.


    ¡°It seems to have really been triggered!¡±


    Zhou Feng tested it again.


    Old Skin seemed to have really been triggered.


    At that moment, it was as if he had discovered a new world. Then, a trace of madness flashed across his face.


    He did not try hard to control the conflict in his body. Instead, he grabbed a handful of healing pills he had found in Senior Brother Sun¡¯s storage bag.


    Some were used to treat external and internal injuries, while others were for detoxification. Everything was available.


    Zhou Feng swallowed all the pills in one go. To use an idiom, it was akin to swallowing a whole jujube in order to speed up the healing of the injury.


    He had to keep Old Skin active. If he could constantly refresh the passive skill, it may solve the problem of the internal conflict. At the same time, it could make his physical body more solid..

 Chapter 58 - Smooth Sailing

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After Zhou Feng discovered that the conflict in his body could repeatedly trigger Old Skin, he crazily harmed himself and forcibly operated the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    He wanted to fuse all the chaotic Qi within him.


    The result of doing so was naturally that his meridians were damaged, his body was riddled with holes, and countless injuries appeared.


    When the damage was almost enough, he began to heal his injuries.


    He used the passive Self-Healing Constitution and some pills to assist him. He allowed his injuries to recover slowly, thus triggering the passive Old Skin.


    ¡°The recovery speed is still not fast enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng was somewhat dissatisfied with the recovery speed of his injuries.


    The passive support of the Self-Healing Constitution, coupled with the Demon-Devouring Technique itself, could speed up the recovery of his injuries.


    Although his self-healing speed was already very fast, he was still not satisfied as he had found that this self-torturing method could really alleviate the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effects.


    This was because after the Self-Healing Constitution was triggered, it would actually continue to consume the Blood Qi in the body.


    That¡¯s right! The Self-Healing Constitution was not without consumption.


    It was just that it usually consumed a small amount of Blood Qi, and Zhou Feng had not noticed it at all.


    Coincidentally, chaotic Blood Qi was not something he was lacking at the moment.


    His Blood Qi was too mixed, and it had become a burden.


    The passive Self-Healing Constitution could use up the surplus Blood Qi. At the same time, the several types of Spiritual Qi in his body began to fuse together after several clashes.


    Surprisingly, all of this was developing in a positive direction!


    ¡°I need a new passive skill!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face gradually turned crazy as he took out all the Spirit Stones and absorbed their spiritual energy without caring about his body.


    Since he wanted to go crazy, he had to go crazy to the end!


    His previous actions had been too conservative.


    That¡¯s right! He thought that his previous actions were too conservative.


    Bitter Bamboo Peak was a very unusual place, yet Zhou Feng had been acting too normal. There was actually a normal person among a group of lunatics?


    Normally, it would be fine if no one paid attention to it.


    But after the martial arts competition, countless pairs of eyes were staring at him from behind. There were even many people who started to pay attention to him.


    Under such circumstances, notions such as enduring humiliation, bearing the weight of the world, living and developing peacefully were far too naive.


    Zhou Feng should have been wilder and relied on the skill panel to obtain more passive skills.


    Perhaps, if others could trace his cultivation and his techniques, they could infer something from it. However, the passive skills obtained from the skill panel were something that no one could ever imagine.


    No one would know that Zhou Feng could also obtain passive skills, nor that there was a plethora of them.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s body forcefully absorbed the spiritual energy, cracks formed throughout his flesh. This hair-raising spectacle was enough to make many people gasp.


    In contrast, the skill panel¡¯s progress bar kept rising.


    ¡°Enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng noticed that the progress bar was full, so he immediately stopped absorbing spiritual energy.


    He could draw a new passive skill now!


    ¡°Drawing!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    He soon obtained a new passive skill.


    Unyielding Heart: Even if the mission is as thin as paper, you should have an unyielding heart. The more serious your injury is, the better the healing effect will be.


    ¡°This passive¡­ It¡¯s useful!¡±


    After seeing this passive skill, a trace of a smile appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    This passive was actually very useful, especially for his current situation.


    His luck was a little too good!


    It was precisely the passive skill he needed¡ªthe more severe the injury, the better the healing effect.


    Wasn¡¯t this a perfect match with his Self-Healing Constitution?


    As expected, when he thought of this¡­ the injuries on his body healed at speed visible to the naked eye.


    Unfortunately, his recovery speed slowed down after his injuries recovered a little.


    ¡°Very good!¡±


    Upon feeling that his injuries had recovered a little, Zhou Feng forcefully integrated the Spiritual Qi into his body.


    The wound that had just recovered opened up once again. Although the intense pain made his forehead slightly sweaty and his lips somewhat pale, it didn¡¯t matter!


    The Unyielding Heart¡¯s effect was brought to its limit again while Old Skin was also triggered, and the strength of his physical body slightly increased.


    Two days were enough!


    Just like that, Zhou Feng kept torturing himself during the day and began to hunt his Senior Brothers and Sisters on Bitter Bamboo Peak at night.


    He was still a little restrained in the beginning, but from the third day onward, Zhou Feng was a little unscrupulous.


    ¡°Madman! Do you know what you are doing?¡± Zhou Tong gathered all the Spiritual Qi in his body and tried hard to maintain the Demon-Devouring Armor on his body, his face full of fear.


    The one standing in front of him was none other than Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    The expressionless Zhou Feng did not respond. He only used his actions to express himself.


    A demonic avatar appeared behind him, and a large number of tentacles broke through the air.


    ¡°Damn it! Crazy! Really crazy! Such a madman actually appeared on Bitter Bamboo Peak!¡±


    Zhou Tong, who was considered a madman in the eyes of others, was actually calling another person a madman at this moment.


    Zhou Feng had actually brazenly attacked the other disciples on Bitter Bamboo Peak. What¡¯s worse, his strength was overwhelming!


    ¡®This Zhou Feng joined Bitter Bamboo Peak not long ago! Why! Why is it like this!?¡¯


    Zhou Tong could not understand at all why Zhou Feng would suddenly become so strong.


    Not only was he at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, but his physical body was also strong.


    Previously, he had gone through great difficulty breaking the Demon-Devouring Armor on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, but that physical body was even stronger than the Demon-Devouring Armor.


    This was a bit hopeless.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Tong was hysterical at the end. His Spiritual Qi condensed into a dagger, which he wielded as he rushed toward Zhou Feng. The latter had no intention of dodging, so the attacker¡¯s body collided with Zhou Feng like a truck.


    After being reinforced by Old Skin, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was terrifying.


    Zhou Tong was momentarily stunned before a few tentacles pierced through his body and dug out his Demon-Devouring Gu.


    ¡°Almost all of them have been exterminated!¡±


    After dealing with Zhou Tong, there was not a single disciple left on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    He had eliminated all the Bitter Bamboo disciples step by step during these three days.


    Of course, this was only the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s front mountain. As for the back mountain, he had never set foot there.


    After all, the back of the mountain was the Grand Elder¡¯s designated area for seclusion. None of the Bitter Bamboo disciples dared to set foot to the back of the mountain.


    Only when they received the order would the Bitter Bamboo disciples dare to enter the back of the mountain.


    ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect it to be so smooth!¡±


    To be honest, Zhou Feng really didn¡¯t expect the plan to be carried out so smoothly.


    No one had meddled in other people¡¯s business throughout the whole process, and he himself hadn¡¯t been besieged at all.


    It would always be a one-vs-one confrontation, killing them one by one, even if someone had already noticed something was wrong.


    No one had reacted whatsoever, just watching numbly until death knocked on their door¡­

 Chapter 59 - Small Punishment

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°There¡¯s no reaction at all?¡±


    Zhou Feng was standing under the moonlight, feeling the Spiritual Qi gushing out of his body.


    He had exterminated all the Bitter Bamboo disciples on the front mountain in the past three days.


    He was the only one left in the front mountain now, yet no one had come to question him.


    No one in the sect had noticed? Even the Grand Elder, who had been in seclusion, did not react.


    This scene made Zhou Feng start to think. This was a little illogical. He really did not understand the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s internal management.


    However, this was also good. Such a crude management method gave him a lot of room for development.


    This also confirmed some of his previous suspicions.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was internally split. Basically, each faction had its own management style, and none of the mountain peaks had a deep connection with each other.


    Adding on the fact that he had already understood the small cliques, it seemed that the Tri-Gu Sect was not a sect at all. It was more like a loose alliance that a powerful entity had forcefully fathered.


    ¡°I wonder if my current strength is enough to fight against Soul Altar cultivators¡­¡±


    Tomorrow was the day to carry out the sect mission, yet Zhou Feng did not clearly understand his own strength.


    This was because after swallowing the entire Bitter Bamboo Peak, his Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi were extremely rich.


    The Blood Qi was directly condensed like paste, and when it was lightly circulated, it emitted waves of booming sounds.


    His Spiritual Qi was also terrifying!


    In any case, when Zhou Feng used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art, a second demonic avatar could already be condensed behind his back.


    Not to mention that his physical body had reached a horrifying level after triggering Old Skin countless times.


    At present, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need the Demon-Devouring Armor to take on a spirit energy attack head-on. He wouldn¡¯t even be the slightest bit shaken.


    It could be said that if he were to be compared to a normal 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator, his current battle prowess had completely exceeded the standard.


    Still, it was somewhat uncertain when facing a Soul Altar opponent. After all, he had never fought against a Soul Altar opponent before.


    ¡­


    The sun was high up in the sky.


    Zhou Feng had arrived at the agreed-upon main peak long ago.


    At the same time, a group of people had been stationed there long ago. It seemed that they had arrived very early.


    ¡°Is everyone here?¡±


    The new party arrived a little late, so Zhou Feng received the attention of everyone present, especially from the person sitting cross-legged on a palanquin.


    ¡°He has some strength! No wonder he is so arrogant! Unfortunately¡­¡±


    Jiang Jinge slowly closed his eyes after sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s massive reserves of Spiritual Qi. He then took out a Heart-Linking Gu and slightly circulated his Spiritual Qi.


    In an instant, Zhou Feng felt as if his heart was being gnawed by something.


    That kind of pain made him unable to stand steadily.


    It turned out that the Heart-Linking Gu in Jiang Jing¡¯s hand and the Heart-Linking Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body were a pair.


    When the Heart-Linking Gu in Jiang Jing¡¯s hand was tormented, the one on Zhou Feng¡¯s side also had a reaction.


    The intense pain made him unable to help but cover his chest. At the same time, he lowered his head.


    ¡°This is just a small punishment! Pack your things and get ready to leave!¡±


    Jiang Jing quickly stopped what he was doing and let Zhou Feng follow behind the team.


    It turned out that Jiang Jing was the leader of this mine-robbing mission. Everyone else, including Zhou Feng, was just support.


    Therefore, Jiang Jing had the Heart-Linking Gus of everyone in the team.


    He wanted to be able to control this group of people. The outside world was not like a sect.


    Although Jiang Jing was a Soul Altar cultivator, this group of people would probably harbor evil thoughts without the Heart-Linking Gu as a control method.


    After all, the inner sect was extremely cruel in itself, and there were no strong restraining methods.


    Their mentality was simple: Could a single powerful person kill them all in one go if they simultaneously tried to escape?


    Those who could become inner disciples were basically not good people. Not to mention those who could cultivate to the Qi Condensation realm were vicious people.


    Jiang Jing had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm, and he urgently needed to forge a soul artifact and place it on the Soul Altar for nurturing.


    That was why he had taken the risk to accept this sect mission. It could be considered to be a show of strength for everyone.


    Zhou Feng just happened to become a demonstration target, serving as the chicken that was killed to warn the monkeys.


    As expected, the group instantly tensed up upon witnessing Zhou Feng¡¯s predicament.


    ¡°Is this the Soul Altar realm? This Heart-Linking Gu doesn¡¯t seem to be as powerful as I imagined!¡±


    Zhou Feng lowered his head and slowly walked to the back of the team.


    If someone saw his face now, they would definitely reveal a shocked expression.


    Zhou Feng did not have any expression of pain on his face. On the contrary, he was expressionless.


    Perhaps it was because he constantly triggered Old Skin, and now his physical body was powerful.


    The Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s bite did not hurt as expected. If it was just this level, he could still endure it.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s earlier reactions were just an act in order to reduce his presence. Although he had acted like a madman on Bitter Bamboo Peak, it did not mean that he did not have a brain.


    His main goal was naturally to complete the sect mission.


    As long as he completed this sect mission, he would be able to obtain the Spirit Nurturing Pill and use this to break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    This was the goal that he needed to complete now.


    Therefore, under normal circumstances, he didn¡¯t need to think about anything else, nor did he need to throw a tantrum. It would be best if everything went smoothly for this sect mission.


    ¡°Set off!¡±


    Seeing that everyone had arrived, Jiang Jing immediately urged them to set off.


    The mine was very far away, so they would probably waste quite a bit of time If they didn¡¯t set off as soon as possible. After all, they could only travel during the day. Not even seasoned cultivators would dare to casually walk around at night.


    The Southern Border¡¯s nights were terrifying!


    Zhou Feng followed the team slowly down Mount Gu. During this process, he was at the end of the team.


    At the same time, he pricked up his ears and gathered information through the conversations of the others.


    First of all, it was the composition of this team.


    The leader was Jiang Jing, a Soul Altar cultivator. The others were basically in the Qi Condensation realm, and almost all of them were 8th or 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivators.


    There wasn¡¯t even a single person below the 8th Level of Qi Condensation realm.


    These people came from different peaks, and all of them had one thing in common¡ªthey didn¡¯t seem to have any backers.


    It was like a group of cannon fodder that had been gathered together.


    Zhou Feng naturally paid the most attention to Jiang Jing because he was the only Soul Altar expert in the group, and he also had the Heart-Linking Gu.


    Unfortunately, the others would ignore Jiang Jing when they talked and would not talk about anything related to Jiang Jing.


    ¡°Do you know where we are going this time?¡±


    ¡°I know! I heard it¡¯s a small mine near the Myriad Worm Cave!¡±


    ¡°Myriad Worm Cave? Is it a place with many mines? I heard there are many forces stationed there!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Many small factions are searching for gold there besides our Tri-Gu Sect, the White Bone Temple, and the Penta-Ghost Sect!¡±


    ¡°Those small factions discovered the mining caves that we are stationed in this time!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As the group left the mountain range, many people relaxed and began to discuss softly..

 Chapter 60 - Are You Deaf?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After Zhou Feng left the Tri-Gu Sect, Zhao Wu also began to exert his strength.


    After realizing that he could not deal with Zhou Feng, Zhao Wu chose another path, indirectly killing Zhou Feng.


    First, he gave an example of Zhou Feng¡¯s advancement process from the Gu Refinement Cave to the inner sect.


    A mortal who had never cultivated before had actually broken through to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation in such a short period.


    Moreover, it was under the circumstances of joining Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    This kind of experience was indeed a little strange, and it also attracted the attention of many people.


    When Zhou Feng was getting more and more attention, Zhao Wu put the second stage of his scheme in action.


    He ¡®divulged¡¯ that Zhou Feng had a spiritual artifact, one that could assist in cultivation to boot.


    Thanks to the foreshadowing part of the scheme, this rumor had some credibility. This even attracted the attention of a few geniuses in the inner sect.


    A spiritual artifact that could assist in cultivation was something worthy of verification, even if there was a high possibility that it was not true.


    In any case, it was just to verify it. What if it was true?


    This rumor even attracted some Soul Altar cultivators.


    Then, some people couldn¡¯t help but visit Bitter Bamboo Peak to look for Zhou Feng.


    Then¡­


    Not a single living person could be found on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Shockingly, there was a huge grave on the mountainside where all the Bitter Bamboo disciples were buried!


    As for Zhou Feng¡¯s whereabouts, no one knew.


    ¡°All the Bitter Bamboo disciples have been killed!? Zhou Feng killed them!?¡±


    ¡°No way!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s true! The grave on Bitter Bamboo Peak was dug up!¡±


    ¡°Then¡­ What about the Grand Elder? Does the Grand Elder not care about what happened on Bitter Bamboo Peak?¡±


    ¡°I heard that the Grand Elder is not on Bitter Bamboo Peak now! Didn¡¯t the sect have a conflict with the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect?¡±


    ¡°The Grand Elder seems to have gone to guard an important place!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    One person had slaughtered the disciples of an entire peak. This kind of thing had never happened in the Tri-Gu Sect!


    Even if it was the Bitter Bamboo Peak, there were still quite a number of people!


    How had Zhou Feng accomplished it? Could it be that Zhou Feng really had a spiritual artifact?


    When Old Niu learned this, his face was full of astonishment.


    ¡°This¡­ Zhou Feng¡­¡±


    It wasn¡¯t that Old Niu thought that Zhou Feng possessed a spiritual artifact.


    It was fine if the others didn¡¯t know the value of a spiritual artifact, but Old Niu was well aware of how rare a spiritual artifact was.


    To be able to possess a top-grade spiritual artifact was already good luck for the vast majority of people.


    A kid who wasn¡¯t even at the Soul Altar realm had a spiritual artifact?


    This was absolutely impossible!


    Old Niu was astonished that Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude was actually so monstrous. This seemed to be a seedling of the Soul Altar realm.


    Wouldn¡¯t that be his end if the Grand Elder were to find out?


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng had killed all the Bitter Bamboo disciples.


    Now, only Zhou Feng was left on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    ¡°The Grand Elder shouldn¡¯t eat me in one bite, right!?¡±


    Old Niu¡¯s forehead was full of cold sweat.


    Old Niu¡¯s legs became a little soft when he thought of the Grand Elder¡¯s impressive battle achievements.


    These were all the leeks that the Grand Elder had planted. Now that they were all dead, what should he do? What should he do!?


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng was unaware of what had happened in the sect.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s team slowly left the mountain range, it was also the first time he felt the cruelty of this area.


    A poisonous bug would appear every few steps while some demon beasts would be spying from behind.


    Moreover, the area they were treading through didn¡¯t have any roads. There were all kinds of thorny bushes and vines, and they had to cut through the thorny bushes to move forward.


    Some people had used up too much spiritual power in a short while.


    This was because they needed to constantly use spiritual power to protect their bodies in order to stop those poisonous bugs¡¯ attacks.


    Of course, these poisonous insects were not worth mentioning to Zhou Feng at all.


    On the one hand, he possessed Poison Immunity that nullified toxins and was not afraid of them at all.


    On the other hand, his body was extremely tough, and these poisonous insects could not bite through his skin at all.


    ¡°Stop! Rest for a while!¡±


    Seeing that everyone was not in good condition, Jiang Jing immediately called for the entire team to stop.


    There was no rush to travel through this Southern Border area. They had to constantly ensure their combat strength.


    Other than the harsh environment, the most important thing was that some people were spying on them.


    There were plenty of vagabond cultivators, who were all broke, and attacking some sect disciples in the wild was not a problem at all.


    Even if this area was still under the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s jurisdiction, those vagabond cultivators would still attack.


    The law of the jungle was enforced in this area.


    Perhaps it was because of the environment that the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s methods of selecting disciples were so cruel.


    ¡°You and you two! Come and feed my little precious!¡±


    After the team stopped, Jiang Jing took out a jar of worms and then pointed at Zhou Feng and two others.


    ¡®Feed his little precious?¡¯ A question mark appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    Just now, he was still thinking about the chances of escaping.


    They had already left the Tri-Gu Sect, but they were still within the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s territory.


    One of the people that was called walked over before Zhou Feng could make a move.


    ¡°Senior Brother Jiang!¡± Yu Ming looked at Jiang Jing with a fawning expression. At the same time, he rolled up his sleeves and revealed his arm.


    ¡°Hmm.¡± Jiang Jing did not even move his lips as he gently opened the jar.


    The moment he opened it, a mosquito-like Gu flew out.


    The sound of flapping wings was like a swarm of bees, buzzing and piercing to the ears.


    The Blood Mosquito Gu¡¯s proboscis pierced into Yu Ming¡¯s arm, and it swiftly sucked away a large amount of Blood Qi. At the same time, Yu Ming¡¯s appearance became skinny at speed visible to the naked eye.


    Yu Ming, who had been full of blood and flesh just a moment ago, turned into a skeleton in the blink of an eye.


    This scene made the others shrink their heads, but Yu Ming¡¯s face still showed a fawning expression.


    Yu Ming was clearly a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator, and his Blood Qi was also extremely rich. How had he become such a lackey?


    ¡°Hmm? Are you deaf? Come here!¡±


    Jiang Jing didn¡¯t care at all about Yu Ming¡¯s fawning. Instead, he focused on Zhou Feng, who was standing in a daze, and his face sank slightly.


    He recognized Zhou Feng. ¡®Isn¡¯t he the person I made an example of?¡¯


    To be honest, Jiang Jing still had some impression of Zhou Feng. After all, among the 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivators, Zhou Feng¡¯s Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi were extremely dense.


    A person with such dense Blood Qi was just enough to feed the Blood Mosquito Gu.


    Jiang Jing had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm, and he was at the point where he was broke. Although his realm had increased, he didn¡¯t have the battle strength to match it.


    Only this Blood Mosquito Gu possessed Soul Altar battle strength, so Jiang Jing had invested a large amount of effort into this Blood Mosquito Gu.


    In Jiang Jing¡¯s eyes, it was an honor for a person to be able to contribute their Blood Qi to his Blood Mosquito Gu.


    One had to know that he had already broken through to the Soul Altar realm, and he was even a true disciple of the sect.


    Now, someone was actually not willing to offer his Blood Qi for him?


    When Jiang Jing spoke to Zhou Feng, his chin was slightly raised. After all, true disciples that had broken through to the Soul Altar realm were 1 in 100, so there was no need to lower their heads to look at mere cannon fodder.


    Not to mention, these people¡¯s Heart-Linking Gus were all in his hands.


    Whether one lived or died was entirely up to Jiang Jing to decide!

 Chapter 61 - Dao Protector

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®How troublesome!¡¯ Zhou Feng clenched his right fist slowly.


    This kind of situation was what he hated the most.


    It would be the best-case scenario if nothing unexpected happened before heading to the mission location.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to have any conflict with anyone, yet trouble kept finding him.


    He thought of several possibilities in his heart and then slowly walked to Jiang Jing¡¯s side.


    In the meantime, the others were also watching Zhou Feng¡¯s every move.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Is he trying to resist?¡±


    ¡°Doesn¡¯t he know that Senior Brother Jiang is a core disciple?¡±


    ¡°Core disciples are different from inner disciples like us. They all answer to the sect!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Jiang Jing looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s calm face, and a rare trace of interest rose in him. It was because there were not many people like Zhou Feng who still had thoughts of resisting in the inner sect.


    As someone who had also climbed out of the inner sect, Jiang Jing was well aware that the people in the inner sect were a bunch of old foxes.


    In the face of an irresistible situation, pretending to give in was the soundest course of action.


    Still, he knew that these people definitely wished for his death.


    Take Yu ¦¬ing, for example. Although he had been bowing, kowtowing, and acting very humble, no different than a lackey, he was probably cursing him in his heart.


    But so what? Even though Yu Ming was cursing him in his heart, he was still respectful to him.


    On the contrary, it was rare to see someone like Zhou Feng, who looked a little rash.


    ¡°You¡¯ve joined the sect for quite a short time, haven¡¯t you?¡±


    Jiang Jing ordered the ¦¢lood ¦¬osquito Gu return into the jar without letting it absorb Zhou Feng¡¯s blood.


    Zhou Feng did not know what Jiang Jing wanted to do, so he only gave a simple answer, ¡°Yes¡­¡±


    Jiang Jing looked as if he had already guessed it. At the same time, he pointed at Yu ¦¬ing, who was beside him. ¡°As expected! As long as you stay in a place like the inner sect for a long period, you will become like him, acting like a dog when you face me!¡±


    The intention of insulting Yu ¦¬ing through his words was very obvious. Even so, Yu ¦¬ing continued smiling awkwardly.


    However, there was a trace of uncontrollable resentment in the depths of his eyes.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how to reply upon hearing that. He only responded with silence.


    Would he become like a quail after staying in the inner sect for a long period?


    He thought about it and felt that he wouldn¡¯t be like this. After all, he had been leading a rather comfortable life in the inner sect all this time. No one controlled or restrained him on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Jiang Jing didn¡¯t beat around the bush too much and made his purpose known. ¡°Now, I¡¯m giving you a chance to become my Dao Protector!¡±


    It turned out that he wanted Zhou Feng to become his Dao Protector.


    The so-called Dao Protector was actually a high-level bodyguard and butler, ensuring that he could advance safely in the path of cultivation.


    The sects and clans usually prepared Dao Protectors for the people they focused on cultivating.


    For example, the direct descendants of the Sect Leader usually had Dao Protectors.


    Apart from that, core disciples could also train Dao Protectors.


    The path of cultivation might not be obvious at the beginning, but there were all kinds of needs at the end.


    Refining artifacts, refining pills, array formations, and so on all required some assistance.


    That¡¯s right! In addition to the Dao Protectors responsible for ensuring safety, there were also other auxiliary Dao Protectors.


    These Dao Protectors and their masters were on the same rope. They were willing to do anything for their masters.


    For example, there were some strange medicinal pills that could only be refined once in a person¡¯s lifetime.


    Moreover, they would have irreversible side effects.


    Other Pill Masters would naturally not help you refine these medicinal pills. At that time, the Dao Protectors would have to play their role.


    It was said that the direct descendants of the ancient Eastern Land clans would have hundreds of Dao Protectors the moment they were born.


    These Dao Protectors would protect these noble clans from the start of their cultivation, and they would sacrifice everything in order to achieve their master¡¯s Dao.


    Of course, Dao Protectors could not be raised by just anyone.


    Dao Protectors may be willing to give up everything for their masters, but it was not unconditional.


    To give the simplest example, the main family must provide all the resources the Dao Protectors needed, such as food and cultivation.


    This was similar to raising death warriors. The expenditure was extremely high, so having a Dao Protector was already very impressive.


    Only those ancient clans had the resources to raise so many Dao Protectors.


    Now, Jiang Jing wanted Zhou Feng to become his Dao Protector.


    Of course, it was only on the surface. It wasn¡¯t easy to become a Dao Protector. There was a complicated ritual involved.


    ¡°He just joined the sect not long ago, so he should still have a lot of pride! He doesn¡¯t even know a lot of things!¡±


    ¡°People like him are the easiest to fool!¡±


    Jiang Jing was actually doing it on a whim. He had no intention of letting Zhou Feng become his Dao Protector. He couldn¡¯t afford to raise a real Dao Protector.


    However, it shouldn¡¯t be a big problem to fool an idiot into giving his all for him.


    This was because Jiang Jing had met a few people with similar personalities as Zhou Feng. They looked cold on the surface, but they were very principled in their hearts. If others respected them, they would return the favor.


    This kind of hothead was very easy to fool.


    Coincidentally, his new soul artifact needed a person at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation to carry out the Life Sacrifice.


    And during Life Sacrifice, the person who carried it out had to be willing.


    Although Jiang Jing hadn¡¯t even gathered the materials to forge the soul artifact, the person who carried out the Life Sacrifice could be found in advance.


    Zhou Feng was obviously the first person Jiang Jing found.


    Perhaps some people would say that one look was enough to see through Zhou Feng¡¯s personality. However, what if Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t what Jiang Jing thought he was?


    Well, even if Zhou Feng was different from his expectation, it didn¡¯t matter. It was not like Jiang Jing was going to suffer any losses.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng¡¯s Heart-Linking Gu was in his hands.


    If he was not satisfied, he could crush it with one hand.


    But what if Zhou Feng was really that kind of rash person who was easy to fool?


    Wouldn¡¯t that be a huge profit?


    When comparing the profit and the risk, Jiang Jing would not be on the losing end.


    It was with this mentality that Jiang Jing seemed to be extremely relaxed. When he started to lie, he could do so easily.


    Zhou Feng obviously didn¡¯t know what a Dao Protector meant, so he directly asked his own question, ¡°Dao Protector?¡±


    On the other hand, Yu ¦¬ing revealed a trace of jealousy upon hearing the words ¡®Dao Protector¡¯.


    ¡®Dao Protector!? You!¡¯


    His face seemed to be asking, ¡°WHY?¡±


    Jiang Jing had randomly called him and Zhou Feng, and they were both prepared to feed the ¦¢lood ¦¬osquito Gu.


    But why did he have to be sucked half to death, but Zhou Feng could become Jiang Jing¡¯s Dao Protector?


    This¡­ This was too unfair!


    ¡®Was it because I didn¡¯t lick hard enough!? I was so humble from the beginning to the end! That Zhou Feng didn¡¯t seem to have done anything!¡¯


    Yu ¦¬ing¡¯s face was a little twisted. He really couldn¡¯t understand.


    At that moment, Jiang Jing lost his interest again. He gave a casual order and told everyone to continue on their journey.


    ¡°Let this person explain it to you! Give me a reply tonight!¡±


    ¡°Everyone, continue on your journey!¡±


    Yu ¦¬ing, who had almost been sucked dry by the ¦¢lood ¦¬osquito Gu, turned green when he heard this..

 Chapter 62 - Vital Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®That is a Dao Protector! Why¡­¡¯


    Yu Ming clearly understood the treatment of becoming a Dao Protector.


    The jealousy on his face was about to spill out, but Yu Ming used extreme willpower to stop it from showing.


    After suppressing the jealousy, he staggered to Zhou Feng¡¯s side.


    His face had already revealed a fawning expression.


    The other people around him also showed a hint of respect at the right time.


    Jiang Jing¡¯s one sentence had caused such a change.


    ¡®It¡¯s really exaggerated¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t express any thoughts about Yu Ming¡¯s fawning look. He only wanted to understand what a Dao Protector was.


    He had a feeling that Jiang Jing harbored ill intentions toward him, and his Battle Instinct had been triggered at that moment.


    Zhou Feng and the others were still advancing slowly.


    It was not until the sun was about to set that they stopped.


    During this period, Zhou Feng had gotten a rough understanding of Dao Protectors.


    ¡®As expected, he has other motives!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was certain that Jiang Jing definitely harbored ill intentions as he listened to Yu Ming bragging about the benefits of being a Dao Protector.


    Zhou Feng was just an inner disciple, and he did not have any special skills.


    What right did he have to be a Dao Protector? Yet, this Soul Altar cultivator was trying to rope him in.


    If it were a normal person, they wouldn¡¯t be able to reject such a rope!


    Take Yu Ming, for example. Even though his vitality was greatly damaged, he still looked like a lackey.


    Was the Soul Altar realm really so terrifying?


    Even if there was the Heart-Linking Gu, it wouldn¡¯t be so lowly!


    At this time, Zhou Feng glanced at Jiang Jing, who was sitting in the distance.


    ¡®Eh? That¡¯s¡­¡¯


    Jiang Jing took out a few small flags with complicated runes drawn on them, and Jiang Jing tossed them casually. They formed a small formation immediately, and an unknown aura covered the surroundings.


    It was as if he could see that Jiang Jing had some doubts in his heart.


    Yu Ming, who was by his side, was astute enough to explain to him. ¡°That¡¯s a concealment formation flag! Only Soul Altar cultivators can use it!¡±


    What Jiang Jing had used was a set of small formation flags that could temporarily set up a formation.


    However, if they wanted to use formation flags, they had to be Soul Altar cultivators.


    That was because only Soul Altar cultivators could harness the power of their souls to control a formation flag.


    And these concealment formation flags were also an important guarantee that they could spend the night in the wilderness.


    As long as the formation flags were set up, any sound or smell in their territory area would be concealed.


    Only in this way could they avoid all kinds of demonic beasts at night.


    Different from the fertile lands in Eastern Land, this place in Southern Border was not so much the territory of humans.


    It was more like the territory of demonic beasts. To be honest, humans were only a minority in Southern Border.


    One could easily encounter demonic beasts that were on par with Qi Condensation cultivators in the wild.


    Demonic beasts that were on par with Soul Altar cultivators were also very common. It was precisely because of this that if one did not have Soul Altar cultivation, traveling in the wild in Southern Border was a dangerous action.


    ¡°I see!¡±


    Zhou Feng nodded to indicate that he understood!


    This should be considered common sense.


    When Yu Ming saw this, he anxiously got close to Zhou Feng and started the topic. ¡°It is good to talk about this Soul Altar cultivator! Not only can he control the formation flag, but he can also nurture soul artifacts, refine Gu worms, and even cultivate true battle arts!¡±


    These words were filled with envy.


    After all, compared to the Qi Condensation realm, Soul Altar cultivators could do too many things.


    There were basically not many things that one could do at the Qi Condensation realm other than absorbing Spiritual Qi.


    The methods to increase one¡¯s strength were also very minimal.


    But if one reached the Soul Altar realm, it would be different.


    They could do many things with the power of their divine soul.


    Besides the things that Yu Ming mentioned before, basically only those at the Soul Altar realm and above could master skills such as refining pills, cultivating Qi, and taming spirit beasts.


    ¡°Moreover, after the Soul Altar realm, one can refine the Vital Gu and imprint their own brand!¡±


    Speaking up to this point, Yu Ming could not help but sigh.


    Although he was at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, the goal of breaking through to the Soul Altar realm was still too far away. It was even to the extent that he did not have a backer and was directly forced to complete such a dangerous mission.


    ¡°Vital Gu?¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t know? Vital Gu is the Gu worm in our bodies!¡±


    Yu Ming was slightly surprised that Zhou Feng did not know this.


    Nonetheless, he did not overthink and explained this to Zhou Feng.


    The Vital Gu was the Demon-Devouring Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    This Demon-Devouring Gu did not belong to Zhou Feng because he had not branded it with his soul.


    Strictly speaking, the Demon-Devouring Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was categorized as an ownerless object that was currently residing in his body.


    The Tri-Gu Sect had a spiritual artifact known as the Gu Bell. Once the Gu Bell was shaken, all the ownerless Gus would react intensely.


    Naturally, the ownerless Gu¡¯s host would be implicated.


    This was a method that the Tri-Gu Sect used to restrain their disciples.


    Moreover, the special method of branding the Vital Gu with the divine soul seal would only be taught after one broke through to the Soul Altar realm.


    Along with methods like.


    The Tri-Gu higher-ups had plenty of methods, such as the Heart-Linking Gu, that firmly controlled all the disciples in their hands.


    They were unafraid of their disciples betraying them, even if they broke through to the Soul Altar realm.


    Once one broke through to the Soul Altar realm, it meant that they would be pursuing the Gu Dao, and all the cultivation techniques behind were in the hands of the sect.


    If one wanted to move forward, they had to be obedient. Only by serving the sect could they obtain the cultivation techniques.


    Zhou Feng was currently facing such a situation¡ªthe Demon-Devouring Technique he cultivated only had the cultivation chant for reaching the Qi Condensation realm.


    There were no cultivation methods for the later stages. And because there was no one to teach and explain, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation depended entirely on his intuition.


    Whether he was cultivating correctly or not, whether or not he was wrong, he was not clear at all.


    Using four words to describe it: he was fooling around.


    Fortunately, there were no problems with his cultivation at the moment.


    The more difficult it was in the later stages of cultivation, the easier it was in the earlier stages.


    He was still able to cultivate recklessly, but there were no specific instructions at the later stages.


    If he cultivated recklessly like this, he might go mad.


    ¡®Looks like I have to find someone to guide me on my cultivation path. I cannot just rely on cultivating recklessly!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was very clear on what he had done to reach his current level.


    He relied on more than a dozen passive skills, but this cultivation path couldn¡¯t completely rely on passive skills.


    He also needed formal teaching and a legacy.


    But when Zhou Feng thought of Bitter Bamboo Peak, he felt a headache.


    ¡®The First Elder should also take in disciples, right?¡¯


    Otherwise, he could only gather Spirit Stones and find someone to teach him.


    Yu Ming secretly observed Zhou Feng while the latter was deep in thought.


    ¡®What¡¯s so special about this person? Why did Jiang Jing make him his Dao Protector!?¡¯

 Chapter 63 - BUG-Like Battle Prowess

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The group did not encounter anything because of the concealment formation, so the night passed peacefully.


    Soon, everyone packed up and set off.


    Zhou Feng had chatted a lot with Yu Ming and learned many things during the night. At least, compared to before, he was much less confused.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng had also promised Jiang Jing to become his Dao Protector.


    Unfortunately, he didn¡¯t gain anything after becoming Jiang Jing¡¯s Dao Protector.


    He had only exempted Zhou Feng from feeding the Blood Mosquito Gu. This was the only benefit.


    As for the others, they were afraid that their names would be called, and they would have to use their Blood Qi to feed Jiang Jing¡¯s Blood Mosquito Gu.


    Because everyone was at the Qi Condensation realm, they soon arrived near the Myriad Worm Cave under Jiang Jing¡¯s constant urging.


    After this period of recuperation, Yu Ming¡¯s complexion was much better. At least, he didn¡¯t look like a skeleton like before.


    Yu Ming informed Zhou Feng enthusiastically, ¡°Big Brother! Ahead is the Myriad Worm Cave! This is also the place where the sects often compete with other sects!¡±


    During this period, Yu Ming had been trying to build a good relationship with Zhou Feng, even calling him Big Brother.


    Zhou Feng did not say anything. After all, Yu Ming had explained a lot to him.


    Yu Ming was already used to Zhou Feng¡¯s silent personality.


    ¡°We should be careful of the White Bone Temple and Penta-Ghost Sect¡¯s sneak attacks!


    ¡°The White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect have been allies for a long time, hunting down our elite Tri-Gu disciples together!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Yu Ming was still talking non-stop.


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stood on end.


    ¡®Something¡¯s wrong! Something¡¯s wrong!¡¯


    His Battle Instinct was triggered! Someone was attacking them!


    Zhou Feng had the passive Battle Instinct, so his senses were extremely sharp, and no one else could react faster than him.


    Zhou Feng had already felt that something was wrong, so he immediately looked toward Jiang Jing, who was in the middle of the group.


    ¡®He¡¯s gone! When!?¡¯


    What surprised him was that Jiang Jing had disappeared without him knowing.


    There was only a vivid paper figurine left on the palanquin.


    ¡°Haha! I can finally pinch a soft persimmon!¡±


    A voice echoed from the forest before Zhou Feng could react.


    It was still daytime, yet the sky had darkened.


    A strange peal of laughter entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    At the same time, white bones emerged from the ground.


    ¡°It¡¯s the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect! Spread Out!¡±


    The Tri-Gu members were shocked by this sneak attack, but they reacted quickly.


    They did not panic.


    One could infer from the name of the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect, these two sects¡¯ cultivation methods.


    The White Bone Temple cultivated the White Bone Art, and they were most famous for controlling a white skeleton to fight.


    As for the Penta-Ghost Sect, they cultivated the Ghost-Controlling Art, which emphasized the cultivation of both humans and ghosts.


    One of these two sects wanted a human skeleton, while the other wanted a living soul. If they killed one person, the two sects could directly take what they wanted.


    Therefore, these two sects had always been united, fighting against the Tri-Gu Sect.


    At this time, Zhou Feng was being targeted by a person from the White Bone Temple.


    Huang Hong stared at Zhou Feng and let out a strange cry. ¡°Hehehe, hurry up and surrender! Your Soul Altar cultivator has already disappeared!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at his surroundings and directly rushed to the side, choosing to escape.


    Judging from the current situation, escaping should be the best way to deal with it.


    ¡°Want to escape? That¡¯s impossible!¡±


    Huang Hong controlled a white skeleton to block his way.


    This white skeleton was covered in Spiritual Qi armor and held a long knife in its hand. Its movement speed was far faster than ordinary people¡¯s.


    Huang Hong had used the bones of 49 people to refine this white skeleton.


    Moreover, these people had all been middle-aged men with strong bodies, and their bones were the strongest.


    He had directly massacred several villages in order to gather these bones.


    Now it was time to use this Tri-Gu disciple¡¯s blood as the opening act.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    The spiritual power in Zhou Feng¡¯s body exploded, and a solid demonic avatar appeared behind him. The demonic avatar then controlled countless tentacles and twisted the white skeleton in front of him.


    Seeing this scene, Huang Hong almost laughed out loud.


    Although this white skeleton of his looked fragile, it had been tempered by the White Bone Formation. In fact, it was as hard as fine iron, and there was a layer of Spiritual Qi armor on its body.


    ¡°Haha! You think¡ª¡±


    Huang Hong was stunned before he could finish his sentence.


    These tentacles had shattered the white skeleton!


    ¡°Impossible!¡±


    Huang Hong found it hard to accept as this was something he had just refined.


    Could it be that the opponent was a Soul Altar cultivator?


    Impossible! His opponent was clearly a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator, so it was impossible for him to be a Soul Altar cultivator.


    While Huang Hong was shocked, Zhou Feng expressionlessly rushed in front of him.


    Then, Huang Hong felt a suffocating chaotic wave of spiritual power.


    It was like a sesame seed compared to a watermelon when compared to his spiritual power.


    However, this spiritual power was extremely chaotic and scattered, completely unlike a person¡¯s spiritual power.


    Moreover, how could a portion of spiritual power directly ignore his protective spiritual power?


    After that, Huang Hong lost consciousness.


    The huge and chaotic spiritual power condensed into a ball and smashed onto Huang Hong¡¯s body.


    Blood, flesh, and broken bones splattered everywhere!


    Huang Hong, who had just appeared extremely arrogant, was gone in an instant!


    ¡®So weak?¡¯


    Zhou Feng also did not expect that this White Bone disciple in front of him was so weak. He was simply unable to withstand a single blow.


    One had to know that Huang Hong was also at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation realm.


    If it was just a competition of realms, both parties¡¯ realms would be the same.


    But Zhou Feng¡¯s current spiritual power was too potent.


    After swallowing all the Demon-Devouring Gus on Bitter Bamboo Peak, his Spiritual Qi reserve had reached a terrifying level.


    It exceeded more than some Soul Altar cultivators¡¯ reserves.


    At the same time, his spiritual power was also extremely chaotic, and Spiritual Qi of different attributes constantly clashed in his body.


    Zhou Feng was able to live in peace mainly because of triggering Old Skin. He had raised the strength of his physical body to a terrifying level, so he was fine.


    If Huang Hong¡¯s spiritual power was compared to a small pond, then Zhou Feng¡¯s spiritual power was simply comparable to the sea.


    The two sides were not on the same level at all. This head-on confrontation was a crushing blow.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng also had the passive Armor-Piercing Spear that directly ignored 1% of the opponent¡¯s defense.


    1% sounded like a small amount, but when combined with Zhou Feng¡¯s massive reserves of spiritual power, this 1% of spiritual power directly struck Huang Hong¡¯s body. The final result? His flesh splattered, his bones shattered, and not even a complete corpse was left.


    It could be said that Zhou Feng¡¯s actual battle prowess had reached an exaggerated level, especially under the enhancement of all sorts of passive buffs.


    After insta-killing Huang Hong, Zhou Feng did not hesitate at all and charged toward the nearby forest. He would be able to become one with the surroundings due to Nature Affinity and act without scruples.


    It would be challenging for others to detect his presence!

 Chapter 64 - The Yun Brothers

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­¡±


    Yu Ming¡¯s eyes were wide open at this moment because he had witnessed Zhou Feng killing his opponent.


    ¡®Both sides were clearly at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, but why was Huang Hong directly crushed?


    ¡®No wonder Zhou Feng is qualified to be a Dao Protector. This kind of strength is monstrous!¡¯


    Subconsciously, Yu Ming used all his strength to follow Zhou Feng into the forest.


    As for the other Tri-Gu disciples, they were not so lucky; almost all of them were dragged along.


    The Penta-Ghost disciples controlled illusory ghosts, while the White Bone disciples controlled white bone skeletons, blocking everyone¡¯s path of retreat.


    This formed an encirclement, and only Zhou Feng was in the position to forcefully charge out.


    ¡°There was actually an accident?¡±


    ¡°Huang Hong that trash! Leave that side to me!¡±


    ¡°Remember not to lose any of the Tri-Gu disciples, or the news will leak out! And be careful! That person doesn¡¯t seem to be simple!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry! That person won¡¯t be able to escape the Five-Ghosts Tracking Technique¡¯s detection!¡±


    ¡°And you should know the strength of the Yun brothers. There won¡¯t be any accidents!¡±


    Originally, this encirclement operation should have been perfect.


    As the only Soul Altar cultivator in this team, Jiang Jing had been under the impression that he could rely on the paper puppet to escape this encirclement.


    In reality, however, there were already two Soul Altar cultivators chasing after him.


    Without Soul Altar cultivators, the remaining people in this team were like meat on a chopping board.


    Unexpectedly, there was an accident.


    Thus, the two leaders decided to split into two groups. Most of them stayed behind to kill the remaining Tri-Gu disciples, while the small group chased after Zhou Feng.


    The Tri-Gu disciples simply couldn¡¯t hold on for long.


    Compared to the White Bone Temple and Penta-Ghost Sect, which had great battle strength due to their tacit cooperation, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s side appeared extremely chaotic.


    Simply put, they were fighting on their own, without any cooperation at all.


    Under such circumstances, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s method of nurturing disciples was undoubtedly flawed.


    Thanks to their scheming natures and the inner sect¡¯s treacherous power-struggle environment, these people couldn¡¯t let down their defenses and cooperate with each other.


    Compared to a regular army and the wandering soldiers, the gap was too big in such a large-scale battle.


    ¡­


    ¡°Wait¡­ Wait for me!¡± Yu Ming panted as he shouted towards the front.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s shadow was long gone.


    Under the support of his almost endless spiritual power, Zhou Feng¡¯s Ghost Shadow Steps had reached a flying-like level.


    In the blink of an eye, there was no one left.


    There was no other way! Yu Ming could only gnash his teeth and rush forward because his current was extremely dangerous.


    His Blood Qi had been extracted by the Blood Mosquito Gu, causing him to lose most of his battle prowess.


    Under the encirclement of the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect, he could only cling onto Zhou Feng if he wanted to live.


    ¡°He¡¯s right in front!¡±


    ¡°Let the Long-Tongued Ghost capture him first!¡±


    Not long after, the White Bone and the Penta-Ghost members caught up.


    A ghost in a white robe was slowly floating in the dark forest.


    This ghost looked extremely thin, with deep-set eyes and dark pupils. Together with the long tongue that fell to the bottom of its feet, it looked extremely strange and cold.


    This Long-Tongued Ghost clearly seemed to float very slowly, yet it appeared behind Yu Ming in the blink of an eye.


    Its long tongue wrapped around Yu Ming¡¯s neck.


    Yu Ming felt a chill run down his spine, and his neck was tied up by something wet.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! You cold-blooded bastard! You didn¡¯t save me!


    ¡°Aren¡¯t we friends? If I die! I curse you to die suddenly! Your whole family¡ª¡±


    Yu Ming broke down and began to curse Zhou Feng.


    In his heart, Zhou Feng clearly had the ability to save him, but he had escaped alone.


    It hadn¡¯t even taken him a few seconds to finish off Huang Hong. Given his strength, holding off the pursuers wasn¡¯t a problem.


    Yet, Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t even looked at him and allowed him to be caught.


    Yu Ming¡¯s curses became more and more unpleasant, but he soon lost the ability to speak as the Long-Tongued Ghost¡¯s tongue tightened.


    Yu Ming didn¡¯t even have the thought of struggling throughout the entire process. One had to know that his cultivation was also at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    On the surface, his cultivation was the same as Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    But under such circumstances, he didn¡¯t even have the thought of resisting and directly bowed his head.


    ¡°He¡¯s actually a piece of trash? He¡¯s just short of pissing his pants!¡±


    ¡°Haha! The Tri-Gu disciples are indeed getting worse with each generation!¡±


    Boss Yun and his brother, Yun Lao, who had arrived late, laughed when they saw Yu Ming¡¯s expression.


    What was the difference between Yu Ming¡¯s current performance and that of a person without balls?


    They really did not expect the Tri-Gu Sect to have fallen to such an extent.


    Previously, the Tri-Gu Sect had been the overlord of this region, forcing the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect to join forces in order to not be annexed.


    But how long had it been? The Tri-Gu Sect had already fallen to such a state?


    Boss Yun controlled the Long-Tongued Ghost and ordered it to let Yu Ming go.


    Yu Ming, who was almost unable to breathe, suddenly felt as if he had been reborn.


    ¡°Thank you, benefactors! Thank you, benefactors!¡±


    A flattering smile immediately appeared on Yu Ming¡¯s face upon realizing that he still had a chance to survive. His expression was the same as when he had treated Jiang Jing and Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Haha! How interesting! Let¡¯s hear it again!¡±


    Second Brother Yun kicked Yu Ming down and stepped on his head.


    Anger flashed in the depths of Yu Ming¡¯s eyes due to this humiliation, but he quickly surrendered.


    ¡°Grandpa! Grandpa!¡±


    Just like that, he laid on the ground and raised his butt slightly, like a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.


    This scene made Zhou Feng, who was hiding at the side, extremely uncomfortable.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t gone far at all. Instead, he was hidden in the bushes nearby.


    His passive Nature Affinity was in action, so Yu Ming and the others had not noticed him.


    ¡®Could it be that this person relied on wagging his tail and begging for mercy to survive in the inner sect? And he even cultivated to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation like this?¡¯


    To be honest, Yu Ming¡¯s performance just now made Zhou Feng feel like vomiting. He was no longer angry that Yu Ming had cursed his entire family.


    Such a person should not belong in this world!


    ¡°Stop playing! Quickly lock on the other person¡¯s location. There¡¯s no time to waste!¡±


    Compared to the playful Yun Lao, Boss Yun was much more serious.


    ¡°Good, good, good!¡±


    Yun Lao stepped on Yu Ming while taking out a soul banner to summon the Ghost Tracker.


    ¡°There are only two people, and they are only at the 9h Level of Qi Condensation¡­¡±


    The Spiritual Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body started to stir.


    If it was just these two people, they would not be his match at all.


    Zhou Feng planned to capture one alive and ask what had happened.


    He also wanted to find out where Jiang Jing was because he had the mother Heart-Linking Gu.


    If the mother Heart-Linking Gu fell into the hands of others, it would be troublesome!

 Chapter 65 - Two Soul Altar Cultivators?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yun Lao had just taken out the soul banner when Zhou Feng rushed out of the bushes next to him.


    The thick spiritual power was like a black cloud pressing down on a mountain, whizzing over.


    ¡°Get out of the way!¡±


    The moment Zhou Feng attacked, Boss Yun¡¯s body was covered with a layer of white bones.


    That layer of white bones was very different from the white skeleton he had encountered before.


    This layer of bone armor looked a little dazzling. The sparkling and translucent bones actually had a strange sense of beauty.


    ¡°Crack!¡±


    However, all that was needed was Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    This layer of bone armor emitted a clear, cracking sound.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Boss Yun felt a trace of spiritual power pierce through his defense and directly hit his body.


    This was the passive trigger of the Armor-Piercing Spear!


    No matter what kind of protection Boss Yun had outside, there was always a wisp of spiritual energy that could penetrate the defense outside.


    It directly attacked Boss Yun¡¯s body.


    Before Boss Yun could say anything, the avatar behind Zhou Feng controlled the tentacles, instantly binding Boss Yun.


    At that time, Yun Lao finally reacted. ¡°Long-Tongued Ghost!¡±


    Yun Lao controlled the soul banner and ordered the Long-Tongued Ghost to attack Zhou Feng.


    However, just as the Long-Tongued Ghost approached Zhou Feng¡¯s body, the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body evaporated the Long-Tongued Ghost!


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Accompanied by an ear-piercing and unpleasant scream, the Long-Tongued Ghost disappeared, leaving only a trace of coldness.


    Zhou Feng crushed Boss Yun¡¯s throat expressionlessly.


    Although Boss Yun was also at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation, he was like a little chicken before Zhou Feng.


    Whether it was spiritual power or physical body, the gap between both sides was too big.


    In addition, Zhou Feng could predict the opponent¡¯s movements at any time, thanks to his Battle Instinct.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Yun Lao had been very happy just a moment ago. Yet now, he saw his big brother crushed to death. His eyeballs bulged, and blood covered his eyeballs.


    ¡°Don¡¯t scream!¡±


    Zhou Feng was still a little afraid of attracting others, so he instantly controlled his tentacles and crushed Yun Lao.


    The Yun brothers were dead!


    The Yun brothers died tragically here in less than a minute.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even use his full strength. He felt that he was invincible in the Qi Condensation realm. This was because many passive skills could only be effective when facing opponents of the same realm or below.


    Take his Battle Instinct, for example. This was his only golden passive skill. It seemed non-existent, yet it was the strongest passive skill he had!


    Battle Instinct allowed him to effortlessly predict his opponent¡¯s movements, which was too much of an advantage in battle.


    His opponent couldn¡¯t even use any other moves. As long as Zhou Feng seized the opportunity, he would kill them in one hit.


    ¡°Are there really only two pursuers? And they are so weak?¡±


    After crushing the two people in front of him, Zhou Feng realized that he had struck too heavily.


    He should have left one person behind to ask what was going on.


    Then what should he do next?


    Given the current situation, he definitely could not complete the sect mission.


    The White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect were clearly plotting against the Tri-Gu Sect here.


    But the problem was that he had nowhere to go now.


    Moreover, the Heart-Linking Gu was currently residing in his body. If this hidden danger was not resolved, he could not leave at will.


    Moreover, this Demon-Devouring Gu was also a threat.


    If he did not return to the Tri-Gu Sect to obtain the method to brand the soul seal on his Vital Gu, the Demon-Devouring Gu would be no different than the Heart-Linking Gu.


    Therefore, now was obviously not a good time to ditch the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡®Right! There¡¯s still one thing left to be settled!¡¯


    Yu Ming, who was carefully squirming on the ground, reminded him that there was still one thing left to be done.


    ¡°You¡­ I was also forced just now! I beg you!¡±


    When Yu Ming saw Zhou Feng looking at him, his entire body couldn¡¯t help but tremble.


    ¡®Too terrifying! Why!? He¡¯s clearly a 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivator!


    ¡®Why is Zhou Feng so strong? Could he be a hidden Soul Altar cultivator!?¡¯


    Yu Ming, who had witnessed Zhou Feng killing the Yun brothers, couldn¡¯t figure it out no matter how hard he racked his brain.


    Why was Zhou Feng so strong? This was completely illogical!


    ¡°I know some secrets, I can¡ª¡±


    Yu Ming still wanted to fight for his life even under these circumstances. After all, he really did not want to die. If he could survive, he might be able to break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡®Perhaps¡­¡¯


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not give Yu Ming time to think about the future.


    The tentacle condensed from spiritual power grabbed his neck and then twisted it.


    ¡°He actually did not even dare to struggle. How did he cultivate to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation like this? How did he survive in the Tri-Gu Sect until now?¡±


    Zhou Feng threw Yu Ming¡¯s body away and shook his head.


    Until the moment before his death, Yu Ming was thinking, ¡®Why isn¡¯t Zhou Feng speaking? Why is he attacking¡ª¡¯


    Yu Ming wasn¡¯t mentally prepared at the moment before his death.


    He had been under the impression Zhou Feng would spare him. After all, he was a Tri-Gu disciple and quite familiar with Zhou Feng¡­ or so he thought.


    After dealing with Yu Ming, Zhou Feng started to search the corpses in accordance with international practice.


    As expected, he found three storage bags, but he did not have time to check their content.


    The Heart-Linking Gu in his body started to move.


    ¡°This is¡­ mutual induction?¡±


    Zhou Feng held his chest and frowned.


    The Heart-Linking Gu in his body seemed to be leading him in a certain direction.


    Could it be that Jiang Jing¡¯s Heart-Linking Gu was sending out a signal?


    After all, only the mother Heart-Linking Gu in Jiang Jing¡¯s hand could make the Heart-Linking Gu in his body send out such a disturbance.


    If that was the case¡­


    Zhou Feng quickly left the scene, leaving only three corpses on the spot.


    On the other side¡­


    Zhou Feng¡¯s team had been wiped out.


    No one had been able to escape. The White Bone and the Penta-Ghost disciples had even begun to clean up the scene.


    ¡°Dead? How is that possible? How long has it been?¡±


    ¡°Dead? Who died?¡±


    ¡°The Yun brothers are dead! This is troublesome! It seems that person is a Soul Altar cultivator!¡±


    ¡°Soul Altar cultivator? Could it be that the Tri-Gu Sect had taken wind of our plans?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s very possible! It looks like we have to hurry up!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The expressions of the Soul Altar cultivators from the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect were not very good.


    This was because the team they attacked actually had two Soul Altar cultivators.


    One was in the light, while the other was in the dark. It was evident that the Tri-Gu Sect had detected something.


    Zhou Feng would never expect that they had mistaken him for a Soul Altar cultivator.


    Actually, there was nothing wrong with the logic of these two people. The Yun brothers were the brothers of the same mother.


    One of them cultivated the Five-Ghosts Mountain-Moving Technique, while the other cultivated the White Bone Dharma Body. They were practically invincible in the Qi Condensation realm when they worked together.


    Given their cultivation level, only a Soul Altar cultivator could directly crush them in such a short time.


    You say that a person at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation killed the Yun brothers within a minute?


    This was absolutely impossible! Such a person had yet to be born in this world!

 Chapter 66 - Counterattack!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It¡¯s right ahead!¡±


    Zhou Feng followed the guidance of Heart-Linking Gu and carefully arrived at the edge of the cliff.


    Since he had Nature Affinity and was more careful, the pursuers did not catch up for a while.


    The Heart-Linking Gu in his body became more and more agitated as he got closer. It was as if this feeling was urging him to quickly jump down.


    ¡°Is this at the bottom of the cliff?¡±


    Zhou Feng endured the discomfort and looked at the bottom of the cliff. He just happened to see a slightly protruding, just enough for a person to land on.


    ¡®There seems to be a cave next to it. Could Jiang Jing be hiding there?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s brows twitched crazily. His instincts warned him that there was great danger below.


    At the same time, if he didn¡¯t go down, the Heart-Linking Gu in his body might directly explode.


    ¡®I hope Bone Coating is useful!¡¯


    Under such circumstances, he could only go down.


    Zhou Feng had already made preparations! There was a very high chance that he would fight with Jiang Jing after going down.


    Their group had been attacked by the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect.


    Jiang Jing probably didn¡¯t feel good either. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have used the Heart-Linking Gu to call for help. He might even have died from his serious injuries.


    Who knew what odds he had against a heavily injured Soul Altar cultivator?


    Also, would Bone Coating be able to withstand the first wave of the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s backlash?


    After so many days of recuperation, Bone Coating¡¯s bar had already been charged.


    This passive skill was able to reduce the damage he suffered for the first time.


    According to the description, the backlash from the Heart-Linking Gu in his body should be considered as damage. Then, Bone Coating should be able to resist the first wave of backlash.


    As long as he could resist this first backlash, he would have a chance.


    Zhou Feng let out a light breath and carefully walked down from the edge of the cliff.


    This process was smooth because he used his spiritual power to form tentacles. Hence, walking down the cliff was very easy.


    Soon, he landed on the platform and found that there was a small hole beside it.


    In the middle of this small hole sat a person. That person was none other than Jiang Jing!


    However, Jiang Jing¡¯s current condition didn¡¯t seem too good.


    The lower half of his body was gone, looking like a bloody mess.


    Zhou Feng could even see a long drag mark. With just a little imagination, he could figure out that Jiang Jing had climbed into this cave.


    Besides that, there were a few white bones sticking out of Jiang Jing¡¯s body.


    These white bones were crystal clear, and they didn¡¯t look like ordinary white bones at all. Instead, they looked like glass.


    There was a cloud of black fog hovering over Jiang Jing¡¯s head, giving off a gloomy and cold feeling.


    ¡®He¡¯s not dead yet!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised to see Jiang Jing in such a miserable state.


    Even so, Jiang Jing still survived and even used the Heart-Linking Gu to call him here.


    ¡°Ha¡­ Haha¡­ The heavens don¡¯t want me to die!¡±


    Jiang Jing, whose consciousness was a little blurry, was instantly energized when he saw Zhou Feng.


    He didn¡¯t expect that!


    Someone had escaped the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect¡¯s ambush. He had even received the call of the Heart-Linking Gu to come here.


    ¡®Indeed, the heavens do not want me to die!¡¯


    As long as he could swallow Zhou Feng and replenish some Blood Qi, he would be able to move.


    Jiang Jing¡¯s body was filled with blood. As long as there was a large amount of Blood Qi, he would be able to quickly recover from his injuries.


    ¡°You! Come here! Chop off your right hand!¡±


    Jiang Jing did not hold back toward Zhou Feng at all. In his eyes, Zhou Feng was currently his blood bag.


    Not to mention, Zhou Feng¡¯s Heart-Linking Gu was in his hands.


    Even though the current Jiang Jing was already in dire straits and had even abandoned the Blood Mosquito Gu that he had previously raised in order to get rid of the enemy, a small character like Zhou Feng could pose a threat to him.


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and replied with a calm expression, ¡°Alright!¡±


    Then, he slowly walked forward. His calm appearance made Jiang Jing frown.


    ¡°Stop! Just stand there and break your Heart Meridian!¡±


    Jiang Jing¡¯s eyes narrowed upon noticing Zhou Feng¡¯s expression.


    To avoid any accidents, he had Zhou Feng break his Heart Meridian on the spot.


    His tone was full of threat as if he was saying that if Zhou Feng made any strange moves, he would crush the Heart-Linking Gu.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng did not stop.


    Instead, he used all his strength to stimulate the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body. This should be the first time he took the initiative to interact with the Demon-Devouring Gu in order to help him unleash his strongest attack.


    In other times, he might not have done so. But now was a life-and-death point, so he could not relax at all.


    ¡°Bastard!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng actually dared to make a move, Jiang Jing immediately crushed the Heart-Linking Gu in his hand.


    ¡°It can be blocked!¡±


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that the newly-formed skeleton layer had really blocked the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s backlash.


    Even so, he could feel a piece of his heart being gnawed. This feeling was truly terrifying.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    A huge and chaotic wave of spiritual power erupted.


    This time, a large amount of Spiritual Qi condensed into a huge hammer and smashed toward Jiang Jing.


    ¡°Impossible! Isn¡¯t the Heart-Linking Gu¡ª¡±


    Jiang Jing¡¯s face was filled with disbelief because normally, once the mother Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s died, the child Gu should be the first to suffer a backlash.


    No one could withstand this kind of backlash. It was already good enough that he didn¡¯t die instantly.


    Surprisingly, Zhou Feng withstood it and even had the ability to attack!?


    And! Could anyone tell him why Zhou Feng possessed such terrifying Spiritual Qi!?


    This amount was abnormal! It was too much! It was really too much!


    Jiang Jing, who no longer had any Spiritual Qi to protect himself, was instantly smashed to the ground.


    The upper half of his body, except for his head, was turned into meat paste.


    ¡°You¡­ If it weren¡¯t for¡­¡±


    Traces of regret flashed through Jiang Jing¡¯s eyes.


    He regretted it! If he had crushed the Heart-Linking Gu when Zhou Feng entered the cave just now, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to resist.


    Perhaps, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have the ability to resist!


    Moreover, because he was too confident, it was useless even if he had a trump card.


    There was also a diamond talisman in his storage bag, which could create a light shield that could withstand the attack of a Soul Altar cultivator.


    This talisman was too expensive, and it was Jiang Jing¡¯s last life-saving item. In his mind, the Heart-Linking Gu should be enough to deal with a piece of trash like Zhou Feng, who was at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    There was no need to use the diamond talisman at all. It was precisely because of this trace of arrogance that Jiang Jing¡¯s life came to an abrupt end.


    ¡°AH!¡±


    At this time, Zhou Feng finally let out a scream.


    The Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s backlash attacked him again.


    Perhaps, he didn¡¯t die because of triggering Old Skin numerous times earlier, hence strengthening his physique multiple times.


    Zhou Feng immediately found the mother Gu¡¯s corpse and swallowed it, calming the Heart-Linking Gu in his body.


    Unfortunately, this did not solve the problem. He had to get the Heart-Linking Gu out of his body..

 Chapter 67 - Gluttony Unleashed its Passive Power

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°I actually killed him! This was not as difficult as I imagined!¡± Zhou Feng¡¯s hands were trembling slightly.


    To be honest, Jiang Jing¡¯s resistance was not as fierce as he had expected.


    Or it could be said that Jiang Jing had been too weak and arrogant. He had not even looked Zhou Feng in the eye, thinking that everything was under his control.


    Unfortunately, he had not expected to meet a freak like Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng managed to take the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s backlash head-on and even launched a counterattack.


    In the end, Jiang Jing was forced into a passive position, and Zhou Feng¡¯s full swing of his blade just now caused double the damage.


    Under so many factors, Jiang Jing was insta-killed.


    This rendered him unable to use some of his trump cards.


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng had smeared his teeth with poison and even stored some more in his mouth. As for what kind of poison he had used, even he himself did not know.


    He had obtained those poisons previously. In any case, there were all kinds of them.


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s original plan, it was very likely that he would fight to the death with Jiang Jing.


    When he fought to the death, he might be able to take the opportunity to bite Jiang Jing. The latter would never have thought that he would smear poison on his teeth and even have some poison in his mouth.


    Such a sneak attack would definitely increase Zhou Feng¡¯s chances of winning.


    Of course, such a tactic was completely based on his passive Poison Immunity. If he did not have this passive ability, he would not dare to take such a risk.


    ¡®This is troublesome! What should I do now?¡¯


    Not mentioning anything else, Zhou Feng urgently needed to deal with the Heart-Linking Gu that was starting to bite back.


    Earlier, he had swallowed the mother Gu¡¯s corpse; this was an emergency measure.


    It could slightly suppress the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s backlash.


    Speaking of which, this was something he had learned from Yu Ming.


    This seemed to be a method to deal with the sudden death of the person holding the mother Gu.


    But this method could only suppress the child Gu for some time. If one didn¡¯t use a special method to take out the Heart-Linking Gu, then the outcome would be death by the backlash.


    Zhou Feng rummaged through Jiang Jing¡¯s storage bag.


    He did not know why, but his heart was actually very calm at such a dangerous moment.


    Perhaps before this, he would have been very panicked and would not know what to do.


    But now, he was eerily calm.


    ¡®As expected, there aren¡¯t any! Spirit Nurturing Pills that can help one break through to the Soul Altar realm are indeed more precious!¡¯


    Zhou Feng found that there were many minerals that he had never seen before and some Spirit Stones. There were only some supplementary ingredients for medicinal pills and the like.


    ¡®Then¡­ I can only rely on the Demon-Devouring Gu!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s original plan was to find the Spirit Nurturing Pill. He had planned to break through to the Soul Altar realm. Perhaps, after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, he would be able to solve the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s problem.


    But now that he could not find the Spirit Nurturing Pill, he could only rely on the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    At present, the Demon-Devouring Gu seemed to be a little dispirited. It had just erupted too violently, squeezing out quite a bit of its Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    Now, the Demon-Devouring Gu was crazily devouring the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi in his body.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Gu! If you can hear me, then help me swallow the Heart-Linking Gu!¡±


    He was now trying to communicate with the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    A long time ago, he had learned that although the Demon-Devouring Gu did not have much intelligence, it could understand his thoughts and feelings. However, it would not bother with him most of the time.


    Zhou Feng believed that since the Heart-Linking Gu and Demon-Devouring Gu were inside his body, the Demon-Devouring Gu may be able to devour the Heart-Linking Gu.


    After all, these were both Gu entities, so it should be possible!


    The Demon-Devouring Gu did not react at all. It was still trying its best to absorb all the nutrients in his body.


    ¡°If you can get rid of the Heart-Linking Gu, how about I let you eat your fill once?¡±


    Zhou Feng continued to try to communicate with the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu had a slight reaction at the mention of a ¡®feast¡¯.


    Still, it did not take action.


    ¡®There is a reaction!?¡¯


    After sensing that the Demon-Devouring Gu had a reaction, Zhou Feng¡¯s mind jolted.


    He immediately took out all his storage bags and poured everything out.


    ¡®Eat!¡¯


    He started to eat crazily on the spot because he was well aware of the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s personality.


    Such empty words were enough for the Demon-Devouring Gu to take action.


    At the very least, he had to let the Demon-Devouring Gu feel his sincerity. Thus, Zhou Feng started to swallow all kinds of things into his stomach.


    Poisons, pills, herbs, and so on were all stuffed into his mouth.


    Zhou Feng possessed the Level-2 Gluttony, which could help him digest these things and decompose them into a large amount of nutrients on the spot.


    According to the passive skill¡¯s description, every time he ingested something, there would be a chance to obtain an unknown attribute.


    However, Zhou Feng had never obtained such an attribute.


    After he swallowed these things, his stomach began to roar crazily.


    Then, his stomach began to hurt!


    He swallowed such a plethora of things because he had the Level-2 Gluttony. If it were anyone else, they might have died from overeating.


    Actually, Zhou Feng himself did not want to do this, but this was the only way. Only then would he have a chance to let the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body work and get rid of the Heart-Linking Gu.


    If this method did not work, then he could only bet on the next passive skill to get rid of the Heart-Linking Gu.


    It had been some time since the last time he had obtained a passive skill.


    The progress bar on the skill panel had also increased by half. If he used all his strength to devour the Spiritual Qi in the Spirit Stones to speed up the progress bar, then perhaps he would obtain a new passive skill before the Heart-Linking Gu attacked.


    But if that was the case, he would be gambling his last hope on luck.


    Before the last second, he really did not want to place his hopes on luck.


    ¡°Gulp, Gulp, Gulp¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s stomach started to make some strange sounds.


    The Level-2 Gluttony displayed all its effects at this time.


    Under his reckless swallowing, he was actually able to digest these things. After digesting them, a part turned into chaotic Blood Qi, while the other part became turbid Spiritual Qi.


    After that, he couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer.


    He really couldn¡¯t digest the residue, so it was directly pushed out of his body through¡­ excretion.


    ¡®Is this Level-2 Gluttony? I seem to have neglected this passive skill!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the changes in his body and suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated this passive skill too much.


    Gluttony! Gluttony! If he didn¡¯t eat crazily, how could it be called Gluttony?


    A large number of unknown things were digested and turned into Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    What cultivation resources did this require?


    Zhou Feng crazily circulated the Demon-Devouring Technique to continuously strengthen his body.


    However, the only drawback of doing this was that the Spiritual Qi became even more mixed, which had already been much purer.


    The Blood Qi was also chaotic, and his control over his body also decreased a lot.


    Zhou Feng did not really care about this, he just had to make do with it.


    He did not ask for anything in this situation¡ªhe was not a perfectionist.


    Zhou Feng wanted to strive for a perfect breakthrough in every realm and even suppress his own realm. He did not want a perfect foundation.


    At present, he only wanted to quickly break through and get rid of the Heart-Linking Gu in his body..

 Chapter 68 - Master Hunter!

    ¡°It¡¯s about time!¡± Zhou Feng said softly to the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    From the beginning, the Demon-Devouring Gu had already absorbed an unknown amount of Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    In short, the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi that he had passively digested using Gluttony had all gone into the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s stomach.


    Unfortunately, he had yet to break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    If he broke through to the Soul Altar realm, he would be able to turn the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body into his Vital Gu.


    By then, it would be much easier to communicate, and he would even be able to command the Demon-Devouring Gu. He would not have to beg the Demon-Devouring Gu to work like he was doing now.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in his body also responded.


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng¡¯s chest seemed to have been struck by a heavy hammer, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.


    It was so sudden, he was shocked.


    Then, he noticed the Heart-Linking Gu along with the mouthful of blood on the ground.


    ¡°This is¡­ the Heart-Linking Gu? It¡¯s out!?¡±


    After seeing the expelled Heart-Linking Gu, he finally could not hold it in any longer.


    His essence, energy, and spirit seemed to have been sucked dry in an instant, and his entire body went limp on the ground.


    In this kind of life-and-death situation, the pressure was really too great.


    However, he didn¡¯t expect that the Demon-Devouring Gu could actually help him resolve the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s threat!


    Jiang Jing was already dead! And now the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s threat was also gone!


    Didn¡¯t this mean that there was nothing that could restrain him now?


    Zhou Feng could choose not to return to the Tri-Gu Sect and become a vagabond cultivator. However, the price was that he couldn¡¯t stay here. At least, he had to stay far away from the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s territory.


    After all, the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body had not truly recognized him as its master. If he met someone from the Tri-Gu Sect, there would still be a certain degree of danger.


    If he stayed far away from here, perhaps he could live quietly until he died of old age?


    ¡®Live until I die of old age? Impossible!¡¯


    Naturally, Zhou Feng did not want to choose this path.


    Escaping like this was too cowardly. He still wanted to break through to the Soul Altar realm and live forever!


    After transmigrating to this world, he did not have any family or friends.


    Rather than living a cowardly life alone, it would be better to pursue the legendary immortality.


    ¡®I have to return to the Tri-Gu Sect! Only the Tri-Gu Sect have the cultivation resources and techniques that I need!¡¯


    For Zhou Feng, only the Tri-Gu Sect could allow him to obtain sufficient cultivation resources and techniques. If he wanted to break through to the Soul Altar realm or beyond, he would have to rely on the Tri-Gu Sect.


    In the end, being attached to a sect was much more efficient than cultivating alone.


    But the current problem was, how could he go back?


    The outside should be filled with people from the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect. It was natural for him to beat anyone in the Qi Condensation realm given his strength.


    However, he would be in big trouble if he encountered a Soul Altar cultivator.


    ¡®Wait! I should be able to draw out a passive skill right now!¡¯


    If he was in a dilemma, he would first draw out the passive.


    Zhou Feng immediately looked at the skill panel and found that the progress bar had already exceeded half.


    Then, he took out all the Spirit Stones and began to absorb the Spiritual Qi to speed up the progress bar.


    Although he was currently unable to increase his strength much by absorbing the Spiritual Qi, it would be worth it as long as he could increase the progress bar¡¯s speed.


    Now that Zhou Feng¡¯s Spiritual Qi had reached its limit, it would be difficult to break through the upper limit no matter how he absorbed the Spiritual Qi and swallowed the pills.


    In other words, his current strength had completely reached the upper limit.


    There was almost no other way to increase his strength.


    Not long after, the Spirit Stones that he had obtained from Jiang Jing and the Yun brothers were instantly sucked dry.


    At the same time, more than half of his injuries had recovered.


    Just now, in order to expel the Heart-Linking Gu, his chest had suffered a serious injury, and his meridians were severely damaged.


    However, it didn¡¯t take much time for these injuries to heal with the cooperation of the Unyielding Heart and the Self-Healing Constitution.


    ¡°Finally full! Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately drew a new passive skill upon seeing that the progress bar was finally full.


    Now, only new passive skills could increase his strength.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    Master Hunter: You will obtain a hunting mark for every lifeform you hunt.


    Each hunting mark can be stacked and increase your perception by a little.


    ¡®Master Hunter? Perception?¡¯


    ¡®Is this a passive that needs to be slowly stacked?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw this new passive skill¡¯s description, it was hard for him to judge whether it was strong or not.


    First of all, this passive was a developmental-type skill that could be continuously stacked. There weren¡¯t many layers of restrictions, so theoretically, it should be able to be stacked infinitely.


    Secondly, what was the use of this ¡®perception¡¯? To be able to sense the enemy more easily?


    According to his understanding, this passive skill should be mainly meant for support.


    ¡®Every lifeform¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng happened to see an ant at this time and then casually slapped it!


    The ant was instantly killed.


    Then, a message appeared on the skill panel.


    ¡°New species successfully killed! +1 hunting mark!¡±


    ¡®This!? It was effective? An ant was able to grant me one hunting mark!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not feel any clear changes because of this hunting mark.


    Was it just that his intuition was a little sharper?


    He was not sure, but what if he stacked a few more hunting marks?


    There were thousands of lifeforms in this world, so didn¡¯t this mean that he could stack numerous hunting marks?


    ¡®Why don¡¯t I stack hunting marks first? Then I¡¯ll look for an opportunity to return to the Tri-Gu Sect!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had a goal now.


    Since this new passive skill could be stacked continuously, then he would do so first. Then, he would secretly inquire about the Tri-Gu Sect.


    It was decided!


    ¡­


    On the other side, the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect people had already begun to search for Zhou Feng and Jiang Jing.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that he would actually escape! The power of the Blood Mosquito Gu¡¯s self-detonation was astonishing!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine! Jiang Jing won¡¯t be able to escape this area! We will find him sooner or later!¡±


    ¡°Right now, the only thing I¡¯m worried about is that the Tri-Gu Sect will dispatch that crazy fellow when they realize something is wrong!¡±


    ¡°Yeah! That crazy fellow¡­¡±


    ¡°We can drag it out as long as we can! We can use the moment when the Tri-Gu Sect is fighting among themselves¡­¡±


    The ones conversing were the two Soul Altar cultivators.


    At present, these two had sealed off the area within 100 kilometers. They wanted to find Jiang Jing, who had escaped so that the Tri-Gu Sect wouldn¡¯t notice anything strange.


    Unfortunately, the Tri-Gu Sect had indeed sensed something was wrong. After all, how many Soul Altar cultivators had already died? It would be strange if they still hadn¡¯t sensed something was wrong.


    The problem was that the Tri-Gu Sect sensed that something was wrong and didn¡¯t react immediately.


    This was because the Tri-Gu Sect was extremely discordant. It could be seen from the fact that the Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction lived separately.


    As for the third faction, the competition between the different mountain peaks was also very great.


    Now, the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect used this point to deplete a lot of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s vitality..

 Chapter 69 - Grand Elder Old Demon Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°New species successfully killed¡­¡±


    ¡°I have 12 hunting marks now!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng had obtained the passive Master Hunter, he began his passive journey.


    He had already stacked 12 hunting marks during his short journey, which increased his perception by 12 points.


    At this moment, he finally had a very clear feeling.


    Zhou Feng felt that he had entered a very magical state.


    His ears could hear very far away sounds, and he could feel even the slightest vibration. His eyes could see very small things, such as a swaying leaf. Looking from afar, he could even see the veins of the leaf.


    ¡°This is getting harder and harder! Different snakes are also considered a species!¡±


    Zhou Feng restrained his spiritual power.


    The hunting marks were getting harder and harder to be stack because only when killing a new lifeform could one stack them.


    In other words, if one killed a spider, it would be useless if they later killed a subspecies of a spider.


    This meant that the further back he went, the harder it would be to stack the hunting marks.


    Other than that, what troubled him was how he was going to return to the Tri-Gu Sect.


    He did not seem to know the way!


    When he had come here, he was following others. Now that he was the only one left, how was he going to return?


    Zhou Feng stood rooted to the ground, thinking about what he was going to do.


    At this time, a Shadow Leopard stealthily moved to the back.


    The Shadow Leopard was a very common demon beast. It grew and roamed in the dark forest.


    It could control the power of darkness since its birth, so it was a natural master of disguise. It would often hide in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack other animals.


    This Shadow Leopard regarded Zhou Feng as its prey, so it quietly crawled in the bushes.


    Moreover, because its body was in the shadows, even some small insects that passed by did not notice the Shadow Leopard¡¯s existence.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have not noticed it as he was still deep in thought.


    After observing for a while, the Shadow Leopard could not hold back anymore. It suddenly jumped at breakneck speed and attacked Zhou Feng from behind.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng turned around with a calm expression, and a tentacle shot out, instantly piercing through the Shadow Leopard¡¯s body.


    The sneak attack failed!


    ¡°The wilderness is a dangerous place. There are actually so many demonic beasts. Moreover, don¡¯t I have Nature Affinity?¡± Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but frown.


    He didn¡¯t know how many times he had been attacked.


    For example, in terms of strength, the Shadow Leopard in front of him was at least at the 3rd or 4th Level of Qi Condensation.


    This was a little ridiculous. One had to know that this was just a random demonic beast in this forest.


    Fortunately, his strength was top-notch, and his perception was strong enough. Otherwise, he would not be able to survive for long here.


    Moreover, he remembered that Nature Affinity was in action. He could become one with the surrounding environment when in the wild.


    At the same time, it was very easy to get a good impression of flowers, birds, insects, and beasts. Why did this passive skill seem to be of no use at all?


    Just as he was thinking about what to do next¡­


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    A booming sound reverberated throughout the entire area!


    A black cloud covered the entire sky, and an oppressive and decaying aura began to spread.


    ¡°You dare! Crazy woman, are you trying to destroy this mineral vein!?¡±


    ¡°Stop! Do you really think that we are afraid of your Tri-Gu Sect! We have already obtained the support of the Voodoo Cult!¡±


    ¡°Does your Tri-Gu Sect really think that you can cover the sky with one hand?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A furious roar attracted Zhou Feng¡¯s attention.


    ¡°This is¡­ a huge battle?¡±


    It sounded like the White Bone and the Penta-Ghost experts were locked in battle with the Tri-Gu experts.


    ¡°Thousand Soul Banner!¡±


    A clear voice faintly responded to those furious roars.


    And then, more than 1,000 demonic figures appeared out of thin air. These demonic figures all had their own forms.


    The strange demonic figures blotted out the sky and began to devour all living things around them.


    ¡°Ah! Old Demon Gu! Are you really not afraid of the Voodoo Cult Lord?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re dead! There are things that the Voodoo Cult Lord needs here! You¡ª¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the distant demonic figure. Suddenly, he felt that it was somewhat familiar!


    ¡°This¡­ This demonic figure¡­¡±


    Wasn¡¯t this the demonic avatar condensed from the Demon-Devouring Battle Art?


    Subconsciously, Zhou Feng activated the Demon-Devouring Technique and condensed a demonic avatar using the Demon-Devouring Battle Art.


    ¡°Eh? Are you a disciple of my Bitter Bamboo Peak? Why are you here?¡±


    A voice sounded in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, and then a person appeared in front of Zhou Feng out of nowhere.


    Zhou Feng swallowed his saliva and looked forward. He saw a person whose gender was difficult to distinguish staring at him with a burning gaze.


    This person¡¯s face was extremely handsome, and from a distance, it was difficult to distinguish the gender.


    This was a combination of feminine beauty and male masculinity.


    However, what made Zhou Feng¡¯s scalp tingle was that this person¡¯s hands and neck were covered with poisonous blisters, and each one of them was as disgusting as small mushrooms.


    This was extremely incompatible with that handsome face. Just one look was enough to make one feel disgusted.


    ¡°I¡ª¡±


    Old Demon Gu interrupted Zhou Feng before he could speak.


    ¡°The Demon-Devouring Technique is very crude! The Spiritual Qi is extremely mottled, while the Blood Qi is a mess! The realm is also at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation! That¡¯s right! This is a disciple of my Bitter Bamboo Peak!¡±


    At that moment, Old Demon Gu¡¯s voice suddenly changed. The earlier clear and sweet voice became hoarse.


    ¡°Interesting! All the meridians in the body are severely damaged! Is this forcibly taming the Spiritual Qi in the body?


    ¡°The Spiritual Qi in the body is so heavily conflicted, but he still survived? His body is so tough?


    ¡°His heart was bitten¡­ Is this the Heart-Linking Gu? This fellow is actually fine after the Heart-Linking Gu¡¯s backlash!?


    ¡°Cultivating recklessly until now and still not suffering a Qi Deviation? And the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body seems to have undergone several transformations?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The more Old Demon Gu looked at Zhou Feng, the more interested ¡®he¡¯ felt. At the same time, he analyzed Zhou Feng¡¯s body condition.


    At some point, Old Demon Gu¡¯s voice changed from a hoarse voice to a clear and melodious female voice.


    Zhou Feng felt as if his underwear had been stripped off, and Old Demon Gu had seen through all of his secrets.


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s gaze swept over every inch of his body. That feeling made all the hair on his body stand up, but he did not dare to make any movements.


    Old Demon Gu looked for a while before finally giving Zhou Feng a chance to speak. ¡°Speak! How did you get here?¡±


    ¡°I accepted the sect mission¡ª¡±


    When Zhou Feng started to explain how he got here, Old Demon Gu interrupted him.


    ¡°It seems that someone in the sect doesn¡¯t put me in their eyes!


    ¡°You! Very good! You are qualified to be my disciple!¡±


    Old Devil Gu¡¯s face suddenly revealed a strange smile..

 Chapter 70 - Spirit Nurturing Pill in Hand!?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    All the hair on Zhou Feng¡¯s body suddenly stood on end. His body naturally began to tense up, and an inexplicable sense of fear emanated from the bottom of his heart.


    Old Demon Gu pulled out a piece of flesh from his body.


    After this piece of flesh was pulled out, it was still squirming crazily as if it had its own consciousness.


    A heavy aura enveloped Zhou Feng. Before he could react, the piece of flesh flew onto his body.


    ¡°I¡ª¡±


    Zhou Feng subconsciously tried to dodge, but he was unable to do so.


    The piece of flesh directly fused into his body.


    Then, a strange mark formed on the palm of his right hand.


    ¡°Let¡¯s Go! Otherwise, those Voodoo lunatics will catch up!¡±


    After Old Demon Gu did all this, he grabbed Zhou Feng¡¯s shoulder with one hand. Then, he charged into the sky.


    Zhou Feng immediately experienced flying.


    The moment Old Demon Gu left, a booming sound echoed once again.


    Old Demon Gu had completely destroyed the chain of mines!


    Since the Voodoo Cult needed the resources there, it was naturally impossible to allow those lunatics to get their hands on them.


    Therefore, Old Demon Gu didn¡¯t care about the consequences and directly destroyed the mines.


    As for the conspiracy of the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect this time¡­ It was also vanquished.


    Since many Soul Altar Tri-Gu cultivators died, the Sect Leader finally gave the order to the Grand Elder, who was stationed in another secret realm, to take care of it while he was at it.


    Grand Elder Old Demon Gu¡¯s way of handling such matters was also straightforward and crude. He killed all the suspicious characters in this area.


    After the suspicious people died, the conspiracy would naturally disappear!


    After all, people were the ones making conspiracies.


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s way of dealing with them was also very similar to Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s style. Or rather, it could be said that the style of the Tri-Gu Sect had always been this simple and crude to the outside world.


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s flying speed was extremely fast, and he did not use any spiritual artifacts.


    In the blink of an eye, they arrived at Mount Gu. It must be known that Zhou Feng had walked for several days back then.


    However, the air-space was also very dangerous. Just now, they actually passed by a huge eagle.


    The terrifying aura its body exuded caused even Old Demon Gu to carefully avoid it.


    ¡°That is¡­¡±


    This was the first time Zhou Feng observed the entire Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s layout.


    A huge array actually enveloped this mountain range.


    There were numerous buildings in front of the mountain peak, and behind it was a somewhat dilapidated pagoda.


    But when he wanted to see clearly, a cloud of mist enveloped the back of the main peak.


    ¡°We¡¯re here!¡±


    A languid old woman¡¯s voice entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    When he looked at Old Demon Gu again, he discovered that Old Demon Gu¡¯s appearance had changed entirely.


    The poisonous blisters on his body, which were like small mushrooms, had all disappeared.


    What replaced them was his skin, which was as smooth as jade.


    The thin black gauze clothes could not hide the voluptuous mountain peaks at all. This fellow¡¯s curvaceous figure gave people a lingering charm.


    If Old Demon Gu was a very deformed monster before, he was now a charming and mature lady.


    Such a huge change naturally left a huge impact on Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    This¡­ This change was too huge!


    ¡®Is this a man or a woman? Is this the original appearance? Could it be because of the Demon-Devouring Technique?¡¯


    Many questions arose in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    Old Demon Gu walked elegantly to Myriad Gu Tower without waiting for him to think too much.


    ¡°The Grand Elder is back!¡±


    The news of the Grand Elder¡¯s return instantly spread throughout the entire inner sect.


    For inner disciples, no matter which Elder it was, it was a rare sight.


    Not to mention the strongest among the Elders, the Grand Elder.


    Thus, many people began to gather.


    However, Old Demon Gu directly led Zhou Feng into Myriad Gu Tower.


    The other inner disciples only glanced at him.


    Zhou Feng and Old Demon Gu, who had just entered, bumped into Old Niu, who was about to leave.


    ¡®Oh no! This¡­¡¯


    Old Niu¡¯s heart turned cold when he saw Old Demon Gu. Then, his eyes instantly turned gloomy when he saw Zhou Feng following Old Demon Gu.


    ¡®What to do! What to do!?¡¯


    At that moment, Old Niu was like a dead dog, his mind constantly thinking of countermeasures. He had never thought that the Grand Elder would actually return to the sect at this time.


    ¡®Normally, wasn¡¯t the Grand Elder handling matters outside?


    ¡®Moreover, why is Zhou Feng following behind the Grand Elder.¡¯


    ¡°Is it this person?¡± Old Demon Gu pointed at Old Niu, his expression somewhat languid.


    ¡°Yes!¡± Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what was happening either, so he could only nod.


    Old Niu¡¯s body was instantly torn into pieces as soon as he finished speaking. He didn¡¯t even say a word to defend himself.


    ¡®Is he seeking revenge on his parents?¡¯


    This scene made the corners of Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth twitch.


    He killed Old Niu because of just one sentence?


    Moreover, this Old Niu was also a Soul Altar cultivator!


    Zhou Feng never thought that he would have such a day.


    Old Demon Gu threw a medicine bottle to Zhou Feng and casually said a few words, ¡°There¡¯s a Spirit Nurturing Pill inside. I¡¯ll give you three days. If you don¡¯t achieve a breakthrough, then you¡¯ll die!


    ¡°I hope you can survive! Previously, a person failed to break through, so I could only eat them reluctantly!


    ¡°The Qi Condensation realm is garbage. It rakes one¡¯s stomach turn!¡±


    That ¡®calm¡¯ tone made one¡¯s hair stand on end.


    ¡®Failed breakthrough? Eaten? This couldn¡¯t be Eldest Senior Brother, right!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that not only was his situation not getting better, but it was actually getting worse.


    ¡®But the Spirit Nurturing Pill was obtained just like that? I can at least try to break through to the Soul Altar realm!¡¯


    Old Demon Gu directly disappeared after handing the Spirit Nurturing Pill to Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng was the only one left.


    After going around in circles, he finally returned to the Tri-Gu Sect.


    However, after going outside once, it seemed that everyone died, leaving only him alive.


    Should he say that his luck was good or bad?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s emotions were a little complicated, but he did not overthink. He planned to return to Bitter Bamboo Peak and initiate his breakthrough.


    ¡­


    After returning to Bitter Bamboo Peak, there didn¡¯t seem to be any changes during the time Zhou Feng had been away.


    He seemed to be the only one on the peak right now.


    No new disciples had joined yet.


    Zhou Feng returned to his room and didn¡¯t hesitate or prepare anything. He directly consumed the Spirit Nurturing Pill that he had just obtained.


    When the Spirit Nurturing Pill had entered Zhou Feng¡¯s stomach, he felt his entire body become soft while his consciousness became hazy.


    This feeling was like the legendary Immortal Ascension.


    Threads of spiritual light shot out of his mind.


    Countless threads of spiritual power began to transform into soul power, and a surge of soul power converged in his mind.


    This feeling was as if he had suddenly become enlightened!


    In a trance, he seemed to see¡­ the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi? His body seemed to be slowly rising into the sky?


    Zhou Feng felt that he was slowly floating toward the sky. His field of vision was getting bigger and bigger, while the buildings on the ground were slowly shrinking..

 Chapter 71 - Soul Altar Realm and Soul Harvesting!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng felt that his spiritual power was constantly being transformed.


    And because the spiritual power in his body was extremely mottled, the converted soul power was also very impure.


    This caused the process of casting the Soul Altar to be extremely difficult.


    Not only was the speed of casting the Soul Altar slow, but the quality was also very poor.


    Nonetheless, his spiritual power was too potent, so even though the speed of casting the Soul Altar was slow, it was very stable.


    He felt that a small space had been opened up in his mind.


    This small space was like the storage space of a storage bag.


    Then, more spiritual power poured into this space.


    Finally, this space was branded with Zhou Feng exclusive seal.


    At this stage, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power could be said to have extremely obvious personal characteristics.


    Starting from the Soul Altar realm, others could identify a person through their soul power.


    No matter how a person or their appearance changed, their soul power was tough to alter.


    As long as they could detect a person¡¯s soul power, they could rely on this trace of soul power to confirm the person¡¯s identity.


    At the same time, breaking through to the Soul Altar realm was also the most dangerous threshold.


    Why were there so few Soul Altar cultivators?


    9th Level Qi Condensation cultivators were almost everywhere in the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s inner sect. Unfortunately, there weren¡¯t many who could break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    This was because other than the Spirit Nurturing Pill, which was challenging to obtain, one would encounter a Heart-Questioning Tribulation when they broke through to the Soul Altar realm.


    This truth-seeking trial was the first tribulation that all cultivators encountered on the path of cultivation.


    Every cultivator¡¯s truth-seeking trial was different. Some people might not even feel it and muddle through it.


    However, some people would not be able to pass it no matter what.


    The difficulty of the truth-seeking trial had nothing to do with one¡¯s aptitude. Everything was all about the heart.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng encountered his first truth-seeking trial.


    Suddenly, some philosophical questions appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    ¡°Why do I have these philosophical questions?¡±


    ¡®Why do we exist? Is the world we live in real?


    ¡®Is our will free? Or are we just puppets controlled by someone?¡¯


    If some smart people pondered over these questions, they might become more and more obsessed.


    To smart people, ordinary questions were not difficult for them. Only these philosophical questions would make these people think more.


    Zhou Feng did not feel anything about these questions.


    ¡®Why do we exist? Isn¡¯t this question self-obvious? I exist!


    ¡®Does this world really exist? Nonsense!¡¯


    This so-called Heart-Questioning Tribulation did not trap Zhou Feng at all.


    It worked!


    After a long breakthrough, Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar was finally forged.


    The soul power in his body began to be combed again.


    Moreover, he could discern further places and things that he could not normally sense.


    The most obvious change was that he could now look inside!


    ¡®These are¡­ my meridians?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was shocked when he saw his meridians for the first time.


    The originally smooth meridians were now covered with crisscrossing scars.


    Although these scars had already healed, they still looked terrifying.


    Then, there were hidden injuries all over his body, and some of his meridians were even blocked.


    His current body could be described as a porcelain doll riddled with holes.


    In other words, it looked like nothing had happened, but in reality, it was riddled with holes.


    These were all the consequences of his cultivation and random devouring.


    But there was no other way; the previous situation did not allow him to cultivate slowly.


    Next was the Demon-Devouring Gu!


    Zhou Feng saw the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body through his inner vision.


    The appearance of the Demon-Devouring Gu was not what he had imagined. It looked like a small caterpillar with a few black rings on its body.


    ¡®My heart¡­ Is the backlash from the Heart-Linking Gu so severe!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart had a hole!


    Such a close observation was terrifying, but why hadn¡¯t he felt it at all until now?


    ¡®I have already broken through to the Soul Altar realm, but why doesn¡¯t my strength feel like it has increased?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt somewhat surreal.


    He had broken through successfully just like that? But why did the Soul Altar realm not seem to be much different from the Qi Condensation realm?


    That¡¯s right! The Soul Altar realm also seemed to be divided into grades!


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s information, his Soul Altar seemed to be a Grade-9 one!


    Grade-9 Soul Altar? This seemed to be the lowest grade, and it could only nurture a soul artifact.


    Regarding this, he was already mentally prepared, so he wasn¡¯t too disappointed.


    He was well aware that he hadn¡¯t made any preparation before his breakthrough. He had only relied on the Spirit Nurturing Pill for his breakthrough.


    In addition to the various flaws left behind by his haphazardous cultivation, a Grade-9 Soul Altar was also within expectations.


    Zhou Feng was also clear that his cultivation aptitude wasn¡¯t very good, and he mainly relied on various passive skills.


    Speaking of passive skills, he couldn¡¯t help but glance at the skill panel.


    Who knew how long it would take to draw the next passive skill?


    Although he had drawn one passive skill two days ago, the more passive skills he had, the better.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!? How did the progress bar turn gold!?¡±


    Zhou Feng was bewildered. The progress bar, which had already reached 0, was now full and had even turned gold.


    This meant that he could draw another Gold passive skill!


    ¡®Why? Why?¡¯


    He had already drawn one passive skill. How long had it been? Less than two days!


    Could it be because he had broken through?


    Zhou Feng began to recall the changes in his progress bar after breaking through.


    Thinking about it, he noticed some changes.


    It seemed that every time he broke through, his progress bar would increase extremely quickly.


    Suddenly, he was able to draw passive skills again, and when his realm stagnated, the frequency of drawing passive skills was not that high.


    If breaking through his realm could speed up the acquisition of passive skills, then should he change his strategy?


    ¡°Gold passive skill! This is the second one! I wonder what good passive skill I can draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say anything else and directly started to draw the passive skill.


    In any case, if he could draw it, he would draw it. Having a new passive skill would not be a loss.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    Soul Harvesting: You might obtain a soul for every cultivator you kill.


    Each soul could increase a little bit of soul power!


    ¡®Soul power!¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately noticed this term. Soul power seemed only to be obtained after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm!


    Moreover, the soul power¡¯s strength seemed to affect many things.


    For example, if one¡¯s soul power were strong enough to nurture a spiritual artifact, then the speed of nurturing the soul artifact would be faster!


    Furthermore, compared to strengthening the power of the soul as per normal, the passive skill¡¯s condition was not too difficult to achieve..

 Chapter 72 - Shabby

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®There¡¯s no upper limit again! In other words, as long as one is willing, one can stack infinitely!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the passive Soul Harvesting and raised his eyebrows.


    Evidently, this passive skill was ridiculously powerful.


    This was because its effect could be stacked infinitely, unlike the passive Master Hunter.


    The passive Master Hunter allowed him to stack 1 hunting mark per new lifeform he killed.


    However, there was a limit to the number of new lifeforms in this world, even though Master Hunter¡¯s description did not explicitly state it.


    However, the hunting marks could not be stacked infinitely.


    On the other hand, the passive Soul Harvesting was different. As long as Zhou Feng killed a cultivator, he would have the chance to collect their soul.


    This did not have Master Hunter¡¯s passive and invisible restriction.


    Assuming Zhou Feng¡¯s lifespan was 100 years, how terrifying would his soul power be if he harvested 1,000 souls per year?


    ¡°And there¡¯s a lot of room for manipulation!¡±


    After reading this passive skill¡¯s description, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but harbor a sinister thought.


    It would be too easy for him to harvest a soul when he was strong enough.


    For example, he could kill at will regardless of good or evil. He would collect tens of thousands of souls if no one stopped him.


    Another example was that he might be able to establish a sect.


    He could absorb a large number of new disciples every year. When these new disciples cultivated to a certain level, he would harvest them one by one.


    These dark thoughts were completely out of Zhou Feng¡¯s control. They couldn¡¯t help but appear.


    Especially in this world, there weren¡¯t many moral restrictions.


    No one knew him. Everyone else was just a stranger to him.


    In addition, Zhou Feng had seen and experienced many dark things in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Zhou Feng forced himself to calm down. His desires could not control him.


    ¡®No rush! This is just one of the many passive skills.¡¯


    He would be able to draw out even better passive skills in the future. Thus, there was no need for a mere passive skill to cause him to lose his mind.


    ¡®That¡¯s right! That mark!¡¯


    In order to prevent himself from harboring dark thoughts, Zhou Feng diverted his attention.


    Old Demon Gu seemed to have left a mark on his body if he remembered correctly.


    Before breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, he had been unable to sense anything suspicious.


    But now? After opening up the Soul Altar, Zhou Feng could also use his soul power to inspect his surroundings.


    He immediately looked at his right hand.


    Sure enough, this time was completely different from what he had seen before.


    Under the blessing of his soul power, his right hand was now attached to a black sphere of soul power.


    This sphere of soul power was like gangrene that was attached to the bone, firmly sticking to his hand.


    What¡¯s worse, that sphere of soul power had been seeping into his body.


    If he did not observe it carefully, he would not have noticed it at all.


    ¡®Is it like this again?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was immediately filled with an unknown fire, and a feeling of annoyance arose spontaneously.


    It was always like this! The feeling of being constantly threatened by someone was really too unpleasant.


    From the Bloodthirsty Gu and the Heart-Linking Gu to the mark this Old Demon Gu left now.


    He seemed to be in a state of being threatened.


    ¡®Soon! I am already in the Soul Altar realm! When the time comes¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s anger slowly subsided. He believed that these days would not last for long. His speed of improving his strength would definitely surpass everyone else with so many passive skills helping him.


    Moreover, no one would notice Zhou Feng.


    At present, in the eyes of others, Zhou Feng should be a person with relatively good luck. He was barely able to break through to the Soul Altar realm, and his Soul Altar was only a Grade-9 one.


    He also didn¡¯t have any backing behind him, and his physique wasn¡¯t special.


    Moreover, his aptitude wasn¡¯t considered monstrous. Basically, no one would pay too much attention to such a person.


    In the end, he would just become a nobody, which was suitable for him. He would pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger. He would take advantage of this situation in order to increase his passive skills¡¯ stacking buffs.


    Still, although the current Zhou Feng had broken through to the Soul Altar realm, he was completely ignorant of all the Soul Altar cultivation knowledge and techniques.


    Meanwhile, his body was also riddled with injuries because no one taught him previously.


    He should find someone to guide him on his cultivation path. Otherwise, it would be very easy for an accident to happen.


    Unfortunately, he was the only one left on Bitter Bamboo Peak. The only person he could find was Old Demon Gu.


    ¡®I can only go and find him! Otherwise, the rest of my cultivation path will be too difficult!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not want to face Old Demon Gu. At least, he did not want to stand in front of Old Demon Gu without the ability to protect himself.


    Old Demon Gu only needed to make a slight move, and his life would be in his pocket.


    Although this kind of feeling was really unpleasant, he was all alone and had no other way. After all, Old Demon Gu was his master in name!


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng slowly walked to the back of the mountain.


    The back of the mountain was still as gloomy as before. He had come here once before.


    At that time, the back of the mountain had almost been barren, giving people a strange and cold feeling.


    At the same time, it would constantly increase one¡¯s appetite. One¡¯s stomach may not be hungry at all, but saliva would constantly flow out of their mouths.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had the Level-2 Gluttony, or else he would have been controlled by his appetite long ago.


    ¡°Looks like you have a few secrets! You actually relied on a Spirit Nurturing Pill to break through to the Soul Altar realm!


    ¡°Moreover, you¡¯ve cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, and you¡¯re actually not affected by your appetite?¡±


    Zhou Feng had just arrived at the back mountain when a rough voice entered his ears.


    It was Old Demon Gu¡¯s voice.


    It was different from the mature woman¡¯s voice from last time. This time, it was the voice of a brawny middle-aged man.


    When Zhou Feng heard Old Demon Gu say that he had secrets, his expression was a little stiff, and he forcefully changed the topic.


    ¡°Master! That¡ª¡±


    ¡°Master? Hahaha~¡± Old Demon Gu interrupted him like before. ¡°Interesting! It seems that you really have a lot of secrets! This is Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s heritage jade slip!¡±


    After saying that, a black jade slip flew toward him.


    Zhou Feng was quick and caught the jade slip.


    ¡°It contains all the information you want to know! I hope you can survive and beat those monsters. Otherwise, you can only become a part of my Thousand Soul Banner!¡±


    After saying this, the back mountain once again returned to its previous silence.


    There was only a jade slip¡ªthis was the only support Zhou Feng could obtain now.


    Compared to the other peaks, the support he received could be said to be shabby.


    If the people from the other peaks broke through to the Soul Altar realm, then they could directly obtain resources from the sect.


    First, there were the trained slaves that could assist you in your daily cultivation and collect resources.


    Most importantly, when these slaves were handed over to you, they also brought along the Heart-Linking Gu. There was no need to worry about the loyalty of these slaves.


    Secondly, there were all sorts of Soul Altar cultivation methods, life-saving talismans, medicinal pills, and materials to forge spiritual tools.


    After reaching the Soul Altar realm, the sect would begin to truly invest in its disciples.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng was on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    There wasn¡¯t a single form of help mentioned above. There was only a jade slip.


    This jade slip was given by Old Demon Gu when he was in a good mood.. If he was in a bad mood, not to mention this jade slip, he might even swallow Zhou Feng whole~

 Chapter 73 - The Jade Slips Information

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After Zhou Feng received the jade slip, he didn¡¯t stay in the back mountain for too long. He returned to his room and began to read the information on the jade slip.


    ¡°This¡­ It seems I need to use my soul power to read the information inside!¡±


    He had some understanding of jade slips like this.


    This thing was especially used to store some important information.


    Moreover, only cultivators above the Soul Altar realm could read it because this required the help of soul power.


    Zhou Feng placed the jade slip on his forehead and circulated his soul power.


    This jade slip that contained the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s inheritance began to shine slightly. After that, a large amount of information poured into his mind like a torrent.


    ¡°This is the Demon-Devouring Technique? As expected, it¡¯s only a part of the Soul Altar cultivation technique! There¡¯s nothing in the later stages!¡±


    First of all, he came into contact with the follow-up cultivation of the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    The true power of the Demon-Devouring Technique only started at the Soul Altar realm!


    The previous Demon-Devouring Technique could only be considered as the foundation establishment stage, and there were almost no special highlights.


    But from the Soul Altar realm onward, the Demon-Devouring Technique had a new ability.


    This ability enabled the practitioner to devour other people to replenish themselves, especially those with special physiques.


    After using the Demon-Devouring Technique to devour people with special physiques, then the main body would also have a high probability of obtaining this special physique.


    Apart from this, the Demon-Devouring Technique could also devour all kinds of Spiritual Qi and spiritual items for its own use.


    This was extremely compatible with the name of the Demon-Devouring Technique. The entire process depended on the word ¡®devour¡¯.


    What was worth mentioning was that the Demon-Devouring Technique could not be used directly.


    Instead, it needed to leave a mark on the target and wait for the mark to slowly assimilate the target.


    Only then could the Demon-Devouring Technique be used!


    ¡®Demon-Devouring Seal? Then the mark on my body¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly thought of Old Demon Gu¡¯s mark on his body.


    Wasn¡¯t this the damn Demon-Devouring Seal!?


    Didn¡¯t this mean that he had already become Old Demon Gu¡¯s target?


    ¡®Still too slow! Why have I only just broken through to the Soul Altar realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng once again felt that his cultivation speed was not fast enough.


    He had clearly chosen the riskiest path of cultivation, but he still felt that it was not fast enough.


    If the other inner disciples heard Zhou Feng¡¯s words, they would definitely curse.


    Wasn¡¯t this fast enough? It seemed like less than a year had passed since Zhou Feng officially cultivated to the Soul Altar realm!


    Such a speed was already astounding, but no one had noticed it all along. Or it could be said that because he was on Bitter Bamboo Peak, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation had always been neglected.


    But if one were to be serious, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation speed was definitely not slow. To a certain extent, it could even be compared to some freaks.


    Although the price for this was a body full of hidden injuries while the future path of cultivation would be even bumpier, the Demon-Devouring Technique itself was a Demonic Path cultivation technique that took the unconventional path of the sword. Its advancement was fast, but the risk was also terrifying.


    Regarding the disadvantages of the Demon-Devouring Technique, the jade slip also recorded it.


    Every time one engaged in the Demon-Devouring Technique, it was a kind of pollution to oneself.


    Especially the pollution during the soul stage because the Demon-Devouring Technique was not without side effects.


    Before the Soul Altar realm, Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi could become mottled.


    But after the Soul Altar realm, one would take some of the target¡¯s will into their body every time they devoured someone.


    In the beginning, it might not have any effect, but later on, one¡¯s personality, will, and thoughts would gradually be distorted.


    In the end, the practitioner would no longer be themselves, but a new ¡®person¡¯ made of all kinds of wills.


    To put it bluntly, it was very easy for one¡¯s mind to split, and there would be more than ten personalities at the same time.


    These personalities were all created from devouring one¡¯s demons.


    For example, Old Demon Gu, who had been a mature woman when she brought Zhou Feng back to the Tri-Gu Sect, became a middle-aged uncle at the back of the mountain.


    Not only did his will change, but even his body, voice, and organs had changed.


    ¡®In the beginning, it¡¯s a great path to heaven, but it becomes a narrow path as one progresses?¡¯


    Zhou Feng once again experienced the dangers of the demonic cultivation method.


    Indeed! This demonic cultivation method progressed fast enough, and every time it devoured one¡¯s demons, it was a huge improvement. It could even ignore bottlenecks and break through.


    But later on, it was too difficult.


    The most important issue was that there was no turning back.


    As long as one cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, switching to other cultivation techniques was impossible. They could only walk this path to the end.


    The jade slip contained the most important information about the Demon-Devouring Technique. After all, this was Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s inheritance method.


    It also contained some common knowledge of the cultivation world, as well as the methods of pill refinement, tool refinement, and even the Dao of Formations.


    ¡®Nine changes of the Soul Altar realm! Activate the innate divine ability?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the introduction of the Soul Altar realm.


    The Soul Altar realm was divided into nine grades, also known as the nine changes of the Soul Altar realm.


    Every time one broke through in the Soul Altar realm, there would be a mutation. The soul would also undergo a transformation.


    After the nine mutations of the Soul Altar realm, one could attempt to condense the soul because the soul power would already be strong enough.


    One could already condense the soul, and after condensing the soul, one could open up the Purple Mansion. Once the Purple Mansion appeared, they would be able to open up the hidden treasure within their body.


    This so-called treasure was called an innate divine ability. Everyone would be able to obtain it, and everyone¡¯s innate divine ability would be different.


    The difference in talent would begin to be completely revealed at this stage.


    Some people¡¯s innate divine abilities were powerful. For example, their strength would receive a tenfold increase. Such an innate divine ability would definitely be able to crush others.


    However, some people¡¯s innate divine abilities were extremely ordinary, and they could even be said to be completely useless.


    In this way, the gap between ordinary people and geniuses was unimaginably large.


    Moreover, this was also the beginning of one¡¯s cultivation path. This was because some experts¡¯ bloodlines were likely to stimulate their bloodlines when they activated their innate divine abilities.


    Once their bloodlines were stimulated, there was a 90% chance that the innate divine abilities they obtained would be the same as their parents.


    Sometimes, an entire clan¡¯s innate ability would be the same.


    There were too many pieces of information in the jade slip, so Zhou Feng could not finish reading it. He could only choose to read what he urgently needed to understand.


    ¡®I found it! The method to refine the Vital Gu! And the method to nurture the soul artifact!¡¯


    After skimming through the previous information, he finally found the information he wanted to understand.


    The first was the refinement method of the Vital Gu.


    One had to know that up until now, the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body had not acknowledged him as its master. It could break out of his body at any time and place due to other factors, which made Zhou Feng feel extremely insecure.


    After breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, the first thing to do was naturally to refine the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body into the Vital Gu.


    After that, he had to get a soul artifact and place it on the Soul Altar to slowly nurture it.


    At that time, he would also have a soul artifact to use in battle and not be as empty-handed as he was now.


    Also, Zhou Feng could start refining Gu! After reaching the Soul Altar realm, he would also have the capital to refine Gu!

 Chapter 74 - Refining the Vital Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The method of refining Vital Gu!


    This was the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s core method and also the key to the sect¡¯s ability to control Gu.


    There were actually quite a few people who knew how to refine Gu in Southern Border. After all, the environment was too suitable for Gu refinement methods.


    Some villagers even had inherited Gu refinement methods.


    However, only the Tri-Gu Sect was famous for their Gu. The reason was because of this Vital Gu¡¯s refinement method.


    Gus were extremely savage due to the refinement method.


    It did not mean that they would necessarily control them if one fed their Gu.


    The backlash of a Gu was a huge problem.


    Even if the Gu did not retaliate, wanting it to be obedient? This was also very difficult.


    Under such circumstances, the founder of the Tri-Gu Sect created the method to refine the Vital Gu.


    In order to turn a Gu into the Vital Gu, they had to use the power of their divine soul to refine it day and night until the human and the Gu became one.


    In this way, whether it was cultivation or battle, one could gain battle strength out of thin air.


    Take for example a human¡¯s aptitude when it came to absorbing Spiritual Q.


    Some people were born with a slow rate of absorbing Spiritual Qi, but if there was a Vital Gu, it would help such a person absorb Spiritual Qi.


    And the main body would be able to take more time to polish other skills.


    Just like Pill Masters, the Tri-Gu Pill Masters had always been more powerful than ordinary Pill Masters. These Pill Masters all had Vital Gu, so they could constantly refine their skills.


    At the same time, their cultivation levels could not fall behind. One had to know that only high-level cultivators could only cultivate high-level pills.


    The above-mentioned were just the supplementary effects of an ordinary Vital Gu for cultivation.


    In battle, a Vital Gu could also play a role.


    Some special Vital Gus could break out of the body at the later stages and sneak attack the enemy.


    The battle directly changed from 1-vs-1 to 1-vs-2.


    In conclusion, this Vital Gu was the most important entity for the Tri-Gu disciples.


    ¡®Only the power of the divine soul?¡¯


    Zhou Feng carefully read the refining method of the Vital Gu.


    He found that it was quite simple. The main point was that it consumed the power of the divine soul, which was very unfriendly to cultivators who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm.


    The soul power was converted from the spiritual power in one¡¯s body.


    Moreover, the conversion speed was very slow, and it was also affected by one¡¯s Soul Altar grade.


    A Grade-9 Soul Altar like Zhou Feng¡¯s could convert roughly three wisps of soul power per day.


    This was the speed. Even though the spiritual power in his body was abundant, he couldn¡¯t continue to convert it.


    ¡®Soul power, huh? I just happen to have the passive Soul Harvesting¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about it and decided first to refine the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    It wasn¡¯t difficult for Zhou Feng to obtain soul power as he had just obtained a tailor-made passive skill. It was just enough to increase soul power.


    Saying that, Zhou Feng followed the refining method and circulated a wisp of soul power into the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    He silently chanted a mysterious mantra.


    During this process, Zhou Feng took the initiative to transfer his Spiritual Qi into the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s mouth.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu was still as greedy as before. It started to absorb the Spiritual Qi, and its attention was completely attracted to this side.


    Taking this opportunity, he started to use his soul power to invade the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s body.


    Then, he used his soul power to leave his spirit aura on the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s body.


    After many days, his spiritual aura would completely contaminate the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s body.


    This way, the Vital Gu would be considered a preliminary success!


    There were even more mysterious refining methods that exploited sunlight and moonlight. Unfortunately, there were only a few words on this jade slip and no record of the specific refining method.


    Soon, the soul power that Zhou Fengcai had converted was used up.


    If he wanted to continue refining, he would have to convert new wisps of soul power to continue.


    ¡®Next, I will cultivate the Demon-Devouring Technique!¡¯


    After finishing the Vital Gu, he would cultivate the Demon-Devouring Technique and try his best to master the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    After that, he should go and get a soul artifact!


    That¡¯s right! He had killed Jiang Jing and the Yun brothers previously, so he had their storage bags. He was pressed for time before, so he didn¡¯t have time to inspect them.


    Now was a good time to take a look. The Yun brothers probably didn¡¯t have anything good, but Jiang Jing might!


    After all, Jiang Jing was a serious Soul Altar cultivator, and he had heard that Jiang Jing had been gathering materials to forge a soul artifact previously.


    Wouldn¡¯t that be a great advantage for him?


    Zhou Feng first opened the storage bags of the Yun brothers and carefully rechecked them.


    Previously, he had only glanced at them briefly. Now that he had the time, he had to take a good look.


    ¡®As expected, there aren¡¯t any good things!¡¯


    The storage bags were basically filled with miscellaneous items, and he didn¡¯t recognize most of them. But his intuition told him that there weren¡¯t any good things.


    Next, he opened Jiang Jing¡¯s storage bag.


    ¡®Is this the forging method of soul artifacts? I can take a look!¡¯


    This time, Zhou Feng found a book that recorded the forging method in Jiang Jing¡¯s storage bag.


    The name of this book was the Method of Smelting!


    After reading through the whole book, this so-called Method of Smelting was to forcefully smelt all kinds of ores together and then smelt them over and over again.


    After the smelting was completed, the smelting process must be repeated, and it must be supplemented by the power of blood and the soul. The smelting must be carried out until a piece of metal with spirituality was forged.


    Finally, it should be nurtured on the Soul Altar and undergo a slow transformation.


    Even with Zhou Feng¡¯s insight, he could tell that this smelting method did not seem to be very brilliant.


    Many of the descriptions in this book were very rough, and there were even some specific details that were not included.


    ¡®This¡­ didn¡¯t divulge what kind of ore should be used!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt a bit of a headache. Why did it seem so unreliable?


    However, Jiang Jing was only a cultivator who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm. It was already very good that he had this kind of weapon-refining method.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect to obtain any high-level weapon refining method.


    There were still some ores that Jiang Jing had collected in the storage bag. Zhou Feng didn¡¯t recognize any of these ores.


    ¡®Forget it! In any case, this is all for nothing! Why not go and refine a soul artifact by myself?


    ¡®Perhaps I could also use this refining method to get an Artifact Refiner to refine a soul artifact for me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that he could go to the main peak to take a look.


    Speaking of which, advancing to the Soul Altar realm should have a lot of benefits!


    Moreover, he might be able to communicate with other Soul Altar cultivators.


    The disadvantages of cultivating alone were too great. Cultivating alone was not enough; proper communication was vital.


    ¡®And my current physical condition! There should be a way to resolve it!¡¯


    At this time, Zhou Feng thought of the internal injuries all over his body. These were the consequences of cultivating alone.


    If he hadn¡¯t checked his body¡¯s condition, he wouldn¡¯t have even noticed..

 Chapter 75 - Ready to Kill!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng left Bitter Bamboo Peak and came to the Earth-Fire Cave on the main peak.


    ¡®Is this the Earth-Fire Cave?¡¯


    This was the place where the Tri-Gu Sect specialized in forging artifacts. It was said that the Sect Leader had asked a Formation Master to set up an Earth-Fire Formation here.


    Some ores could be smelted with the help of the Earth-Fire Formation.


    Moreover, only Soul Altar cultivators could enter and exit this place.


    Ordinary inner disciples could not enter or leave this place.


    It was worth mentioning that Zhou Feng had already automatically become a true disciple and had many privileges.


    One could automatically become a so-called true disciple as long as they successfully broke through to the Soul Altar realm.


    However, this new true disciple was really shabby and had received almost no benefits. There weren¡¯t even many people who knew about it. It could be said that Zhou Feng was the most low-key true disciple of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Just like that, he had broken through without a sound.


    ¡®So hot!¡¯


    Just as he reached the entrance of the Earth-Fire Cave, a wave of heat instantly assaulted him.


    If he didn¡¯t use spiritual power to protect his body, he would probably turn into dried meat in no time due to the temperature!


    As he walked into the Earth-Fire Cave, ¡®ding¡¯ sounds began to ring out.


    Numerous people were hammering things inside.


    However, there weren¡¯t many Soul Altar cultivators. These people were all sweating profusely, their upper bodies naked, and their skin completely red from the heatwave.


    The most eye-catching thing was the chains on their necks.


    ¡°Eh? Someone from the sect broke through to the Soul Altar realm again? I¡¯ve never seen him before!¡±


    A short white-bearded old man walked out.


    This old man was also topless. Although he was short, his dragon-like muscles were slightly eye-catching.


    ¡°Do you want to borrow the Earth Fire?¡±


    Grandmaster Bai held a huge hammer and looked at Zhou Feng curiously. This kid in front of him was really a little strange.


    From the aura, it seemed like he had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm, but he could actually smell traces of danger from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    A person who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm could threaten him?


    Secondly, he could smell the aura of the Demon-Devouring Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s body even with his eyes closed.


    But the strange thing was, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes actually didn¡¯t have that kind of crazy appetite!


    Those Bitter Bamboo lunatics couldn¡¯t have such clear and calm eyes.


    It was really strange!


    ¡°Yes! I¡¯m here to borrow the Earth Fire!¡±


    Zhou Feng had already done his homework. The Earth-Fire Cave was open to true disciples, and they only needed to pay Spirit Stones to use the Earth Fire here.


    He had already stopped thinking about buying a soul artifact.


    Buying a soul artifact not only required a huge amount of Spirit Stones but also required the consumption of sect merit points to be able to buy it.


    Because of his cultivation, he did not have many Spirit Stones left. As for sect merit points, he did not have any at all. After all, the previous mission could not be considered complete.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng wanted to rely on the smelting method that he had obtained previously to make up for it by forging a half-soul artifact.


    ¡°10 Spirit Stones! One day¡¯s time!¡±


    ¡°No problem!¡±


    Although it was a little expensive, Zhou Feng was still able to accept it reluctantly.


    After paying the Spirit Stones, Grandmaster Bai didn¡¯t stay there any longer and left in a hurry.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t mind and prepared to use the Earth Fire here to melt all the ores in his storage bag.


    At this time, the true disciples of each peak also learned that the sect had an additional Soul Altar cultivator.


    ¡°When did this happen? Why did someone suddenly break through?¡±


    ¡°Those inner disciples who are the focus of attention haven¡¯t broken through?¡±


    ¡°I heard that he¡¯s from Bitter Bamboo Peak, and he¡¯s also the disciple of the Grand Elder!¡±


    ¡°Bitter Bamboo Peak? Then¡­ Do we need to rope him in?¡±


    ¡°We can try. Now is the time for our two factions to compete. We can¡¯t let a Soul Altar cultivator join the other side!¡±


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t joined the Tri-Gu Sect for long, so he didn¡¯t know some of the sect¡¯s internal information.


    In fact, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s internal strife was no laughing matter.


    The current Sect Leader was heavily injured, so the Ice Spirit Gu branch could no longer suppress the other two factions.


    What¡¯s worse, the Sect Leader had no male successor, only a daughter who was usually in seclusion.


    Thus, the Bloodthirsty and Penta-Poison factions began to compete over the Sect Leader¡¯s daughter.


    Both factions hoped for a marriage with the Sect Leader¡¯s daughter and then obtain the Sect Leader¡¯s position.


    And the only ones who were qualified to marry the Sect Leader¡¯s daughter were the true disciples.


    Now that Zhou Feng had broken through to the Soul Altar realm, he could be considered qualified. Therefore, many people wanted to rope him in.


    After all, Soul Altar cultivators were no longer considered cannon fodder. It could be considered to have a certain amount of weight and could not be ignored like inner disciples.


    Zhou Feng did not know anything about the sect that was already surging with undercurrents. At present, he was focused on smelting all the ores.


    ¡°The fire can be a little bigger!¡±


    Zhou Feng continued to increase the output of his spiritual power, causing the Earth Fire to burn even more fiercely.


    Under the support of the Earth Fire, all the ores were melted into a lump of molten iron.


    Taking this opportunity, Zhou Feng tried to use his soul power to carve two solid and sharp symbols on it.


    It was his first time forging, so he was extremely unskilled.


    Anyway, there were a lot of mistakes, but he didn¡¯t care too much.


    Instead, he poured all the molten iron into the mold.


    ¡°It seems to be a little insufficient¡­¡±


    After pouring it into the mold, Zhou Feng found that the molten iron seemed to be a little insufficient.


    In the end, he could only settle for the second-best and shorten the blade.


    Originally, he wanted to forge a Tang blade, but now it seemed that he could only forge a splitting ax!


    Cooling!


    Imprinting!


    ¡­


    After some operation, a brand new splitting ax appeared.


    It was mixed with unknown ores and forged by smelting.


    The appearance of this splitting ax was similar to an ordinary splitting ax, but the trace of spirituality still proved that this was not an ordinary splitting ax.


    ¡°Is this considered a success?¡±


    Zhou Feng tried to pour Spiritual Qi into this splitting ax and found that it could perfectly withstand his Spiritual Qi.


    Then, he tried to put the splitting ax on the Soul Altar to nurture it.


    He succeeded!


    It could be said that he had forged a soul artifact.


    However, this soul artifact didn¡¯t have any special functions. It was just stronger and sharper than ordinary artifacts.


    This couldn¡¯t even be called a soul artifact. In the eyes of any Artifact Refiner, such an artifact was a waste.


    However, Zhou Feng was very content. After all, he didn¡¯t know how to refine artifacts.


    Being able to store it in the Soul Altar was already considered not bad.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t pursue perfection. He only pursued having such a half-soul artifact in his hands.


    His attacking methods had increased by another level. His battle prowess had increased by a little.


    ¡°Then the preparation work is almost done!¡±


    The reason Zhou Feng did all this was actually to trigger the passive Soul Harvesting better.


    The method to increase one¡¯s Soul Altar grade was pretty simple¡ªone had to have enough soul power to transform their Soul Altar.


    At this stage, an ordinary person could only slowly grind through.


    If one¡¯s aptitude was good, perhaps the speed of transforming spiritual power would be faster.


    But when it came to true disciples, consuming pills was the mainstream.


    There were all kinds of pills, as well as auxiliary artifacts that could assist in cultivation.


    However, Zhou Feng did not need them. Because of the passive Soul Harvesting, he only needed to trigger this skill to increase his soul power.


    In other words, his breakthrough method would be to trigger Soul Harvesting instead of cultivating slowly.


    Triggering Soul Harvesting was equivalent to hunting down cultivators.


    To put it simply, he would kill and level up!


    Since Zhou Feng had chosen the path of slaughter to increase his power, he naturally needed to make the necessary preparations, such as boosting his battle prowess!


    ¡®No one seems to care about killing here anyway!¡¯


    Zhou Feng recalled his experiences.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was really disgusting!

 Chapter 76 - I was Poisoned?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Where should I start?¡¯


    Zhou Feng walked out of the Earth-Fire Cave and slowly walked toward the mountainside market.


    The passive Soul Harvesting was definitely going to be slowly stacked.


    But how to start was very particular.


    Even though the Tri-Gu Sect was a demonic sect, casual killing was definitely impossible.


    The inner sect may be extremely cruel and killing each other was not strange, but one would easily be noticed if they killed wantonly.


    At present, Zhou Feng was only a Grade-9 Soul Altar cultivator.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! Is It really you?¡±


    Just as he was thinking of how to stack the layers of souls, a fragrant wind blew in his face.


    Zhou Feng raised his head and saw that it was Liu Yan.


    She was not much different from before. Her thin gauze clothes covered her entire body, exposing her smooth and delicate skin, while her pretty face caused the surrounding people to lose their color slightly.


    ¡®9th Level of Qi Condensation¡­ She hasn¡¯t broken through to the Soul Altar realm yet?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw Liu Yan at this time, he was no longer as powerless as before.


    He recalled the first time he had met Liu Yan and the invisible pressure that had made his entire body tense up.


    But now that he met her again, he had already broken through to the Soul Altar realm.


    On the other hand, Liu Yan was still stagnant, only at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    ¡°Where did you go? I heard that some strange things happened on Bitter Bamboo Peak. Do you really possess a spiritual artifact that assists in cultivation?¡±


    Liu Yan took two steps forward, and the two of them were almost stuck together.


    Zhou Feng could even feel Liu Yan¡¯s breath.


    Even at such a close distance, Liu Yan¡¯s skin was flawless.


    It was like a piece of beautiful jade, completely smooth.


    At that moment, a hint of charm crept up between Liu Yan¡¯s brows while an extremely faint fragrance slowly spread out.


    ¡®This time, I can¡¯t miss this opportunity!¡¯


    Looking at the expressionless Zhou Feng, Liu Yan was somewhat proud. She didn¡¯t expect actually to meet Zhou Feng here. It just so happened that no one around could use the Love Flower Poison!


    Zhao Wu had deliberately been spreading rumors in the inner sect that Zhou Feng possessed a spiritual artifact.


    Now, there were quite a number of people in the inner sect looking for Zhou Feng.


    At present, many people, including Liu Yan, had the impression that Zhou Feng was an ordinary inner disciple at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    As for Zhou Feng going out on a sect mission and successfully breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, this matter was not known.


    However, the fact that Zhou Feng became the Grand Elder¡¯s disciple was well-known in the inner sect. After all, Old Demon Gu had killed the main peak¡¯s Old Niu on the spot, causing quite a stir.


    ¡°I also heard that you have become the Grand Elder¡¯s disciple! Is it true?¡±


    Liu Yan slowly extended her delicate hand and held Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand.


    At the same time, the Love Gu in Liu Yan¡¯s body began to release aphrodisiac gas.


    ¡°Get out of the way!¡± Zhou Feng shook off Liu Yan¡¯s hand, his tone bitingly cold.


    Liu Yan did not show a trace of shock on her face when he rejected her so coldly. Instead, she caressed the gauze on her body gently. Her movements were extremely enchanting, like a blooming flower waiting to be picked by others.


    ¡°I know what you¡¯re thinking! Aren¡¯t you just afraid that I am a poisonous flower with thorns?¡±


    Liu Yan was extremely familiar with Zhou Feng¡¯s behavior.


    This was because the stinky men who had prostrated themselves before her would always have this expression in the beginning.


    The way the Tri-Gu Sect nurtured their disciples was destined to make all the disciples extremely wary.


    However, Liu Yan was not worried at all. Zhou Feng had already been poisoned by the Love Flower Poison and had also inhaled the Love Gu¡¯s aphrodisiac gas.


    The Love Flower Poison was a peculiar poison, but it could also be said that it was not a poison.


    This was because the Love Flower Poison did not harm the body in the slightest, nor did it have much of a hallucinogenic effect on the mind. The only effect of this poison was to stimulate one¡¯s feelings of courtship.


    Courtship was an instinct that every living creature had, and this poison utilized this very instinct. It was able to guide and strengthen the feelings of courtship.


    At this time, in coordination with the Love Gu¡¯s aphrodisiac gas, even a cautious person would easily lower their vigilance.


    ¡°You might not know that the Gu in my body is called the Love Gu. To further transform, I need to find happiness with different men!¡±


    Liu Yan started her speech.


    She had come up with this speech herself.


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t misread! Liu Yan had even come up with a speech!


    ¡°¡­Why don¡¯t you have fun with me for one night? When the sun rises tomorrow, you can forget everything.¡±


    Liu Yan started to move again, her slender fingers slowly caressing Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    Even though her actions were frivolous and flirtatious, they were extremely pure in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    It was as if her first love could not suppress the waves in her heart and slowly raised her hand to caress her own body.


    When things progressed to this stage, all men would normally start to struggle.


    They could have a night of fun! And they would not have to take responsibility after the deed was done? They would not have any burdens?


    The opposite party was still such an exquisite beauty. If one didn¡¯t agree to it, they would be too much of a beast!


    According to the normal procedure, Liu Yan would only need to caress herself a few more times, and the other party would definitely fall for her.


    This was also why many genius inner disciples didn¡¯t dare to have too much contact with Liu Yan. If they were careless, they would fall into a trap!


    Once you were possessed and listened to Liu Yan¡¯s words, then the consequences would be extremely tragic. Here, one only needed to mention the current situation of Liu Yan¡¯s previous dao partner to understand.


    They could not even find a piece of Liu Yan¡¯s previous dao partner now. He had even been shouting Liu Yan¡¯s nickname in glee before his death.


    ¡®Poisoned? How is this possible!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt his entire body was heating up while a desire was magnified.


    His first thought was that he was poisoned, but he was immune to the poison.


    How could he be poisoned? Was his Poison Immunity ineffective?


    After all, the passive description of Poison Immunity stated that he was not immune to all poisons.


    ¡®Was it that faint fragrance just now?¡¯


    Zhou Feng recalled that when Liu Yan had approached him, he took a whiff of a faint body fragrance.


    That shouldn¡¯t be her fragrance, but a poison!


    Liu Yan noticed that Zhou Feng was still unresponsive, but she wasn¡¯t anxious.


    This kind of thing couldn¡¯t be too proactive. Even with the Love Flower Poison¡¯s help, being too proactive would be very demeaning.


    Liu Yan was extremely clear about a man¡¯s psychology.


    ¡°Sigh¡­ Since you¡¯re not willing, then there¡¯s no chance! You didn¡¯t think what I said just now was true, right?¡±


    Liu Yan changed tactics in an instant.


    The pure and lustful facade was replaced by a playful one.


    Under the enhancement of the Love Flower Poison and the Love Gu¡¯s aphrodisiac gas, most people might really think that Liu Yan was joking just now.


    But Zhou Feng was certain that he had just been poisoned.


    Zhou Feng had been a little careless. He had been under the impression that his Poison Immunity could neutralize all poisons, but it was weak against this kind of poison.


    Now, he felt as if something in his heart had been stirred up, and he needed to pour out this emotion..

 Chapter 77 - Death!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng quietly moved the splitting ax that he kept in his Soul Altar. His voice was a little cold. ¡°Antidote!¡±


    ¡°What? What Antidote?¡± Liu Yan was shocked. She did not expect Zhou Feng to be able to detect the Love Flower Poison. However, she would definitely not admit it.


    Logically speaking, after an ordinary person was poisoned by the Love Flower Poison, coupled with the presence of such a great beauty in front of them, they would blame the changes in their bodies on themselves and would not think of other aspects.


    ¡°Could it be that you want to slander me? I got it! You men have devious hearts and know how to speak eloquently!¡±


    Liu Yan pouted slightly and acted as if he had wronged her.


    It had to be said that Liu Yan¡¯s degree was very well controlled. It would not make people feel that it was a little pretentious, but it would also show that she was innocent.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body immediately erupted with spiritual power, and the splitting ax instantly appeared in his hand.


    This was the first time he erupted with all his strength after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm.


    Unlike before, this time, the spiritual power in his body was guided by the power of his soul.


    Not only was it more smooth to circulate the spiritual power, but it was also able to gather all the power together.


    When one was in the Qi Condensation realm, the eruption of spiritual power was like a ball of cotton that was loose and powerless.


    However, when one broke through to the Soul Altar realm, all of their spiritual power was bound to a single point, and the cultivator¡¯s explosive power increased by several folds.


    A massive amount of spiritual power was poured into the splitting ax in his hand.


    ¡°You!¡± Liu Yan had not expected Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden outburst.


    The Love Gu in her body also sensed the danger and started to erupt with all its strength. In such a desperate moment, even the gauze clothes on Liu Yan¡¯s body were shattered.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng did not show any mercy at all.


    A head was instantly chopped off.


    Liu Yan¡¯s resistance did not have the slightest effect.


    ¡°S-Soul Altar realm!?¡±


    In the instant that the head flew out, Liu Yan finally sensed Zhou Feng¡¯s realm.


    ¡®How could it be!? He broke through to the Soul Altar realm?


    ¡®Didn¡¯t Zhou Feng break through to the Qi Condensation realm previously? And where did the Spirit Nurturing Pill that assists the breakthrough to the Soul Altar realm come from!?


    ¡®From a mortal to a Soul Altar cultivator in less than a year!?¡¯


    Liu Yan forever sank into the darkness with her many unanswered questions.


    This time, Zhou Feng finally experienced the thrill of crushing someone weaker than him.


    Between the Soul Altar realm and the Qi Condensation realm, the strength of both sides was extremely unequal.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng was suspected of launching a sneak attack, and then there were all sorts of additional passive skills.


    Two passive skills had assisted that attack just now¡ªAura Blade and Armor Piercing Spear.


    Therefore, Liu Yan¡¯s death was not unjustified.


    ¡®I¡¯ve collected a soul!¡¯


    The moment Liu Yan died, the passive Soul Harvesting was triggered!


    The feedback was also very intuitive. A wisp of soul power appeared out of thin air in Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar.


    ¡®I¡¯m really afraid that I wouldn¡¯t be able to suppress the urge later!¡¯


    He glanced at Liu Yan on the ground. Her jade-like body was really hard to resist.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had killed Liu Yan before he had done the deed!


    Since he could not resist the temptation, he could only eliminate the temptation!


    If he couldn¡¯t solve the problem, he could exterminate the person who caused it.


    Liu Yan didn¡¯t expect to die here.


    She still had a lot of things to accomplish!


    She had almost saved up enough resources to exchange for the Spirit Nurturing Pill.


    In Liu Yan¡¯s eyes, all men were just her playthings.


    Men were like dogs that couldn¡¯t change their habits. Although she would reveal parts of her body, she would be reluctant to do it.


    ¡®A strand of soul power was actually added! It¡¯s even¡­ permanent!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng once again experienced the Gold passive skills¡¯ power.


    The passive Soul Harvesting could directly increase the upper limit of his soul power after successfully collecting a soul!


    In other words, after this strand of soul power was consumed, it could quickly recover.


    Zhou Feng already felt that his Soul Altar had begun to transform!


    He believed that as long as he collected a few more souls, his Soul Altar would break through to Grade-8 in no time.


    ¡®Is this the feeling of hacking?¡¯


    At that moment, he finally experienced what it felt like to hack.


    As long as he continued to collect souls, then his Soul Altar would be able to break through all the way to Grade-1.


    Zhou Feng stored the splitting ax in his hand back into the Soul Altar and slowly nurtured its spirituality.


    Then, he took Liu Yan¡¯s storage bag and dug a hole to bury Liu Yan¡¯s body.


    He seemed to be extremely skilled in the whole process because he had done this many times.


    One had to know that he was the one who had buried all the people on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    He opened Liu Yan¡¯s storage bag and found that there were not many things inside. Basically, there were some bottles and jars, as well as some flowers and plants.


    Zhou Feng did not recognize any of them, but it did not matter. He planned to use his Level-2 Gluttony to passively devour these things and slowly convert them into Spiritual Qi.


    In any case, he would not waste them.


    At that moment, he also remembered that he seemed to have an enemy in the inner sect.


    Zhao Wu! This person who had a grudge with him in the outer sect seemed to be living quite well recently.


    If he remembered correctly, a kind of organization was behind Zhao Wu.


    ¡®It just so happens that it¡¯s an enemy! Then there¡¯s a reason to make a move!¡¯


    After Zhou Feng finished dealing with Liu Yan¡¯s corpse, he glanced at the location of the mountainside market.


    There was another shop in the mountainside market that was under his protection, so he should go and take a look.


    Perhaps, he had experienced too much, so he was extremely calm throughout the entire process, without the slightest expression on his face.


    ¡­


    In the mountainside market, the Qian family¡¯s shop was not having an easy time.


    The main reason was that Zhou Feng had disappeared for a period of time, and the inner disciples had been spreading the news that Zhou Feng possessed a spiritual artifact.


    Therefore, many people would cause trouble at the Qian family¡¯s shop.


    For the sake of safety, the father-and-daughter duo had already tried their best to be careful.


    They had to abandon many business avenues, and in addition, they had to save up money to pay protection fees to Zhou Feng.


    Qian Shang¡¯s hair was almost white these days!


    ¡°Again! Those people are here again! My daughter! What should we do!¡±


    Looking at the people standing in front of the shop, Qian Shang could not help but sigh again.


    How could people do business with these people blocking the way?


    However, these people were backed by Young Master Zhao Wu, whose backer was the huge Flying Eagle Society.


    ¡°No rush!¡±


    Compared to Qian Shang, Qian Qianqian was extremely calm. Her expression was indifferent as she stroked the little Treasure Mouse in her hand.


    ¡°No rush? There is no rush!?¡±


    Looking at his daughter¡¯s calm expression, Qian Shang felt helpless.


    At this rate, they wouldn¡¯t even have the capital to survive!


    How could they not be in a rush!? Even if Young Master Zhou Feng came out again, so what?


    Now, the entire inner sect was looking for him. There were already several 9th Level Qi Condensation cultivators in the Flying Eagle Society alone. They had even heard that Young Master Zhao Wu was about to break through to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    Previously, Qian Shang had been under the impression that his investment had succeeded, but he did not expect such a huge reversal to happen.


    To put it bluntly, Zhou Feng was not their big backer but a jinx.


    Of course, this merchant only complained in his heart.


    No matter what, Zhou Feng was also at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.. Squashing him to death was like squashing an ant!

 Chapter 78 - Packing up and Running away?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Someone is causing trouble?¡¯


    Zhou Feng reached the shop of the merchant under his wing. He took a glance and noticed that some people were standing guard in front of the merchant¡¯s shop.


    Moreover, they would drive away passersby from time to time, preventing them from approaching the shop.


    He frowned and glanced at the sign on the shop¡¯s external wall.


    It was still there¡ªhis name was written on it!


    ¡®Have I been too low-key?¡¯


    Zhou Feng walked to the door of the shop silently.


    Someone shouted at him as soon as he appeared, telling him to leave quickly. ¡°Hey! You¡ª¡±


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng chopped off the head of that person with a blade before he could finish.


    It was neat and clean! There was not the slightest hint of sloppiness!


    Zhou Feng did not even have the intention to talk to these people. There was nothing much to say to these people. After all, they were just some lackeys.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    ¡°You dare to kill people in the market!?¡±


    ¡°Do you know that we are from the Flying Eagle Society? You¡­ You¡­¡±


    Such a bloody scene instantly caused a wave of screams.


    Although the remaining lackeys were shocked, they did not forget to threaten Zhou Feng.


    Their confidence grew as they spoke. This was because killing was basically not allowed in the market. Once someone dared to be presumptuous here, the patrolling disciples would quickly arrive.


    In addition, they were from the Flying Eagle Society.


    Although the Flying Eagle Society did not have absolute authority in the inner sect, it was still a large force. Any inner sect disciple who wanted to touch the Flying Eagle Society would have to think twice.


    ¡®Flying Eagle Society?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attention shifted back from the skill panel upon hearing this familiar name.


    The person he had just killed did not trigger his Soul Harvesting. He did not know what the probability of triggering the Soul Harvesting was.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    He did not explain too much and just directly started killing.


    Under the suppression of their realms, the people blocking the entrance didn¡¯t have the strength to fight back.


    Qi Condensation realm? Had it been a few months ago, Zhou Feng might have had to waste some time.


    But now, it was effortless.


    Zhou Feng only managed to collect one soul after killing six people.


    ¡®Is this due to the strength difference?¡¯


    Zhou Feng speculated that Soul Harvesting¡¯s success rate should be related to the opponent¡¯s realm.


    The success rate should be relatively low for a small fry like this. At the very least, the opponent should be at the level of Liu Yan in order to increase the probability of triggering Soul Harvesting.


    Zhou Feng was still very calm. Everything in front of him did not seem to have much effect on him.


    Moreover, the heat from before had also subsided quite a bit, meaning the Love Flower Poison¡¯s effect had ended.


    The Love Flower Poison was a strange poison that could stimulate one¡¯s desire, but it could only last for a certain period. After the effect of the poison wore off, the affected party would recover.


    Zhou Feng was able to remain calm, but the others had long been scared silly.


    When had such a thing ever happened here?


    A single person had managed to torture and kill Tri-Gu disciples in broad daylight!


    ¡°Crazy! This is simply crazy! Run!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t stay here! Be careful not to be implicated!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Looking at the scattered corpses, the onlookers immediately fled.


    Qian Shang had also heard the commotion outside and could not help but poke his head out to take a look.


    ¡°Oh my God!¡±


    The bright red scene in front of him almost scared Qian Shang to the point of peeing.


    Six corpses were lying on the ground, and no one knew where their heads had flown to.


    This was a habit of Zhou Feng, cutting off the enemy¡¯s head.


    At first, it was to prevent the enemy from turning into a zombie. There would be no need to go to the trouble of cutting off the enemy¡¯s head later.


    At some point, this turned into a habit, and it perfectly matched with Zhou Feng¡¯s splitting ax now.


    ¡°This¡­ This is Young Master Zhou Feng!?¡±


    Qian Shang had been prepared to take his daughter and run away, but fortunately, he saw Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng walked past the corpses and stood in front of Qian Shang. ¡°Tell me, who has been causing trouble for you during the period I was away?¡± he asked.


    Qian Shang¡¯s legs turned into jelly again thanks to his bloodthirsty aura.


    Zhou Feng was simply too terrifying. Just the aura he exuded was enough to make one¡¯s heart tremble.


    ¡°I¡­ I¡­ I¡­¡± Qian Shang started to stutter in his nervousness.


    Zhou Feng looked at the nervous Qian Shang and tried his best to look gentle. ¡°Is it the Flying Eagle Society? Do you know the main members of the Flying Eagle Society?¡±


    Qian Shang calmed down and tried to persuade Zhou Feng to lay low upon noticing his tone. It was as if he wanted to cause trouble to the Flying Eagle Society.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s the Flying Eagle Society! Young Master Zhou Feng, why don¡¯t you stay out of the limelight for a while? The Flying Eagle Society is not easy to deal with!


    ¡°Moreover, you are in the market¡­¡±


    In Qian Shang¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng had committed a major crime. He had actually dared to kill people in the market, ones affiliated with the Flying Eagle Society even!


    Wasn¡¯t this akin to implicating others!?


    Zhou Feng might be fine after offending the Flying Eagle Society. After all, he was also an inner Tri-Gu disciple. However, an outsider like Qian Shang would definitely suffer miserably.


    In Qian Shang¡¯s mind, he had already tacitly agreed that Zhou Feng could not defeat the Flying Eagle Society, which was why he thought this way.


    From a normal person¡¯s perspective, that was indeed the case.


    Zhou Feng was on his own, while the Flying Eagle Society was an organization, which an Elder seemingly backed.


    Zhou Feng might have a chance if he could break through to the Soul Altar realm, but how could that be possible?


    Qian Shang was well aware of Zhou Feng¡¯s non-existent background. To be able to break through to the 9th Level of Qi Condensation within a few months was already a miracle.


    As for Zhou Feng breaking through to the Soul Altar realm during the period of his disappearance? Don¡¯t joke around!


    ¡°Sigh¡­¡±


    The moment he thought of having to bring his daughter into exile again, Qian Shang¡¯s face turned into a bitter gourd.


    Zhou Feng looked at the bitter-looking Qian Shang and was rendered speechless.


    Not many people seemed to know that he had broken through to the Soul Altar realm. Qian Shang¡¯s actions would be correct if Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation was only at the 9th Level of Qi Condensation.


    Still, the problem was that Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡°The Flying Eagle Society¡­ They have no Soul Altar cultivators, but a true disciple is backing them. I heard it¡¯s an old true disciple!


    ¡°Nevertheless, they have a total of five 9th Level of Qi Condensation inner disciples, and they are all geniuses!


    ¡°One more thing, the Flying Eagle Society doesn¡¯t have an Elder as their backer! The rumors outside are just rumors.¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to speak about his cultivation level, a female voice slowly divulged some information about the Flying Eagle Society.


    ¡°Good girl! You¡­¡±


    Qian Shang was a little puzzled when he heard his daughter¡¯s voice.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. Since he had obtained all the information he wanted, he didn¡¯t plan to stay any longer.


    As long as no Elder was backing the Flying Eagle Society, he would be fine. Zhou Feng was most afraid of confronting a cultivator at the level of an Elder right now.


    Zhou Feng only needed some time to develop with the current speed of collecting souls.


    He would be able to soar to the sky in one go!


    Qian Shang looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s back as he left. For a moment, he was a little confused. What was going on? He did not understand why his daughter would divulge these things to Zhou Feng.


    Shouldn¡¯t he be packing his things and running away now?

 Chapter 79 - Being Followed

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng quickly left the market while pondering over a few things.


    ¡®When did I ever obtain a spiritual artifact? Is someone trying to frame me?¡¯


    He didn¡¯t even have a completely nourished soul artifact, so where had this spiritual-artifact rumor come from?


    The person who had spread this rumor was most likely from the Flying Eagle Society¡ªZhao Wu, to be more precise.


    That was because the only person in the inner sect who had a grudge against him was Zhao Wu.


    The others might have heard of his name, but they had only heard of him.


    Zhou Feng had been spending most of his time on Bitter Bamboo Peak. No one would be so stupid as to take the initiative to cause trouble without a grudge.


    Therefore, the person who had spread this rumor was most likely Zhao Wu.


    ¡®Spiritual artifact, eh? This seems to be a good excuse!¡¯


    The rumor that he had a spiritual artifact suddenly gave him an idea. That was how he would make people continuously send themselves to his door!


    Zhou Feng wanted to collect souls passively, so he was destined to kill.


    But as mentioned before, he couldn¡¯t just walk up to someone¡¯s door and kill like a madman.


    Then, why not let others send themselves to his door?


    A spiritual artifact! This was the perfect excuse.


    Coincidentally, he had something here that could pass off as a spiritual artifact.


    Zhou Feng rummaged through his storage bag for a while and took out the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant.


    He had obtained this when he was in the outer sect, so he couldn¡¯t sense anything special about it at that time.


    However, after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, he could use the power of his Divine Soul to pry into this Blood Cicada Jade Pendant¡¯s secrets.


    In fact, there were no secrets at all. This was not a concealed divine artifact at all.


    It was just a special piece of jade. When worn close to the body, it could collect the Blood Qi that was usually emitted, store it, and slowly channel it back to the wearer.


    Moreover, this channeling effect was most effective when the wearer was in the Body Tempering realm.


    ¡®A spiritual artifact¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng wore the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant around his neck.


    The fact that he had a spiritual artifact was a joke to Soul Altar realm cultivators.


    It would be an exaggeration to say that more than one person in the entire Tri-Gu Sect had a spiritual artifact. As for a person who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm?


    Impossible!


    Therefore, when the true disciples had heard this, they must have definitely smiled lightly.


    As for the inner disciples, many people believed this rumor.


    After all, the sect adopted a kind of imperceptible sealing of cultivation knowledge.


    If Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t obtained the jade slip of inheritance, then he might not know anything. He might even be more ignorant than some inner disciples.


    People with a high cultivation realm seemed to have a tacit understanding with people with a low cultivation realm.


    That was to seal the upper layer of cultivation knowledge.


    Only when one reached this realm would they be qualified to obtain this knowledge.


    Therefore, the lower the cultivation realm, the more foolish and exaggerated things seemed in this world.


    The outer sect¡ªthe Gu Refinement Cave where Zhou Feng had crawled out of¡ªwas such an example.


    Other than doing hard labor and cultivating hard, one could not obtain any information about the outside world. There were only bits and pieces of half-true and half-false information at most.


    ¡®I¡¯m afraid that there are quite a number of people in the inner sect who won¡¯t be able to hold on much longer. These people won¡¯t be able to break through on their own. A spiritual artifact is enough to be their last hope!¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about this matter as he slowly returned to Bitter Bamboo Peak. He planned to rest for a while before going out to take action at night. After all, if he took action at night, the commotion would be smaller, and it would be harder to be discovered.


    To be honest, a thought suddenly arose in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    ¡®If I kill all the inner Tri-Gu disciples, will my Soul Altar break through to a Grade-1 one?¡¯


    He just didn¡¯t know what realm the strongest Tri-Gu expert had reached.


    For the Tri-Gu Sect to be able to dominate this region, the Sect Leader should at least be at the Purple Mansion realm!


    He wondered what it would be like for a Purple Mansion cultivator to fight.


    As he walked, Zhou Feng¡¯s perception told him that someone was following behind him.


    This person was a little far away from him, but Zhou Feng had sensed due to the passive Master Hunter. Although it wasn¡¯t reflected in the data, the 12 points of perception he had gained made it extremely easy for him to detect the situation around him.


    Just like now, the person following him was still a distance away from him.


    Zhou Feng had already sensed him.


    ¡®Who is following me?¡¯


    He thought for a moment and stood at the same spot, waiting for the person following him.


    ¡­


    Han Qi was carrying a Tracking Gu in his hand, and he was traveling leisurely.


    ¡®A small fry who has just broken through to the Soul Altar realm. They actually asked me to rope him in personally. What a waste of time!


    ¡®What kind of person is this? I¡¯m afraid he doesn¡¯t even have a soul artifact right now! Maybe he hasn¡¯t even mastered a dao technique!¡¯


    As a genius disciple of the Penta-Poison Peak, Han Qi actually didn¡¯t think much of Zhou Feng.


    Even though Zhou Feng was also in the Soul Altar realm, this kind of poor Soul Altar realm was actually not much different from the Qi Condensation realm.


    Given the Grand Elder¡¯s personality, he definitely wouldn¡¯t help Zhou Feng in the slightest.


    Perhaps, in the end, Zhou Feng would even end up in the Grand Elder¡¯s belly.


    Now, spending resources to rope in such a person, wasn¡¯t this a waste of resources?


    Even if he was a Soul Altar cultivator, so what? It didn¡¯t affect the situation of fighting for the Sect Leader position at all.


    Han Qi noticed that Zhou Feng had been waiting there, and his tone was extremely frivolous. ¡°Yo! Your senses are pretty good! You can actually sense me!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng finally saw who was following him.


    It was a man of medium build. He looked unexpectedly young, and¡­ did not look like an adult?


    Han Qi was handsome, and his skin was smooth like a 15-year-old youth.


    However, the arrogant look between his brows made people feel a little uncomfortable.


    In layman¡¯s terms, he resembled an arrogant good-looking teenager.


    ¡®Grade-8 Soul Altar realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed Han Qi¡¯s realm and realized that he was actually slightly more powerful than him.


    ¡®How old is he? He actually succeeded in forging a Soul Altar? He looks even younger than Liu Yan!¡¯


    This was probably the first genuine genius he had encountered!


    His Battle Instinct was also warning Zhou Feng that the person in front of him was very dangerous.


    Han Qi was displeased as Zhou Feng was standing there in a daze. ¡°Eh? Aren¡¯t you going to say anything?¡±


    Logically speaking, Zhou Feng should at least reply to what he said just now!


    No matter if it were good or bad, there would always be some reaction.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was wooden. He only stared at Han Qi and had no intention of speaking at all.


    Zhou Feng remained silent and circulated his Spiritual Qi, ready to fight at any time.


    ¡°As expected! All Bitter Bamboo disciples are lunatics and idiots! Forget it! I won¡¯t waste any more time!¡±


    Han Qi was also too lazy to pay heed to Zhou Feng¡¯s silence, so he went straight to the point and stated his intentions..

 Chapter 80 - Purple Jade Bell!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Han Qi suppressed the impatience in his heart and explained some things about the Sect Leader position to Zhou Feng. ¡°That¡¯s it! Do you understand?¡±


    This should be the first time Zhou Feng had come into contact with information regarding the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s upper echelon.


    From Han Qi¡¯s description, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s upper echelon seemed to be in a fierce battle.


    The Sect Leader had not made an appearance to take charge for a long time, while the inner sect of the Tri-Gu Sect was empty due to the skirmishes with the other sects.


    Not long ago, they had even sent the First Elder (Grand Elder) to handle some matters.


    Under normal circumstances, the Grand Elder was the most important position in the sect besides the Sect Leader.


    If even the Grand Elder had been forced to go out, one could imagine how lacking the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s high-level combat power was.


    Under such circumstances, a normal sect¡¯s faction might end their infighting and work together to deal with the outside world.


    Unexpectedly, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s factions placed even more importance on fighting amongst themselves in such a situation. It would be even better if they could use other sects to weaken the opposing faction.


    From the way they nurtured their disciples, it could be seen that the Tri-Gu Sect itself was abnormal.


    They had been able to survive purely due to their powerful combatants. After all, the Tri-Gu Soul Altar cultivators were equivalent to two normal Soul Altar cultivators.


    Zhou Feng finally opened his mouth to reply. ¡°So?¡±


    He was very clear about Han Qi¡¯s meaning. It was a question of choosing sides.


    He would have to choose between the Bloodthirsty faction or the Penta-Poison faction.


    Han Qi was representing the Penta-Poison faction.


    Zhou Feng did not want to participate in these battles. Even if he needed a battle team, he could not choose a side at this time.


    One had to know that his master-in-name was the Grand Elder, Old Demon Gu.


    Old Demon Gu should be from the Bloodthirsty faction! Wouldn¡¯t he be courting death if he sided with the Penta-Poison faction?


    ¡°Looks like it¡¯s time for a poor wretch like you to face reality! Even if we are both in the Soul Altar realm, the difference is something you can not imagine!¡±


    Han Qi could no longer tolerate Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude.


    He had already done what needed to be done. Under such circumstances, it should be enough to deal with those old fellows.


    ¡°If you can make me move one step, I¡¯ll consider it your win!¡± Han Qi raised his chin slightly, his eyes revealing disdain.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body suddenly tensed up. As Han Qi¡¯s voice fell, a sense of crisis spread throughout his entire body.


    He subconsciously dodged!


    A venomous black bee silently passed by Zhou Feng¡¯s side like a poisonous needle. The scariest thing was that this entire process did not stir up any ripples. There was no sound at all.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s Battle Instinct had not been triggered, he would not have even noticed it.


    If it were an ordinary person, they would not have thought that Han Qi would suddenly make a move.


    There were no signs at all!


    ¡°You are quite vigilant! You actually managed to evade the Stealth-Venom Gu? Looks like you have some talent after all!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng managed to evade his sneak attack, Han Qi raised his eyebrows.


    This venomous bee was an offense-type Gu Han Qi had refined. The most unique characteristics of the Stealth-Venom Gu were its stealth attacks, breakneck speed, and potent venom.


    When that pair of wings flapped, it was able to eliminate all sound.


    Han Qi had already used the Stealth-Venom Gu to assassinate a few Soul Altar cultivators. There was no lack of old foxes among the assassinated Soul Altar cultivators.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s lips were tightly sealed, not saying a word.


    ¡®Kill!¡¯ he roared angrily in his heart.


    Then, the splitting ax being nurtured in his Soul Altar was immediately summoned.


    An afterimage was left on the spot, and a violent air-piercing sound echoed.


    The ax¡¯s blade was aimed straight at Han Qi¡¯s neck.


    ¡°Tsk! So shabby. Not even a complete soul artifact?¡±


    When Han Qi saw the splitting ax in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand, he couldn¡¯t hold it in anymore and laughed out loud.


    The splitting ax in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand was shabby; it couldn¡¯t even be called a soul artifact. There were only two runes engraved on it.


    When facing Zhou Feng¡¯s attack, Han Qi didn¡¯t even intend to dodge. He just stood there.


    ¡°Dang!¡±


    Then, a small bell slowly floated above Han Qi¡¯s head.


    A purple light curtain hung down from the small bell, enveloping Han Qi completely.


    Compared to the splitting ax in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand, the small bell hovering over Han Qi¡¯s head was a true soul artifact, and it had been nurtured for a long time.


    The entire soul artifact was full of spirituality.


    The small bell¡¯s name was Purple Jade Bell, and it was entirely made of Purple Jade. When it was activated, it could form a light curtain to resist all-round attacks.


    Moreover, it was both an offensive and defensive artifact as it used soundwaves to attack.


    Although such a soul artifact couldn¡¯t be compared to a spiritual artifact, it could still be considered a high-level artifact.


    ¡®Defensive soul artifact?¡¯


    Purple Jade Bell¡¯s rebound force shook Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand until it became somewhat numb.


    Just as Han Qi shook his head and wanted to continue mocking, a trace of extremely sharp blade aura pierced through the Purple Jade Bell.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Han Qi¡¯s pupils slightly shrank.


    This blade aura even penetrated through Han Qi¡¯s protective Spiritual Qi and directly attacked his physical body.


    ¡®Impossible! Such a simple attack? The Purple Jade Bell should have been able to withstand it!¡¯


    Shock! Disbelief!


    Han Qi¡¯s emotions surged into his heart because this was simply impossible!


    ¡®This is¡­ the Armor-Piercing Spear?¡¯


    Zhou Feng reacted immediately. This was the passive Armor-Piercing Spear taking effect!


    Armor-Piercing Spear: Every attack will ignore 1% of the opponent¡¯s defense and directly attack the main body.


    This passive skill had been of little use ever since he obtained it.


    Although this passive skill sounded powerful, he had forgotten about it because it was of little use in actual combat.


    In the face of a weak opponent, he did not even need to use this passive skill to crush them directly.


    And in the face of a strong opponent, this 1% armor-piercing effect was slightly unreliable.


    There was another great limitation¡ªthis passive skill was ineffective against an opponent higher than his own realm.


    But now, it seemed that it was not so useless!


    If he did not have this passive skill, Zhou Feng might really have no way to deal with Han Qi and his Purple Jade Bell.


    His offensive methods were truly lacking against such an all-round defensive soul artifact.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Since the Armor-Piercing Spear was effective, Zhou Feng immediately unleashed his full strength.


    Soon, several demonic avatars appeared while the surroundings became dark.


    This was the first time Zhou Feng was using the Demon-Devouring Battle Art after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm. Its power was at least several times stronger than in the Qi Condensation realm.


    At this time, the few insolent demonic avatars resembled a group of demons dancing wildly.


    The demonic avatars controlled numerous tentacles and crazily smashed them against Han Qi enveloped in the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s light curtain.


    Dang, dang, dang!


    The continuous knocking sounds were incessant.


    Faint black Spiritual Qi filled Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body, while his long black hair danced in the air like wild pythons..

 Chapter 81 - Formation Disk

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had fully circulated his Spiritual Qi after breaking through to the Soul Altar realm.


    He felt that his control over his Spiritual Qi had increased a lot with the divine soul¡¯s assistance.


    This feeling was especially obvious when he used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art.


    The tentacles formed from Spiritual Qi crazily scratched the Purple Jade Bell outside of Han Qi¡¯s body.


    Each attack could penetrate a small part of his protective Spiritual Qi and attack Han Qi¡¯s body.


    Although the armor-piercing attacks were very weak, Han Qi could not withstand the continuous attacks for a long time.


    ¡°Innate DIVINE ability? You actually have an innate DIVINE ability! Your dao bone! I want it!¡±


    This continuous attack finally made Han Qi react, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face!


    There was nothing wrong with the Purple Jade Bell, but Zhou Feng¡¯s attacks were able to bypass the bell.


    There was only one explanation for this¡ªZhou Feng had an innate divine ability!


    Divine ability! Generally speaking, only those who had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm could obtain a divine ability.


    However, there were always some very special beings in this world that could be born with divine abilities.


    Moreover, as one¡¯s realm increased, the power of their divine ability would gradually be released.


    This type of innate divine ability user would have Heaven and Earth symbols on their bones, which was why they were called Dao Bones.


    According to legends, the cultivators of ancient times had discovered the Heaven and Earth symbols on the bones of some demonic beasts.


    In the end, they created the cultivation level of the Divine Ability realm.


    It was precisely because of this that both the demonic beasts and the humans¡¯ Dao Bones were precious.


    Once exposed, even a Purple Mansion cultivator wouldn¡¯t be able to protect them because this signified a divine ability.


    Han Qi suspected that Zhou Feng was a natural-born divine ability user.


    However, only Zhou Feng knew the truth. ¡®What natural-born divine ability? That¡¯s just the passive Armor-Piercing Spear.¡¯


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid you still don¡¯t know what natural-born divine abilities are! Otherwise, you wouldn¡¯t have exposed yours so easily!¡±


    Traces of greed appeared in Han Qi¡¯s eyes.


    To be honest, if Han Qi hadn¡¯t read an ancient book, he wouldn¡¯t have known what a natural ability user was.


    This was luck! He, Han Qi, was indeed blessed by luck!


    To be able to meet a wild natural ability user, such a genius would basically be taken away by those ancient sects once they were born.


    ¡®Natural-born innate ability? Is he referring to my passive skill?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not know what an innate ability user was, but he felt that the way Han Qi looked at him had changed.


    That greedy look was like a burly man looking at a delicate flower after holding back for a few years.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell! Move!¡±


    After suspecting that Zhou Feng was an innate ability user, Han Qi planned to take him down swiftly.


    If something unexpected happened and attracted others, it would be terrible.


    The Purple Jade Bell hovering over Han Qi¡¯s head started to shake slightly.


    A series of soft bell chimes sounded, giving people a strange feeling.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s feeling was the most obvious. He felt that his body had been rubbed more than ten times by a big hand.


    That bell sound also ignored his Demon-Devouring Armor.


    Soundwave attack! It was impossible to defend against!


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was extremely tough¡ªthis was the passive contribution of Old Skin.


    He had constantly been triggering Old Skin, so his body¡¯s strength had risen to a terrifying level. Thus, now that the Purple Jade Bell rang, he could still withstand it.


    What made matters worse was that the Stealth-Venom Gu also launched a sneak attack during the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s soundwave attacks.


    The stealthy sneak attack, coupled with the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s ringing, was a fatal combo!


    ¡®Danger!¡¯


    Zhou Feng once again relied on his Battle Instinct and narrowly evaded the Stealth-Venom Gu¡¯s sneak attack.


    That pitch-black stinger almost stung him.


    ¡®He¡¯s clearly a Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator! The gap is actually so huge?¡¯


    Facing Han Qi¡¯s deadly combo of attacks, Zhou Feng felt exhausted.


    The gap between their cultivation realms was not big, and he even felt that the density of Han Qi¡¯s Spiritual Qi was not even comparable to his own.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Spiritual Qi reserves were like the sea thanks to Level-2 Gluttony¡¯s crazily devouring effect.


    Although Han Qi¡¯s reserves paled in comparison, Zhou Feng was the one being suppressed during this battle.


    ¡®He evaded again?¡¯


    Han Qi was somewhat anxious to see Zhou Feng evade the Stealth-Venom Gu¡¯s sneak attack.


    His opponent was weaker than him, yet why did it feel like he could not take him down in a short period?


    He had the Purple Jade Bell and the Stealth-Venom Gu! He should have defeated an opponent like Zhou Feng!


    ¡®What kind of perception is this? He seems to be able to predict every time?


    ¡®And why is this body so strong? Could he have a Peerless Gu in his body?¡¯


    ¡®¡­¡¯


    Next, Han Qi launched several attacks, but he still could not defeat Zhou Feng.


    This made Han Qi more and more anxious.


    The Stealth-Venom Gu¡¯s sneak attacks were utterly useless!


    The Purple Jade Bell¡¯s attack had some effect at the beginning, causing Zhou Feng to spit out blood and his body to shake.


    However, Zhou Feng still looked like a lively dragon and tiger. It seemed like he could still stall for some time.


    In fact, Zhou Feng himself felt like he was taking too much of a beating!


    His body was extremely sturdy and could withstand attacks. Then there was the passive Self-Healing Constitution, which was automatically triggered when he was injured and began to heal his injuries slowly.


    The most terrifying thing was that every time his injuries became more serious, the passive Unyielding Heart was also triggered.


    Unyielding Heart: The more severe the injury, the better the healing effect.


    Under all these factors, Zhou Feng was akin to an RPG tank player.


    Meanwhile, when he had realized that he couldn¡¯t defeat Han Qi in a short period, he began to accumulate strength secretly.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s plan was simple¡ªhe would first exhaust his opponent and then find an opportunity.


    ¡°Damn it! Heaven-Sealing Formation! Rise!¡±


    The longer Han Qi dragged on, the more uneasy he became. He was afraid that if this dragged on, it would attract others.


    He was also afraid that Zhou Feng would realize that something was wrong and run away.


    Therefore, Han Qi gnashed his teeth and took out a formation disk.


    Formation disk! This was something created by Formation Masters. Compared to formation flags, which required one to set up the formation themselves, the biggest advantage of the formation disk was that it could be released automatically without any operation.


    A Formation Master needed to spend a lot of time and effort to create a formation disk, so even the simplest one was precious.


    The formation disk that Han Qi took out contained a formation known as the Heaven-Sealing Formation.


    This formation was said to be able to seal off an area of heaven and earth, thus concealing it from the heavenly secrets.


    However, in reality, the Heaven-Sealing Formation that Han Qi took out could only seal off the surroundings, preventing Zhou Feng from escaping.


    Moreover, it could only seal off the surroundings for around 10 minutes. When it was attacked, the duration would be even shorter.


    That¡¯s right! Han Qi planned to attack personally.


    The formation disk floated in the air, and a huge formation diagram enveloped Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    In just a few seconds, Zhou Feng found that he seemed to be locked in a cage.


    Han Qi¡¯s body began to emit purple poisonous gas on the other side..

 Chapter 82 - Using Poison against Poison!?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    A purple poisonous gas began to spread inside the Heaven-Sealing Formation.


    And the source of the poisonous gas was Han Qi, or rather the Penta-Poison Gu in his body.


    Due to the Heaven-Sealing Formation, this poisonous gas swiftly blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s vision and corroded his Spiritual Qi.


    ¡°Now, I want to see how long you can last!¡±


    At this time, a green bead on Han Qi¡¯s waist slightly emitted light.


    This faint light isolated all the poisonous gas.


    This was the Verdant Wood Bead, which could be considered as an auxiliary soul artifact. It was different from normal soul artifacts that needed to be placed on the Soul Altar to get nurtured.


    The Verdant Wood Bead did not need to be nurtured on the Soul Altar. The cultivator only needed to wear it on their body for it to have an effect.


    Its greatest function was that it could isolate all poisons, making the holder immune to all poisons.


    Although the Penta-Poison Gu in Han Qi¡¯s body was emitting this poisonous gas, it did not mean that Han Qi was immune to it.


    Those from the Penta-Poison faction would often poison themselves to death.


    Therefore, a soul artifact like the Verdant Wood Bead was a standard item for the Penta-Poison faction.


    ¡®Poison?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart did not waver as the other party was trying to poison him as he had the passive Poison Immunity. Poisons were useless against him.


    Nonetheless, Han Qi¡¯s actions woke him up. He seemed to be able to use poison as well.


    Previously, he had obtained quite a number of poisons from Liu Yan. Well, those should not be considered poisons¡­ It was more apt to call them aphrodisiacs!


    Since not even his Poison Immunity was helpless against some aphrodisiacs, they should also have some effect on Han Qi, right?


    Han Qi probably did not expect Zhou Feng to use aphrodisiacs to restrain him. It was a good thing that Zhou Feng thought of it.


    ¡°Illusion Poison Force!¡±


    Han Qi gathered the Spiritual Qi in his body, and a venomous snake formed from Spiritual Qi appeared in the air and pounced at Zhou Feng!


    Its open mouth gave people a great shock.


    At the same time, the Stealth-Venom Gu quietly began to move, while Han Qi approached Zhou Feng with the Purple Jade Bell hovering over his head.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng finally realized the difference between humans. Sometimes, the difference was even greater than the difference between humans and dogs.


    When facing the fully-armed Han Qi, even if Zhou Feng had all kinds of passive support, he was still a little powerless.


    ¡°Then I can only be more unrestrained!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body moved, using his high perception to evade the Stealth-Venom Gu and Illusion Poison Force attacks continuously.


    In the end, he charged toward Han Qi.


    ¡°I was just waiting for you to go all out!¡±


    Han Qi looked at Zhou Feng, who was charging toward him, directly treating it as his final struggle.


    The Purple Jade Bell above his head started to shake crazily, and its rapid chimes caused Zhou Feng¡¯s chest to feel stifled.


    Surprisingly, the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s soundwave attack somewhat injured Zhou Feng¡¯s ridiculously powerful physical body.


    Zhou Feng managed to rush in front of Han Qi with great difficulty.


    Han Qi¡¯s purple Spiritual Qi condensed into a set of armor, covering his body.


    ¡°You can¡¯t possibly think that my close-quarter combat skills are not good?¡±


    Han Qi rapidly circulated the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi in his body, while his aura suddenly turned cold and brutal, slowly spreading in the surroundings. His fist was like a venomous snake, biting toward Zhou Feng¡¯s chest.


    As for Zhou Feng, he did not dodge. Instead, he took a deep breath and took the punch head-on.


    ¡®This is it!¡¯


    As Zhou Feng took the punch head-on, he seized the opportunity and hurled a pouch full of all kinds of powder at a close distance.


    This was the full stock of aphrodisiac powders in Liu Yan¡¯s storage bag. He actually used them all at once!


    Soon, a cloud of odorless pink and purple powder covered Zhou Feng and Han Qi.


    Zhou Feng had been far away earlier, so he was afraid that Han Qi would use other means to avoid this attack.


    Unfortunately, Han Qi could not avoid it at this distance. Of course, Zhou Feng himself could not avoid it either.


    ¡°This¡­ Are they the aphrodisiacs those old women use!? You!¡±


    At that moment, Han Qi looked at Zhou Feng with a strange gaze.


    Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined that Zhou Feng would actually use aphrodisiacs to fight in such a situation!


    Was he crazy!? Moreover, Zhou Feng himself would be affected.


    At present, the two men were sealed in the Heaven-Sealing Formation.


    The most coincidental thing was that Han Qi had been abstaining from sex for a period of time. The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s situation had been unfavorable all this while, and Han Qi was afraid of being ambushed. Thus, he had chosen to abstain from sex until the situation stabilized.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Zhou Feng also felt that his breathing had become heavier.


    Obviously, his passive Poison Immunity was useless against aphrodisiacs.


    However, his mind was extremely clear, and he relied on the moment when Han Qi was in a daze to body-slam Han Qi.


    Han Qi had yet to return to his senses, so he did not use the Purple Jade Bell to defend himself and was knocked flying.


    Then, Zhou Feng pounced on Han Qi like a ferocious tiger.


    Both sides had inhaled a lot of aphrodisiacs, and they had begun to take effect.


    One had to know that Liu Yan had prepared these aphrodisiacs in order to make Zhou Feng her subordinate. Some of the effects were extremely violent, and just a little dosage of them was powerful enough to ¡®subdue¡¯ any man.


    However, Zhou Feng did not consider this at all and used them all at once.


    In addition, the Heaven-Sealing Formation was in effect, preventing any wastage¡­


    Han Qi felt his blood flowing faster, and an illusion began to appear in front of his eyes.


    The long period of abstinence and the lethal amount of aphrodisiacs made Han Qi feel a little uneasy.


    Similarly, Zhou Feng also felt that something was wrong with himself.


    ¡®I need to speed up!¡¯


    Zhou Feng grabbed Han Qi¡¯s shoulders with both hands and directly opened his mouth.


    He bit Han Qi¡¯s neck and started to shake his head crazily, wanting to tear off the flesh on Han Qi¡¯s neck.


    The huge crisis drove Han Qi crazy. He used all his strength and fought back like a maniac!


    The Stealth-Venom Gu¡¯s stinger stabbed Zhou Feng¡¯s lower back while the Purple Jade Bell shook crazily.


    The fierce counterattack caused Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Armor to shatter, and many of his bones were broken while the bee¡¯s venom seeped into his body.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were bloodshot, like a wild beast that had lost its mind.


    Even though his seven orifices were slowly bleeding and all the bones in his body were about to shatter, he still punched Han Qi¡¯s head, his mouth not relaxing at all.


    Soon, he forcefully tore off a piece of Han Qi¡¯s flesh.


    ¡°No! No! Impossible!¡± Han Qi immediately let out a miserable howl.


    ¡®Am I going to die here? No way! I am the Son of Destiny! How can I die at the hands of this small fry!?¡¯


    ¡°Get lost! Get out of my way!¡±


    The power that a person could release before death was terrifying.


    Han Qi burned all the Spiritual Qi in his body to manipulate the Purple Jade Bell, preparing to smash Zhou Feng¡¯s head with it.


    One had to know that the two were entangled with each other, and the Purple Jade Bell might smash them to death together.


    Still, since things had come to this point, Han Qi couldn¡¯t care so much anymore. Even if they were to die, they would die together!


    ¡°Diamond talisman!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were a bit unfocused, but his mind was still clear. He directly used the diamond talisman to vanquish Han Qi¡¯s thoughts of dying together with him..

 Chapter 83 - Old Demon Gu’s Surprise

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Diamond talisman!¡±


    Zhou Feng activated the diamond talisman that he had been holding tightly, and a golden light barrier instantly enveloped him.


    He blocked the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s attack.


    This was his spoils of war from before, and it was also Jiang Jing¡¯s life-saving trump card.


    Unfortunately, Jiang Jing had underestimated Zhou Feng too much, so he hadn¡¯t used the diamond talisman until the end.


    Thus, it had become Zhou Feng¡¯s trump card.


    After blocking this final counterattack, he immediately summoned his splitting ax and slashed at Han Qi¡¯s neck.


    ¡°AH!¡±


    The intense pain combined with the effects of various aphrodisiacs caused Han Qi to fall into a state of confusion.


    Zhou Feng slashed at his neck continuously, yet Han Qi only let out a few instinctive screams.


    Han Qi really didn¡¯t understand why the final outcome was like this since he had the upper hand. Why was Zhou Feng not poisoned? Could it be that his poisons were fake?


    At that moment, Han Qi¡¯s face was flushed, his mouth was muttering, while his hands were caressing Zhou Feng willfully.


    Liu Yan¡¯s aphrodisiacs were quite fierce. Even a Soul Altar cultivator like Han Qi couldn¡¯t resist.


    ¡®I can¡¯t speak! I get discouraged when I speak!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was hot, but he held back and didn¡¯t speak. He chopped at Han Qi¡¯s neck until it was severed.


    He was finally dead!


    The anger in his heart instantly dissipated upon seeing Han Qi¡¯s head was chopped off.


    Zhou Feng had almost lost himself, but fortunately, he could still barely hold on.


    He took a bunch of pills out of his storage bag and kept stuffing them into his mouth.


    At the same time, he urged the Demon-Devouring Gu to help heal himself.


    After being refined into his Vital Gu, the Demon-Devouring Gu was much more obedient. It was not like before.


    Soon, a torrent of Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi coursed through his body. His Self-Healing Constitution and Unyielding Heart also allowed Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries to recover swiftly. Adding on the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s active cooperation, Zhou Feng soon felt that he could stand up.


    During this period, the Heaven-Sealing Formation¡¯s effect had come to an end.


    Zhou Feng was finally able to take some time to clean the battlefield and check what he had gained.


    When Han Qi died, the Stealth-Venom Gu also lost its lifeforce, and what remained of it now was a carcass. This was a Soul Altar Gu, so it should be worth quite a bit of money.


    Thus, Zhou Feng stored the Stealth-Venom Gu¡¯s carcass first.


    Next was the Purple Jade Bell next to Han Qi¡¯s corpse.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but smile when he saw the Purple Jade Bell. ¡°This is a good thing! It¡¯s both offensive and defensive! It¡¯s also very good-looking!¡±


    Although the price he had to pay during that battle was heavy, it was still worth it. After all, the Purple Jade Bell was a top-grade soul artifact. It was much better than the splitting ax he used.


    ¡°Sigh¡­ Has the medicinal effect not worn off yet?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s nerves relaxed slightly because of the Purple Jade Bell, so the medicinal effect immediately went to his head!


    He had also inhaled quite a lot of the aphrodisiacs. It could be said that his entire body was hot right now, and he had been holding it in.


    The best way to remove the aphrodisiacs¡¯ effects was to release the desire in his heart, but there was nothing else here except for a corpse¡­


    As such, he could only suppress it.


    Holding it in would naturally have serious consequences, but Zhou Feng did not care much. Anyway, he had the Self-Healing Constitution, so he could slowly recover from his injuries. At the same time, he could also trigger Old Skin¡¯s passive effect.


    Speaking of Old Skin, it seemed that he couldn¡¯t improve further after triggering it so many times? Could it be that there was a limit?


    Zhou Feng restrained himself for a long time. After calming down a little, he picked up the Purple Jade Bell.


    At present, the Purple Jade Bell was a little dim, and it exuded the aura of Han Qi¡¯s soul power.


    ¡°It seems I need to place it on the Soul Altar for some time before I can use it!¡±


    Sensing the soul power on the Purple Jade Bell, Zhou Feng felt that it was somewhat troublesome.


    If he wanted to use the Purple Jade Bell, he would need to expend his soul power to wash away Han Qi¡¯s aura and then place it on the Soul Altar to nurture it.


    This meant that he would need to waste a lot of soul power.


    Refining his Vital Gu, increasing his cultivation, and nurturing the Purple Jade Bell alone required a lot of soul power.


    Not to mention he needed soul power for other purposes.


    ¡°I need to rest for a period of time!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that he was a bit too radical, or rather, he was a bit intoxicated.


    At the start, he had planned to pursue the Gu Dao. Why was he becoming more and more extreme?


    Han Qi¡¯s death would definitely cause a storm. After all, compared to ordinary inner disciples, Han Qi was a true disciple of the Soul Altar realm. Judging from his arsenal, someone was definitely backing him.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng needed to hide from the limelight for now.


    ¡®Oh right! I should have collected his soul!¡¯


    At that moment, he thought of the passive Soul Harvesting.


    After slightly sensing the Soul Altar, he discovered that there were a few more wisps of soul power in the Soul Altar.


    When he killed Han Qi, the Soul Harvesting must have been triggered.


    ¡°I should go back to Bitter Bamboo Peak first! It¡¯s too unsafe here!¡±


    Zhou Feng put all the spoils of war into his storage bag and then dragged his body with heavy steps back to Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    If he wanted to avoid the limelight, it was probably better to look for Old Demon Gu.


    No matter what, Old Demon Gu was his nominal disciple.


    Moreover, Old Demon Gu¡¯s Demon-Devouring Seal was now on him, which meant that Zhou Feng was a leek Old Demon Gu was raising.


    Old Demon Gu wouldn¡¯t just watch his leek die, right?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mind was extremely clear at that moment. The first thing he thought of was where to stay out of the limelight.


    He was very clear about his relationship with Old Demon Gu. Because of this, he was 90% sure that Old Demon Gu would definitely help him.


    After a while, Zhou Feng returned to Bitter Bamboo Peak. Then, he went straight to the back of the mountain.


    When he arrived at the back of the mountain, it was still as barren as before.


    ¡°Eh? Interesting!¡±


    A mature female voice entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears before he could speak.


    ¡°Your injuries are really interesting! Is that a mixture of aphrodisiacs? No! There¡¯s more?


    ¡°Are you looking for this young lady?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Old Demon Gu immediately noticed the various aphrodisiacs on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and he sounded slightly surprised.


    But from the smell of blood on his body, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t seem to be gunning for this ¡®young lady¡¯.


    Could it be the work of those old Love Gu ladies?


    ¡°I killed a person!¡±


    Zhou Feng took out the Purple Jade Bell and recounted what had just happened.


    Of course, Zhou Feng could only leave out the part of the so-called innate divine abilities.


    Given Han Qi¡¯s reaction, there so-called innate divine abilities and Dao Bones were like a hot potato. If he told these things to Old Demon Gu, the latter might directly swallow him up.


    ¡°You¡­ killed a Soul Altar disciple?¡±


    Old Demon Gu was astonished and kept silent for a while.


    Before this, Old Demon Gu¡¯s tone toward Zhou Feng was basically indifferent and lazy.


    But after knowing that he had killed Han Qi, he seemed astounded..

 Chapter 84 - A Period of Time for Development

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Old Demon Gu was truly somewhat surprised. After all, given Zhou Feng¡¯s strength, it was impossible for him to defeat any of the true disciples.


    Old Demon Gu still had some understanding over the sect¡¯s true disciples.


    Basically, they were all fully-armed with defensive soul artifacts, and then there were all sorts of talismans and medicinal pills.


    Zhou Feng was merely a poor kid who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm. He didn¡¯t even have the time to familiarize himself with the Soul Altar realm, nor did he have the time to cultivate Soul Altar dao arts.


    ¡®How could this be?¡¯


    ¡°Looks like the secret on your body isn¡¯t simple!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance aroused Old Demon Gu¡¯s interest.


    Although Old Demon Gu knew that Zhou Feng had a secret, he didn¡¯t pay too much attention to it.


    But now that Zhou Feng had killed a true disciple, the secret on his body was definitely not small.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    All the hair on Zhou Feng¡¯s body stood up while a chill coursed through his spine.


    ¡°He actually couldn¡¯t tell? It¡¯s just that his Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi are rich¡­


    ¡°And this injury¡­ He actually survived? And even healed on his own?


    ¡°The body hasn¡¯t properly recuperated, and the circulation of Spiritual Qi isn¡¯t smooth¡­¡±


    Old Demon Gu was now carefully examining Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    A pair of dark-red eyeballs was suspended in front of Zhou Feng, and his irises kept spinning.


    The strange thing was that Old Demon Gu couldn¡¯t see through Zhou Feng¡¯s secret.


    On the contrary, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was in a mess. His meridians were displaced, his acupuncture points were blocked, and there were all kinds of scars in his body.


    His body seemed to have experienced a few ruptures, but they were all very strange and self-healing.


    The Spiritual Qi circulation method was extremely crude, and it seemed like no one had ever taught him.


    This begged the question: how did Zhou Feng manage to kill a true disciple!?


    Even if it was exchanging injuries for injuries, it was impossible!


    ¡®Could it be a legendary battle genius?¡¯


    Old Demon Gu used Demonic Qi to create a demonic avatar.


    The moment this demonic avatar appeared, Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Battle Instinct, coupled with the perception of Master Hunter, detected it behind him.


    ¡®What a sharp perception! Could it be that this is not a piece of scrap metal but a piece of high-quality steel?¡¯


    Old Demon Gu narrowed his eyes slightly as he observed Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction.


    There was a type of person who was born to be a battle genius in this world.


    This type of person might not have high aptitude, and their cultivation speed was not fast, but when it came to actual combat, they would always be able to display battle prowess several times mightier than their original strength.


    Their battle instincts and perception were abnormal, and they were able to capture the opponent¡¯s weakness at any time.


    This was the best material to refine battle slaves.


    After some thought, Old Demon Gu threw out a token with the word ¡®Medicine¡¯ engraved on it.


    ¡°Interesting! This is the Medicine Tower¡¯s token. You can go there to learn how to concoct pills for some time. It just so happens that the sect is currently at war with the Voodoo Cult! Go to the Medicine Tower and lay low!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng finally heaved a sigh of relief as the feeling of being scrutinized disappeared.


    Moreover, he did not expect Old Demon Gu to be so easy to talk to. He actually asked him to go to the Medicine Tower to hide from the limelight?


    Zhou Feng had heard about the Medicine Tower. It was where all the Tri-Gu Pill Masters gathered. It could be said to be the core of the Tri-Gu Sect, as well as the most harmonious place within the sect.


    Zhou Feng had heard from others that it would be great if one could enter the Medicine Tower to become an apprentice.


    At the very least, others would not casually try to claim his life. At the same time, he would be able to learn how to concoct pills.


    One had to know that the Pill Master profession was one of riches and respect. Even a demonic sect had to show sufficient respect to a Pill Master.


    After all, a Pill Master could produce all kinds of pills. This was a resource that all cultivators desperately needed.


    ¡°Given your aptitude, becoming an Apprentice Pill Master should be quite easy! If you haven¡¯t become an Apprentice Pill Master by the time I return¡­¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng¡¯s tensed nerves relaxed, Old Demon Gu threatened him with a sinister tone.


    ¡®Given my talent? Apprentice Pill Master?¡¯ Zhou Feng was immediately stunned.


    ¡°If you can¡¯t show the value of being nurtured by me, then¡­¡±


    A stream of Demonic Qi wrapped around Zhou Feng¡¯s body as he spoke.


    The Demon-Devouring Seal on Zhou Feng¡¯s body appeared once again, and it became even more eye-catching compared to before.


    The Demon-Devouring Seal from before was basically invisible. But now, it covered his entire right hand. Complicated and strange vine-like patterns crawled all over his arm.


    Old Demon Gu had strengthened the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have a lot of secrets, so Old Demon Gu used Demonic Qi to infect one of Zhou Feng¡¯s hands for safety reasons.


    ¡°Leave this place!¡±


    After doing this, Old Demon Gu immediately asked Zhou Feng to leave.


    Zhou Feng, who wanted to ask something, immediately shut his mouth and quickly left the back of the mountain.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng returned to his residence on Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    ¡®Let¡¯s tidy up first¡­¡¯


    A lot of things had happened, so his thoughts were a little messy. Thus, he began to clear his thoughts slowly.


    And then, what should he do next?


    He didn¡¯t know when it had started, but he had begun to become reckless. Most of the time, he didn¡¯t use his brain.


    Now, he took this opportunity to carefully sort out his own situation and plan what to do in the future.


    First was the threat level!


    What was the most pressing matter right now? It should be the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body, which could threaten his life at any time.


    ¡®Old Demon Gu won¡¯t attack me for the time being,¡¯ Zhou Feng analyzed calmly.


    Although the Demon-Devouring Seal was the biggest threat, it shouldn¡¯t be a threat in the short term.


    Zhou Feng had learned from Old Demon Gu that the sect was currently fighting against the Voodoo Cult.


    Although he didn¡¯t know how strong the Voodoo Cult was, even Old Demon Gu, the Grand Elder, couldn¡¯t stay in the sect. Presumably, the Voodoo Cult¡¯s strength shouldn¡¯t be weak. Therefore, there was no need to worry about the threat of the Demon-Devouring Seal for the time being.


    Then, the second pressing matter would be Han Qi¡¯s backer. Since he had killed Han Qi, others would definitely come looking for trouble with him.


    But now, Zhou Feng had the Medicine Tower¡¯s token, so he could go to the Medicine Tower to hide from the limelight.


    This kind of threat was equivalent to nothing.


    Finally, it was his enemy, Zhao Wu. Well, Zhou Feng had broken through to the Soul Altar realm, so Zhao Wu could not be considered a threat.


    ¡®In other words¡­ I can develop in peace for a period of time now?¡¯


    Perfect! He could use this period of time to consolidate his strength.


    What Zhou Feng needed the most right now was a period of stable growth.


    The continuous battles and all kinds of fights had made him not only physically tired but also mentally exhausted. If this continued, he felt that something would happen to him sooner or later.


    It was the best-case scenario to have such a period of stable growth!

 Chapter 85 - A New Perplexing Passive Skill

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Dead? How is that possible!¡±


    A sharp voice cried, its tone full of disbelief.


    Han Ming couldn¡¯t believe this piece of news at all. His younger brother, Han Qi, had died just like that? Wasn¡¯t he in the sect?


    He really couldn¡¯t imagine how much of a waste Han Qi was to be killed in his sect.


    He didn¡¯t even have time to send out a distress signal? How strong was this opponent to be able to do this?


    Han Ming was in the dark about why Han Qi hadn¡¯t even had time to send out a distress signal.


    It was entirely because Han Qi had used the Heaven-Sealing Formation to seal off that area. This had rendered him unable to send out a distress signal.


    Arrogance and overconfidence were the main reasons Han Qi had ended up like that.


    ¡°I don¡¯t care about anything else! I have to get the Purple Jade Bell back! That¡¯s the foundation of my Han Clan!¡±


    Han Ming quickly calmed down. Actually, he didn¡¯t care about Han Qi¡¯s life or death at all, but he had to get the Purple Jade Bell back.


    One had to know that the Purple Jade Bell was a top-grade soul artifact. Under the constant nurturing of the Han ancestors, it had already begun to transform into a spiritual artifact.


    It was believed that after several generations of hard work, the Purple Jade Bell would be able to transform into a true spiritual artifact.


    One spiritual artifact was enough to allow the Han Clan to live in safety. Even if the Tri-Gu Sect collapsed, the Han Clan would still be able to establish a foothold in this area.


    It was challenging to forge spiritual artifacts, so clans would nurture top-grade soul artifacts in hopes that they would transform into spiritual artifacts.


    That¡¯s right! Some top-grade soul artifacts could transform into spiritual artifacts.


    One had to use the stupid method of nurturing a soul artifact in the Soul Altar, bathing it in soul power until it gave birth to a spirit.


    Once the soul artifact gave birth to a spirit, it meant that it had already begun to transform in the direction of a spiritual artifact.


    However, if one wanted to completely transform a soul artifact into a spiritual artifact, it would require a long period of nurturing.


    Sometimes, even the nurturing of a few generations was not enough to transform a soul artifact. Only those ancient clans could transform a soul artifact into a spiritual artifact after more than ten generations of hard work.


    The Han Clan was an ancient clan in this area, and they had taken root there way before the Tri-Gu Sect was established.


    After its establishment, the Tri-Gu Sect had swept through this area, forcing the Han Clan to swear their allegiance.


    The founding Tri-Gu Sect Leader had taken away all of the Han Clan¡¯s heritage soul artifacts, and the only soul artifact they had managed to hide was the Purple Jade Bell.


    The Han Clan was also cautious, allowing the most talented cultivator in the clan to nurture it.


    As the genius of the Han Clan¡¯s younger generation, Han Qi had become a Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator before the age of 20. Thus, the Purple Jade Bell had been bestowed to Han Qi for safekeeping.


    This was because the Han Clan had already withered to this day. The elder with the highest cultivation in the entire clan was only a Grad-7 Soul Altar cultivator.


    This elder was also Han Qi¡¯s grandfather.


    As for Han Ming, he was the successor of another branch of the main branch and was not blood-related to Han Qi.


    Even though Han Ming was slightly stronger, the Purple Jade Bell had still fallen into Han Qi¡¯s hands.


    It was also because of this matter that Han Ming was dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do.


    ¡®Damn it! I¡¯ve said it long ago! Let me take care of the Purple Jade Bell! Look at what happened now!¡¯


    The more Han Ming thought about it, the angrier he got. If they had given the Purple Jade Bell to him, such a situation wouldn¡¯t have occurred.


    It was a catastrophe! Someone else had taken away the clan¡¯s foundation-class resource, extinguishing the Han Clans¡¯ last hope of rising again.


    Han Qi had broken through to the Soul Altar realm at a young age, and the Purple Jade Bell was handed to him. Thus, no matter how they tried to discipline him, Han Qi became conceited. This kind of personality would definitely be smashed to pieces if he encountered some fiend.


    ¡®But it just so happens that I can use this matter to deal with that old fellow! He¡¯s already half-buried, and he still thinks that he¡¯s the clan leader who stands by his word!¡¯


    At that moment, Han Ming thought that if that old fellow died, then he would be the only Soul Altar cultivator left in the Han Clan.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng recuperated back on Bitter Bamboo Peak, and his previous injuries had mostly recovered.


    At that moment, he received an apology gift from the Flying Eagle Society.


    ¡°An apology gift from the Flying Eagle Society? Their reaction is actually so fast!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the gift box in front of him and was somewhat curious. He didn¡¯t expect the Flying Eagle Society to react so quickly. Presumably, they had investigated his true cultivation.


    After all, he didn¡¯t deliberately hide his cultivation.


    Moreover, when he broke through to the Soul Altar realm, almost all the true disciples learned that a Bitter Bamboo fellow had broken through to the Soul Altar realm.


    If the Flying Eagle Society asked their backer to take action, they would learn about his true cultivation in no time.


    He opened the gift box and noticed a¡­ head inside? This head was even slightly warm.


    ¡°Zhao Wu?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned as he recognized the head. It was Zhao Wu. He still had a trace of fear on his face while his eyes betrayed his confusion and regret.


    Just from these few points, it could be seen how desperate and confused Zhao Wu had been when he died.


    Zhou Feng speculated Zhao Wu had not even understood why his Flying Eagle Society¡¯s comrades had attacked and killed him.


    Zhao Wu had even made a plan of how to dispose of Zhou Feng. After all, the stronger Zhou Feng became, the more uneasy Zhao Wu felt in his heart. This was a huge hidden danger.


    Unfortunately, Zhao Wu had been executed before realizing his plans.


    The reason they had killed him was simple. Zhou Feng had broken through to the Soul Altar realm, and the Flying Eagle Society had offended him before learning of this because of Zhao Wu.


    ¡®The weak are prey to the strong! This is truly the law of the jungle!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had nothing more to comment on in his heart.


    After breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, Zao Wu no longer posed any threat to him.


    Back at the outer sect, Zhou Feng had been somewhat afraid of Zhao Wu, an inner disciple at the Qi Condensation realm!


    Later on, Zhou Feng became an inner disciple and could somehow ignore Zhao Wu. The latter had even had to avoid him after the martial arts competition.


    But now, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need to make a move. His reputation was enough to end Zhao Wu¡¯s life.


    ¡®I¡¯ll go report to the Medicine Tower tonight!¡¯


    Another enemy had disappeared. Zhou Feng¡¯s current enemies were the ones from Han Qi¡¯s side.


    Given Han Qi¡¯s strength, he shouldn¡¯t be able to provoke them for the time being. Thus, he planned to go to the Medicine Tower tonight to lay low and sort out his own situation.


    After contemplating for some time, Zhou Feng focused his attention on his passive skills.


    He opened the skill panel and noticed that the progress bar was full again!


    This speed seemed a little abnormal!


    How could he draw passive skills again? What was the reason for this?


    He pondered for some time but was unable to find an answer. Whatever! It was always good to be able to draw passive skills.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    The progress bar on the skill panel began to reset with his command.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Zhou Feng gained a new passive skill.


    ¡°This passive¡­¡±


    A strange expression appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face as he checked the new passive skill.. It was a perplexing one!

 Chapter 86 - Fisherman

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Fisherman: Your fishing rate will increase by 50%, and you will have a very small chance of catching a treasure.


    Note: The treasure can be spiritual artifacts, pills, cultivation techniques, or even opportunities!


    After Zhou Feng saw this new passive skill, he did not know what to say.


    Fisherman? Was it asking him to go fishing?


    Since this passive skill¡¯s trigger condition was fishing, it would be of no use if he did not go fishing.


    ¡®This passive benefit¡­¡¯


    It was really difficult for him to determine this skill¡¯s benefit.


    First of all, the rate of catching something increased by 50%. Would this effect be useful?


    This was because there were many kinds of special fish in this world. For example, some spirit fish could have various effects after being consumed. Or some demonic fish had extrare organs that could be used to forge weapons and refine pills.


    If he could catch these fish with this passive skill, it would not be a loss. It could even be said to be very powerful.


    The problem was¡­ where exactly could he find these fish?


    At least, this passive Fisherman should be useless in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Then, there was a small probability of catching a treasure.


    This was also entirely dependent on fate. Who knew when it could be triggered¡­


    ¡®It¡¯s not useful for the time being¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng concluded that this new passive skill was of no use to his current situation.


    He could only say that the future was within reach!


    Still, as the same old saying went, ¡°It¡¯s better to have something than nothing.¡±


    Zhou Feng calmed down and prepared to take advantage of the night to slowly leave Bitter Bamboo Peak. It was safer for him to move at night as he had the passive Night Guardian. It was basically difficult for ordinary people to find him.


    At Penta-Poison Peak¡­


    Han Ming noticed that the people he had sent out had returned and immediately asked, ¡°How is it? Have you contacted him? Is that person willing to exchange the Purple Jade Bell?¡±


    Han Ming had already decided that no matter what price he had to pay, he had to get the Purple Jade Bell back first. As for whether or not he would seek revenge for Han Qi, that could only be said after he obtained the Purple Jade Bell.


    ¡°This¡­ Nothing! We don¡¯t dare to go up Bitter Bamboo Peak either!¡±


    ¡°Also, we found traces of Young Master Han Qi¡¯s battle at a location outside Bitter Bamboo Peak!¡±


    ¡°It seems like the Heaven-Sealing Formation was used at the scene!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Han clansmen reported the situation to Han Ming truthfully.


    They had previously tried to contact Zhou Feng to see if they could resolve this matter through communication.


    Although this sounded a little embarrassing, losing a little bit of face was nothing compared to a spiritual artifact.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng deliberately avoided the limelight, so these clansmen couldn¡¯t find him at all.


    As for asking them to go to Bitter Bamboo Peak to look for him? They didn¡¯t dare as the Grand Elder was currently at Bitter Bamboo Peak.


    Forget going on normal days when the Grand Elder was not at Bitter Bamboo Peak. Now that the Grand Elder was there? Wasn¡¯t that akin to seeking death?


    Then these people found traces of Zhou Feng and Han Qi¡¯s battle.


    ¡°Heaven-Sealing Formation? Someone used the Heaven-Sealing Formation!? Did Zhou Feng plan this?¡±


    When Han Ming heard there were traces of the Heaven-Sealing Formation at the scene, he instantly suspected that Zhou Feng had been plotting against the Han Clan¡¯s Purple Jade Bell from the very start.


    Perhaps the Grand Elder was behind it. If that were the case, then it would be troublesome.


    ¡®Is the secret going to be exposed?¡¯


    Han Ming felt that it was a troublesome issue. He was afraid that their secret would be exposed. After all, only a few people knew that the Purple Jade Bell could transform into a spiritual artifact.


    Only three people in the entire Han Clan knew of this. If this matter was exposed, then the consequences¡­


    First, the sect would find an excuse to take the Purple Jade Bell. One spiritual artifact was enough to make the Elders take action.


    ¡®The sect shouldn¡¯t know about the Purple Jade Bell! Even that Zhou Feng shouldn¡¯t know!


    ¡®The Purple Jade Bell has a special spirit pattern on it. Even the Grand Elder might not be able to see through the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s secret!


    ¡°Moreover, our clan has been passing down the Purple Jade Bell for so many generations without being exposed! Others definitely don¡¯t know the actual situation!¡¯


    Han Ming mumbled in his mind and analyzed the current situation.


    The secret of the Purple Jade Bell shouldn¡¯t have been exposed yet, but he had to get it back as soon as possible to be safe.


    Moreover, they could not afford to seem desperate. If the Han Clan used all their assets to exchange for the Purple Jade Bell, everyone would know that it had a secret.


    Therefore, he had to think of a proper way.


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! What we need most now is to find Zhou Feng! If we can¡¯t even find him, then what¡¯s the point of talking?¡±


    Han Ming could only continue to send more people to look for traces of Zhou Feng.


    Three days later¡­


    Just as Han Ming¡¯s people were looking for Zhou Feng everywhere, he had already become an apprentice of the Medicine Tower.


    Relying on Old Demon Gu¡¯s token, he smoothly became an apprentice of the Medicine Tower.


    Han Ming probably never would have thought that Zhou Feng would actually become an apprentice there.


    The Sect Leader had personally established the Medicine Tower. No matter how powerful the Han Clan was, they wouldn¡¯t dare to probe for information regarding the Medicine Tower.


    Not to mention that the Han Clan had already declined beyond recognition.


    Senior Brother Mo handed a jade slip to Zhou Feng and then praised. ¡°Dispose of all these medicinal herbs! And this is the reward given by Pill Master Yuan! You¡¯re pretty good!¡±


    This attracted the envious gazes of the other apprentices.


    They hadn¡¯t received such treatment before, after all. This person had only been in the Medicine Tower for three days, yet he was able to gain Pill Master Yuan¡¯s appreciation?


    ¡°He¡¯s really lucky! Isn¡¯t it just better to deal with the medicinal herbs?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I heard that Zhou Feng came in through the back door this time!¡±


    ¡°Look at that deadpan face. Who¡¯s he trying to fool with his deadpan face?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Although many apprentices were discussing in low voices, Zhou Feng was still able to hear these discussions.


    ¡°Thank you, Senior Brother Mo!¡±


    Zhou Feng received the jade slip without any expression on his face.


    As for the crowd¡¯s discussions, he didn¡¯t take them to heart at all.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng himself didn¡¯t think that he would be talented in refining pills.


    After entering the Medicine Tower, his first job had been to deal with some medicinal herbs that had just been picked.


    Dealing with these medicinal herbs required extremely meticulous and strong senses because these medicinal herbs were very precious. If one wasn¡¯t careful, they could easily damage these herbs.


    Zhou Feng possessed the passive Master Hunter and had stacked more than 12 hunting marks, which improved his perception a lot.


    Relying on this outstanding perception, Zhou Feng was able to observe the damaged position of these medicinal herbs with extreme accuracy and carry out a perfect treatment.


    The low-grade medicinal herbs he dealt with were almost the same as when Pill Master Yuan personally dealt with them. Thus, Zhou Feng was instantly valued by Pill Master Yuan.


    And this Pill Master Yuan was one of the few Pill Masters in the Medicine Tower. It was said that many of the Spirit Nurturing Pills in the sect came from Pill Master Yuan.


    As for Senior Brother Mo, he was Pill Master Yuan¡¯s disciple. Unlike the other disciples, Senior Brother Mo was Pill Master Yuan¡¯s official apprentice.


    ¡®I really didn¡¯t expect that this conception attribute would be so useful for refining pills!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect that the passive Master Hunter would play such a big role in such a situation.. It was even possible to become a Pill Master due to this passive skill!

 Chapter 87 - Daily Cultivation

    ¡°Golden Yang Fruit¡­ Dragon Whisker Grass¡­¡±


    After Zhou Feng took care of all the medicinal herbs in front of him, he could spend the rest of his time freely.


    The Medicine Tower¡¯s environment was a little humane compared to the inner sect¡¯s cruel environment.


    There was basically no pressure here, and one only needed to complete Pill Master Yuan¡¯s assignments. No one would care about what one did next.


    Moreover, there was a small library in the Medicine Tower. There were many books on pill refinement, herbology, poisons, and so on. They contained the basic knowledge one needed to become a Pill Master.


    Every apprentice in the Medicine Tower had come here to become a Pill Master. Thus, this was also the most lively place in the Medicine Tower.


    Zhou Feng felt that this place was an excellent sanctuary for the Tri-Gu Sect. It was the most suitable place for those who didn¡¯t have much talent in cultivation.


    However, it was a very difficult thing to stay in the Medicine Tower forever.


    This was because Pill Master Yuan would check all the apprentices every other year. He wanted to see who had the talent to become a Pill Master. If one didn¡¯t meet the requirements for three years in a row, then they could only leave the Medicine Tower.


    Listening to some old apprentices, Pill Master Yuan seemed to have been looking for a lineage disciple for more than 10 years.


    He wanted to pass on his legacy.


    In the end, he settled for Senior Brother Mo and reluctantly accepted him into the sect. It seemed that he wasn¡¯t too satisfied.


    Zhou Feng overheard all kinds of gossip in the library.


    But whether he became a Pill Master or not didn¡¯t matter to him. He had come here to lay low and recuperate for some time.


    Naturally, it would be the best-case scenario if he could become a Pill Master. It didn¡¯t matter if he couldn¡¯t become one. At the very least, he would be able to learn some techniques to concoct poison.


    A long time ago, Zhou Feng had wanted to learn how to concoct poison himself.


    Now he finally had the chance.


    Zhou Feng quickly returned to his room.


    ¡®Let¡¯s finish today¡¯s daily cultivation first!¡¯


    After Zhou Feng returned to his room, he did not immediately check the jade slip that Senior Brother Mo had given him. Instead, he cultivated as per usual.


    Speaking of which¡­ his daily cultivation was still rather troublesome.


    First was the cultivation of the Demon-Devouring Technique. After several consecutive explosive increases in cultivation, Zhou Feng¡¯s control over Spiritual Qi had dropped to a disappointingly low level.


    Thinking about it carefully, Zhou Feng had not even taken half a year to go from the Body Tempering realm to the Soul Altar realm.


    His cultivation had almost skyrocketed, and in just a few months, he had jumped through several realms. In addition, he hadn¡¯t received any guidance, so his foundation could be said to be extremely unstable.


    Therefore, he slowly strengthened his foundation by taking advantage of this hard-earned leisure time.


    After cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique, Zhou Feng began to use the Soul Altar to nurture the Purple Jade Bell.


    That¡¯s right! After seizing the Purple Jade Bell from Han Qi, he discarded the splitting ax he had forged previously.


    Han Qi¡¯s mark on the Purple Jade Bell had been washed away as Zhou Feng baptized it with his soul power.


    Now, he could finally place the Purple Jade Bell on the Soul Altar for preliminary refining. This also meant that he could use the Purple Jade Bell to fight in the future.


    ¡®Attack and defense are one! And he was so good-looking! He was really a good person!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could not help but sigh as he looked at the crystal-clear Purple Jade Bell in his hand. It was his best trophy so far.


    Zhou Feng wrapped the Purple Jade Bell with his soul power and placed it on the Soul Altar.


    The aura of the soul power slowly merged into the Purple Jade Bell.


    The Purple Jade Bell, which had been dim for a few days, instantly emitted a faint purple light as the soul power nourished it.


    The purple light gave off a solemn and dignified feeling as numerous spirit patterns slowly appeared.


    ¡®Eh? This is¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng realized that something was wrong.


    The Purple Jade Bell seemed to be in a state of metamorphosis!?


    When he was holding it in his hand earlier, he hadn¡¯t noticed it yet.


    But when he placed it on the Soul Altar, he felt that the Purple Jade Bell seemed to be nurturing a spirit.


    This spirit was continuously asking him for his soul power and Spiritual Qi!


    Zhou Feng could be said to be familiar with this vague call.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in his body gave the same call, like a child who wanted to drink milk.


    Zhou Feng did not know that this Purple Jade Bell had already broken through the limits of ordinary soul artifacts.


    Next, he only needed to continuously provide soul power and Spiritual Qi to transform the Purple Jade Bell.


    And this was also the hard work of more than ten generations of the Han Clan.


    Unfortunately, the efforts of the Han ancestors all benefited Zhou Feng now. He had plucked the ripe fruit at the last stage of the transformation.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t it just soul power and Spiritual Qi? I have plenty!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was not stingy with his Spiritual Qi. Thanks to the Demon-Devouring Gu and the Level-2 Gluttony, the Spiritual Qi in his body was like a sea.


    Although it was not that pure, he had plenty of reserves.


    The torrent of Spiritual Qi continued to pour into the Soul Altar, and along with the divine soul¡¯s power, it continuously refined the Purple Jade Bell.


    The large amount of Spiritual Qi caused the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s spirit patterns to become clearer.


    Zhou Feng could feel that he had a trace of connection with the Purple Jade Bell. This could be considered the initial refinement success.


    Almost done!


    After the initial refinement of the Purple Jade Bell was completed, Zhou Feng also stopped.


    He didn¡¯t have enough soul power, and he still had to refine his Vital Gu.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in his body had gone through several Vital Gu refinements, so it was no longer willful. It had even begun to cultivate together with him.


    Every time Zhou Feng cultivated, the Demon-Devouring Gu would absorb Spiritual Qi.


    It would absorb Zhou Feng¡¯s Spiritual Qi and reverse-feed pure Spiritual Qi.


    Zhou Feng had already begun to enjoy the benefits of cultivating the Tri-Gu techniques.


    Even if Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude was not good, he was still much more powerful than ordinary people, thanks to the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s assistance. Thus, he had to continue cultivating this Vital Gu refinement method and could not slack off.


    ¡°Then, the Demon-Devouring Technique!¡±


    After using up the last bit of his soul power, Zhou Feng began to ponder over Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s inheritance dao art.


    Demon-Devouring Technique!


    This was Old Demon Gu¡¯s fundamental technique, but the side effects were horrifying.


    If he was not careful, it would be very easy for his personality to split. It was challenging to reach the realm of Old Demon Gu¡¯s ever-changing personalities.


    Even so, Zhou Feng had no choice but to cultivate.


    Firstly, he only had the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    Secondly, he had two Demon-Devouring Seals on him. This was equivalent to two time bombs. If he wanted to remove the Demon-Devouring Seals, he needed to understand the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Seal!¡±


    Zhou Feng formed a strange seal with both hands, and the Spiritual Qi in his body instantly transformed into Demonic Qi.


    The Demonic Qi formed a strange seal again!


    However, the seal only lasted for a few seconds before dissipating.


    Obviously, he failed again!


    This Demon-Devouring Seal was really too difficult to cultivate, or it could be said that his aptitude in this aspect was not good..

 Chapter 88 - Research on a Poison Formula

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It¡¯s really hard to cultivate!¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed and gave up on cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    This level of dao art was not something that could be learned in a day or two. Therefore, he only took some time out every day to cultivate. His current main focus was still to integrate his strength.


    He had already finished his daily cultivation.


    At that moment, he picked up the jade slip that Senior Brother Mo had given him. He placed the jade slip on his forehead and used his divine soul to extract all the information in the jade slip.


    In an instant, some basic knowledge about pill refinement surged into his mind.


    This included the matching of medicinal herbs and the mutual suppression of each other.


    ¡°The Tri-Blaze Pill Refinement TechniqueI?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect that there was actually a pill refinement technique in this jade slip.


    Although it was only the simplest entry-level technique, it was still valuable enough.


    The value of a pill refinement technique alone far surpassed many dao arts because this was a true money-making skill.


    He had joined the Medicine Tower only a few days ago, so how could he have obtained a pill refinement technique? Did Pill Master Yuan think so highly of him?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was slightly hesitant. Could it be that there was some conspiracy?


    However, after thinking about it, he felt that he was overthinking. Pill Master Yuan wasn¡¯t just an entry-level Pill Master.


    He was powerful and respected, and Zhou Feng could not find a reason he might want to harm him.


    Could it be that Pill Master Yuan really wanted to find a qualified disciple to pass on his legacy?


    Zhou Feng recalled that Pill Master Yuan seemed to be quite old. He had only seen him once during their last meeting.


    Pill Master Yuan¡¯s old age made people feel as if he was about to die.


    ¡°Forget it! I don¡¯t want to think about it anymore! I¡¯d better resume my research on that Carefree Powder!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think too much about it and continued with his research.


    His research should bear some fruit now that he obtained the jade slip with the foundation of pill refinement and the complete introduction of medicinal herbs.


    This so-called Carefree Powder was an aphrodisiac that he had obtained from Liu Yan. This aphrodisiac was special as it could stimulate the human body¡¯s instincts, and there would be no side effects after taking it. It could even prolong the time of happiness. Unfortunately, its smell was quite strong, so it was easy to discover it.


    Zhou Feng studied this Carefree Powder because he was interested in the fact that there were no side effects.


    After all, these aphrodisiacs had played a crucial role during his battle with Han Qi. Thus, he wanted to use the Carefree Powder as the foundation to develop a special poison.


    It could also be said that it wasn¡¯t a poison but a tonic!


    Zhou Feng felt that things like poison became more and more useless as one¡¯s cultivation realm advanced. If one wanted to use poison to deal with cultivators above the Soul Altar realm, they could only develop more toxic and concealed poisons.


    However, this was challenging. A poison that could make even Soul Altar cultivators fall for it so easily, how powerful must this be!?


    As such, he wanted to find another way.


    The human body would subconsciously resist harmful things, especially for cultivators above the Soul Altar realm. As long as this thing was threatening, then the body would send a warning.


    This was the benefit of condensing the power of the divine soul and improving one¡¯s perception.


    However, when it came to something beneficial to the body, the body¡¯s instincts would not have any reaction and would often ignore it.


    Zhou Feng was wondering if he could develop some ¡®beneficial¡¯ poisons.


    This way, he could bypass many people¡¯s perceptions and wait until the poisoned party realized something was wrong. By then, however, it would already be too late.


    Zhou Feng could not help but grumble in his heart, ¡®Using an aphrodisiac to deal with the enemy¡­ I should be considered a pervert¡­¡¯


    Then, he began to try to modify the Carefree Powder¡¯s formula.


    Zhou Feng visualized the new Carefree Powder. ¡®Its strong smell should disappear, while it should also turn into a colorless and tasteless poison.¡¯


    Although the price of doing so greatly would reduce the Carefree Powder¡¯s efficacy, its concealment characteristic would be the new version¡¯s advantage. It would be almost impossible to detect it. After all, this colorless and tasteless powder wouldn¡¯t be noticed in an intense battle.


    In addition to being colorless and tasteless, the new version would also have the special effect of toxic accumulation. When the toxicity accumulated to a certain extent, it would begin to affect the human body.


    And the effects on the human body would also be positive.


    ¡®Desire increase, function increase, excitement¡­ It¡¯s best if it¡¯s addictive! It can make the other party dependent on¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng broke down the Carefree Powder¡¯s formula while chanting the names of various medicinal herbs.


    It had to be said that developing a brand-new poison took a toll on the brain.


    Just realizing a simple idea was already challenging, let alone a live experiment that had not been conducted yet.


    Fortunately, he could carry out all kinds of experiments in the Medicine Tower.


    As long as he paid some Spirit Stones, he could exchange for many ordinary medicinal herbs.


    Therefore, he had a lot of time to try and make mistakes.


    But speaking of medicinal herbs, Zhou Feng only recently learned one thing. That was that the carcasses of different Gu could be used as ingredients, and they had very high value.


    Zhou Feng had instantly felt that he had lost $100,000,000 after learning this. Until now, almost everyone he had killed should have had a Gu in their bodies, meaning he had missed many Gu carcasses.


    Once these people died, their Gu would naturally die too, but he had not collected these Gu carcasses.


    This was a huge waste!


    It had taken him an entire day to recover from that heartache.


    ¡®Oh right! I almost forgot to make the fishing rod!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly remembered that he had an unfinished task. That was to make a fishing rod.


    Hadn¡¯t he gained the passive Fisherman previously?


    Although this passive skill was not of much use at the moment, he could still try fishing.


    He would try to trigger that small probability and see if he could catch some treasure or something.


    Hence, he planned to make a simple fishing rod and take a little time to fish. He would treat it as a daily stress-relieving activity.


    ¡®I¡¯ll use ironwood for the fishing rod itself. It¡¯s hard enough. I¡¯ll use ice silk for the fishing line¡­¡¯


    It wouldn¡¯t take much effort if he made a simple fishing rod.


    Zhou Feng made it in one go.


    The structure of the fishing rod was crude. There was only the rod itself, the fishing line, and the hook.


    From its appearance, it was just a long wooden rod with a line and a fishing hook hanging on it.


    As for the bait, he hadn¡¯t prepared anything.


    He wasn¡¯t really going fishing. This was just a stress-relieving exercise.


    ¡®There seems to be a stream behind the valley?¡¯


    Zhou Feng remembered there was a stream behind the valley where the medicinal herbs were planted. It should be a good fishing spot.


    Just as Zhou Feng was going fishing to relieve his stress, a person delivered a letter to him.


    The messenger used his hood to cover his face and left immediately after delivering the letter. It was as if he was afraid that Zhou Feng would stop and interrogate him.


    Zhou Feng frowned.. ¡°Who would want to deliver a letter to me?¡±

 Chapter 89 - A Spirit Fish

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng ¦Óhought for a moment and opened the letter.


    ¡°So it¡¯s the person behind Han Qi!¡±


    After reading the general contents of the letter, his brows relaxed.


    From the contents of the letter, it seemed that the person behind Han Qi couldn¡¯t do anything to him. Or it could be said that they couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng as long as he was in the Medicine Tower.


    Since that was the case, he didn¡¯t take this letter to heart. In any case, he should be relatively safe as long as he was in the Medicine Tower.


    During this period of safety, Zhou Feng could take advantage of this period of time to deal with the internal and hidden injuries in his body, as well as completely turn the Purple Jade Bell into his own soul artifact.


    Zhou Feng even planned to start refining attack-type Gu in the Medicine Tower.


    Of course, it would be best if he could become a Pill Master.


    ¡®But I didn¡¯t expect the people behind Han Qi to be able to find out that I am at the Medicine Tower so quickly! It seems that I was right to stay out of the limelight temporarily!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that his previous decision was correct.


    He had been too rash before. He could obtain unlimited passive skills with his skill panel, so the longer he dragged this out, the stronger he would become. There was no need for him to be so aggressive.


    With that, he threw the letter aside, picked up the newly made fishing rod, and prepared to go fishing.


    ¡­


    ¡°How is it? Have you contacted him?¡±


    ¡°Still no! But I¡¯ve already sent someone to deliver the letter to Zhou Feng!¡±


    ¡°I heard that Zhou Feng entered the Medicine Tower with the Grand Elder¡¯s token¡­¡±


    ¡°If¡­¡±


    At present, all the Han Elders were gathered together, discussing Zhou Feng¡¯s matter.


    To be honest, Han Ming had never thought that Zhou Feng would actually hide at the Medicine Tower.


    Previously, in order to take back the Purple Jade Bell, Han Ming had already planned to sell out his entire clan in exchange for a true disciple to take action.


    This true disciple was a strong contender for the Sect Leader position. His name was Huang Yang, and he had a Grade-1 Soul Altar!


    Moreover, he had the special Fiery Sun Physique, and his battle prowess was close to that of an ordinary Elder.


    He had also been hinting that the Han Clan would submit to him. However, other than Huang Yang, there were many other contenders in the sect, and their strength did not pale to Huang Yang¡¯s. Naturally, the Han Clan would not place their bets so early.


    Still, using the entire clan to rely on Huang Yang as a price to exchange for the Purple Jade Bell was not unacceptable.


    Unfortunately, after Han Ming¡¯s investigation, they found that Zhou Feng was hiding in the Medicine Tower and had inexplicably become an apprentice.


    This was a bit troublesome!


    The Medicine Tower was a place that even Huang Yang did not dare to provoke rashly.


    ¡°Let¡¯s see what the situation is first!¡±


    ¡°Also, investigate if Zhou Feng has any good friends or relatives this time!¡±


    ¡°If it really doesn¡¯t work¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Han clansmen discussed for a long time, but they did not come up with any good ideas.


    As long as Zhou Feng stayed at the Medicine Tower, it would be very difficult for them to make a move.


    In the end, they resorted to using Zhou Feng¡¯s relatives and friends to threaten him.


    Han Ming even gave the order to investigate everything about Zhou Feng, even his deeds before entering the sect.


    As long as the Purple Jade Bell didn¡¯t reach his hands, Han Ming wouldn¡¯t be able to rest in peace.


    That was a spiritual artifact!


    ¡®I might be able to get rid of the restrictions of the clan with this spiritual artifact! Even the restrictions of the sect!¡¯


    Han Ming looked at the Elders, who exuded a rotten aura and felt a wave of disgust in his heart.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Zhou Feng was relaxed. The pressure that had been lingering in his heart had disappeared.


    Ever since he had entered the Tri-Gu Sect, an invisible mountain-like pressure had been pressing down on his shoulders.


    Now, that mountain had disappeared for a short period.


    ¡°Start fishing!¡±


    He casually found a spot by the stream and swung the fishing rod in his hand. The bright and shiny fishing hook fell into the water.


    Zhou Feng slightly adjusted his sitting posture, his expression somewhat relaxed.


    Under normal circumstances, a fish would rarely approach a hook without bait.


    Yet, a fish immediately bit said hook with the support of the passive Fisherman!


    ¡°So fast!?¡±


    Zhou Feng subconsciously pulled the fishing rod, and a large fish instantly came out of the water. This fish was at least as long as his arm, and it even had a single horn. Its scales were slightly black, and its sharp teeth were like sawteeth.


    The strange fish immediately swung its tail at Zhou Feng. Its powerful tail even let out a piercing sound in the air.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately summoned the Purple Jade Bell from his Soul Altar.


    A dignified purple light enveloped his body while the seemingly small bell slowly floated above his head.


    Dang!


    The Purple Jade Bell hit the strange fish, and its body instantly burst open.


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s endless supply of Spiritual Qi, the Purple Jade Bell became more and more mystical.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng had a feeling that the Purple Jade Bell seemed to have come to life.


    It was really too strange!


    How long had it been? The Purple Jade Bell had actually changed so much?


    ¡°Eh? There¡¯s a fish in the fish¡¯s belly?¡±


    After the strange fish¡¯s body broke apart, Zhou Feng suddenly saw a fish in its belly.


    ¡°It¡¯s transparent?¡±


    The small fish was only the size of a finger and transparent.


    Except for the head, the rest of the fish¡¯s body was transparent. Finding that fish there would be very difficult if one didn¡¯t look carefully.


    ¡°Did I trigger that extremely small probability!?¡±


    Zhou Feng wondered if he had triggered the passive skill and caught the treasure.


    The more he thought about it, the more he felt he had done so because the stream was so small. How could there be such a big fish?


    The strange fish from before was as long as his arm.


    Zhou Feng took the transparent fish and smelled it. A fragrance came from the small fish.


    ¡®There¡¯s no fishy smell? Instead, there¡¯s a fragrance? This couldn¡¯t be a spirit fish, right?¡¯


    While he was hesitating, the Demon-Devouring Gu suddenly reacted in his body, which had not moved for a long time.


    ¡°This is good stuff? Directly swallow it?¡±


    After refining it into his Vital Gu, Zhou Feng was now able to communicate with the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu told him that the fish in his hand was good stuff. If he swallowed it, it would bring him great benefits.


    Zhou Feng knew the Demon-Devouring Gu very well; only the truly good things would make it communicate with him.


    Especially after Zhou Feng turned the Demon-Devouring Gu into his Vital Gu, it treated him as its family. Only when he was good could the Demon-Devouring Gu be better.


    Thus, Zhou Feng was sure that the small transparent fish in his hand was one of the legendary spirit fish.


    He had caught a spirit fish on his first try. This luck¡­


    ¡°I just wanted to relax!¡±


    Zhou Feng swore that he had come here to let his nerves relax.. He never expected to catch a spirit fish with just one fishing attempt!

 Chapter 90 - The Spirit Fishs Effects

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Just swallow it?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the spirit fish in his hand and swallowed it without thinking too much. Anyway, he was immune to poisons, so a small fish should not be in any danger.


    The spirit fish turned into a stream of Spiritual Qi the moment it entered his mouth, giving him a feeling that it had melted in his mouth.


    Then, Zhou Feng felt as if he had drunk a mouthful of clear spring water.


    A feeling that chilled his heart was transmitted to his entire body. Following that, the fish¡¯s Spiritual Qi quickly fused with the Spiritual Qi in his body.


    ¡°My Spiritual Qi is¡­¡±


    After this stream of clear Spiritual Qi fused with his Spiritual Qi, it seemed to have some sort of chemical reaction.


    The Spiritual Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was boiling.


    The huge reserves of heterogeneous Spiritual Qi actually began to decrease.


    ¡°My Spiritual Qi is decreasing!?¡±


    At first, he was shocked, but then he realized that this was not bad because his heterogeneous Spiritual Qi started to become pure as it decreased.


    Zhou Feng had been worried about how to make his Spiritual Qi become purer.


    He had been too reckless previously, and his cultivation level had increased too quickly. This had caused his Spiritual Qi to be too heterogeneous and impractical. If others had the same amount of Spiritual Qi he had, they would gain twice the power increase than he did.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng had not found a way to purify his Spiritual Qi. He could only rely on the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s continuous reverse-feeding, but the efficiency was too low.


    After all, his Spiritual Qi reserves were vast, and it would take a long time to fully purify it.


    He did not expect that this spirit fish would actually solve his problem.


    ¡°It¡¯s painful!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s meridians suddenly began to hurt.


    What was going on?


    He immediately checked his body to see what had happened.


    The findings stunned him. The messy internal injuries and scars in his body were actually recovering!


    Was this also the effect of the spirit fish? What kind of luck was this?


    Zhou Feng was a little stunned because his luck was too good!


    The hidden injuries in his body that he needed to spend a lot of time to heal disappeared in such a short time!


    ¡°Is this a fortuitous encounter?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little excited and looked at the fishing rod in his hand.


    Soon, the spirit fish¡¯s Spiritual Qi was consumed.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu in his body also quieted down. It had absorbed a lot of Spiritual Qi from the spirit fish just now, and it was about to begin its metamorphosis!


    Although the Spiritual Qi in his body had already calmed down, the fire in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart did not calm down. If he could catch two more spirit fish, then he would be flying!


    This passive Fisherman was simply invincible.


    Zhou Feng continued to wave his fishing rod.


    At the mountainside market¡­


    Qian Shang¡¯s worries over the past few days were over when he suddenly heard a piece of news.


    Qian Shang stuttered, ¡°Dead¡­ Dead? Young Master Zhao Wu is dead? Did he offend Young Master Zhou Feng?¡±


    This was too unbelievable. Young Master Zhao Wu was also at the 9th level of Qi Condensation, and he had the Flying Eagle Association backing him up.


    Logically speaking, Zhou Feng should not be a match for Young Master Zhao Wu alone!


    Moreover, wasn¡¯t there a rumor? Zhou Feng had a spiritual artifact, and now everyone was looking for trouble with Zhou Feng.


    Qian Shang had even planned to run away. If it weren¡¯t for his daughter stopping him, he would have run away long ago.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I heard that Young Master Zhou had already forged a Grade-9 Soul Altar! This scared those old fellows of the Flying Eagle Society so much that they directly sent Zhao Wu¡¯s head to Bitter Bamboo Peak!¡±


    ¡°He broke through? This¡­¡±


    Qian Shang instantly understood what it meant to be lucky again and again.


    His luck had changed! The previous investment had not gone down the drain! Moreover, it was a huge profit!


    Zhou Feng had broken through, which meant that he was already a Soul Altar cultivator.


    A Soul Altar cultivator as a backer?


    This was something that Qian Shang did not even dare to think about before.


    Soul Altar cultivators were considered experts in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Qian Shang could safely conduct business with the protection of a Soul Altar cultivator. There was no need to worry about this or that.


    ¡®No! I must share the good news with my daughter!¡¯


    ¡°Thank you! I¡¯ll treat you to a meal next time!¡±


    After Qian Shang gave a simple thank you, he immediately rushed back to the shop. He wanted to share the good news with his daughter.


    Not long after, Qian Shang returned to his shop.


    ¡°Good daughter! You¡ª What Happened!?¡±


    The first thing Qian Shang saw when he returned to the shop was a mess as if someone had robbed him.


    Qian Qianqian was hiding in a corner.


    This scene made Qian Shang¡¯s hands and feet feel cold. What happened?


    ¡°Master Zhou Feng offended the Han Clan! The Han Clan came just now! I¡¯m fine!¡±


    Qian Qianqian used the simplest words to explain what had happened just now.


    ¡°The Han Clan? This¡­¡±


    Qian Shang didn¡¯t understand the strength of the so-called Han Clan.


    ¡°It¡¯s said that the Han Clan has three Soul Altar cultivators.¡± Qian Qianqian¡¯s face was calm.


    Compared to Qian Qianqian¡¯s calmness, Qian Shang instantly felt like he was suffocating!


    Three Soul Altar cultivators?


    Offending such a clan?


    Qian Shang had been feeling that he was lucky, but now he felt that he had stepped on a puddle of bad luck.


    The opponent was now a clan with three Soul Altar cultivators, while his backer Zhou Feng had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡®It¡¯s happening again! It¡¯s happening again!¡¯


    This familiar feeling made Qian Shang¡¯s heart somewhat unable to bear it. It was as if the clouds in the nine heavens had suddenly fallen into a bottomless abyss.


    It was like a rollercoaster!


    Following such a backer was simply a challenge to his heart.


    How could he have just broken through to the Soul Altar realm and already caused such a mess!?.


    ¡°Daughter, what should we do?¡±


    Qian Shang wore a listless look. Apparently, he planned to give up struggling and leave everything to his daughter to decide.


    ¡°Maintain the status quo!¡± Qian Qianqian softly said four words.


    ¡°Alright!¡± he replied weakly and began to clean up the messy shop.


    Qian Shang did not have the slightest objection to his daughter¡¯s decision.


    At the same time, he made up his mind!


    Since he had chosen Zhou Feng as his backer, he might as well go all the way to the dark side. It was impossible for them to switch sides now, anyway.


    While Qian Shang was being mentally tortured¡­


    Han Ming completed his thorough investigation on Zhou Feng. They had investigated every aspect of Zhou Feng¡¯s life before and after entering the sect.


    ¡°A refugee? A mere refugee? No relatives or friends? Extremely lonely?¡±


    Han Ming¡¯s brows squeezed out the word ¡®lonely¡¯. Given his background, he had actually been able to successfully break through to the Soul Altar realm!?


    And most importantly, Zhou Feng actually did not have any relatives or friends, meaning they couldn¡¯t use anyone else to threaten him to leave the Medicine Tower.


    ¡®I really can¡¯t do anything to this person?¡¯


    When Han Ming thought of this, he resented Han Qi even more. ¡®That piece of trash actually lost to such a person! It¡¯s fine if you lost, but you even lost the Purple Jade Bell!¡¯


    ¡°What should I do now!?¡± muttered Han Miang..

 Chapter 91 - Succeeding on his First Try!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What! That newcomer started trying to refine pills? It must be fake news!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s absolutely true! I just saw it with my own eyes!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s only been a few days? Impossible!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Medicine Tower had been calm for a long time, but a commotion was suddenly stirred up.


    The reason was very simple. Zhou Feng, who had just entered the Medicine Tower for a few days, was trying to refine pills!


    This was simply inconceivable!


    Pill refinement! As an extremely powerful skill, it wasn¡¯t something that could be attempted with just a casual bout of study.


    Each of these apprentices had been studying in the Medicine Tower for at least two to three years.


    In their first year, they would familiarize themselves with various medicinal ingredients. In the second year, they would familiarize themselves with pill formulas. Lastly, they studied and practiced pill refinement techniques in the third year.


    Even with these few years of accumulation, the number of people who were able to obtain Pill Master Yuan¡¯s permission to attempt pill refinement could be counted on one hand.


    However, how long had Zhou Feng been in the Medicine Tower? It seemed to be less than seven days!


    How could he be able to open the cauldron to refine pills? This was unfair!


    These apprentices had been able to enter the Medicine Tower because they more or less had some background. They might not dare to be angry at Pill Master Yuan, but they dared to be angry at Zhou Feng.


    Actually, Zhou Feng himself was also very strange. He had only been in the Medicine Tower for a few days, so how could he attempt to use the cauldron to refine pills?


    One had to know that he did not even understand the names of many medicinal ingredients.


    ¡°Junior Brother Zhou! Get ready to begin!¡±


    Senior Brother Mo was standing at the side and started to guide Zhou Feng in refining pills.


    The cauldron in front of Zhou Feng was huge. Its entire body was made of bronze, and each side had a hole that let out the wind.


    From the traces of the vicissitudes of life, it should have been used for a long time.


    ¡°Ignite the fire!¡± Senior Brother Mo reminded him expressionlessly.


    Zhou Feng collected his thoughts, and his hands formed the seal to ignite the fire. A ball of fire appeared out of thin air.


    Although Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t even recognize some of the medicinal ingredients¡¯ names, he was familiar with the Tri-Blaze Pill Refinement Technique.


    ¡°Refine the essence!¡±


    Following Senior Brother Mo¡¯s reminder, Zhou Feng calmly placed the hemostasis vines, gold and silver grass, and other medicinal ingredients into the cauldron.


    By borrowing the strength of the spirit fire, he forced out the medicinal essence of these ingredients. Then, he used the flexibility of the spirit fire to fuse these essences together.


    This was the simplest pill refinement method.


    Senior Brother Mo watched as Zhou Feng threw several ingredients into the cauldron at the same time. He frowned and thought for a moment but did not open his mouth to give a hint.


    Normally, the refinement of medicinal essence was done separately and one at a time. If it was done simultaneously, a single mistake would cause the medicinal essence to be completely burned.


    One had to know that using the Tri-Blaze Pill Refinement Technique¡¯s ignition seal would draw fierce spirit flames. These low-grade medicinal ingredients would be completely burned if one didn¡¯t control them properly.


    ¡®This isn¡¯t as difficult as I imagined!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t pay attention to what Senior Brother Mo was thinking behind the scenes. He was completely focused on refining pills right now.


    Moreover, he discovered that refining pills was not as difficult as he had imagined.


    Relying on his extremely high perception, Zhou Feng was able to perceive the state of the ingredients in the cauldron.


    He only needed to feel that the ingredients were about to be scorched and stop.


    What was worth mentioning was that his perception had increased after this period.


    The passive Master Hunter had already been superimposed to the 20th level. In other words, he had directly increased his perception to 20 points.


    Because of these 20 points of perception, he found it effortless to refine the medicinal essence.


    Not long after, the impurities of these ingredients were all burned dry, leaving only the medicinal essence.


    When Senior Brother Mo saw this, a trace of disbelief flashed through his eyes, and then he reminded him, ¡°Condense the pill seal!¡±


    There was only the medicinal essence left in the cauldron. Now, Zhou Feng could start condensing the pill.


    Zhou Feng immediately cast the pill condensing seal, and a large amount of Spiritual Qi, along with his soul power, was continuously sent out.


    The medicinal essence began to fuse, and the fire outside the cauldron also slowly decreased.


    ¡°It¡¯s almost done!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that it was almost done, so he extinguished the fire and collected the final product.


    A faint medicinal fragrance came from the cauldron.


    ¡°It¡¯s done? It¡¯s done on the first try!?¡±


    After smelling the medicinal fragrance, Senior Brother Mo¡¯s face couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer, and a trace of jealousy welled up in his heart.


    ¡®Why!? Is there such a huge difference between people?¡¯ Senior Brother Mo roared in his heart, ¡®The heavens are too unfair!¡¯


    In order to become a Pill Master, he only slept a few hours a day and worked hard day and night.


    Moreover, he wagged his tail and begged for mercy in front of that old fellow, carefully serving him.


    That old fellow didn¡¯t even look him in the eye from the beginning to the end. In the end, he used all his strength to become his official disciple barely.


    But this Zhou Feng in front of him¡­ How long had it been since he came in contact with the pill refining method? Not only did that old fellow look at Zhou Feng in a different light, but he even succeeded in refining pills on his first try!


    This flame of jealousy was like a spark that set fire to the prairie, constantly burning Senior Brother Mo¡¯s mind.


    It was like if you studied hard and didn¡¯t dare to slack off day and night, you would only get 60 points in the end.


    However, there was one person who played every day and didn¡¯t even study for a few days. In the end, he got 100 points. This kind of difference really made it hard for people to calm down.


    At that moment, Senior Brother Mo¡¯s state of mind crumbled!


    ¡®This is the Hemostasis Pill? It doesn¡¯t look like much!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the few Hemostasis Pills in front of him. He was not too satisfied because he was still not familiar with them. There were still some scorch marks on the surface of the Hemostasis Pill.


    Although it was successfully refined, the quality was not very good.


    However, he was also quite content. He was able to succeed on his first pill refinement. Although it was the lowest grade of the Hemostasis Pill, it greatly excited him.


    ¡®Looks like I have talent in pill refinement!¡¯


    As Zhou Feng was lamenting that his talent in pill refinement was not bad, he suddenly felt a malicious intent locking on him from behind.


    ¡®This is?¡¯


    He immediately turned around and glanced at Senior Brother Mo behind him.


    Senior Brother Mo did not seem to expect him to turn around suddenly. The expression on his face had not recovered, so he appeared extremely stiff.


    ¡°Haha! Junior Brother Zhou is indeed worthy of being someone that Master values highly. You succeeded in refining pills on your first try!¡±


    Senior Brother Mo laughed and forcefully erased his jealous expression.


    Zhou Feng gave a smile and said, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect it either! It¡¯s probably just good luck!¡±


    But in his heart, he already regarded Senior Brother Mo as an enemy. That malice just now was already hinting that he wanted to take his life!


    It seemed like the tall tree had attracted the wind.


    As if sensing a change in his attitude, Senior Brother Mo decided to leave. ¡°I¡¯ll report this matter to Master! Junior Brother, you can continue to familiarize yourself here!¡±


    Following that, news of Zhou Feng¡¯s first successful pill refinement spread throughout the entire Medicine Tower.


    This was because this was the first time in the history of the Medicine Tower that a person had succeeded on their first pill refinement attempt!


    ¡°He succeeded on his first try? That can¡¯t be!¡±


    ¡°This should be true! Could it be that a new Pill Master is going to appear in our Medicine Tower?¡±


    ¡°This, this, this¡­¡±


    Many apprentices were shocked. What kind of talent was this? To succeed on his first pill refinement, didn¡¯t this mean that Zhou Feng had a very high chance of becoming a Pill Master!?


    The status of a Pill Master didn¡¯t need to be mentioned.


    These people had been cursing and jealous of Zhou Feng earlier. Yet, the first thought in their minds was how to rope in Zhou Feng after this piece of news..

 Chapter 92 - The Odd Passive Skill

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    A new Pill Master was enough to change many things, especially since the Tri-Gu Sect was currently in an internal conflict. If a Pill Master joined one of the factions, it would likely be the last straw that broke the camel¡¯s back.


    Therefore, many people in the Medicine Tower began to spread the news.


    Among them, the one who was the happiest was probably Pill Master Yuan.


    ¡°Good! Good! Good!¡±


    When Pill Master Yuan learned that Zhou Feng had succeeded in his first pill refinement, he immediately shouted ¡°Good¡± three times.


    ¡®This smell¡­ As expected, this old fellow is about to die. That¡¯s why he¡¯s in a hurry to find a successor!¡¯


    Next to him, Senior Brother Mo could smell a medicinal fragrance, which was concealing a rotten smell. This smell was like the smell of a rotting corpse.


    Even though the thick medicinal fragrance was covering it, it could still be discerned.


    This should be the smell of a corpse!


    Given Pill Master Yuan¡¯s usual behavior and this smell, Senior Brother Mo speculated that this old fellow would not live much longer. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t be in such a hurry to find a legacy disciple.


    ¡®I¡¯m afraid taking me in as a disciple was only the last resort! If it weren¡¯t for that Zhou Feng, I would be the one to obtain the inheritance in the end!¡¯


    Senior Brother Mo lowered his head. When he thought of Zhou Feng, a trace of jealousy appeared on his face.


    He was very clear that his aptitude wasn¡¯t good. It was simply a world of difference compared to Zhou Feng, who had succeeded in his first pill refinement.


    However, he could already be considered the one with the best aptitude in the Medicine Tower. If Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t appeared, then his Master would have passed down his inheritance to him,


    Senior Brother Mo had a good understanding of this old fellow.


    Pill Master Yuan wasn¡¯t from Southern Border but had come from another place. It was said that he had fled from the Central Plains and had a soul cauldron on him, as well as a complete pill refinement inheritance.


    In addition, Pill Master Yuan had been in the Tri-Gu Sect for over 100 years.


    If Senior Brother Mo was able to obtain his inheritance¡­


    ¡®If I had these resources, I might be able to forge a Grade-1 Soul Altar and peer into the Purple Mansion realm!¡¯


    Senior Brother Mo believed that all of Pill Master Yuan¡¯s inheritance should belong to him and that Zhou Feng was someone who had come to pluck peaches. This was something that he absolutely wouldn¡¯t allow.


    Traces of killing intent began to condense in Senior Brother Mo¡¯s heart.


    ¡°Tomorrow! Get Zhou Feng to continue refining pills! Increase the difficulty a bit this time!¡±


    After Pill Master Yuan¡¯s initial excitement, his face flushed while his tone became weak. It seemed that he was really beyond cure.


    ¡°Yes!¡±


    Senior Brother Mo¡¯s head was lowered the entire time, or else he would have revealed a trace of emotion.


    ¡­


    While Senior Brother Mo was reporting to Pill Master Yuan, Zhou Feng returned to his room.


    ¡®It seems that it¡¯s impossible for me to go fishing today!¡¯


    He didn¡¯t expect to cause such a big commotion just because he had successfully refined a batch of pills.


    Now, everyone in the Medicine Tower wanted to talk to him.


    Some people even tried to rope him in, saying who was behind them.


    This caused him to lose his original intention of going fishing.


    Ever since he had caught a spirit fish, Zhou Feng had developed a habit of going to the stream every afternoon to fish. He wanted to see if he could catch another spirit fish.


    Unfortunately, his luck only worked the first time. After that, he had not caught anything good, only some small fish.


    ¡®I have nothing to do! Then I¡¯ll speed up the skill panel¡¯s progress bar!¡¯


    After finishing his daily cultivation, Zhou Feng glanced at the progress bar on the skill panel.


    At this time, the progress bar was semi-full. As long as he waited for some time, he should be able to draw a new passive skill.


    However, he did not want to wait too long. He planned to use Spirit Stones to speed up the progress bar.


    Coincidentally, he had obtained quite several Spirit Stones from the Medicine Tower. Also, he had obtained a large number of Spirit Stones from Han Qi. At present, he could be considered wealthy.


    He could use it up.


    Zhou Feng took out the Spirit Stones and circulated the Demon-Devouring Technique to absorb the pure Spiritual Qi within the Spirit Stones.


    It was worth mentioning that as Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Technique improved day by day, the Spiritual Qi in his body was undergoing a transformation.


    Spiritual Qi transformed into Demonic Qi! This was the sign that one cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique successfully.


    Originally, it was a tough task for him to transform all the Spiritual Qi in his body into Demonic Qi.


    This was because Demonic Qi could be said to be the combination of Spiritual Qi and soul power. At the same time, it also needed the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s assistance.


    It was time-consuming to refine a strand of Demonic Qi.


    Nonetheless, if Demonic Qi were used to activate Demon-Devouring Battle Art, its power would be several times stronger.


    Therefore, turning Spiritual Qi into Demonic Qi was the most important task for the practitioner of the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Gu! Come out to work!¡±


    Zhou Feng absorbed Spiritual Qi while the Demon-Devouring Gu assisted him.


    After receiving Zhou Feng¡¯s command, the Demon Devouring Gu began to absorb Spiritual Qi.


    The progress bar on the skill panel began to increase along with this process.


    The rate of increase was not fast, but it was not too slow either. One could feel that the progress bar was increasing bit by bit.


    It was just that the price was a little high. Many Spirit Stones had turned into mere stones in just a short while.


    This was the reason Zhou Feng usually did not use Spirit Stones to speed up the progress bar. It consumed too many Spirit Stones, and Spirit Stones were precious resources that could be exchanged for many things.


    ¡°It¡¯s finally full!¡±


    After consuming more than half of his Spirit Stones, Zhou Feng breathed a sigh of relief. The progress bar on the skill panel was finally full. He could draw a new passive skill now.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart didn¡¯t waver at all.


    In the beginning, he might still have a trace of anticipation.


    But that trace of anticipation was gone after giving this command so many times. Anyway, he could draw again after some time.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Amorous Prodigal Heart: Your Charm +1! And every time you experience a relationship, your Charm will increase by 1 point! (Max: 10 points)!


    ¡°Wait, what¡­ What is this!?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this passive skill, a few black lines appeared on his forehead.


    This passive skill was too ridiculous!


    ¡®Every time you experience a relationship? I¡­¡¯


    At that moment, he didn¡¯t know what to say. This skill seemed to be utterly useless!


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s predicament, it was impossible to fall in love or anything.


    And what was the use of this charm? Could it be that it made him even more handsome?


    ¡°Forget it! Forget it! It¡¯s impossible for every passive skill to be useful. Moreover, adding a little charm isn¡¯t considered a loss! Anyway, it¡¯s not all for nothing!¡±


    Zhou Feng shook his head. Drawing this passive skill couldn¡¯t be considered a loss, right!


    It could be said that he didn¡¯t gain much, but it wasn¡¯t a loss..

 Chapter 93 - Acting Tonight

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°He succeeded on his first pill refinement? And he even caught Pill Master Yuan¡¯s attention?¡±


    Han Ming was bewildered when he received this piece of news.


    It was too sudden!


    How did Zhou Feng suddenly have the potential to become a Pill Master?


    If Zhou Feng were just a normal Soul Altar disciple that had the Grand Elder as his backer, Han Ming would still dare to make a move.


    After all, a fight between true disciples was allowed by the sect.


    As long as it wasn¡¯t too excessive, no one could use this as an excuse to make a move.


    In addition, the Grand Elder wasn¡¯t a person who protected his own children. As long as Han Ming paid a certain price, he would be able to calm down the Grand Elder.


    However, it would be difficult to deal with him if an additional layer of identity, such as Pill Master, was added!


    Moreover, it was such a young Pill Master.


    The most important point was that the sect¡¯s own disciples were not outsiders.


    Currently, the Tri-Gu Sect had three Pill Masters stationed in different places.


    These three Pill Masters had a cooperative relationship with the sect. Among them, the one who cooperated the most was only Pill Master Yuan.


    The other two Pill Masters were not completely biased toward the Tri-Gu Sect. They just needed the Tri-Gu Sect to collect the pill refinement materials.


    Therefore, the Tri-Gu Sect had always wanted to nurture their own Pill Master.


    They had paid a huge price to build the Medicine Tower and invite Pill Master Yuan to stay.


    They sent in numerous young disciples every year to see if they could nurture a Pill Master.


    However, after so many years, they had only managed to nurture an apprentice who could only refine pills at the Qi Condensation realm.


    It was precisely because of this that the sect placed great importance on every disciple who had the talent to refine pills.


    It was believed that it would not be long before someone would come into contact with Zhou Feng.


    At that time, it would basically be impossible to target Zhou Feng.


    ¡®No! I have to use this opportunity to make a move! Most of the higher-ups are tied down by the Voodoo Cult right now!


    ¡®There are also the Bloodthirsty and Penta-Poison factions that are competing against each other. If I don¡¯t take advantage of this opportunity, then the Purple Jade Bell will never return!¡¯


    The more Han Ming thought about it, the more he felt he wouldn¡¯t have a chance anymore if he didn¡¯t make a move now.


    Considering that Zhou Feng was only displaying his potential now, Han Ming thought that he would only pay a certain price even if he were discovered in the end.


    As long as he obtained the Purple Jade Bell, whatever price he had to pay was worth it.


    At that time, if the Purple Jade Bell transformed into a spiritual artifact, he could even try to get rid of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Han Ming gnashed his teeth. ¡®I¡¯ll go all out!¡¯


    Han Ming had already planned to abandon his entire clan and wait for the Purple Jade Bell to return.


    Then, he would directly take his clan¡¯s several hundred years of savings and leave.


    In any case, the higher-ups of the sect had their hands full with the Voodoo Cult. This was definitely a good opportunity to leave the sect.


    ¡­


    ¡®If I want to make a move, I can only do it tonight!¡¯


    Senior Brother Mo was currently concocting a medicinal powder.


    Judging from that old fellow¡¯s attitude, he definitely wanted to pass on his mantle to Zhou Feng.


    If he didn¡¯t make a move now, then enduring humiliation all these years would be meaningless.


    Moreover, he had to take advantage of the fact that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t receive the sect¡¯s attention to make a move.


    Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have a chance in the future.


    ¡®I definitely can¡¯t let him pass the pill refinement test tomorrow!¡¯


    He didn¡¯t dare to kill Zhou Feng directly. After all, killing someone in the Medicine Tower was too easy to expose. Still, it would be much simpler if he were to tamper with the pill cauldron.


    Although Zhou Feng had succeeded on his first try and was even regarded as a future Pill Master by many people, it was only a possibility. Zhou Feng would not be a real Pill Master if he did not successfully refine a grade-1 pill.


    At present, Senior Brother Mo was concocting a very ordinary powder. It did not have any special uses.


    Its only use was to affect the fusion of the medicinal essence, greatly affecting the rate of pill formation.


    Most importantly, this powder would disappear after being burned by the cauldron fire. It was challenging for ordinary people to discover it.


    As long as that old fellow did not personally check the cauldron, those apprentices couldn¡¯t discover it.


    Senior Brother Mo would obtain the old fellow¡¯s inheritance when Zhou Feng failed to refine the pill.


    Zhou Feng had come to the Medicine Tower to stay out of the limelight, yet he might never have thought that others would ruin his plans.


    ¡®Cultivating like this is too slow!¡¯


    It was not easy for Zhou Feng to channel his Spiritual Qi and soul power to the Demon-Devouring Gu to transform them into Demonic Qi.


    After all this time, his realm had only advanced by a tiny bit.


    At this point, Zhou Feng would probably need a few months to forge a Grade-8 Soul Altar.


    In fact, a few months was not enough time because he still had many things to deal with.


    Refining the Vital Gu, nurturing the Purple Jade Bell, transforming Demonic Qi, and cultivating the Demon-Devouring Technique¡­ He simply had no time to deal with these f*cking matters one at a time.


    At this time, the disadvantage of not having enough talent was fully displayed.


    Zhou Feng had never been troubled by his own talent in the past because he had basically never encountered any bottlenecks.


    His path of cultivation could be said to be smooth sailing, breaking through to the Soul Altar realm in just half a year.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng could not continue to break through as brainlessly as before.


    After reaching this step, he needed to start cultivating slowly and rely on the grinding process to grind his way up bit by bit.


    ¡®Looks like I can¡¯t be so idle anymore!¡¯


    Apart from cultivating slowly, Zhou Feng actually had two other methods that could rapidly increase his strength.


    The first method was the passive method of continuously stacking and collecting souls. Every time he killed a cultivator, it was possible for him to collect souls.


    This one soul could increase his soul power, meaning his cultivation speed would definitely increase the more he killed. And most importantly, this method didn¡¯t have any side effects.


    The second method was the Demon-Devouring Technique. This was the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s method to increase one¡¯s cultivation quickly.


    They only needed to use the Demon-Devouring Seal on someone and then use the Demon-Devouring Technique to devour that person, gaining everything of theirs. Compared to relying on Soul Harvesting, this method was much faster.


    Devouring a few more people might allow the practitioner to forge a Grade-1 Soul Altar directly.


    However, the disadvantages were also very obvious. The side effects were big, and the success rate was low.


    When one used the Demon-Devouring Technique to devour a person, they would easily develop schizophrenia, their Spiritual Qi would clash, and their Soul Altar would be polluted.


    Using the Demon-Devouring Seal to pollute a person and then devour them successfully had never been attempted before.


    ¡®This hunting plan must be resumed! Otherwise, this slow cultivation will be too torturous!¡¯


    After thinking about it, again and again, Zhou Feng still could not bear such a slow cultivation speed.


    After experiencing the rocket-like speed from before, it was hard for him to accept this slow cultivation speed.


    He planned to resume the hunting plan and start with the Flying Eagle Society!


    Although Zhao Wu was dead, this did not stop him from targeting Flying Eagle Society..

 Chapter 94 - A Decisive Sneak Attack

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng could quickly increase his cultivation with the first two methods.


    In fact, there was another more direct method, but there were too many uncertainties.


    That was to obtain more passive skills.


    If Zhou Feng could obtain more passive skills, his strength would increase.


    However, quickly obtaining passive skills was a problem that was worth studying.


    At present, he had discovered that the skill panel¡¯s progress bar would speed up if he absorbed a large amount of Spiritual Qi. Other than that, the progress bar would only speed up through the Demon-Devouring Gu and Soul Harvesting.


    Thinking about it, if he wanted to speed up the progress bar, he would basically need to obtain additional energy?


    Zhou Feng made a simple guess.


    Extracting a passive skill required energy, and the skill panel could only obtain energy through Zhou Feng.


    Therefore, every time he absorbed a large amount of Spiritual Qi, the progress bar¡¯s progress would increase.


    ¡®If that¡¯s really the case, isn¡¯t the Demon-Devouring Technique the perfect fit?¡¯


    Zhou Feng found that the Demon-Devouring Technique was very suitable for him.


    The Demon-Devouring Technique could completely devour everything in the target, including the opponent¡¯s Spiritual Qi.


    As long as Zhou Feng devoured a person, he could speed up the progress bar. It seemed that he had to master the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    He also had to master the Demon-Devouring Battle Art and the Demon-Devouring Armor.


    ¡®Oh right! I can also start to try raising Gu!¡¯


    The more Zhou Feng pondered, the more he felt troubled.


    Why was this path of cultivation so troublesome? Couldn¡¯t it be a little more simple and crude?


    ¡®Wait!? There¡¯s someone?¡¯


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng felt a trace of danger.


    This feeling was as if someone was spying on him.


    What was going on? Someone had dared to make a move in the Medicine Tower!?


    One had to know that this was the center of the Medicine Tower. Once there was any movement, it would be easy to attract a large group of people.


    There were quite a few old Soul Altar cultivators guarding the Medicine Tower.


    Even an Elder had been stationed there, but he seemed to have left the Medicine Tower in order to deal with the Voodoo Cult.


    ¡°Heaven-Sealing Formation!¡±


    Without waiting for Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction, a black figure instantly slipped into his room.


    Then, a formation was activated, enveloping the entire room.


    Wasn¡¯t this familiar formation the Heaven-Sealing Formation Han Qi had used during their battle?


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s room was sealed by the Heaven-Sealing Formation. No sound or movement could be heard from inside.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Han Ming, who was completely wrapped in black, didn¡¯t say much using the formation. He immediately chose to attack.


    That¡¯s right! The black-clothed man who had just sneaked in was Han Ming.


    Han Ming had actually sneaked into the Medicine Tower and found Zhou Feng¡¯s room accurately.


    After the sky turned dark, he took advantage of the fact that everyone had returned to their rooms.


    Han Ming found an opportunity and rushed into Zhou Feng¡¯s room. He used the Heaven-Sealing Formation and sealed the room¡¯s interior into a space.


    ¡®As long as I get the Purple Jade Bell, I can immediately retreat!¡¯


    In Han Ming¡¯s mind, ambushing Zhou Feng and taking back the Purple Jade Bell shouldn¡¯t take too much time. He would still have enough time to escape from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Therefore, swiftly killing Zhou Feng was the most important part of this operation. He had to kill Zhou Feng instantly so that he wouldn¡¯t attract attention.


    For this, Han Ming had prepared three Essence-Breaking Needles!


    Essence-Breaking Needles! Each of these was a soul artifact that could penetrate any Spiritual Qi defense.


    The Essence-Breaking Needles were powerful disposable soul artifacts.


    They were usually kept on the Soul Altar. The Essence-Breaking Needles had to be used as a killing move because they would be useless after one use.


    Three tiny silver needles whizzed over.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡± Zhou Feng subconsciously summoned the Purple Jade Bell.


    To be honest, he didn¡¯t quite react.


    His days in the Medicine Tower had been too peaceful, causing his vigilance to drop quite a bit. In addition, he was confident in his perception, so he would detect anyone that got close to him.


    All these reasons caused him to fall into a trap of his own making.


    Zhou Feng never expected someone to be so decisive and suddenly sneak into the Medicine Tower to attack him. They even managed to hide from his super-strong perception.


    Han Ming hid from Zhou Feng¡¯s perception because he used a concealment talisman.


    It could be said that in order to end the battle quickly, Han Ming had made ample preparations.


    The Purple Jade Bell slowly appeared, and a purple curtain of light enveloped Zhou Feng.


    Unexpectedly, the three Essence-Breaking Needles broke through the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s curtain of light.


    ¡®As expected! This kid really refined the Purple Jade Bell!¡¯


    Han Ming looked at the Purple Jade Bell, and his breathing instantly became heavier.


    As long as he obtained the Purple Jade Bell, he would be able to fly far away!


    Although he had wasted three Essence-Breaking Needles, which made Han Ming¡¯s heart ache a little, it was all worth it.


    Not only did the Essence-Breaking Needles break through the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s light curtain, but they even broke through Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Armor outside his body.


    It was not a joke to specifically counter Spiritual Qi protection.


    ¡®That was close!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt a sharp pain in his chest, but the three Essence-Breaking Needles were blocked.


    This was because of the passive Bone Coating.


    The three Essence-Breaking Needles didn¡¯t harm Zhou Feng due to Bone Coating¡¯s damage reduction and his terrifying physical body.


    ¡°How is this possible? They didn¡¯t kill him!?¡±


    Han Ming, who was originally full of confidence, couldn¡¯t hold himself back when he saw this. His eyes were filled with disbelief.


    Impossible! It was impossible for someone to rely on their physical body to withstand these Essence-Breaking Needles.


    Moreover, this person in front of him had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm!


    ¡°Die!¡±


    After stopping the Essence-Breaking Needles, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression instantly darkened while pitch-black Demonic Qi slowly surged out of his body.


    Compared to before, Zhou Feng¡¯s current battle prowess was more fearsome.


    After breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, he had been unable to consolidate his strength due to the various hidden injuries in his body.


    Even so, he had still killed Han Qi head-on.


    Although he had used underhanded methods, Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess was formidable.


    After catching and consuming the spirit fish, more than half of the hidden injuries in his body had been eliminated. Thus, he could now harness more power turning it into raw explosive physical strength!


    Zhou Feng threw a seemingly plain punch, which was imbued with Demonic Qi.


    ¡°You!¡±


    An armor instantly rose up from Han Ming¡¯s body. This was an ordinary soul artifact. Although its defensive power couldn¡¯t compare to the Purple Jade Bell, it was still pretty good.


    However, a huge force penetrated Han Ming¡¯s entire body.


    Armor Piercing Spear! Aura Blade!


    Two passive skills were triggered instantly.


    A mouthful of blood spurted out of Han Ming¡¯s mouth..

 Chapter 95 - I Hate You!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Under the passive buffs of the Armor-Piercing Spear and Aura Blade, Han Ming couldn¡¯t withstand Zhou Feng¡¯s violent attack.


    ¡°How could you be so strong!?¡±


    Han Ming only now realized that he had been a little careless.


    He had been under the impression he could rely on the concealment talisman to sneak into Zhou Feng¡¯s room and successfully launch a sneak attack.


    However, in reality, not only did Zhou Feng block the Essence-Breaking Needles, but his strength was also far beyond his imagination.


    ¡°Diamond talisman!¡±


    After realizing that he had underestimated Zhou Feng, Han Ming immediately used the diamond talisman to stall for some time.


    However, the Purple Jade Bell above Zhou Feng¡¯s head moved slightly and shattered the diamond talisman¡¯s light shield.


    Zhou Feng threw another punch while a demonic avatar slowly appeared behind him, copying his action.


    The pitch-black Demonic Qi was like a tide, carrying his fist down.


    ¡°Penta-Poison Shield!¡±


    Han Ming¡¯s pupils contracted rapidly. He did not dare to take another punch head-on. He immediately used a life-saving soul artifact.


    A purple shield with five types of poisonous objects carved on it rose up. Each of them was like a living creature, breathing out poisonous gas.


    It had to be said that the Han Clan had a very deep foundation. At the very least, they did not lack all kinds of soul artifacts.


    With the Essence-Breaking Needles, the armor on his body, and the Penta-Poison Shield, Han Ming already had six soul artifacts against Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fist collided with the Penta-Poison Shield with a muffled sound.


    The sound of a broken bone echoed.


    Zhou Feng bit his lower lip tightly, not uttering a single word.


    The strange Demonic Qi continued to flow like a long river.


    Zhou Feng punched eight times in a row, each time hitting the center of the Penta-Poison Shield.


    Han Ming tried to counterattack, but Zhou Feng sensed it in advance and dodged.


    In the end, Han Ming had no choice but to use the Penta-Poison Shield to block the hits in order to survive.


    ¡®Madman! He¡¯s really a madman!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s silent but crazy fighting style scared Han Ming.


    Why!? Zhou Feng had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm, but his physical body was terrifying while the quality of this Spiritual Qi crushed Han Ming.


    Also, why could every attack ignore the Penta-Poison Shield!?


    Although the invisible force that could penetrate the Penta-Poison Shield was very weak, the shield could not withstand many attacks like this.


    ¡®An opportunity!¡¯


    Han Ming was frightened by Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy fighting style and subconsciously revealed a sliver of an opportunity.


    Zhou Feng just happened to detect this sliver of opportunity.


    The Demonic Qi condensed into a tentacle, and the Purple Jade Bell above his head vibrated at the same time.


    The bell sound echoed throughout the entire room. Fortunately, this place was sealed by the Heaven-Sealing Formation. Otherwise, the entire Medicine Tower would be alarmed.


    The Penta-Poison Shield that Han Ming relied on to protect his life was crushed into pieces.


    ¡°This¡­ The Purple Jade Bell has already begun to transform!?¡±


    After Han Ming felt the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s power, he realized that it had already begun to transform in the direction of a spiritual artifact.


    The Purple Jade Bell should have originally been his!


    After the Penta-Poison Shield was shattered, Han Ming was bound by the tentacles formed by Demonic Qi.


    ¡°Penta-Poison Pearl!¡±


    The pale-faced Han Ming did not dare to hold back at all. If this continued, he was afraid that he would have to stay here.


    A purple pearl faintly emitted light, cutting off the pitch-black tentacles.


    ¡®Another soul artifact!¡¯ Zhou Feng frowned.


    Although he was stronger than Han Ming, the latter had too many soul artifacts.


    Sure enough, after reaching the Soul Altar realm, his opponents became much more difficult to deal with.


    Fortunately, when they had started fighting, he secretly spread the modified Carefree Powder in the air.


    After calculating the time, Han Ming¡¯s body had already accumulated a lot of the Carefree Powder¡¯s poison.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Am I poisoned?¡±


    Han Ming also realized that something was wrong with his body.


    His whole body started to heat up, his heart was beating fast, and his eyes were red.


    Poisoned? Impossible! He had the Penta-Poison Gu in his body, so he was immune to most toxins.


    In addition, he had the Verdant Wood Bead, so he was immune to all poisons.


    How could he be poisoned?


    Soon, a ¡®pillar¡¯ that could support the sky awakened!


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    Han Ming kept breathing heavily, and his posture was a little unnatural.


    At that moment, a trace of regret began to fill Han Ming¡¯s heart.


    That¡¯s right! He regretted it! He regretted that he had been too decisive and had come to find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    Thinking back, he was quite proud of himself because Zhou Feng would never have thought that someone would sneak into the Medicine Tower and attack him.


    However, things did not develop as Han Ming had expected.


    On the contrary, the strength that Zhou Feng had displayed far exceeded his imagination.


    Han Ming felt that he could not even talk about getting the Purple Jade Bell back.


    Now, whether he could escape or not was a problem.


    ¡®I should have thought of it long ago!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had been able to kill Han Qi even though the latter had the Purple Jade Bell.


    This was not an accident. It was because he was strong enough.


    Han Ming had committed the crime of arrogance from the very beginning. He had tacitly admitted that he could crush Zhou Feng.


    Seeing that Han Ming had started to tremble, Zhou Feng waved his fists, and the Demonic Qi outside his body surged crazily.


    One punch cracked half of Han Ming¡¯s body. Even though he had a soul armor, Han Ming still could not withstand it.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were even brighter at this moment. During this battle, he seemed to get a deeper understanding of the Demon-Devouring Battle Art.


    He could devour and spit freely with one punch and a kick. The Spiritual Qi in his body transformed into Demonic Qi very smoothly.


    The pale Han Ming lost his mind.


    ¡°Do you think you¡¯ve won? Impossible!¡±


    Han Ming¡¯s face distorted, madness taking over him.


    The floating Penta-Poison Pearl was rapidly enlarged. Hazy purple poisonous gas gushed out, and its entire body emitted a beautiful brilliance.


    Han Ming had chosen to detonate the Penta-Poison Pearl!


    Speaking of which, the Penta-Poison Pearl could be considered a top-grade soul artifact.


    It was refined with five types of poisonous substances. It could summon the shadows of these five types of poisonous substances to engage in battle.


    Unfortunately, before the Penta-Poison Pearl could display its proper battle strength, Han Ming chose to detonate it.


    Zhou Feng felt a powerful force tearing his body apart.


    ¡°Suppress!¡±


    He used the Purple Jade Bell on his head to suppress the tearing force.


    After a few days of research, Zhou Feng had discovered a critical function of the Purple Jade Bell.


    That was suppression!


    When the Purple Jade Bell was fully activated, it could explode with a force that suppressed everything.


    Tens of thousands of lights exploded, and the monstrous impact caused by the Penta-Poison Pearl¡¯s detonation was suppressed.


    Han Ming¡¯s body twisted, and his hand covered his crotch as he gnashed his teeth and said, ¡°Ah! This should have been my spiritual artifact!¡±


    Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the Penta-Poison Pearl¡¯s detonation power to break through the Heaven-Sealing Formation and then escape.


    Unfortunately, the Purple Jade Bell destroyed his plans.


    The worst part was that the Purple Jade Bell belonged to his Han Clan! It was an heirloom that the Han Clan had been nurturing for more than ten generations!


    He hated it!


    Also! Zhou Feng, this despicable person, drugged him with aphrodisiacs!


    Given his body¡¯s reaction, even if Han Ming was a fool, he knew that he had been drugged with aphrodisiacs..

 Chapter 96 - The Big Gift Bag

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°You can¡¯t kill me! I have a strong backer!¡±


    At his wit¡¯s end, Han Ming began to threaten Zhou Feng in a very old-fashioned way. He hoped that Zhou Feng would spare his life on account of Huang Yang.


    As long as Zhou Feng had a hint of fear in his heart, he might be able to take this opportunity to find a way to live.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng turned a deaf ear to what Han Ming was saying.


    He did not speak during battle and did not listen to what his opponent was saying. This was already a habit of his.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    A wave of desperate wails resounded throughout the room as Han Ming¡¯s life came to an end.


    Even though Han Ming was wearing a treasured armor, Zhou Feng tore him in half. He then severed his head to ensure that there would not be any accidents.


    The head that Zhou Feng had severed was filled with endless regret.


    Han Ming had always thought that Han Qi was a piece of trash, but now that he thought about it, he was also a piece of trash.


    He had done an utterly stupid thing before coming to claim Zhou Feng¡¯s life.


    Han Ming had emptied his clan¡¯s treasury and stored it in his ring to escape from the Tri-Gu Sect after taking back the Purple Jade Bell. He had even been audacious enough to steal some of the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s inventory.


    But now, everything would belong to Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    Not only did he deliver it to Zhou Feng himself, he even gave him a big gift bag.


    Han Ming could not suppress the emotions in his heart before his death. He had even wanted to throw his head back and shout, ¡°I¡¯m a f*cking idiot!¡±


    Unfortunately, it was too late. He had misjudged Zhou Feng¡¯s strength and misjudged his own strength. Thus, Han Ming suffered a crushing defeat.


    ¡®I¡¯ve been slacking off a little during this period!¡¯


    Zhou Feng threw Han Ming¡¯s head to the side and panted slightly.


    He admitted that he had been too carefree in the Medicine Tower.


    He had almost been ambushed successfully!


    Zhou Feng might have already been a corpse if not for his passive skill.


    After resting for a while, Zhou Feng dealt with the corpse.


    This time, Zhou Feng had learned his lesson and dug out the Gu in Han Ming¡¯s body.


    Although this Gu died together with Han Ming, its carcass had a certain value.


    Next were the precious armor and Penta-Poison Shield on Han Ming¡¯s body.


    It was a pity that the Essence-Breaking Needles and the Penta-Poison Shield were severely damaged during the battle.


    Basically, they couldn¡¯t be used anymore.


    ¡®No storage bag?¡¯


    After searching for some time, Zhou Feng found that Han Ming didn¡¯t have a storage bag on him.


    This was strange!


    Generally speaking, cultivation above the Soul Altar realm would have storage equipment.


    Storage bags were the most common storage items.


    ¡®Eh? This ring¡­¡¯


    Soon, he found the storage ring on Han Ming¡¯s hand.


    ¡®Could it be that this person used a storage ring?¡¯


    This storage ring was much better than a storage bag, and its value was much higher.


    The storage ring was small and convenient, and the storage space was big enough.


    Secondly, it had a strong resistance to attacks, so there was no need to worry about being damaged in battle.


    That¡¯s right! Because of its materials, the storage bag could easily be damaged in battle, causing the storage space to collapse.


    Moreover, the storage bag was also easy to steal.


    As for the storage ring, it didn¡¯t have the same flaws as the storage bag. Some storage rings even had a defensive function.


    ¡°It is a storage ring!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes instantly lit up. He held the storage ring in his hand and then used his soul power to erase the imprint on it. He then used his soul power to detect what was inside the ring.


    It would have been better if he hadn¡¯t seen its content. The moment he saw it, he was shocked.


    ¡®One¡­ This is a mountain made of Spirit stones!?¡¯


    Other than that, there were all kinds of special medicinal herbs, minerals, and Gus.


    ¡®Damn! How many things did he have?¡¯


    Zhou Feng even saw a lot of soul artifacts, pills, cultivation techniques, talismans, and so on. They were placed in different locations.


    The ring¡¯s storage space was also large enough. Even after putting so many things in it, there was still more than half unused space.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Did he run into a stroke of luck? Did he just deliver himself to my doorstep?¡±


    Zhou Feng was astounded. This was simply a good person who had given him so many things.


    This was great! He even had the materials to practice pill refinement.


    Before this, Zhou Feng¡¯s passion for becoming a Pill Master wasn¡¯t very high.


    He had always had the mentality that if he could do it, he would do it. If he couldn¡¯t, he wouldn¡¯t do it.


    In order to become a Pill Master, not only did one need talent, but they also needed a lot of practice.


    And practice meant that they needed to expend a lot of resources. Not to mention the exorbitant prices of the pill formulas.


    Just the medicinal ingredients for pill refinement, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t afford to expend them.


    Not to mention, his cultivation aptitude wasn¡¯t that good. He also didn¡¯t have a backer, so how could he expend so many resources?


    But it was different now!


    Zhou Feng could do many things thanks to this super express delivery.


    ¡°Right! Has Soul Harvesting been triggered?¡±


    Zhou Feng put on the storage ring and checked his Soul Altar.


    Soul Harvesting had been triggered!


    Another wisp of soul power had appeared on his Soul Altar, and he vaguely felt that he was about to break through.


    It would probably take two or three days for him to forge the Grade-8 Soul Altar.


    Such a speed of advancement was definitely not considered slow. After all, he had forged his Grade-9 Soul Altar not long ago.


    Compared to ordinary people, this speed could be said to be terrifyingly fast.


    At that moment, the Heaven-Sealing Formation in the room slowly dissipated.


    In order to avoid being discovered, Zhou Feng quickly cleaned up the scene.


    He placed Han Ming¡¯s body into his storage ring and tidied up the room.


    ¡®Speaking of which, there¡¯s still room for improvement in this Carefree Powder! Although it¡¯s effective in battle, its effect is still not strong enough!¡¯


    As he tidied up, Zhou Feng recalled the Carefree Powder from before.


    It had to be said that this modified Carefree Powder was quite good. It was not easy to be discovered in battle, and it had a certain effect.


    However, the drug¡¯s effect did not seem to be strong enough. The Carefree Powder was mainly used as support during his battle with Han Ming.


    The real reason for Han Ming¡¯s defeat was that Zhou Feng was too strong.


    With all kinds of passive buffs, together with the Purple Jade Bell, the various methods that Han Ming had prepared were all neutralized. In the end, Han Ming was forcefully suppressed.


    In reality, the Carefree Powder only had a slight interference effect.


    This had to be further improved!


    Zhou Feng thought that the Carefree Powder could definitely be used as an extraordinary move. This kind of drug that purely stimulated one¡¯s desire was really hard to guard against.


    Basically, no one would have expected that someone would be so cheap as to use an aphrodisiac to plot against their opponent in battle.


    This could easily achieve the effect of a sneak attack.


    To be honest, every time Zhou Feng saw his opponent¡¯s face turn red and reveal an incredulous expression, he felt especially good.


    It just so happened that he had received a big gift package from Han Ming, allowing him to experiment to his heart¡¯s content.


    Zhou Feng could even try to create a new pill formula! Using pill refining methods to concoct a better version of the Carefree Powder? This wasn¡¯t impossible!

 Chapter 97 - Leng Maner

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At dawn, the usually calm Medicine Tower became noisy.


    In the past, most people in the Medicine Tower would be studying and researching all kinds of medicinal ingredients.


    But today, everyone had a tacit understanding and headed to the pill refinement room because Zhou Feng would refine pills for the second time.


    If one successfully refined pills for the first time was due to luck, then successfully refining pills for the second time was not luck.


    This meant that the Medicine Tower had a high chance of welcoming an official sect-raised Pill Master.


    No matter what, it had to be close.


    Therefore, many people were standing outside to watch early in the morning.


    Coincidentally, Senior Brother Mo saw the surging crowd, and a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.


    When had this occurred again in the Medicine Tower?


    ¡®HMPH! I want to see how you will succeed in refining pills today!¡¯


    He had already tampered with the furnace and the medicinal ingredients Zhou Feng would use.


    The purpose was to make Zhou Feng fail in refining pills.


    ¡°Look! Who¡¯s that?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­¡±


    ¡°Could it be Eldest Senior Sister dressed in white?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    While Senior Brother Mo was still plotting in secret, the crowd at the scene once again stirred up a commotion.


    The reason was very simple. A woman was flying in the sky from the horizon.


    The woman flying in the sky had skin as white as snow, her eyes were watery, and her features were as beautiful as a painting. Her white clothes fluttered in the air like a blooming snow lotus.


    When coupled with the rising sun, it could be said that the aura she exuded was overbearing. She was in high spirits and extremely charming.


    For a moment, many people present were dumbstruck.


    In the Tri-Gu Sect, only the Sect Leader¡¯s daughter could have such grace. Her name was Leng Maner, and she was known as the Eldest Senior Sister.


    This was a truly blessed daughter of the heavens. She had been held in the hands of the Sect Leader since she was young, and she could enter and leave the sect¡¯s treasury as she pleased.


    She was not even 20 years old this year, yet she had already forged a Grade-1 Soul Altar.


    She had directly crushed all the people in the sect, possessed a spirit weapon on her body, and even a Grade-1 Soul Altar Snow Condor was her mount.


    Now that the Sect Leader was heavily injured, who knew how many true disciples hoped to win Leng Maner¡¯s heart.


    This would not only help them compete for the Sect Leader¡¯s position but also be able to kiss her.


    Unfortunately, Leng Maner usually lived in seclusion, and basically, not many people had the opportunity to come into contact with her.


    But why did she come to the Medicine Tower today? Could it be for Zhou Feng? If it was a new Pill Master, it was indeed worth Leng Maner¡¯s time to come personally.


    Roping in a Pill Master was of utter importance to the Sect Leader¡¯s faction.


    Leng Maner slowly landed on the roof and indifferently glanced at her surroundings.


    Immediately, most of the people in the surroundings held their breaths. This slight glance was incomparably beautiful, giving people a feeling of not being able to look at her directly.


    Thus, a bizarre phenomenon formed at the scene.


    Most of the people stood stiffly like primary school students that a teacher was inspecting. They didn¡¯t even dare to breathe loudly.


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng walked over slowly with his head lowered from the side.


    Leng Maner, who was on the roof, happened to notice Zhou Feng and immediately looked over.


    Then, everyone followed her gaze and shifted their attention to Zhou Feng.


    For a moment, Zhou Feng was the focus of everyone¡¯s attention.


    ¡®Danger!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Battle Instinct was triggered, so he immediately assumed there was danger.


    Zhou Feng raised his head slightly and looked at Leng Maner.


    Both parties met each other¡¯s eyes at that moment.


    ¡®So Beautiful? Grade-1 Soul Altar realm? So strong!¡¯


    The moment Zhou Feng looked at Leng Maner, a hint of surprise flashed past his eyes.


    The white jade-like face revealed a coral-like color. Her skin was as white as snow, and her features were like a painting. She stood on the roof, like a white camellia swaying in the wind.


    The most important thing was that cold and elegant temperament, which made Zhou Feng¡¯s mind a little confused.


    But soon, his attention was placed on Leng Maner¡¯s cultivation.


    She was actually a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator! Moreover, her aura was terrifying. Just standing there made him feel a sense of trepidation.


    ¡°F*ck! How dare he! He actually looked directly at Eldest Senior Sister?¡±


    ¡°Moreover, he was able to do it without changing his expression? Strong!¡±


    ¡°I only stole a glance and felt that my heart couldn¡¯t take it anymore.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After Zhou Feng and Leng Maner looked at each other for a few seconds, quite a number of people by the side began to gnash their teeth in anger.


    How dare he look directly at their goddess like this!?


    These people wished they could look directly at their goddess, but they were not confident to do so. It was a state of being both humble and jealous.


    Leng Maner noted that Zhou Feng was able to look at her without changing his expression. Her eyes moved slightly, but she did not say anything.


    She just stood there and watched quietly.


    ¡®There shouldn¡¯t be any malice! It¡¯s better to refine the pill first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly and did not continue looking at her. Instead, he walked toward the pill refinement room.


    Indeed! This woman was indeed very beautiful. She even made him feel a little moved.


    This was a feeling that had never appeared when he was facing Liu Yan.


    Still, he quickly gathered his thoughts and prepared to start refining the pill.


    After last night¡¯s sneak attack, he did not have the time to relax like before. There was no time to waste now.


    Although Leng Maner, who was on the roof, did not speak, a trace of curiosity flashed past her eyes.


    Compared to the others, Zhou Feng still looked a little pleasing to the eye. She just did not know if he could become a true Pill Master.


    Apparently, Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Amorous Prodigal Heart had played a little role.


    Charm +1 was still useful. At least, Leng Maner had a good impression of Zhou Feng.


    Seeing Zhou Feng walk into the pill refinement room, Senior Brother Mo, who was next to him, also came back to his senses. He pretended to cough twice.


    Then, he followed him into the pill refinement room.


    The people standing around with straight faces also relaxed a lot.


    ¡°Junior Brother! Today, we are refining the Bright Eyes Pill! This is a kind of pill that we use to feed spirit beasts. It makes a spirit beast¡¯s eyes bright and clear hearts¡­¡±


    Senior Brother Mo began to explain the new pill formula to Zhou Feng just like yesterday. Then, he let Zhou Feng familiarize himself with it first before he could start refining pills.


    However, what was different from yesterday was that today, perhaps because Leng Maner was present, Senior Brother Mo¡¯s tone was a little strange. He gave off a solemn appearance as if a Pill Master was guiding a disciple.


    This slight change in tone was something that Zhou Feng could discern, but he didn¡¯t care about it. As long as he could absorb the knowledge of pill refinement, nothing else was important.


    After refining the pill, he had to hurry back to his daily cultivation. At night, Zhou Feng planned to hunt and collect souls.


    ¡°Done!¡±


    Zhou Feng roughly understood how to refine this Bright Eyes Pill and immediately started refining it!


    He didn¡¯t think too much about it. He planned to practice and see what problems would appear, but he would slowly correct them when the time came..

 Chapter 98 - The Panicking Han Clan

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The cauldron¡¯s fire was continuously infused with spiritual power.


    After throwing in the medicinal ingredients to extract the essence of the medicinal properties, Zhou Feng continuously struck out various fire control seals, firmly controlling the cauldron¡¯s spirit fire.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s perceptive ability was outstanding, so the entire process was smooth.


    Most importantly, he did not have the cowardice of a novice Apprentice Pill Master.


    Under normal circumstances, many people would always be timid in the first few rounds of pill refinement. After all, pill refinement was notoriously difficult. Once this batch of pills was ruined, it was likely that they would only be able to try again after a very long time.


    Those medicinal ingredients were very expensive.


    Therefore, this caused many apprentices to feel a psychological burden. They did not have confidence in pill refinement.


    The success rate of refining pills was low to begin with, so this nervousness naturally caused everything to go wrong.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any burden at all. Since refining pills was so difficult, he would definitely waste a lot of ingredients. He would just have to test it out first.


    ¡°Did you hear that? What kind of pill is being refined today?¡±


    ¡°It seems to be a Bright Eyes Pill, a kind of pill that is specially used to feed spirit beasts!¡±


    ¡°I remember that Senior Sister has a Grade-1 Soul Altar Snow Condor. Bright Eyes Pills seem to be that Snow Condor¡¯s daily food!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s such a relationship?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The crowd outside started to whisper.


    Leng Maner¡¯s arrival had caused the entire Medicine Tower to boil.


    As for Leng Maner, she ignored the noise and only looked at Zhou Feng, who was refining pills.


    It was just as many people had guessed. Leng Maner had appeared in the Medicine Tower to see whether Zhou Feng had the potential to become a Pill Master.


    The Tri-Gu Sect had been waiting for an unknown amount of time, hoping to nurture a Pill Master on their own.


    Zhou Feng had only just revealed his potential. He only had the possibility of becoming an official Pill Master, and many factions wanted to rope him in.


    If he really became a Pill Master, then people at the level of an Elder would definitely go down.


    At present, many people were just watching and didn¡¯t take any action.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was lackluster, then their investment would be in vain. Thus, many forces only stayed on the sidelines after receiving the news.


    Only the Sect Leader¡¯s faction personally sent people, and it was even the Sect Leader¡¯s daughter.


    It seemed that the rumors circulating in the sect these days were not fake. The Sect Leader¡¯s Ice Spirit faction seemed to have been under a lot of pressure recently.


    ¡®There¡¯s something wrong with the cauldron and the medicinal herbs!¡¯


    Leng Maner¡¯s eyes flashed with a blue light. While she was observing Zhou Feng, she also discovered some suspicious things.


    The cauldron and the medicinal herbs seemed to have been handled by someone, but the handling method was extremely secretive and difficult to detect.


    If it weren¡¯t for Leng Maner¡¯s eye technique, she wouldn¡¯t have been able to discover it.


    Although Leng Maner discovered that the medicinal ingredients and the cauldron had been tampered with, she didn¡¯t intend to notify Zhou Feng. She just stood there quietly and watched.


    ¡®Oh no!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s pill refinement this time was challenging. In addition, he had a feeling that there was a thorn in his back, causing him to feel uneasy.


    This directly caused him to lose control of the flame, causing a pile of medicinal ingredients to be burnt to ashes.


    When Senior Brother Mo saw this, a trace of joy flashed across his face.


    When Senior Brother Mo saw that Zhou Feng¡¯s pill refinement had failed, he hurriedly seized this opportunity to guide Zhou Feng properly.


    ¡°Junior Brother! You can¡¯t be too anxious about the pill refinement¡­¡±


    Senior Brother Mo was enthusiastic about this matter, which could suppress Zhou Feng and allow him to be in the limelight in front of the goddess.


    Although the Bright Eyes Pill was unranked, Senior Brother Mo was still very familiar with it.


    In order to show off before Leng Maner, Senior Brother Mo told him some tricks.


    ¡°I got it! Senior Brother!¡±


    Zhou Feng noted all the tricks Senior Brother Mo has just shared.


    ¡°Oh right! I have some medicinal herbs here. I¡¯ll use my own to refine the medicinal herbs later!


    ¡°Also, I hope that some people will stop spying on me behind my back! Otherwise, I¡¯ll have no choice but to take action!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s tone was calm as he reminded the two people at a moderate pace.


    The first was naturally Senior Brother Mo. He had noticed that there was something wrong with those medicinal herbs earlier.


    Senior Brother Mo had prepared these medicinal herbs, so it was likely that he had tampered with them.


    As for the purpose, there was no need to think about it. It was nothing more than stupid reasons like jealousy and not being able to see the good in others.


    The second person he warned was Leng Maner.


    Leng Maner was using her eye technique to spy on him, causing Zhou Feng to feel uneasy and leading him to make a mistake when refining the pill.


    ¡°Uh¡­¡±


    After Senior Brother Mo heard his words, he was completely stunned, and an awkward smile appeared on his face.


    ¡®Has he discovered something? That¡¯s impossible! I handled it so carefully.¡¯


    Although Senior Brother Mo thought that he hadn¡¯t been discovered, Zhou Feng took the medicinal ingredients to refine the Bright Eyes Pill out of his storage ring.


    This meant that Senior Brother Mo¡¯s actions had been discovered.


    The glimmer in Leng Maner¡¯s eyes slowly subsided upon hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s tone, and she didn¡¯t say anything.


    ¡®Looks like my few days of peace are over¡¯ thought Zhou Feng.


    He had only lived a few days of peace, but it seemed it was impossible to live such a peaceful life.


    Ignoring everything else, just Leng Maner was a huge problem in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    The Sect Leader¡¯s daughter was a stunning beauty, so she must have a lot of pursuers.


    According to the laws of the fantasy world, only endless trouble would follow once he came into contact with Leng Maner.


    Those so-called pursuers would find trouble with Zhou Feng to eliminate the threat in the bud, even if it was basically impossible for Leng Maner and Zhou Feng to be together.


    ¡®But that¡¯s good! No one is looking for trouble with me now, so it¡¯s not easy for me to trigger Soul Harvesting!¡¯


    A few thoughts flashed through Zhou Feng¡¯s mind before he started to refine pills again.


    ¡­


    ¡°Where is he! Where is he! ? Where is he!?¡±


    ¡°Quickly gather all the Elders! Something big has happened!¡±


    ¡°The clan¡¯s treasury has been emptied?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    While Zhou Feng was slowly refining pills, the Han Clan was in chaos.


    They had finally discovered Han Ming had disappeared and that the treasury had been emptied.


    It must be known that the Han Clan had already withered, and they had three Soul Altar cultivators a few days ago.


    Other than Han Qi and Han Ming, only the old clan leader was left.


    The news of Han Qi¡¯s death had already caused a great shock, and now Han Ming¡¯s disappearance was already a major event.


    Moreover, the most terrifying thing was that the clan¡¯s treasury had been emptied. Or perhaps it could be said that most of the valuable things were gone, and only a few trashy things were left.


    These two matters had cast a shadow over the Han Clan.


    The Han Clan would probably be eliminated if this matter was not handled properly.


    Many people from the Tri-Gu Sect had been eyeing the Han Clan. A clan with an ancient inheritance, no matter what, should have some foundation!


    Now that the Han Clan was in decline, some people would not mind swallowing such a weak ancient clan.


    If the Han Clan discovered that Han Ming had emptied the treasury overnight only to hand this big gift bag to Zhou Feng, they would probably spit blood on the spot~

 Chapter 99 - Tell Him to Come to my Place Tonight

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It¡¯s done!¡±


    Zhou Feng gradually found the trick after a few failures.


    His extremely strong perception and potent Spiritual Qi allowed him to try and make mistakes repeatedly.


    At the same time, there were also the numerous medicinal herbs the Han Clan had been accumulating for God knew how long.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t feel sorry for the things that came for free. He just used them when he needed to.


    The cauldron fire was extinguished, and a wave of medicinal fragrance slowly rose.


    There were a total of 3 Bright Eyes Pills in the cauldron.


    Although there were not many of them, they were finally successfully refined.


    Moreover, it was Zhou Feng¡¯s second time refining pills, Bright Eyes Pills, no less.


    Just this potential alone made countless people feel envious.


    This was a genuine prodigy.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s perception was extremely high, so he had many advantages in refining pills.


    However, if he didn¡¯t have such talent, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to refine the Bright Eyes Pills so easily.


    ¡°He succeeded? He succeeded again!?¡±


    ¡°W-What kind of talent is this!¡±


    ¡°Given his talent, becoming a Pill Master isn¡¯t a dream!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After successfully refining another pill, many people felt that Zhou Feng would become a Pill Master in the future thanks to his talent.


    They believed that it wouldn¡¯t be long before the Medicine Tower would give birth to a true Pill Master.


    Many people revealed excited expressions on their faces when they thought of this.


    Because of the birth of a Pill Master, they could also take advantage of this opportunity to benefit.


    ¡°This¡­ Is this person¡¯s talent in pill refinement really that high? This Bright Eyes Pills, I must have studied it for at least a few years before I had a sliver of confidence!¡±


    Senior Brother Mo, who had witnessed all of this with his own eyes, still didn¡¯t dare to believe it.


    This was because he could also refine Bright Eyes Pills, but he had already studied it for several years and had even tried it countless times.


    Even so, the pill success rate was still not high.


    This was already considered outstanding in the Medicine Tower, and the others didn¡¯t even have a chance of forming a pill.


    However, Zhou Feng had only tried a few times and succeeded!


    Senior Brother Mo once again felt the difference between people.


    Leng Maner smelled the faint medicinal fragrance, and her beautiful jet-black hair swayed in the wind. She quietly departed like an elf, not leaving behind any words.


    It was as if she had come to the Medicine Tower just to confirm something.


    Only the remnant fragrance was left behind.


    And this departure had also taken away many people¡¯s hearts.


    It would have been great if such a woman could gain their favor. Unfortunately, they would probably never be able to obtain such a woman in their lifetime.


    ¡®She¡¯s finally gone!¡¯


    Zhou Feng heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Leng Maner disappear. She had given him too much pressure, after all. She also had a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything.


    This made him feel a little uneasy.


    Since he had successfully refined the pills, Zhou Feng had no intention of staying here any longer. He quickly packed up and returned to his room.


    At present, Zhou Feng had many tasks at hand.


    The first task was to tidy up the things in his storage ring. There were too many things in this storage ring. In addition, he had been too busy last night, so he did not have the time to check what was inside. Thus, he planned to carefully check what was useful in the storage ring after he returned to his room.


    After that, Zhou Feng planned to break through. He felt that he had reached a bottleneck, and his Soul Altar had already completed its first change.


    This was the Soul Harvesting¡¯s effect.


    He would have to grind for months before he could forge the Grade-8 Soul Altar if it were before.


    However, he had triggered Soul Harvesting and had almost broken through directly.


    Therefore, if Zhou Feng wanted to increase his cultivation quickly, it would not be feasible to cultivate slowly.


    His aptitude did not allow him to walk the broad path of slow cultivation. On the contrary, the steep path was more suitable for him.


    After Zhou Feng left, the crowd outside gradually dispersed.


    Moreover, they believed that Zhou Feng¡¯s success in refining pills again today would definitely attract many people to invest in him.


    Who wouldn¡¯t want to rope in a Pill Master?


    If they could tie a Pill Master to their own chariot, they would be able to use the least amount of resources to exchange for numerous pills for the next few decades.


    Furthermore, starting from the Soul Altar realm, every increase in cultivation level would increase one¡¯s lifespan by 10 years.


    Zhou Feng was only about 20 years old now. He would have at least 100-200 years of lifespan given his future cultivation. This was the time of several generations.


    Talent! Age! These were all points that were worth investing in.


    Although Zhou Feng had the Grand Elder behind him, the other Elders were not to be trifled with either. They would not hand over such a valuable piece of land to someone.


    ¡­


    ¡®This is troublesome! That old fart is going to die¡­¡¯


    At present, Senior Brother Mo was not in a good mood, but he could do nothing.


    He could not directly kill Zhou Feng, right?


    But when he thought about how the inheritance that originally belonged to him had become someone else¡¯s, Senior Brother Mo felt extremely pained.


    He had clearly endured humiliation for so long, so how could a pill-refining genius suddenly appear? This had ruined his plans.


    But no matter how bad his mood was, Senior Brother Mo still hurriedly returned to the Medicine Tower.


    He had to report this matter to that old fool.


    ¡­


    Medicine Tower! Why was it called Medicine Tower?


    The reason was very simple. There really was a tower that towered into the clouds here.


    It was said that this tower was left behind a long time ago. Later, the sect assigned it to Pill Master Yuan.


    Then, Pill Master Yuan renovated this tower and turned it into a multi-purpose building.


    Among them, the first underground floor had even invited a Formation Master to draw in Earth-Fire for pill refinement.


    The first level was used as a warehouse to store all kinds of medicinal ingredients. Further up were some medicinal fields.


    A secret puppet protected each level. Usually, only Pill Master Yuan was qualified to stay inside.


    The other apprentices couldn¡¯t stay there unless Pill Master Yuan summoned them.


    However, Senior Brother Mo was an exception. He carried out all kinds of errands for Pill Master Yuan, so he could freely enter and exit the Medicine Tower.


    Not long after, Senior Brother Mo arrived at the first level of the Medicine Tower with ease.


    Even during the day, the surroundings were still dark. Only the dim yellow lights were swaying slowly.


    Senior Brother Mo was already used to this.


    ¡°Master! Today¡­¡±


    Just like yesterday, Senior Brother Mo recounted the entire process of Zhou Feng¡¯s pill refinement in detail.


    ¡°Very good! Ask Zhou Feng to come here tonight!¡±


    Pill Master Yuan¡¯s aged voice sounded extremely tired in Senior Brother Mo¡¯s ears.


    The rotting aura was getting heavier and heavier.


    Senior Brother Mo used the dim light to take a look at where Pill Master Yuan was.


    He saw that Pill Master Yuan¡¯s body was as dry as withered wood. His deep eye sockets and sparse white hair gave people a feeling of death.


    However, Senior Brother Mo instantly felt a chill on his back. A cold and gloomy aura grabbed his neck.


    This scared him so much that he quickly lowered his head and didn¡¯t dare to peek anymore.


    ¡°Yes! Your disciple understands!¡±

 Chapter 100 - Successful Breakthrough

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any expression on his face, but he was muttering in his heart, ¡®At night? Pill Master Yuan wants to teach me pill refinement techniques personally?¡¯


    Why was this so strange? How long had it been? Pill Master Yuan was eager to teach him pill refinement techniques?


    Were pill refinement techniques so cheap these days!?


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Remember not to waste any time!¡±


    Senior Brother Mo no longer acted friendly and revealed his true face.


    After saying that, he immediately turned around and left.


    Zhou Feng watched Senior Brother Mo leave, and his brows slowly furrowed.


    This matter was too strange. It seemed like he had just arrived at the Medicine Tower not too long ago!


    He hadn¡¯t even met Pill Master Yuan more than once, yet he was suddenly valued and bestowed the opportunity to learn pill refinement techniques?


    Also, why was it necessary to impart the secret of pill refinement at night? Couldn¡¯t he impart it during the day? And he had to hide it from others so that they wouldn¡¯t discover it?


    Other than that, what made Zhou Feng even more puzzled was that Senior Brother Mo seemed to have a gloomy and cold aura circling around him.


    This gloomy and cold aura kept devouring Senior Brother Mo¡¯s vitality.


    Senior Brother Mo didn¡¯t seem to notice that his complexion was getting worse and worse.


    ¡®Trouble!¡¯


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyelids were constantly twitching as if warning him.


    This Pill Master Yuan was probably a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator, one step away from the Purple Mansion realm.


    Moreover, it was said that Pill Master Yuan¡¯s lifespan was approaching its end. Thus, he had relaxed the qualifications of the Tri-Gu disciples to enter the Medicine Tower during the past ten years.


    Zhou Feng could enter the Medicine Tower with Old Demon Gu¡¯s token because of this.


    Actually, the main reason was also because of this. If it had been a few decades ago, he wouldn¡¯t have had the chance to enter the Medicine Tower at all.


    Based on the information he had gathered, this Pill Master Yuan seemed like a ghost!


    Perhaps ordinary people would be so excited to hear that a Pill Master would personally teach them the secret of pill refinement at night.


    They would discard their suspicions, but Zhou Feng was different.


    After experiencing Han Ming¡¯s night attack, he always felt that someone wanted to harm him.


    Even when he had just met Leng Maner, Zhou Feng also suspected that she was plotting against him behind his back.


    ¡®Looks like I have to prepare!¡¯


    Zhou Feng pondered for a moment before slowly taking out the things in his storage ring.


    He planned to forge his Grade-8 Soul Altar forcefully. He had already reached the bottleneck.


    Zhou Feng was only one step away from the Grade-8 Soul Altar realm. By relying on the Level-2 Gluttony and forcefully devouring all kinds of spiritual items, he should be able to break through to the Grade-8 Soul Altar realm forcefully.


    Purple Jade Vine, Dragonfly Grass, Nine Yang Flower¡­


    These were the ingredients used to refine the Spirit Concentration Pill, which could increase a Soul Altar cultivator¡¯s power level. The difficulty of refining it was extremely high. After consuming it, one would be able to increase a trace of the divine soul.


    If frequently consumed, it would also have the effect of stabilizing one¡¯s Soul Altar.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng only knew that these materials were used to refine the Spirit Concentration Pill. He didn¡¯t have its pill formula, nor did he have the ability to refine it.


    However, these ingredients more or less had the effect of increasing the strength of one¡¯s divine soul.


    Directly eating them raw more or less had some effect, but this method would waste a lot of medicinal properties compared to refining pills.


    Still, it didn¡¯t matter. Zhou Feng had the passive Level-2 Gluttony, after all.


    ¡°In any case, I got them for free! Don¡¯t feel bad!¡± Zhou Feng comforted himself before swallowing these medicinal herbs.


    Why should he have to wait for a long time for the things he picked up for free to be buried with him when he died?


    He swallowed these medicinal herbs in a few mouthfuls with this thought in mind.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t stop there. He took out numerous Spirit Stones and continuously absorbed the Spiritual Qi within them.


    He ate the medicinal herbs recklessly and simultaneously crazily absorbed the Spiritual Qi within the Spirit Stones.


    They would definitely explode and die if it were anyone else because these herbs¡¯ medicinal energy was too potent.


    Normally, only demonic beasts would eat the medicinal herbs raw because their bodies were strong enough.


    If humans did this, it would be no different than courting death. Not to mention, it would be too much of a waste of natural resources. If others saw Zhou Feng¡¯s actions, they would probably show a pained expression.


    You are too wasteful!


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not care. He relied on his Level-2 Gluttony and Demon-Devouring Gu to forcefully devour everything.


    Not long after, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body started to heat up. His body was like a basin of water poured into a pot of oil¡ªit started to boil.


    The chaotic Spiritual Qi started to run wild while his Soul Altar was getting a bit of nourishment.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu devoured the heterogenous Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi, trying to transform them into purer Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi for Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This method is indeed suitable for me!¡±


    Feeling the bottleneck loosening bit by bit, Zhou Feng could not help but sigh.


    Compared to the slow improvement, this simple and crude method was more suitable for him.


    Although this would cause a lot of hidden dangers, these matters could be discussed later!


    He had followed the development before the governance model. Otherwise, given his talent, how long would it take for him to break through to a higher realm?


    After an unknown period, Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar began to shine brightly.


    The transformation had begun!


    The Soul Altar space began to expand, followed by a strange scene of scarlet skies and thunderclouds.


    ¡®A strange phenomenon?¡¯


    The strange phenomenon had already disappeared before Zhou Feng could see it clearly.


    ¡®Breakthrough successful! Grade-8 Soul Altar!¡¯


    Zhou Feng kicked open the door of the Grade-8 Soul Altar in an extremely violent fashion.


    Following the transformation of the Soul Altar this time, the Purple Jade Bell that had been resting in the Soul Altar seemed to have undergone some small changes.


    A circle of strange inscriptions was branded on the Purple Jade Bell.


    ¡®It¡¯s done?¡¯


    Zhou Feng slowly opened his eyes, and a ray of red light instantly shot out.


    In an instant, he felt that his entire body had become much lighter, and an obscure aura spread out.


    Breaking through to success did not take much time, but the price for doing so was that his body had become a mess again.


    The originally purer Spiritual Qi became heterogenous again, and the different attributes began to clash with each other again.


    Zhou Feng took a look inside and found that all kinds of injuries were densely packed together. Every slight movement of his would affect the injuries all over his body.


    The only advantage was that the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s effect had increased, and most of the Spiritual Qi in his body had been converted into Demonic Qi.


    ¡®It¡¯s not bad!¡¯


    He had long been used to being injured. In any case, he had the passive Self-Healing Constitution and Unyielding Heart. It wouldn¡¯t take long for his injuries to recover, and he could also take advantage of the situation to trigger Old Skin.


    Also, if he guessed correctly, he could draw the passive skill again!


    According to his past experiences, his progress bar would almost always be full every time he broke through to the next realm, and then he could draw a passive skill.


    Sure enough, Zhou Feng took a glance at the skill panel, and the progress bar was already full.


    ¡°I hope I can draw a good passive this time! Don¡¯t come up with anything that adds charm!¡±


    After all, the previous passive skill rendered him speechless to this day.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    Soon, a new passive skill was drawn.


    ¡°This is¡­ good!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened slightly.. This new passive skill seemed to be powerful!

 Chapter 101 - Turning Around and Running!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Whetstone: A good whetstone, while sharpening your sword, it will also make your body harder!


    Every time you experience a qualifying battle of the same level, your endurance will increase by 1 point.


    This was the new passive skill¡¯s description. It could be said that this passive was very strong.


    Most of the other passive skills that Zhou Feng had previously obtained were decent, but this was a passive skill that directly increased his attributes and could be stacked indefinitely.


    ¡°Endurance? This seems pretty good! In a battle of the same level, it means that I can bully someone in the same realm!¡±


    Zhou Feng analyzed it carefully.


    The existence of the passive Whetstone made the cost-effectiveness ratio of a battle very high.


    And because of the Soul Harvesting¡¯s existence, this passive skill could also be triggered during a battle.


    In other words, he needed to find people to fight constantly!?


    ¡°It seems that I won¡¯t be staying in this Medicine Tower for long!¡±


    Zhou Feng took advantage of the fact that there was still some time left and continued to study the Demon-Devouring Technique. Then, he began to concoct Carefree Powder 2.0.


    He continued his daily cultivation as usual once again.


    At the mountainside market¡­


    Ever since Qian Shang had decided to follow Zhou Feng down the same path, he no longer had to worry about gains and losses.


    He did not expand his small business. Instead, he stayed the same as before, listening to gossip every day.


    At this time, he received a message.


    ¡°The Han Clan has been taken down? What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! It seems that a Soul Altar cultivator from the Han Clan has angered a bigshot!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure about the details. I only know that the Han Clan is finished now!¡±


    ¡°Oh right! Do you know about the Voodoo Cult? I heard that the Voodoo Cult seems to have gained the upper hand over the Tri-Gu Sect!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The information network of these merchants could be said to be extremely fast.


    The news of the Han Clan¡¯s incident spread very quickly, although they did not know what exactly happened.


    However, the Han Clan was considered to be relatively out of the inner sect. After all, the Han Clan had many merchants under their banner.


    Now that the Han Clan had fallen, these merchants had also been affected.


    Other than that, in recent times, the most popular sect was the Voodoo Cult, which was fighting against the Tri-Gu Sect.


    The Tri-Gu Sect had been fighting with the Voodoo Cult for a long time now, but such news had always been kept under wraps.


    But now, the situation seemed to be a little off. Even the merchants in the mountainside market had learned about the Voodoo Cult.


    ¡°I know a little about the Voodoo Cult!¡±


    ¡°I heard that the Voodoo Cult is an ancient cult. The Cult Lord is a person with the bloodline of the Great Houngan!¡±


    ¡°The goal of these Voodoo lunatics seems to be to resurrect a Great Houngan. Moreover, they have already subdued the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghost Sect!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The merchants continued to exchange information about the Voodoo Cult.


    However, Qian Shang no longer had the patience to continue listening. It was better to go back and tell his daughter about this information and let her slowly analyze it!


    What Qian Shang didn¡¯t know was that the Tri-Gu Sect was already starting to get nervous, and many of the outer disciples were summoned back.


    This was all to deal with the Voodoo Cult.


    A crisis began to engulf the entire Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡­


    ¡°Eh? Spirit-Nurturing Method?¡±


    After Zhou Feng finished his daily cultivation, he slowly rummaged through the things in his storage ring.


    There were too many items in it, so he planned to take some time every day to sort them out.


    Then, he discovered a secret technique, the Spirit-Nurturing Method.


    This was a special secret technique to nurture a soul artifact into a spiritual artifact, and it recorded a clear method of operation.


    ¡®Nurture a soul artifact into a spiritual artifact? Nurture its spirit?


    ¡®Wait a minute! Could this be¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng seemed to have instantly understood.


    ¡®No wonder Han Ming snuck into the Medicine Tower in the middle of the night and attacked me. So, it was for the Purple Jade Bell? The Purple Jade Bell is actually a half-spiritual artifact!¡¯


    Once the Purple Jade Bell completed its transformation, then it could become a real spiritual artifact.


    One had to know! That was a spiritual artifact! According to legends, a spiritual artifact could communicate with its owner¡¯s mind, and there was no need to control it during a battle deliberately.


    A spiritual artifact would automatically engage in battle, and it would be able to coordinate with one¡¯s actions perfectly.


    Some spiritual artifacts could even form their own thoughts, giving birth to an artifact spirit that would slowly grow along with its owner.


    It was precisely because of this that spiritual artifacts were rare.


    Zhou Feng actually had a half-spiritual artifact in his hand! This feeling was like a gift from the heavens!


    ¡®What a good family! One gave me a half-spiritual artifact, while the other gave me a storage ring with a large number of resources.¡¯


    Zhou Fengdu was so moved that he didn¡¯t know what to say.


    ¡®It can quickly transform a half-spiritual artifact through a blood sacrifice¡­¡±


    ¡°The blood sacrifice material must be a Purple Mansion great demon!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    This Spirit-Nurturing Method also recorded a blood sacrifice method that could speed up the transformation of a half-spirit weapon.


    However, the blood sacrifice material was truly terrifying. Even the lowest level was a Purple Mansion great demon.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t even seen many demon beasts, much less a Purple Mansion great demon.


    Zhou Feng continued to rummage through the items in his storage ring and found some pretty good things.


    Concealment talisman, ground escape talisman, diamond talisman!


    There were actually more than ten of the three talisman seals on them. It was really strange. How come Han Ming hadn¡¯t used any of these life-saving talismans? Or did he not have enough time to use them?


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what Han Ming had been thinking, but these good things were considered to be too good for him.


    As Zhou Feng tidied up his things, the sky gradually turned dark.


    ¡®I¡¯m going to the Medicine Tower!¡¯


    Zhou Feng roughly estimated the time and felt that he should go to the Medicine Tower and take a look.


    Although he felt that there was something very wrong with Pill Master Yuan, he still planned to take a look. If it really didn¡¯t work, he would just slip away.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Night Guardian was triggered under the cover of the night, and he left the room like a ghost.


    He arrived at the Medicine Tower without alerting anyone.


    ¡®That¡¯s¡­¡¯


    Just as Zhou Feng arrived, he saw Senior Brother Mo standing at the Medicine Tower¡¯s entrance.


    However, Senior Brother Mo looked a little dazed at the moment, as if he was a robot standing there.


    ¡°You¡¯re here? Then follow me!¡±


    Senior Brother Mo, who was at the entrance, seemed to have noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s arrival and looked directly at his position.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng¡¯s Night Guardian was active, so the darkness concealed his aura.


    It was challenging for ordinary people to discover his presence. At the very least, Zhou Feng had been under the impression that Senior Brother Mo would not be able to discover him.


    But now, Senior Brother Mo had discovered Zhou Feng at a glance and then asked Zhou Feng to follow him into the Medicine Tower?


    ¡®Only a fool would enter!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses told him that the Medicine Tower was extremely dangerous.


    Once he entered, he would only be waiting for death.


    Therefore, he didn¡¯t hesitate at all and simply turned around and ran.


    ¡°What!?¡± Pill Master Yuan stood dumbstruck in the depths of the Medicine Tower..

 Chapter 102 - Anxiety

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Pill Master Yuan saw Zhou Feng running away, he was stunned.


    This was different from what he had expected!


    A Pill Master personally imparting the pill refinement method was a great temptation. He believed that no ordinary cultivator could reject this temptation, even if they didn¡¯t have the talent to refine pills.


    It would be very difficult to resist this temptation.


    Not to mention Zhou Feng, who had the talent to refine pills.


    However, he never expected Zhou Feng to immediately run away after realizing that something was wrong. He didn¡¯t even enter the Medicine Tower.


    ¡°This won¡¯t do! This is the only ingredient left for the Longevity Pill!¡±


    Pill Master Yuan would let Zhou Feng escape. This was because Zhou Feng was the last ingredient for the Longevity Pill. He was about to refine it successfully.


    It turned out that Pill Master Yuan had an agenda.


    Why had Zhou Feng been favored so quickly that he was allowed to use the cauldron to refine pills?


    This was because from the moment he had entered the Medicine Tower, Pill Master Yuan had discovered that Zhou Feng¡¯s perception was particularly terrifying.


    This was a good seedling for pill refinement, and at the same time, it was also a good material for refining the Longevity Pill.


    Longevity Pill was the pill formula that Pill Master Yuan had found from an ancient book.


    The recipe for the Longevity Pill required different parts of different people to be used as ingredients. Some parts of the recipe could even be said to be extremely absurd.


    For example, the recipe required the bones of a person¡¯s hand and the eyeballs of a talented person in swordsmanship.


    No matter how one looked at it, it seemed strange and absurd. However, no matter what, the respected Pill Master Yuan believed it.


    The reason was very simple. It was because Pill Master Yuan didn¡¯t have much time to live.


    It could even be said that Pill Master Yuan¡¯s lifespan should have been exhausted a long time ago. He had been able to survive on his last breath entirely because of all kinds of medicinal pills.


    Pill Master Yuan couldn¡¯t even leave the Medicine Tower a few years ago, and he ordered Senior Brother Mo around to handle many things.


    He had also loosened the Medicine Tower¡¯s restrictions, allowing more Tri-Gu disciples to enter the Medicine Tower to learn the art of pill refinement. Naturally, Pill Master Yuan had done that to collect the ingredients needed to refine the Longevity Pill.


    It had been so long! Could it be that the Medicine Tower really didn¡¯t have many disciples with talent in pill refinement?


    Obviously, there were, but all of these people had died.


    ¡°Even if I die. I won¡¯t pass my pill refinement skills to others!¡±


    These were the words of Pill Master Yuan back then.


    To teach a Pill Master for the Tri-Gu Sect? How was that possible!


    This was the golden goose that allowed him to settle down and accumulate wealth. Once someone else took his place, the treatment he enjoyed now would most likely cease to exist.


    Because of this, the Tri-Gu Sect had lost countless lives over the years.


    What¡¯s more terrifying, however, was that no one in the Tri-Gu Sect paid any attention to the deaths of these disciples.


    Compared to the intense competition between the outer and inner sect, the loss of these disciples was nothing. As long as Pill Master Yuan continued to provide medicinal pills to the sect, everything would be fine.


    Unfortunately, Pill Master Yuan¡¯s lifespan had been approaching its end in recent years, and he had been unable to complete most of the sect¡¯s missions.


    The higher-ups were already beginning to be dissatisfied. Not long ago, they even sent the experts stationed here to other places.


    It was precisely because of this that Pill Master Yuan began to panic.


    ¡°Paper-cut into soldiers!¡±


    The wizened-looking Pill Master Yuan gathered a trace of strength and took out two pieces of paper with his skinny hands.


    Then, an invisible spiritual power cut the two pieces of paper into two people.


    Pill Master Yuan spat out two drops of blood and dripped them on the two paper men.


    Instantly, the two paper men seemed to come to life.


    ¡°Go! Catch that kid!¡±


    The two paper men seemed to have no strength at all. They started to float out lightly as if they were flying very slowly.


    Surprisingly, they ran at breakneck speed and caught up with Zhou Feng almost in an instant.


    ¡®Are these paper men?¡¯


    Zhou Feng only felt a stream of light fly past him. Then, he saw two paper men standing in front of him.


    These two paper men were crude, but there was a hint of a fatal aura on them.


    That aura made Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stand on end.


    Without speaking too much, the two paper men intersected and turned into two streaks of light.


    ¡®Danger!¡¯


    Relying on his Battle Instinct, Zhou Feng twisted his body. He dodged the attacks, but a shallow scar was left on his face.


    Too fast! The speed of the two paper men was too fast!


    Moreover, the ends of the paper men were sharp. The injury on Zhou Feng¡¯s face was just a simple cut.


    Had Zhou Feng not dodged, he would have probably been gutted.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not dare to slack off at all. He immediately took out the Purple Jade Bell. This should be his strongest attack and defense.


    The Purple Jade Bell vibrated slightly, emitting a deafening bell sound.


    However, the strange thing was that such a loud bell sound didn¡¯t wake anyone up.


    The huge bell sound seemed to be restrained somewhere.


    ¡°Spiritual artifact? Impossible!¡±


    Pill Master Yuan, who was in the Medicine Tower, took a deep breath and revealed a surprised expression.


    He found through his perception that Zhou Feng seemed to have a spiritual artifact in his hand.


    If this was true, then he would be in trouble!


    This meant that he wouldn¡¯t be able to take down Zhou Feng in a short period, and the restrictive spell wouldn¡¯t last forever.


    If he were to be exposed, then the matter of him refining the Longevity Pill would definitely be exposed.


    He couldn¡¯t drag this on any longer!


    He had to end this battle as soon as possible.


    At that moment, Pill Master Yuan intended to take action personally.


    A gourd slowly rose, and with it in hand, Pill Master Yuan gulped down a mouthful of wine.


    Instantly, the originally withered Pill Master Yuan seemed to have been inflated, and he transformed into a muscular old man.


    Afterward, Pill Master Yuan and the two paper figures shifted their figures.


    Pill Master Yuan suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Feng and roared, ¡°Die!¡±


    For a moment, it was as if a heavenly fire had descended. The scarlet pill fire pounced toward Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s pupils constricted slightly when he saw Pill Master Yuan suddenly appear. His reaction was also swift, activating the Purple Jade Bell to defend himself.


    Then, the Demon-Devouring Armor appeared outside of Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    That wasn¡¯t all!


    While Zhou Feng activated the Purple Jade Bell, he secretly released the Carefree Powder in the surroundings.


    Moreover, it was the Carefree Powder that had been upgraded several times.


    The pill fire that looked terrifying was blocked by the purple curtain that rose from the Purple Jade Bell.


    ¡®It¡¯s not a spiritual artifact!? But it¡¯s still a half-spiritual artifact!¡±


    At that moment, Pill Master Yuan recognized that the Purple Jade Bell wasn¡¯t a spiritual artifact but a half-spiritual artifact.


    However, even a half-spiritual artifact was enough to make him restless.


    This was a half-spiritual artifact with astonishing defense. Given his skills, he really couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng in a short time.


    After all, Pill Master Yuan¡¯s main job was to refine pills, not fight.


    The pill fire just now was already his most powerful attack.


    Also, because he was too impatient, Pill Master Yuan accidentally inhaled the Carefree Powder floating in the air.


    What would happen to an old man who didn¡¯t have much lifespan and whose body was extremely weak after consuming the aphrodisiac?


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    Dark red blood spurted out of Pill Master Yuan¡¯s nose..

 Chapter 103 - Leng Maner’s Strength

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°You little brat!¡±


    The moment Pill Master Yuan inhaled the Carefree Powder, he knew what kind of poison had poisoned him.


    The Carefree Powder was like a raging fire, while his weak body was like dry wood.


    Both parties lit up the moment they touched. The aphrodisiac that Zhou Feng had researched had shown its effects once again.


    Of course, this also had to do with Pill Master Yuan¡¯s carelessness.


    In order to not attract attention, Pill Master Yuan had to take part in the battle personally. He even used his pill fire. But the thing that surprised him the most was that Zhou Feng actually had a defensive half-spiritual artifact.


    Pill Master Yuan hurriedly swallowed two pills, and the Carefree Powder was expelled out of his body.


    As a Pill Master, he might not have many other things, but he definitely had enough pills.


    ¡®As expected, this Carefree Powder is only a small path after all!¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw this, he held his breath and prepared to defend with all his strength.


    The Carefree Powder could only be used as a sneak attack at most. It was still too difficult to rely on this method to win.


    When he encountered an experienced opponent like Pill Master Yuan, said opponent countered it with a flip of his hand.


    ¡°You forced me to do this!¡±


    Pill Master Yuan knew it was impossible to win quickly with ordinary methods since Zhou Feng possessed the Purple Jade Bell. If he wanted to end the battle quickly, he would have to use unconventional methods.


    After thinking that, Pill Master Yuan swallowed three pills consecutively, and his originally weak aura immediately recovered to its peak.


    A terrifying aura slowly rose up.


    Don¡¯t think that their battle prowess was lackluster just because Pill Masters were immersed in pill refinement. In fact, some experienced Pill Masters¡¯ battle prowess was extraordinary.


    This was because these Pill Masters carried a pile of pills with them at all times, and they could consume them at any time.


    Moreover, they were familiar with the medicinal properties, so they were able to suppress the side effects of all kinds of pills to the minimum.


    Pill-refining fighting style! This was a fighting style that belonged exclusively to Pill Masters.


    It was unknown what kind of pills Pill Master Yuan had just eaten, but his battle prowess temporarily recovered to its peak.


    ¡°Heavenly Fire! Come!¡±


    A ball of heavenly fire descended from the sky and transformed into a fire dragon.


    The scorching flames caused Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body to perspire.


    Suffocation!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng could smell the scent of death. He had no room to dodge because the fire dragon¡¯s attack range was too large. Under such circumstances, he could only choose to take it head-on.


    Zhou Feng used all his strength to activate the Purple Jade Bell to separate the flames.


    ¡®What should I do!¡¯ Zhou Feng began to think about what to do frantically.


    Facing such a predicament, he could not think of anything. He did not seem to have any trump cards, or rather, he did not have any ability to turn defeat into victory.


    All along, he had been relatively average in all aspects. The pronoun of average also meant that he was very mediocre.


    None of his passive skills were particularly outstanding.


    It seemed that he had to get a trump card after escaping this calamity. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have the ability to turn the tables at all.


    ¡°Are you still hiding in this turtle shell? It¡¯s useless! The fire dragon refines spirit herbs!¡± Pill Master Yuan roared and formed a core seal with both hands.


    The fire dragon in the sky directly circled around and formed a pill refining cauldron, trapping Zhou Feng in the center.


    This fire dragon was made up of the Earth Core Fire, and it was also something that Pill Master Yuan had spent decades of painstaking effort to contain in his body.


    Although this Earth Core Fire was the lowest grade of spirit fire, it was at least a spirit fire.


    If Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the protection of the Purple Jade Bell, he would probably have been burned to ashes in an instant.


    ¡®Looks like I can only use money to open a path!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s skin was a little charred black at this time, and sweat couldn¡¯t stop flowing down.


    He was still lacking when facing a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    Moreover, Pill Master Yuan wasn¡¯t an ordinary Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator but a very wealthy Pill Master.


    He didn¡¯t know how many trump cards he had.


    Crossing so many realms to fight a Pill Master was still a bit too difficult for the current Zhou Feng.


    Fortunately, he wasn¡¯t without vitality.


    That was because there were a large number of talismans and disposable soul artifacts in his storage ring.


    At this point, he had no choice but to thank Han Ming once again.


    ¡°Essence-Breaking Needle! Diamond talisman¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care about the value of these items. In any case, he threw them all out.


    If one could use words to describe his current fighting style, then the words ¡®burning money¡¯ were the most suitable to describe it.


    All sorts of talismans were tossed around randomly, disposable soul artifacts were directly activated, and all sorts of medicinal pills were directly swallowed.


    Zhou Feng would use whatever he had. There was no need to be stingy with anything.


    The cauldron that was condensed from the fire dragon was blown to smithereens.


    Rays of various colors crazily flashed in the air.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    Pill Master Yuan was flabbergasted. He had forcefully used a binding technique to restrict all sounds and rays of light within this small area.


    Fortunately, he reacted in time. Otherwise, he might have alerted the others.


    The binding technique was an ancient technique.


    According to legends, this binding technique could bind anything. The ancient times¡¯ sages used this binding technique.


    It bound countless dragon veins and earth veins, giving the humans a better living environment.


    Some sages were even more extreme. They restrained their fate and lifespan, thus becoming the chosen one and having an unlimited lifespan.


    However, the restraint method had long been lost by now, leaving only a few bits of inheritance.


    In his early years, Pill Master Yuan had relied on refining pills for others to obtain a small portion of the restraint method¡¯s inheritance.


    ¡°Let¡¯s directly fight a looong battle!¡±


    Zhou Feng was already prepared to engage in a prolonged battle. He believed that the final victor would definitely be him as long as this dragged on.


    In order to unleash his full strength, Pill Master Yuan seemed to have consumed some forbidden pills. This state definitely wouldn¡¯t last for long.


    Moreover, in order to avoid being discovered, he had to pay attention to not making any noise constantly.


    If this dragged on, the final victor would definitely be Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Cough cough!¡±


    Sure enough, Pill Master Yuan suddenly withered and began to cough.


    ¡°It seems that you Pill Master Yuan have murdered quite a number of our Tri-Gu disciples!¡±


    Just as Pill Master Yuan coughed, a gentle voice echoed.


    Accompanying it was the somewhat ethereal Leng Maner.


    ¡°It¡¯s you! Why haven¡¯t you left yet!?¡±


    When Pill Master Yuan saw Leng Maner, a trace of fear instantly appeared on his face. He didn¡¯t even have the intention to fight and planned to escape.


    However, a streak of ice-cold moonlight suddenly shone down from the sky.


    Pill Master Yuan, who was about to escape, was immediately frozen, and even the fire dragon was extinguished.


    This sudden turn of events stunned Zhou Feng.


    ¡®So strong!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at Pill Master Yuan, who had been frozen into a block of ice, and sucked in a breath of cold air in his heart.


    He hadn¡¯t noticed Leng Maner¡¯s attack until the end.


    Moreover, Leng Maner¡¯s aura hadn¡¯t changed since then. It was still as ethereal as ever.


    This meant that she hadn¡¯t used her full strength at all.


    After Leng Maner froze Pill Master Yuan into a block of ice, she slowly turned her head to look at Zhou Feng.


    Under the bright moonlight, Leng Maner looked down on him like a high and mighty empress..

 Chapter 104 - The People from the Sect

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When facing Leng Maner¡¯s gaze from above, Zhou Feng did not lower his head. He chose to look at her normally.


    Leng Maner¡¯s eyes revealed a faint hint of coldness.


    A wave of power surged toward Zhou Feng¡¯s body like a huge wave.


    After a moment of silence, Leng Maner opened her mouth and sent an invitation to Zhou Feng. ¡°Are you interested in joining my Ice Spirit faction?¡±


    ¡®Ice Spirit faction?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not react in time as he did not expect Leng Maner to extend an invitation to him.


    Wasn¡¯t the Ice Spirit faction the Sect Leader¡¯s faction?


    It was said that the Sect Leader¡¯s faction would never rope in disciples from the other two factions.


    This was different from the other two factions, which always roped in their disciples.


    Whether one had a Bloodthirsty Gu or a Penta-Poison Gu, it did not affect whether they would join the Bloodthirsty or the Penta-Poison faction.


    This was what Zhou Feng had found out during that period.


    On the other hand, the Sect Leader¡¯s faction had always insisted on absorbing disciples with Ice Spirit Gu in their bodies, so they had the fewest people.


    ¡°If you can become a Pill Master, we can make an exception and let you enter my Ice Spirit Gu faction!¡± Leng Maner added with a cold expression.


    ¡®Pill Master? So that¡¯s it! It¡¯s because of the identity of a Pill Master!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly understood. As expected, the identity of a Pill Master was very popular.


    ¡°The things inside all belong to you! It can also be considered an investment for you! I will explain to the sect! But you must hand over the pill refinement inheritance to the sect!¡± Leng Maner casually said a few words and then left.


    ¡®Left? Just like that?¡¯ Zhou Feng had never expected that it would end up like this.


    What should he do next?


    Without Pill Master Yuan, was there any meaning to the Medicine Tower? And the things in the Medicine Tower, could he take them as he pleased?


    What happened tonight was really a little baffling.


    They had a fight for no reason, and it ended in a baffling manner.


    Zhou Feng stood rooted to the ground for a while but didn¡¯t overanalyze the situation.


    ¡®Forget it! Forget it! I don¡¯t want to think too much about it!¡¯


    He ran directly to Pill Master Yuan¡¯s side and found that he had long lost his breath.


    At the same time, a bone-deep chill was slowly emitted from him.


    Zhou Feng smashed the ice cubes into pieces and began to collect them.


    However, he didn¡¯t go into the Medicine Tower. He only took the storage ring on Pill Master Yuan¡¯s body and then left in a hurry.


    Since Leng Maner had said she would report it to the sect, someone would come to deal with the aftermath later.


    It was better for him not to stay there.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng returned to his room and slowly heaved a sigh of relief.


    These events had made him anxious, and he realized that his strength was still a little lacking.


    Moreover, the death of Pill Master Yuan should be a major event for the sect. After all, there were only three Pill Masters in the entire sect.


    Now that there was one less, it was likely that Zhou Feng would be the scapegoat even though he wasn¡¯t the one who killed him.


    From the very beginning, Zhou Feng had always felt that there was a thorn in his back.


    A sense of crisis swept through his entire body, making his mind extremely anxious.


    He had to become stronger immediately! Otherwise, he might end up as a skeleton in the end.


    He would first take a look at the skill panel before deciding on anything.


    Zhou Feng followed this habit and took a glance at the skill panel.


    ¡®Endurance +1!¡¯


    This was the passive activation of the Whetstone!


    The battle with Pill Master Yuan just now could be considered as a qualified battle, so his endurance had increased a little.


    Then there was the progress bar, which was almost empty. It should be impossible to draw a passive skill in a short period.


    Zhou Feng finished checking the skill panel, so he shifted his attention to the items he had looted from Pill Master Yuan.


    First was a wine gourd, which looked like a soul artifact.


    There was some wine in it, and it seemed to be medicinal wine.


    Then, there was the storage ring.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Why isn¡¯t there anything at all?¡±


    After opening the storage ring, Zhou Feng was bewildered because there was almost nothing in it. There were only two jade slips and medicinal pills.


    ¡®That¡¯s not right! He was a Pill Master. How could he be so poor? He didn¡¯t even have Spirit Stones?


    ¡®That jade slip should be Pill Master Yuan¡¯s pill refinement inheritance. There is also a technique called binding technique?¡¯


    After that, there were only a few unknown medicinal pills left.


    This was completely different from what Zhou Feng had imagined.


    What he didn¡¯t know was that Pill Master Yuan had practically exhausted all his financial resources in order to refine the Longevity Pill.


    He had poured all of his wealth into the Longevity Pill, and at the same time, this Longevity Pill had also affected most of Pill Master Yuan¡¯s energy.


    It had been a long time since Pill Master Yuan had used the cauldron to refine pills, and the Tri-GU higher-ups had long been dissatisfied with him.


    The main reason for Leng Maner¡¯s arrival this time was to investigate what exactly Pill Master Yuan was doing.


    Roping in Zhou Feng was secondary.


    A Pill Master who couldn¡¯t refine pills was useless to the Tri-Gu Sect. Therefore, Leng Maner had been investigating Pill Master Yuan since the morning. In the end, she discovered that Pill Master Yuan seemed to be refining Longevity Pills.


    Moreover, he had indirectly killed countless elite Tri-Gu disciples.


    Such a crime had already seriously violated the sect¡¯s rules.


    As the daughter of the Sect Leader, Leng Maner would naturally go on a killing spree.


    However, Zhou Feng had already confronted Pill Master Yuan before she went on a killing spree.


    In the end, Leng Maner felt that Zhou Feng might become a Pill Master, so she invested in him. In any case, according to her investigation, Pill Master Yuan didn¡¯t have many things on him. He probably only had the most precious pill refinement inheritance on him.


    And the pill refinement inheritance wasn¡¯t something that anyone could comprehend. Only those with astounding perception and talent in pill refinement could comprehend the pill refinement inheritance.


    Leng Maner¡¯s intention of asking Zhou Feng to hand over the pill refinement inheritance to the sect was actually to ask Zhou Feng to comprehend Pill Master Yuan¡¯s pill refinement inheritance completely.


    After that, he would carefully write down what he comprehended and then hand it over to the sect.


    Moreover, as a Soul Altar cultivator, Zhou Feng also had the talent to refine pills.


    It was fine if the sect didn¡¯t know before, but now that they knew, they definitely wouldn¡¯t let Zhou Feng off like before.


    Especially now that the sect and the Voodoo Cult were engaged in an intense battle and urgently needed to replenish their talents.


    It was believed that it wouldn¡¯t be long before the sect sent people to bring Zhou Feng to the valley to be groomed.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know about this at all.


    He was a ¡®free-range¡¯ disciple, so the sect¡¯s influence had always been very small to him. Sometimes, Zhou Feng was more like a person who wandered outside of the sect.


    The sky gradually brightened up¡­


    The sect sent a few people to the Medicine Tower early in the morning.


    ¡°What? Pill Master Yuan is dead? How is that possible?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! Then what should we do?¡±


    ¡°Yeah! What should we do? In order to get in here, I¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A huge commotion woke up Zhou Feng..

 Chapter 105 - Blessed Land

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Now that Pill Master Yuan was gone, the Medicine Tower had no meaning of existing. Therefore, everyone in the Medicine Tower had to leave this place within a limited time.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng¡¯s information entered the eyes of the higher-ups of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Breaking through to the Soul Altar realm in less than half a year was not uncommon.


    Many freaks in the sect broke through even faster.


    However, this kind of breakthrough speed often meant all sorts of side effects and serious consequences.


    This kind of resume usually did not catch the attention of the various Elders.


    The only thing that made these Elders¡¯ eyes shine was probably their extremely high talent in pill refinement.


    It was not particularly difficult for the Tri-Gu Sect to nurture Soul Altar combatants.


    But nurturing an orthodox Pill Master? The Tri-Gu Sect had yet to nurture one.


    The reason was naturally that they did not have a Pill Master¡¯s inheritance, and the Pill Master¡¯s inheritance was not something that ordinary cultivators could understand.


    In the past, the ancestors of the Tri-Gu Sect had snatched many Pill Masters¡¯ inheritances.


    However, in the end, they discovered that these Pill Masters¡¯ inheritances could only be inherited by those who had the talent to refine pills.


    Moreover, Pill Masters had to be very patient, and if necessary, they had to give up some progress in their cultivation.


    They had to put most of their energy into refining pills.


    However, the competition within the Tri-Gu Sect was extremely cruel.


    Wasting their energy on refining pills? This was basically impossible!


    Thus, when all sorts of factors were added together, the Tri-Gu Sect needed Pill Masters very much.


    The other two Pill Masters were rewarded by the sect with some inheritances so that they could serve the sect. Unfortunately, the affiliated Pill Masters had studied almost all the inheritances, so they wanted to leave now.


    For various reasons, the sect planned to nurture Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng looked at the two people in front of him and muttered in his heart, ¡®A valley? What is this place?¡¯


    The two people in front of him didn¡¯t seem to be alive, their bodies emanating a rotten aura of death.


    ¡°You¡¯ll know when we get there!¡±


    ¡°The sect will only give you a month¡¯s time. You must refine a Grade-1 pill within a month!¡±


    These people didn¡¯t seem to want to explain too much.


    They only asked Zhou Feng to follow them.


    Sure enough, the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s style of doing things was still as simple and crude as before.


    They gave Zhou Feng a month¡¯s time. The sect would supply any materials and resources within this one month.


    If he could refine a Grade-1 medicinal pill within this one month¡­ Then everything would be fine.


    No matter what crimes Zhou Feng had committed before, he would be forgiven.


    But if he failed, then the sect would settle everything.


    At that time, Zhou Feng¡¯s life wouldn¡¯t be in danger, but there was a high chance that he would become a coolie and slowly repay the resources the sect had invested in him.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not want to fall out with the sect right now. After all, he was still too weak. Thus, he could only agree to it first.


    After saying this, the two of them brought Zhou Feng away from the Medicine Tower.


    As for the remaining people in the Medicine Tower, the sect also had a place to arrange them.


    At the valley¡­


    This was a place where the Tri-Gu Sect nurtured elite disciples. It was also a nickname.


    In any case, it was just a valley, surrounded by a large formation, and there was a spirit vein underground.


    To a certain extent, this was a blessed land, although there was a gap between it and a true blessed land.


    But for cultivators, just living in the valley had great benefits.


    Why did Zhou Feng often not see the sect¡¯s upper echelon and elite disciples?


    Zhou Feng even thought that there was no one in charge of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Why was it that all the disciples were in charge of themselves?


    In fact, the most elite members of the Tri-Gu Sect had always been cultivating in the valley.


    Other than the eccentric Old Demon Gu who stayed in Bitter Bamboo Peak, the other Elders who didn¡¯t have any missions would usually stay in the valley.


    And the geniuses and monsters of the Tri-Gu Sect were also in the valley.


    It could be said that this blessed land was the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s core as well as the confidence that the Tri-Gu Sect had to fight against the three sects.


    If the situation wasn¡¯t right, the outer sect, inner sect, and even the main peak could be abandoned.


    As long as the blessed land was there, it would be fine.


    ¡°We¡¯re here!¡±


    Zhou Feng was brought to a teleportation formation on the main peak.


    ¡°This is a teleportation formation¡ª¡± A suction force pulled Zhou Feng before he could finish speaking.


    Then, the world spun.


    When Zhou Feng opened his eyes again, the scene in front of him stunned him.


    Unlike Moun Gu, this place was full of vitality. The surrounding vegetation was extremely lush, but it was very orderly.


    Just by standing there for a while, Zhou Feng could feel a large amount of Spiritual Qi drilling into his body.


    ¡®There was such a place in the sect?¡¯


    ¡°Oh? Is this the sect¡¯s future Pill Master? He looks pretty good!¡±


    A woman¡¯s lazy voice sounded.


    Then, Zhou Feng saw a mature and beautiful woman slowly walking toward him.


    She was wearing a jade green smock with flowers, grass, and a pleated skirt. A green ribbon was tied around her waist, revealing her graceful figure.


    Just by standing there, she displayed all kinds of charm.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng felt a familiar aura.


    ¡®Love Gu?¡¯ He instantly recognized that this was the special smell of Love Gu.


    Luo Ziyan sized up Zhou Feng without any hesitation.


    ¡°His strength is a little weak! His body is in a mess, and this little face is not very handsome, but why is it so attractive?¡± Luo Ziyan voiced her doubts.


    If this person in front of her didn¡¯t have the talent of a Pill Master and Leng Maner¡¯s recommendation, it would be impossible for him to enter the blessed land under normal circumstances.


    However, the strange thing was that when she first saw Zhou Feng, she actually felt that he was exceptionally attractive.


    Could it be a special bloodline blessing?


    ¡®Attractive?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard this, he recalled the passive skill he had obtained previously.


    It seemed to be called the Amorous Prodigal Heart, which slightly increased his charm.


    This little bit of charm wouldn¡¯t affect him so much, right?


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart not only didn¡¯t bring any benefits, but it would probably cause a lot of trouble as well.


    ¡°Are you the one who killed the Han brothers? So, the Purple Jade Bell is in your hands?¡±


    Before Zhou Feng could say anything, another voice entered his ears.


    He saw a handsome man sizing him up.


    This man had sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, and an imposing bearing. He even held a fan in his hand, giving off the feeling of a handsome young master.


    ¡®Purple Jade Bell? Does this person know that the Purple Jade Bell is a half-spiritual artifact?¡¯


    Zhou Feng maintained his calm throughout the entire process and did not speak.


    ¡°Interesting! Although you have the talent of a Pill Master, you still have to abide by the rules of the blessed land! I hope you can live past three days. Those crazy pursuers of Leng Maner will not let you off!¡±


    Seeing that he did not speak, Huang Yang felt like he was a block of wood throughout the entire process. He found Zhou Feng very interesting, so he reminded him..

 Chapter 106 - Leaving the Sect

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Not long after, Zhou Feng was brought to a courtyard.


    ¡°There¡¯s already a cauldron placed inside. There¡¯s also a communication disk. If you need anything, just inform us directly through the communication disk!¡±


    The two people who brought him here left hurriedly after giving a few instructions.


    ¡®The Spiritual Qi is even denser!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that the Spiritual Qi here had become denser.


    The speed of cultivation here was several times faster than cultivating outside.


    ¡®There was actually such a place? This should be the legendary blessed land!¡¯


    Zhou Feng quickly got used to it.


    He entered the residence, which was divided into several rooms. One of the rooms had a huge cauldron and a formation at the bottom.


    Then there was a communication disk and a booklet.


    The communication disk was used to inform the servants in the blessed land.


    There were many servants in the blessed land, and the elite disciples or Elders here did not need to worry about other things. They only needed to cultivate and strengthen themselves constantly. The rest of the trivial matters would be settled for you.


    ¡®So it¡¯s like this!¡¯


    The information on it was all in the booklet in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    In addition, there were many facilities in the blessed land.


    The Life-Death Arena was specially used to increase actual combat experience.


    The Life-Death Arena had many enemies the sect had captured or demonic beasts. One could fight with these people or demonic beasts in order to increase their actual combat experience.


    Then, there was the Soul Altar Cave, which was specially used for closed-door cultivation. Each cave entrance was connected to a spirit vein, which could effectively increase the probability of a breakthrough.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    Looking at the dense introductions about the blessed land below, Zhou Feng finally understood the foundation of a sect.


    In such an environment, the elite disciples cultivating here were much stronger than the inner disciples.


    However, it was precisely because the benefits here were too good that this led to a rule in the blessed land. Every other month, all the elite disciples would have a battle.


    The last ten would not be able to stay in the blessed land.


    Of course, some people with special skills were not included.


    For example, Pill Masters did not need to fight. They only needed to refine enough pills to pass the test.


    This was similar to the elimination system at the end.


    As a result, the elite disciples in the blessed land had no choice but to cultivate with all their strength. They did not dare to slack off.


    ¡®No wonder I was only given a month¡¯s time!¡¯


    Zhou Feng calmed down and began to think about what he should do next.


    Although he had entered the blessed land in the valley in a daze, he had actually come to such a good place. Naturally, he couldn¡¯t miss this excellent opportunity.


    First of all, the pill refinement method definitely needed to be practiced.


    However, whether or not he could become a Grade-1 pill, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any confidence at all.


    Relying only on a few pill refinement inheritances and no one to teach him, could he really become a genius by himself?


    He was doubtful about this. If it were really that easy to become a Pill Master, then the sect wouldn¡¯t be lacking Pill Masters now.


    ¡®This Life-Death Arena seems to be very suitable for me!¡¯


    Zhou Feng wondered if he could quickly raise his cultivation in the blessed land.


    To be honest, he was already beginning to get a little tired of staying in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    After experiencing that period of relaxed freedom in the Medicine Tower, he disliked being restricted even more.


    Why did he have to stay in the Tri-Gu Sect?


    Even if the Tri-Gu Sect had a follow-up cultivation method, Zhou Feng did not rely on any cultivation method at all.


    Zhou Feng was able to reach this step¡ªadvancing from the outer sect to the inner sect and finally entering the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s blessed land¡ªby relying on passive skills.


    Moreover, passive skills could be obtained endlessly.


    Why didn¡¯t he become a vagabond cultivator if that was the case? As long as he found a place to hide and live, he would be able to obtain more and more passive skills.


    He could rob resources, martial techniques, and soul artifacts!


    There should be many demonic sects like the Tri-Gu Sect. Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to bear any burden in robbing these sects.


    Not only would he be free and unfettered, but he also didn¡¯t need to be constantly threatened.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng carried a ticking time bomb¡ªthe Demon-Devouring Seal. Although the Demon-Devouring Seal didn¡¯t seem to have made any movements, it was still a threat. His life had always been in the hands of others.


    This made him very unhappy.


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more he felt that he was doing the right thing.


    The main thing was that he didn¡¯t have any background, nor did he have any connections. He simply couldn¡¯t get any benefits from the sect. On the contrary, he would always be exploited.


    He could even predict that if he really became a Pill Master, then the sect¡¯s higher-ups would not let him stop. They would try their best to squeeze Zhou Feng to refine pills.


    This was because compared to affiliated Pill Masters, Zhou Feng, who had no connections and no background, was easier to control.


    Moreover, he was nurtured by the Tri-Gu Sect. Even his life was in the hands of the sect.


    Based on the information summarized above, Zhou Feng felt that it was time for him to leave the Tri-Gu Sect.


    The current him already had a certain degree of self-protection ability. He was not as weak as before.


    ¡®It¡¯s time!¡¯


    Once the thought of leaving the sect surfaced, Zhou Feng could no longer suppress it.


    ¡­


    ¡°I heard that the higher-ups made an exception to allow a person to enter the blessed land?¡±


    ¡°Right! It seems like it¡¯s because he has the talent to refine pills! There¡¯s a very high chance he will become a Pill Master!¡±


    ¡°And he even has Leng Maner as a guarantor!¡±


    ¡°HMPH! This person won¡¯t live for more than three days!¡±


    Some people were already talking about Zhou Feng¡¯s existence in the blessed land.


    Some of Leng Maner¡¯s admirers were already sharpening their knives, preparing to cause trouble for Zhou Feng.


    The reason was very simple. Leng Maner had guaranteed for Zhou Feng in order to enter the blessed land.


    This made many people who viewed Leng Maner as their exclusive property uncomfortable.


    The Sect Leader¡¯s injuries were getting more and more serious, and the Ice Spirit faction¡¯s forces had also become very weak.


    The battle between the Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction was getting more and more intense.


    It was even on the surface. The fuse for all of this was that the Tri-Gu Sect was losing against the Voodoo Cult.


    If this continued, they might be attacked directly.


    In this crisis, the Tri-Gu higher-ups realized that they had to select a new Sect Leader quickly.


    Then, they would gather the strength of the entire sect to fight back.


    Because of this, the Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction had already forced Leng Maner to express her stance.


    Now, a man appeared out of nowhere and had an unclear relationship with Leng Maner.


    This naturally attracted some attention.


    Although everyone knew that Zhou Feng was just a piece of trash with a Grade-8 Soul Altar, it was impossible for him to become the Sect Leader¡¯s son-in-law.


    But if they could teach Zhou Feng a good lesson and remind Leng Maner of her predicament, that wouldn¡¯t be a problem.


    Therefore, when Zhou Feng entered the blessed land, he was targeted by many people..

 Chapter 107 - Terrifying Growth Rate

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Is this the person? Why is he here again? Isn¡¯t he a Pill Master?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! But this person can really endure it!¡±


    ¡°I heard that this person has completely given up on pill refinement?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but there are people who can¡¯t endure it anymore! They¡¯re ready to find trouble with him!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people immediately began to whisper when they noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s arrival in the Life-Death Arena.


    This was because Zhou Feng had come here countless times.


    Normally speaking, Zhou Feng shouldn¡¯t have come to the Life-Death Arena as he should be studying the art of refining pills. Why did he come here again?


    As mentioned earlier, the Life-Death Arena was a place specially used to increase actual combat experience.


    The Tri-Gu Sect didn¡¯t want to nurture cultivators who only knew how to cultivate. Actual combat ability was also very important.


    Thus, the Life-Death Arena came into being. The sect would capture some vagabond cultivators and powerful demonic beasts and imprison them in the Life-Death Arena.


    Then, anyone in the blessed land could apply for training.


    Ever since Zhou Feng had entered the blessed land, he had spent most of his time in the Life-Death Arena.


    ¡°Begin!¡±


    With an order, a cultivator wearing a steel bracelet appeared in front of Zhou Feng.


    Although this opponent was wearing a steel bracelet, he was a Grade-5 Soul Altar cultivator. It was said that before the Tri-Gu Sect captured him, he was still the Sect Leader of a sect.


    Unfortunately, not only was he now a prisoner, but he had also become Zhou Feng¡¯s grindstone.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    Qin Xiang¡¯s dispirited appearance changed, and he suddenly exploded with power.


    ¡®I finally have a chance! As long as I can hold this person in front of me hostage, I will at least have a bargaining chip.


    ¡®The disciples in this blessed land should all be elite disciples nurtured by the Tri-Gu Sect. Even if I can¡¯t escape in the end, killing one or two of them will be considered payback.¡¯


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Facing the crazed Prime Minister Qin, Zhou Feng appeared eerily calm, and the Demonic Qi in his entire body churned.


    Compared to before he entered the blessed land, his current strength had increased exponentially.


    First, with the help of sufficient resources, all of Zhou Feng¡¯s Spiritual Qi had been converted into Demonic Qi.


    This meant that he had already achieved a small success in the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    Then, there were all kinds of passive kills, which allowed Zhou Feng¡¯s power to skyrocket.


    The Life-Death Arena was simply a place specially prepared for him. He could freely grind his three passive stacking skills: Master Hunter, Soul Harvesting, and Whetstone.


    The various demonic beasts in the Life-Death Arena allowed Master Hunter to stack hunting marks to an exaggerated level. Every type of demonic beast was a different species, after all.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need to search for them personally. He could simply find them there. He now had 40 hunting marks, meaning Zhou Feng had 40 points of perception.


    40 points of perception! What kind of concept was this? Even Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know.


    He only knew that his perception could even sense the spirit vein below the ground.


    That surging and turbulent Spiritual Qi was constantly traveling beneath the ground.


    And during this period, Zhou Feng was able to sense everyone that was spying on him.


    This included several Elders/ He was also able to sense the aura that had already surpassed the Soul Altar realm.


    A passive skill like Master Hunter was truly too formidable once it was stacked.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng discovered that Master Hunter¡¯s upper limit was not as low as he had imagined.


    This was because there were so many species in this world. Every different demonic beast meant that there was a different species.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s conservative estimate was that he could stack hundreds of hunting marks.


    Other than Master Hunter, the passive Soul Harvesting had also been triggered many times.


    The continuous harvesting of souls had allowed the power of his divine soul to increase continuously.


    In less than a few days, Zhou Feng could feel that his Soul Altar was already saturated and was once again ready to transform.


    That¡¯s right!


    He was about to forge his Grade-7 Soul Altar!


    It had only been a few days since his last breakthrough.


    Such a speed of advancement made Zhou Feng experience a familiar feeling once again.


    Such a speed of advancement was his previous cultivation speed.


    Moreover, in the sect¡¯s blessed land, these few growth-type passive skills finally had room to display their strength.


    The newly obtained Whetstone had also been triggered 30 times, besides the two passive skills above.


    Whetstone was the most easily triggered passive skill compared to the two passive skills above.


    He only needed to experience a battle of the same level.


    Since entering the blessed land, Zhou Feng had fought more than 30 battles in total.


    Therefore, his endurance had increased by more than 30 points.


    Moreover, he also discovered the benefits of the increase in endurance.


    This endurance was not just a literal endurance¡ªit included the speed of stamina recovery, the speed of Spiritual Qi recovery, the speed of Blood Qi recovery, and so on.


    In the simplest words, it directly increased his battle endurance ability.


    Originally, he could only fight for an hour. Now, he could fight for at least ten hours, which was a tenfold increase.


    The terrifying battle endurance coupled with Old Skin¡¯s defense points enabled Zhou Feng to engage in a battle of attrition with the enemy, slowly depleting the enemy¡¯s energy.


    As the passive skills continued to increase, the combination of the passive skills from before and the newly acquired passive skills increased Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess by several folds.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Like a huge wave, the surging Demonic Qi slammed against Qin Xiang¡¯s body.


    Armor-Piercing Spear took effect.


    ¡°Can¡¯t block it?¡±


    A look of disbelief appeared on Qin Xiang¡¯s face. His protective layer of Spiritual Qi was unable to block this attack completely.


    ¡®That¡¯s impossible! Why is this attack so strange? My protective layer of Spiritual Qi has clearly not been shattered!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was already numb because every opponent before him had basically the same expression.


    As his cultivation increased, the passive Armor-Piercing Spear¡¯s power also showed itself. It directly ignored all defenses and attacked the physical body. It was too powerful!


    The most terrifying thing was that after Zhou Feng¡¯s Spiritual Qi had transformed into Demonic Qi, which had all sorts of negative effects.


    Once this Demonic Qi entered the opponent¡¯s body, it would continuously devour the opponent¡¯s Spiritual Qi.


    The Demonic Qi coupled with the passive Armor-Piercing Spear was a god-killing combination.


    Qin Xiang already felt that Zhou Feng¡¯s Demonic Qi was constantly assimilating the Spiritual Qi in his body.


    As time went on, if he didn¡¯t get rid of the Demonic Qi in his body, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t even need to take action personally. Prime Minister Qin would be finished.


    ¡°Damn it! Why can¡¯t I hit him!?¡±


    Under the terrifying desire to survive, Prime Minister Qin began to attack crazily.


    But what made him despair was that Zhou Feng seemed to see through all of his intentions. He would dodge by a hair¡¯s breadth every time.


    Could you imagine the despair that you felt every time your attacks missed by a hair¡¯s breadth?


    Coupled with Zhou Feng¡¯s wooden expression, Prime Minister Qin almost collapsed.


    ¡®Just where did this monster come from!?¡¯


    He was a Grade-5 Soul Altar cultivator! His Soul Altar had already transformed several times! Why was he at a complete disadvantage in battle!?

 Chapter 108 - Bug! Not Worthy of Being Targeted by Me!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Is this a Tri-Gu prodigy?¡¯


    Qin Xiang fell into eternal darkness with that question in mind.


    Too hopeless! The battle just now was too hopeless for him.


    No matter how he attacked, he could not hit Zhou Feng. The opponent seemed always to anticipate his next move.


    Then, when he faced Zhou Feng¡¯s attack, he could not block it.


    Through some unknown method, a wave of Demonic Qi invaded his body and then began to spread.


    In the end, Prime Minister Qin did not even touch a hair on Zhou Feng¡¯s head before the battle ended.


    Although there was such a huge gap, this battle didn¡¯t resemble in any way one between a Grade-5 and a Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator.


    On the contrary, it was like a Soul Altar cultivator fighting against a Qi Condensation cultivator.


    Although Prime Minister Qin¡¯s battle prowess had decreased a lot because he did not have any soul artifacts and could not use any other means, the problem was that Zhou Feng did not use any soul artifacts either. He only used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art throughout the entire battle.


    The more Zhou Feng used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art, the more he felt that this Demon-Devouring Battle Art was very mysterious.


    Especially after all the Spiritual Qi in his body had been converted into Demonic Qi, this Demon-Devouring Battle Art could be said to be smooth when used.


    It could freely change attack patterns and could simulate all kinds of natural disasters.


    There were no fixed moves at all. Every move was at his will.


    ¡°A qualified battle has been completed! Endurance +1!¡±


    ¡°Soul collection successful!¡±


    After winning this battle, two messages popped up on the skill panel.


    The Whetstone and the passive Soul Harvesting had been triggered!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s endurance had increased by a little again, and then the upper limit of his soul power had also increased by a little.


    ¡®I can break through!¡¯


    Feeling that his Soul Altar could transform at any time, Zhou Feng felt that he could forge his Grade-7 Soul Altar when he returned.


    Also! The progress bar on the skill panel was full again!


    He could draw out a passive skill again.


    Zhou Feng felt that the short hibernation period had led to his current explosive power.


    It was true that the more passive skills there were, the more obvious the impact on his strength would be.


    Just like now, even though his aptitude wasn¡¯t good and he didn¡¯t cultivate any secret dao techniques, he was still nonchalant when he advanced to the Soul Altar realm.


    His Soul Altar was only a mere Grade-8 one, but his strength far surpassed that of an ordinary person.


    He was even comparable to some geniuses, and challenging those of a higher grade was like eating and drinking water.


    Speaking of which, it seemed like he had been challenging those of a higher level all this time.


    ¡°So strong! This person¡­¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s been challenging those of a higher level all this time, yet he hasn¡¯t lost a single match? Moreover, he hasn¡¯t even used any soul artifacts!¡±


    ¡°Something¡¯s not right! This person¡¯s Spiritual Qi is clearly so heterogeneous, while his Soul Altar is only a Grade-8 one! Why is his battle prowess so extraordinary?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t understand it either. This kind of battle prowess is a little strange.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The onlookers who had been secretly observing from the side exclaimed in surprise when they saw Zhou Feng easily finish off Qin Xiang.


    At first, when they had seen Zhou Feng, their first reaction was to question how this kind of person could enter the blessed land.


    Could he be an Elder¡¯s son?


    But on second thought, it was impossible!


    If this were an Elder¡¯s son, he would have been strangled to death long ago.


    His Spiritual Qi was heterogeneous, while his soul power was scattered. Such people were rarely seen in the blessed land.


    This was because those who could enter the blessed land were basically geniuses who had been soaking in medicinal baths since they were young.


    Such people couldn¡¯t experience something like heterogeneous Spiritual Qi.


    At the same time, the soul power was scattered, which was even more strange. Only low-class Grade-8 Soul Altar exuded such scattered soul power.


    In order to enter this blessed land, one¡¯s Soul Altar had to be at least a high-class Grade-7 one!


    One had to know that apart from the Soul Altar¡¯s grade, which could nurture more soul artifacts, there was also a very important factor.


    That was, the higher the grade, the purer the soul power.


    The purer the soul power, the greater its impact later on.


    A simple example would be two people in the Soul Altar realm. One Soul Altar was only Grade-8, while the other was a Grade-2.


    The person with the Grade-8 Soul Altar realm would never be able to win against that person with the Grade-2 Soul Altar for the rest of their life.


    That¡¯s right! For the rest of their life!


    The gap between each grade of the Soul Altar realm was simply too great.


    However, under this kind of unfavorable situation, Zhou Feng overturned these people¡¯s worldview.


    After coming to the Life-Death Arena, he didn¡¯t lose a single match.


    Moreover, what made people feel that something was wrong was that Zhou Feng was getting stronger and stronger. His improvement speed was a little abnormal.


    In the first few matches, Zhou Feng would still be slightly injured, but even an expert like Prime Minister Qin would not be able to touch Zhou Feng in the later matches.


    ¡°Hey! Are you Zhou Feng?¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to return, a person blocked his path.


    Zhou Feng looked up and saw a man looking down at him with disdain.


    ¡®He¡¯s finally here to pick a fight, eh?¡¯ Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows when he saw this.


    The person who had been itching to pick a fight with him had finally arrived.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how long he had been waiting for this. He didn¡¯t expect that he would have to wait for so long for someone to pick a fight with him deliberately.


    Gong Qu frowned when he noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction. This was not what he had expected. Why did Zhou Feng look a little excited?


    Although Gong Qu felt that something was wrong, he still followed the script and directly questioned Zhou Feng, ¡°Let me ask you! Are you pestering Eldest Senior Sister?¡±


    Everyone knew the answer to this question. Zhou Feng could not pester Eldest Senior Sister Leng Maner at all.


    Given Leng Maner¡¯s strength, other than the top few prodigies, no one dared to have any thoughts.


    Gong Qu had asked this question to gain the upper hand.


    In fact, Gong Qu didn¡¯t come to find trouble with Zhou Feng this time to deal with him specifically.


    This was just the person behind Gong Qu swearing sovereignty, causing the other admirers of Leng Maner to cower.


    Zhou Feng? Who the hell was this?


    Was a mere Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator worth it for the person behind Gong Qu to specifically target him?


    Others would laugh to death if they heard this.


    If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng entering the blessed land and having some relationship with Leng Maner, he wouldn¡¯t be even worthy of being called the chicken that was killed to warn the monkeys.


    ¡°Eldest Senior Sister? Are you talking about Leng Maner?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was calm as he uttered the words ¡®Leng Maner¡¯ without a care.


    ¡°You! You piece of trash dared to address Eldest Senior Sister by her name!?¡±


    Gong Qu never expected Zhou Feng to dare to address Leng Maner by her name.


    One had to know that Leng Maner had countless admirers due to her status and strength.


    Everyone else in the sect would address Leng Maner as Eldest Senior Sister. No one dared to address her by her name.


    Once they did that, it would immediately attract the attention of many people.


    ¡°Do you really think that you could enter the blessed land with your own strength?


    ¡°To be honest, a bug like you wouldn¡¯t even be worthy of being targeted by me if it weren¡¯t for Eldest Senior Sister, you, you know?¡±


    Gong Qu didn¡¯t hide the contempt in his heart.


    This was clearly to target Zhou Feng.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt several gazes on him..

 Chapter 109 - The Silent Ruthless Character

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng shut his mouth and didn¡¯t speak upon hearing Gong Qu¡¯s words. He just quietly looked at Gong Qu.


    Spewing nonsense was never his cup of tea.


    As long as he didn¡¯t speak, it meant that he was ready to make a move at any time.


    Fighting was allowed in the blessed land, and one could even directly kill without being held accountable.


    However, no one would choose to kill under normal circumstances.


    Firstly, those who could enter the blessed land were either powerful or had connections.


    Killing someone would bring them trouble without any special circumstances.


    Secondly, once Gong Qu killed Zhou Feng, it would be easy for others to reject him.


    However, this was only an unspoken rule.


    ¡°Are you mute? Don¡¯t tell me you still dare to make a move?¡±


    Gong Qu stared at the silent Zhou Feng, still looking arrogant.


    This wasn¡¯t to say that Gong Qu didn¡¯t have a brain or that Gong Qu was always this arrogant.


    This was because targeting Zhou Feng was the intention of the person behind him. All of this was just to kill a chicken to warn the monkeys.


    At present, the competition for the Sect Leader position was very intense, and some people were already unable to keep appearances. They didn¡¯t care about Leng Maner¡¯s attitude and would take a stand first.


    In order to intimidate the other competitors, Zhou Feng became the chicken that would die to warn the monkeys.


    Gong Qu¡¯s arrogance was only for the others to see.


    As for what Zhou Feng thought, it didn¡¯t matter from the beginning to the end.


    A mere Grade-8 Soul Apprentice Pill Master couldn¡¯t possibly turn the sky upside down, right?


    ¡°Interesting! I wonder how this person will handle this matter.¡±


    ¡°It looks like he¡¯s preparing to make a move!¡±


    ¡°This just so happens to be someone establishing his authority! But do you think Gong Qu will succeed?¡±


    ¡°This person seems to have some secrets. Otherwise, Eldest Senior Sister wouldn¡¯t have dragged him into the blessed land!¡±


    ¡°I wonder what Eldest Senior Sister will do when she finds out about this matter.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many of the onlookers returned to their senses.


    Gong Qu¡¯s performance was different from usual. Obviously, all of this was done for them to see.


    Zhou Feng, a Grade-8 Soul Altar small figure, was completely a supporting role in this big show.


    Facing the clamoring Gong Qu, Zhou Feng frowned slightly and remained silent.


    Seeing him like this, Gong Qu was certain that he didn¡¯t dare to attack him. A disdainful smile appeared on his face.


    ¡°If you dared to attack me now, I would still respect you as a man! Unfortunately¡­¡±


    Gong Qu¡¯s clumsy performance caused Zhou Feng¡¯s tightly furrowed brows to relax slowly.


    Seeing Zhou Feng like this, Gong Qu felt that he still didn¡¯t dare to attack him. He smiled again and prepared to see the expressions on the others¡¯ faces.


    After all, putting aside the person behind Gong Qu, just the comparison of Gong Qu and Zhou Feng¡¯s strength on the surface alone made many people think that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t make a move.


    Gong Qu was a Grade-5 Soul Altar cultivator, his soul power pure and enormous. He did not lack top-grade soul artifacts, Gus, and dao arts.


    Just as Gong Qu turned his head and looked elsewhere¡­


    ¡®An opportunity!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed with a bright light.


    Demon-Devouring Battle Art!


    Surging Demonic Qi condensed into a long spear, and the tip of the spear pierced through the air.


    Relying on his extraordinary perception, Zhou Feng seized this opportunity and stabbed at Gong Qu from a tricky angle.


    And this was the moment when Gong Qu¡¯s attention was relaxed.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had not made a move because he was waiting for an opportunity.


    Although Gong Qu had acted so arrogantly just now, his entire body was in a tense state. His attention had also been on Zhou Feng, ready to counterattack at any time.


    It was only at that moment when he thought that Zhou Feng did not dare to make a move that his mind relaxed a little.


    As such, Zhou Feng seized this opportunity and launched a sneak attack.


    ¡°You! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Gong Qu revealed a twisted expression as he had been under the impression that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t dare to make a move.


    The long spear condensed from Demonic Qi stabbed into his chest.


    Fortunately, he had a top-grade armor and magic weapon on him, which blocked the attack.


    However, a trace of Demonic Qi still penetrated Gong Qu¡¯s body through the Armor-Piercing Spear¡¯s passive effect.


    ¡°Peerless strength!¡±


    To Gong Qu, Zhou Feng making a move was akin to that looking down on him and the person behind him.


    Earlier, he had assumed that Zhou Feng did not dare to make a move, but now, he did so without saying a word.


    Wasn¡¯t this a huge slap to his face?


    Thus, Gong Qu activated the Peerless Gu in his body, not intending to leave any leeway.


    Gong Qu cultivated the Peerless Gu, and cultivators who used the Peerless Gu as their Vital Gu would put almost all their energy into their physical bodies.


    Violent Blood Qi erupted from Gong Qu¡¯s body like a turbulent wave as he roared.


    A suffocating and terrifying aura spread out in all directions.


    Along with the eruption of power, Gong Qu appeared in front of Zhou Feng in a flash.


    ¡°As expected, the Peerless Gu¡¯s power is still as exaggerated as before!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Just by relying on the power of flesh and blood of the body, it is enough to crush most cultivators!¡±


    ¡°But what I didn¡¯t expect was that this person called Zhou Feng actually dared to make a move!¡±


    ¡°And he didn¡¯t even say a word. He is a ruthless character!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Gong Qu suddenly unleashed a punch, and Zhou Feng only lightly jumped back to dodge it.


    Furthermore, he dodged it by a hair¡¯s breadth.


    Thanks to the superior senses given by Master Hunter, coupled with Battle Instinct, Zhou Feng was able to predict Gong Qu¡¯s attack easily.


    The moment he dodged, the spear in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand stabbed again.


    Naturally, Gong Qu ignored this stab because such an attack wouldn¡¯t even be able to break his skin.


    Gong Qu¡¯s armor was called Peerless Armor, a top-grade soul artifact.


    Normally, it would not appear on his body.


    Once it entered battle, it would reveal itself. Its defense was unparalleled.


    Not to mention Gong Qu¡¯s body was powerful because of the Peerless Gu. He could even shatter a soul weapon with his bare hands when he used all his strength.


    Unfortunately for him, Zhou Feng¡¯s Armor-Piercing Spear allowed him to pierce through these layers of defense easily.


    A trace of Demonic Qi once again entered Gong Qu¡¯s body.


    ¡®Impossible! What kind of attack is that?¡¯


    Gong Qu¡¯s expression changed slightly, and he began to feel that something was wrong.


    How could Zhou Feng¡¯s attack ignore his defense?


    Previously, he had thought it was an illusion, but this time, he was certain that Zhou Feng¡¯s attack actually ignored his defense.


    The tingling pain was very obvious.


    Zhou Feng did not care about what the other party thought. He just kept his head down and attacked fiercely.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Gong Qu went berserk. The Blood Qi on his fist started to burn, and he started to wave it wildly.


    However, he was not powerful just because he shouted loudly.


    Gong Qu looked terrifying, and anyone could sense his explosive raw power.


    Still, one¡¯s strength would be useless if they couldn¡¯t hit their opponent~

 Chapter 110 - Introduction to the Demon-Devouring Seal

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s strength slowly grew stronger, his cultivation grew higher and higher while his passive Battle Instincts became even more powerful.


    Zhou Feng dodged all of Gong Qu¡¯s seemingly terrifying attacks due to Battle Instinct.


    And every time, he was just a hair away from touching him.


    ¡°This, this, this¡­¡±


    ¡°It can¡¯t be! Gong Qu seems to have been played?¡±


    ¡°Am I seeing things!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The onlookers originally thought that Gong Qu¡¯s sudden outburst could instantly knock Zhou Feng down.


    That was because Gong Qu¡¯s strength was overwhelming.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t possibly be Gong Qu¡¯s match, yet the reality made everyone¡¯s jaws drop.


    Gong Qu was like a monkey before Zhou Feng. He kept scratching randomly but couldn¡¯t even touch the corner of Zhou Feng¡¯s clothes.


    Moreover, everyone could see that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t use any footwork technique.


    The way he dodged was completely based on his body¡¯s instinct, and it seemed effortless.


    Gong Qu seemed to have heard the crowd¡¯s comments of others, and his face started to turn red as if a blazing fire was burning in his heart.


    But the more this happened, the more Gong Qu calmed himself down.


    ¡°Very good! It looks like you¡¯re not that useless! Next¡ª¡±


    Gong Qu, who had temporarily stopped attacking, did not forget to threaten Zhou Feng.


    In his heart, he had only made a mistake just now. If he wanted to, crushing Zhou Feng would not be a problem at all.


    The silent Zhou Feng once again launched a fierce attack before Gong Qu could continue.


    Gong Qu had just stopped attacking when Zhou Feng¡¯s spear pierced straight through.


    Gong Qu hadn¡¯t even finished his sentence!


    In fact, Zhou Feng had always thought that speaking during a battle was an utterly stupid thing to do.


    Wasn¡¯t talking nonsense during a life and death battle distracting?


    ¡°Enough! Mountain-Moving Rings! Come out!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude and silence seemed to have angered Gong Qu.


    ¡®Does he really think he can finish me off!?¡¯


    Gong Qu had actually held back before, and he also thought it was because of this that Zhou Feng had just gained the upper hand.


    However, the expressionless Zhou Feng, coupled with the strange gazes from the surroundings, made Gong Qu unable to bear it.


    He had clearly always been in a good mood, but when he saw Zhou Feng¡¯s calm appearance, he felt that he was being mocked.


    Hence, Gong Qu directly summoned two rings from his Soul Altar.


    Mountain-Moving Rings! They looked like two round bracelets with relief sculptures of mountains on them.


    An earthy yellow light directly enveloped the surroundings.


    These Mountain-Moving Rings were Gong Qu¡¯s lifebound soul artifact, and the two were part of a set.


    Once their power was displayed, they could even move a small mountain, which was why they were called Mountain-Moving Rings.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately summoned the Purple Jade Bell, and a small jade purple bell slowly floated above his head.


    A faint purple light enveloped his entire body.


    The heavy feeling from before instantly disappeared.


    ¡°Landslide!¡±


    Gong Qu used all his strength to activate the Mountain-Moving Rings.


    Instantly, the arena beneath his feet began to crack.


    The invisible gravity was enough to crush Zhou Feng into meat paste.


    But under the protection of the Purple Jade Bell, Zhou Feng was not affected at all.


    One had to know that the Purple Jade Bell had already begun to transform into a spiritual artifact, and the Mountain-Moving Rings were only a soul artifact.


    Gong Qu was simply dreaming if he wanted to rely on the Mountain-Moving Rings to suppress him.


    The battle was not over!


    The onlookers observed the intense battle between Zhou Feng and Gong Qu, and their faces were almost full of surprise.


    They had never expected that Gong Qu couldn¡¯t even take down a Grade-8 Soul Altar piece of trash.


    At first, they thought that given Gong Qu¡¯s strength, it would be a snap of the fingers to defeat Zhou Feng.


    But now, the two sides were actually somewhat evenly matched, and Zhou Feng seemed to have the upper hand.


    One had to know that one was a Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator, and the other was a Grade-5 Soul Altar cultivator.


    Zhou Feng could be considered to be fighting above his level!


    ¡°You actually used poison!?¡±


    All of a sudden, Gong Qu felt his blood boil and instantly realized that he had been poisoned.


    That¡¯s right! The Carefree Powder reappeared!


    Zhou Feng had quietly scattered Carefree Powder, but Gong Qu discovered it just as it took effect.


    Gong Qu then used his powerful Blood Qi to expel the Carefree Powder out of his body forcefully.


    The Peerless Gu specialized in cultivating the body, so such a simple aphrodisiac would not affect Gong Qu at all.


    Zhou Feng had already expected this. After all, the Carefree Powder was a minor skill. It was normal for it to have no effect.


    Although the Carefree Powder didn¡¯t have much effect, it had at least angered Gong Qu once again.


    ¡°The power to move mountains!¡±


    Gong Qu thought about how there were so many people watching behind him, and he didn¡¯t want to drag this out any longer.


    If this continued, even if he won in the end, it would be quite embarrassing. Therefore, Gong Qu burned his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi to use his strongest move.


    The embryonic form of a mountain slowly appeared. Two Mountain-Moving Rings were placed on Gong Qu¡¯s two hands.


    Gong Qu¡¯s entire aura instantly changed. It was thick and heavy.


    Gong Qu threw another punch. This punch was slower than any previous one, but behind it was a mountain that directly smashed toward Zhou Feng.


    The illusory image of the mountain continued to grow. The pressure around Zhou Feng increased by a notch as it got closer.


    Zhou Feng immediately felt as if he had fallen into a deep swamp, and all his movements were restricted.


    At this point, Zhou Feng also used all his strength to activate the Purple Jade Bell.


    The leisurely chime of the bell seemed to come from the nine heavens.


    With just a single sound, the shadow of the mountain collapsed.


    If it was just a competition of power, the Purple Jade Bell, as a half-spiritual artifact, was much more powerful than the Mountain-Moving Rings.


    ¡°Impossible!¡±


    Seeing that his strongest attack had been shattered, Gong Qu couldn¡¯t believe it at all.


    How could he lose?


    Just as Gong Qu was still wondering how this had happened, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Seal!¡±


    The Demonic Qi around Zhou Feng¡¯s body surged wildly, and his black hair flew in the air.


    The Demonic Qi on his body resonated with the Demonic Qi in Gong Qu¡¯s body and formed a mysterious demonic seal.


    Then, Gong Qu was enveloped by the dense Demonic Qi, forming a demonic cocoon.


    ¡°This is the Grand Elder¡¯s famous ultimate skill? Impossible! How can someone successfully cultivate it?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s over! Gong Qu is going to die!¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    The onlookers¡¯ pupils shrank when they saw this move. It was too representative, after all.


    Wasn¡¯t this the Grand Elder¡¯s famous consummate skill, the Demon-Devouring Seal? How could anyone possibly learn this move?


    That¡¯s right! This was the Demon-Devouring Seal of the Demon-Devouring Technique!


    This move was too difficult to cultivate, so Zhou Feng had wanted to give up on cultivating it. However, he was somewhat unwilling. After all, this should be the most profound dao art he had come into contact with.


    Originally, given his talent, he would never be able to learn it in his lifetime.


    However, he had obtained another passive skill a day ago. It was this passive skill that had allowed him to enter the rudiments of the Demon-Devouring Seal directly.


    It just so happened that Zhou Feng used Gong Qu to try his hand and see just how tyrannical this Demon-Devouring Seal was..

 Chapter 111 - Target: Grade-1 Soul Altar!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Dao Seed: Every time you learn a martial technique, dao arts, divine ability, and so on, you have a certain chance of comprehending it directly!


    Cooldown: 1 year


    This passive skill was probably the only one among Zhou Feng¡¯s many passive skills that strengthened his comprehension ability.


    He had a chance to comprehend any dao techniques and arts with this passive skill.


    One must know that many dao techniques and arts not only required talent but also relied heavily on luck.


    Once fate arrived, you might naturally learn it.


    Especially the more profound the technique, the more profound it would be. Given Zhou Feng¡¯s talent, he might not be able to learn it in his lifetime.


    But with the passive Dao Seed, he didn¡¯t need to worry that his talent would drag him down.


    Although the cooldown time of this passive skill was a bit long, this 1-year cooldown time was nothing compared to its powerful effect.


    Zhou Feng relied on the passive Dao Seed to comprehend the Demon-Devouring Technique forcefully.


    ¡®I can give it a try and see how powerful this Demon-Devouring Technique is!¡¯


    He circulated his Demonic Qi and started to refine Gong Qu in the demonic cocoon.


    ¡°What¡­ What should I do?¡±


    ¡°He has learned the Demon-Devouring Technique. Maybe he is the Grand Elder¡¯s direct disciple!¡±


    ¡°As expected, the one who caught the eye of the great Eldest Senior Sister is definitely not an ordinary person!¡±


    ¡°Is there another competitor?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s actions, the people around did not stop him.


    This was because Gong Qu had clearly been defeated in this battle. Zhou Feng had defeated Gong Qu head-on.


    According to tradition, Gong Qu¡¯s life or death could not be controlled.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng had also learned the Grand Elder¡¯s signature Demon-Devouring Technique. He might even be the Grand Elder¡¯s true disciple.


    Zhou Feng was now qualified to fight for the position of Sect Leader with the Grand Elder as a backer.


    ¡°AH!¡±


    As a large amount of Demonic Qi was being consumed, Gong Qu kept screaming from within the demonic cocoon.


    That mournful wail made everyone¡¯s hair stand on end.


    But as time passed, Gong Qu¡¯s voice became quieter and quieter.


    In the end, he was directly consumed into a ball of Demonic Qi.


    Only a few soul artifacts and storage rings were left.


    And that ball of surging Demonic Qi was contained in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡®I have to leave this place quickly!¡¯


    Zhou Feng realized that this wasn¡¯t the place to use the Demon-Devouring Technique and immediately turned into an afterimage as he flew away.


    Demon-Devouring Technique!


    This was the ultimate skill of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s Grand Elder, Old Demon Gu, and was also the key to Old Demon Gu¡¯s position as the Grand Elder.


    Its domineering aspect was that it could devour the enemy¡¯s cultivation, constitution, Spiritual Qi, and so on, directly converting and making them a part of the practitioner.


    Bottleneck? In front of the Demon-Devouring Technique, such a thing didn¡¯t exist at all.


    Back then, Old Demon Gu had broken through to the Soul Altar realm in an extremely short period, directly reaching the Purple Mansion realm in one step.


    He had even stimulated his own bloodline and opened up his own innate divine ability.


    Old Demon Gu had gone from an ordinary disciple to the Grand Elder in just a few years.


    All of this was due to the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    However, not many people coveted such a heaven-defying technique.


    The reason was very simple¡ªthe side effects were too severe!


    Ever since Old Demon Gu had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, his cultivation had been stagnant.


    He hadn¡¯t been able to advance for many years. What followed the Purple Mansion realm was known as the Divine Ability realm, and it required a pure soul to reach it.


    Old Demon Gu had used the Demon-Devouring Technique to devour too many people, so not only was he crazy, but his soul had also been contaminated.


    Countless thoughts were constantly lingering on his soul.


    Moreover, his mind was splitting at all times. The Thousand-Faced Demon was Old Demon Gu¡¯s nickname, which also explained his actual predicament.


    At present, Zhou Feng was also facing such a problem.


    After returning to his room, he vaguely felt a person¡¯s voice ringing in his ears.


    That mass of Demonic Qi started to fuse with Zhou Feng.


    His Demonic Qi, Blood Qi, and soul power all increased at the same time, and he broke through the bottleneck of the Grade-7 Soul Altar!


    And this was just the beginning!


    Traces of Demonic Qi started to fuse into Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar, and it was about to undergo another transformation.


    ¡°I am Gong Qu? No! I Am Zhou Feng!¡±


    Zhou Feng shook his head and tried to wake himself up, but he always felt that someone was talking in his ear.


    A wave of anxiety emerged from the bottom of his heart.


    These were all side effects brought about by the Demon-Devouring Technique. If it were someone who was not mentally strong enough¡­ they would definitely lose themselves under such circumstances.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng had only swallowed one person. It was hard to imagine how Old Demon Gu had managed to survive such a consequence.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s mind was still rather firm, and the murmurs slowly disappeared from his ears.


    ¡°I made it!¡±


    Zhou Feng was now like a dead fish, slumped on the ground.


    It was too terrifying! He had almost lost himself just now.


    This Demon-Devouring Technique was actually so dangerous that he had almost lost himself the first time he used it.


    However, the risk may be great, but the benefits were also quite high.


    Zhou Feng realized that he was already a peak Grade-7 Soul Altar cultivator, only one step away from Grade-6.


    At the same time, the surge of his soul power also accelerated the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s transformation speed.


    All the Spiritual Qi in his body was transformed into surging Demonic Qi.


    ¡°And this is from devouring one person! If¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng felt the change in his cultivation, and his mood became somewhat difficult to calm down.


    The increase in his cultivation was simply too fast. Given this speed, wouldn¡¯t it be easy for him to forge a Grade-1 Soul Altar as long as he devoured a few more people?


    Perhaps, he would be able to break through to the Purple Mansion realm directly.


    Such a terrifying benefit was enough to cause anyone¡¯s adrenaline to surge.


    The more one cultivated, the more difficult it felt to cultivate.


    The feeling of only increasing one¡¯s cultivation in the next few years was too unbearable.


    No one would be able to resist the temptation of rapidly increasing one¡¯s cultivation with such a method.


    Zhou Feng was no different.


    This evil technique was too powerful! It was even faster than the passive Soul Harvesting!


    The passive Soul Harvesting required slowly reaping souls to increase his soul power, but the Demon-Devouring Technique could do this in one step.


    One could even condense the Demon-Devouring Seal and attach it to another person¡¯s body. When the time was right, they could use the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    Zhou Feng did not forget that he also had the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body.


    He was both a hunter and prey.


    ¡®What should I do!?¡¯


    At this moment, a choice was placed in front of Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Should I go crazy? Or should I tread carefully?¡¯


    To be honest, relying on his terrifying perception and the many resources in the blessed land, even though the chances were slim, Zhou Feng could still become a Pill Master if he worked hard.


    Zhou Feng only pondered over this question for a second before making his decision.


    That was to¡­ go crazy!


    That¡¯s right! From the start, everyone knew Zhou Feng¡¯s character. He liked to take the initiative to attack and risk his life.


    He did not like to take things step by step and slowly settle down, even with the existence of the Golden Finger.


    The restlessness in his bones kept him taking risks.


    His target! A Grade-1 Soul Altar!


    In an instant, Zhou Feng set his target¡ªthe cultivation of a Grade-1 Soul Altar..

 Chapter 112 - Preparing to Refine Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng had chosen the craziest method, directly relying on the Demon-Devouring Technique to raise his cultivation to the Grade-1 of Soul Altar realm.


    Then he tried to get rid of the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body. This was not something that he could ignore.


    He remembered that the Demon-Devouring Technique had many methods to eliminate certain side effects.


    This was what he had seen on the stone tablet earlier.


    The Ice Heart Gu could suppress schizophrenia and prevent Soul Altars from being contaminated.


    At that time, Zhou Feng had also recorded down the refinement materials needed to refine the Ice Heart Gu.


    ¡°It seems that the main material is the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus! There is also the Pure Blood Gu as the basic Gu¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned as he recalled the materials needed to refine the Ice Heart Gu. The most important should be the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus and the Pure Blood Gu.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have all the other materials. He could find the rest in the storage ring that the Han brothers had given him.


    That was to say, as long as he found the two primary materials, he could start refining the Ice Heart Gu.


    He could eliminate the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effects with the Ice Heart Gu.


    However, this Ice Heart Gu was not always effective. It only worked the first time.


    If he continued to refine it later, the effect would be reduced by more than half, and the third time he refined it, there would be no effect.


    ¡°Although I have decided to use the Demon-Devouring Technique to increase my cultivation quickly, I cannot stop harvesting souls!¡±


    Zhou Feng began to plan his future cultivation path.


    He needed to increase his cultivation as quickly as possible.


    After using the Demon-Devouring Technique, Zhou Feng was afraid that Old Demon Gu would use the Demon-Devouring Technique on him.


    A huge sense of danger burdened his mind. In order to survive, he didn¡¯t think about the consequences of using the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    If he developed schizophrenia, then so be it. If he couldn¡¯t break through in the following realms, then he couldn¡¯t break through.


    It was better to live than die!


    Moreover, the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effects might be unsolvable for Old Demon Gu. It might even be unsolvable for the rest of his life. He could only stay in the Purple Mansion realm forever.


    However, if it were Zhou Feng, it would be different.


    This was because it was likely that he would gain a passive skill that could resolve these side effects in the future.


    Because Zhou Feng had this backing, his choices were more radical.


    Although he was a little reckless, he was not stupid.


    ¡°Oh right! I wonder if the progress bar has changed?¡±


    Thinking of the passive skills, Zhou Feng itched to take a look at the skill panel.


    Previously, he had just obtained the passive Dao Seed. Now, the progress bar should have been reset.


    He opened his skill panel and saw that his progress bar had increased by half!


    Using the Demon-Devouring Technique could increase his progress bar?


    If that were the case, then he would have no choice but to use the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    Putting everything else aside, just the ability to obtain passive skills was enough for Zhou Feng to ignore all side effects.


    All sorts of passive skills were actually what he had confidence in.


    ¡°Very good! The Ice Heart Gu is now the primary target!¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly changed his plan¡ªthe Ice Heart Gu had now become the primary target.


    The Ice Heart Gu could allow him to use the Demon-Devouring Technique a few more times, meaning that he could obtain a few more passive skills. Thus, he set the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus and Pure Blood Gu as his primary target.


    The Hundred-Year Ice Lotus was a rare spiritual medicine, and it was not easy to find it.


    The Pure Blood Gu could be directly refined, however.


    The so-called Pure Blood Gu was only the last type of Blood Gu.


    Zhou Feng knew how to refine the Blood Gu.


    First, one needed to create a blood pool and then put in numerous Blood Gus. After that, they would add different types of blood in batches, of which the owner¡¯s own blood was the key.


    At the same time, during this Gu-raising period, the owner of the Gus had to constantly use the power of their divine soul to stimulate the Gus in the blood pool to kill each other.


    This was a very tiring job, and there was a high possibility that it would end in failure.


    Under the blessing of the blood pool, the Gus that entered the blood pool would be unusually fierce, and if they were not careful, they would be directly injured or killed.


    ¡°As for the blood pool¡­ I remember that there are several Gu-nurturing pools in the backyard! I can just modify one!¡±


    Zhou Feng remembered that there were a few Gu-nurturing pools at the back of the courtyard.


    There were all sorts of facilities in this blessed land.


    Now that there was a pool, the next step was to modify it into a blood pool.


    The modification of the blood pool was extremely simple. It required setting up a simple formation and adding all sorts of blood.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know the details of this procedure.


    ¡°I think the storage ring has an introduction about the blood pool¡­¡±


    At this time, Zhou Feng recalled that the storage ring on his hand had a book about raising Gu, and the method of setting up the blood pool was written in it.


    After all, this storage ring contained the accumulated wealth of the Han Clan.


    For example, Gu-raising methods were definitely recorded.


    Now, all of this had been handed to Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng rummaged through the storage ring to find the materials needed for the blood pool.


    ¡°This¡­ This is really a huge gift bag!¡±


    Seeing that all the materials were there, Zhou Feng could not help but sigh.


    Now it seemed that this huge gift bag was really timely, saving him a lot of trouble. It could even allow him to start his first Gu refinement.


    Speaking of which, he had been in Tri-Gu Sect for so long, and only now did he have the time to try Gu refinement.


    Gu refinement was clearly the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s specialty, yet he, a Tri-Gu disciple, had not tried Gu refinement.


    ¡­


    While Zhou Feng was practicing Gu refinement, the blessed land was stirred up because of him.


    Just like when Zhou Feng had entered the Medicine Tower.


    A Grade-8 Soul Altar newbie had killed Gong Qu without using any tricks.


    This piece of news was not enough to shake all the geniuses and monsters in the blessed land.


    But when the news that Zhou Feng practiced the Demon-Devouring Technique was added, it was enough to shake these geniuses.


    Demon-Devouring Technique! This was the Grand Elder¡¯s ultimate skill!


    Who knew how many people had wanted to learn it in the past? In the end, they either gave up or became a part of the Great Elder.


    Now, there was actually someone who could learn it?


    Moreover, as long as one learned the Demon-Devouring Technique, regardless of what cultivation level they had now, they would definitely reach the Grade-1 of Soul Altar in a short period.


    Many people could already see a monster¡¯s slow rise.


    If this kind of plot followed the normal script, Zhou Feng would definitely start to be suppressed.


    Indeed, many people were already scheming for Zhou Feng¡¯s life. Now was the most intense time for the Sect Leader competition.


    Leng Maner had brought Zhou Feng, so there might be many more variables.


    But other than that, some people planned to rope in Zhou Feng.


    Given his talent, he might become another Old Demon Gu in the future as long as he got rid of the Grand Elder¡¯s control.


    They could invest in this! They could even be pulled into the same battleship!


    The Tri-Gu Sect did not lack crazy people who would risk everything.


    As for Zhou Feng¡¯s future growth, would it threaten some people¡¯s statuses?


    This was not a problem to worry about. If Zhou Feng really had the confidence to suppress the entire sect, so what if they made him the Sect Leader?


    The cruelest method was needed to nurture the most elite disciples!


    The Tri-Gu Sect followed this principle from top to bottom..

 Chapter 113 - Why?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°I still need some materials!¡±


    Zhou Feng kept adding all kinds of things to the blood pool.


    After a period of busy work, he completed the first step of the blood pool construction.


    Now, he just needed to wait for the fresh blood to be injected and then react.


    The effect of this blood pool was largely related to the injected blood.


    If only mortal blood were added, then the quality of the blood pool would be very low.


    The quality of the Pure Blood Gu that could be refined in the end would not be good either.


    ¡°Someone is coming?¡±


    Zhou Feng was planning to go out and get some blood when he suddenly sensed that someone had come to his door. Moreover, relying on his powerful perception, the person at his door seemed to have bad intentions.


    As his perception increased, his ability to detect the good and bad of people also became more and more powerful.


    Sometimes, he didn¡¯t even need to look up close. He could sense from a distance that someone was trying to harm him.


    Leng Yan walked to the door and calmed himself down. He tried to look as friendly as possible while thinking, ¡®I think this person will not refuse because of Miss¡¯ reputation!¡¯


    This person was the first person to come to Zhou Feng¡¯s door after learning that Zhou Feng had learned the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    From this surname, it could be seen that this person was from the Sect Leader¡¯s faction.


    This time, he came to ask for Zhou Feng¡¯s help.


    After obtaining Zhou Feng¡¯s permission, Leng Yan carefully walked in. He was still very cautious because those who practiced the Demon-Devouring Technique were basically lunatics.


    If he were not careful, he might even lose his life.


    Although Leng Yan looked down on a nouveau riche like Zhou Feng, he still had to put on a good show.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Leng Yan coldly and felt even more uncomfortable in his heart.


    Although Leng Yan looked like he was full of smiles, giving people the feeling of a spring breeze, Zhou Feng could feel the malice in Leng Yan¡¯s heart with his perception.


    ¡°It¡¯s like this! Our Miss sent me to congratulate you!¡±


    It had to be said that Leng Yan had done a good job on the surface.


    He did not look obsequious or cold. At the same time, he pulled a tiger¡¯s skin when he opened his mouth.


    He brought up Leng Maner because most people in this blessed land would give her some face.


    But in reality, Leng Maner had not sent Leng Yan.


    Zhou Feng began to frown, his eyes fixed on Leng Yan. He did not want to listen to this nonsense.


    As for Leng Maner¡¯s tiger skin?


    Zhou Feng did not really like it because Leng Maner had definitely not sent the person in front of him.


    Even though he had only met her once, he was still quite familiar with Leng Maner¡¯s character. She would never send someone to congratulate him.


    Sensing that something was wrong, Leng Yan reacted quickly.


    ¡°Actually, Miss didn¡¯t send me! I¡¯m only here because a mystic realm is about to open! This mystic realm has the Ice Lotus that you need the most!¡± Leng Yan directly told him his purpose for coming here.


    At the same time, he did not dare to continue pulling the tiger skin of Leng Maner.


    ¡®Mystic realm?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard these two words, his brows were still tightly furrowed.


    He knew very little about mystic realms. He had only read about them in some books.


    It was said that some cultivators could open up Grotto-Heavens at a certain realm after the Divine Ability realm.


    And when these cultivators died, there was a chance that these Grotto-Heavens would continue to exist.


    After countless years of evolution, they became the so-called mystic realms.


    These mystic realms weren¡¯t open to the public all year round, so one could find all kinds of spirit herbs and even the inheritances of mighty senior figures.


    Therefore, many cultivators liked to enter mystic realms to take a gamble. After all, most people believed that they were the chosen one, and there was a possibility that they could suddenly obtain the inheritance of a mighty figure.


    Or perhaps they had obtained a 10,000-year-old spirit herb.


    ¡®As expected! A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin! They don¡¯t know the specific situation of the mystic realm at all!¡¯


    Seeing the change in his expression, Leng Yan couldn¡¯t help but despise Zhou Feng in his heart.


    In Leng Yan¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was a living nouveau riche.


    If it weren¡¯t for his good luck and the fact that he had suddenly learned the Demon-Devouring Technique, it would be impossible for Zhou Feng to know the information of this mystic realm.


    Apart from resources and temperament, background was also very important along the path of cultivation.


    For someone like Zhou Feng, who was still a mortal before and had broken through to the Soul Altar realm by chance, his future potential was basically zero.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng had also cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    Although the Demon-Devouring Technique looked powerful, it was a technique that had no future. Just the side effects alone were enough to drag anyone to death.


    Even Old Demon Gu, who was extremely talented, was still tied up in the Purple Mansion realm.


    To be honest, if Old Demon Gu had not used the Demon-Devouring Technique, he might have already reached the Divine Ability realm.


    However, for someone like Zhou Feng, who had no future, his current strength was very good.


    He was very suitable to be a fighter. Therefore, Leng Yan came looking for him.


    Of course, it was true that there was an Ice Lotus in the secret realm.


    But compared to the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus, there was something more important in the mystic realm.


    Moreover, there were many people who knew about that item.


    ¡®Ice Lotus? Hundred-Year Ice Lotus?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression changed slightly when he heard that there was an Ice Lotus in the mystic realm.


    ¡®How does this person know that I need the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus? So, do many people know about the Demon-Devouring Technique?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had only revealed the Demon-Devouring Technique for a short period, yet someone already knew that he needed a Hundred-Year Ice Lotus to refine Ice Heart Gu.


    And they all came directly to his door!


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Ten years ago, our faction entered this mystic realm and discovered a pond filled with Ice Lotuses!¡±


    Leng Yan nodded, confirming that there was an Ice Lotus in the mystic realm.


    ¡°Very good!¡± Zhou Feng revealed a smile.


    Seeing him like this, Leng Yan thought that he had agreed to explore the secret realm together, so he couldn¡¯t help but smile.


    However, this smile suddenly turned into fear.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body exploded with rolling Demonic Qi!


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng condensed the Demonic Qi into a big hand, and then the Purple Jade Bell shook slightly.


    Leng Yan was caught off guard.


    ¡°You! Are you crazy!?¡±


    Leng Yan never thought that Zhou Feng would suddenly make a move.


    How could he dare? Wasn¡¯t he afraid of the person behind him?


    In fear, Leng Yan tried to resist. Spiritual Qi burst out of his body, and he used all kinds of life-saving methods.


    Unfortunately, it was too late!


    Previously, Leng Yan had been seriously injured due to his unintentional calculation. Now, he was suppressed by the Purple Jade Bell.


    The Purple Jade Bell, which was already a half-spiritual artifact, gradually showed its terrifying power.


    The faint purple light seemed to weigh a thousand tons. Leng Yan¡¯s resistance did not even cause a ripple.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Accompanied by Leng Yan¡¯s scream, a pile of meat appeared in front of Zhou Feng.


    Until the moment before he lost consciousness, Leng Yan did not feel that he had done anything wrong.


    Or it could be said that there was no flaw. Why did Zhou Feng make a move!?


    Did he not need the Ice Lotus? Impossible!


    The Grand Elder had paid a huge price to obtain the Ice Lotus back then.


    The Ice Heart Gu could only alleviate the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effects.


    Why?


    Leng Yan, who had been full of confidence and looked down on Zhou Feng, fell here..

 Chapter 114 - Another Breakthrough!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Leng Yan died there with his unanswered questions.


    ¡°Now I have the materials for the blood pool!¡±


    After Zhou Feng crushed Leng Yan to death, he continued to build the blood pool.


    As for why he did it, it was because this fellow was too malicious to him.


    Obviously, he was scheming against him.


    Zhou Feng estimated that the information about this mystic realm and the Ice Lotus should be true.


    However, Leng Yan had definitely hidden a lot of information.


    If the treasures in the mystic realm were easy to obtain, then no one would take them out and share them.


    Share the benefits with others? He believed that any normal person would not do so.


    In this way, it meant that although this mystic realm had many opportunities, there were also risks.


    Zhou Feng did not know anything about this mystical realm. If he went in rashly, it would be very easy for him to be ambushed and manipulated.


    Not to mention that Leng Yan had come with malicious intent.


    Based on the considerations above and the fact that Leng Yan could be used as a material for the blood pool, Zhou Feng directly made his move without the slightest hesitation.


    ¡°Endurance +1!¡±


    ¡°Soul collection successful!¡±


    When Leng Yan died, Zhou Feng¡¯s two passive skills were activated simultaneously.


    The passive Whetstone strengthened his endurance, while Soul Harvesting made his soul power a little stronger.


    ¡°Now, I can become stronger as long as I kill people! Why would I take the risk to enter the mystic realm?¡±


    Feeling that his strength had increased a little, Zhou Feng did not want to enter the mystic realm anymore.


    After all, there were many ways to increase his strength now.


    The benefits from entering the mystic realm were the lowest among them.


    He mainly relied on collecting souls and devouring to increase his cultivation. He did not need any spirit herbs or opportunities at all.


    This was completely different for other people.


    As for the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus, he planned to buy or rob it by force!


    According to the information he got from Leng Yan, there was an Ice Lotus in this mystic realm. At the same time, he was invited to enter the mystic realm together.


    This meant that many people knew about this mystic realm.


    Some people would definitely collect the Ice Lotus and bring it out in exchange for cultivation resources.


    At that time, he could take the opportunity to buy it. If it didn¡¯t work, Zhou Feng would go and rob it!


    Didn¡¯t the Tri-Gu Sect always emphasize the survival of the fittest?


    Given his current strength, Zhou Feng felt that as long as he didn¡¯t face an Elder at the Purple Mansion realm, no one else could take him down.


    In any case, he would just kill them!


    Zhou Feng moved Leng Yan¡¯s lump of flesh into the blood pool.


    This was the flesh of a Soul Altar cultivator, enough to cause the blood pool to boil for the first time.


    When this lump of flesh and blood was placed into the blood pool, the entire blood pool instantly boiled.


    The thick smell of blood slowly spread out, and the strange dark red blood pool underwent some sort of transformation.


    Taking this opportunity, Zhou Feng threw a few Blood Gus into the blood pool.


    He would let these Blood Gus adapt to the blood pool environment first before slowly adding more, causing these Blood Gus to kill each other continuously.


    ¡°I can break through again!¡±


    Looking at the boiling blood pool, Zhou Feng felt that he could try to break through again.


    After devouring Gong Qu with the Demon-Devouring Technique, his cultivation had directly jumped to peak Grade-7 of the Soul Altar realm.


    After killing Leng Yan just now, he triggered the passive Soul Harvesting.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng felt that he could break through again. He might as well break through while controlling the blood pool.


    ¡­


    ¡°There¡¯s no movement? His aura is gone too!¡±


    ¡°He should be dead!¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s really bold! I heard that Gong Qu¡¯s backer has rushed back! I wonder how this person will deal with this.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Some of the people who were watching Zhou Feng outside had already noticed the moment Leng Yan died.


    They didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be so bold.


    He even dared to kill Leng Yan, someone from the Sect Leader¡¯s faction.


    He even had Leng Maner behind him.


    Once this matter was known to others, not to mention Leng Maner, just Leng Maner¡¯s suitors alone were enough to make Zhou Feng suffer.


    Zhou Feng was really too bold.


    Also, the person behind Gong Qu had already rushed back to the blessed land.


    If nothing unexpected happened, someone would soon find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    Speaking of which¡­ the person behind Gong Qu was also infuriated.


    Originally, he had just randomly picked a soft persimmon to pinch, wanting to show his to the others and make them give up on pursuing Leng Maner.


    However, he didn¡¯t expect that he would pinch a rock instead, and Gong Qu would die on the spot.


    Not only did he help Zhou Feng¡¯s reputation, but he also made himself lose all face.


    Now, many people were watching this good show.


    And just as these people were passing on the news, Zhou Feng had successfully broken through.


    His Soul Altar underwent another mutation, and his soul power increased again.


    Even the Purple Jade Bell and the medicine gourd in the Soul Altar showed some changes.


    ¡°Grade-6 Soul Altar!¡±


    Zhou Feng let out a light sigh, and then his expression changed slightly.


    Just as he broke through, he heard a soft murmur. Then, some strange scenes appeared in front of his eyes.


    This was the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effect. The power of a xenogeneic soul had polluted his Soul Altar.


    He had only used the Demon-Devouring Technique once. He didn¡¯t expect the side effects to be so serious.


    Zhou Feng tried his best to suppress the power of the xenogeneic soul, and the scene in front of him slowly disappeared.


    ¡°The more it is like this, the more it needs to be rushed!¡±


    Zhou Feng forcefully wiped away the uneasiness in his heart because there was no turning back at this point.


    He summoned the medicine gourd from his Soul Altar, raised his head, and took a sip.


    This medicine gourd was something Zhou Feng had obtained from Pill Master Yuan, and it was also a top-grade soul artifact.


    However, it wasn¡¯t an offensive soul artifact but an auxiliary instead.


    As long as the medicine gourd was filled with all kinds of spirit herbs, the gourd would automatically refine these spirit herbs.


    It would turn into a special medicinal wine.


    This special medicinal wine would have different effects depending on the type of spirit herbs that were added.


    However, Zhou Feng had never deliberately tried to make it. In any case, no matter what entered his mouth, it would be passively digested by Gluttony, turning into Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    Speaking of the medicinal gourd, he also wanted to talk about Pill Master Yuan¡¯s inheritance.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had taken some time to check the inheritance jade slip.


    He had realized that this inheritance jade slip wasn¡¯t simple at all. It was directly divided into many layers.


    Each layer needed the reader to pass some tests to gain access to the contents of the next layer.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t put too much thought into pill refinement, so he quickly put the inheritance jade slip aside.


    As for the sect, they didn¡¯t urge him to hand in the pill refinement inheritance.


    ¡°I just broke through! I should be able to draw a passive skill!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly remembered that every time he broke through, the progress bar on the skill panel would increase by a lot.


    He had just broken through, so he should be able to draw a passive skill!

 Chapter 115 - Trouble

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    As expected, the skill panel¡¯s progress bar was full after the breakthrough.


    Now, Zhou Feng could draw a passive skill again.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    He hoped that he could draw a good passive skill this time.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Tough Skin: Your skin has become tougher. You will receive a fixed reduction of 2 points of damage when you receive damage.


    ¡®Another passive skill with damage reduction!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes lit up when he saw this new passive skill.


    This passive skill seemed to be quite strong, and it did not require any triggering conditions.


    With 2 points of damage reduction and Old Skin¡¯s passive defense, he could be considered to be able to take a beating now.


    ¡®Very good!¡¯


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude was not good, his various passive skills made up for that. His battle prowess was not much different from those geniuses¡¯.


    The new passive skill made Zhou Feng¡¯s mood much better.


    At the same time, the Blood Gus in the blood pool had almost killed each other. The Pure Blood Gu would soon appear in the blood pool.


    Although the quality was not very good, it should be able to be used as a raw material to refine the Ice Heart Gu.


    What should he do next?


    Now that the blood pool was complete, he only needed to pour in materials to produce the Pure Blood Gu continuously.


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that he did not know what to do next.


    He had arranged so many tasks for himself previously, but now he suddenly did not know what to do.


    He had obtained a few new passive skills and was now a Grade-6 Soul Altar cultivator.


    ¡®I broke through too quickly!¡¯


    The terrifying speed of breaking through made him feel a sense of fatigue. After all, Zhou Feng was still a normal person. Such high-intensity cultivation made him feel tired.


    Perhaps he could take a break?


    It was necessary to take a proper break. If he was tense all the time, it would be very easy for something to happen.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng planned to relax for half a day.


    Ever since he had entered the blessed land, he didn¡¯t seem to have wandered around seriously.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could take a good look around the blessed land.


    At the same time, he could ask around for information about the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus. He could also ask around for information about the mystical realm if possible.


    He was quite interested in the mystical realm that Leng Yan had mentioned earlier.


    ¡®I remember that there is a small market in the blessed land. I can just go there and take a look first.¡¯


    Zhou Feng packed his things and headed to the market in the center of the blessed land in a very low-key manner.


    This market was relatively small, but the items on the stalls were all pretty good; even rare items could be found.


    Zhou Feng had only heard of such items, but he had never had the time to look for them.


    Now was a good time to take a look.


    At the blessed land¡¯s market¡­


    ¡®It¡¯s actually so lively?¡¯ Zhou Feng looked at the lively scene in front of him and could not help but feel a little surprised.


    He did not expect this small market to be so lively.


    Many people had already started setting up stalls. There were people selling spirit medicines, manuals, spiritual pets, and so on.


    Moreover, there were actually people selling intel in this market.


    Zhou Feng did not buy anything. He only mingled among the people and eavesdropped on their conversations for information.


    Most of the information was about the Voodoo Cult.


    Soon, he was shocked. If he didn¡¯t listen, he wouldn¡¯t know that the Tri-Gu Sect had already started an all-out war with the Voodoo Cult.


    Many Elders and elite disciples had gone to guard the sect¡¯s various resource points. Perhaps, it wouldn¡¯t be long before the sect would transfer disciples again. Zhou Feng might also have to fight against the Voodoo Cult when that time came.


    Zhou Feng was able to stay safely in the blessed land because he had the talent to refine pills.


    The sect wanted to nurture a Pill Master.


    But now, Zhou Feng had no intention of refining pills. In addition to the strength he had displayed, it was very likely that they would dispatch him.


    ¡°Who do you think will be able to marry the beauty in the end?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s hard to say now. But I think Ye Zai with the Sageking Physique is the most likely contender!¡±


    ¡°Really? I think so too! After all, Ye Zai is the most monstrous genius in our sect!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s for sure! He¡¯s only 15 years old, but he already has a high-class Grade-1 Soul Altar. He walks a broad and limitless path.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng overheard people talking about a person many times while strolling around.


    This person¡¯s name was Ye Zai. Currently, he should be the genius with the most outstanding aptitude in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    He was only 15 years old and already had a high-class Grade-1 Soul Altar. Most importantly, this Ye Zai¡¯s cultivation method was not an extremely obscure one of the demonic path.


    Instead, it was a type of cultivation method that allowed one to break through step by step. Its foundation was extremely solid.


    This was not the case for most people. The most typical example would be Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Technique. Although his progress was astonishingly fast, the side effects were terrifying.


    What shocked Zhou Feng was that he cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique and thought his cultivation speed was terrifying.


    Unexpectedly, he was still lacking by quite a bit compared to this Ye Zai.


    A 15-year-old Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator? This was too terrifying!


    Just by walking around the market, Zhou Feng had already obtained a lot of information.


    ¡°Eh? Have you just entered the blessed land? Why haven¡¯t I seen you before?¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to continue walking around, a woman stopped him. She had silky black hair that fluttered in the wind, curved willow-shaped eyebrows, and a pair of large watery eyes that were like stars and the moon.


    However, her behavior revealed an arrogant temperament.


    Zhou Feng frowned and did not say anything.


    ¡°Why aren¡¯t you saying anything? If you look carefully, you¡¯re just average-looking. Why do I feel that you¡¯re quite attractive?¡±


    Ye Ying stared at Zhou Feng curiously with her big eyes.


    Although the man in front of her was not very good-looking, he was attractive. It seemed that he had a temperament that made people feel close to him.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart sank upon hearing her words. This was probably due to the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart.


    Sure enough, this passive skill was troublesome.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Zhou Feng asked coldly.


    ¡°You¡¯re quite cold! It seems that you really just entered the blessed land not long ago. You don¡¯t even know me!¡±


    Ye Ying did not care about his cold attitude at all. Instead, she sized him up more frequently.


    ¡®Trouble!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt an aura lock on him.


    The person in front of him was indeed a sh*t-stirrer. He clearly did not do anything, but this sh*t-stirrer actually came to him on her own.


    If he remembered correctly, fighting in the blessed land seemed to be allowed!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng even planned to make a move.


    Ye Ying suddenly stepped back and shouted, ¡°Chen Jin, come over and take care of the new disciple!¡±


    Then, a person slowly stood in front of Zhou Feng.


    This person looked to be in his 20s, was dressed in white, and his skin was as smooth as butter. His body seemed to be emitting a faint light as well..

 Chapter 116 - Awkward Situation

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! Sister Ying has always been so willful! Please forgive me.¡±


    Chen Jin walked in front of Zhou Feng with a bitter smile on his face. It seemed that this was not the first time such a thing had happened.


    ¡°Why are you saying so much? That gourd looks pretty good. Help me bring it over!¡±


    Ye Ying¡¯s tone was full of arrogance as she directly targeted the medicine gourd on Zhou Feng¡¯s waist.


    The bitter smile on Chen Jin¡¯s face intensified upon hearing this.


    ¡°Fellow cultivator, I wonder if you can cede this gourd of yours? Don¡¯t worry, I will definitely not let you suffer a loss!¡±


    These two people seemed to be quite famous in this market.


    In an instant, many people in the surroundings began to gather around to watch.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng also understood what was going on. It turned out that the target was the medicine gourd on his waist.


    Although the medicine gourd didn¡¯t look like much, it was still a top-grade soul artifact.


    Moreover, it was even more valuable than ordinary top-grade soul artifacts because it could refine spirit herbs.


    If not for that, Pill Master Yuan wouldn¡¯t have kept it with him all this time.


    Under normal circumstances, such a top-grade soul artifact couldn¡¯t be found at all.


    Zhou Feng glanced at Chen Jin indifferently, then at Ye Ying. ¡°No!¡±


    His tone was extremely decisive, not allowing any leeway for bargaining.


    Ye Ying¡¯s nose wrinkled slightly upon hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s words, and she immediately shouted at Chen Jin in annoyance, ¡°Damn it! Chen Jin! Hurry up and teach this arrogant person a lesson! Let him know what the rules are!¡±


    She looked just like a spoiled and unruly young lady.


    It seemed that she had been spoiled too much.


    From the looks of it, Ye Ying¡¯s background should not be insignificant. After all, it was impossible to act so unreasonably in the blessed land without a strong background.


    When the onlookers saw this scene, they acted as if they were watching a good show.


    Chen Jin once again revealed a bitter smile and didn¡¯t say anything else. He took two steps back and adopted a fighting stance.


    ¡°Hey! Is this Zhou Feng?¡±


    ¡°Zhou Feng? Who is he?¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t know? He¡¯s the one who crushed Gong Qu! I heard that Eldest Senior Sister brought him into the blessed land!¡±


    ¡°Is that so? If It¡¯s true, then this will be a good show to watch!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A few people at the side recognized Zhou Feng.


    The current Zhou Feng still had a trace of fame in the blessed land.


    It was mainly because he had connections with Leng Maner and offended a bigshot. Therefore, many people remembered Zhou Feng¡¯s name.


    ¡®Something seems to be wrong!¡¯


    Looking at Chen Jin, who had entered battle mode, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know why but felt something was wrong in his heart.


    The whole sequence of events was too illogical.


    An unruly young lady had appeared out of nowhere and was about to start a fight.


    ¡®You insist on fighting? Then I will not!¡¯


    Although Zhou Feng could not tell what was wrong, he knew what others did not want to do!


    They were trying to lure them into falling into a trap.


    If he remembered correctly, fighting should not be allowed in the market!


    Although disciples were allowed to fight each other in the blessed land, it seemed limited to certain areas.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not speak, nor did he have the intention to attack. He directly ignored the two people in front of him.


    ¡°You! Chen Jin! Hurry up and attack. How dare you ignore me!?¡±


    As Zhou Feng kept ignoring Ye Ying, the unruly eldest daughter¡¯s temper flared.


    The bitter smile on Chen Jin¡¯s face intensified as well.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t we go to the Life-Death Arena and have a match?¡± Chen Jin once again blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s path and used a persuasive tone to speak to Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng instantly confirmed in his heart that the two people in front of him were colluding together to find trouble with him.


    Moreover, it was the classic case of good cop and bad cop.


    No wonder Ye Ying had said earlier that he had just entered the blessed land. This should be a trap.


    Zhou Feng believed that those who could enter the blessed land should not be so brainless.


    However, these two people should have some background. To be able to make such a commotion in the market, they should not be afraid of others taking revenge later.


    Zhou Feng still acted as usual.


    ¡®I won¡¯t speak. I don¡¯t care what you say. You will only succeed in doing the opposite. The more you want me to do this, the more I won¡¯t do it.¡¯


    Zhou Feng showed no reaction and looked like a dead man.


    Chen Jin seemed unable to hang on any longer.


    ¡°Brother! Why don¡¯t you give me some face? We don¡¯t want this gourd anymore. Let¡¯s just have a simple exchange!¡±


    Although Chen Jin still sounded amicable, his words carried a hint of threat. It was as if he was saying that everyone was cultivating in the blessed land.


    ¡®You¡¯re not giving me face by lowering your head, so why don¡¯t you give me face so that I can get off the stage?¡¯


    Chen Jin was using this subtext.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng watched Chen Jin¡¯s performance quietly. His face remained expressionless, and he didn¡¯t say a single word.


    The atmosphere had fallen into a very awkward state.


    Zhou Feng was now making it clear that if they wanted to make a move, then they should make a move.


    ¡®If you want to make a move, then I¡¯ll counterattack.


    ¡®If you don¡¯t make a move, then you¡¯ll just wait here.¡¯


    Chen Jin had never encountered such a situation before. He was bewildered.


    ¡®This is not right! Why is he not saying anything? How am I supposed to deal with this?¡¯


    No matter what others said, they would always defend themselves when faced with a situation like this.


    Then, Chen Jin would be able to seize the opportunity and use it to lure and provoke them.


    According to the temper of most of the disciples in the sect, they would definitely not be able to hold themselves back in the end.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say anything, nor did he have any expression on his face.


    This time, Chen Jin didn¡¯t even know how to continue acting!


    That¡¯s right! As Zhou Feng had guessed, Chen Jin and Ye Ying were deliberately looking for trouble.


    And Zhou Feng was just one of their targets.


    Their goal was to get the medicine gourd on Zhou Feng¡¯s waist.


    They had already recognized that this gourd was definitely a top-grade soul artifact.


    Such a soul artifact was basically priceless in the outside world. It would definitely be a huge profit if they could exchange it for some Spirit Stones.


    Previously, they had relied on this kind of trick to get their hands on other people¡¯s items.


    In the end, they relied on both hard and soft methods to obtain some good things.


    Moreover, Chen Jin and Ye Ying would not choose people with a Grade-5 Soul Altar and above cultivation.


    They usually chose people below the Grade-5 of Soul Altar realm as their targets.


    Coupled with the fact that they were cautious, they had succeeded time and time again. They already had quite a bit of fame here in the market.


    This caused them only to be able to target disciples who had just entered the blessed land.


    Seeing this, Ye Ying immediately shouted in exasperation, ¡°Do it! Just do it! Chen Jin! Are you deaf!?¡±


    Chen Jin, who was somewhat embarrassed, revealed his trademark bitter smile.


    Then¡­ violent Spiritual Qi gathered on Chen Jin¡¯s crystal clear right hand..

 Chapter 117 - Being Cruel Enough

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Chen Jin suddenly moved, and a violent stream of Spiritual Qi gathered in his right hand.


    This palm attack was extremely sudden, and the surrounding air was swept up into a gust of wind.


    Such an attack was completely deliberate. A normal person might not be able to react in time when facing this attack.


    However, because Zhou Feng had always maintained a high level of vigilance, he reacted at the first moment.


    Zhou Feng also used a palm strike, but it wasn¡¯t that big of a formation. He was completely in a posture of taking it head-on.


    Bang!


    The two big hands directly collided.


    ¡°You!¡±


    The corners of Chen Jin¡¯s mouth twitched slightly, and a trace of disbelief appeared in his eyes.


    He didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction against his sneak attack to be so fast.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body seemed to be a little too strong!?


    That violent force was like a clay ox entering the sea when this palm struck down. It did not cause any ripples at all.


    On the contrary, he felt a powerful rebound force.


    ¡®This defensive skill is not bad!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the changes in his body. In his heart, he was quite satisfied with his current defensive ability.


    Old Skin had passively increased his defensive power, and when combined with Tough Skin, Chen Jin¡¯s attack just now hadn¡¯t been able to shake Zhou Feng in the slightest.


    ¡°Eh? Something doesn¡¯t seem right!¡±


    ¡°Has he encountered a tough opponent?¡±


    ¡°Normally, given Chen Jin¡¯s cultivation, anyone below the Grade-5 of Soul Altar realm shouldn¡¯t be a match for him¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At that moment, Chen Jin¡¯s right hand was firmly grabbed by Zhou Feng.


    Demonic Qi surged out of Zhou Feng¡¯s body. First, there was a muffled sound, and then a crackling sound followed.


    This sound was like stir-fried beans, sounding non-stop.


    ¡°Let go! How is this possible!?¡±


    Chen Jin tried his best to break free from Zhou Feng¡¯s large hand, but he couldn¡¯t do it no matter how hard he tried.


    To Ye Ying¡¯s surprise, Zhou Feng directly tore off Chen Jin¡¯s right hand.


    The snow-white bones and scarlet flesh were completely exposed under everyone¡¯s gazes.


    ¡°You¡­ You! Do you know what you¡¯re doing!?¡±


    Coupled with Zhou Feng¡¯s expressionless face, such a bloody scene scared Ye Ying quite a bit.


    Fighting in this market was actually forbidden.


    But when Chen Jin realized that he couldn¡¯t taunt Zhou Feng, he suddenly attacked him. In fact, he wanted to take down Zhou Feng in a short amount of time.


    This way, he wouldn¡¯t violate the market¡¯s rules.


    If he couldn¡¯t trick Zhou Feng, he would directly attack. This had always been Chen Jin and Ye Ying¡¯s effective trick.


    Who knew how many people had fallen for this trick? In their hearts, they thought that no one in the market would dare to make a move.


    After that, they became careless and were successfully ambushed.


    But what Chen Jin didn¡¯t expect was that Zhou Feng¡¯s vigilance was so high.


    His strength was also so terrifying.


    This sneak attack didn¡¯t succeed, and one of his arms was torn off instead.


    Ye Ying couldn¡¯t sit still now.


    ¡°My brother is Ye Zai! You¡­¡±


    It was still the same trick. Seeing that she was about to suffer a great loss, Ye Ying revealed her backer¡¯s name.


    She used it to threaten Zhou Feng so that he would cower and retreat.


    Ye Zai? He seemed to have just heard of it.


    But so what? Zhou Feng had never cared about these things.


    As long as they dared to have designs on him, then they had to be prepared to pay the price.


    The thick Demonic Qi formed a tentacle and grabbed Ye Ying.


    ¡°This¡­ is really fierce!¡±


    ¡°He wasn¡¯t scared by Ye Zai¡¯s name? This person is really bold!¡±


    ¡°Right! It seems that these two have encountered a ruthless person this time!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t frightened by Ye Zai¡¯s name at all, many onlookers had only admiration on their faces.


    This was because Ye Zai was the number one genius of the blessed land, and his strength was fearsome. Even some of the Elders had to give Ye Zai some face.


    Ye Zai had once fought against a Purple Mansion expert, and he wasn¡¯t at a disadvantage.


    The monstrous Ye Zai caused quite a few people in the blessed land to be unwilling to provoke him.


    Because of Ye Zai¡¯s reputation, Chen Jin and Ye Ying dared to ambush people in the market and live a carefree life.


    Although Ye Ying wasn¡¯t Ye Zai¡¯s biological sister¡ªin reality, she was only a clan sister¡ªhe was still willing to give Ye Ying some face.


    But now, against someone like Zhou Feng, Ye Zai¡¯s reputation was no longer useful.


    Chen Jin and Ye Ying¡¯s nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong was instantly exposed.


    Under such circumstances, they panicked and did not even think of retaliating.


    They clamored the entire time, threatening Zhou Feng to let go.


    ¡°Quickly let go of me! You¡ª¡±


    Ye Ying¡¯s ear-piercing screech suddenly stopped.


    Ye Ying¡¯s head was severed!


    Ye Ying was only a Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator compared to Chen Jing.


    Even Chen Jin, a Grade-4 Soul Altar cultivator, was taken down by Zhou Feng in an instant.


    When Ye Ying faced Zhou Feng, she simply had no ability to resist at all.


    Therefore, Ye Ying instantly lost her life. The severed head still had an incredulous expression on it.


    This expression seemed to be saying, ¡°How dare he! How dare he make a move!?¡±


    Before Ye Ying¡¯s death, she had never been absolutely certain that she would die here, nor did she think that Zhou Feng would dare to make a move against her here.


    At most, she would only suffer a little!


    It was precisely because of this thought that Ye Ying had not panicked at all. Instead, she had maintained an arrogant expression.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not care so much. Ye Ying lost her life with a cutting motion.


    ¡®He¡¯s crazy! He¡¯s really crazy!¡¯


    When Chen Jin saw Ye Ying¡¯s severed head, he instantly shivered.


    In Chen Jin¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was a lunatic.


    Although Ye Ying was only Ye Zai¡¯s clan sister, Ye Zai would definitely pursue the matter if someone severed her head.


    Kacha!


    In the next second, Chen Jin¡¯s head was also ripped off.


    Chen Jin and Ye Ying were instantly killed.


    ¡®They didn¡¯t even have the intention to resist? Were they used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect that Chen Jin and Ye Ying wouldn¡¯t even have the intention to put up a fight.


    After Ye Ying had mentioned Ye Zai¡¯s name, they seemed to have unlimited confidence that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t dare to attack them.


    However, he didn¡¯t care about such random attacks and was extremely decisive.


    The passive Soul Harvesting and Whetstone were activated when the two people died.


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    ¡°Endurance +1!¡±


    Zhou Feng became stronger.


    ¡°Brother! You seem to have gone a little overboard!¡±


    Suddenly, a person dressed in white who was not stained by any dust slowly landed in front of him.


    Chen Feng showed a calm expression while glancing at Chen Jin¡¯s head.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng put on a cold expression and did not say a word.


    Still, his eyes seemed to say, ¡°What does it have to do with you?¡±


    In an eerily calm tone, Chen Feng said, ¡°New disciple, you are indeed frivolous! You don¡¯t know what reverence is! Don¡¯t worry, I will break all the bones in your body and make you wail under the sun for three days and three nights!


    ¡°This way, I can be considered to be worthy of my younger brother!¡±

 Chapter 118 - The Road Ahead Was Cut Off

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    So this Chen Jin was Chen Feng¡¯s younger brother. No wonder he showed such an attitude.


    ¡°What are you doing? What are you doing?¡±


    ¡°No fighting is allowed in the market! What are you trying to do?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    While Chen Feng and Zhou Feng were confronting each other, the market¡¯s management staff finally arrived.


    These people only took a simple glance at the bodies of Chen Jin and Ye Ying and did not say anything.


    They only looked at Zhou Feng with warning eyes.


    They told him not to continue fighting in the market.


    To them, it did not matter who was dead or alive. What was important was to maintain order in the market.


    Fighting and killing in this blessed land was a common thing.


    Thus, in a situation like this where the victim was already dead, the patrolling disciples of the market did not care at all.


    They also did not want to offend others for the sake of a few dead people.


    ¡°If you have the guts, follow me to the Life-Death Arena!¡± said Chen Feng.


    Then his white clothes fluttered, and he disappeared on the spot, heading to the Life-Death Arena at breakneck speed.


    His words implied that Zhou Feng had to go to the Life-Death Arena with him to resolve this matter.


    However, Zhou Feng only disposed of Chen Jin and Ye Ying¡¯s corpses and prepared to return to his residence to continue cultivating.


    As for Chen Feng, he did not care.


    Originally, he had only come to the market to see if he could find any news about the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus.


    Now that he was being disturbed, he did not have the mood to do so.


    And just as Zhou Feng was about to leave, another person blocked his way.


    ¡°Hmm?¡± Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, and he adopted a battle stance, ready to attack at any time.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious!¡±


    Huang Yang slightly revealed his aura. It was as if a great sun had descended, slowly pressing down on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡®Grade-1 Soul Altar? And this aura¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was startled. The person in front of him was actually a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator, and there was a scorching aura spreading in the surroundings.


    ¡°There¡¯s information regarding the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm! When the time comes, Ye Zai will also go!


    ¡°Besides our sect, there will also be people from the Voodoo Cult. At present, all the Elders of the sect have been dispatched!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Huang Yang gave a jade slip to Zhou Feng and explained a little.


    It turned out that Huang Yang had stopped him to invite him to explore the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm together.


    This so-called Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm was the one Leng Yan had mentioned they had found the Ice Lotus.


    This was also an important place that the sect had been fighting over with the Voodoo Cult all this time.


    Currently, almost all Tri-Gu Elders were in the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm to confront the Voodoo experts.


    At the same time, they were suppressing the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm to prevent it from closing early.


    According to tradition, the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm would be explored by disciples below the Purple Mansion realm.


    Huang Yang meant to invite him to explore the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm and deal with Ye Zai together. Since Zhou Feng had already offended Ye Zai, it would be better for them to attack together.


    Compared to Leng Yan, who hadn¡¯t revealed any information, Huang Yang was more sincere.


    He directly handed the information of the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Think about it!¡±


    Huang Yang smiled confidently and then left in a carefree manner. It was as if he was not afraid that Zhou Feng would not cooperate with him.


    The best choice was to cooperate with him.


    ¡®Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng held the jade slip in his hand tightly and rushed back to his residence.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Chen Feng realized that Zhou Feng would not appear at the Life-Death Arena after waiting for a long time.


    ¡°Very good! Very good! Very good!¡±


    Chen Feng¡¯s face immediately turned red from anger, and he said ¡°Very good¡± three times in a row.


    This person was so angry that he was trembling slightly.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng was also lost for words. Why did these people think that he would do as they thought?


    Could it be that these people thought that he would not make a move just because they would bring out some backer?


    And why did he have to go wherever they told him to go?


    Zhou Feng was someone who did not like following the rules. At the same time, he hated it when others told him what to do.


    Chen Feng obviously took him too seriously and thought that Zhou Feng would not dare not to give him face.


    But the truth was, Zhou Feng did not take Chen Feng¡¯s words seriously at all.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng had already returned to his residence.


    After returning to his residence, the first thing he did was to take a look at the blood pool.


    He found that the blood pool was operating normally, and the Blood Gus in it were still fighting with each other.


    Among them, there were already a few that had matured. As long as he continued like this, he would soon be able to obtain a few Pure Blood Gu. This Gu refinement was not as difficult as Zhou Feng had imagined.


    ¡®I should look at the information of the mystic realm¡­¡¯


    After Zhou Feng finished looking at the blood pool, he picked up the jade slip that he had obtained from Huang Yang.


    ¡®Spiritual weapon!?¡¯


    Unlike the bits and pieces of information from before, the jade slip contained much more detailed information about the mystic realm.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng also learned why this Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm had attracted the attention of so many experts.


    The reason was very simple. There was a spiritual weapon in the mystic realm.


    Legend had it that the owner of this mystic realm was a sword cultivator and an extremely powerful one at that.


    A powerful sword cultivator would naturally have a spiritual sword.


    There was a spiritual sword in the mystic realm!


    Aside from being a top-grade spiritual artifact, this spiritual sword was also an inheritance, which contained the secret to breaking through to the Divine Ability realm.


    This was also why it had attracted the Tri-Gu Sect and the Voodoo Cult¡¯s attention.


    A top-grade spiritual weapon and a powerful sword cultivator¡¯s inheritance that could be cultivated all the way to the Divine Ability realm¡ªno one could resist such a temptation!


    ¡®The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s cultivation techniques can only be cultivated to the Purple Mansion realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng received many important pieces of information.


    The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s cultivation techniques could only be cultivated to the Purple Mansion realm? At the later stages of the Purple Mansion realm, there were no cultivation techniques!?


    This was a problem that he had never considered before.


    If Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t obtain any other cultivation techniques, his cultivation journey might stop at the Purple Mansion realm.


    That¡¯s not right! Given the current situation, it was simply impossible for him to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    At present, he could only cultivate the Demon-Devouring Technique to the Soul Altar realm, and Old Demon Gu would absolutely not allow him to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    In fact, once Zhou Feng forged his Grade-1 Soul Altar, Old Demon Gu would use the Demon-Devouring Technique to devour him.


    ¡®This cultivation technique¡¯s problem¡­¡¯


    When Zhou Feng thought of this, he realized that the problem he was facing now was life-threatening.


    No! The most important thing for him now was to break through to the Grade-1 of Soul Altar realm within a month.


    Then, he would find an opportunity to remove the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    Old Demon Gu should have his hands full with the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm.


    Once Old Demon Gu found the time, he would discover that Zhou Feng had actually improved so quickly. He would definitely nip him in the bud and not allow him to continue developing.


    It seemed that Zhou Feng had to continue using the Demon-Devouring Technique to increase his power!


    What side effects? They could not even be considered as serious consequences..

 Chapter 119 - Evil Breeds Courage

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It seems that I have to go to this mystic realm!¡±


    After Zhou Feng read all the information in the jade slip, he felt that he had to go to the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm.


    That was because all the Elders of the sect were paying attention to this mystic realm.


    Old Demon Gu should also be in this mystic realm. Once this mystic realm was closed, Old Demon Gu would definitely return to the sect, and when he did, Zhou Feng¡¯s life would be in danger.


    He didn¡¯t seem to have much time left!


    And up until now, Zhou Feng still hadn¡¯t found a way to remove the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    As his cultivation increased, Zhou Feng could already roughly feel the Demon-Devouring Seal in his body.


    This was a strange energy that was constantly wandering in his body.


    Zhou Feng had once tried to devour this energy, but he failed every time.


    This energy was like gangrene attached to bones. Once it was forcefully eradicated, Zhou Feng¡¯s life would end.


    Therefore, he planned to quickly raise his cultivation level and wait until he forged his Grade-1 Soul Altar to see if he could remove it.


    As such, he had to continue using the Demon-Devouring Technique. This was the fastest way to raise his cultivation level, so the importance of the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus was self-evident.


    ¡®There¡¯s another very important point! The Tri-Gu Sect doesn¡¯t seem to be that restrictive to me anymore!¡¯


    Zhou Feng discovered that the Tri-Gu Sect didn¡¯t seem to be as restrictive to him as in the beginning.


    Now, the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body had already been refined into his Vital Gu.


    It wouldn¡¯t pose any threat to his life.


    The strongest combatants of the Tri-Gu Sect were basically the Purple Mansion Elders.


    Nonetheless, almost none of the Elders were in the sect, so other than the sect¡¯s hidden powerhouses, the strongest combatants in the Tri-Gu Sect at the moment should be at the Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivators.


    Zhou Feng might not be able to face those Grade-1 Soul Altar geniuses head-on, but he was very confident that no one would be able to stop him if he tried to escape while placing all his focus on defense.


    When thinking about it this way, there didn¡¯t seem to be many people in the Tri-Gu Sect who could stop him right now.


    He really didn¡¯t expect that he had already grown to this extent unknowingly.


    Thinking back to when the Tri-Gu Sect had captured him, Zhou Feng had still been filled with reverence toward such a sect.


    He was different from his past self. At present, other than a few people in the Tri-Gu Sect, most people were no longer in his eyes.


    ¡®Maybe I can be more unrestrained! I am on the same level as those so-called Enforcers!¡¯


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more he felt that what he thought made sense. He was throwing away the outer shell of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s prestige.


    Those law enforcement disciples outside were not as good as him at all.


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the bolder he became.


    ¡®Anyway, there are no innocent people in such a sect!¡¯


    The pressure of Old Demon Gu¡¯s return and the increase in his own strength made the evil in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart grow stronger and stronger.


    Kill!


    Zhou Feng would still act cautiously in this blessed land, but he could go on a killing spree in the inner and outer sect!


    He could use the passive Soul Harvesting souls to assist his Demon-Devouring Technique and charge straight for a Grade-1 Soul Altar.


    He could use the mystic realm as an excuse to leave the blessed land.


    Perhaps the Tri-Gu higher-ups would not even place someone like Zhou Feng in their eyes. After all, a person who could cultivate to the Soul Altar realm was already bound to the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Only the sect could provide the Purple Mansion cultivation techniques. This included all kinds of Gu refinement knowledge, resources, and important locations like the blessed land.


    These could only be provided by the Tri-Gu Sect.


    To a certain extent, after advancing to the Soul Altar realm, they had already risen from being exploited by the sect to being in charge of exploitation.


    Under normal circumstances, everyone would automatically protect the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s interests.


    Protecting the sect¡¯s interests was also protecting their own interests.


    Other than interests, a few Purple Mansion Elders also presided over the sect.


    Once your evil thoughts were exposed, only death awaited you.


    The Tri-Gu higher-ups never imagined that someone would be so reckless and directly attack the inner and outer sect.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! Come out!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng packed his things and prepared to leave the blessed land to carry out his plan, a loud voice resounded.


    Following that, a bright light shot toward Zhou Feng like a sun.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately summoned the Purple Jade Bell.


    A large bell formed a curtain of light and blocked this light pillar.


    However, the Purple Jade Bell could only protect Zhou Feng¡ªthe surrounding buildings were not so lucky.


    The scorching light directly destroyed his residence and even the blood pool that he had just built.


    At this time, Chen Feng flew over from the horizon.


    Behind Chen Feng was a purple-red eight-trigram mirror, and the light of the sun in the sky continuously gathered on the mirror.


    ¡°Very good!¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced indifferently at the blood pool that had been destroyed, and two rare words came out of his mouth.


    Traces of anger accumulated in his eyes.


    He had wasted a lot of effort on this blood pool. The Blood Gus had just begun to be nurtured, but now there were not even any dregs left.


    ¡°No one has ever dared to look down on me like this! Ye Zai is no exception!¡± Chen Feng stared at Zhou Feng as he enunciated each word clearly.


    Chen Feng was fuming. Originally, he had asked Zhou Feng to go to the Life-Death Arena with him to have a showdown.


    After all, Zhou Feng had killed his younger brother, Chen Jin, so he had to be held accountable.


    Chen Feng had confidently headed to the Life-Death Arena to wait for a while.


    In the end, he realized that Zhou Feng had ignored him, making him wait for so long at the Life-Death Arena like a fool.


    Chen Feng was so angry that he did not care about the consequences anymore. Even if he was going to be punished, he had to end things here with Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Man and Gu become one! Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror!¡± roared Chen Feng.


    The small sun in the blessed land suddenly darkened a little, and a few rays of bright light shone down. They formed a cage, sealing off Zhou Feng.


    At this time, a strange insect shadow also appeared behind Chen Feng.


    ¡°T-That¡¯s the Blazing Sun Gu!?¡±


    ¡°Crazy! Is this Chen Feng crazy? He actually mobilized his Vital Gu to fight here?¡±


    ¡°Could it be that he¡¯s not afraid of the Enforcers?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Such a large battle formation scared the onlookers, and many people were affected by Chen Feng¡¯s attack.


    Some people even saw the insect shadow behind Chen Feng, and their expressions changed.


    How much did he hate Zhou Feng? How could he even mobilize his Vital Gu!?


    One had to know that activating one¡¯s Vital Gu to fight together was an extremely draining task.


    Although the Tri-Gu cultivators could fight together with their Gu during the battle, receiving double the battle strength, the consumption was also double. Thus, the Tri-Gu cultivators would not use their Vital Gu in battle unless absolutely necessary.


    Once their Spiritual Qi was exhausted, they could only wait for death on the spot..

 Chapter 120 - Not Right!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Demonic Qi surged around him as he faced the cage that descended from the sky.


    The Demon-Devouring Armor appeared, while the Purple Jade Bell above his head suddenly leaped and crashed into the scorching light pillar.


    At the instant it crashed into the light pillar, the Purple Jade Bell shook slightly, and a gap was instantly opened.


    ¡°Die!¡± roared Zhou Feng.


    This roar seemed to be able to shatter mountains and rivers.


    Although he was somewhat surprised that Zhou Feng was able to break through his flaming sun cage, Chen Feng did not hesitate and clashed head-on with Zhou Feng.


    Chen Feng was a Grade-3 Soul Altar cultivator. His cultivation could be said to be superior to Zhou Feng¡¯s, so there was no reason for him to admit defeat in such a head-on confrontation.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Where are the Enforcers? How long has it been? Why haven¡¯t they appeared yet?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Normally, the Enforcers should have arrived at the first possible moment!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s impossible that no one noticed such a huge commotion!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As Zhou Feng and Chen Feng engaged in battle, their attacks destroyed numerous buildings.


    Many of the surrounding disciples were anxious. Why hadn¡¯t the Enforcers appeared yet?


    Under normal circumstances, the Enforcers should have arrived at the first possible moment when such a huge commotion broke out.


    Why was there no sign of them?


    Zhou Feng was slammed to the ground, and a row of houses was destroyed.


    Chen Feng was still floating in the air with the Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror, but his face was a little pale.


    ¡®Why is it so difficult to deal with him? I mobilized my Vital Gu!¡¯


    During their short exchange, Chen Feng finally understood how difficult it was to deal with Zhou Feng.


    His defense was inexplicably terrifying, and he was able to predict his attack route every single time.


    This resulted in Chen Feng having no choice but to exchange injuries for injuries every single time.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that Zhou Feng could not fly, he would have been at a disadvantage just now.


    That¡¯s right! Chen Feng relied on the flying ability provided by his Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror to suppress Zhou Feng just now.


    After all, those at the Soul Altar realm basically couldn¡¯t learn the art of flying.


    Only when a cultivator broke through to the Purple Mansion realm and formed their soul could they learn the art of flying.


    Before that, if one wanted to fly in the air, they could only rely on spiritual artifacts.


    Coincidentally, the sealed Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror had the ability to fly, allowing Chen Feng to float in the air.


    Zhou Feng pushed away the stone brick that was pressing on his body and slowly stood up.


    ¡®My cultivation is still a little too low!¡¯


    Chen Feng could be said to be much stronger than his previous opponents.


    Whether it was his Spiritual Qi or his physical body, they were not inferior to his at all. In fact, they were much stronger than him.


    In addition, that top-grade soul artifact seemed to be unexpectedly compatible with Chen Feng. This caused Zhou Feng to fall into a disadvantageous position during the battle.


    Still, Zhou Feng had not sustained any injuries. He relied on Old Skin¡¯s defense and Tough Skin¡¯s damage reduction.


    Zhou Feng only suffered a small wound, but his Self-Healing Constitution instantly healed it.


    ¡°He¡¯s fine?¡±


    ¡°No way! He seems to be fine? Chen Feng seems to have mobilized his Vital Gu!¡±


    ¡°Also, the Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror¡¯s power is no joke. Why does he seem to be fine!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The people eating melons in the distance looked at the uninjured Zhou Feng with shocked expressions on their faces.


    One had to know that Chen Feng had mobilized his Vital Gu to fight, doubling his battle prowess.


    Then there was the Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror, which was a well-known supreme-grade soul artifact in the blessed land.


    This was because this mirror was sealed with a wisp of Blazing Sun Fire. When it was activated, it could release Blazing Sun Fire.


    This Blazing Sun Fire would burn everyone who fought with Chen Feng. If it were serious, they would even be vaporized into dried corpses.


    Unless they had a soul artifact of the same level, it was very difficult for them not to be injured.


    ¡°Sun Sword!¡±


    Chen Feng looked at the unharmed Zhou Feng, took a deep breath, and formed two sword fingers.


    The Sun Essence Qi in the surroundings gathered again, and a ball of fire suddenly appeared.


    This ball of fire was the fire of the blazing sun, and it was then condensed into a dao sword.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not want to be outdone either, so he urged the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    Soon, terrifying Demonic Qi spread throughout his body, and demonic avatars appeared behind him.


    This sword of the blazing sun disappeared from the sky as Chen Feng pointed with his finger.


    Then, all the hair on Zhou Feng¡¯s body stood up.


    The Purple Jade Bell¡¯s light curtain rose.


    The Sun Sword, which was made of the fire of the blazing sun, cut through the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s light curtain like a pair of scissors and then the Demon-Devouring Armor outside of Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    At the same time, Chen Feng¡¯s Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror shone brightly, and the dazzling light became a thin beam of light shining on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror was like a magnifying glass, focusing all the sunlight on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Zhou Feng instantly felt a burning sensation all over his body.


    His entire body was on fire!


    ¡°It¡¯s over! This Zhou Feng is no match for Chen Feng!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no other way! Chen Feng has been in the blessed land for God knows how long, and his cultivation is even higher than Zhou Feng¡¯s.¡±


    ¡°Too ruthless! Chen Feng didn¡¯t hold back from the beginning. He didn¡¯t even give Zhou Feng a chance!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After seeing this scene, many people believed that Zhou Feng had already lost.


    This was because Chen Feng had given his all from the beginning and had not given Zhou Feng a chance at all.


    Regarding this result, many people thought that it was very normal.


    Compared to Zhou Feng, Chen Feng had been the blessed land for a very long time.


    His Spiritual Qi was polished to an extremely pure state. At the same time, his soul artifacts, cultivation method, martial techniques, and Vital Gu all fused together, forming a unified system.


    When he fought, he would be able to unleash several times his strength.


    This was purely a suppression of strength!


    ¡®This is impossible!¡¯


    Unexpectedly, Chen Feng had an unsightly expression at this moment.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was still very strong and had not weakened at all!


    The bright light slowly dissipated, and Zhou Feng¡¯s figure became visible again in front of everyone.


    A piece of charcoal!


    That¡¯s right! Right now, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance was like a piece of charcoal. All the skin on his body was burnt.


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng shouted, ¡°Die!¡±


    A strange demonic avatar appeared once again while a stream of Demonic Qi surged up like a tide.


    Zhou Feng suddenly erupted, jumped up, and threw a punch at Chen Feng.


    Chen Feng, who was already prepared, also used the Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror to block the punch.


    ¡®Dang!¡¯


    The Purple Jade Bell vibrated crazily. Chen Feng was caught off guard, his mouth and nose bleeding from the impact.


    ¡°Why!?¡±


    Feeling Zhou Feng¡¯s abundant Spiritual Qi, Chen Feng could not hold it in anymore.


    Why was Zhou Feng still able to possess such abundant Spiritual Qi?


    Who could tell him why Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries were slowly recovering?


    At that moment, more than a dozen of Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills were simultaneously triggered, counterattacking the bewildered Chen Feng..

 Chapter 121 - Betraying the Sect!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Apart from using the Purple Jade Bell to protect his body, Zhou Feng had also used all sorts of passive skills.


    The most important one was probably the newly obtained Tough Skin, which had a fixed damage reduction effect and was triggered with every single attack.


    Earlier, Chen Feng¡¯s Sun Sword had dealt continuous damage. In layman¡¯s terms, it unleashed multiple attacks, and each of these attacks¡¯ damage was reduced due to the passive Tough Skin.


    Otherwise, Zhou Feng would have long been vaporized into dried meat.


    This should be Chen Feng¡¯s trump card and also his strongest move.


    This move could only be used when the Vital Gu was mobilized and when the environment allowed it.


    Drawing in the surrounding Sun Essence Qi, coupled with the wisp of Blazing Sun Fire contained in the Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror, was more than enough to deal with a Grade-6 Soul Altar cultivator.


    Initially, Chen Feng had already heaved a sigh of relief.


    However, he did not expect Zhou Feng to be fine. That aura had not weakened at all, and he even counterattacked.


    ¡®This passive Whetstone is so useful!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could feel his physical strength and Demonic Qi were recovering rapidly. He could not help but sigh at the passive Whetstone¡¯s effect.


    That¡¯s right!


    He had expended a lot of stamina in order to block Chen Feng¡¯s ultimate attack.


    However, because of the passive Whetstone¡¯s effect, he could gain a little bit of stamina after every battle.


    Previously, Zhou Feng did not know how many battles he had fought, so he had already accumulated a lot of stamina.


    Now, he also did not know how strong his stamina was.


    In any case, he felt that half of his physical strength had recovered after taking a few breaths.


    This ¡®take a breath and recover blood¡¯ method was the real deal.


    Although Zhou Feng had the worst hand cultivation-wise, he took the upper hand with his passive buffs. He was facing an enemy whose cultivation level was higher than his, yet he was not at a disadvantage at all.


    The sky exploded with surging Demonic Qi, and a large black hand appeared.


    Zhou Feng once again used the Demon-Devouring Battle Art and condensed a huge hand. The surrounding black clouds billowed as a strange and crazy aura started to pervade the area.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    Chen Feng gnashed his teeth as he circulated the remaining Spiritual Qi in his body and used the Blazing Sun Octa-Trigrams Mirror to defend himself.


    A set of fire clothes instantly draped over his body.


    Using the Sun Sword had already consumed a large amount of Chen Feng¡¯s physical strength and Spiritual Qi.


    Now, he was somewhat powerless against Zhou Feng, who had unleashed his full strength.


    ¡°Stop! Who dares to cause trouble here!?¡±


    ¡°To dare to make a move here, does he not want to live anymore?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At that moment, the Enforcers that should have appeared earlier suddenly jumped out and shouted at Zhou Feng righteously.


    Under such circumstances, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this seemed to be a trap aimed at Zhou Feng.


    When Chen Feng had come to find Zhou Feng and almost crushed him to death with one move, the Enforcers did not appear.


    Even a row of buildings had collapsed, but they still did not appear.


    Now that Zhou Feng had the upper hand, the Enforcers came out.


    ¡°I say! Given the scale of the commotion, the Enforcers must have definitely been able to detect it!¡±


    ¡°He can make the Enforcers so obedient? Looks like Gong Jiu made a move!¡±


    ¡°Gong Jiu!? This person has a grudge against Gong Jiu?¡±


    ¡°What a pity! The Enforcers are here. If they make another move, it will be no different from courting death! The battle has to stop now!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people looked at Zhou Feng pitifully. Had the Enforcers not arrived, Zhou Feng and Chen Feng could have continued fighting.


    But now that the Enforcers had appeared, if they continued fighting, it would mean that they were looking down on the sect¡¯s prestige.


    At that time, using this excuse, Zhou Feng and Chen Feng might have to enter the Nurturing Gu Pond together.


    It was not easy for Zhou Feng to gain the upper hand, but he could only stop now. This was too upsetting, especially since this was a trap aimed at him.


    It was precisely because of this reason that many people looked at Zhou Feng pitifully.


    Clearly, the person who plotted against Zhou Feng was skilled.


    ¡®What a pity! If I let you cultivate for a little longer, you might really become a strong contender for the Sect Leader position! But it¡¯s too late!¡¯


    At that moment, the madness on Chen Feng¡¯s face disappeared without a trace. Instead, his face wore a calm expression, his eyes betraying a hint of mockery.


    It was as if he was mocking Zhou Feng for not daring to make a move.


    In the next second, however, Chen Feng felt that something was not right.


    Zhou Feng had no intention of stopping at all, and the huge handprint pressed down.


    ¡°You dare!?¡± Chen Feng¡¯s eyes revealed fear.


    The huge handprint pressed Chen Feng directly to the ground.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Technique!¡±


    Zhou Feng used the Demon-Devouring Technique again, and streams of Demonic Qi drilled into Chen Feng¡¯s mouth and nose.


    Chen Feng, whose entire body was almost crushed, was unable to resist.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    ¡°Are you crazy? Making a move in front of the Enforcers! Even if you kill me, you won¡¯t be able to escape¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly and completely ignored Chen Feng.


    ¡®Enforcers? So what?¡¯


    Now that the situation was already like this, could it be that he wouldn¡¯t be punished if he stopped?


    This was clearly a trap aimed at him.


    In addition, Zhou Feng was already prepared to carry out the crazy plan in his heart. What was there to be afraid of mere Enforcers?


    Not to mention that there were only three Enforcers, and their cultivation was not high either. They were Grade-5 Soul Altar cultivators.


    ¡°How dare you!¡±


    ¡°You dare to look down on the dignity of the sect! I advise you to surrender quickly!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Enforcers were infuriated as Zhou Feng defied them and continued attacking.


    There was someone who dared to ignore their dignity? This was simply courting death!


    Based on this point alone, they would be able to kill Zhou Feng on the spot without paying any price!


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced indifferently at the Enforcers. He did not utter a single word, but the invisible pressure he exuded made him look intimidating.


    The three Enforcers were frightened by Zhou Feng¡¯s imposing manner.


    They suddenly realized that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t put them in his eyes. The three of them alone would not be able to defeat him.


    Zhou Feng could not stay in this place anymore, so he had to take advantage of this time to leave the blessed land.


    There was only one way to leave the blessed land: to use the teleportation formation leading to the outside world.


    Now that he had offended the Enforcers, he would definitely not be able to use the teleportation formation later.


    Zhou Feng grabbed Chen Feng, who had turned into a demonic cocoon, and his figure disappeared from where he was.


    ¡°You still dare to escape?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    The Enforcers were furious.


    It was one thing to ignore the prestige of the sect, but now he actually dared to escape. This was a serious betrayal of the sect!


    ¡°Let him escape! Wait a day before reporting this. I want to label this person as a traitor to the sect!¡±


    A voice suddenly sounded in the Enforcers¡¯ heads.


    And it was this voice that caused the Enforcers, who had originally planned to act immediately, to stop.


    Betraying the sect!


    If this was really determined, then no matter who Zhou Feng had as his backer, he would only end up dead.


    Anyone who betrayed the sect would only end up dead.. This was the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s bottom line!

 Chapter 122 - Cultivation Jumps

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng had already done his homework, so he easily used the teleportation formation to leave the blessed land.


    It was always difficult to get in the blessed land but easy to get out.


    Once he used the teleportation formation to leave, an authorized person would have to lead him if he wanted to enter the blessed land again.


    Otherwise, it would be challenging to enter the blessed land again.


    Thus, under normal circumstances, no one would leave the blessed land on their own accord.


    The blessed land had so much Spiritual Qi and all sorts of resources only a fool would choose to leave.


    Because of this, Zhou Feng left the blessed land with great ease.


    ¡®So smooth?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was somewhat surprised. No one interrogated him, nor were there any pursuers behind him.


    He left just like that.


    After a spell of dizziness, he returned to Mount Gu¡¯s main peak.


    From the blessed land to the main peak, Zhou Feng could feel that the surrounding Spiritual Qi had become much thinner.


    It even made him feel uncomfortable.


    This feeling was like being in a region with fresh air for a long time, returning to a region with heavy air pollution.


    Although Zhou Feng was a little uncomfortable, he still tried to adapt.


    Furthermore, he did not stay any longer and directly left the main peak. He planned to find a place to rest first.


    After that, he would use the Demon-Devouring Technique to swallow Chen Feng and then start harvesting souls from the outer sect.


    ¡­


    At the same time that Zhou Feng left the blessed land, the evidence of his betrayal to the sect was being produced.


    Gong Jiu only needed to wait for a short period to report this evidence to the higher-ups. Then Zhou Feng would definitely be unable to escape, and the threat would be removed.


    However, what Gong Jiu might not have expected was that Zhou Feng was preparing to betray the sect at this moment.


    He didn¡¯t even need to frame him. Once Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were exposed, he would definitely die.


    This could be said to have hit the nail on the head.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng directly entered the forest, relying on his Nature Affinity.


    He didn¡¯t alarm anyone, not even the small animals, and randomly found a cave to use as a temporary residence.


    ¡°Let¡¯s set up a formation first!¡±


    Zhou Feng took a formation flag out of his storage ring and set up a crude warning formation around him. It would warn anyone who approached it, and it did not have any defensive or offensive abilities.


    This was something from the Han Clan¡¯s treasury. It could be set up automatically just by activating the formation flag with Spiritual Qi.


    Zhou Feng had also discovered it when he was cleaning the storage ring. Now, he could use it.


    After setting up the warning formation, he took the demonic cocoon out of his storage bag.


    The one inside the demonic cocoon was Chen Feng. The current Chen Feng had already been completely corroded by the Demonic Qi.


    The simplest principle of the Demon-Devouring Technique was actually to corrode the enemy with the Demonic Qi.


    After corroding, the enemy would transform into a special form of Demonic Qi.


    At present, this special Demonic Qi was being assimilated. This was the so-called Demon-Devouring Technique.


    No one knew how Old Demon Gu had mastered this strange technique.


    ¡°Devour!¡±


    Zhou Feng circulated the Demonic Qi and transformed Chen Feng¡¯s entire body into a stream of Demonic Qi. Then, he swallowed it in one gulp.


    It felt as if a bomb had been thrown into his body!


    The Demonic Qi in his entire body and even his Soul Altar started to riot.


    This was completely different from the first time he had used Demon-Devouring. This time, it was even more dangerous.


    ¡°This!¡±


    The originally clear and bright Soul Altar suddenly became darker.


    Some memories began to appear.


    ¡®These are Chen Feng¡¯s memories?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng received a huge spiritual shock.


    This kind of spiritual shock was testing a person¡¯s willpower. If one¡¯s willpower did not pass the test, it was very likely that these memories would assimilate them.


    They might even split into a personality just like Old Demon Gu before. He had devoured too many people, developed countless personalities, and didn¡¯t even know who he was. Only a few powerful personalities took turns to control the body.


    Perhaps, because Zhou Feng came from a different world, the spiritual impact didn¡¯t affect his memories as much as he had imagined.


    Zhou Feng maintained a trace of clarity.


    ¡°It¡¯s finally over!¡±


    After the somewhat dangerous process was over, it was time to reap the rewards.


    ¡°Grade-4 Soul Altar!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that he now had a Grade-4 Soul Altar!?


    After using the Demon-Devouring Technique to swallow Chen Feng, he jumped two levels from Grade-6 to Grade-4!


    Such a cultivation speed was comparable to riding a rocket.


    While the others were still working hard to push forward bit by bit, he jumped two levels straight away.


    As expected! An evil technique was an evil technique!


    Both risks and benefits coexisted.


    Zhou Feng felt that his Demonic Qi and soul power were more powerful compared to before.


    The most obvious change should be the Demon-Devouring Gu!


    Ever since Zhou Feng had refined the Demon-Devouring Gu into his Vital Gu, he had been able to feel its condition at all times.


    Now, the Demon-Devouring Gu was extremely active and could already move about within his body. It was not limited to a single location.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu even informed Zhou Feng that it had awakened an ability.


    That was the possession ability!


    Now, the Demon-Devouring Gu could leave Zhou Feng¡¯s body and possess someone else¡¯s body or a demonic beast¡¯s body.


    After using the possession ability, it could control the enemy or bite off the enemy¡¯s heart.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu now could fight independently!


    ¡®Is this the person and Gu battle prowess that I had been hearing about all this time?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had never thought that the Demon-Devouring Gu now could fight independently.


    It was worth it! This Demon-Devouring Technique was worth it!


    But just as he thought of this, a strange illusion appeared in front of his eyes.


    His ears started to hear murmurs, constantly disturbing his mind.


    Zhou Feng also felt that he was strangely angry.


    Was he unable to control his emotions?


    After enduring for a while, the illusion in front of him and the murmurs in his ears slowly faded away.


    Zhou Feng let out a long sigh of relief. Cold sweat had already covered his forehead.


    This side effect was too serious!


    If this side effect was not resolved, he should use this Demon-Devouring Technique as little as possible.


    The joy in his heart was also because this side effect had weakened quite a bit.


    After Zhou Feng calmed down, he took another look at his Soul Altar.


    ¡®Eh? Why is the Purple Jade Bell¡­¡¯


    He suddenly noticed there was something different with the bell.


    The originally dazzling Purple Jade Bell was dim, and there wasn¡¯t even a trace of light.


    And the medicinal gourd, which was also on the Soul Altar, was squeezed to the edge of the Soul Altar.


    The Purple Jade Bell occupied the most central position of the Soul Altar, constantly receiving the nurturing of the divine soul and Demonic Qi.


    Recalling that the Purple Jade Bell had already begun to transform from a soul artifact into a spiritual artifact, Zhou Feng swallowed his saliva and could not help but make guesses.


    ¡®Could it be that¡­ the Purple Jade Bell has successfully transformed into a spiritual artifact!?¡¯

 Chapter 123 - 20 Passive Skills!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Ever since Zhou Feng had learned that the Purple Jade Bell might transform into a spiritual artifact, he had been paying attention to its transformation progress.


    Although the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s transformation was very slow, its progress speed would accelerate every time his cultivation base increased.


    And this time, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation base directly jumped to Grade-4 of the Soul Altar realm.


    The Purple Jade Bell¡¯s transformation seemed to have accelerated because of this.


    ¡®Not yet¡­ but it seems to be fast!¡¯


    Zhou Feng carefully sensed the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s transformation and discovered that a wisp of spirituality was already in the process of being nurtured. He believed that it wouldn¡¯t be long before the Purple Jade Bell could truly transform into a spiritual artifact.


    His cultivation base had jumped to Grade-4 of the Soul Altar realm in an instant, while the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s transformation was accelerated.


    Zhou Feng was moving in a good direction again!


    ¡®This is a good opportunity to sort out my current situation!¡¯


    Zhou Feng took advantage of this time to sort out his current situation.


    The first thing he wanted to do was to use passive skills as the basis of his foundation.


    It could be said that many of Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills were his main support, allowing him to escape danger effortlessly.


    According to the order of acquisition, Gluttony (Level 2), Old Skin, Self-Healing Constitution, Battle Instinct, Bone Coating¡­


    Counting in detail, Zhou Feng had already acquired a total of 20 passive skills.


    Although he knew he had obtained a lot, this number gave him a shock.


    ¡®I already have 20 passive skills!?¡¯


    This seemed to be less than a year!


    If this trend continued, it wouldn¡¯t be a dream to have thousands of passive skills.


    As long as Zhou Feng lived long enough, he would be able to accumulate all kinds of passive skills over time.


    One had to know that each time one broke through a major realm, their lifespan would increase from the Soul Altar realm onward.


    Living for a few hundred years wasn¡¯t a problem for some almighty cultivators.


    Not to mention that he had the passive Longevity, which directly gave him an extra 20 years of lifespan out of thin air.


    ¡®So many passive skills¡­ Will I still be able to remember them clearly in the future?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt a little anxious over his many passive skills.


    The further he went, the more passive skills he would have, and even he might not be able to remember them clearly.


    ¡®But I should be able to remember most of the useful and important passive skills!¡¯ Zhou Feng slowly comforted himself in his heart.


    Among his many passive skills, not all of them were useful.


    In the future, he only needed to remember the important passive skills.


    Take the current passive skills that he had as an example.


    Skills like Nature Affinity, Fisherman, Amorous Prodigal Heart, and so on, were kind of useless under normal circumstances.


    On the other hand, passive growth-type skills like Master Hunter, Soul Harvesting, and Whetstone were of paramount importance. These passive skills could be stacked continuously, increasing Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    There were also passive skills such as Battle Instinct, Bone Coating, Aura Blade, and Armor-Piercing Spear, which could play a very strong role in battle.


    Zhou Feng could completely rely on these passive skills to make his own future plans and battle style to become stronger.


    Old Skin, Tough Skin, along with Unyielding Heart and Self-Healing Constitution, allowed him to recover passively, so his battle style leaned toward head-on battles, exchanging injuries for injuries.


    ¡®Other than these passive skills, I only have the Purple Jade Bell as a soul weapon! I haven¡¯t raised any Gu yet, but the Demon-Devouring Gu seems to be able to fight on its own now!¡¯


    Other than the passive skills, Zhou Feng appeared to be much weaker in all other aspects.


    He only had one soul artifact. It was considered a small number compared to others who had three or four.


    Still, the Purple Jade Bell would transform into a spiritual artifact, so it was not at a disadvantage in this aspect.


    As for new Gu, he did not have the time to refine any. He only had his Vital Gu to assist him in battle.


    Dao arts? The same as before, the four Demon-Devouring Arts¡ª Armor, Battle Art, Physique, Technique.


    Zhou Feng could barely reach minor success, and he did not have the chance to master them or learn new dao arts and techniques.


    After sorting it out, Zhou Feng felt that he should try his best to make use of his strengths.


    In other aspects, Zhou Feng would not be able to compete with others. Only with more passive skills could he continue to suppress those geniuses and monsters.


    Therefore, he felt that he only needed to obtain more passive skills.


    ¡®Oh right! I just broke through. According to the rules, the skill panel¡¯s progress bar should be full!¡¯


    Zhou Feng recalled the previous rule.


    That was that every time he broke through, the skill panel¡¯s progress bar would increase.


    Therefore, he opened the skill panel immediately.


    As expected, the progress bar was full. He could draw passive skills again.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing!¡±


    The next thing he knew was how many times he had gone through the process of drawing.


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Injury Conversion: Your injuries can be converted into attack power! The more serious your injuries are, the higher your attack power will be!


    The maximum attack power will be doubled!


    ¡®Injury Conversion? The more health I have, the more powerful my attack power will be!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was bewildered upon seeing this new passive skill.


    Wasn¡¯t this directly forcing him to become a Berserker!?


    If it was a little more extreme, wouldn¡¯t his attack power be doubled if he kept himself in a near-death state?


    Then, this could be combined with his Unyielding Heart!


    The Unyielding Heart¡¯s effect was that the more severe the injury, the faster the healing speed would be.


    This way, he didn¡¯t have to be afraid of making a careless mistake and try to dodge. The more severe the injury, the higher his attack power would be.


    At the same time, the recovery speed of the injury would also become very fast.


    After that, he would exchange injuries with the enemy to keep the injuries in the same range.


    Zhou Feng now had an embryonic form of his future fighting style in his mind.


    ¡®What a pity! I only have one passive regeneration constitution! It would be great if I could have one passive that could speed up the recovery of my injuries!¡¯


    It was a pity that Zhou Feng only had one passive skill that could heal his injuries.


    That was the Self-Healing Constitution. If he could have a few more passive healing constitutions, he could directly carry out the strategy of exchanging injuries for injuries.


    In the future, no matter who they were, Zhou Feng could go up and fight head-on to see who could withstand it better.


    This new passive was not bad.


    It made up for his lack of attacking methods to a certain extent.


    ¡®Next, it is time to stack the passive skills! Let¡¯s start from the outer sect! Or rather, let¡¯s start from the Gu Refinement Cave!¡¯


    Since Zhou Feng had sorted out his strengths and weaknesses and drawn a new passive skill, he could put his previous plan in motion.


    He would harvest the souls from the outer and inner sect!


    The passive Soul Harvesting could increase his soul power, indirectly aiding his cultivation speed.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first target was the Gu Refinement Cave, the place he had climbed out of with great difficulty.


    ¡®Gu Refinement Cave¡­ It seems that the strongest person stationed there does not even have a Soul Altar! Back then, I still believed that there were Elders in the Gu Refinement Cave!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze suddenly sharpened upon thinking back to the time he had experienced in the Gu Refinement Cave..

 Chapter 124 - The Disgusting Meat Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The Gu Refinement Cave was where the Tri-Gu Sect raised the Meat Gu.


    Compared to the small town that surrounded Mount Gu, the Gu Refinement Cave mainly relied on capturing people to replenish its manpower.


    The Tri-Gu Sect continuously captured vagrant villagers and slaves outside, sent them to the Gu Refinement Cave, and planted Gu in them.


    Zhou Feng had experienced it himself.


    If one was lucky, they could become an inner disciple.


    If they were not lucky enough, they could only become the Meat Gu¡¯s food.


    A few Qi Condensation inner disciples were guarding around the Gu Refinement Cave to prevent accidents from happening.


    ¡®The first one!¡¯


    Zhou Feng relied on his passive Nature Affinity to blend in with the surrounding environment.


    Then, his Demonic Qi surged, and the inner disciple guarding outside the Gu Refinement Cave suddenly blacked out, losing his life force.


    Given his Grade-4 Soul Altar cultivation, dealing with a mere Qi Condensation inner disciple was overkill. That disciple did not even have the chance to react.


    ¡®It did not trigger?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned because the passive Soul Harvesting was not triggered.


    It did not matter, however. Although there were not many people in the Gu Refinement Cave, the inner sect had way more people.


    He planned to get rid of all the inner disciples guarding outside the Gu Refinement Cave and then sneak into the Gu Refinement Cave.


    Zhou Feng relied on his Nature Affinity to travel through the forest.


    The second one!


    The third one!


    The fourth one!


    The four inner disciples guarding the place were all killed.


    Using his Grade-4 Soul Altar cultivation to sneak attack these Qi Condensation inner disciples was indeed a little overkill.


    These four people had only triggered the passive Soul Harvesting once.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s spiritual power had only increased by a strand, and he was still a little far from breaking through to Grade-3 of the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡®Is it because of the cultivation difference?¡¯


    Previously, when he killed people in the Soul Altar realm, he could trigger the passive Soul Harvesting almost every time.


    However, when he killed these people with Qi Condensation cultivation, the chances of triggering the passive state decreased by a lot.


    After Zhou Feng cleaned up the corpses in front of him, he set up a simple formation at the intersection.


    It was still set up directly with the formation flag.


    This was a warning formation. Once someone passed by here, Zhou Feng would be able to know.


    ¡­


    Mo Qianjiang was an inner disciple with average aptitude. He had been in the Tri-Gu Sect for more than ten years and had exhausted his potential.


    In the end, he had barely broken through to the Qi Condensation realm. The new disciples who had entered later had even surpassed him.


    In addition to the intense internal conflict, this caused Mo Qianjiang to take the initiative to become a manager in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Compared to the intense internal conflict, he was the person with the highest cultivation in Gu Refinement Cave.


    He was the emperor in this place, and one gaze of his decided how the peasants had to live. It was much better to retire here than in the inner sect.


    The people under him would offer many good things from time to time to curry favor with him. That was especially the case for the twins that were offered yesterday. They seemed to be under the age of 20.


    It was a pity that their bodies had been too weak, and they died in the process. Later on, he would call some people to send them to the Meat Gu. Otherwise, Mo Qianjiang would have wanted to keep the twins to serve him!


    ¡°What a pity!¡±


    Mo Qianjiang hummed a little tune as usual and prepared to inspect the caves.


    As soon as he arrived at the cave entrance, Mo Qianjiang smelled a thick smell of blood.


    ¡®What happened!?¡¯


    The thick smell of blood made Mo Qianjiang shudder, and the Spiritual Qi in his body started to circulate.


    ¡®Someone invaded the sect? That¡¯s impossible! Even if someone invaded the sect, they shouldn¡¯t have done it here!¡¯


    Mo Qianjiang¡¯s first thought was that someone had invaded the sect.


    Then he thought about it and felt that it was unlikely. After all, the Gu Refinement Cave was a garbage dump. Even if someone did invade the sect, they wouldn¡¯t target this place.


    ¡®Could it be that the news of the twins¡¯ death has spread? Are their families here to cause trouble?


    ¡®They are simply courting death!¡¯


    Mo Qianjiang quickly thought of a possibility, and a trace of anger immediately appeared on his face.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    A large hand stretched out from behind Mo Qianjiang, and a crisp bone-breaking sound echoed.


    The hand had grabbed Mo Qianjiang¡¯s neck and twisted it slightly.


    The entire process took less than a second, and Mo Qianjiang died instantly!


    Even now, Mo Qianjiang¡¯s face still wore the same expression as before.


    ¡®This is the last one!¡¯


    Zhou Feng swung his right hand and threw Mo Qianjiang¡¯s corpse to the side.


    Although he knew that there were many heartless people in the Gu Refinement Cave and countless tragedies had happened, he still underestimated the people here.


    Just this cave alone had countless white bones buried underground.


    Zhou Feng had just discovered a small prison where many people were locked up. Most of them were women and a small number of children.


    And these people¡¯s eyes were basically numb like a corpse¡¯s while their bodies were covered in wounds. No one knew what humiliation they had suffered.


    What angered Zhou Feng the most was the place where the Meat Gu¡¯s feed was made.


    In that place, the dismembered human corpses were steamed together with other things.


    That was definitely the most disgusting scene that Zhou Feng had ever seen.


    When Zhou Feng killed others with his own hands, he did not throw up. However, he almost did so when he saw that unnerving scene just now.


    ¡®What a disgusting place!¡¯


    Zhou Feng used his super-strong perception to investigate the surroundings.


    There should be no living people around here, which meant that this Meat Gu hole had been completely cleaned up.


    After killing so many people, the passive Soul Harvesting had only been triggered three times.


    Three more stands of soul power were added.


    ¡°Now, only that Meat Gu is left!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the hole, planning to enter and directly finish off that Meat Gu.


    Such a disgusting thing should not exist in this world.


    Moreover, back when he would feed the Meat Gu, he had been in danger many times. It was time to take revenge!


    He walked into the hole and passed through a long passage.


    Soon, a Meat Gu appeared in front of him.


    A fat worm was squirming on the ground, its back was covered in warts, and its mouth was still covered in disgusting mucus.


    It was still as disgusting as before.


    This Meat Gu sensed Zhou Feng¡¯s arrival and started to howl as if it was stimulated. At the same time, it started to struggle crazily, large amounts of pus flowing out of its body.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡±


    Zhou Feng directly used the Purple Jade Bell against such a disgusting thing.


    The Purple Jade Bell shook slightly, and the Meat Gu exploded into countless small pieces of meat.


    Even so, these small pieces of meat were still squirming on the spot. Their tenacious vitality was truly out of his expectations.


    In order to prevent the revival of the dead, Zhou Feng used the Purple Jade Bell again.


    At this time, the meat turned into minced meat, and the Meat Gu had no chance of survival..

 Chapter 125 - Slaughter: Commence!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Hunt successful!¡±


    When Zhou Feng killed the Meat Gu, a message popped up.


    It turned out that the passive Master Hunter had been triggered. This Meat Gu was also a new species, so his perception increased a little.


    ¡®This thing¡¯s vitality is really tenacious!¡¯


    Zhou Feng used his super-strong perception to scan his surroundings again.


    After confirming that there were no fish that had escaped the net, he prepared to head to another cave.


    There were countless caves in the Gu Refinement Cave.


    He had to hurry because he had a feeling that there was not much time left. His eyebrows kept jumping as if he was about to face great danger.


    ¡®Next!¡¯


    Next, Zhou Feng began to sweep through the Gu Refinement Cave.


    There weren¡¯t even Soul Altar cultivators here, so no one could stop him.


    In addition, the Gu Refinement Cave itself was isolated, not communicating with the outside world.


    Therefore, the Tri-Gu higher-ups were in the dark that the Gu Refinement Cave was about to be completely annihilated.


    In the blessed land¡­


    Gong Jiu began to showcase his influence, and now Zhou Feng¡¯s betrayal had been confirmed.


    Next, they only needed to wait for the Elders to confirm the matter, and then they could capture Zhou Feng.


    After all, disciples who could enter the blessed land had potential.


    Such a talented person could not be killed at will. They needed the Elders¡¯ permission at the very least. Only then could they directly take action.


    Gong Jiu wanted to kill Zhou Feng, so he had to follow all the formal procedures to do so.


    ¡°Did you hear? Zhou Feng, who was brought back by Eldest Senior Sister, has betrayed the sect!¡±


    ¡°Betrayed the sect? No way! is anyone that stupid?¡±


    ¡°Yeah! Isn¡¯t betraying the sect courting death?¡±


    ¡°Of course it¡¯s not voluntary! It¡¯s Gong Jiu¡¯s revenge. After all, Zhou Feng killed Gong Qu!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people were discussing Zhou Feng in the blessed land.


    The crime of betraying the sect was too big; it was equivalent to sending someone to their death.


    One had to know that the Tri-Gu Sect had always had zero tolerance for traitors.


    Sometimes, the traitors had to be dealt with no matter how high the price was.


    There had once been a genius in the sect who wanted to betray the sect for some unknown reason.


    At that time, the Tri-Gu Sect had paid the price to eliminate this person, with a few Elders being injured.


    The Tri-Gu higher-ups were very clear that the sect¡¯s management style was too rough. If there was no high pressure, the hearts of the people in the sect would easily fall apart.


    This could also be considered as protecting the sect¡¯s foundation!


    ¡°It seems that Gong Jiu¡¯s connections are still as powerful as ever!¡±


    ¡°The most popular candidates for the Sect Leader position should be Ye Zai and Gong Jiu!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s these two people. Although Ye Zai¡¯s cultivation is higher, Gong Jiu still has the advantage in terms of connections!¡±


    ¡°I wonder who will take the Sect Leader position in the end!¡±


    As they chatted, the people in the blessed land also talked about the Sect Leader position.


    There was no other way!


    The Sect Leader¡¯s position should be the most important matter within the Tri-Gu Sect at the moment.


    The old Sect Leader seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, so everyone wanted to become the Sect Leader.


    The Ice Spirit faction was also unwilling to hand over the Sect Leader¡¯s position.


    They planned to push Leng Maner to become the new Sect Leader, but the other two factions would not allow the Ice Spirit faction to have another Sect Leader.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng was not unaware of what was happening in the blessed land.


    At that moment, he killed another Meat Gu.


    ¡®The probability of triggering this is too low!¡¯


    Feeling the slow increase in his soul power, Zhou Feng thought that he should change his target.


    The probability of triggering the Soul Harvesting after killing the people in the Gu Refinement Cave was too low.


    After destroying so many nests, the increase in soul power was too little.


    Zhou Feng planned to target the inner sect. Compared to this place, there were more experts in the inner sect.


    The only thing that made him a little doubtful was whether there were any hidden experts in the inner sect.


    As long as they were at the Soul Altar realm, he could deal with them.


    But those above the Soul Altar realm would be difficult to deal with.


    ¡®According to the information I received before, most of the Elders have left the sect!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had previously collected information in the sect¡¯s blessed land.


    The sect was fighting against the Voodoo Cult, so there were practically no internal defenses.


    Most of the Elders had already left the sect. Only a few important areas of the sect, such as the blessed land, were guarded by experts.


    As for the inner sect, only a few Soul Altar cultivators were probably defending it. Even some of the older Soul Altar cultivators were not present, only a few ordinary Soul Altar cultivators.


    In other words, if this information was not wrong, the inner sect was now allowing him to roam freely.


    ¡®How about I try my hand on a random mountain?¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly made up his mind.


    The Gu Refinement Cave was almost destroyed anyway.


    ¡®Inner sect! Let¡¯s Go!¡¯


    ¡­


    The first mountain that Zhou Feng chose was Penta-Poison Peak.


    He was immune to poison, while everyone on Penta-Poison Peak used poison.


    This persimmon was naturally a soft one.


    Thus, Zhou Feng chose Penta-Poison Peak as his target.


    ¡°Stop! You don¡¯t seem to be a Penta-Poison disciple!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter? If you¡¯re not a Penta-Poison disciple, you can¡¯t go up the mountain!¡±


    Not long after, Zhou Feng arrived at the foot of the Penta-Poison Peak and was stopped by two Penta-Poison disciples.


    ¡®The strongest is only a Grade-5 Soul Altar pipsqueak?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say a word. He used his extremely strong senses to detect if there were any experts on Penta-Poison Peak.


    As expected, it was the same as the information he had gathered previously.


    Currently, the strongest person on Penta-Poison Peak was only a Grade-5 Soul Altar cultivator. Zhou Feng could directly crush them if that was all they had.


    ¡®The only thing I need to pay attention to is¡­ I can¡¯t cause too much of a commotion!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s heartbeat slightly sped up, and Demonic Qi slowly lingered around his body.


    ¡°Hey! I¡¯m talking to you! What are you trying to do?¡±


    The Penta-Poison disciple on guard duty looked at Zhou Feng, who did not say a word, and his face immediately revealed his impatience.


    Unfortunately, he didn¡¯t realize what was about to happen.


    But thinking about it, it made sense. A person was acting rebelliously in the inner sect?


    Who would believe this? This was simply courting death!


    Once they were discovered, even if the Elders didn¡¯t make a move, they would still be besieged and killed.


    It was too difficult for a person to fight against a sect, let alone fight in the sect¡¯s home ground.


    ¡®Demon Devouring Battle Art!¡¯


    The Demonic Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body suddenly exploded, and a demonic avatar appeared behind him.


    Two tentacles condensed from Demonic Qi suddenly pierced through the chests of the two Penta-Poison disciples.


    The speed was so fast that the two didn¡¯t even have time to react.


    ¡°Are you¡­ crazy?¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    The two Penta-Poison disciples¡¯ eyes widened. They couldn¡¯t believe that a fool would actually attack them.


    This was the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s foot! Wasn¡¯t attacking them a slap to the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s face!?


    At that time, the seniors on the mountain would definitely not let the person in front of them off.


    No matter where Zhou Feng hid, it would be useless. In the end, he would only end up dead..

 Chapter 126 - Madness

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The slaughter had begun!


    Zhou Feng let go of all his misgivings and immersed himself in the slaughter.


    Everyone on Penta-Poison Peak reacted very slowly. After all, who would have thought that such a madman would start the slaughter without caring about anything?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Demonic Qi surged and emitted a pitch-black light. The demonic avatar behind him became more and more vivid.


    Countless tentacles formed, penetrating anyone as soon as they approached.


    Then, the Purple Jade Bell slowly floated above his head.


    Once Zhou Feng realized that something was wrong, he would immediately use the Purple Jade Bell to suppress everything. He would not let anyone have the chance to send out a distress signal.


    The current Penta-Poison Peak was in chaos.


    ¡°What happened? What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°Someone¡¯s coming up?¡±


    ¡°What!? They¡¯re coming up? Are you crazy!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The crowd couldn¡¯t believe that someone was coming up from the foot of the mountain.


    What kind of joke was this? Even the Bloodthirsty faction wouldn¡¯t make such a stupid decision.


    If they made a move in the sect, wouldn¡¯t they have something to use against them?


    However, as Zhou Feng kept killing people and his cultivation became stronger, many people started to panic.


    ¡°Gather! Gather quickly!¡±


    ¡°Everyone, be on guard!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The entire Penta-Poison Peak heard of the chimes of a bell, and then everyone began to gather in one place.


    Among them were a few Soul Altar cultivators, who could be considered the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s strongest combatants at the moment.


    ¡®I still couldn¡¯t suppress the commotion¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were slightly bloodshot as he glanced at the top of the mountain.


    As expected, he was still discovered by someone. Although he had tried his best to hide it, he couldn¡¯t suppress it no matter how many people died.


    However, he was already certain that there were no experts above the Soul Altar realm on Penta-Poison Peak.


    No one here was his match.


    ¡°Soul power +1¡±


    ¡°Soul power +1¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Compared to the Gu Refinement Cave, the frequency of Soul Harvesting in Penta-Poison Peak was much higher, being triggered continuously.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power continued to increase, and even his entire Soul Altar began to transform.


    ¡®I¡¯ve broken through!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation base had broken through again! The enormous soul power caused his Soul Altar to complete its transformation.


    Moreover, this kind of breakthrough had no side effects at all.


    Compared to the Demon-Devouring Technique, it was much stronger.


    It was just that this speed was much slower than the Demon-Devouring Technique, which required continuous killing to collect souls.


    Zhou Feng stopped his movements and slightly restrained his Demonic Qi because his cultivation base had broken through.


    ¡°This kind of aura¡­ Has he broken through!? Breaking through in this kind of situation? Isn¡¯t this courting death!?¡±


    ¡°Attack!¡±


    The moment Zhou Feng broke through, the two Soul Altar cultivators hiding in the shadows immediately seized this opportunity.


    One had to know that breaking through in a battle was an extremely dangerous thing.


    This was because when breaking through, one needed to concentrate on calming the Spiritual Qi and the soul power in the body.


    There would be a period of emptiness for some time, and one could not use Spiritual Qi.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    Two strange Gus drilled out from the shadows like lightning.


    Two Soul Altar cultivators followed behind them.


    Zhou Feng, who was standing there blankly, was instantly bitten by the two Gus.


    The terrifying venom invaded Zhou Feng¡¯s body, followed by all kinds of arts bombarding him.


    At the same time, purple poisonous fog floated across the ground, and the ground instantly emitted a sizzling sound.


    ¡°Pu!¡±


    A mouthful of fresh blood immediately spurted out of Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth.


    The duo¡¯s sneak attacks were effective!


    Although Zhou Feng was very strong, it was impossible for him to stand there in a daze and receive a beating. It was impossible for him not to be injured.


    His Poison Immunity was activated!


    The venom that was sufficient to kill a Soul Altar cultivator instantly was expelled from his body.


    Then, the Demonic Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body surged into the sky like a huge wave, spreading out in all directions.


    Zhou Feng threw out a punch and created a sonic boom. It was accompanied by a huge amount of Demonic Qi and instantly blew up one of the ambushers.


    This was because the passive Injury Conversion had been triggered.


    All of his injuries had been turned into attack power. In addition, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation level was higher than this person¡¯s, so his strength was almost crushed.


    Therefore, the person in front of him was instantly blown up, and a large number of chunks of meat flew in all directions.


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    Soul Harvesting was triggered, and Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power increased once again.


    The other person was next. There was a trace of fear in his eyes.


    ¡°You! Aren¡¯t you afraid of the sect¡ª¡±


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s punch pulverized him before he could finish speaking.


    ¡°Quickly! Quickly notify the people from the other peaks! There¡¯s a madman here!¡±


    ¡°And the main peak! If we¡¯re late, we¡¯ll all die here!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The two deceased cultivators were already the Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s strongest combatants.


    The other elites had already left the sect with the Elders, so no one in the Penta-Poison Peak could suppress Zhou Feng.


    Therefore, they had to inform the other people of the sect to come over and assist them.


    It was unknown whether this person had cultivated to the point of going mad.


    He had actually gone mad here.


    ¡®Come over to support me! This way, I can increase the speed of my cultivation!¡¯ Zhou Feng could already feel that his injuries were recovering.


    From the results, his previous guess was correct.


    He could quickly increase his cultivation by directly starting a massacre and using the passive Soul Harvesting.


    Moreover, the speed of his cultivation increase was very fast.


    The only problem was that the risk of such a massacre was extremely high.


    If he weren¡¯t careful, he would die.


    But now, he couldn¡¯t care so much anymore.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that the Demon-Devouring Seal in his body began to move. He felt that Old Demon Gu was going to use the Demon-Devouring Technique on him.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to die. He still wanted to live.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng began to go crazy.


    On Penta-Poison Peak, many inner disciples arrived in an unending stream.


    Then, they took turns fighting against him, including many Soul Altar cultivators.


    All kinds of soul artifacts shone with light, and numerous attacks collided, creating all kinds of sparks.


    At a certain moment, Zhou Feng felt as if his body was about to be torn apart.


    Fortunately, the Purple Jade Bell displayed its power, barely keeping him alive.


    In addition, the people surrounding him were all cherishing their lives, so Zhou Feng was able to persevere.


    ¡°W-Who is this person? Why isn¡¯t he dead yet!?¡±


    ¡°Has this person gone mad?¡±


    ¡°What should we do?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    This was because when Zhou Feng saw anyone, he was willing to risk his life in exchange for injuries.


    This caused many people to start working without putting in any effort, which also gave him time to develop.


    People were constantly being killed, and the passive Soul Harvesting was constantly triggered.


    In addition, Zhou Feng had the passive Whetstone, which was a terrifying existence in terms of endurance.


    In the face of many people taking turns to fight, he still maintained sufficient physical strength and Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®Grade-2 Soul Altar!¡¯


    He had broken through! Zhou Feng had broken through in the middle of the battle!


    ¡°Diamond talisman!¡±


    At the moment of his breakthrough, Zhou Feng took a few diamond talismans out of his storage ring.


    A few rays of golden light enveloped him instantly..

 Chapter 127 - Cheating and Rising

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The rise in cultivation made Zhou Feng even more terrifying.


    This was because this power rise was not achieved through slow cultivation. Instead, it was the direct increase in soul power that affected the Soul Altar and caused it to begin to transform.


    Normally, an ordinary person would have to polish their Spiritual Qi slowly and convert the soul power.


    This was a process, and a short-term breakthrough like Zhou Feng¡¯s was extremely rare.


    At the same time, it also made Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar unstable.


    ¡°Another breakthrough? How is this possible!?¡±


    ¡°What kind of monster is this? Where¡¯s the Elder? What should we do now?¡±


    ¡°How would I know what to do?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng broke through again, which made most people present swallow their saliva.


    Where had this person come from? How did he manage to break through during battle!?


    Moreover, the strangest thing was that they had besieged him for such a long time.


    The more serious Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries were, the fiercer his counterattack was. Even after such a long time, there was not a trace of fatigue on Zhou Feng¡¯s face at all.


    Since the establishment of the Tri-Gu Sect, nothing like this had ever happened.


    Thus, many people did not know how to handle this matter.


    The inner sect did not have an Elder present, so the strongest were only at the Soul Altar realm.


    As they were all in the Soul Altar realm, they could not do anything to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Taking advantage of this gap, Zhou Feng immediately opened the skill panel and looked at the progress bar.


    He realized that the progress bar was full once again as his cultivation broke through.


    He immediately drew a new passive skill.


    At present, he needed a powerful passive skill to aid him in this difficult situation. Otherwise, he would probably be ground to death here.


    After all, with the passage of time, the other members of the Tri-Gu Sect would react.


    Taking advantage of the time the Tri-Gu Sect was empty, Zhou Feng planned to harvest more soul power quickly.


    He wanted to break through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm as soon as possible, and at that time, he would have the ability to save his life.


    Fast Healing: Your wounds and injuries recover faster and can be stacked with other passives.


    Was this a recovery-type passive skill?


    Fast Healing was similar to Unyielding Heart.


    The passive Unyielding Heart¡¯s effect was that the more severe the injury, the better the treatment.


    What caught Zhou Feng¡¯s attention the most was the description of this healing speed.


    That was, it could stack with other passive skills. Could it be that this would draw a similar passive effect?


    And if two passive skills could not stack with each other, only one could take effect?


    If that were really the case, this would have a huge impact on Zhou Feng¡¯s future plans.


    ¡®My wounds¡­¡¯


    After successfully drawing this passive skill, Zhou Feng instantly felt the changes in his body.


    The densely packed wounds on his body started to heal at the speed of the naked eye.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Self-Healing Constitution, Unyielding Heart, and Fast Healing gave him an effect similar to an immortal body.


    No matter what kind of injury it was, it could almost be healed at the speed of the naked eye.


    The most exaggerated thing was that even the internal injuries in his body were healing.


    When the three passive skills were stacked together, the effect was like a quantitative change that caused a qualitative change.


    However, at the same time, Zhou Feng felt that his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi were being consumed at a crazy rate.


    That¡¯s right!


    Such a terrifying recovery speed could not come out of nowhere.


    The price of such a recovery speed was that Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi were being consumed rapidly.


    Given the consumption rate, they would have been drained dry long ago if it were anyone else.


    However, this consumption was still acceptable for Zhou Feng.


    This was because his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi reserves were abnormally huge. He would use his Level-2 Gluttony to crazily devour many things, which were then converted into his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi.


    He also cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique and had devoured two people until now, which was equivalent to devouring their Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi. The price of this was that Zhou Feng¡¯s own Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi were polluted.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi far exceeded that of an ordinary person.


    However, his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi were extremely heterogeneous, and it could even be said that they were chaotic. This was a problem that urgently needed to be solved.


    Unexpectedly, this solution came at the right time. He could use this method to deplete the Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t my current body equivalent to an immortal body!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s battle style suddenly became unrestrained.


    He actually had such a terrifying recovery speed, and he even had a huge amount of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi as a foundation.


    His fighting style could be completely unrestrained.


    Exchange injuries for injuries? That was no longer enough!


    If he wanted to fight, he would directly fight with his life on the line!


    Zhou Feng also had a passive skill that turned injuries into attack power.


    Thus, in the eyes of the others, Zhou Feng was completely out of his mind.


    He had a death wish!


    No one wanted to trade lives with such a crazy person who didn¡¯t care about his own life. Even if they managed to kill Zhou Feng in the end, there wouldn¡¯t be any benefits.


    Instead, they would have to pay attention to whether or not such a crazy person would target them.


    This caused even more people to become timid.


    ¡°Run! Run quickly!¡±


    ¡°If this continues, we¡¯ll also be waiting for death! Let¡¯s retreat first!¡±


    ¡°When the Elders return, this person will definitely not survive. It is meaningless for us to throw our lives away here!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing the injury-riddled Zhou Feng kill another Soul Altar cultivator, some people were already beginning to quiver.


    Even a Soul Altar cultivator was killed like this. These small fries below the Soul Altar realm could not help at all. If they continued to stay here, they would only be sending themselves to their deaths!


    In any case, Zhou Feng would not be able to escape. As long as they waited for the Elders to come, suppressing Zhou Feng would be a matter of one hand.


    Soon, the number of people surrounding Zhou Feng decreased.


    The pressure he was under also began to weaken.


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    The passive Soul Harvesting was constantly triggered, and Zhou Feng¡¯s Spiritual Qi also increased by leaps and bounds.


    This was the feeling of cheating!


    As his soul power grew stronger, a tiny person began to grow on Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar.


    This tiny person was the embryonic form of his soul. As long as he could condense a soul successfully, it meant that he would directly enter the Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡®It¡¯s about time! I can¡¯t stay here any longer!¡¯


    After battling for a period, Zhou Feng felt it was about time. His Soul Altar realm was already filled with the power of his divine soul.


    As long as he wanted to, he could immediately forge his Grade-1 Soul Altar.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s goal had almost been achieved, so he needed to avoid the sharp edge for now.


    He needed to stabilize his strength and get rid of the hidden dangers on his body.


    Moreover, he was worried that the Tri-Gu experts would arrive if he continued like this. He might not be able to escape.


    Thus, Zhou Feng suddenly stopped and went into the deep mountains.


    The speed of this change of events caused many people to be stunned.


    He looked like he was going crazy, but why did he suddenly escape!?

 Chapter 128 - Killing Zhou Feng

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°This, this, this¡­¡±


    ¡°He escaped? He actually escaped?¡±


    ¡°Hurry up and set up the great formation! We can¡¯t let this person escape!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After being stunned for a few seconds, the remaining Penta-Poison disciples shouted at the top of their lungs.


    What was this? He had just randomly killed people here at Penta-Poison Peak for no reason.


    Everyone thought that Zhou Feng was a madman who had gone mad, but suddenly, Zhou Feng stopped and escaped.


    This clearly didn¡¯t look like a madman.


    Then why did this person do this?


    Killing people so casually not only didn¡¯t do him any good, but he definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to escape the sect¡¯s punishment in the end.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions already counted as betraying the sect.


    ¡°Quickly, quickly!¡±


    ¡°That person actually took the initiative to escape! This means that he can¡¯t hold on any longer!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The remaining Tri-Gu disciples were thrown into chaos.


    Some people only remembered the sect¡¯s grand formation at this time. As long as the sect¡¯s grand formation was raised, Zhou Feng would definitely not be able to escape.


    Some people speculated that Zhou Feng was probably exhausted and was on his last legs.


    If they could capture Zhou Feng alive, it would be a great merit.


    Everyone had their own thoughts, but one thing was certain.


    Today¡¯s incident was probably the worst disciple-betrayal incident since the Tri-Gu Sect was established.


    ¡­


    After Zhou Feng entered the forest, he relied on his passive Nature Affinity. He was like a fish entering the sea and a tiger entering the forest. He did not meet any obstruction and used the dense forest to hide.


    He did not go too deep. Instead, he found a hidden location and prepared to go into seclusion for a period.


    Putting everything else aside, Zhou Feng planned to break through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm directly.


    After becoming a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator and beginning to condense the embryonic form of his soul, he planned to get rid of the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body.


    Actually, what he had done previously was to get rid of the Demon-Devouring Seal on his body.


    As long as this seal was not removed, it would be a threat to his life.


    Only by getting rid of this Demon-Devouring Seal would he have the confidence to betray the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡®I have to break through properly this time! The previous two breakthroughs were too rushed!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sat cross-legged on the ground and planned to break through slowly this time.


    The previous two breakthroughs had been in the midst of battle, so he did not have the time to consolidate his power.


    Logically speaking, this would leave behind quite a few hidden dangers. Thus, he planned to break through this time slowly.


    He did not care about anything else.


    At present, Zhou Feng was wholeheartedly focused on breaking through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm.


    Meanwhile, he had caused great waves, and the sect was restless.


    If one were to use four words to describe what Zhou Feng had done¡­


    Then these three words were¡­ ¡°Piercing through the heavens!¡±


    That¡¯s right! It was to pierce through the heavens! A madman had directly killed almost all the disciples on Penta-Poison Peak!


    Everyone in the Gu Refinement Cave, including the Meat Gu, was gone as well.


    After a simple calculation¡­ more than 10 Soul Altar disciples and countless disciples below the Qi Condensation realm had died.


    They had not ever suffered such losses while fighting against the White Bone Temple and the Penta-Ghosts Sect.


    All the Tri-Gu disciples now knew the identity and origin of Zhou Feng.


    After learning about Zhou Feng and his feats, many people cried out exaggeratedly.


    Zhou Feng had only spent less than half a year from the official start of cultivation to the Soul Altar realm.


    Even if he cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, such a speed of advancement was too abnormal.


    Monster! This was definitely a monster!


    Why would such a monster betray the sect? Even if such a monster did not have a backer behind him, many factions should be willing to rope him in. Why would he take revenge on the sect like this?


    Following that, some people leaked confidential information, and the news began to spread within the inner sect.


    The main conjecture was that some elite disciples had suppressed zhou Feng. In the end, he had no choice but to fight to the death.


    And the source of this news was the sect¡¯s blessed land!


    Gong Jiu had never thought that Zhou Feng would betray the sect and create such a big incident.


    Most importantly, Gong Jiu had previously used a lot of evidence to confirm that Zhou Feng had betrayed the sect.


    As such, many people misinterpreted this as Gong Jiu forcing and bullying Zhou Feng.


    Such a monster! He had actually betrayed the sect because of Gong Jiu.


    This caused the sect to lose a prodigy and indirectly led to the death of many inner disciples.


    The sect would investigate everything after suffering such losses. In the end, Gong Jiu would even be made the scapegoat.


    ¡°Impossible! How dare he¡­ How dare he do this!?¡±


    Gong Jiu¡¯s face was flushed, and he looked like he was gnashing his teeth.


    Gong Jiu had been under the impression he didn¡¯t need to make a move. He would only need to move a finger, and Zhou Feng would be toyed with.


    Looking at it now, he was simply a clown.


    To be honest, Gong Jiu did not expect Zhou Feng to be so ruthless. Even if he had to die, he would drag him down with him.


    At present, his competitors were making a big fuss about this matter.


    In reality, however, Zhou Feng did not know that Gong Jiu had deliberately targeted him after leaving the blessed land.


    To Zhou Feng, leaving the blessed land and attacking Penta-Poison Peak was part of his plan to trigger the passive Soul Harvesting, increase his soul power, and then escape from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    But now, everyone believed that Zhou Feng had made a move on Penta-Poison Peak and the Gu Refinement Cave out of despair.


    It was all because of Gong Jiu¡¯s evil move that a genius cultivator was forced into a dead end.


    There were even a lot of people who sympathized with Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng probably never imagined that many people would sympathize with him after slaughtering so many disciples. Some people even thought that Zhou Feng¡¯s talent did not bloom earlier because of his background.


    This was really magical.


    ¡°Kill him! I have to kill Zhou Feng before the sect catches him!¡±


    Gong Jiu knew very well that a dead person was of no value to the sect.


    As long as he killed Zhou Feng before the sect caught him, then everything could be reversed.


    The choice between a dead person and a candidate like Gong Jiu for the Sect Leader position was self-evident to the higher-ups. After all, no one would argue over a dead person, especially in a sect like the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡°I can only use the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror!¡±


    Gong Jiu took out a mirror.


    If he wanted to kill Zhou Feng before the sect caught him, he had to find Zhou Feng before the sect did.


    And to do this, Gong Jiu felt that there was no other way except to rely on the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror.


    This was a one-time use spiritual weapon!


    Now it was going to be wasted like this!


    At that moment, Gong Jiu¡¯s heart felt as if a knife had cut it, and his heart kept bleeding..

 Chapter 129 - Passive Defensive Skill

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Actually, in his heart, Gong Jiu was extremely unwilling to use the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror as it was one of his trump cards. Central Plains¡¯ Artifact Refiners could only refine it.


    Gong Jiu had put in a lot of effort in order to obtain this Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror.


    He had schemed against more than 10 people consecutively before finally snatching the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror.


    It only had one function, divining heaven¡¯s secrets. As long as it didn¡¯t divine people and objects above the Soul Altar realm, the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror could directly reflect it.


    For example, one could directly rely on the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror to divine people, spirit herbs, spirit ores, and so on.


    Although this didn¡¯t sound very useful, this kind of special spiritual artifact could play a big role as long as it was used at the right time.


    Gong Jiu wasted such a special spiritual artifact so decisively was largely because the battle over the Sect Leader position had already reached the climax.


    Now, his competitors seized this sore spot and scolded him for being narrow-minded and not allowing the sect¡¯s geniuses to develop.


    This caused his reputation to drop a lot overnight.


    If it were any other time, Gong Jiu wouldn¡¯t care about any reputation at all.


    However, such a thing happened during the selection of the next Sect Leader.


    If he didn¡¯t calm down quickly, he might really lose the Sect Leader position in the end because of this matter.


    ¡®Moreover, Zhou Feng must have a secret. He climbed to this level in just half a year after all!


    ¡®Even if he doesn¡¯t have a secret, he still has the inheritance of Pill Master Yuan on him. He can be considered to have recovered some of his losses!¡¯


    Gong Jiu frowned and bit his middle finger, using the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror to calculate where Zhou Feng was now.


    It had to be said that Gong Jiu was a ruthless person. He had actually made a decision in such a short time. Even if the price was a rare spiritual artifact, he still had to kill Zhou Feng and prevent any danger from appearing.


    He looked at the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror. It looked a little simple, and its surface was extremely blurry, but it began to change.


    Strands of strange power began to twist, and invisible lines of karma connected together.


    Then, the blurry mirror began to become clear.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s figure began to appear.


    ¡°Take the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror! Kill this person!¡±


    Gong Jiu didn¡¯t plan to do it himself. Many people were watching his every move, so others would misinterpret any movement he made as something else.


    Thus, he had his own Dao Protector kill Zhou Feng.


    A genius like Gong Jiu naturally had a few loyal Dao Protectors.


    ¡°Yes, sir!¡±


    Gong Wen lowered his head and held the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror with both hands.


    Gong Wen was a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator and one of Gong Jiu¡¯s two Dao Protectors. He had used some evil techniques when he broke through, so he would never break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Even so, Gong Wen did not need to spend much time to finish off Zhou Feng.


    Gong Wen was a true veteran Soul Altar expert. There was only one soul artifact stored in the Soul Altar realm.


    This soul artifact had been stored for a full 50 years, and Gong Wen had never used it before. He did not expect to have the opportunity to show off today finally.


    Apart from that, Gong Wen also had decades of combat experience. Facing a fledgling like Zhou Feng, who had just broken through to the Soul Altar realm not long ago, was nothing.


    He didn¡¯t know how much more experienced and shrewd he was, but Zhou Feng¡¯s advancement speed was simply too fast.


    He simply didn¡¯t have that much time to immerse himself in the same realm and slowly explore and polish it.


    Once he encountered an experienced and shrewd opponent, Zhou Feng would definitely suffer a great loss.


    In a cave¡­


    Zhou Feng had already completed his breakthrough and forged his Grade-1 Soul Altar!


    A nascent soul was already sitting in the middle of the Soul Altar, and even the Purple Jade Bell had completed its metamorphosis.


    When he broke through, he vaguely felt the laws between heaven and earth.


    It was an extremely mysterious feeling. In that instant, Zhou Feng felt as if he had experienced what it felt like to be an immortal.


    It was a pity that he couldn¡¯t sense the power contained in his own bloodline.


    Normally, the nascent soul would appear after breaking through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm.


    By relying on the initial appearance of the soul, one would be able to sense the power contained within one¡¯s own bloodline and thus be able to understand the divine ability one would awaken in the future.


    As mentioned in the past, the most important thing for breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm was to awaken one¡¯s divine ability.


    However, Zhou Feng discovered that there was almost no power within his own bloodline.


    In layman¡¯s terms, his aptitude was the lowest.


    The Grade-1 Soul Altar was already his limit. If he took another step forward now, he would have to rely on other fortuitous encounters.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng was still able to accept it.


    In any case, he had long known that his aptitude for cultivation was not very good and was able to reach this level.


    He relied on passive skills that were as high as double digits to reach this level.


    ¡®Has the Purple Jade Bell already transformed into a spiritual artifact?¡¯


    Compared to his own aptitude, Zhou Feng was more concerned about whether the Purple Jade Bell had transformed into a spiritual weapon.


    Previously, the Purple Jade Bell had been accompanied by several breakthroughs. All of them had the vague intention of transforming, but this step from a soul weapon to a spiritual weapon was challenging.


    Therefore, the Purple Jade Bell had always been in the process of transforming.


    Now, the Purple Jade Bell had completely restrained the treasure light that leaked out.


    The first time Zhou Feng looked at the Purple Jade Bell, he knew that it was a treasure.


    That crystal clear purple jade material, coupled with the faintly emitting treasure light, was really too dazzling.


    But now, the Purple Jade Bell was like an ordinary small bell.


    Ordinary and simple.


    Zhou Feng tried to inject a trace of Demonic Qi into the Purple Jade Bell, and instantly, purple light filled the sky.


    Seeing this, he immediately stopped. Now, he was sure that the Purple Jade Bell had already transformed into a true spiritual artifact.


    This kind of terrifying aura was simply several times more terrifying than before.


    His cultivation had broken through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm, and the Purple Jade Bell had also transformed into a spiritual artifact.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength soared once again.


    ¡®Then next, I still have to draw passive skills!¡¯


    Since his cultivation had broken through once again, Zhou Feng took a look at the skill panel.


    As expected, just like the previous times, the progress bar on the skill panel was automatically filled up.


    This meant that he would automatically have an additional passive skill every time he broke through in the future.


    This more or less had the meaning of a guarantee. As long as he broke through to a new realm, he would be able to draw new passive skills.


    Zhou Feng felt he would have countless passive skills in the future.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    What followed was the familiar drawing process.


    Not long after, a new passive skill appeared in front of him.


    Reinforced Iron Bones: Your muscles and bones are like steel being poured over them. Your Defense will permanently increase by 10%.


    ¡®Another passive defensive skill? How many passive defensive skills is this already?¡¯


    And if he remembered correctly, the first few passive skills that were drawn seemed to favor defense and life preservation.


    And now another one?


    ¡®Reinforced Iron Bones? Wait¡­ Why are my bones¡ª¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt all the bones in his body become painful and itchy, as if thousands of ants were constantly gnawing at his bones..

 Chapter 130 - An Unexpected Sneak Attack

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The bone-eating pain came and went quickly.


    Zhou Feng felt that his body seemed to have become heavier.


    Correspondingly, his defense and defensive abilities seemed to have been greatly enhanced.


    ¡®Did my bones really change?¡¯


    A look of disbelief appeared on his face.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng experienced a pleasant surprise. The original bone gangrene-like Demon-Devouring Seal couldn¡¯t attach to his bones like before.


    Old Demon Gu had left the Demon-Devouring Seal in Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and it had been moving all over his body like a clump of mud.


    He had found the seal¡¯s location deep in his bones thanks to his excellent senses, but he was unable to remove it.


    The Demon-Devouring Seal had penetrated deep into his bone marrow, so he would have to smash all the bones in his body and throw them away if he wanted to remove it.


    ¡®To think that it still has such an effect!¡¯


    To be honest, Zhou Feng had never thought that his passive Reinforced Iron Bones would actually have such an effect.


    His luck was too good!


    Ever since he had started massacring others, good things had been coming wave after wave.


    His cultivation base had broken through, and the Purple Jade Bell had become a spiritual artifact. Now, it seemed that the huge hidden danger of the Demon-Devouring Seal could also be removed.


    Zhou Feng already felt that it was somewhat unreal. The experiences during this period made him feel like he was a Son of Providence.


    ¡®Next, I just need to expel this Demon-Devouring Seal out of my body slowly!¡¯


    After breaking through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm, an illusory spirit had formed in the Soul Altar, guarding it.


    At present, the Demon-Devouring Seal that couldn¡¯t be attached to the bones was no longer of any concern to Zhou Feng.


    The only troublesome thing was that Old Demon Gu would definitely sense it once he removed the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    At that time, he would have to face the pressure of a Purple Mansion expert directly.


    ¡®Old Demon Gu¡­¡¯


    Although a Purple Mansion expert was very frightening, this still wouldn¡¯t be able to stop Zhou Feng¡¯s actions.


    As long as this Demon-Devouring Seal wasn¡¯t removed, he wouldn¡¯t be able to sleep or eat in peace.


    As such, Zhou Feng circulated the Demonic Qi in his entire body and began to remove the Demon-Devouring Seal forcibly.


    Forcibly removing it like this was actually quite a heavy burden on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Injuries were unavoidable, but he didn¡¯t really care if he was injured or not.


    In any case, he had many life-saving passive skills, so he didn¡¯t really care about this little bit of injury.


    Self-Healing Constitution, Unyielding Heart, and Fast Healing¡ªthese three passive skills were stacked together, so Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries recovered swiftly.


    There was the defense provided by Old Skin and Reinforced Iron Bones, as well as the damage-reducing Tough Skin.


    These passive skills could all reduce the serious consequences of removing the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    If other normal cultivators didn¡¯t have Zhou Feng¡¯s passive protection, they would have lost half of their lives.


    Just trying to remove the Demon-Devouring Seal was enough to take half of one¡¯s life.


    Old Demon Gu probably did not expect such a freak to be able to break his Demon-Devouring Seal.


    ¡®Come out!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression hardened, and a small wound appeared on his chest.


    A stream of fresh blood along with a ball of strange black energy shot out.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face instantly turned pale.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    When Zhou Feng was extremely weak and had no ability to resist, a stream of Sword Qi broke through the thick layer of rock.


    A cold ¡®Diel¡¯ was transmitted into his ears.


    Someone had ambushed him! Moreover, it was at such a timely moment.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s pupils constricted slightly.


    ¡®How is this possible!? Why did someone manage to find me? Did they have to ambush me now!?¡¯


    Impossible!


    Given his perception, as long as someone was close to him, he would be able to sense it immediately.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had set up many warning formations nearby.


    Why was this person able to bypass his perception and warning formations and ambush him!?


    Zhou Feng had just forcefully removed the Demon-Devouring Seal from his body, so his body was unable to move. Thus, he could only watch helplessly as a short sword stabbed into his heart.


    The next second, the sound of metal colliding rang out.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Gu!¡± roared Zhou Feng.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu that had been lurking in his body exploded with power!


    Violent Demonic Qi gushed out, using this force to pull back Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    When Gong Wen saw this scene, his emotionless face immediately moved slightly.


    That¡¯s right! The person who tried to assassinate Zhou Feng was Gong Wen.


    In fact, Gong Wen had been lurking nearby for a long time.


    Relying on the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror, Gong Wen had quickly found Zhou Feng¡¯s location.


    However, Gong Wen didn¡¯t make a move immediately. Instead, he was like a patient hunter waiting for the best opportunity.


    He had to ensure that Zhou Feng would die in one strike.


    To be honest, when Gong Wen relied on the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror to find Zhou Feng, he was completely frightened by Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng was a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator now!


    He exuded this aura of a Grade-1 Soul Altar expert, and the embryonic form of the nascent soul had already appeared.


    This was a realm that Gong Wen had fought his entire life to reach.


    Now, Zhou Feng had actually reached it? It was also said that Zhou Feng had cultivated for less than half a year.


    What kind of monster was this? What kind of genius was this?


    What made Gong Wen most fearful was that Zhou Feng was actually trying to remove the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    As Gong Jiu¡¯s Dao Protector, Gong Wen was naturally very familiar with Old Demon Gu.


    The Demon-Devouring Seal was Old Demon Gu¡¯s unique skill. Once he branded someone, no one could escape from Old Demon Gu¡¯s palm.


    Those who wanted to remove the Demon-Devouring Seal would all succumb to the backlash without exception and die.


    But Zhou Feng seemed to have succeeded!


    No one knew what method Zhou Feng used, but he was actually able to withstand the backlash from removing the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    After seeing this, Gong Wen couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer. He had to finish off Zhou Feng.


    Thus, the sneak attack just now.


    As for why Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t sense Gong Wen¡¯s presence, it was naturally because of the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror¡¯s existence.


    Besides being able to find Zhou Feng¡¯s specific location, the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror also had the function of concealing one¡¯s aura.


    Even though it could only be used once, this was still a spiritual artifact.


    Originally, Gong Wen thought that his attack was perfect.


    Zhou Feng was completely unable to resist his sword, and the final result was a stand of Sword Qi piercing through his heart.


    However, an accident still happened. Gong Wen¡¯s Netherworld Thorn, which had been nurtured for decades, actually did not pierce through Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Instead, it seemed to have pierced through a piece of fine iron.


    Zhou Feng even pulled away from it.


    At that critical moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s body could not move, but the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body could.


    The benefits of refining Vital Gu were fully displayed at this moment.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng had just retreated. When the backlash from removing the Demon-Devouring Seal was suppressed, he immediately charged forward. He did not seem to care about his injuries at all, looking just like a madman.


    Gong Wen, who was greatly shocked, did not continue chasing after him.


    Instead, he lightly retreated. His expression was eerily calm. Other than the slight fluctuation in his eyes just now, there was no other change.


    However, in the next second, Gong Wen could no longer maintain such a calm expression.


    Because Zhou Feng directly suppressed Gong Wen with the Purple Jade Bell! The Purple Jade Bell was a genuine spiritual artifact now!

 Chapter 131 - Meeting Again

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Spiritual artifact! Is this a spiritual artifact!?¡±


    Gong Wen¡¯s voice couldn¡¯t help but become high-pitched after feeling the pressure that belonged solely to spiritual artifacts.


    A terrifying pressure seemed to directly bring about heaven and earth¡¯s power.


    This kind of pressure that seemed to descend from heaven and earth could only be unleashed by a spiritual artifact.


    Why were spiritual artifacts so rare? This was because spiritual artifacts represented a certain level of law.


    Once activated, they could directly trigger the power of heaven and earth.


    Just like Zhou Feng activating the Purple Jade Bell, the invisible suppressive force was like the waves of the ocean, boundless.


    Gong Wen was unable to move under this suppressive force.


    A terrifying bell sound echoed in Gong Wen¡¯s ears. The vibration of space caused pain and agony to Gong Wen.


    ¡°Y-You¡­¡±


    At that moment, Gong Wen felt as if his body had been completely crushed.


    His bones had almost completely shattered, and he didn¡¯t have the chance to use any life-saving treasures.


    Even the Heaven¡¯s Secret Mirror in his arms couldn¡¯t resist this power and shattered.


    This was a true monster! A true monster!


    He was actually able to gain the favor of a spiritual weapon! He could even activate the spiritual weapon, causing it to unleash its full power.


    ¡®A huge threat! This is definitely a huge threat to the Young Master!¡¯


    Various emotions continuously surfaced on Gong Wen¡¯s face.


    He regretted it!


    When he had ambushed Zhou Feng, it should have been the time when he had the greatest chance.


    Unfortunately, Gong Wen hadn¡¯t grasped it well. That seemingly fatal blow had only caused Zhou Feng to suffer some injuries.


    He should have exchanged his life for Zhou Feng¡¯s, preventing Zhou Feng from having the chance to use this spiritual artifact.


    But it was all too late. Who would have thought that Zhou Feng possessed a spiritual artifact?


    As long as Zhou Feng wanted to escape with the spiritual artifact¡¯s assistance, not many people in the sect would be able to stop him.


    Unless the Elders and Sect Leader made a move.


    Unfortunately, the Elders weren¡¯t in the sect.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t give Gong Wen the slightest chance to struggle. All the Demonic Qi in his body crazily poured into the Purple Jade Bell.


    The Purple Jade Bell was no different than a vampire now that it had transformed. Even though Zhou Feng had used all his strength to bleed from his seven orifices, he still could not unleash its full power.


    Even so, Gong Wen was crushed into a pile of meat paste.


    The cracking sound of bones breaking echoed continuously.


    ¡®I have to leave quickly!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was pale at this time, and it had become a lot thinner.


    To be honest, activating the Purple Jade Bell required too much Spiritual Qi or Demonic Qi.


    His Spiritual Qi reserves were vast, yet he was almost sucked dry after using it for a short while.


    Fortunately, the endurance provided by the passive Whetstone was working. His Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi were recovering.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu was also trying its best to absorb the wandering Spiritual Qi in the world to help him recover quickly.


    He could now clearly feel a group of people rushing toward him.


    The huge commotion had alarmed the people of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    It was different from before.


    At present, the Tri-Gu Sect had specially formed small teams.


    A Soul Altar cultivator led each team, and the team members were all old disciples.


    Their battle experience was rich, and they cooperated smoothly.


    Although Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t afraid of encountering such a small team, he would definitely be delayed.


    And once he was delayed, what would greet him would be a sea of people.


    Therefore, he didn¡¯t even touch the corpse and fled the scene.


    Anyway, relying on his abnormally strong senses, Zhou Feng had no problem playing hide-and-seek with these people.


    Not to mention that he had a passive Nature Affinity. In the mountain forest, he automatically had a layer of protection.


    Zhou Feng had just left when a large group of Tri-Gu disciples rushed to the battle¡¯s location.


    ¡°What¡­ What kind of battle happened?¡±


    ¡°This¡­ Did a Purple Mansion Elder make a move?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When these people saw the scene in front of them, they were shocked. It was a jaw-dropping sight¡ªthe originally dense mountain forest had become flat ground.


    Everything around them seemed to have been flattened by a large hand. There was even a pile of meat paste in the middle.


    Was this something that a Soul Altar cultivator could perform?


    After that, these people confirmed who that pile of meat paste was.


    ¡°This is Gong Wen, a Grade-1 Soul Altar Dao Protector! And¡­¡±


    ¡°Since Gong Jiu is involved and many people are present, issue a gag order!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    In the end, most people only learned that Zhou Feng had once again fought and smashed a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator into minced meat.


    When this piece of news was released, Zhou Feng¡¯s reputation in the sect became even more terrifying.


    For a time, it was unknown how many people didn¡¯t put in any effort and only wanted to wait for the Elders to return.


    They would let the Elders deal with Zhou Feng.


    Naturally, the news of Gong Wen¡¯s death also spread to the blessed land.


    ¡°I underestimated this person!¡±


    Gong Wen¡¯s death infuriated Gong Jiu, and an icy cold aura spread all over his body.


    A one-time use spiritual artifact from a side sect and a Grade-1 Soul Altar Dao Protector, such a loss was really too heavy.


    ¡°Is this a variable? Is this the will of the heavens?¡±


    Gong Jiu thought that he had already investigated Zhou Feng to a great extent. To think that such a bumpkin who had risen from the grass was actually so powerful.


    He had thought highly of Zhou Feng before, but he had underestimated Zhou Feng in reality.


    Now, everyone in the blessed land knew about this matter.


    His competitors were now waiting for him to make his next move and see how he would deal with this matter.


    If he didn¡¯t handle it well, the Sect Leader¡¯s position might not be possible anymore!


    ¡°It¡¯s actually like this! Then I¡¯ll make my move personally!¡±


    Gong Jiu¡¯s face was filled with killing intent. If he could calm this matter down, he would have to do it himself.


    By killing Zhou Feng, not only would he be able to recover his lost reputation but also raise it to another level.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng wandered around like a ghost in the silent forest.


    Suddenly, he felt a familiar aura.


    ¡®This cold feeling¡­¡¯


    This time, Zhou Feng did not leave early. Instead, he stood quietly on the spot.


    After a dozen breaths, a graceful figure slowly floated in front of Zhou Feng.


    Leng Maner!


    That¡¯s right! This person was Leng Maner, who had let him enter the blessed land.


    After not seeing her for a while, Leng Maner was still dressed in white. A jade belt was tied around her waist, showing off her slender and graceful figure.


    That cold temperament always gave people a sense of being nonchalant.


    ¡®Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm¡­¡¯


    After Leng Maner felt Zhou Feng¡¯s current cultivation, her expression changed slightly, as if she was a little surprised.


    It seemed that the last time she had seen Zhou Feng, he was only a Grade-9 or Grade-8 Soul Altar cultivator.


    At that time, the strength of the two sides was not on the same level at all.


    Leng Maner felt that she could directly crush Zhou Feng with one finger at that time.


    But when they met again, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation had already risen to the Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm.


    At the same time, Leng Maner felt a sense of threat. If it weren¡¯t for the fact that Leng Maner was used to being cold and aloof on a daily basis, she would probably have revealed a surprised expression due to his growth rate..

 Chapter 132 - Be My Husband

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Zhou Feng looked at Leng Maner again, he was no longer as reserved as he had been the first time.


    The difference in strength between the two sides was very close, after all.


    Leng Maner was also a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    However, Leng Maner appeared even purer compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s chaotic aura.


    How should I put it!


    Leng Maner gave people a feeling that she was ethereal and her body was flawless.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was extremely chaotic.


    Zhou Feng had not noticed it before meeting Leng Maner, but now that he compared it, he felt like he was in the presence of a disciplined army.


    Zhou Feng remained silent for a while before asking Leng Maner, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    From the looks of it, Leng Maner would not speak on her own. Since that was the case, he could only take the initiative to speak.


    Leng Maner expressionlessly said something that astounded him.


    ¡°How about becoming my husband?¡±


    Zhou Feng was slightly stunned but decisively rejected, ¡°Husband? Impossible!¡±


    ¡°As long as you become my husband, the previous charges on you can be written off. At the same time, you¡¯ll be the next Sect Leader of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡°As for being my husband, it¡¯s just a title.¡±


    Leng Maner did not seem surprised that he would refuse. She just stated the latter conditions even more calmly.


    ¡°You don¡¯t even have to worry about the Grand Elder finding trouble with you.¡±


    Finally, Leng Maner proposed a condition that somewhat moved him.


    She would help him withstand the pressure from Old Demon Gu.


    The first few conditions had not moved Zhou Feng at all.


    Becoming Leng Maner¡¯s husband? This sounded very beautiful. After all, such a beauty was the daughter of the Sect Leader.


    Although he would be her nominal husband, he would get the moon as long as he had that title. He might even be able to get the beauty later.


    And then the next Sect Leader of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    This sounded very tempting.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng knew that all of this was an illusion.


    Only his own strength was eternal.


    Evidently, Leng Maner had come to Zhou Feng to find a shield.


    Zhou Feng had learned some things in the blessed land regarding the Sect Leader position.


    In any case, the other two factions absolutely would not allow the Ice Spirit faction to continue occupying the Sect Leader position.


    Coincidentally, at this time, Zhou Feng had suddenly risen.


    Not only was he a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator, but he even killed many Soul Altar cultivators one after the other.


    This proved his formidable battle prowess.


    One must know that the Soul Altar cultivators that Zhou Feng killed before were mostly from the Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction.


    In other words, he had already offended the other two factions and just so happened to have the capital to cooperate with the Ice Spirit faction.


    All these factors combined allowed Leng Maner to find Zhou Feng.


    And the premise of all this was that Zhou Feng was strong enough.


    If he didn¡¯t have enough strength, he probably wouldn¡¯t even have the qualifications to be a shield.


    Zhou Feng frowned. ¡°Can you really guarantee that Old Demon Gu won¡¯t find trouble with me?¡±


    He didn¡¯t care about the other conditions, but it was important that Old Demon Gu didn¡¯t take revenge on him.


    Now that the Demon-Devouring Seal in his body had been forcibly removed, Old Demon Gu should have sensed it.


    To be honest, the pressure of a Zifu realm expert was still a bit too great.


    If Leng Maner could help him resist the pressure from Old Demon Gu, then it wouldn¡¯t be impossible to consider becoming her nominal husband.


    ¡°I can guarantee it.¡±


    As soon as Leng Maner opened her mouth, Zhou Feng immediately retorted, ¡°How can you guarantee it? With just your mouth?¡±


    Such empty promises didn¡¯t have any sincerity at all.


    ¡®Just because you are the daughter of the Sect Leader? A mere Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator dares to guarantee that I can withstand Old Demon Gu¡¯s pressure?¡¯


    Leng Maner fell silent upon hearing his retort.


    An extremely cold aura slowly rose up.


    ¡°You just have to become my husband!¡± Leng Maner said word by word.


    Leng Maner did not have the intention to continue negotiating with Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s response was even more direct. His Spiritual Qi turned into Demonic Qi, and Demonic Qi surged wildly.


    The demonic avatars behind him appeared one after another, and countless tentacles rose up.


    Qian You¡¯s eyes were cold!


    Leng Maner¡¯s eyes turned ice-blue.


    Relying on Qian You¡¯s cold eyes, she instantly saw through all the flaws that Zhou Feng had exposed.


    Then, her slender jade hand moved forward slightly.


    The extremely cold aura broke through the wild Demonic Qi.


    Leng Maner was like a fairy from the nine heavens. Her body was extremely elegant, and she looked carefree.


    However, in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, she appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.


    Her speed was so fast that even his eyes could not react in time.


    In the end, Zhou Feng relied on his Battle Instinct to be on the passive side and narrowly avoided Leng Maner¡¯s attack that did not contain any smoke and fire.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Leng Maner did not say anything, but it seemed that she was very surprised that Zhou Feng was able to dodge this attack from her expression.


    Immediately after, Leng Maner turned around slightly, and her three thousand black strands of hair fluttered in the wind.


    A faint fragrance assailed her face, and cold ice flowers slowly descended from the sky.


    It was exactly the same as the people that Zhou Feng had met previously.


    Leng Maner¡¯s battle style was elegant, but its attack was dangerous. The ice flowers that descended from the sky fell to the ground and instantly condensed into ice blocks.


    If they landed on a person¡¯s body, they would probably turn them into an ice sculpture in an instant.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth was tightly shut. Suddenly, he did not dodge and just stood on the spot.


    He allowed the ice flowers to land on his body.


    The moment the ice flowers landed on his body, Zhou Feng¡¯s body turned into a block of ice.


    At the same time, Leng Maner attacked.


    Her jade-like fingers tapped slightly, and a bloody hole appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s chest.


    The splattered blood did not splash onto Leng Maner.


    The bright red blood was paired with a beautiful expressionless fairy, and countless ice flowers were falling behind her.


    Such a scene was enough to make people indulge in it.


    It was clearly a dangerous battle, but it looked like a scene out of a painting.


    In the next second, Zhou Feng destroyed this beautiful composition.


    He completely ignored the pain and rushed in front of Leng Maner.


    There was no strategy!


    Zhou Feng once again used the desperate fighting style of exchanging injuries for injuries. The defensive passive skills he had gave him enough confidence to do so.


    The injury on his chest just now seemed very serious.


    But in reality, it was only a superficial injury. In less than a second, the wound had already healed.


    What a joke! He was now a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    Moreover, with the support of Old Skin, Tough Skin, and Reinforced Iron Bones, the strength of his physical body had already reached a terrifying degree.


    As expected, when facing Zhou Feng¡¯s desperate fighting style, Leng Maner¡¯s rhythm was disrupted.


    Zhou Feng allowed his opponent to hit him ten times to hit his opponent once.


    This,


    No matter how strong Leng Maner was, she was only a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator. This kind of desperate fighting style brought her a headache.


    In terms of strength, she could not suppress Zhou Feng at all, so Leng Maner began to lose her composure..

 Chapter 133 - The Method to Break Through to the Purple Mansion Realm

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Leng Maner had never experienced such a hooligan style of battle.


    The first step was to exchange injuries for injuries. If you weren¡¯t careful, you would be injured.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was too tough. Normal attacks wouldn¡¯t be able to break through his defense, and his injuries were recovering at an abnormal rate.


    This made Leng Maner feel that it was extremely troublesome.


    At present, both sides were only probing and did not really fight.


    This was because both sides did not use any spiritual weapons or other offensive methods.


    To be honest, Leng Maner had already acknowledged the strength that Zhou Feng displayed.


    This kind of strength was no longer something that could be easily manipulated.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng¡¯s growth speed was too strange.


    Even with the Demon-Devouring Technique, this kind of growth rate was abnormal.


    Even Old Demon Gu wasn¡¯t as ridiculous as Zhou Feng was now.


    It didn¡¯t take him long to break through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm.


    And his actual combat strength wasn¡¯t weak either.


    ¡°Stop!¡±


    After thinking for a while, Leng Maner chose to stop. If they continued to fight like this, it would be a lose-lose situation, so there was no need for such a fight.


    Zhou Feng did not want to continue fighting either.


    During the short exchange, he also felt that Leng Maner was difficult to deal with.


    He had been unable to touch Leng Maner. That strange and beautiful woman could predict his movements every time.


    If it were not for his injury-for-injury fighting style, he would not even be able to force Leng Maner back.


    ¡®Is this the gap between a prodigy and me?¡¯


    Compared to Zhou Feng, who had cultivated through unorthodox methods, Leng Maner had undoubtedly cultivated step by step.


    In particular, Leng Maner was also a cultivation genius. The gap between the two sides had been completely compared in the short exchange just now.


    However, Zhou Feng was still very cautious.


    Although he had been at a disadvantage in the exchange just now, he felt that his advantage would be greater in a life-and-death battle.


    There was no reason for this; it was just Zhou Feng¡¯s intuition.


    ¡°These Hundred-Year Ice Lotuses can be considered as sincerity!¡±


    Leng Maner gently took out a small storage bag.


    This storage bag contained several Hundred-Year Ice Lotuses that were plucked from the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm.


    Leng Maner had originally wanted to refine them into medicinal pills, but now she had taken them out in advance and handed them over to Zhou Feng in good faith.


    ¡°As long as you agree to become my nominal husband and compete for the Sect Leader position, then the previous conditions will remain the same!¡±


    Leng Maner once again mentioned the word ¡®husband¡¯.


    Compared to before, what Leng Maner said at this moment was even clearer.


    Zhou Feng agreed to become her nominal husband and announce that he was competing for the Sect Leader position.


    Of course, Zhou Feng would not be able to become the next Sect Leader. Even if he displayed enough monstrous talent, he was all alone.


    Leng Maner¡¯s idea was to make Zhou Feng stall for time. The news of him becoming Leng Maner¡¯s husband was enough for countless people to keep an eye on him.


    One had to know that Leng Maner was a true goddess in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    There were countless admirers in the sect. If Leng Maner had always been single, that would have been fine.


    There was a glimmer of hope for everyone. Who knew if they would be lucky?


    But if Leng Maner announced that she had a husband, everyone would blame that person.


    The pressure would be terrifying.


    What Zhou Feng needed to do was to bear this pressure and draw enough attention to buy enough time for Leng Maner.


    She planned to try to break through to the Purple Mansion realm. As long as she broke through to the Purple Mansion realm, there would be no objections to the Sect Leader position. The next Sect Leader would still be from the Ice Spirit faction.


    However, the fact that she was preparing to break through to the Purple Mansion realm could not be known by anyone. Once she was discovered, someone might not be able to resist making a move.


    ¡°Not enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the storage bag in his hand, but he still did not agree right away.


    The Ice Lotus was very important to him as it could eliminate the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effects, but he knew too well how much pressure it would take to become Leng Maner¡¯s nominal husband.


    This was basically the same as betraying the sect! Who knew how many times Zhou Feng had heard of the phrase ¡°female calamity¡±?


    To be honest, Zhou Feng¡¯s current situation was also very awkward.


    Even though he had relied on his earlier madness to allow his cultivation to directly leap to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm, correspondingly, he had offended the entire Tri-Gu Sect. Thus, Zhou Feng¡¯s little life was still in danger.


    If the Ice Spirit faction that Leng Maner represented was willing to protect him, that would be the best.


    Still, Zhou Feng was well aware that he was alone and had a backer. Others could turn against him if they wanted to and without any scruples.


    Thus, he would not foolishly agree to Leng Maner¡¯s conditions.


    ¡°Hold on for 20 days! This is the method to break through to the Purple Mansion realm! And you can enter the blessed land¡¯s Scripture Pavilion!¡±


    Leng Maner took out another jade slip.


    This time, Leng Maner¡¯s condition was something Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t refuse.


    A method to break through to the Purple Mansion realm!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s breathing paused slightly upon hearing this.


    This was what he needed the most right now.


    After breaking through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm, the next most important step was to condense the nascent soul, open up the Purple Mansion, and then unlock the innate divine ability!


    But as for how to condense his soul, open up his Purple Mansion, and unlock his innate divine ability¡­ he didn¡¯t know anything about it.


    Previously, the jade slip of inheritance he had obtained only allowed him to cultivate to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm.


    As for everything regarding the Purple Mansion realm, he had no idea at all.


    ¡®Persist for 20 days?¡¯


    Zhou Feng sank into silence.


    He knew very well that countless people would definitely come looking for trouble with him in the next few days once he agreed.


    Nevertheless, he had already offended many people. As the saying went, ¡°One doesn¡¯t have to worry about having too many debts.¡±


    In contrast, there was information regarding the Purple Mansion realm, as well as the qualifications to enter the blessed land¡¯s Scripture Pavilion.


    Even in a short period, Leng Maner wouldn¡¯t let Old Demon Gu make a move against him.


    As long as a Purple Mansion expert didn¡¯t make a move, Zhou Feng felt that he could still live.


    These 20 days were also the time for him to develop.


    These 20 days were enough for him to acquire a few more passive skills.


    At that time, his strength might still be able to increase by leaps and bounds.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s voice rang out, this transaction was considered to have been concluded.


    Leng Maner didn¡¯t say anything else. She was still as cold and desolate as ever.


    She directly threw the jade slip into Zhou Feng¡¯s hands.


    ¡°Later, you will return to the blessed land with me. Your previous crimes will be written off. The sect will not continue to pursue this matter!¡±


    Leng Maner gently took out a jade whistle and blew it.


    A leisurely and clear voice sounded.


    Then, a figure dived down from the sky.


    A shadow instantly covered Zhou Feng¡¯s body..

 Chapter 134 - Holding Hands?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    A huge snow-white condor descended from the sky like a cannonball.


    This Snow Condor was more than three meters tall. Just by standing there, it gave Zhou Feng a great sense of oppression.


    Its snow-white feathers reflected the sunlight.


    How should he put it? This Snow Condor could only be described as stunning.


    ¡®Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed this Snow Condor¡¯s aura. Its strength was at least equivalent to the aura of a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    In other words, this Snow Condor had strength comparable to his?


    Moreover, it was said that regardless of whether it was a demonic beast or a spirit beast, their strength exceeded that of a human¡¯s under the same realm.


    This was because the bodies of demonic beasts and spirit beasts were much stronger than a human¡¯s.


    In addition, all demonic beasts and spirit beasts were born with their own innate divine abilities.


    They weren¡¯t like humans who needed to cultivate to the Purple Mansion realm and condense a nascent soul before they could awaken their own innate divine abilities.


    ¡°Little Xue, sorry to trouble you.¡± Leng Maner gently touched Little Xue.


    Little Xue was the name of this big Snow Condor, although it wasn¡¯t small at all.


    Little Snow looked at Zhou Feng with her sharp eyes.


    Zhou Feng instantly felt a sharp pain.


    ¡®So strong!¡¯


    If Leng Maner worked together with the Snow Condor, would he be able to handle it?


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt pressured.


    This was the gap! Compared to the Sect Leader¡¯s daughter and him alone, the gap was still very big.


    If not for his passive skills, he might never be able to catch up to her.


    ¡°Come up!¡±


    Leng Maner coldly let Zhou Feng walk onto Little Xue¡¯s back.


    Zhou Feng calmed himself down a little, then carefully jumped onto Little Xue¡¯s back.


    There were few places on her back where people could stand, so he stood closer to Leng Maner.


    A refreshing fragrance instantly entered his nose.


    This was the body fragrance that Leng Maner emitted.


    Zhou Feng could observe Leng Maner¡¯s clear skin at such a close distance.


    Under the sunlight, Leng Maner¡¯s skin was like a clear piece of ice jade, giving people a magnificent feeling.


    Even Zhou Feng, who did not have any thoughts in his heart, could not help but feel a sense of desire when he saw such a beautiful woman up close.


    ¡®Beauty is a disaster!¡¯


    Previously, Zhou Feng had never understood why someone would want to die because of a woman.


    Some people even did some foolish things just to make a beauty smile. This was simply an idiotic act, but now, Zhou Feng began to understand why those people did so many stupid things just to make a beauty smile.


    Just as Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was a little unnatural, Leng Maner turned her head back slightly.


    The black hair on her back moved with the wind, and the fragrance intensified.


    Following that was Leng Maner¡¯s clear and elegant face. Her eyes did not have the slightest fluctuation.


    She did not show any disgust, nor did she tell Zhou Feng to stay away from her.


    This feeling was as if she was looking at an ordinary thing in a carefree way. It was utterly dull.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    After confirming that Zhou Feng was already standing properly, Leng Maner immediately told Little Xue to set off.


    Little Xue flapped her wings fiercely, and a strong gust of wind blew toward them.


    Zhou Feng was almost thrown to the ground. Luckily, his reaction was fast enough to stabilize his body. Otherwise, he would be making a fool of himself!


    Little Xue flew at breakneck speed, and Zhou Feng could only hear the wind whistling by his ears.


    A spirit beast that was strong enough and could be used as a transportation tool was truly enviable.


    If only he had a spirit beast like this as a companion.


    What a pity!


    It was basically impossible for him to raise such a spirit beast, given his situation.


    Raising such a spirit beast would consume far more resources than cultivators of the same cultivation level.


    However, Zhou Feng was not discouraged. He would only become stronger and stronger as long as he lingered for a long time.


    At that time, he might obtain passive skills related to beast taming.


    After a short while, Zhou Feng did not know where he was due to Little Xue¡¯s breakneck flying speed.


    He did not know how much time had passed.


    Zhou Feng felt as if he had penetrated through a thin layer of film, and then the surrounding environment suddenly changed.


    ¡®This feeling¡­ Is this the sect¡¯s blessed land?¡¯


    Feeling the familiar concentration of Spiritual Qi, Zhou Feng realized that he had returned to the sect¡¯s blessed land once again.


    This time, his appearance was extremely high-profile, directly following Leng Maner on a giant Snow Condor into the blessed land.


    To be able to enter and leave the blessed land so casually and high-profile, only Leng Maner would be able to do so in the entire sect.


    ¡°Eh? It¡¯s Maner! Maner has returned to the blessed land!¡±


    ¡°What Maner!? Is Eldest Senior Sister¡¯s name something you can shout?¡±


    ¡°Wait! There¡¯s another person on Little Xue¡¯s back! Impossible! This is impossible!¡±


    ¡°A second person? You must be joking! Apart from Eldest Senior Sister, Little Xue doesn¡¯t allow anyone else to stand on her back!¡±


    ¡°Really! Look!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people saw Leng Maner riding little Xue into the blessed land at the first possible moment.


    What caused countless people¡¯s hearts to break was that there was actually a second person on Little Xue¡¯s back!


    A man on top of that? This was absolutely impossible!


    As a spirit beast comparable to a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator, Little Xue¡¯s intelligence was extremely high. She wasn¡¯t much different from ordinary people.


    At the same time, Little Xue was arrogant. Normally, other people didn¡¯t even have the qualifications to approach her, much less let others stand on her back.


    Unless said person obtained Leng Maner¡¯s permission.


    Leng Maner was an aloof person, so how could she allow another person to stand on Little Xue¡¯s back with her?


    The most crucial thing was still that man.


    ¡°I heard that Eldest Senior Sister is going to announce who she has chosen as her husband! Could it be¡­¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not true! It¡¯s not true!¡±


    ¡°Who could it be? Who could take away the cold and beautiful Eldest Senior Sister!?¡±


    ¡°No matter who it is, I will never live under the same sky as him!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Some people were already fuming, their jealousy and envy overflowing from their words.


    Zhou Feng could already feel a few burning gazes as if they were going to kill him.


    Still, this was the extent of it. It could not shake his mind at all.


    However, in the next second, Zhou Feng¡¯s face could no longer remain as calm as before.


    This was because Leng Maner actually took a slight step back and stood side by side with him.


    Previously, although Zhou Feng and Leng Maner had been standing on Little Xue¡¯s back together, her back was facing him. They may look dazzling, but the two of them did not look like a couple at all.


    However, now that the two of them were standing side by side, it was too easy to daydream from afar.


    Moreover, this was not all. The eyeballs of countless people below almost popped out of their sockets in the next moment.


    Leng Maner¡¯s hand directly grabbed Zhou Feng¡¯s hand!


    They were just like a couple holding hands.


    ¡®So cold!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first feeling was that he was holding hands with a piece of ice..

 Chapter 135 - Sun-Moon Concentration Technique

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt as if he was holding onto a block of ice.


    Leng Maner¡¯s hand did not have the temperature of a normal human.


    Moreover, cold air was constantly invading his body.


    ¡°Alright! Next, you will live in the residence in the center of the blessed land.¡± Leng Maner¡¯s tone was still emotionless.


    After a simple tour, she brought Zhou Feng to the center of the blessed land.


    In the center of the blessed land was Lake Heart Island, and above it was where the Sect Leader lived.


    Under normal circumstances, only members of the Ice Spirit faction could live there.


    Now that Zhou Feng was living on Lake Heart Island, they were telling everyone that Zhou Feng was already a member of the Ice Spirit faction.


    Adding on the scene of Leng Maner holding hands with Zhou Feng, it was enough to make most people believe it.


    Leng Maner had chosen Zhou Feng as her husband.


    Although some people would definitely doubt it, it would not affect them even if they did.


    Just like the countless people below who were burning with anger.


    ¡°Why!? They are only using this person to share the pressure!¡±


    ¡°This dog¡¯s luck! I have to admit it! But this person probably won¡¯t live for long either!¡±


    ¡°Wait for death! Gong Jiu and Ye Zai won¡¯t let off this person.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    All sorts of envious, jealous, and hatred-filled expressions appeared on everyone¡¯s faces.


    But almost everyone was certain that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t live for more than three days.


    One had to know that Gong Jiu and Ye Zai, the two evildoers, had branded Leng Maner as a forbidden property.


    Although many people in the blessed land had fantasies about Leng Maner, they were still fantasies. There were only two people who could actually take action.


    These two fellows were currently the most monstrous individuals in the Tri-Gu Sect, Gong Jiu and Ye Zai.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng followed Leng Maner to live on Lake Heart Island.


    Once they entered Lake Heart Island, Leng Maner immediately disappeared. It was unknown where she went.


    Zhou Feng also locked himself in his room at the first moment; every minute and second was very important to him now.


    He was still in a dire situation, so he had to use every second to strengthen himself.


    ¡®Now I have the Ice Lotus! As for the Pure Blood Gu, there should be one here. Refining the Ice Heart Gu will not be difficult!¡¯


    He looked at one of the Hundred-Year Ice Lotuses he had gotten from Leng Maner.


    He noticed that this Hundred-Year Ice Lotus was still very fresh as if it had just been plucked.


    With this Hundred-Year Ice Lotus, refining the Ice Heart Gu would be much easier.


    In short, the side effects caused by using the Demon-Devouring Technique could be largely eliminated.


    He had only used the Demon-Devouring Technique twice, so the side effects were not too severe.


    As long as he used this Ice Heart Gu, this side effect should be completely eliminated.


    At the same time, he should stop using the Demon-Devouring Technique. If he continued using it, the Ice Heart Gu would not be able to suppress that terrifying side effect.


    ¡®Next is the cultivation method to break tough to the Purple Mansion realm!¡¯


    Zhou Feng took out the jade slip that recorded the Purple Mansion cultivation method.


    He had bravely broken through all the way to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm, and now he naturally wanted to continue breaking through.


    As for the side effects of breaking through so quickly, Zhou Feng did not care so much. After all, breaking through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm with his aptitude was already considered breaking through the limit.


    Breaking through too quickly would cause his foundation to be unstable? This was a worry that only geniuses would have.


    To him, it was enough to break through. As for the rest, it wasn¡¯t important at all.


    Zhou Feng used a strand of his soul power to read the information within the jade slip quickly.


    The more Zhou Feng read, the more solemn his expression became.


    The requirements for breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm were too high!


    First of all, the Purple Mansion realm¡¯s standard was to condense one¡¯s soul, as mentioned earlier.


    However, the condensation of one¡¯s soul was harsh. The soul power had to be pure, the Soul Altar mustn¡¯t be polluted, while the Soul Altar needed to be at least middle-grade.


    Just based on these three requirements, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t meet any of them.


    Pure soul power? After using the Demon-Devouring Technique, his soul power was already heterogenous.


    The Soul Altar was also polluted by the soul power of others because of the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    His Soul Altar was still a low-grade one. Although it was not the worst, it was still far from the requirement of condensing the nascent soul.


    If he followed the criteria above, wouldn¡¯t he have no chance at all?


    ¡®There¡¯s also the Yin Wind Tribulation when condensing the nascent soul!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression turned uglier.


    This was because this jade slip also recorded that when condensing the nascent soul, the newly formed nascent soul would encounter a calamity.


    That was the Yin Wind Tribulation. The shapeless Yin Wind was like countless small knives that continuously blew at one¡¯s nascent soul.


    Once the newly-born nascent soul could not withstand it, then the failure of the breakthrough would be the lightest outcome. Most people would die if they failed.


    There was basically no way to avoid this Yin Wind Tribulation, and one could only rely on themselves to withstand it.


    In addition, this jade slip also contained a method to condense the nascent soul¡ªthe Sun-Moon Concentration Technique!


    The essence of the sun and moon would be used to forge the power of the soul, slowly forging the embryonic form of the nascent soul.


    This concentration technique was the most common, and its efficiency was very low.


    It could only be used every day when the sun rose and the moon rose.


    Moreover, it was extremely painful when forging the nascent soul¡¯s embryonic form. The essence of the sun and the moon was not something that ordinary people could withstand.


    Using these two things to purify one¡¯s soul power was simply like the two worlds of ice and fire.


    Ordinary people simply could not withstand the baptism of the essence of the sun and the moon.


    The most important thing was that every time one used the essence of the sun and the moon, a large amount of soul power would be consumed.


    This resulted in the overconsumption of soul power and the constant need to replenish it.


    Thus, the efficiency was extremely low.


    Many people had used this Sun-Moon Concentration Technique to reach the Purple Mansion realm, but they never succeeded in breaking through until they died of old age.


    By the time the embryonic form of the nascent soul had been forged to a sufficiently pure level¡­ one¡¯s energy and blood would have long been wasted. They would no longer have the foundation to break through.


    Evidently, this cultivation method was a trap.


    However, Zhou Feng did not know that there were so many twists and turns. In any case, he was still very happy to have obtained this Sun-Moon Concentration Technique.


    He now had something to do with this Sun-Moon Concentration Technique.


    Zhou Feng was a little confused after his last breakthrough because he did not know how to cultivate to the next step.


    ¡®I¡¯ll try this Sun-Moon Concentration Technique tonight!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was sitting on the fishing platform on Lake Heart Island while a storm was brewing in the blessed land.


    This was naturally because Leng Maner had chosen Zhou Feng as her husband.


    Just as he had imagined before, this matter drew most people¡¯s attention.


    Leng Maner¡¯s husband was also related to the Sect Leader position.


    This person who had appeared out of nowhere actually beat them to it? This was something that other people could not accept.


    Although everyone knew Leng Maner used Zhou Feng to stall for time, many people were still unhappy. To be honest, if Zhou Feng were not currently on the island in the center of the lake, lots of men would have looked for trouble with Zhou Feng..

 Chapter 136 - Direct Punch

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Night fell, and not long after, wisps of moonlight descended from the moon that had just risen.


    At this time, Zhou Feng was sitting cross-legged in the courtyard. He planned to start receiving these wisps of moonlight to begin refining the embryonic form of his nascent soul.


    According to the records in the Sun-Moon Concentration Technique, Zhou Feng had to consume a large amount of soul power.


    He was receiving the moonlight from the sky.


    The moonlight was continuously drawn down and then fused into his Soul Altar.


    Instantly, Zhou Feng felt a chill that penetrated deep into his soul. It was as if it had directly frozen his entire body.


    ¡°So cold!¡±


    He forcefully pulled himself together and began to use the chilly moonlight to temper the little figure on the Soul Altar.


    This tempering process was extremely painful.


    This feeling was as if your entire body was frozen into ice, then smashed into pieces, and then repeated the process.


    It didn¡¯t take long before Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t hold on any longer.


    He could only stop.


    After stopping, Zhou Feng found that his soul power had been severely depleted, 1/10 of it to be more precise.


    But in contrast, his huge and heterogenous soul power began to become pure.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    Compared to the consumed soul power, the effect of purification seemed to be very ordinary.


    If he wanted to achieve the effect of soul condensation, how long would it take?


    Zhou Feng encountered the first difficulty of cultivating the Sun-Moon Concentration Technique.


    However, compared to the despair of the others, he did not feel that this Sun-Moon Concentration Technique was very conniving.


    Because to him, replenishing the soul power was simply too easy.


    As long as he killed a cultivator, he would have the chance to collect a strand of soul power with his passive Soul Harvesting.


    This consumed soul power was relatively easy to replenish.


    At present, numerous people in the blessed land wanted to kill him.


    Zhou Feng believed that countless people would want to take his life as long as he left the island.


    This was akin to soul power that would deliver itself to his door!


    ¡®I wonder what the effect of using the essence of the sun to temper my nascent soul during the day will be like.¡¯


    Although he didn¡¯t continue to use the moonlight to temper his nascent soul, he didn¡¯t rest. Instead, he continued to slowly polish the Spiritual Qi in his body on the spot, waiting for the sun to rise.


    In any case, day-and-night cultivation had become a part of Zhou Feng¡¯s daily routine. Ever since breaking through to the Soul Altar realm, he seemed to have hardly slept.


    Zhou Feng sat cross-legged in the courtyard for the entire night.


    The night sky gradually brightened, and a glimmer of light began to rise in the sky.


    The moon began to recede, and the sun began to rise.


    The moment the sun rose, Zhou Feng immediately received the sliver of sun essence that had just appeared.


    Compared to the moonlight, the sun essence was scarce. Only at the moment of sunrise could he receive it.


    If he was a little late, he would not be able to receive it.


    Zhou Feng relied on the power of his soul to receive the sliver of sun essence to the Soul Altar.


    After that, he felt as if his entire body had been ignited.


    A large amount of his soul power had been burned. When coupled with the coldness left behind by the refinement of the moonlight, he had truly experienced what it meant to be tortured in a world of ice and fire!


    It was painful!


    That endless pain caused Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body to tremble.


    It was too overbearing!


    Compared to the moonlight, this sliver of sun essence was too overbearing!


    Zhou Feng held on for a while more before this sliver of sun essence was slowly exhausted.


    Then, he felt it.


    He discovered that 1/4 of his soul power had been consumed.


    ¡°This is too overbearing!¡±


    Zhou Feng let out a long sigh of relief.


    No wonder it was so hard to break through to the Purple Mansion realm. He had only used the cultivation method once, but he already felt as if his entire body was about to die.


    The most despairing thing was that even after experiencing the second tempering, Zhou Feng¡¯s nascent soul had slightly solidified.


    It seemed a tad difficult to solidify it completely.


    ¡®Difficult! It looks like I¡¯ll have to find another way to increase my strength!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that breaking through to the Purple Mansion in a short period was an unreachable goal. Thus, he planned to see if there was any other way to increase his strength quickly.


    ¡®The Scripture Pavilion!¡¯


    The first thing he thought of was the Scripture Pavilion within the blessed land.


    Leng Maner had said that he could freely enter and exit the blessed land¡¯s Scripture Pavilion.


    Speaking of which, he didn¡¯t seem to have formally learned many dao techniques or anything like that.


    He could just go to the Scripture Pavilion and take a look.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had always wanted to go to the Scripture Pavilion on the main peak to take a look, but he was troubled by the lack of contribution points.


    Thus, he had never gone to take a look. Now, he could finally go to the legendary Scripture Pavilion and take a look.


    ¡°Son-in-law!¡±


    Zhou Feng had just walked out of the courtyard when he heard someone call him son-in-law.


    At that moment, he recalled that he seemed to have become Leng Maner¡¯s husband.


    Zhou Feng faced the servants who greeted him and nodded slightly in response.


    However, he had just walked halfway when someone directly stopped him.


    ¡°Yo! Is this the husband that Big Sister found? He doesn¡¯t look like much!¡±


    Leng Zhuang¡¯s face revealed his displeasure, and his tone was extremely sarcastic.


    As expected, a troublemaker appeared!


    Zhou Feng did not have much of a reaction to this because this was already something that could be expected.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    He did not say anything. No matter what he said, it would be useless.


    Since that was the case, he might as well save his strength.


    ¡°What? Not speaking? I know you should have some strength! Even if Big Sister randomly pulls someone over, not everyone is qualified!¡±


    Leng Zhuang saw that Zhou Feng had no intention of speaking, so the trace of displeasure on his face increased.


    Leng Zhuang was aware that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t weak.


    In fact, compared to most people, Zhou Feng¡¯s experience could be said to be legendary.


    Still, Zhou Feng had no backer. If there were no accidents, Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm should be Zhou Feng¡¯s final destination.


    How could a mere Soul Altar cultivator match up to Leng Maner?


    One had to know that Leng Maner was a monster who had a chance to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡°Hey! I¡¯m warning you here! You¡¯re only a temporary substitute, someone who can match up to Big Sister¡­¡±


    Leng Zhuang¡¯s condescending attitude displeased Zhou Feng.


    Seeing that Leng Zhuang was going to continue blabbering on and on about some nonsense, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t be bothered with this person. He bypassed Leng Zhuang, planning to head directly to the Scripture Pavilion.


    ¡°You!¡±


    When Leng Zhuang saw Zhou Feng¡¯s actions, he also moved in an attempt to stop Zhou Feng.


    In the next second!


    Violent Demonic Qi surged from Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and a heavy punch kissed Leng Zhuang¡¯s cheek.


    There was no mercy at all!


    Leng Zhuang did not think someone would dare attack him on Lake Heart Island. He also did not think that Zhou Feng would dare to attack. In Leng Zhuang¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was a temporary son-in-law of the Leng family, no matter what he did.


    Zhou Feng could only swallow his anger.


    Therefore, Leng Zhuang was sent flying, and a few of his teeth flew far away.


    After sending Leng Zhuang flying with one punch, Zhou Feng did not look at him and continued to walk forward.


    In his opinion, it was the most convenient way to make a direct move.


    Compared to arguing for a long time and finally breaking out in a conflict, it was better to let fists do the talking..

 Chapter 137 - Blood-Burning Technique

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Zhou Feng was faced with a conflict, he had his own understanding.


    Just like the person in front of him who had stopped him, it was certain he was here to cause trouble for him from his tone and behavior.


    Even if he spoke nicely, the final result would not change.


    Because both sides had different positions, it would not change this fact no matter what you said.


    Since that was the case, it was better to be straightforward.


    ¡°You! You¡¯re just¡­¡±


    Leng Zhuang was stunned by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    Then, Leng Zhuang¡¯s anger rushed to his head, and he planned to make a move here.


    But soon, Leng Zhuang calmed down.


    Zhou Feng was staring at him. He would definitely receive another blow if he dared to make any move.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body already exuded traces of killing intent.


    This was not a joke!


    As long as Leng Zhuang dared to make a move, he would die.


    ¡®Damn it!¡¯


    Leng Zhuang was instantly terrified in the face of a life and death crisis.


    At that moment, he realized the person in front of him was a genuine Grade-1 Soul Altar expert.


    Many people had died at Zhou Feng¡¯s hands.


    Moreover, this person was the real devil king of the chaotic world. He had no scruples at all. As long as he was provoked, basically, no one would be able to survive.


    Leng Zhuang¡¯s state of mind had not been adjusted previously.


    He had been under the impression that Zhou Feng had actually become his eldest sister¡¯s nominal husband. In other words, he must be willing to be the Leng family¡¯s dog.


    However, in reality, this was not the case.


    Zhou Feng glanced at Leng Zhuang indifferently, then turned around and left.


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s disappearing figure and then realizing that the servants around were secretly looking at him, Leng Zhuang felt his face burn.


    This was so embarrassing!


    ¡®I¡¯m also an idiot! How could I do such a thing with just a little encouragement!?¡¯


    After Leng Zhuang calmed down, he realized that someone seemed to be deliberately encouraging him by his side.


    Normally, he would never do such a thing.


    This was too stupid.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what Leng Zhuang was thinking. He only felt that he didn¡¯t have enough time.


    Zhou Feng had heard the servants of Lake Heart Island talking about it. It seemed that the battle between the Tri-Gu Sect and the Voodoo Cult was coming to an end.


    At that time, all the Elders would be back.


    What Zhou Feng was most worried about was Old Demon Gu¡¯s return.


    He did not know if Leng Maner would be able to fulfill her promise and stop Old Demon Gu. Therefore, he had to use every minute and second to increase his strength.


    Not long after, Zhou Feng arrived at the blessed land¡¯s Scripture Pavilion.


    He did not stay for long. Relying on the token Leng Maner had given him, he smoothly entered the Scripture Pavilion.


    ¡°Is that¡­ the Sect Leader¡¯s token? Could this person be¡­¡±


    ¡°It can¡¯t be wrong! It¡¯s that person!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people noticed Zhou Feng and recognized him.


    The husband that Eldest Senior Sister had personally chosen had appeared!


    As soon as this piece of news spread, the atmosphere in the surroundings began to become strange.


    No one was watching! No one was shouting!


    Everyone was discussing in low voices.


    Zhou Feng had also sensed the changes in the surroundings.


    To be honest, he was looking forward to someone making a move against him.


    As long as someone made a move against him, he would have a reason to counterattack and trigger the passive Soul Harvesting.


    At present, the consumption of his soul power was too severe, so he continued to replenish it. Only by replenishing his soul power could he continue to cultivate the Sun-Moon Concentration Technique.


    ¡®Offensive dao techniques¡­¡¯


    The moment Zhou Feng entered the Scripture Pavilion, he immediately rushed to the area where the offensive dao techniques were stored.


    The lack of offensive techniques was one of his fatal weaknesses.


    To be honest, the only offensive technique Zhou Feng used during battle was none other than the Demon-Devouring Battle Art.


    He could also activate the Purple Jade Bell but not use it for long.


    Other than that, he had no other fighting techniques. Basically, he relied on his Tough Skin to force his opponent to be cautious in hand-to-hand combat.


    In many cases, Zhou Feng¡¯s opponent had no choice but to give up on most of his techniques to fight him head-on.


    A life-for-life battle style was too strong, restricting many people¡¯s attacking means.


    However, this kind of battle style would not be very effective against people who were much stronger than him or who knew him better.


    Therefore, other attacking methods were necessary.


    Once others saw through Zhou Feng¡¯s battle style, it would be difficult to win.


    The most important thing was that he was not very familiar with the Demon-Devouring Battle Art, and he did not understand its essence.


    There was no other way! In terms of cultivation aptitude, Zhou Feng was just an ordinary person.


    ¡®Gu Explosion Technique¡­


    ¡®Gu Suction Essence Restoration Technique¡­¡¯


    ¡®Blazing Sun Technique¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng casually took a look and discovered that most of the dao techniques here were related to Gus.


    For example, this Gu Explosion Technique could detonate the cultivated Gu.


    This type of dao technique had great power, but it would waste numerous cultivated Gus every time it was used.


    There were all sorts of Gu-raising techniques, but offensive dao techniques were very rare.


    Zhou Feng browsed for a long time, but only the Blazing Sun Technique was not related to Gus.


    Unfortunately, this Blazing Sun Technique was very troublesome to cultivate, and it required a special type of flame.


    ¡®No? Are the core dao techniques and arts all in the hands of the Elders!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng guessed that the true core inheritance would not be stored in the Scripture Pavilion but would be grasped by the Elders themselves.


    They relied on the inheritance jade slips to pass them on to their disciples.


    Just like when Zhou Feng had obtained the Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s inheritance jade slip.


    If that was really the case, then this Scripture Pavilion should not have any good things.


    Even though there were many complete Gu refinement methods here, Zhou Feng did not want to start from the beginning. Gu refinement was too slow when it came to increasing one¡¯s strength!


    Zhou Feng hoped to find a faster method that could directly increase his strength.


    He did not mind even if there were side effects!


    Anyway, he was already used to it. Zhou Feng had already cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, this extremely unorthodox cultivation method.


    Surprisingly, Zhou Feng found another unorthodox technique after some time!


    There were many dao arts and techniques that had serious side effects in a corner of the Scripture Pavilion.


    ¡®Blood-Burning Technique!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng picked up the Blood-Burning Technique and prepared to read it carefully.


    The so-called Blood-Burning Technique was just like its name. It could burn one¡¯s Blood Qi to improve one¡¯s strength in all aspects.


    The strength, endurance, and speed of one¡¯s body could be doubled after using the Blood-Burning Technique.


    On the other hand, the Blood-Burning Technique was extremely exhausting.


    After the duration ended, the damage to the body would be almost irreversible. It would take a long time to recover, and it was accompanied by intense pain. It was almost unbearable for ordinary people.


    It was impossible to use the Blood-Burning Technique in a normal battle. It would only be used when there was no other choice.


    It was a last resort dao technique..

 Chapter 138 - The Competition for the Next Sect Leader!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Consume Blood Qi?¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that this Blood-Burning Technique was quite suitable for him.


    First of all, this Blood-Burning Technique consumed Blood Qi. He did not dare to say that his Blood Qi was definitely strong enough.


    Due to his Level-2 Gluttony, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi had always been abundant.


    No matter how much Blood Qi was consumed, it could be replenished through the Level-2 Gluttony.


    Then there was the damage after the Blood-Burning Technique ended. He didn¡¯t seem to be too worried about this.


    Thanks to his passive Self-Healing Constitution, the damage seemed to be able to recover on its own.


    In fact, the more severe the side effects were, the faster Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery speed would be.


    He felt that the Blood-Burning Technique¡¯s side effects were nothing to him with a few passive counteractions.


    That¡¯s right!


    He chose to cultivate the Blood-Burning Technique without a shred of hesitation.


    Besides the Blood-Burning Technique, Zhou Feng also discovered the Spiritual Attachment Art.


    This was a body-tempering art, and the side effects were very obvious. It was an art that forcefully restrained the Spiritual Qi in the body, thus making the body tougher.


    The specific method was to circulate the surrounding Spiritual Qi and then use a special method to attach the Spiritual Qi to the body forcibly.


    With the addition of the Spiritual Qi, the cultivator¡¯s body would become terrifying.


    Tearing a soul artifact with one¡¯s bare hands was not a problem at all.


    Still, the longer one¡¯s Spiritual Qi was attached to the body, the more damage it would do to the body.


    If one attached their Spiritual Qi for a long time, the entire body would collapse because it could not withstand the violent Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®Is this another self-harming art?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that this Spiritual Attachment Art suited his battle style.


    Although this was a self-harming art, one would obtain astounding battle prowess.


    Under normal circumstances, this art would only be used a few times in one¡¯s lifetime. After all, if one used this art frequently, they would be courting death.


    An ordinary person would not be able to withstand such side effects.


    Zhou Feng was different, however!


    He had several passive skills that could counteract such side effects.


    Putting aside other things, Zhou Feng felt that this self-harming art was very suitable for him due to his passive Injury Conversion.


    The more severe the injury, the stronger his attack power would be.


    Then there was the Unyielding Heart, Fast healing, and Self-Healing Constitution. The more severe the injury, the faster his recovery speed would be.


    The only thing to worry about was how much damage Zhou Feng would do to his body if he continued to injure himself and recover.


    If he continued to injure himself and recover from the injury, then injure himself and recover from the injury, and repeated this cycle, he would probably lose a few years of his life.


    Still, given his circumstances, it was unclear whether he would be able to live until next year.


    Why would he worry about losing a few years of his life?


    Moreover, his lifespan seemed to be 20 years longer than an ordinary person¡¯s because of the passive Longevity.


    Then he would just have to do his best!


    ¡®Not bad!¡¯


    Zhou Feng picked these two arts and did not plan to continue looking.


    These two were already enough. As the saying went, ¡°One should not bite off more than they could chew.¡±


    It was useless to have too many of these arts.


    Soon, Zhou Feng relied on Leng Maner¡¯s token to bring the jade slip that recorded the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art out of the Scripture Pavilion.


    As soon as Zhou Feng left, someone passed the arts he had picked out.


    ¡°I found it! It¡¯s the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art!¡±


    ¡°Is¡­ Is he going to fight it out?¡±


    ¡°It seems that Zhou Feng seems to be quite familiar with his situation!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When Gong Jiu and the others found out about the two arts that Zhou Feng had taken from the Scripture Pavilion, they immediately looked down on Zhou Feng.


    It was obvious that he was at his wit¡¯s end, to the point he was going to use such last resort .arts


    Even though they looked down on Zhou Feng, Gong Jiu and the others were not too arrogant.


    Now that they had reached an agreement, it was already a consensus that Zhou Feng had to die.


    However, the way he died was a matter that needed to be discussed.


    After all, Zhou Feng was the husband that Leng Maner had personally chosen, even though it was in name.


    They had to respect Leng Maner¡¯s opinion.


    ¡°If you want me to say it, just directly challenge him to a battle!¡±


    ¡°Directly defeat Zhou Feng. This way, no one will gossip, and we won¡¯t lose face!¡±


    ¡°Directly challenge him? I¡¯m afraid that Zhou Feng won¡¯t dare to accept the challenge!¡±


    ¡°Won¡¯t accept the challenge? Then we¡¯ll put pressure on him!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After thinking about it for a while, this group of people felt that assassinating him wasn¡¯t a good idea.


    They might as well directly challenge and kill Zhou Feng in front of everyone.


    Firstly, if they did this, others wouldn¡¯t gossip about them. Secondly, they could use this opportunity to make a name for themselves.


    The competition for the Sect Leader position was getting more and more intense. If one could kill Zhou Feng, they would be able to gain a lot of prestige.


    ¡°However, this kid is a little strange! Moreover, he seems to have a spiritual weapon on him! I still have to test him out!¡±


    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, why don¡¯t we just make it a battle of attrition!¡±


    ¡°Battle of attrition?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Since Zhou Feng has become Maner¡¯s husband, then he will have to endure everyone¡¯s test!¡±


    ¡°If he can persist through the continuous battles, then¡­¡±


    This person didn¡¯t say anything else because no one present believed that Zhou Feng could survive multiple battles.


    Many people in the blessed land were dissatisfied with Zhou Feng becoming Leng Maner¡¯s husband.


    Then, they might as well use this dissatisfaction to force Zhou Feng into a battle of attrition.


    That person seemed to want to say that the entire blessed land would acknowledge Zhou Feng as Leng Maner¡¯s husband if he could survive in the end.


    From now on, no one could find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    By saying this, it was equivalent to forcing Zhou Feng to agree with the people¡¯s will.


    It wouldn¡¯t be a simple battle but a show to earn a reputation at that time.


    ¡®I can¡¯t believe it! Then I should fight with Ye Zai!¡¯ Gong Jiu narrowed his eyes.


    He planned to make this round of battle into a competition for the next Sect Leader. Whoever could stand at the end would be qualified to be the next Sect Leader.


    The competition for the next Sect Leader had been going on for a long time, so it was time to end it now.


    Gong Jiu and the others decided to use this opportunity to hold a competition for the position of the next Sect Leader.


    This piece of news instantly spread throughout the entire blessed land.


    The entire blessed land was in an uproar. Many people rushed back to the blessed land as soon as they received the news, wanting to participate in this feast!


    ¡°Did you hear? In a few days, the sect is going to decide on the next Sect Leader at the Life-Death Arena!¡±


    ¡°How is this possible? Who said that?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s true! This is the news from Gong Jiu!¡±


    ¡°What! This is also¡­¡±


    When the higher-ups of the sect heard this, they did not express their opinions, as if they had tacitly agreed.


    Thus, a battle between the Tri-Gu geniuses started with Zhou Feng as the fuse.


    Zhou Feng did not know that he had become the source of a storm.


    At present, he was working hard to learn the two arts that he had just obtained..

 Chapter 139 - Battle of Attrition: Tomorrow!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®The Blood-Burning Technique¡­¡¯


    After Zhou Feng picked out the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art from the Scripture Pavilion, he immediately returned to his room to cultivate.


    These two battle arts could be considered as the most suitable he could find at the moment.


    This was because other battle arts required a certain amount of time and energy to cultivate, but the benefits were not necessarily high.


    In order to unleash the full power of such battle arts, he would have to spend some time slowly polishing them.


    Compared to the disciples who had cultivated in the Tri-Gu Sect since young, Zhou Feng¡¯s disadvantage was very obvious.


    It had not even been a year since he officially started cultivating.


    Compared to the older disciples who had cultivated for more than ten years, his foundation was far too lacking.


    If not for the many passive skills, he would not have reached this level of power.


    However, the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art were different.


    These two were self-harming arts, which were relatively easy to cultivate and could instantly unleash their power.


    Zhou Feng was currently trying to use the Blood-Burning Technique.


    The Blood Qi in his body was fully mobilized and operating strangely.


    ¡®So hot!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt his body was heating up crazily. His blood seemed to be on fire, and his entire body began to emit a wave of heat.


    The surrounding air was distorted as well.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng punched the puppet in front of him.


    This punch, which seemed to have no power, instantly shattered the puppet in front of him.


    One had to know that this puppet was made of special materials, the types that were extremely difficult to break.


    ¡®So powerful!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that his strength had increased by several times. It was indeed worthy of being used as a desperate self-harming art.


    After feeling this exaggerated increase in strength, Zhou Feng also felt the Blood-Burning Technique¡¯s side effects.


    Although he had an abundance of Blood Qi, he was unable to withstand such a short period of consumption.


    Not only did this art forcefully burn his Blood Qi to increase his strength, in addition to consuming his Blood Qi, but it also caused great damage to his body.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    After Zhou Feng stopped using the Blood-Burning Technique, he realized that his body was filled with densely packed injuries.


    It was as if his body was only one meter tall, and he forcefully increased it to two meters through the Blood-Burning Technique.


    After the Blood-Burning Technique¡¯s effect ended, he would return to his original height.


    However, his body was already damaged. A normal person could only use this art once or twice. If they used it more, it would be fatal!


    ¡®It seems that I have to end the battle quickly in the future. I can¡¯t drag it out!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that he could not drag out the battle in the future.


    It would be best if he could end the battle within a single exchange.


    Otherwise, with the Blood-Burning Technique¡¯s side effects, the longer he dragged this out, the heavier the burden on his body would be.


    ¡®Next is the Spiritual Attachment Art¡­¡¯


    After testing out the Blood-Burning Technique, he planned to try out the other art.


    The Spiritual Attachment Art focused on forcibly attaching Spiritual Qi to one¡¯s physical body to increase the physical body¡¯s strength.


    It was very simple to cast this art. One only needed to use their soul power to attach the Spiritual Qi on flesh and blood.


    The huge amount of Spiritual Qi was instantly restrained, and then all of it was sealed onto Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    After that, Zhou Feng took out a knife and fiercely chopped it down on his body.


    Dang!


    In an instant, the knife was blown away!


    Moreover, the knife shattered into countless pieces as it was blown away.


    Not only did using the Spiritual Attachment Art greatly increase one¡¯s defensive ability, but it even added an additional rebound force!?


    The Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art increased attack and defense power.


    The combination was simply invincible!


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s face instantly turned pale. The side effects of the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art intensified when he used them in tandem.


    He felt that he could only hold on for one minute at most before he had to stop using the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art. Otherwise, his body would not be able to hold on.


    ¡®Still, I can slowly recover from my injuries during the battle! Then, I can use the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art for the second time!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the degree of recovery of his injuries.


    Although using the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art for a long time was not an option, he could use them again after a short period of recovery.


    The terrifying recovery speed allowed Zhou Feng to overdraw his body repeatedly.


    Unfortunately, he didn¡¯t know the consequences of doing so.


    One thing was certain, though. If Zhou Feng really did this, his body would definitely be destroyed beyond belief.


    ¡®Who cares?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even think about whether his body could withstand it.


    That was because it was useless even if he thought about it. Under the current situation, he had no way of solving it himself.


    It would be better to see if he could obtain a passive skill that could solve this issue later.


    For example, a passive skill like Rebirth would not be bad!


    Currently, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation path was mostly wasted. If there was a chance to do it all over again, he could cultivate once more.


    Then all of this would be resolved, even if it was a little whimsical.


    Still, it was not impossible!


    Speaking of passive skills, he opened the skill panel and checked the progress bar.


    ¡®It¡¯s not full yet.¡¯


    The skill panel¡¯s progress bar was only half full. If he wanted to obtain the next passive skill, he would have to wait.


    Zhou Feng had noticed a pattern. The speed of the progress bar was related to the various types of energy he had obtained.


    Although he had killed many people, this only served to trigger the passive Soul Harvesting to obtain soul power. Thus, the progress bar was slower.


    ¡°Son-in-law! Lady Maner has sent something for you!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was thinking about quickly obtaining the next passive skill, a servant knocked on the door.


    ¡®Something for me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. What would Leng Maner give him?


    He walked to the door and received a letter.


    The maid who delivered the letter left in a hurry. She looked like she was running for her life.


    Speaking of which, although he had become Leng Maner¡¯s nominal husband, the Leng family didn¡¯t bother with him.


    Except for some servants, no one dared to approach the place where Zhou Feng usually stayed.


    That gesture seemed to tell others that the Leng family didn¡¯t acknowledge Zhou Feng as their son-in-law.


    It seemed that there was a conflict between Leng Maner and her family.


    Zhou Feng opened the envelope and read the contents of the letter carefully. ¡®A battle of attrition? Is It related to the Sect Leader position?¡¯


    After reading it, his expression was strange.


    How was this related to the Sect Leader position? And why was it a battle of attrition directed at him?


    The letter clearly stated that Zhou Feng needed to accept the battle of attrition and face the geniuses from all walks of life.


    And there was no reason to reject it.


    Leng Maner¡¯s request to Zhou Feng was to stall for as much time as possible. Even if he was beaten, he had to stall for time.


    What¡¯s worse, Zhou Feng had no time to prepare¡ªthe fight would take place tomorrow!

 Chapter 140 - Refinement of the Ice Heart Gu

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Tomorrow? So urgent?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned. He had not imagined that the others would initiate a fight so soon after entering the blessed land for a short period.


    It seemed that those people were not willing to wait for another day.


    To be honest, this round of battles was out of Leng Maner¡¯s expectations.


    Leng Maner did not think that those people would be so direct, not giving her any time to delay.


    Originally, according to Leng Maner¡¯s plan, Zhou Feng would have to delay for at least 20 days.


    Leng Maner would be able to try to break through within these 20 days.


    But now, with this battle of attrition, Zhou Feng probably wouldn¡¯t be able to last even a day.


    If it were a one-vs-one battle, Leng Maner would still have some confidence in Zhou Feng.


    There were many talented disciples in the sect, and Zhou Feng probably wouldn¡¯t be able to last even the first day if they took turns.


    To be honest, Leng Maner had already put in motion her backup plan.


    As for Zhou Feng, he could hold on for as long as he could!


    ¡®This battle of attrition¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng took some unknown medicinal herbs out of his storage ring and stuffed them into his mouth as he started to think about how to deal with this battle.


    Soon, his Level-2 Gluttony was triggered, and all the medicinal herbs he had stuffed into his mouth turned into Blood Qi.


    This was to replenish his previous consumption.


    Zhou Feng now had to plan how he would fight it out.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng was more suitable to fight in a round-robin battle because of his passive Whetstone, which allowed him to increase his endurance after a battle.


    After experiencing so many battles, his endurance had long increased by a lot. He did not need to worry about his stamina.


    ¡®Stall for time! In other words, should I act like a turtle?¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about it. The letter stated that he should try to stall for time.


    Then he would not take the initiative to attack. Instead, he would let the opponent attack and rely on his endurance and recovery speed. Wouldn¡¯t he be able to stall for a day?


    After all, he had come to an agreement with Leng Maner.


    Leng Maner had not only allowed him to enter and exit the Scripture Pavillion freely, but she also helped him obtain a few Pure Blood Gu.


    As such, Zhou Feng had to keep his part of the deal.


    Since Leng Maner wanted to stall for time, he would stall for time.


    It was a war of attrition! It was impossible for him to go up against the strongest at the start!


    Normally, the few who went up before the battle of attrition would be there to exhaust his stamina.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, he felt that he could play for a year if he only needed to defend and not attack.


    ¡®It seems that I can only do this¡­¡¯


    ¡®Isn¡¯t it a mere battle of attrition? Then I will directly cheat!


    ¡®Moreover, the battle will be held in front of everyone, so it should be very difficult for so many people to act behind the scenes!¡¯


    The stake of the battle was the position of the next Sect Leader. If someone did something in such a situation, then no one would be convinced of the final result.


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more correct he was. He did not panic at all and decided to refine the Ice Heart Gu.


    ¡®I should refine the Ice Heart Gu first. Otherwise, all sorts of illusions will appear in front of me¡­¡¯


    Leng Maner had handed to him the main ingredient he needed to refine the Ice Heart Gu, so he could now start refining the Ice Heart Gu and resolve the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effects.


    To be honest, these side effects were really annoying.


    Not only did they cause the Soul Altar to be polluted, but the practitioner would also see all kinds of illusions. There would be whispers in one¡¯s ears from time to time as well.


    Zhou Feng had long regretted using the Demon-Devouring Technique, even though it was very satisfying when one¡¯s cultivation level rose rapidly. The price was too severe. It was better to use the passive Soul Harvesting.


    Every time Zhou Feng thought of this, he felt that he had been too anxious back then.


    Nonetheless, it had happened; a person¡¯s decision could not always be right.


    Zhou Feng only felt a little regretful. He would not have used the Demon-Devouring Technique if he had a choice back then.


    Zhou Feng headed to the Gu refinement pool, full of Gus. This was the preparation he had made to refine the Ice Heart Gu.


    One could see Pure Blood Gus in the pool. After this period of mutual devouring, there were only three huge Pure Blood Gus left.


    ¡°Next is the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus!¡±


    Zhou Feng bit his finger and dripped his blood into the pool.


    Next, he used his soul power to agitate the Gus in the pool and finally put the Hundred-Year Ice Lotus into the pool.


    Zhou Feng followed the steps of refining the Ice Heart Gu, and the process was more like an experiment.


    There was not much that could be changed in the whole process. Even if the correct steps were followed, the final result might end up as a failure.


    This was full of randomness. One might fail to refine the Gu or even refine a strange Gu.


    The Ice Heart Gu was special, but it could live in a person¡¯s body like other Gus.


    When the Ice Heart Gu lived in a person¡¯s body, it would continuously release a cool aura.


    This cool aura could calm a person¡¯s emotions, allowing them to maintain a clear mind.


    It could also allow one to temporarily enter the realm where one would be unmoved regardless of the wind or rain.


    Such a special Gu was of no use to most people.


    This was because it did not help the speed of cultivation, and it was also a burden to oneself.


    That¡¯s right! It would not be over once the Ice Heart Gu was successfully refined.


    Like most Gus, once the Ice Heart Gu parasitized a person¡¯s body, it would absorb Spiritual Qi to maintain its own body at all times.


    Almost no one in the Tri-Gu Sect wanted to refine this kind of Gu, which could not assist in cultivation and did not have the ability to fight. Only people with special needs like Zhou Feng would refine this kind of Gu.


    For example, the Energy-Absorbing Gu that could assist in cultivation was the most popular Gu in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Basically, every disciple wished that they could have a kind of Energy-Absorbing Gu to live in their body.


    This Energy-Absorbing Gu could help one to absorb and purify Spiritual Qi, making the host¡¯s cultivation speed several times faster than the average person.


    Unfortunately, the Energy-Absorbing Gu was extremely difficult to refine, and it was also very expensive to raise.


    Unlike most Gus that could eat Spiritual Qi to maintain their bodies, the Energy-Absorbing Gu also needed to eat some special spirit herbs regularly. Thus, an average person could not afford to raise it.


    Zhou Feng was very interested in the Gu system, but these strange Gus needed to be nurtured slowly.


    He did not have the time to study them slowly.


    To be honest, this Ice Heart Gu was relatively easy to refine. As long as the most important ingredient was gathered, it could normally be refined successfully.


    Otherwise, Zhou Feng would not want to refine the Gu like this slowly.


    If he wanted to study this Gu slowly, he might as well study how ato quickly obtain a passive skill.


    Perhaps when he left the Tri-Gu Sect and did not face so much pressure to survive, he would study this Gu system. After all, there were many jade slips regarding refining various Gus in Zhou Feng¡¯s storage ring..

 Chapter 141 - Daylight Combat

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng had made a lot of preparations earlier, so the refinement process of Ice Heart Gu was smooth; there might be a trace of luck involved.


    ¡®This is Ice Heart Gu?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at this chubby silkworm in front of him, his eyes filled with curiosity.


    To be honest, other than the Demon-Devouring Gu, he had not seen many Gus.


    This Ice Heart Gu was like an infant silkworm, its entire body was crystal clear, and it did not even have eyes.


    Its transparent body had a red line.


    Moreover, this Ice Heart Gu did not move at all. It was completely different from the active and violent Pure Blood Gu.


    He carefully placed the Ice Heart Gu in his palm and slowly circulated his soul power to lure the Ice Heart Gu.


    During this process, he could not be too impatient. He needed to lure the Ice Heart Gu slowly.


    Zhou Feng also could not force the Ice Heart Gu to enter his body. Otherwise, the Ice Heart Gu might enter a dormant state.


    This knowledge was recorded in Bitter Bamboo Peak¡¯s inheritance jade slip.


    However, once the Ice Heart Gu chose to live inside a certain person, it would be easier to feed it.


    It did not even need to be cared for. One only needed to pay some Spiritual Qi and soul power to make the Ice Heart Gu work for them.


    Compared to most Gus, the Ice Heart Gu was the least troublesome.


    Zhou Feng did not want to come into contact with the Gu system because it was too troublesome.


    Different Gus needed different care, and he also needed to feed some spiritual items regularly. He preferred the simpler and rougher ones.


    The Ice Heart Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s palm slightly moved its chubby body.


    Then its body shrunk to the size of a grain of rice, directly digging a hole in Zhou Feng¡¯s palm and entering his body through the blood vessels.


    Finally, the Ice Heart Gu entered the Gu Aperture that Zhou Feng had opened before and settled down.


    And this so-called Gu Aperture was a place specially opened for Gus to live in.


    In the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s system, besides the Vital Gu, all the other Gus that lived in the body had to live in the Gu Aperture.


    Gu Apertures were similar to apertures in humans, and they could be opened very easily.


    Moreover, they had almost no effect on the human body.


    The only thing that had some effect was that this Gu Aperture could not be opened too much. Opening a large one would cause problems.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    When the Ice Heart Gu entered the Gu Aperture, Zhou Feng could clearly feel a cool aura spreading throughout his body.


    This cool aura directly rushed to his head.


    In an instant, he was much more awake.


    ¡®This is a very refreshing feeling.¡¯


    It was as if the world in front of him had been cleansed, and his eyes brightened.


    The problem that troubled Zhou Feng was instantly discarded.


    ¡®This is too great!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that he had gotten rid of the pressure of 10,000 jin.


    In contrast, his soul power was in a state of consumption.


    Although the consumption was not much, it was still a huge burden.


    Gus were like external aids the more one looked at them. As long as he used them well, they would be able to bring out unexpected effects.


    He did not need to worry about the Demon-Devouring Technique¡¯s side effects now.


    Next was tomorrow¡¯s battle.


    ¡®Should I forcefully draw a passive skill?¡¯


    Zhou Feng still felt a lot of pressure regarding tomorrow¡¯s battle.


    At present, he felt that his strength had already reached a limit.


    Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm was already the limit. Breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm in a short period was an impossible task.


    As for battle arts, weapons, and other aspects, there was almost no room for improvement.


    The only option that could forcefully increase his strength was the skill panel.


    As long as he obtained a good passive skill, his strength might rise in a straight line.


    He wanted to put in use the summarized knowledge from earlier and speed up the skill panel¡¯s progress bar.


    Other than a breakthrough in cultivation, he also needed to absorb a large amount of Spiritual Qi.


    Storing a large amount of Spiritual Qi in his body would speed up the skill panel¡¯s progress bar.


    However, this also meant that he needed to consume numerous Spirit Stones.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had not noticed that he had squandered lots of Spirit Stones in his storage ring.


    If he were to use them now, there might really not be any left.


    The storage ring contained the savings of an entire Han Clan, yet Zhou Feng had almost completely squandered it.


    ¡®Should I keep this for New Year¡¯s? It has already come to this!¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for another second and decided to spend all his Spirit Stones so that he could obtain another passive skill.


    As such, he took all the Spirit Stones out of his storage ring and started to devour their pure Spiritual Qi crazily.


    While he was devouring, he also opened his skill panel to observe the progress bar.


    As expected, the progress bar was slowly increasing.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s body could not contain so much Spiritual Qi, which caused a lot of it to be wasted. Not even the Demon-Devouring Gu could absorb it all.


    In order to obtain a passive skill in advance, he wasted many Spirit Stones. He did not know if it was worth it, but he had already done it. There was no turning back now.


    Soon, the Spirit Stones were completely depleted.


    The progress bar on the skill panel was finally full.


    He could now draw a new passive skill.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    It was this familiar process and this exciting moment again.


    Although this scene had been repeated many times, Zhou Feng still did not feel bored at all. Instead, he was looking forward to it every time.


    It was like opening a mystery box. Every time, there was a kind of anticipation.


    ¡°Extraction successful!¡±


    Daylight Combat: You will be even more valiant when you fight under the sun!


    Your Speed will increase by 10 points under the sun!


    ¡°Daylight Combat? Is it a passive skill that is limited by the field?¡±


    Zhou Feng checked the new passive skill, and it seemed a little interesting.


    This was already a little like a field card.


    As long as he was under the sun, his speed would increase by 10 points.


    His speed would increase by 10 points!


    Although he did not know the specific quantification of these 10 points of speed, this was still a considerable increase in his combat strength.


    Compared to his previous passive skill, these 10 points of speed increase should not be considered a small amount.


    ¡®Not bad!¡¯


    Although he was a little disappointed that he did not draw an even more abnormal passive skill, it was not considered bad. Compared to those useless passive skills, it was already considered pretty good.


    With this passive Daylight Combat, he should be able to last longer in tomorrow¡¯s battle.


    Moreover, tomorrow¡¯s battle was also a good time to collect souls. Hopefully, those true monsters wouldn¡¯t go on stage so early.


    It would be best if they let him slowly muddle around for a while. Finally, he would be able to use his passive Soul Harvesting to collect soul power continuously..

 Chapter 142 - Losing Half of the Battle?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Has it started?¡±


    ¡°It should be starting soon! Right! Do you know why the next Sect Leader will be decided on the spot?¡±


    ¡°This¡­ I¡¯m not too sure either! But the purpose of today¡¯s battle should be to target Zhou Feng.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The next day, almost everyone in the blessed land gathered at the Life-Death Arena.


    Apart from the upcoming round of battles, another very important point was the date of deciding the next Sect Leader.


    In fact, the sect had already discussed it for a long time regarding the next Sect Leader.


    Firstly, the current Sect Leader was already very old.


    Secondly, the current Sect Leader could no longer suppress all the other Elders.


    The Sect Leader of the Tri-Gu Sect should be able to suppress all the other Elders on their own. Only in this way could they be qualified to be the Sect Leader of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Only then would one be able to make the other Elders obediently hand over half of their resources without doing anything.


    That¡¯s right!


    The Sect Leader of the Tri-Gu Sect didn¡¯t need to do anything on a daily basis, but all the resources of the sect had to be split in half.


    The Sect Leader only needed to intimidate the top experts of the other sects.


    If it were any other time, the other Elders, including Old Demon Gu, wouldn¡¯t dare to defy the Sect Leader.


    Unfortunately, the current Sect Leader was injured, and it wasn¡¯t light.


    After a long time of probing, the other Elders realized that the Sect Leader was really not going to make it.


    Thus, this situation happened.


    One had to know that the Sect Leader of the Tri-Gu Sect hadn¡¯t had to undergo any selection in the past and was appointed directly.


    Or rather, it was the Leng family¡¯s throne. The Leng family had held the position of the Sect Leader of the Tri-Gu Sect for a long time.


    But now, there were very few talented individuals in the Leng family, except for Leng Maner.


    No one had the talent for cultivation.


    The Leng family, which had declined so much, would naturally be forced to submit.


    At the same time, the decline of the Leng family also represented the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s decline.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was currently engaged in an endless war with the Voodoo Cult, and they even forced a group of Elders to leave the sect.


    This was something that had never happened in the past.


    ¡°Oh right! Do you know who will be the first to enter the arena? This is a good opportunity to show off!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know! But the first person to enter the arena shouldn¡¯t be very strong, so the main event should be at the back.¡±


    ¡°This Zhou Feng will be in big trouble. He might be humiliated by Gong Jiu and Ye Zai in the end!¡±


    ¡°Serves him right! Does he deserve to be Eldest Senior Sister¡¯s husband?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The scene was lively, and the person everyone was talking about the most was naturally Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng had been in the limelight in the blessed land recently.


    If one put aside the fact that he had become Leng Maner¡¯s husband, most people admired Zhou Feng very much.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s growth experience was simply an inspirational story¡ªa refugee being captured and sent to the Gu Refinement Cave.


    His cultivation was like riding a rocket, rising crazily from the outer sect to the inner sect, and then entering the blessed land.


    His aptitude was obviously not that great, and he did not have any backers. He relied on his vicious nature to forcefully reach this step.


    They even suspected that he had a spiritual artifact; such an experience could be called legendary.


    This was an excellent example for those disciples with no background.


    It was a pity, though.


    If Zhou Feng could have taken advantage of the situation and endured it for a period without being so arrogant and high-profile, perhaps he would have been able to make a big comeback.


    But now, Zhou Feng had no chance at all.


    It was said that after the Penta-Poison Elders learned what Zhou Feng had done on Penta-Poison Peak, they blacklisted Zhou Feng and wanted to throw him into the poison pool.


    Zhou Feng had almost slaughtered all the Penta-Poison disciples, so they regarded him as their mortal enemy.


    If it weren¡¯t for the Sect Leader¡¯s faction protecting Zhou Feng, perhaps the people of Penta-Poison Peak would have already come looking for him.


    ¡°They¡¯re coming! They¡¯re coming! Someone¡¯s coming to the arena!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s the people of Penta-Poison Peak!¡±


    ¡°Indeed, it¡¯s the people of Penta-Poison Peak. After all, they¡¯re mortal enemies!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At that moment, a man walked onto the stage. He was dressed in violet robes, and his hair, nails, and lips were all dark violet in color.


    Not a single sound could be heard from the moment he stepped onto the stage. He just stood there quietly, like a scorpion that had gone into hiding.


    Even though they were quite a distance away, everyone could sense a cold, sinister aura emanating from his body.


    ¡°Penta-Poison Peak¡¯s Wei Ling?¡±


    ¡°Poison Young Master Wei Ling?¡±


    ¡°It should be him. Hasn¡¯t this person been in seclusion for a long time because he failed to break through to the Purple Mansion realm?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As soon as Wei Ling stepped onto the stage, someone recognized him.


    This person¡¯s name was Wei Ling, and he was born on Penta-Poison Peak. A few years ago, he was also a famous person.


    Unfortunately, he had failed to break through to the Purple Mansion realm and lost most of his cultivation, gradually fading out of everyone¡¯s sight.


    Who would have thought that the first person to step onto the arena would be him?


    Legend had it that after Wei Ling lost more than half of his cultivation, he devoted himself to researching and cultivating Gus. Nobody knew how much strength he had left.


    ¡°As long as you can kill Zhou Feng! Then this Serendipitous Origin Fruit is yours!¡±


    Wei Ling¡¯s ears kept ringing with these words.


    As long as he obtained this Serendipitous Origin Fruit, his injuries would be completely healed, and he would be able to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    That¡¯s right! Wei Ling had come out of the mountain this time because someone had promised him that fruit.


    As long as he killed Zhou Feng, he would be able to obtain a Serendipitous Origin Fruit.


    This Serendipitous Origin Fruit was a first-class treasure. It could restore a person¡¯s life force, and it would be able to heal almost any injury.


    Even if it was the damage to one¡¯s soul caused by a failed breakthrough, it would still be helpful.


    However, this kind of thing was too rare, and one would only chance upon them in some mystic realms.


    Not long ago, the Tetra-Symbol Mystic Realm had opened, and someone in the sect had collected the Serendipitous Origin Fruit.


    It was precisely because of this that Wei Ling¡¯s heart was rekindled with hope.


    ¡®Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm, astonishing defense, can ignore poison, and might possess a spiritual artifact¡­¡¯ Wei Ling read out the information regarding Zhou Feng in his heart.


    Many people had completely analyzed Zhou Feng, his trump cards, battle habits, and attack means, everything!


    Even the fact that Zhou Feng was immune to poison.


    There was no other way!


    Zhou Feng had overexposed his abilities and battle style in the various battles before.


    It wasn¡¯t the style of these sect elites to recklessly fight head-on.


    The best strategy was to target the enemy¡¯s weaknesses.


    Behind these elite disciples, there were people who collected all kinds of information and people who specialized in intel analysis.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, was completely ignorant of these people. He didn¡¯t know what cards, abilities, or fighting style they had.


    Zhou Feng had already lost half of the battle before it had even begun.


    This was also why it was said that the path of cultivation was really too difficult without a background.


    Some things could not be made up solely by talent and hard work.


    No matter how good one¡¯s talent was or how hard one worked, they could not compete with those people.


    These people had better talent, were more diligent than you, and had countless guardians behind them..

 Chapter 143 - Gong Jiu and Ye Zai

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Gong Jiu is here! Ye Zai is behind him!¡±


    Wei Ling¡¯s appearance on the stage sounded like a bugle call as the geniuses in the blessed land appeared one after another.


    The two that attracted the most attention were naturally Gong Jiu and Ye Zai.


    This was because these two should be the two most outstanding geniuses in the Tri-Gu Sect. The others were not even worthy of being compared to these two.


    Gong Jiu looked like a handsome youth from afar, wearing a Daoist robe of the nine temples and eight trigrams.


    That indifferent expression of his gave people an extraordinary feeling, like a god of beauty, his clothes fluttering, as if he was an immortal.


    Behind him was a group of people. He was like a big boss on a trip with a group of underlings.


    Speaking of which, Gong Jiu was the only person in the Tri-Gu Sect who was so high-profile.


    But this person was worthy of such a lineup. He had cultivated since he was young and had stayed at almost every realm for a long time.


    Almost every realm was perfectly polished and advanced. He had also used a special method to forge a top-grade Soul Altar.


    At the same time, he had countless Gus supporting his cultivation.


    It was said that although Gong Jiu had not broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, he had the strength close to the Purple Mansion realm.


    There were also a few Elders backing Gong Jiu.


    If nothing unexpected happened, the Sect Leader position was almost in Gong Jiu¡¯s pocket.


    No matter how strong the Leng family was, they still needed to show some respect when facing such a monster.


    After all, the Leng family was already on the decline, and it had been a long time since a genius had appeared in the family.


    The older generation would definitely not be able to last past the young and strong Gong Jiu.


    However, Gong Jiu, who was suppressing the younger generation of the Tri-Gu Sect like the great sun, had his limelight stolen by a single person.


    This person was Ye Zai, who was publicly acknowledged as the number one genius in the main sect.


    ¡°Ye Zai is still as easygoing as ever!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    Compared to the huge Gong Jiu, Ye Zai appeared to be very low-key.


    A middle-aged man with an extremely aged appearance slowly walked toward the arena with a wine gourd in his hand.


    His serious expression betrayed a tinge of worry that could not be dispelled, and an aura that had experienced the vicissitudes of life assaulted his face.


    That¡¯s right!


    This person who looked like a middle-aged man was the number one genius of the Tri-Gu Sect, Ye Zai.


    Don¡¯t look at his aged appearance; this person was extremely young in reality.


    His cultivation aptitude was terrifying as he had broken through to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm in a short period.


    Moreover, Ye Zai¡¯s Vital Gu was a variant, the Dragonblood Gu. It was a special variant Gu, and only Ye Zai possessed it in the entire sect.


    And it was precisely because of this Dragonblood Gu that Ye Zai directly suppressed Gong Jiu, creating an illustrious reputation for the sect.


    In the end, he became the disciple of one of the Elders until he became the hot candidate for the Sect Leader position.


    ¡°Eh? Everyone seems to be here. Where is today¡¯s main character?¡±


    With the arrival of Gong Jiu and Ye Zai, many people realized that the main character today had not arrived yet.


    No matter what, Zhou Feng was the main character for the first half of today¡¯s battles. Why hadn¡¯t the main character appeared yet?


    ¡°Oh right! Where is Eldest Senior Sister? Is Eldest Senior Sister missing too?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! Eldest Senior Sister probably won¡¯t appear anymore!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t appeared for a long time, so some of the spectators were already starting to get impatient.


    Zhou Feng was currently slowly heading toward the Life-Death Arena.


    Hadn¡¯t Leng Maner asked him to try his best to stall for time?


    Therefore, he deliberately walked slowly and didn¡¯t use his spiritual power. He only relied on his physical body to slowly walk toward the arena.


    Suddenly, a black shadow appeared beside Zhou Feng and said in a gloomy tone, ¡°You will only make yourself more embarrassed if you delay time like this!¡±


    Obviously, this person was urging Zhou Feng to walk faster.


    Today¡¯s highlight was not Zhou Feng¡¯s battle of attrition.


    In fact, the main event was so attractive that many people got out of seclusion and gathered to watch together.


    Naturally, the most important event was the duel between Ye Zai and Gong Jiu.


    Although Ye Zai was called the No.1 genius, he and Gong Jiu hadn¡¯t fought seriously. They had just exchanged a few attacks, measuring each other.


    The battle between Ye Zai and Gong Jiu today would decide who would become the next Sect Leader.


    Zhou Feng is just an appetizer.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng seemed not to have heard what that person said at all. He simply touched his nose.


    ¡®Is he threatening me?¡¯


    To be honest, he was not afraid of being threatened by others.


    Perhaps others would fall for this trick, but Zhou Feng would not.


    The person who threatened him was 100% his enemy.


    If that was the case, why would he listen to his enemy? Wouldn¡¯t he be targeted if he listened to the man?


    That was obviously impossible!


    Zhou Feng had always had his own understanding of certain things.


    ¡°You!¡±


    When the person beside him saw Zhou Feng completely ignoring him, his anger immediately rose.


    ¡®Does this person really think he is Ye Zai? Does he take me for a nobody!?¡¯


    When he thought that his master would blame him, this person wanted to make a move and forcefully bring Zhou Feng to the Life-Death Arena.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death¡ª¡±


    This person did not expect that Zhou Feng would act even faster than him.


    The moment Zhou Feng sensed that trace of killing intent, he immediately used the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art!


    The violent Blood Qi was crazily burned, while the surrounding Spiritual Qi was restrained within Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    In an instant, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was like a roller coaster, soaring into the sky.


    He threw one punch, and that person turned into a cloud of blood mist!


    He had been blown up alive!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s violent attack was unstoppable under the simultaneous explosion of the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art, coupled with the passive Aura Blade¡¯s effect.


    If one didn¡¯t guard against Zhou Feng¡¯s violent attack, even a Grade-1 Soul Altar realm would suffer a great loss. Not to mention that the person who wanted to attack Zhou Feng was only a Grade-2 Soul Altar small fry.


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    The skill panel showed that the passive Soul Harvesting had been triggered.


    He had obtained a strand of soul power, which made up for the intense consumption from before.


    The only pity was that the passive Aura Blade¡¯s stored energy had been wasted on that person.


    Aura Blade: Your first attack will consume accumulated aura. For every consumed wisp of aura, the damage will be increased by 1%. You can accumulate 20 wisps of aura per day. The maximum accumulation is five days.


    He had spent a lot of free time accumulating some aura, but now he had completely depleted it.


    Still, this did not matter. Anyway, what Zhou Feng wanted to do today was to stall.


    ¡®But this blood¡­ Forget it! Let¡¯s just leave it at that!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the splattered blood on his body. He did not plan to change his clothes and just walked over.


    Actually, during the process of walking, he had been pondering over one question.


    That was, when would he escape from the Tri-Gu Sect? Would this be a great opportunity?


    After all, almost all the Elders were away from the sect.


    At present, Zhou Feng only needed to hide from the sect¡¯s great formation, and he could actually escape. As for whether he could escape from the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s pursuit, this was also a problem that needed to be considered.


    Zhou Feng was certain of one thing¡ªit was too dangerous to continue staying in the Tri-Gu Sect!

 Chapter 144 - Gong Jiu Entered the Stage!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The thought of leaving the Tri-Gu Sect had been in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind for a long time, but he had never been able to do so because of various reasons.


    Previously, he had chosen to stay because he wanted to obtain information about breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Now, he had already obtained information about breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm, so there was nothing that Zhou Feng would miss.


    The only problem was, how could he avoid the detection of the sect¡¯s grand formation?


    The sect¡¯s grand formation covered the entire Mount Gu, so if anyone wanted to leave the sect¡­ they would basically trigger the grand formation.


    That was unless they could get a token or something and leave the sect under another name.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng was being watched by countless people right now, so it wouldn¡¯t be so easy to sneak away.


    ¡°Sorry for the trouble!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what to do next. He seemed to have walked into a dead end.


    ¡°He¡¯s here!? That¡¯s Zhou Feng?¡±


    ¡°Eldest Senior Sister chose him? He doesn¡¯t look so good.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s Zhou Feng?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As soon as Zhou Feng walked to the Life-Death Arena, someone recognized him.


    To be honest, compared to Ye Zai and Gong Jiu, Zhou Feng looked a little ordinary.


    From afar, he looked a little wooden. He looked a little sloppy because he didn¡¯t take care of himself.


    There were still some bloodstains on his body. How could such a person be worthy of the peerless Eldest Senior Sister?


    What a joke!


    However, as Zhou Feng slowly walked closer, a pungent smell of blood entered everyone¡¯s nose.


    Only then did someone remember that the person in front of them was a real madman.


    From the Gu Refinement Cave to becoming Eldest Senior Sister¡¯s husband, he had fought their way up.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s experiences showcased that he was a ruthless person.


    However, this ruthless person would probably die here today.


    ¡°Zhou Feng?¡±


    Ye Zai looked at him lightly, then picked up the wine gourd.


    Gong Jiu stared at him indifferently.


    ¡°He¡¯s finally here!¡±


    Wei Ling, who had been waiting in the center of the arena for a while, looked at Zhou Feng with burning eyes.


    To Wei Ling, Zhou Feng was like a walking Serendipitous Origin Fruit.


    As long as he killed this person, his injuries would be healed.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt countless gazes on him.


    More than half of them contained malice, and the killing intent was almost completely unconcealed.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng walked onto the stage, and Wei Ling couldn¡¯t wait to make his move.


    This so-called battle of attrition didn¡¯t have so many rules, and there were no referees.


    There was also no such thing as a sneak attack.


    The only thing Zhou Feng could do today was to stand on this stage or die on the stage.


    This was something that everyone in the blessed land agreed on.


    A purple jade scorpion appeared behind Zhou Feng.


    This was a special Gu, a variant that Wei Ling had nurtured.


    This purple jade scorpion was not poisonous, but its stinger was very sharp.


    As long as the stinger hit, a huge wound would appear.


    At the same time, the stinger would secrete a substance that would make it difficult for the wound to heal.


    It was obvious that this was an immune toxin aimed at Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was expressionless. Such a simple sneak attack would not be able to hit him at all.


    He did not even need his Battle Instinct to warn him. He only relied on his super-strong senses to stop this sneak attack.


    ¡®The sunlight today is really good!¡¯


    Zhou Feng raised his head to look at the sky and realized that the sun was shining down.


    One had to know that he had just obtained the passive Daylight Combat. His speed would increase by 10 points under the sunlight.


    ¡°Blood Mosquitoes!¡±


    Wei Ling took out another jar, seeing that the sneak attack had failed.


    Immediately, the entire arena was covered by a dense mass of mosquitoes.


    These were the vicious Blood Mosquito Gus, which appeared in groups.


    They would eat their enemies alive, and their huge proboscides would bite into a small piece of meat.


    After releasing the Blood Mosquito Gus, Wei Ling did not stop.


    Instead, he took out even more bottles and jars.


    Wei Ling had lost more than half of his cultivation, so he had put all his energy into raising Gus in recent years.


    Thus, Wei Ling¡¯s battle strength basically depended on these Gus.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Wei Ling to be able to recover after failing to break through!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Even if these Gus can¡¯t take down Zhou Feng, they are best used to expend stamina and Spiritual Qi!¡±


    ¡°This Wei Ling is really here to be cannon fodder!¡±


    The sky full of Blood Mosquito Gus coupled with the Gus that would sneak attack from behind from time to time was really annoying.


    However, most people did not think that Wei Ling could win against Zhou Feng. After all, although these Gus were annoying, Zhou Feng was still a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    As long as he was willing to pay the price, getting rid of these Gus was not a problem at all.


    Thus, Wei Ling basically had no chance of defeating Zhou Feng.


    As for that Serendipitous Origin Fruit, it was also impossible for him to get it in his lifetime.


    Wei Ling himself was very clear about this, but he still wanted to fight for it even if there was a slight chance.


    What If? What if he won?


    With this belief, Wei Ling crazily manipulated all sorts of Gus to wear down Zhou Feng¡¯s stamina.


    As for Zhou Feng, he had no intention of taking the initiative to attack.


    He would only dodge from time to time, and sometimes he would even be bitten by the Blood Mosquito Gus that filled the sky.


    Unfortunately, these Blood Mosquito Gus could not even break through their defenses, which had been enhanced by the passive Old Skin and Reinforced Iron Bones.


    Gradually, everyone began to feel that something was not right.


    Why was it¡­ a stalemate?


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Why is Zhou Feng defending? Why isn¡¯t he attacking?¡±


    ¡°Is he stalling for time?¡±


    ¡°Huh? Stalling for time? Isn¡¯t this wasting his stamina the longer they drag this out? This is a battle of attrition!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Some people immediately noticed that Zhou Feng was stalling for time.


    But this was a battle of attrition! Was there something wrong with Zhou Feng¡¯s brain this time?


    Stalling for time in a battle of attrition was wasting his energy.


    Zhou Feng still had countless opponents behind him. Wouldn¡¯t the longer he dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for him?


    ¡°Dead?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! There¡¯s not even a complete corpse!¡±


    Gong Jiu frowned. He had just learned that Zhou Feng had killed one of his subordinates. And it was a miserable death at that. There wasn¡¯t even a complete corpse left.


    ¡°It seems that some people won¡¯t shed tears until they see the coffin!¡±


    Gong Jiu slowly removed his Daoist robe.


    Then, a ray of light flashed.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    At that moment, the entire sky seemed to have collapsed as a palm descended from the sky.


    This palm killed Wei Ling on the stage, along with his Gus.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, dodged this attack with extreme agility.


    Everyone looked closely as the immortal-like Gong Jiu floated on the stage.


    Wei Ling, on the other hand, collapsed on the stage with an unwilling expression..

 Chapter 145 - You Are Far From My Match!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Gong Jiu was floating in the arena, looking down at Zhou Feng.


    He looked like a banished immortal who had descended to the mortal world from the Nine Heavens with his black hair fluttering in the wind.


    His temperament and aura made people feel that they mustn¡¯t look at him directly.


    ¡°As expected, he still couldn¡¯t help it.¡±


    ¡°What a pity!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing Gong Jiu suddenly go on stage, the spectators were shocked.


    No one had expected Gong Jiu to go on stage directly. It was obvious that he was already a little impatient.


    If no one else intervened, Wei Ling and Zhou Feng would probably be entangled for a very long time.


    After all, Zhou Feng was only defending and didn¡¯t take the initiative to attack. This would at least exhaust one side until their strength was depleted before they could stop.


    In the eyes of others, Zhou Feng¡¯s method of stalling for time was simply too low-level.


    After stalling for so long, Zhou Feng himself should have consumed most of his energy.


    Although he was stalling for time, what about the next match?


    It was precisely because of this that even if someone were a little impatient, they would still wait patiently.


    However, Gong Jiu didn¡¯t have the patience to continue watching Zhou Feng¡¯s performance.


    It was better to deal with such a clown as quickly as possible.


    In Gong Jiu¡¯s heart, no one present was worthy of his attention.


    Apart from Ye Zai, even Leng Maner was only half a clown.


    Gong Jiu had his hands behind his back, his black hair fluttering in the wind. His gaze was captivating, and he looked down from above, giving everyone present a powerful pressure.


    ¡°Do you know? You were able to bounce around for so long because I didn¡¯t want to waste my energy on trash like you!¡±


    Gong Jiu¡¯s tone was extremely flat, without the slightest fluctuation, as if he was merely stating a fact.


    Zhou Feng glanced at Wei Ling, who had died with his eyes wide open, without any expression on his face.


    He didn¡¯t even say a single word. He knew that Gong Jiu was definitely going to spout nonsense again.


    ¡°Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm? Ha!¡±


    Looking at the silent Zhou Feng, Gong Jiu smiled contemptuously.


    His right hand slowly opened, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi seemed to be pulled by something.


    A mysterious large palm was condensed from Spiritual Qi and looked very lifelike. It even had fingerprints and palm lines.


    Moreover, the entire process was very slow, making it obvious that he looked down on Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Too terrifying! Even though they are both Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivators, this kind of difference in strength¡­¡±


    ¡°He can already borrow the power of the heavens and earth? What kind of talent is this?¡±


    ¡°As expected, only Ye Zai can fight against Gong Jiu!¡±


    Feeling the power of heaven and earth, many people experienced Gong Jiu¡¯s terrifying strength.


    As both were Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivators, the strength that Gong Jiu could display was like the difference between heaven and the earth compared to others.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that he wanted to achieve a perfect breakthrough, Gong Jiu would probably have already broken through to the Purple Mansion realm!


    ¡®Idiot!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at Gong Jiu, who was slowly forming a large palm and gave a one-word evaluation in his heart.


    Then, Zhou Feng moved!


    He left the arena and jumped into the distance to dodge the terrifying large palm.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Gong Jiu looked at Zhou Feng, who had left the arena, and frowned.


    The terrifying palm instantly condensed into a small handprint.


    Zhou Feng had foreseen the position of this handprint and evaded Gong Jiu¡¯s attack with a slight movement.


    He effortlessly evaded with the help of his Battle Instinct and insane perception.


    After evading, he returned to the stage.


    ¡°He dodged it?¡±


    ¡°What a quick reaction! I didn¡¯t even see what happened just now!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Looking at the unharmed Zhou Feng, many people were very surprised. They didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be able to withstand that move.


    After all, that move was enough to kill most of the people present instantly.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng almost didn¡¯t manage to evade in time.


    That big palm print actually had a locking function, and it kept pulling his body along the way.


    If he didn¡¯t rely on the passive Daylight Combat¡¯s speed boost, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to break free from that pulling force.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Gong Jiu seemed to be a little surprised as well. He didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be able to escape.


    This was simply an insult to him.


    An invisible killing intent began to spread. Gong Jiu was like a sharp blade that had been unsheathed, and that sharp aura made everyone¡¯s skin tingle.


    A huge palm condensed again, and at the same time, the entire arena was enveloped by an invisible aura.


    It wasn¡¯t as simple as before for Zhou Feng to leave the arena now because that invisible aura seemed to have formed a cage.


    ¡°Demon-Devouring Battle Art!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to dodge anymore, and the Demonic Qi in his body completely exploded.


    A strange demonic avatar danced wildly behind him, and the Demonic Qi condensed into a fist.


    And then¡­


    Zhou Feng used the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art!


    His Blood Qi was ignited, while the Spiritual Qi was restrained in his body!


    This time, Gong Jiu and Zhou Feng fought head-on.


    The moment the palms and fists collided, a storm was formed.


    The surrounding space seemed to have been shaken.


    Evenly matched!?


    The collision just now was actually evenly matched?


    Countless people¡¯s jaws drop.


    In their minds, Zhou Feng should have been crushed.


    Gong Jiu seemed infuriated, and each punch and palm contained endless power.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t show any signs of weakness as violent and chaotic Demonic Qi kept surging.


    ¡°What secret technique did he use? He can actually directly confront Gong Jiu?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art!¡±


    ¡°So that¡¯s what he used! No wonder¡­ Zhou Feng won¡¯t be able to hold on for long!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Soon, someone recognized what Zhou Feng was using. They were trump cards that should be used when one was desperate.


    It seemed more acceptable to rely on these self-harming trump cards in exchange for a short period to be on par with Gong Jiu.


    ¡°I take back what I said earlier! Your strength is enough for me to go all out!¡±


    Suddenly, Gong Jiu stopped and spoke to Zhou Feng again.


    Obviously, the strength that he had just displayed made Gong Jiu think that his judgment had been a little wrong.


    ¡°But! You are far from being my match!¡±


    The killing intent in Gong Jiu¡¯s eyes intensified.


    A ray of multicolored light draped over Gong Jiu¡¯s body like clothes, making him look high and mighty, like an immortal.


    The big hand stretched forward!


    Endless Spiritual Qi circulated crazily, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi began to distort.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was as calm as ever as a noble big bell appeared above his head.


    Gong Jiu¡¯s large hand slammed against the Purple Jade Bell.


    The Purple Jade Bell instantly let out a loud boom, and the soundwave was like a tidal wave.


    Just the aftershock from the collision had caused countless cracks to appear in the arena..

 Chapter 146 - I Admit That I Have Underestimated You

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°This is a spiritual artifact?¡±


    ¡°Zhou Feng really has a spiritual artifact!?¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Many people¡¯s eyes instantly burned with greed as they noticed the purple light emitting from the Purple Jade Bell.


    This was actually a spiritual artifact! And this grade didn¡¯t seem to be low!


    Although it was only a low-grade spiritual artifact right now, it still had room for advancement.


    Compared to ordinary low-grade spiritual artifacts, it was completely different.


    There had been a rumor in the blessed land that Zhou Feng possessed a spiritual artifact, and many people thought that it was just a rumor.


    After all, spiritual artifacts were too rare. In the entire blessed land, only one person possessed a spiritual artifact.


    However, they never expected that Zhou Feng actually possessed a spiritual artifact.


    While everyone was amazed, the battle in the arena was not over yet.


    After Zhou Feng¡¯s Purple Jade Bell blocked Gong Jiu¡¯s powerful attack, a ray of light descended from the sky.


    ¡°Spiritual weapon? I have one too!¡±


    Gong Jiu was wearing a five-colored Daoist robe, and the material it was made of didn¡¯t look ordinary at all.


    It looked like a Daoist robe made of five-colored light and endless light spread out in all directions.


    That¡¯s right!


    Gong Jiu also had a spiritual weapon, and this spiritual weapon was called the Five-Colored Daoist Robe. It was made of five different kinds of multicolored light woven into threads.


    Once he wore this Five-Colored Daoist Robe, Gong Jiu¡¯s ability to control the power of heaven and earth increased again.


    A dao sword had appeared in Gong Jiu¡¯s hand at some point in time.


    ¡°Is this for real?¡±


    ¡°It should be! You should know that Gong Jiu only has Ye Zai as his opponent. He must be unhappy that he couldn¡¯t take down Zhou Feng after so long!¡±


    ¡°To be honest, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength is abnormal! Moreover, he has a spiritual artifact with him. If not¡­¡±


    Many people were shocked by Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    They originally thought that Zhou Feng, who had jumped so many realms within half a year, would definitely be killed instantly if he met Gong Jiu.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess was astonishing.


    Why was it that almost no one thought highly of Zhou Feng before this? One of the most important points was that Zhou Feng¡¯s advancement speed was too fast.


    It hadn¡¯t even been a year since he officially cultivated to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm.


    It was impossible to achieve this kind of cultivation speed unless one walked the unorthodox path.


    And walking the unorthodox path also meant that there were many hidden dangers. His battle prowess should be slightly inferior compared to the normal advancement speed.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have anyone to teach him. He had always cultivated by himself. This kind of experience was practically similar to those vagabond cultivators outside.


    Naturally, no one was optimistic about this situation.


    But now, even Gong Jiu wasn¡¯t able to take down Zhou Feng in the first place.


    Such talent! Such talent! What a waste!


    ¡°Zhou Feng¡­¡±


    As the No.1 genius of the Tri-Gu Sect, Ye Zai was also paying full attention to the battle between Zhou Feng and Gong Jiu.


    Obviously, Zhou Feng was now qualified for Ye Zai to remember his name.


    The dao sword in Gong Jiu¡¯s hand moved like a bolt of lightning.


    That strange speed even managed to bypass the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s curtain of light.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s pupils constricted slightly, and the Blood Qi in his body burned even more fiercely.


    He didn¡¯t even think about it and evaded completely based on instinct.


    The dao sword condensed from the multicolored light pierced through his shoulder, and bright blood dripped onto the ground like plum blossoms.


    This was Gong Jiu¡¯s signature move, and almost no one could dodge the multicolored dao sword.


    Gong Jiu had relied on this move to kill countless geniuses.


    But this time, Zhou Feng was able to dodge the fatal attack! Such speed! It was truly unbelievable!


    ¡°Almost! Almost dodged it again!¡± someone exclaimed again.


    What happened next shocked everyone even more.


    The wound that was pierced by the multicolored dao sword was actually recovering at speed visible to the naked eye.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s face was a little pale due to the excessive burning of his Blood Qi. However, his expressionless face seemed to say that he still had some strength left.


    His various passive skills were being triggered crazily.


    The Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art wreaked havoc on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Although he appeared to be fine on the surface, his injuries were already quite serious.


    All of this was caused by the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art.


    However, it was precisely because of these injuries that the Unyielding Heart was triggered. The greater the injury, the faster his recovery speed would be.


    At the same time, it also triggered the Injury Conversion. All these injuries were converted into offensive power.


    Gong Jiu¡¯s attack ended. This time, it was Zhou Feng¡¯s turn.


    The Purple Jade Bell hovering over the silent Zhou Feng¡¯s head shook crazily.


    A huge, pitch-black fist condensed.


    Gong Jiu¡¯s face seemed to turn ugly when he saw that Zhou Feng actually dared to initiate an attack.


    But he didn¡¯t say anything and guarded against it!


    A booming sound echoed as the two spiritual artifacts collided.


    It was like a clap of thunder, shaking the mountain peak. The five-colored light and the noble purple light surged in all directions like a tidal wave.


    The violent airwaves spread out directly.


    The onlookers were affected and had no choice but to retreat.


    The intensity of the battle was far more intense than they had imagined.


    No one had imagined that something like this would take place during Gong Jiu and Zhou Feng¡¯s battle.


    These two people were actually equally powerful!?


    Although this was only temporary, and Gong Jiu still had many trump cards that he hadn¡¯t shown, it was enough to make everyone¡¯s jaws drop.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were burning as he charged forward, his pitch-black fist dancing in the air like a ball of strange flames.


    Armor-Piercing Spear!


    Triggered!


    This punch bypassed Gong Jiu¡¯s multicolored robe¡¯s defenses and landed on Gong Jiu¡¯s face!


    Gong Jiu¡¯s head was tilted from the punch.


    Although the Armor-Piercing Spear could only penetrate the opponent¡¯s defenses and cause 1% damage, this kind of damage was not even considered a light injury for Gong Jiu.


    However, the surroundings immediately became silent.


    ¡°It can¡¯t be!¡±


    ¡°Stay far away! Hurry up and stay far away!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Some people swallowed their saliva and moved away.


    Gong Jiu was about to lose his temper!


    Given Gong Jiu¡¯s temper, Zhou Feng definitely couldn¡¯t survive.


    Reputation and appearance were very important to Gong Jiu.


    Even in such an intense battle, Gong Jiu still maintained the appearance of a banished immortal, his every move being extremely natural.


    But Zhou Feng¡¯s move made everyone see Gong Jiu¡¯s sorry state.


    As expected! A ball of anger gathered in Gong Jiu¡¯s eyes.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death! I admit that you have some strength. I underestimated you before!


    ¡°From now on! I¡¯ll give it my all! Then, I¡¯ll slowly break your bones!¡±


    The seal on Gong Jiu¡¯s body seemed to have been broken.


    The ethereal aura from before completely disappeared, and a violent and crazy aura replaced it.


    The Five-Colored Daoist Robe that was filled with Immortal Qi had also turned into a set of battle armor.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt an ominous and bloody aura.


    This feeling was as if he was on an ancient battlefield!

 Chapter 147 - Know How to Be Grateful

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Gong Jiu didn¡¯t want to drag this on any longer.


    Every second he dragged on was a great humiliation to him.


    Gong Jiu descended from the sky, his palms pressing down like a mountain.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to be outdone either, so he took the initiative to meet him.


    The two bodies collided.


    ¡°Dang!¡±


    The melee between Gong Jiu and Zhou Feng was like a battle between two giant steel statues.


    Every muffled sound struck the hearts of everyone.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was still slightly inferior. After a series of collisions, blood started to ooze out of Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth and nose.


    If it weren¡¯t for the passive Reinforced Iron Bones, which had allowed his bones to undergo a transformation, Zhou Feng¡¯s bones would probably have been shattered by now.


    Each of Gong Jiu¡¯s attacks carried an enormous force, which was transmitted directly to Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    A long howl echoed!


    The brilliance on Gong Jiu¡¯s body intensified, and the clouds in the sky were blasted away.


    At that moment, Gong Jiu was displaying to everyone what it meant to be a truly monstrous cultivator of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    His strength was already close to the Purple Mansion realm!


    Zhou Feng looked miserable. His body was heavily wounded, and blood covered his entire face.


    However, the more serious his injuries were, the fiercer his counterattack became.


    One punch!


    The violent Demonic Qi broke through Gong Jiu¡¯s defense.


    That strange power once again repelled Gong Jiu.


    It was unknown how many times this had happened. A small part of Zhou Feng¡¯s attack would break through Gong Jiu¡¯s defense each time.


    Even the Five-Colored Daoist Robe on his body couldn¡¯t defend against it.


    This was the result of the Armor-Piercing Spear¡¯s passive activation.


    Although Gong Jiu was much stronger than Zhou Feng, in the end, he was still in the Soul Altar realm.


    As long as they were in the same realm, the Armor-Piercing Spear would be able to play its role.


    ¡®Why!? What kind of power is this?¡¯


    They had been fighting for so long, but he still couldn¡¯t take down Zhou Feng, which made Gong Jiu¡¯s state of mind change.


    Zhou Feng looked very miserable, yet why didn¡¯t he fall?


    And what kind of strange method was this that could ignore his Five-Colored Daoist Robe and attack him directly?


    On the other side, Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to lose weight.


    Zhou Feng was still using the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art, so more than half his Blood Qi had been burned. His body was also in a bad state.


    If this continued, even if his Self-Healing Constitution worked with the other passive skills, he wouldn¡¯t be able to recover. His body was already close to the stage of drying up.


    ¡®It¡¯s about time!¡¯


    Zhou Feng summoned the medicine gourd from his Soul Altar.


    This medicine gourd was Pill Master Yuan¡¯s soul artifact, and he had been nurturing it on his Soul Altar.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had put almost all the spirit herbs in his storage ring into this medicine gourd.


    Now, these spirit herbs should have all turned into medicinal liquid.


    He picked up the medicine gourd and took a mouthful.


    The medicinal liquid of an unknown flavor was poured into his body, and he used Level-2 Gluttony to start digesting it.


    The medicinal liquid contained rich essence energy and Spiritual Qi.


    He passively digested the essence energy and Spiritual Qi through his Level-2 Gluttony.


    Zhou Feng was like a rusty robot that had been smeared with lubricating oil again.


    ¡°What¡¯s he drinking? How¡­¡±


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong! Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    ¡°He can still persist!? What about the side effects of using the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art?¡±


    Everyone who had been waiting for Zhou Feng¡¯s defeat was shocked upon seeing that he was once again full of vigor and vitality.


    What was going on? Why was Zhou Feng still able to persist? What was inside the gourd?


    ¡°What kind of constitution is this?¡± Ye Zai frowned slightly.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was very similar to a constitution. His injuries recovered swiftly, while his stamina was outstanding. Moreover, he was able to use all sorts of forbidden techniques at will, completely unafraid of any side effects.


    If a normal person tried to copy Zhou Feng, they would have died long ago.


    Therefore, Ye Zai started to speculate whether Zhou Feng had a special physique.


    The current Ye Zai had already fully acknowledged Zhou Feng¡¯s strength. Given this kind of strength and the protection of a spiritual artifact, it was almost impossible for Gong Jiu to take down Zhou Feng in a short period.


    Unless Gong Jiu was willing to reveal some of his trump cards and pay the price.


    ¡°As expected, people who can catch Maner¡¯s eye are really different. I still underestimated the people in the world!¡±


    Gong Jiu looked at Zhou Feng, who had become lively and vigorous once again, and then looked at the Purple Jade Bell hovering over his head. His expression returned to calmness.


    From disdain to slightly looking at him to finally admitting that he had underestimated the people in the world, Gong Jiu¡¯s mental journey was gradually being changed by Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    But in his heart, Zhou Feng was just trying to hang on. If he continued to fight, Gong Jiu would definitely win.


    In Gong Jiu¡¯s heart, his only opponent was Ye Zai.


    Gong Jiu didn¡¯t want to waste too much time and energy on Zhou Feng. He wanted to battle Ye Zai and establish the title as the sect¡¯s No.1 genius today.


    ¡°You have obtained my recognition! You can leave now! Today¡¯s main character is not you!¡±


    His tone was still high and mighty as if he was giving Zhou Feng alms.


    Gong Jiu¡¯s words implied that he had tacitly accepted Zhou Feng as Leng Maner¡¯s husband and would not pursue the matter further.


    Compared to a woman, Gong Jiu cared more about the Sect Leader position.


    As long as he became the Sect Leader, so what if Zhou Feng was Leng Maner¡¯s husband?


    Gong Jiu was more focused on Ye Zai.


    ¡®I should be able to continue fighting for a while!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt his injuries in his heart.


    After that short rest, his injuries had almost recovered. He could totally continue fighting now.


    Moreover, he discovered that his body seemed to be getting stronger and stronger during this high-intensity battle!


    Was this a passive trigger of Old Skin?


    As long as he recovered from his injuries, his defense would be able to increase.


    Zhou Feng was doubtful because he had recovered from previous injuries in the past, but Old Skin¡¯s passive response had not been noteworthy.


    This had made him think that Old Skin had reached its upper limit.


    But today, Zhou Feng realized that Old Skin¡¯s passivity was far from reaching the upper limit.


    He hadn¡¯t triggered it before because his injuries hadn¡¯t been severe enough.


    It seemed like Zhou Feng had to squeeze his body to the limit. Now that his injury had recovered, Old Skin had been triggered again.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng still wanted to use Gong Jiu to continue stimulating his body.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    With this thought in mind, Zhou Feng looked at Gong Jiu expressionlessly.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Upon noticing that Zhou Feng had no intention of leaving the arena, Gong Jiu¡¯s face sank again.


    In his heart, he had already given Zhou Feng a favor by letting him leave the arena now.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that he wanted to beat Ye Zai in front of everyone and snatch the position of the next Sect Leader, Zhou Feng would definitely have died in this arena.


    It was such a magnanimous act! Zhou Feng should know how to be grateful!


    Zhou Feng was actually not giving him face!


    Gong Jiu¡¯s anger that he had just suppressed rose up again..

 Chapter 148 - Too Sudden

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer and immediately made an exception.


    ¡°I¡¯ve been looking for death! You have been repeating the same sentence over and over again. Don¡¯t you have anything original to say?¡±


    He would never have opened his mouth to speak in a battle in the past.


    But this time, he really couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer.


    Gong Jiu had been repeating the same things. His trash-talking game was poor.


    ¡°Good! Very good!¡±


    Gong Jiu was infuriated. His chest rose and fell continuously, and a murderous aura gathered.


    It seemed that even if he had to reveal some of his trump cards today, he had to get rid of Zhou Feng. Otherwise, it would really be difficult to quell the anger in his heart.


    Ye Zai, who was below, was also very happy to see this scene. If Zhou Feng could force out some of Gong Jiu¡¯s trump cards, that would be the best.


    ¡°Crazy! He¡¯s simply crazy! Zhou Feng doesn¡¯t want to live anymore!?¡±


    ¡°He could have saved his own life! Has Zhou Feng gone crazy?¡±


    ¡°He actually took the initiative to provoke Gong Jiu?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng take the initiative to provoke Gong Jiu, the disciples watching from below the stage were dumbfounded.


    ¡®Big Brother! Do you think you can beat Gong Jiu? Wouldn¡¯t it be better if you just went down the stairs?¡¯


    Now that Gong Jiu was angered, everyone believed that Zhou Feng would be unable to survive.


    Even though the previous few times had been out of everyone¡¯s expectations, this time, they all firmly believed that Zhou Feng would definitely not survive.


    And just when everyone thought that Gong Jiu and Zhou Feng would continue fighting, a loud voice spread throughout the entire Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡°The Great Houngan has descended! Witness my eternal life!¡±


    ¡°The Great Houngan has descended! Witness my eternal life!¡±


    ¡°The Great Houngan has descended! Witness my eternal life!¡±


    Moreover, this voice gave people a bewitching feeling, and many disciples with lower cultivations were confused.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!? This voice is from the Voodoo Cult!?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! Where¡¯s the sect¡¯s grand formation? Why isn¡¯t there any reaction from the sect¡¯s grand formation?¡±


    ¡°The Voodoo Cult has barged into the sect?¡±


    ¡°How is this possible! Aren¡¯t the Elders negotiating with the Voodoo Cult¡¯s priests?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Upon hearing this familiar chant, quite a few people immediately began to panic.


    This was because those swindlers of the Voodoo Cult recited this chant, and the sect had recently had many conflicts with the Voodoo Cult.


    That bewitching voice was, at least, at the Purple Mansion realm.


    How could a cultivator of this level possibly enter the sect?


    Why didn¡¯t the sect¡¯s grand formation respond?


    ¡®Something¡¯s wrong! Something¡¯s wrong!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stood on end. His sharp senses were constantly telling him that a terrifying malevolent being was about to descend.


    The clear sky instantly darkened, and a deity statue directly smashed through the blessed land¡¯s formation.


    That terrifying aura was as boundless as the ocean, and its monstrous might made people want to kneel down and worship it.


    ¡®Run away!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t care about anything else and chose to run away.


    Logically speaking, the experts in the blessed land should have reacted due to the huge commotion. Especially the ones at the center of the blessed land, the island in the center of the lake.


    That was the place where the Sect Leader lived and rested.


    Zhou Feng had been staying at the edge of Lake Heart Island. He had never been to the center of Lake Heart Island.


    At present, Lake Heart Island was dead silent; only some servants were screaming.


    As for the Sect Leader and the experts, they were nowhere to be seen.


    ¡°Immortal-Killing Gu! Gong Jiu! And Ye Zai, who has a variant Dragonblood Gu!


    ¡°You are both here!¡±


    The statue¡¯s bronze bell-sized eyes locked onto Gong Jiu and Ye Zai.


    Evidently, Gong Jiu and Ye Zai were the most famous in the Tri-Gu Sect in terms of popularity.


    ¡®Immortal-Killing Gu Gu? Is this Gong Jiu¡¯s Vital Gu?¡¯


    At this time, Zhou Feng learned about Gong Jiu¡¯s Vital Gu.


    Immortal-Killing Gu? Why hadn¡¯t he heard of it before?


    Although he did not know what had happened, the Tri-Gu Sect was in trouble now.


    Moreover, there was a 100% chance that there was a mole.


    The Voodoo Cult¡¯s people shouldn¡¯t have been able to bypass the sect¡¯s grand formation and enter the sect¡¯s blessed land without the help of a high-level mole.


    Zhou Feng suddenly thought of someone.


    ¡®Leng Maner?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s intuition told him that this spy was most likely Leng Maner.


    Leng Maner¡¯s original plan was to let Zhou Feng stall as much as possible for her to break through.


    But now that the plan was ruined, the next Sect Leader would definitely be either Gong Jiu or Ye Zai.


    As a result, the Ice Spirit faction would lose the Sect Leader¡¯s throne.


    Zhou Feng had a special understanding of the history of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    For example, the Ice Spirit faction and the Sect Leader position.


    From the time the Tri-Gu Sect had been founded, the Ice Spirit faction had been holding the Sect Leader¡¯s position and never lost it.


    The Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction were more like slaves when the Tri-Gu Sect had been founded.


    The reason they were recruiting disciples was that they were supporting the Ice Spirit faction.


    Because of this, almost every generation of the Ice Spirit faction had a Divine Ability expert.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was considered to be very powerful back then, rampaging through this region of Southern Border.


    But in recent decades, the Ice Spirit faction had been declining, and Divine Ability experts had not appeared for a long time.


    They only had one Purple Mansion expert, and that was the current Sect Leader.


    It was also because of this that the other two factions began to take action.


    One had to know that the Bloodthirsty faction and the Penta-Poison faction now had a total of nine Elders.


    This meant that there were nine Purple Mansion cultivators.


    Of course, this was because the current Sect Leader was the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm, a half-step Divine Ability expert.


    Previously, the various Elders didn¡¯t dare to have any thoughts.


    Unfortunately, the current Sect Leader had been ambushed and heavily injured during their conflict with the Voodoo Cult.


    After that, given the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s current situation, the next Sect Leader could not be a member of the Ice Spirit faction.


    Under such circumstances, the Ice Spirit faction was actually in imminent danger.


    The Ice Spirit faction couldn¡¯t make a last stand, so the other two factions finally found an opportunity to kick the Ice Spirit faction off the Sect Leader¡¯s throne.


    Of course, they would not lead the wolf into the house.


    After thinking about it, only the Ice Spirit faction had such a motive.


    Anyway, to the Ice Spirit faction, the other two factions, as well as the Voodoo Cult, were tigers and wolves.


    It would be better to let them fight and watch them devour each other.


    If Zhou Feng guessed correctly, the Ice Spirit members had already moved.


    ¡®Doesn¡¯t this mean that the Tri-Gu Sect is going to disappear?¡¯


    Zhou Feng, who was hiding at the side, watched as the huge deity statue chased Gong Jiu and Ye Zai.


    If the Elders did not appear now, then the entire Tri-Gu Sect would be gone.


    This might be a good thing for Zhou Feng.


    This meant that the shackles of the Tri-Gu Sect were gone. Zhou Feng would not have to act like a madman and could slowly cultivate in the future, right?


    The disadvantages were that he would become a vagabond cultivator and the Voodoo Cult may pursue him.


    No matter what, he could be considered a Tri-Gu disciple. After the Voodoo Cult destroyed the Tri-Gu Sect, they would definitely not let go of the remaining Tri-Gu disciples.


    All of this happened too suddenly. Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what to do for a moment..

 Chapter 149 - Fishing in Troubled Waters

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At that moment, Ye Zai and Gong Jiu were being targeted by the deity statue of the Voodoo Cult.


    These two didn¡¯t dare to slack off in the slightest when facing the deity statue that possessed the strength of a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    They kept on using all sorts of methods, especially Gong Jiu.


    Compared to when Zhou Feng was battling, Gong Jiu¡¯s body was currently enveloped by all sorts of precious light.


    God knows how many top-grade soul artifacts were emitting light.


    Compared to Gong Jiu, Ye Zai was much shabbier and did not use any soul artifacts at all.


    His terrifying body was emitting a huge amount of Blood Qi while he was using all kinds of battle techniques.


    ¡°Run!¡±


    ¡°Go!¡±


    ¡°We can¡¯t stay here any longer!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After the sudden turn of events, the other Tri-Gu disciples naturally would not stay where they were.


    Almost none of them considered fighting against the invaders; they were all thinking about how to escape.


    Zhou Feng naturally wouldn¡¯t risk his life for the Tri-Gu Sect.


    He had been using the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art nonstop, so his entire body was much weaker.


    He could only take advantage of the chaos to leave the blessed land.


    Now, the entire blessed land was in a mess as the surrounding formation was destroyed.


    Just as he left the blessed land, Zhou Feng saw Tri-Gu disciples fighting with a group of people.


    ¡®These are¡­ people from White Bone Temple and Penta-Ghost Sect?¡¯


    He could tell at a glance that these were people from the White Bone Temple and Penta-Ghost Sect.


    Other than the Voodoo Cult, the White Bone Temple and Penta-Ghost Sect were also attacking the Tri-Gu Sect this time?


    The three sects must have been planning this for a long time, and there should definitely be a mole in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    It seemed that the Tri-Gu Sect was doomed this time.


    ¡®Is this the best opportunity?¡¯


    If he wanted to escape from the Tri-Gu Sect, this should be the best opportunity for Zhou Feng.


    The Tri-Gu disciples and higher-ups had no time to take care of themselves, and even the sect¡¯s grand formation had stopped working.


    The success rate of escaping from the Tri-Gu Sect was close to 90%.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had obtained the Purple Mansion realm breakthrough method from Leng Maner.


    It could be said that right now, the Tri-Gu Sect did not have anything that was worth his nostalgia.


    Zhou Feng was extremely curious about the method to use the Vital Gu.


    Ever since he had refined the Demon-Devouring Gu into his Vital Gu, the Demon-Devouring Gu seemed to have become a pendant.


    Other than being useful in some situations, it was useless in most situations.


    It was obvious that the Tri-Gu Sect had another trick up their sleeves.


    They had not taught their disciples how to merge man and Gu into one.


    It was always difficult whenever Zhou Feng wanted to use the Demon-Devouring Gu in a battle.


    But fighting alongside a Gu was the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s signature move, so he suspected that the Tri-Gu Sect had another trick up their sleeves.


    ¡®Now seems to be a good time to fish in troubled waters!¡¯


    He could use this opportunity to harvest more souls and increase the strength of his divine soul.


    Or it could be said that he could get more cultivation resources.


    After leaving the Tri-Gu Sect, Zhou Feng would become a vagabond cultivator.


    It should be common sense that vagabond cultivators lacked cultivation resources.


    Based on various considerations, as well as the adventurous spirit in Zhou Feng¡¯s bones, he decided to stay first and observe.


    ¡°Who dares to invade our Tri-Gu Sect!?¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to find a place to hide and recover his condition, a deep voice directly suppressed the deity statue of the Voodoo Cult.


    The Tri-Gu experts had finally reacted.


    Although the Tri-Gu Elders were not in the sect, it was impossible for such a large sect not to have any hidden Purple Mansion experts.


    Booming sounds kept coming from the horizon. It seemed that the Tri-Gu Purple Mansion experts were fighting with the deity statue of the Voodoo Cult.


    At this time, the Tri-Gu Sect seemed to have found its backbone.


    The ringing of bells continuously gathered the disciples of the sect.


    ¡°Haha! Your old bones aren¡¯t dead yet? Next, let us meet you!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! Today, your Tri-Gu Sect will definitely be exterminated!¡±


    Then, two voices entered everyone¡¯s ears again.


    For a moment, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and countless vengeful souls began to disperse, turning the surroundings into a ghostly domain.


    At the same time, an enormous skeleton appeared. The skeleton¡¯s body was like white jade, and its body was covered in a blood-red mist.


    A Purple Mansion expert from the Penta-Ghost Sect and one from the White Bone Temple joined the battle.


    The battle situation that had just stabilized suddenly lost its balance.


    Cries of slaughter, clashing sounds, and screams of agony filled the entire Tri-Gu Sect.


    Zhou Feng casually found a room and entered it to recover from his injuries first.


    His previous injuries had mostly recovered due to his passive skills.


    However, the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi he had consumed were not replenished.


    Therefore, he took out the medicine gourd again after entering the room. Then, he gulped down a few mouthfuls of it.


    The spiritual energy contained in the medicine liquid was quickly absorbed.


    ¡°There¡¯s someone in this room!¡±


    ¡°Hurry up and grab him!¡±


    Zhou Feng had only been able to relax for a few seconds when he heard a few noisy voices.


    These were the disciples of the Penta-Ghost Sect and the White Bone Temple.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not hesitate at all and used the Purple Jade Bell.


    The Purple Jade Bell shook slightly, and the people outside the door were instantly killed.


    The whole process did not take more than a second.


    The people outside the door went from being excited and shouting to being silent for only a second.


    This was complete suppression.


    ¡°Collection successful!¡±


    The passive Soul Harvesting was triggered!


    Zhou Feng felt another strand of soul power in his body.


    Before this, he would have thought that this strand of soul power was a lot.


    But right now, this bit of soul power was far from enough.


    At present, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power was simply too lacking. Other than the additional consumption of nourishing the Purple Jade Bell and feeding the Ice Heart Gu, advancing to the Purple Mansion realm also consumed a lot of soul power.


    He needed even more soul power, which meant that he had to kill even more people.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was also very glad that he had obtained the passive Soul Harvesting.


    As long as he killed a cultivator, he would have a chance to obtain strands of soul power.


    If he had relied on himself to accumulate it slowly, Zhou Feng would probably have remained a Grade-9 Soul Altar cultivator for the rest of his life.


    As for breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm? That was simply impossible.


    After resting for a while, Zhou Feng felt that his condition had recovered by 90%.


    ¡®It¡¯s time to hunt!¡¯


    He planned to start from the outer sect and slowly hunt down the Tri-Gu disciples who were alone. Of course, he would not let go of the Penta-Ghost Sect and White Bone Temple.


    In any case, there were almost no good people among the disciples of these sects, so he did not have to worry about killing them.


    Moreover, while he was killing them, Zhou Feng planned to find a way to escape from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Putting everything else aside, he had to find a way to escape in advance.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mind was still relatively clear.


    Given his strength, Zhou Feng believed that no one would be able to stop him as long as he did not encounter a Purple Mansion expert.


    Presumably, those Purple Mansion experts wouldn¡¯t pay attention to him, this little shrimp!

 Chapter 150 - Charging Out of the Tri-Gu Sect

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At that moment, the Tri-Gu Sect that dominated this area was in utter chaos.


    The Voodoo Cult, the Penta-Ghost Sect, and the White Bone Temple had lured away all the Tri-Gu Elders and then relied on the help of the mole to attack the Tri-Gu Sect in one fell swoop.


    At present, the Tri-Gu Sect only had one Purple Mansion expert guarding it, but the three forces had sent three Purple Mansion experts to invade.


    In order to preserve their strength, all the Tri-Gu disciples were shrinking towards the center.


    At this time, the Tri-Gu disciples also displayed astonishing strength.


    Compared to the disciples of the Voodoo Cult, the Penta-Ghost Sect, and the White Bone Temple, the Tri-Gu disciples all had higher cultivation levels, while their battle prowess was outstanding.


    When paired with all sorts of strange Gus, even when the three forces surrounded them, they were still resisting with all their might and did not show any signs of being defeated.


    As the Tri-Gu disciples began to shrink toward the center, Zhou Feng moved to the periphery of the Tri-Gu Sect. He was like a hidden hunter, constantly hunting down people who passed by.


    He would use his full strength every time, not holding back, and kill his target instantly. The strength of a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator was not something the vast majority of people could guard against.


    Moreover, whenever Zhou Feng met groups of people, he would not make a move. Therefore, no one noticed that Zhou Feng was crazily hunting here.


    ¡®It¡¯s about time!¡¯


    Zhou Feng quickly disposed of the traces around him and then relied on his Nature Affinity to hide in the nearby forest.


    After this hunting period, he had harvested a large amount of soul power.


    The soul power the cultivation of the Sun-Moon Concentration Technique had previously consumed was replenished.


    At the same time, others seemed to have noticed his frenzied hunting.


    Zhou Feng felt that it was about time. If this continued, it would be too dangerous.


    Originally, he wanted to go to the Scripture Pavilion for a walk, but he gave up on this idea after thinking about it.


    The situation was becoming more and more uncertain. It was better not to be too greedy and escape first.


    Zhou Feng had already detected it in advance regarding the route to leave the Tri-Gu Sect.


    There were several exits to leave the Tri-Gu Sect, but these exits were all guarded by someone.


    Each exit had at least one Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator guarding it.


    If Zhou Feng wanted to escape, he would face at least one Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    He had to be fast as well. Otherwise, it would be very easy to attract others to come over once he was entangled for too long.


    ¡®I should be able to draw new passive skills now!¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and opened the skill panel.


    As expected, the progress bar, which was originally only half full, was now full.


    In other words, as long as he obtained energy, whether it was Spiritual Qi or soul power, this progress bar would increase.


    In other words, as long as he killed enough cultivators, he would be able to obtain new passive skills.


    Killing cultivators! For Zhou Feng, it was a rewarding thing.


    This was truly a terrifying thing.


    Zhou Feng tried his best not to think in a dark direction. Instead, he focused his attention on drawing a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    It was still the same familiar process.


    Tenacious Heart: After getting out of combat mode, recover 1% of HP per second.


    Note: You may not be able to trigger the passive skill 100% due to certain circumstances.


    ¡°Tenacious Heart?¡±


    Zhou Feng was stunned. This passive skill was way too powerful!


    What did this passive Tenacious Heart indicate? With this passive skill, he would truly be able to recover his health passively!


    After leaving the combat state, he would recover 1% of his HP per second!


    In other words, if he was not in combat mode, he could recover from his injuries within 100 seconds at most.


    Wasn¡¯t this the legendary breathing recovery skill? Or should he use the word ¡®springwater¡¯ to describe it?


    Such a passive skill was too heaven-defying!


    However, this passive skill seemed to have some sort of restriction. There was even a line of words marked below it.


    Some sort of condition might limit it, and the passive skill could not be triggered?


    ¡®Some sort of condition? What kind of condition is this?¡¯


    Zhou Feng pondered over it.


    His condition should limit this!


    It was just like the passive Self-Healing Constitution, which could allow his wounds to heal at any time and place.


    However, this was not without conditions. There was a hidden condition.


    The hidden condition was that Zhou Feng¡¯s main body had to bear the cost of the wound healing.


    If the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi in his body were insufficient, the recovery speed of this Self-Healing Constitution would be reduced.


    Zhou Feng had experienced it before.


    Presumably, this was also the case for this Tenacious Heart!


    If Zhou Feng was already at the end of his rope, this Tenacious Heart should not be triggered due to this situation.


    In other words, as long as Zhou Feng¡¯s spiritual power and vitality were sufficient, he would be able to recover after 100 seconds no matter how serious his injuries were.


    This was akin to having an immortal body!


    The only pity was that his Tenacious Heart couldn¡¯t be activated during battle. Otherwise, his body would truly be immortal, and he wouldn¡¯t be afraid no matter how he fought.


    Even so, the passive Tenacious Heart was powerful enough.


    To Zhou Feng, his survival rate in this world would greatly be increased with this passive skill.


    After obtaining a new passive skill, Zhou Feng¡¯s confidence increased again.


    ¡®Very good! Since there is plenty of sunlight, I will use this opportunity to escape from the Tri-Gu Sect!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the sky.


    The sunlight was still intense, so it could trigger the passive Daylight Combat.


    Relying on the passive Daylight Combat¡¯s increased speed and using the Purple Jade Bell to charge out of the Tri-Gu Sect directly was not difficult for Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng circulated all the Spiritual Qi in his body and poured a large amount of soul power into the Purple Jade Bell.


    Suddenly, the Purple Jade Bell exploded with a bright light.


    A huge aura started to descend.


    One of the Penta-Ghost disciples guarding the exit was caught off guard and was struck dumb by the Purple Jade Bell.


    Zhou Feng took this opportunity, and his body flashed, leaving a series of afterimages behind him.


    He rushed out of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡°W-What is this?¡±


    ¡°Were we attacked just now?¡±


    This speed was so fast that the people guarding the exit did not even have time to react.


    Zhou Feng had already left the Tri-Gu Sect.


    By the time everyone reacted, Zhou Feng had already run to an unknown place.


    After Zhou Feng left the Tri-Gu Sect, he did not know the way and kept running forward.


    If there was no way, he would charge forward and crush his way through. In any case, he did not want to return to the Tri-Gu Sect.


    After a while, Zhou Feng slowly stopped.


    ¡®Did I¡­ succeed?¡¯


    Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, he was at a loss.


    But without a doubt, he had gotten rid of the Tri-Gu Sect and was free!

 Chapter 151 - One Size Fits All!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    To be honest, up until now, Zhou Feng himself still did not dare to believe it.


    So easily? He had not encountered any resistance? There had been no accidents!?


    He had rushed out of the Tri-Gu Sect just like that? No one had paid attention to him during the whole process.


    No one had specifically targeted him.


    All of this seemed to be going with the flow.


    ¡®That¡¯s right! Compared to those so-called monstrous geniuses, I¡¯m just a passerby with a bit of fame.¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that this was very reasonable.


    Regardless of the skill panel, he was just an ordinary passerby in this world.


    Compared to those talented and monstrous cultivators, there were basically not many people who would pay attention to him.


    Moreover, the Tri-Gu higher-ups would not have thought that someone could actually break the sect¡¯s grand formation.


    This had resulted in a huge flaw in the sect. Under normal circumstances, no disciple would be able to escape the sect without permission.


    ¡®Then what should I do now?¡¯


    Zhou Feng found a random place to hide and began to plan his next moves.


    Although he had escaped from the Tri-Gu Sect, this did not mean that he was completely safe.


    As a former Tri-Gu disciple, it was extremely dangerous for Zhou Feng to travel in this area. Therefore, the best way was to leave the Southern Border and continue his cultivation path elsewhere.


    Compared to the Southern Border¡¯s harsh environment, perhaps the Eastern Land that was rich in resources was worth considering.


    He had an understanding of the Eastern Land.


    Compared to the Southern Border, the Eastern Land could be said to be a paradise for cultivators.


    Not only was it rich in resources, but it also had a very large population, resulting in a very large number of various sects and dynasties.


    All kinds of cultivation paths could be found in the Eastern Land.


    Zhou Feng could perhaps look forward to changing his cultivation path. After all, he would not be able to continue practicing Gu techniques without the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Moreover, running to the Eastern Land meant that he could start over.


    He did not have to worry about the Tri-Gu Sect or the Voodoo Cult taking revenge.


    ¡®Just leave like that?¡¯


    Zhou Feng rubbed his chin. Why was he so unwilling to leave just like that?


    Now that the Tri-Gu Sect was in danger of being exterminated, perhaps he could hide?


    To be honest, Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Technique was a mere Soul Altar art.


    Although he had the Sun-Moon Concentration Technique, which allowed him to break through to the Purple Mansion realm, he didn¡¯t have Purple Mansion techniques or arts.


    Without a cultivation technique, it meant that his cultivation had stagnated.


    The skill panel could only allow him to obtain all sorts of passive skills, but it couldn¡¯t help him obtain a specific cultivation technique.


    Before he left the Southern Border, he still wanted to work hard and see if he could obtain a cultivation technique.


    Actually, this could be considered as a method for the Tri-Gu Sect to control their disciples.


    As long as they left the sect, it would mean that they would become vagabond cultivators.


    Things like cultivation techniques were very difficult for a vagabond cultivator to obtain.


    On the other hand, if one continued to stay in the sect, they might be able to obtain cultivation techniques of the future realm.


    With such a simple measurement, anyone would make a choice.


    ¡®Let¡¯s wait first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was not in a hurry to leave the Southern Border. He planned to settle down in a nearby village and see if the Tri-Gu Sect had been exterminated.


    ¡­


    The Fierce Tiger Village was a very ordinary village within the range of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    The strongest person in the village was only at the 5th Layer of Body Tempering realm. They relied on hunting and farming to barely survive.


    There were not many outsiders in the Fierce Tiger Village, but recently, an Exalted Immortal had appeared.


    ¡°Hey! What do you think this Exalted Immortal¡¯s cultivation is?¡±


    ¡°He should be at least in the Qi Condensation realm! Otherwise, how can he be called an Exalted Immortal?¡±


    ¡°Then, if we ask, will the Exalted Immortal give us some pointers?¡±


    ¡°Pointers? Stop dreaming!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many villagers were very curious about this sudden appearance of the Exalted Immortal.


    They were discussing it in private.


    That¡¯s right!


    This so-called Exalted Immortal was Zhou Feng himself.


    After escaping from the Tri-Gu Sect, Zhou Feng had headed east and settled down at the Fierce Tiger Village.


    He wanted to wait here and see if there was any news about the Tri-Gu Sect.


    If he received the news that the Tri-Gu Sect had defeated the Voodoo Cult, he would immediately leave this place and head east.


    On the other hand, if the Tri-Gu Sect was exterminated, then Zhou Feng would see if there was a chance to pick up the pieces.


    ¡®Hmm? I¡¯m poisoned?¡¯


    Just as Zhou Feng wanted to rest for a while, he realized that something was wrong.


    Was there poison in the food?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body quickly reacted, and some of the poison was directly expelled from his body through his pores.


    Someone had poisoned him!?


    Zhou Feng had the passive Poison Immunity, so he was not vigilant against poisoning under normal circumstances.


    He would eat everything directly.


    Thanks to his passive Poison Immunity and Level-2 Gluttony, he could basically digest everything he ate.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not hesitate to eat the food that the people from the village had just sent over.


    However, his body had just reacted, indicating he had been poisoned.


    This was probably a kind of sleeping drug. After eating it, one would easily fall asleep.


    ¡®The people of this village are so bold?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng had entered this village, he had revealed his Qi Condensation realm cultivation.


    The strongest person in this Fierce Tiger Village was only in the Body Tempering realm. Were these people so bold?


    Relying on such a simple sleeping drug to knock him out?


    The sleeping drug¡¯s effect, let alone the Qi Condensation realm, wouldn¡¯t even be able to knock out an ordinary Body Tempering cultivator!


    ¡®Forget it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to waste time thinking about the reason.


    The Purple Jade Bell slowly appeared.


    Since someone wanted to poison him, then there was nothing to explain.


    When the bell rang, the entire Fierce Tiger Village instantly fell into a period of silence.


    These villagers all lost consciousness at the first moment and then lost all signs of life.


    The smiles of those who were talking and laughing earlier also instantly froze.


    The entire process was painless, and some people did not even know what had happened before they died.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was already cold enough. If this had happened before, he might have hesitated a little.


    But now, he could carry on without any expression.


    His experience in the Tri-Gu Sect had taught him that a person could not be a saint nor a hypocrite. He had to be ruthless.


    There might be something hidden in this village, or there might be someone who wanted him to be enraged on purpose to achieve a certain goal.


    But now, none of these reasons were important. Everyone had lost their breaths.


    Zhou Feng had not guessed wrongly.


    There were indeed people who wanted to use Zhou Feng to kill the current chief of the village so that they could rise to the position.


    This could be considered a dirty matter regarding the village chief position.


    However, the person who had planned this matter probably did not expect Zhou Feng to be so decisive and so cold.


    He had directly buried the entire village.


    The person who had drugged Zhou Feng had still been immersed in excitement before their death.


    ¡°So what if he¡¯s in the Qi Condensation realm? Won¡¯t he fall into my trap?


    ¡°When that time comes, that old fart will definitely die! Then I¡¯ll go up and apologize! The village chief position will be mine in the end!¡±

 Chapter 152 - Heavenly Star City

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®I wonder how the Tri-Gu Sect is doing now¡­¡¯


    After the Fierce Tiger Village incident, Zhou Feng continued to shuttle through the forest.


    There wasn¡¯t much else in the Southern Border, but this forest was endless.


    To be honest, he was a little lost.


    His goal was to escape the Tri-Gu Sect. Now that he had achieved that, there was no more pressure, and his future plans became blurry again.


    He instantly relaxed.


    After some time, Zhou Feng met a caravan.


    This caravan was huge as it was made up of countless small caravans.


    It looked like there were all sorts of people, but these merchants were probably the most well-informed people in this area.


    It just so happened that he didn¡¯t know where he was going either, so he followed behind this caravan.


    Relying on his passive Nature Affinity, basically, no one was able to discover Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Sigh, what bad luck! Tell me, what sin have I committed!?¡±


    ¡°Truly a sin! Tell me, how can such a huge sect like the Tri-Gu Sect disappear just like that?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! You said such a large sect! So many Purple Mansion experts, and all of a sudden, it¡¯s gone!¡±


    ¡°But I heard that the Tri-Gu Sect was ambushed by three forces this time. The strength of the entire sect is still there.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    While the owners of these caravans were resting, they began to chat with each other.


    As they chatted, they naturally began to talk about the Tri-Gu Sect.


    A major incident had occurred recently¡ªthe Tri-Gu Sect had been breached, and countless disciples had been killed.


    This instantly caused the rest of the area to become chaotic, and many caravans that were planning to go to the mountainside market were forced to change paths.


    Although the Tri-Gu Sect was breached, countless resources were plundered, and the disciples were all killed or injured, the sect¡¯s true strength was not affected that much.


    After all, the nine Tri-Gu Elders were still alive, Purple Mansion experts at that.


    The Tri-Gu Sect Leader was also missing. It was likely that he was still alive.


    If the Tri-Gu Sect were to establish a new sect with so many Purple Mansion experts, it was likely that they would be able to raise the reputation of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡®As expected, they lost the fight¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t too surprised when he heard this news.


    Now that the Tri-Gu Sect was gone, he didn¡¯t need to be so worried.


    ¡°But I heard that some of the elite Tri-Gu disciples also escaped!¡±


    ¡°Is that so? But without the golden name of the Tri-Gu Sect, won¡¯t those elite disciples become vagabond cultivators?¡±


    ¡°Probably so! Forget it. Let¡¯s not talk about such an unlucky matter! Let¡¯s talk about Heavenly Star City!¡±


    ¡°Heavenly Star City? You mean the Sword God Inheritance!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Do you think someone will be able to pull out the Heavenly Star Sword this year?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As these people chatted, the topic changed to Heavenly Star City.


    Heavenly Star City? What kind of place was that?


    And what was this Sword God Inheritance?


    Zhou Feng did not understand what they were talking about. Other than the Tri-Gu Sect, he was extremely unfamiliar with the outside world.


    He did not know what kind of place Heavenly Star City was.


    But it sounded like it was a large city. A city was very rare in the Southern Border.


    ¡®Why don¡¯t I follow this caravan to Heavenly Star City to see what¡¯s going on?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt rather eager to follow them than going to the distant Eastern Land. It would be better to go to Heavenly Star City to take a look.


    It was better not to return to the Tri-Gu Sect to fish in troubled waters. There were still so many Purple Mansion experts.


    If he encountered Old Demon Gu, he would be in danger.


    Just as Zhou Feng made up his mind to follow this caravan to Heavenly Star City to take a look¡­


    A conflict broke out in the huge caravan.


    ¡°My dear daughter! Where¡¯s the turning point you mentioned? Why hasn¡¯t it appeared yet!¡±


    Qian Shang¡¯s fat face was covered in sweat, and his expression was extremely anxious.


    Qian Shang and his daughter were actually in this caravan?


    That¡¯s right! Qian Qianqian had a bad feeling before the Voodoo Cult invaded the Tri-Gu Sect.


    She had once again advised Qian Shang to abandon his current business and continue running away.


    One had to know that Qian Shang had finally established himself in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Moreover, he had been living a comfortable life thanks to Zhou Feng¡¯s reputation. How could he suddenly give up all this and run away?


    Still, Qian Qianqian¡¯s attitude had been extremely firm, so Qian Shang finally made up his mind to sell most of the goods.


    Then, he followed this group of caravans and left the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Not long after Qian Shang and his daughter left, Tri-Gu Sect was in trouble.


    Qian Shang was also very happy with his previous decision. If he had left a moment later, he might not have been able to leave again.


    But now, they encountered a new crisis.


    Another caravan had targeted the Treasure Mouse in Qian Qianqian¡¯s hands.


    Now, they were surrounding Qian Shang¡¯s caravan.


    The escorts that Qian Shang had hired were almost unable to withstand the pressure.


    ¡°How is it? Have you considered it? As long as you nod your head, I will definitely not mistreat you in terms of increasing the money!¡±


    Qin Wan looked like he was very easy to negotiate, but he had been secretly pressuring them.


    He really didn¡¯t expect to meet the legendary Treasure Mouse in such a small place.


    Although it was still in its infancy, Treasure Mice were really too rare.


    Every one of them was a treasure!


    ¡®Is it that father-and-daughter duo?¡¯


    The conflict between Qian Shang and Qin Wan also fell into Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    Zhou Feng still remembered Qian Shang and his daughter very clearly. He didn¡¯t expect to meet them in such a place.


    This seemed a bit coincidental!


    ¡®They seem to have encountered some trouble? They should have some information about Heavenly Star City!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was worried about treading blindly. It would be best if he had an acquaintance as a navigator.


    Furthermore, Qian Shang and Qian Qianqian were the first to pay him protection money, so they could be considered acquaintances.


    ¡°How is it? Haven¡¯t you considered it? You are preparing to go to Heavenly Star City this time, right?¡±


    ¡°Our Qin Clan can be considered influential in Heavenly Star City. If you do this, you are not giving face to our Qin Clan!¡±


    Qin Wan looked at Qian Qianqian, who had not responded for a long time. He immediately lost his patience and started to threaten her.


    The other small merchant caravans were basically waiting for a good show.


    It was because the Qin caravan was quite famous in this joint caravan.


    The Qin Clan of Heavenly Star City established and backed this caravan.


    One must know that the forefather of the Qin Clan of Heavenly Star City was an elite Purple Mansion expert.


    Under normal circumstances, no one would offend a clan with an elite Purple Mansion expert.


    ¡°Daughter! What should we do?¡± Qian Shang was sweating profusely.


    Qian Qianqian didn¡¯t say anything, but it could be seen that she was in a dilemma. Her hands were constantly tugging at her sleeves, and her lips were pursed.


    ¡°Who are you threatening?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that it was about time for him to stop hiding his aura upon seeing this.


    The aura of a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator was completely released.


    In an instant, everyone¡¯s nerves tensed up.


    ¡°A Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator!? Where did he come from?¡±


    ¡°How can there be a Grade-1 Soul Altar expert? I actually didn¡¯t notice it before?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The strongest expert was only a Grade-3 Soul Altar cultivator among the merchants present. It was really easy for people to misunderstand when a Grade-1 Soul Altar expert suddenly appeared..

 Chapter 153 - Mountain Spirit Hound

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Is it Young Master? Here we are!¡±


    The moment Qian Shang saw Zhou Feng, he realized that the so-called turning point had appeared.


    He didn¡¯t expect to meet Zhou Feng in such a place.


    It should be known that Zhou Feng had been in the limelight in the inner sect back then, breaking through to the Soul Altar realm in a short time.


    Then, he had even entered the sect¡¯s blessed land to continue cultivating.


    Qian Shang and his daughter had some connections with Zhou Feng in the beginning.


    Although Zhou Feng had never charged them protection fees after that, Qian Shang¡¯s life in the market city could be said to be very comfortable as he relied on this relationship,


    If it weren¡¯t for the huge change in the Tri-Gu Sect, perhaps they wouldn¡¯t have left the Tri-Gu Sect.


    After all, although Heavenly Star City was very big, the competition was also extremely fierce. Qian Shang and his daughter would probably have a hard time establishing a foothold in Heavenly Star City.


    However, it would be different if there was a Grade-1 Soul Altar expert behind them.


    This Qian Shang was also a scheming person. When he saw Zhou Feng, he deliberately omitted the first surname and directly called him Young Master.


    ¡°Young Master? This Qian merchant actually has such an expert behind him?¡±


    ¡°Looks like the Qin Clan¡¯s luck isn¡¯t too good!¡±


    ¡°The feud between these two parties can be considered to be formed!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Upon hearing Qian Shang¡¯s term of address, the originally extremely nervous merchants instantly heaved a sigh of relief.


    If it weren¡¯t necessary, they really wouldn¡¯t want to become enemies with a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator in the wilderness.


    Hearing Qian Shang¡¯s address, Zhou Feng raised his brows and spoke. ¡°What happened?¡±


    ¡°Ahem, ahem, there might be some misunderstanding here!¡±


    Seeing that the situation wasn¡¯t right, Qin Wan immediately coughed dryly, wanting to defend himself.


    ¡®What bad luck! You have a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator backing you up? Why didn¡¯t you say so earlier!?


    ¡®Isn¡¯t it awkward now that things have come to this?¡¯


    Although the Qin Clan had a Purple Mansion patriarch backing them up, Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivators could not be easily bullied.


    Not to mention that they weren¡¯t in Heavenly Star City right now.


    If they were in Heavenly Star City right now, Qin Wan might not admit defeat and still maintain his arrogant appearance.


    But this was the wilderness, and they were very far away from Heavenly Star City.


    If anything happened on this road, even a Purple Mansion expert wouldn¡¯t be able to help.


    ¡°Oh? Is it a misunderstanding?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t conceal his strength at all. The tyrannical aura of a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator directly targeted Qin Wan.


    Zhou Feng absolutely would not do anything like disguising his strength to eat a tiger.


    That looked very stupid in his eyes. It would be better to display his strength and intimidate the small fries.


    He would make those who had ill intentions not dare to make a move against him.


    Deliberately conceal his own strength, let others make a move against him, and then expose his strength, killing them in one fell swoop?


    This sounded too stupid. Wasn¡¯t this a waste of his time?


    ¡°It¡¯s a misunderstanding! It¡¯s definitely a misunderstanding!¡±


    Qin Wan smelled a strong scent of blood. This scent of blood could only be possessed by someone who had killed many people.


    This person before him was definitely a ruthless person. Moreover, he was the type that would kill decisively. He must not be offended.


    A large amount of cold sweat emerged on Qin Wan¡¯s forehead.


    ¡°This is a Mountain Spirit Hound! Treat it as an apology from our Qin caravan. If we have offended you, please forgive us!¡±


    Under his strong desire to survive, Qin Wan took a little puppy out of a bag.


    ¡°Mountain Spirit Hound? It¡¯s actually a Mountain Spirit Hound!?¡±


    ¡°Is it a purebred?¡±


    ¡°How could it be a purebred!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the little puppy in front of him. His original intention to make a move was extinguished.


    He did not expect Qin Wan to be so tactful. He actually took the initiative to apologize and even used a spirit dog as an apology.


    It would be a little unreasonable if he still made a move. After all, Zhou Feng still wanted to follow this joint caravan to Heavenly Star City.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll let it go this time!¡±


    He took the little puppy, and the aura on his body slowly converged.


    ¡°Misunderstanding! It¡¯s all a misunderstanding!¡±


    Although Qin Wan¡¯s heart was bleeding, his face was still smiling apologetically.


    One had to know that this was a genuine Mountain Spirit Hound, and its body had a trace of the Heavenly Dog¡¯s bloodline.


    The rare thing was that this Mountain Spirit Hound hadn¡¯t opened its eyes and had just been born.


    It could be nurtured from a young age and recognize the person it saw first as its master.


    Once it grew up, it would be equivalent to having a Soul Altar spirit beast companion.


    That¡¯s right! When this Mountain Spirit Hound grew up, it would automatically be able to break through to the Soul Altar realm.


    Although it would require countless resources, its value was self-evident. It was because only a few spirit beasts could recognize their master and become human companions.


    This time, the Qin caravan had arrived at this remote place for the purpose of catching Mountain Spirit Hounds.


    It would be a lie if Qin Wan did not feel sorry for one of the three pups of the Mountain Spirit Hounds.


    However, in order to save his life and build a good relationship with Zhou Feng, he had to give it to him.


    It must be said that Qin Wan was also quite decisive in making such a decision in such a short time.


    ¡°Well, it¡¯s all a misunderstanding!¡±


    Looking at the little dog sucking his finger, Zhou Feng did not continue pursuing the matter.


    Since this misunderstanding was resolved, the two caravans split.


    After Qin Wan left, Qian Shang revealed a fawning smile to Zhou Feng. ¡°Hehe, Master Zhou! Just now¡ª¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m just following this caravan to Star City. I¡¯ll leave when I get there,¡± Zhou Feng interrupted Qian Shang.


    Qian Shang instantly became anxious upon hearing that.


    With such a thick leg here, how could he not firmly hold onto it!?


    One had to know that compared to the Tri-Gu Sect, Heavenly Star City was a truly large city, and the area where the Tri-Gu Sect was located was only considered a rural area.


    Heavenly Star City¡¯s City Lord was a mighty Divine Ability expert, and even Purple Mansion experts could be seen in the city.


    It was simply impossible for Qian Shang, a powerless man who hadn¡¯t even reached the Soul Altar realm, to settle down in Heavenly Star City without a backer behind him.


    ¡°Don¡¯t! Young Master! You can¡¯t do this! You¡¯ve taken my protection fee!¡±


    At that moment, Qian Shang was not as tactful as he was when doing business. Instead, he was very stiff as he wanted to grab hold of such a thick leg.


    There was nothing he could do. The difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great.


    In front of Zhou Feng, Qian Shang had no way to maintain his composure.


    ¡°My Little White can help you find all kinds of spirit herbs and treasures! Moreover, my father¡¯s caravan can earn a lot of Spirit Stones for you!


    ¡°Also, you don¡¯t need to worry about all this. 90% of our caravan¡¯s profits will be handed over to you every month!


    ¡°In the end, we will only borrow your reputation. Even if something happens, you can give up on us at will!¡±


    After Qian Qianqian asked the other caravan members to describe everything, she walked directly to Zhou Feng.


    She stated all the conditions without beating around the bush.


    She told him all the conditions that she could offer in order to make Zhou Feng their backer.


    Qian Shang was utterly shocked upon hearing his daughter¡¯s bold conditions.


    ¡®Is there such a way to negotiate? This is not giving us any way out!¡¯

 Chapter 154 - Big Yellow

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Zhou Feng heard Qian Qianqian¡¯s words, he was stunned.


    To be honest, these kinds of conditions were too attractive.


    The conditions Qian Qianqian mentioned just now basically meant that Zhou Feng could enjoy most of the benefits.


    And he didn¡¯t have to bear the responsibility.


    This was really hard to refuse.


    The most important thing was that Qian Qianqian didn¡¯t hide anything and directly explained everything.


    With such a caravan helping him to earn Spirit Stones, wasn¡¯t it a god-sent gift?


    After Zhou Feng left the Tri-Gu Sect, it also meant that he became a vagabond cultivator. In other words, he would have to earn all cultivation resources in the future by himself.


    If immortality was the ultimate goal of cultivation, then he¡¯d need as many cultivation resources as he could get his hands on.


    Under such circumstances, wasn¡¯t it worth it to become Qian Shang and his daughter¡¯s backer?


    Moreover, the two people in front of him could be considered acquaintances and were not complete strangers.


    They had a certain foundation of trust.


    Without thinking for too long, Zhou Feng directly agreed. ¡°Good! From now on, you can count on me to protect you!¡±


    Qian Shang, who had a nervous expression on his face, instantly heaved a sigh of relief when Zhou Feng agreed. He believed that the journey to Heavenly Star City would be much safer with such an expert as a backer.


    At the same time, this could be considered as having a guarantee in the future.


    It had to be said that his daughter¡¯s intuition was really accurate. It seemed that listening to his daughter was definitely not wrong!


    Qian Shang once again rejoiced that he had not disregarded his daughter¡¯s words.


    This time, he had finally overcome the difficulty!


    This joint caravan was almost fully repaired and was ready to continue their journey.


    Qian Shang gave his carriage to Zhou Feng and volunteered to be Zhou Feng¡¯s coachman.


    Qian Qianqian sat on the other side of the carriage.


    Qian Shang and his daughter didn¡¯t seem to want to leave Zhou Feng.


    While they were traveling, Zhou Feng asked about Heavenly Star City and the spirit dog.


    Qian Shang didn¡¯t know much about Heavenly Star City. He only knew that it was one of the many cities in the Southern Border.


    It was different from the Eastern Land. The Eastern Land had a better environment, so it was basically divided into regions by dynasties.


    Due to the harsh environment in the Southern Border, there were all kinds of poisonous insects and demon beasts hidden there.


    Therefore, it was basically a city with many big cities as the base. Outside these big cities were all kinds of sects.


    Below the sects were all sorts of strongholds.


    Heavenly Star City was a large city at the Southern Border. The City Lord was a mighty Divine Ability expert named Heavenly Star Patriarch.


    Apart from these, Qian Shang didn¡¯t know anything else. After all, Qian Shang had never been to Heavenly Star City before.


    However, there was one important thing they had to pay attention to. They would pass by the Withered Forest on the way to Heavenly Star City.


    The Withered Forest was a very dangerous place as a convocation of Poisonous Eagles was entrenched there.


    ¡°Withered Forest? Poisonous Eagles?¡±


    ¡°Yes! Poisonous Eagles! I heard that every Poisonous Eagle is above the Soul Altar realm. Every time a caravan passes by here, there will be casualties!¡±


    When Qian Shang said this, he secretly glanced at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Then, do you know this Mountain Spirit Hound?¡±


    Zhou Feng touched the little puppy in his palm.


    The little puppy in his palm had been sucking on his finger, and it was only the size of a mouse.


    Its baby teeth weren¡¯t even fully grown, but Zhou Feng could feel the spirituality contained within the little puppy.


    ¡°I know! I know!¡±


    Speaking of Mountain Spirit Hounds, Qian Shang immediately became much more spirited.


    This Mountain Spirit Hound was a very special spirit beast, and it had become a companion of humans hundreds of thousands of years ago.


    When it grew up, its sense of smell was extremely sensitive, and its tracking ability was very strong.


    It could also chase away vengeful spirits, and its bark could suppress other spirit beasts. It was an extremely outstanding supporting spirit beast.


    It was the spirit beast that many families in Heavenly Star City loved to raise.


    ¡°Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dog bloodline in Young Master¡¯s Mountain Spirit Hound is very weak! Its potential isn¡¯t very high!¡±


    As he spoke, Qian Shang revealed a regretful expression.


    ¡°Heavenly Dog?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This Heavenly Dog is a legendary exotic beast!¡±


    Heavenly Dog! This was a legendary exotic beast, and it was said that its strength was above the Divine Ability realm.


    As the saying went, the appearance of a beast was like that of a fox with a white head. It was called Heavenly Dog, and its voice was like a pomegranate, capable of controlling fierce beasts.


    Looking at the little puppy that was still tirelessly sucking on his finger, Zhou Feng asked a very crucial question, ¡°Then what should I feed this Mountain Spirit Hound?¡±


    ¡°Eh, it is said that Mountain Spirit Hounds eat everything! The growth rate of a Mountain Spirit Hound will be affected by what its owner feeds it!


    ¡°Right! It is said that Mountain Spirit Hounds also eat Spirit Stones!¡±


    ¡®Eat everything? Even Spirit Stones? It seems to be quite easy to feed it.¡¯


    Zhou Feng swept his gaze across his storage ring. After the several disasters that had occurred previously, he couldn¡¯t help but sigh.


    The ring that originally contained the Han Clan¡¯s treasury was already quite empty.


    However, there were still many spirit herbs and various other items that he couldn¡¯t name.


    He thought for a moment before taking out a Spirit Stone.


    ¡°Woof! Woof Woof Woof Woof!¡±


    The moment Zhou Feng took out the Spirit Stone, the little puppy seemed to have smelled something and began to bark.


    Zhou Feng stuffed the Spirit Stone into the little puppy¡¯s mouth.


    The little puppy immediately stopped barking and began to chew on the Spirit Stone with great effort. It looked like it was chewing on a bone, although the speed was very slow.


    However, Zhou Feng could feel that the Spiritual Qi contained in that Spirit Stone was being slowly absorbed.


    ¡®It can eat Spirit Stones after being born? It looks pretty good!¡¯


    Previously, Zhou Feng had been very envious of Leng Maner¡¯s Snow Condor. He did not expect that he would suddenly have a young spirit beast.


    Although this Mountain Spirit Hound could not fly as well as the Snow Condor, perhaps it was not bad to raise a dog?


    The slow path of cultivation should not be so lonely with such a spirit beast as a companion.


    And perhaps it was because of the passive Nature Affinity that this little puppy was especially close to him.


    Nature Affinity (Level 1): It¡¯s very easy to gain the favor of flowers, birds, insects, and beasts. At the same time, if you¡¯re in the wild, you¡¯ll become one with the surrounding environment.


    Zhou Feng had forgotten the passive skill¡¯s full description, so he did not expect it to play a role now.


    ¡®As for the name, let¡¯s call it Big Yellow!¡¯


    The little puppy¡¯s fur was yellow, while it resembled a wolf, very similar to the pastoral dog in his previous life.


    Thus, Zhou Feng simply named it Big Yellow.


    ¡®He fed it a Spirit Stone!¡¯


    Qian Shang¡¯s eyes almost popped out when he saw Zhou Feng feeding Big Yellow with a Spirit Stone.


    This was too extravagant!


    One had to know that this Spirit Stone could sustain Big Yellow for a day at most. If it was fed every day, who knew how many Spirit Stones it would consume!?


    Not to mention that its appetite would increase exponentially when Big Yellow grew up.


    Previously, Qian Shang had seen Qin Wan feeding the little puppies with some goat milk.. Yet, Zhou Feng directly used Spirit Stones!

 Chapter 155 - Pill Refinement Skills

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After Zhou Feng joined this joint caravan, he did not encounter any big problems along the way.


    But as he got further away from the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s jurisdiction, the number of demonic beasts in the surroundings began to increase.


    This was also the first time he encountered a group of demonic beasts. He did not know when these demonic beasts started following behind the caravan like sharks following a cruise ship.


    If someone were not careful, they would become the food of these demonic beasts.


    It was worth mentioning that these demonic beasts carried a striking demonic aura.


    What kind of feeling did the demonic aura give to people?


    One of brutality, bloodthirst, and chaos!


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s first perception of demonic aura.


    This was completely different from the pure spiritual aura on Little Yellow¡¯s body.


    Little Yellow, which was still sucking on the Spirit Stone in his hand, did not have that brutal demonic aura on its body.


    Instead, it exuded a pure spiritual aura. The difference between a demonic beast and a spirit beast was simply too great.


    No wonder this spirit hound was so popular. Compared to those tyrannical demonic beasts, Little Yellow was simply too cute.


    ¡®And that Qian father and daughter¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng stroked Little Yellow while looking at Qian Shang and his daughter. They gave him a bizarre feeling, Qian Qianqian in particular. Although she was blind, her senses were very sharp.


    Every time she encountered danger, she seemed to be able to predict it in advance, and at that time, she was extremely decisive, directly tying the Qian merchant group to him.


    After all, Qian Qianqian did not have the slightest bit of cultivation.


    However, although Zhou Feng was a little curious, he did not have the intention to get to the bottom of it.


    At present, he might as well think about his future.


    After a short period of confusion, Zhou Feng quickly decided on his life goal¡ªthat was to live forever! As long as he could live on!


    And on this basis, he continued to increase his cultivation.


    Also, although he had escaped from the Tri-Gu Sect, the sect¡¯s threat didn¡¯t disappear.


    The Tri-Gu Sect had been breached, but their main forces were still preserved.


    Zhou Feng still needed to quickly increase his strength to deal with any future accidents.


    This begged the question, how could he increase his strength?


    This question haunted Zhou Feng.


    Previously, in order to pursue speed, Zhou Feng could be described as rampaging on the road of cultivation.


    Now, if he wanted to continue improving his strength, it seemed that the only thing left was to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    If he could break through to the Purple Mansion realm, condense his nascent soul, and unlock his innate divine ability, then his strength would be increased by a tremendous amount.


    However, breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm was easier said than done. Without cultivation techniques and resources, how could he break through?


    ¡®Wait! I forgot about my pill refinement skills!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly recalled his pill refinement skills, as well as Pill Master Yuan¡¯s pill refinement inheritance, which was still in his hands.


    Now, he seemed to be able to pick up this pill refinement technique.


    Previously, due to various reasons, Zhou Feng had given up on this pill refinement technique.


    But in reality, if one became a Pill Master, they would be very popular.


    Especially in a large city like Heavenly Star City, the supply of pill refinement ingredients would definitely be ample.


    At the same time, lots of people should reside in such a large city, and there was also a consumer market.


    Perhaps, he could use his pill refinement technique to exchange for a portion of the resources needed to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm?


    A Purple Mansion cultivation technique was not something that could be exchanged with ordinary Spirit Stones.


    But what if it was a precious medicinal pill? That was hard to say!


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more he felt that this was extremely beneficial.


    It was just that pill refinement required a lot of resources. It would be great to draw some passive knowledge about pill refinement.


    ¡®I¡¯d better review the knowledge about pill refinement first¡­¡¯


    Since Zhou Feng had nothing to do now, he planned to review the knowledge about pill refinement in the carriage.


    In any case, they were still very far from Heavenly Star City. It would probably take a long time to travel.


    Thus, Zhou Feng buried his head into the sea of pill refinement knowledge.


    A few waves of demonic beasts attacked the joint caravan during this time.


    However, these demonic beasts were all small fries, so they were easily repelled.


    Another thing was that Big Yellow had already sucked the Spiritual Qi inside a few Spirit Stones dry.


    Zhou Feng casually took out another Spirit Stone and threw it to Big Yellow.


    That grandiose move showed Qian Shang what it meant to be a tycoon.


    Qian Shang still remembered that Zhou Feng had not been that generous back then. He had even been reduced to collecting protection fees from the market.


    Qian Shang still remembered that he had not thought much of Zhou Feng back then.


    But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Zhou Feng would become an unfathomable bigshot while he was still a small businessman?


    Fortunately, he seized the last opportunity.


    He firmly grabbed this thick leg of Zhou Feng, thinking that he should be able to stay in Heavenly Star City for some time.


    The night gradually grew darker.


    At this time, the wilderness was perilous. Some demonic beasts that did not appear during the day would appear at this time.


    Therefore, it was not suitable to travel at night.


    Everyone in the joint caravan was also very taciturn. At the same time, they began to set up camp, preparing to spend the night in the wilderness.


    Setting up camp was very particular. The large caravans were stationed at the core position.


    Then, according to the strength of each caravan, they would line up outside one by one.


    Simply put, some small caravans would act as the outer defense of the camp.


    The small caravans were also very tactful toward this because only then would these large caravans be willing to bring them to Heavenly Star City.


    Logically speaking, Qian Shang¡¯s merchant caravan would also be stationed at the outermost perimeter, facing the sneak attacks of demonic beasts at any time.


    However, because of Zhou Feng¡¯s existence, Qian Shang¡¯s caravan was arranged to be near the core position in the middle.


    ¡°It¡¯s really different with an expert overseeing it! These big cats and kittens can occupy such a good position!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This is the treatment of an expert! I can¡¯t be envious!¡±


    ¡®¡­¡¯


    Seeing the treatment of Qian Shang¡¯s caravan, some merchants couldn¡¯t help but say a few sour words.


    After all, the scale of Qian Shang¡¯s caravan was too small. They had all been cannon fodder before Zhou Feng appeared.


    Now that they occupied such a good position, the status quo changed.


    In a short while, all the caravans were stationed.


    At that moment, a long howl made everyone present vigilant.


    ¡°Awooo!¡±


    ¡°Awooo!¡±


    A cacophony of howls followed the long wolf howl.


    ¡°Oh no! This is a wolf pack!?¡±


    These continuous wolf howls made some experienced people break out in a cold sweat.


    Their luck was too bad! They encountered a demonic wolf pack.


    Compared to ordinary demonic beasts, this demonic wolf pack was the most dangerous in the wild.


    This was because these demonic wolf packs not only possessed astonishing strength but were also very disciplined and would act as a team.


    Once such a wolf pack targeted them, they would land a devastating blow to the joint caravan..

 Chapter 156 - Take the Lead, Big Brother

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®A wolf pack!?¡¯


    The continuous wolf howls woke up Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    He didn¡¯t expect Big Yellow next to him also let out a howl.


    Although this howl was full of milk flavor and didn¡¯t have any deterrent force, it was enough to prove Big Yellow¡¯s courage.


    ¡®It ate so fast?¡¯


    Zhou Feng glanced at the Spirit Stone in Big Yellow¡¯s paws. It had turned into an empty shell again, and he raised his eyebrows.


    This little fellow¡¯s appetite was big.


    Zhou Feng took out another Spirit Stone and stuffed it into Big Yellow¡¯s paws. He then walked out of the carriage to check the situation.


    Just as Zhou Feng walked out of the carriage, he saw that the scene was chaotic.


    Because of the wolf howls, almost all the horned horses pulling the carriages were scared.


    Many people were comforting the frightened horses.


    ¡°What happened?¡± Zhou Feng asked Qian Shang.


    ¡°We seem to be targeted by the wolves! And it¡¯s The Howling Moon Wolves! I heard that¡­¡±


    The nervous Qian Shang felt much more at ease when Zhou Feng came out. Then he began to explain what had happened.


    This pack of Howling Moon Wolves had their eyes on the caravan. Howling Moon Wolves were the most numerous demonic beasts in the vicinity.


    Basically, every adult Howling Moon Wolf had Qi Condensation cultivation.


    Moreover, because the demonic beasts¡¯ physical bodies far surpassed those of humans, they were stronger than ordinary Qi Condensation cultivators.


    It was also said that these Howling Moon Wolves would even cooperate. Once the number of wolves increased, even Soul Altar cultivators wouldn¡¯t be able to gain any advantage.


    The most terrifying aspect was that each wolf pack had a Wolf King.


    Those who could become Wolf Kings usually had cultivation comparable to Soul Altar cultivators.


    ¡°This is, after all, the United Chamber of Commerce. The hearts of the people aren¡¯t aligned¡­¡±


    As he spoke, Qian Shang revealed a trace of worry on his face.


    This was because countless merchant groups formed the United Chamber of Commerce.


    Once they encountered danger, they would prioritize protecting themselves.


    This way, the wolf pack would easily find an opportunity to split up the battlefield.


    The Howling Moon Wolf wasn¡¯t the only demonic beast in the wild. Other demonic beasts were eyeing them like tigers eyeing their prey.


    Under such circumstances, it was no wonder that Qian Shang was so worried.


    This joint caravan had enough people, so it could intimidate most of the lone demonic beasts in the wild. Only then could they pass through this road.


    Once there were too many casualties, it might not be enough to intimidate some of the demonic beasts.


    This would have a huge impact on the rest of the journey.


    ¡®So troublesome?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned and used his perception to sense the location of the Howling Moon Wolves.


    To be honest, he did not want any accidents to happen now. It would be best if they could reach Heavenly Star City smoothly. The longer he dragged this out in the wild, the greater the risk.


    Because of this, Zhou Feng suddenly made a surprising move.


    ¡®Blood-Burning Technique! Spiritual Attachment Art!


    ¡®Activate!¡¯


    Zhou Feng unleashed his strongest aura without hesitation, even burning his Blood Qi.


    ¡°This¡­ This aura?¡±


    ¡°Who is it? What are they doing?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s overbearing and fierce aura made most of the people around them feel extremely uncomfortable.


    It was too oppressive!


    Just the aura alone was enough to make most of them unable to breathe.


    ¡°Awooo!¡±


    The Howling Moon Wolf King, which had been circling outside the caravan, did not want to be outdone. It erupted with a terrifying aura as well.


    Zhou Feng and the Howling Moon Wolf King exchanged blows in the air.


    ¡°Is it that person from this morning?¡±


    ¡°Is he fighting with the Howling Moon Wolf King!?¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that! This person actually stood up? Why is that?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    What many people didn¡¯t expect was that Zhou Feng actually took the initiative to stand up against the Howling Moon Wolf King.


    To those large caravans, the Howling Moon Wolves were not a big threat to them.


    Even if the outer defense line collapsed, only the small merchant caravans would suffer heavy losses.


    And once the wolf pack was full, coupled with the deterrence of these large merchant caravans, they would usually retreat.


    Therefore, those Soul Altar cultivators in charge of protecting the large merchant caravans were basically sitting on a fishing platform.


    They basically wouldn¡¯t do anything to stand out.


    After all, there was a risk in being the first to stand out. Once those beasts targeted them, even if they didn¡¯t die, they would still be heavily injured.


    For those Soul Altar cultivators, doing nothing was the best choice.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t. He directly went up against the Wolf King.


    ¡°AWOOOO!¡±


    The Howling Moon Wolf King and Zhou Feng faced each other, and in the end, it realized that it couldn¡¯t suppress Zhou Feng no matter what.


    It also sensed that there were many powerful auras in the joint caravan.


    After weighing the pros and cons, the Howling Moon Wolf King actually retreated.


    The elusive wolf pack quietly disappeared into the distance with a wolf howl.


    ¡°Retreated? Did they retreat in fear?¡±


    ¡°This seems to be the first time! This is the first time I¡¯ve seen the Howling Moon Wolves retreat in fear!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s great!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Howling Moon Wolves¡¯ sudden retreat filled many people¡¯s faces with astonishment.


    What followed was a pleasant surprise, as well as gratitude toward Zhou Feng.


    A good person! This was definitely a great person!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were definitely a great favor to the small merchant caravans.


    Because of him, these small merchant caravans had avoided great losses.


    Since Zhou Feng had accomplished his goal, he silently deactivated the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art.


    He just didn¡¯t want to slow down the speed of his journey to Heavenly Star City.


    Such a thing wasn¡¯t worth mentioning to Zhou Feng.


    Moreover, when Zhou Feng deactivated the Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art, his passive skills were triggered!


    The first skill that was triggered was the passive Tenacious Heart!


    He could recover 1% of his HP per second.


    A large amount of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi was consumed, and the injuries in Zhou Feng¡¯s body healed at speed visible to the naked eye.


    One, two, three!


    Three seconds! In just the time it took to count to three, Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries had recovered entirely.


    Other than consuming some Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi, his condition had once again recovered to its peak.


    He once again felt the passive Tenacious Heart¡¯s terror!


    He only needed to leave the battle state to be able to recover his injuries, and this recovery speed was truly frightening.


    This was the true method of breathing and recovering blood.


    After forcing back the Howling Moon Wolf King, Zhou Feng also returned to the horse carriage.


    This night passed peacefully.


    Not long after, the sky slowly turned white.


    The long night had passed, and the day had arrived.


    During this period, many small merchant caravans had sent some gifts to Qian Shang in order to express their gratitude for Zhou Feng¡¯s actions last night.


    The backbone of the entire joint caravan had actually shifted slightly because of last night¡¯s event.


    Initially, the backbone of the joint caravan was the three large merchant caravans, and they made some decisions.


    But from today onward, perhaps the voice of this joint caravan would begin to shift.


    From last night¡¯s performance, Zhou Feng was undoubtedly more suitable to be the leader of this joint caravan.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t thought of this before.


    Originally, he merely wanted to deter the wolf pack from charging into the caravan so that they could arrive at Heavenly Star City faster.


    As for being their leader? This wasn¡¯t what Zhou Feng wanted!

 Chapter 157 - Drawing Out a New Passive Skill

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Because of Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance, the voice of this joint caravan had been scattered up until now.


    To those small caravans, Zhou Feng was definitely more reliable than those large caravans.


    Even because the scale of Qian Shang¡¯s caravan was relatively small, many caravans directly came over to ask if they could rely on them.


    For several days in a row, Qian Shang was tired of dealing with these people. After all, only strength could make people feel at ease in the wilderness.


    The most exaggerated thing was that many people were willing to offer Spirit Stones in exchange for the right to stay near Zhou Feng.


    Among them, the angriest were naturally the large merchant caravans. The actions of these small merchant caravans were undoubtedly a harsh slap to their faces.


    However, these people did not dare to cause trouble for Zhou Feng.


    The aura that Zhou Feng had exuded during his confrontation with the Howling Moon Wolf King had already proved everything.


    ¡°Do as you see fit!¡±


    Regarding this matter, Zhou Feng only gave Qian Shang one sentence.


    That was to do as he saw fit. It did not matter even if he used his name to brag.


    The current situation should be the best time to develop his network of contacts. He was not familiar with the people and places in Heavenly Star City. If he had some connections, his life in Heavenly Star City should be a little better.


    However, this mainly depended on Qian Shang. Besides his daily cultivation, Zhou Feng was also studying the art of pill refinement.


    There was no pressure on his shoulders now, so he didn¡¯t have to force himself to continue cultivating.


    He could just slowly study the art of pill refinement.


    Other than that, Zhou Feng¡¯s favorite thing to do was to feed Big Yellow.


    At this time, Big Yellow had completely opened its eyes, and its body size was getting bigger and bigger every day.


    Its eyes seemed to be very intelligent. Usually, it was like a small guard guarding Zhou Feng¡¯s side.


    At the same time, Big Yellow¡¯s appetite was increasing day by day.


    In addition to feeding it Spirit Stones, it also needed to consume resources.


    Big Yellow¡¯s other advantage was probably that it wasn¡¯t picky with its food. It could eat anything.


    Zhou Feng had fed Big Yellow some of the defective products from his previous pill refinement.


    Surprisingly, Big Yellow did not feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, its fur had become even shinier. It was as if it also possessed the passive Gluttony.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng¡¯s days were extremely comfortable.


    He would study pill refinement and feed Big Yellow daily.


    This trip lasted for one and a half months and was also nearing the end.


    ¡°As long as we pass through the Withered Forest, we will soon arrive at Heavenly Star City!¡±


    Qian Shang reported the situation to Zhou Feng as usual.


    ¡°Are we finally arriving?¡±


    To be honest, Zhou Feng was already feeling a little bored. He could only stay in the carriage every day. It was too depressing.


    Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do. After all, the caravan¡¯s speed was slow, to begin with.


    Not to mention it was such a huge caravan, he could only continue to endure.


    Soon, Zhou Feng¡¯s caravan entered a forest of withered trees.


    This was also the most dangerous part of the journey.


    This was because numerous Poisonous Eagles were living here. These Poisonous Eagles all carried their own toxins, and they were fearless of death and extremely vengeful.


    As long as one of their companions died, they would definitely move out in full force. They would not rest until one of the two parties died.


    It was said that someone had once provoked the Poisonous Eagles, and they chased them to Heavenly Star City.


    Even after chasing them to Heavenly Star City, these Poisonous Eagles had not given up.


    In the end, Heavenly Star City¡¯s protection formation had killed them all.


    Normally, this should be the Poisonous Eagles¡¯ breeding period, and they were all in their nests.


    This was also the time when they could pass through the Withered Forest every year.


    There would be no danger as long as there were no major problems.


    When they passed through the Withered Forest, almost everyone held their breaths, their expressions heavy.


    Even Zhou Feng was affected.


    Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and all the caravans passed through the Withered Forest safely.


    ¡°Scared me to death!¡±


    ¡°We¡¯ve finally passed through! I really don¡¯t want to pass through a place like the Withered Forest again!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s too terrifying!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After passing through the Withered Forest, everyone heaved sighs of relief.


    The rest of the journey would be much safer.


    This was because the next step was within the sphere of influence of Heavenly Star City. No more demonic beasts would appear.


    After such a long period of living in the wilderness, they couldn¡¯t wait to have a good rest.


    Thus, it was time for the joint caravan to split up. After all, they had already reached Heavenly Star City¡¯s territory, so there was basically no risk.


    ¡°Let¡¯s head straight to Heavenly Star City.¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care too much. He just asked Qian Shang to speed up and head straight to Heavenly Star City.


    ¡°Alright! Young Master!¡±


    ¡­


    Heavenly Star City was a famous city on the Southern Border.


    It was also the holy land of cultivation in the hearts of the nearby cultivators. One could exchange for all kinds of cultivation resources, as well as find Pill Masters, Formation Masters, Beast Tamers, and so on.


    The most famous one was the Star Tree in the inner city of Heavenly Star City. This mutant spirit tree could absorb the starlight from the nine heavens at night and convert it into Spiritual Qi.


    Because of this, almost all the people in Heavenly Star City hoped to enter the inner city.


    ¡°Is this Heavenly Star City?¡±


    Zhou Feng lifted the curtain on the carriage.


    This was a super-giant city made of bluestone. One could feel the vicissitudes of time from the mottled city walls.


    What made Zhou Feng somewhat uncomfortable was that there were people all around him.


    And almost all of them had high cultivation bases. He saw quite a few Soul Altar cultivators.


    A Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivation base seemed to be average in Heavenly Star City.


    After spending some Spirit Stones as taxes to enter the city, Zhou Feng and the others smoothly entered Heavenly Star City.


    Zhou Feng planned to stay in Heavenly Star City for some time, so he wanted to buy a small courtyard.


    However, the houses in Heavenly Star City were too expensive. In the end, he only found a very remote location and bought a small courtyard.


    As for Qian Shang and his daughter, Zhou Feng did not care. He just told them that they could come to him if they had any difficulties. As for how to survive in Heavenly Star City, it was none of his business.


    Fortunately, Qian Qianqian had a Treasure Mouse. She thought that it should be possible to open a small business in Heavenly Star City.


    After he finished studying pill refinement, the pills that he refined would be sold by Qian Shang and his daughter.


    Now, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t wait to start drawing new passive skills.


    That¡¯s right! On the way, he had been holding back from drawing new passive skills.


    The progress bar on the skill panel was already full.


    The first thing Zhou Feng did after settling down was to open the skill panel.


    ¡®It¡¯s been so long since I last drew! I hope I can obtain a good passive skill this time!¡¯


    He rubbed his hands out of habit.


    ¡°Drawing!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    The familiar drawing scene made him feel extremely comfortable..

 Chapter 158 - Appraising Eye

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Appraising Eye: You can appraise most of the items and understand the specific information of these items.


    Zhou Feng blinked his eyes when he saw this new passive skill.


    ¡°This¡­ is so passive!¡±


    Able to appraise most of the items? In that case, didn¡¯t that mean that he didn¡¯t have to worry about misjudging anymore? Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to bringing along an encyclopedia?


    This was especially so for pill refinement, which required all kinds of spirit herbs and strange ingredients.


    Although Zhou Feng had tried his best to memorize them, he still couldn¡¯t remember all of them.


    As long as he saw any medicinal herbs, he would be able to know what the medicinal herbs were called and what their effects were with this Appraising Eye.


    This would save a lot of things.


    Sure enough, it was effective to not smoke after holding it in for so long. To think he was able to draw such a good passive skill in such a short period.


    ¡®Let¡¯s try its effect first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng took a blade of grass out of his storage ring.


    This was one of the many medicinal herbs in his storage ring, but he kept it there because he didn¡¯t know what it was.


    [Spirit Enlightening Grass: A relatively rare spirit herb. Its appearance is similar to ordinary wild grass, so it is often mistaken.


    It is a supplementary ingredient for refining medicinal pills. Its main effect is to awaken a spirit beast¡¯s intelligence.]


    A few lines of words instantly popped out in front of Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes upon placing the Spirit Enlightening Grass in front of him.


    ¡®This is too detailed! So this is called the Spirit-Enlightening Grass!¡¯


    Zhou Feng nodded in satisfaction. So there was such a good thing in his storage ring.


    He would feed it to Big Yellow later.


    The passive Appraising Eye was unexpectedly useful, and it didn¡¯t consume much.


    Oh right! There should be a place to set up a stall in Heavenly Star City!


    Couldn¡¯t he go and pick up scraps with this Appraising Eye?


    Speaking of which, Zhou Feng had never picked up scraps before.


    Other people could pick up treasures easily when they transmigrated, but he had never felt the feeling of picking up scraps before.


    ¡®Oh right! What exactly is that Blood Cicada Jade Pendant?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly remembered the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant that he always carried with him.


    He didn¡¯t know what it was, so he brought it with him. Now that he had the Appraising Eye, he should learn what the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant was.


    As such, he directly took out the Blood Cicada Jade Pendant.


    [A drop of blood from the Blood Cicada: This is a drop of blood from the demonic beast, Blood Cicada. After a long time of baptism, the vicious aura contained in it was completely worn out.


    Long-term wear can enhance a people¡¯s Blood Qi, and it has the effect of nourishing jade.]


    ¡®This is actually the blood of a demonic beast?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not expect that this jade-like thing was actually a drop of blood.


    ¡®Wearing it for a long period of time can increase a person¡¯s Blood Qi!¡¯


    Unfortunately, this item was no longer of any use to him now.


    But no matter what, this could also be considered to have resolved the doubts in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    Having gained such a passive skill, Zhou Feng could no longer hold back his heart.


    ¡®Let¡¯s take a stroll around the outer city first! Then we¡¯ll go to the inner city to take a look!¡¯


    Zhou Feng made up his mind to take a stroll around Heavenly Star City first.


    He walked to the main road and randomly asked a question.


    ¡°You¡¯re asking about Treasure-Seeking Street, right? It¡¯s over there. Just keep walking straight ahead!¡±


    A warm-hearted person pointed ahead.


    ¡®Treasure-Seeking Street?¡¯


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what Treasure-Seeking Street was for, he still walked forward along the road.


    Soon, he arrived at a noisy place where many people were gathered.


    ¡°Have you heard? Today, a piece of Spirit Marrow was opened in the gambling den!¡±


    ¡°Really? A piece of Spirit Marrow was opened?¡±


    ¡°Of course it¡¯s true! I heard that it even alerted the bigshots in the inner city!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    ¡®Gambling den? Spirit Marrow? Stone gambling in this world?¡¯


    After hearing these pieces of information, Zhou Feng got closer to see why so many people were gathered there.


    It turned out that these people had gathered there to wait for the gambling den to open.


    Stone gambling! It also existed in this world!


    This bet was on the stones dug out of the Spirit Stone Lode.


    Due to environmental factors, Spirit Stones also had various forms. Other than the most common Spirit Stones, there were also all kinds of strange Spirit Stones.


    For example, fire-elemental Spirit Stones. Because they had been infected by the fire elements all year round, such Spirit Stones could already be used as a kind of weapon-refining material.


    Moreover, there was also something like Spirit Marrow. This was equivalent to a concentrated Spirit Stone, and it had all kinds of special functions.


    The biggest function was that it could be used to set up a Spirit-Gathering Formation, and it could be maintained for a long time.


    If a Spirit Marrow were used to set up a Spirit Gathering Formation, a small cultivation clan wouldn¡¯t need to worry about Spirit Stones.


    One could imagine how much this Spirit Marrow was worth.


    ¡®Betting on stones? Betting on Spirit Stones? Isn¡¯t this just my cup of tea?¡¯


    After Zhou Feng understood the situation, a strange expression appeared on his face because he had just obtained the passive Appraising Eye.


    However, whether the Appraising Eye was useful or not, he still needed to test it out.


    After waiting for a while, the gambling den finally opened.


    Everyone couldn¡¯t wait to enter.


    When it was Zhou Feng¡¯s turn, he suddenly realized that entering the gambling den actually required a Spirit Stone guarantee!


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng actually didn¡¯t have enough Spirit Stones on him.


    This was because he needed 1,000 Spirit Stones as a guarantee.


    Previously, he did not have any restraint due to his extravagance and the Spirit Stones he fed to Big Yellow.


    There were only a few hundred Spirit Stones left in his storage ring.


    ¡®I don¡¯t have any more Spirit Stones?¡¯ Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    At this moment, a sneer sounded from behind him.


    ¡°Hey! The poor people in front! If you don¡¯t have any Spirit Stones, hurry up and get out of the way! Don¡¯t take this Young Master¡¯s words seriously if you dare!


    ¡°Today, this Young Master is going to slaughter everyone!¡±


    A pale-faced man walking in light footsteps was waving a folding fan in his hand with a contemptuous expression on his face.


    When the gatekeeper of the gambling den saw Zhou Feng standing there in a daze, his expression didn¡¯t look too good.


    Moreover, there were many people lining up behind him.


    ¡°I¡¯ll vouch for him!¡±


    Originally, Zhou Feng planned to take out the soul gourd as a guarantee. This supreme-grade soul artifact was worth at least 1,000 Spirit Stones!


    But unexpectedly, a voice that sounded like an oriole entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    Everyone looked behind them and saw a young girl that was filled with a youthful aura walking over with quick steps.


    This girl was about 17 or 18 years old. She had an oval face and wore a long yellow dress. She looked elegant but also gave people a feeling that she was full of vitality.


    ¡°My Little Rong? You¡ª¡±


    When Wang Shu saw this woman, he immediately became anxious.


    ¡°Who¡¯s your Little Rong!?¡±


    When Li Rong heard Wang Shu call her name, a disgusted expression immediately appeared on her face.


    ¡°I¡¯ll vouch for this person! Now you can go in!¡±


    Li Rong walked to Zhou Feng¡¯s side and patted her chest.


    Although Li Rong was only in her 20s, her figure was top-notch.


    Wang Shu¡¯s eyes were fixed on Li Rong without trying to hide it.


    Now everyone knew why Li Rong looked at Wang Shu with disgust..

 Chapter 159 - The Amorous Prodigal Hearts Effect

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Wang Shu did not try to conceal his lascivious gaze.


    And from that expression, Wang Shu did not feel that there was anything wrong with his behavior at all.


    ¡°So disgusting!¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s face revealed a hint of disgust, and then it seemed as if she deliberately pulled Zhou Feng¡¯s hand and walked into the gambling den.


    With the assurance of the eldest daughter of the Li Clan, the gatekeeper did not say much.


    ¡°Hey! Little Rong, don¡¯t go!¡±


    When Wang Shu saw this, he immediately followed her into the gambling den.


    After entering the gambling den, Wang Shu directly stopped Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This place is not somewhere a poor peasant like you can waltz into! Gambling for Spirit Stones is not a game. Once you lose everything, there will be no place to cry!


    ¡°Also! Get your dirty hands off her!¡±


    Wang Shu¡¯s current performance fully showed what it meant to be a good-for-nothing.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng had not seen such a person for a long time.


    Such an arrogant person who did not have much strength would probably be eaten alive in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    If one¡¯s strength were not enough in the Tri-Gu Sect, they would still be quite tactful even if one had a backer.


    Perhaps it was because this was Heavenly Star City, and the environment was safer, unlike the Tri-Gu Sect, which was so remote that people like Wang Shu would rarely appear.


    ¡°What has it got to do with you? I¡¯m happy to do this!¡±


    Before Zhou Feng could answer, Li Rong was the first to speak.


    It seemed that the more anxious Wang Shu was, the happier she was.


    At that moment, Li Rong¡¯s face swelled up, and she looked very unhappy.


    It had to be said that even when she was angry, Li Rong still looked extremely beautiful.


    That angry look gave people a feeling of novelty as if she was a fairy that had descended into the mortal world.


    She was so pure that people could not help but pity her.


    This was the most beautiful woman that Zhou Feng had laid eyes on apart from Leng Maner.


    However, beauty was beauty, and he did not have time to continue arguing with these two people.


    Also, Zhou Feng felt that a simple person like Li Rong would not be able to live for long.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! Please remove your hands! If the two of you have something to say, go and argue on your own!¡±


    Zhou Feng gently grabbed Li Rong¡¯s small hand and released it slightly.


    Compared to the grudges between these two people, he was still interested in the stones in front of him.


    Could the passive Appraising Eye be able to identify the stones dug out of the vein?


    Li Rong only felt her small hand being gently touched by a large warm hand. Then, she simply let go.


    That feeling was extremely special.


    Li Rong looked at Zhou Feng, and her ears instantly turned red.


    This was because the man in front of her was not exactly the same as the one she had met before. The sense of distance that he exuded at all times made Li Rong want to understand Zhou Feng further.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng seemed to be emitting a unique charm that made people feel good about him.


    What Zhou Feng did not know was that Li Rong was so proactive due to a certain passive skill of his.


    Amorous Prodigal Heart: Your Charm +1! And every time you experience a relationship, your Charm will increase by 1 point! (Max: 10 points)!


    This passive effect was not obvious in the environment of the Tri-Gu Sect¡ªit could even be said that there had almost been no effect.


    Zhou Feng did not feel anything special about the additional points of charm. After all, the people in the Tri-Gu Sect were extremely realistic, and strength was what most disciples pursued.


    But when facing Li Rong, this passive effect was obvious.


    After all, Li Rong had never done such an outrageous thing before.


    ¡°You!¡±


    The jealousy in Wang Shu¡¯s eyes was about to burst out upon noticing Li Rong¡¯s bashful expression.


    Wang Shu had always regarded Li Rong as something in his pocket, and the two clans had been on good terms for generations.


    Li Rong was already his woman in Wang Shu¡¯s heart.


    But what was the situation now? Wang Shu only felt a green glow above his head.


    ¡°You¡ª¡±


    Just as Wang Shu was about to speak, Zhou Feng stared at him.


    A deep-seated killing intent arose.


    Zhou Feng really didn¡¯t have time to waste on these two, so he spoke straightforwardly and coldly. ¡°Don¡¯t waste my time! And you! Given your character, you won¡¯t live for more than 10 years!¡±


    The first half of the sentence was directed at Wang Shu, and the second half was directed at Li Rong.


    This kind of ¡®little white rabbit¡¯ personality was really not the type that Zhou Feng liked.


    Compared to this kind of little white rabbit that didn¡¯t know how the world worked, Zhou Feng liked domineering women like Leng Maner.


    Wang Shu and Li Rong were instantly stunned by Zhou Feng.


    After getting rid of these two people, he looked at the various stones placed on the ground.


    After Zhou Feng took a closer look, a line of words soon appeared.


    [Spirit Stone Mine Waste Stone: A Spirit Stone¡¯s companion ore. It contains a small amount of Spiritual Qi, and it doesn¡¯t have much value.]


    ¡®It really works!? The Appraising Eye can identify these stones!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was bewildered after confirming that the Appraising Eye could identify these stones.


    Perhaps today, he would be able to make a shocking killing.


    Wang Shu, who had been frightened just now, also came back to his senses at that moment.


    ¡®I, the dignified Young Master of the Wang Clan, was actually frightened?¡¯


    Wang Shu felt ashamed that he had been frightened by Zhou Feng just now. Soon, he noticed that Zhou Feng was actually observing a piece of waste rock up close.


    A grin immediately spread on his face, and he couldn¡¯t help but start to ridicule, ¡°This rock is green with white! It¡¯s a typical accompanying ore. You can tell it¡¯s a waste rock at a glance, but some people are still looking at it!¡±


    Wang Shu shook his head.


    Wang Shu did not know if it was because of Zhou Feng¡¯s murderous aura, but he deliberately moved a little further away when commenting on it.


    As for Li Rong, after being rebuked by Zhou Feng, her nose instantly turned red. She almost went to the inner hall.


    ¡°There¡¯s really nothing to see with this stone! It¡¯s just to make up the numbers here!¡±


    ¡°The stones outside are basically here to make up the numbers! If I had to say, all the top-quality ones are in the inner hall!¡±


    Some people beside Wang Shu chimed in upon hearing his comments.


    The stones outside had been left there for an unknown amount of time. At most, only newbies would be interested in them to test the waters.


    Zhou Feng did not care about these voices at all. He only used the Appraising Eye to appraise them one by one.


    Wang Shu¡¯s face was filled with even more disdain upon seeing him carefully observe every stone outside.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go! There¡¯s nothing interesting about these stones outside! Let¡¯s go in and take a look!¡±


    Wang Shu¡¯s courage seemed to have recovered. He pretended to be free and easy as he walked into the inner hall.


    At the same time, he gestured for a servant to keep a close eye on Zhou Feng.


    No one would be able to leave Heavenly Star City safely after offending Young Master Wang.


    Of course, Young Master Wang was still smart. First, he asked one servant to keep an eye on Zhou Feng while another servant went to investigate.


    He wanted to check Zhou Feng¡¯s background.


    Although Wang Shu was a silkpants, he was not a fool. He could be considered as a tactful person.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s background was very powerful, then he would apologize to him. If he didn¡¯t have any background, then he would just wait for his death!


    As long as Zhou Feng was below the Purple Mansion realm, he basically couldn¡¯t escape from Wang Shu¡¯s grasp.


    After calming down, Wang Shu displayed a completely different face from the previous hedonistic one..

 Chapter 160 - Playing It Big

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Aunt! Do you really think I won¡¯t live for more than 10 years with this character of mine?¡±


    Li Rong was holding back her tears in the back hall, looking pitiful.


    A beautiful woman with a graceful figure was lying on her side on the chaise longue, listening to Li Rong¡¯s sobs seriously.


    This beautiful woman was lying on her side on the chaise longue, like a noble and lazy cat. Her ink-like black hair flowed down to her waist, exhibiting a mature temperament.


    Her red lips were not stained, but they were bright red. She gave off a smile that was not a smile, giving off an unfathomable feeling.


    ¡°Oh? Who said that to you?¡± Li Manya frowned slightly.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it! Aunty! Answer me!¡±


    Li Rong was like a kitten. She held Li Manya¡¯s hand and shook it vigorously.


    This made Li Manya¡¯s curves even more turbulent, instantly causing the scene to become sexy.


    ¡°As long as our Li Clan is still around, our little darling will definitely be able to live for 100 years!¡±


    Li Manya did not directly answer Li Rong¡¯s repeated questions.


    Honestly speaking, given Li Rong¡¯s little white rabbit character, she definitely would not be able to live for long if she did not have a powerful clan backing her.


    All of this was due to the Li Clan spoiling Li Rong too much.


    This was because the entire generation of the Li Clan in Heavenly Star City was male, and only Li Rong was a girl.


    Therefore, she was usually afraid of falling.


    Li Rong¡¯s three older brothers were even more protective of each other.


    That Young Master of the Wang Clan looked at Li Rong in the wrong way.


    In turn, he had once been beaten up by Li Rong¡¯s three older brothers. Under such circumstances, Li Rong¡¯s harmless character had already been formed.


    By the time everyone realized that something was wrong, it was already too late.


    ¡°As expected¡­¡±


    Li Rong almost held back the tears in her eyes upon hearing her aunt¡¯s reply.


    Although she knew that Li Rong would have to suffer more setbacks before she could truly grow up, when Li Manya saw her Rong like this, she really could not help it.


    She immediately called for someone to see what had just happened.


    ¡°Don¡¯t! Aunt!¡±


    Seeing her aunt¡¯s aggressive demeanor, Li Rong instantly panicked. Given her aunt¡¯s protective personality, something bad would probably happen.


    ¡­


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that a Divine Ability expert was prepared to cause trouble for him right now.


    At that moment, he had looked through almost all of the stones outside.


    [Waste Stone:¡­]


    ¡®All of them are actually waste stones! As expected, nine out of ten wagers lose!¡¯


    The stones outside were basically all waste stones. There was nothing inside.


    The gambling den had actually dared to price the waste stones for a few hundred Spirit Stones, and there were quite a few people who bought them.


    This was simply ridiculous!


    ¡®There¡¯s one more. If it doesn¡¯t work, I can only enter the inner hall to take a look.¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the last stone.


    [Multi-Layered Stone: The outer layer is that of an ordinary stone, but there was a small Hive Stone inside.]


    ¡®Many layers? There is actually something like that?


    ¡®Hive Stone? What is that?¡¯


    Originally, Zhou Feng did not hold much hope, but he did not expect the last stone to have something.


    According to the information given by the Appraising Eye, this stone actually contained a Hive Stone.


    However, Zhou Feng did not know what this Hive Stone was.


    The Appraising Eye could not penetrate the Multi-Layered Stone¡¯s outer layer to check the Hive Stone¡¯s description.


    ¡®Only 300 Spirit Stones! Just enough!¡¯


    Zhou Feng took a look at the price. Such a stone actually cost 300 Spirit Stones.


    Even Zhou Feng, who had no concept of the value of Spirit Stones, felt that the price was ridiculously high.


    If it wasn¡¯t for the Appraising Eye, it would be like throwing Spirit Stones into the sea!


    ¡®Looks like it¡¯s time to consider buying a cauldron to refine pills!¡¯


    Zhou Feng also felt that he didn¡¯t have enough Spirit Stones. It was imperative to buy a cauldron to refine pills and earn Spirit Stones.


    There was also a Purple Mansion cultivation technique that he needed to pay attention to.


    He remembered that there were some auction houses in Heavenly Star City. When the time came, he would go take a look.


    After taking a mental note, he picked up the washbasin-sized stone and prepared to walk into the inner hall to pay the bill.


    ¡°Yo! After choosing for so long, you chose this lousy stone?¡±


    Wang Shu, who was still choosing stones in the inner hall, saw Zhou Feng actually walk in with a stone in his arms. He instantly began to mock and ridicule him.


    Compared to his previous appearance, the current Wang Shu was even more arrogant. His chin was almost raised to the sky.


    This was because no one was allowed to make a move in the inner hall. A Purple Mansion expert was overseeing this place.


    No matter what reason you had, as long as you made a move here, that Purple Mansion expert would be alerted.


    After entering the inner hall, the first thing Zhou Feng felt was a wave of pressure.


    ¡®Is someone monitoring me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s powerful senses warmed him that an expert was staring at him.


    He raised his head and saw that a mature, beautiful woman was staring at him, and next to her was Li Rong, who he had reprimanded earlier.


    ¡°Aiya! He¡¯s looking over!¡±


    When Li Rong saw Zhou Feng looking at her, she moved back like a frightened rabbit.


    On the contrary, Li Manya was much calmer. She looked straight at Zhou Feng without the slightest bit of embarrassment.


    ¡°Oh? A Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator? His cultivation is barely passable, but why is his aura so messy? How does he cultivate?


    ¡°And I can¡¯t see through this brat? Interesting!¡±


    Because this involved Li Rong, Li Manya carefully sized up Zhou Feng.


    Compared to the younger generation in Heavenly Star City, a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator wasn¡¯t considered top tier, but they were still above average.


    It was just that without the guidance of a Master, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was extremely messy, giving people the feeling that he was cultivating recklessly. It was as if he had suffered many injuries, and his body¡¯s condition was bizarre.


    Also, with her Purple Mansion cultivation, she was actually unable to see through this fellow completely.


    This person had probably just entered Heavenly Star City, but she didn¡¯t know what he was up to.


    ¡®Purple Mansion realm?¡¯ Zhou Feng pursed his lips slightly.


    To think that there would be a Purple Mansion expert in any random place. It seemed like Heavenly Star City really did have a deep background.


    After looking at Li Manya for a while, Zhou Feng retracted his gaze and walked toward the counter to pay.


    As for Wang Shu, he had been chattering beside Zhou Feng¡¯s ear the entire time. As for what he was saying, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t hear it clearly either.


    After receiving the Spirit Stones, the gambling den¡¯s staff member asked Zhou Feng, ¡°Do you want to cut the stone here?¡±


    The gambling den provided a free stone-cutting service here, and Zhou Feng was too lazy to do it himself, so he let the old master here cut the stone.


    ¡°This stone¡­ isn¡¯t that good!¡±


    ¡°There shouldn¡¯t be anything inside!¡±


    ¡°Not necessarily! As long as it¡¯s not cut, anything is possible!¡±


    The stone-cutting process attracted a lot of people to watch, and they started to comment.


    ¡°If you can cut something out of this stone, I¡¯ll swallow feces and commit suicide on the spot!¡±


    Originally, the crowd¡¯s enthusiasm was just so-so. After all, the quality of this stone was just subpar.


    But who could imagine that Wang Shu would suddenly utter such a sentence?


    The atmosphere immediately became lively!

 Chapter 161 - Like a Clown

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Just this piece of waste rock naturally wouldn¡¯t attract too much attention.


    After all, most of the people present could afford to gamble on rocks, and they all had quite a bit of wealth.


    They had seen rocks of better quality being cut before.


    But if they added the Young Master of the Wang Clan¡¯s wager, it would be different.


    Although it was basically impossible to cut anything out of this rock, what if? If it really came out, would Wang Shu keep his promise and swallow feces on the spot.


    ¡°Crack!¡±


    The old master who was responsible for cutting the stone was very experienced. He first cut along the outer layer slowly.


    Then, he slowly went deeper.


    When the outer layer of the stone slowly fell off, the surrounding water vapor suddenly increased.


    ¡°It came out? It can¡¯t be!¡±


    ¡°What a coincidence! It had this kind of stone inside!?¡±


    ¡°It seems to be real!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Such a sudden change shocked everyone because there was really something in this stone!


    The people next to them were dumbfounded.


    The probability of this was too low. They didn¡¯t expect that they would run into it this time.


    ¡°Impossible! How can this broken stone have something!?¡±


    Wang Shu was the one who couldn¡¯t accept it the most. His face and neck were all red.


    His eyes were staring at the stone in front of him.


    ¡°This is¡­ a Hive Stone!?¡±


    A stone full of apertures was displayed in front of everyone¡¯s eyes.


    The old master responsible for cutting the stone immediately recognized it.


    This was a Hive Stone.


    ¡°It seems to be a Hive Stone!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately shifted his gaze to this Hive Stone.


    Immediately, the Appraising Eye began to work.


    [Hive Stone: A unique stone that can continuously gather the surrounding water vapor and then discharge various types of spring water from the many apertures.]


    ¡®This doesn¡¯t seem to be of much use, right?¡¯


    Seeing this description, Zhou Feng frowned slightly. This Hive Stone seemed to be just like that. There was nothing special about it.


    ¡°Hive Stone? Is it really a Hive Stone?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s rich! He has struck it rich!¡±


    ¡°Haven¡¯t the Southern Sea Dragons been collecting Hive Stones recently? The Dragon Clan doesn¡¯t lack money at all!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After hearing that there was actually a Hive Stone among this broken stone, the surrounding people instantly cried out in surprise.


    This Hive Stone had only been a little strange before and hadn¡¯t been very valuable.


    But recently, the Southern Sea Dragons had been purchasing this stone, and each stone was worth at least 10,000 Spirit Stones.


    There was no other way! The Southern Sea Dragons occupied the entire Southern Sea, and all they had to do was cough out money.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have only used a few hundred Spirit Stones to buy this stone, and with just a flip of the hand, he had exchanged it for 10,000 Spirit Stones. He would even be able to build a relationship with the Dragon Clan.


    This was simply a huge profit!


    The most important thing was that Zhou Feng had not paid a steep price. He had just randomly picked a stone.


    What was called getting rich overnight? This was getting rich overnight!


    ¡°10,000 Spirit Stones?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not expect that this Hive Stone was actually so valuable.


    If that were the case, he seemed to have the starting capital to purchase a cauldron and medicinal ingredients.


    Although he wanted to refine pills and earn Spirit Stones, he still needed to earn some starting capital.


    Now, this stone seemed to be enough.


    ¡°Impossible! This is impossible!¡±


    Wang Shu simply did not believe everything that was happening before his eyes. This kind of thing was practically impossible.a


    Why did it have to happen?


    What frightened Wang Shu the most was that he knew that Li Rong was currently watching from the second floor.


    If Zhou Feng took this opportunity to make him fulfill his promise¡­


    Then¡­


    Just thinking about it made Wang Shu want to immediately find a place to drill a hole and dive into it.


    ¡°So powerful! He actually cut something out directly!¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s face was full of admiration at this time.


    ¡°It¡¯s a little strange! It doesn¡¯t seem like it¡¯s all luck. This kid has been full of confidence since the beginning!¡±


    Li Manya continued to stare at Zhou Feng. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that this person was strange.


    His aura was clearly chaotic, but it still gave her a sense of danger.


    ¡°10,000 Spirit Stones?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s really lucky!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When they heard that this Hive Stone was worth 10,000 Spirit Stones, many people¡¯s eyes turned red.


    Sensing that the atmosphere didn¡¯t feel right, Zhou Feng immediately put away the Hive Stone.


    Originally, he wanted to look at the stones around him with his Appraising Eye and cut a few more stones.


    However, he decided to discard this idea after this sudden turn of events. If he continued to cut the stones with his Appraising Eye, it would be easy for others to be jealous.


    He was not strong enough, so he had to keep a low profile.


    ¡°Where can I sell the stone?¡± Zhou Feng asked calmly.


    The old master who cut the stone was stunned when he heard Zhou Feng¡¯s question. Then, he gave a simple answer, ¡°Someone from the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion in the inner city will buy it from you! And the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion seems to be holding an auction recently!¡±


    ¡°Thank you!¡±


    After receiving the answer, Zhou Feng simply thanked him.


    Then, he slowly turned around and left without saying anything.


    The whole process was as if he had waved his sleeves and didn¡¯t take a single cloud away.


    His expression didn¡¯t change much, not even when he found out that this Hive Stone was worth 10,000 Spirit Stones.


    Firstly, Zhou Feng really didn¡¯t feel much toward Spirit Stones. After all, he had had a mountain of Spirit Stones in his storage ring before.


    Secondly, he was used to the currency of his previous life, so the value of Spirit Stones wasn¡¯t too deep.


    As long as he had enough, he would be fine. Now that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t pressured, he felt that he was a lot more carefree.


    As for Wang Shu¡¯s words, he had never looked him in the eye from the beginning to the end.


    He had no intention of letting Wang Shu commit suicide by swallowing feces on the spot.


    This was because it was almost impossible for Wang Shu to do this. If he forced Wang Shu to commit suicide by swallowing feces, at most, it would escalate the conflict between the two parties.


    Therefore, there was no need to pay attention to Wang Shu.


    However, if Wang Shu continued to jump around in front of him, he would choose to take action directly.


    He would not compare himself to others. Taking action directly was his personality.


    In any case, he did not want to say any nonsense.


    And it was precisely because of this that he had not looked at Wang Shu from the beginning to the end.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude actually made Wang Shu extremely embarrassed.


    ¡®What is the meaning of this? Is he completely disregarding me?¡¯


    When Wang Shu saw that Zhou Feng was treating him with disregard, his heart was set ablaze.


    But just as Wang Shu was about to stop Zhou Feng¡­ a wave of killing intent appeared once again.


    That deep-seated killing intent caused Wang Shu to freeze on the spot.


    ¡®Does he dare to make a move here?¡¯


    The dark fire in Wang Shu¡¯s heart was extinguished in an instant. By the time he came back to his senses, Zhou Feng had already walked far away.


    The people around him also looked at Wang Shu with strange gazes.


    At that moment, Wang Shu inexplicably felt that he was a joke.


    Compared to the calm and carefree Zhou Feng, Wang Shu, who had been jumping up and down to attract attention, was really a clown.


    Li Rong completely took in the scene just now.


    Her already unfavorable impression of Wang Shu dropped to the freezing point in an instant. At the same time, in comparison, her favorable impression of Zhou Feng rose sharply.


    After all, the gap between the two sides had been too obvious in their performance just now..

 Chapter 162 - Lunatic, Indeed

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What? Is this little girl thinking of love?¡±


    Looking at Li Rong, who had been giggling foolishly, Li Manya pinched her little nose.


    ¡°No! Of course not!¡±


    Li Rong, who had been immersed in her fantasy just a moment ago, immediately woke up when she was pinched on the nose.


    Although she denied it, her face instantly turned red.


    Under such circumstances, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Li Rong¡¯s words did not mean what she said.


    ¡°Alright! I don¡¯t like the Young Master of the Wang Clan anyway. Since I am willing to help you, go and investigate that brat!¡±


    ¡°Aunt! You¡­¡±


    Upon hearing Li Manya¡¯s words, Li Rong immediately ran into the room shyly.


    Actually, as Li Rong grew up, the pressure of marriage was also growing. After all, as the pearl of the Li Clan, who knew how many people wanted to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan and rely on the Li Clan to further their cultivation path?


    Originally, Wang Shu was her biggest pursuer, but Li Rong was always unwilling and kept delaying this matter. Li Rong¡¯s greatest wish every day was to find her ideal husband.


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng had appeared.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng had no idea that he had become a candidate for the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    At present, he was wandering around Heavenly Star City.


    Coupled with the newly acquired Appraising Eye, Zhou Feng did not feel bored. Instead, he carefully observed every place he went.


    It was as if Grandma Liu had entered the grand viewing garden.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    [The Foundation Stone of the Heavenly Star Formation: 1 of the 3,000 Foundation Stones of the Heavenly Star Formation. The surface of the stone has a special formation as a cover.]


    As he looked, Zhou Feng actually found a Foundation Stone of the Heavenly Star Formation on the street.


    He didn¡¯t expect the Appraising Eye to be able to see this.


    This was too strong!


    ¡®Huh?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt a person rapidly approaching him. He quickly turned his body to the side and evaded as a person was coming at him head-on.


    That person directly fell to the ground and complained first, ¡°Aiyo! Don¡¯t you watch where you¡¯re going!?¡±


    Zhou Feng stood there and quietly watched this person¡¯s performance.


    To be honest, he did not expect that there was actually a scam in this world.


    Moreover, he directly touched his body. This was really strange.


    This person stood up, dusted himself off, pointed at Zhou Feng, and warned, ¡°Fortunately, I am fine! Otherwise, you wouldn¡¯t be able to leave Heavenly Star City today!¡±


    It seemed to be a simple friction.


    ¡®Just this?¡¯ Zhou Feng was a little puzzled.


    ¡°Wait? Where is it? Where¡¯s my Hive Stone? Why did it suddenly disappear!


    ¡°It¡¯s you! It¡¯s definitely you! You must have stolen my Hive Stone!¡±


    The next moment, Zhou Feng instantly understood that the person in front of him was coming for his Hive Stone.


    ¡®So this was his plan¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng had a Hive Stone on him. If he found it on him, Zhou Feng would have no way to defend himself.


    At the same time, using such a trick indicated that the person in front of him definitely knew that he possessed a Hive Stone.


    Then the person in front of Zhou Feng was someone from the gambling den.


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes as he thought, ¡®If they follow the script to the tee, a ¡°righteous¡± passerby should jump out now¡­¡¯


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    A young man who was adored by the stars slowly walked over.


    ¡°Young Master! This person stole your Hive Stone! Just now, we bumped into each other, and I fell down, and then¡­¡±


    That person began to explain what had supposedly happened just now.


    And the group of people in front of him quietly surrounded Zhou Feng.


    The passersby did not find this scene strange and hurriedly went around to continue doing their own things.


    ¡°Brother, in order to prove your innocence, I wonder if you can take out your storage ring and let me check it!¡±


    The young man made a seemingly reasonable request. He then added another sentence as if he was afraid that Zhou Feng would not agree, ¡°Regardless of whether there is a Hive Stone in your storage ring, I will compensate you with 10,000 Spirit Stones!


    ¡°If there is a Hive Stone, I will also use 30,000 Spirit Stones to purchase it from you. How about it?¡±


    Hearing this condition, Zhou Feng did not have the slightest reaction. He only looked around indifferently.


    ¡®Only this person in front of me is a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator. His strength seems to be inferior to mine!¡¯


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng had already begun to assess the strength of these people.


    Hand over the storage ring? Don¡¯t joke around!


    These people were clearly here to snatch the Hive Stone. These conditions sounded very enticing, but this was just an empty promise. There was no guarantee at all.


    If this person in front of him took his storage ring and directly fled, then what would happen if the others stopped him?


    Only a fool would pass the storage ring to someone else in such a situation.


    The young man looked at Zhou Feng, who did not react at all, and his face turned cold as he threatened him, ¡°I hope you can cooperate with us. Otherwise¡ª¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was calm as he asked a question, ¡°I don¡¯t think fighting is allowed in Heavenly Star City, right?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s true that fighting is not allowed! But the city guards are not on this street right now, and my brother is from the city guards¡­¡±


    Upon hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s question, the young man thought that Zhou Feng wanted to rely on this not to give in, so he continued to threaten him.


    ¡®The city guards are not on this street?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard this, his eyes flashed.


    ¡®Blood-Burning Technique! Spiritual Attachment Art!¡¯


    Various avatars appeared behind Zhou Feng, and countless tentacles started to swing around.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng did not hold back at all. It was the kind of explosion that did not care about his body at all.


    The explosion of power was too fierce, so many parts of Zhou Feng¡¯s body cracked, and blood splattered everywhere.


    However, he did not care about all of this. After resting for a few minutes, these injuries would all be healed.


    Zhou Feng punched out, and the young man¡¯s skin was broken inch by inch.


    ¡°You dare to attack!?¡± The young man uttered an extremely stupid sentence in shock.


    How dare he! How dare he make a move!? And he was directly using self-harming techniques? Was there a need!?


    There was no need to make a move! Making a move in Heavenly Star City was very risky.


    Even if one had connections, they would be locked up once the city guards caught them.


    The young man had said all these things earlier to scare Zhou Feng because he knew that Zhou Feng had just arrived in Heavenly Star City.


    He didn¡¯t seem to be that familiar with Heavenly Star City.


    But he never thought that the person in front of him was a madman. Not only did he directly attack, but he even used a few self-harming secret techniques!


    How would such actions benefit him? Was this madness?


    Zhou Feng directly killed the young man with a punch!


    ¡°One!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng had already attacked, he wasn¡¯t going to hold back and erupted with all his strength.


    His terrifying physical body punched and killed all the people surrounding him on the street.


    ¡®I have to leave this place!¡¯


    The entire process had taken less than a minute. After dealing with these people, he quickly fled the scene.


    This had happened so suddenly that the people around him were stunned for a second before they screamed..

 Chapter 163 - Son-In-Law at the Door?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®It seems that it¡¯s not very safe in Heavenly Star City either¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng restrained his aura and prepared to enter the inner city from another direction.


    The injuries caused by his full strength had also completely recovered.


    It had to be said that having the passive Tenacious Heart allowed him to use all kinds of secret techniques without any scruples.


    These secret arts that had huge side effects might be very harmful to others, and even their bodies may be unable to withstand the backlash after a few uses.


    However, Zhou Feng could use them without any restrictions. After using them, he only needed to leave the battle state for a dozen seconds.


    His injuries would be able to recover almost immediately. At most, it would only consume some of his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi.


    He might need to find more self-harming secret arts based on this advantage.


    Thinking about it, whenever he was about to fight, he could directly use eight or ten self-harming secret arts.


    His opponent would never think that someone would be so crazy.


    He would first cripple himself without any regard for his life. If he was caught off guard, he would take the initiative.


    Zhou Feng had this idea because Heavenly Star City did not seem as safe as he thought.


    It was as if someone had surrounded him on the street.


    It was as if fighting in the city was allowed as long as the city guards did not capture him.


    In fact, Heavenly Star City did have such an unspoken rule.


    You could fight in the city, but you had to be quick and not damage any buildings.


    Once the surrounding buildings were damaged, the city guards would definitely find trouble with you.


    Moreover, if the city guards caught you on the spot, then no one would have any face to speak of.


    Even the few ancient clans in Heavenly Star City could not interfere.


    All of this stemmed from the City Lord¡¯s prestige.


    But even so, very few people dared to make a move in the city directly.


    The risk was too great and not worth it. Once caught, at the very least, both sides would suffer heavy losses.


    ¡­


    ¡°What did he do? And he even escaped? He¡¯s really bold!¡±


    Li Manya had just received news about Zhou Feng.


    Obviously, even Li Manya was astounded that Zhou Feng dared to make a move in the city.


    He really had just entered Heavenly Star City from the outside. He was really foolish and bold.


    ¡°Other than these, can you find out anything else?¡±


    Li Manya also disliked Wang Shu very much, so she did not want Li Rong to marry such a good-for-nothing fellow.


    In addition, Zhou Feng seemed to be a little pleasing to the eye this time.


    Thus, she had sent someone to investigate Zhou Feng¡¯s background.


    ¡°He doesn¡¯t seem to have any background. He seems to be a vagabond cultivator who followed the caravan from the west. More specifically, it will take some time!¡±


    ¡°Vagabond cultivator? If he¡¯s a vagabond cultivator, then that can explain his chaotic aura!¡±


    Li Manya nodded.


    If he was a vagabond cultivator, then it could perfectly explain why Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was so strange.


    This was entirely because there was no one to teach him.


    Without anyone to teach him, he should have cultivated on his own. Since he had cultivated to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm at such a young age, his talent could be considered not bad.


    When compared to the disciples of the clans and sects, he was a monster. This earned him the right to marry into the Li Clan.


    From the looks of it, he was a good candidate for Li Rong.


    His talent was decent, but the upper limit was lacking. By relying on the Li Clan¡¯s background, Li Rong could completely suppress Zhou Feng.


    Li Rong also did not have to worry about being bullied.


    The most important point, however, was that Li Rong liked him.


    ¡°The most important thing is that he doesn¡¯t have a background. This way, he can be controlled at will. Compared to those people with ulterior motives, this is the best choice!¡±


    Li Manya had already begun to think about the benefits of Zhou Feng becoming the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    Without a doubt, Zhou Feng was very suitable to become the clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    Recently, the arrival of the South Sea Dragons in Heavenly Star City had caused some changes.


    The Li Clan still tried their best not to interact with other families.


    ¡°But from the looks of it, this person still has some pride in his heart. I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t be easy to accept this!¡±


    Li Manya was still very accurate in judging people.


    She knew that this Zhou Feng had his own pride in his heart, and he was an extremely arrogant fellow.


    If Li Rong¡¯s personality didn¡¯t change, taming this person would be very difficult.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng had no idea that a certain someone wanted to capture him and take him in as the clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    At present, he had just entered the inner city of Heavenly Star City.


    ¡°The density of the Spiritual Qi¡­¡±


    As soon as he entered the inner city, Zhou Feng felt that the concentration of Spiritual Qi in the surroundings was extremely high.


    This was even higher than the concentration of Spiritual Qi in the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s blessed land.


    One had to know that the area of this inner city was much larger than the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s blessed land.


    Moreover, this Spiritual Qi contained some special traits, and he felt as if his body was being nourished.


    No wonder the requirements for entering the inner city were so high.


    They restricted cultivators below the Soul Altar realm to enter, and the cultivators had to pay 100 Spirit Stones.


    This amount of Spirit Stones could only allow you to stroll around the inner city.


    Once nighttime came, those who didn¡¯t own any property in the inner city would all be expelled.


    Just by relying on this entrance fee, Heavenly Star City should be making a fortune.


    What¡¯s more, almost no one could make a profit in the inner city. One could not cultivate in the inner city, nor could they absorb much Spiritual Qi by relying on passive absorption of Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®Is that the Heavenly Star Tree?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the center of the inner city. There was a towering tree there.


    The huge crown of the tree directly enveloped the City Lord¡¯s mansion. On the tree, there were many fruits that looked like stars.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t stay for long before continuing forward. He didn¡¯t forget his purpose in entering the inner city.


    His purpose of entering the inner city this time was to sell the Hive Stone in his hands and then check if there were any Purple Mansion cultivation techniques.


    It would be best if he could buy a few medicinal ingredients so that he could refine pills after returning.


    Not long after, he arrived at the legendary Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    According to his previous inquiries, this Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was a branch of a super-powerful force, the Treasure Pavilion.


    One could buy almost anything there. Even if they didn¡¯t have the item one needed for the time being, they could still report it to the person in charge of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    If one had any goods, the people of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion would inform the interested party.


    As long as one had enough Spirit Stones or treasures, they could exchange them for anything in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    ¡®This is the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion?¡¯


    Upon reaching the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion¡¯s entrance, Zhou Feng was shocked by the scene before him.


    The entire building in front of him was elegant and peaceful. There were strange trees and rare herbs planted in the courtyard. The stone materials scattered around, looking like strange rocks and artificial mountains.


    That¡¯s right! The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion¡¯s entrance was actually a large courtyard entrance.


    And the Treasure Tower in the center was also ancient, giving off a sense of history.


    It was completely different from what he had imagined. It was a completely elegant place.


    Zhou Feng was surprised, but he walked to the door and directly stated the purpose of his visit. ¡°Hello! May I know if this is the place to sell Hive Stones?¡±


    ¡°Hive Stone? Yes! Please follow me!¡± The little girl in charge of welcoming guests spoke extremely gently as she led Zhou Feng inside..

 Chapter 164 - The Human Emperor’s Cultivation Technique

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At that moment, Zhou Feng actually felt a sense of tranquility.


    His originally restless heart had calmed down quite a bit.


    ¡®There seems to be something wrong around here!¡¯


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows and then saw an incense burner placed under the shade of a tree.


    The passive Appraising Eye was triggered.


    [Heart-Calming Incense Burner: A special top-grade soul artifact that assists in burning the Mind Concentration Incense.]


    ¡®Top-grade soul artifact? This incense burner is a top-grade soul artifact? And it only helps the Mind Concentration Incense burn!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly felt the difference in the world. This Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was way too generous!


    He entered the courtyard and noticed incense burners almost every once in a while.


    From the looks of it, Zhou Feng felt that having a soul artifact was just that.


    Zhou Feng was brought to a small room, where an old man was already waiting for him. ¡°Please take out the Hive Stone and have a look!¡±


    He took out the Hive Stone without hesitation.


    After the appraisal, it was confirmed that this was indeed a Hive Stone.


    ¡°Our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion is willing to purchase this Hive Stone for 150,000 Spirit Stones. What do you think?¡±


    ¡®150,000 Spirit Stones? That much!?¡¯


    It seemed that he had only spent a few hundred Spirit Stones to purchase this Hive Stone!


    How many times had this price increased?


    ¡°I have no objections!¡± Zhou Feng immediately nodded in agreement, but he didn¡¯t lose his composure too much.


    Compared to Spirit Stones, he valued more Purple Mansion cultivation techniques.


    ¡°Right! I wonder if there are any Purple Mansion cultivation techniques for sale here?¡± Zhou Feng directly raised the question in his heart.


    The old man in front of him seemed to be somewhat surprised.


    ¡°Purple Mansion cultivation techniques? Our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion naturally has them¡­


    ¡°But are you sure you want them? Cultivation techniques that involve the Purple Mansion realm are practically the secrets of every clan. Thus, our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion only has ancient cultivation techniques.¡±


    This old man warned Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Ancient times?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned because he was extremely lacking in this aspect of knowledge. He didn¡¯t know what ancient cultivation techniques signified.


    It was as if the old man could see the puzzlement in his heart, so he began to explain with extreme patience.


    The Purple Mansion cultivation techniques were fundamental to each clan.


    This was because the path of cultivation would be established from the point of condensing one¡¯s soul. Once it was established, it would be challenging to change it.


    Thus, it was imperative for ordinary people to choose the cultivation technique of the Purple Mansion realm.


    The various sects and clans would not allow their own Purple Mansion cultivation techniques to be leaked.


    As for vagabond cultivators, they could only set their sights on the ancient cultivation techniques if they wanted to continue improving.


    The ancient cultivation techniques were synonymous with brutality and violence.


    This world was different from most fantasy worlds. It wasn¡¯t just the ancient cultivation techniques that were powerful.


    On the contrary, the more ancient the cultivation technique was, the more flaws it had. Its power was far inferior to the current cultivation techniques.


    Countless generations of ancestors had perfected the current cultivation techniques.


    And with the development of various formations and techniques, the Spiritual Qi of the current era was also becoming more and more abundant.


    The cultivation techniques of the ancient era were already outdated.


    The cultivation techniques of the former Human Emperor might not even be as good as the core cultivation techniques of a large-scale sect.


    This was the progress of the entire cultivation civilization. This kind of progress was paved by countless sages as stepping stones.


    However, it was precisely because of this that Zhou Feng had the opportunity to obtain Purple Mansion cultivation techniques.


    ¡°So it¡¯s like this?¡±


    After understanding all of this, Zhou Feng sank into deep thought.


    ¡°Even if one successfully cultivates the ancient cultivation techniques, it is very likely to cause damage to the body because of their crudeness and many flaws.


    ¡°After all, these cultivation techniques were originally created to fight against the Demon race, so they are all simple and crude.¡±


    The old man was still talking about the shortcomings of the ancient cultivation techniques.


    It seemed like he was trying to persuade Zhou Feng to give up.


    Unexpectedly, he changed the topic in the next second.


    ¡°However, the ancient cultivation techniques are not completely useless.


    ¡°On the contrary, because they originated from the ancient times, the ancestors of the human race did not have so many restrictions. Those cultivation techniques were very ambitious¡­¡±


    The old man began to talk endlessly about the benefits of cultivation techniques from the ancient times.


    He even brought up the legendary Human Emperor.


    Human Emperor! This title was not something that an ordinary person could bear.


    Only the strongest person in the entire human race was qualified to be called a Human Emperor.


    Unfortunately, the title of Human Emperor had not been used by anyone for a long time.


    ¡®The cultivation technique of the Human Emperor?¡¯


    Just this sentence had struck a chord in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    ¡®The Human Emperor¡¯s cultivation technique, huh? I don¡¯t seem to be able to obtain any other cultivation techniques in my current situation!¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to think about it.


    Given his circumstances, if he wanted to obtain the Purple Mansion cultivation techniques, other than this ancient cultivation technique, he didn¡¯t seem to have any other choice.


    That was unless he joined a sect. Still, joining a sect didn¡¯t mean that he would obtain a Purple Mansion cultivation technique.


    This meant that he would have to work for the sect for at least 10 years before having a chance.


    Asking him to work for someone else for more than 10 years? What a joke!


    ¡®I can still earn Spirit Stones! I still have a lot of time anyway!¡¯ Zhou Feng gradually made up his mind.


    He was only 20 years old right now, and he had 20 years more lifespan than an ordinary person due to his passive Longevity.


    He still had a lot of time to waste. Things like Spirit Stones could still be earned.


    It seemed like Zhou Feng had already made up his mind, so the old man said with a smile on his face, ¡°The Human Emperor Scripture only costs 1,000,000 Spirit Stones, and this is only a 50% discount because of the Hive Stone you just sold!¡±


    ¡®1,000,000 Spirit Stones? And a 50% discount!?¡¯


    ¡°After all, this is the cultivation technique of the former Human Emperor. Although the concept is no longer in line with our times, the word ¡®Human Emperor¡¯ has proven its value!¡±


    The old man opened his mouth in advance, silencing Zhou Feng.


    That¡¯s right! The word ¡®Human Emperor¡¯ alone was enough to prove its value.


    ¡°I don¡¯t have enough Spirit Stones now. Do you accept pills?¡±


    ¡°Pills? Of course! After all, pills are rare items. Our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion will evaluate them!¡±


    The old man still had a smile on his face.


    ¡°Cough, cough¡­ I haven¡¯t refined the pills yet. I don¡¯t know what kind of pills are more valuable! I¡¯m talking about Grade-1 pills!¡±


    Zhou Feng coughed lightly and began to ask what was the most valuable among Grade-1 pills.


    ¡°Oh? Your esteemed self is also a Pill Master! If that¡¯s the case, perhaps this price can still be negotiated!¡±


    When the old man heard that Zhou Feng was a Pill Master, his attitude instantly changed.


    The Pill Master profession was indeed the most sought-after. He received preferential treatment here!


    This was something that Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t thought of before..

 Chapter 165 - The Holy Maiden of the Green Lotus Sect

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®He¡¯s only a Class 1 Pill Master! If that¡¯s the case, he can only get a 10% discount!¡¯


    When the old man found out that Zhou Feng was only a Class 1 Pill Master, he did not conceal the disappointment on his face at all.


    It was very obvious that the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion needed high-class Pill Masters the most.


    A Class 1 Pill Master could only refine Grade-1 pills, which were of no use to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    However, considering that Zhou Feng was still very young, the old man still gave him a discount. After all, Zhou Feng seemed to have a lot of potential.


    ¡°The most valuable Grade-1 pill should be the Spirit Accumulation Pill.


    ¡°How about this? Our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion can provide you with the pill formula for free, but the Spirit Accumulation Pill that you refine must be sold to our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.¡±


    Directly giving the pill formula?


    This was something Zhou Feng had never thought of.


    After all, the old man¡¯s requirements were practically without any restrictions. This was simply giving him the pill formula for free.


    As expected of someone who could expand his business to such a large extent and even occupy such a large area in the inner city.


    The people of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion were not bad at all.


    Clearly, this pill formula was an investment for Zhou Feng.


    Furthermore, they didn¡¯t even verify whether he was an actual Pill Master before the investment and directly gave him a pill formula for free.


    Zhou Feng contemplated before summoning the medicinal gourd from his Soul Altar.


    ¡°Good! Take a look at how many Spirit Stones this soul artifact can be used as collateral.¡±


    His plan was to use this medicinal gourd as collateral, along with the Spirit Stones he earned from the Hive Stone, to see if he could exchange them for the Human Emperor Scripture.


    ¡®Oh, right! There are also these things! I guess they are all worth something.¡¯


    Zhou Feng was still worried that it would not be enough, so he took a pile of storage bags out of his storage ring.


    Zhou Feng had accumulated all these things after killing people and plundering their wealth.


    He had only briefly selected the items in the storage bags, but he did not know how much they were worth.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    When the old man saw so many blood-stained storage bags in front of him, his eyes immediately became a little strange.


    However, the most eye-catching thing was that Zhou Feng took out this gourd.


    ¡°Top-grade soul artifact? Unfortunately, it only has auxiliary functions. Its value as collateral is 600,000 Spirit Stones.¡±


    The medicinal gourd, the Spirit Stones he had earned from the Hive Stone, and then there was this pile of junk¡­


    Zhou Feng had finally gathered the Spirit Stones needed to exchange for the Human Emperor Scripture.


    In addition, he also exchanged for many medicinal ingredients to refine the Spirit Accumulation Pill.


    In the end, he even obtained a jade ring, which meant that Zhou Feng had become a distinguished guest of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    He also had the qualifications to participate in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion¡¯s auction.


    Not long after, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion¡¯s people sent over the Human Emperor Scripture.


    He had obtained the Human Emperor Scripture!


    ¡®I didn¡¯t expect it to be so smooth! Although it¡¯s a cultivation technique from the ancient times, I finally have a reference!¡¯


    Zhou Feng placed the Human Emperor Scripture into his storage ring, feeling slightly excited.


    Originally, he thought that it would be challenging to obtain a cultivation technique related to the Purple Mansion realm.


    He was even prepared to remain in the Soul Altar realm for some period. But he didn¡¯t expect to obtain a Purple Mansion cultivation technique so smoothly in the end.


    This Human Emperor Scripture should be much stronger than the Sun-Moon Concentration Technique!


    The Sun-Moon Concentration Technique that he had obtained from the Tri-Gu Sect was too taxing on his soul power. Even Zhou Feng, who had cultivated for a period of time, was unable to endure that terrifying consumption.


    Even though he had the passive Soul Harvesting, he was unable to endure that kind of consumption.


    It was precisely because of this that he was in search of other Purple Mansion cultivation techniques.


    Since Zhou Feng had obtained the Human Emperor Scripture, he did not plan to linger around.


    After returning to his residence, he would first study the Human Emperor Scripture before refining pills.


    Zhou Feng still liked to arrange his schedule to the fullest.


    ¡®That¡¯s right! There seems to be a large river outside Heavenly Star City. When I am bored, I can go fishing.¡¯


    He did not forget that he still had the passive Fisherman.


    Just as Zhou Feng walked to the courtyard outside Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, he suddenly noticed that a large group of people had gathered together.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on?¡¯ Zhou Feng¡¯s face was filled with puzzlement.


    Suddenly, a cloud of mist slowly rose in the surroundings, accompanied by the sound of an ancient zither that sounded like the music of nature.


    ¡°She¡¯s here! She¡¯s here! The Holy Maiden of the Green Lotus Sect!¡±


    ¡°I can finally see the face of the fairy! Looks like my luck today is pretty good!¡±


    ¡°Holy Maiden Green Lotus came to Heavenly Star City for the sake of the Southern Sea Dragons!¡±


    ¡°I think so! In any case, the Green Lotus Sect and the Dragon Clan are sworn enemies!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng, who was standing at the side, received a lot of information.


    The Green Lotus Sect? Holy Maiden? Sworn enemy of the Dragon Clan?


    What kind of Holy Maiden had such a grand presence?


    Along with the misty clouds, a fairy came riding on the wind. Her body was wrapped in clouds, and her face could not be seen clearly at all.


    However, everyone could vaguely see a peerlessly beautiful figure untainted by the mortal world.


    Although they couldn¡¯t see her appearance, the image of a flawless fairy appeared in the minds of countless people.


    ¡®So powerful!¡¯


    Compared to everyone who was immersed in that otherworldly aura, Zhou Feng could sense the absolute power of this Holy Maiden.


    She was definitely not just at the Purple Mansion realm!


    This Holy Maiden Green Lotus was like a real fairy. Just a trace of her aura was enough to suppress him and make him unable to breathe.


    ¡®It¡¯s better to escape quickly!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that something wasn¡¯t quite right. In the vicinity of such a Holy Maiden, nothing good was going to happen.


    Zhou Feng had experienced the words ¡®damnable beauty¡¯ before. He did not want to be implicated. It was better for him to escape quickly.


    Increasing his strength was the most important thing.


    He restrained his aura and carefully walked behind everyone toward the door with this thought in mind.


    Because almost everyone¡¯s attention was on this Holy Maiden, no one noticed Zhou Feng.


    Under normal circumstances, there should not be any accidents.


    However, in the next second, Zhou Feng was in a bad mood.


    Holy Maiden Green Lotus, who was in the clouds, suddenly looked at him.


    Maybe it was because Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was different from the others, or maybe it was because of other reasons, which caused the Holy Maiden to look at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Who is this person?¡±


    ¡°What is this person doing? Is he trying to attract the Holy Maiden¡¯s attention?¡±


    ¡°He actually used such a trick!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Everyone paying attention to the Holy Maiden¡¯s every move naturally followed her gaze and looked at Zhou Feng.


    Sensing that more and more gazes were on him, Zhou Feng frowned.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what to say in his heart, but he didn¡¯t stop walking either.


    Instead, his movements became more unrestrained as he left the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion in large strides.


    But even so, there were still a few people who had their eyes on him.


    This was simply an undeserved disaster! He had been targeted for no reason at all.


    And the reason for their eyes on him was only because of Zhou Feng¡¯s large strides out of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    Or rather, Zhou Feng¡¯s actions had attracted Holy Maiden Green Lotus¡¯ attention of, which immediately caused some people to burn with jealousy..

 Chapter 166 - An Unexpected Coincidence

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What an unexpected disaster!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt a few more people following behind him, and his frown deepened.


    He had only entered Heavenly Star City for a short while, so why did it seem like he had offended many people?


    According to his original plan, Zhou Feng wanted to keep a low profile and slowly accumulate strength.


    As long as he had enough time, he would be able to obtain enough passive skills.


    The current situation seemed to be a little off again.


    Thinking of this, he hurriedly quickened his pace, turning left and right to escape from the people who were chasing him.


    After circling around for a long time, he finally returned to his residence.


    It was a very important thing to have a property of his own in Heavenly Star City.


    If someone tried to break into the residence, it would be a big crime in Heavenly Star City. The city guards would definitely hunt them down.


    Therefore, it was safe to return to the house.


    However, Zhou Feng followed the principle of caution and set up a few warning formations around the residence.


    In any case, these formation flags could be used repeatedly. At most, they would consume a few Spirit Stones.


    ¡®Let¡¯s take a look at the Human Emperor Scripture first!¡¯


    After setting up the warning formations, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t wait to check out the Human Emperor Scripture.


    He didn¡¯t know how the ancient Human Emperor had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    This Human Emperor was once the most powerful expert of the human race. Even if they were so far apart, they should still have some reference value!


    Fortunately, the Human Emperor Scripture was a translated version.


    If it was the original version, Zhou Feng might not even be able to understand it.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    As Zhou Feng read on, his originally relaxed brows began to furrow again.


    He seemed to have been tricked!


    The cultivation technique recorded in the Human Emperor Scripture could not be cultivated at all.


    In the ancient era, the Human Emperor had not needed to condense a nascent soul at all. He had been born with a nascent soul!


    This so-called Purple Mansion cultivation technique was actually a body-refining method?


    The rubbings in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands were part of this body-refining method.


    Legend had it that in ancient times, due to the environment, the Spiritual Qi at that time had been far less gentle than it was now.


    At that time, not only had the Spiritual Qi been extremely abundant, but it was also extremely violent. Ordinary people hadn¡¯t had the chance to cultivate at all.


    Only those with extraordinary talent could absorb the violent Spiritual Qi into their bodies, thus opening the path of cultivation.


    And the legendary Human Emperor was naturally a dragon among men. Not only had he been born with a nascent soul, but his physical body had also been terrifying. From the moment he was born, he could absorb the violent Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi between on his own.


    He had also created the most powerful cultivation technique at that time, the Human Emperor Scripture.


    The original intention of this Human Emperor Scripture had been for everyone to cultivate a physique like his.


    Unfortunately, not many people had been able to cultivate.


    Even if some people with extraordinary talent started cultivating, they would give up because they couldn¡¯t keep up with the resources in the later stages.


    After all, not everyone was a Human Emperor. There was a human race behind them as a support.


    After that, the human race flourished, and Sages continued to descend into the world. The environment changed greatly, and all kinds of cultivation techniques emerged one after another.


    The Human Emperor Scripture, which was originally a treasure of the human race, also drifted to various places and finally fell into the hands of Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Because time has changed, the environment no longer supports the cultivation of the Human Emperor Scripture¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was prepared to curse when he saw this, but there was still a paragraph at the back.


    ¡®But it¡¯s not that there¡¯s no alternative¡­¡¯


    It turned out that besides the original content of the Human Emperor Scripture, there were a few notes at the back.


    These rubbings were from a wise man who had wanted to recreate the elegance of the Human Emperor Scripture after seeing it. He had made some improvements based on the current environment.


    Simply put, this was a bigshot¡¯s reinterpretation of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    ¡°Malevolent Earth Qi?¡±


    If one wanted to master the Human Emperor Scripture, they had to borrow the Malevolent Earth Qi because the current era¡¯s Spiritual Qi was not violent enough.


    He had to use the ferocity of the Malevolent Earth Qi to temper his body as much as possible and stimulate the lowest level of the Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline.


    Logically speaking, everyone now had a trace of the Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline.


    Then, one had to use that trace of stimulated Human Emperor bloodline to cultivate the Human Emperor Physique. In the end, they would be able to break through all kinds of attacks and resist soul artifacts with their bodies.


    ¡®Extremely dangerous?¡¯


    He saw a series of warnings at the end.


    The Malevolent Earth Qi was too fierce, and once it entered the body, the damage would be immeasurable.


    Unless an ordinary person had a special constitution or had the support of an ancient sect, whoever cultivated this Human Emperor Scripture would lose their life.


    ¡®Injured? I¡¯m not afraid of that!¡¯


    If it was only being afraid of getting injured, Zhou Feng was not afraid at all. On the contrary, the Human Emperor Scripture unexpectedly suited him?


    One had to know that he had passive skills such as Tenacious Heart. After being injured, he only needed to wait for a period of time before he could be revived with full health.


    Other people who cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture needed to be careful at all times, afraid that the murderous aura would enter too deep into their bodies.


    But Zhou Feng was not afraid!


    If his body was injured, he could stop and rest for a while and then continue to cultivate!


    And most importantly, there were almost no restrictions on this Human Emperor Scripture.


    Most cultivation techniques in this world had extremely deep insights, and cultivation required all sorts of prerequisites.


    But the Human Emperor Scripture didn¡¯t have these. As long as one was a human, they could cultivate it. Of course, whether one would die or not after cultivating it wasn¡¯t something the Human Emperor would consider.


    ¡®This Human Emperor Scripture can actually be cultivated directly from the Purple Mansion realm! Or rather, the Human Emperor was born at the Purple Mansion realm!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivation was precisely the starting point for cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.


    As long as he stimulated the Human Emperor bloodline and condensed the Human Emperor¡¯s blood, he would be equivalent to a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    The moment the Human Emperor¡¯s blood appeared, it would be able to assist one¡¯s scattered soul power in condensing their nascent soul.


    Compared to the common cultivation techniques in the world, it was clear that the Human Emperor Scripture was somewhat different.


    However, there was one thing that needed to be noted. This scroll only had the cultivation technique of the Purple Mansion realm.


    If Zhou Feng wanted to break through to the Divine Ability realm, he would have to look for the later part of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    The later parts of the Human Emperor Scripture were like looking for a needle in a haystack!


    This was a point that had to be considered.


    ¡°However, there is a benefit to this Human Emperor Scripture.¡±


    The various shortcomings of this Human Emperor Scripture were mentioned earlier, but there was a benefit if one cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture.


    That was¡­ it could resolve Zhou Feng¡¯s current physical condition.


    Previously, because he cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, he had relied on the Demon-Devouring Gu to raise his cultivation forcefully.


    He had messed up his body, and even his Soul Altar had been contaminated. Now, he had to rely on the Ice Heart Gu in his body to suppress the backlash.


    His Blood Qi was also chaotic, not pure at all, while the Demonic Qi had contaminated his Spiritual Qi.


    Zhou Feng gradually realized that this Demonic Qi would continuously corrode his mind.


    Thus, this Demon-Devouring Technique was too evil.


    It was almost impossible for Zhou Feng to turn the situation around. He could only suppress these drawbacks by constantly breaking through realms.


    However, the Human Emperor Scripture could solve all these problems..

 Chapter 167 - Turning into a Handsome Young Man

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The process of cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture could forcefully change a person¡¯s physique.


    As long as one could endure the pain and condense the Human Emperor Blood, their physical condition could change in one fell swoop.


    Moreover, the Human Emperor Scripture was extremely overbearing. Once one cultivated it, it was almost impossible to cultivate other cultivation techniques.


    The Human Emperor Blood would forcefully kill even the Demon-Devouring Gu that resided in his body.


    Any cultivation technique that he cultivated before, all traces would disappear into nothingness. This was the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s overbearing nature.


    Once he set foot on it, there was no turning back.


    Zhou Feng could not help but ask himself in his heart, ¡®Should I try to find a better cultivation technique than this Human Emperor Scripture?¡¯


    The Human Emperor Scripture was undoubtedly the best choice if he did not want to sell his freedom and be restricted by so many rules and regulations. It could even eliminate all the shortcomings of his body in one go.


    ¡°I don¡¯t think I need to consider further!¡±


    After pondering for a while, Zhou Feng decided to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture.


    First of all, his battle system was compatible with the Human Emperor Scripture, his passive skills could heal the injuries caused by the cultivation technique, and it could solve the problem riddling Zhou Feng¡¯s mind. If he didn¡¯t cultivate it, he would be a fool.


    As for the follow-up cultivation technique, he would deal with it when the time came!


    Perhaps, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion would have news about the follow-up cultivation technique of the Human Emperor Scripture. As long as he paid a sufficient price, there should be news about it.


    Since Zhou Feng actually decided to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture, he planned to give it a try.


    Although cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture without Malevolent Earth Qi wouldn¡¯t have a good effect, he could familiarize himself with it first.


    Zhou Feng first gathered his soul power as it was recorded in the scroll. Then, he continuously used the condensed soul power to stimulate the Blood Qi in his body while devouring the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    That special operation method seemed to have awakened the emperor of ancient times. Zhou Feng suddenly felt that he was enshrouded in a fog.


    Then, the meridians and mysteries of his body were revealed to him one by one.


    This feeling was as if his body had been dissected and then displayed in full detail in front of him.


    This feeling was really wonderful.


    The large amount of Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi that Zhou Feng had accumulated in his body had all been excavated at this moment.


    Because of various reasons, the Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi had accumulated in the depths of his body.


    Normally, they were a burden to Zhou Feng, as he could not circulate them freely, even preventing him from improving.


    But now, they were all circulated and started to burn.


    The degree of craziness of this burning sensation was even greater than the Blood-Burning Technique and the Spiritual Attachment Art.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Demon-Devouring Gu could not stand it and drilled out of his flesh, leaving his body.


    The Ice Heart Gu in his body also drilled out.


    If it stayed in Zhou Feng¡¯s body, it would die.


    When in a life and death crisis, even Gus with lower intelligence would make a choice.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart lost blood at an alarming rate, while his vitality started to drop rapidly.


    The scariest thing was that Zhou Feng did not react at all. He looked like an old monk in meditation!


    The chaotic Blood Qi and heterogenous Spiritual Qi were being forcibly compressed.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s body, which he thought was strong, could not withstand this kind of pressure at all, and it began to show signs of crumbling inch by inch.


    This was still the body that had been passively and repeatedly tempered by Old Skin.


    If not for Old Skin¡¯s passive effect, Zhou Feng would have died suddenly from that action just now.


    This Human Emperor Scripture was too overbearing!


    No wonder no one was willing to cultivate it. This was the result of not using Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate.


    In addition, Zhou Feng still had all sorts of recovery-type passive skills. His Self-Healing Constitution and the other passive skills were triggered when his body collapsed.


    The collapsed body continued to recover with great difficulty.


    But even so, Zhou Feng would die an unnatural death if this situation did not stop.


    ¡®This can¡¯t go on!¡¯


    At that critical moment, Zhou Feng suddenly woke up.


    Originally, his blood was about to condense into a golden thread, but it dissipated because of his sudden awakening.


    ¡®I am¡­¡¯


    The awakened Zhou Feng felt exhausted.


    His Blood Qi was almost dried up, and his Spiritual Qi had been exhausted. There was not even much soul power left.


    His Blood Qi, Spiritual Qi, and soul power had been completely consumed!


    What was that state just now?


    Zhou Feng seemed to have been able to see through the secrets of his physical body earlier, and a ball of fire had condensed in his chest.


    ¡®Is it because of the Human Emperor Scripture?¡¯


    Zhou Feng casually found some useless medicinal herbs in his storage ring and then digested them with his Level-2 Gluttony.


    After digesting them, the produced Blood Qi continuously replenished his already dried-up physical body.


    After that, the passive Tenacious Heart was also triggered with a large amount of Blood Qi as support.


    Zhou Feng, who was already on his last breath, returned to top condition at the speed of the naked eye.


    At the same time that his injuries recovered, Zhou Feng felt that his body seemed to be different.


    This was a smooth feeling, like a person whose nose had been stuffed for more than ten years suddenly had a clear nose!


    A large amount of Blood Qi was boiling in his body, and his vitality was recovering rapidly.


    A stream of light flashed in his eyes.


    ¡®Is this the power of the Human Emperor Scripture?¡¯


    Other than the chaotic Blood Qi being smoothed out, his originally contaminated soul power had also become pure.


    Zhou Feng felt as if he had undergone a complete transformation.


    The various disadvantages caused by cultivating and using the Demon-Devouring Technique had already been eliminated by more than half!


    Zhou Feng stretched out his palm. His body was sparkling and flawless¡ªhis yellowish skin had turned into white jade.


    ¡®This is¡­ me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng took out a mirror and looked at his current appearance.


    To be honest, he was shocked.


    In the mirror was a handsome young man. There was a hint of heroic spirit between his brows.


    His flesh and blood were shining with a crystal-like light. From time to time, some kind of divine light flashed as well.


    When did he become so handsome?


    Although his appearance was not much different from before, he looked like an incomparably handsome youth at this moment.


    This was a level that would cause countless young women and girls to blush.


    ¡®The Human Emperor Scripture also has a beauty function? And if I remember correctly, I have a passive that adds charm!¡¯


    Although becoming handsome was a reason to celebrate, Zhou Feng felt that this did not seem to be a good thing for him.


    It would be easy to attract attention wherever he went with such a face and the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart.


    Zhou Feng wanted the most to keep a low profile and lie low. He didn¡¯t want so many people to pay attention to him.


    He had already learned his lesson through the Holy Maiden Green Lotus incident.


    ¡®Should I be wearing a mask from now on? This will attract more attention!¡¯


    Zhou Feng contemplated for some time and decided to push it to the back of his mind.


    After the experiment just now, the Human Emperor Scripture was indeed very suitable for him. Or it could be said that it was tailor-made for him. If an ordinary person cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, they might still be paralyzed.


    However, Zhou Feng was now completely fine and could even continue to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture.


    This proved that cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture was the right choice.


    Next, Zhou Feng could inquire about the Malevolent Earth Qi, but before that, he still needed to refine pills to accumulate resources.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery this time required a large amount of Blood Qi. His storage ring, which had originally been filled to the brim, was now almost completely empty..

 Chapter 168 - I’m Definitely Going to Be the Son-In-Law!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation of the Human Emperor Scripture had become much easier due to his Tenacious Heart and his Self-Healing Constitution.


    On the other hand, recovering from his injuries required a large amount of Blood Qi.


    His Level-2 Gluttony could replenish his Blood Qi by constantly devouring various medicinal herbs and the like.


    If there were pills, it would naturally be the best. In any case, Zhou Feng could convert anything into Blood Qi with his Level-2 Gluttony.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng needed many resources to support his cultivation of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    And what could he exchange for these cultivation resources? Currently, the best way for Zhou Feng to earn resources was to refine pills.


    For him, refining pills could be said to be everything. He had pill-refining techniques, pill recipes, and even raw materials.


    These things were all inherited from Pill Master Yuan.


    ¡®But my pill refinement level doesn¡¯t seem to be that good¡­¡¯


    Since the pill refinement plan to earn resources was complete, then all that remained was Zhou Feng¡¯s pill refinement skill.


    Zhou Feng had never refined the Spirit Accumulation Pill before.


    ¡®Oh right! Let¡¯s see whether I can draw out a new passive skill!¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought of the skill panel.


    He cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture and was almost reborn, with most of his shortcomings almost being eliminated.


    In this case, there should be some changes in the skill panel!


    He opened the skill panel and took a look at the progress bar.


    ¡®The progress bar is full?¡¯


    To his surprise, the progress bar was full. This meant that he could draw a new passive skill.


    ¡®I hope it¡¯s a passive skill that can help with pill refinement!¡¯ Zhou Feng prayed in his heart before drawing the passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    Skill Proficiency: Your subclass skill success rate increases by 15%, but this passive skill can not be used beyond your level.


    Subclasses include: Pill Master, Formation Master, Beast Tamer, and so on.


    Zhou Feng had been wishing that this new passive skill was related to pill refinement.


    ¡®No way! My wish came true? Am I seeing things right!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was dumbstruck upon seeing this new passive skill. This was so good that Zhou Feng even suspected that he was seeing things.


    ¡®Proficiency! A direct increase of 15% success rate?¡¯


    This meant that no matter how Zhou Feng refined a pill, he had at least a 15% success rate.


    Wasn¡¯t this invincible?


    However, the description at the end still showed that this passive skill had some limitations. This passive skill wasn¡¯t effective when he was refining pills of a higher grade.


    For example, Zhou Feng was a Class 1 Pill Master. If he wanted to refine a Grade-2 pill, this passive skill wouldn¡¯t be effective.


    But even so, this passive skill was invincible. After all, the pill success rate of an ordinary Pill Master was very low. It was basically less than 50%.


    Failure was a very normal thing for a Pill Master.


    Moreover, this passive skill was not only suitable for refining pills. It could also help him set up formations or tame spirit beasts easier.


    ¡°Invincible! Invincible! Invincible!¡±


    Zhou Feng shouted ¡°Invincible!¡± three times. He did not expect the passive skill to be so powerful this time.


    Refining the Spirit Accumulation Pill to earn resources was close at hand with this passive skill.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Just when he was in a state of excitement, Big Yellow came out from nowhere and barked.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Hungry? Eat these things first. I¡¯ll refine pills for you later.¡±


    Seeing Big Yellow wagging its tail at him, Zhou Feng instantly understood what Big Yellow wanted.


    It was hungry and wanted to eat something.


    It was impossible to feed Spirit Stones like before, so Zhou Feng took a few strips of jerky out of his storage ring and threw them to Big Yellow.


    Now that his finances were tight, he could only feed it a little less.


    When Zhou Feng¡¯s Spirit Stone reserves increased again, he would refine some pills that were specially fed to spirit beasts.


    If Big Yellow could grow quickly, it would be a help to him.


    ¡°Woof woof!¡±


    Although Big Yellow was used to eating Spirit Stones, it still maintained a smile on its face after receiving the strips of jerky, not disliking them at all.


    It swallowed the strips of jerky in big mouthfuls.


    Zhou Feng also took out a cauldron he had purchased earlier and all kinds of medicinal ingredients.


    He would refine pills on the spot!


    ¡­


    ¡°How is it?¡±


    ¡°Young Master! The investigation is almost done. This Zhou Feng is a mere vagabond cultivator.


    ¡°However, a servant discovered that the Li Clan seems to be secretly investigating this Zhou Feng as well.¡±


    ¡°What? The Li Clan is also investigating?¡±


    When Wang Shu heard that the Li Clan was also investigating Zhou Feng, he instantly felt that something was wrong.


    ¡°Could it be that the Li Clan is interested in that kid?¡±


    At that moment, Wang Shu didn¡¯t look like a good-for-nothing at all. On the contrary, he appeared very calm and collected.


    He seemed to be deliberately acting like a silkpants.


    Indeed! Wang Shu was pretending to be a good-for-nothing young master.


    All of this was to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    Compared to the Li Clan, Wang Shu¡¯s clan had long declined.


    The Li Clan was even able to open a business like a gambling den in Heavenly Star City. From this, one could see the Li Clan¡¯s power.


    And apart from their established name, the Wang Clan was even inferior to some second-rate clans.


    Therefore, forming a marriage alliance with the Li Clan was the most important thing for the Wang Clan.


    Wang Shu pretended to be a good-for-nothing so that the Li Clan would lower their guard.


    The Li Clan had already made it clear that they only wanted to do business peacefully and did not want to join in the various disputes in Heavenly Star City.


    This meant that the Li Clan would not casually form a marriage alliance with those big clans.


    On the contrary, finding a ne¡¯er-do-well son-in-law seemed to be a better choice.


    Moreover, this son-in-law had better be well-behaved and not so ambitious.


    It was also because of all these reasons that Wang Shu pretended to be a good-for-nothing and did not seem to have any ambitions.


    Although Li Rong hated him, marriage was never something that Li Rong could decide.


    Originally, everything was going according to Wang Shu¡¯s plan.


    The Wang Clan had already declined, and Wang Shu was a silkpants. Such a person seemed to be very suitable to become a son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    The Wang Clan may have declined, but their reputation was still there, so it was not considered shameful.


    The Wang Clan had already discussed with the Li Elders not long ago. The matter of becoming a son-in-law of the Li Clan was almost a done deal.


    Wang Shu was originally very pleased with himself. Li Rong disliked him, yet she would still marry him in the end.


    Every time Wang Shu thought of Li Rong¡¯s unwilling look, he felt a wave of comfort in his heart.


    But just when everything had been going smoothly, Zhou Feng, this imbecile, suddenly appeared.


    Although the matter of the Wang and Li Clan becoming in-laws would basically not be shaken, Wang Shu was still a little worried.


    He was afraid that if he were too pleased with himself, something would happen in the end.


    At that moment, he had to eliminate all accidents.


    Thus, a thought arose in Wang Shu¡¯s mind¡ªthat was to get rid of Zhou Feng!

 Chapter 169 - Guaranteed Pill Refinement Success Rate

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    As long as Zhou Feng disappeared from this world, then all questions regarding him would disappear.


    This was Wang Shu¡¯s idea, and it was also the idea of most people in this world.


    ¡®However, how to perfectly deal with this person needs to be carefully considered¡­¡¯


    Wang Shu wasn¡¯t a profligate son. He knew that if he wanted to deal with Zhou Feng, he had to do it cleanly.


    There could not be any mistakes. If there were any mistakes, the consequences would be very serious.


    If the Li Clan got wind of this matter, it would be a serious blow to his plan.


    Don¡¯t look at how Wang Shu acted in front of Li Rong. He was completely different when he faced the Li Elders.


    It could be said that Wang Shu had accurately grasped the key to the marriage alliance with the Li Clan.


    The ones who could truly decide on the marriage alliance with the Li Clan were the Li Elders. As for Li Rong¡¯s opinion, it might be of some help but not important.


    Even Li Manya¡¯s opinions were not very important. After all, she had once been in a similar situation with Li Rong.


    It was just that Li Manya was talented enough to break through to the Divine Ability realm. She had the power to control her own life, so she did not have to go through marriage alliance discussions with other clans.


    The ones who had the right to speak were the Elders and the Clan Leaders.


    ¡®Borrow someone else¡¯s knife to kill? No way!¡¯


    Wang Shu originally wanted to use the method of borrowing someone else¡¯s knife to kill, but this method was too risky.


    There was the danger of exposing himself.


    At present, the situation was great for Wang Shu, and he didn¡¯t need to use this kind of trick at all.


    ¡®I should take revenge directly! Only then will I be good-for-nothing! And this time, I can borrow the Li Clan¡¯s resources!¡¯


    Wang Shu thought for a moment and felt that it was best to take revenge directly.


    In fact, it would be even better if he could borrow the Li Clan¡¯s power. This would be more in line with his status as a good-for-nothing.


    In addition, as a vagabond cultivator, Zhou Feng certainly didn¡¯t meet the requirements for the Li Clan to choose a son-in-law.


    Generally speaking, the more ancient the clan, the more important it was to be born and have blood ties.


    This was because the higher the cultivation level of a cultivator, the higher the aptitude of their descendants.


    Although the Wang Clan had declined, at least their ancestors had been rich.


    Zhou Feng, who had appeared out of nowhere, would not be accepted by those stubborn old fogies of the Li Clan.


    Unless Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude was extraordinary, and he could break through to the Divine Ability realm in the future.


    Just as Wang Shu was racking his brain to scheme against Zhou Feng, trying to eliminate this threat¡­


    Zhou Feng did not feel anything at all. He was completely immersed in refining pills.


    He did not even know that a person was already racking his brain to scheme against him in order to become a son-in-law.


    If Zhou Feng found out about this¡­


    He would think that this person was sick.


    Marrying into the Li Clan? He would not do that.


    What cultivation clan? What resources? He had no interest in that. A free and unfettered life was Zhou Feng¡¯s wish.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any earth-shattering wish like becoming the master of the world. He just wanted to live forever. As for other fights, he wasn¡¯t interested at all.


    According to the information that Zhou Feng had gathered, as long as he broke through to the Divine Ability realm, he would have a guaranteed lifespan of 500 years.


    He could use all kinds of methods to extend his lifespan.


    His primary goal now was to live for 500 years.


    How many passive skills would he acquire in 500 years?


    Zhou Feng felt that even if his aptitude was lackluster, he could still become one of the top cultivators by relying on thousands of passive skills.


    ¡®I¡¯m finally done!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the medicinal herbs¡¯ dross in front of him and let out a long sigh.


    He had finally refined all the medicinal herbs!


    The success rate of refining the Spirit Accumulation Pill was really too low, only 15%!


    In other words, other than relying on his passive Skill Proficiency, he had never relied on his own strength to successfully refine the Spirit Accumulation Pill.


    Although he was a little unable to accept this, he still expressed his understanding. After all, he had never systematically learned the art of pill refinement before.


    Also, in order to make the passive skill recognize him as a Class 1 Pill Master, Zhou Feng specially refined the simplest Grade-1 pill.


    Normally, being able to refine a Grade-1 pill signified that one was a Class 1 Pill Master.


    After that, he would be able to perfectly trigger the passive Skill Proficiency. Zhou Feng felt that he was still very meticulous.


    ¡®The quality doesn¡¯t seem to be that good¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng took a look at the pill formation and realized that the quality was passable.


    However, it didn¡¯t matter. In any case, being able to refine this Spirit Accumulation Pill was already a huge profit.


    If he didn¡¯t have the passive Skill Proficiency, he felt that he would have wasted all the medicinal ingredients and wouldn¡¯t have been able to successfully refine it.


    The Pill Master profession was a high-risk one. Once the refinement failed, it would be like losing everything.


    However, if the success rate of the pill was guaranteed, then the Pill Master would also earn a lot.


    For example, the hundreds of Spirit Accumulation Pills in front of Zhou Feng only took less than one night.


    The raw materials were probably worth 10,000 Spirit Stones?


    The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion¡¯s medicinal ingredients seemed to be relatively cheap.


    And the lowest price for a Spirit Accumulation Pill seemed to be 2,000 to 3,000 Spirit Stones?


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know the exact price, but he conservatively estimated that under the 15% success rate of the pill, the profit would definitely be more than ten times.


    According to this calculation, Zhou Feng would probably only need a few days to redeem the medicine gourd.


    He cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, so this medicine gourd was now relatively important to him.


    The medicinal gourd was a top-grade soul artifact, so it didn¡¯t have much use to Zhou Feng in the past.


    But now, it was different. The Human Emperor Scripture consumed too much Blood Qi, and the medicinal liquid in the medicinal gourd could provide a large amount of Blood Qi.


    The price was only some medicinal ingredients. He only needed to keep putting medicinal ingredients to obtain plenty of medicinal liquid that replenished Blood Qi. This was practically a divine artifact that could assist in cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.


    ¡®Oh right! Perhaps I can get Qian Shang to come over and open a shop that specializes in selling pills!¡¯


    Now that Zhou Feng had the passive Skill Proficiency in his arsenal, he could refine and sell his pills.


    He could also buy medicinal herbs on his own. He would be able to control the channels of buying and selling his medicinal herbs, earning more in the process.


    He even felt that he could specialize in some low-grade healing pills. Not only was the market large enough, but the refining speed was also fast enough.


    In any case, the pill success rate was guaranteed. He felt that they would be even more profitable than the Spirit Accumulation Pill if there were enough of them.


    After all, if it was a healing pill like the Rejuvenation Pill, Zhou Feng would make dozens of them in one batch.


    Compared to the Spirit Accumulation Pill, which was challenging to refine, the speed was many times faster.


    ¡®I will take time to refine pills and convert them into cultivation resources daily. Then, I¡¯ll slowly cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture. When my body gets used to it, I¡¯ll search for information about the Earth Malevolent Qi and start condensing the Human Emperor Blood.¡¯


    Zhou Feng had already planned his future cultivation regime.


    No pressure! No enemies! This kind of cultivation life was suitable for him.


    He could even fish when he was bored. It was simply the carefree life that he had been longing for..

 Chapter 170 - The Benefits of Charm

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to look for Qian Shang and his daughter, they had already arrived in front of his residence.


    Qian Shang and his daughter did not seem to have suffered many difficulties in the past.


    However, they seemed to have suffered a huge blow at this moment, and there was no confidence on their faces at all.


    Obviously, Qian Shang and his daughter had suffered a huge blow in Heavenly Star City.


    Actually, this was very normal. If one did not have a unique way to earn income or did not have enough strength, it would be difficult to survive in Heavenly Star City.


    Qian Shang had relied on his business model bak in the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s marketplace to survive, but he could no longer do so in Heavenly Star City. The other stores and their goods were very competitive.


    In addition, he did not have enough connections, capital, or time.


    Qian Shang¡¯s capital was almost depleted.


    Originally, Qian Shang wanted to hold on for a while. After all, he had promised to help Zhou Feng earn money, but he had yet to earn anything. Instead, he needed Zhou Feng¡¯s help.


    A businessman like Qian Shang was well aware that it would be normal for a cultivator to give up on him if he did not show enough value. No one would like to have a good-for-nothing under their command.


    Qian Shang, who originally wanted to hold on, was persuaded by Qian Qianqian in the end.


    The current predicament was obvious. It would be impossible to rely on themselves if they wanted to live in Heavenly Star City.


    So now, they had to grab hold of Zhou Feng¡¯s leg.


    ¡°Come in!¡±


    Zhou Feng sensed Qian Shang and his daughter at the door and let them in.


    Qian Shang coughed a few times before rubbing his hands.


    ¡°I¡¯m going to open a shop that sells pills. Help me find a small shop first. It¡¯s best if it¡¯s a shop that sells pills at the front and back!¡±


    Before Qian Shang and his daughter could speak, Zhou Feng spoke first.


    Qian Shang was astonished.


    ¡°No¡­ No problem! Selling pills¡­¡±


    ¡®Wait! This smell is the fragrance of pills!


    This¡­ Young Master couldn¡¯t be a Pill Master, right!?¡¯


    Qian Shang swallowed his saliva as a terrifying guess appeared in his mind.


    Even the way he addressed Zhou Feng had changed. He automatically assumed the identity of a servant.


    Qian Shang was very clear about the value of a Pill Master. If Zhou Feng was a Pill Master, then he was really lucky.


    He could definitely live comfortably in Heavenly Star City with such a backer.


    ¡°You should have the experience of purchasing medicinal herbs, right?¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡±


    Qian Shang was even more excited upon hearing that question because this had already confirmed his guess.


    Regarding the shop¡¯s opening, Zhou Feng only gave a few instructions and didn¡¯t pay too much attention to it.


    Now, he planned to make another trip to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion and exchange all the newly refined Spirit Accumulation Pills for Spirit Stones.


    Compared to the calm Zhou Feng, Qian Shang himself was exhilarated.


    A noble! This time, he was in the presence of a noble!


    Qian Shang felt he was the luckiest man alive, having met Zhou Feng and investing in him when he was still insignificant.


    Who would have thought that Zhou Feng had still been an inconspicuous inner disciple back in the Tri-Gu Sect?


    In the blink of an eye, not only had his cultivation reached the Soul Altar realm, but he was also a Pill Master.


    Qian Shang had actually been able to catch this big fish, Zhou Feng, directly. If it was not luck, what was it!?


    ¡­


    After giving some instructions to Qian Shang and his daughter, Zhou Feng walked in the direction of the inner city with ease.


    ¡®I wonder how much I can earn with these Spirit Accumulation Pills,¡¯ he thought as he walked toward the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t notice that more and more people were looking at him.


    ¡°Who is this person? Is he the successor of a mighty clan?¡±


    ¡°Is Heavenly Star City so lively recently?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! But with such a temperament and appearance, he must be the successor of a mighty clan!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    By the time Zhou Feng realized what was going on, he found that there was a circle of people around him.


    ¡®?¡¯


    A question mark represented Zhou Feng¡¯s current thoughts. What was going on?


    ¡®Oh right! My appearance¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly reacted. His appearance and temperament had undergone a huge change because he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture.


    At that time, he had suspected that the Human Emperor Scripture had the effect of increasing his charm.


    Thinking about how the Human Emperor had become the Human Emperor, his personality and charm should definitely be off the charts.


    After all, to suppress everyone in ancient times, besides strength, charisma was also very important.


    Hence, Zhou Feng suspected that the Human Emperor Scripture had the effect of increasing charisma.


    In addition to the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart, it directly added a bit of charisma.


    With this addition, the current situation was created.


    The moment Zhou Feng went out, it was as if he had become 10,000 people¡¯s idol. He would receive the gazes of others wherever he went.


    This kind of treatment made him extremely uncomfortable.


    He had long been used to keeping a low profile from his days in the Tri-Gu Sect. He was used to no one noticing his feelings.


    Now that he had suddenly become like this, he found it difficult to come to terms with it.


    Moreover, such a high profile also meant that the probability of encountering trouble increased.


    ¡°Are you sure that this person is the toad who covets my little sister?¡±


    ¡°Uh, this lowly person definitely didn¡¯t recognize the wrong person! I just don¡¯t know¡­¡±


    Li Xin¡¯s eyes were slightly suspicious.


    The person in front of him seemed to be somewhat different from what Wang Shu had described.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t seem like a vagabond cultivator, given his temperament and appearance. Instead, it was as if he was the disciple of a reclusive sect.


    Could there be some mistake in this!?


    Li Xin had originally heard that a vagabond cultivator had dared to covet his little sister, so he excitedly came to teach this toad a lesson.


    But after seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance, Li Xin hesitated.


    This was the advantage of having a high charisma.


    Although having high charisma was troublesome, it also had a lot of relative advantages.


    Most people were visual animals, so the first thing they paid attention to when they met other people was their attitude.


    If Zhou Feng looked ordinary at this time, then Li Xin would have made a move without saying a word.


    A mere vagabond cultivator dared to covet the Li Clan¡¯s pearl? This was a sign that he was tired of living!


    However, now that Li Xin witnessed Zhou Feng¡¯s temperament, he began to suspect whether Zhou Feng was the disciple of a reclusive sect.


    If that were true, making a move would be looking for trouble for him.


    ¡°Are you sure?¡± Li Xin once again asked the servant who had led him here.


    ¡°This¡­ This¡­¡±


    When the servant looked at Zhou Feng again, he didn¡¯t dare to say he was 100% certain.


    If he made a mistake, he wouldn¡¯t live past tomorrow.


    This was a question that could only be answered after careful consideration..

 Chapter 171 - Heavenly Star Gathering

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Facing Zhou Feng with such a temperament, Li Xin temporarily didn¡¯t plan to make a move.


    After all, Wang Shu hadn¡¯t officially married into his Li Clan, so it wasn¡¯t worth the risk for such a person.


    Besides Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance and temperament, another important reason Li Xin didn¡¯t make a move was that he felt a hint of danger from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Li Xin was a Purple Mansion cultivator, yet his intuition told him that he would be in danger if he made a move against Zhou Feng.


    It must be known that the cultivation that Zhou Feng displayed at this moment was that of a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    A person at the Soul Altar realm actually made him feel threatened?


    It was highly likely that Zhou Feng was a wolf pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. Perhaps, he was one of those freaks who could jump realms and battle Immortals.


    Challenging those of a higher level was as easy as eating and drinking to these freaks.


    Li Xin may be mediocre, but he still could see the dishes being served.


    If Zhou Feng was just an ordinary Soul Altar cultivator, he would naturally use his own and the Li Clan¡¯s strength to crush him.


    But the situation was different now, so he would first observe.


    ¡®Something seems off¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt a few gazes staring at him, and they were hostile. Had he unknowingly gained so many enemies?


    As more and more people were gathering around him, Zhou Feng quickened his pace.


    After entering the inner city, the situation eased quite a bit.


    Zhou Feng had experienced it once before, so he appeared to be very familiar with the route this time and headed straight for the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    This time, the person who received him was still the same old man from last time.


    ¡°You are¡­¡±


    When Elder Zheng saw Zhou Feng again, a trace of doubt flashed across his face.


    There seemed to be some uncertainty in his tone. Compared to last time, Zhou Feng was too different.


    This temperament belonged to a superior. Could it be that he had successfully cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture?


    An expression of disbelief appeared on Elder Zheng¡¯s face.


    He knew the Human Emperor Scripture the best. It was an impossible-to-cultivate cultivation technique.


    Only with the legendary Human Emperor¡¯s talent, coupled with the environment of the ancient times, could one successfully cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Elder Zheng had sold the Human Emperor Scripture more than a dozen times, and all of the people who had bought it were vagabond cultivators.


    Because there had been no Purple Mansion cultivation techniques, they had placed all their hopes on the Human Emperor Scripture.


    In the end, there was no news at all. It was as if all of them had succumbed to the Earth Malevolent Qi that had entered his body.


    And most importantly, even if one succeeded in cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, it still paled compared to the most advanced cultivation techniques of this era.


    The most advanced cultivation techniques had been passed down from generation to generation by the ancient sects.


    Not only were they more suitable for the current environment, but their understanding of the path of cultivation had far surpassed that of the legendary Human Emperor.


    Of course, this was not to belittle the Human Emperor. If the Human Emperor transmigrated to this era and cultivated the most powerful cultivation technique in the world, he would probably be even more terrifying.


    The current comparison was only between the Human Emperor Scripture and the most powerful cultivation technique in the world.


    It was also because of all these reasons that almost everyone could buy the Human Emperor Scripture.


    ¡°These are all Spirit Accumulation Pills. How many Spirit Stones can you exchange them for?¡±


    Elder Zheng, who was already in a state of shock, was flabbergasted in the next second.


    ¡°Spirit Accumulation Pills? These are all of them?¡±


    Elder Zheng took one of the Spirit Accumulation Pills out of the jade bottle and conducted a simple appraisal.


    Although the quality was a little ordinary, all of them were genuine Spirit Accumulation Pills.


    Moreover, there were actually so many of them? How long had it been?


    It had only been a day! And he was able to refine so many Spirit Accumulation Pills?


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s pill refinement skills and young age, he was definitely a genius one must invest in.


    Elder Zheng instantly decided to invest in him.


    Investing in genius cultivators and genius Pill Masters was actually a very common practice in this world.


    This was because most people¡¯s potential was just so-so. If they wanted to continue to climb up, the best way was to invest in the unaffiliated cultivators and wait for the future to pay off.


    Unfortunately, it was difficult to find any geniuses among the unaffiliated cultivators.


    As long as there were slightly better ones, various forces would recruit them in advance.


    There weren¡¯t many opportunities to invest in them.


    Elder Zheng had been in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion for so long, but he had never met a single unaffiliated cultivator who was worth investing in.


    Now, he finally had an opportunity.


    Elder Zheng quickly calculated how many Spirit Stones these Spirit Accumulation Pills were worth. ¡°The price for these Spirit Accumulation Pills should be around 1,000,000 Spirit Stones. I can make the decision to give you 1,500,000 Spirit Stones!¡±


    1,500,000 Spirit Stones!?


    The raw materials for the Spirit Accumulation Pills seemed to only cost around 10,000 Spirit Stones. This was more than 100 times the profit!


    One day? This¡­


    This time, Zhou Feng could clearly feel how rich a Pill Master was.


    He could redeem the medicinal gourd with just one night of hard work.


    Moreover, he had accumulated a lot of Spirit Stones. He even had the Spirit Stones to open the pill shop this time.


    And all of this was due to his passive skill. He probably wouldn¡¯t have earned so many Spirit Stones if he didn¡¯t have this passive skill.


    If it was a normal Pill Master¡­


    First of all, becoming a Class 1 Pill Master required numerous resources, not to mention refining the Spirit Accumulation Pill.


    Every new pill recipe required countless hours of research, and only after one had mastered it could they officially refine it.


    This required countless resources, but Zhou Feng skipped all the previous stages. He didn¡¯t need to expend so many resources to practice, so the speed he earned Spirit Stones was naturally ridiculous.


    Elder Zheng suddenly took out an invitation card.


    ¡°There¡¯s also an invitation card here. It¡¯s an invitation card for the Heavenly Star Gathering in three days!¡±


    The invitation card had a purplish-gold luster, with countless stars adorning it.


    ¡®Heavenly Star Gathering?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the invitation card and then at Elder Zheng.


    ¡°This is a gathering that Heavenly Star City holds every year. The people who can attend are the heirs of the major forces of Heavenly Star City.¡±


    Elder Zheng began to explain.


    This so-called Heavenly Star Gathering was a gathering of influential people.


    However, the people who held the gathering could not be underestimated. They were the heirs of the top forces in Heavenly Star City.


    This also meant that the top cultivators of the younger generation in Heavenly Star City would attend.


    The purpose of the Heavenly Star Gathering was very simple. It was to communicate with and compete with each other.


    Cultivating behind closed doors was the most undesirable thing in the path of cultivation.


    Therefore, the necessary communication was very important. Moreover, all kinds of information would be exchanged at this gathering.


    There were even soul artifact transactions, cultivation techniques transactions, and so on.


    All the young cultivators wanted to squeeze into this private gathering.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    The more Elder Zheng explained, the more traces of confusion Zhou Feng¡¯s face betrayed.


    ¡®Such a good thing was handed to me like that? Is this a mistake!?¡¯


    If he remembered correctly, he and Elder Zheng had only met for the second time..

 Chapter 172 - Prodigal Son

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°I¡¯m old, but I have a bunch of useless descendants behind me!¡±


    Elder Zheng made it clear. He wanted to invest in Zhou Feng in exchange for the safety of his descendants.


    After all, they had only met twice. Was it really good to be so direct?


    Wasn¡¯t he afraid that Zhou Feng would turn hostile after receiving the benefits?


    The last time Zhou Feng encountered such a situation was when he met Qian Shang and his daughter again.


    This kind of familiar feeling was really¡­


    ¡°Don¡¯t be anxious. I originally planned to exchange this invitation for Spirit Stones. It¡¯s just that I¡¯m giving it to you now.


    ¡°I have high hopes for you, so I¡¯ll invest in you. You don¡¯t need to feel pressured.¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng was about to speak, Elder Zheng was the first to speak.


    Originally, there were many invitations, and Elder Zheng would make a move every year.


    In order to make the atmosphere more lively, the Heavenly Star Gathering would send out more invitations every year.


    This could also be considered as giving some vagabond cultivators and talented people an opportunity.


    People like Zhou Feng had the qualifications to go to the Heavenly Star Gathering under such conditions.


    Elder Zheng was just taking advantage of the situation.


    Moreover, Elder Zheng didn¡¯t ask Zhou Feng to do anything, but he could take care of him when he was free and had the ability.


    Since Elder Zheng was so direct, Zhou Feng had no reason to reject him.


    ¡°Oh, right. Holy Maiden Green Lotus will also be attending this Heavenly Star Gathering. That Holy Maiden is not an easy person to deal with.¡±


    Elder Zheng reminded him to be careful of Holy Maiden Green Lotus. It was best not to come into contact with the people of the Green Lotus Sect if possible.


    After all, the Green Lotus fellows were a bunch of madmen, so they were not normal people.


    ¡®Be careful of the Green Lotus Sect?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not know the exact situation of this unfamiliar sect.


    However, he thought that he should not have any contact with the Green Lotus Sect.


    ¡°Alright then. The information I provided is not free of charge. A total of 100,000 Spirit Stones, thank you!¡±


    After Elder Zheng warned him to be careful of the Green Lotus Sect, he immediately changed the topic.


    The speed of this change caught Zhou Feng off guard.


    ¡®A fee? 100,000 Spirit Stones!?


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    To be honest, just that invitation card alone was worth more than 100,000 Spirit Stones, and there were also so many useful pieces of information attached to it.


    It was Elder Zheng¡¯s sudden change that caught him somewhat off guard.


    It was obvious that Elder Zheng was a true shrewd person.


    Investing in a genius wasn¡¯t just about giving benefits, nor was it a one-sided relationship.


    Sometimes, too much kindness was also a disaster.


    There was once a time when one family¡¯s kindness to another was too great, so great that it couldn¡¯t be repaid in a few lifetimes.


    Thus, the family that received kindness simply killed their benefactor, so there was no need to repay the kindness.


    If Elder Zheng only paid the price, then the positions of both sides would be out of balance, and it was extremely easy for disasters to happen.


    Elder Zheng was now using the Spirit Stones to balance the positions of both sides.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Zhou Feng paid the 100,000 Spirit Stones fee readily.


    At that moment, his heart was in a state of confusion. He did not expect that the people of this world would be so decisive.


    First, it was Qian Shang and his daughter, and then it was Elder Zheng. After meeting him a few times, he was able to make up his mind to invest in him.


    Did this count as meeting a nobleman?


    Perhaps Qian Shang and his daughter weren¡¯t noblemen, but this Elder Zheng was definitely one.


    ¡®Still, it feels good to be valued!¡¯


    When Zhou Feng walked out of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, he was in a great mood. After all, being appreciated by others was truly a wonderful feeling.


    However, this good mood didn¡¯t last long.


    ¡°It¡¯s you! ? How could it be¡­¡±


    Wang Shu¡¯s smile instantly disappeared and was replaced by shock.


    Obviously, Wang Shu was also shocked by Zhou Feng at this time.


    Compared to the last time they had met, Zhou Feng was like a prince who had come to Heavenly Star City to take a stroll.


    If Wang Shu hadn¡¯t seen Zhou Feng before, he probably wouldn¡¯t have recognized him just now.


    ¡®It¡¯s this person!¡¯


    Zhou Feng also recognized Wang Shu. After all, Wang Shu¡¯s silkpants personality had left a deep impression on people.


    Wang Shu had sent people to follow him after leaving the gambling den if he remembered correctly.


    It was just that he had managed to shake them off at that time.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Brother Wang? Is this person your enemy?¡±


    Bai Lie sized up Zhou Feng, his expression becoming a little more serious.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I don¡¯t know where he came from, but he¡¯s a vagabond cultivator! I haven¡¯t seen him for a few days, and he¡¯s actually become such a dog-like person!¡±


    Wang Shu was acting like a silkpants, not even looking directly at Zhou Feng. Even his tone was filled with disdain.


    ¡°What? This person is a vagabond cultivator? A mere vagabond cultivator, and he dares to show off in front of this Young Master?¡±


    The originally cautious Bai Lie¡¯s expression changed when he heard Wang Shu¡¯s words.


    Bai Lie had thought that Zhou Feng was the Young Master of a noble clan, but he did not expect that he was just a vagabond cultivator.


    A vagabond cultivator had such good looks? He was simply courting death!


    Bai Lie¡¯s looks were not outstanding, his cultivation aptitude was not very good, and some noble ladies had even ridiculed him, so he was filled with malice toward those handsome men with no background.


    On the other hand, he would sing praises toward those handsome men with deep backgrounds.


    Coupled with his backing from the Bai Clan, Bai Lie could be considered a very famous profligate son in Heavenly Star City.


    ¡®Is this person sick?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly sensed that the person beside Wang Shu was filled with malice toward him, and his heart instantly filled with puzzlement.


    He didn¡¯t seem to have done anything, right? Why did this person have such malice toward him?


    ¡°You! Do you know who I am?¡±


    Bai Lie walked up to Zhou Feng and displayed his prodigal-son nature.


    ¡°It¡¯s that prodigal son of the Bai Clan again?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s that prodigal son of the Bai Clan again!¡±


    ¡°That vagabond cultivator is so unlucky? This madman actually blocked him?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Bai Lie¡¯s arrogant voice also attracted several people to gather around and watch.


    From the conversations of the surrounding people, one could tell that this Bai Lie could be considered quite famous in this area.


    They were all used to Bai Lie¡¯s character. He specialized in bullying the weak and fearing the strong.


    In any case, as long as one did not have a background, he would deal with them to the death.


    Regardless of how big or small the faction behind them, those with a background were not to be provoked. Sometimes, they would even act as a lackey.


    ¡°Bullying the weak and fearing the strong? Which one of you isn¡¯t like this? This is called being sensible!¡±


    The above sentence was Bai Lie¡¯s response to the ridicule of the others.


    It had to be said that Bai Lie had lived a straightforward life.


    Bai Lie¡¯s life was very comfortable based on the principle of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. There was no pressure on cultivation, and he could bully others from time to time.


    Every time he saw those vagabond cultivators who dared to be angry but would not speak up, Bai Lie would feel comfortable all over.


    Bai Lie¡¯s existence simply spoke of how great it was to be a good-for-nothing.


    ¡°I don¡¯t think you know what you look like! Listen carefully! I am Bai Lie of the Heavenly Star City¡¯s Bai Clan!¡±


    Bai Lie got straight to the point and displayed his backing.


    Under such circumstances, when most of the vagabond cultivators heard of the Heavenly Star City¡¯s Bai Clan, they would be shocked.


    This was because the Bai Clan was one of the four great clans of Heavenly Star City. They controlled the entire Heavenly Star City¡¯s spirit pet market..

 Chapter 173 - Straight to the Root

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It¡¯s as strange as the rumors say!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s really unfortunate for the Bai Clan to have such a descendant!¡±


    ¡°But no matter what, the Bai Clan still stands behind this person. Ordinary vagabond cultivators probably wouldn¡¯t dare to make a move!¡±


    Seeing Bai Lie announce his background, the surrounding onlookers couldn¡¯t hold themselves back.


    Bai Lie was indeed similar to the rumors.


    Although he was an arrogant and despotic silkpants, he was timid and afraid of death.


    Every time he bullied the weak and feared the strong, the first thing he did was to bring out his backing.


    He would always use the Bai Clan to threaten those vagabond cultivators.


    As long as one stayed in Heavenly Star City for a period, they would learn that Heavenly Star City had four super forces.


    One of them was the Bai Clan, which was in charge of the circulation of all spirit beasts.


    Usually, at this time, when ordinary vagabond cultivators heard that Bai Lie left the clan, they would be frightened.


    If there was any hint of timidity on one¡¯s face, then Bai Lie¡¯s face would be overjoyed.


    This was because Bai Lie knew that this kind of person was the easiest to bully. There wouldn¡¯t be many problems as long as he didn¡¯t go overboard.


    Bai Lie¡¯s eccentric name could be considered famous in the entire Heavenly Star City.


    However, Bai Lie¡¯s status was quite high. He was the son of the current Bai Clan Leader, and his mother¡¯s clan was also quite powerful.


    His mother was from the City Lord¡¯s side.


    With the protection of two forces, Bai Lie could be considered to be walking unhindered in Heavenly Star City.


    To these two forces, raising a good-for-nothing was just raising a good-for-nothing!


    In any case, Bai Lie did not consume too many resources. Moreover, Bai Lie¡¯s brothers did not wish to have another competitor.


    Therefore, they deliberately connived at Bai Lie¡¯s actions and even stood up for him.


    In the end, they created such a hedonistic person.


    To such a person, Wang Shu was also a hedonistic person on the surface. Naturally, he had made friends with Bai Lie on purpose.


    Even the appearance of Bai Lie and Wang Shu today was deliberately arranged by Wang Shu.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing Bai Lie loudly shout that the Bai Clan was behind him in front of everyone, Zhou Feng remained eerily calm.


    He only looked at Bai Lie indifferently.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses told him that this person in front of him had no malicious intent toward him.


    Therefore, he did not plan to attack directly.


    He had always had a clear judgment when dealing with his enemies.


    That was whether he had malicious intent toward himself. If they did not, then he could look at the situation.


    If the opponent deliberately targeted him and had malicious intent, Zhou Feng would not say anything and directly make a move.


    Take for example Wang Shu, who was behind Bai Lie. Zhou Feng sensed strong malice from Wang Shu.


    ¡®He hates me so much? Is it because of that silly bet from the gambling den?¡¯ Zhou Feng pondered.


    He did not seem to have much interaction with Wang Shu, except for some friction during the gambling den.


    He did not expect Wang Shu to hate him so much. Just because of a woman?


    Compared to Bai Lie, he felt that Wang Shu should be eliminated more.


    As for the Bai Clan or the other forces, Zhou Feng did not have a clear understanding of them.


    In any case, if they dared to harbor malicious intentions toward him, he would take action. If he provoked someone that he could not afford to offend, he would immediately run away.


    If he could not run away, he would just die on the spot. There was nothing much to say.


    That was what Zhou Feng was thinking at this moment.


    ¡°You¡­ You¡¯re not afraid of my Bai Clan? This is one of the four great clans in Heavenly Star City!


    ¡°Let me tell you! My father is a Divine Ability expert!¡±


    When Bai Lie noticed that Zhou Feng was still expressionless, he emphasized his backing and even mentioned his Divine Ability father.


    ¡®My father is a Divine Ability expert! What do you think?¡¯


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect to meet that brat, Bai Lie. This time, I should be able to probe out something!¡±


    Li Xin, who had been hiding nearby, was very happy when he saw this.


    This way, he would be able to probe out Zhou Feng¡¯s true strength.


    Zhou Feng probably wouldn¡¯t have thought that he would be unable to remain low-key.


    After entering Heavenly Star City, he had already attracted the attention of two of the four great clans of Heavenly Star City.


    The Bai Clan and the Li Clan.


    ¡°Are you the one who has been causing trouble behind the scenes?¡±


    Zhou Feng was also a little impatient. Recently, someone had been following him behind the scenes.


    The person who caused all this trouble should be Wang Shu.


    Because this person¡¯s malice toward him was the greatest, he did not want to waste his brain to think about what exactly had happened behind his back.


    Since this person was deliberately targeting him, then he should eliminate the threat from the root.


    Zhou Feng bypassed Bai Lie and targeted Wang Shu.


    Moreover, while Zhou Feng was asking questions, he also erupted with a terrifying aura.


    The dense Blood Qi directly formed a streak of smoke above his head. This streak of smoke faintly had the shape of a dragon.


    The surroundings seemed to have been ignited in an instant. His pure Blood Qi gave people great pressure.


    Ever since he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, not only was the Demon-Devouring Gu expelled from his body expelled, but even his entire temperament had changed.


    The dense Demonic Qi from before had completely disappeared.


    Now, it had turned into an imposing and domineering aura, like a brilliant sun¡¯s rays.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying aura instantly suppressed Wang Shu, and his face was filled with disbelief.


    ¡®That¡¯s not right! Bai Lie provoked you! Why are you trying to find trouble with me? Is there something wrong with your head!?¡¯


    Wang Shu had never thought that Zhou Feng would ignore Bai Lie and target him.


    Originally, Wang Shu looked like he was watching a good show.


    Wang Shu had come into contact with Zhou Feng before, so he knew that Zhou Feng had a fearless personality.


    This kind of person didn¡¯t care about what kind of background one had; he was just a hot-tempered person.


    After finding out about his personality, it was much easier to go against him. Not to mention, this kind of rash personality was even easier to be manipulated.


    According to Wang Shu¡¯s plan, once Bai Lie, this extremely good-for-nothing, provoked Zhou Feng, the latter would not admit defeat and would take action.


    Once both sides took action, Wang Shu would also take the opportunity to join in and fight against Zhou Feng together with Bai Lie.


    In this way, the matter would become two silkpants targeting a vagabond cultivator.


    Wang Shu¡¯s facade would be preserved due to this reason.


    One of the important reasons Wang Shu targeted Zhou Feng was to eliminate the threat and secure his position as the future son-in-law of the Li Clan. The other reason was to maintain his facade.


    After being provoked, a silkpants would not be able to endure it. Instead, they would seek revenge.


    However, the current situation was not right!


    Why was Zhou Feng targeting Wang Shu instead!?


    ¡°F*ck!¡±


    After sensing the aura Zhou Feng was exuding, Bai Lie immediately fled.


    To Bai Lie, protecting himself was the most important thing.


    There was actually a hotheaded youth who dared to ignore the Bai Clan and was prepared to make a move in front of everyone.


    Bai Lie¡¯s instinct told him to flee.


    He would wait until later to take revenge because Zhou Feng¡¯s actions could be considered as ignoring the Bai Clan¡¯s prestige.


    Later on, the Bai Clan would seek revenge.


    Although Bai Lie was a piece of trash, the Bai Clan¡¯s prestige could not be insulted by just anyone.


    It was precisely because of this reason that when many vagabond cultivators met Bai Lie, even if they were extremely humiliated in their hearts, they still did not dare to do anything unnecessary..

 Chapter 174 - Life-and-Death Battle!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After a brief moment of shock, Wang Shu¡¯s expression returned to calmness. ¡°What? You dare to make a move?¡±


    He simply did not believe that Zhou Feng would dare to make a move. After all, this was the inner city of Heavenly Star City.


    It was different from the outer city, where management was lax.


    As long as no one was caught in the outer city, then nothing major would happen.


    But as long as anyone dared to fight in the inner city, they would all be caught; unless one was strong enough to ignore Heavenly Star City¡¯s rules.


    It was because of this that Wang Shu was not afraid of Zhou Feng making a move.


    This formed a stark contrast with Bai Lie, hiding at the side.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say anything. He only frowned.


    At that moment, he was calculating how to escape from Heavenly Star City.


    If he could kill Wang Shu in one fell swoop, it should not be a problem for him to escape from Heavenly Star City while everyone was not paying attention.


    He just needed to consider how to face Heavenly Star City¡¯s pursuit.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, the person who wanted to harm him had to be eliminated immediately.


    The longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.


    There was no chance of reconciliation between him and Wang Shu.


    If this continued, Wang Shu would think of all sorts of ways to target him. Wang Shu would even rely on the Heavenly Star City¡¯s rules as a protective shell and then target him in all sorts of means.


    With that thought in mind, he might as well make a move directly.


    If Zhou Feng let Wang Shu go this time, then there wouldn¡¯t be many chances to make a move against Wang Shu in the future.


    ¡°It can¡¯t be! This person seems to really want to attack?¡±


    ¡°No one has attacked in the inner city for a long time. Who is this person? How dare he?¡±


    ¡°This person seems to be a little unscrupulous. What cultivation technique does he cultivate? Why is the Blood Qi so thick?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s serious thinking made people want to ridicule him.


    Could it be that this person was considering the consequences of making a move in the inner city?


    This person was stupid and bold.


    Wang Shu saw Zhou Feng¡¯s serious look and couldn¡¯t help but feel apprehensive.


    It couldn¡¯t be for real!


    ¡°Making a move in the inner city is a very serious matter. I believe that the two distinguished guests don¡¯t want to be like this in front of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.¡±


    Elder Zheng walked out of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion just as the surrounding atmosphere began to freeze.


    It turned out that because there were too many onlookers, the entrance of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was blocked.


    The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion naturally didn¡¯t want this kind of situation to escalate in front of their own door.


    After that, Elder Zheng discovered that Zhou Feng had a conflict with someone here and became anxious. After all, it wasn¡¯t easy for him to find a wandering prodigy that was worth investing in.


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t matured yet, so he couldn¡¯t die here prematurely.


    Although Elder Zheng was investing in Zhou Feng to buy some peace of mind, it was actually for the sake of having more security for his future descendants.


    Elder Zheng didn¡¯t want to lose money on this investment so quickly either.


    Therefore, he stood out at the first moment to stop the conflict.


    ¡°The people from Heavenly Treasure Pavilion are out!¡±


    ¡°Boring! It seems that there won¡¯t be any waves!¡±


    Seeing Elder Zheng appear to stop the conflict, many people who wanted to watch the show could not help but look disappointed.


    This conflict should not cause any waves.


    Upon seeing Elder Zheng, Wang Shu also heaved a sigh of relief.


    But in the next second, Elder Zheng¡¯s words almost made Wang Shu unable to breathe.


    ¡°If the two of you really want to fight, why don¡¯t you go to the Life-Death Arena to settle it? Since Young Master Wang is here, you must also want to revitalize the Wang Clan¡¯s prestige!¡±


    Elder Zheng¡¯s words had a faint intention of targeting Wang Shu.


    The Wang Clan had already declined for a very long time. It was only recently that their prestige had slightly risen.


    This period was crucial for the Wang Clan. The clan¡¯s prestige was especially important.


    This suggestion would force Wang Shu to go to the Life-Death Arena and fight Zhou Feng.


    If Wang Shu refused, then the Wang Clan¡¯s momentum would be suppressed.


    After all, many clans didn¡¯t want to see a fallen clan stand up again.


    If the Wang Clan regained its prestige, the cake would be shared with the Wang Clan.


    The other clans were naturally not willing.


    And the most vicious thing was that even if Wang Shu defeated Zhou Feng in the Life-Death Arena, he would not be able to gain prestige. After all, Zhou was a vagabond cultivator.


    As the heir of a large clan, defeating a vagabond cultivator was nothing to be proud of.


    There were no benefits to winning, and there were disadvantages to losing.


    Wang Shu wanted to vomit blood in his heart.


    ¡®This¡­ Is this intentional or unintentional? Why would the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion help such a vagabond cultivator?¡¯


    Wang Shu¡¯s current expression was as if he had swallowed a lump of shit. It was extremely ugly.


    ¡®Life-Death Arena?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not think that there was such a place in Heavenly Star City as well.


    But thinking about it, cultivators were all proud and arrogant people¡ªit was inevitable that there would be conflicts.


    If there wasn¡¯t a place to resolve these conflicts, they would explode one day.


    ¡°Alright! See you in the Life-Death Arena!¡±


    Zhou Feng was naturally willing to go to the Life-Death Arena to resolve this matter.


    Moreover, he had not fought for a long time, which made him uncomfortable.


    After all, during his time in the Tri-Gu Sect, he had had to fight almost every once in a while.


    He was used to that kind of high-pressure environment, so it was difficult for him to adapt to such a stable environment.


    It was also a good opportunity to test whether his strength had declined or not.


    Elder Zheng kindly reminded Wang Shu, ¡°Young Master Wang? You don¡¯t want to let the Wang Clan lose face, right? I am also looking forward to seeing you regain the former glory of the Wang Clan!¡±


    In fact, this sentence was to make Wang Shu quickly make a decision.


    ¡°Of course! The reputation of our Wang Clan is not something that a mere cultivator can tarnish!¡±


    Wang Shu braced himself and agreed.


    If he didn¡¯t agree, the clan would not let him off.


    At the same time, Wang Shu felt that he was a little timid.


    The person in front of him was only a mere vagabond cultivator. Although his aura was powerful, he definitely didn¡¯t have a spiritual weapon.


    There was a huge gap between the descendants of large clans and vagabond cultivators.


    Wang Shu felt that he might not necessarily lose to Zhou Feng if he treated this seriously.


    ¡°But this needs to happen in three days! This will allow him to make more preparations and also prevent others from saying that my Wang Clan is bullying vagabond cultivators!¡±


    Although Wang Shu agreed, he did not say that he would do it now. Instead, he set the time to three days later.


    On the surface, he said that he was giving Zhou Feng time to prepare so as to avoid saying that the Wang Clan was bullying a vagabond cultivator.


    In reality, Wang Shu felt that it was not safe, so he would take advantage of these three days to borrow a few spiritual artifacts from his clan as a guarantee.


    Furthermore, this battle could also be used as a warm-up for him to marry into the Li Clan.


    If he could win this match beautifully, then Wang Shu could prove himself to the Li Clan.


    Other than being a silkpants, he also had some strength. He wasn¡¯t completely useless.


    If he performed well, he could even earn some reputation for the Wang Clan.


    As he thought about it, Wang Shu began to calculate again.


    This battle might not necessarily turn into a bad thing.


    Unfortunately, what he did not know was that all of these were under the premise of being able to defeat Zhou Feng. Otherwise, all of the above-mentioned calculations would be empty talk..

 Chapter 175 - Sudden Fame

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®This is the threat! Other than this threat, there shouldn¡¯t be anyone deliberately targeting me!¡¯ Zhou Feng was thinking in his heart.


    Ever entering Heavenly Star City, he didn¡¯t seem to have offended many people other than Wang Shu.


    As long as he dealt with Wang Shu, there shouldn¡¯t be so much trouble.


    After Wang Shu and Zhou Feng agreed on the battle, the latter left in a hurry.


    There were still a lot of things that needed his attention.


    Although Zhou Feng had left, their upcoming battle had attracted a lot of attention. The Wang Clan may have declined, but they had once enjoyed glory.


    A lot of people were keeping an eye on an old clan that had the opportunity to rise again.


    Not to mention that the battle had to do with the noble daughter of the Li Clan.


    That¡¯s right!


    No one knew who had spread the rumor that Zhou Feng and Wang Shu had agreed to fight because of the noble daughter of the Li Clan.


    The Wang Clan might not attract many people¡¯s attention, but if it involved the Li Clan, then the situation would be different.


    The Li Clan was one of the four strongest clans in Heavenly Star City.


    They controlled a Spirit Stone Vein.


    Other than being able to mine Spirit Stones, they could also sell Spirit Vein Stones as stone materials for stone gambling.


    In the entire Heavenly Star City, other than the City Lord¡¯s mansion, only the Li Clan had a Spirit Stone Vein.


    And relying on their abundant financial resources, the Li Clan had managed to surpass the other three great clans.


    Not to mention that the Li Clan only had one noble daughter in this generation; it could be said that they were the stars supporting the moon.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the Li Clan insisted on finding a son-in-law and made it clear that they wouldn¡¯t consider the large clans, Wang Shu wouldn¡¯t have been able to win.


    It was probably not Wang Shu¡¯s turn.


    ¡°What? Wang Shu¡¯s opponent is a vagabond cultivator?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I don¡¯t know what exactly is going on, but is the Wang Clan so devalued now?¡±


    ¡°Fighting with a vagabond cultivator? Even if he wins, it¡¯s not a big deal, right?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know, but this vagabond cultivator doesn¡¯t seem simple!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    This battle instantly became the topic of conversation in Heavenly Star City.


    Many people also investigated Zhou Feng. What qualifications did this vagabond cultivator have to eye the noble daughter of the Li Clan?


    Elder Zheng felt that this was a good opportunity. It could allow Zhou Feng to obtain a higher reputation in Heavenly Star City.


    As someone who had experienced life, Elder Zheng was clear that the further one progressed on the path of cultivation, the harder it was to obtain cultivation resources. Some cultivation resources would only circulate in some small circles.


    Therefore, reputation was very important. It was even more important to let more people know about it.


    Elder Zheng had seen some solitary and arrogant wandering cultivator geniuses. They believed that if their aptitude were good, they would be able to break through all difficult problems.


    But in the end, because their circle was too small and the things they obtained were too little, they became ordinary people at the end of their cultivation.


    Thus, Elder Zheng directly created momentum for Zhou Feng.


    It could also be considered as an increased investment in Zhou Feng, but this was also a test.


    Elder Zheng¡¯s investment would just end there if Zhou Feng didn¡¯t make it through. As such, he would cut his losses.


    Soon after, the news that Zhou Feng was a genius cultivator and Pill Master spread out.


    In addition, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion had given proof that Zhou Feng had sold the most difficult Grade-1 pill to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, the Spirit Accumulation Pill.


    There were numerous Spirit Accumulation Pills.


    ¡°A Class 1 Pill Master? He¡¯s about to break through to Class 2 Pill?¡±


    ¡°No way! This person doesn¡¯t seem to be very old!¡±


    ¡°I heard that he¡¯s not even 20! And while refining pills, his cultivation hasn¡¯t dropped. He¡¯s a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator and about to break through to the Purple Mansion realm!¡±


    ¡°Also! I heard that this Zhou Feng could break through to the Purple Mansion realm long ago, but he just doesn¡¯t have a suitable cultivation technique!¡±


    ¡°Also! This pill refinement technique is also the legacy of a vagabond Pill Master. This Zhou Feng completely relied on his own talent to reach this point.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people appeared in Heavenly Star City to promote Zhou Feng within a single night.


    They presented him as a genius vagabond cultivator.


    Just by relying on some vagabond cultivator¡¯s legacy, he had cultivated to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm and even learned pill refinement.


    To be honest, not only did Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation reach Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm, but he was also a Class 1 Pill Master.


    This was difficult for a vagabond cultivator.


    To achieve such accomplishments, one had to be extremely talented.


    If Zhou Feng was really as described above¡­


    Then he seemed to have some qualifications to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    Given his talent, in addition to the enormous resources of the Li Clan, he would secure his breakthrough to the Purple Mansion realm. He may even have a chance to reach the Divine Ability realm.


    The big clans didn¡¯t care much about cultivation and talent, but the identity of a Pill Master was another matter. It was hard for any clan to refuse this.


    In the end, the Li Clan was really alarmed.


    ¡°Aunt, what¡¯s going on? What happened?¡±


    Li Rong was a little confused.


    Li Manya wasn¡¯t sure what had happened either. Why were people saying that the Li Clan was going to choose Li Rong¡¯s husband between Wang Shu and Zhou Feng?


    This did not seem right!


    The Elders should not be so impatient.


    ¡°This¡­ Aunty does not know either. But there is one thing that Aunty wants to ask you. If you had to choose between Wang Shu and Zhou Feng, who would you choose?¡±


    Li Manya¡¯s sudden question stumped Li Rong.


    ¡°Aunt¡­ Why are you asking such a question all of a sudden?¡±


    Li Rong could not help but feel a little shy.


    ¡°Now you have to answer! Because there¡¯s not much time left for you to choose!¡±


    At that moment, Li Manya¡¯s face was slightly solemn.


    After such a long time had passed, Li Rong¡¯s marriage could not be dragged on any longer. The longer it dragged on, the longer the other large clans would not give up.


    And the Li Clan did not want to change their neutral attitude.


    Therefore, Li Rong¡¯s marriage had to be arranged quickly. Previously, they had sorted through many candidates, but only Wang Shu was suitable in the end.


    The other suitable ones were either from the big clans or too unreliable.


    In the Li Elders¡¯ eyes, although Wang Shu was a little indulgent, it was best to control this kind of indulgent person. Marrying into the Li Clan would also save them a lot of trouble.


    Not to mention that the Wang Clan had once suppressed the Li Clan. Now, they were at the Li Clan¡¯s mercy.


    Some of the Li Elders were secretly pleased.


    However, because of Li Rong¡¯s strong opposition, this matter had been delayed.


    Now, Zhou Feng had suddenly appeared. Not only was he a vagabond cultivator but also a Pill Master.


    According to Li Manya¡¯s guess, the Li Elders should also accept Zhou Feng marrying into the Li Clan.


    After all, taking in such a highly qualified vagabond cultivator was considered an improvement to the Li Clan¡¯s bloodline.


    Now that the two candidates were here, Li Rong¡¯s opinion was very important.


    As long as Li Rong was partial to one side, that side had a high chance of becoming the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    Li Rong was at a loss for words. After all, girls were relatively thin-skinned.


    She would never pick Wang Shu, so naturally, there was only one choice left.


    However, Li Rong and Zhou Feng had only met once. This progress seemed to be a little too fast.


    Still, it was undeniable that Li Rong¡¯s first impression of Zhou Feng was very good..

 Chapter 176 - Refining Pills Like Crazy

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Got it! But you have to be prepared! Zhou Feng is not that easy to tame!¡±


    Seeing Li Rong stuttering, Li Manya instantly understood what she meant.


    The only thing she was worried about now was whether Li Rong could tame Zhou Feng.


    From Zhou Feng¡¯s performance, this person was extremely proud and would probably disdain to marry into the Li Clan.


    Given Li Rong¡¯s personality, taming such a person was simply too difficult.


    This required something to tie Zhou Feng down.


    Zhou Feng was completely unaware that he was chosen as the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    As for asking his thoughts? There was no need to ask.


    It was a great blessing for a vagabond cultivator to be able to marry into the Li Clan.


    This could be described as a pie falling from the sky.


    Once one became the son-in-law of the Li Clan, not only would they be able to access many resources, but they would even be able to learn many secrets.


    Purple Mansion realm? This was the goal of every vagabond cultivator in their lifetime.


    As long as Zhou Feng entered the Li Clan, it wouldn¡¯t be a problem at all.


    Apart from these, he would also obtain a fragrant and tender beauty for free.


    Li Rong was known as one of the three beauties of Heavenly Star City. Not only was she pure and lovely, but her figure was also voluptuous.


    If he could become the son-in-law of the Li Clan, he would instantly attract the envy and jealousy of all the men in Heavenly Star City.


    It was precisely because of this that it was already a consensus to ignore Zhou Feng¡¯s opinion.


    Only a fool would reject such a good thing.


    Just as Li Manya was planning to let Zhou Feng become the son-in-law of the Li Clan¡­


    The Wang Clan, where Wang Shu was, was not idle either.


    Zhou Feng had suddenly become popular in Heavenly Star City. Apart from Elder Zheng, who was adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes¡­


    The Wang Clan also played a vital role in it.


    Wang Shu wanted to rely on this battle to raise his reputation and become the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    Then, the most important point was to raise his opponent¡¯s status crazily.


    At the same time, he would silently belittle himself, causing everyone to have an illusion.


    They thought that Zhou Feng was a rising vagabond cultivator, while Wang Shu was just a good-for-nothing who was courting death.


    In the end, the outcome would be reversed.


    Wang Shu would shock everyone during their battle, defeating Zhou Feng in a crushing manner.


    Before the duel, everyone had different expectations for both sides. This result would naturally change their impression of Wang Shu.


    Wang Shu did not want to be a silkpants for the rest of his life.


    He was also an ambitious person. He could use this opportunity to get rid of his status as a silkpants.


    If Zhou Feng, who everyone was praising now, was defeated, his reputation in Heavenly Star City would naturally plummet.


    At that time, it would be impossible for him to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    ¡°But all of this is based on the fact that I must win!¡±


    After Wang Shu finalized his plan, he raised a very important point.


    That was how to win this duel.


    Although Wang Shu had concealed some of his strength because he pretended to be a silkpants, his aptitude wasn¡¯t that great, to begin with, while his battle talent was ordinary.


    He was like Zhou Feng, a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator.


    Under such conditions, what method was there to take down Zhou Feng firmly?


    ¡°Looks like it¡¯s time to bring out the Wang Clan¡¯s foundation!¡±


    The Wang Clan Leader was silent for a moment, feeling that it was time to use the Wang Clan¡¯s foundation.


    The Wang Clan had once been considered a large clan that could intimidate a region in Heavenly Star City. The Li Clan had only been able to eat sh*t behind the Wang Clan back then.


    Unfortunately, the Wang Clan had plummeted after experiencing the last war against Demons.


    Now, they had no choice but to let the current heir marry into the Li Clan.


    But even so, the Wang Clan still had some foundation.


    This final bit of foundation could allow a person to break through to the Purple Mansion realm forcefully.


    Originally, it was to ensure that no matter how weak the Wang Clan was, there would always be a Purple Mansion expert in the clan.


    Now was the best time to use this foundation.


    Purple Mansion realm versus Soul Altar realm!


    Even if Wang Shu wasn¡¯t good at fighting, he could still directly use his realm to crush them.


    Apart from that, the Wang Clan still had a few spiritual artifacts, and the Wang Clan planned to hand them all over to Wang Shu to use.


    Purple Mansion realm! A few spiritual artifacts!


    If Wang Shu couldn¡¯t even take down a vagabond Soul Altar cultivator like this, then he could commit suicide!


    This was the foundation of a large clan.


    The difference between a cultivator from a large clan and a vagabond cultivator like Zhou Feng was still very large.


    An ordinary vagabond cultivator probably wouldn¡¯t even be able to draw out Spiritual Qi, much less a spiritual item that could assist in breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡°Very good! If it¡¯s the Purple Mansion realm versus the Soul Altar realm, then the biggest flaw in my plan would be gone!¡±


    After Wang Shu heard his father¡¯s words, his confidence soared.


    He was even starting to be impatient to fight Zhou Feng to the death!


    Thinking about Zhou Feng¡¯s arrogant attitude earlier, Wang Shu couldn¡¯t help but clench his fists.


    The Wang Clan and the Li Clan each had their own plans.


    Some other clans even wanted to make use of this matter to reap benefits.


    Zhou Feng was the only one who didn¡¯t rely on schemes.


    He relaxed and slowly carried out the plan in his heart as usual.


    After leaving the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, he returned to his residence.


    Qian Shang and his daughter were also very efficient in handling matters. Soon, they found a few shops.


    These shops were all in the outer city, and their locations were very good. The only drawback was that they were a little expensive.


    Zhou Feng wildly earned 1,500,000 Spirit Stones a day, but he didn¡¯t take this bit of Spirit Stones seriously.


    He gave the 100,000 Spirit Stones to Qian Shang and asked him to take care of everything.


    Meanwhile, he was preparing to refine pills.


    ¡°I wonder how many Rejuvenation Pills can I refine in one batch?¡±


    Zhou Feng had already decided that he wanted to refine pills to earn Spirit Stones on the way back.


    Because he had the passive Skill Proficiency, there would always be a 15% success rate no matter how he refined.


    Then a pill like the Spirit Accumulation Pill, which consumed time and effort, was not suitable for this passive.


    A pill whose refining speed was relatively fast while the price of raw materials was relatively low was very suitable for this passive skill.


    Zhou Feng could refine this kind of pill in large quantities, and once the scale was raised, it would be able to pull the cost down crazily.


    As long as you bought enough raw materials that were not rare, then the purchase price can be lowered.


    The Rejuvenation Pill was the simplest and most basic pill among the Grade-1 pills, and the one he chose. This kind of pill was.


    It had the effect of restoring spiritual power.


    A pill that restored spiritual power! It was a hard currency for all cultivators because their own spiritual power was absolutely insufficient.


    Besides slowly absorbing Spiritual Qi to recover, using pills was the most convenient.


    Therefore, the demand for the Rejuvenation Pill was great.


    ¡°Spiritual fire! Rise!¡±


    Zhou Feng opened the cauldron to refine the pill.


    The moment Zhou Feng started refining, he felt as if he had entered a special state.


    Under this state, Zhou Feng could clearly sense the situation in the cauldron.


    If two words were used to describe this state, it would be ¡®divine help¡¯!


    Zhou Feng was clear that this was Skill Proficiency¡¯s passive 15% guarantee.


    Every time he refined 100 cauldrons of pills, this state would be triggered 15 times..

 Chapter 177 - Opening the Shop

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng once again felt the terror of being a passive expert.


    He didn¡¯t need to waste much energy thanks to this passive skill. He could refine a big batch of Rejuvenation Pills.


    Even when he was lucky, the success rate exceeded 15%.


    Zhou Feng used up all the raw materials in one go.


    After refining all the medicinal materials into Rejuvenation Pills, he began to count how many Rejuvenation Pills he had.


    There were a total of 1,000!


    Just the medicinal gourd alone contained more than ten, and all of them were Rejuvenation Pills.


    And the cost was probably only a few hundred Spirit Stones?


    After all, many of these raw materials were already in Zhou Feng¡¯s storage ring.


    In any case, the cost was very low, and this didn¡¯t include the cost of purchasing the raw materials himself.


    If he entrusted some cultivators to collect the raw materials for the Rejuvenation Pill, the cost should be even lower.


    The market price outside was about 15 Spirit Stones for a Rejuvenation Pill!


    Zhou Feng was not very clear either. If he sold it for 14 Spirit Stones, there should be many people who would buy it.


    In this way, 1,000 Rejuvenation Pills would cost more than 10,000 Spirit Stones, and the cost would only be a few hundred Spirit Stones.


    Damn! This was too profitable!


    In simple terms, Zhou Feng felt that this was even more profitable than refining Spirit Accumulation Pills.


    Zhou Feng pondered for a moment. As long as he refined pills every day, he would be able to obtain sufficient Spirit Stones.


    Moreover, refining pills was only a means to earn Spirit Stones. He wouldn¡¯t waste too much time on improving his pill refinement skills.


    This meant that he did not need to expend many resources to improve himself like other Pill Masters.


    In any case, it was enough at the current stage. Continuing to waste time on pill refinement was not worth Zhou Feng¡¯s time.


    Firstly, his talent in pill refinement was not very good. Secondly, he did not have a Master to teach him.


    If he wasted too much energy on the path of pill refinement, then it was very likely that he would fall behind on the path of cultivation.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng¡¯s talent in cultivation wasn¡¯t outstanding. He had relied entirely on all sorts of passive skills to reach this level.


    As such, he couldn¡¯t waste his energy on anything else.


    ¡°It only took two hours?¡±


    This pill refinement task had ended, and Zhou Feng was preparing to begin his daily cultivation.


    Ever since he had started cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, he had been studying it every day, striving to condense his first drop of Human Emperor Blood.


    This was because after condensing the Human Emperor Blood, it would mean that Zhou Feng had officially stepped into the Purple Mansion realm.


    Being able to unlock one¡¯s innate divine ability was a turning point in all cultivation paths.


    The quality of one¡¯s innate divine ability, to a large extent, determined their potential in the future.


    And the Purple Mansion realm mainly cultivated this nascent soul and innate divine ability.


    A large amount of Spiritual Qi was forcibly absorbed into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The Blood Qi within his body began to revolve.


    Zhou Feng had just started cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture when his body began to collapse, with all sorts of minor injuries appearing one after another.


    In addition, his entire body¡¯s Blood Qi and soul power had been severely depleted.


    Zhou Feng felt that the process of cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture was constantly being drained and then recovering, repeating over and over again.


    As for any changes in cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, his feelings were not particularly obvious.


    The only slight change was that his physical body was getting stronger and stronger, while his energy was getting more and more abundant.


    Even if he did not sleep for a day, it did not have the slightest effect.


    Also, the Spiritual Qi in his body was fading and slowly fusing into his physical body.


    In the beginning, when Zhou Feng felt that his Spiritual Qi was getting less and less, he was shocked.


    Spiritual Qi was the source and driving force of dao arts, and they would be useless without it.


    But later, he found that the Spiritual Qi did not really disappear but merged into his body.


    His Spiritual Qi could burst out with just a slight movement.


    Obviously, the cultivation path of the Human Emperor Scripture was different from that of the current world.


    But now, Zhou Feng had no choice. He had to cultivate even if he did not want to cultivate.


    ¡®I can¡¯t hold on any longer!¡¯


    Just as his body was about to reach its limit, Zhou Feng stopped.


    His body was now riddled with injuries. If he took a look inside his body, he wouldn¡¯t be able to recover.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was in a mess. If it were anyone else, they would have to lie down for at least a few months.


    However, after Zhou Feng stopped cultivating, a large amount of Blood Qi began to be consumed.


    The glaring injuries were recovering at speed visible to the naked eye.


    Zhou Feng was completely used to this.


    If he didn¡¯t have the passive Tenacious Heart, cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture would be no different than committing suicide.


    Zhou Feng picked up the medicinal gourd that he had just redeemed and immediately gulped down a few mouthfuls of medicinal liquid to replenish his Blood Qi.


    ¡°Old Skin seems to have been triggered again! This Human Emperor Scripture and Old Skin¡¯s passive are a perfect match!¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at the skill panel and found that the passive Old Skin had been triggered.


    He had always thought that Old Skin had a limit, but he was now aware that it had not reached its limit yet.


    It was just that his injuries had not been serious enough before, so he had not triggered it.


    And every time he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, Zhou Feng would be able to injure himself all over.


    After he finished cultivating, his passive Tenacious Heart allowed all these injuries to recover.


    In the end, Old Skin¡¯s passive effect was successfully triggered, increasing his defense by a little.


    This formed a perfect cycle.


    Zhou Feng did not know how terrifying his physical body was, but it was definitely several times stronger than before.


    It would become a path for his physical body to attain the Dao the more he cultivated.


    In fact, he did not like the path of attaining the Dao with his physical body.


    This was because the difficulty of attaining the Dao with his physical body was too high, and Zhou Feng did not think his aptitude was that high.


    This Human Emperor Scripture was obviously a method of attaining the Dao with his physical body, but the legendary Human Emperor had created it under different factors.


    If he did not cheat, he might not have chosen to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture for the rest of his life.


    But it was useless to say anything now. He could only walk one path to the end.


    ¡­


    At dawn, Qian Shang and Qian Qianqian brought Zhou Feng to the shop that they had bought in advance.


    The shop¡¯s location wasn¡¯t bad, and the layout was the kind that Zhou Feng liked.


    It had to be said that sometimes it was quite good to have a few subordinates. At the very least, he didn¡¯t have to deal with some trivial matters himself.


    Zhou Feng did not bother with fancy ceremonies and announced the shop¡¯s opening.


    It didn¡¯t have a name, only a large wooden sign with the words: ¡°Numerous Rejuvenation Pills are being sold! 1 pill for 13 Spirit Stones!¡±


    Qian Shang had already investigated and found the market price of Rejuvenation Pills was around 15 Spirit Stones.


    Some shops sold them at a higher price because of their better quality.


    Those with lower quality sold it at a lower price.


    However, the price was usually not lower than 15 Spirit Stones per pill.


    With this price as a reference, he had lowered the price by 2 Spirit Stones. For some low-level cultivators, this was still very tempting.


    In addition to this price, Zhou Feng called Qian Shang to take charge of the shop.


    As for himself, he stayed behind and continued to cultivate.


    He had come here to keep an eye on things to avoid any accidents on the first day of opening the shop. After that, he might come here once in a while..

 Chapter 178 - Earning 80,000 Spirit Stones in a Day

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    [Chapter 176 was replaced, sorry for the mix-up~]


    ¡°What is this person doing? Is there anything unusual?¡±


    Wang Shu had already entered closed-door cultivation, so the other members of the Wang Clan paid close attention to Zhou Feng¡¯s movements.


    After all, they were afraid that Zhou Feng would use some strange method.


    The battle three days later would affect the qualifications to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    A vagabond cultivator like Zhou Feng obviously wouldn¡¯t let go of this opportunity to make a great leap.


    ¡°There¡¯s nothing unusual about it! But this person opened a pill shop! It specializes in selling Rejuvenation Pills!¡±


    ¡°Pill shop? Rejuvenation Pills?¡±


    When the Wang Clan head heard this, they were momentarily stunned.


    Why did he suddenly start selling pills? Moreover, it was a low-grade pill like the Rejuvenation Pill.


    Although the difficulty of refining this kind of pill was relatively low, the market was relatively large.


    However, there were basically not many Pill Masters who refined this kind of pill.


    This was because compared to other Grade-1 pills, the difficulty of the Rejuvenation Pill was too low, and it was very difficult to improve the pill refinement skills.


    For most aspiring Pill Masters, the most important thing was to strive for a higher level of pill refinement skills.


    A Class 1 Pill Master was merely to be looked up to.


    If it were a Class 2 Pill Master, even some large clans would be courteous and even be willing to provide for a Class 2 Pill Master.


    A Class 3 Pill Master¡¯s status would be welcomed even by the people of the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    Therefore, most Pill Masters would not only refine one type of pill.


    Instead, they would try to refine all kinds of high-difficulty pills in order to raise their pill refinement level.


    This caused the demand for Rejuvenation Pills to be in short supply.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! And the business is very good! The initial estimate is that they have already sold a few hundred Rejuvenation Pills!¡±


    ¡°So many? Isn¡¯t this person a vagabond cultivator? How did he refine so many Rejuvenation Pills?¡±


    Although the Wang Clan Leader didn¡¯t know what Zhou Feng was doing, he heaved a sigh of relief.


    As long as Zhou Feng didn¡¯t do anything, the Wang Clan would definitely win under such circumstances.


    As for Zhou Feng wanting to sell the pills, they could just let him do it.


    ¡­


    ¡°Really? One pill only costs 13 Spirit Stones?¡±


    ¡°Of course it¡¯s true! And many people are fighting over it! If we¡¯re too late, I¡¯m afraid they¡¯ll sell them all!¡±


    ¡°Then we have to hurry!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s shop was crowded with people as many cultivators came to buy Rejuvenation Pills.


    At the same time, his shop also received a lot of medicinal ingredients in exchange for Rejuvenation Pills.


    The stock that Zhou Feng had refined before was almost emptied in an instant.


    This forced him to start refining pills again.


    Anyway, refining Rejuvenation Pills was not difficult for him. At most, he could just eat them to ensure his safety.


    Moreover, because he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, his energy was extremely vigorous. Refining a few batches of Rejuvenation Pills would not consume much energy.


    Now, Zhou Feng would directly earn a few thousand Spirit Stones for every batch of Rejuvenation Pills.


    This speed of earning Spirit Stones was already terrifying compared to most vagabond cultivators.


    Other vagabond cultivators would have to go to the wild and fight to the death with demonic beasts to obtain Spirit Stones.


    It was already considered good enough to earn dozens of Spirit Stones on the last day.


    Most of the vagabond cultivators only earned a few Spirit Stones a day, and they also had to take the risk of getting injured.


    Then, excluding the Spirit Stones needed for fixed cultivation, those vagabond cultivators did not save many Spirit Stones.


    Everyone kept saying that vagabond cultivators had it tough because there were too few ways to earn Spirit Stones.


    Such poor vagabond cultivators naturally had no chance of winning when compared to those cultivators from large clans.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s life was extremely comfortable compared to these poor wandering cultivators.


    Someone from the Tri-Gu Sect had handed him a treasury full of Spirit Stones and items. In Heavenly Star City, he could earn several thousand Spirit Stones a day by relying on his pill refinement skills.


    Although the Rejuvenation Pill didn¡¯t earn enough compared to the Spirit Accumulation Pill, refining the Spirit Accumulation Pill was too tiring. The ingredients were troublesome to handle as well.


    They were completely unlike the Rejuvenation Pills, where one could easily refine one batch.


    Zhou Feng felt that he could even multitask and refine two batches of Rejuvenation Pills.


    An idea suddenly popped up in his mind. ¡®I wonder if simultaneously refining two batches of Rejuvenation Pills can trigger Skill Proficiency twice.¡¯


    If Skill Proficiency could be triggered twice, wouldn¡¯t the efficiency be doubled?


    If it were possible, then Zhou Feng would only need to refine for a few hours per day. He could guarantee the quantity of Rejuvenation Pills.


    It shouldn¡¯t be a problem with the current situation to earn tens of thousands of Spirit Stones a day.


    Tens of thousands of Spirit Stones a day wouldn¡¯t affect Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation at the same time.


    This seemed pretty good!


    Just as Zhou Feng was thinking about his future, Qian Shang and his daughter, who were standing in front of the shop, were already extremely busy.


    There were too many people, and they were a little short-handed.


    Most importantly, since there were too many people, some people were bound to break the rules when considering Qian Shang¡¯s cultivation.


    Since this shop was able to sell so many Rejuvenation Pills, there was definitely a Pill Master behind it.


    However, this didn¡¯t mean there was someone in the shop who could hold the fort. Thus, many people started to get ideas.


    A person was looking around, ready to sneak into the crowd and snatch the Rejuvenation Pills from the counter.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Suddenly, Big Yellow barked.


    At present, Big Yellow was no longer the little puppy from before.


    Zhou Feng often fed Big Yellow Spirit Stones, as well as Spirit Enlightening Pills he had especially refined.


    As a result, Big Yellow grew faster and faster day by day, and now it looked like an adolescent dog.


    Big Yellow had instantly discovered the person who wanted to snatch the pills; thus, the bark.


    As a Mountain Spirit Hound, Big Yellow was extremely sensitive to the changes in the surrounding environment and very sensitive to good and malicious intentions.


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    After hearing Big Yellow¡¯s bark, Zhou Feng immediately stopped what he was doing, and his aura burst out.


    Everyone in the shop was frightened. This aura was like an emperor looking down on them from high up in the sky.


    This aura suppressed even some Soul Altar cultivators. They didn¡¯t even have the right to move their bodies.


    ¡°Everyone, line up! Otherwise, no one will be able to buy Rejuvenation Pills!


    ¡°Those who have ulterior motives, I hope you can consider the consequences!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm words entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    The originally chaotic shop instantly became orderly after Zhou Feng intimidated them.


    According to the rules, everyone began to line up and buy the Rejuvenation Pills.


    ¡®Is this Young Master¡¯s cultivation?¡¯


    Qian Shang once again experienced Zhou Feng¡¯s might. He felt as if a mountain was pressing down his entire body due to Zhou Feng¡¯s imposing aura.


    After Zhou Feng intimidated everyone, the shop continued selling Rejuvenation Pills as usual until their stock was cleared!


    There weren¡¯t even any raw materials left. Zhou Feng could only wait for the raw materials to be stocked up tomorrow before he could continue refining.


    Zhou Feng was the first to announce that he was closing, and then he began to count today¡¯s sales.


    80,000!


    Other than the cost, he had earned 80,000 Spirit Stones in one day!


    This number was really exaggerated. Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t wasted much of his time to earn this amount.


    As expected, refining pills was really f*cking profitable.


    Qian Shang¡¯s face turned red.. He had been in business for so long, but he had never earned so many Spirit Stones!

 Chapter 179 - Demon-Devouring Gu: From Waste to Profit

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    No one had ever sold Rejuvenation Pills in large quantities, and the price was so low, so all the low-level cultivators in Heavenly Star City were attracted to Zhou Feng¡¯s small shop.


    Such a large flow of people also made it easier for Zhou Feng¡¯s small shop to buy raw materials.


    Gathering medicinal ingredients in the wild, killing demonic beasts, and collecting materials were the daily activities of many low-level cultivators.


    For these cultivators, as long as the price was right, they would sell to whoever they wanted.


    Thus, the ingredients needed to refine the Rejuvenation Pill were received in an instant.


    In order to better deal with these medicinal herbs, Zhou Feng also taught Qian Qianqian some ways to pick them.


    After all, this was quite a tedious task and a waste of time.


    Zhou Feng found it beneath him to do it, so he could only hand it over to Qian Qianqian.


    Although Qian Qianqian was blind, her perception was exceptionally outstanding.


    And it could be said that she was too outstanding. Even without her eyes, her actions were actually like an ordinary person¡¯s.


    ¡®This kind of perception¡­ She should be able to learn pill refinement!¡¯


    Zhou Feng recalled that perception was the important factor if one wanted to learn how to refine pills!


    If one¡¯s perception were strong enough, then pill refinement would become easy to learn.


    Perhaps he could teach Qian Qianqian some pill refinement skills?


    After that, he wouldn¡¯t need to refine the Rejuvenation Pill himself. Qian Qianqian would help him refine it.


    No matter how easy it was to refine the Rejuvenation Pill, he would get sick of it if he refined it daily.


    Zhou Feng pondered for a moment before asking Qian Qianqian, ¡°Little Qian! Do you want to learn pill refining skills?¡±


    Qian Qianqian, who was sorting out the herbs, was stunned when she heard Zhou Feng¡¯s words.


    Pill refinement? She definitely wanted to learn it.


    Becoming a Pill Master should be the most desired thing for most people who cultivated.


    Even the worst Class 1 Pill Masters could be considered to have a skill.


    ¡°Can I?¡±


    Qian Qianqian was a little uncertain about Zhou Feng¡¯s intentions, and her tone was extremely careful.


    This was because not everyone was qualified to touch the inheritance of a Pill Master.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. Let¡¯s see if you have the aptitude first.¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t beat around the bush at all.


    It was just a mere pill refining technique, and he was only teaching some basic pill refinement knowledge about the Rejuvenation Pill.


    Relying on such a little pill refining foundation, even if Qian Qianqian¡¯s aptitude were heaven-defying, she wouldn¡¯t be able to do anything.


    Moreover, he treated Qian Qianqian like his little sister now.


    If her pill refinement talent were really good, then Zhou Feng would not lose out.


    No matter what, having a Pill Master as a little sister was a profit.


    Still, Zhou Feng was not that familiar with Qian Qianqian, so he needed to take necessary measures.


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng took out the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    ¡°This is the Demon-Devouring Gu. You will be nourishing it from now on.¡±


    Ever since Zhou Feng had started cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, the Demon-Devouring Gu did not dare to reside in his body.


    Every time the Demon-Devouring Gu wanted to enter Zhou Feng¡¯s body as usual, it would immediately jump out due to the scorching hot Blood Qi.


    However, the Demon-Devouring Gu was Zhou Feng¡¯s Vital Gu, causing it to be unable to cut off the connection with him. It could only rely on Zhou Feng to give it some Blood Qi to maintain itself.


    At present, the Demon-Devouring Gu could be considered as one of his external gu worms.


    Coincidentally, the Demon-Devouring Gu could be given to Qian Qianqian for self-protection. At the same time, it could be used to prevent accidents.


    If Qian Qianqian did anything unreasonable, the Demon-Devouring Gu would immediately devour her.


    Furthermore, the Demon-Devouring Gu could also help Qian Qianqian cultivate.


    At the very least, it had the ability to purify Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    Qian Qianqian was also a cultivator, but her cultivation aptitude was too low. She was only at the 5th Layer of Body Tempering realm.


    It shouldn¡¯t be a big problem for her to break through to the Qi Gathering realm with the Demon-Devouring Gu. This should be a matter of greater benefit than harm to Qian Qianqian.


    ¡°How is it? Now the choice is in your hands!¡±


    Zhou Feng held the dormant Demon-Devouring Gu and told Qian Qianqian about the pros and cons of the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    ¡°I am willing!¡±


    As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Qianqian gave a firm answer.


    There was no hesitation in her words, nor was there the slightest bit of worry.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s conditions were already generous enough for Qian Qianqian. This was a great thing for her.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu entering Qian Qian¡¯s body had only benefits and no disadvantages.


    As long as she didn¡¯t betray Zhou Feng, there were no disadvantages.


    Since the father and daughter were in Heavenly Star City now, they were also relying on Zhou Feng to survive.


    The restrictions of the Demon-Devouring Gu were not much.


    On the contrary, Qian Qianqian could not only become a Pill Master, but her cultivation could also increase with the Demon-Devouring Gu. If she broke through to the Qi Gathering realm, she might be able to get rid of her weak body.


    Moreover, the Demon-Devouring Gu could ensure her safety.


    Finally, Qian Qianqian and her father could be considered to have completely become Zhou Feng¡¯s people with this Demon-Devouring Gu. The relationship between the two parties would deepen.


    There was no need to worry about Zhou Feng giving up on them later.


    Given the many benefits, Qian Qianqian did not even need to think about that one disadvantage and directly agreed.


    ¡°Good! Find time to let your father read these books to you.¡±


    Zhou Feng ordered the Demon-Devouring Gu to parasitize Qian Qianqian¡¯s body, then took out a few books with the basics of pill refinement.


    Qian Qianqian only felt a slight tinge of pain in her arm as something entered her body.


    The moment the Demon-Devouring Gu entered Qian Qianqian¡¯s body, it began to move, crazily devouring her Blood Qi.


    Such a violent absorption caused Qian Qianqian¡¯s face to turn pale.


    Qian Qianqian¡¯s body could be said to be weak compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s powerful body. It could not withstand the torment of the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    Zhou Feng frowned and controlled the Demon-Devouring Gu to reverse-feed.


    Qian Qianqian, who was about to collapse, finally stood firm.


    ¡°Supporting the Demon-Devouring Gu will become your mission from now on. You can use 10% of the store¡¯s dividends as you wish.¡±


    Zhou Feng would not be stingy since he had decided to nurture an underling. He gave 10% of the store¡¯s profits to Qian Qianqian, letting her take care of the Gu properly.


    Otherwise, she would not even be able to support the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    Of course, if Qian Qianqian¡¯s profits weren¡¯t enough to satisfy him in the future, Zhou Feng could take back the 10% profits at any time.


    After that, he gave some instructions. Qian Qianqian silently nodded throughout the whole process and agreed to all of them.


    Zhou Feng left and entered closed-door cultivation.


    At this time, Qian Shang finally finished all his work and walked to his daughter in high spirits.


    ¡°My daughter! This business is too good! Father just received a batch of medicinal herbs! Hurry up and deal with them!¡±


    ¡°Father!¡±


    Qian Qianqian recounted everything to the high-spirited Qian Shang.


    ¡°What! This¡­¡±


    Qian Shang¡¯s first reaction was worry upon hearing that a Gu had entered his daughter¡¯s body.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry! It¡¯s fine! Don¡¯t you trust my intuition?¡±


    Qian Qianqian seemed to have expected this kind of reaction, so she calmed her father¡¯s mood very calmly..

 Chapter 180 - Human Emperor in the Making

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Qian Qianqian consoled Qian Shang¡­


    Soon, the day of the battle between Wang Shu and Zhou Feng arrived.


    Zhou Feng originally wanted to use Spirit Stones to draw a passive skill.


    But after looking at the progress bar, he decided to give up. He had just accumulated some Spirit Stones and didn¡¯t want to use them up so quickly.


    It was necessary to have a certain amount of Spirit Stones.


    Not to mention he had to attend the Heavenly Star Gathering. He should be able to find out about the Malevolent Earth Qi there.


    It was better to leave some Spirit Stones for a rainy day.


    As for Wang Shu, he felt that defeating this person would be a piece of cake.


    As long as Wang Shu didn¡¯t break through to the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng felt that he would definitely win.


    It was worth mentioning that because Zhou Feng was cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, the Purple Jade Bell that had always been in his Soul Altar had undergone a new change.


    The Purple Jade Bell now had a slight golden thread. It seemed even more majestic and grand as if an emperor had used it.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know whether this change was good or bad.


    ¡®I should go first! The earlier I fight, the earlier I can return and cultivate!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that he had already grasped the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s secret. His physical body was already able to withstand the normal Spiritual Qi washing over him.


    However, in comparison, the medicinal liquid in the medicinal gourd was mostly consumed.


    He planned to first go to the Life-Death Arena to fight and then go to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion to buy some medicinal herbs to replenish the medicinal liquid in the medicinal gourd.


    ¡­


    At present, many people had gathered at the Life-Death Arena.


    Thanks to the fanning of the flames behind the Wang Clan, many people now knew that the Li Clan was holding a martial competition to select a son-in-law in the Life-Death Arena today.


    The people participating were the heir of the Wang Clan, Wang Shu, and the vagabond cultivator genius, Zhou Feng, who had been very popular in recent days.


    After a few days of fermenting, the matter had attracted many people.


    As one of the main characters, Li Rong had also disguised herself and come to the Life-Death Arena today.


    Although there was a thin veil on her face, it still could not conceal Li Rong¡¯s temperament and good figure.


    Moreover, Li Rong seemed to have dressed up today. Her muslin dress was slightly tight, revealing her hot figure.


    Her appearance attracted the attention of countless people.


    However, everyone only took a glance at her and did not dare to continue looking.


    This was because Li guards were around Li Rong. Even Li Manya was accompanying her.


    Compared to Li Rong, Li Manya did not wear a veil. Her graceful and luxurious face was directly exposed. Coupled with her alluring figure, every step she took caused her mountain peaks to tremble slightly.


    In an instant, it caused some people to bend their backs slightly.


    However, the people present did not dare to look directly at Li Manya.


    One had to know that Li Manya was a legendary Divine Ability expert. If she were unhappy, she would be able to squash everyone with a single finger.


    Li Rong and Li Manya¡¯s appearance made everyone believe that the Li Clan was indeed choosing a husband through this battle.


    ¡°It¡¯s actually true! If that¡¯s the case, wouldn¡¯t the husband of the noble daughter of the Li Clan be born between these two people?¡±


    ¡°I won¡¯t say anything more about the young master of the Wang Clan! I just want to ask where exactly Zhou Feng came from!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Why have so many people been crazily boasting about a vagabond cultivator these past few days?¡±


    ¡°Moreover, when I think that a vagabond cultivator actually has the chance to take a beauty home, I can¡¯t suppress my anger!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As the onlookers caught a glimpse of Li Rong¡¯s stunning figure, many people felt indignant.


    Why was it not their turn to have such an opportunity? Instead, it was given to an unknown vagabond cultivator?


    It was said that although the noble daughter of the Li Clan had a graceful figure, she was relatively young. Such a top-grade beauty could actually benefit a vagabond cultivator.


    Most of the onlookers had been taking jabs at Zhou Feng¡¯s identity as a vagabond cultivator, chattering non-stop.


    There was nothing they could do. The identity of a vagabond cultivator was really inferior in the eyes of many cultivators.


    In addition to Li Rong and Li Manya, many influential people had come to watch the show.


    The top-grade profligate Bai Lie also appeared here, followed by some disciples of big clans in Heavenly Star City.


    Even the City Lord¡¯s manor sent people to watch this battle.


    This time, Zhou Feng did not come last. Instead, he came to the Life-Death Arena early. The sun had yet to rise to its highest point.


    Zhou Feng had brought along Big Yellow.


    Big Yellow, which was getting bigger by the day, also became clingier and clingier.


    Previously, Zhou Feng would not bring Big Yellow around because it was too small.


    Big Yellow had now grown to the height of a calf, and it crazily pestered him to bring it along.


    There was no other way!


    In the end, Zhou Feng could only bring Big Yellow along to the Life-Death Arena.


    Everyone finally saw this Zhou Feng, who others had crazily been boosting his prestige the past few days.


    As his mastery of the Human Emperor Scripture improved day by day, Zhou Feng would become more good-looking.


    A pair of cold stars shot out of his eyes, and his eyebrows were like swords, exuding a heroic spirit. It was just a simple walking posture.


    In the eyes of others, he looked like a dragon walking like a tiger, with an aura that could swallow mountains and rivers.


    Probably when Zhou Feng cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture to the great completion, he might really become the legendary Human Emperor.


    Cultivation techniques also had a huge impact on the temperament of cultivators. Not to mention that Zhou Feng himself had a passive skill that added charm.


    His appearance immediately attracted everyone¡¯s attention.


    Next to Zhou Feng, Big Yellow seemed to sense that the atmosphere was not right. Its face instantly became serious, and its gaze turned sharp.


    Although its size was smaller, it seemed like a royal hound that accompanied the Human Emperor on his journey. It was not angry but powerful.


    ¡°This¡­ This is Zhou Feng?¡±


    ¡°Is he really a vagabond cultivator!? Why do I feel that this person is a prince of an empire in the Eastern Land?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! But now I finally understand why so many people have been bragging about a vagabond cultivator these past few days!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance shocked everyone.


    The notion that Zhou Feng was a shabby vagabond cultivator was reversed. It seemed a bit of a pity for such a talented person to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    This was the thought crossing many onlookers¡¯ minds.


    However, this was only their first impression. If Zhou Feng were defeated in the ensuing battle, then he would still be a shabby vagabond cultivator.


    After all, strength was the measure of everything.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s ears turned red as she glanced at Zhou Feng, and she didn¡¯t dare to look at him again.


    This was completely different from when she had first met Zhou Feng.


    Li Rong only felt that her face was on fire now. Her heart and mind were in a mess.


    Could this be love at first sight?


    ¡°The change is actually so great!? What kind of cultivation technique does he cultivate?¡±


    Although Li Manya was also surprised by Zhou Feng¡¯s change, she was experienced and shrewd. Thus, she was not entirely at a loss like Li Rong.


    She immediately discovered that the big change in Zhou Feng¡¯s temperament was very likely due to some kind of top-notch technique..

 Chapter 181 - Grand Entrance

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Some profound cultivation techniques involved the operation of some laws of nature.


    Therefore, the more one cultivated, the more affected one would be.


    It was very normal for a person¡¯s temperament to change.


    For example, some deviant and crazy cultivation techniques could easily make a person fall into a crazy state.


    It was normal for a person¡¯s temperament to become gloomy when cultivating this kind of cultivation technique. Even more serious, it could even change a person¡¯s perception.


    More serious was that some cultivation techniques had a lot of secret terms and terminology.


    Thus, some profound cultivation techniques were actually very dangerous.


    Without the guidance of a Master step by step, it was extremely easy for a person to deviate.


    This was also a big disadvantage of vagabond cultivators. They could only rely on themselves to explore without a guide on the path of cultivation.


    Fortunately, the Human Emperor Scripture that Zhou Feng cultivated was created so that every human could cultivate it.


    There weren¡¯t so many secret messages and twists and turns in it. As long as they followed the steps, they could form the Human Emperor Body step by step.


    ¡®He¡¯s not here yet?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked around, but he didn¡¯t see Wang Shu.


    Since that was the case, he wouldn¡¯t stand in the arena like a fool. As such, he found a shady place to cool down.


    Then, under everyone¡¯s watchful eyes, Zhou Feng took a small bench out of his storage ring.


    He found a tree shade and sat on the small bench, waiting for Wang Shu to arrive.


    Big Yellow was also very obedient, directly lying at his feet.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Where¡¯s Wang Shu?¡±


    ¡°It can¡¯t be that he doesn¡¯t dare to come! I heard that this Wang Shu is a good-for-nothing, and he hasn¡¯t even had a few official fights!¡±


    ¡°What? Doesn¡¯t this mean that Zhou Feng will definitely win this duel!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but no matter what, Wang Shu is still a member of the Wang Clan. Although the Wang Clan has declined, they still have some foundation!¡±


    Wang Shu hadn¡¯t arrived yet, so some of the people who had come to watch the show had unhappy expressions on their faces.


    This Wang Shu was really ostentatious. He actually made so many people wait for him.


    In reality, Wang Shu could afford to be late. He was at a critical juncture, a step away from breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Although the Wang Clan had fallen from being a top clan in Heavenly Star City to being a second-rate clan, their former enemies didn¡¯t dare to lay a hand on them. A large part of the reason was that the Wang Clan possessed a thousand-year-old ancient medicine.


    Moreover, this thousand-year-old ancient medicine had even nurtured a spirit.


    Every 20 years, it would produce ancient medicine essence, which could help a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Generally speaking, as long as one¡¯s aptitude wasn¡¯t particularly bad, with the assistance of this ancient medicine essence, one would be able to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    However, there was a flaw in this breakthrough. Relying on the ancient medicine essence to condense one¡¯s nascent soul wouldn¡¯t help one unlock their innate divine ability.


    In order to unlock one¡¯s innate divine ability, one had to rely on their hard work.


    This meant the person who relied on the essence of the ancient medicine to break through to the Purple Mansion realm was far inferior to the other normal Purple Mansion cultivators.


    One could not be compared to cultivators of the same level without innate divine abilities.


    One could only bully Soul Altar cultivators.


    For example, the other top clans also had similar things to the Wang Clan¡¯s thousand-year-old ancient medicine.


    This was their foundation. They could maintain a clan and not suddenly decline. They could still survive this generation and look forward to the rise of the next generation.


    ¡°Aunt! What do you think I should do now?¡±


    Li Rong was in a private room. Her expression was extremely hesitant. It seemed like she wanted to do something, but she did not have the courage.


    Her jade-like fingers kept twirling in circles, causing her dress to wrinkle.


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Li Maya was stunned. It was obvious that she did not know what Li Rong was thinking.


    Then, she looked at the extremely conflicted Li Rong and instantly understood what Li Rong wanted to say.


    ¡°When two people get together, feelings can be slowly nurtured. When he becomes your husband, then slowly nurture feelings!¡±


    Li Manya didn¡¯t know how to answer what Li Rong wanted to ask. After all, if she were to be serious, Li Manya didn¡¯t have any feelings.


    When the clan had wanted to arrange her marriage back then, Li Manya had expressed her resistance.


    Then, she broke through to the Purple Mansion realm in one go, causing the clan to step back temporarily.


    In the end, after breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, the clan stopped pestering Li Manya.


    This was because the clan could no longer restrict a Divine Ability cultivator.


    If Li Rong wanted to ask Li Manya for help on matters of the heart, Li Manya really didn¡¯t have anything to teach.


    As for the issue of Li Rong and Zhou Feng not having any feelings for each other, this was not a problem at all. There were many marriages between large clans in Heavenly Star City, and both men and women did not know each other in the past. After getting married, they would all start developing feelings. Anyway, things like love could be slowly cultivated.


    The most important thing was to get married first. This was the consensus of most people in this world. As long as both parties had a connection, wouldn¡¯t it be easy to develop feelings?


    Humans were the most easily affected by emotions.


    ¡°Ah, this¡­ Alright!¡±


    When Li Rong heard her aunt¡¯s words, she could only let go of the anxiety in her heart.


    However, after a while, Li Rong began to worry about whether Zhou Feng could win this battle.


    ¡°Aunt, do you think that people will discover it if you make a move?¡±


    That¡¯s right! For the sake of Li Rong¡¯s happiness, Li Manya had already planned to help Zhou Feng secretly.


    Because compared to Zhou Feng, Wang Shu was a bad choice. However, the Li Elders did not care so much. After all, the future son-in-law would marry into the Li Clan.


    Their Li Clan would not rely on such a son-in-law.


    Li Rong needed to get married as soon as possible, not giving the other large clans the chance to seek them for a marriage alliance so as to prevent the Li Clan from being dragged into the mess.


    To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for this battle that had caused the entire city to be in turmoil, the Li Elders would have picked Wang Shu to marry Li Rong.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. No one will notice that I¡¯ve secretly done something. Besides, speaking of that brat Zhou Feng, he doesn¡¯t seem to be that simple!


    ¡°It¡¯s still uncertain who will win or lose this duel!¡±


    Li Manya once again observed Zhou Feng.


    That enormous, fiery ball of Blood Qi was like a sun in Li Manya¡¯s perception.


    This sort of power most likely could hold its own against a Purple Mansion cultivator!


    While Li Rong and Aunt Li Manya were secretly discussing, Wang Shu finally appeared. His entrance was much grander than Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    ¡°He¡¯s here! He¡¯s here!¡±


    ¡°Is that a dragon-drawn carriage? What a grand display!¡±


    ¡°There are so many maids scattering flowers?¡±


    ¡°Wait! This aura¡­ Has Wang Shu broken through? That¡¯s impossible!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Wang Shu¡¯s entrance was extremely grand and majestic.


    A Dragon Horse was pulling the carriage decorated with gold-plated exotic beast patterns, and there were precious pearls from the Southern Sea hanging on the four corners.


    There were also some maids sprinkling flower petals around the carriage, and a refreshing fragrance assailed everyone¡¯s nostrils.


    The most eye-catching thing was the unconcealed aura of the carriage¡¯s owner.


    Purple Mansion realm!


    Wang Shu had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm!

 Chapter 182 - The Li Elders Arrival

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This pressure that belonged to a Purple Mansion cultivator astonished all those who had come to watch the show.


    In everyone¡¯s impression, wasn¡¯t Wang Shu just a good-for-nothing Young Master? How did he break through to the Purple Mansion Realm in a single night?


    If it were so easy to break through to the Purple Mansion realm, it wouldn¡¯t be to the extent that so many large clans in Heavenly Star City would be able to recruit a large number of vassals.


    This was because the Purple Mansion realm was the key realm for condensing one¡¯s nascent soul and unlocking one¡¯s innate divine ability.


    If one¡¯s innate divine ability were sufficiently powerful, then it would be equivalent to a fish leaping over the Dragon Gate. It could be said to be a leap to the heavens.


    However, breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm was simply too difficult.


    This was especially true for vagabond cultivators. In order to obtain a way to break through, they must also have the resources to do so.


    Most of them were willing to become the vassals of many large clans, to be driven by these large clans, in exchange for sufficient resources and a way to break through.


    From this, it could be seen that breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm was definitely not a simple matter.


    It was even more impossible for a silkpants like Wang Shu to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    But now, the pressure that belonged to a Purple Mansion cultivator made everyone believe it.


    At that moment, many people¡¯s impression of Wang Shu changed quite a bit.


    This was also one of Wang Shu¡¯s plans. He could be considered to have started to create momentum for himself.


    The luxurious carriage slowly came to a stop, and Wang Shu got out of the carriage fully armed.


    Wang Shu didn¡¯t have his usual profligate air at all. He was wearing dark gold mutated beast armor, with a dark silk belt around his waist and a pair of fiery red flying cloud battle boots under his feet.


    He suddenly exuded a heroic aura like an awe-inspiring general. His eyes were slightly slanted, and he looked as if he was looking down on everyone present.


    If it were before, everyone would have been shocked by Wang Shu¡¯s appearance.


    After all, the Dragon Horse pulling the carriage was a mutant spirit beast, and it had a trace of true dragon bloodline. It wasn¡¯t something an ordinary person could afford.


    The carriage was so noble that people did not dare to look at it directly.


    These pieces of equipment were left behind by the Wang ancestors when they were rich. The Wang ancestors had even left behind the battle armor on Wang Shu¡¯s body.


    When the battle armor was put together, it could be considered as a Spirit Stone Vein.


    It was called the Gold Suan Ni-Swallowing Battle Armor. Its defense was extremely high, and it could even gather Military Qi and attract starlight to battle.


    Such luxurious equipment was enough to blind most of the people present.


    ¡°Hmoph! Today is the day for me, Wang Shu, to turn the tables! That Zhou Feng is just a stepping stone for me!¡±


    At that moment, Wang Shu¡¯s heart was pounding in excitement, and his tail was almost raised to the sky.


    After pretending to be such a silkpants, he could finally be himself.


    The current Wang Shu had a feeling of enduring humiliation and then shocking everyone.


    However, there was a strange look in everyone¡¯s eyes.


    Especially when they saw Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance earlier.


    Although Zhou Feng did not have so many luxurious pieces of equipment when he appeared, nor were any people accompanying him, only a Mountain Spirit Hound, his heroic aura was engraved in his bones.


    It was as if he was born that way, without the slightest bit of grandiosity.


    But when Wang Shu and Zhou Feng were compared, the difference was obvious.


    There was also the fact that Wang Shu, who was wearing a full set of armor, actually came in a carriage. This was more or less a point deduction.


    The way he looked down upon the entire venue made many people feel disgusted.


    It was completely different from the pride Zhou Feng displayed.


    ¡°Oh? Wang Shu isn¡¯t as annoying as he used to be!¡±


    When Li Rong saw Wang Shu, she wrinkled her nose slightly and gave him a flat evaluation.


    Compared to the nauseating Wang Shu in the past, the current Wang Shu was just not as annoying in Li Rong¡¯s eyes.


    Still, it was completely incomparable to seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s handsome face.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Why does it seem like something¡¯s wrong!¡¯


    Looking at the strange looks in the eyes of the people around him, Wang Shu felt that something was wrong.


    Normally speaking, according to his expectations, everyone would be intimidated by him, and their impression of him would change drastically.


    Even Li Rong was also impressed by his majestic figure.


    However, some details were not worth paying attention to.


    Wang Shu ignored the rest of the details and followed the plan in his heart step by step. He took a deep breath and made his voice louder. ¡°Please welcome the Third Elder to watch the battle!¡±


    ¡°The Third Elder?¡±


    ¡°The Li Clan actually sent an Elder to watch the battle?¡±


    ¡°Could it be that the rumors are true? Is this really a marriage tournament?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As soon as Wang Shu finished speaking, most people were shocked.


    They didn¡¯t expect a Li Elder to come to watch the battle!


    Was the noble daughter of the Li Clan looking for a husband through this battle today?


    To be honest, the Li Elder¡¯s arrival was shocking.


    Unlike Li Manya, the Third Elder was not only in the Divine Ability realm but also needed to deal with a lot of affairs.


    Usually, he wouldn¡¯t appear. If he had free time, he might as well go into seclusion and cultivate for a while.


    ¡°What! The Third Elder is here?¡±


    ¡°What price did Wang Shu pay? He actually allowed the Third Elder to come and watch the battle?¡±


    Li Rong instantly turned pale with fright within the private room.


    Although Li Manya didn¡¯t lose her composure, her expression was somewhat ugly.


    Now that the Third Elder was here, Li Manya couldn¡¯t interfere.


    She couldn¡¯t trick another Divine Ability cultivator.


    In addition, Wang Shu had suddenly broken through to the Purple Mansion realm. This was simply adding insult to injury.


    ¡°I¡­ I¡¯m not really going to marry that b*stard, am I?¡±


    Li Rong could no longer remain calm.


    ¡®Hmph! Now that the Third Elder is here, as long as I win this duel, Li Rong, you won¡¯t be able to escape from my grasp!¡¯


    Wang Shu was pleased with himself.


    Naturally, it was his idea to invite the Third Elder.


    Although it was a heart-wrenching price to pay, it was all worth it. As long as the marriage between him and Li Rong was finalized, any price was worth it.


    Wang Shu, including the Wang Clan, had already gambled on more than half of his net worth.


    And all of this was just to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    If Zhou Feng knew about this, he would definitely be dumbfounded.


    You said that Wang Shu wasted so much energy and resources just to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law. Was It really worth it?


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng had no idea what this confrontation meant.


    For him, the reason for his confrontation with Wang Shu was very simple. It was to get rid of Wang Shu, this hidden danger.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want anyone to keep staring at him from behind.


    ¡®Elder of the Li Clan? Divine Ability realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, turned solemn when he saw the Third Elder flying over from the horizon.


    He hadn¡¯t experienced this suffocating feeling for a long time.


    What puzzled him was why the Li Elder had come to watch the battle between him and Wang Shu.


    Even if the Third Elder was in the Divine Ability realm, he couldn¡¯t play dirty tricks in front of so many people!


    As for Wang Shu, who had already broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t that worried.


    From what he could sense, Wang Shu was not a threat at all.


    ¡®Is he really a Purple Mansion cultivator? Why is he so weak?¡¯

 Chapter 183 - Afraid of You!?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The Third Elder looked like an ordinary old man.


    However, the invisible pressure that Zhou Feng felt was enormous.


    It was as if they were standing under the same sky, and the gravity they felt was completely different.


    To Zhou Feng, who had sharp senses, it was as if countless pieces of iron had been placed on his body.


    As for Wang Shu, although he wasn¡¯t in the Divine Ability realm, logically speaking, the Purple Mansion realm should be able to crush him in terms of cultivation level.


    The Purple Mansion cultivators he had encountered previously also gave Zhou Feng an absolute sense of oppression.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t this too frivolous?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first impression of Wang Shu right now was that he was frivolous.


    This Purple Mansion cultivator seemed to be very unstable as if he had used some sort of method to forcefully break through.


    It didn¡¯t matter what he was thinking.


    At that moment, Wang Shu lightly jumped onto the arena.


    The sun¡¯s golden rays happened to shine down from the sky on Wang Shu¡¯s armor, refracting a dazzling light.


    This further accentuated Wang Shu¡¯s heroic bearing.


    In addition, Wang Shu didn¡¯t conceal his aura at all. It really intimidated quite a few people.


    ¡°This kind of unstable aura¡­ Did he rely on some unorthodox method to forcefully break through? So weak!¡±


    Li Manya could be considered to have seen through Wang Shu¡¯s facade.


    His unstable aura betrayed that he had relied on other methods to forcefully break through.


    Perhaps he hadn¡¯t even unlocked his innate divine ability.


    In that case, it wasn¡¯t like Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have a chance.


    It was just that she didn¡¯t know how strong Zhou Feng was and whether he could surpass his level to challenge this kind of mediocre Purple Mansion cultivator.


    Li Rong¡¯s eyes filled with confidence upon hearing that.


    Zhou Feng looked at the smug Wang Shu and didn¡¯t say anything. He simply put away the small bench.


    Then, he slowly walked onto the arena.


    His entire person appeared carefree and casual. He wasn¡¯t scared by Wang Shu¡¯s Purple Mansion cultivation at all.


    ¡°Oh? Human Emperor Aura? Could this person have cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture? In this world, there¡¯s actually someone who has successfully cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture?¡±


    As an old antique, the Third Elder instantly saw through Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation.


    He did not expect that there was still someone who dared to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture in this day and age. Moreover, it seemed that he had successfully triggered the aura of the Human Emperor. He had mastered the Human Emperor Scripture to the initial stage!


    Unfortunately, the Human Emperor Scripture had already fallen behind this era. It was a pity for such a talent.


    The Third Elder actually did not care who would become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law. In any case, these matters were always managed by the younger generation.


    If he didn¡¯t owe the Wang Clan a favor, he wouldn¡¯t waste his time here.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! I haven¡¯t forgotten how arrogant you were before! Now I want to see if you can still be arrogant!¡±


    No matter how scheming Wang Shu was, he couldn¡¯t help it when looking at the calm Zhou Feng.


    When he had met Zhou Feng previously, he had been in an extremely sorry state.


    He had been frightened by Zhou Feng several times in a row, causing him to lose face continuously.


    Now, he could finally get back at him. This feeling of revenge was simply too wonderful.


    No matter how Wang Shu suppressed the smugness in his heart, it couldn¡¯t help but show on his face.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    In the face of Wang Shu¡¯s harsh words, Zhou Feng did not give any feedback or reaction at all. He was just quietly accumulating his strength.


    To be honest, he had not fought ever since he had switched to cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.


    He did not know whether his strength had increased or decreased¡­


    ¡°Let¡¯s hurry up and start!¡±


    Seeing that Wang Shu still wanted to continue pressuring Zhou Feng, the Third Elder immediately became impatient.


    Wang Shu, who had originally wanted to mock Zhou Feng, immediately shut his mouth.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Wang Shu¡¯s expression changed. His right hand clenched into a fist, and a long spear appeared out of thin air.


    A baleful aura suddenly arose from the battlefield, and the entire arena seemed to have been pulled into a special space.


    Sandstorm! The smell of blood! The sound of horse hooves!


    Although Wang Shu hadn¡¯t unlocked his innate divine ability, he had at least broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    After successfully condensing a nascent soul, once the nascent soul was condensed, it would be able to unleash inconceivable power.


    For example, right now, Wang Shu was mobilizing the power of heaven and earth, changing the surrounding environment.


    ¡°This¡­ This is the special ability of the Purple Mansion realm?¡±


    ¡°After advancing to the Purple Mansion realm, one¡¯s power is no longer as restrained as before. One can affect the world by relying on the nascent soul!¡±


    ¡°This level is already considered small. I heard that the Eldest Young Master of the City Lord¡¯s estate is also in the Purple Mansion realm. Every time he fights, the color of the world changes!¡±


    ¡°I hope Zhou Feng can hold on!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The spectators, who had been watching the show, immediately broke out in cold sweat for Zhou Feng upon seeing this scene.


    This was because the gap between the Soul Altar realm and the Purple Mansion realm was simply too great.


    No one had expected that Wang Shu would be able to directly break through to the Purple Mansion realm at this critical juncture.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s temperament and appearance were superior to Wang Shu¡¯s in everyone¡¯s eyes, strength was the measure of everything. The rest were just additional points.


    In addition to Zhou Feng¡¯s identity as a vagabond cultivator, he had won the favor of many people.


    At present, most of the people watching the battle below hoped that Zhou Feng would be able to survive.


    As for defeating Wang Shu, who was at the Purple Mansion realm? Basically, no one had any hope.


    ¡®Blood-Burning Technique! Spiritual Attachment Art!¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately unleashed his full power.


    He wildly burned the Blood Qi in his body, as well as forcibly devoured the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    Instantly, Zhou Feng¡¯s body exploded with crackling sounds.


    The terrifying Blood Qi was wildly burned, and the surrounding air instantly heated up.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng seemed to have turned into a great sun, and this great sun was like a devil hanging in the sky, full of destructive fluctuations.


    The surrounding illusion was directly shattered.


    ¡°Dang!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not dodge at all and counterattacked with a punch.


    The long spear in Wang Shu¡¯s hand was knocked askew by his punch!


    A deafening sound rang out, and the spectators covered their ears.


    ¡°This!¡±


    The powerful rebound force in his hand filled Wang Shu¡¯s heart with shock.


    ¡®How is this possible! I actually lost in a head-on clash? I must have been too careless!¡¯


    Wang Shu could not accept this result at all. The nascent soul overseeing the Soul Altar hurriedly mobilized the power of heaven and earth.


    The battle armor on his body also unleashed its power.


    The long spear was like a swimming dragon!


    Wang Shu carried the momentum of a torrent and smashed down from above.


    At this time, Zhou Feng felt the momentum of an army charging at him head-on.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    However, he still ignored it and went up to meet it. His right fist hit the tip of the spear, and blood splattered everywhere!


    The Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body were still burning crazily, while threads of golden light were born spontaneously.


    This scene was like the arrival of a great sun, and his whole body was burning and shining in all directions!


    ¡°You¡­ You¡­ You!¡±


    Wang Shu saw how crazy Zhou Feng was, and his entire person turned angry from embarrassment.


    ¡®I¡¯m at the Purple Mansion realm, and you¡¯re only at the Soul Altar realm. What right do you have to suppress me and fight?


    ¡®Do you think that only you know how to fight with your life? I¡¯m wearing a spiritual weapon and armor! Don¡¯t tell me that I¡¯m afraid of you fighting with your life!¡¯

 Chapter 184 - Close to Crushing?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng¡¯s frenzied battle stance did not scare Wang Shu. Instead, it triggered the madness in his heart.


    Because in such a head-on confrontation, Wang Shu had a huge advantage.


    Let¡¯s talk about the battle armor on Wang Shu¡¯s body. This was a top-grade spiritual weapon.


    It was impossible to break through its defensive ability without a spiritual weapon of the same level.


    For Zhou Feng to directly fight with his bare hands and rely on his physical body to break through the defense of this armor?


    That was simply wishful thinking.


    On the contrary, what kind of defensive spiritual artifact did Zhou Feng have? Would a mere physical body be able to withstand the attack of a spiritual artifact?


    The long spear in Wang Shu¡¯s hand was also a spiritual artifact passed down from the Wang ancestors. It was called the Battle Soul Spear.


    A battle soul was sealed within it. When forced into a corner, one could directly release this battle soul to aid in battle.


    Taking another 10,000 steps back, Wang Shu was a Purple Mansion cultivator now. In terms of cultivation, he was firmly on top of Zhou Feng.


    If Wang Shu were to cower with such a huge advantage, then he would truly be a good-for-nothing!


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    When Li Rong saw that the spear had pierced through Zhou Feng¡¯s shoulder, she immediately covered her eyes.


    Such a bloody and brutal scene caused enormous damage to Li Rong.


    Li Manya frowned.


    ¡°What is he planning to do? Why is he using such a fighting method?¡±


    Li Manya could not understand Zhou Feng¡¯s fighting method at all.


    Why did he disregard his body and fight with his life on the line?


    The other party clearly had a huge advantage. Under such circumstances, Zhou Feng should be using his strengths to make up for his weaknesses!


    Not only was Li Manya unable to understand what was going on, but the audience below also could not understand what was going on.


    ¡°This¡­ Is he courting death?¡±


    ¡°Although this will be able to suppress Wang Shu for a while, there will always be a time when he is out of strength. What should he do then?¡±


    ¡°Madman! Is this a madman?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy fighting style might be able to suppress Wang Shu, but it would not last.


    Once Wang Shu was given a chance to catch his breath, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have a chance to turn the tables.


    Wang Shu relied on his battle armor to fight with Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attacks could only make clanging sounds when they landed on the battle armor, but the spear continuously pierced Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng roared, and his golden fist smashed Wang Shu into the arena.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s bright and scarlet blood was actually slightly glowing with a golden light.


    At that moment, everyone realized that although Zhou Feng seemed to be in a very miserable state, there was not much blood in the arena.


    The wounds on Zhou Feng¡¯s body were actually slowly healing? What kind of situation was this?


    ¡°This¡­ This is a breakthrough?¡±


    ¡°His aura is getting stronger? What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was covered in blood, but his aura didn¡¯t weaken at all. Instead, it was slowly getting stronger.


    That¡¯s right! The reason Zhou Feng used this kind of fighting style was not only because he was used to it.


    Another important factor was that in such a high-intensity battle, the cultivation speed of the Human Emperor Scripture was actually slowly increasing.


    The Human Emperor Blood, which was originally extremely difficult to condense, was now slowly condensing!


    This was much faster than the cultivation speed of devouring Spiritual Qi!


    Only then did Zhou Feng learn that the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s cultivation speed could be accelerated under the pressure of battle.


    Of course, the most important factor was still the baleful aura created by Wang Shu. The surrounding baleful aura was swallowed by Zhou Feng and entered his body.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s body was constantly being torn apart, this baleful aura was actually able to speed up the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s cultivation speed.


    This baleful aura was somewhat similar to the legendary Malevolent Earth Qi.


    Hence, he had decided to use Wang Shu to cultivate.


    Moreover, as his injuries became more and more serious, the passive Injury Conversion was also continuously showing its effects.


    ¡°Impossible!¡± Wang Shu, who had been smashed into the arena, spoke in a tone of disbelief.


    A battle soul had been released.


    The surrounding air was filled with an even thicker stench of blood, and the baleful aura was even thicker.


    Once this baleful aura entered one¡¯s body, it would be very easy for the target¡¯s body to collapse. Also, one¡¯s entire person would descend into madness after being corroded by the baleful aura.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng¡¯s furnace-like body assimilated the baleful aura once it entered it.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng was just using his fists! He then smashed Wang Shu, who had just gotten up, onto the ground.


    Along with that, his rigid battle soul was also torn apart!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body¡¯s aura had reached its peak, and traces of divine light started to appear on his body. It was intense and dazzling, and his eyes were flowing with a golden divine glow.


    He just stood there quietly, but he was like a human emperor who held the sun and moon in his hands and was the supreme ruler of the world.


    The Human Emperor Scripture details floated in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, and his body was constantly trembling.


    ¡®I don¡¯t have enough Blood Qi!¡¯


    In the next moment, he felt waves of exhaustion!


    This was a lack of Blood Qi!


    He immediately took out the medicine gourd and crazily poured its content into his mouth.


    ¡°Impossible! I¡¯m at the Purple Mansion realm! There¡¯s no way I¡¯ll lose!¡±


    Wang Shu stood up once more and didn¡¯t seem to have received any serious injuries. It had to be said that the defensive power of Wang Shu¡¯s armor was truly high.


    But now, Wang Shu¡¯s courage had been ruthlessly vanquished!


    ¡°You don¡¯t have any strength left to counterattack, do you? You actually dare to put on an act here!¡±


    Wang Shu, who had regained some of his composure, still could not believe that he suddenly did not have the strength to retaliate at all.


    But it did not matter! Zhou Feng no longer had the strength to fight.


    Looking at Zhou Feng holding the medicine gourd and continuously downing the medicinal liquid, Wang Shu felt that his chances of winning were still very high.


    Hence, he launched another attack.


    A cold light arrived first, and the sharp aura cut through the surrounding air.


    Wang Shu¡¯s attack seemed to be quite imposing, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Wang Shu was no longer as sharp as he had been at the beginning.


    Zhou Feng looked indifferently at Wang Shu, and his body moved slightly to the side.


    He dodged the stab by a hair¡¯s breadth.


    ¡®Truly a mess. He didn¡¯t even use his full strength.¡¯


    Zhou Feng finally understood why Wang Shu gave him such a weak feeling.


    Although Wang Shu was a Purple Mansion cultivator, he couldn¡¯t display Purple Mansion strength.


    He even subconsciously used his Soul Altar to control the strength of the Purple Mansion realm.


    If it weren¡¯t for his luxurious equipment, Zhou Feng might have been able to crush Wang Shu directly.


    Of course, if it were an ordinary Soul Altar cultivator, Wang Shu¡¯s strength would be enough to crush them.


    But the problem was that Zhou Feng was not an ordinary Soul Altar cultivator.


    He hadn¡¯t even used his full arsenal of passive skills.


    ¡°Come on! Let¡¯s fight for another 300 rounds!¡±


    Wang Shu tried his best to gather his aura and continuously attacked him.


    Zhou Feng easily dodged.


    It was daytime now, and the passive Daylight Combat had increased Zhou Feng¡¯s speed by ten points.


    Then, there was the golden passive Battle Instinct and Wang Shu¡¯s inflexible attacks, all of which were predicted by him in advance.


    Zhou Feng was relying on the passive Master Hunter¡¯s perception and looked as if he was teasing a child. No matter how hard Wang Shu tried, he was unable to touch Zhou Feng.


    Regarding this scene in the arena, everyone present looked at each other in dismay.


    ¡°How did it become like this?¡±


    None of the spectators had ever expected to witness such a scene..

 Chapter 185 - On the Verge of Death And Recovering From His Injuries

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®I¡¯m still lacking in pressure¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng used all of his strength in an attempt to condense a drop of Human Emperor Blood, but in the end, he still failed.


    This was because the pressure Wang Shu was giving him was no longer enough.


    It would still be too difficult for him to condense a drop of Human Emperor Blood without the help of the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    Earlier, he had borrowed the pressure Wang Shu was giving him.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have divine assistance as he condensed all the Blood Qi in his body in an attempt to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Unfortunately, he failed in the end. If he wanted to break through to the Purple Mansion realm, he would still need to borrow the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    Another point was that after the crazy pressure on his body just now, Zhou Feng¡¯s body had been severely injured.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was still in battle mode, so his passive Tenacious Heart could not be triggered to heal his injuries.


    ¡°Impossible! Although I did not unlock my innate ability, you are definitely not my match!¡±


    Wang Shu clumsily used the spear in his hand.


    At that moment, his face was filled with disbelief, or perhaps it could be said that he could not accept this fact.


    Wang Shu had already planned everything before the battle.


    As long as he defeated Zhou Feng head-on, then the subsequent plans would be extremely smooth.


    But just as his plans were about to begin, they were immediately foiled.


    A Purple Mansion cultivator was unable to put up any resistance against a Soul Altar cultivator? Who would believe this?


    ¡°Why? Wang Shu is clearly a Purple Mansion cultivator. How could he not be a match for Zhou Feng at all?¡±


    ¡°Is there such a huge difference in strength between the two sides?¡±


    ¡°Although Wang Shu is a Purple Mansion cultivator, he isn¡¯t able to unleash the power of a Purple Mansion cultivator! He¡¯s just a silver spear wax head!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! As expected, a silkpants is a silkpants. He is useless even after breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Some of the more experienced cultivators could already see why this situation had occurred.


    The reason was very simple. Wang Shu was unable to unleash the power of the Purple Mansion realm.


    As for Zhou Feng, he had unleashed a power that far surpassed that of an ordinary Soul Altar cultivator.


    ¡°In other words, Wang Shu isn¡¯t familiar with the Purple Mansion realm at all!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Perhaps if Wang Shu was given some time to familiarize himself with the realm, the result would probably be completely different.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Wang Shu had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, so he didn¡¯t have the time to familiarize himself with it. Thus, he wasn¡¯t able to display strength that belonged to the Purple Mansion realm.


    One had to know that the Purple Mansion realm meant that the nascent soul had already been successfully condensed. Compared to the scattered soul power of the Soul Altar realm, a complete soul would have an even more powerful interference with the world.


    ¡°The Wang Clan has indeed declined. The younger generation is led by this kind of trash! This kid who cultivates the Human Emperor Scripture is rather interesting!¡±


    The Third Elder observed everything that was happening in the arena, and he didn¡¯t feel much in his heart.


    He only sighed with emotion that the Wang Clan, which had been in the limelight for so long, had hit rock bottom.


    If there were no accidents, the Wang Clan would fall to the ranks of a mortal clan.


    As for Zhou Feng, this kid who cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, he was very interested in him.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s battle style, if he didn¡¯t have a top-grade healing pill, he probably wouldn¡¯t live past tomorrow.


    The Third Elder could naturally tell that Zhou Feng¡¯s current injuries were not optimistic.


    Similarly, Li Manya could also tell that Zhou Feng¡¯s current injuries were serious.


    ¡®Crazy? So crazy? Completely not caring about his body?¡¯


    Li Manya was already thinking about whether Zhou Feng was suitable to be Li Rong¡¯s husband.


    Just from the crazy look that Zhou Feng displayed earlier, even if Li Rong had the support of the Li Clan behind her, would she be able to subdue such a person?


    No matter what the others thought, Zhou Feng had already decided to end this battle.


    ¡®My injuries can¡¯t be any more serious now. I¡¯ll just deal with it in one go and slowly recover my HP!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had not been pulling his punches. Other than accumulating his aura, he had not attacked seriously.


    Another important point was to make his injuries even more serious.


    He would put himself into a near-death state to trigger his passive Injury Conversion.


    Injury Conversion was a passive skill that could convert injuries into attack power. The attack power bonus would be terrifying if he were in a near-death state.


    Zhou Feng clenched his fists tightly. He relied on his Battle Instinct to dodge Wang Shu¡¯s attack while condensing all the Blood Qi in his body into a single point.


    His eyes were calm. Although he did not say a word, his body seemed to be nurturing an aura.


    His black hair fluttered in the wind, and his powerful and fierce aura slowly faded away.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? I have goosebumps all over my body!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A few people swallowed their saliva for some reason and felt goosebumps all over their bodies.


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s calm face, his body was like a volcano that could erupt at any time.


    ¡°You want to kill me!? Do you know the consequences of killing me?¡±


    Wang Shu might not be as sharp, but he reacted swiftly when it came to his safety.


    When he realized that the situation was not right, he immediately used the same threatening words.


    ¡°If I die here, the Wang Clan will definitely not let you off!¡±


    Although Wang Shu was wearing a spiritual armor, he was like a cowardly quail. Those few threatening words were his last bit of stubbornness.


    ¡®Damn it! Why didn¡¯t I prepare more things!?¡¯


    Wang Shu¡¯s face was filled with regret. He had been under the impression that he would win against Zhou Feng, so he was only wearing the battle armor and holding the spear.


    In Wang Shu¡¯s mind, his Purple Mansion cultivation and these two spiritual weapons were enough to deal with Zhou Feng.


    He hadn¡¯t brought along anything else at all.


    ¡°How about this! I admit defeat! I¡ª¡±


    Wang Shu retreated while trying to concede, but Zhou Feng moved before he could finish speaking.


    With this movement, his body instantly exploded.


    This was a simple punch, but its power caused everyone present to feel their hearts palpitate.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Wang Shu originally wanted to bargain, but Zhou Feng immediately made his move.


    Before he had the chance to react, Wang Shu was blasted apart by a single punch!


    Violent power flowed through the dark golden armor and continuously poured into Wang Shu¡¯s body.


    Wang Shu¡¯s body was like a casket, filled with minced meat. In the end, his body could not withstand the pressure and was torn apart.


    Blood, flesh, and bone fragments splattered everywhere.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was also covered with pieces of flesh, but Wang Shu¡¯s armor wasn¡¯t damaged at all.


    After landing this explosive punch, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body withered.


    That terrifying injury couldn¡¯t be suppressed at all, and his body was completely torn apart.


    That shocking climax caused many people¡¯s backs to feel a chill.


    Too damn ruthless!


    This was simply courting death.


    Zhou Feng had killed Wang Shu, a Purple Mansion cultivator, not even leaving an intact corpse!


    However, the next scene almost caused everyone¡¯s eyes to pop out of their sockets.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries began to recover rapidly, and his aura also slowly recovered.


    Many people involuntarily wiped their eyes due to this recovery speed, wondering if their eyes were playing tricks on them..

 Chapter 186 - The Tri-Gu Sects Shadow

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The moment Wang Shu died, the passive Tenacious Heart was triggered.


    A large amount of Blood Qi was consumed in Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and then the shocking wound healed.


    This speed was extremely abnormal in the eyes of others.


    Normally, this kind of injury would require a year or two of recuperation.


    Moreover, it was under the condition that there were panaceas and miraculous medicines. However, Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery speed was completely unscientific.


    ¡®Old Skin has been triggered again! Not bad!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed that Old Skin had been triggered again. He immediately picked up the medicinal gourd and poured the medicinal liquid into his mouth.


    This fighting style did not seem bad.


    However, it was not suitable for fighting in the wild or against multiple opponents.


    This was because the passive Tenacious Heart could only be triggered after leaving the battle.


    If he were being chased in the wild, the risk of using this battle style would be too great.


    As for fighting against multiple opponents, there was no need to mention it. He would have no time to heal his injuries.


    Another point was that the use of the passive Tenacious Heart seemed to have been exposed.


    This meant that Zhou Feng had lost one of his trump cards.


    However, to be able to get rid of an enemy, he felt that it was worth it.


    This should also have a great deterrent effect!


    He had directly killed the Young Master of the Wang Clan without the slightest hesitation.


    In the eyes of others, Zhou Feng was a madman.


    In the face of such a madman, the first reaction of most people was to keep a distance from him. If there were no need, they would definitely not come into contact with such a person.


    And this was what Zhou Feng hoped for. He did not want to be disturbed. He just wanted to cultivate alone slowly.


    The best thing was for everyone to avoid him.


    ¡°Ahh! Young Master!¡±


    ¡°Dead¡­ Dead!?¡±


    The Wang servants who were originally watching the battle were almost dumbfounded upon looking at the scattered paste of meat and bones in the arena.


    Wang Shu¡¯s death was a painless one, but not even his corpse was left intact. How could they explain this?


    After hearing the wails, the audience finally realized that Wang Shu had been killed.


    Moreover, he had died so tragically.


    ¡°Is he really dead? That¡¯s the Young Master of the Wang Clan!¡±


    ¡°Even if the Wang Clan is a second-rate clan now, they will definitely not let this matter go!¡±


    ¡°How decisive! However, this person is about to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan. What does a mere Wang Clan mean?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just like Wang Shu, many people didn¡¯t dare to believe that Zhou Feng would dare to kill him.


    After all, Zhou Feng was a vagabond cultivator, while Wang Shu was a disciple of a large clan. It took a lot of courage to kill a disciple of a large clan.


    Many times, even the disciples of large clans wouldn¡¯t really kill each other.


    This was because everyone had to care about their face. Killing a clan heir meant that they wouldn¡¯t rest until one of them was dead.


    If it weren¡¯t necessary, humiliating them would be enough. There was no need to kill them. This could be considered an unspoken rule in Heavenly Star City!


    As for the wild, there weren¡¯t that many unspoken rules.


    Wang Shu had also been under the impression that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t make a move because of this unspoken rule. At most, he would only humiliate him.


    Unfortunately, Wang Shu never imagined that Zhou Feng would be so ruthless.


    Wang Zhu didn¡¯t even have time to regret it before his death.


    ¡®Wang Clan!¡¯


    This scream reminded Zhou Feng that after Wang Shu¡¯s problem was solved, the Wang Clan would also be a problem.


    The Wang Clan would find trouble with him!


    After all, since Wang Shu was dead, the Wang Clan would not let him off.


    However, if one had to ask Zhou Feng if he regretted it, he would answer that he didn¡¯t regret it at all.


    This was because when Zhou Feng ensured that Wang Shu had deliberately been looking for trouble with him, he already had the intention to kill him.


    On the contrary, even if he showed mercy, Wang Shu would not give up on targeting him.


    Similarly, he would use the power of the Wang Clan to target him.


    Now that Wang Shu was dead, although the Wang Clan would look for trouble with Zhou Feng, they would have many considerations.


    For example, if there were a problem with the clan¡¯s survival, the Wang Clan would not risk the disappearance of the entire clan to take revenge on him.


    This way, Zhou Feng would have the opportunity to eliminate the Wang Clan slowly.


    That¡¯s right! After realizing that the Wang Clan was also a huge threat to him, Zhou Feng planned to destroy the Wang Clan.


    His thinking was still direct and straightforward. As long as anyone harbored malicious intentions, then he would eliminate all of them.


    Other than that, Zhou Feng had another purpose.


    That was to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture. He had realized that the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s cultivation speed would increase during battles.


    Hence, the Wang Clan just so happened to be his whetstone.


    ¡°Big Yellow, let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng casually stored the blood-stained battle armor and spear into his storage ring. Then, he called out to Big Yellow to prepare to leave.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow, which had been waiting for the order, immediately barked, jumped onto the arena, and helped Zhou Feng clean up the bloodstains on his body.


    ¡°This kid is really interesting!¡±


    The Third Elder couldn¡¯t help but feel a trace of interest as he observed the calm Zhou Feng.


    However, although he was very interested in Zhou Feng, he didn¡¯t chase after him and say anything.


    In any case, wouldn¡¯t this kid become the son-in-law of his Li Clan?


    There would be plenty of opportunities to meet him in the future.


    ¡°You! You can¡¯t leave! That Gold Suan Ni-Swallowing Battle Armor and the Battle Soul Spear belong to our Wang Clan!¡±


    ¡°Right! Leave those things behind!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When the Wang servants saw Zhou Feng take away the Gold Suan Ni-Swallowing Battle Armor and the Battle Soul Spear, they were a little anxious.


    They forgot what had happened earlier and wanted to stop Zhou Feng. These two items were both top-grade spiritual weapons tools, and they were also one of the few things that the Wang Clan had left.


    They definitely could not lose them here.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    However, there was no need for Zhou Feng to open his mouth. Big Yellow bared its teeth and barked loudly, scaring them away.


    Zhou Feng glanced at the Wang Clan¡¯s people indifferently.


    At that moment, the Wang servants were jolted awake. This f*cking fierce man before them had killed Wang Shu in front of everyone¡¯s eyes.


    Zhou Feng glanced at the cowering Wang servants, not saying anything.


    At that moment, everyone realized that Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had become as full as before the battle.


    In other words, his injuries had all recovered.


    In fact, it was as if he had not battled against Wang Shu at all.


    Even though he had said it many times, he still had to repeat it. The passive Tenacious Heart was truly abnormal.


    ¡°How strange! What kind of technique did this person cultivate? Why did his injuries recover so quickly?¡±


    ¡°This definitely isn¡¯t a vagabond cultivator! A vagabond cultivator can¡¯t have such a technique!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Such temperament! Such a technique, it¡¯s impossible for him to be a vagabond cultivator!¡±


    Watching Zhou Feng¡¯s back as he left, everyone began to discuss openly.


    This was too abnormal! This was truly too abnormal!


    Based on the strength that Zhou Feng displayed, the way he had defeated Wang Shu, whose realm was higher, and the speed at which his injuries recovered after the battle ended, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t look like a vagabond cultivator at all. Instead, he looked like a disciple of a reclusive great sect.


    Was he really not a disciple of a sect or a disciple of a great clan?


    ¡°Zhou Feng?¡±


    Among so many people, a person dressed in black had a faint look of doubt on his face.


    And in this person¡¯s hand was a huge centipede Gu..

 Chapter 187 - Something Big Was Going to Happen

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Is he that Zhou Feng? Why is his aura different?¡¯


    Wei Gang lowered his head while the Flying Heaven Gu in his hand continuously spiraled.


    As an elite Tri-Gu disciple, Wei Gang had heard of Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng had caused a lot of trouble in the Tri-Gu Sect back then, and he had almost annihilated a peak, causing an Elder to be furious.


    Of course, Zhou Feng was most famous in the Tri-Gu Sect for becoming Leng Maner¡¯s husband.


    But later, the Voodoo Cult invaded the Tri-Gu Sect, and Zhou Feng had disappeared.


    It was said that he had defected during the chaos. At that time, the Tri-Gu Sect had been at its weakest.


    Almost none of the Elders had been around, and the Sect Leader was also missing.


    This had allowed Zhou Feng to escape successfully.


    Wei Gang did not expect Zhou Feng to have escaped to Heavenly Star City.


    Moreover, he was doing quite well and was about to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan!


    ¡°Absolutely not wrong! There is still the aura of the Demon-Devouring Gu on his clothes, but I don¡¯t know why there are no traces of the sect¡¯s cultivation technique on his body!¡±


    Wei Gang was certain that this Zhou Feng was the one from the sect.


    Although he did not know how Zhou Feng did it, there was not a single trace of a Gu left on his body.


    Unexpectedly, his clothes were stained with the aura of the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    The Demon-Devouring Gu was Old Demon Gu¡¯s unique Gu, and others could not get their hands on it.


    ¡°Is it with the identity of a lone cultivator? Then it seems that the Li Clan does not know about Zhou Feng¡¯s past¡­¡±


    Wei Gang keenly sensed that there was a profit to be made here.


    Zhou Feng had managed to climb up to Heavenly Star City¡¯s Li Clan, so if Wei Gang made the right move, it would be much easier for the Tri-Gu Sect to rise again.


    ¡°Tracking Gu!¡±


    Wei Gang mixed with the shadows and took out a Gu, the size of an ant.


    He planned to track where Zhou Feng was staying and meet him at night.


    Zhou Feng did not know that there was a Tri-Gu disciple in Heavenly Star City and had even recognized him.


    If the Tri-Gu Sect found out about this, they would not let Zhou Feng off.


    Because no matter what, Zhou Feng was still a Tri-Gu disciple.


    This was not a place one could leave just because they wanted. As long as one had entered the Tri-Gu Sect, they would be a part of it for the rest of their life.


    Now that Zhou Feng was doing so well, the Tri-Gu Sect would definitely not let this opportunity go.


    On the other side, Zhou Feng also felt that something was not right.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Why do I feel a little uneasy? Is someone following me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses allowed him to notice that something was not right.


    Big Yellow was calm. It did not feel that something was not right at all.


    However, Zhou Feng felt as if a needle was pressing against his back.


    This feeling was very uncomfortable, but he couldn¡¯t find the source.


    ¡®Troublesome! It seems that I can¡¯t slack off for this period!¡¯


    A few consecutive events filled Zhou Feng with a sense of urgency once more. He shouldn¡¯t be able to continue his leisurely life like before. Putting aside everything else, he had to break through to the Purple Mansion realm first.


    His Soul Altar cultivation was already somewhat lacking.


    ¡®Malevolent Earth Qi!¡¯


    The key to Zhou Feng¡¯s breakthrough was to find the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    As long as he had the Malevolent Earth Qi to help enhance his body, then he would be able to rely on his passive Tenacious Heart¡¯s insane recovery speed.


    No matter how low Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude was, he should be able to condense the Human Emperor Blood under the repeated enhancement forcefully.


    After that, he would rely on the characteristics of the Human Emperor Blood to help him condense a nascent soul.


    Although the Malevolent Earth Qi was extremely dangerous, it could be used as a material for refining treasures, so it was also an extremely precious resource.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s current connections and resources, he could only place the hope of finding the Malevolent Earth Qi on the Heavenly Star Gathering.


    ¡®Perfect! I can use that set of battle armor and the spear to exchange!¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately planned everything out.


    He would use the battle armor and spear that he had obtained from Wang Shu in exchange for information about the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    Anyway, these items were all hot potatoes. As long as they were still in his hands, the Wang Clan would definitely keep a close eye on him.


    Moreover, after cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, Zhou Feng felt that ordinary spiritual artifacts were already of little help to him.


    Sometimes, they were even worse than a pair of fists. He did not even use the Purple Jade Bell in the previous battle.


    Therefore, these spiritual artifacts were not of much use to him.


    If he could exchange them for the resources he needed, it would not be a loss.


    Zhou Feng quickened his pace with this thought in mind and hurried back to his small shop.


    Zhou Feng had left in a carefree manner, but he had provoked a huge storm.


    The Young Master of the Wang Clan had died!


    A vagabond cultivator had brutally killed him in the Life-Death Arena!


    And that vagabond cultivator was in the Soul Altar realm while the deceased Wang Shu was in the Purple Mansion realm!


    He had even taken away the two top-grade spiritual artifacts that had been passed down in the Wang Clan for generations.


    Also, if nothing unexpected happened, the husband of the noble daughter of the Li Clan would be this person.


    These pieces of news had bombarded many people until they were dizzy.


    ¡°This is all true? How could It be so sudden?¡±


    ¡°Where exactly does Zhou Feng come from?¡±


    ¡°A Soul Altar cultivator killing a Purple Mansion cultivator? And without any tricks, killing him head-on?¡±


    ¡°This is too exaggerated!¡±


    Wang Shu¡¯s previous plan to create hype had completely succeeded but in Zhou Feng¡¯s favor.


    If everything had gone smoothly, Wang Shu would have used this reputation to enter the small top circle of Heavenly Star City.


    That circle gathered all the geniuses of Heavenly Star City.


    Only true geniuses had the qualifications to come into contact with that circle.


    And the random things that leaked out from that circle were enough to get the Wang Clan out of its predicament.


    But now that Wang Shu had died, Zhou Feng had obtained this privilege. And because of Zhou Feng¡¯s identity and realm, this caused a bigger sensation than Wang Shu had expected.


    Not to mention anything else, the City Lord¡¯s faction had already begun to pay attention to this young talent, Zhou Feng.


    In any case, the fastest one should be the Li Clan. The Li Clan had already sent people to Zhou Feng¡¯s residence.


    For such a wandering genius to marry into their Li Clan wasn¡¯t considered shameful. He could just barely get by!


    Among so many people, the one who was the most surprised was naturally Elder Zheng.


    ¡®Looks like my foresight isn¡¯t bad!¡¯


    Elder Zheng had expected that Zhou Feng had great potential, or else he would not have invested in him the second time they met.


    However, Elder Zheng had invested in Zhou Feng largely because of the latter¡¯s talent in pill refinement.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess was actually so amazing.


    This time, he had really picked up a treasure.


    Elder Zheng also heard that Zhou Feng was about to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan, so he felt that he had to maintain a good relationship with Zhou Feng.


    He would make a huge fortune as long as he maintained a good relationship with such an outstanding person.


    Elder Zheng no longer thought about the various plans he had before.


    Now, he only hoped that he could maintain a good relationship with Zhou Feng, but he could not be too assertive.


    ¡®Oh no! The Heavenly Star Gathering! There are a few people in that circle who once pursued the noble daughter of the Li Clan. Now¡­¡¯


    Elder Zheng suddenly recalled that among the people who would participate in the Heavenly Star Gathering, there were two who had pursued Li Rong. They had voluntarily given up in the end due to the pressure of the clan.


    As for Zhou Feng, as the son-in-law of the Li Clan, they would make things difficult for him.


    The most terrifying thing was that Zhou Feng would not lower his head given his character.


    This¡­ This was likely to be a major incident!

 Chapter 188 - Different from Expectations

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After returning to the shop, Zhou Feng briefly looked at today¡¯s sales of the Rejuvenation Pill.


    The Rejuvenation Pill indeed had a large market, and it was still sold out today as well.


    According to this situation, Zhou Feng should not have to worry about the Spirit Stones for the time being.


    Moreover, Qian Qianqian¡¯s learning speed was also somewhat beyond his expectations.


    Although she was blind, Qian Qianqian¡¯s other senses were very sharp. She could basically sniff all kinds of medicinal herbs and know what they were.


    She had even tried to refine pills!


    Although she failed in the end, this kind of talent seemed a little abnormal.


    In just a day¡¯s time, she had familiarized herself with the pill formula of the Rejuvenation Pill, so her pill refinement technique was not too much of a problem.


    Most importantly, Qian Qianqian¡¯s blindness didn¡¯t affect her pill refinement.


    The flame relied on perception, as well as the pill¡¯s changes. If she were only refining a pill like the Rejuvenation Pill, then it wouldn¡¯t be too much of a problem.


    It wouldn¡¯t be too much of a problem if she didn¡¯t have eyes.


    At this rate, Zhou Feng would soon be able to obtain a Pill Master as an underling.


    ¡°Your current realm isn¡¯t high enough. If you forcefully refine the pill, you¡¯ll only fail. It¡¯s better to focus on familiarizing yourself with it for now.¡±


    Zhou Feng gave some simple pointers.


    The main reason Qian Qianqian failed to refine pills was that her cultivation was not high enough.


    A Body Tempering fledging wanted to refine pills? This was simply too difficult, so Zhou Feng instructed Qian Qianqian to raise her realm first before trying to refine pills.


    Anyway, with the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s assistance, Qian Qianqian¡¯s breakthrough should not be too far away.


    The only bad thing was that Qian Qianqian was already affected by the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    Her Blood Qi was chaotic.


    This was the same problem Zhou Feng had faced before, but Qian Qianqian did not pursue a higher realm.


    The advantages of this Demon-Devouring Gu were greater than the disadvantages.


    After dealing with a bunch of things, Zhou Feng returned to his residence from the small shop.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    Just as he approached his small courtyard, he noticed a few people standing at the door.


    The leader¡¯s cultivation was not low!


    ¡°Oh? You¡¯re finally back! Hello, son-in-law!¡±


    When Second Steward Li saw Zhou Feng, he immediately walked over with some things in his hands.


    Zhou Feng did not look at the specific person.


    ¡®Son-in-law?¡¯


    His face showed a baffling expression.


    ¡®I don¡¯t think I know this person in front of me!¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly and asked calmly, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, do I know you?¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t, but you will from now on. I¡¯m the Second Steward of the Li Clan. You can call me Second Steward!¡±


    Second Steward Li was very polite.


    Although from his posture and expression, this so-called Second Steward Li did not seem to be rude in any way, Zhou Feng still felt a trace of arrogance, as if he was looking down on him.


    ¡°The Li Clan?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Your wedding with our Eldest Miss¡ª¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t wait for Second Steward Li to finish speaking. ¡°Wedding? You¡¯ve found the wrong person. I don¡¯t know any Eldest Miss. Please move aside!¡±


    Zhou Feng believed that these people had found the wrong person. He didn¡¯t know any Eldest Miss at all. Ever since he entered Heavenly Star City, he hadn¡¯t had much contact with women.


    Therefore, he must have mistaken him for someone else.


    Second Steward Li also frowned. This situation did not seem right. ¡°Isn¡¯t your name Zhou Feng? Didn¡¯t you fight with Wang Shu in the Life-Death Arena?¡±


    Why did Zhou Feng look like he did not know what was going on at all?


    ¡°Yes, so? What does this have to do with your Li Clan?¡±


    Zhou Feng used his last bit of patience to talk to the person in front of him.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you know about that battle? That the winner can marry into our Li Clan?


    ¡°But it doesn¡¯t matter. You didn¡¯t know before, but now you do. I¡¯m here to discuss the matter of you marrying into our clan!¡±


    This Second Steward Li was indeed the steward of a big clan. His tone and bones were faintly emitting a trace of arrogance.


    It was as if he was saying that it was a great fortune for Zhou Feng to be able to marry into the Li Clan.


    In fact, if Zhou Feng were really a vagabond cultivator, then it would be a great fortune for him to obtain such a beautiful lady and become the son-in-law of the Li clan.


    Although becoming the son-in-law of the Li Clan had a slightly lower status than the clan members, he could at least enjoy the clan¡¯s resources.


    No matter how one looked at it, it was a great thing.


    ¡°Really? How come I didn¡¯t know this?¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows and bypassed Second Steward Li, preparing to go back and have a good rest.


    He was a little tired.


    ¡°Wait! Didn¡¯t you hear clearly? This is a chance to marry into our Li Clan!¡±


    Second Steward Li was extremely puzzled.


    Did this person not know that this was an opportunity for him to make a great leap?


    The appearance of the noble daughter of the Li Clan was not bad either!


    If it were anyone else, they would fight to be the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    ¡°Oh~¡± Zhou Feng responded indifferently.


    ¡®Crazy! Why would I suddenly become the son-in-law of the Li Clan?¡¯ he ridiculed in his heart.


    ¡®I don¡¯t seem to have much interaction with the Li Clan¡­ As for their so-called Eldest Miss, was she the young girl I met in the stone gambling den?¡¯


    Her appearance could indeed be called beautiful, but unfortunately, her personality wasn¡¯t what he liked.


    Moreover, her cultivation was too low, and her strength was lacking.


    If he had to find a dao partner, Zhou Feng¡¯s first request would be that her cultivation must be higher than his.


    This was because he did not want his dao partner to die before him.


    Given Li Rong¡¯s cultivation base, she would definitely die before him.


    Therefore, this request alone was rejected.


    Second Steward Li, who had come to discuss his marriage, was completely dumbfounded as he looked at Zhou Feng. He did not care at all!


    ¡°How could this be?¡±


    Like most people, Second Steward Li had already tacitly agreed in his heart that Zhou Feng really wanted to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan.


    Even if he did not know the specific situation before, Zhou Feng would definitely agree at the first moment. It was precisely because of this that everyone believed that Zhou Feng would agree.


    They did not consider that Zhou Feng would reject them. After all, only a fool would reject such a good thing.


    In reality, however, Zhou Feng actually rejected it, and it did not seem like he was faking it.


    That nonchalant look made Second Steward Li not know how to handle this matter for a moment.


    Before this, Second Steward Li had even anticipated Zhou Feng¡¯s ugly side and that he would ruthlessly demand the Li Clan¡¯s resources.


    Second Steward Li had already anticipated many scenarios in his heart. He used a righteous tone to warn Zhou Feng not to have any devious thoughts.


    He had to serve their Eldest Miss properly.


    Then, he would give some benefits. With a big stick in one hand and a sweet carrot in the other, he would definitely be able to tame Zhou Feng.


    He would get the Eldest Miss a sweet and suitable husband.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s nonchalant rejection threw off Second Steward Li. He did not know what to do!


    Was he going to force Zhou Feng to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law?


    Where would the Li Clan¡¯s face go if this were to get out?


    The Eldest Miss¡¯ face would also be completely lost at that time!

 Chapter 189 - Passive: Excellent Offspring

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    In Heavenly Star City, the Li Clan was a golden name.


    As long as one lived nearby, one would have heard of the Li Clan¡¯s reputation.


    Putting aside everything else, just the fact that the Li Clan possessed a Spirit Stone Vein was enough to make people fear them.


    Becoming the son-in-law of the Li Clan was a supreme honor!


    How could this be¡­


    Second Steward Li¡¯s head was about to burst, and he didn¡¯t know what to do next.


    ¡®Could it be that he wants to start the price from the ground up?¡¯


    Thinking about it, Second Steward Li felt that Zhou Feng very likely wanted to bargain.


    But thinking about it, it wasn¡¯t right. Could this person be certain that the Li Clan would choose him as their son-in-law?


    If it weren¡¯t for the special circumstances now, if it were before, a vagabond cultivator like Zhou Feng would have no way to win the favor of the noble daughter of the Li Clan.


    The problem now was how to give account to the old master.


    Second Steward Li Thought for a moment. ¡®It¡¯s better to report truthfully!¡¯


    It was naturally impossible to force Zhou Feng¡¯s actions. After all, his Li Clan still cared about their face.


    Forcing a vagabond cultivator? The Li Clan¡¯s face would be completely lost.


    This kid actually dared to look down on the Li Clan. Li Rong¡¯s admirers could simply spit on him and drown him if they were to hear that!


    The Li Clan had made a grave mistake!


    They didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be such a weirdo. Such a good thing had come to his doorstep, yet he didn¡¯t accept it.


    This would be a huge blow to Li Rong.


    But the more this was the case, the more the Li Clan couldn¡¯t make a move. If the Li Clan made a move, it would be tantamount to having no tolerance. Also, they had to say that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t meet the Li Clan¡¯s standards.


    In any case, the Li Clan¡¯s higher-ups had basically not expressed their stance.


    What was there to be proud of for a mere vagabond cultivator/


    Thinking of this, Second Steward Li directly turned around and left.


    ¡®He rejected! He actually rejected!¡¯


    Wei Gang, who was hiding at the side, concentrated on restraining his own aura to avoid being discovered by the Li Clan.


    Just now, Wei Gang had personally witnessed the scene of Zhou Feng refusing to become the Li Clan¡¯s visiting son-in-law.


    A fool? As expected from a Bitter Bamboo disciple! He rejected such a good thing!


    Such a beauty had delivered herself to him! All he had to do was nod his head, and he would be able to make her his!


    How could he reject such a beauty?


    At the same time, this was equivalent to directly offending Li Clan.


    The Li Clan did not even need to act personally. They could directly crush Zhou Feng to death!


    Wei Gang, who had been in Heavenly Star City for some time, completely understood how terrifying the Li Clan was.


    Not to mention anything else, just the Li Clan¡¯s guards alone could destroy the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Originally, Wei Gang wanted to manipulate Zhou Feng to use the Li Clan¡¯s strength to take back the sect¡¯s base.


    But now that he had offended the Li Clan, Zhou Feng could not even protect himself.


    ¡®No! I have to take advantage of the Li Clan to extract some benefits before they make a move!¡¯


    Wei Gang wanted to get some benefits before Zhou Feng died.


    In his eyes, since Zhou Feng had slapped the Li Clan¡¯s face, he was practically a dead man.


    Thus, he had to get some benefits before Zhou Feng died.


    Obviously, after leaving the Tri-Gu Sect, Zhou Feng had stumbled upon many fortuitous encounters and had many good things.


    ¡®But I still have to be careful.¡¯


    Wei Gang recalled Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying strength in the morning, directly overpowering Wang Shu.


    If he were not careful, he would lose his life.


    After all, Wei Gang was a Soul Altar cultivator, and all of his cultivation focused on the Gu in his hand.


    Wei Gang took out a small Gu and slowly placed it on the ground.


    Then, he slowly left this street.


    That small Gu was a Communication Gu. It could make a slight sound, and only those who had cultivated the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s cultivation techniques could hear it.


    Wei Gang planned to lure Zhou Feng out of Heavenly Star City and then gather with his other Senior Brothers to surround and kill Zhou Feng outside.


    For safety reasons, Wei Gang even planned to wait for a period to activate the Communication Gu and then lure Zhou Feng into the trap step by step.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng could not help but ridicule in his heart. ¡®Is there something wrong with this Li Clan? They actually came to me and asked me if I wanted to be their son-in-law?¡±


    The Li Clan¡¯s actions were simply inexplicable in his eyes.


    And that inexplicable arrogance also made him uncomfortable.


    ¡®Forget it. I should be more peaceful for now. Let¡¯s wait for the Heavenly Star Gathering!¡±


    Zhou Feng casually opened the skill panel and found that he could draw new passive skills.


    So fast? It seemed like it hadn¡¯t been much time since he had last drawn one!


    Could it be because of the Human Emperor Scripture?


    Zhou Feng had already figured out the pattern. As long as his strength or cultivation level increased, the progress bar would increase rapidly.


    Today, he had almost been able to enter the Purple Mansion realm. The Blood Qi in his entire body had been condensed once again.


    His strength had increased quite a bit, which was why the progress bar was full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing complete!¡±


    Excellent Offspring: Your success rate in producing offspring has decreased! However, your offspring has an extremely high chance of inheriting your aptitude, innate divine abilities, and cultivation base!


    And there is a 1% chance that your offspring¡¯s aptitude will surpass your talent.


    Before long, a brand new passive skill appeared.


    ¡®What the hell Is this!?!?¡¯


    When he saw this passive skill, his head was basically filled with question marks.


    ¡®What b*llsh*t passive skill is this?


    ¡®Excellent Offspring? The success rate of producing offspring is reduced? Able to inherit aptitude, innate ability, and even cultivation?¡¯


    Simply put, in the future, if he had a dao partner, it would be very difficult to conceive.


    But as long as she could conceive and give birth, the offspring would definitely be a genius!


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding of this passive skill.


    ¡®It was completely useless! What¡¯s the use of this passive skill!?¡¯


    He could not think of any use for this passive skill because giving birth was basically impossible given his situation.


    Severing love and achieving the Dao was Zhou Feng¡¯s pursuit.


    ¡®Forget it¡­ There¡¯s no loss anyway.¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not think too much about it. After all, this passive skill did not have any side effects.


    ¡®Just leave it there! Maybe I will change my mind and get married and have children in the future.


    ¡®Having another passive skill is always a good thing.¡¯


    Just as he was about to continue cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, a faint cry made his whole body tense up.


    ¡°This is¡­ the sound of a Gu?¡±


    That extremely faint sound could not be hidden from him.


    This sound was very familiar, and he seemed to have heard it before when he was in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡®Tri-Gu Sect!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s whole body tensed up as he restrained his aura.


    He quickly discovered the Gu on the street following that faint sound.


    Moreover, there was a mark of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡®Is this for me to go out of the city? The people of the Tri-Gu Sect actually found me here?¡¯


    He smelled a trace of danger.


    They were clearly luring him out of the city.


    Logically speaking, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to go out at all. As long as he stayed in Heavenly Star City, even if the Tri-Gu Sect found out that he was here, what could they do?


    Could it be that the Tri-Gu Sect dared to cause trouble in Heavenly Star City?


    But for some reason, he just wanted to go and take a look.


    ¡®The Tri-Gu Sect should be fighting against the Voodoo Cult, so it should be impossible for an Elder to be here. In other words, the enemy is at most in the Soul Altar realm!¡¯


    Zhou Feng analyzed for a moment and felt that the one who discovered him should be a Tri-Gu disciple.


    Heavenly Star City was far away from the Tri-Gu Sect, and they would definitely not send an Elder here due to the sect¡¯s current predicament.


    If that were the case, then the situation would be different..

 Chapter 190 - Tri-Gu Sect? Evil Demonic Sect!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®Soul Harvesting has not been triggered for a long time!¡¯


    Ever since Zhou Feng had come to Heavenly Star City, he had not had a suitable opportunity to trigger the passive Soul Harvesting.


    It had only been triggered once when he killed Wang Shu this morning.


    Soul Harvesting was a passive skill that could be stacked infinitely, a vital growth point for Zhou Feng.


    He was able to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture so smoothly because his soul power was sufficiently rich.


    Zhou Feng relied on Soul Harvesting to increase his soul power crazily.


    This resulted in his soul power being extremely abundant now. However, it was still not enough to condense a nascent soul if it was only at this level.


    If he wanted to condense a nascent soul that was sufficiently strong, then his soul power naturally had to be sufficient.


    Zhou Feng wanted to make use of the people from the Tri-Gu Sect to increase his soul power right now.


    This could be considered preparation before breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm!


    ¡®No matter what, escaping shouldn¡¯t be a problem for me¡­¡¯


    Because of the passive Night Guardian, he also had an advantage at night.


    During the day, he had the passive support of Daylight Combat, and at night, he had the Night Guardian.


    Then, in the wild, he could trigger the Nature Affinity.


    Zhou Feng felt that escaping was not a problem with all kinds of passive defenses.


    Therefore, he followed the traces left behind by Wei Gang.


    ¡­


    ¡°Zhou Feng? You mean Maner¡¯s husband?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Today, I saw him in Heavenly Star City! This person is doing very well! It¡¯s just that his brain is not very good!


    ¡°Originally, this person had the opportunity to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law! But he rejected it!¡±


    ¡°What!? The Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law? This kid¡¯s luck in love is so good?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Wei Gang told his fellow disciples about his encounter.


    This group of people had come to Heavenly Star City to purchase medicinal pills and materials. After all, the Tri-Gu Sect had a lot of things to do. There were too many injured disciples, and even their old homes had been wiped out.


    Due to the lack of resources, they could only send people to Heavenly Star City to purchase what they needed.


    In the vicinity, only Heavenly Star City had enough resources.


    But they didn¡¯t expect to meet Zhou Feng here.


    The Tri-Gu Sect had put a bounty on Zhou Feng.


    It was worth mentioning that there had been many people in the Tri-Gu Sect who sympathized with Zhou Feng at the beginning.


    Moreover, most people believed that he had betrayed the sect because of Gong Jiu¡¯s oppression.


    As a result, Zhou Feng had had no other choice but to betray the sect.


    Gong Jiu naturally did not agree with this statement and immediately labeled Zhou Feng as a traitor to the sect.


    When all the disciples met Zhou Feng outside, they could kill him without showing any mercy.


    After the Voodoo Cult¡¯s invasion, Gong Jiu and Ye Zai had both survived, and they were trying to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    As for the Sect Leader and Leng Maner, they had disappeared while the other two factions slaughtered the Ice Spirit faction¡¯s remaining people.


    The Grand Elder, Old Demon Gu, was also missing.


    He had suddenly shouted that there was someone who could destroy the Demon-Devouring Gu and disappeared into the horizon.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was extremely weak now, not a match against the Voodoo Cult.


    ¡°Do you think that Zhou Feng will foolishly come?¡±


    ¡°If he stays in Heavenly Star City, we won¡¯t be able to do anything, right?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I don¡¯t dare to make a move in Heavenly Star City. We will return to the sect in two days!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Although Wei Gang and the others had set up an inescapable net here, everything would be for naught if the prey didn¡¯t come.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. If he doesn¡¯t come, we will expose that he¡¯s a Tri-Gu disciple!


    ¡°How do I put this? In the eyes of the big clans in Heavenly Star City, our Tri-Gu Sect should be considered an evil demonic sect!


    ¡°This kid has also brought shame to the Li Clan. At that time, as long as we make a fuss, Zhou Feng won¡¯t be able to stay in Heavenly Star City anymore!


    ¡°Perhaps we can even threaten him like this!¡±


    Wei Gang was not worried that Zhou Feng would not come because he knew that Zhou Feng had just ruined the Li Clan¡¯s reputation.


    Another thing was that the reputation of the Tri-Gu Sect was not good, compared to the big clans like Heavenly Star City.


    The Tri-Gu Sect was an evil sect in a remote place.


    As long as the news that Zhou Feng was a Tri-Gu disciple was exposed, coupled with the fact that Zhou Feng had ruined the Li Clan¡¯s reputation, some so-called righteous people would want to wipe out the evil Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Uh-huh. Can you do that?¡±


    ¡°Of course! Whether it¡¯s the Tri-Gu Sect or the Voodoo Cult, they are just evil demons in the eyes of those people in Heavenly Star City!¡±


    Background!


    Naturally, background was not so valued in a remote place like the Tri-Gu Sect.


    But in a place like Heavenly Star City, such things were highly valued.


    Being from the Tri-Gu Sect meant being from an evil demonic sect; this was not an option.


    Regional discrimination was especially obvious in Heavenly Star City.


    If not for his dazzling battle record and good aptitude, Zhou Feng would probably not receive a lot of respect.


    Of course, this was also because Zhou Feng was not very sensitive.


    An ordinary vagabond cultivator without Zhou Feng¡¯s strength would find it difficult to move an inch in Heavenly Star City.


    ¡®Is that so? If that¡¯s the case, then it¡¯s a bit troublesome! I still want to use the Heavenly Star Gathering to find the place with the Malevolent Earth Qi!¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard Wei Gang¡¯s words, he raised his brows slightly.


    If that were the case, then these people would not be able to live through the night.


    He still needed to rely on the Heavenly Star Gathering to find out where to find Malevolent Earth Qi.


    According to what these people had just said, once the matter of him being from the Tri-Gu Sect was exposed, it was very likely that Zhou Feng would not be able to participate in the Heavenly Star Gathering.


    Actually, he did not care about anything else; he only cared about the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    One had to know that this Malevolent Earth Qi was related to his breakthrough, so Wei Gang and the others couldn¡¯t live past tonight.


    ¡®All of them are Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivators, and they even set up a formation?¡¯


    Zhou Feng relied on the passive Night Guardian. It was as if he was wearing an invisible veil.


    Even though he was very close to Wei Gang and the others, no one noticed him.


    He first estimated the cultivation level of these people.


    Basically, they were all Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivators. Their strength couldn¡¯t be considered weak, but they weren¡¯t very strong either.


    The only slightly troublesome thing was that formation.


    ¡®Forget it. I¡¯ll just crush it directly!¡¯


    Zhou Feng originally wanted to think of another method, but he felt it was best to crush it after pondering over it.


    He would just use the Purple Jade Bell.


    ¡®Purple Jade Bell!¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly burned all of his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi and then activated the Purple Jade Bell that had been silent for a very long time!


    The Purple Jade Bell that had been nurtured in the Soul Altar was now covered with complicated golden patterns.


    The moment he activated it, a magnificent and domineering aura exploded.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    ¡°Sneak attack! Someone is sneak attacking!¡±


    ¡°Set up the formation!¡±


    Wei Gang and the others instantly felt that something was wrong, and they all stood up and entered battle-mode..

 Chapter 191 - Murder and Arson Gold Belt

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Wei Gang had witnessed Zhou Feng¡¯s strength before, so he had long set up a big formation here. It was called Heart-Linking Formation, and only elite disciples who ventured outside were qualified to learn using it.


    The specific function was to connect the spiritual power of nine people and then use the Heart-Linking Gu to combine the power of the nine people.


    Simply put, it was able to use all of the power of the nine people.


    It wouldn¡¯t cause any waste.


    At first, the others thought that Wei Gang was just making a fuss over nothing.


    No matter how powerful that Zhou Feng was, he was only in the Soul Altar realm. Was there a need to make such a big scene? He was not a Purple Mansion cultivator!


    However, Wei Gang and the others still set up the Heart-Linking Formation in advance due to caution.


    It was now the perfect time to use it.


    An illusory insect shadow roared toward the sky, and a gray shield of light enveloped Wei Gang and the others.


    The Purple Jade Bell emitted a golden and purple light, suppressing the formation like a mountain.


    ¡°Break!¡±


    Zhou Feng gathered his strength and broke a small hole in the formation.


    Then, his body crashed into the formation, forcefully charging into it.


    The moment he entered the formation, a strong corrosive power corroded his body.


    ¡°The ignorant are fearless! How dare he break into the Heart-linking Formation with his body?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll take this opportunity to refine this person here. He must have a big secret!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Since he has cultivated to such a level after leaving the sect, he must have had a fortuitous encounter!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When they saw that Zhou Feng actually dared to barge into the formation alone¡­ Other than Wei Gang, everyone was overjoyed.


    Wasn¡¯t this sending himself to their doorstep? Although Zhou Feng was strong, it wouldn¡¯t be so easy for him to break free after falling into the formation.


    As long as they refined this person here, they might be able to obtain enough resources to raise their cultivation level.


    Unlike the others who were overjoyed, Wei Gang, who had seen Zhou Feng kill Wang Shu, had a trace of worry on his face.


    Was Zhou Feng really a fool?


    Wei Gang did not think so.


    Could a fool take the opportunity to leave the sect? Moreover, he had made a name for himself in Heavenly Star City.


    At that moment, Wei Gang was already thinking of a way to escape.


    ¡°Heart refinement!¡±


    Wei Gang¡¯s fellow disciples activated the formation, and a black fog instantly swept toward Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body erupted with dazzling golden light, and the thick Blood Qi started to burn crazily.


    He seemed to have turned into a brilliant sun again at that moment.


    The black fog around him immediately began to evaporate.


    Zhou Feng pounced on a person, completely ignoring what was around him, and threw a punch.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The shrill scream was like a sharp claw cutting through glass. It was ear-piercing and made people¡¯s hearts tremble.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch pierced through the person¡¯s chest, and then he chopped off his head.


    The price was a huge wound that went from his chest all the way to his shoulder.


    That shrill scream made many people present feel as if a basin of cold water had been poured over their heads.


    One person died just like that?


    This person didn¡¯t want to live anymore?


    Those who hadn¡¯t fought against Zhou Feng were once again shocked by his madness.


    Even if he won in the end, the price he had to pay for this kind of reckless fighting style wasn¡¯t low.


    Such a self-harming battle style, what was this person thinking?


    ¡°Attack!¡±


    The remaining people wanted to restrict Zhou Feng¡¯s movements.


    However, Zhou Feng did not give them any chance. All of his attacks were met head-on. Then, he relied on his terrifying physical body to punch them one by one.


    The passive buffs of Tough Skin, Old Skin, Armor-Piercing Spear, and so on made Zhou Feng appear overwhelming to his opponents.


    That was especially so for the Armor-Piercing Spear, which was useless when challenging people of a higher level.


    This passive skill was much more effective against opponents of the same realm. It was too abnormal to ignore the characteristics of defense directly.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng was now walking the path of the ¡®10,000 techniques return to one¡¯, relying purely on physical strength to attack.


    A force of hundreds of thousands of pounds landed on a person¡¯s body, and part of the force ignored the protective Spiritual Qi.


    No one could withstand this punch.


    Most importantly, these people had never fought with him before.


    The opponent would be instantly dumbfounded when the Armor-Piercing Spear was triggered.


    One punch! One punch! One punch!


    Severed heads fell to the ground one after another.


    What made these people most desperate was that Zhou Feng¡¯s expression remained the same from the beginning to the end. There was not the slightest fluctuation on his face.


    Begging for mercy? Threatening? Or something else?


    Zhou Feng acted as if he did not hear anything. He did not even speak and slaughtered them one by one.


    Unfortunately, they could not escape even if they wanted to. The Purple Jade Bell above their heads was like a huge mountain suppressing them.


    The moment they wanted to escape, the Purple Jade Bell could instantly crush them into minced meat.


    Wei Gang, who was in a desperate situation, immediately shouted, ¡°Wait! I¡¯ve already written a letter about you. If I don¡¯t appear tomorrow¡ª¡±


    It turned out that Wei Gang had written a letter before this for double insurance.


    The letter was about Zhou Feng.


    The letter would be sent to the sect once Wei Gang didn¡¯t appear the next day.


    Now, Wei Gang wanted to use this matter to threaten Zhou Feng.


    But before he could finish speaking, Zhou Feng sent Wei Gang¡¯s head flying with a punch.


    The violent force caused Wei Gang¡¯s head to fly into the air and explode.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t he afraid that the sect will come knocking on his door?¡¯


    ¡®Isn¡¯t he afraid that his identity as a Tri-Gu disciple will be leaked?¡±


    These were the thoughts in Wei Gang¡¯s mind before he died.


    Originally, Wei Gang had been under the impression that he could use this secret weapon to save his life.


    Then, he had slowly plotted other things. In any case, he had first to put Zhou Feng under control.


    As long as he could control Zhou Feng, then everything else could be manipulated.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not fall for this trick at all. Threats were useless.


    He had even killed Wang Shu in front of many people.


    ¡®Tri-Gu Sect? When I break through to the Purple Mansion realm, I will settle the score!¡¯


    Zhou Feng calmed down the violent Blood Qi in his body, and then his Tenacious Heart began to consume Blood Qi to heal his injuries.


    He had killed all the Tri-Gu Sect members.


    Without these people, the formation also slowly dissipated.


    The Purple Jade Bell on his head also returned to its original state, returning to his Soul Altar to get nurtured.


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the skill panel and found that the passive Soul Harvesting had been activated several times.


    His soul power had also increased a lot.


    Adding the storage bags on these people, it was another day of bumper harvest.


    Compared to slowly refining pills and earning Spirit Stones, killing people and setting fires were much faster.


    Zhou Feng glanced at these people¡¯s storage bags and found that they were filled with materials.


    A storage bag should have several hundred thousand Spirit Stones.


    But now, there were seven or eight storage bags.. These Spirit Stones came too quickly~

 Chapter 192 - White Tiger Protection?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Murder and arson gold belt¡ªthis sentence would not be a problem no matter where he put it.


    After Zhou Feng briefly packed up the spoils of war, he took advantage of the night to return to Heavenly Star City.


    The battle just now had given him a clear understanding of his own strength.


    Relying on the buffs of all kinds of passive skills, Zhou Feng felt that basically, no one in the same realm was his match.


    The Human Emperor Scripture and those defensive passive skills were too compatible.


    His body had been strengthened to a terrifying degree by cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Then, all kinds of passive skills increased his defense.


    The most terrifying was the combination of Self-Healing Physique and Tenacious Heart.


    He was not afraid of getting hurt at all. On the contrary, getting hurt was beneficial to Zhou Feng.


    The passive Injury Conversion could directly transform injuries into attack power.


    ¡°Realm! It¡¯s still not enough!¡±


    Right now, the problem in front of Zhou Feng was how to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Compared to his previous crazy breakthroughs, Zhou Feng felt as if he had been stuck in the Soul Altar realm for a very long time.


    One had to know that he had been continuously making leaps and bounds of breakthroughs before this.


    But now that he had been stuck here all this time, it made Zhou Feng¡¯s heart begin to feel somewhat irritated.


    ¡®If I can¡¯t find the Malevolent Earth Qi, then I can only think of other methods!¡¯


    ¡­


    As the sun rose, Heavenly Star City began to clamor as usual.


    It was the day of the Heavenly Star Gathering, and it was also the key to Zhou Feng¡¯s breakthrough.


    The Heavenly Star Gathering was held at the Heavenly Star Terrace in the inner city.


    This Heavenly Star Terrace was a tower built like the Heavenly Star Tree, and it was usually not open to the public.


    It was only open during the Heavenly Star Gathering.


    Zhou Feng had not slept at all yesterday and used his cultivation to replace sleep.


    ¡®Let¡¯s set off immediately!¡¯


    He packed up briefly, left Big Yellow at the shop, and prepared to head to the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to head to the Heavenly Star Terrace¡­


    An undercurrent started to surge against Zhou Feng.


    First of all, it was naturally the Wang Clan that targeted Zhou Feng.


    Wang Shu had been killed, and he had even lost the clan¡¯s ancestral spiritual artifacts, so the Wang Clan in Heavenly Star City had become a joke.


    Some small clans had already begun to stir, wanting to rip off a piece of flesh from the Wang Clan.


    Now, the Wang Clan wished they could kill Zhou Feng in one strike. If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng, they wouldn¡¯t have fallen into such a situation.


    Therefore, the Wang Clan had already announced that they would gather at the Heavenly Star Gathering to challenge Zhou Feng.


    Other than that, there was the matter of Zhou Feng refusing to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    It was rumored that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t take a fancy to the noble daughter of the Li Clan and had ruthlessly humiliated the Li Clan.


    The previous incident was just a joke to everyone.


    However, this incident instantly caused a huge shock.


    ¡°He doesn¡¯t like the noble daughter of the Li Clan? Is that true?¡±


    ¡°This is a rumor, right? That¡¯s the noble daughter of the Li Clan. It can¡¯t be that the Li Clan has chosen someone else, right?¡±


    ¡°The Wang Clan should be spreading rumors! They want to use the Li Clan to deal with Zhou Feng!¡±


    ¡°Probably! However, the noble daughter of the Li Clan has many admirers. I¡¯m afraid that Zhou Feng will be in trouble next time!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Everyone was basically skeptical about Zhou Feng looking down on Li Rong.


    After all, if he even looked down on the noble daughter of the Li Clan, how high his standards must be!


    Therefore, basically, everyone was biased toward Zhou Feng being targeted by others.


    Moreover, the Wang Clan was a ready target for suspicion.


    It could be said that Zhou Feng and the Wang Clan had a deep-seated hatred. It wasn¡¯t anything special for the Wang Clan to deliberately target Zhou Feng.


    However, the truth was that he really looked down on Li Rong.


    From the point of view of choosing a dao partner, Li Rong was almost useless apart from her background.


    Especially her personality, which was what Zhou Feng hated the most.


    The Heavenly Star Gathering was a top-class gathering in Heavenly Star City. Although many people weren¡¯t qualified to participate, many people were still surrounding the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    This was because, for these people, although they could not enter the Heavenly Star Terrace, they could still make friends outside the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    ¡°So many people?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw the sea of people in front of him, he was immediately stunned.


    He originally thought that he had arrived early enough, but he did not expect that there were already so many people.


    ¡°Hey! Brother! You are also here to attend the Heavenly Star Gathering?¡±


    Just as he was stunned for a few seconds, someone came forward to talk to him.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t we get to know each other? I happen to be in the medicinal pill business!¡±


    The person in front of him acted as if they were familiar with each other. When he spoke to Zhou Feng, it was as if he had known him for a long time.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not pay attention to this person. He only lightly left a sentence and walked towards the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    ¡°Hey! Brother! Are you walking in the wrong direction! That place¡­¡±


    When that person saw Zhou Feng walking toward the Heavenly Star Terrace, he immediately wanted to give him a reminder.


    That place was a gathering that only the descendants of large clans attended. People like them could only gather outside.


    However, before he could finish speaking, Zhou Feng had already taken out an invitation card.


    ¡°F*ck! This¡­ This person!¡±


    Originally, he had wanted to get to know Zhou Feng due to the latter¡¯s temperament, but he did not expect that he had misjudged him.


    This was a thigh!


    ¡°Zhou Feng?¡±


    ¡°Stop!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng took out the invitation card and originally thought that he would be able to walk in directly.


    However, a few people blocked his way.


    ¡°I heard that you look down on Little Rong?¡±


    ¡°You even look down on the noble daughter of the Li Clan! Your standards are quite high!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhao Baihu acted as though he was here to cause trouble, staring down at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°You are?¡±


    Zhou Feng sized up Zhao Baihu.


    ¡®Purple Mansion realm? Any random person was at the Purple Mansion realm?¡¯


    He sensed Zhao Baihu¡¯s aura and discovered that this person was actually a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    And the person next to him was also in the Purple Mansion realm.


    An invisible pressure instantly pressed down on his heart.


    Too Low! His current realm was truly too low.


    Challenging those of a higher realm was something Zhou Feng hated the most. He needed to raise his realm quickly.


    He reminded himself once more in his heart.


    ¡°Hmph! I represent one of the four beasts of Heavenly Star City! White Tiger! Zhao Baihu!¡±


    ¡°Little Rong is my future woman! I advise you not to continue pestering Little Rong. Otherwise, with your small body¡­¡±


    Zhao Baihu went straight to the point and warned Zhou Feng.


    To be honest, in Zhao Baihu¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t even a match for him.


    A mere vagabond cultivator with such a weak soul power hadn¡¯t even cultivated the visualization technique.


    To be able to break through to the Purple Mansion realm was already an ancestor¡¯s virtue.


    As for defeating a half-baked Purple Mansion cultivator, in the eyes of a genius like Zhao Baihu, it wasn¡¯t the least bit convincing.


    Zhao Baihu had truly challenged someone of a higher level, and he had killed a Purple Mansion cultivator who had unlocked his innate divine ability at the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡®So powerful! Is this the roar of a tiger?¡¯


    Although Zhao Baihu didn¡¯t intentionally target Zhou Feng, he felt tremendous pressure.


    He could even faintly hear the endless roar of a tiger by his ears!


    This feeling was like a white tiger protecting Zhao Baihu¡¯s body.


    Such pressure was countless times stronger than that of Wang Shu!


    ¡®Is this a true genius of Heavenly Star City?¡¯


    Zhou Feng believed that the person in front of him was definitely not the most monstrous genius of Heavenly Star City..

 Chapter 193 - We Are Not Compatible

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhao Baihu believed that Zhou Feng looking down on Li Rong was probably just a rumor. A mere vagabond cultivator simply didn¡¯t have the guts to ignore the Li Clan.


    Thus, Zhao Baihu wanted to use Zhou Feng to warn some people.


    Zhou Feng was just a little chicken to make an example out of. If it weren¡¯t for the clan warning him, Zhao Baihu probably would have directly gone to the Li Clan to propose marriage.


    There was also that brat Wang Shu, who had deliberately been loitering in front of Li Rong all day long.


    If he hadn¡¯t been in closed-door cultivation previously, Zhao Baihu would definitely have taught Wang Shu a good lesson.


    ¡°Is there anything else?¡±


    Although Zhou Feng felt an extremely strong pressure from Zhao Baihu¡¯s body, he only replied indifferently.


    ¡°Yo-ho! You still look quite arrogant. You vagabond cultivators all look like birds!


    ¡°Each one of you has decent aptitudes, but you are extremely arrogant. The path of cultivation is not as simple as you think!¡±


    When Zhao Baihu saw Zhou Feng¡¯s calm expression, he instantly thought of those vagabond cultivators he had met previously.


    Each of them had decent aptitudes, and some were even able to defeat the disciples of large clans.


    These vagabond cultivators usually had a kind of enmity toward the disciples of large clans, and they were extremely arrogant in their hearts.


    Only when the cruel reality struck these people hard would they wake up.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry! You¡¯re not worthy of me making a move, you piece of trash which hasn¡¯t even cultivated an avatar!¡±


    Zhao Baihu directly stated that he wouldn¡¯t make a move.


    The reason was that Zhou Feng was too weak and wasn¡¯t worthy of him making a move at all.


    ¡®Avatar?


    ¡®Is it the white tiger behind him?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard the word ¡®avatar¡¯, he immediately thought of the faint white tiger behind Zhao Bai Hu.


    Not many people present could see the avatar behind Zhao Bai Hu.


    It was also because his senses were too sharp that he could sense the existence of the white tiger.


    Could this be the main cultivation path for Purple Mansion cultivators?


    After leaving the Tri-Gu Sect, although Zhou Feng was very free, he had many disadvantages.


    For example, he did not have any channels to obtain cultivation knowledge.


    He did not know anything about the Purple Mansion realm. He did not even know much about the Soul Altar realm.


    After all, there was no one to teach him, nor anyone trod on the same path as he did. Zhou Feng was already at a disadvantage in this aspect.


    Zhao Baihu did not have much patience to argue here; he was prepared to give his final warning. ¡°In any case, you are not worthy of Little Rong! If¡ª¡±


    But before he could finish, Zhou Feng interrupted him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ve already rejected it. I¡¯m not interested in the matters between a man and a woman. Can you move aside now?¡±


    Whenever a woman was involved, it would lead into a pile of trouble.


    He had clearly not provoked the noble daughter of the Li Clan, and the two of them had only met once.


    How could there be so much trouble?


    When Zhou Feng¡¯s voice fell, the surroundings suddenly became silent.


    ¡°What did he say just now? Did you hear him?¡±


    ¡°Refuse? He refused to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan? In other words, the Li Clan did not change their target!¡±


    ¡°But this person refused such a benefit that fell from the sky?¡±


    ¡°Huh!?¡±


    At first, everyone was still puzzled as to why there was no movement from the Li Clan.


    For Li Rong¡¯s marriage, even the heir of a large clan had died.


    Although the Wang Clan had already declined, the death of a clan member was still very surprising.


    Now everyone finally knew why the Li Clan hadn¡¯t shown any reaction.


    It turned out that Zhou Feng had refused. From a certain point of view, it could be considered that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t look up to Li Rong.


    This was because, based on the background of both parties, it was considered a great fortune for Zhou Feng to be able to marry into the Li Clan.


    ¡°What!? What did you just say?¡±


    Zhao Baihu, who was able to maintain his usual composure, instantly started breathing heavily. His eyes widened like copper bells, and a domineering aura started to spread.


    A low rumble echoed, and it sounded like a tiger snoring.


    ¡°You actually dare to refuse? Kid, are you courting death? Even if it¡¯s Little Rong¡¯s foot-washing water, you¡¯re not worthy of it! Do you understand?¡±


    That powerful aura pressed down on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to stir, and the terrifying Blood Qi resisted Zhao Baihu¡¯s aura.


    The atmosphere instantly became tense.


    The surrounding people immediately backed away, not daring to stand nearby.


    ¡°Zhao Baihu! What are you doing!?¡±


    Just as the atmosphere was tense, a clear and angry voice drifted into everyone¡¯s ears.


    Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Li Rong.


    They saw that Li Rong, who had just appeared, was dressed up in a hundred-flower flowing cloud dress.


    This hundred-flower dress perfectly displayed her hot figure. Her snow-white mountain peak was even more eye-catching.


    A simple hairpin tied up her soft black hair. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her fair and flawless skin emitted a faint pink.


    Li Rong¡¯s appearance could be said to be stunning in all directions. However, Li Rong¡¯s face carried traces of anger at this moment.


    ¡°No¡­ I didn¡¯t do anything!¡±


    After Zhao Baihu saw Li Rong, he became like a deflated rubber ball, and that terrifying aura just now disappeared without a trace.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng also turned his head over.


    A trace of astonishment flashed through his eyes.


    Although he had met Li Rong once, this encounter truly shocked him.


    She was indeed worthy of being a noble daughter of a large clan. Whether it was her temperament or appearance, they were all top-notch.


    Her cultivation seemed to have risen as well!


    Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm? She was about to break through to the Purple Mansion realm?


    When he had met Li Rong previously, her cultivation didn¡¯t seem to be that high!


    Even Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how to face Li Rong.


    Both sides had only spoken once, and even their basic understanding was based on hearsay.


    Thus, he maintained his silence.


    Li Rong looked at Zhou Feng, and the anger on her face immediately disappeared, turning into a trace of shyness.


    The shyness of lowering her head seemed to let people see the shyness of a water lotus flower that could not withstand the cold wind.


    This unique display lingered in the hearts of everyone.


    Zhao Baihu¡¯s face revealed an infatuated expression.


    Li Rong mustered up her courage and walked to Zhou Feng¡¯s side. She stuttered a little as she greeted him, ¡°That¡­ That¡­ Big Brother Zhou! We meet again!¡±


    ¡°Hello,¡± Zhou Feng replied very briefly.


    ¡®Damn it! This kid!¡¯ Zhao Baihu was instantly enraged upon seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s cold expression. ¡®Little Rong is greeting you, yet you act so cold!?¡¯


    Facing his cold expression, not only did Li Rong not feel displeased, but she even became shyer.


    A trace of embarrassment crept up to her ears.


    Seeing Li Rong¡¯s appearance, many people¡¯s hearts instantly broke.


    Zhao Baihu, who was right next to her, immediately felt suffocated.


    ¡®This is troublesome!¡¯


    Such a great beauty seemed to have fallen in love with him, but Zhou Feng instead felt endless trouble.


    In this kind of situation, he had to cut the Gordian knot quickly!


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! We¡¯re not compatible!¡±

 Chapter 194 - Free and Easy

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng judged that there would definitely be endless trouble if he didn¡¯t say it out loud.


    Even though he had already caused endless trouble¡­


    When he said that they weren¡¯t compatible, the scene was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.


    ¡°Is he rejecting the noble daughter of the Li Clan in public?¡±


    ¡°What right does he have? Not only did he gain the favor of the noble daughter of the Li Clan, but he actually rejected her?¡±


    ¡°Crazy! Is the world crazy?¡±


    Many people were dumbfounded.


    He was receiving the favor of a peerless beauty, yet he rejected her!?


    Normally, if other men were in Zhou Feng¡¯s shoes, they would at most express their rejection on the surface.


    However, Zhou Feng was not. He directly said it out loud, and he was extremely calm.


    ¡®This kid!¡¯ At that moment, Zhao Baihu¡¯s lungs were about to explode from anger. ¡®This kid actually dared to do this.¡¯


    If it were not for Li Rong, who was beside him, Zhao Baihu might not have been able to hold himself back and would have already attacked.


    When Li Rong heard that, she was also stunned.


    Perhaps she had never met such a direct person before.


    Zhou Feng took a deep breath and spoke again. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I just want to focus on my cultivation for now.¡±


    After Li Rong was stunned, she quickly calmed down and said nonchalantly, ¡°It¡¯s okay. We can be friends!¡±


    At that moment, Li Rong finally understood why she was attracted to Zhou Feng.


    It was not because of his appearance, nor was it because of his temperament.


    As the noble daughter of the Li Clan, she had seen all kinds of handsome men and geniuses.


    But why was she attracted to Zhou Feng at first sight after meeting him?


    This wasn¡¯t the love between a man and a woman but a form of envy.


    That¡¯s right! It was envy!


    She was envious of the fact that Zhou Feng could be so free and do as he pleased!


    If he had something to say, he would say it. Basically, he didn¡¯t consider others but also himself.


    Live for himself! This sounded very simple, but no one could do it.


    No matter what, others more or less influenced people.


    Especially Li Rong, who came from a large clan. All kinds of rules and regulations had bound her since she was young.


    These suffocating rules made Li Rong not dare to misbehave at all.


    Her life was fixed, and what she did at any time was also fixed.


    However, Li Rong did not have the courage to resist, and it was precisely because of this that she was attracted to Zhou Feng.


    This unique and willful temperament was what Li Rong yearned for.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s willfulness also required a price to be paid.


    The simplest thing was that it was easy to offend people.


    Often, this kind of person died the fastest! They did not know when they would offend someone.


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. ¡°Friend? Sure. We are friends now. If there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll go in first.¡±


    After saying that, he turned around and entered the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    Zhao Baihu, who was clenching his fists tightly, originally wanted to make a move, but he immediately became discouraged after taking a glance at Li Rong.


    ¡®How nonchalant¡­¡¯


    When Li Rong saw Zhou Feng turn around and leave, she was stunned again, and then a trace of envy flashed in her eyes.


    Then, she followed him into the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    Zhao Baihu was like a follower, following Li Rong closely.


    ¡°This¡­ This is really a fierce person! He¡¯s fine?¡±


    ¡°I admire him! I can only say that I admire him!¡±


    ¡°Really! That wasn¡¯t an illusion!?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s really free and easy, but I¡¯m afraid that this person won¡¯t live long!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Everyone could only write the word ¡®admire¡¯ regarding Zhou Feng¡¯s actions just now.


    There was actually such a fierce person who could reject such a good thing. Moreover, he had even said that they weren¡¯t compatible in front of Li Rong.


    The most infuriating thing was that the noble daughter of the Li Clan wasn¡¯t angry. Instead, the two of them became friends?


    What f*cking nonsense!


    If they hadn¡¯t witnessed all of this with their own eyes, no one present would have believed it.


    However, Zhou Feng was free and easy. Whether he could survive was a problem.


    Rejecting the Li Clan was a slap to the Li Clan¡¯s face.


    The Li Clan naturally wouldn¡¯t make a move over such a small matter, but the problem was that there were many vassal families under the Li Clan.


    These families would definitely make a move in order to flatter the Li Clan.


    They might even join forces with the Wang Clan to target Zhou Feng.


    Don¡¯t forget, after the Wang Clan learned that Zhou Feng might attend the Heavenly Star Gathering, they released the word¡ªthey wanted Zhou Feng to pay the price at the Heavenly Star Gathering and wash away the shame of their Wang Clan.


    Other than the Wang Clan and the vassal families of the Li Clan, Li Rong¡¯s admirers might also find trouble with Zhou Feng. Not everyone was as licentious as Zhao Baihu.


    Some people might try to kill Zhou Feng just to show their face in front of Li Rong, and some others would even kill him just to give face to the Li Clan.


    The price of being free and easy was that it was easy to die.


    ¡°The trading desk¡­ is over there!¡±


    After Zhou Feng entered the Heavenly Star Terrace, he went straight to the hall on the first floor.


    According to the information given by Elder Zheng, if one wanted to know where the Malevolent Earth Qi was, they could go to the trading desk to have a look.


    That was the place where the Heavenly Star Gathering was specially used for trading.


    In addition to all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, there were also all kinds of information to be traded.


    As long as the price you paid was high enough, you could basically exchange for the things you needed.


    ¡°So few people?¡±


    At this time, there were not many people at the trading desk.


    Zhou Feng first observed for a while, then rented a place next to it.


    ¡°A safe place with the Malevolent Earth Qi! I¡¯ll reward you with a spiritual armor!¡±


    In order to find the place with the Malevolent Earth Qi faster, Zhou Feng had paid a lot of money.


    As long as one gave the coordinates with the Malevolent Earth Qi, and it was safe, they could exchange them for a spiritual weapon.


    This spiritual weapon was naturally the armor that he had plundered from Wang Shu.


    As for why he emphasized safety, it was because places with the Malevolent Earth Qi were usually very dangerous.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to go to those places where he had a slim chance of survival.


    He was looking for the Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture so that he could condense the Human Emperor Blood as soon as possible and then condense his nascent soul.


    He didn¡¯t want to do anything that was courting death.


    ¡°It¡¯s still not attractive enough!¡±


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng took the Battle Soul Spear out of his storage ring and put it on the table.


    The moment the Battle Soul Spear appeared, it attracted the attention of several people nearby.


    ¡°This is¡­ a top-grade attack spiritual weapon? There seems to be a battle soul sealed inside!¡±


    ¡°Malevolent Earth Qi?¡±


    ¡°A top-grade spiritual weapon in exchange for the coordinates of a place with Malevolent Earth Qi?¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    As a clan heirloom of the Wang Clan, this Battle Soul Spear could be said to be the best of the best among the spiritual weapons.


    The Battle Soul Spear attracted everyone present, but many people were hesitant after seeing the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    A place with Malevolent Earth Qi? And it must be safe?


    This condition seemed to be a little difficult.


    Moreover, one had to use extremely specific information to exchange for this spiritual weapon.


    It should be impossible to exchange vague information.


    However, the problem was that some large factions occupied safe places with Malevolent Earth Qi.


    Not only could Malevolent Earth Qi be used as a material to nurture spiritual artifacts, but it also had the effect of refining artifacts. Therefore, it was usually occupied by large factions..

 Chapter 195 - Solitude

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°It seems that the Li Clan has occupied one of the Spirit Stone Mines!¡±


    ¡°It seems that the Spirit Stone Mines occupied by the Li Clan have a place where the Spirit Stone Mines are filled with Malevolent Earth Qi!¡±


    ¡°However, it is unlikely for outsiders to go there!¡±


    Although many people were eyeing the top-grade spiritual artifact in front of them, no one stepped forward.


    That was because all the places that could produce Malevolent Earth Qi had been occupied.


    There were basically no ownerless places.


    ¡®Is this Malevolent Earth Qi so precious?¡¯ Zhou Feng carefully observed his surroundings.


    He did not expect that Malevolent Earth Qi was quite rare. It seemed that his path of cultivation was still filled with hardships.


    Originally, he thought that he would be able to get news about the Malevolent Earth Qi very soon.


    ¡°Eh? That group of people¡­¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Suddenly, a group of people walked in aggressively from outside.


    And it looked like they were heading straight for Zhou Feng.


    ¡°You are Zhou Feng?¡±


    The person in the lead was a strong man with a resolute expression, and there were a few scars on his face.


    The moment he came in, he asked if he was Zhou Feng.


    That aggressive aura was clearly looking for trouble.


    ¡°I am.¡± Zhou Feng calmly nodded.


    ¡°Very good! Then do you know who¡¯s the owner of this armor and spear?¡±


    Wang Jin pointed at the armor and spear on the stage, and his aura rose.


    Following Wang Jin¡¯s actions, the person behind him also erupted with a terrifying aura.


    Purple Mansion realm! But there was no avatar!


    Zhou Feng felt this aura. He discovered that although Wang Jin was in the Purple Mansion realm, the pressure he gave Zhou Feng was completely inferior to Zhao Baihu¡¯s.


    Moreover, there was no avatar behind Wang Jin.


    ¡°They are naturally mine!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses sensed that there was a mysterious aura circulating within the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    Making a move in the Heavenly Star Terrace was simply not giving face to the City Lord. Thus, Zhou Feng was certain that Wang Jin wouldn¡¯t dare to truly make a move.


    And even if Wang Jin really did dare to make a move, he wouldn¡¯t be the slightest bit afraid. If he couldn¡¯t win, he would at most flee.


    If he could not run away, he would die!


    Zhou Feng did not know when his mentality had become like this. It was as if he had seen through the mortal world.


    Sometimes, as long as he was a little more tactful, there would not be so much trouble.


    However, he refused and insisted on following his own thoughts.


    In many people¡¯s eyes, this kind of behavior was actually not much different from courting death.


    ¡°Yours? You¡­ If you have the guts, say it again!¡±


    Wang Jin suppressed his anger, and a trace of special power emerged from his body.


    This trace of special power actually resonated with the two spiritual artifacts in front of him.


    A dazzling light flashed from the armor and the spear.


    As the Wang Clan¡¯s heirlooms, these two top-grade spiritual artifacts actually had the Wang Clan¡¯s mark.


    Ordinary people could not use these two spiritual artifacts at all. Even if they were forcefully used, their power would be greatly reduced.


    If one could not even suppress these two spiritual artifacts, they would fly straight back to the Wang Clan.


    However, under the control of no one, suppressing these two spiritual artifacts was just a matter of lifting one¡¯s hand to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Mine!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s tone was still as calm as ever.


    The power of the Human Emperor that had yet to take shape in his body slightly erupted, directly suppressing the two spiritual artifacts.


    The dazzling light from earlier was instantly extinguished.


    ¡°Awesome! This person¡­¡±


    ¡°Not only did he directly snatch the two spiritual artifacts from the Wang Clan¡¯s hands, but now he can still say that they¡¯re his with a blank expression!¡±


    ¡°The mark of the Wang Clan should still be there! Isn¡¯t this person a vagabond cultivator? Why does he look so confident?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people were dumbfounded when they saw Zhou Feng and the members of the Wang Clan standing there like steel.


    How could a vagabond cultivator have such confidence to offend so many people?


    Outside, Zhou Feng had disgraced the Li Clan. Now that the Wang Clan had come to cause trouble, he didn¡¯t give them any face at all.


    Was there something wrong with this person¡¯s brain?


    ¡°What a thief! Your expression doesn¡¯t even change! If you have the guts, say it again!¡±


    Wang Jin felt that he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that there was still a trace of rationality left in his mind, he would probably have made a move right here.


    A Soul Altar cultivator! Moreover, he was a vagabond cultivator!


    Did Zhou Feng really think that Wang Jin wouldn¡¯t dare to make a move against him on the Heavenly Star Terrace right now?


    Wang Jin had already decided that as long as Zhou Feng dared to say it again, he would make a move right away.


    Even if he were to be punished by the City Lord, he would make Zhou Feng pay the price.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at Wang Jin but didn¡¯t say anything.


    But the look in his eyes said it all. He looked at Wang Jin as if he was looking at a retard.


    He had already said it twice. Why did this person keep asking questions?


    He didn¡¯t have time to waste with Wang Jin and play this kind of question-and-answer game.


    At present, Zhou Feng only wanted to know where to find Malevolent Earth Qi and cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Just like that, Wang Jin¡¯s anger was soaring to the sky, his eyes staring at Zhou Feng.


    Behind him, the other members of the Wang Clan were also staring at Zhou Feng.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng had a numb look on his face and had no intention of paying any attention to Wang Jin.


    The situation instantly turned awkward.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any reaction at all. This caused Wang Jin to be at a loss as to what to do.


    Directly make a move? Making a move in the Heavenly Star Terrace required a lot of courage.


    Furthermore, the Wang Clan¡¯s current situation wasn¡¯t too good.


    Their days would definitely be even more miserable if they offended the City Lord.


    However, Wang Jin would become a joke if they didn¡¯t do anything.


    ¡®How did things turn out like this!?¡¯


    When Wang Jin had rushed in to question Zhou Feng, he didn¡¯t expect things to turn out like this.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was completely different from that of ordinary people.


    The longer this dragged on, the more ridiculous Wang Jin and the others became.


    ¡°Malevolent Earth Qi? I think I know about it!¡±


    Just when the atmosphere was extremely awkward, someone finally broke the deadlock.


    This crisp and melodious voice belonged to Li Rong!


    Li Rong slowly walked into the hall.


    There were a few other women beside her. These women were all extremely beautiful and had extraordinary temperaments.


    When standing together with Li Rong, they gave off a feeling of a hundred flowers competing for beauty.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that the few women beside Li Rong had their gazes fixed on him the moment they entered the hall.


    It felt as if they were scrutinizing him.


    However, Zhou Feng overlooked these details. His mind was filled with the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    ¡°Oh? I wonder if we can talk about it in detail?¡±


    ¡°Of course!¡±


    Li Rong seemed to be a little surprised. She had not expected Zhou Feng to take the initiative to invite her.


    However, this also proved what her aunt had said. Indeed, Zhou Feng¡¯s personality was like this. Only things that interested him could attract his attention.


    Li Rong secretly cheered herself on. She had to maintain her current state and not be discouraged.


    There were quite a few small private rooms on the Heavenly Star Terrace. It was convenient for both sides to have some private conversations.


    ¡°Wait! I don¡¯t agree!¡±


    Zhao Baihu, who had been following behind Li Rong the whole time, saw that Zhou Feng and Li Rong wanted to be alone in the same room and instantly became anxious..

 Chapter 196 - Heavenly Star Mystic Realm

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Li Rong glared at the anxious Zhao Baihu.


    He instantly withered and looked dejected.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng and Li Rong walked into a private room.


    Throughout the entire process, Wang Jin and the others were ignored.


    Wang Jin, who had previously said some harsh words, felt that countless eyes were staring at him now.


    ¡°What is this?¡±


    At that moment, Wang Jin was so depressed that he almost vomited blood.


    A vagabond cultivator actually ignored him! Moreover, he really didn¡¯t have the courage to make a move just now.


    ¡°I¡­ I¡­ ¡°


    Under the situation where his mind was unsettled, the Spiritual Qi in Wang Jin¡¯s body started to riot uncontrollably.


    ¡­


    On the other side, Zhou Feng and Li Rong were currently alone in a private room.


    ¡°May I ask if you can tell me about the Malevolent Earth Qi?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Li Rong, who was frozen in place.


    Compared to before, Li Rong seemed to have changed a little. At least, she didn¡¯t have the silly and sweet temperament from before.


    Now, she seemed more capable.


    ¡°Oh!¡±


    After hearing his words, Li Rong looked as if she had woken up from a dream.


    ¡°Malevolent Earth Qi! It was once found on our clan¡¯s Spirit Stone mine!¡±


    Li Rong shared the information about the Malevolent Earth Qi in a straight line.


    Throughout the entire process, she kept her head lowered.


    Ever since she was young, Li Rong had never been so close to a man, especially when it came to the scent that Zhou Feng was emitting.


    It was inexplicably attractive, which made Li Rong a little shy.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation of the Human Emperor Scripture had increased his charm, and coupled with the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart Li Rong found him irresistible.


    That was especially so when they were so close together.


    ¡°But even I might not be able to get close to the Spirit Stone Vein! So¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng did not even need to think about the Malevolent Earth Qi in the Li Clan¡¯s Spirit Stone Vein.


    That was because Li experts were guarding it at all times.


    Even Li Rong might not be able to enter.


    But apart from her clan¡¯s Spirit Stone Vein, Li Rong also knew of a place that had Malevolent Earth Qi.


    That was the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm. Strictly speaking, this Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was related to the Heavenly Star Gathering here.


    The Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was a mystic realm within the Heavenly Star City, and the City Lord controlled it.


    This Heavenly Star Mystic Realm would open every once in a while, and only cultivators below the Divine Ability realm could enter it.


    Of course, this was not the mystic realm¡¯s restriction but rather the City Lord¡¯s rule.


    This Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was not called the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm in the beginning.


    The first to discover this mystic realm was the City Lord of Heavenly Star City.


    It was also by relying on the resources of this mystic realm that the Heavenly Star Patriarch had broken through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Most of the good things inside had long been plundered clean.


    Now, rather than calling this Heavenly Star Mystic Realm a mystic realm, it was more like a place to temper oneself.


    Every once in a while, the City Lord would allow a group of people to enter the Heavenly Star Secret Realm for training.


    Zhou Feng found long-winded words tiresome, so he asked directly, ¡°In other words, the Heavenly Star Secret Realm has Malevolent Earth Qi?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. The Heavenly Star Secret Realm¡¯s environment resembles that of ancient times, so some places have Malevolent Earth Qi.¡±


    Li Rong was no longer as nervous as she was at the beginning.


    ¡°What are the conditions to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm?¡± he directly asked the key point.


    ¡°Outstanding performance in the Heavenly Star Gathering, or rather, every large clan has a quota!¡±


    In the face of Zhou Feng¡¯s questioning, Li Rong was like an obedient baby, saying whatever was on her mind.


    If one wanted to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm, the easiest way was to become a disciple of a large clan.


    For example, a large clan like the Li Clan had a fixed quota.


    Other than that, they had to appear in the Heavenly Star Gatherings and get the attention of the City Lord¡¯s faction.


    After that, they could enter the Heavenly Star Secret Realm by joining the City Lord¡¯s faction.


    In any case, if a vagabond cultivator wanted to enter the Heavenly Star Secret Realm, other than becoming the disciple of a large clan, they had to join the City Lord¡¯s faction.


    ¡®Join the City Lord¡¯s faction?¡¯


    A thoughtful expression appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    Joining other large clans was basically excluded because even if he was willing, the other large clans would not give him the quota.


    As such, he could only choose to join and become a member of the City Lord¡¯s faction.


    To put it bluntly, apart from the exchange between the various top factions, this Heavenly Star Gathering was also a gathering to discover vagabond cultivator geniuses.


    The purpose was to make it easier for the City Lord¡¯s faction to recruit geniuses.


    As for wanting to enter the Heavenly Star Secret Realm without paying anything? That was impossible!


    The Heavenly Star Secret Realm itself was a scarce cultivation resource. A smelly wandering cultivator like Zhou Feng simply did not have the qualifications to touch it.


    In fact, if it weren¡¯t for Li Rong telling him, he wouldn¡¯t even know the name of the Heavenly Star Secret Realm.


    This was also why the gap between wandering cultivators and cultivators from aristocratic clans was so big.


    This was because these forces had first surrounded all the resources in this world and then dedicated them to their own small circle.


    As a vagabond cultivator, unless one had many fortuitous encounters, there was no possibility of surpassing the cultivators from the big clans.


    ¡°It just so happens that I have a spot!¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s voice suddenly became much softer upon looking at Zhou Feng, who was frowning slightly.


    Zhou Feng raised his head to look at Li Rong and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the price?¡±


    At that moment, both parties just happened to meet each other¡¯s eyes, and the atmosphere around them seemed to be a little strange.


    A trace of embarrassment crept onto Li Rong¡¯s face, but she still mustered up the courage to look at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°I want you to protect me! I will also enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm!¡±


    That¡¯s right! Li Rong also wanted to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    During this period, Li Rong had finally understood that only with sufficient strength could she control her own life.


    She wanted to live like Zhou Feng and be free and easy, to be able to control her own life at will.


    It was precisely because of this that Li Rong began to work hard in cultivation and slowly changed her personality.


    Other than this, there was another reason.


    That was that she wanted to pursue her love. Even if it was just a moment of impulse, she was still hot-headed.


    Li Rong wanted to give it a try. She had been in a large clan like the Li Clan for more than 20 years. She wanted to do something that went against the rules.


    ¡°No problem!¡±


    Zhou Feng agreed without even frowning upon feeling Li Rong¡¯s burning gaze.


    Zhou Feng could more or less sense Li Rong¡¯s thoughts.


    Although he wasn¡¯t sure what he had that was worthy of a noble lady¡¯s favor, as long as he obtained Malevolent Earth Qi, then all of this wasn¡¯t a problem.


    As long as Li Rong ran into a wall with him a few times, her impulsive emotions should dissipate quite a bit.


    ¡°Oh right, this is for you.¡±


    After thinking for a moment, in order to not owe her a favor, Zhou Feng gave the two top-grade spiritual artifacts that he had gotten from Wang Shu to Li Rong.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t these¡­¡±


    When Li Rong saw the two spiritual artifacts, she was completely stunned.


    ¡°This is the reward for the information regarding the Malevolent Earth Qi. As for protecting you, it¡¯s the reward for that slot!¡± Zhou Feng explained..

 Chapter 197 - Fighting Spirit

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°These things are also a hot potato for me. I¡¯ll give them to you!¡±


    Zhou Feng went straight to the point.


    These two top-grade spiritual artifacts were really a hot potato for him because of the mark left by the Wang Clan.


    He might as well give them to Li Rong directly. After all, with Li Rong¡¯s background, the Wang Clan would definitely not dare to cause trouble for her.


    Secondly, it would be able to pay off some debts of gratitude.


    No matter what, Li Rong had revealed the existence of the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm to him.


    Furthermore, she had given him a spot. This was already a huge favor in itself.


    Zhou Feng felt that he was not someone who did not know how to repay her kindness.


    Therefore, these two top-grade spiritual artifacts could be considered to be offsetting some debts of gratitude.


    As for the rest, he could only slowly repay them later.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Li Rong was stunned for a moment before she kept these two top-grade spiritual artifacts.


    This way, after the two sides had crossed paths, there would definitely be more contact in the future.


    At that time, they could slowly cultivate their feelings.


    Her aunt¡¯s words echoed in Li Rong¡¯s ears at this time.


    That¡¯s right! A large part of why Li Rong had changed so much was Li Manya¡¯s teachings.


    Li Manya was quite familiar with Zhou Feng¡¯s character.


    Such a person was the type who clearly distinguished between gratitude and enmity.


    If one wanted to pursue such a person, they must first establish a connection and then slowly interact.


    After a long time, feelings would be formed.


    For this, Li Rong to change and forcefully suppress her weak character.


    ¡°If there¡¯s nothing else, I¡¯ll leave first. Oh right, this is a token. The Heavenly Star Mystic Realm will open seven days after the Heavenly Star Gathering!¡±


    Li Rong also remembered what her aunt had said. There were times when a woman had to be reserved.


    Thus, Li Rong spoke first without waiting for Zhou Feng to speak.


    At the same time, she took out a piece of warm jade.


    This piece of warm jade did not seem to have any gaudy patterns, giving off a very gentle feeling.


    ¡°Appraising Eye!¡±


    Zhou Feng subconsciously used the Appraising Eye to appraise this piece of warm jade in front of him.


    [Crystal Warm Jade: Only produced at the core of the Spirit Stone Vein. It has the effect of assisting in condensing the power of the nascent soul when equipped.]


    [At the same time, it has the function of suppressing external evils and preventing the soul power from clashing.]


    [This Crystal Warm Jade is usually found in a Spirit Stone Vein. There is only a tiny bit of it, and its value is high.]


    This was because it was one of the very few spiritual objects that could assist in condensing a nascent soul.


    Even after breaking through to the Purple Mansion or Divine Ability realm, this spiritual Crystal Warm Jade could assist in the cultivation of the soul.


    The most useful thing was the ability to suppress external evils. Starting from the Purple Mansion realm, almost all of a cultivator¡¯s energy would be focused on cultivating their own soul.


    And during the process of cultivation, the soul was extremely vulnerable to external evils.


    Many people had been attacked by external evils, causing their minds to split.


    This spiritual Crystal Warm Jade was equivalent to putting armor on one¡¯s soul.


    ¡®So valuable!¡¯


    After Zhou Feng understood the preciousness of this piece of warm jade, he hesitated.


    ¡°Take it! What are you waiting for?¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s hands trembled slightly, and she deliberately put on a strange expression.


    ¡°Oh!¡±


    Zhou Feng was not an indecisive person, and he instantly made up his mind to take the warm jade.


    As soon as the warm jade entered his hand, a warm feeling spread throughout his entire body.


    And it seemed to be because Li Rong wore it close to her body, and it also carried a hint of body fragrance.


    ¡°Alright! I have something to do, so I¡¯ll leave first.¡±


    After seeing Zhou Feng take the warm jade, Li Rong could not wait any longer and hurriedly left the private room.


    ¡°I owe you a huge favor!¡±


    Zhou Feng wore the warm jade around his neck and did not put it into his storage ring.


    Putting everything else aside, he did not know how to repay the favor he owed Li Rong.


    However, he had finally found a solution to the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    It was better for him to continue improving his strength!


    As long as his strength increased, there would always be a chance to repay Li Rong.


    There were still seven days before the Heavenly Star Secret Realm opened.


    ¡®This Heavenly Star Secret Realm seems to be quite dangerous. In these seven days, I still need to quickly increase my strength¡­¡¯


    Besides Zhou Feng and Li Rong, many genius cultivators would enter the Heavenly Star Secret Realm, and most of them would be at the Purple Mansion realm.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current strength was simply not enough to deal with such a situation.


    Raising his strength was also imminent.


    Now, because his cultivation had stagnated, Zhou Feng no longer had any place to continue raising his strength.


    If he wanted to continue raising his strength, he could only use passive skills.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng opened the skill panel again.


    ¡®Wait! Why is this progress bar increasing?¡¯


    After opening the skill panel, he was completely stunned.


    Because the progress bar on the skill panel was actually increasing.


    Why? Why?


    He didn¡¯t seem to have changed much from before!


    Could it be¡­ that piece of warm jade?


    If there was any change, it would be that Zhou Feng was wearing a piece of Crystal Warm Jade.


    He touched the Crystal Warm Jade and looked at it.


    Sure enough, he noticed that the originally bright Crystal Warm Jade was actually a little dim now.


    It was as if a portion of the Spiritual Qi contained within had been sucked out.


    ¡®This¡­ Crystal Warm Jade can actually speed up the acquisition of passive skills!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not expect this Crystal Warm Jade to actually have such a function.


    The progress bar on the skill panel was already full, and he could once again draw out passive skills.


    Moreover, this Crystal Warm Jade seemed to have the function of gathering Spiritual Qi.


    After it was sucked dry, the warm jade was actually slowly absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    If some time passed, Zhou Feng believed that it would be able to return to its previous state.


    ¡®This thing¡­¡¯


    This kind of natural spiritual item was too powerful!


    Zhou Feng might have never been able to get his hands on such a valuable piece of jade.


    As such, he owed Li Rong even more.


    ¡®Forget it, forget it! Let¡¯s just draw a passive skill first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to think about it anymore. It was more important to draw a new passive skill now.


    The passive skill that he drew previously could be said to be useless.


    Now, he only hoped to draw a useful passive skill.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    Fighting Spirit: After entering combat mode, your strength will increase by 1% every 10 seconds. (The increase cannot exceed 30%)


    ¡®Wow! Is this considered drawing a golden passive!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened. This passive skill was too strong!


    Every 10 seconds, the increase in strength would increase by 1%, and the maximum increase would be 30%.


    In other words, he could increase his strength by 5 minutes without any side effects.


    It was a simple and crude attribute enhancement!


    Zhou Feng had cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, which made his physical body shockingly powerful. His strength had reached a terrifying level a long time ago.


    Now, coupled with this passive skill, he became more and more courageous as he fought.


    He did not dare to imagine who would be able to withstand his punch in the future..

 Chapter 198 - Universal Will

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    It was probably because the passive skill he had drawn last time was a little useless.


    Therefore, the passive skill he drew this time was simply terrifying.


    ¡®This passive skill just makes up for my current weakness!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was satisfied with this new passive skill that made him braver as he fought.


    This was because this passive skill had a percentage bonus. Even if he cultivated to the later realms, it would still be useful.


    It wasn¡¯t like those passive skills from before.


    For example, Zhou Feng¡¯s Old Skin, which he had obtained in the beginning, only added a little defense each time.


    It seemed to be very useful at the beginning, but up until now, it could only be said to be icing on the cake.


    Moreover, it would be diluted as his cultivation continued to rise.


    The passive Fighting Spirit was different. It could raise his strength by 30%.


    Moreover, there was no logic to it. It was a direct bonus without any restrictions. It was simple and crude enough.


    The most important thing was that this passive skill made up for the weakness of Zhou Feng¡¯s attack methods.


    All along, Zhou Feng had a weakness.


    That was that his attack methods were insufficient. If one were to compare the two points of attack and defense, Zhou Feng¡¯s defense was above the norm, but his attack power was completely insufficient.


    His terrifying physical body coupled with his abnormal recovery speed made him an unkillable cockroach.


    However, he did not have any means to defeat the enemy with a single strike.


    This was because Zhou Feng was naturally at a disadvantage as a vagabond cultivator.


    He did not have the opportunity to come into contact with more dao arts, nor did he have the opportunity to obtain more spiritual artifacts.


    Breaking 10,000 spells with a single strike. Truthfully speaking, this method was quite suitable for Zhou Feng.


    In any case, he only needed to focus on improving his physical body.


    The passive Fighting Spirit could be considered to have removed Zhou Feng¡¯s only weakness in a short period.


    ¡®Not enough! I still need more passive skills!¡¯


    Although the passive Fighting Spirit was a great boost, it would be great if he could obtain more passive skills.


    According to what he had deduced, as long as the skill panel absorbed Spiritual Qi, it would be able to speed up the progress of the progress bar.


    Then, if he found some spiritual items rich in Spiritual Qi, would they charge the skill panel?


    Zhou Feng had done this before. He had directly consumed Spirit Stones to push the progress bar forward.


    But now that he thought about it, he needed too many Spirit Stones.


    Moreover, Spirit Stones had other uses, so it was not worth it at all.


    ¡®There seems to be something similar to the treasure appraisal meeting in this Heavenly Star Gathering!¡¯


    With the Appraising Eye, he might be able to pick up scraps?


    ¡°The first Dao discussion is about to begin! Fellow Daoists, please head to the Stargazing Platform!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to leave the private room, a steady voice entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears through the door and window.


    It felt as if someone was speaking beside him.


    And with Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses, he actually couldn¡¯t sense where this voice was coming from.


    It was the first Dao discussion!


    Zhou Feng remembered that Dao discussion was the main purpose of this Heavenly Star Gathering.


    Because this world was very large, and there were all sorts of races, there were all sorts of cultivation paths.


    Before the Purple Mansion realm, perhaps everyone was similar.


    But from the Divine Ability realm onwards, everyone began to choose their own paths.


    For example, sword cultivators, body cultivators, and so on. All sorts of sects represented different cultivation paths.


    In addition to increasing one¡¯s knowledge, discussing the Dao with each other also had great benefits for future cultivation.


    Especially when geniuses from different paths discussed the Dao, different sparks of thought collided with each other, and it was very easy to stimulate inspiration.


    There were even some freaks who were able to create new dao techniques.


    This was also the advantage these large clans had. It was different from vagabond cultivators who could only immerse themselves in bitter cultivation and cultivate behind closed doors.


    Although the vagabond cultivators had always been compared to the disciples of the large clans, it had to be said that the cultivation environment of these vagabond cultivators was too poor!


    ¡®Discussing the Dao?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was extremely interested in the so-called Dao discussion.


    This was because he belonged to the type of vagabond cultivator who relied entirely on himself to cultivate. From the start of his cultivation until now, there was basically no one to guide him.


    He relied entirely on himself to fumble around.


    He didn¡¯t even know if he was cultivating right or not. In any case, he just kept his head down and charged forward.


    He would be very willing if there were a chance for him to learn about the orthodox cultivation system systematically.


    ¡­


    The Stargazing Platform was located on the roof of this small building.


    A special formation here allowed everyone to see the stars beyond the nine heavens.


    At that moment, the small Stargazing Platform was filled with people.


    Almost everyone was at the Purple Mansion realm, and the auras of the people seated at the very front had already far surpassed those of the Purple Mansion realm.


    This was a place where geniuses gathered, and they could not act unruly.


    In this place, everyone was basically well-behaved and didn¡¯t dare to make any noise.


    When Zhou Feng arrived here, the seats in front were all filled with people, and only a few seats were left behind.


    Moreover, this solemn atmosphere made Zhou Feng¡¯s whole body tense up.


    ¡®So strong! Those people in front¡­¡¯


    As soon as he entered, his sharp senses warned him that the people in front were extremely dangerous.


    This was the gathering of geniuses!


    ¡°Alright! Everyone! Almost everyone is here! Then let¡¯s begin today¡¯s Dao discussion!


    ¡°We are fortunate to have an eminent monk from the far west today. Let this eminent monk begin today¡¯s Dao discussion!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not see the monk, but he could clearly hear what this person said.


    ¡®The far west? Eminent monk?¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately captured these two key pieces of information.


    It turned out that there were monks in this world too. He had never met one before, so he had been under the impression that there were no monks in this world!


    In that case, were there also Taoists in this world?


    He stood at the corner of the crowd and restrained his aura as he watched the so-called Dao discussion.


    A handsome monk slowly walked onto the stage.


    This monk looked very young, giving off a feeling that he was only in his teens.


    He had a gentle smile on his face, his teeth were crystal clear, and his bald head seemed to be emitting a faint light.


    ¡°Amitabha!¡±


    The little monk habitually chanted a Buddhist mantra first.


    Immediately, the little monk¡¯s body emitted a faint golden light, and there seemed to be the sound of 10,000 Buddhas chanting beside his ears. A faint fragrance assailed his nostrils.


    This little monk introduced himself, ¡°This little monk¡¯s Dharmic name is Ruo Sheng! I come from the Dharma Rain Temple in the far west!¡±


    At the same time, when he introduced himself, a golden lotus appeared in his hand.


    ¡°What I¡¯m about to tell you today is the method of the power of will of our Dharma Rain Temple!¡±


    As he spoke, all sorts of strange phenomena began to appear in the surroundings.


    Ruo Sheng was spouting all sorts of flowery words.


    Moreover, he did not hold back at all and explained the cultivation details of the method of the power of will.


    This was a completely different path from the cultivation method that everyone was currently cultivating.


    At first glance, it sounded very attractive because this power of will was extremely flexible and could do all sorts of things.


    In addition, what Ruo Sheng said was very tempting, so many people in the surroundings immediately became addicted to it.


    ¡®The power of will of all beings? It can be cultivated together with other cultivation methods?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned. He had a feeling that this power of will method was a little strange..

 Chapter 199 - Discuss the Dao? Why Don’t We Fight it out?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know if it was an illusion, but he felt that this monk was bewitching him.


    The power of will that he was talking about seemed to be a huge pit.


    Although external cultivation of the power of will didn¡¯t have any conflict with other cultivation methods, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think that this monk was so kind-hearted.


    Like him, when the others heard this so-called power of will, they all frowned slightly.


    However, no one interrupted him. They basically listened slowly as if they were trying to find some redeeming points.


    ¡°This is the external cultivator¡¯s wheel of will!¡±


    As he spoke, a wheel of light appeared behind Ruo Sheng¡¯s bald head.


    This wheel of light emitted a dazzling but gentle light.


    The moment the wheel of light appeared, a faint chanting sound echoed in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    ¡®This thing is useless to me¡­¡¯


    This was because he had already decided on his future path of cultivation, and it was mainly based on his physical body.


    Judging from Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude, this method of cultivation with the power of will was probably not enough.


    After a short while, Ruo Sheng had finished his speech.


    This moved no one in the audience. All of them had silent expressions on their faces.


    There wasn¡¯t even any feedback from the scene.


    ¡°Then, this humble monk will take his leave!¡±


    Faced with such a situation, Ruo Sheng still looked as if he was bathed in the spring breeze. He didn¡¯t seem to be the least bit depressed.


    Following that, there were all sorts of discussions between different people.


    They basically went up layer by layer, starting from the Body Tempering realm.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s horizons were also broadened. All sorts of different cultivation paths were basically presented one by one.


    Spiritual cultivation with spirit beasts, sword cultivation with one sword, and Dao cultivation with comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth.


    These branches all started from the Purple Mansion realm.


    This was because the Purple Mansion realm meant the condensation of one¡¯s nascent soul. Only by condensing one¡¯s nascent soul would they be qualified to follow the above-mentioned paths.


    No wonder those who discussed Dao were all at the Purple Mansion realm.


    During this process, Zhou Feng had noted down a lot of cultivation knowledge that he wasn¡¯t privy to before.


    Unfortunately, almost no one had mentioned anything about Purple Mansion cultivation knowledge.


    Everyone was exchanging ideas on different cultivation paths.


    In the end, there was a discussion about the principles of dao arts.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t understand this part because he had only been beating around the bush ever since he had started cultivating.


    He had relied on a pair of fists.


    And just when he thought that this Dao discussion would end just like that, Wang Jin suddenly stood on the stage.


    ¡°There¡¯s still a peerless genius present who hasn¡¯t spoken yet! After all, to be able to participate in this Dao discussion with a Soul Altar cultivation, he should have some genuine teaching material!¡±


    As expected, Wang Jin absolutely wouldn¡¯t let Zhou Feng off.


    After all, he and the Wang Clan were already at odds.


    If he didn¡¯t take this opportunity to make things difficult for Zhou Feng, everyone else would think that the Wang Clan was afraid.


    ¡°Soul Altar realm?¡±


    ¡°Peerless genius?¡±


    Quite a few people present followed Wang Jin¡¯s line of sight and looked toward Zhou Feng.


    They discovered that there was actually a Soul Altar cultivator present.


    Facing the gaze of so many Purple Mansion cultivators, Zhou Feng felt an enormous pressure.


    This was especially so for the person sitting in front of him. Those gazes seemed to want to dissect his body.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng tried his best to remain calm. Then, he didn¡¯t say a single word and glanced indifferently at Wang Jin.


    There was no reaction, nor did he counterattack!


    When facing everyone¡¯s gazes, his expression was the same as usual.


    After a while, most of the people withdrew their gazes.


    Now, it was Wang Jin¡¯s turn to be embarrassed. Everyone wanted to see how Wang Jin would perform.


    Zhou Feng had made his stance clear. What would Wang Jin do now?


    ¡°You¡­ What? You don¡¯t dare to speak? Or are you saying that you¡¯re not worthy?¡±


    Wang Jin also received a lot of gazes. That huge pressure made Wang Jin continue to target Zhou Feng.


    How could this person be so calm? Shouldn¡¯t he be able to retort in such a situation?


    Wang Jin really couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng without the latter saying a single word.


    This was because many of the people present didn¡¯t even know Zhou Feng, a mere Soul Altar cultivator.


    There was no need to pay any attention to him. Compared to those grudges and squabbles, the people present were clearly more willing to hear some novel cultivation viewpoints.


    Wang Jin chose this time to provoke Zhou Feng.


    Originally, he wanted to embarrass Zhou Feng. How could a mere Soul Altar cultivator have the courage to squeeze into a gathering of Purple Mansion cultivators?


    But Zhou Feng¡¯s calm and collected appearance directly dispelled Wang Jin¡¯s thoughts.


    ¡®I just won¡¯t say anything! You can call me whatever you want. I¡¯ll just watch you make a fool of yourself.¡¯


    ¡°¡­¡±


    There was a moment of silence.


    Zhou Feng was still the same as before. This time, Wang Jin was embarrassed.


    Wang Jin would definitely leave the stage dejectedly according to the normal plot.


    But at this moment, someone spoke up.


    ¡°This humble monk is also very curious about this benefactor! I wonder if this benefactor can open his mouth!¡±


    Ruo Sheng had a smile on his face as he looked at Zhou Feng. Furthermore, he revealed a standard smile of eight teeth.


    He was different from Wang Jin. Although not everyone liked Ruo Sheng¡¯s style, they had to admit that he was powerful.


    Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have been invited here to discuss the Dao.


    When Ruo Sheng opened his mouth, it instantly aroused the curiosity of many people.


    How could a mere Soul Altar cultivator make Ruo Sheng open his mouth?


    ¡®Monk Ruo Sheng? When did I offend this monk?¡¯ Zhou Feng muttered in his heart.


    Previously, if it was just Wang Jin alone, then he could have kept silent.


    But now that Ruo Sheng had spoken, it would be as if he was not giving face to everyone present if he still kept silent.


    What made Zhou Feng curious was when he had attracted this monk¡¯s attention.


    If he remembered correctly, this was his first time seeing Ruo Sheng!


    ¡°I used a random cultivation technique to reach this level. If you really want to discuss the Dao, why don¡¯t we let our fists speak?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes turned sharp, and he didn¡¯t conceal his intention to target Wang Jin at all.


    He wasn¡¯t good at discussing the Dao. Since this Wang Jin was deliberately targeting him, then he would just talk it out in a fight.


    It just so happened that he had just gained a new passive skill, an abnormal one at that.


    Zhou Feng could test it out and increase his strength by 30%. What kind of experience would that be like?


    As for this monk, he memorized him.


    He had targeted him for no reason, and this had to be written down in his small notebook of grudges.


    ¡°Oh! That¡¯s right, a verbal discussion of Dao is still lacking in meaning after all!¡±


    After hearing his words, a deep voice rang out from all around.


    ¡°Everyone, don¡¯t resist! This old man has brought all of you here to discuss and showcase your fighting skills!¡±


    As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Feng felt a huge pulling force.


    He suppressed the thought of resisting.


    In the next second, everyone arrived at an arena.


    There was no one around them. It was as if they had arrived in an alternate dimension.


    ¡®What kind of trick is this!?¡¯

 Chapter 200 - Terrifying Innate Divine Ability

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®This is definitely the technique of a Divine Ability cultivator!¡¯


    Looking at the surrounding environment, Zhou Feng felt that this wasn¡¯t a technique that a Purple Mansion cultivator could use.


    This required one to be at least in the Divine Ability realm.


    Could a Divine Ability cultivator be able to do this?


    He had directly pulled them into another space.


    ¡°Good kid! Don¡¯t tell me you think I¡¯m that trash, Wang Shu!


    ¡°That good-for-nothing wasted the clan¡¯s foundation, and in the end, he even lost the clan¡¯s ancestral spiritual weapon! It¡¯s simply a complete disgrace to the Wang Clan!


    ¡°But I¡¯m different from Wang Shu!¡±


    After being slightly dazed for a moment, Wang Jin¡¯s anger instantly surged into his heart.


    Because this Zhou Feng was simply too arrogant.


    Could it be that he thought that just because a Soul Altar cultivator killed a pseudo-Purple Mansion cultivator who had yet to unlock his innate divine ability, he would be able to challenge him?


    He had relied on his own strength to break through.


    Moreover, he had unlocked an innate divine ability.


    ¡®A vagabond Soul Altar cultivator was only a vagabond Soul Altar cultivator!¡¯ Wang Jin frantically muttered in his heart.


    This mere Soul Altar cultivator in front of him had actually reduced the Wang Clan to such a state. This was simply a disgrace.


    ¡®After I finish off this person, the Wang Clan shouldn¡¯t find trouble with me for the time being, right?¡¯


    Zhou Feng ignored Wang Jin¡¯s threatening words.


    He was pondering whether he could kill Wang Jin.


    The Wang Clan shouldn¡¯t find trouble with him for the time being, so he could use this time to improve himself.


    ¡°You can use your own methods to your heart¡¯s content. You don¡¯t have to worry about injuries! This old man will decide based on the situation!¡±


    Before the two sides started fighting, that voice sounded once again.


    The general meaning was to tell both sides not to hold back and that he would stop them before anything happened.


    ¡°Between a Soul Altar cultivator and a Purple Mansion cultivator that has unlocked their innate divine ability, who do you think will win?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this answer obvious?¡±


    ¡°Unless there¡¯s some special technique, I don¡¯t think that a Soul Altar cultivator can win against a Purple Mansion cultivator!¡±


    ¡°However, there might be an accident. Otherwise, that monk wouldn¡¯t have suddenly intervened!¡±


    Quite a few people below also began to discuss in low voices.


    A Soul Altar cultivator versus a Purple Mansion cultivator. No matter how one looked at it, this battle was one-sided. However, because of Ruo Sheng¡¯s sudden words earlier, quite a few people had a glimmer of hope for Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Hmph! Today, I¡¯ll let you see what a gap is!¡±


    The unknown fire in Wang Jin¡¯s heart instantly ignited upon seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s expressionless face.


    When Zhou Feng was beaten to the ground, he could no longer maintain such an expression.


    ¡°Battle Soul! Show!¡±


    Wang Jin roared angrily and activated his innate divine ability.


    A boundless figure appeared behind Wang Jin.


    The figure¡¯s appearance couldn¡¯t be seen clearly. His facial features were blurred, but the armor on his body and the long spear in his hand were extremely familiar.


    Zhou Feng was very familiar with it because it looked like it held the two spiritual weapons he had seized from Wang Shu.


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­¡±


    That figure gave Zhou Feng a huge impact¡ªdesolation and battle intent.


    All kinds of auras mixed together, giving Zhou Feng a feeling.


    Right now, he wasn¡¯t facing Wang Jin but a warrior from ancient times.


    This was Wang Jin¡¯s innate divine ability, or rather, the entire Wang Clan¡¯s innate divine ability.


    As long as one had the Wang Clan¡¯s bloodline and relied on their strength to break through to the Purple Mansion realm, they would definitely unlock this innate divine ability.


    The name of this innate divine ability was Battle Soul.


    Once it was activated, it would be able to project the Wang ancestor into this world.


    In addition, as generations of bloodlines were purified, this innate divine ability would become more and more powerful, and its consumption would become smaller and smaller.


    In this world, why had those ancient clans been passed down until now?


    That was because bloodlines were truly passed down from generation to generation.


    As long as every generation had a Purple Mansion cultivator, they would be able to activate the power within their bloodlines, and the power contained within their bloodlines would be able to be preserved.


    Even when their cultivation reached a certain level¡­


    They would be able to carve their own imprint into their bloodlines.


    Simply put, some cultivators would be able to carve things into their DNA directly.


    This was different from what Zhou Feng had previously thought.


    According to normal logic, the bloodline of the fantasy world would weaken from generation to generation.


    However, under certain circumstances, the bloodline would strengthen from generation to generation in this world.


    They even knew that at the end, when the bloodline was purified to the limit, even the race might change.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Wang Jin used all his strength to activate the battle soul behind him, wanting to kill Zhou Feng in one hit.


    A large amount of soul power had been consumed.


    The battle soul behind Wang Jin slowly raised the long spear in his hand.


    A tragic and bloody aura assaulted Zhou Feng¡¯s face. It was as if Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body had been locked down.


    This feeling was as if his entire body had been placed in a quagmire. That sluggish feeling made Zhou Feng feel extremely uncomfortable.


    ¡®Is this the true strength of a Purple Mansion cultivator?¡¯


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had truly experienced the true strength of a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    This was a world of difference from the Wang Shu he had faced previously.


    If he didn¡¯t unleash his full power, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able even to move his fingers.


    Blood-Burning Technique! Spiritual Attachment Art!


    Without any hesitation, Zhou Feng began his usual crazy battle style.


    The first thing he did was burn his Blood Qi, forcefully absorbing Spiritual Qi into his body to increase the strength of his body.


    The massive amount of Spiritual Qi was burned, and Zhou Feng once again transformed into a ray of sun, emitting light, and heat.


    ¡°Eh? Is that all? An extremely low-grade dao art! Burning one¡¯s own Blood Qi in exchange for a short burst of power!¡±


    ¡°Did he use two self-harming arts at the same time? Forcefully binding the Spiritual Qi onto his body?¡±


    ¡°Just this? I heard that this person had previously killed a Purple Mansion cultivator while in the Soul Altar realm!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s actions, most of the people slightly frowned.


    Originally, everyone thought that Zhou Feng would use some sort of exquisite dao art.


    After all, they had heard of Zhou Feng¡¯s previous battle achievements.


    To be able to kill a low-level Purple Mansion cultivator with Soul Altar cultivation, this definitely relied on an exquisite dao art or technique.


    But now, it seemed that the dao art that Zhou Feng used was truly inferior.


    Not only did he injure himself, but the efficiency of his self-injury wasn¡¯t very good either.


    With just these two inferior dao arts, he was able to kill a Purple Mansion disciple?


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! You don¡¯t even have a nascent soul! There¡¯s no way you can block this attack of mine!¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s dying struggle, Wang Jin immediately folded his hands and looked down at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    Because that battle soul was locked onto by his soul power, Zhou Feng was unable to dodge.


    Zhou Feng was instantly smashed onto the stage, and that power caused quite a bit of shock.


    However, the next scene caused everyone¡¯s gazes to change slightly.


    Zhou Feng, who had endured the terrifying attack of the battle soul, actually didn¡¯t seem to be in a bad condition.


    His shattered body was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had actually launched a counterattack!


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell! Appear!¡±


    The pressure Zhou Feng was facing this time was many times stronger than before, so the first thing he did was summon the Purple Jade Bell!

 Chapter 201 - Breaking His Own Hand with One Punch

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The moment the Purple Jade Bell appeared, Zhou Feng immediately felt his whole body relax.


    The feeling of his whole body slowing down immediately disappeared.


    The combat soul summoned by Wang Jin¡¯s innate divine ability had too great a restriction on him.


    Before the Purple Jade Bell appeared, Zhou Feng even felt that the surrounding air had become his opponent¡¯s.


    Fortunately, the appearance of the Purple Jade Bell had completely activated the power of the Spiritual Qi.


    After so many days, it was no longer as difficult for Zhou Feng to activate the Purple Jade Bell.


    It could even be said that he could use it freely, as the Purple Jade Bell floated slightly above his head.


    ¡°Impossible! There¡¯s something wrong with this person¡¯s body! If that body had clearly collapsed just now!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! That body collapsed for a very short period, but the recovery speed is even faster!¡±


    ¡°And that spiritual artifact is a little peculiar!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At first, everyone had been under the impression that Zhou Feng was bound to lose, but they didn¡¯t expect that an accident would happen.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body caused many people to exclaim in surprise.


    Such a body seemed to be something that only body-refining cultivators could possess!


    But a vagabond cultivator dared to walk the path of body cultivation? He was extraordinarily bold!


    Different from the shocked expressions of the others, Ruo Sheng¡¯s expression was filled with solemnity.


    ¡°Spiritual artifact!? Humph! Even if you have a spiritual artifact in your hand, killing you would only be a matter of raising my hand!¡±


    Wang Jin lightly waved his palm.


    At the same time, the blurry figure behind him also waved his palm. This palm could be said to cover the sky and earth!


    Murderous aura! Military aura!


    The two palms intertwined and entangled with each other. This palm strike was like a huge wave that pounced toward Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng gnashed his teeth and crossed his hands in front of his chest. At the same time, he activated the Purple Jade Bell, intending to take this palm strike head-on.


    Boom!


    The huge palm strike slammed Zhou Feng onto the ground.


    Because there was not a single speck of dust in this space, everyone could clearly see Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body in the arena.


    Many parts of his body started to twist.


    ¡°Hmph! That¡¯s all!¡±


    Seeing this, Wang Jin finally heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.


    Just now, he was still a little apprehensive because Zhou Feng had actually taken his attack head-on and was actually completely fine.


    There was even a supreme-grade defensive spiritual artifact.


    Wang Jin admitted that he was a little flustered at that moment, worried that he had encountered a monster who pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger.


    He may have challenged someone of a higher level!


    It wasn¡¯t until now that Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was twisted and smashed into the arena that Wang Jin finally relaxed.


    Now, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t get up, right?


    ¡®It hurts! I can be considered to have left the battle state now!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt a sharp pain all over his body. However, after only three seconds, the injuries all over his body started to recover at a rapid speed.


    He had forcefully withstood that terrifying attack!


    Old Skin, Tough Skin, Reinforced Iron Bones, and Bone Coating, these few passive defensive skills had more than half canceled out that terrifying attack just now.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t move now because he wanted to trigger the passive Tenacious Heart.


    As long as he was out of combat mode, then he could rely on the Tenacious Heart to recover from his injuries.


    As for the exaggerated distortion of his body, it was nothing in his eyes.


    Kacha! Kacha!


    With a series of crackling sounds, Zhou Feng¡¯s bones had all been restored.


    Then, he stood up in a daze.


    ¡°He recovered again! Impossible! Such a serious injury!¡±


    ¡°Special bloodline? And a special physique?¡±


    ¡°Interesting! Really interesting! As expected, to be invited by the Vice City Lord, even Soul Altar cultivators are not ordinary people!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng stand up again and that his aura didn¡¯t weaken at all, many people revealed interesting smiles on their faces.


    If this continued, the battle between Zhou Feng and Wang Jin shouldn¡¯t end so easily.


    If Wang Jin was defeated in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands¡­ then the Wang Clan would probably completely decline.


    A Soul Altar cultivator killing two Purple Mansion cultivators consecutively? How humiliating would that be!?


    ¡°You!¡±


    Wang Jin looked at Zhou Feng, who was still alive and kicking and was also startled.


    This didn¡¯t make sense! How could such injuries recover so quickly?


    Was this a cultivation technique? Or did he possess some kind of spiritual item?


    Although Wang Jin was shocked, he was not afraid. He did not believe that Zhou Feng could continue to recover like this.


    He would fight dozens of times to see if Zhou Feng could still recover.


    Compared to Wang Shu, Wang Jin was much stronger in both strength and mentality.


    ¡°Battle Spirit Possession!¡±


    Wang Jin changed his battle stance.


    The towering figure behind him instantly possessed Wang Jin¡¯s body and turned into a set of battle armor.


    The battle armor design was exactly the same as Wang Shu¡¯s set of battle armor.


    ¡°Come! I want to see how many times you can stand up!¡±


    After the battle spirit possession, Wang Jin stood on the spot and looked at Zhou Feng with contempt, waiting for Zhou Feng to take the initiative to attack.


    The previous few clashes had given Wang Jin great confidence.


    As expected, the Soul Altar realm was the Soul Altar realm, and the person in front of him was not one of those freaks.


    In the current situation, Wang Jin could be said to have the upper hand.


    Moreover, after advancing to the Purple Mansion realm, due to the condensation of the nascent soul, the nascent soul would be in control.


    Whether it was the consumption of Spiritual Qi or soul power, it would be less than that of the Soul Altar realm, and the utilization rate would be even higher.


    Even if Zhou Feng wanted to fight a battle of attrition, then the first one who would not be able to hold on would definitely be Zhou Feng.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say a single word. He only tried his best to burn his Blood Qi.


    He tried his best to make his injuries a little heavier so that he could trigger his injury Conversion.


    At the same time, the passive Fighting Spirit was still accumulating power.


    All kinds of buffs made Zhou Feng¡¯s strength rapidly increase.


    Zhou Feng then threw a punch.


    This punch was direct, without the slightest hint of theatrics.


    However, this punch was like a clap of thunder. When it erupted without any warning, it startled everyone.


    Under such huge pressure, the profound meaning of the Human Emperor Scripture once again appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    That short scripture actually had another kind of artistic conception when it was being read at this moment.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Wang Jin snorted coldly and similarly used his fist to attack.


    Under the support of the battle soul, Wang Jin¡¯s physical body was also extremely terrifying.


    This was because the innate divine ability of the battle soul was initially used for hand-to-hand combat.


    However, when the fists of both parties collided, Wang Jin¡¯s expression changed.


    An abundant and enormous force like a whistling train was crazily pouring into his body.


    Even Zhou Feng himself could not bear this kind of power. His entire arm bent inward, looking very horrifying.


    ¡°How is this possible!?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch sent Wang Jin flying, the latter¡¯s expression one of shock.


    The eruption of power was buffed by the maximum extent of Fighting Spirit that Zhou Feng could burst out.


    He relied on all kinds of explosive skills and self-harming techniques to try his best to increase his own strength.


    After the increase, the more he fought, the more courageous he became. This increased his strength by 30%.


    In this way, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength could explode and could not be calculated by 30% at all..

 Chapter 202 - Head Flying

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After sending Wang Jin flying with one punch, Zhou Feng¡¯s arm fell off like a noodle.


    If it were anyone else, this arm would be considered crippled.


    However, Zhou Feng had the passive Reinforced Iron Bones, so his bones were like steel.


    The current situation was only due to the dislocation of his joints.


    He forcefully straightened his arm, and then the passive Self-Healing Constitution started to heal him. He already started feeling his originally weak arm again.


    From the moment he straightened his arm, it did not take much time to recover.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was the same.


    It was exactly the same as before the battle.


    This was not to say that Zhou Feng did not feel pain, but that he was already used to it. He had been relying on this crazy fighting style back in the Tri-Gu Sect, .


    Up until now, although he felt the pain in his body, it did not affect his peace of mind.


    This was a very strange state.


    Every time he entered a battle, he would be in this strange state.


    A strange color appeared on everyone¡¯s faces.


    Could it be that Zhou Feng wanted to kill Wang Jin?


    But why? How could Zhou Feng do this?


    What he displayed was already clearly seen by everyone.


    It was true that he was a mere vagabond cultivator whose foundation wasn¡¯t solid!


    Moreover, he was in the Soul Altar realm and didn¡¯t have any visualization techniques.


    Yet, he had displayed such monstrous strength.


    To suppress a Purple Mansion cultivator with Soul Altar strength, this was something that only an extremely small number of monstrous geniuses could do.


    What exactly did Zhou Feng have?


    ¡®Damn it! Why is his strength so great!?¡¯


    Wang Jin¡¯s face was pale, and his right hand was slightly lowered. He had been careless with that attack just now.


    However, it would be impossible to defeat him if it was only at this level.


    ¡°Battle Spirit Possession!¡±


    A dense murderous aura rose once more, and Wang Jin¡¯s gaze instantly changed.


    Wang Jin¡¯s eyes revealed a lot of emotions before, but they were so cold now they didn¡¯t betray the slightest emotional fluctuations.


    ¡°Oh? This is the real battle spirit possession? It seems that the Wang Clan¡¯s old ancestor should have surpassed the Avatar realm!¡±


    ¡°Now it is the old ancestor of the Wang Clan who controls Wang Jin¡¯s body!¡±


    ¡°I wonder how this young Soul Altar friend will deal with it.¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s decisive!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At that moment, many spectators saw through Wang Jin¡¯s condition at a glance.


    He had completely given up on his consciousness and allowed the battle soul to control his own body.


    This meant that Zhou Feng was going to fight an old monster whose strength surpassed that of the Divine Ability realm.


    Of course, it was going to be a battle with the shadow of this old monster.


    After all, it was an extremely dangerous thing to let the battle soul completely control one¡¯s own body.


    This was because it was very easy to make one¡¯s mind go crazy, and it could even affect one¡¯s soul. The Wang Clan would not use this move unless it were absolutely necessary.


    However, Wang Jin did not want to drag this on any longer. He only wanted to kill the monster in front of him as soon as possible.


    This was the only way to preserve the Wang Clan¡¯s reputation.


    Even if he defeated Zhou Feng, this would be shameful enough if this dragged on.


    Moreover, this person in front of him was evil. It would be better to directly invite the ancestor to take over and solve this troublesome matter.


    As for the consequences? Zhou Feng was already so reckless when he fought.


    Could it be that he, Wang Jin, was the kind of person who cherished his own life?


    ¡®You dare to play with me! I¡¯ll play with you to the end!¡¯


    With this thought in mind, Wang Jin didn¡¯t say a word and burned the most fundamental bloodline in his body.


    Wang Jin, possessed by the old monster, lowered his gaze slightly and didn¡¯t say a word.


    He took a big step forward!


    His vision blurred, and he arrived in front of Zhou Feng. His two fingers formed into sword fingers and replaced the long spear with sword fingers. He just stabbed forward.


    Zhou Feng only felt the skin all over his body prickling.


    ¡®Danger!¡¯


    His Battle Instinct warned him crazily that he couldn¡¯t dodge this move!


    ¡®Can¡¯t dodge? If I can¡¯t dodge, then I won¡¯t dodge!¡¯


    A hint of lust flashed across Zhou Feng¡¯s face. He moved his body forward and used a single hand to raise the sky!


    That finger was like a real spearhead. Instantly, a hole appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s left shoulder.


    Fortunately, he managed to dodge in time, or else there would have been a hole in his chest.


    However, Wang Jin was no better. Zhou Feng had punched his head.


    Wang Jin did not make a single sound. Instead, he continued to attack with extreme calmness.


    That kind of battle instinct was already engraved in his bloodline.


    Unlike Wang Jin¡¯s powerful attack, the possessed Wang Jin did not make a single sound in his every move.


    His every move did not have the slightest bit of smoke and fire. The extremely powerful energy was all condensed into one point.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng also did not say a word. He relied on his extremely powerful senses and his battle instincts to be on the passive side.


    He fought with the Wang Clan¡¯s old ancestor thousands of years apart.


    For a moment, the scene seemed to have become a silent movie. There was almost no sound.


    However, the arena became increasingly intense.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was almost full of holes. The fresh blood that flowed out had directly converged into a small river.


    Wang Jin¡¯s entire head had swelled up because Zhou Feng had been staring at Wang Jin¡¯s head.


    However, anyone with discerning eyes could see that Zhou Feng had always been at a disadvantage.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was getting paler and paler. His aura was so weak that it was almost impossible to feel.


    However, his fists were getting heavier and heavier, and his eyes were getting brighter and brighter.


    An invisible power was slowly growing on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Is this a phenomenon? How is this possible!?¡±


    ¡°Cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture and then forming a phenomenon in the middle of a battle?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When they sensed that an aura was growing on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, the people who had been extremely calm all this time were dumbfounded.


    Everyone present was naturally clear about the cultivation technique that Zhou Feng cultivated.


    It could be said that the only admirable thing about Zhou Feng was that he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Although the Human Emperor Scripture was outdated and the difficulty of cultivating it was extremely high, it was still the cultivation technique of the former Human Emperor.


    It was not uncommon to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture, and it was not uncommon to succeed in cultivating it.


    However, cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture and being able to condense a phenomenon was an amazing thing.


    A phenomenon condensed from cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture would definitely be a Human Emperor phenomenon.


    Once it succeeded, it would be equivalent to the current Human Emperor!


    However, there was no longer a need for a Human Emperor in this era.


    What let everyone breathe a sigh of relief was that the aura on Zhou Feng¡¯s body had stopped, and he no longer had the crazily rising aura from before.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s fists became gold. He waved his fists, leaving behind countless afterimages.


    Almost all of the Blood Qi in his body had gathered on his fists.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    After fighting for so long, Zhou Feng finally squeezed out a word.


    The golden fists landed on Wang Jin¡¯s head.


    Wang Jin¡¯s head was sent flying in an instant and fell onto the arena, rolling a few times.


    When Wang Jin¡¯s head fell off, he also woke up in an instant and only felt the world spinning..

 Chapter 203 - Unexpectedly Calm

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Why?¡±


    There was only one question in Wang Jin¡¯s mind, and that was why he had lost.


    Given his Purple Mansion strength, coupled with the possession of the battle soul, it would be very difficult for Zhou Feng to kill Wang Jin.


    Even cultivators of the same level would find it very difficult to kill him.


    Why? Why was this the case?


    Wang Jin didn¡¯t have any memories because the battle soul possessed him.


    When he regained consciousness, his head was sent flying.


    Why did no one stop him? To be honest, even though Wang Jin had thought that he would lose, he had never thought that he would die here.


    Putting everything else aside, the organizer of the Heavenly Star Gathering was Vice City Lord.


    He would not just watch him die!


    However, the person behind the scenes hadn¡¯t stopped Zhou Feng.


    In addition, Wang Jin¡¯s Dao Protector couldn¡¯t enter this place.


    If Zhou Feng was outside, it wouldn¡¯t be easy to kill Wang Jin because Dao Protectors were following him.


    But it was useless to say anything now.


    Wang Jin could only sink into endless darkness with endless questions.


    The instant he killed Wang Jin, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body seemed to have been drained.


    Without a doubt, this was his most difficult battle in a long time.


    All sorts of passive and perfect triggers, coupled with that god-like state, had allowed Zhou Feng to accomplish yet another heroic feat. A Soul Altar cultivator had killed a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    Moreover, it was a Purple Mansion cultivator who had activated his innate divine ability. There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of moisture in it.


    ¡°Heavenly Star! Appear!¡±


    That ethereal voice suddenly rang out.


    A streak of starlight descended from the sky, directly shining onto Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The instant he was struck by this streak of starlight, Zhou Feng felt his entire body¡¯s Blood Qi, Spiritual Qi, and soul power rapidly recover.


    His passive Tenacious Heart was also triggered. Then, everyone once again witnessed a startling scene.


    Zhou Feng, who was already half-dead, had a pale and ruddy complexion. It only took him a dozen or so seconds to recover.


    Later on, his recovery speed became faster and faster.


    Zhou Feng had returned to his peak condition in the blink of an eye.


    Although the starlight had the effect of nourishing one¡¯s body, this speed was a bit too terrifying!


    ¡°How strange! Could it really be a special constitution?¡±


    ¡°Right! But unfortunately, the cultivation level is too low! If he broke through to the Purple Mansion realm, he might be able to compete with the others!¡±


    ¡°This Dao discussion isn¡¯t bad. I actually encountered such an interesting event!¡±


    ¡°The Wang Clan is going to be unlucky!¡±


    The crowd was once again shocked by Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery speed.


    That battle just now had caused the people present to completely acknowledge Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng could be considered to have squeezed into this small circle.


    Perhaps Zhou Feng would have the right to participate in some events in the future.


    ¡®Not bad!¡¯


    After Zhou Feng¡¯s condition recovered to its peak, he jumped off the arena in an extremely low-key manner.


    Why had he been in that state earlier? Why had he been able to erupt with such terrifying strength?


    After jumping off the arena, Zhou Feng began to think about the mysterious state he had just entered.


    This seemed to be brought about by cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Every time he was pushed to his limit, the hidden potential in his body would be stimulated.


    From there, he would enter a mysterious state, making him feel as if he had the help of God.


    As expected of a top-cultivation technique, it was actually so powerful.


    Unfortunately, in order to kill Wang Jin, he had basically used up all of his trump cards.


    Once his opponent gathered information about him, it would be troublesome to fight later.


    Wang Jin had been defeated partly because he was not familiar with Zhou Feng.


    If he had been prepared, Zhou Feng might not have been able to win.


    But no matter what, he had solved another problem.


    And the passive Soul Harvesting had been triggered again.


    ¡®Soul power +1!¡¯


    The skill panel showed that the passive Soul Harvesting had just been triggered.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power had once again strengthened a little.


    As time passed, his soul power was gradually becoming more and more vigorous.


    Although it wasn¡¯t as strong as the disciples of the big clans who possessed the visualization technique, it was still much stronger than the other vagabond cultivators.


    ¡®What I still need to know now is why that monk is targeting me!¡¯


    It was obvious that it was his first time meeting Ruo Sheng.


    Zhou Feng looked at the position where Ruo Sheng was at and realized that the latter was still like a spring breeze.


    It seemed as if he was seriously listening to the others.


    After the battle ended, the Dao discussion continued.


    Not many people paid attention to him, and no one asked him to explain why his injuries could recover so quickly.


    There was no counter-attack as expected.


    The people present did not seem to want to waste any time. They all wanted to see and learn more things.


    And all of this was naturally because Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was not enough. He had not started his own path of cultivation.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance just now had surprised many people.


    But everyone guessed that he had probably cultivated a special technique or had a special constitution.


    This kind of thing basically had no reference value. In addition, Zhou Feng¡¯s realm was too low.


    Perhaps after he broke through to the Purple Mansion realm, someone would invite him to discuss the Dao and spar with him.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care about this either. Originally, he had been under the impression that killing Wang Jin above his cultivation level would cause even more trouble.


    If it were like this, then that would be for the best.


    This was slightly different from what Zhou Feng had imagined. After all, the fantasy novels he had read before were basically filled with all sorts of contradictions along the way.


    And now, the situation was that these geniuses who participated in the Heavenly Star Gathering wouldn¡¯t care about a Soul Altar cultivator at all. If they had the time, they might as well pay attention to themselves.


    Cultivation! Enlightenment! This was what these people should do.


    Just like this, the curtain of this Dao discussion slowly came down.


    Zhou Feng and the others were brought to the Heavenly Star Terrace once again.


    Then, everyone dispersed one by one.


    Ruo Sheng was also the first to disappear. Zhou Feng, who originally wanted to observe him, could only plan to return when he saw this.


    He also did not plan to participate in the follow-up segments of the Heavenly Star Gathering.


    This was because it was no longer of any use to him.


    Now that he already knew where the Malevolent Earth Qi was, he only needed to wait for the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm to open.


    While he was waiting, he planned to improve himself.


    Zhou Feng did not forget that he was not the only one who would enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    Li Rong would enter with him, and he had to ensure her safety.


    He could not guarantee Li Rong¡¯s safety with his current strength.


    ¡®Also, with Wang Jin¡¯s death, the Wang Clan will definitely go crazy! Qian Shang and Qian Qianqian might be implicated¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng had already anticipated that once the news of Wang Jin¡¯s death spread out. the Wang Clan would definitely go crazy. Perhaps they would use all sorts of sinister methods.


    For example, they would target Zhou Feng¡¯s subordinates. If they didn¡¯t do so, others would think that the Wang Clan was so weak they couldn¡¯t even deal with a vagabond cultivator.


    Thus, in order to keep the Wang Clan quiet for a while, Zhou felt he had to do something..

 Chapter 204 - Madness

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and took Wang Jin¡¯s head out of his storage ring.


    He was the one who had killed Wang Jin, so all of Wang Jin¡¯s things naturally belonged to him.


    This included the entire corpse. This was also considered an unspoken rule.


    In order to force the Wang Clan to stop pestering him temporarily, his plan was to take Wang Jin¡¯s head and parade with it.


    When facing a large clan like the Wang Clan, gentle methods were absolutely ineffective even though they had declined.


    For such a large clan, only a forceful method had a chance of stopping them.


    Although the possibility of angering the Wang Clan by doing so was also very high, it was even possible that it would backfire and cause the Wang Clan to kill Zhou Feng at all costs.


    Nonetheless, he still decided to go with it.


    He and the Wang Clan had become enemies, anyway. Under such circumstances, the two sides had no chance to reconcile.


    No matter what Zhou Feng did, the Wang Clan would eventually think of ways to kill him.


    Since that was the case, what was stopping him from acting fiercely?


    He could use his actions to tell the Wang Clan that they could make a move, but they had to consider the consequences before doing so.


    He was a vagabond Soul Altar cultivator that could kill a Purple Mansion cultivator and had nothing tying him down.


    Once he made a move, the Wang Clan would definitely suffer the corresponding backlash.


    Outside the Heavenly Star Terrace¡­


    There were still people entering and leaving. Many people who weren¡¯t qualified to participate in the Heavenly Star Gathering were making new friends outside the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    They were also taking advantage of this opportunity to sell some treasures in exchange for cultivation resources.


    At the same time, some people were talking about the Heavenly Star Gathering.


    Zhou Feng was also the subject of these people¡¯s discussion. After all, there weren¡¯t many vagabond cultivators who could reject the Li Clan.


    It was said that Zhou Feng had refused to become the Li Clan¡¯s visiting son-in-law and even looked down on the Li Clan¡¯s noble daughter.


    This naturally ignited many people¡¯s gossipy nerves.


    Just what kind of vagabond cultivator was so crazy? He actually didn¡¯t even put the Li Clan in his eyes?


    The Li Clan naturally didn¡¯t pay attention to such remarks.


    No matter how the Li Clan acted or responded, they would be at a disadvantage.


    Was a mere vagabond cultivator worthy of the Li Clan¡¯s attention?


    The Li Clan didn¡¯t even need to say anything. Some people would deal with Zhou Feng and use this to exchange for the Li Clan¡¯s favor.


    Many people¡¯s confidence soared when they heard that Zhou Feng was only in the Soul Altar realm. They all rubbed their fists and rubbed their palms, wanting to find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    After all, he was in the Soul Altar realm. How strong could he be?


    ¡°I heard that the Wang Clan¡¯s genius has already found trouble with Zhou Feng in the Heavenly Star Gathering!¡±


    ¡°Is that so? If that¡¯s the case, will Zhou Feng still be able to walk out?¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s a high probability that he won¡¯t be able to! You have to know that the Dao discussion in the Heavenly Star Gathering includes duels!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Some of the people who received the news already knew that the Wang Clan was planning to make an example out of Zhou Feng.


    This was the beginning of reviving the Wang Clan¡¯s prestige.


    Therefore, there was a high probability that Zhou Feng would not be able to walk out of the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    This also caused some people to be slightly disappointed. They originally thought that they would be able to make a name for themselves by killing Zhou Feng.


    Now, it seemed that they didn¡¯t have the chance to get the Li Clan¡¯s attention.


    ¡°Someone is coming out!¡±


    ¡°That person is¡­ Zhou Feng? Have you seen the portrait? What is he carrying? A ball?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve seen the portrait! That¡¯s Zhou Feng! It¡¯s exactly the same as the portrait!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Those with sharp eyes noticed Zhou Feng at once.


    And then, in the next second, they saw Zhou Feng tossing Wang Jin¡¯s head in the air and slowly walking out.


    His expression was still as calm as before.


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­ a head? A head!?¡±


    ¡°That seems to be Wang Jin¡¯s head!¡±


    ¡°What? Wang Jin? That Purple Mansion genius of the Wang Clan!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After everyone clearly saw what was going on, someone instantly sucked in a breath of cold air. What Zhou Feng was tossing in his hand was Wang Jin¡¯s head!


    The bloodstains looked like they had been dry for a long time.


    What was going on?


    Wasn¡¯t Wang Jin at the Purple Mansion realm? Why had he suddenly died?


    Also, it had been a long time since anyone had died at the Heavenly Star Gathering!


    If the Wang Clan knew about this, they would definitely go crazy.


    Ruthless! This was definitely a ruthless person!


    Zhou Feng may have killed Wang Shu previously, but he had done so because Wang Shu was too weak.


    But this time, he had killed Wang Jin!


    A Soul Altar cultivator killing a Purple Mansion cultivator!?


    This was definitely a rising genius.


    It was just that they didn¡¯t know which faction would pull him over in the end. Originally, the Li Clan should have had the best chances, but it was impossible now.


    ¡°Wait until I break through to the Purple Mansion realm!¡±


    Facing so many people, Zhou Feng opened his mouth.


    After speaking, he threw Wang Jin¡¯s head onto the ground. Then, he opened his storage ring and threw Wang Jin¡¯s corpse out.


    After that, he turned around and left.


    Although he didn¡¯t have any aura on him, everyone around him subconsciously made way for him and watched as he left.


    ¡°Is this the type Little Rong likes?¡±


    Zhao Baihu looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s carefree back, his face somewhat solemn.


    Previously, Zhao Baihu didn¡¯t think that Zhou Feng would be able to become his love rival. However, after the battle between Zhou Feng and Wang Jin and upon seeing that carefree back, Zhao Baihu felt the pressure.


    ¡®Hurry up! Hurry up and break through to the Purple Mansion realm! This way, I¡¯ll be able to take action personally!¡¯


    An illusory white tiger appeared behind Zhao Baihu and suddenly roared angrily.


    Although Zhao Baihu liked Li Rong, with Zhao Baihu¡¯s arrogance, he still disdained to fight against a Soul Altar cultivator.


    Thus, Zhao Baihu was waiting for the moment when Zhou Feng broke through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    This way, he would be able to take action against Zhou Feng openly.


    In this world, strength spoke for itself. Li Rong still didn¡¯t understand, but she would naturally do so after experiencing some things.


    Zhao Baihu wanted Li Rong to understand that only he could protect her in this world.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know that a dog-licking and paranoid person had already set his eyes on him.


    After Zhou Feng left, the surrounding area immediately exploded.


    ¡°Is this real? Is this Wang Jin?¡±


    ¡°Look at the wounds on his body! What kind of battle did he spend so much energy on? Why does Zhou Feng look fine?¡±


    ¡°This is too terrifying! His entire head was sent flying by a punch! And something is protecting Wang Jin¡¯s head!¡±


    ¡°Otherwise, his head would have exploded!¡±


    Looking at the tragic wounds on Wang Jin¡¯s body, quite a few people sucked in a cold breath.


    Just how terrifying was Zhou Feng?


    Just looking at these wounds and the aura that remained on them, one could imagine just how intense this battle was.


    But why did Zhou Feng seem to be completely fine?


    Could it be that Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had already reached such a level? He was able to kill a Purple Mansion expert without any injuries.


    And it wasn¡¯t that kind of low-level Purple Mansion expert, but a genuine Purple Mansion expert who had unlocked his innate divine ability.


    And the words that Zhou Feng had said earlier were clearly implying something.


    When he broke through to the Purple Mansion realm, there would be no need for the Wang Clan to find trouble with him. Zhou Feng would naturally find trouble with the Wang Clan.


    How arrogant!


    If the Wang Clan made a big move, they would probably be looked down upon..

    Simple and crude¡ªit had always been Zhou Feng¡¯s way of handling matters.


    In any case, it was as simple as it was.


    If Zhou Feng wanted the Wang Clan to stop bothering him temporarily, he had to use this explosive method.


    Compared to Zhou Feng being alone, the Wang Clan was too large.


    If Zhou Feng were to go crazy, he would target the other members of the Wang Clan.


    The Wang Clan wouldn¡¯t have much of a solution in a short period.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation was only at the Soul Altar realm, he had already proven that his strength reached the Purple Mansion realm.


    Naturally, there were people in the Wang Clan who could kill Zhou Feng.


    This was because the Purple Mansion realm was also divided into different levels.


    Wang Jin had only just entered the Purple Mansion realm. There was still quite a difference compared to monsters at the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    However, not everyone in the Wang Clan was at the Purple Mansion realm.


    The other members of the Wang Clan also needed to live. There would be a caravan that belonged to the Wang Clan leaving Heavenly Star City every second.


    If Zhou Feng deliberately targeted them, the Wang Clan would probably lose a lot of money.


    They had to find a suitable time and then suddenly attack and crush Zhou Feng to death.


    If something unexpected happened, then the Wang Clan would no longer need to exist.


    Based on the above considerations, there was also pressure to succeed the third time.


    The Wang members only took back Wang Jin¡¯s body.


    Then, they did not say a word and maintained their silence.


    That kind of silent and oppressive atmosphere made many people feel that this was the calm before the storm!


    The Wang Clan would not make a move for the time being, but this did not mean that Zhou Feng could rest in peace.


    Surprisingly, Zhou Feng¡¯s name was already on the Underground Bounty List.


    And then there were those who wanted to flatter the Li Clan¡¯s rotten feet.


    Zhou Feng could feel that a few pairs of eyes were watching him from behind no matter where he went.


    This feeling was extremely uncomfortable. Sometimes, Zhou Feng even wanted to attack.


    But thinking that he hadn¡¯t broken through to the Purple Mansion realm yet and the day to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was not far away, Zhou Feng endured it.


    After returning to his residence, he began to think about how he could continue to increase his strength.


    During his battle with Wang Jin, Zhou Feng understood that the further one progressed in cultivation, the greater the gap between them.


    At present, he didn¡¯t have any advantage on the path of cultivation.


    Moreover, it could be said that the disadvantage was very obvious¡ªthe only thing he could rely on was passive skills.


    Speeding up the acquisition of passive skills¨Cthis old matter was once again on the table.


    ¡°The Crystal Warm Jade on my neck can actually speed up the acquisition of passive skills¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng removed the Crystal Warm Jade from his neck.


    The Crystal Warm Jade was a little dim at the moment. Obviously, it had not recovered from the last time¡¯s absorption from the skill panel.


    However, Zhou Feng could feel that compared to before, the Crystal Warm Jade was a little brighter now.


    This was because of the Crystal Warm Jade¡¯s spirit-gathering function. Previously, the Spiritual Qi in the Heavenly Star Terrace was extremely dense.


    Under the spirit-gathering function, the Crystal Warm Jade had recovered a lot of Spiritual Qi.


    If it recovered a bit more, it might be able to help Zhou Feng obtain a passive skill.


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind. ¡®I wonder if putting it into the pile of Spirit Stones can help the Crystal Warm Jade recover¡­¡¯


    He took out all the Spirit Stones in his storage ring. Then, he arranged them into a circle and finally placed the Crystal Warm Jade in the circle¡¯s center.


    With so many Spirit Stones piled up, the concentration of the surrounding Spiritual Qi instantly increased.


    The Spirit Crystal Warm Jade became a spirit-gathering core and gathered the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    Just like that, a simple spirit-gathering formation was formed.


    With the support of the Spirit Crystal Warm Jade, the surrounding Spiritual Qi continuously tilted in this direction.


    It was as if this place had formed a low-lying land, and the Spiritual Qi was like water, slowly flowing in this direction.


    During this process, the surrounding Spirit Stones were almost not damaged.


    The Crystal Warm Jade absorbed the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®It really works! This thing is too powerful!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not expect this kind of effect. The Crystal Warm Jade was indeed a rare Spirit Stone Vein¡¯s spiritual item.


    In this way, the Crystal Warm Jade could completely rely on the surrounding Spiritual Qi to replenish itself.


    If he had the Crystal Warm Jade as a charger, he would probably be able to obtain a passive skill in no time.


    ¡®Invincible! Truly Invincible!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s emotions were currently surging. This time, he was finally comparable to those disciples from large clans.


    Although he did not have many resources and his talent was not high, as long as he had enough passive skills, what genius or monster would he be?


    In the end, they would all be trampled under his feet.


    ¡®Given its current speed, I should be able to fill it up in a few days!¡¯


    Zhou Feng estimated the time slightly.


    Because the Spiritual Qi in the place he lived was not very dense, it would probably take a few days to fill up the Crystal Warm Jade.


    However, he would be able to fill it up before the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm opened.


    In other words, when Zhou Feng entered the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm, he would be able to obtain a passive skill.


    ¡®During this period, I can also deal with some miscellaneous items. This time, I won¡¯t bring Big Yellow with me to the Stellarsky Mystic Realm¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng planned to use this period to tidy up his things first.


    As for Big Yellow, its current strength was too low, and it wasn¡¯t suitable to bring it into the mystic realm.


    Next would be some medicinal pills. Zhou Feng planned to refine a batch of medicinal pills for himself to use in an emergency.


    And to be honest, consuming pills was also extremely suitable for him.


    Zhou Feng cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, so his digestive ability had become very strong.


    Probably because of the extremely harsh environment in ancient times, the Human Emperor had considered this matter as he created the scripture.


    Then, coupled with the Level-2 Gluttony, this caused his stomach to become an incinerator.


    No matter what it was, it could be instantly digested upon reaching his stomach. In turn, they would turn into various nutrients to nourish his body.


    Even if it was a medicinal pill, it was still the same. The medicinal effects would instantly spread throughout his entire body within three seconds after entering his stomach.


    His terrifying recovery ability, coupled with all sorts of medicinal pills, would propel his ability to withstand beatings to a top-notch level.


    Next, he could also bring some talismans.


    In times of danger, he could block with a few.


    ¡®After that, I¡¯ll bring some food¡­ Bait as well¡­ I should also prepare a few more sets of clothes.¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to prepare a large number of things.


    His storage ring was big enough to hold these things anyway.


    This time, he wasn¡¯t alone. There was still Li Rong.


    His clothes might be damaged during this battle, so he could make preparations beforehand.


    He even considered that they would be trapped, so eating was also essential.


    Apart from these miscellaneous things, poison and bait were naturally indispensable.


    Zhou Feng had developed an aphrodisiac back in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Now, it seemed that this aphrodisiac should be improved. Although poison and other things were already useless from the Soul Altar realm onward, the improved aphrodisiac should have some effect.


    Anyway, things like aphrodisiacs were really hard to guard against..

 Chapter 206 - Entering the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    A few days passed¡­


    The Crystal Warm Jade had returned to its original, lustrous appearance.


    And the price was that the Spirit Stones on the periphery had directly turned into a pile of stones.


    All the Spiritual Qi contained within had been sucked dry.


    This consumption was actually quite astonishing. Moreover, Zhou Feng could sense that the Spiritual Qi had become much thinner in the surroundings.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi had been sucked dry. It would probably take a few days to recover.


    ¡®This can¡¯t be used frequently. Unless it¡¯s in the wild, it¡¯s too easy to be discovered.¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed the surrounding Spiritual Qi and came to a conclusion.


    This method could not be used frequently because the change in Spiritual Qi would easily attract the attention of others.


    Unless it was used in the wild, where the Spiritual Qi was a little thin. It was far less than the Spiritual Qi in Heavenly Star City.


    It seemed that this method still had many drawbacks.


    But in any case, the Crystal Warm Jade was full.


    Zhou Feng put the Crystal Warm Jade around his neck.


    Then, the warm Spiritual Qi in the Crystal Warm Jade began to pour into his body, and he immediately opened his skill panel.


    The progress bar on the skill panel kept increasing.


    After a while, the progress bar was full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately chose to draw a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Adaptive Shell: Your physical body is adaptive. When you take the same type of attack, you can reduce the same type of damage by 5% each time you receive damage.


    It can be stacked up to a maximum of five times.


    ¡°Adaptive Shell? Another godly passive skill!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the new passive description and was shocked again.


    What had happened recently? Was he so lucky?


    This new passive skill was too abnormal.


    If he continuously received the same attack, then the maximum damage reduction would be 25%.


    To give a simple example, when Zhou Feng was attacked with Sword Qi, he would receive a 5% damage reduction every time he received a Sword Qi attack, and the maximum damage reduction would be 25%.


    Then, with his other passive defenses, Zhou Feng felt that he was really going to rely on his physical body to pierce through everything.


    This passive skill was fatal for cultivators who had only one attack method.


    However, it might not be so effective against cultivators who had many methods.


    Regardless, this passive skill was definitely a god-tier one.


    If others did not understand Zhou Feng well enough, they would definitely suffer a great loss.


    The best part was that by the time others figured out Zhou Feng¡¯s abilities, he would have already drawn a new passive skill. At that time, the others¡¯ knowledge would be useless.


    They would have to pay a huge price to find out Zhou Feng¡¯s abilities.


    ¡°Perfect!¡±


    Zhou Feng had already made all the preparations.


    What was worth mentioning was that he had taken advantage of his free time to improve the Carefree Powder a few times.


    Now, it was Carefree Powder 5.0.


    Carefree powder 5.0 had become more concealed, and the effects of the medicine had become slower. It had a very long incubation period and would not immediately take effect.


    This was something that Zhou Feng had planned for a long battle.


    However, once Carefree Powder 5.0 exploded, one¡¯s desire would become even more intense.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng was fully armed as he prepared to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    Li Rong was also under tremendous pressure because she had given the quota to enter the mystic realm to an outsider.


    Moreover, it was a person who had rejected the Li Clan.


    Regarding Zhou Feng¡¯s refusal to become the Li Clan¡¯s son-in-law, although the Li Clan did not say it, there were still many indignant people.


    If not for the fact that it was too degrading, many people were prepared to go and find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    Li Rong also knew about this matter, and she did not intend to blame Zhou Feng.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s personality, if the Li Clan came to his door rashly, they would naturally be ignored.


    During this period, Li Rong had already thought clearly about her future life.


    She did not want to be like a puppet, controlled by the big hand of the clan.


    Li Rong wanted to change her life and fight for the only time.


    Entering the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm with Zhou Feng was a fight against the clan.


    Although Li Rong had always been soft and weak before this, she acted swiftly when she made up her mind.


    It was probably because Li Manya had been explaining some things to her.


    Compared to the others, Zhou Feng was the only person that Li Rong liked. Li Rong also saw potential in Zhou Feng.


    Instead of marrying those who she did not like, she might as well marry Zhou Feng.


    Not to mention, Zhou Feng might be able to change her life.


    Li Rong¡¯s talent wasn¡¯t enough. She couldn¡¯t change the will of the clan by herself.


    Therefore, she could only rely on others.


    This sounded like Li Rong had an ulterior motive, but this was also very normal.


    After all, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t handsome enough to make the noble daughter of the Li Clan fall for him. However, one thing was certain¡ªLi Rong indeed had a good impression of Zhou Feng.


    And now, it seemed that Li Rong had a pretty good eye. After the news of Zhou Feng killing Wang Jin spread out, the pressure on her side was reduced. At the very least, they had tacitly accepted the fact that Zhou Feng could enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    A Soul Altar cultivator defeating a Purple Mansion cultivator might seem like a small matter in the eyes of those geniuses from the Heavenly Gathering, but it was undoubtedly an explosive piece of news to others.


    A moment of strength didn¡¯t mean anything to the geniuses. What was important was the subsequent development and the subsequent path.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng had killed two Purple Mansion cultivators in a row. In the eyes of ordinary people, he could be considered a monster.


    ¡°Heavenly Star Mystic Realm!¡±


    At that moment, Li Rong was dressed in martial attire. She was fully armed and prepared to fight alongside Zhou Feng in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    Many people would enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm this time, but the exact number was unclear.


    There were also no restrictions in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    It didn¡¯t matter whose clan you were from inside there. If you were accidentally ambushed, you could only blame yourself.


    For Li Rong, entering the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was also a challenge because she hadn¡¯t fought at all before this.


    If not for the pressure of the marriage alliance, Li Rong might still be the noble daughter of the Li Clan without any worries.


    After a long while, Zhou Feng and Li Rong met up.


    Zhou Feng was surprised to see the slightly heroic Li Rong, whose previous weak demeanor had changed.


    ¡®The change is quite big¡­¡¯


    He and Li Rong did not say much. Then, they were pulled into a mysterious space by a big hand.


    That feeling was exactly the same as when Zhou Feng had been pulled into a different space in the Heavenly Star Terrace.


    Was this the action of a Divine Ability expert?


    With such a question in mind, the surroundings were spinning.


    Heavenly Star Mystic Realm!


    This place, which usually did not have any people, finally welcomed guests.


    Light that flowed like water hung in the air.


    The tall trees almost blocked the light above their heads, leaving only spots on the ground.


    Zhou Feng adapted swiftly, almost the instant he was sent into the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm..

 Chapter 207 - Malice toward the Human Emperor Scripture

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What a dense concentration of Spiritual Qi!¡±


    As soon as Zhou Feng entered the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm, he instantly felt the dense Spiritual Qi around him.


    This density was several times higher than the places he had stayed in before.


    The Crystal Warm Jade on his neck also had a slight reaction at this moment.


    After staying here for a certain period of time, his realm might improve a lot.


    If one wanted to ensure this level of Spiritual Qi, they would have to seal the mystic realm regularly.


    No wonder the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm only opened once in a while, and it was exclusive to the large clans.


    Zhou Feng was able to enter this time because of Li Rong.


    And Li Rong actually only had the quota to bring people in this one time.


    Later on, if Li Rong wanted to enter again, she would have to make contributions to the clan.


    This time, she could stay in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm for at most seven days.


    Zhou Feng could pick anything in the mystic realm at will during these seven days.


    Of course, he couldn¡¯t destructively pick them.


    Apart from that, there was another mission to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    That was to obtain the Heavenly Star. Every time the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was opened, a Heavenly Star would be placed in it.


    This was a special spiritual artifact that would emit gentle starlight every night.


    If one could hold this Heavenly Star for seven days, then they would be considered the winner of this experiential learning.


    The winner would receive a reward from the City Lord.


    It was said that it was set up like this because Heavenly Star City was also under a lot of pressure.


    It needed to nurture true genius cultivators continuously.


    In order to fight against the Demons at the border, the City Lord and the major clans worked together to create such a mystic realm.


    Zhou Feng had heard all of this from Li Rong.


    He had also recognized the existence of the Demons from Li Rong.


    He had never seen the true Demons because the true Demons were all blocked at the border.


    There were only a few demonic beasts in the vicinity of Heavenly Star City. It was impossible for true Demons with intelligence to appear.


    ¡°Have we entered?¡±


    At this moment, Li Rong was slowly waking up.


    Li Rong was a Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivator, so she took quite a while to wake up.


    Two Grade-1 Soul Altar cultivators had actually dared to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm. This could be considered extremely rare.


    This was because those who entered the mystic realm to train were generally in the Purple Mansion realm and above.


    These people were all preparing to go to the border to fight against the demihumans.


    ¡°Yes! Do you know where the Malevolent Earth Qi Is?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw Li Rong wake up, the first thing he did was to ask where the Malevolent Earth Qi was.


    He needed the Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture and then break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡°Wait a moment! Let me look at the map!¡±


    Li Rong was also very familiar with his personality and took a map out of her storage ring.


    As the noble daughter of the Li Clan, although Li Rong¡¯s aptitude wasn¡¯t very good, her cultivation was above average.


    But in terms of treatment, there was absolutely nothing to say.


    Even the map of the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was available.


    Some cultivators without any background could only rely on themselves to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    This was because the City Lord would occasionally reward some geniuses from small clans to enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    Compared to those large clans, the disadvantages of these small clans were very obvious.


    ¡°It¡¯s in the north, all the way north. At the end, there¡¯s a baleful well.


    ¡°And that baleful well has a baleful beast guarding it. It¡¯s one of the most dangerous places in the mystic realm!¡± Li Rong explained to Zhou Feng seriously.


    It was also the place where the Heavenly Star was placed.


    ¡°North? Then let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng looked to the north and planned to set off immediately.


    After entering the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm, Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills were triggered. Coupled with his strong perception, he could sense that there was danger there.


    If he were alone, he believed that he would not waste much time and would be able to rush to the baleful well.


    Unfortunately, he was not alone.


    Seeing that Zhou Feng had already made up his mind, Li Rong steeled herself and followed.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    ¡­


    ¡°Have the vagabond cultivator and the eldest daughter of the Li Clan already entered the mystic realm?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! They¡¯ve already entered! And there¡¯s a high probability that they¡¯re heading toward the baleful well in the north!¡±


    ¡°Remember, don¡¯t attack the eldest daughter of the Li Clan. She has a Divine Ability restriction on her body!¡±


    ¡°And don¡¯t underestimate that Zhou Feng! That person is a little strange, but as long as there¡¯s the god-melting liquid, it shouldn¡¯t be a big problem¡­¡±


    After Zhou Feng entered the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm, a few people also entered.


    Moreover, these people were heading toward Zhou Feng.


    In order to deal with Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying recovery speed, they had even prepared the god-melting liquid.


    The god-melting liquid was a Pill Master¡¯s masterpiece. It was specially targeted at body-refining cultivators.


    This was because body-refining cultivators relied on their tyrannical physical bodies. Powerful body-refining cultivators could even tear apart spiritual artifacts with their hands.


    Naturally, some people researched such powerful body-refining cultivators and how they could defeat them.


    The god-melting liquid was developed specifically for body-refining cultivators.


    As long as one smeared it on a spiritual artifact or their limbs, the god-melting liquid would be triggered once the other party used their physical body to resist the attack.


    And the effect of the god-melting was to corrode the physical body. It could even melt the body of a god, which was why it was named the god-melting.


    ¡°Also, that vagabond cultivator¡¯s perception seems to be very powerful. This Five-Senses Chaotic Sphere also needs to be activated in advance.


    ¡°Finally, there¡¯s a supreme-grade spiritual weapon. This is a Grade-3 Essence-Breaking Needle! It¡¯s enough to break through that supreme-grade spiritual weapon.¡±


    The masked leader took out a few more specifically prepared items to deal with Zhou Feng.


    This was a direct investigation of Zhou Feng¡¯s background.


    During his battle with Wang Jin, Zhou Feng had revealed too many things, resulting in him being targeted to death.


    However, there was actually someone who would pay such a huge price to target him.


    Zhou Feng would probably never be able to guess who had such a great hatred toward him.


    ¡°Looks like this vagabond cultivator is quite monstrous. We needed to prepare so many things for a mere Soul Altar cultivator!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry! This person definitely won¡¯t be able to escape from our grasp!¡±


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers took inventory and patted their chests, guaranteeing that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able to leave this mystic realm.


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers were Purple Mansion cultivators. In addition to this pile of items, they also had such detailed information.


    If they still couldn¡¯t take down such a vagabond cultivator, then they should go and die.


    ¡°I hope so. Those who are still able to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture probably won¡¯t die so easily!¡±


    The masked man looked at the Demonic Ghost Brothers indifferently.


    Zhou Feng did not know that there was a prophecy regarding the Human Emperor Scripture.


    That was, after being cut off for 3,000 years, there would be someone who would defy the heavens and cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture again. Then, he would gain the favor of the Human Emperor Dragon Qi and regain the demeanor of a Human Emperor from ancient times.


    Many people took this prophecy as a joke. After all, it was not that there were no people who cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture. Almost none of them had any achievements.


    Even if there were people who went against the heavens and succeeded, they would not be able to break through to the Divine Ability realm in the end.


    They would all die during their Divine Ability Tribulation..

 Chapter 208 - Li Rongs Transformation

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Li Rong and felt that she still had some energy left.


    He continued to lead the way, showing no signs of stopping to rest.


    During this period, many accidents had happened, such as demonic beast attacks and some traps.


    Zhou Feng resolved them all one by one, relying on his passive skills.


    Sometimes, he knew there was a trap ahead and would just walk straight ahead to save time.


    After all, he could recover after exiting battle mode.


    The word ¡®exaggerated¡¯ carried a whole new meaning for Li Rong now.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance could be described as ¡®exaggerated¡¯. He was simply a human shield that blocked all the unfavorable factors outside.


    Li Rong only needed to follow obediently from behind. She did not need to do anything.


    They forced their way out of the originally dense jungle because of him.


    Initially, Li Rong wanted to converse with him, but in the end, she swallowed her words back to her throat. She did not know what to say.


    They did not seem to have anything in common.


    Not long after Zhou Feng violently opened the path, they arrived at the baleful well!


    Just as Zhou Feng approached the baleful well, its violent baleful aura gathered around him and gave him the feeling as if his skin was being torn apart.


    Surprisingly, it helped him stimulate his physical body, while it made it easier to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture, which was challenging to advance.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was strong, so this mere baleful aura was naturally nothing to him.


    However, Li Rong felt uncomfortable and could only circulate her Spiritual Qi to protect herself.


    Li Rong saw his excited expression and kindly reminded him, ¡°Be careful! A baleful beast is guarding this place!¡±


    This was not a good place. The so-called baleful beast was condensed from the Malevolent Earth Qi, and no one knew what it looked like.


    This was because the baleful beast itself did not have a fixed image. Its image could change at any time.


    ¡°Roar!¡±


    Just as Li Rong finished speaking, a strange baby-like cry resounded.


    This strange cry made the two people present have goosebumps.


    A human-shaped monster that was about two meters tall pounced on Li Rong.


    This monster had green lizard-like skin, and it had wings that looked like sarcomas on its back. Its face was a bloody mess, and it gave people a disgusting feeling.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Li Rong panicked instantly as the baleful beast pounced on her.


    This was too sudden. The moment the baleful beast appeared, it directly targeted Li Rong.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction was swift, and his entire body crashed against the baleful beast.


    A muffled sound echoed as the powerful bodies collided. It was as if Mars collided with Earth.


    Zhou Feng relied on all sorts of passive skills to endure the terrifying impact.


    On the other hand, a portion of the baleful beast¡¯s body dissipated, turning into baleful aura and dispersing.


    Traces of blood flowed out of Zhou Feng¡¯s seven orifices.


    Both parties contended in the most primitive form of hand-to-hand combat. They did not make a sound, nor did they measure each other.


    They fought head-on!


    By the time Li Rong reacted, Zhou Feng looked extremely miserable. He had all sorts of wounds with fresh blood oozing out of them, and his clothes were torn apart.


    The baleful beast was at least in the Purple Mansion realm, and its body was robust. Every attack carried a hint of Malevolent Earth Qi and corroded Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    However, the baleful beast¡¯s attacks were only powerful in the beginning. Later on, Zhou Feng adapted to this type of attack.


    This was because his latest passive skill had come into play.


    Upon reaching the passive Adaptive Shell¡¯s maximum stacking effect, the baleful beast¡¯s damage was reduced by 25%. After all, this baleful beast could only use one type of attack.


    The passive Adaptive Shell was simply the baleful beast¡¯s bane.


    ¡°Spirit-Cleansing Art!¡±


    After waiting for a while, Li Rong realized she should assist Zhou Feng.


    With that, a stream of pure Spiritual Qi formed a line and was connected to Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body.


    A warm feeling washed over Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body, and his wounds began to heal.


    The Spirit-Cleansing Art was the Li Clan¡¯s secret art. It could turn one¡¯s own Spiritual Qi into a line and connect it to a companion, assisting them in battle.


    Li Rong knew that given her strength she would be a burden after entering the mystic realm. Therefore, she had especially cultivated this art to assist Zhou Feng.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    When Zhou Feng felt that pure Spiritual Qi, his entire person felt refreshed. It was as if he had received a buff and was able to break through his limits.


    The baleful beast on the other side also felt his change and instantly turned its attention to Li Rong.


    Zhou Feng shouted urgently, ¡°Be careful!¡±


    The sarcoma-like wings on the baleful beast¡¯s back were detached in an instant and turned into bone spikes that flew toward Li Rong.


    The bone spikes flew at breakneck speed, their attack angle especially tricky.


    This beast had been hiding its strength!


    Now that it realized Li Rong was a threat, it immediately stopped concealing its power.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hurried shout stunned Li Rong, and she did not know what to do at all. After all, she had no combat experience.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction was quick. His body flashed and blocked in front of Li Rong.


    A few bone spikes pierced through his body.


    ¡°I¡­ I¡­¡±


    Looking at the fearsome bone spikes on Zhou Feng¡¯s back, Li Rong almost cried.


    Her eyes reddened instantly.


    Without waiting for Li Rong to cry, Zhou Feng said with a cold face, ¡°Concentrate! Use your power to support me! If you¡¯re still like this, I can only take you away first!¡±


    As soon as he finished speaking, the bone spikes on his back were squeezed out.


    The huge wounds began to heal, but his bright red blood was still flowing out.


    After hearing what he said, Li Rong finally calmed down. Her face started to spasm without saying anything, just like when Zhou Feng was fighting.


    Then, she used all her strength to cast the Spirit-Cleansing Art!


    Zhou Feng took out the Purple Jade Bell to cover Li Rong and then began to burn his Blood Qi.


    The more he fought, the braver he became. He punched down and created a storm, suppressing the baleful beast.


    The baleful beast was also very smart and continued targeting Li Rong.


    Moreover, it used the same tactic as Zhou Feng, exchanging injuries for injuries. In any case, it wanted to get rid of Li Rong first.


    ¡°Dodge!


    ¡°Stand behind me!


    ¡°Get lost!¡±


    Of course, Zhou Feng would not allow such a thing to happen and ordered Li Rong with a cold face.


    Li Rong¡¯s adaptability was beyond his imagination as she followed his orders meticulously. She did not even care about her image.


    In times of danger, her focus was off the charts. Her head and body were covered in dirt.


    Even when she was scratched by the baleful beast¡¯s sharp claws, Li Rong still held back her words. Her tears were already rolling around in her eyes, but she still managed to hold them back.


    It was precisely because of the sudden addition of such support that Zhou Feng burst forth with strength that surpassed his limits.


    The blood in his entire body began to boil and condense into golden threads..

 Chapter 209 - Successful Breakthrough! Reshaping the Body!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡®This baleful aura¡­¡¯


    During the battle, Zhou Feng suddenly realized that the baleful beast¡¯s aura was extremely pure.


    Compared to the wild and chaotic baleful aura in the surroundings, this baleful aura was pure.


    When it entered his body, it was as though his body had been ignited.


    ¡®Breakthrough! It¡¯s at this moment!¡¯


    After holding it in for so long, Zhou Feng finally felt that the opportunity for his breakthrough had arrived.


    He felt that his body had turned into a divine human furnace at this moment.


    The blood in his body was the material, and the baleful aura was the fuel.


    The temperature in the surroundings became hotter and hotter, and a golden light began to emanate from his body.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was withering at a visible rate, and all sorts of wounds continuously ruptured.


    If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng¡¯s good foundation, he probably wouldn¡¯t be able to hold on.


    Fortunately, his Self-Healing Constitution and Unyielding Heart were all in play.


    In addition, Li Rong had been providing him with pure Spiritual Qi, allowing him to hold on during this difficult moment.


    The baleful beast on the opposite side was no longer as arrogant as before.


    Under the passive Adaptive Shell, the damage Zhou Feng received was continuously reduced.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Fighting Spirit was about to reach 30% of extra damage.


    Every punch and palm contained the power to move mountains.


    Every time he struck the baleful beast, some of its pure baleful aura would leak, and he would forcefully devour it.


    At that moment, the Spiritual Attachment Art was extremely useful as it could forcefully pull the baleful aura into his body.


    ¡°Break!¡±


    Zhou Feng could no longer hold it in and could only roar to vent the fire in his heart.


    He only felt that the blood in his body was getting hotter and hotter until it reached the point where it could burn.


    His blood was starting to dry up, his body was withered, and his bones were starting to loosen up.


    His handsome appearance from before had undergone a huge change, turning into a skeleton.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? This is¡­


    Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying appearance scared Li Rong quite a bit, and she almost lost her balance.


    In Li Rong¡¯s eyes, he was simply a skeleton with a layer of skin wrapped around it.


    That layer of skin was still dry and cracked, giving off a frightening feeling.


    Although his appearance had become frightening, Zhou Feng felt that he was becoming more and more energetic.


    The scattered soul power in his Soul Altar was being burned by this flame and slowly formed a ball of something.


    During this process, the last hidden danger in Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar was also resolved.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng had previously cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, which had polluted his Soul Altar and soul power. He had been unable to resolve the issue of his chaotic until now, but the Human Emperor Scripture helped him cleanse and fuse it now.


    ¡°No! I don¡¯t have enough Blood Qi!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that he did not have enough Blood Qi, and the golden flame in his body was in danger of being extinguished.


    This golden flame used Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi as fuel.


    Now that he did not have enough Blood Qi, this golden flame could be extinguished at any time, and once it was extinguished, it would be a disaster for him.


    He poured all the medicinal pills and various medicinal ingredients out of his storage ring without hesitation.


    At present, he did not even need to swallow them into his stomach. The moment these things appeared, they were burned by the flames in his body.


    The Blood Qi that was dissolved after these items were burned supplied Zhou Feng¡¯s consumption.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The golden flame then wrapped Zhou Feng¡¯s whole body.


    The baleful beast could not withstand the golden flame and roared before attempting to flee.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng would not give it a chance.


    The Purple Jade Bell above Li Rong¡¯s head immediately released a suppressive force to restrict the baleful beast¡¯s movements.


    Following that, Zhou Feng¡¯s skinny right hand, carrying a golden flame flower, stabbed into the baleful beast¡¯s chest.


    There was something!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hand felt something like a small pebble and pulled it out without any hesitation.


    Instantly, that baleful beast began to dissipate, and a stream of Malevolent Earth Qi exploded.


    In the next instant, Zhou Feng¡¯s golden flame attracted the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    ¡°Is this a breakthrough? It¡¯s actually so fast!¡±


    The originally nervous Li Rong finally understood what was going on.


    Zhou Feng was in the midst of breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    To be honest, although Li Rong knew Zhou Feng was a genius, she hadn¡¯t expected he would reach the Purple Mansion realm fast.


    He hadn¡¯t been in the mystic realm for long, after all.


    And Zhou Feng breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm meant that the gap between him and Li Rong was turning into a huge chasm.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s strength continued to increase, the points that Li Rong¡¯s clan had gained would become less and less.


    When Zhou Feng broke through to the Divine Ability realm, it would be Li Rong¡¯s turn to be unworthy of him.


    In this world, strength held a very important position.


    As long as one was strong enough, they could become someone¡¯s backer.


    Li Rong once again felt the pressure.


    This kind of pressure made her feel that if she did not work hard, she would be thrown so far behind that she would not even be able to see a speck of his dust.


    Just as Li Rong felt the enormous pressure¡­


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body finally began to transform. That dry body overflowed with a glimmer of sparkling light.


    Following that, the sound of the surging sea echoed.


    This was naturally not because of the sea nearby, but because of the Blood Qi circulating in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Threads of dreamy light blossomed.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s skin was like dry land that had been moistened by the rain. In an instant, it became crystal clear.


    ¡°What is that?¡±


    While Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was recovering, his Soul Altar was also condensing his nascent soul.


    Condensing the nascent soul was extremely simple, and it did not take much effort.


    Zhou Feng could feel his nascent soul condensing.


    At that moment, it was as if a new world had opened before him. He looked around and saw a golden light leaving his body.


    The golden light had the shape of a dragon?


    Then, he heard a slightly old and crazy voice.


    ¡°You¡¯re not! You¡¯re not! You¡¯re not!¡±


    ¡®I¡¯m not? What am I not?¡¯


    A question appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    What did that voice mean by ¡®You¡¯re not?¡¯


    Unfortunately, the voice disappeared, and his soul returned to his physical body.


    At this time, his physical body had undergone a fundamental transformation.


    His crystal-clear skin emitted a faint light, and his jet-black hair danced wildly in the air.


    There was not a single bit of fat on his body. His body was like a divine work of nature, and everything was extremely harmonious and natural.


    Compared to before, Zhou Feng felt unprecedented strength in his body while his defensive ability had reached a terrifying level.


    Now, he felt that using a self-harming technique like the Blood-Burning Technique was useless to his current body.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was immersed in his physical body, Li Rong suddenly covered her eyes with both hands and screamed.


    Only then did Zhou Feng realize that his clothes seemed to have all been burnt.


    His naked body was floating in the air right now¡­

 Chapter 210 - Innate Divine Ability: Longevity

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Li Rong¡¯s heart was beating extremely fast, and her ears were dyed red.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, calmly took a set of clothes out of his storage ring and put them on.


    Since she had already seen his body, there was nothing for him to be embarrassed about. These small matters were completely out of his mind.


    What he wanted to know more now was what changes had occurred to him after breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡°Let¡¯s just rest here for some time. It¡¯ll be a good opportunity for me to get used to this.¡±


    Zhou Feng walked to Li Rong¡¯s side. His tone was extremely calm as if he had already forgotten about what had just happened.


    Li Rong had also recovered a bit, her face not as red as before.


    ¡°Alright¡­¡± she replied weakly.


    Zhou Feng looked at the injuries on Li Rong¡¯s body and took a few healing medicinal pills out of his storage ring.


    Fortunately, he had refined quite a number of healing pills before entering the mystic realm.


    Even if he had consumed a wave of them earlier, there were still many pills in his storage ring.


    The quality of the pills was not that good, but it was still barely enough to deal with the current situation.


    ¡°Take these pills. You should take them to recover.¡± Zhou Feng¡¯s tone was still as straightforward as before.


    ¡°Yes!¡±


    Naturally, Li Rong didn¡¯t have any objections to his arrangements.


    Afterward, the two of them found a small cave nearby and immediately began to rest.


    After setting up a few warning formations near the cave, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t wait to see what his innate divine ability was.


    Normally speaking, after condensing one¡¯s nascent soul and breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm, everyone would unlock their innate divine ability.


    And this innate divine ability was related to one¡¯s future path of cultivation.


    At this stage, the problem of innate talent and aptitude was that it further trapped many cultivators.


    Zhou Feng closed his eyes and looked inside, instantly discovering the difference.


    His blood¡­ actually carried traces of gold?


    The color of his blood had changed from pure red to red with gold.


    ¡®Is this because I condensed the Human Emperor Blood?¡¯


    A drop of pure gold blood was floating in the center of his heart.


    This drop of the Human Emperor Blood slowly emitted waves of power.


    When Zhou Feng used his internal vision, he could also feel the pressure that was coming at him.


    However, he didn¡¯t care about this. What he cared about was what his innate divine ability was.


    When his attention was placed on his nascent soul, he instantly understood what his innate divine ability was.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng bit his lip and frowned. He didn¡¯t know whether this innate divine ability was good or not.


    Generally speaking, innate divine abilities were greatly influenced by the ancestors.


    If the ancestors had a cultivator with a high cultivation realm, then there was a high probability said innate divine ability would be passed down to the future generation.


    Moreover, this kind of inheritance was based on the principle of the strong overthrowing the weak.


    Simply put, if your ancestors¡¯ cultivation bases were powerful, your inherited innate ability would be the one from the strongest ancestor.


    Moreover, because the innate ability of the entire family was the same, this innate ability would be continuously developed.


    It would continue to grow stronger and eventually become the exclusive innate ability of the family.


    What if the inheritance was getting weaker and weaker? The bloodline was getting thinner and thinner?


    In this world, this theory didn¡¯t exist.


    This was because from the Purple Mansion realm onward, all cultivators had the ability to trace their bloodline, allowing them to further strengthen their bloodlines.


    The more powerful the inheritance, the more powerful the innate ability would be.


    A great golden era of cultivation would arrive every once in a while, where countless monstrous geniuses would rise together. In the end, one of them would stand out from the rest.


    They would become the strongest person in the world and then wait for even stronger juniors to rise up.


    ¡®What does this innate divine ability count for? Is it powerful or not?¡¯


    Zhou Feng also didn¡¯t know if any great cultivators had appeared among his ancestors.


    His innate divine ability was actually longevity!


    Every time he broke through, his lifespan would be double the lifespan of an ordinary person!


    That¡¯s right! It was this kind of innate divine ability.


    It was extremely simple and didn¡¯t have any fancy tricks. It simply increased his lifespan, allowing Zhou Feng to live longer than an ordinary person.


    This innate ability could be said to be strong, but it didn¡¯t help him in battle at all.


    In a battle with other cultivators of the same level, it would be as if he didn¡¯t have an innate divine ability.


    Still, it wasn¡¯t to the extent of being weak.


    After all, the higher one¡¯s cultivation, the more lacking their lifespan would be.


    Dying of old age was what all cultivators feared the most.


    All cultivators would rather die in battle, die in their enemies¡¯ hands, or suffer a natural disaster than wait for death quietly.


    The feeling of having one¡¯s lifespan dry up despite having absolute power was truly too unbearable.


    Moreover, innate divine abilities could be developed. It didn¡¯t mean that they were fixed there.


    If Zhou Feng could continuously develop his innate divine ability, he might be able to live longer, spanning 1,000 years!


    This was something difficult for others but not that difficult for Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Live longer? Wait! If my innate divine ability is discovered¡­ Those old monsters won¡¯t hunt me down to refine pills, right!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly thought of an extremely serious question.


    If his innate divine ability was exposed, would it attract some old monsters whose lifespans had dried up?


    Those old monsters who had run out of lifespan but had extremely high cultivation levels might catch him and refine him into a human pill in order to survive.


    It wasn¡¯t impossible to use it to extend one¡¯s lifespan.


    This was because Zhou Feng had met someone before who wanted to refine him into a human pill.


    In this way, wouldn¡¯t he be like Monk Tang?


    ¡®This innate divine ability¡­ I absolutely can not let others know of my innate divine ability!¡¯ Zhou Feng instantly made up his mind.


    Fortunately, he had all sorts of passive skills.


    It should not be difficult for these passive skills to be disguised as innate divine abilities.


    Moreover, this innate longevity might be a great thing for Zhou Feng.


    The longer he lived, the more passive skills he could obtain.


    Think about it! If Zhou Feng could live for 1,000 years, how many passive skills would he be able to obtain?


    If it were any other innate ability, it might not be so suitable for him.


    This innate longevity of his was equivalent to countless passive skills!


    Thinking about it, Zhou Feng instantly became cheerful.


    That¡¯s right! This innate divine ability was simply perfect for him.


    What¡¯s more, some of his passive skills weren¡¯t even inferior to some innate divine abilities.


    ¡®Right! Passive skills!¡¯


    Zhou Feng recalled that every time he broke through, he would be able to draw passive skills.


    Since he had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, he should be able to draw new passive skills!


    Subconsciously, Zhou Feng opened the skill panel.


    ¡°Eh? It seems a little different!¡±


    The originally ordinary skill panel actually had a hint of golden light on it now..

 Chapter 211 - Passive: Invincible Aura!

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng had never seen such a change in the skill panel before.


    The ordinary skill panel actually exuded a dazzling light.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t figure out what was going on.


    He had always been ignorant about this golden finger of his. However, he wouldn¡¯t consider what he was worried about.


    As long as it was useful, worrying about it was useless.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng drew a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    This time, the drawing period was exceptionally long.


    If it were before, the passive skill would have already been drawn.


    There wouldn¡¯t have been any delay, but now he needed to wait so long? How strange!


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng did not have to wait for too long.


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Invincible Aura: A certain kind of aura starts to form on your body. Every time you defeat an enemy, this aura will accumulate by one layer.


    There is no limit to the layers you can accumulate.


    This new passive skill¡¯s description was a little vague. It did not directly say what the bonus was.


    ¡®Invincible Aura? Aura?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s intuition told him that this passive skill wasn¡¯t ordinary.


    Aura was important, but not that important.


    Moreover, this aura seemed to be related to the so-called phenomenon?


    Previously, he had seen a white tiger protecting Zhao Baihu.


    Just a slight movement made him feel like he was being stared at by a real white tiger.


    No upper limit should be the key!


    Compared to the previous passive skills, this new passive skill only attracted Zhou Feng.


    No upper limit restrictions.


    The previous passive skills basically had some more or less invisible restrictions.


    The description looked very powerful, but in reality, it was just that.


    But this new passive skill was actually marked as having no upper limit restrictions.


    This meant that as he defeated more enemies, the Invincible Aura on his body would continue to accumulate.


    In addition to his innate divine ability, he would be able to live for a very, very long time.


    The further he went, the more terrifying the aura on Zhou Feng¡¯s body would become?


    Perhaps, he wouldn¡¯t even need to make a move toward the end and just a glance would be enough to crush his enemies to death.


    Invincible Aura¡­ could it really be invincible toward the end?


    Zhou Feng checked his body and found that there didn¡¯t seem to be any changes from before.


    After drawing the passive Invincible Aura, the skill panel also returned to its previous appearance.


    After his Purple Mansion realm breakthrough, his innate divine ability was unlocked, and he even obtained a new passive skill.


    All of this had gone too smoothly. Originally, he had thought that he would encounter some twists and turns after entering this mystic realm.


    He had not expected it to go so smoothly. Still, this was also good.


    Zhou Feng originally did not want to move his nest.


    After all, a dense amount of Malevolent Earth Qi pervaded the area after the baleful beast¡¯s death, and he could continuously stimulate his physical body.


    Only by cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture would there be room for improvement.


    However, Zhou Feng did not forget that he had entered because of Li Rong.


    Therefore, he planned to become Li Rong¡¯s bodyguard.


    Zhou Feng had also temporarily found something to make up for the lack of the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    [Malevolent Earth Qi Core: The core condensed by the baleful beast. It was continuously compressed and formed from endless Malevolent Earth Qi, and it contains the purest Malevolent Earth Qi.]


    Zhou Feng had obtained this Malevolent Earth Qi Core after killing the baleful beast.


    Naturally, this treasure didn¡¯t escape the detection of the passive Treasure Appraisal.


    Zhou Feng shouldn¡¯t have to worry about the Malevolent Earth Qi for a short period with this core.


    It should at least allow him to cultivate to the 1st or 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm!


    Unfortunately, the scroll with the Human Emperor Scripture Zhou Feng had obtained only recorded techniques for tempering the body.


    There wasn¡¯t any information regarding the development of the Purple Mansion realm and the nascent soul.


    A phenomenon! This was the key to the Purple Mansion realm, and Zhou Feng had seen quite a few of them, such as the White Tiger avatar.


    But what exactly was this strange phenomenon? He didn¡¯t know at all.


    ¡®Forget it! I¡¯ve already broken through to the Purple Mansion realm. I¡¯m no longer a small Soul Altar fry. There are many things I can take my time with!¡¯


    After breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng suddenly felt a bit impulsive.


    He wanted to return to the Tri-Gu Sect and take revenge!


    It was truly a pity that such a disgusting sect wasn¡¯t completely annihilated yet.


    There was also Old Demon Gu, who had wanted to devour him back then.


    Who knew what he would think if he learned that Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡®Alright! Now, my matter has been resolved!¡¯


    Zhou Feng opened his eyes upon sorting out his situation and looked at Li Rong.


    Li Rong, who had been in a daze, suddenly saw him looking at her.


    She was completely stunned. What was he preparing to do?


    Whatever they did before, including coming here, were Zhou Feng¡¯s decisions.


    Now that Zhou Feng would follow Li Rong¡¯s lead, she really didn¡¯t know what to do.


    Moreover, the clothes on Li Rong¡¯s body were somewhat damaged because of the previous battle and large patches of her snow-white skin were exposed.


    However, the exquisite battle armor on her body was as good as new.


    ¡°I¡­ want to become stronger! At least, to the point, I can control my own destiny!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng was still looking at her, Li Rong spoke out her thoughts.


    Li Rong¡¯s outlook had changed quite a bit due to the earlier battle, especially when Zhou Feng had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm in front of her.


    The impact of knowing that a vagabond cultivator managed to reach such a level was incomparable.


    Thus, Li Rong now had a vague goal¡ª that was to become stronger! So strong that she could control her own destiny!


    ¡°Become stronger? Sure! I¡¯ll help you become stronger!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s view of Li Rong changed once more.


    At the very least, their current goals were somewhat similar. His goal was to become stronger and then live as long as possible.


    He had received such a huge favor from Li Rong, so he naturally had to repay it.


    As such, Zhou Feng planned to train Li Rong.


    Although his own strength was basically impossible to replicate¡ªit was the result of his personal efforts and the golden finger¡ªhe felt it was very easy for Li Rong to become stronger.


    Li Rong¡¯s aptitude was much better than his, and she also had much more cultivation resources than him with the Li Clan as her backing.


    Li Rong was still in the Soul Altar realm probably because she had no determination.


    She was the noble daughter of the Li Clan and did not even have to move her finger for others to do her bidding.


    She only needed to bring out the Li Clan¡¯s name or ask the Li clansmen to take action.


    Given such a status, Li Rong did not have the determination to cultivate assiduously.


    Zhou Feng planned to stimulate Li Rong¡¯s determination. At that time, her cultivation would definitely increase by leaps and bounds.


    ¡°Help me become stronger?¡±


    Li Rong was stunned again upon hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s calm and decisive voice.


    She did not know what Zhou Feng wanted to do, but he would not harm her anyway. This should not be a problem, right?


    As Zhou Feng was planning Li Rong¡¯s cultivation regime, the Demonic Ghost Brothers had already stealthily reached the baleful well.


    ¡°It seems to be here! A big battle just happened here!¡±


    ¡°It looks so intense! It seems that the timing of our arrival is just right!¡±


    Seeing the mess around them, the Demonic Ghost Brothers looked at each other and smiled.


    The traces of the battle were still fresh, so Zhou Feng and Li Rong must have consumed a lot of energy.. They could take advantage of this great opportunity to complete their mission!

 Chapter 212 - Two in One

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers were the gold-star assassins of an assassin organization.


    These two brothers were like one entity and cultivated a strange cultivation technique.


    When they fought, the effect of one plus one was greater than two.


    In addition, these two brothers had never attacked Purple Mansion cultivators and only targeted Soul Altar cultivators.


    Thus, ever since the Demonic Ghost Brothers¡¯ debut, they had never failed.


    They had accepted a new mission, a peculiar one at that. Not only was the target¡¯s detailed information provided, but they also received specialized weapons to deal with the target.


    Moreover, the target was only a Soul Altar cultivator, and the reward was very high.


    Although the Demonic Ghost Brothers sensed that something was wrong, the target was only a vagabond Soul Altar cultivator. No matter how powerful he was, they were not afraid.


    ¡°Big brother, how much do you think our employer hates this vagabond cultivator? He actually spent such a great price!¡±


    ¡°Who cares? Anyway, we are paid to do things! After completing this task, we will have all the necessary resources!¡±


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers held the Five-Senses Chaotic Sphere above their heads and slowly approached Zhou Feng and Li Rong¡¯s location.


    Thanks to the Five-Senses Chaotic Sphere, Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses could not detect the Demonic Ghost Brothers.


    Now, Zhou Feng planned to let Li Rong fight alone.


    That¡¯s right! In terms of cultivation, he could not give Li Rong any guidance.


    After all, his own cultivation was a mess, and he couldn¡¯t give guidance to others.


    However, Zhou Feng felt that what Li Rong lacked now was a strong dao heart.


    And the fastest way for Li Rong to forge a dao heart was to fight.


    After experiencing a few battles and encountering a few crises, people would naturally want to improve themselves.


    Moreover, Li Rong¡¯s actual combat experience was too poor.


    If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng, Li Rong might have lost her life on the spot a long time ago. Being in a daze during a battle was a big taboo.


    ¡°Fight a few more times! Then you¡¯ll be able to become stronger!¡± Zhou Feng said to Li Rong in an extremely serious manner.


    ¡°Fight a few more times? Okay!¡±


    Li Rong felt Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze on her, so she gnashed her teeth.


    Wasn¡¯t it just a battle? Anyway, there wouldn¡¯t be any life-threatening danger.


    ¡°According to the map, there¡¯s another dense forest near here. There should be a lot of Soul Altar demonic beasts over there. It¡¯ll be a good opportunity for you to practice.¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately arranged everything.


    There was a dense forest nearby with many spiritual medicines, which attracted lots of demonic beasts.


    There weren¡¯t many Purple Mansion demonic beasts, only a few of them, so it was a good opportunity for Li Rong to temper herself.


    Also, if she provoked a Purple Mansion demonic beast, Zhou Feng could test his current strength.


    Speaking of which, it seemed that he had never fought against a Great Demon before. He didn¡¯t know if they were stronger than human cultivators.


    Lastly, he could conveniently pick some of those spiritual medicines.


    Don¡¯t forget, Zhou Feng was also a Pill Master. If he could collect some precious spiritual medicines, that would be the best.


    ¡®Eh? What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    After Zhou Feng arranged everything, his body suddenly gave him some warning.


    This was a sudden sense of crisis.


    ¡®Battle Instinct was triggered? Why didn¡¯t I sense anything with my perception?¡¯


    ¡°Essence-Breaking Needle!¡±


    ¡°10,000 Ghosts Devouring Souls!¡±


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers had already sensed that Zhou Feng and Li Rong were in the cave, so they went all out.


    The screams of countless ghosts woke up Zhou Feng.


    Darkness and a strange aura enveloped the surroundings.


    ¡°Dodge!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body instantly released a golden light and pulled Li Rong behind him.


    ¡°Ding!¡±


    The ear-piercing sound of metal startled Li Rong.


    Why did someone suddenly attack them? What happened!?


    At that moment, Li Rong¡¯s mind was in a mess.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was burning with Blood Qi, and that suffocating pressure enveloped the surroundings.


    The Essence-Breaking Needle, which was said to be able to break through everything, actually failed to penetrate Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The countless brutal souls continuously tore at Zhou Feng¡¯s body, but it was completely useless.


    His Blood Qi was burning while his black hair was dancing wildly!


    Zhou Feng locked on the Demonic Ghost Brothers when they attacked.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    He charged out of the cave, and the first thing he saw was an extremely deformed person.


    These two people¡¯s bodies were actually stuck together, and they shared half of their bodies.


    However, they exuded the aura of two Purple Mansion cultivators. The black mist around them seemed to carry a sort of grievance and unwillingness that couldn¡¯t be dispersed.


    When Zhou Feng came out, the black mist evaporated.


    The blazing Blood Qi around Zhou Feng¡¯s body was like a blazing sun, and the black fog was like demons and devils.


    As soon as it saw the sun, it began to dissipate.


    Also, the smell of blood on these two brothers was simply too strong. Even within the Tri-Gu Sect, there weren¡¯t many people who exuded a stronger smell of blood.


    Just how many people had they killed?


    ¡°Purple Mansion realm!?¡±


    ¡°Purple Mansion realm!?¡±


    After sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s aura, the Demonic Ghost Brothers immediately felt that things weren¡¯t looking good.


    According to the information, Zhou Feng was in the Soul Altar realm. How did he suddenly become a Purple Mansion cultivator!?


    The situation wasn¡¯t right! They had to retreat first!


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers were united. When they realized that something was wrong, they immediately chose to retreat. They didn¡¯t care about anything else and directly gave up on this mission.


    ¡°You want to escape?¡±


    Zhou Feng was obviously unwilling to let them.


    They wanted to escape after launching a sneak attack? How could there be such a good thing in the world?


    Zhou Feng charged at the Demonic Ghost Brothers like a berserk Tyrannosaurus.


    ¡°Shield!¡±


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers retreated quickly, but at the same time, they were very methodical.


    A round shield that was glued together by broken limbs blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s path.


    The soaring resentment even weakened the golden light on Zhou Feng¡¯s body by half.


    No one knew how many people they had killed to condense such a thing.


    ¡°Shatter!¡±


    Unfortunately, this ¡®shield¡¯ was not enough to block Zhou Feng¡¯s punch and shattered on the spot.


    After advancing to the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng¡¯s power had become even more terrifying.


    His entire body was indestructible.


    ¡°So powerful!?¡±


    ¡°What should we do?¡±


    Seeing this, the Demonic Ghost Brothers immediately began to discuss.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s power far exceeded their imaginations, and it seemed that they couldn¡¯t escape.


    After all, this was not the outside world. They were currently in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    There were still many dangerous places in this mystic realm. If they ran around randomly, it was very likely that they would provoke some monsters.


    ¡°Fight?¡±


    ¡°Fight!¡±


    Since they could not escape, they could only try fighting.


    If it did not work, they would use the noble daughter of the Li Clan as a hostage.


    This person had a deep relationship with the noble daughter of the Li Clan, so they should be able to threaten him.


    However, this person¡¯s personality was extremely unyielding. It was best not to anger him.


    Using the noble daughter of the Li Clan as a hostage was their last resort.


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers were recalling the detailed information about Zhou Feng. Besides analyzing Zhou Feng¡¯s personality, there were also many things about Zhou Feng.


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid a prolonged battle won¡¯t do. According to the information, this person is more courageous the longer he fights!¡±


    ¡°In that case, let¡¯s end the battle swiftly! Smear the god-melting liquid on him! This person¡¯s body is abnormally strong! We need to rely on the god-melting liquid to break through his defenses!¡±


    In less than a second, the Demonic Ghost Brothers came up with a countermeasure.


    When they were discussing, they were very calm. Their tone was as if they were cutting a piece of meat on the table..

 Chapter 213 - Self-detonation and Escape?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers took out the god-melting liquid and smeared it on their hands.


    At that moment, golden flames were burning on Zhou Feng¡¯s body as he gave chase with a punch.


    This punch carried a supreme aura, and it felt as if a god was powering it up.


    ¡°Hand-to-hand combat?¡±


    ¡°Hand-to-hand combat!¡±


    Hand-to-hand combat was the Demonic Ghost Brothers¡¯ forte. The two of them were one and had two arms on both sides.


    In hand-to-hand combat, they held a huge advantage.


    A dark murderous aura rose like a tide.


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    The battle began!


    Zhou Feng resembled a god of war as his aura slowly rose.


    However, the Demonic Ghost Brothers were not to be trifled with. The murderous aura behind them grew thicker and thicker while screams occasionally resounded.


    They stood on equal footing with Zhou Feng¡¯s golden light, forming a scene of golden light and a black tide.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    After advancing to the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng felt that he had an inexhaustible amount of power.


    Even the Demonic Ghost Brothers, a pair of veteran Purple Mansion experts, were nothing more than this in his senses. He even had a feeling that he could crush the Demonic Ghost Brothers.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was calm. He punched down again and sent them flying against a rock on the ground.


    Their stalemate was broken in an instant.


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers only felt endless power pouring into their bodies.


    Moreover, this was pure raw power, and it was extremely difficult to resist.


    Their bodies were on the verge of cracking!


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! This person is an abnormal body-refining cultivator! His flesh is unbreakable!


    ¡°Also, this person¡¯s battle instincts are extraordinary, and the god-melting liquid is completely useless!¡±


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers originally wanted to have a fight with Zhou Feng. They wanted to make Zhou Feng know they were no pushovers and retreat.


    But who knew that after this fight, a problem would arise?


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers felt that the two of them were actually not Zhou Feng¡¯s match.


    During the short exchange just now, although the Demonic Ghost Brothers had four hands, a great advantage in battle, and even had the assistance of the god-melting liquid, Zhou Feng seemed to have predicted all of their movements and was able to dodge any attack.


    The passive Battle Instinct began to display its terrifying effects after Zhou Feng broke through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Sometimes, he didn¡¯t even need to use his brain. His body would dodge by itself. This sort of feeling was somewhat similar to having mastered a supreme technique.


    In addition, the strength of his body was far beyond what the Demonic Ghost Brothers had imagined.


    ¡°What do we do?¡±


    ¡°You die, or I die?¡±


    ¡°You die!¡±


    ¡°Fine!¡±


    Sensing the increasingly explosive aura emanating from Zhou Feng¡¯s body, the Demonic Ghost Brothers could only feel that they were in deep trouble.


    Originally, they only wanted to complete a mission in order to save up resources, yet they encountered such a monster.


    However, these two brothers were also quite decisive. Since they couldn¡¯t defeat him, they could only flee!


    ¡°Explode!¡±


    Suddenly, the younger brother exploded.


    That¡¯s right! He exploded! The type that didn¡¯t have any warning signs.


    This was a self-detonation!


    Countless drops of blood rained down.


    Zhou Feng, who was at the side, didn¡¯t have any space to dodge and was directly affected.


    However, the golden light on his body became brighter and brighter.


    The shockwave from the self-explosion was forcefully withstood, and there were no wounds.


    His body, which had been reborn, was much stronger than before.


    What¡¯s more, his new body was enhanced by his passive Adaptive Shell, Reinforced Iron Bones, and Tough Skin.


    Even if he suffered an injury due to the explosion, his passive Self-Healing Constitution would take care of it in a few seconds.


    ¡®He escaped?¡¯ A hint of astonishment appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    The other brother had relied on the explosion to flee for his life, quickly leaving this region.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng had already imprinted his aura in his mind.


    In terms of perception, Zhou Feng had also made significant progress.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s perception was already outstanding because of the passive Master Hunter.


    Now that he had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm and successfully condensed his nascent soul, his perception was even more powerful.


    Even when the Demonic Ghost Brothers had used the Five-Senses Chaotic Sphere, Zhou Feng was still somewhat alarmed.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Zhou Feng shouted to Li Rong behind him.


    ¡®So powerful¡­¡¯


    Li Rong, who had witnessed the battle with her own eyes, had a look of shock on her face.


    Zhou Feng had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, so how could he be so powerful?


    ¡®Aren¡¯t these the gold-star assassins from the Yama Palace, the Demonic Ghost Brothers?


    ¡®According to my aunt, the Demonic Ghost Brothers are both at the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm!


    ¡®And because they are moving together, ordinary 3rd Level Purple Mansion cultivators aren¡¯t their match¡­


    ¡®What has just happened? Why are these Demonic Ghost Brothers so weak?


    ¡®Were they intentionally going easy on him?¡¯


    Li Rong had witnessed Zhou Feng chase after the Demonic Ghost Brothers and exchange blows for a short while before the younger brother exploded and the other fled.


    This was too strange!


    ¡°Go? Go where?¡±


    Li Rong recovered from her shock upon hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s voice.


    It wasn¡¯t that she was lacking in experience, but that Zhou Feng¡¯s rise in strength was too unreasonable.


    Normally speaking, breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm would require a period of adaptation.


    It was good to completely control one¡¯s soul and body, and then put them together in order to be able to display strength that only belonged to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Just breaking through and already beating up the Ghost Fiend Brothers until they were pissing their pants, this was too¡­


    ¡°I¡¯m going after that person of course! Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not want to waste any more time. He grabbed Li Rong, flew in the air, and rushed in the direction where Gui Sha had escaped.


    When Zhou Feng approached, Li Rong felt an invisible pressure.


    This was something that had not happened before. It was like a rabbit meeting a tiger, the kind of bloodline suppression.


    The longer she interacted with Zhou Feng, the more amazed Li Rong felt.


    ¡°Can I really do it?¡±


    Li Rong was shocked by their battle, and her whole body was in a state of absent-mindedness.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, was in a state of excitement.


    It was too awesome! His body was constantly transmitting endless power.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi also became easy to mobilize unlike in the past.


    He could even fly in the air and instantly learn how to do so. It was like an instinct.


    ¡®Is this what happens after condensing a nascent soul?


    ¡®I can use surrounding Spiritual Qi effortlessly. Every action of mine is accompanied by the might of heaven and earth.


    ¡®I haven¡¯t had enough fun yet! Why did that person suddenly run away!?¡¯


    The only thing that made Zhou Feng slightly unhappy was that Gui Sha ran too quickly.


    He clearly sensed that the other party still had the ability to retaliate.


    How could they self-destruct!?


    Just as Zhou Feng was chasing after Gui Sha with Li Rong¡­


    The loud explosion had attracted the attention of the others in the mystic realm.


    The sentence ¡°Resounding through the clouds¡± was the most suitable description.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was abnormally strong. If it were anyone else, it would be difficult for them to survive that kind of explosion.


    ¡°What happened? The explosion¡­¡±


    ¡°That place seems to be where the baleful well is located.¡±


    ¡°Is someone fighting? There was such a big commotion!¡±

 Chapter 214 - Teaching

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Gui Sha suppressed his aura as he muttered to himself, ¡°What a huge loss! What a huge loss!¡±


    This time, he had suffered a huge loss.


    They should not have accepted this mission in the first place.


    After all, since their employer had provided such detailed information and equipment, there must be something wrong with their target.


    ¡°Still, that person must be in a miserable condition after the explosion!¡±


    Gui Sha was a little frustrated as his younger brother had sacrificed his life, and he needed to waste many resources to resurrect him.


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers had already gathered all the necessary resources to advance, yet they had to start all over again now.


    Unfortunately, this was not something they could control. Gui Sha and his younger brother were two people who had merged into one; even their souls were stuck together.


    If Gui Sha did not resurrect his brother, his soul would also suffer.


    Speaking of which, the Demonic Ghost Brothers had committed many evil deeds. They had even participated in the massacre of a city and barely survived.


    A large part of the reason was that no matter who died, they would be able to resurrect the other party as long as one of them survived. This could be considered as the two brothers¡¯ innate divine ability.


    However, there was a price to pay for this revival. Each time they revived, their emotions would slowly disappear.


    Gui Sha would have definitely flown into a rage in the past due to the heavy loss. This reward wasn¡¯t enough to compensate them.


    But now, it didn¡¯t seem to matter.


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers had revived too many times, so they had almost lost all of their emotions. This was also the reason they had decided one of them would sacrifice himself while the other would flee when they felt something was wrong.


    They were following their body¡¯s instincts more and more.


    If the Demonic Ghost Brothers continued resurrecting, they would completely lose all their emotions and would become walking corpses, wandering in this world.


    ¡°He¡¯s not far! Later, you will kill that thing which is neither human nor ghost,¡± Zhou Feng calmly said to Li Rong.


    Probably because of the explosion, Gui Sha¡¯s aura had dropped to a very low level.


    Zhou Feng did not plan to deal with him personally. Instead, he would let Li Rong kill Gui Sha.


    ¡°M-Me!?¡± Li Rong was stunned.


    Before this, she had been following behind Zhou Feng, but now, he suddenly wanted her to kill someone.


    Li Rong was at a loss.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze turned sharp as he stared at Li Rong and spoke. ¡°That¡¯s right. This is the first step to becoming stronger. That person ambushed us just now. If it weren¡¯t for my quick reaction, you would have already died!¡±


    ¡°Given your meek character and lack of vigilance, it¡¯s only a matter of time before you die outside.


    ¡°You¡¯re hesitant, but you do have your own opinions. Once someone gets a little tougher, you¡¯ll become submissive.


    ¡°To be honest, I hate people like this the most.¡±


    Zhou Feng did not hold back at all.


    He was speaking the truth. Li Rong¡¯s personality and overall performance until now showed that she would be unable to survive in the environment outside Heavenly Star City.


    This was the personality that he hated the most.


    Now, Zhou Feng planned to teach Li Rong a good lesson in order to change her character.


    ¡°I¡­ I¡­ I¡­¡±


    Hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s evaluation of her, Li Rong opened her mouth, not knowing how to refute his words.


    Zhou Feng did not care about Li Rong¡¯s feelings and thoughts.


    The golden blood in his body began to burn. This was the first time he was burning the golden blood in his body.


    He had accumulated a few drops of golden blood in his body during this period, and he was burning more than half of it now.


    Zhou Feng did this because he wanted to test his limits.


    Before Li Rong could say anything, a wave of heat overwhelmed her. The pressure that belonged to the Human Emperor broke through the clouds.


    A vague figure appeared behind Zhou Feng.


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­¡±


    ¡°That aura¡­ That¡¯s a phenomenon? Someone manifested a phenomenon?¡±


    ¡°What happened? Why did a battle break out so early? Did they discover the Heavenly Star?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Naturally, such a terrifying aura once again attracted the attention of the entire mystic realm.


    After all, the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm wasn¡¯t too big, and Zhou Feng had created a huge commotion this time.


    Among them, Gui Sha¡¯s reaction was the biggest as that aura had already locked on him.


    Gui Sha was in the midst of resurrecting his younger brother when he suddenly felt a pressure descend and lock on him.


    ¡°What happened? This aura¡­ Why does it feel familiar?¡±


    Just as Gui Sha felt that something wasn¡¯t right, Zhou Feng, whose whole body was covered in golden flames, descended from the sky like a meteor.


    ¡°It¡¯s him!? Impossible!¡±


    When Gui Sha saw Zhou Feng, he was dumbfounded.


    ¡®He should have been affected by my younger brother¡¯s self-explosion! How could he be completely fine? How did he find me?


    ¡®He is a monster! We¡¯ve been set up!¡¯


    A trace of panic finally appeared on Gui Sha¡¯s face.


    If he died, they would no longer be able to get resurrected.


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers had been eerily calm before because no matter who died, the other brother could bring the fallen brother back to life. Ergo, why they could calmly discuss who would self-detonate¡­


    The situation was different now.


    Gui Sha wanted to evade, but there was no time at all.


    Zhou Feng was many times stronger now that he was burning the Human Emperor Blood.


    As soon as Gui Sha moved, all the bones in his body were shattered by a single palm strike.


    This was a pure crushing force. The immense force penetrated through Gui Sha¡¯s entire body, and none of his bones remained intact.


    After severely injuring Gui Sha, Zhou Feng stopped burning the Human Emperor Blood.


    ¡®The increase in battle prowess is so great? The price is quite high, however¡­¡¯


    After Zhou Feng stopped burning the Human Emperor Blood, he instantly felt a wave of weakness.


    Moreover, all the Blood Qi in his body began to move toward his heart. He had tapped into the Human Emperor Blood for a short period, yet he felt as if all of his Blood Qi was drained.


    Burning the Human Emperor Blood was the only method recorded in the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Zhou Feng had just used it once to finish the battle quickly and test it out.


    He did not expect the consumption to be so great.


    Still, it was worth it as he had gained another trump card. Plus, he crippled Gui Sha.


    Now, besides passive skills, he also had a technique that enhanced his battle prowess.


    Zhou Feng swallowed a few pills, and the Level-2 Gluttony turned them into Blood Qi.


    At this time, Li Rong finally arrived.


    Zhou Feng looked at Li Rong and gave her a look. ¡°Kill him!¡±


    ¡°Now?¡±


    Li Rong glanced at the miserable Gui Sha.


    Zhou Feng frowned. ¡°Immediately!¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Seeing that his complexion was not very good, Li Rong took a deep breath, summoned a small jade hammer, and circulated all the Spiritual Qi in her body to activate it.


    The small jade hammer emitted an indestructible aura, and she smashed it into Gui Sha¡¯s chest!


    Gui Sha did not have the ability to resist at all. He could only watch helplessly as the small hammer struck him.


    Following that, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.


    The scorching hot fresh blood splashed onto Li Rong¡¯s body.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s entire body trembled, but she still tried her best to calm herself..

 Chapter 215 - Gradual Deviation

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Just what kind of monster is this! Why is he completely fine!?¡±


    Gui Sha was struck by Li Rong¡¯s hammer until he vomited blood.


    He was extremely depressed. Why did he have to offend such a monster!?


    The power that Zhou Feng had just unleashed had already exceeded the norm.


    This wasn¡¯t something that an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator could unleash.


    Although Gui Sha had been careful and instructed his brother to self-detonate for him to escape once they realized that something was wrong, he had never imagined that he would be unable to escape in the end.


    The most lamentable thing was that a little girl was using him as her¡­ sparring partner to improve her skills.


    ¡°He¡¯s not dead!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyebrows twitched as he continued to speak to Li Rong.


    Since Zhou Feng had received such a great favor from Li Rong, he had the responsibility to train her well.


    ¡®Doesn¡¯t she know how to land a fatal strike? It¡¯s hard to imagine how she has managed to survive until now.¡¯


    Li Rong gnashed her teeth and continued swinging the small jade hammer in her hand.


    This small jade hammer was a top-grade spiritual artifact with countless suppression runes engraved on it.


    Don¡¯t look at how small it was. Once activated, it was comparable to a small mountain falling from the sky.


    Li Rong had the assistance of such a spiritual artifact, and yet, she was unable to kill a defenseless person with a single blow¡­


    Gui Sha felt that half of his body was gone, but he wasn¡¯t dead yet.


    Truth be told, it was not easy to kill Purple Mansion cultivators. As long as the opponent didn¡¯t hit a vital point, the chances of dying on the spot were very low.


    As such, Li Rong continued delivering blows to Gui Sha¡¯s body with her small jade hammer.


    ¡°Watch me!¡±


    Zhou Feng could no longer stand it. He looked at Gui Sha, who was on the verge of death, not planning to give him another chance.


    He took action, completely relying on his own physical strength, and kicked Gui Sha¡¯s head.


    Then, a stream of blood spurted out like a fountain, splashing all over Zhou Feng and Li Rong¡¯s bodies.


    Gui Sha¡¯s head flew into the sky and turned into a black shadow. No one knew where it went.


    This cruel and bloody scene made Li Rong extremely uncomfortable. She even felt a little nauseous.


    ¡°It¡¯s alright, just get used to it. Remember to be cautious after killing the enemy!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not pay too much attention to Li Rong when he saw her like this. She could slowly adapt to these kinds of scenes. He would teach Li Rong everything based on his own experiences along the way.


    After saying that, Zhou Feng used the Purple Jade Bell to gently press on Gui Sha¡¯s corpse.


    Immediately, the corpse turned into meat paste.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Originally, Zhou Feng wanted to demonstrate the universal corpse-dealing practices, engraving them deep in Li Rong¡¯s mind.


    However, he did not expect a black shadow to jump out of the meat paste and let out an ear-piercing screech.


    ¡°He has yet to die?¡±


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body rippled like a wave and incinerated the black shadow.


    The sudden development scared Li Rong silly once again.


    ¡®How could this person still be alive!?!?¡¯


    Who were the Demonic Ghost Brothers?


    The two of them had merged, and they were the gold-star assassins of the Yama Palace. They had accepted countless missions and had never failed to eliminate their target. Even when enemies came knocking on their door, they would always be able to escape easily.


    However, these two brothers would never have thought that this would be their final resting place.


    The Demonic Ghost Brothers¡¯ souls were entangled together, so they were more powerful than your ordinary soul. Even without the protection of their physical bodies, their souls could still survive for a short period.


    If they could find a suitable physical body during that short period, the two of them could continue living.


    Unfortunately, everything was over now.


    Zhou Feng had stumbled upon their final trump card just like that and annihilated them in body and soul.


    Ever since the Demonic Ghost Brothers¡¯ debut, they had never been so sullen.


    Before they had the time to use any tricks, Zhou Feng had used his strength to defeat them. It was really too tragic.


    ¡°Do you understand now? You have to confirm that your enemy is dead. Cut the head, loot the corpse, and destroy the corpse!¡±


    After this small episode, Zhou Feng began to lecture Li Rong.


    Killing the enemy and looting the corpse was a necessary process.


    Regarding this, he naturally taught Li Rong everything.


    ¡°Don¡¯t say that you don¡¯t lack resources! Cultivation resources are something that you will always lack.


    ¡°Moreover, if you want to be free and unfettered, then you can only rely on yourself for everything. Once you rely on others, it¡¯ll be impossible for you to be free!¡±


    Zhou Feng stopped Li Rong who wanted to speak.


    In the end, Li Rong shut her mouth, forced what she wanted to say back to her stomach pit, and listened to his teachings. She longed for freedom and did not want to be restricted by her clan.


    ¡°After looting and destroying the corpse, you must quickly leave this place! Hide yourself!¡±


    After plundering Gui Sha¡¯s storage ring, Zhou Feng grabbed Li Rong and left this place.


    Li Rong¡¯s discomfort from before had lessened by a lot.


    At the same time, she also began to try her best to adapt to what Zhou Feng had said.


    ¡°Also, when you encounter an enemy, try not to speak as much as possible. All you need to do is focus on killing the enemy!¡±


    Zhou Feng continued teaching Li Rong how to deal with certain situations along the way while searching for demonic beasts in the surroundings with his sharp senses.


    Finally, he found a location with Soul Altar demonic beasts and headed there to temper Li Rong. As long as she killed more, she would eventually get used to it.


    The Li Clan was in the dark that Zhou Feng was training their noble daughter in an extreme and dangerous direction.


    The gentle, virtuous, and pure noble daughter of the Li Clan was gradually disappearing, and a direct and violent demoness was emerging in her place.


    Li Rong felt that something was not right as she listened to Zhou Feng. ¡°Isn¡¯t this extreme? Shouldn¡¯t we try to communicate? Isn¡¯t attacking directly¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng thought about it and said it in a more tactful manner, ¡°There¡¯s no need. Before attacking, you have already given the other party a chance.


    ¡°However, you have to be careful when attacking. As long as it does not have to do with your safety, don¡¯t attack recklessly.¡±


    ¡°I see¡­¡±


    The more they communicated, the more Li Rong realized that Zhou Feng was different.


    That sort of mentality was different from everyone she had ever met.


    And it was precisely because of this difference that Li Rong was firmly attracted to him.


    ¡­


    While Zhou Feng was leading away (and astray) Li Rong, a few Purple Mansion cultivators were heading in Zhou Feng¡¯s direction.


    ¡°Are you sure? Is the Heavenly Star there?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m sure! We didn¡¯t find it in the other locations. There are only two places left!¡±


    ¡°Finding the Heavenly Star isn¡¯t the key! The key is how to guard the Heavenly Star!¡±


    Bai Wuyi touched the falcon on his shoulder, his tone somewhat solemn.


    This time, the winner of the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm had to be him.


    There was an important item in the City Lord¡¯s treasury. If he obtained that item, breaking through to the Divine Ability realm would be a piece of cake for him.


    However, several teams had entered the mystic realm this time, and they all posed a great threat to his plans.


    The most important thing now was to get his hands on the Heavenly Star as soon as possible.


    This would make it easier for him to put in motion his plans..

 Chapter 216 - Eagle Fighting a True Dragon

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Hammer!¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s smooth and tender skin was once again stained with blood.


    Zhou Feng looked at Li Rong.


    Her black hair was tied up, revealing her swan-like neck.


    She was wearing light and short battle armor, exposing large areas of her fair and tender skin.


    If she had not been stained with that bright red blood, she would have looked like a goddess of pure desire.


    Li Rong had a pure temperament with a hint of mature temptation, resembling a blooming flower.


    However, the little bit of bright red blood on her face, coupled with her fair and tender skin, made Li Rong look like a madwoman who had escaped from a mental hospital, the kind that made people shiver all over.


    ¡°Very good! You have already adapted!¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but reveal a smile due to Li Rong¡¯s progress.


    Li Rong finally overcame the fear in her heart in the process of continuously hunting demonic beasts.


    She completely displayed the strength that she should have.


    And Zhou Feng had once again witnessed the foundation of a large clan.


    After overcoming the fear in her heart, the strength that Li Rong displayed was completely unlike that of an ordinary Soul Altar cultivator.


    Not only was her spiritual power pure, but she also had vast reserves, far surpassing those of Zhou Feng when he was in the Soul Altar realm.


    It was also unknown what kind of cultivation technique Li Rong cultivated. She was actually able to temper her spiritual power to such an extent.


    If Zhou Feng did not have his passive skills, he felt that Li Rong could crush him if he was still a Soul Altar cultivator.


    There was also that small jade hammer, which seemed to be tailor-made for Li Rong¡¯s needs.


    It was extremely compatible with Li Rong¡¯s spiritual power, and every hammer strike had a suppressive effect.


    Once the hammer struck those demonic beasts, they would become stiff.


    Then, there were all kinds of spiritual artifacts she carried. Even the hairpin on Li Rong¡¯s head was a spiritual artifact.


    ¡®As expected of a large clan with a Spirit Stone mine.¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that the medicinal pills he had taken out to treat his injuries were really a little shabby.


    The medicinal pills Li Rong had taken out were countless times better than his.


    After putting away the little jade hammer, Li Rong ran to his side, revealing a brilliant smile. ¡°Big Brother Zhou! I feel like I¡¯ve reached a bottleneck!¡±


    ¡°Bottleneck? Are you about to break through to the Purple Mansion realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what to say at this moment.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t they say that her aptitude wasn¡¯t very good? She¡¯s about to break through to the Purple Mansion realm so quickly!?¡¯


    ¡°Right! I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on either!¡±


    Li Rong was exhilarated. She no longer felt so empty and bored.


    Li Rong had found a goal, and that was to become stronger!


    Who would have thought that fighting would be such a joyful thing?


    ¡°I was really stupid before, wasting my time there every day! Fortunately, I met Big Brother Zhou!¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s eyes were now filled with Zhou Feng¡¯s image.


    ¡°Then what should I do next?¡±


    Originally, Zhou Feng¡¯s greatest goal in entering the mystic realm had been to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Since his goal had been accomplished, he focused on tempering Li Rong.


    Now, this goal was almost complete.


    What should he do now? Explore the entire Heavenly Star Mystic Realm?


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t interested in this because there weren¡¯t many good things in this mystic realm.


    As for spirit herbs and the like, he only picked some on his way and didn¡¯t collect them frantically.


    After all, he was only a part-time Pill Master, and his main focus was still cultivation.


    Speaking of this, Zhou Feng felt that what he needed was to find the next volume of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    The Human Emperor Scripture in his hands could only be cultivated to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm, and it didn¡¯t have any offensive techniques. It purely described how to raise one¡¯s cultivation level and temper their body.


    Zhou Feng felt that he could still learn some dao arts or offensive techniques.


    For example, dao arts that could be used to run and chase people. Li Rong had a technique called the Shadowless Steps, which allowed her to move swiftly.


    Moreover, she wouldn¡¯t even leave a shadow behind. If Zhou Feng¡¯s senses weren¡¯t sharp enough, it would be very difficult for him to catch Li Rong¡¯s movements.


    Next was her attack technique. Li Rong had a secret technique passed down in her clan that could instantly increase her spiritual power.


    These kinds of methods made Zhou Feng a little envious.


    ¡°Oh right! If you become the winner of the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm this time, what will the reward be?¡±


    ¡°Reward? The probability is that you will enter the City Lord¡¯s treasury to choose an item!¡±


    Li Rong was somewhat uncertain.


    The winner of the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm¡¯s experiential training would receive a slightly different reward every time.


    However, what was certain was that the winner would be able to enter the City Lord¡¯s treasury to pick an item.


    The treasury contained a collection of good items, and each City Lord of Heavenly Star City had contributed to it. Therefore, this reward could be considered extremely generous.


    ¡®Entering the City Lord¡¯s treasury to pick an item? I wonder if there¡¯s a volume of the Human Emperor Scripture in there¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng pondered for a moment and felt that he could fight for it.


    ¡®Wait! Is that thing in front of me the Heavenly Star?¡¯


    While he was thinking, the sky in front of him suddenly burst with bright starlight.


    The Heavenly Star!


    This was a spiritual artifact the City Lord had placed in the mystic realm. As long as someone could hold the Heavenly Star, they would persist to become the winner of this experiential training until the mystic realm closed.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had also paid attention to the position of the Heavenly Star a few times.


    This was because the Heavenly Star would emit light every once in a while, attracting other people from the mystic realm to fight for it.


    But this time, it was actually so close. It was basically right in front of him.


    ¡°It seems to be the Heavenly Star! Should we go and snatch it?¡±


    After seeing the Heavenly Star, Li Rong suddenly revealed an excited expression.


    Surprisingly, she felt an urge to go and snatch it. If it had been before, Li Rong wouldn¡¯t have said such a thing.


    ¡°Since it¡¯s already been delivered right in front of us, it¡¯d be such a pity if we didn¡¯t try.¡±


    Zhou Feng was completely focused as he stared ahead. He could sense three auras in front of them.


    All of them were at the Purple Mansion realm. Apart from that, there were also the auras of several spirit beasts? Those people all had Purple Mansion spirit beasts?


    If that was the case, then this meant that he and Li Rong would have to face six Purple Mansion cultivators.


    And the only one who truly had combat power was Zhou Feng himself. After all, Li Rong was only in the Soul Altar realm.


    Snatching the Heavenly Star from the hands of six Purple Mansion cultivators?


    ¡°This seems to be a bit difficult¡­¡±


    A hint of excitement appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face. He hadn¡¯t had enough of the fight with the Demonic Ghost Brothers.


    Six Purple Mansion experts! He didn¡¯t know if they could test out his limits.


    ¡­


    ¡°The Heavenly Star is shining again! What about the Young Master?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine! We just defeated a group of people. They shouldn¡¯t have come so quickly!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! We just need to hold on for two more days! The mystic realm is about to close!¡±


    Bai Wuyi looked at the floating Heavenly Star, and a relaxed expression appeared on his face.


    As long as he could hold on for a little longer, he would be the winner!


    ¡®Human Emperor Ring! I¡¯m coming!¡¯


    Bai Wuyi was a little excited when he thought about how he would be able to obtain the Human Emperor¡¯s legendary ring.


    Just as Bai Wuyi let down his guard slightly, a powerful aura descended and a figure rushed out from the front.


    This person¡¯s target was the Heavenly Star in the sky!


    ¡°Who is it!?¡±


    This sudden change made Bai Wuyi forcefully take back the Heavenly Star.


    Then, he manifested his phenomenon, and an avatar of a huge eagle fighting a true dragon appeared.


    Other than Bai Wuyi, his two companions also erupted with terrifying auras at the same time.


    The momentum of three people instantly linked together..

 Chapter 217 - What Kind of Insight Is This?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Bai Wuyi wasn¡¯t an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator.


    He was a Purple Mansion cultivator who could manifest a phenomenon. A phenomenon could be said to be a standard for determining whether a Purple Mansion cultivator was strong or not.


    This was because the so-called phenomenon could be said to be the soul, innate divine ability, and the depth of understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.


    Only those with sufficiently strong innate divine abilities, tough souls, and some understanding of the operation of the laws of heaven and earth could manifest a phenomenon.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s phenomenon was a giant eagle fighting a dragon.


    An enormous eagle used a true dragon as its food and toyed with it.


    The pair of wings covered the sky.


    Although it was just an illusive avatar, it radiated a strong power.


    The terrifying predator was slowly approaching like a chariot.


    ¡°So strong!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt the pressure that he had not felt for a long time, and his spirit was jolted.


    This opponent was enough to test his current strength.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s golden flame instantly exploded, and the Blood Qi that was like a sea wave rose like smoke, forcefully pushing Bai Wuyi¡¯s strange phenomenon away a little.


    ¡°Wait for me!¡±


    When Zhou Feng entered battle mode, Li Rong rushed over from behind. She was quite used to his style.


    He did what he said and didn¡¯t hesitate at all. In any case, as long as Zhou Feng was certain, he would immediately take action.


    As for the consequences of doing so, he wouldn¡¯t consider them at all.


    Because before doing so, Zhou Feng had already considered what consequences he would have to bear.


    ¡°The noble daughter of the Li Clan! Then this person¡­¡±


    ¡°Purple Mansion realm! He has already broken through? He broke through in the mystic realm?¡±


    ¡°You want to snatch the Heavenly Star as well?¡±


    As soon as Li Rong appeared, Bai Wuyi and the others all recognized her.


    After all, Li Rong had the Li Clan backing her, so naturally, many people paid attention to her.


    The most important thing was that they should give face to this sort of person. Otherwise, it would be bad if the flood washed over the Dragon King Temple.


    According to the information Bai Wuyi had received, the noble daughter of the Li Clan had contracted some sort of illness and unexpectedly wanted to enter the mystic realm suddenly. She had even given a spot to a vagabond cultivator¡ªthe same vagabond cultivator who had rejected the Li Clan.


    Zhou Feng did not know that Li Rong¡¯s action was extremely risky.


    Not everyone had to follow a clan¡¯s arrangements. After all, all the large clans that did so had disappeared.


    A long time ago, there was once a large clan that had gone through many generations to break up a pair of lovebirds, looking down on a vagabond cultivator.


    In the end, the vagabond cultivator had a fortuitous encounter, and his cultivation reached the heavens. After that, this large clan disappeared.


    After such a long period of trial and error, large clans like the Li Clan actually had many rules.


    So these rules were all for the better continuation of the clan, and for the clan to grow.


    One of the rules was that all direct descendants had a chance to make a choice in life.


    They could only choose once. If their choice failed, they would have no excuse to go against the clan, and the choice was also conditional.


    That was the case for Li Rong¡¯s marriage. She had no way to refuse because this was the reward that Li Rong had to give to the clan.


    After all, Li Rong had enjoyed all kinds of benefits from her clan since she was young.


    However, she could choose the target of the marriage proposal.


    Originally, this rule was already dead in name only. After all, after such a long time, a large clan like the Li Clan would slowly become conservative.


    However, Li Rong had dug out this rule recently.


    There was also the support of the Divine Ability Li Manya. In the end, the Li Clan allowed Li Rong to mess around.


    Otherwise, it would be almost impossible for an outsider like Zhou Feng to enter the mystic realm.


    After all, the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was the most important resource controlled by the four families and the City Lord.


    Bai Wuyi went through the information about Li Rong in his mind. He frowned slightly before ignoring Zhou Feng and speaking to Li Rong. ¡°The eldest daughter of the Li Clan! What do you mean by this? Do you want to compete with our Bai Clan?¡±


    In Bai Wuyi¡¯s opinion, Zhou Feng was not a person who could make decisions. A mere vagrant cultivator who lived off his master was not worthy of talking to him.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s temperament vividly displayed a large clan¡¯s pride.


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    Li Rong did not know how to respond to Bai Wuyi¡¯s question.


    The one in charge of everything now was not her but Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Attack!¡±


    Zhou Feng spoke without waiting for Bai Wuyi and Li Rong to finish their conversation.


    The Blood Qi around his body rose and rushed toward Bai Wuyi.


    ¡°Impudent! A mere vagabond cultivator dares to be so arrogant!?¡±


    Bai Wuyi was still waiting for Li Rong¡¯s response, yet Zhou Feng dared to attack him.


    This was a conversation between the successors of the Bai Clan and Li Clan. There was no room for a mere vagabond cultivator to interrupt them.


    Without even needing the help of the other two people, the strange phenomenon behind Bai Wuyi instantly changed.


    A huge claw descended from the sky. It was as if its ferocious aura wanted to take Zhou Feng¡¯s life.


    Zhou Feng only retaliated with a punch when facing this huge claw.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    A huge explosion erupted, and the airwaves that spread out exploded in all directions.


    Zhou Feng felt as if his body was a piece of metal that was smashed by a sledgehammer.


    His entire body trembled violently, but there were no wounds on his body.


    ¡®Is this the so-called phenomenon? How can I obtain this power?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the terror of the phenomenon.


    ¡°He withstood it!?¡±


    Bai Wuyi had thought that this attack would teach Zhou Feng a good lesson.


    Given his strength, if he used the phenomenon, Zhou Feng, who had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, wouldn¡¯t be able to withstand it for even half a second.


    Of course, in order to give face to the Li Clan, Bai Wuyi had still held back a bit.


    If he beat Zhou Feng to death on the spot, Li Rong wouldn¡¯t be able to save face.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng had blocked this attack and looked like it had not affected him.


    ¡°Young Master, this person is a bit strange! I heard that he could kill someone in the Purple Mansion realm when he was still a Soul Altar cultivator.¡±


    ¡°We absolutely cannot look down on him now that he has broken through to the Purple Mansion realm!¡±


    Bai Wuyi was looking down on Zhou Feng, so the two servants next to him immediately reminded him.


    They knew that their Young Master treated the disciples of large clans with respect and didn¡¯t even spare a glance at vagabond cultivators.


    From the way he spoke earlier, it could be seen that Bai Wuyi couldn¡¯t even bother to talk to Zhou Feng.


    Instead, he directly spoke to Li Rong, who was behind him.


    ¡°Interesting! You don¡¯t have to attack! Let my little falcon play with this person!¡±


    Bai Wuyi adjusted his state of mind and restrained his aura.


    To him, preserving the Heavenly Star in his hand was the best outcome. He didn¡¯t have to waste too much time and energy on this person.


    He couldn¡¯t waste his energy on this piece of trash. He had to save it to deal with his real opponents.


    The Bright Jade Falcon resting on his arm was more than enough to deal with this person.


    Although Zhou Feng had successfully withstood a simple attack from Bai Wuyi, the latter still looked down on Zhou Feng from the bottom of his heart.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect the noble daughter of the Li Clan to take a fancy to this kind of trash. It¡¯s really a disgrace to our four great clans!


    ¡°Is it because he¡¯s a little handsome?¡±


    Bai Wuyi despised Li Rong in his heart.. What kind of judgment was this?

 Chapter 218 - Killing Is Killing!

    Bai Wuyi was backed by the Bai Clan, one of the four great families in Heavenly Star City. They were famous for selling spirit beasts.


    It could be said bluntly that the Bai Clan was involved in all the spirit beast transactions near Heavenly Star City.


    Not only did the Bai Clan have the method to cultivate spirit beasts, but they also had a secret technique to tame spirit beasts.


    When the members of the Bai Clan went out, they would bring a spirit beast to help themselves.


    As for direct descendants like Bai Wuyi, they would also have a life-bound spirit beast.


    They would raise it from a young age, and then grow together, becoming the most important companion on the path of cultivation.


    The little falcon that Bai Wuyi was talking about was the falcon resting on his arm.


    This falcon was a Bright Jade Falcon, an ancient mutant species. When it matured, it would grow to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    The most obvious characteristic of this falcon was its pair of sharp jade claws. They looked like Jade, but in reality, they were incomparably sharp.


    ere


    Cutting through gold and breaking jade wasn¡¯t a problem. Who knew how many people had died at the hands of this pair of sharp jade claws.


    ¡°Little Radiance! Go play!¡±


    Bai Wuyi retracted his aura and slightly raised his arm.


    In an instant, the Bright Jade Falcon turned into an afterimage.


    ¡°A Purple Mansion spirit beast?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately sensed the aura of the Bright Jade Falcon.


    The Bright Jade Falcon left countless afterimages in the air as it flew at breakneck speed.


    If one¡¯s reaction wasn¡¯t fast enough, then the Bright Jade Falcon would play them to their deaths.


    There was once a vagabond cultivator who had made a breakthrough to the Purple Mansion realm with great difficulty but encountered Bai Wuyi¡¯s spirit beast.


    In the end, he was slowly clawed to death. When he was about to die, countless scratches were left on the vagabond cultivator¡¯s body.


    That miserable appearance had caused countless people to feel a chill down their spines.


    If this Bright Jade Falcon was used against others, it would indeed be very useful.


    It was small and swift. If ordinary cultivators didn¡¯t have any special techniques, it would be challenging to block this Bright Jade Falcon¡¯s attack.


    Zhou Feng, however, found it effortless to deal with this Bright Jade Falcon.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s perception was abnormal due to the passive Master Hunter. He hadn¡¯t paid much attention to it before, so he was dumbfounded when he discovered he had already stacked 60 hunting marks.


    He didn¡¯t know when he had killed so many different lifeforms.


    Given his current perception, even if a spiritual artifact interfered with his perception, Zhou Feng could faintly sense it. Simultaneously, this effect was boosted by his Battle Instinct.


    His body was faster than his brain, and he could react swiftly.


    Combining the passive Master Hunter and Battle Instincts, Zhou Feng was the least afraid of a fast spirit beast like the Bright Jade Falcon.


    After circling for a while, Bright Jade Falcon seized the opportunity and dove to attack Zhou Feng¡¯s back.


    ¡®It¡¯s coming!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body jumped.


    His body helped him make the choice, and he leaned to the side.


    He predicted the Bright Jade Falcon¡¯s trajectory.


    In the next instant, the jade- like sharp claws pierced toward Zhou Feng¡¯s chest.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body, which he had felt was indestructible, was slashed open.


    The Bright Jade Falcon¡¯s claws were too sharp and sliced Zhou Feng¡¯s powerful body in an instant.


    ¡°Caught you! Zhou Feng¡¯s lips curled up slightly, revealing a sinister smile.


    From the perspective of others, the Bright Jade Falcon seemed to have pounced into Zhou Feng¡¯s embrace.


    Bai Wuyi, who had originally wanted to see how his little falcon would toy with Zhou Feng, exclaimed, ¡°Impossible! This is impossible!¡±


    How was this possible!


    How could his Bright Jade Falcon be caught!?


    The Bright Jade Falcon in Zhou Feng¡¯s arms let out a miserable screech. That screech could be described as one of terror.


    This was because Zhou Feng had broken its


    wings.


    The strength that this Bright Jade Falcon unleashed when it resisted was terrifying, and it almost broke free in that instant.


    ¡°Divine Eagle split the sky!¡±


    Bai Wuyi was anxious! A strange phenomenon appeared behind him, and he immediately rushed toward Zhou Feng.


    The Bright Jade Falcon had grown up with him since young, and it could even be described as a companion spirit beast.


    Now that its wings were broken, Bai Wuyi could only feel blood dripping from his heart.


    At the same time, he was regretful. He had underestimated this person, causing the little falcon to suffer such pain.


    ¡°I will break your four limbs! No! It¡¯s five limbs! Then, I will put them into the medicine jar and make you beg for death!¡±


    At that moment, the clear and bright sky appeared to have been cut open by someone.


    A sharp aura descended onto the ground. Three rays of light flashed past, leaving behind only a faint white trail.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was immediately cut open, and three huge wounds appeared. A large amount of blood oozed out of his wounds while his entire body was sent flying until he crashed into a small hill.


    ¡°Ah! Big Brother Zhou!¡± Li Rong screamed when she saw this tragic scene.


    However, before Li Rong could do anything, Bai Wuyi flew toward the small hill that Zhou Feng had crashed into.


    ¡°Let go of Little Radiance!¡±


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s expression was grave as Zhou Feng had not let go of the Bright Jade Falcon.


    ¡°It really hurts!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi was being consumed as the three wounds started to heal.


    Zhou Feng had just burned a small amount of Human Emperor Blood, and his body exuded a golden light.


    After burning his Human Emperor Blood, the Bright Jade Falcon in his deadly embrace had no chance to resist at all.


    He grabbed its neck and fiercely twisted it!


    Although the Bright Jade Falcon could grow to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm when it reached adulthood, it was still too weak right now.


    Zhou Feng seized the opportunity and twisted the Bright Jade Falcon¡¯s neck in an instant.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death! You¡¯re courting death! Ah!¡±


    Sensing the aura of the Bright Jade Falcon gradually disappearing, Bai Wuyi fell into a state of madness. Originally, Bai Wuyi didn¡¯t participate in their battle because he was a little cautious.


    Once Zhou Feng threatened him with the Bright Jade Falcon in his hand, he really did not know what to do.


    However, who would have thought that this madman Zhou Feng would kill the Bright Jade Falcon without saying a word?


    He did not cherish such an excellent opportunity to threaten Bai Wuyi!


    Now that the Bright Jade Falcon was no longer a threat, Bai Wuyi did not have any reservations.


    ¡°Again!¡±


    Zhou Feng casually threw the Bright Jade Falcon away, and the aura around him grew more and more terrifying.


    The injuries he had just sustained were now completely healed.


    To him, the Bright Jade Falcon was a huge threat.


    If he did not take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate this threat, the Bright Jade Falcon would cooperate with Bai Wuyi later.


    Not to mention that the Bright Jade Falcon didn¡¯t have any intention of holding back earlier. It looked as if it wanted to dig out his heart on the spot.


    If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that his physical body was strong enough, he probably wouldn¡¯t have been able to withstand the Bright Jade Falcon¡¯s claws.


    Therefore, in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, he only took care of one enemy. There was nothing wrong with that.


    As for using the Bright Jade Falcon to threaten Bai Wuyi, Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t thought about this at all.

 Chapter 219 - One Punch Works

    Chapter 219 One Punch Works


    ¡°Good! Good! Good!¡±


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s entire body was trembling.


    It had been a long time since he had been so angry.


    The Bright Jade Falcon he had been raising for so many years died here due to his carelessness. This was simply a humiliation.


    At that moment, Bai Wuyi was like a volcano that was about to erupt. His entire body¡¯s aura was condensed together.


    ¡®I have to end this battle quickly!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not want to drag this on any longer because he had burned the few drops of Human Emperor Blood in his body.


    If this dragged on any longer, he was afraid that he would be burned dry.


    Coincidentally, during this period, his two most important passive skills, Fighting Spirit and Adaptive Shell, were stacked to the max.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had increased by 30%, while the damage he received had been reduced by 25%.


    There was also the passive Invincible Aura he had recently obtained. Although this passive skill¡¯s description was vague, he could clearly feel that something was being nurtured in his body.


    If he could defeat Bai Wuyi, then he would be able to speed up the nurturing process.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s anger had already overwhelmed his rationality.


    The huge eagle behind him seemed to have come to life, its aura crushing towardZhou Feng


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi was absorbed, and Zhou Feng felt a huge pressure from all directions.


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t afraid at all. Golden light exploded from his body, and his fair and tender body seemed to burst out with terrifying power.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    ¡°Clang!¡±


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    The two instantly clashed, and the shockwaves of the battle shattered the surrounding small hills. The tall trees naturally weren¡¯t spared.


    Each ofBai Wuyi¡¯s attacks contained an incomparably sharp aura that seemed capable of tearing apart everything.


    Most of the surrounding environment had been destroyed by Bai Wuyi. His every move was like a natural disaster.


    Starting from the Purple Mansion realm, the influence of cultivators on the world was becoming greater and greater. For a Purple Mansion realm cultivator, something like shattering a small hill was just a small matter.


    If Bai Wuyi¡¯s attacks were said to be like the waves of the great ocean, endless and powerful, then Zhou Feng was like a divine needle that could stabilize the ocean, no matter how the boundless ocean changed.


    He did not change at all. His terrifying physical body, coupled with all kinds of damage reduction and passive skills, withstood all the attacks.


    ¡®Damn it! How is it possible to cultivate such a physical body!?¡¯


    Bai Wuyi did not expect Zhou Feng to be so powerful.


    He had already unleashed all his power, with no intention of holding back at all.


    His soul was fully controlling the power of heaven and earth, and the avatar behind him had already reached its limit.


    However, Zhou Feng was like a tenacious cockroach that refused to die.


    Moreover, his aura did not weaken in the slightest.


    Such a stalemate was disadvantageous for Bai Wuyi.


    This was because, besides Zhou Feng, Bai Wuyi also had to be on guard against the others that had entered the mystic realm.


    There were also a few people who were more difficult to deal with.


    Now that he had lost the Bright Jade Falcon, it was equivalent to losing an important combatant.


    At the same time, he was being held back by Zhou Feng. Under such circumstances, it was too difficult to protect the Heavenly Star.


    ¡®Don¡¯t tell me I have to waste a trump card to deal with this person!?¡¯


    After a round of exchanges, Bai Wuyi¡¯s bloodshot head slowly calmed down.


    It was not worth wasting a vital trump card to defeat such a person.


    He had to forsake this battle and protect the Heavenly Star. As for taking revenge against Zhou Feng, he was not in a hurry.


    As long as Zhou Feng was still in Heavenly Star City, he would not be able to escape, even if the Li Clan was backing him.


    Bai Wuyi also did not believe that the Li Clan would go against the Bai Clan for an outsider.


    ¡®Even if you have extraordinary talent, so what?¡¯


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s heart moved slightly as he discovered Zhou Feng¡¯s fatal weakness-his weak background.


    Even if one had extraordinary talent, a weak background was a huge disadvantage.


    If one relied on the power of the Li Clan, they would have to pay a price.


    It was not a difficult thing to kill Zhou Feng.


    As for making use of his background and not being aboveboard, Bai Wuyi did not care at all.


    A dead person, no matter how talented they used to be, would be a dead person.


    Bai Wuyi, who had been training for many years, had long seen through many problems.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s attacks were not as fierce as before upon thinking of this.


    This change naturally fell into Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    ¡®Has he finally started to feel exhausted?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s endurance had long been enhanced to a very abnormal level because of the passive Whetstone.


    Thus, he still had a lot of physical strength. It was just that the Human Emperor Blood in his body was about to lose its power. He had been passively defending all this while. so he could finally counterattack.


    Zhou Feng punched out, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi was immediately repelled.


    His golden fist was like a mountain, tearing apart Bai Wuyi¡¯s avatar.


    The sudden explosion caught Bai Wuyi off guard.


    He didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to still have the strength to counterattack. But this kind of attack was nothing to Bai Wuyi because he had top-grade spiritual armor on his body. This should be considered a standard item for the disciples of the large clans.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    A portion of the violent power actually passed through all of Bai Wuyi¡¯s defenses and directly struck his physical body.


    This sort of unforeseen event completely exceeded Bai Wuyi¡¯s expectations.


    Purple Mansion cultivators spent most of their energy cultivating their nascent souls. Thus, their bodies weren¡¯t considered powerful. Although they had the assistance of their souls to temper their bodies, they weren¡¯t even worth mentioning when compared to freaks like Zhou Feng.


    The passive Armor-Piercing Spear had been triggered, and its piercing effect caused Bai Wuyi¡¯s entire body.


    The intense pain caused Bai Wuyi¡¯s lips to turn slightly white.


    ¡®Is this his innate divine ability!?¡¯


    Only now did Bai Wuyi remember that this person had never displayed his innate divine ability.


    ¡®He actually couldn¡¯t endure it?¡¯


    After seeing Bai Wuyi¡¯s state, Zhou Feng was surprised.


    This was because the passive Armor-Piercing Spear could only transfer 1% of his power to his target when he attacked.


    And it could only be effective if they were on the same level.


    Since Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t broken through to the Purple Mansion realm during his last two fights with the Wang descendants, the Armor-Piercing Spear had been rendered useless.


    Now that he was a Purple Mansion cultivator, this passive skill could be considered useful again.


    Originally, he was hoping to trigger the passive Armor-Piercing Spear to launch a sneak attack, but he hadn¡¯t expected the effect to be so good.


    This was something Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t thought of before.


    ¡°Not good! The Young Master is in danger!¡±


    When the Bai servants noticed that Bai Wuyi¡¯s complexion changed, they instantly realized that something wasn¡¯t right.


    Unfortunately, it was too late now.


    Since Bai Wuyi was unable to withstand 1% of the punch¡¯s power, Zhou Feng could not let go of this opportunity.


    His fist was like torrential rain. It carried an incomparably wild power as it continuously chased after Bai Wuyi and hammered him.


    After suffering the loss just now, Bai Wuyi no longer dared to let Zhou Feng get close to him.


    Instead, he began to continuously dodge and use a strange phenomenon to separate himself from Zhou Feng.

 Chapter 220 - Zhou Fengs Ultimate Trump Card

    Chapter 220 Zhou Feng¡¯s Ultimate Trump Card


    After Zhou Feng discovered that Bai Wuyi¡¯s physical body wasn¡¯t very strong, he immediately attacked crazily to trigger the passive Armor-Piercing Spear.


    As long as his attacks connected, the armor on Bai Wuyi¡¯s body wouldn¡¯t be of any use.


    Even other defensive methods wouldn¡¯t be able to block the passive Armor-Piercing Spear¡¯s effect.


    The strength bonus from the passive Fighting Spirit increased Zhou Feng¡¯s power, which was then transmitted through the passive Armor-Piercing Spear¡¯s effect.


    What¡¯s more, the passive Adaptive Shell¡¯s damage reduction effect had been maxed out, and Zhou Feng could withstand Bai Wuyi¡¯s attacks.


    Coupled with his Self-Healing Constitution and Whetstone, he was able to wear down Bai Wuyi.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body resisted everything, be it melee or ranged attacks, and he vanquished them with brute force.


    On the other hand, Bai Wuyi seemed to be on the defense.


    ¡®Such a strange attack! What kind of innate divine ability is this!?¡¯


    Bai Wuyi could no longer maintain his calm expression.


    This was because an aura of death was quietly descending


    The thing that depressed him the most was probably Zhou Feng¡¯s innate ability.


    It was very obvious that Bai Wuyi was now treating the passive Armor-Piercing Spear as Zhou Feng¡¯s innate ability. After all, other than innate ability, there was no other explanation for this strange attack.


    Coincidentally, Bai Wuyi¡¯s innate ability was related to raising spirit beasts, which did not have much effect in close-quarters battles.


    Normally, Bai Wuyi¡¯s fighting style was 2-vs-1, with his Bright Jade Falcon deterring his enemy.


    Unfortunately, his spirit beast died in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands because he was careless.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng was once again approaching, Bai Wuyi was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.


    He was a direct descendant of the Bai Clan, but he was unable to defeat a vagabond cultivator?


    He had been suppressing Zhou Feng all this time, but the latter suddenly turned the tables.


    ¡°Young Master!¡±


    The two Purple Mansion Bai servants quickly arrived.


    ¡°Be careful! This person,¡±


    Bai Wuyi was just about to warn these two to be careful of Zhou Feng¡¯s strange attack.


    Zhou Feng suddenly burst with power. It was the best opportunity to finish off Bai Wuyi!


    The two Purple Mansion Bai servants had distracted Bai Wuyi!


    Moreover, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t drag this out any longer.


    If they continued to drag this out, Bai Wuyi would try to flee.


    Thus, Zhou Fengyi hardened his heart and forcefully burned the remaining Human Emperor Blood, turning it into endless Blood


    Qi.


    In any case, he had the passive Unyielding Heart. This sort of injury would only take a moment for him to recover.


    Zhou Feng gnashed his teeth with that thought in mind, and the torrent of Blood Qi transformed into a punch.


    And because of his crazy actions, traces of scarlet blood spurted out of Zhou Feng¡¯s seven orifices.


    ¡°Madman!¡±


    Bai Wuyi was scared silly as Zhou Feng launched a life-or-death blow.


    At that moment, Bai Wuyi felt that he would die on the spot under this punch.


    Bai Wuyi felt that no matter how Zhou Feng had managed to pull this punch, Zhou Feng would die due to the backlash.


    This was simply a madman!


    Was it worth it for a Heavenly Star? To the point of giving up his own life? Was there such a huge enmity between them!


    Bai Wuyi was afraid! How could such a madman still be alive in this world?


    However, Bai Wuyi¡¯s reaction was swift, and he used his trump card.


    This was a protective amulet a mighty Divine Ability expert had blessed. It was able to block a Divine Ability attack at a critical moment.


    Bai Wuyi originally wanted to keep this trump card until he encountered a Divine Ability expert, but it had to be used here.


    In the next instant, a powerful green light shield appeared in front of Bai Wuyi.


    Although this light shield was very thin and looked a little blurry, the specks of light it emitted gave people a feeling that it was unpredictable.


    ¡°This is¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brows knitted into a knot upon seeing this light shield.


    This should be the power of a Divine Ability expert. Would his Armor-Piercing Spear be triggered?


    If his attack was nullified, Zhou Feng would have no choice but to flee.


    Although Zhou Feng always seemed like a madman when fighting, he was thinking clearly.


    Living until the end of time was no joke.


    He had adopted this crazy fighting style to obtain cultivation resources.


    Although he could lead a decent life by relying on all sorts of passive skills, he would at most be able to live for 100 years if his cultivation remained stagnant.


    How could he continue to live like this?


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s background and talent, it would have been impossible for him to break through to the Purple Mansion realm if didn¡¯t put his life on the line.


    The difficulty of being a vagabond cultivator had been mentioned before.


    The trump card that Zhou Feng kept hidden in the deepest part of his body was the self-destruction of a spiritual weapon.


    How powerful would the self-destruction of a supreme-grade spiritual weapon be?


    Most people might not know, because who would be so wasteful as to detonate a supreme-grade spiritual artifact?


    This kind of thing was very difficult to forge, and it would be impossible to detonate without a special method.


    And coincidentally, when the Han Clan¡¯s treasury had fallen into Zhou Feng¡¯s hand, other than the method to refine the Purple Jade Bell, there was also another manual.


    This manual recorded how to turn the Purple Jade Bell into a bomb.


    This was probably because the Han ancestors wanted to prevent others from snatching the spiritual artifact they had painstakingly nurtured.


    Ever since Zhou Feng obtained that manual, he treated the Purple Jade Bell¡¯s self-destruction as his final trump card.


    If the situation was disadvantageous, he might use this trump card to escape the scene quickly.


    In the end, he would only need to rest for a few minutes. Relying on the passive Tenacious Heart, Zhou Feng would recover in a matter of minutes.


    This was his final trump card, but he had never had the chance to use it before.


    ¡°Impossible! This is the power of a Divine Ability expert! His divine ability can ignore the power of a Divine Ability expert!?¡±


    The light shield blocked 99% of the power in Zhou Feng¡¯s explosive punch.


    However, there was still 1% that was not blocked.


    This was the terrifying aspect of the passive Armor-Piercing Spear. It could even ignore the power of a Divine Ability expert if they were not the target.


    Bai Wuyi was sent flying on the spot. The armor on his body was slightly cracked, and his clothes instantly turned into strips of cloth.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s small body could not withstand such a huge amount of power.


    Fortunately, a huge aura erupted from Bai Wuyi¡¯s body at that critical moment.


    Then, the surrounding space twisted, and Bai Wuyi was sent out of the mystic realm.


    ¡°He still didn¡¯t die?¡±


    Zhou Feng only felt his vision turn black. This time, he seemed to have overexerted himself.


    Compared to his condition, he felt even more regretful that he didn¡¯t kill Bai Wuyi on the spot. ¡°Young Master!¡±


    The two Purple Mansion Bai servants immediately took out a jade talisman and crushed it upon seeing this.


    The two of them were also teleported out.


    This battle had finally come to an end.


    From the looks of it, both sides were heavily injured. However, in reality, Zhou Feng fared much better.


    As long as Zhou Feng left the battle, he would recover quickly.


    As for Bai Wuyi, he would have to lie down for at least a few months, and he might even die.

 Chapter 221 - Fly the Coop

    Chapter 221 Fly the Coop


    Zhou Feng was lying limply on the ground as he shouted at Li Rong, ¡°Take the Heavenly Star!¡±


    He was the final victor of this battle, and the spoils of war, Heavenly Star, naturally belonged to him.


    Zhou Feng had already entered a state of disengagement, and his injuries began to recover.


    Li Rong was in a daze for a long time before she finally reacted.


    ¡°Too ruthless!¡¯


    This was the first time Li Rong had seen with her own eyes Zhou Feng¡¯s battle style.


    Was it worth it to be so crazy?


    However, when she saw that Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries were beginning to recover rapidly, Li Rong¡¯s worried heart finally relaxed.


    Zhou Feng took out all sorts of medicinal pills and poured them into his mouth. He wanted to recover his Blood Qi quickly so that his injuries could recover faster.


    After all, the passive Tenacious Heart required Blood Qi.


    Once the Blood Qi was insufficient, the recovery speed would be slowed down.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had made sufficient preparations before entering the mystic realm.


    He relied on the Level-2 Gluttony to constantly digest all kinds of pills and provide an endless stream of Blood Qi. Zhou Feng, whose aura was originally weak, recovered in the blink of an eye.


    Other than the Human Emperor Blood in his body being completely consumed, he was no different from before the battle.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    When Li Rong saw this scene, she was so shocked that she did not know what to say.


    This was a little abnormal!


    Li Rong had witnessed Zhou Feng using all his strength and a self-harming technique to defeat Bai Wuyi.


    He had even forced Bai Wuyi to use the power of a Divine Ability expert.


    Yet, Zhou Feng acted as if nothing had happened in the blink of an eye?


    How was this possible!


    ¡®Such recovery ability¡­ Could it be an innate divine ability?¡¯


    Li Rong did not know what to do at the moment. She just stood by the side and protected Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    After recovering from his injuries, Zhou Feng realized that he had changed slightly.


    It was a very special feeling. He felt that his aura had become even more terrifying.


    Zhou Feng opened his skill panel and discovered that the newly acquired passive skill had actually changed.


    Invincible Aura (Layers: 2)


    The passive Invincible Aura¡¯s description had actually disappeared, and four words were in its place. Now, the passive Invincible Aura had been superimposed by two layers.


    Was it because he had defeated Bai Wuyi?


    Zhou Feng could not figure it out, but no matter what, winning this battle was a good thing for him.


    First, he had snatched the Heavenly Star. As long as he kept it until the mystic realm closed, he could head to the City Lord¡¯s treasury to choose an item.


    This was the resource that he had fought so hard for.


    As mentioned earlier, Zhou Feng wanted to live a long and ¡®miserable¡¯ life.


    This did not conflict with Zhou Feng¡¯s madness because only when one¡¯s strength increased would they be qualified to pursue longevity.


    He acted like a battle junkie in order to fight for resources for himself.


    This was actually a kind of miserable life. In any case, according to Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding, this was the kind of miserable life that belonged to him.


    Zhou Feng did not approve of the kind of survival where one never caused trouble and quietly became invisible, especially in this world where cultivators were everywhere.


    It was absolutely impossible to keep a low profile forever.


    If one was extraordinary, others would discover them sooner or later. There were many smart people in this world.


    The modus operandi of making others think one was a piece of trash until they had the power to slap them in the face took a lot of effort.


    In any case, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t do it. Wouldn¡¯t that be a cheap move?


    It would be better to display most of his strength in such an overbearing manner.


    After all, even if Zhou Feng displayed his full strength, there were still monsters who were more powerful than him. In the eyes of those disciples from large clans, Zhou Feng was a wandering cultivator with good talent.


    A tree that stood out in the forest would be destroyed by the wind? Don¡¯t even think about it. Zhou Feng simply couldn¡¯t reach that level.


    On the contrary, it was Zhou Feng¡¯s behavior that made others think that this was normal.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s tyrannical behavior was a little rough in the eyes of others.


    But it was very in line with the style of a wandering cultivator. Wandering cultivators were like this, thinking of all ways to get resources.


    On the contrary, the more one concealed their abilities and hid from the limelight, the easier it would be to attract the big clans¡¯ attention. ¡®There will always be wicked people who want to harm me.¡¯


    This was the thought that most large clans had always had.


    If one concealed their abilities, the large clans would take it as if said person was plotting against them in the dark.


    Regarding this point, Zhou Feng could be considered to have pondered over it thoroughly.


    Of course, his actions seemed crude and simple to let everyone look down on him. Such a boorish person would sooner or later be defeated in someplace.


    This was a thought that many people had after seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s style of doing things.


    With this thought, he could better get rid of more people.


    Zhou Feng would let others think he was a talented boorish person who fought like a maniac for the resources to improve. By the time someone discovered something was wrong, he would have already obtained new passive skills and improved himself.


    At that time, it would be too late for others to target him.


    Finally, in addition to the above, Zhou Feng also had a crisis expectation.


    To put it simply, if he continued to stay in one place for a long time, his life would be in danger.


    As such, Zhou Feng would escape from this place and find a safe place to hide first.


    Zhou Feng had done this back then in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    The Tri-Gu Sect had been too dangerous for Zhou Feng, who had just started cultivating. That was why he had thought of ways to escape.


    As for why he stayed in Heavenly Star City, it was because this city was relatively safe for Zhou Feng, and he could obtain many cultivation resources.


    Unfortunately, it was time to leave Heavenly Star City.


    ¡®What a pity. I have to find time to leave Heavenly Star City¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was calculating in his heart.


    He felt that an undercurrent had been surging around him the past few days as if many people were staring at him from the shadows.


    The aura of danger had quietly descended.


    Zhou Feng had also formed a grudge with Bai Wuyi, and it was not an exaggeration to say he had offended the Bai Clan.


    Under the circumstances that Bai Wuyi wasn¡¯t dead yet, the Bai Clan would definitely make a move against him.


    Moreover, this case was different from the Li Clan. Zhou Feng had seriously injured Bai Wuyi, and the Bai Clan had a well-deserved cause.


    They would not be like Li Clan, who would not deal with a lone cultivator for the sake of their reputation.


    ¡®I have to escape as soon as possible!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was already planning to escape.


    After leaving the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm and going to the City Lord to choose an item, Zhou Feng would depart from Heavenly Star City quietly.


    As for where Zhou Feng would go, he had already thought of it. He planned to leave Heavenly Star City for the time being and return to the area where the Tri-Gu Sect was to cultivate and take revenge.


    Zhou Feng would never forget his hardships in the Tri-Gu Sect. Had he not obtained all sorts of passive skills, he would not have lived past the day they planted the Bloodthirsty Gu to him.


    There was also that Old Demon Gu¡ªhe had always wanted to devour him.


    Who knew who would devour whom when he returned?


    As for whether or not he would return to Heavenly Star City after this, that would depend on Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation.


    In any case, it was impossible to stay in one place all the time, for the sake of his future cultivation path.


    Zhou Feng had to find information about the Human Emperor Scripture. He didn¡¯t want to stop at the Purple Mansion realm.

 Chapter 222 - The Assimilated Li Rong

    Chapter 222 The Assimilated Li Rong


    ¡°Alright! Let¡¯s resume your training!¡±


    While Zhou Feng was planning what to do after this, his injuries had completely recovered.


    Since there was still some time left, Zhou Feng planned to take advantage of this opportunity and bring along Li Rong to resume her training. After all, he still owed her a great favor. He would help Li Rong and reshape her personality first.


    ¡°G-Good!¡±


    Li Rong fixed her eyes on Zhou Feng, who seemed to be fine.


    In the end, her face was a little numb.


    ¡®He¡¯s really fine?¡¯


    Li Rong now had a clear understanding of Zhou Feng.


    No wonder Zhou Feng was so unrestrained. Given this recovery ability, Zhou Feng would recover no matter how recklessly he fought.


    Li Rong didn¡¯t have any opinions at the moment. She just followed Zhou Feng¡¯s instructions.


    ¡°What!? Young Master Wuyi came out? But the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm hasn¡¯t closed


    yet!¡±


    ¡°Could it be¡­ This is impossible! Is there anyone in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm who could force Young Master Wuyi to such an extent?¡±


    ¡°Is this a direct trigger of the old master¡¯s restriction? Then, did he force him out of the mystic realm?¡±


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s forceful exit from the mystic realm startled the Bai Clan.


    After hearing the news, everyone had incredulous expressions on their faces.


    This was because this was an extremely rare occurrence, and the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was still open.


    There was only one reason for the early exithe had no choice but to withdraw.


    The greatest possibility was that the restriction on Bai Wuyi¡¯s body had been triggered.


    It was a known fact that the four great clans¡¯ Divine Ability experts would place restrictions in the direct descendants¡¯ bodies before they entered the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    Once an accident occurred, these restrictions would be triggered, forcefully bringing people out of the mystic realm.


    After all, the Dao Protectors of these descendants could not enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    They could only place those restrictions in order to ensure their safety.


    If they were outside, it would be very difficult for Zhou Feng to kill Bai Wuyi as Dao Protectors protected him from the shadows.


    This showed that the Wang Clan had declined. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Zhou Feng to kill Wang Shu and Wang Jin.


    The deaths of Wang Shu and Wang Jin had also caused the Wang Clan to fall into an unprecedented predicament.


    The deaths of these two direct descendants indicated that the Wang Clan was in such dire straits they could not even assign a Dao Protector.


    The chain reaction caused by this was huge.


    Otherwise, the death of two people would not affect a large clan at all.


    ¡°What? Why are the injuries so serious? Who in this mystic realm can hurt Young Master Wuyi!?¡±


    Following that, a piece of news spread-Bai Wuyi¡¯s bones were shattered, and he had fallen unconscious. Could it be that a Divine Ability expert had also entered the mystic realm?


    Otherwise, with Bai Wuyi¡¯s strength and trump cards, how could he have suffered such serious injuries?


    Soon, the name ¡°Zhou Feng¡± started to spread again.


    ¡°Zhou Feng? Who is this? Why does it sound a little familiar?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I also feel that it sounds a little familiar! Isn¡¯t he that vagabond cultivator?¡±


    ¡°This person is so powerful? I remember that this person is only a Soul Altar cultivator! How did he enter the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm?¡±


    ¡°I heard that he relied on the noble daughter of the Li Clan and that he broke through to the Purple Mansion realm within the mystic realm!


    ¡°The innate ability that he unlocked is a terrifying one. Young Master Wuyi was defeated by this person¡¯s innate ability!¡±


    Although the Bai Clan tried their best to cover up this matter, some details pertaining to the mystic realm were eventually leaked out.


    After all, the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was a modified mystic realm that was used for training.


    The various large clans naturally had the means to know what happened inside the mystic realm.


    Once these details were revealed, Zhou Feng instantly entered everyone¡¯s field of vision once again. Originally, Zhou Feng¡¯s name was gradually fading out of everyone¡¯s minds.


    He was just a vagabond cultivator. Had it not been for the Li Clan, who would have the energy to pay attention to him?


    But now, it was different. He had defeated the direct descendant of the Bai Clan.


    Moreover, it was an utter defeat. There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of exaggeration. Bai Wuyi had even used a Divine Ability expert¡¯s blessing.


    In the end, he was beaten out of the mystic realm and was still unconscious.


    Did he not understand what it meant to be a member of a great clan?


    Such talent! Could it be that a vagabond cultivator genius was about to appear in Heavenly Star City?


    The Bai Clan¡¯s prestige was reduced a little.


    In order to save the Bai Clan¡¯s reputation, the clan naturally shared some details.


    For example, Zhou Feng had defeated Bai Wuyi because he had launched a sneak attack and risked his life.


    Bai Wuyi wasn¡¯t in a good condition, but the same applied to Zhou Feng.


    If both sides suffered heavy losses, everyone could barely accept it. After all, no matter how powerful a vagabond cultivator was, they couldn¡¯t exceed common sense!


    The matter of Zhou Feng defeating Bai Wuyi also affected the Wang Clan and the Li Clan.


    The Wang Clan was the most miserable, especially since Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Purple Mansion realm and defeated the Bai Clan¡¯s direct descendant.


    The already declining Wang Clan suddenly realized they couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng


    Unless the Wang Clan used its final trump card, they would have no way to deal with Zhou Feng as long as he didn¡¯t leave Heavenly Star City.


    The most terrifying thing was that Zhou Feng was a vagabond cultivator with nothing to lose. Even if they wanted to threaten him, they had no target. Moreover, if Zhou Feng was bent on targeting the Wang Clan.


    Given the many properties of the Wang Clan, it was likely that they would suffer heavy losses.


    At present, the Wang Clan could be considered to be riding a tiger.


    Revenge? This might be a little strenuous! No revenge? How would the other clans view the Wang Clan? Therefore, the entire Wang Clan fell silent.


    In any case, almost no one from the younger generation of the Wang Clan clamored to find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    The higher-ups of the Wang Clan also remained silent.


    As for the Li Clan, their prejudice against Zhou Feng weakened a little.


    In any case, they did not object to Li Rong¡¯s decision.


    Zhou Feng did not know anything about the turmoil in the outside world. He was trying his best to stop the others from snatching the Heavenly Star. The mystic realm would close in a couple of days, so more people would come to snatch it.


    Fortunately, these people were not as strong as Bai Wuyi.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was also constantly increasing. Every time he fought, his aura became stronger, while his physical body became more terrifying after each battle he experienced.


    During the day, he fought, and at night, he used the Malevolent Earth Qi to temper his body.


    Zhou Feng spent almost every day fighting in high-intensity battles. He was fine, but Li Rong was exhausted.


    In the end, he asked Li Rong to act as support. Even if someone recognized Li Rong, no one would hold back.


    In the beginning, not only did Zhou Feng waste his energy to take care of Li Rong but she was often injured.


    Under such great pressure and in order to not drag down Zhou Feng, Li Rong¡¯s potential was stimulated, her actions were more refined and direct, and her combat experience skyrocketed.

 Chapter 223 - Mystic Realm: Closed

    Chapter 223 Mystic Realm: Closed


    Zhou Feng had already reshaped Li Rong¡¯s personality.


    In the past, she would get flustered and reluctant during battle.


    Now, however, a cold expression was plastered on her face, and she did not utter a single word!


    At the same time, her actions were ruthless enough. She didn¡¯t possess Zhou Feng¡¯s astonishing healing ability, so she was extremely cautious when it came to positioning herself, defending, or attacking.


    Zhou Feng held the front while Li Rong acted as the perfect support character.


    Zhou Feng felt that he could display more than 100% of his strength with Li Rong¡¯s support.


    At that moment, he suddenly realized that having someone who specialized in supporting him was cool!


    That was especially since Li Rong had a technique that specialized in supporting battles.


    Coupled with that pile of top-grade spiritual artifacts, Li Rong¡¯s lethality was not low.


    Soon, almost everyone in the mystic realm was taught a lesson by Zhou Feng and Li Rong¡¯s combination.


    Zhou Feng took the initiative to find others to battle toward the end. He couldn¡¯t wait for others to come and find him.


    ¡®Invincible Aura! It has reached 25 layers!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng glanced at the skill panel and found that he had unknowingly stacked the passive Invincible Aura 25 times.


    The most obvious change was that a hazy shadow had appeared behind Zhou Feng.


    ¡°A phenomenon? Brother Zhou, are you about to manifest an avatar!?¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s face was full of shock again upon noticing the shadow behind Zhou Feng.


    Although Zhou Feng had shocked her countless times, Li Rong couldn¡¯t help but widen her eyes and reveal an incredulous expression this time.


    The shadow behind Zhou Feng had just appeared. It was clearly the embryonic form of the phenomenon.


    Although Li Rong wasn¡¯t very interested in cultivation before, as the noble daughter of the Li Clan, she had access to cultivation knowledge and had a clear understanding of some things.


    This shadow was the embryonic form before the phenomenon was formed.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s strength grew stronger, this shadow would become more and more solid.


    In the end, it would turn into a strange phenomenon and manifest as an avatar, like Bai Wuyi¡¯s. Once it was unleashed, its power would be terrifying.


    ¡°Oh? This is a phenomenon?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brows raised slightly.


    This phantom was the embryonic form of a phenomenon?


    If that was the case, then didn¡¯t this mean that the more layers were added to his passive Invincible Aura, the more and more solid his phenomenon would become?


    It was actually like this!


    ¡®Other than this Invincible Aura, Soul Harvesting has also been triggered a few times¡­!


    Compared to a few days ago, his strength could be described as having improved by leaps and bounds.


    Due to his several growth-type passive skills, Zhou Feng¡¯s power slowly increased on a daily basis.


    Not to mention his physical body, just the passive Soul Harvesting was sufficient to be described as abnormal.


    Zhou Feng not only had a terrifying physical body, but his soul wasn¡¯t too far off either. An endless stream of soul power was nourishing his nascent soul.


    The only pity was that he didn¡¯t have suitable battle arts or soul-related cultivation techniques.


    The Blood-Burning Technique and Spiritual Attachment Art were useless now. They were too crude and their limit was the Soul Altar realm.


    After reaching the Purple Mansion realm, just a simple punch of his would be better than using them.


    However, as long as he left the mystic realm¡­


    He would be able to make a trip to the City Lord¡¯s treasury. At that time, he could see if there were any techniques that were suitable for him.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t afraid of not finding anything good.


    Don¡¯t forget, he had the passive Appraising Eye. He could tell at a glance what item was of high value.


    ¡®I will leave Heavenly Star City after picking something useful.¡¯


    Zhou Feng glanced at Li Rong and was a little hesitant. His sharp senses told him that there would be a great change in Heavenly Star City.


    He had offended the Bai Clan, so it was best for him to stay out of the limelight. But should he tell Li Rong about his plans?


    ¡®Leaving without saying goodbye seemed a little¡­ Forget it!¡¯


    After hesitating for a while, Zhou Feng decided to tell Li Rong about this matter. He was not a dilettante.


    ¡°Oh right, I have something to tell you.¡±


    Li Rong was surveilling their surroundings when he spoke, and she instantly turned her attention to him.


    Her long hair that usually cascaded down her back was now tied into a long ponytail. The armor on her body only protected her vital parts, revealing large patches of snow-white skin.


    The pure and lovely temperament from before had been completely worn away, replaced by a valiant aura.


    Coupled with her sharp eyes, she gave off a cold and noble temperament.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was as still as water, yet Li Rong¡¯s hot figure slightly attracted him now as she stood there.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    A trace of curiosity appeared between Li Rong¡¯s brows because Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was somewhat strange.


    Zhou Feng had never displayed such an expression before.


    ¡°I¡¯ll probably leave Heavenly Star City in two days.¡±


    Li Rong fell silent.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brows furrowed upon seeing this, and he took the initiative to explain. ¡°I¡¯ll be back after a while. I just have to take care of some matters.¡±


    It wasn¡¯t that he didn¡¯t want to return to Heavenly Star City. He just wanted to avoid the limelight.


    He would return after a while. After all, Heavenly Star City was the best place to obtain cultivation resources for the time being.


    Perhaps, he would leave Heavenly Star City when his cultivation level was high and go to other places to temper himself.


    Li Rong lowered her head and replied with a simple word, ¡°Oh¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say anything in response.


    Li Rong had helped him a lot, especially when she was under the immense pressure of her clan.


    Zhou Feng knew that he could not leave without saying goodbye. Li Rong was also considered his first true friend. Some things needed to be clarified to avoid causing any misunderstandings.


    However, what Zhou Feng did not know was that the corner of Li Rong¡¯s mouth was slightly raised as she lowered her head.


    ¡®My aunt is right! Sometimes, we can¡¯t be too proactive!


    ¡®Brother Zhou took the initiative to explain why he wants to leave Heavenly Star City. This means that I have a lot of weight in Brother Zhou¡¯s heart. Otherwise, he would not have told me anything.¡¯


    The two of them did not speak, and the surroundings became quiet.


    After a while¡­


    It was time for the mystic realm to close!


    The Heavenly Star in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand was suddenly sucked away! Then, the two of them were expelled from the mystic realm.


    This experiential training was over!


    Zhou Feng could be said to be the biggest winner. He had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, obtained the Malevolent Earth Qi Core, stacked many of his growth-type passive skills, and guarded the Heavenly Star successfully.


    He didn¡¯t need to worry about not having any resources to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture for some time.


    The only thing that was left now was to enter the City Lord¡¯s treasury.


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s god-sent fortuitous encounter!


    If not for this opportunity, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have been able to break through to the Purple Mansion realm. He didn¡¯t know how long it might have taken him to accomplish this.


    How long had it taken him to shed his mortal self and reach the Purple Mansion realm? Less than a year! If the disciples of the great clans of Heavenly Star City knew that Zhou Feng had only cultivated for less than a year¡­ their eyeballs would probably fall out.


    From a mortal to the Purple Mansion realm in less than a year? Are you kidding me!?

 Chapter 224 - Giving Good Medicine to a Beauty

    Chapter 224 Giving Good Medicine to a Beauty


    After leaving the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm, Zhou Feng received a token with which he could enter the City Lord¡¯s treasury and choose a treasure inside.


    Apart from this, Zhou Feng naturally received an invitation from the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    If he wanted, he could immediately join the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    After becoming a member of the City Lord¡¯s mansion, they would provide him with cultivation resources in the future.


    However, Zhou Feng also had to bear the corresponding responsibility. Naturally, Zhou Feng refused to give up his freedom in exchange for a few resources.


    It was not his style.


    Zhou Feng would bid farewell to Li Rong and return to his residence to tidy up his things.


    After giving some instructions to the servants, he would head to the City Lord¡¯s treasury to choose an item and leave Heavenly Star City before nightfall.


    ¡°I¡¯ll be leaving first.¡±


    Zhou Feng did not have the intention of dragging things out, so he hurriedly left after saying that.


    Following the closure of the mystic realm, the legend of Zhou Feng also reached its peak.


    This was because all the people who had entered the mystic realm to train had basically fought with Zhou Feng.


    And they had all been taught a lesson.


    ¡°What? Zhou Feng is fine!?¡±


    ¡°He even fought with numerous people later? Impossible!¡±


    ¡°Didn¡¯t they say that he and Young Master Wuyi sustained grievous injuries? How come¡­¡±


    II


    II


    The Bai Clan was now in an awkward situation because they had previously claimed that Bai Wuyi and Zhou Feng were both injured.


    Although Bai Wuyi had been beaten out of the mystic realm, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t fare well either.


    But now, this kind of explanation made people feel like they were being stubborn.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng appeared to be completely fine. He didn¡¯t even have any injuries! This was a bit too exaggerated!


    Could it be that Bai Wuyi had really been crushed by a vagabond cultivator?


    And this vagabond cultivator had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s reputation soared even higher!


    As usual, Zhou Feng chose to ignore the rumors from the outside world. He gave instruction to his servants and then headed to his little store.


    He found that the store was busy as usual.


    This is¡­


    Logically speaking, Zhou Feng¡¯s store should have been empty as he had not refined any pills for sale before entering the mystic realm.


    Why were there still so many people lining up?


    ¡°Young Master! You¡¯re back!¡±


    Qian Shang happened to come over. When he saw Zhou Feng, his face revealed a happy expression.


    Qian Shang was a little flustered before. After all, it was too dangerous in Heavenly Star City. When Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t around, Qian Shang was always worried that someone would deliberately look for trouble.


    Now, Zhou Feng was back.


    Moreover, his precious daughter had also learned the art of pill refinement.


    This was really too good.


    Qian Shang was currently exhilarated. He could finally live a stable life.


    ¡°I have something to tell you,¡± said Zhou Feng


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Qian Shang was stunned. He had a bad feeling in his heart for some reason.


    Zhou Feng entered the shop and took a look at the things in his storage ring first.


    If he wanted, he could depart anytime now.


    It was worth mentioning that Zhou Feng had asked for an extremely detailed map from Li | Rong.


    This map recorded all the locations around Heavenly Star City in great detail, so Zhou Feng would not be like a headless fly.


    This kind of map could only be obtained by the disciples of large clans.


    Zhou Feng had given Li Rong a lot of good things in exchange for this map.


    Among them, the most important one was the Carefree Powder 5.0, which he had researched previously.


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t misread! Zhou Feng had gifted his aphrodisiac powder to Li Rong.


    The Carefree Powder 5.0 was only a part of it. He also gave her a lot of poison.


    It could be imagined that when Zhou Feng explained what the Carefree Powder 5.0 was, Li Rong¡¯s young mind suffered a great impact.


    But let¡¯s not talk about anything else first. This Carefree Powder 5.0 was handy against Soul Altar cultivators.


    In particular, no one could ever imagine that a noble daughter of the Li Clan like Li Rong would actually use such a thing.


    In matters like poisoning, besides the poison itself, the person who used the poison was also crucial.


    When some people faced the disciples of large clans, they subconsciously let down their guard.


    This was because these disciples usually had pride and would not resort to such despicable methods.


    Li Rong could make use of this mentality.


    Anyway, Zhou Feng did not care whether Li Rong would use it or not.


    To Zhou Feng, it did not matter whether it was despicable or not. As long as it was useful, it was enough!


    There was nothing despicable when it came to preserving one¡¯s life.


    At that time, although Li Rong¡¯s face betrayed a mix of complicated emotions, she still kept the Carefree Powder 5.0.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Let¡¯s go!¡± said Zhou Feng.


    Big Yellow had grown to the size of an adult dog, but it had not reached the adolescent stage yet.


    Nonetheless, the current Big Yellow already had a certain level of combat ability, and it seemed its Mountain Spirit Hound talent had been developed.


    Zhou Feng believed that Big Yellow would definitely be able to provide him with a lot of help while he was out training.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses and Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell, it would be impossible for anyone to launch a sneak attack.


    Qian Shang and Qian Qianqian were waiting for Zhou Feng in the back room.


    Qian Shang approached Zhou Feng when he entered the room and handed over a storage bag. ¡°Young Master, these are the Spirit Stones the store earned these past few days. All of them are here!¡±


    As an old merchant, Qian Shang was well-aware that he must show his ability to earn money to his backer. Only then would he not be easily abandoned.


    §Ö§Ñ§ä


    V


    ¡°Spirit Stones¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng opened the storage bag and found that there were quite a lot of Spirit Stones inside.


    There were more than 200,000 Spirit Stones. After all, Zhou Feng had not been around during this period.


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    Zhou Feng put half of the Spirit Stones in his storage ring


    Then, he threw the storage bag at Qian Shang.


    ¡°I¡¯m going to leave Heavenly Star City and close the shop temporarily. I have many enemies in Heavenly Star City, so you should keep a low profile during this period!¡±


    A trace of worry instantly appeared on Qian Shang¡¯s face.


    ¡®What happened? Why does he suddenly want to leave Heavenly Star City!?¡¯


    ¡°This is a pill refinement technique. I think your talent is pretty good, don¡¯t waste it.¡±


    Zhou Feng then threw the pill refinement technique he had gotten from Pill MAster Yuan to Qian Qianqian.


    In any case, he wasn¡¯t very interested in pill refinement techniques. It just so happened that Qian Qianqian¡¯s talent seemed to be decent, so he handed it to her.


    ¡°Alright, that¡¯s it. I¡¯m leaving!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng had finished dealing with the matters in the small shop, he would head to the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    After selecting an item in the City Lord¡¯s Mansion¡¯s treasury, he would immediately leave Heavenly Star City.


    Since he had already made a decision, he naturally had to be quick.

 Chapter 225 - Human Emperor Ring

    Chapter 225 Human Emperor Ring


    After giving out all the instructions, Zhou Feng headed straight to the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    Speaking of the City Lord¡¯s mansion in Heavenly Star City, he really hadn¡¯t been there once.


    The City Lord¡¯s mansion was located at the very center of the inner city.


    Normally, almost no one would approach it.


    Moreover, there was a great formation protecting it at all times, and the atmosphere was slightly oppressive.


    If it weren¡¯t for something important, an ordinary person would not approach the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    Zhou Feng held the token that he obtained from the Heavenly Star Secret Realm.


    Zhou Feng did not encounter any obstructions along the way and was only allowed to enter the City Lord¡¯s mansion after a few inspections.


    ¡®It¡¯s so oppressive¡­!


    After entering the City Lord¡¯s mansion, Zhou Feng instantly felt an oppressive atmosphere.


    Even the Spiritual Qi in his entire body was suppressed. This was probably related to the grand formation around the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    It was unknown whether the City Lord¡¯s mansion had always been like this, or if the situation was special.


    Zhou Feng also didn¡¯t think too much and remained silent the entire time as he followed the people of the City Lord¡¯s mansion.


    They soon arrived at the treasury, where a person who looked like a steward was waiting for them.


    ¡°You only have the time to burn an incense stick. I hope you won¡¯t do anything stupid!¡±


    Zhou Feng had to choose an item from the treasury and leave the City Lord¡¯s estate quickly.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say anything but nodded silently.


    In the next instant, the token in his hand emitted a blinding light, and the treasury door slowly opened.


    No one seemed to be guarding the treasury, but Zhou Feng could clearly sense several auras were already locked on him.


    ¡®Danger!


    His body¡¯s instinct frantically warned Zhou Feng that this place was extremely dangerous.


    He had to leave as soon as possible.


    A feeling of fear and trepidation quickly emerged.


    This feeling was as if there was a bottomless abyss ahead.


    It was too frightening!


    Zhou Feng had been feeling that something was wrong from the start.


    Even if the City Lord¡¯s mansion was more solemn, it shouldn¡¯t be so depressing.


    And why were there so few people along the way?


    The City Lord¡¯s mansion was such a big place, so there shouldn¡¯t be a lack of servants.


    Why were there so few people?


    ¡®Forget it. Let¡¯s hurry up and pick something!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t dare to waste any more time. He took a step and entered the treasury.


    This simple step seemed to pierce through a layer of membrane.


    Then, a huge space appeared before his eyes.


    There was heaven and earth inside!


    This seemingly ordinary treasure vault actually contained heaven and earth inside?


    On the outside, it seemed to be only the size of a room, but the space inside was actually frighteningly large.


    Moreover, it was divided into categories, and all sorts of things, from spiritual artifacts to cultivation techniques, were placed inside.


    However, some things were directly blocked by a light screen.


    It was impossible to see what was inside at all.


    Although Zhou Feng was allowed to choose something from the treasury, there were some invisible restrictions.


    He was unable to choose whatever he wanted.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng was somewhat prepared


    ¡®Appraising Eye! Open!¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately activated his Appraising Eye.


    His first choice was naturally cultivation techniques, which he lacked. The only cultivation technique he possessed was the first half of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    (Virtual Soul Travel: A cultivation technique from a mighty Divine Ability figure. After cultivating it, one can travel through the world at breakneck speed.


    Flaw: Difficult to cultivate as one needs a special bloodline.)


    ¡®A speed-type cultivation technique¡­ Special bloodline?¡¯


    To be honest, Zhou Feng lacked a speed-type cultivation technique.


    Unfortunately, it required a special bloodline to cultivate it.


    Zhou Feng continued reading and discovered that the cultivation techniques recorded here were at least left behind by a Divine Ability expert.


    However, these cultivation techniques had great limitations. They either required a special bloodline or special conditions.


    Zhou Feng frowned the more he read because these things didn¡¯t seem to suit him. They were either too difficult to learn or incompatible with the Human Emperor Scripture.


    ¡®Troublesome¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng walked straight to the spiritual artifacts¡¯ area.


    ¡®Eh? This thing¡­¡¯


    As soon as Zhou Feng approached that area, the Human Emperor Blood in his body became restless.


    Then, he saw a ring.


    ¡®This ring could actually resonate with my body?¡¯


    Zhou Feng took a look with the Appraising Eye.


    (Human Emperor Ring: A ring once worn by the first Human Emperor. The material is only ordinary bluestone, but it became extraordinary because of the Human Emperor¡¯s aura.]


    ¡®Human Emperor Ring? A ring once worn by the Human Emperor?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not expect he would find items from the Human Emperor in this treasury.


    ¡®The material is ordinary, but it became extraordinary because of the Human Emperor¡¯s aura?


    ¡®Should I pick this or not?¡¯


    Zhou Feng could not tell what the ring was used for, but this was still an item the first Human Emperor used to wear.


    The first Human Emperors was the strongest person in the world. No matter how bad this item may be, it should not be that bad since the Human Emperor had been wearing it.


    Zhou Feng hesitated for a moment. He told himself he would definitely regret it if he gave up on this ring.


    ¡®I¡¯ll take it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng gnashed his teeth, picked the Human Emperor Ring, and left the treasury decisively.


    Then, he left the City Lord¡¯s mansion under the servants¡¯ escort and did not even look at the Human Emperor Ring he had just obtained.


    Zhou Feng then departed from Heavenly Star.


    Since he was leaving Heavenly Star City, he could not be so wishy-washy. From the time he left the mystic realm to the time he departed from Heavenly Star City, Zhou Feng had only spent a few hours.


    No one would have thought that Zhou Feng would suddenly leave the city.


    The moment the Bai Can learned that Zhou Feng had exited the mystic realm, they began to make their move.


    As one of the four great clans in Heavenly Star City, the power that the Bai Clan possessed was different from that of the Wang Clan.


    The Wang Clan didn¡¯t dare to make a move in Heavenly Star City, but the Bai Clan did!


    Some of the city guards were from the Bai Clan, after all.


    Apart from that, Monk Ruo Sheng, who had met Zhou Feng once, was also looking for traces of Zhou Feng.


    If Zhou Feng had left a little later, he would have been surrounded.


    Fortunately, he had sensed that something wasn¡¯t right and departed from Heavenly Star City with Big Yellow.


    Zhou Feng could perfectly blend into the surrounding environment in the wild due to his passive Nature Affinity.


    It would be challenging for ordinary people to find him.


    After he was hundreds of miles away from Heavenly Star City, Zhou Feng followed his usual practice of searching for a cave first.


    Once he found the cave, he would drill into it, set up a few warning formations outside, and then put on a simple disguise.


    After doing all this, Zhou Feng felt the lingering sense of crisis slowly disappear.


    The reason he was so decisive and directly slipped out of Heavenly Star City was that he could sense a crisis looming over his head.


    If he did not leave quickly, Zhou Feng felt that he would die in Heavenly Star City.


    Therefore, after leaving the mystic realm, the first thing he did was to flee.


    From the looks of it, there should be no problem with his decision.


    The sense of crisis disappeared, and Zhou Feng could finally free his hands to take a look at the Human Emperor Ring he had just obtained.

 Chapter 226 - Land of Heritage

    Chapter 226 Land of Heritage


    Zhou Feng took out the Human Emperor Ring that he had just obtained and examined it carefully.


    This ring was made of ordinary bluestone, did not have any special patterns, looked rough, and had not been polished for a long time.


    If not for the faint golden light it emitted, Zhou Feng would have thought it was a simple ring


    The golden light it slowly emitted gave Zhou Feng a familiar feeling.


    ¡®It¡¯s not that different¡­¡¯


    He held the ring and observed it for a long time, but he could not see any difference.


    Should he inject Spiritual Qi into it?


    After thinking for a while, he circulated his Spiritual Qi and began to inject it into the ring


    ¡®It¡¯s useless?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned as the ring seemed to be extremely resistant to Spiritual Qi. It could not be infused into it at all.


    ¡®Could it be Blood Qi?¡¯


    Since he could not infuse Spiritual Qi into it, he circulated his Blood Qi.


    This infusion had an effect.


    The stone outer layer of the ring fell off. In its place was a jade stone carved with strange patterns.


    This jade stone was blood-red with gold threads!


    ¡®Appraising Eye!¡¯


    Zhou Feng used his Appraising Eye to check the ring again.


    (Human Emperor Ring of Inheritance: It contains the secrets of the Human Emperor¡¯s inheritance!)


    ¡®It changed? Ring of inheritance? The inheritance of the Human Emperor is recorded in this ring?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth opened slightly. He was shocked.


    This ring contained the legendary Human Emperor¡¯s inheritance.


    If it wasn¡¯t fake, then wouldn¡¯t Zhou Feng be able to obtain the complete inheritance of the legendary Human Emperor?


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s heartbeat sped up, and he subconsciously looked around to make sure that no one was nearby.


    Although he was in the cave and there was no one around, he still subconsciously looked around.


    ¡®Then where is the Human Emperor¡¯s inheritance?¡¯


    Zhou Feng poured Blood Qi into the ring again.


    After the ring absorbed enough Blood Qi, it projected a red dot.


    ¡°This is¡­ a map?¡¯ Zhou Feng looked at the projection in front of him.


    If his understanding was right, the projection in front of him was a map. The red dot was the land of heritage.


    This ring was equivalent to a treasure map, and the red dot was equivalent to a treasure.


    As long as he found the land of heritage, he would be able to find the Human Emperor¡¯s inheritance.


    And if his guess was correct, this ring of heritage should have recorded more than one land of heritage.


    ¡®So it¡¯s like this¡­¡¯


    After figuring out what was going on, Zhou Feng¡¯s enthusiasm cooled down as if he had been doused with cold water. This was because he was not sure how much time had passed since the first Human Emperor¡¯s emergence.


    These thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years? One era replaced the other in the blink of an eye. Could these lands of inheritance withstand the passage of time?


    Even if they were preserved, it was likely that others had already discovered them.


    One had to know that the path of cultivation in this world was going further and further.


    The rationale of the more ancient an inheritance was, the more powerful one would become didn¡¯t apply in this world.


    As the path of cultivation continued to develop, many human sages had broken through their limits.


    The lands of heritage established by the Human Emperor might have been powerful back then, but others might have discovered and plundered all the things inside long ago.


    Although his enthusiasm had cooled down quite a bit, Zhou Feng was not too pessimistic.


    Anyway, he now knew the location of the land of heritage. Even if it had been discovered long ago, there should be clues about the Human Emperor Scripture.


    When that time came, Zhou Feng might be able to pick up some scraps.


    Not to mention other things, just in terms of the future path, Zhou Feng had a clear goal.


    It was not to the extent of not having any goals.


    ¡®After dealing with the Tri-Gu Sect, I will return to Heavenly Star City to cultivate for a period. I will then go and look for this so-called land of inheritance!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had already made up his mind.


    He would head to this inheritance ground and then travel the world. He couldn¡¯t increase his cultivation quickly in a single place, so he would need to travel a lot.


    Meanwhile¡­


    After Zhou Feng picked the Human Emperor¡¯s inheritance ring and left, the Bai clansmen started to search for him crazily.


    ¡°Not here! We didn¡¯t find anything!¡±


    ¡°We didn¡¯t find him here either! We only know that Zhou Feng went to the City Lord¡¯s mansion and left not long after!¡±


    ¡°What!? Nothing? Could it be that he left Heavenly Star City?¡±


    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, that¡¯s great!¡±


    The Bai clansmen searched for a long time, but they still couldn¡¯t find any trace of Zhou Feng.


    Some people suspected that Zhou Feng had already left Heavenly Star City.


    But if that were the case, it would be a good opportunity for the Bai Clan.


    Even they had to think twice before making a move in Heavenly Star City. After all, Heavenly Star City didn¡¯t belong to the Bai Clan.


    If Zhou Feng had left Heavenly Star City, then it would be easier for them to eliminate him.


    ¡°He thinks that we won¡¯t be able to find him just because he escaped from Heavenly Star City and hid?¡±


    ¡°Haha!¡±


    ¡°As expected, he¡¯s just an inexperienced vagabond cultivator!¡±


    If Zhou Feng believed that the Bai Clan wouldn¡¯t be able to find him after he left Heavenly Star City and hid, he would be in for a surprise.


    That was purely a joke! There were people in this world who specialized in cultivating the Dao of Heavenly Secrets.


    As long as one was willing to pay a certain price, it was still possible to find a person.


    It was just that this person who cultivated the Dao of Heavenly Secrets was harder to find.


    Coincidentally, the Bai Clan knew quite a few people who cultivated the Dao of Heavenly Secrets.


    One of them was someone Zhu Feng had met before-Ruo Sheng, the monk from the west.


    This monk possessed a technique that consumed one¡¯s willpower to predict the future.


    Subsequently, the news of Zhou Feng leaving Heavenly Star City caused another wave of commotion.


    Once again, Zhou Feng became Heavenly Star City¡¯s headline figure.


    Many people began to pay attention to this vagabond cultivator because his name would always pop up.


    Why did this person have to be so flashy?


    Every day!


    However, now thatZhou Feng had left Heavenly Star City, everyone¡¯s attention would slowly decrease.


    It was believed that after a few days, no one would remember Zhou Feng.


    Those who originally wanted to cause trouble for Zhou Feng would slowly forget him as time passed.


    As for avoiding the limelight, Zhou Feng¡¯s actions this time were rather successful.


    In any case, he had avoided a lot of trouble.


    The only one who was reluctant to part with Zhou Feng was probably the Bai Clan. After all, the Bai Clan had to take revenge on Bai Wuyi¡¯s behalf.


    They would chase Zhou Feng to the ends of the earth if necessary.


    Thus, the Bai Clan quickly found Ruo Sheng and paid a price to have him look for Zhou Feng¡¯s traces.


    The monk seemed to have expected this and was extremely cooperative. Not long after, they locked on Zhou Feng¡¯s direction and left.


    He was currently on his way to the Tri-Gu Sect!

 Chapter 227 - What Exactly Happened?

    Chapter 227 What Exactly Happened?


    ¡®So the Tri-Gu Sect is located in a desolate region?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the map that he had obtained from Li Rong.


    The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s location was labeled as a desolate region on this map.


    What region would be labeled as a desolate region?


    Normally, only regions that had not been developed would be labeled as desolate.


    Heavenly Star City was the city at the Southern Border on this map.


    In the eyes of many people, there were only groups of barbarians outside of Heavenly Star City.


    In that kind of area, not only were there no inheritances, but they even lived together with the Demons. This was something that many people could not accept.


    ¡®The Tri-Gu Sect is situated next to a Demon territory?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly as he had not expected this.


    The Demon territory was next to the Tri-Gu Sect, but why had he not seen any traces of the Demon race back in the Tri-Gu Sect?


    Heavenly Star City had never seen any Demons because it was already human territory.


    Although the Demons could not step foot there, why were there no Demons in the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s vicinity?


    Also, there seemed to be a bit too many people in the Tri-Gu Sect!


    Zhou Feng thought about it and recalled how the Tri-Gu Sect treated new disciples.


    How many new disciples did they recruit each year?


    Even if the Tri-Gu Sect controlled a large area, it was not reasonable to recruit so many people!


    ¡®Here¡¯s the one-million-dollar question. How did this perverse sect survive for such a long time?¡¯


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.


    ¡®And that Voodoo Cult¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng kept the map and silently advanced. There were too many things that he did not want to think about. In any case, he had left Heavenly Star City this time to avoid the limelight and find a place to continue cultivating.


    He was just returning to the Tri-Gu Sect to take revenge.


    Soon, Zhou Feng found a place to rest.


    The process of resting was to use the Malevolent Earth Qi Core to temper his body.


    Ever since breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t stopped cultivating almost every day.


    Nonetheless, his cultivation seemed to have stagnated. Even if he trained diligently every day, the speed at which his cultivation increased was like a crawling tortoise.


    It was too slow!


    At the current speed, it would probably take more than 10 years to break through to the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    And this was the daily routine of most cultivators.


    Starting from the Purple Mansion realm, it became harder and harder to break through.


    This was because the Purple Mansion realm was a threshold where one could use their soul to comprehend the world. Comprehension was extremely important.


    If your comprehension ability was good, the bottleneck would be like paper.


    If not, then you could only rely on time and effort, bit by bit.


    This also caused the gap in power between the Purple Mansion cultivators to grow larger and larger.


    The depth of one¡¯s comprehension of the natural laws, the formation of anomalies, and the use of their soul were all important factors that affected a cultivator¡¯s strength.


    ¡®I have to speed up my cultivation!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have much hope for his aptitude and comprehension ability.


    He only hoped to find a way to speed up his cultivation.


    Perhaps a crazy battle was one way because his strength would slightly increase every time he fought.


    Coupled with all kinds of growth-type skills, fighting might be more cost-effective than burying himself in cultivation.


    ¡®I wonder when I can draw a new passive skill¡­


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but open the skill panel.


    He saw that only 1/10 of the progress bar was full.


    It was probably impossible to draw a new passive skill in a short period.


    ¡®Forget it! Forget it! Then I¡¯ll settle down for some time.¡¯


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t too anxious. After all, his cultivation speed could already be considered as riding a rocket.


    Not even a year had passed since he started cultivating, yet he had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    Such a speed was comparable to someone else¡¯s 10 painstaking years of cultivation. This speed was already fast enough.


    There was no need for him to pursue an even faster speed. He couldn¡¯t break through to the Divine Ability realm immediately.


    Thus, Zhou Feng calmed his mind and planned to slowly refine his body.


    He felt that there was still room for his body to be refined.


    At the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s headquarters¡­


    Ever since the Voodoo Cult¡¯s invasion, this place had been reduced to ruins.


    Almost everything had been snatched away, and the sect¡¯s grand formation had ceased to operate.


    The Tri-Gu disciples had either been captured or escaped.


    Now, the Tri-Gu higher-ups had re-established their sect on another mountain.


    It was also from the moment the Tri-Gu Sect was invaded that this area had begun to descend into chaos.


    Many dark forces were surfacing one after the other.


    ¡®They¡¯re all dead?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the village in front of him, the smell of blood and corpses pervading the surroundings.


    The village was in ruins, and he could tell with a glance that someone had ripped out a newborn out of a pregnant woman¡¯s womb.


    There was a small wrinkled hand beside him. It seemed to be a little dazzling in this bloody mess.


    How many times had he seen such a scene already?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s originally relaxed and calm mood began to become solemn.


    This was because he had already seen an unknown number of such villages along the way. None of them had the slightest trace of


    life.


    ¡®What has happened?¡¯


    Zhou Feng remembered that the villages had many people, and they had been living quite well.


    He had not been away for a long time, yet he did not see anyone other than wild beasts along the way.


    The vibrant forest was filled with a cold and desolate atmosphere.


    The closer Zhou Feng got to the Tri-Gu Sect, the more he felt the malicious intent around him grow stronger.


    ¡®Outside of Heavenly Star City is a desolate land!¡¯


    He remembered the words on the map. To the east of Heavenly Star City was a desolate land.


    He had to be careful when walking in the desolate land because that was a truly dangerous place.


    If it wasn¡¯t necessary, even Divine Ability cultivators wouldn¡¯t be willing to enter this area.


    Only those merchants who didn¡¯t care about their lives would pass through this area.


    At first, when Zhou Feng saw these words, he felt the one who had drawn the map was making a mountain out of a molehill. After all, Zhou Feng had come from this area, and it was not that terrifying.


    But now, the silent and solemn atmosphere made him recall those words.


    ¡®What exactly happened?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned as he passed through the forest.


    Relying on his passive Nature Affinity, he could hide well.


    As for Big Yellow, it was born in the forest, so hiding was already an instinct. Big Yellow suddenly stopped.


    ¡°Awoo!¡±


    Big Yellow sniffed the ground and let out a low growl.


    The hair on its back stood up!


    ¡°What did you discover?¡±


    Zhou Feng sensed the surroundings but did not find anything amiss.


    In such a situation, Big Yellow must have smelled something incredible.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s perception was very strong, it had a range limit.


    It wasn¡¯t like Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell. As long as there was the faintest hint of odor, Big Yellow would be able to smell it before it completely dissipated.


    This was also why Heavenly Star City¡¯s cultivators liked Mountain Spirit Hounds. They had too much space to display their abilities in the wild.

 Chapter 228 - Herding

    Chapter 228 Herding


    Zhou Feng hesitated for a moment before asking, ¡°Big Yellow, is it dangerous?¡±


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    A look of consideration appeared on Big Yellow¡¯s face upon hearing his question.


    Spirit beasts like the Mountain Spirit Hounds had high intelligence and could even communicate normally with humans.


    Zhou Feng had also heard that after reaching the Divine Ability realm, spirit beasts could speak like humans.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng and Big Yellow were able to have a simple exchange.


    Big Yellow nodded and shook its head.


    In other words, the thing that left behind this scent was considered a little threatening. This was an assessment based on Big Yellow¡¯s strength.


    ¡°Forget it. Let¡¯s continue moving forward.¡±


    Zhou Feng forcefully suppressed his curiosity.


    In this situation, it was best not to be too curious.


    The proverb ¡®curiosity killed the cat¡¯ was a universal truth. It was best to rein in one¡¯s curiosity, or else, it would be easy to put oneself in danger.


    Zhou Feng continued to head toward the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s location.


    The further one was from Heavenly Star City, the more deathly silent the surroundings became. The trees around him also began to decrease, and the land gradually became barren.


    This sort of thing was extremely rare to him.


    This was because almost every inch of the Southern Border would be filled with tall trees.


    How could the land become barren?


    The crimson soil and reddish-brown rocks were all exposed.


    ¡®So many corpses!¡¯


    At the same time, Zhou Feng noticed more and more corpses along the way. He could also see skeletons after walking for a while.


    Zhou Feng did not know how long he walked, but just as he was about to reach the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s former base, Big Yellow barked.


    ¡®Someone is here!


    For safety reasons, Zhou Feng restrained his aura and hid at the side.


    Then, he saw two black dots slowly walking over from afar.


    These were two men!


    However, these two men looked peculiar. Their eyes were lifeless, and their faces were full of acne.


    The strangest thing was that their bellies were round. It was as if they were pregnant for ten months.


    He could even see some things, the size of a fist, squirming in their round bellies. There were probably dozens of them. Every time they squirmed, the bellies¡¯ shape would change.


    Has anyone ever seen a lotus pod before? There are many densely packed holes on a big lotus pod, and the lotus seeds are situated inside the holes.


    The stomachs of these two people were similar to a big lotus pod, with countless protruding lotus seeds on their stomachs.


    ¡°Eh? There¡¯s actually a fish that slipped through the net! What a great harvest!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was thinking about what had happened to these two people, a voice echoed.


    He had been discovered!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first reaction was that he had been discovered.


    Then, a black shadow flew rapidly from afar.


    He had clearly just seen a black dot on the horizon, but in the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of Zhou Feng.


    It was a huge fat man with a hideous face. Other than some bone ornaments on his body, he was naked.


    He was more than two meters tall, and his skin was dark gray. His body seemed to be made of copper water, and his every move carried a sense of power.


    What made Zhou Feng most uncomfortable was that this person¡¯s eyes were aggressive. His eyes were fixed on him as if he was staring at food.


    ¡°You hid really well! If it wasn¡¯t for that b*stard under your feet, I wouldn¡¯t have been able to discover you!¡±


    Tigri glared fiercely at Big Yellow. He was about to grin and reveal his yellow teeth.


    Zhou Feng frowned because the stench on this person¡¯s body was the stinkiest he had ever smelled.


    There was also the fact that this person had almost no clothes on him. That ugly shaft was eye-piercing


    ¡®Big Yellow exposed my tracks¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng now understood that the fat man had not discovered him because he did not hide properly. Big Yellow had exposed him.


    ¡°I was still worried that I could not complete today¡¯s herding mission! I did not expect that a lamb would come knocking on my door!¡±


    Tigri held a large bone club and kept sizing up Zhou Feng.


    From time to time, his disgusting saliva would drip onto the ground.


    ¡°Woof! Woof! Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow immediately bared its teeth and crouched down with its front body, ready to attack.


    ¡®Herding? Mission?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not speak and tried his best to analyze the essence of the fat man¡¯s words.


    ¡®Herding? Could it be related to those fellows with the big bellies?


    ¡®Having a mission means that there is a superior. Then this person must be part of a group or a sect¡­¡¯


    ¡°Haha! You don¡¯t seem to know what herding is!¡±


    Tigri looked reckless, but he didn¡¯t make a move. Instead, he was testing Zhou Feng because he felt a sense of danger.


    From the beginning until now, there was no change in this person¡¯s face.


    This was different from the humans he had met before.


    Tigri¡¯s eyes concealed his shrewdness deep in them.


    The two men with the big bellies suddenly had painful expressions on their faces.


    Their stomachs suddenly expanded as if they were inflated, and densely packed bulges appeared on their stomachs.


    Bam!


    The stomachs of these two people exploded, and many white fat bugs jumped out of them.


    These white bugs, accompanied by a rain of blood, flew directly toward Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng instantly understood what this so-called herding meant!


    ¡®This person uses humans to breed these bugs!¡¯


    Zhou Feng clenched his fist fiercely, and the Blood Qi in his body burned crazily.


    Golden Blood Qi shone in all directions as he threw a punch!


    He directly attacked without saying a word once again.


    Traces of a savage aura also emerged from Tigri¡¯s body, and his muscles burst forth with terrifying power.


    The bone club in his right hand struck forward.


    Kacha!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s golden fist shattered this bone club.


    Although Tigri was sufficiently shrewd, his cultivation level was only at the Soul Altar realm.


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t attacked earlier because he wanted to find out what was going on.


    Now that Tigri had made a move, Zhou Feng naturally would not hold back, instantly unleashing his full strength.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch sent Tigri flying.


    ¡°Demon General strength!¡±


    When Tigri felt that suffocating aura, his face revealed an incredulous expression.


    This human actually had the strength of a Demon General!


    Tigri was already cautious, but he did not think he would still fall into the trap.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng punched again, sending Tigri¡¯s head flying


    The Purple Jade Bell floated above his head, suppressing everything around him.


    Whether it was the flesh bugs or Tigri¡¯s body, they were crushed into meat paste.


    Big Yellow also took the opportunity to attack. It rushed out and brought Tigri¡¯s head back in an instant.


    After a short burst of power, the surroundings fell into silence once again.


    ¡®It seems that all the humans in this area are dead¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that all the humans in this area were dead.


    No wonder the people of Heavenly Star City didn¡¯t want to talk about this place. Only caravans would enter this area.


    It seemed that the caravans were really bold.

 Chapter 229 - Encounter with Gong Jiu

    Chapter 229 Encounter with Gong Jiu


    Zhou Feng noticed a detail that he had never noticed before.


    ¡®Eh? This is¡­¡¯


    After killing Tigri, he felt that the Human Emperor Ring on his hand actually absorbed a trace of aura.


    Moreover, he sensed that the strange phenomenon that was being nurtured was becoming much stronger.


    ¡®What was going on? This¡­¡¯ Zhou Feng was a little surprised by this change. Could it be because the race was different?


    He did not expect that killing Tigri would have such an advantage.


    He could feel traces of aura beginning to accumulate, and the newly condensed Human Emperor Blood in his body also became excited.


    That drop of golden Human Emperor Blood became abnormally active.


    It constantly coursed throughout Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    His body was slightly warm, which was similar to using the Malevolent Earth Qi Core.


    ¡®Killing enemies can also improve my cultivation?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had a hunch that this change had occurred because he had killed a non-human opponent.


    He had lost count of how many humans he had killed, but none of them had caused a change in the Human Emperor Blood in his body.


    ¡°This Human Emperor Scripture!¡¯


    Zhou Feng believed this had something to do with the Human Emperor Scripture.


    If he remembered correctly, there were a myriad of races back in the first Human Emperor¡¯s era. The races had been powerful, occupying most of the living area.


    Those who had managed to become the Human Emperors of their eras had basically massacred countless races, solidifying their dignified status.


    Only by snatching a large number of living areas was one worthy of receiving the title ¡®Human Emperor¡¯.


    As the number of races in the world dwindled, the Human Emperor title gradually disappeared.


    It had been a long time since someone inherited the Human Emperor title.


    ¡®Killing the other races¡¯ experts can also increase my cultivation? If that¡¯s the case¡­¡¯


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more he felt that the Human Emperor Scripture was tailor-made for him.


    He considered himself to be an ordinary person with mediocre aptitude and comprehension abilities.


    It was naturally challenging for him to rely on himself to cultivate.


    However, Zhou Feng believed that he had a sufficiently strong dao heart. Coupled with the thousands of passive skills that awaited him and the Human Emperor Scripture, the Divine Ability realm would only be a mere stop on his path of cultivation!


    ¡®All the humans here have died. It¡¯s not a big deal to start a massacre here.¡¯


    Anyway, Zhou Feng already planned to hide in this area. He would not return to Heavenly Star City in the short term.


    He could take advantage of this short period to train hard and improve his body.


    Zhou Feng had a bit of humanity in his heart, perhaps because of the influence of his previous life. He was kind of angry that these beings had slaughtered the humans in this area.


    ¡°Big Yellow, can you locate a similar smell?¡± asked Zhou Feng


    Once Big Yellow locked on another scent, Zhou Feng would put in motion his hunting plan.


    Apart from stimulating the Human Emperor Blood in his body, this hunting plan also involved improving his passive skills, such as Soul Harvesting. Killing the other races¡¯ experts could also trigger this passive skill. Zhou Feng had been worried that he would kill innocent mortals at will if he trod on the path of wanton slaughter to enhance this passive skill.


    However, the psychological burden now lessened since he had to deal with the other races¡¯ experts.


    It was best if he could have more passive skills like Soul Harvesting. This way, the benefits of his hunting plan would be even greater.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow nodded. The deeper they went, the stronger the smell became.


    ¡°Very good!¡±


    Zhou Feng had no intention of leaving this area at all. Instead, he continued to explore.


    Just as Zhou Feng had expected, this area was a desolate land as the cultivators of Heavenly Star City had labeled it. However, in reality, it was more appropriate to describe it as the Demon territory.


    This area was where the Demons and monsters lived.


    No one knew how many Demons and monsters were hiding in this area. The humans here were only equivalent to the crops of these Demons and monsters.


    They would harvest them once every few decades, and it so happened it was the time to do so.


    In any case, humans were the most ¡®nutritious¡¯ food. As long as they were given some time, it wouldn¡¯t take more than a few decades to fill the mountains with Demons.


    Zhou Feng had never seen a Demon before because most of them had been in a slumber for centuries.


    The cycle of the new generation of humans succeeding the last had been repeated several times already, and many events of the past had been forgotten.


    Most people were still working hard to survive in this harsh environment.


    Of course, it was not pragmatic of the Demons to rely on demonic beasts to harvest so many people one by one. Hence, there were sects like the Tri-Gu Sect.


    In other words, all the sects in this area were the Demons¡¯ minions. This could explain why the Tri-Gu Sect did not treat people as human beings. Their contempt for life was incited to the extreme.


    In any case, any sustainable development was a fart to these Demons and sects.


    What did the life and death of the human race have to do with them?


    Moreover, even the mighty cultivators of the human race couldn¡¯t interfere in this area because this was the agreement they had reached a long time ago.


    Of course, this was a guarded secret, and only Elders and above were privy to this knowledge.


    The disciples under these sects fantasized about cultivating hard and striving to climb up, but all of this was in vain.


    Everyone was living in a lie!


    Of course, there would always be people from these sects who were unwilling to become the claws and teeth of the Demons and wanted to resist.


    In the end, they would all be annihilated by another sect, just like how the Voodoo Cult had invaded the Tri-Gu Sect. The Tri-Gu Sect Leader had harbored thoughts he shouldn¡¯t


    have.


    In the end, he had been heavily injured, and the Tri-Gu Sect was invaded. Otherwise, who else in this area would be able to heavily injure the Tri-Gu Sect Leader.


    Regarding these secrets, Zhou Feng naturally didn¡¯t know much about them.


    At present, he only knew that by killing the other races¡¯ experts, he could raise his cultivation that had stagnated.


    In any case, they weren¡¯t humans, so killing them wouldn¡¯t affect him much.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow suddenly stopped and barked. ¡°Oh! Is it right in front?¡±


    Zhou Feng stayed vigilant and slowly walked forward.


    How long had he been walking for? He actually encountered another enemy.


    Next, he saw an extremely spectacular scene.


    Countless people, regardless of gender, were walking forward with their huge bellies.


    And one person was standing at the back, like a shepherd herding the herd.


    This person was much more powerful than Tigri.


    ¡®Wait! It¡¯s him!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes. He felt that the person at the back looked a little familiar.


    ¡®Gong Jiu!? It¡¯s him!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was instantly shocked awake.


    Gong Jiu was a former genius of the Tri-Gu Sect and a strong contender for the Sect Leader position.


    Gong Jiu had been an elegant and noble young master back then.


    But now, he was shirtless, and the fat on his body trembled with every step he took. If it weren¡¯t for his face, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have recognized him.


    ¡°Eh? Do I smell blood?¡±


    The smell of blood entered the nostrils of Gong Jiu, who was originally in a trance. He then looked toward Zhou Feng¡¯s location.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t deliberately hide, so Gong Jiu saw him immediately.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s spirit, appearance, and temperament had changed dramatically compared to the past.


    If Zhou Feng was an authentic bumpkin before, he now was a prince. Even if he didn¡¯t speak, he looked mighty.

 Chapter 230 - Human Fetus Gu

    Chapter 230 Human Fetus Gu


    ¡®It¡¯s him!? How is this possible!? Purple Mansion realm? Impossible!¡¯


    When Gong Jiu saw Zhou Feng, especially when he sensed that Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, he could not accept what was happening before him.


    Gong Jiu had not hesitated to become the Demons¡¯ minion in order to survive and break through to Purple Mansion realm.


    He had not hesitated to personally nurture the Human Fetus Gu and turn into this grotesque monster to break through to Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡®Why! Why was this ant not only able to avoid the Demons, but he also broke through to the Purple Mansion realm!? The Heavenly Dao is unfair!¡¯


    When Gong Jiu had found out that his Master was actually a servant of the Demons, his mental state collapsed.


    Now that he saw Zhou Feng doing so well, his heart was even more unbalanced.


    ¡°Die! I want you to die!¡±


    Anger instantly surged to the top of his head, and a wave of Demonic Qi emerged from Gong Jiu¡¯s body.


    His body turned into a purple light and charged toward Zhou Feng.


    The strength that burst out from that trembling fat was actually not weaker than Zhou Feng¡¯s normal strength.


    One had to know that before burning his blood essence, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was already considered terrifying. Yet, Gong Jiu was actually able to match up to him.


    Zhou Feng also moved without saying anything


    Golden flames rose, and an indescribable aura instantly suppressed Gong Jiu¡¯s demonic aura.


    The two bodies collided head-on.


    The four fists were like four huge hammers that kept colliding.


    The ground around them instantly split open, and those people with the Human Fetus Gu instantly exploded.


    ¡°Impossible! I have a demonic body! You were just an ant that I could kill easily! I can still kill you now!¡±


    Gong Jiu¡¯s eyes burned with jealousy upon feeling that he was at a disadvantage.


    ¡®What kind of fortuitous encounter did he stumble upon to reach this level!?¡¯


    In Gong Jiu¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng had been an ant that he could kill easily in the past.


    Now, he was the one being suppressed!


    Gong Jiu¡¯s soul had been contaminated due to his demonic body, and his state of mind had long since changed.


    Now that he had been stimulated like this, his entire face had become even more devilish and crazy.


    Gong Jiu had gone through with the transformation of his body into a demonic one voluntarily in order to survive in the hands of the Demons back then.


    It was precisely because of this that Gong Jiu was able to keep his life. At the same time, he relied on the Demons¡¯ power to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    The demonic body was famous for being terrifying. After all, the body was the Demons¡¯ most powerful weapon.


    Gong Jiu had relied on this terrifying demonic body to beat his former competitor, Ye Zai, to death.


    Ye Zai was different from Gong Jiu as he hadn¡¯t submitted to the Demons. In the end, he died for that choice.


    To Gong Jiu¡¯s surprise, Zhou Feng completely suppressed the demonic body he was most proud of.


    Gong Jiu could feel that Zhou Feng¡¯s body was much stronger than his.


    That was especially so when Zhou Feng¡¯s Fighting Spirit and Adaptive Shell were taken into account.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng lightly shouted, sending Gong Jiu flying with a punch.


    An incomparably strong force instantly poured into Gong Jiu¡¯s body, and his fat exploded. Then, a fountain of purple blood surged out of his wound.


    ¡°Ah! Die!¡±


    Gong Jiu grabbed a person beside him and swallowed their Human Fetus Gu.


    Gong Jiu had gone crazy!


    Originally, Zhou Feng wanted to hold back and ask Gong Jiu what had happened.


    Unfortunately, he could not hold back anymore.


    Gong Jiu took advantage of the time when he was sent flying to swallow three people.


    His entire body became ferocious, his bones constantly cracking, and a strange aura spread out from his body.


    His face was covered in purple blood, making him look like a malicious ghost.


    His aura rose crazily, and a strange layer of tissue began to grow on his body.


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body instantly burned, and golden Blood Qi shone in all directions.


    This punch of his was like an emperor commanding the four cardinal directions, and everyone had to submit to this punch.


    Gong Jiu¡¯s aura, which had just reached its peak, was instantly vanquished by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    Although Gong Jiu was also in the Purple Mansion realm and had a demonic body, he was still quite lacking compared to a monster like Zhou Feng, whose battle prowess far exceeded his realm.


    When his stacked passive skills and Armor-Piercing Spear came into play, Gong Jiu¡¯s defeat was sealed.


    ¡°Purple Jade Bell!¡±


    After blowing half of Gong Jiu¡¯s body with one punch, Zhou Feng summoned the Purple Jade Bell and suppressed the surroundings, preventing the people with huge stomachs from running around.


    The current Gong Jiu was like a balloon filled with air that had been punctured by a needle, and half of his body lay on the ground.


    He wasn¡¯t dead!


    Gong Jiu wasn¡¯t dead yet! The demonic body¡¯s tenacious vitality allowed Gong Jiu to struggle for his life.


    It also made Gong Jiu feel a little clear-headed.


    ¡°What¡¯s in that stomach?¡±


    Zhou Feng restrained his aura and looked at Gong Jiu indifferently.


    Since Gong Jiu hadn¡¯t died, Zhou Feng planned to ask the question in his heart.


    ¡°Human Fetus Gu! It¡¯s a special Gu! Your former tribesmen are among that group of people! Hahaha!¡±


    When Gong Jiu heard his question, he gave an answer and then suddenly laughed strangely.


    ¡°I killed all your tribesmen with my own hands! Then I put the Human Fetus Gu in them!


    ¡°How is it? Are you angry? Are you angry?¡±


    ¡°Haha!¡±


    Even though half of his body was gone, Gong Jiu was still full of energy and looked like a lunatic.


    ¡°Human Fetus Gu?¡±


    Zhou Feng could feel that there was a lot of vitality in his stomach.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! This is the Demons¡¯ territory, you can¡¯t escape!


    ¡°Oh right! And that b*tch Leng Maner! The Demons should have captured her by now!¡±


    Zhou Feng showed no reaction, enraging Gong Jiu even more.


    Zhou Feng had gathered a lot of useful information from these chaotic words.


    ¡®Demons? Human Fetus Gu¡­¡¯


    This so-called Human Fetus Gu was a special Gu that could grow in the human body.


    The Tri-Gu Sect could exist for such a long time and still stand tall because it was of great help to the Demons. This Human Fetus Gu was a huge tonic for the Demons. It grew in the human body and could absorb the purest Blood Qi.


    Furthermore, the process of the Human Fetus Gu growing in the body was extremely painful.


    The hosts of the Human Fetus Gu would be in extreme pain in the beginning.


    In the end, they would be tortured to the point of mental breakdown, and this process could give rise to endless resentment and hatred.


    Resentment and hatred were good things for Demons and monsters.


    Gong Jiu was in charge of the people with the Human Fetus Gu, and they were looking for food.


    When the Human Fetus Gu matured, he would bring them to the Demons and receive his rewards.


    Before this, these Demons would eat humans alive as if harvesting crops.


    Now, these Demons were much more efficient in plundering flesh and blood with this Human Fetus Gu.


    To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for the previous Tri-Gu Sect Leader harboring rebellious thoughts, the Demons behind him would have been reluctant to destroy the Tri-Gu Sect.


    After all, this Human Fetus Gu was too useful!

 Chapter 231 - The Demons Background

    Chapter 231 The Demons¡¯ Background


    The Human Fetus Gu could help the Demons plunder what they needed the most.


    Moreover, the cultivation of the Human Fetus Gu did not require particularly harsh conditions.


    It only needed to be planted in a human, and then Gong Jiu would continuously torture and drive away the person with Human Fetus Gu.


    It was enough to search for enough food everywhere.


    Other than that, the Demons were basically sitting back and taking advantage of the situation.


    Such a situation also existed among humans.


    This was because humans had discovered that the parts of some Demons and monsters were extremely nutritious. Many scales, claws, and teeth were also materials used to refine soul artifacts.


    Therefore, regardless of whether it was the Demons or monsters, when humans were at their peak, they were almost all livestock that provided food and materials.


    However, with the decline of the Human Emperor¡¯s successors and the disintegration of the human race, these Demons and monsters had a chance to rise up again.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart didn¡¯t waver at all as he looked at Gong Jiu¡¯s twisted face.


    He knew that when Gong Jiu was reduced to the claws and teeth of the Demons, his soul had been distorted. In his eyes, Gong Jiu was a lunatic.


    tas a


    There was nothing worth getting angry about with a lunatic.


    ¡°How strong are the so-called Demons? And where are they?¡± Zhou Feng stepped on Gong Jiu¡¯s head, his tone calm.


    He had only killed one of the Demons¡¯ minions, and yet the Human Emperor Blood in his body had such a reaction.


    What if he killed a real Demon?


    And if he remembered correctly, both the Demons and the monster race were treasures to humans.


    The role of a hunter and the prey was never fixed.


    As long as those Demons didn¡¯t exceed the Purple Mansion realm, Zhou Feng believed he could dominate them.


    ¡°Hehehe!¡±


    Gong Jiu let out a weird peal of laughter as if he had gone crazy.


    However, he cooperated, giving him all the information he had on the Demons.


    The Demons weren¡¯t a race, but rather a group of outcasts. As long as someone had a knack for destruction and was a borderline lunatic, they could identify themselves as Demons.


    Therefore, there were many lifeforms in the group of Demons.


    But almost without exception, all the Demons had powerful bodies.


    It was said that the source of body refinement came from Demons. Even the first Human Emperor had used the Demons¡¯ bodies as reference material to create the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Apart from their powerful bodies, Demons had innate divine abilities and did not need to break through to a certain realm. They were born with it!


    The Demons had top-notch innate divine abilities, so their opponents had to be cautious in battle. Otherwise, it would be very easy to suffer a loss and end up being devoured by the Demons.


    The Demons could increase their cultivation level by devouring humans because their flesh and soul were the best supplements.


    The Demons of the past had once disappeared without a trace, but there were signs of a resurgence in the past few thousand years.


    Purple Mansion Demons were called Generals, while Divine Ability Demons were Kings.


    In this desolate land, there were many Demon Generals and Demon Kings.


    But the Demon Kings were all hiding in the deep mountains and forests, not daring to show themselves.


    Gong Jiu¡¯s Master was a Demon General.


    ¡°That monster is probably a Rank-9 Demon General! Its innate divine ability has to do with defense! It could effortlessly block the old Sect Leader¡¯s strongest attack!¡±


    The brutality on Gong Jiu¡¯s face decreased toward the end.


    Instead, he became calmer, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes. This was the only pride he had as the strongest genius of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡°Kill it! Kill It!¡±


    Then, a brutal aura made Gong Jiu become ferocious.


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng stomped on Gong Jiu¡¯s head until it exploded.


    Afterward, he used the Purple Jade Bell to suppress the surroundings, and those who had Human Fetus Gu in their stomachs were all crushed to death.


    Zhou Feng felt that Gong Jiu had been referring to the Demon that was backing him toward the end.


    ¡®A Rank-9 Demon General is equivalent to the 9th Level Purple Mansion cultivator? Innate divine ability is related to defense¡­


    ¡®Demon¡­!


    Zhou Feng brought Big Yellow to find a place to rest.


    Thanks to Gong Jiu¡¯s description, Zhou Feng now had a general understanding of the so-called Demons.


    These Demons seemed to be relatively united, and this area was under their rule.


    In other words, once Zhou Feng was in danger, no one could save him or help him.


    It was like he was alone behind enemy lines, so he needed to be careful.


    As such, he pondered over the best course of action and the perfect escape route. Only then could Zhou Feng fight without any scruples.


    ¡°Big Yellow, you need to enter the spirit-beast bag to hide!¡±


    Zhou Feng patted Big Yellow¡¯s head.


    Big Yellow was not an adult yet, and its strength was relatively low.


    When fighting against the Demons, not only would it not be helpful, but it was also be an easy target.


    Therefore, Big Yellow had to stay in the spirit-beast bag for some time.


    Zhou Feng had bought this spirit-beast bag back in Heavenly Star City. It was quite expensive, and one would not have been able to afford it if they did not have a strong family background.


    After all, it was difficult to make a storage bag that could store living things.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow responded with a bark to show that it understood.


    Now that Big Yellow¡¯s matter was settled, the only thing left was how to safely escape from the fiendish Demons¡¯ encirclement.


    From the reaction of the Human Emperor Blood, the Human Emperor¡¯s successors and the fiendish Demons were mortal enemies.


    If Zhou Feng exposed that he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, he would definitely be besieged by the fiendish Demons.


    Detonate the Purple Jade Bell?


    Regarding such a top-grade spiritual artifact, Zhou Feng was very reluctant to part with it.


    Therefore, he did not plan to use this final trump card until he was in dire straits.


    ¡®If that¡¯s the case, only by obtaining a new passive skill can I solve the current problem!¡¯


    At present, Zhou Feng was uncharacteristically cautious. It was completely unlike the time when he was unbridled in Heavenly Star City.


    That was because Heavenly Star City was a place with rules, and the various powers were intertwined.


    Zhou Feng knew that as long as he didn¡¯t do something too excessive, there wouldn¡¯t be too much danger.


    There were no rules here, however.


    He naturally couldn¡¯t let his guard down in such a place.


    ¡®The progress bar is still far from full¡­ Then I can only use the Crystal Warm Jade!¡¯


    Zhou Feng checked the skill panel and found that the progress bar was still a little lacking.


    Fortunately, the Crystal Warm Jade had absorbed a lot of Spiritual Qi when he entered the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    The Spiritual Qi in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm was ten times more concentrated than in the outside world.


    Hence, the Crystal Warm Jade recovered quickly, and it could recharge the skill panel once again.


    Zhou Feng hoped that he could draw a better passive skill this time.


    If Zhou Feng could not draw a passive skill, he could only give up on the idea of attacking the Demons.


    Instead, he would hunt down the Demons¡¯ minions and slowly temper himself.


    Of course, he didn¡¯t forget to seek revenge against the Tri-Gu Sect.


    The remaining members of the Tri-Gu Sect had all become the Demons¡¯ minions.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to worry about anything when dealing with them. He just needed to be ruthless.


    He placed the Crystal Warm Jade on his palm upon thinking of this, and a large amount of pure Spiritual Qi entered his body. This pure Spiritual energy Qi increased the skill panel¡¯s progress bar rapidly.


    After a while, the progress bar was full.


    Zhou Feng could now draw a new passive skill!

 Chapter 232 - Gold Passive Skill: Nirvana Rebirth!

    Chapter 232 Gold Passive Skill: Nirvana Rebirth!


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw that his progress bar was full, he immediately drew a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Originally, he thought that this was just a simple draw.


    He did not know how many times he had drawn passive skills, but some changes would occur after each draw.[1]


    Suddenly, a dragon¡¯s roar sounded in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears, and the skill panel exuded a gold light.


    If his soul had left his body, he would definitely have seen a golden light flying back to his body.


    This was exactly the same golden light that had left his body when he had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    If one looked closely, one would be able to see that this golden light was actually in the shape of a dragon. ¡®This¡­ can¡¯t be! Gold passive skill!? I¡­ I don¡¯t think I did anything!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was instantly stunned upon seeing the golden light on the skill panel. Why did it suddenly flash with a golden light? This was a bit unreasonable!


    He didn¡¯t seem to have done anything!


    Could it be that he was favored by the heavens?


    Zhou Feng shoved those questions aside and checked the passive skill he obtained this time.


    Nirvana Rebirth: You can use your flesh and blood to create a nirvana seed. Your soul will be able to teleport to the nirvana seed once your physical body is destroyed, and you will be reborn!


    Cooldown: 99 years


    (Note: After being reborn, you will experience a half-month weakening period.)


    there will be a half-month weakening period.


    Zhou Feng could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.


    ¡®Rebirth? The new passive skill is actually rebirth!? Are my eyes playing tricks on me!?¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t believe his eyes and rubbed them hard.


    In the end, he confirmed that he wasn¡¯t seeing things.


    ¡®Nirvana Rebirth! And it¡¯s not a one-time use passive skill! Well, the cooldown is a little long¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng swallowed his saliva.


    This passive skill should be ranked first among all his passive skills.


    And there was no objection to this because this passive skill was equivalent to giving Zhou Feng a second life.


    Originally, he could accept this kind of heaven-defying passive skill even if it was a one-time use.


    However, this skill could be used repeatedly.


    Although the cooldown period was a bit long, he was a cultivator, and 99 years didn¡¯t mean much to him. He could use it at least four or five times, which should be enough.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng felt he could be even more unrestrained with this passive skill.


    In any case, he wouldn¡¯t die, so he could enjoy the waves to his heart¡¯s content.


    ¡°Nirvana seed¡­ Will my soul fly back? What will I do if my soul is suppressed?¡¯


    Zhou Feng carefully read the gold passive skill¡¯s description and found something amiss.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s soul would have to return to the nirvana seed so that he could be reborn. If his soul was suppressed before it could return to the nirvana seed, wouldn¡¯t this passive skill lose its effectiveness?


    Also, the nirvana seed¡¯s location had to be very particular. It had to be in a top-secret location.


    If others discovered his nirvana seed, wouldn¡¯t he be at their mercy due to his rebirth and weakened state?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s excitement subsided, and he kept warning himself, ¡®I can¡¯t get ahead of myself! This doesn¡¯t mean that I¡¯m truly invincible!¡¯


    Although he could get reborn, it didn¡¯t mean he wasn¡¯t afraid of anything.


    He could do whatever he wanted, but he couldn¡¯t change his attitude. It was best to keep a low profile.


    The best outcome would be to never have to use it. After all, it was easy to associate resurrection with death.


    At that time, he could not use his innate divine ability as an excuse to cover it up.


    Coming back from the dead was also quite a temptation for those almighty cultivators.


    If Zhou Feng was captured and sliced up for research, it wouldn¡¯t be worth it.


    Zhou Feng pondered over it for quite a while before calming down.


    The production method of the nirvana seed is¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately tried to produce the nirvana seed.


    The nirvana seed was the key to rebirth. Zhou Feng knew he had to use his flesh and blood, but nothing more than that.


    Unexpectedly, when he thought of producing the nirvana seed, a piece of flesh split from his body while his blood surged out like the sea, encapsulating it.


    Then, Zhou Feng felt unprecedentedly weak.


    Soon, the blood dried up, and the egg-sized piece of flesh turned into a small heart.


    As Zhou Feng reached out and placed it in his palm, traces of vitality slowly spread out. He could feel that his body had a special connection with this nirvana seed.


    Once his body collapsed, his soul would instantly shift.


    At the same time, there would be no discomfort as this was made from his flesh and blood. He only needed to pass through the half-month period of weakness.


    After rebirth, there wouldn¡¯t be any changes to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This kind of vitality¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned because the nirvana seed contained too much vitality. As long as one¡¯s senses were sharp enough, they would easily discover the nirvana seed.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t carry the nirvana seed with him.


    If his body was just destroyed by a powerful enemy, he would be reborn on the spot if he carried it. Wasn¡¯t this giving others another chance to kill him?


    After thinking about it, Zhou Feng felt he should build a secret base first. It would be best if it had a formation to isolate the aura.


    ¡®It would be best if there are all kinds of cultivation resources that can help me survive the period of weakness!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that he should set up a secret base in this area for the time being. It didn¡¯t need to be something grand. As long as it was not discovered in a short period, it would be fine.


    In any case, he would only stay here for a period to avoid the limelight. The nirvana seed would still have to be placed somewhere else.


    He even felt that he could build more secret bases and move the nirvana seeds every once in a while.


    ¡°Everything I need is in my storage ring!¡± This place was neither too far nor too close to Heavenly Star City, and the surroundings were barren. If he died tragically and was reborn here, he would be able to return to Heavenly Star City quickly. Also, this place was considered to be deep into Demon territory, so the people from Heavenly Star City would have a hard time discovering this place. Soon, Zhou Feng took all kinds of formation flags out of his storage ring.


    These were the most trashy formation flags. As long as one had enough Spirit Stones, they could be used.


    However, the advantage was that one didn¡¯t need to know how to set up a formation to be able to use them.


    ¡®Formation flags to isolate auras, formation flags for defense, formation flags for warning¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng dug his cave before setting up the formation flags. It was more suitable to place the nirvana seeds underground.


    He even reinforced the surroundings to prevent some demonic beasts from burrowing into the ground as he set up the formation flags.


    After that, he took all kinds of medicinal pills out of his storage ring and piled them to the side.


    He also left food, drinks, and clothes.


    After thinking about it, he still felt a little worried.


    ¡®Why don¡¯t I leave the Purple Jade Bell here too? My safety will be guaranteed with the Purple Jade Bell protecting me after rebirth!¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned as he considered leaving the Purple Jade Bell behind instead of carrying it with him.


    [1] I do! 30 times, including the new passive skill

 Chapter 233 - The Human Emperor Dragon Qis Protection?

    Chapter 233 The Human Emperor Dragon Qi¡¯s Protection?


    The Purple Jade Bell was the first top-grade spiritual artifact that Zhou Feng had obtained.


    As his cultivation continued to increase, its use was decreasing.


    Of course, this also had something to do with him focusing on his physical body. There was a method to control a spiritual artifact, but Zhou Feng did not cultivate it deliberately.


    Nonetheless, this did not mean that the Purple Jade Bell was completely useless.


    On the contrary, the Purple Jade Bell was still very useful as it had a certain degree of growth.


    After nurturing it in his Soul Altar for so long, the Purple Jade Bell had also undergone some strange changes.


    It was precisely because of this that Zhou Feng felt it was just right to leave it behind as a protective measure for the nirvana seed.


    In this way, he would be able to better pass through the period of weakness caused by his rebirth.


    ¡°Perfect!¡±


    After making all the arrangements, Zhou Feng once again surveyed his surroundings.


    He discovered that there were no changes. Next, he only needed to disguise this cave.


    This would be his rebirth point. If there was an accident in the future, he would get reborn in this place.


    After setting up the rebirth point, Zhou Feng felt that the shackles on his body seemed to have disappeared.


    Now, a hint of recklessness was brewing in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart, while his restraints loosened up a bit.


    The passive Nirvana Rebirth was a huge boost to his confidence.


    ¡®Next, should I go look for those Demons?¡¯


    Now that there was a way out, Zhou Feng needed to think about how to improve himself.


    Looking for trouble with those Demons?


    No way!


    Even if he had a chance to be reborn, those Demons were not to be trifled with.


    According to Gong Jiu, every Demon had countless claws and teeth, while their special aura could enslave all races.


    Therefore, the Demons did not lack minions to do their bidding.


    If Zhou Feng actively searched for them, he would not face a single Demon. He would have to deal with the Demon and its minions.


    The best way was naturally to get rid of the minions first.


    This way, not only would he be able to slowly increase his cultivation, but he would also reduce the pressure when he fought against a Demon.


    ¡®Old Demon Gu¡­ I bet he must have long become the Demon¡¯s minion! That¡¯s why the Demon-Devouring Technique is so strange!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng thought of his former Master in name, Old Demon Gu, and the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    At that time, he had been wondering who could create such a strange technique.


    Now that he thought about it, the Demon-Devouring Technique should have come from a Demon.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng felt a little scared because he had also cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique and had been deeply immersed in it back then.


    Fortunately, he had gotten rid of the Demon-Devouring Gu.


    If not for the Human Emperor Scripture, the Demon-Devouring Technique negative backlash would have reduced him to the Demons¡¯ minion by now.


    Zhou Feng made up his mind upon thinking of that. He would find trouble with the Tri-Gu Sect first!


    ¡°Big Yellow! It¡¯s your turn!¡±


    This place was so big, he naturally could not find the new base on his own.


    However, the situation would be different if he had Big Yellow¡¯s help.


    He believed that Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell would soon locate where the Demons¡¯ minions were gathered.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow immediately pricked up its ears and barked.


    While Zhou Feng was looking for trouble with those Demons¡­


    The Bai clansmen slowly arrived at the border. Further ahead was the desolate land, which was also Demon territory. ¡°This¡­ Zhou Feng is in front?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t that¡­¡±


    ¡°Zhou Feng actually entered Demon territory to avoid us!?¡±


    The Bai clansmen looked at the land in front of them and immediately stopped.


    A hint of embarrassment appeared on their faces.


    The commoners might not know, but the Bai Clan was one of the four great clans of Heavenly Star City. Naturally, they knew the owner of this territory.


    It could be said that Heavenly Star City existed to guard against the Demons here. Otherwise, how could a large city like Heavenly Star City have been built in such a place?


    The Bai clansmen were well-aware of the dangers ahead, so they all stopped. They did not dare to take a step forward.


    It had never crossed their minds that Zhou Feng was such a scheming person.


    After coming out of the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm, he had headed to the City Lord¡¯s mansion and immediately left Heavenly Star City.


    As such, the Bai Clan¡¯s preparations were in vain.


    Now, he even hid in Demon territory? How could they wantonly search for him in Demon territory?


    The Bai clansmen felt as if someone was playing a bad joke on them. Once the Demons discovered them, coming out alive would be considered pretty good.


    Ruo Sheng wasn¡¯t very clear about what had happened, so he asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    That¡¯s right! Besides helping the Bai Clan divinate Zhou Feng¡¯s whereabouts, Ruo Sheng joined them in this hunt.


    ¡°This is Demon territory! Master, why don¡¯t we wait here?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s almost time for the Demons to harvest their ¡®crops¡¯. Since this is the case, Zhou Feng won¡¯t be able to stay here for long!¡±


    The Bai clansmen hesitated for a moment before explaining to Ruo Sheng.


    ¡°Demon territory? The Human Emperor Scripture has reappeared! Have Demons appeared as well? As expected of the will of heaven¡­¡±


    Ruo Sheng sighed.


    This was the will of heaven. He would not accomplish anything if he continued to target the future Human Emperor.


    This was because these people with great luck were not so easy to target.


    ¡°Forget it! This penniless monk will take his leave now!¡±


    Ruo Sheng kept spinning the Buddhist beads in his hand, but in the end, he gave up on targeting the future Human Emperor.


    Even if Zhou Feng died, the Human Emperor Dragon Qi was attached to other people as well.


    It was better to wait for Zhou Feng to grow up and then kill him.


    This was not the ancient times. The once invincible Human Emperor was nothing in this era.


    Time had changed, and the Great Dao of cultivation was no longer the same as before.


    ¡°Eh? Master? You¡­¡±


    ¡°This bald donkey! Why did he suddenly leave? What should we do now?¡±


    ¡°Forget it! Let¡¯s stay here! This bald donkey is not a member of our Bai Clan!¡±


    Ruo Sheng¡¯s sudden departure caused the Bai clansmen to curse non-stop in their hearts. They now had to guard the entrance on their own. In any case, as long as Zhou Feng wanted to leave the Demon territory and head to Heavenly Star City, this was the only way.


    They only needed to stand guard here.


    Zhou Feng probably didn¡¯t know that the pursuers of the Bai Clan had already reached the borders of the Demon territory.


    In fact, Ruo Sheng was under the impression that he was the future Human Emperor.


    The Buddha of Dharma Rain Temple had divinated that heaven and earth would change drastically, while the Human Emperor Dragon Qi, which had been on the verge of dissipating, would be condensed again.


    This meant that a new Human Emperor would emerge in the future.


    And this new Human Emperor would definitely be an extreme humanist, something unacceptable to the Dharma Rain Temple and many other forces.


    After thousands of years of communication, many races had already merged with the human race.


    Also, nobody liked having a Human Emperor above them to keep them in check.


    Therefore, killing the future Human Emperor was the goal of many forces.


    Of course, this was all done in private.


    Killing the future Human Emperor was not a small matter. Many old monsters of the human race felt they were the superior race, and they would probably annihilate the entire Dharma Rain Temple if they discovered their plans.


    Therefore, the Dharma Rain Temple could only send monks like Ruo Sheng, who would not attract attention easily, to carry out this task quietly.


    Unfortunately, it appeared that killing the future Human Emperor was an unachievable goal now.


    It was impossible to kill a Human Emperor that was still growing due to the Human Emperor Dragon Qi¡¯s passive protection.


    There would be a chance to kill the Human Emperor in one fell swoop only when he matured!

 Chapter 234 - Half-Demon Old Demon Gu

    Chapter 234 Half-Demon Old Demon Gu


    ¡°Is this the place?¡±


    Zhou Feng brought along Big Yellow and encountered many so-called herdsmen along the way.


    These herdsmen were almost all at the Purple Mansion realm, and every one of them was contaminated by the Demons¡¯ aura.


    There were at least a dozen people behind them, and the Human Fetus Gu was implanted in them.


    When Zhou Feng encountered these herdsmen, he naturally was not lenient and crushed them one by one.


    Moreover, he was a little more unrestrained due to the passive Nirvana Rebirth and did not deal with those Demon minions.


    He brought Big Yellow all the way in.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    At that moment, Big Yellow growled, and all the hair on its body stood up.


    This was a situation that Zhou Feng had never encountered before.


    ¡®Wait! This aura¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed a familiar aura.


    ¡®Demon-Devouring Technique?¡¯


    As someone who had cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique before, he sensed it at the first moment.


    ¡°My good disciple! It¡¯s actually you? I thought it was just someone who was being bold!¡±


    A mature and knowledgeable voice, like slow music, entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears, while a chaotic and tyrannical aura tried to oppress his body.


    ¡®Old Demon Gu!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect to meet Old Demon Gu so quickly. He clenched his fist.


    The pressure that Old Demon Gu had given him in the past was enormous because when Old Demon Gu looked at him¡­ it was as if he was looking at food, ready to swallow him alive at any moment.


    However, the feeling that Old Demon Gu gave him now wasn¡¯t as terrifying as before.


    ¡°Only at the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s tone was calm, but it was ear-piercing in Old Demon Gu¡¯s ears.


    What did he mean by only at the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm!


    ¡°You broke through to the Purple Mansion realm!? How long has it been!?¡±


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s heart was filled with shock upon sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s aura.


    Old Demon Gu had a deep impression of Zhou Feng. After all, among the many disciples who cultivated the Demon-Devouring Technique, Zhou Feng was the only one who was extremely compatible with it.


    It had not taken Zhou Feng much time to break through from the Qi Condensation realm to the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡®It seems he has many secrets!¡¯


    Back then, Old Demon Gu had even placed a Demon-Devouring Seal on Zhou Feng¡¯s body to prevent this ultra-fat sheep from flying away.


    What had happened after that, however, was something Old Demon Gu had never expected.


    The Voodoo Cult had invaded the Tri-Gu Sect because the Sect Leader harbored rebellious thoughts against Lord Fiendish Demon.


    In the end, Zhou Feng escaped from the Tri-Gu Sect, and he had even managed to remove the Demon-Devouring Seal.


    Now that he encountered Zhou Feng again, he was already at the Purple Mansion realm.


    Thinking back to the time when Old Demon Gu wanted to break through to the Purple Mansion realm, he had taken the initiative to seek refuge with the Fiendish Demon¡¯s minions.


    He had even thrown himself into the Elysium Den, where he had been contaminated by a large amount of fiendish Demon aura.


    The Elysium Den was where the Demons gathered to vent their frustrations. Women and men of different races would be sent there for the Demons to enjoy themselves. One could imagine what kind of suffering Old Demon Gu had suffered.


    Even so, Old Demon Gu had barely broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    The Demon-Devouring Technique originated from Old Demon Gu¡¯s experience in the Elysium Den!


    That experience had even changed Old Demon Gu¡¯s sexual orientation.


    He was neither a man nor a woman. Although the Demon-Devouring Technique contributed to this, those succulent Demons had contributed way more.


    ¡®There¡¯s a big secret! This person has a big secret!¡¯


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s eyes instantly became scorching hot. He did not hide his burning passion as he stared blankly at Zhou Feng.


    Regardless of what Old Demon Gu was thinking, his current appearance perplexed Zhou Feng


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s chaotic aura fluctuated, and he turned into a smoking hot beauty. Old Demon Gu¡¯s appearance resembled that of a mature big sister. He was wearing a long gauze dress, and all parts of his body were faintly discernible.


    Every part of Old Demon Gu¡¯s body was emitting pheromones!


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that something was amiss as his body strongly reacted to this spectacle.


    ¡®It¡¯s that smell just now!¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly thought of the fragrant wind that had just brushed his face.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately sent Big Yellow into his storage bag, and then a majestic aura gushed out of his body.


    He burned his golden Blood Qi, and his fists were like golden lightning.


    ¡°You found it? Hehe~¡±


    Purple flames covered Old Demon Gu¡¯s body upon seeing that Zhou Feng had seen through his plan.


    His voice also changed from that of a mature elder sister to that of a rough and strong man.


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s right hand instantly changed from a fair and tender hand to a ferocious and terrifying muscly hand full of blue veins.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    The two fists collided.


    This simple collision was like two volcanoes erupting at the same time.


    The pure power blasted a huge crater in the ground.


    ¡°I¡¯ll let you witness my treasures!¡±


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s beautiful face had a strange smile on it as his left hand tore off the gauze dress on his body.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even blink when he saw the two jade-like mountains.


    His fists were simple and direct, turning into golden lightning that destroyed the two mountains!


    Purplish-blue blood and flesh splattered everywhere.


    Old Demon Gu felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his eyes turned red. He couldn¡¯t maintain his ¡®big sister¡¯ form.


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s muscles expanded, his white and smooth skin instantly turned rough, while claws, scales, and horns all grew out.


    Old Demon Gu suddenly turned into a monster.


    Or rather, it was more appropriate to describe him as half-human and half-beast.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s chest tightened, and his heart skipped a beat. An invisible pressure kept pressing down on him from all directions.


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape!¡±


    Old Demon Gu, who had turned into a monster, had a ferocious look on his face. When he looked at Zhou Feng, he was even more eager to get his hands on him.


    He could feel that Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh and blood were a great tonic for his body. As long as he swallowed Zhou Feng Sheng, the current predicament of his body would be alleviated.


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s current physical condition was very bad because there were too many demonic auras mixed in his body.


    In addition, he had abused the Demon-Devouring Technique, and his original personality had long disappeared.


    At that moment, Old Demon Gu lost his last shred of sanity. If Old Demon Gu didn¡¯t solve his body¡¯s condition, he wouldn¡¯t live for


    long.


    Old Demon Gu was already falling deeper and deeper in the pit of madness as the feeling of impending death was too unbearable.


    However, it was different now. Zhou Feng had appeared.


    The Human Emperor Blood in Zhou Feng¡¯s body drove Old Demon Gu crazy like a 2D waifu would to an otaku.


    That¡¯s right! The Human Emperor and the Demons were both prey and hunters.


    People who cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture could increase their cultivation by killing Demons.


    Similarly, Demons could also devour people who cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture to improve themselves.


    ¡°I¡¯m going to eat you one bite at a time!¡±


    Purple saliva slowly dripped from the gap between Old Demon Gu¡¯s sharp teeth.


    As Old Demon Gu¡¯s saliva slowly dripped, a black shadow appeared behind him.


    The black shadow was like a giant mountain, blocking the sun in the sky.

 Chapter 235 - Thank You

    Chapter 235 Thank You


    A demonic avatar slowly appeared behind Old Demon Gu.


    This demonic avatar was only a blurry one, and there was no specific shape. However, Zhou Feng could feel the suffocating pressure of a Demon.


    ¡®After submitting to the Demon, one¡¯s phenomenon turns into the image of the Demon?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned.


    He had been under the impression that the Demons¡¯ underlings relied on the Demons¡¯ power to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    In order to manifest a phenomenon, which would then turn into an avatar, one would need to rely on their power and comprehension abilities. Thus, it was impossible to manifest one under such circumstances.


    He didn¡¯t expect that Old Demon Gu had manifested a phenomenon as well. Surprisingly, the avatar resembled the Demon backing him.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s right hand transformed into a giant claw and grabbed at the air. This mere motion could tear a person into countless pieces.


    An indestructible intent immediately gushed out of Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and a blurry figure appeared behind him.


    He had already cultivated the embryonic form of his phenomenon because it was linked to the passive Invincible Aura.


    As long as the layers of Invincible Aura were stacked, Zhou Feng¡¯s phenomenon would become more and more perfect.


    Moreover, his avatar wasn¡¯t anything ordinary, but his future invincible self.


    The figure behind Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t just formed by golden light. The avatar¡¯s face was not clear, but it was as if all the living beings in the world were subservient to him the moment it appeared.


    Old Demon Gu¡¯s arrogance was instantly extinguished as Zhou Feng blocked that huge claw effortlessly.


    The short exchange triggered the passive Adapting Shell. When combined with the passive Bone Coating, Tough Skin, and Reinforced Iron Bones, Old Demon Gu¡¯s attack was completely unable to shake his physical body.


    ¡°Rise!¡±


    Zhou Feng extended his huge golden hand, and he slammed Old Demon Gu with pure strength.


    Old Demon Gu roared, his eyes bloodshot. His entire mind had been corroded by the demonic aura, and he couldn¡¯t even speak normally. He could only roar like a maniac.


    At that moment, the world was only left with a resplendent golden light and a little purple-red color.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s golden aura suppressed Old Demon Gu¡¯s aura as the disciple pinned the Master on the ground.


    Both of them were Purple Mansion cultivators, yet Zhou Feng suppressed with his pure strength Old Demon Gu, who was a 2nd Level Purple Mansion cultivator, had forged a demonic body and had the Demon-Devouring Gu¡¯s assistance.


    Firstly, although Zhou Feng was still at the 1st Level of the Purple Mansion realm, his strength was on a different level compared to when he had just broken through.


    Ever since the passive Invincible Aura¡¯s stacked layers increased and the embryonic form of the phenomenon appeared, his battle prowess experienced a ten-fold boost.


    Secondly, all sorts of passive skills were triggered, and he truly held an advantage.


    Each of these passive skills was equivalent to a type of innate divine ability.


    In other words, Zhou Feng was using more than ten innate divine abilities against a single innate divine ability.


    This advantage was truly too great.


    Thus, in just a single exchange, Old Demon Gu had already fallen into a disadvantageous position.


    Old Demon Gu struggled helplessly as Zhou Feng suppressed him.


    Being suppressed by Zhou Feng, he could only stay there in a frenzy of helplessness and rage.


    Roar!


    The demonized Old Demon Gu could not speak normally, so he could only continue to roar in rage.


    However, the gap between the two sides grew larger and larger as the battle progressed.


    That was especially the case when the passive Fighting Spirit reached the upper limit. Zhou Feng¡¯s punches caused purple blood to splash out.


    Kacha!


    The expressionless Zhou Feng smashed Old Demon Gu¡¯s claw into pieces.


    The Blood Qi on his body burned even more intensely, and Old Demon Gu¡¯s body was now charred black.


    It wasn¡¯t as if Old Demon Gu had never used his innate ability before.


    His innate ability was the same as the Demon behind him, and it was called Demon Blood Shield.


    This innate ability could burn demonic blood to form a small shield outside of his body.


    This small shield could reduce any type of damage, and coupled with the terrifying demonic body, it would be challenging to break through Old Demon Gu¡¯s defenses.


    Unfortunately, this innate ability was useless against Zhou Feng.


    The passive Armor-Piercing Spear made a miraculous contribution once again, ignoring this so-called innate ability and channeling pure destructive power in Old Demon Gu¡¯s body.


    What made Old Demon Gu most desperate was that he couldn¡¯t even touch Zhou Feng.


    Well, that was only natural since one of Zhou Feng¡¯s gold passive skills was at play.


    How would Zhou Feng describe his passive Battle Instinct in the past?


    Although it was a gold passive skill, it was not heaven-defying.


    But no matter what, it was still a gold passive skill. There must be a reason it was rated as gold. It was at least on the same level as the passive Nirvana Rebirth.


    Now, as Zhou Feng¡¯s physical strength increased, his Battle Instinct was finally showing its true colors.


    How should he put it?


    Battle Instinct was like super software. If the hardware was strong enough, it would be able to unleash terrifying power.


    However, if the hardware wasn¡¯t strong enough, then the passive Battle Instinct¡¯s potential would remain untapped due to the performance limitations.


    Now that Zhou Feng had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, his physical body, soul, and avatar were working in synergy. Thus, the passive Battle Instinct suddenly became way more useful.


    Old Demon Gu wanted to exchange injuries for injuries, but Zhou Feng¡¯s body instinctively dodged every attack without the slightest obstruction.


    Old Demon Gu instantly felt as if he had eaten shit.


    Seeing through your every move was an unbearable feeling.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Old Demon Gu let out another roar.


    Facing him was the silent Zhou Feng, whose iron fists beat him back to his original form.


    Old Demon Gu could no longer maintain his demonized form.


    And because Zhou Feng¡¯s hands were too heavy, Old Demon Gu was already a pile of rotten meat when he reverted to his human form.


    Looking at the dying Old Demon Gu, Zhou Feng slowly restrained his aura.


    Old Demon Gu, the person he had been terrified of in the past, was only so-so. He didn¡¯t even use his full strength.


    Zhou Feng had thrown a few casual punches, yet Old Demon Gu couldn¡¯t defend against them.


    ¡°Why!? It hasn¡¯t even been a few months! How did you grow to such a level!?¡±


    Old Demon Gu kept panting as if he couldn¡¯t understand.


    How did Zhou Feng cultivate? How did he reach such a level in such a short period!?


    His battle prowess was astonishing!


    Zhou Feng glanced at Old Demon Gu, who was lying on the ground. ¡°Where is the current Tri-Gu Sect?¡±


    Old Demon Gu was not dead yet because Zhou Feng wanted to ask some questions.


    As for answering Old Demon Gu¡¯s questions? What kind of joke was this?


    ¡°Head north from here! You¡¯ll reach it if you keep walking!¡± Old Demon Gu secretly gathered his strength and waited for an opportunity to escape while answering his question truthfully. ¡®Sure enough, I¡¯m still an old fox. Do you think I don¡¯t have any tricks up my sleeve?¡¯


    Old Demon Gu knew he wouldn¡¯t die for the time being as he was still of value. He would keep his life until his value disappeared.


    ¡°Thank you,¡± Zhou Feng replied politely.


    Following that, his golden fist smashed Old Demon Gu¡¯s head.


    Its speed was so fast that Old Demon Gu could not react.


    This punch crushed Old Demon Gu¡¯s head along with the stealthily squirming Demon-Devouring Gu


    The passive Soul Harvesting and Invincible Aura were triggered!


    Zhou Feng looked at his passive skills¡¯ status on the skill panel before nodding in satisfaction.

 Chapter 236 - Heavens Gift?

    Chapter 236 Heaven¡¯s Gift?


    Not even in his wildest dreams could Old Demon Gu could imagine that Zhou Feng would crush his head after answering his question.


    Normally, shouldn¡¯t Zhou Feng have a lot of questions?


    Old Demon Gu bet that Zhou Feng had a lot of things he wanted to know, especially about Demons and all kinds of secrets.


    Old Demon Gu had been under the impression he would be safe as long as his answers kept Zhou Feng happy.


    After all, a dying person was no threat to Zhou Feng. He had no reason to attack him.


    It was because of this miscalculation that Old Demon Gu kept making small moves behind his back.


    He had secretly released the Demon-Devouring Gu in his body.


    Although Old Demon Gu had been contaminated by the demonic aura, he did not forsake the Gu system.


    Surprisingly, the Demon-Devouring Gu had mutated due to the demonic aura.


    Still, the Demon-Devouring Gu could not interfere at all in the battle earlier.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was too terrifying, causing the Demon-Devouring Gu to feel an invisible fear.


    In the end, Old Demon Gu planned to use the Demon-Devouring Gu to send reinforcements.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not give him a chance.


    No matter what kind of answer Old Demon Gu gave him, Zhou Feng would kill him.


    As for why he did this, Zhou Feng naturally felt that something was wrong. Instead of wasting time to overanalyze the situation, he could just crush them all to death and be done with it.


    ¡°Heading north?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked to the north, and then the wisp of demonic aura was absorbed by the Human Emperor Ring on his hand.


    The Human Emperor Blood in his body began to boil again.


    This wisp of pure demonic aura was a great tonic to those that cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture.


    The Human Emperor Ring helped him filter out negative emotions, and the remaining pure demonic aura strengthened his physical body.


    As expected of the Human Emperor Ring. It was as if Zhou Feng was a game player that could level up by killing monsters with this ring.


    Naturally, the monsters, or EXP, were the Demons.


    However, burning the Human Emperor Blood also caused various injuries to Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body.


    Every time he used the Human Emperor Scripture, his body would suffer more or less damage.


    more


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng¡¯s body would become stronger every time he recovered.


    It was because he had the passive Tenacious Heart. Otherwise, the Human Emperor Scripture could not be cultivated by ordinary people.


    Zhou Feng rested for some time. When the passive Tenacious Heart healed his injuries, he set off.


    After killing Old Demon Gu, Zhou Feng had a deep evaluation of his battle prowess.


    He felt that he could be a little more presumptuous due to the passive Nirvana Rebirth.


    The Demons¡¯ minions were equivalent to his experience points. As long as he killed them, his cultivation would increase.


    This kind of thing was rare. He had to kill as many Demon Generals as possible before the Demon Kings could react.


    ¡®Let¡¯s slaughter the Demon Generals!¡¯


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not restrain his aura. Instead, he released his aura and slowly walked north.


    ¡°Another one died?¡±


    A¡¯Rixi suddenly opened his eyes as his slaves were disappearing one by one.


    At first, he thought that this was just normal wear and tear. After all, his slaves usually had the habit of fighting with each other.


    He did not pay heed to such trifling matters.


    His ranch had a large number of human births every year.


    Relying on this period of accumulation, A¡¯Rixi felt that he was about to step into the Demon King rank.


    But if too many slaves died, the efficiency of collecting Human Fetus Gu would decrease, meaning his breakthrough plan would be delayed. This was something he could not accept.


    ¡°What happened?¡± A¡¯Rixi pondered for a while. He did not plan to take action personally, so he gave an order to all the slaves. ¡°Enemies are attacking. Everyone has to put aside their grudges and exterminate the invaders.¡±


    A¡¯Rixi slowly closed his scarlet eyes. ¡°Heavenly Star Ancestor¡­ He should be dying soon!¡±


    At that moment, there was something even more important to him.


    After Zhou Feng released his aura, he attracted countless Demon minions. Most of them were Soul Altar cultivators while a small number of them were Purple Mansion ones.


    Given his strength, these minions weren¡¯t his match at all.


    He slaughtered all his opponents!


    The word ¡®Die¡¯ echoed non-stop!


    Zhou Feng also took advantage of this perfect opportunity to vent the negative emotions in his heart.


    Ever since his transmigration to this world, he had a feeling that everything he did was restricted.


    Even when others thought that Zhou Feng was extremely arrogant, he was very careful in his heart, afraid that a passing almighty being would slap him to death.


    Now, he could finally do as he pleased without considering the consequences!


    Crazy slaughter!


    Unknowingly, Zhou Feng had arrived at the newly established Tri-Gu Sect.


    And the surroundings were already filled with people.


    These people were all staring at Zhou Feng like tigers eyeing their prey.


    The redness in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes slowly faded, and a trace of clarity returned.


    ¡®I was just¡­¡¯


    At that moment, he felt that his whole body was soaked. Blood, flesh, and some unknown objects were all hanging on his body.


    The Human Emperor Blood in his body was like a raging fire.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have entered a special state just now. It was as if he had entered a dream, and his body was driven by instinct.


    His consciousness had been in a deep slumber as threads of laws and principles interweaved in his mind.


    ¡®What kind of battle art is this? How did I¡­¡¯


    After waking up, Zhou Feng suddenly found that there was a battle art in his mind.


    This battle art didn¡¯t have a name, and he didn¡¯t remember when he had learned it.


    ¡®Heaven¡¯s Gift of battle art?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little confused! With his comprehension and talent, he could actually trigger Heaven¡¯s Gift of battle art?


    Heaven¡¯s Gift of battle art!


    This kind of situation was extremely rare, and only peerless heaven¡¯s favorites¡¯ experienced something like that.


    These kinds of people did not need to use other people¡¯s cultivation techniques or dao arts.


    They might have just stood under a tree for a while, or they might have been in a daze for a while, before inexplicably comprehending a dao art.


    For example, a Buddha in the west had sat under the Bodhi Tree for three days and comprehended a supreme Buddhist technique that could suppress the endless legions of Demons and Devils in the west.


    One had to know that the west itself was a place where Demons and Devils, especially ancestor-level existences, gathered.


    When that Buddha had come into being, he suppressed countless Demons and Devils and used the supreme Buddhist technique to convert thousands of them.


    He had built countless Buddhist temples, suppressed the west, and enjoyed a supreme fate.


    These things were recorded in a random book.


    At that time, Zhou Feng had only treated it as a novel


    Now, something like Heaven¡¯s Gift happened to him?


    This was more or less unbelievable.


    ¡°Do it!¡±


    ¡°Kill this person! Then offer it to the lord of the Sacred Clan!¡±


    ¡°Die!¡±


    The cries instantly woke Zhou Feng up.


    Then, Zhou Feng subconsciously clenched his right fist. Golden light shone and rumbling sounds echoed. The black sky shook violently as if it was going to shake down the stars.


    This punch seemed to have triggered something as a dragon¡¯s roar rose!

 Chapter 237 - Nuclear Bomb Fist?

    Chapter 237 Nuclear Bomb Fist?


    Everyone¡¯s heads seemed to have been smashed along with this dragon roar.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fist seemed to be engraved with countless laws and principles, exuding an aura of world domination.


    Instantly, a huge chasm appeared in front of him.


    At that moment, more than half of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s people died.


    He even killed an Elder who had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    They had all been smashed apart by a single punch before they could make a single sound.


    ¡°It¡¯s him? Zhou Feng? Why is he back?¡±


    ¡°Who? Who Is he?¡±


    ¡°This person was once a disciple of our Tri-Gu Sect, but he suddenly disappeared! For some reason, he has appeared again!¡±


    Finally, someone from the Tri-Gu Sect recognized Zhou Feng. After all, he had been a famous figure in the Tri-Gu Sect back then, and many people recognized him.


    After the Voodoo Cult¡¯s invasion, many people from the Tri-Gu Sect found out that Zhou Feng had betrayed the sect.


    At that time, many people had been mocking Zhou Feng.


    Although the Tri-Gu Sect had met with a great disaster back then, it was still a large sect with countless resources behind it.


    If one wanted to continue on the path of cultivation, these cultivation resources would be essential.


    Under such circumstances, betraying the sect and becoming a lone cultivator was simply the stupidest thing to do,


    Many elite disciples had died during the great disaster, so it became easier for others to obtain resources as the number of disciples continued to increase.


    Unfortunately, this ridicule did not last for long. Soon, all the surviving Tri-Gu disciples were corroded by the demonic aura and became the Demons¡¯ minions.


    Now, they were neither human nor ghost.


    ¡°Impudent! How dare you come to the Tri-Gu Sect and behave atrociously! Ten-Thousand Soul Devouring Banner! Everyone, set up the great formation!¡±


    Zhou Feng sent the newly built sect base in chaos, so the new Tri-Gu Sect Leader finally appeared.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had been heading north and killing anyone he saw. Now, the smell of blood on his body caused everyone present to tremble.


    Especially the hot Blood Qi on his body that illuminated everything.


    Even the new Sect Leader, Leng Shou, was afraid.


    Still, Leng Shou knew that he absolutely could not back down. If he backed down, he would have to hand over the Sect Leader position that he had fought so hard for.


    Furthermore, A¡¯Rixi had already said that he had to do his best to eliminate the intruders.


    Leng Shou could renege on his words if it were someone else, but not A¡¯Rixi.


    The previous Sect Leader was a great example. He had died without a sound, not even leaving behind a complete corpse.


    Thus, Leng Shou immediately organized the others.


    As the current Sect Leader, Leng Shou still had some prestige, especially in this situation where the morale of the army had been lost.


    When the others received the order, they subconsciously surrounded Zhou Feng again.


    A mysterious large formation spread out, with the Ten Thousand Soul Devouring Banner in Leng Shou¡¯s hand as the core of the formation.


    The Ten Thousand Soul Devouring Banner could be considered the most important treasure of the Tri-Gu Sect. After many years of support, it faintly gave off law power.


    It had already transformed into a half-dao weapon!


    A dao weapon was stronger than a spiritual weapon. From a certain point of view, a dao weapon was a manifestation of a law.


    The power it could display was naturally stronger.


    ¡®Is it really Heaven¡¯s Gift?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was still immersed in this heaven-bestowed battle art.


    This was because this heaven-bestowed battle art was too mysterious. Moreover, it seemed to have been specially created for him.


    Regardless of its characteristics or other aspects, it perfectly suited him.


    This heaven-bestowed battle art would cause a serious backlash every time it was used, but it would not immediately take effect.


    It was perfectly compatible with his terrifying recovery ability.


    The only pity was that this battle art only had three punches¡ªthe contents behind them were all blurry.


    These three punches corresponded to three realms, Body Tempering realm, Qi Gathering realm, and Soul Altar realm.


    Each punch was Zhou Feng¡¯s comprehension of that realm.


    ¡°He is still daydreaming? He is courting death!¡±


    ¡°Myriad Gu Immortal Killer!¡±


    When Leng Shou saw Zhou Feng daydreaming, he did not hesitate and immediately seized this opportunity.


    As for whether it was a trap, Leng Shou did not consider it at all.


    There were so many people on his side, was he afraid of Zhou Feng alone?


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi transformed into a strange black fog, and densely packed Gus appeared from within.


    Flying centipedes, poisonous scorpions, flower toads, five-ringed snakes, and other different Gu were displayed one by one.


    The difference between a group of wandering soldiers and organized sect disciples was simply too great.


    In the past, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need to expend much energy to crush this group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals in front of him.


    But now, with Leng Shou as the core, after these people formed a great formation¡­


    Zhou Feng felt a wave of pressure. This pressure caused him to withdraw from the state of Enlightenment.


    Originally, he wanted to take advantage of that special state to properly comprehend it.


    Unfortunately, the special state was gone now.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    A trace of anger flashed across Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    One might never enter this special state in their lifetime, but now it was actually interrupted!


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    After completely waking up, he simply threw a punch.


    This punch contained all of his insights into the Qi Gathering realm.


    Zhou Feng was not stuck in the Qi Gathering realm for long. Basically, he had been breaking through, breaking through, breaking through, breaking through!


    Other than that, he would be devouring Spiritual Qi like a madman.


    Therefore, his inspiration in the Qi Gathering realm was the devouring aspect!


    I want more Spiritual Qi! I want to break through faster!


    All the Spiritual Qi in the surrounding seemed to be subjected to a terrifying pulling force, and the huge amount of Spiritual Qi formed a huge whale. This huge whale opened its mouth to devour the sky, swallowing everything in its stomach.


    Then, it formed a huge ball.


    This ball contained more than ten miles of Spiritual Qi, including the Gus formed by the formation-all of them were swallowed!


    ¡°This¡­ This¡­ This¡­¡±


    Looking at this ball that contained terrifying energy, Leng Shou almost couldn¡¯t hold the Ten Thousand Soul Devouring Banner in his hand.


    That huge ball filled with destructive energy seemed to be able to blow up everything within a few hundred miles.


    The next moment, the ball released all the energy it had absorbed!


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    The scene was like that from an atomic bomb explosion.


    First, there was a blinding light, then there was scorching heat, and finally, there was an explosion that destroyed everything.


    Zhou Feng himself didn¡¯t escape this explosion.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body suffered a serious backlash after this punch, and he could escape from the explosion range.


    There was complete silence. After the explosion, almost everything in the surroundings had disappeared. Even two small hills had been flattened.


    All that was left was a piece of scorched earth and a charred body.

 Chapter 238 - ARixi was Awakened

    Chapter 238 A¡¯Rixi was Awakened


    Dead! All the members of the Tri-Gu Sect were dead!


    This included the minions who were attracted here and even the newly established base of the Tri-Gu Sect was razed to the ground.


    Zhou Feng had never thought his punch would be so terrifying. Even he himself was affected.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Nirvana Rebirth had almost been triggered.


    Fortunately, his physical defense had broken through the sky due to his various passive buffs. That was why he survived the terrifying explosion.


    Of course, although he survived, he only had half a breath left.


    The charred body lying in the middle of the scorched earth was actually Zhou Feng.


    If it wasn¡¯t for his chest¡¯s slight undulations, one might have really treated him as a corpse.


    ¡°How terrifying!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt his entire body burning, and he couldn¡¯t muster any strength.


    Soon, his passive Tenacious Heart got into work, consuming his Blood Qi at an alarming rate and nourishing his charred and cracked body.


    After a few seconds, Zhou Feng barely regained his mobility.


    Then, he took all sorts of things out of his storage ring with great difficulty. No matter what they were, he just stuffed them into his mouth for his Level-2 Gluttony to turn them into nourishment for his recovery.


    Zhou Feng finally had time to reflect on the previous punch after recovering a little.


    That punch could be said to be the true portrayal of him in the Qi Gathering realm.


    No matter what the consequences were, he would forcefully swallow all kinds of things and then break through all kinds of bottlenecks, without considering any consequences.


    This kind of fist technique was truly worthy of being specially created for him.


    If it were any other person, this would simply be a life-and-death fist.


    In comparison, a fist that belonged to the Body Tempering realm was not that terrifying


    The first fist Zhou Feng had unintentionally thrown out earlier was his comprehension of the Body Tempering realm.


    Zhou Feng had broken through the Body Tempering realm¡¯s stages swiftly, so his comprehension was limited.


    He had only focused on forcefully strengthening his Blood Qi. Thus, the first punch had to do with suppressing others with force. It was pure Blood Qi combined with a domineering aura.


    Although there was also a backlash, it was way milder than the second punch.


    ¡°This Is¡­¡±


    Just as he was still in a state of reminiscence, a cool sensation rushed straight to his head.


    It felt as if cool spring water was being poured on his head.


    It was indeed refreshing!


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? What¡¯s happening?¡± Zhou Feng immediately opened his skill panel after sensing the change.


    The change was most likely caused by a passive skill.


    As expected, the moment he opened his skill panel, he saw the passive Soul Harvesting¡¯s notifications.


    ¡°Sou power +1!¡±


    ¡°Sou power +1!¡±


    ¡°Sou power +1!¡±


    Although the passive Soul Harvesting worked in the background and its effect seemed to have lessened after reaching the Purple Mansion realm, it fiercely refreshed his sense of presence this time.


    His explosive fist may have almost killed him, but it also crushed everyone within a radius of dozens of miles.


    The death of those people was a result of his attack, so the passive Soul Harvesting was triggered.


    In that instant, he had collected at least a few hundred souls, which were then converted into soul power.


    It was precisely because of this that Zhou Feng felt a cool sensation.


    His soul was constantly being strengthened.


    The benefit of the strengthened soul was that Zhou Feng could feel the power of heaven and earth even more clearly.


    ¡°My phenomenon! This is¡­¡±


    At the same time, Zhou Feng felt that the embryonic form of his avatar was about to solidify. He believed it would not take long before he could materialize his own phenomenon and not a mere avatar.


    At that time, he could even use the avatar to assist him in battle.


    After a while, Zhou Feng felt that the injuries all over his body were almost healed.


    Then, he suddenly realized a problem.


    ¡°Wait! Why is there no reaction from the Human Emperor Ring?¡±


    He had just killed so many humans, Demons, and Demon minions, so he should have collected a lot of demonic aura.


    Why didn¡¯t the Human Emperor Ring respond?


    Zhou Feng looked at the ring on his hand and found that the ring had turned into bluestone again.


    ¡°Could it be that the mysterious state is because of the Human Emperor Ring?¡±


    The ring seemed to have lost its vitality.


    There was no love for no reason! There was no hatred for no reason!


    Zhou Feng was aware of his aptitude. If he didn¡¯t have the skill panel and an indestructible dao heart, he wouldn¡¯t have made it this far.


    As for things like epiphanies and Heaven¡¯s Gifts, he did not even dare to think about it.


    However, he had just entered that mysterious state.


    Coupled with the fact that the Human Emperor Ring had become like this, the answer seemed to be very obvious.


    ¡°From the looks of it, this Human Emperor Ring is an incredible treasure!¡±


    Zhou Feng gently rubbed the ring. This thing could be considered his greatest fortuitous encounter other than the skill panel.


    Of course, the passive Appraising Eye was his first achievement. He would not have been able to discover the Human Emperor Ring without this passive skill.


    Unexpectedly, the ring seemed to have fallen into a dormant state. If he wanted to reactivate it, he would need more demonic


    aura.


    ¡°Then it¡¯s time to kill a Demon!¡±


    Zhou Feng was full of confidence because of his new fist techniques.


    That¡¯s right! About this heaven-sent battle art! Should he give it a name?


    No matter what, this was also a battle art, and it was created for him.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t I call it Invincible Fist! One person, two fists, I¡¯m Invincible!¡±


    Although the name was a little vulgar and arrogant, Zhou Feng represented his expectations of himself.


    Moreover, as long as he didn¡¯t foolishly shout it out, who would know what this fist technique was called?


    When he was qualified to shout it out, then this fist technique would be worthy of its name.


    Just as Zhou Feng was excitedly naming the fist technique he had just obtained¡­


    A¡¯Rixi, who was originally in a deep sleep, was instantly startled awake!


    ¡°What happened? My servants¡­¡± A¡¯Rixi realized that the number of his slaves had decreased by half in an instant!


    ¡®Impossible! Who was it? Could it be that a human expert has come?¡¯


    Many human slaves had died in an instant, which made A¡¯Rixi suspect that a human expert had crossed the line.


    To be able to kill so many people in an instant, A¡¯Rixi couldn¡¯t think of anyone other than a human expert.


    As for the other Demons, after sensing the slaves¡¯ demonic aura, they definitely wouldn¡¯t make a move.


    This was an unspoken rule between demons.


    ¡°What exactly happened!?¡±


    A¡¯Rixi, who originally wanted to continue cultivating, felt that he couldn¡¯t continue like this.


    If all his slaves died, then his hopes of breaking through to the King rank would fall through.


    He would have to find out for himself what was going on.

 Chapter 239 - Seemed to be a Little Weak!

    Chapter 239 Seemed to be a Little Weak!


    A¡¯Rixi vaguely felt that something was not right.


    Many slaves suddenly disappeared. Could it be that a human Divine Ability expert had really crossed the line?


    If that were the case, then that would be great!


    ¡°A Divine Ability expert! I haven¡¯t tasted them for a long time!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi guessed that a Divine Ability expert was causing trouble, but the expression on his face wasn¡¯t one of worry.


    It was excitement!


    That¡¯s right! It was excitement!


    As long as it wasn¡¯t a Divine Ability expert like the Heavenly Star Patriarch, A¡¯Rixi was confident he could beat them.


    Even though he was a pinnacle Demon General, beating a human that had just broken through to the Divine Ability realm was a piece of cake.


    Crossing one¡¯s territory to challenge them was a common occurrence for Demons.


    Before this, Demons and Devils weren¡¯t known as such. It was only because the Demons and Devils had taught a terrible lesson to humans.


    Even when the first Human Emperor had still been alive, the Demons and Devils hadn¡¯t been completely eliminated.


    They were in hiding. From this, one could see just how terrifying these Demons and Devils


    were.


    Those crazy Human Emperors would have eradicated them if they didn¡¯t possess sufficient strength.


    This was because the original intention of the Human Emperor Scripture was to eliminate Demons. Every time a Demon was eliminated, the Human Emperor¡¯s strength would become stronger.


    on w


    Under such circumstances, almost every Human Emperor would try to exterminate the Demons.


    ¡°I hope I won¡¯t return empty-handed!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi stretched his muscles and bones before crawling out of the cave.


    Under the sunlight, the scales on A¡¯Rixi¡¯s body reflected waves of light.


    The purplish-blue scales were tightly sewn together. At first glance, they gave off an oppressing feeling.


    Then, there were a pair of horns, scarlet vertical pupils, and a thick and strong tail.


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s current appearance perfectly matched the impression humans had of Demons.


    ¡°Is it right in front? This special feeling¡­¡±


    At this moment, Zhou Feng followed that special feeling and walked toward A¡¯Rixi¡¯s position step by step.


    This feeling was very special as if there was an old enemy in front of him.


    It was constantly attracting him to walk forward.


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s guess, there was probably a real Demon in front of him, and the Human Emperor Scripture was constantly guiding him.


    It was as if there was a voice in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears that kept chanting, ¡°Kill the Demon in front!


    ¡°Your strength will rise to a higher level!


    ¡°Your body will be tempered like never before!


    ¡°Your soul will also be strengthened like never before!¡±


    Similarly, A¡¯Rixi also had this feeling.


    That sense of predestination was constantly attracting him.


    Zhou Feng and A¡¯Rixi finally met.


    The sun was high in the sky, and the land was red for a thousand miles.


    The two of them looked at each other. It looked strange, but it was also very reasonable.


    ¡®Is this a real Demon?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng first saw A¡¯Rixi, a cold and gloomy aura began to hover around him.


    Even though the sun was high in the sky, the cold and gloomy aura was like gangrene that was attached to the bone.


    At the same time, the Human Emperor Blood in his body began to boil after sensing the cold aura.


    There was no need for Zhou Feng to take the initiative to burn his Blood Qi. It began to burn on its own.


    The temperature rose rapidly, and golden flames enveloped the surroundings.


    A semi-solid avatar slowly appeared behind him.


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s invincible phenomenon. As soon as it appeared, it gave people a feeling of looking down on the world and being the only one in the world.


    And this time, the appearance of the avatar was no longer a dry shadow.


    There were other things around the avatar. The sun and moon hung above the avatar¡¯s head. There were also rivers, mountains, and plains around.


    ¡°The Human Emperor! The Human Emperor isn¡¯t dead yet!¡±


    When A¡¯Rixi saw the avatar behind Zhou Feng, the cold aura on his body soared, and the bloodline memories automatically appeared in his mind.


    ¡®Die! This person must die!¡¯


    The inherited memories kept reminding A¡¯Rixi to kill Zhou Feng here.


    If it weren¡¯t for that damned Human Emperor, A¡¯Rixi wouldn¡¯t be in the Purple Mansion realm now.


    He, a mighty Demon, was only a Demon General. It was simply a joke.


    Why was A¡¯Rixi able to look down on the human Divine Ability cultivators, except for a terrifying monster like the Heavenly Star Patriarch?


    There was no one in this area worthy of A¡¯Rixi¡¯s attention.


    One of the most important reasons was that A¡¯Rixi himself had fallen from a higher realm.


    He was currently recovering his strength step by step.


    There was no need for words. This person in front of him was actually the successor of the Human Emperor, so he had to die here today.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    The demonic flame around A¡¯Rixi¡¯s body expanded. The surrounding air shook, while the fabrics of space were on the verge of shattering.


    Zhou Feng also clenched his fists. His Battle Instinct directly helped him react.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    A sound that was like the explosion of a mountain rang out.


    This was also the first time Zhou Feng felt what it was like to have his body crushed.


    In almost all of his previous battles, he could rely on his body to crush his opponent.


    However, all of his opponent¡¯s attacks had been ineffective against him. That feeling was simply too great. Now, he also experienced what his previous opponents felt like. After receiving A¡¯Rixi¡¯s punch, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi surged, and pure strength continuously coursed through his body.


    This caused Zhou Feng¡¯s ears to ring and his eyes to turn blurry. His chest felt stuffy, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.


    ¡°He¡¯s actually so weak? That¡¯s right! What era is it now? The last Human Emperor died a long time ago!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi, who originally looked as if he was facing a great enemy, was completely stunned by how weak Zhou Feng was.


    He was actually so weak? This wasn¡¯t right!


    Although Zhou Feng looked as if he had just stepped into the Purple Mansion realm, A¡¯Rixi didn¡¯t look down on him at all.


    He was using almost all of his strength, and he was already secretly contacting other Demons.


    He wanted to keep Zhou Feng here in the Red Earth. If he relied on himself to keep the future Human Emperor here, A¡¯Rixi wouldn¡¯t have any hope at all.


    This was because every single one of these Human Emperors was a freak. Even the successors were madmen and freaks.


    Their strength didn¡¯t match their cultivation level at all, and they weren¡¯t afraid of death when they fought.


    If a monster whose battle prowess far exceeded their cultivation level was not afraid of death, they would always want to die together with you.


    Who could fight against such a madman?


    The most terrifying thing was that these Human Emperors and their successors were getting fiercer and fiercer as they fought.


    Every time you thought you were going to win, he would suddenly come and blow you


    up.


    After the last Human Emperor¡¯s death, these Demons had once surrounded and attacked those who cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture.


    The reason there were so few people cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture was partly because of these Demons.


    Even so, these Demons had suffered a great loss. Those who cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture were all fierce people.


    Later on, the Demons learned their lesson. After discovering that there was a successor to the Human Emperor, they would stall them and encircle them with reinforcements to kill them.


    A¡¯Rixi had just done the same thing, but to his surprise, the successor to the Human Emperor in front of him seemed a little weak!

 Chapter 240 - Ruthless?

    Chapter 240 Ruthless?


    ¡°Too weak! Too weak!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi was a little displeased. This person in front of him did not make him feel like he was facing a great enemy.


    If other members of his race knew about this, wouldn¡¯t he lose face?


    Still, A¡¯Rixi did not hold back.


    Relying on his terrifying physical body, he still suppressed Zhou Feng.


    ¡®So strong!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not know how long it had been since he had felt such a sense of powerlessness.


    Not only was the body of the Demon in front of him even more monstrous than his, but its battle arts were also ridiculously high. Every move he made was like an elephant stomping on an ant. There was nothing strange about


    it.


    Moreover, as long as Zhou Feng moved, the other party seemed to know what he would do next.


    To be honest, if not for the passive Battle Instinct, Zhou Feng might have been crushed already. This was a crushing from both raw strength and skill.


    This outcome was to be expected, however.


    A¡¯Rixi was a Demon that had existed for at least several thousand years. His battle memory had long been polished to the peak.


    Although his realm had decreased a lot, the decline in his physical body was not that great.


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s raw power was enough for him to fight against a Divine Ability cultivator without a disadvantage.


    One had to know a Demon¡¯s physical body was their capital.


    A¡¯Rixi did not even use his innate divine ability.


    The entire red land was trembling. The battle between the two sides had only lasted for a few breaths.


    The surroundings had become a mess, and the entire land had cracked.


    And this was only caused by the aftershocks from the collision of their bodies.


    ¡°He withstood it!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was pale, no different than a dead person.


    At least, he managed to withstand A¡¯Rixi¡¯s barrage of attacks due to his passive Adaptive Shell.


    At the same time, his passive Fighting Spirit was slowly stacking up, giving him a chance to counterattack.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    A¡¯Rixi realized that something was wrong.


    The person opposite him clearly looked like he was on the verge of collapse, but no matter what, he did not fall.


    Instead, he was slowly starting to counterattack?


    Every time Zhou Feng attacked, his punches carried a trace of force that penetrated his scales.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s bloodline memories awoke once again and replayed a similar scene from the past.


    At that moment, A¡¯Rixi no longer dared to hold back.


    A scarlet-blood avatar appeared, and the faint sound of tens of thousands of people wailing reverberated throughout the area. That tragic cries even cracked the avatar behind Zhou Feng


    Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar was crazily suppressed all this time, but the moment the cold and strange blood avatar appeared, it constricted Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar from all directions.


    At the same time, A¡¯Rixi also used his innate divine ability. A¡¯Rixi¡¯s scales seemed to have been dyed black, his face distorted, and a long spear appeared in his hand.


    The spearhead was half-broken, while the shaft looked old and had spiderweb-like cracks all over it.


    There was still a trace of golden blood on the spearhead, and that golden blood gave Zhou Feng a familiar feeling.


    But what made Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stand on end the most was the distortion on the spearhead.


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s move was a killing move.


    He didn¡¯t want to give Zhou Feng any chance.


    This spear belonged to a successor of the Human Emperor that A¡¯Rixi had killed.


    There were remnants of the Human Emperor Blood on it, but it had been corroded after such a long time.


    This spear had long been unable to bear the burden. It could only be used once at most, and it would then collapse.


    Nonetheless, A¡¯Rixi was determined to use it to deal with Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Danger!


    After the spear appeared, Zhou Feng¡¯s temples began to throb wildly.


    He could not hold back!


    At that moment, he felt that he would experience his first death if he didn¡¯t fight with all his might.


    Originally, he didn¡¯t want to use his final trump card right from the start.


    But now, he had to use it.


    ¡®Invincible Fist! Second Punch: Nuke Punch!¡¯


    The Human Emperor Blood in Zhou Feng¡¯s body churned as he used the second punch of the Invincible Fist.


    It was as if a giant whale had appeared in the void.


    The giant whale opened its mouth wide, and it devoured all the energy in the surroundings.


    The terrifying suction force even shook A¡¯Rixi.


    ¡°I knew it! These lunatics aren¡¯t that easy to deal with!¡±


    A hint of viciousness appeared in A¡¯Rixi¡¯s eyes. He didn¡¯t care what Zhou Feng wanted to do and rushed in front of Zhou Feng.


    He could not be cowardly! He could not be afraid! He could not show a hint of cowardice in front of these lunatics!


    This was a piece of advice that came from the bloodline. A¡¯Rixi¡¯s ancestors had fought with countless Human Emperors.


    It was the essence of countless experiences and was engraved in the future generations¡¯ bloodline to ensure their survival.


    The most important piece of advice when fighting against a Human Emperor was to be¡­ ruthless!


    They must be ruthless, and even more so with themselves! They must not be afraid of death!


    Once you showed a hint of fear, the one who would die would definitely be you. If you fought with your life on the line, there might be a chance of survival.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    The sound of a nuclear explosion echoed as a dazzling light enveloped the surroundings.


    Zhou Feng burned the Human Emperor Blood this time, so the explosion was even more terrifying than the last time.


    Moreover, Nuke Punch would absorb all the energy in the surroundings before it was unable to maintain its balance and exploded.


    Therefore, under normal circumstances, the stronger the enemy was, the stronger the punch would be.


    The loud explosion could even be faintly heard by the people stationed at the borders of the Demon territory.


    ¡°Did you guys hear anything just now? Why do I feel like I heard an explosion?¡±


    ¡°Strange! I think I heard it too!¡±


    ¡°What happened? Should we report it?¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s report it!¡±


    III1


    The explosion that swept away the surroundings slowly subsided, and the dust that rose into the sky also began to dissipate.


    ¡°What a terrifying punch!¡±


    The first to appear was A¡¯Rixi, and his face had the expression of someone who had survived a disaster.


    At present, A¡¯Rixi looked extremely miserable. More than half of the scales on his body had been shattered, and his aura was slightly chaotic.


    But in general, his life was not in danger.


    After all, A¡¯Rixi¡¯s innate ability was Ultimate Defense. Zhou Feng¡¯s Invincible Fist could at most seriously injure him, but not kill him.


    And if he was not mistaken, at the same time that Zhou Feng had thrown that punch, the long spear in A¡¯Rixi¡¯s hand had pierced through Zhou Feng.


    Sure enough, when A¡¯Rixi looked forward, Zhou Feng stood in a daze on the spot.


    The long spear had pierced through his chest, and it was stabbed into the ground.


    Zhou Feng himself was also charred black, and there was almost no breath left.


    ¡°Looks like I won! As expected! A Human Emperor can¡¯t appear in this era! The Human Emperor Dragon Qi is not enough to give birth to a new Human Emperor!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s face revealed an excited expression.


    In this way, he could be considered to have killed a future Human Emperor.


    Moreover, this person¡¯s flesh and blood should be an excellent tonic.


    ¡°Perhaps, I might be able to recover to the King rank by relying on this person¡¯s flesh and blood.¡¯


    As he thought about this, A¡¯Rixi¡¯s mouth began to drool.


    However, it was precisely because of A¡¯Rixi¡¯s imagination that Zhou Feng was able to break out of his battle state.


    Thus, his Tenacious Heart was triggered!


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t dead yet! His heart was still beating slightly.


    There was still a lot of Blood Qi left in his withered body, and it was turned into nutrients!

 Chapter 241 - Despair

    Chapter 241 Despair


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyelids twitched slightly, and then he felt as if an engine had started.


    When the passive Tenacious Heart was triggered, the first thing that recovered was the huge wound that had pierced through his chest.


    He began to recover at the speed of the naked eye. When the passive Tenacious Heart worked in tandem with the passive Unyielding Heart, Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery speed was beyond imagination.


    This time, his life was completely hanging by a thread, and he exerted passive Unyielding Heart¡¯s effect to the extreme.


    Zhou Feng, who was in a daze, immediately woke up.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    After waking up, he first roared angrily, ignoring the long spear stuck in his body.


    He immediately took all kinds of things out of his storage ring and began to swallow them.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    A¡¯Rixi was happy just a moment ago, yet his face betrayed a trace of astonishment now.


    What was going on?


    The spear had clearly killed Zhou Feng. How did he suddenly come back to life!?


    ¡®Impossible! Innate divine ability?¡¯


    Like his previous opponents, A¡¯Rixi immediately thought this was Zhou Feng¡¯s innate divine ability.


    If it was an innate divine ability, it wouldn¡¯t be strange.


    ¡°I knew it! These perverts can¡¯t die so easily!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s expression was somewhat ugly. After experiencing the initial shock, he quickly accepted this fact.


    vas


    After all, this was very normal. Regardless of whether it was the former Human Emperor or the successor of the Human Emperor, these people were all cockroaches, and their vitality was unbelievably tenacious.


    Their steel-like willpower was also far beyond ordinary people. It was impossible to kill such a person alone.


    A¡¯Rixi was not in a hurry because he had just informed his fellow Demons with a secret technique.


    He believed that the other Demons would arrive soon.


    When the time came, they would slowly surround and kill Zhou Feng.


    Speaking of which, a long time ago, killing the successors of the Human Emperor was the Demons¡¯ coming of age ceremony.


    Only by successfully killing a successor could they truly come of age.


    They would have the right to go out to hunt, build their territory, and subdue their slaves.


    Otherwise, they would not have the right to leave the Demons; land.


    However, with the disappearance of the Human Emperor and the successors, this tradition gradually disappeared.


    Now, they could only reminisce about the coming of age ceremony of their ancestors.


    With that thought in mind, A¡¯Rixi just quietly blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s path of retreat.


    He watched as Zhou Feng helplessly and slowly recovered from his injuries.


    A¡¯Rixi believed that this kind of terrifying recovery had a price.


    Among the Demons¡¯ racial talents, there was one with a similar price. The price was to consume the Demon body to quickly recover from their injuries.


    The Demons relied on their bodies, so this price was huge.


    And for Zhou Feng to recover so quickly, the price was definitely very heavy.


    To be honest, A¡¯Rixi was scared by the memories in his bloodline.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Nuke Punch had frightened A¡¯Rixi.


    A¡¯Rixi was afraid of provoking Zhou Feng. The sudden explosion had already left him half-crippled.


    That was a huge loss!


    After all, the Human Emperors, including their successors, were unreasonable. It was better to wait quietly for helpers and finally kill Zhou Feng.


    Although Zhou Feng was also a little puzzled as to why A¡¯Rixi didn¡¯t take the opportunity to attack him, he didn¡¯t think too much and tried to speed up his recovery.


    What was troublesome now was the long spear stuck in his body.


    This long spear seemed to have something special that firmly suppressed his physical body. Once he wanted to remove it, he would feel a wave of danger.


    Although he wouldn¡¯t die, his body would fall into a state of weakness.


    Falling into a state of weakness was equivalent to death in such a situation.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng simply didn¡¯t pull it out and left the spear in his body.


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that something was wrong. A few powerful auras were rushing over from afar.


    Moreover, the originally sunny sky had turned dark at some point in time.


    A few black clouds were approaching from the horizon.


    ¡®So that¡¯s it!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng understood why A¡¯Rixi did not take the opportunity to attack him. It turned out that he had called for help and wanted to ensure Zhou Feng would not survive.


    Originally, Zhou Feng harbored some thoughts of escaping. After all, he did not want to waste the opportunity to be reborn


    yet.


    Unfortunately, it was almost impossible for him to escape under such circumstances.


    If that was the case, he could only give it his all.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s heart completely calmed down. There were no other thoughts in his heart, only the thought of how to fight.


    Ever since he had started cultivating, he had many thoughts in his heart. Every time he fought, he would think of many things.


    There was not a single time where he was completely immersed in the battle.


    There was nothing he could do! He was still a human, and humans tended to have too many things in their minds. He was not a simple-minded martial arts fanatic.


    However, this time, Zhou Feng could throw himself into the battle without any pressure or worry.


    ¡°Oh? It¡¯s really the Human Emperor¡¯s successor?¡±


    ¡°Unfortunately, it¡¯s a little b*stard! He¡¯s not even in the Divine Ability realm!¡±


    ¡°Hmph! If he was in the Divine Ability realm, would we still be able to rush here?¡±


    II


    11


    Just when Zhou Feng had no distracting thoughts in his mind, the Demons that had received A¡¯Rixi arrived one after another.


    Due to the distance, only three Demons arrived.


    However, these three Demons¡¯ auras were obviously stronger than A¡¯Rixi¡¯s, and each of them was radiating with divine light.


    They were completely different from A¡¯Rixi.


    These Demons were equipped with all kinds of spiritual artifacts, and from the looks of it, they had obviously snatched them from the hands of human cultivators.


    There were still a lot of blood stains on them.


    ¡°Stop talking nonsense! Let¡¯s surround and kill this kid together! The Human Emperor blood in his body will be divided among the four of us!¡±


    ¡°If we delay any longer, we will lose a portion if we don¡¯t get our hands on it now.¡±


    For some reason, A¡¯Rixi wanted to kill Zhou Feng as soon as possible. He didn¡¯t want to drag this on. ¡°Alright!¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s kill this kid first!¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s do it!¡±


    Although these Demons usually fought for territory with all kinds of underhanded means, they naturally ignored their differences now that they had to face an outsider.


    Zhou Feng directly welcomed the most desperate moment on the path of cultivation.


    Four genuine fiendish Demons had come to an agreement and surrounded him.


    Moreover, these four fiendish Demons all had the strength to fight against Divine Ability experts.


    One of the fiendish Demons took the lead and pressed forward with his large purple-red hand.


    In an instant, a sea of blood appeared, and the surging power of the fiendish Demon stirred up huge waves and sent them at Zhou Feng.


    The other three Demons released their auras together with this attack.


    This scene was somewhat similar to when Zhou Feng fought against the Demons¡¯ minions.


    He didn¡¯t expect that A¡¯Rixi and the other Demons would still be so cautious despite having such a huge advantage.


    One person attacked, while the other three held the line. They didn¡¯t give Zhou Feng any chance at all.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng opened his eyes. His black hair danced wildly on his head, accompanied by a dragon¡¯s roar. It was as if a divine dragon had split open the sky. He didn¡¯t dodge at all and met the attack head-on.


    ¡®Invincible fist! First Punch: Landslide!¡¯

 Chapter 242 - Third Punch!

    Chapter 242 Third Punch!


    Zhou Feng named the Invincible Fist after himself. The first punch was called Landslide.


    This was because of his comprehension of the Body Tempering realm.


    The pure increase in strength was purely to make his physical body stronger. Breaking a mountain with one punch was his original wish.


    Although the golden Blood Qi was suppressed to only a few inches, Zhou Feng¡¯s burst of power instantly separated the monstrous blood wave.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s white clothes fluttered as his aura rose steadily.


    Such an attitude! Such power!


    It made the Demons feel as if they had seen the Human Emperor of ancient times.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng was not the Human Emperor of the world. Moreover, he was fighting one against four opponents.


    One of the Demons immediately pounced and grabbed at him.


    The surging force made Zhou Feng¡¯s back hurt, and his clothes were immediately torn apart.


    However, Zhou Feng still relied on his Battle Instinct to resist this attack.


    What followed was the continuous attacks of the other Demons.


    The four Demons displayed an amazing tacit understanding at this time.


    One person attacked, and three people held the line.


    One person retreated, and the other person filled in. This cycle repeated, not giving Zhou Feng any chance to catch his breath.


    If not for his passive Tough Skin, Reinforced Iron Bones, and Adaptive Shell, Zhou Feng would have died already.


    What¡¯s worse, the long spear was still stuck in his body, greatly affecting his performance.


    Scarlet blood spurted out.


    Zhou Feng was like a lion, being bitten by a cackle of hyenas.


    ¡®Nuke Punch!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could only use his Nuke Punch under such circumstances.


    Strong wind billowed and the earth shattered as all the energy in the surroundings was swallowed by a strong pulling force.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand broke because the pressure he was under this time was too great. Although the Nuke Punch could swallow all the energy in the surroundings and could be unleashed in one go, he needed to bear the corresponding pressure during this process.


    ¡°It¡¯s this move again! Be careful! Quickly use The League of Saints and Demons!¡±


    As A¡¯Rixi stared at this familiar move, he noticed the Nuke Punch¡¯s power seemed to have doubled.


    Having experienced it once, A¡¯Rixi reacted ultra fast. He immediately gathered the other Demons together.


    The League of Saints and Demons! This was a racial technique that only belonged to the Demons.


    Only two or more Demons could use it.


    Once used, they could share the damage, and their endurance would increase by several times.


    The other Demons were still extremely cooperative during the battle, completely ignoring their usual conflicts.


    The Demons had no concept of race¡ªthis was a lesson of blood and tears.


    Many Demons did not consider other Demons as their kinsfolk.


    If not for the Human Emperors oppressing them, these Demons would probably have not developed an inkling of the concept of race.


    As for cooperation in battle? That was even more impossible.


    The Demons were cunning and sinister.


    They would not trust anyone, yet they cooperated so closely now.


    This was because the damn Human Emperors and their successors had forced them to do so!


    Back then, the Human Emperors¡¯ era had come to an end, and the last living Human Emperor chased after the Demons like a madman.


    If they didn¡¯t help each other, they would have been eliminated long ago.


    A¡¯Rixi and the other three Demons¡¯ blood and flesh were torn apart in an instant, and then they merged into one.


    They formed a peculiar beast, and then a black membrane appeared.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    It was another nuclear-level explosion!


    Zhou Feng comprehended this punch not long ago, yet he already used it three times in a short period.


    It was all thanks to his abnormal passive Tenacious Heart.


    A normal person would have been paralyzed the last time they used that attack. It was impossible for them to be like Zhou Feng, who was using it crazily as if it had nothing to do with it.


    However, it was different from the last time. After Zhou Feng used the Nuke Punch, he instantly took all kinds of talismans out of his storage ring.


    Diamond talismans, primordial light talismans, iron armor talismans, and so on.


    As long as it was a defensive-type talisman, all of them were activated at the same time.


    These could block a little bit, but it was still a little bit. After all, a chance to be reborn was not easy to come by.


    At present, Zhou Feng was truly fully devoted to this battle. His goal was to defeat his opponent.


    A dazzling light lit up the entire sky.


    The dark clouds in the sky were torn apart, and sunlight shone down from far away.


    ¡°We blocked it!¡±


    ¡°Fortunately, A¡¯Rixi warned us quickly!¡±


    The four Demons had used the League of Saints and Demons to defend and withstand the punch. Therefore, the damage was not too great.

    Now that they were split up, the injuries were naturally not too serious.


    This kind of injury could be healed after a little rest.


    From this, everyone should know how terrifying the Demons were¨Cthey could fuse as one and withstand the damage before splitting it among the few of them.


    It was simply miraculous.


    From another point of view, however, this also displayed how terrifying the Human Emperors and their successor had been back then. They had almost exterminated the Demons!


    ¡®One last punch!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was completely paralyzed, his limbs twisted. The clothes on his body had disappeared and were replaced by charred skin.


    However, there was not a hint of despair on Zhou Feng¡¯s face. On the contrary, his eyes were still bright.


    If one were to look at Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, it would be as if the Human Emperor had descended to the world, looking down on the earth and looking down on all living beings.


    He had not lost yet!


    He still had the third punch!


    If the first punch was his comprehension of Blood Qi and raw power, the second the comprehension of devouring, then the third one would be his comprehension of the soul.


    This third punch represented Zhou Feng¡¯s comprehension of the Soul Altar realm.


    The only thing he had been focusing on in the Soul Altar realm was to think of ways to improve his soul power and forge a Soul Altar.


    Therefore, this third punch was the Soul Punch, an invisible punch. He did not need his physical body to launch this punch. As long as he had enough soul power, he could pull it off.


    And how strong was Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power now?


    Even he did not know this.


    Anyway, by relying on the passive Soul Harvesting, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul had been strengthened.


    His control over his physical body was a testament to how strong his soul was.


    Generally speaking, the stronger the physical body, the stronger the soul.


    If the soul was not strong enough, and the physical body was too strong, there would be a situation where one¡¯s control would be insufficient.


    In any case, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical strength had been rising rapidly, but there had never been a situation where he could not control his physical body.


    ¡°Haha! Leave the matter of killing the future Human Emperor to me!¡±


    One of the Demons appeared in front of Zhou Feng like a ghost.


    It was obvious that this Demon had concealed its strength in the battle just now.


    Zhou Feng felt the stench of the Demon¡¯s breath in the blink of an eye.

 Chapter 243 - Leng Maner?

    Chapter 243 Leng Maner?


    At that moment, A¡¯Rixi and the other Demons were all quite excited.


    Killing a Human Emperor successor was a matter worthy of praise.


    In their bloodline memories, the Human Emperors and their successors were opponents that were difficult to kill.


    It would require several times the manpower to kill such an opponent. Now that they were able to kill Zhou Feng without sustaining any injuries, did this mean that the Demon race could finally stop hiding?


    In fact, they were already considering ripping off Zhou Feng¡¯s skull to make a wine cup.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Although his body couldn¡¯t move, Zhou Feng glared at the Demon like an angry Asura.


    A huge amount of soul power condensed into a point, and the surrounding void seemed to collapse at that moment.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    This Demon¡¯s face suddenly revealed a terrified expression. The scales on his body were completely useless.


    His entire body was frozen due to Zhou Feng¡¯s soul attack.


    From the perspective of others, this Demon only suddenly revealed a terrified expression.


    Then, a gentle breeze blew past, and that enormous body directly fell to the ground. His enormous vitality seemed to have been plundered away, quickly dissipating.


    ¡°Dead¡­ Dead?¡±


    ¡°How is this possible! Dead?¡±


    II


    11


    A¡¯Rixi and the other Demons were all suppressed. This was a Demon King that had once roamed an entire region.


    Although his current cultivation level had already fallen to the Purple Mansion realm, his strength was enough to fight against a Divine Ability expert.


    If he had to drag it out, he could even stall some top-tier Divine Ability experts.


    But now, he had died without any reason? So easily?


    A gentle breeze had blown past, and then his entire body fell down. His terrifying body could not withstand this!?


    After using the Soul Fist to kill that Demon, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura grew even stronger, and his eyes seemed to radiate an endless divine light.


    The long hair that fell down kept fluttering in the wind, and that mysterious aura gave off a supreme vibe.


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s bloodline memories were triggered again.


    They were from an ancestor of an unknown generation.


    Taking advantage of the fall of the last Human Emperor, he led the Demons to besiege that Human Emperor¡¯s tribe.


    He also paid a price to make those mighty human experts not make a move.


    Originally, they wanted to take this opportunity to completely destroy the Human Emperor legacy and exterminate the Human Emperor¡¯s kin.


    Unexpectedly, the true nightmare began that day.


    In the beginning, everything was smooth sailing for the Demons.


    The Human Emperor¡¯s tribe had fallen into a state of weakness due to the emperor¡¯s fall, while the mighty human experts all watched coldly from the side, sending the tribe into a deeper pit of despair.


    However, these actions led to the Demons¡¯ worst nightmare.


    Other than the warriors, the Human Emperor¡¯s tribe chose to commit suicide and fuse their Human Emperor bloodline into the warriors¡¯ bodies.


    This was an evil technique!


    It was an evil technique that was used to plunder bloodlines. Previously, the tribesmen would have absolutely disdained to use it.


    However, they had no such scruples anymore.


    As such, the remaining 18 warriors obtained the Human Emperor bloodline, and it was close to perfection.


    They created 18 quasi-Human Emperors and killed the entire Demon army. They even killed the noble families and sects of the human race.


    According to A¡¯Rixi¡¯s bloodline memory, the most miserable party was the Buddhist sect that had converted the Demons.


    The quasi-Human Emperors killed the bald donkeys, and the Buddhist temple was exterminated.


    In the end, they had no choice but to kill all the converted Demons to appease the anger of the tribe.


    In the past, when the Human Emperors were around, their respective tribes, clans, sect, and so on, would naturally not attack other humans.


    However, since a genuine Human Emperor was no longer around, and the entire tribe had sacrificed themselves, these quasi-Human Emperor all became lunatics.


    In the end, the other mighty human experts could no longer turn a blind eye, and they started killing Demons until they disappeared without a trace.


    After all, no one wanted to go against these powerful quasi-Human Emperors who had nothing to lose and fight to the death.


    The remaining quasi-Human Emperors then returned to the Human Emperor Tomb for their final rest.


    It could be said that that period of history was a nightmare for the Demons.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura, coupled with the attitude of an undying Demon, awakened the inherited fear in A¡¯Rixi¡¯s blood.


    ¡®I can¡¯t take it anymore!¡¯


    This third punch caused Zhou Feng to feel a wave of dizziness.


    Although this punch didn¡¯t have any fancy special effects, the backlash was the most severe.


    This punch used soul power as fuel, and it caused Zhou Feng¡¯s nascent soul to become illusory.


    Moreover, his weak nascent soul was unable to control his physical body, and even his recovery speed decreased by a lot.


    What¡¯s worse, the passive Tenacious Heart was ineffective when it came to soul injuries as they were not within the passive skill¡¯s recovery range. This was also why he had not used this third punch before. This was truly a trump card.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face did not have the slightest expression of fear now. On the contrary, he was eerily calm, not afraid of death at all.


    In any case, he would be reborn. Even though he would be reborn, wasting a chance in such a place, it was not a loss.


    After killing this pure Demon, the Human Emperor Ring on his hand was triggered.


    A burning sensation spread from his fingers to Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    The unique aura of the Demon race was instantly devoured by the Human Emperor Ring.


    At that moment, the Human Emperor Ring seemed to have been burned red. The terrifying feedback made Zhou Feng¡¯s weak soul jolt.


    As for the Human Emperor Ring falling into the hands of the Demons after being killed, he was not worried about that.


    That was because the Human Emperor Ring had already recognized its master and was bound to his soul.


    Once his soul left, the Human Emperor Ring would instantly disappear and follow his soul.


    It was worth it!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fearless expression horrified the remaining three Demons.


    This expression was identical to the one the quasi-Human Emperors had in the bloodline memories.


    Not afraid of death! Even hoping that you could approach to kill him was just seeking death.


    Also, the Human Emperors and their successors would always drag down with them a few of their opponents.


    A¡¯Rixi and the other Demons were actually stunned for a moment because they were afraid, afraid that Zhou Feng would drag them down with him before he died.


    It was like the Demon that had just died. It disappeared without a sound. It was too terrifying


    Just as A¡¯Rixi was hesitating whether he should go up and finish the job, a cold feeling emerged.


    A white shadow appeared.


    Leng Maner had appeared here at some point in time. Her eyes were like autumn water, and she was expressionless.


    Her slender hand grabbed Zhou Feng.


    At that moment, he clung tightly to Leng Maner¡¯s graceful figure. Her skin was snow-white and clear, and her eyebrows exuded a cold and elegant air. Her plain clothes enhanced her graceful body¡¯s beauty.


    ¡®Leng Maner?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was surprised.


    How had Leng Maner appeared here? And she even saved him? Could it be that Leng Maner had never left this area?


    Being able to hide under the eyes of so many Demons was a little impressive!


    The only question was whether Leng Maner would be able to escape with him.


    If he could escape, it would be the best-case scenario. This would save him a chance to be reborn.


    But if he couldn¡¯t escape, Leng Maner wouldn¡¯t have a chance to be reborn.

 Chapter 244 - Looking at Each Other

    Chapter 244 Looking at Each Other


    ¡°Hurry up and chase them!¡±


    After being stunned for a moment, A¡¯Rixi immediately reacted.


    They absolutely could not allow Zhou Feng to escape. This child was definitely a huge hidden danger.


    If this child escaped, they would not have an easy time in the future.


    What surprised A¡¯Rixi the most was that another human had been there all along, yet they had not detected her.


    This was the most terrifying point.


    Leng Maner had been lurking around and suddenly rescued Zhou Feng.


    No! The two of them should be in cahoots!


    Regret spread in A¡¯Rixi¡¯s heart.


    They had allowed their fear to overtake them. A mere human¡¯s aura suppressed them, and they didn¡¯t dare to make a move.


    This was the mother of all humiliations.


    This was clearly the best opportunity-a chance to kill the future Human Emperor in the cradle.


    However, they missed it!


    Although A¡¯Rixi¡¯s reaction was fast, he was still one step too slow.


    Leng Maner was like a fairy who had descended from the nine heavens. Her plain clothes fluttered in the wind, her figure elegant and clear.


    At first glance, she was still here, but she was already at the horizon at second glance.


    Leng Maner¡¯s movements seemed slow, but she was astoundingly fast.


    The most exaggerated thing was that her clear and cold aura gradually weakened.


    This meant that once Leng Maner disappeared from sight, it would be very difficult for A¡¯Rixi to find them.


    ¡®How fragrant!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little muddle-headed due to his weak soul and only smelled something fragrant at that moment.


    This was Leng Maner¡¯s body fragrance, a plain and subtle fragrance.


    It gave people a calm and stable feeling, causing Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body to relax and fall into a deep sleep. Before falling into a deep sleep, he recalled Li Rong¡¯s body fragrance.


    Leng Maner exuded a light and elegant fragrance, while Li Rong¡¯s fragrance was filled with youthful vitality.


    Li Rong was like the sun, while Leng Maner¡¯s was like the moon.


    After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Feng finally woke up from his slumber.


    ¡°I¡¯m¡­¡±


    After waking up, he found himself in a dark space. In front of him was a back view. Under the dim light, that back view gave others an absolutely beautiful feeling.


    After sensing that Zhou Feng had woken up, Leng Maner did not turn around and only said coldly, ¡°You¡¯re awake? I didn¡¯t expect your injuries to recover so fast. And your cultivation level has increased so quickly.¡± The cold voice gave Zhou Feng a sense of familiarity.


    eco


    To be honest, Leng Maner was astonished.


    She had never imagined that the person fighting against the fiendish Demons was actually Zhou Feng.


    Moreover, she couldn¡¯t fathom what he may have experienced to reach this level in such a short time.


    Not only had he broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, but his battle prowess was also heaven-defying.


    He had managed to kill one of the four fiendish Demons!


    The most ridiculous point was that Leng Maner intended to treat Zhou Feng just now. After all, his injuries seemed to be too serious. Even if he had a panacea, he would need to lie down for a few days before he could barely recover.


    Unexpectedly, Leng Maner witnessed a jaw-dropping scene.


    The moment Zhou Feng stopped fighting, his injuries began to heal. His twisted limbs even twisted back to the correct position.


    Other than feeding Zhou Feng a few medicinal pills to replenish his vitality, Leng Maner had not helped at all.


    She had noticed that Zhou Feng needed a large amount of vitality to recover from his injuries.


    Leng Maner recalled her experiences during this period. Even though her dao heart was as hard as steel, she could not help but feel a little defeated when she compared herself with Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng had been wet behind the ears cultivation-wise in Leng Maner¡¯s eyes.


    Unexpectedly, this novice cultivator had matured and had already far surpassed her. This kind of frustration made Leng Maner somewhat dispirited.


    Zhou Feng suddenly didn¡¯t know what to say, facing Leng Maner¡¯s back view. In the end, he could only ask a few questions in return.


    ¡°Where is this place? Why are you here? Didn¡¯t you leave the Tri-Gu Sect?¡±


    He was rather interested in what Leng Maner had experienced.


    Leng Maner could be considered a friend of his. After all, Leng Maner had been of some help to him back in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Even though Leng Maner had other motives back then, she saved his life this time.


    Based on this point alone, Zhou Feng already regarded Leng Maner as a friend.


    ¡°This is the original sect¡¯s base,¡± Leng Maner gave a simple answer to his question.


    It turned out that their current location was the original Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s base.


    This was a secret room the Tri-Gu Sect Leader had created.


    Apart from the Sect Leader, only Leng Maner knew about it.


    As for the Sect Leader¡¯s faction, it was long gone. All that was left were the Demons¡¯ minions.


    Both parties fell into silence.


    They were kind of familiar with each other, their personalities were quite similar, and they did not like to chat.


    Thus, they ended up staying there awkwardly.


    ¡°What about you? Why are you here?¡±


    Fortunately, Leng Maner was the first to break the awkward silence.


    Leng Maner was still a little curious as to why Zhou Feng would appear here.


    Zhou Feng had left the sect without permission back then. He should have long left this place. Why would he suddenly come here and even fight with four Demons?


    Zhou Feng gave a straightforward answer, ¡°Me? I¡¯m training myself. But I didn¡¯t expect that Demon to have helpers!¡±


    To be honest, he didn¡¯t expect A¡¯Rixi to be such a tough nut to crack.


    He originally wanted to fight one-on-one with A¡¯Rixi to temper his body. However, when A¡¯Rixi¡¯s reinforcement arrived, Zhou Feng had no choice but to risk his life.


    ¡°Oh, right, can you turn around and talk to me?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s usual demeanor returned as he spoke.


    Leng Maner was stunned upon hearing this. Still, she turned around and looked at Zhou Feng


    Leng Maner¡¯s appearance mesmerized Zhou


    Feng


    Her exquisite nose and cherry lips seemed to be the heavens¡¯ masterpiece, and she exuded a unique coldness.


    She really suited Zhou Feng¡¯s aesthetic standards.


    The current Leng Maner had also broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    It was unknown what kind of fortuitous encounter she had, but there was a lily mark between her brows.


    This mark emanated a powerful aura, and Zhou Feng could tell Leng Maner had managed to bring him away and escape the Demons¡¯ pursuit because of it.


    As for Leng Maner, the current Zhou Feng had changed even more.


    While Zhou Feng had been unconscious, she could not feel his changes.


    Now that he was awake, he was in high spirits, unlike back in the Tri-Gu Sect, where he was always restless.


    He also looked sharper, like an emperor looking down on everything in the world.


    The two looked at each other, but they did not look embarrassed.


    Zhou Feng looked at Leng Maner in a daze, while Leng Maner was unwilling to be outdone, and she looked straight at Zhou Feng.


    The two fell into silence once again, their eyes staring at each other.

 Chapter 245 - Ice Spirit Gu

    Chapter 245 Ice Spirit Gu


    ¡°What do you want to do next?¡±


    After a long moment of silence, Leng Maner could not stand this staring contest any longer. It was not a good idea for the two to keep staring at each other.


    ¡°Next? I want to continue training!¡±


    Zhou Feng planned to continue training here for some time regarding what he should do next.


    Thanks to Leng Maner, his chance to get reborn was not wasted. Under such circumstances, he would naturally continue to be reckless.


    Killing a Demon had greatly increased his strength. He could feel that his physical body had reached a limit compared to before.


    If he continued to improve, he would break through to the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    He had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, and he was about to break through again. This speed was a little astonishing


    Zhou Feng had no reason to leave this place. In addition, his original goal was to leave Heavenly Sky City and lay low for a while.


    Not much time had passed, so he couldn¡¯t leave this place so quickly.


    ¡°Continue training?¡±


    Leng Maner gave Zhou Feng a deep look. When she saw the fearless expression on his face¡­ she verified that Zhou Feng was a true madman.


    He had almost died here, yet he still wanted to continue training in such a place?


    If he wasn¡¯t a lunatic, then what was he?


    Moreover, from Zhou Feng¡¯s tone, he still wanted to find trouble with the Demons.


    Leng Maner¡¯s expression did not change as she calmly asked, ¡°Can you count me in?¡±


    ¡°You?¡± Zhou Feng was slightly surprised. He did not expect Leng Maner to actually want to hunt the Demons with him.


    If he had a helper¡­


    Zhou Feng was a little hesitant because Leng Maner was different from him.


    Zhou Feng could revive, but Leng Maner could not. Zhou Feng could put himself in danger and fight like a madman with no fear for his life, but Leng Maner could not.


    If the two of them joined forces, it would be like plotting against Leng Maner.


    Zhou Feng would never do such a thing to a benefactor who had just saved him.


    ¡°Why? Is there a problem?¡±


    Leng Maner noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s hesitant expression, and her cold aura spread out instantly.


    Zhou Feng was clearly looking down on her.


    Zhou Feng nodded solemnly and voiced out his thoughts. ¡°Yes! Firstly, if we act together, I¡¯m afraid that you¡¯ll drag me down! I¡¯ll be distracted!


    ¡°Secondly! My Way of training is a little strange. I don¡¯t want you to get hurt because of me!¡±


    If the two of them joined forces, Zhou Feng would definitely not allow her to die.


    Also, due to his fighting style, it would be easy for Leng Maner to misunderstand the situation and give her the impression that he would die. Thus, she might try to save him, getting injured in the process.


    Since the two of them were not familiar with each other yet, he did not want to join forces with Leng Maner.


    This was not a good thing for him or Leng Maner.


    ¡°You don¡¯t need to worry about my safety. You just need to take care of yourself!¡± Leng Maner said coldly. Obviously, she did not need to take care of him, and she could even take care of herself when necessary.


    Leng Maner was still very confident in her life-saving methods. Otherwise, she would not have been able to live so comfortably under so many Demons¡¯ noses.


    She also had the life-saving items the Tri-Gu Sect Leader had left for her.


    ¡°No! We are not familiar enough. You just saved me, so I can not let you die. It is too troublesome for the two of us to act together!¡±


    Zhou Feng directly rejected her.


    Compared to forming a team, he liked being solo more.


    Although Leng Maner ticked the boxes of his aesthetic standards, this was a matter of life and death. He would not compromise on such a matter.


    Leng Maner never expected that Zhou Feng would reject her so decisively. He did not even give her any leeway!


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    Leng Maner gnashed her teeth. She wanted to ask Zhou Feng to get lost but suppressed the urge. She was alone, so she couldn¡¯t take revenge.


    However, if she and Zhou Feng cooperated, the impossible would become possible.


    Moreover, Leng Maner had to retrieve something. If she did not retrieve it, then her future path of cultivation would be bumpier.


    Looking at Leng Maner, who was so angry she could not speak, Zhou Feng felt there was something different about her. Revealing such an expression was not easy for Leng Maner, who always kept a straight face.


    Soon, Leng Maner buried those useless emotions, and her cold, unapproachable goddess demeanor returned.


    ¡°If you help me retrieve something from the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s secret treasury, then the items inside will be yours!¡±


    Leng Maner calmly tried to negotiate with Zhou Feng


    Zhou Feng was no longer a Tri-Gu disciple. It was impossible to ask him to help her like before.


    Thus, Leng Maner adapted quickly, using benefits as a condition.


    The Tri-Gu Sect used to be the only large sect in this area. Apart from the public treasury, there were also many secret treasuries.


    Each Sect Leader would build these secret treasuries and store resources to rebuild the sect in case it was destroyed.


    The Leng family had discovered the Demons were pulling the sect¡¯s strings early on, so almost every generation was working hard to get rid of the Demons.


    But only a few people in each generation knew this secret.


    In this generation, only Leng Maner knew the secret of the Demon race.


    It was also by relying on this information that Leng Maner had managed to escape from the pursuit of many Demons.


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. ¡°A secret treasury?¡±


    Zhou Feng would have been a little interested in the sect¡¯s secret treasury if it were in the past.


    Unfortunately, that was not the case now as he did not have much need for cultivation resources and Spirit Stones.


    He only needed the Human Emperor Ring and to kill Demons to increase his cultivation. He did not need to take any risks for a so-called secret treasury.


    If it had the follow-up cultivation method of the Human Emperor Scripture, then he would be interested.


    Just this little condition would not convince him.


    ¡°I have crucial information on those Demons and their hiding places!¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s lack of interest, Leng Maner stated another condition.


    ¡®Specific information on the Demons? And their hiding places?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s interest was piqued upon hearing this.


    If he had information on the Demons, it would not be impossible to attack them when they were alone.


    ¡°Tell me in detail!¡±


    ¡°The Demon in charge of this area is called A¡¯Rixi. It was also the one who personally killed the Sect Leader,¡± Leng Maner said emotionlessly.


    Not only did she know the name of this Demon, but she even knew how many subordinates A¡¯Rixi had and where they were located.


    Zhou Feng looked at Leng Maner in surprise. He did not expect Leng Maner to have such detailed information.


    Moreover, wasn¡¯t the previous Sect Leader Leng Maner¡¯s father? Why did she keep calling him Sect Leader?


    ¡°A¡¯Rixi, this Demon can control people and Gu!¡±


    As Leng Maner spoke, a caterpillar that resembled an ice crystal appeared in her hand, emanating chilly power.


    In the next second, rustling sounds came from their surroundings.

 Chapter 246 - Myriad Spirit Gu

    Chapter 246 Myriad Spirit Gu


    ¡°This is the Ice Spirit Gu. Other than that, I have a Divine Ability technique, and I can use it with the help of the Ice Spirit Gu.¡±


    Leng Maner began to display her strength and revealed some of her secrets.


    Cold Moon Shadow Steps!


    This was a Divine Ability technique that Leng Maner had mastered.


    The Purple Mansion Leng Maner could barely use it with the help of the Ice Spirit Gu in her body.


    This footwork was extremely fast and could conceal all of her aura.


    Unless a Divine Ability expert were able to lock onto her with their soul, no Purple Mansion expert would be able to catch up to Leng Maner. Leng Maner¡¯s footwork was a technique that allowed her to cross realms, and it consumed a lot of energy, so she could not use it for long.


    Apart from that, Leng Maner still had countless Gus backing her up.


    It could be said that when the Tri-Gu Sect was invaded, Leng Maner inherited the foundation of a sect by herself.


    The most important spiritual artifacts of the Tri-Gu Sect were now in her hands.


    Take the 10,000 Gu Goblet, for example. This was a special spiritual artifact that could hold thousands of Gus and automatically feed the Gus inside.


    As long as one had enough resources, it would be enough. This was equivalent to a fully automatic feeding machine and a breeding farm for Gus.


    The rustling sounds around were part of the Gus that Leng Maner had released.


    ¡®So powerful?¡¯


    Zhou Feng sucked in a breath of cold air in his heart. As expected, the foundation of a sect could not be underestimated.


    This was Leng Maner displaying her strength. She could see that Zhou Feng was a person with principles. If she did not display some of her strength, it would be almost impossible for them to cooperate.


    If she wanted Zhou Feng to cooperate, she could only be frank and open.


    Both of them had to be sincere.


    Leng Maner did not want to drag this on, as the longer this dragged on, the more dangerous this place would be.


    The Tri-Gu Sect, her relatives, and her family were gone. After severing this last thread of connection, she could truly tread on her path of cultivation.


    Due to the various reasons above and Zhou Feng¡¯s mental impact, Leng Maner had decided to take some risks and expose some of her secrets.


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and finally asked, ¡°Then what exactly are you going to


    take?¡±


    Actually, he was also a little afraid that Leng Maner would backstab him, so he had to clear some things.


    He admired Leng Maner¡¯s appearance and figure, but he was not a person who was obsessed with her. He would not casually agree to something.


    Leng Maner stared at Zhou Feng and hesitated for a moment. ¡°Myriad Spirit Gu, the sect treasure of the Tri-Gu Sect! It has now become a part of A¡¯Rixi¡¯s collection!¡±


    The item she wanted to get back was the sect treasure of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    The Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s development had started a long time ago, and they had gone far in the path of Gus.


    In addition to the abundant resources in the Southern Border, it was very compatible with the path of Gus.


    Also, in order to get rid of the Demons behind them, the past Tri-Gu Sect Leaders had nurtured an unprecedented Gu¡ªthe Myriad Spirit Gu!


    The Myriad Spirit Gu was created by having countless Gus fight each other. It was the Gu King of the Gu Kings.


    Just its aura alone could command thousands of Gus. It could even simulate different Gus to increase the host¡¯s cultivation.


    The extinct Dragonblood Gu was such an example. The Myriad Spirit Gu could be simulated by the residue of the Dragonblood Gu and could use the Dragonblood Gu¡¯s abilities. Although the final effect might not be as good as the original version, it had at least 80% of the effect.


    Most of the time, the Myriad Spirit Gu would be nurtured in the Gu Pool, and it had only recently completed its ninth transformation. It had the potential to advance to the Divine Ability realm!


    But who knew that A¡¯Rixi would suddenly make a move?


    One had to know that it was very troublesome to move this Myriad Spirit Gu while being nurtured.


    In the end, the Myriad Spirit Gu became a part of A¡¯Rixi¡¯s collection.


    Leng Maner wanted to take back the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    As long as she took it back, breaking through to the Divine Ability realm would be a piece of cake.


    This Myriad Spirit Gu was the crystallization of more than ten generations of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    It was their only hope to nurture a Divine Ability expert, to get rid of the shackles of the Demons behind them, and to establish a sect truly.


    From then on, the Gu system would flourish in the Southern Border.


    ¡°Right! This Myriad Spirit Gu has a bloodline lock. If one doesn¡¯t have the Leng bloodline¡­¡±


    As she spoke, Leng Maner warned Zhou Feng without hiding anything.


    Every time the Myriad Spirit Gu was nurtured, it would feed on the Leng family¡¯s pure bloodline. Thus, if outsiders wanted to get their hands on it, the Myriad Spirit Gu would suck them dry in the end.


    Even so, if the news of the Myriad Spirit Gu were to leak out, it would still attract countless wild bees and butterflies. After all, the words ¡®Divine Ability realm¡¯ were too attractive.


    Although there were bloodline restrictions, what if?


    If one could tame the Myriad Spirit Gu, then they would be the next Divine Ability expert.


    Leng Maner had already taken a huge risk by revealing the information of the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Leng Maner could only kill Zhou Feng if he had any ill intentions.


    The Sect Leader had left a hidden mechanism in this secret room.


    Adding on the fact that Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was injured, it was not impossible to kill Zhou Feng


    ¡°There is actually such a Gu? It can directly enter the Divine Ability realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng was also shocked. It had never crossed his mind that the sect had researched the Gu system to such an extent.


    One could advance to the Divine Ability realm with the help of a Gu. And from the looks of it, they did not need to consider any aptitude or talent.


    They only needed the Leng bloodline to be able to inherit this Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Seeing that Leng Maner had already opened up to such an extent, it would not make sense if he still did not agree.


    Moreover, the information on the Demons in Leng Maner¡¯s hands was very important to Zhou Feng


    The few Demons that had surrounded him previously could not escape.


    ¡°Alright, I agree. I cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture, and my innate divine ability has to do with recovery. After I leave the battle, I can quickly recover from any injuries.¡±


    Zhou Feng agreed to Leng Maner¡¯s request for cooperation. He also took the initiative to tell Leng Maner some information about himself.


    Of course, to be on the safe side, a lot of what he said was half true and half false. Compared to Leng Maner¡¯s secret, his secret was even more terrifying.


    The existence of the skill panel could never be revealed. Zhou Feng even hid his real innate ability.


    Longevity was a sensitive matter. He was more afraid of those old monsters with one foot in the grave.


    What if an old monster with one foot in the grave learned of his Longevity and turned him into a human medicine? That would really be a huge loss.


    ¡°The Human Emperor Scripture? Can any injury be healed?¡±


    Leng Maner did not know much about the Human Emperor Scripture. Instead, she was shocked by the innate ability that Zhou Feng had mentioned.


    No wonder Zhou Feng fought so crazily, exchanging injuries for injuries. It turned out that he had such an innate ability.


    After both sides revealed their cultivation secrets, their estrangement instantly disappeared.


    The two people¡¯s expressions also became much more relaxed.


    Finally, the previous feeling of mutual vigilance was gone.

 Chapter 247 - Two Chances?

    Chapter 247 Two Chances?


    The openness of both sides was the basis of Zhou Feng and Leng Maner¡¯s cooperation.


    However, the two of them only revealed a part of their secrets, not exposing more crucial trump cards.


    This was enough, though.


    ¡°I need to recover from my injuries!¡±


    After Zhou Feng discussed the specific conditions of the cooperation, he informed her he needed some time to recuperate.


    His nascent soul was weakened, which had a great impact on his strength. This kind of injury was not something the passive Tenacious Heart could heal, so he could only slowly recover over time.


    ¡°This is a Soul Gu, and it can heal nascent soul injuries!¡±


    After hesitating for a while, Leng Maner took out a lime-colored Gu.


    In order to save time, Leng Maner took out one of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s treasures, the Soul Gu. This was a special Gu, and nurturing was troublesome as one constantly needed to feed it with souls.


    Only the ancestors of the Tri-Gu Sect could nurture it, and they considered it one of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s signature Gus.


    Crushing and swallowing this Gu could effectively heal soul injuries, as well as increase the nascent soul¡¯s strength. There were no side effects.


    Not mentioning anything else, just the lack of side effects already made it a top-grade treasure.


    If it were not for the sake of obtaining the Myriad Spirit Gu as soon as possible, Leng Maner would not have taken out this precious


    Gu.


    Leng Maner did not want to drag this on as the Myriad Spirit Gu was her key to the Divine Ability realm. It was better to obtain it as soon as possible!


    ¡°Soul Gu?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the Soul Gu in Leng Maner¡¯s hand and raised his brows.


    As expected of inheriting more than half of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s treasures. There was actually such a strange item.


    Moreover, how many strange Gus had the Tri-Gu Sect nurtured over the years?


    The deeper one delved into the Gu system, the more fascinating and peculiar things they¡¯d find.


    Zhou Feng did not stand on ceremony. He took the Soul Gu and prepared to heal his injuries.


    Leng Maner did not intend to stay there, so she left this secret room.


    When the Sacred Leader had built this place, he had considered that he would live for a long time. Thus, this place was spacious and had many rooms.


    Leng Maner went to another room to prepare.


    After Leng Maner left, Zhou Feng could finally take some time to look at his harvest.


    ¡°Soul collection successful!¡±


    ¡°Hunting successful!¡±


    First, he looked at the skill panel. His passive Soul Harvesting and Master Hunter had simultaneously been triggered earlier, but he hadn¡¯t opened the notifications.


    Moreover, the passive Soul Harvesting¡¯s notification was somewhat different this time.


    ¡®Soul Collection? Could it be because the Demon¡¯s soul was strong enough?¡¯


    Unexpectedly, more than half of Zhou Feng¡¯s nascent had recovered due to the Demon¡¯s soul.


    After using Soul Punch, Zhou Feng¡¯s nascent soul had turned illusory, as if it was about to dissipate.


    His nascent soul was now so stable because he had collected the Demon¡¯s soul, which then turned into a torrent of soul power that replenished Zhou Feng¡¯s soul. If not for that, he would still be unconscious.


    Healing Zhou Feng¡¯s soul injury should not be a problem with Leng Maner¡¯s Soul Gu in hand.


    ¡°Why is there no movement from the Human Emperor Ring?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the Human Emperor Ring. Why was there no movement from the Human Emperor Ring?


    He remembered that when he had killed that Demon, the Human Emperor Ring on his finger had been very hot.


    The Demon¡¯s aura had instantly been sucked clean.


    Why hadn¡¯t he gotten any feedback?


    His body didn¡¯t seem to have been strengthened either!


    Zhou Feng finally realized why he hadn¡¯t gotten any feedback when he looked at his skill panel.


    The progress bar was full!


    And for the first time, it showed that he could draw two passive skills!


    Zhou Feng rubbed his eyes at once, wondering if he was seeing things.


    He was not seeing things, however. He was really not seeing things!


    The Human Emperor Ring was supposed to store the demonic aura, turn it into energy, and strengthen Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    However, at some point in time, the skill panel plundered the ring¡¯s stored energy.


    As a result, the energy went into the progress bar; ergo, he was now able to draw two passive skills.


    The Human Emperor Ring was no match for the skill panel.


    Zhou Feng was naturally satisfied with this outcome. He trusted the skill panel more than the so-called Human Emperor inheritance.


    One more passive skill was equivalent to one more innate ability, after all.


    ¡°Draw! Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng could not wait to start drawing passive skills. As long as he was lucky, he should be able to draw something useful. He could draw twice this time.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    It was that familiar scene again.


    Soon, a new passive skill appeared in front of him.


    ¡°Extraction successful!¡±


    Purification of Heaven and Earth: Every other day, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi will help you purify a negative state on your body.


    Negative states include Poison, Imprints, Karmic Seal¡­


    ¡°Purification of Heaven and Earth?¡±


    Zhou Feng read this passive skill¡¯s description.


    ¡®Not bad! This is a good support-type passive skill!¡¯


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation increased, he would have many more tricks up his sleeve. This support-type passive skill was exceptionally useful.


    Zhou Feng was rather satisfied. It was better than obtaining something completely useless. Just as he was thinking this, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi suddenly gathered and encased his body.


    Soon, a mass of pure black gas was dispersed.


    This sudden change astonished Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This is¡­ triggering the Purification of Heaven and Earth? There¡¯s something dirty on my body?¡± After a long while, he finally reacted.


    He had just obtained the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth, so he didn¡¯t expect it to be triggered right away.


    In other words, there was something dirty on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    However, he hadn¡¯t noticed it.


    Fortunately, he had the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth. Otherwise, he probably wouldn¡¯t even know that he was being plotted against.


    That¡¯s right! That mass of black gas was actually the karmic seal released by the Demon race before they died.


    This was also the Demons¡¯ innate divine ability. As long as one was born, they would have it.


    No matter what means one used to kill a Demon, they would be marked.


    Also, the karmic seals would be stacked the more Demons one killed.


    In the end, it would even cause those old Demons to come out of seclusion, lock on you, and hunt you down no matter where you tried to hide.


    This was also the reason the Demons couldn¡¯t be wiped out.


    Most factions had been unwilling to use their full strength because the Demons could easily launch an all-out counterattack toward the end of the previous war. Those factions would waste their power and let their enemies reap the benefits.


    At that time, the human race had not been united. Every major force had many enemies.


    Therefore, no one wanted to waste their strength for nothing. In any case, the Demon race was no longer a force to be reckoned with.


    It was better to let these Demons hide in a corner and struggle for their lives!


    As for dispelling this karmic seal, it was a troublesome matter.


    It was naturally not a problem for an almighty cultivator, but such cultivators did not have so much time to waste.


    In the end, for all kinds of reasons, they stopped hunting down Demons.

 Chapter 248 - Unparalleled Infiltration

    Chapter 248 Unparalleled Infiltration


    Originally, Zhou Feng also had this karmic seal on his body, but the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth dispelled it. ¡°Is this one of the Demons¡¯ innate abilities?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was silent for a moment, feeling that he should be more careful.


    Fortunately,if someone wanted to plot against him in the future, the price would probably be very high due to the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth.


    Wasn¡¯t his daily purification equivalent to having a chance to check himself every day?


    From the looks of it, this passive skill was more valuable than he had imagined.


    ¡°Continue!¡±


    This could be considered a good start!


    Zhou Feng had one more chance to draw, so he didn¡¯t waste any time.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    The drawing time was very short, and a new passive appeared in the next second.


    Gale Steps: Increase your speed by 5%.


    The new passive skill¡¯s description was only a short sentence.


    ¡°Gale Steps¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little disappointed when he saw his new passive skill.


    Compared to the previous powerful passive skills, this one was too plain. Nonetheless, it directly increased his speed by 5%. Although it wasn¡¯t considered powerful, it was still useful.


    The most important point was the percentage increase. It could be considered a real increase, and there weren¡¯t so many fancy tricks.


    Instantly, Zhou Feng felt a gale surrounding his body, and his body felt much lighter.


    The 5% improvement was evident.


    ¡°Not bad! It¡¯s a real improvement!¡±


    Zhou Feng was quite satisfied with the two passive skills he had obtained. After all, it was already good enough that there was an improvement.


    However, what excited him the most was that he seemed to have found a way to obtain passive skills¡ªkilling Demons steadily!


    The Human Emperor Ring would extract the Demon¡¯s aura and convert it to pure energy, and the skill panel would then absorb the pure energy and channel it to the progress bar.


    Didn¡¯t this mean he could obtain a passive skill or more as long as he killed a Demon?


    Spirit Stones were hard to find, but there were Demons everywhere in this area!


    ¡°A Demon is equivalent to a passive skill! This deal is worth it!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed with a burning passion.


    One had to know that he had earned a powerful support-type passive skill and a permanent bonus this time.


    Compared to the risk of killing a Demon, the benefits were too great. Not to mention that he still had a chance to be reborn and could continue to be reckless. At worst, he could start all over again.


    Zhou Feng could not sit still upon thinking of this. He had to kill a few more Demons before they could react.


    Otherwise, once these Demons gathered together, killing them would be much more troublesome. It was best to find the nest of these Demons tonight, launch a surprise attack, and catch them off guard.


    ¡°Let¡¯s heal my soul injury first.¡±


    Zhou Feng crushed the Soul Gu in his hand and swallowed it.


    Naturally, he had checked if there was anything wrong with the Soul Gu before swallowing it. As long as there was something wrong with the Soul Gu, Zhou Feng¡¯s body instinct would warn him.


    This was an ability brought about by his terrifying perception.


    His body instinct did not have any reaction, so Zhou Feng swallowed it without worry.


    The crushed Soul Gu instantly turned into a cool stream, and he felt like small hands were massaging his nascent soul. Zhou Feng¡¯s nascent soul slowly recovered under the touch of this cool stream.


    In addition, his nascent soul was strong enough, so the recovery process was very fast.


    Soon, Zhou Feng recovered to his full condition!


    At this time, he recovered to his peak and felt no different than before.


    If A¡¯Rixi saw this, his jaw would definitely drop in shock.


    During Zhou Feng and A¡¯Rixi¡¯s battle, they had been fighting so recklessly that they destroyed their surroundings several times.


    In the end, they even used secret techniques that consumed more than half of their souls.


    Now, he was fine? This kind of recovery ability was simply unreasonable!


    At that moment, Leng Maner walked in with some food.


    ¡°You recovered?¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng, who was full of energy and had recovered to the peak, Leng Maner had a trace of disbelief on her face.


    She had glanced at Zhou Feng before leaving, and he looked exhausted due to his soul injury.


    According to Leng Maner¡¯s estimation, even with the Soul Gu¡¯s help, he would need at least five to six days to recover.


    Thus, Leng Maner had already made preparations and was prepared to wait for a few days.


    It never crossed her mind that Zhou Feng would recover completely in the blink of an eye as if nothing had happened.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! When do we leave?¡±


    Zhou Feng nodded, indicating that he was fine.


    Leng Maner asked, ¡°Don¡¯t you need to rest?¡±


    She had witnessed Zhou Feng and the four fiendish Demons fighting to the death. It had been an intense battle, so she speculated he would need a day or two to recuperate just from that.


    ¡°There¡¯s no need. We can set out immediately!¡±


    Zhou Feng shook his head, indicating that he did not need to rest.


    Ever since he had started cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, he had an endless supply of energy.


    He also did not need to sleep and eat due to the strength of his nascent soul and his Level-2 Gluttony.


    He only needed to consume some medicinal pills or herbs casually.


    Given his current condition, he would not feel sleepy even if he fought for three days and three nights non-stop. ¡°Good. This is Shadow Concealment Gu. It can conceal our auras.¡±


    Leng Maner took out a Gu with small wings. Not only could it conceal auras, but it could also disrupt the enemy¡¯s vision. They could infiltrate A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest without anyone noticing


    Compared to Zhou Feng, Leng Maner was even more anxious. After all, Myriad Spirit Gu was a rare treasure. It would be bad if A¡¯Rixi moved it somewhere else.


    Leng Maner controlled many people in A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest.


    With these people and the Shadow Concealment Gu¡¯s assistance, infiltrating A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest was a piece of cake.


    The real difficulty was how to enter A¡¯Rixi¡¯s treasury without being discovered.


    ¡®Shadow Concealment Gu? Another new Gu!¡¯


    Looking at the meaty Shadow Concealment Gu flapping its small wings, Zhou Feng was shocked once again.


    As expected, Leng Maner was the most authentic successor of the Tri-Gu Sect.


    These Gus were endless and could deal with countless situations.


    Compared to Leng Maner, Zhou Feng¡¯s methods were a little simple.


    ¡°What we need to discuss now is how to avoid A¡¯Rixi¡¯s eyes and ears and sneak into the Treasury,¡± Leng Maner said coldly.


    ¡°Sneak in? Why sneak in? If A¡¯Rixi does not interfere, can you break open the treasury¡¯s door?¡±


    Leng Maner¡¯s plan involved infiltrating the treasury and stealing the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Zhou Feng was against this plan as he wanted to kill A¡¯Rixi.


    Leng Maner frowned. ¡°You mean¡­¡±

 Chapter 249 - The Inescapable Net

    Chapter 249 The Inescapable Net


    If A¡¯Rixi did not intervene, it would be a piece of cake for Leng Maner to break through this treasure house!


    ¡°Piece of cake!¡±


    Leng Maner was not sure what Zhou Feng was trying to do.


    Zhou Feng asked again, ¡°Then do you have any means to isolate the surrounding movements temporarily?¡±


    Since he had discovered that killing Demons could accelerate his progress bar and increase the number of passive skills he obtained, he naturally would not let A¡¯Rixi off.


    The issue at hand was how to prevent A¡¯Rixi and the other Demons from forming a group.


    If it was one on one, with,


    Zhou Feng believed that he could kill A¡¯Rixi in a 1-vs-1 battle, with Leng Maner assisting from the side. Thus, there would be no need to go through so much trouble.


    After killing A¡¯Rixi, they could take whatever they wanted.


    ¡°Yes! I also know that I can temporarily block A¡¯Rixi¡¯s method of contacting the other Demons!¡±


    Leng Maner came to possess such a method through the blood and tears of the past generations of the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s grandmasters.


    Perhaps even A¡¯Rixi did not expect the Tri-Gu Sect to have such detailed intel on him. They even knew how he contacted the other Demons.


    ¡°Good! Then you should be able to stall those lackeys temporarily!¡± Zhou Feng did not expect Leng Maner to be able to do this.


    ¡°Of course! Those people have my Gus in their bodies, so it is not a problem to control them for a short period.¡±


    ¡°Since it is like this, I will be the main attacker, and you will assist from the side. We should kill A¡¯Rixi first. Then we will slowly distribute the spoils of war.¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Leng Maner stared at the excited Zhou Feng in bewilderment. What a lunatic! He actually wanted to kill A¡¯Rixi!


    If they were reckless, their plans would be foiled easily. After all, A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest was like a stronghold. If one was not careful, they would be heavily surrounded. It would not be so easy to escape.


    ¡°Also, once A¡¯Rixi is dead, the other Demons will definitely come to check on the situation. When the time comes¡­¡±


    This was not all. Zhou Feng even planned to ambush the Demons that came to check on the situation.


    The more Leng Maner listened to his plan, the more she frowned.


    Wasn¡¯t this putting herself in danger?


    To Leng Maner, getting the Myriad Spirit Gu was already the best outcome.


    As for revenge, she should wait until she broke through to the Divine Ability realm before making any plans!


    Given Leng Maner¡¯s current strength, being able to escape from this group of Demons was already considered not bad.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. When the time comes, you only need to take care of yourself.


    ¡°If the situation isn¡¯t right, just run away. I still have a trump card to escape on my own.¡±


    Zhou Feng considered Leng Maner¡¯s reservations.


    Leng Maner thought for a while. ¡°Then let¡¯s go with your plan!¡±


    Compared to her original plan, invading A¡¯Rixi¡¯s treasury without anyone noticing, killing A¡¯Rixi would not be as difficult.


    They would find where the Myriad Spirit Gu was when the time came.


    Not only would it be safer, but she could also take revenge for the extermination of her family.


    ¡°Good. Then let¡¯s act now!¡±


    Seeing that he had already persuaded Leng Maner, Zhou Feng decided to act immediately.


    They would take advantage of the fact A¡¯Rixi had not recovered and infiltrate to kill him as fast as possible.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Leng Maner was a resolute person, her actions swift and decisive.


    Thus, they immediately took action.


    First, she and Zhou Feng hid near A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest.


    After that, they made various arrangements and rushed into A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest to kill him.


    This was the general outline of the plan. It seemed very simple, but in reality, it was a test of Leng Maner¡¯s methods.


    For example, they could not let the outside world sense anything, and they also had to control A¡¯Rixi¡¯s subordinates.


    Lastly, the most important point was that they could not let A¡¯Rixi contact the other Demons.


    Only Leng Maner could accomplish these tasks.


    Fortunately, she had the Myriad Gu Goblet, which had had all sorts of strange Gus that could assist her in completing this mission.


    On the other side¡­


    A¡¯Rixi was feeling uneasy.


    ¡°Damn it! They haven¡¯t found him yet? That Human Emperor¡¯s successor is actually not dead!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s face turned ugly as his subordinate reported to him.


    The successor of the Human Emperor was still alive under those circumstances? This was simply nonsense!


    Zhou Feng should have died several times, yet he came back from the verge of death every single time, and someone even rescued him.


    This situation was too familiar!


    A¡¯Rixi had learned from the bloodline memories that the past Human Emperors were like that. No matter how they targeted them, they just couldn¡¯t die!


    They would even become stronger and stronger.


    A¡¯Rixi could feel the despair of his ancestors back then.


    Every time they targeted someone, the opponent would escape death and become stronger.


    It was as if they were the heavens¡¯ sweethearts.


    In the end, Patriarch Fiendish Demon figured out the crux of the matter-destiny was protecting the Human Emperors¡¯ bodies.


    Unless the Human Emperor Dragon Qi was exhausted, they would have to kill every last human, which was simply impossible.


    In the end, they had to borrow the hands of humans to kill the last successor of the Human Emperor.


    But after such a long time, was a new Human Emperor going to appear again? ¡°Something¡¯s wrong! Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi thought about it and suddenly felt that the situation was not right.


    Why did the surroundings suddenly become so quiet?


    Waves of crisis kept assaulting him.


    A¡¯Rixi immediately tried to rely on bloodline resonance to contact the other Demons.


    The Demons were all skilled at survival, and almost all of them were old and crafty foxes.


    If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng¡¯s unpredictable Soul Punch, killing that Demon would have taken a lot of effort.


    ¡°Oh no!¡±


    After A¡¯Rixi felt that some strange object blocked the bloodline resonance, his expression instantly turned ugly.


    Then, he planned to summon his servants.


    There was no reaction either!?


    After that, a formation descended from the sky and isolated this area.


    The entire process took less than three seconds, and the inescapable net trapped A¡¯Rixi.


    Finally, a familiar aura emerged.


    ¡°It¡¯s the successor of the Human Emperor? Why!? His aura has become so strong?¡±


    A¡¯Rixi felt Zhou Feng¡¯s aura, which did not feel weak at all.


    That was impossible!


    At that time, Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries had been so serious that even his soul was about to dissipate.


    How long had it been? How did he recover? How the heck did he become stronger!?

 Chapter 250 - An Exposed Trump Card Is Not a Trump Card

    Chapter 250 An Exposed Trump Card Is Not a Trump Card


    One had to know that A¡¯Rixi still had some minor injuries that had not fully recovered. His strength was still greatly affected.


    However, Zhou Feng was in peak condition, and his aura had become even stronger.


    How could A¡¯Rixi accept this?


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng was like a violent dragon, and his Blood Qi was like the raging sea, each wave higher than the other.


    He charged toward A¡¯Rixi and punched out, instantly shattering the ground.


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest was underground, so Zhou Feng planned to force him out.


    At present, A¡¯Rixi¡¯s minions were under Leng Maner¡¯s control, and a huge formation was restraining them. She had even used a Heaven and Earth Isolation Gu, blocking all sounds and communication.


    At that moment, A¡¯Rixi had nowhere to hide.


    The only way out was to face Zhou Feng head-on.


    ¡°Do you really think I am made of mud?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s arrogance incensed A¡¯Rixi, and his Demonic Qi started to churn. A strange demonic shadow appeared, and waves of Demonic Qi surged like clouds, assaulting Zhou Feng


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was like a rainbow as he faced A¡¯Rixi, who was charging toward him. There was no fear on their faces.


    Boom!


    The violent shockwaves spread in all directions while the fabrics of space in the center of the collision were about to shatter.


    ¡°Stronger again?¡± A¡¯Rixi felt unprecedented pressure during this exchange. He had experienced such pressure in their previous battle.


    ¡®How did his strength increase so fast in the blink of an eye!?¡¯


    ¡®Landslide!


    While A¡¯Rixi was still in shock, Zhou Feng¡¯s face was as cold as a blade. His body emitted a whistling sound, and the Human Emperor avatar behind him illuminated everything in the world.


    The punch made of Blood Qi instantly turned into a golden dragon.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Although A¡¯Rixi felt that Zhou Feng had become much stronger, he was not willing to be outdone.


    A purple-red demonic hand stretched forward, and the aura of destruction it carried seemed to want to crush the golden dragon.


    Boom!


    The battle between Zhou Feng and A¡¯Rixi was otherworldly, with terrifying explosions resounding through the isolated area.


    If not for the sealing formation and the Heaven and Earth Isolation Gu, the other Demons would have long been alarmed.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Leng Maner hid at the side.


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s previous plan, Leng Maner played a supportive role and didn¡¯t need to face A¡¯Rixi head-on.


    She only needed to take advantage of the time when A¡¯Rixi was fighting Zhou Feng to break open the treasury door.


    Zhou Feng would distract A¡¯Rixi until she found the Myriad Spirit Gu, and they would then join forces to kill A¡¯Rixi.


    ¡°Ice Spirit Gu! Extreme Cold Breath!¡±


    Leng Maner had all sorts of information, so she swiftly found the location of A¡¯Rixi¡¯s treasury.


    She even released the Ice Spirit Gu.


    This plump crystal-like Gu gave off a chilly aura, freezing the treasury¡¯s door.


    Next, Leng Maner summoned a Blazing Gu, a Gu that devoured flames, from the Myriad Gu Goblet.


    ¡°Blazing Gu! Spit fire!¡±


    The Blazing Gu shot a tongue of fire at the treasury¡¯s door, shattering it.


    This also triggered the trap that A¡¯Rixi had set up, and a black ray of light shot toward Leng Maner at lightning speed. Leng Maner did not even have the chance to dodge! Leng Maner¡¯s entire body stiffened, and she died!


    Three seconds later, however, Leng Maner¡¯s corpse turned into a Gu!


    This was the Phantom Gu, a Gu that could imitate the aura of a real person. It would be difficult to discover the Phantom Gu¡¯s existence if one didn¡¯t cultivate karma-related techniques or was not in the Divine Ability realm. ¡°Go! Go find your mother!¡±


    At that moment, Leng Maner¡¯s figure appeared from the shadows, and she released a Gu that resembled a little bee.


    Naturally, she did not intend to enter the treasury personally. Instead, she sent a Gu to find the Myriad Spirit Gu¡¯s location.


    Other than that, Leng Maner still had many Gus, such as the Diamond Gu, Bright King Gu, Bright Heart Gu, protecting her body, mind, and nascent soul.


    Leng Maner¡¯s progress and Zhou Feng¡¯s performance were very smooth.


    As time passed, his passive Fighting Spirit and Adaptive Shell were maximized, and Zhou Feng suppressed A¡¯Rixi even more.


    The Blood Qi that soared into the sky continuously surrounded Zhou Feng, and that special aura steadily increased.


    Meanwhile, A¡¯Rixi was constantly awakened by the fear in his bloodline.


    ¡°Too similar! Too similar! It¡¯s simply too similar!¡±


    Traces of fear grew in A¡¯Rixi¡¯s heart.


    Zhou Feng was becoming more like the Human Emperors of the past!


    The more he fought, the more terrifying he became.


    Although A¡¯Rixi was not afraid of Zhou Feng, the bloodline suppression was still there.


    The Human Emperors had a suppressive effect on the Demon bloodline. This was a hereditary divine ability of the Human Emperors. They had simply slaughtered so many Demons that the Demon race inherited their ancestors¡¯ deeply rooted terror through their bloodline memories.


    A¡¯Rixi was losing his courage and will to fight.


    ¡®No! This can not go on! I have to¡­¡¯


    A¡¯Rixi suddenly sobered up and fought against his bloodline memories¡¯ fear. He had steeled himself to fight with all his might against Zhou Feng.


    He began to burn his blood, and his body burst with power.


    Unexpectedly, just as A¡¯Rixi was gaining power, Zhou Feng did the unthinkable! ¡®Soul Punch!¡¯ Zhou Feng used his strongest move! He used his soul as fuel and directly attacked his opponent¡¯s soul.


    He had caught off guard the other Demon and instantly killed him.


    At this time, Zhou Feng used the same trick again, planning to kill A¡¯Rixi as he was powering up.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    A¡¯Rixi immediately covered his head and let out a blood-curdling scream.


    However, A¡¯Rixi didn¡¯t die. Instead, a jade pendant on his neck exploded. ¡°What!?¡±


    Zhou Feng, who was trying his best to open his eyes, revealed a hint of surprise on his face.


    ¡®He isn¡¯t dead!?¡¯


    As it turned out, after witnessing his comrade¡¯s instant death, A¡¯Rixi became vigilant of Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Punch. This kind of soul attack was really too strange, so he wore a soul treasure as protection.


    Although there was a slim possibility of encountering Zhou Feng later, he still had to be careful.


    Thus, A¡¯Rixi used a lot of things from his treasury and exchanged them with his comrades for a spiritual artifact that could protect his soul.


    It was the jade pendant that had just exploded.


    It was precisely because of this that A¡¯Rixi withstood Zhou Feng¡¯s strongest attack.


    ¡®Sure enough, a trump card stops being a trump card the second time¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng bit the tip of his tongue slightly to jolt his spirit.


    Once something like a trump card was exposed, the other party would have 10,000 ways to deal with it.


    Therefore, it was best to have as many trump cards as possible. Moreover, it was absolutely forbidden to be exposed.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng experienced how difficult it was to deal with this Demon.


    Fortunately, he was not completely unprepared.


    ¡®Nuke Punch!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had already anticipated this situation. Since the Soul Punch did not kill him, he would give him another punch.


    If one punch was not enough, he would give him another punch!


    Currently, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was injured, but the Blood Qi in his body was like a cloud of smoke that pierced through heaven and earth.


    He burned the Human Emperor Blood again!

 Chapter 251 - Beating Him to Death

    Chapter 251 Beating Him to Death


    Whenever Zhou Feng had reached his limit, he had to give it his all!


    Zhou Feng burned the Human Emperor Blood in his body, and his whole body instantly turned golden. The golden Blood Qi was like divine light.


    Boom!


    This punch shattered half of A¡¯Rixi¡¯s body under the many passive stacking effects.


    A¡¯Rixi had just defended against Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Punch, so he was unable to resist the Nuke Punch, which was enhanced by the passive Fighting Spirit and Injury Conversion¡¯s power boosts.


    What¡¯s worse¡­ the passive Armor-Piercing Spear was triggered!


    ¡°No! No!¡±


    This scene was just like the countless scenes in the bloodline memories.


    A¡¯Rixi was terror-stricken!


    His bloodline¡¯s deeply-rooted fear was once again stimulated, and the current A¡¯Rixi had no other thought than fleeing as far as possible.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not give him such a chance, showering him with one punch after the other.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng looked solemn, like a Supreme Immortal Emperor. The avatar behind him permeated the surroundings, suppressing A¡¯Rixi so much that he could not move.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Under the suppression of Zhou Feng¡¯s invincible avatar, A¡¯Rixi could only watch helplessly as he was smashed into pieces by one punch after another.


    The body of a Demon that was extremely tough was nothing compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    In the end, even his soul was shattered by Zhou Feng


    After A¡¯Rixi died, Zhou Feng felt all the blood in his body boil again.


    The Human Emperor Ring absorbed the pure demonic aura.


    ¡°Skill panel!¡±


    The Human Emperor Ring had just converted the pure demonic aura into even purer energy, so he had the skill panel absorb it all.


    Zhou Feng hoped to obtain more passive skills than directly raising his realm.


    There were many ways to raise one¡¯s realm, such as relying on pills, spiritual items, or fortuitous encounters.


    He could even rely on slowly grinding his way to the top. After all, his innate ability was Longevity.


    As long as he had a long lifespan, he would have the time to cultivate as much as he wanted.


    However, accumulating passive skills was a much slower process.


    Converting that pure energy into passive skills was better than directly improving his cultivation. This way, it would be more cost-effective.


    The skill panel did not respond upon sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts, but it was working slowly.


    The pure energy contained in the Human Emperor Ring was converted into passive progress.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Leng Maner was astonished.


    Leng Maner had completed her task, so she had rushed back to help Zhou Feng kill A¡¯Rixi.


    Surprisingly, she only rushed back to¡­ witness A¡¯Rixi being pummeled to death!?


    ¡®Such strength! He became stronger again?¡¯


    Although Leng Maner couldn¡¯t believe it, Zhou Feng indeed appeared to have gotten stronger.


    How long had it been? Less than a day had passed, yet his strength improved to a ridiculous level again!?


    Leng Maner finally understood why Zhou Feng was fighting with no qualms.


    It turned out that this kind of experiential learning really had an effect, and the effect was evident.


    ¡®Innate battle maniac?¡¯


    Leng Maner had heard that some people with extraordinary talent had extremely poor cultivation aptitudes.


    Still, their cultivation speed was terrifying, far surpassing many people with monstrous aptitudes.


    The reason was that these kinds of people were innate battle maniacs, and they could improve themselves every time they fought.


    Their cultivation speed would be comparable to a first-rate genius as long as they did not die.


    However, almost none of these battle geniuses survived until the end.


    After years of battle, they would accumulate injuries and afflictions. In addition, these people would often challenge those of a higher level.


    Perhaps, these people could obtain extremely dazzling achievements for short periods.


    However, they would still die at the hands of a certain monster.


    ¡®This time, the soul injury is even more severe!¡¯


    After Zhou Feng killed A¡¯Rixi, the backlash of this crazy battle knocked on his door.


    The first was the weakness of the nascent soul.


    Although killing A¡¯Rixi triggered the passive Soul Harvesting and increased his soul power a little, the damage to his nascent soul was still too severe.


    Zhou Feng was very sleepy now due to his soul injury. This feeling was as if he had not slept for three days and three nights, waves of exhaustion surging up unceasingly.


    Other than that, the physical pain decreased as his passive Tenacious Heart got to work. At most, he could eat a few medicinal pills and spirit herbs, and the injuries would heal faster.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Leng Maner noticed his complexion did not look good and immediately approached him, her cold face revealing traces of concern.


    ¡°Do you still have the Gu that can heal soul injuries?¡±


    ¡°Your soul¡­ I have one more! This Soul Gu is extremely difficult to cultivate!¡±


    Leng Maner finally understood why Zhou Feng was like this.


    ¡®His soul is actually so weak.¡¯


    ¡°Give it to me!¡±


    Zhou Feng forced himself not to fall asleep.


    This time, he had overestimated himself. He did not expect the Soul Punch¡¯s side effects to be so great.


    Moreover, A¡¯Rixi had actually withstood the Soul Punch Fist. Evidently, he had been on guard previously.


    Perhaps, the other Demons also had the means to deal with this move. It appears that this attack would be useless against the other Demons.


    He was still not strong enough!


    If he were, there would be no need to be so low-key. He could just rely on his physical body to destroy these Demons.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Leng Maner did not hesitate and directly gave him the remaining Soul Gu.


    Although it was not easy to cultivate Soul Gu, Leng Maner was still relatively clear-headed.


    Now that A¡¯Rixi was dead, the other Demons would definitely react. And among the two, the only one who could fight against these Demons was Zhou Feng.


    Thus, she had to ensure Zhou Feng¡¯s battle strength under such circumstances.


    Leng Maner was very clear about her own strength. Although it was impossible to fight head-on, the strange Gu system allowed her to be a great support-type expert.


    Zhou Feng devoured the Soul Gu, healing his nascent soul to a certain degree.


    Waves of coolness rushed throughout his body, and his exhausted nascent soul could be considered to have rested.


    After his nascent soul recovered by half, Zhou Feng asked, ¡°How is it? Have you found it?¡± ¡°Not yet. I was afraid that A¡¯Rixi had a backup plan, so I only sent a Gu to investigate.


    ¡°Eh? I found it!¡±


    As she said this, Leng Maner¡¯s eyes lit up. The Myriad Spirit Gu had been found!


    ¡°Good! Let¡¯s Go See What good stuff is in that Treasure Vault!¡±


    Zhou Feng wanted to go to A¡¯Rixi¡¯s treasury and see his spoils of war.


    Thus, the two slowly walked to the treasury entrance, and they saw a small Gu dragging a rock out of the treasury.


    ¡°Myriad Spirit Gu!¡±


    Leng Maner¡¯s eyes immediately showed traces of excitement.


    She had been hiding for so long just for this Myriad Spirit Gu! The Divine Ability realm was no longer a dream! Moreover, Zhou Feng had beaten A¡¯Rixi to death, which was akin to taking revenge on her behalf for the extermination of her family.


    Leng Maner felt that several knots in her heart had been severed in less than a day.


    She could finally cultivate wholeheartedly.


    Although Leng Maner was very excited, she still appeared very calm.


    First, she used all sorts of methods to check whether there was anything wrong with the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Only when she did not feel anything wrong did she finally keep the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised by her caution. Remaining calm under such circumstances was really rare.

 Chapter 252 - Leng Maners Good Impression +1

    Chapter 252 Leng Maner¡¯s Good Impression +1


    ¡°According to the agreement, all the things inside are yours.¡±


    After putting the Myriad Spirit Gu into her bag, the trace of joy on Leng Maner¡¯s face disappeared without a trace. She returned to the ice mountain goddess of the past.


    All the things in this treasury belonged to Zhou Feng alone.


    One had to know that A¡¯Rixi was a Demon that had been alive for God knew how long. Hei also controlled many sects behind the scenes, so there were definitely many good things in the treasury.


    As for these treasures, Leng Maner said she didn¡¯t want any of them.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t stand on ceremony. After all, these things were what he deserved.


    ¡®Appraising Eye! Activate!¡¯


    Compared to Leng Maner, he had a huge advantage¡ªthe passive Appraising Eye.


    There was basically no need to be afraid of any traps as the passive Appraising Eye would see through them all.


    (Demon Soul Chasing Formation: This is the inheritance formation of the Demon race. Once you enter, demonic aura will contaminate you.)


    Zhou Feng checked the treasure and his passive skill informed him that a large formation was covering it.


    This was the Demon Soul Chasing Formation, and It did not have any offensive or defensive functions.


    However, if someone entered, they would be contaminated by a very faint trace of demonic aura. Then, an endless stream of Demons would come to find trouble with the marked party.


    This was the usual practice of the Demon race to guard against thieves.


    In ancient times, there had been a sect that specialized in stealing¡ªthe Starseizer Sect.


    They had once stolen everything from the Demon race, and the Demon Patriarch of the time was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot.


    The Demon race had already declined at that time, and they would not dare to make a fuss even if someone stole a few things from them.


    This had fueled the Starseizer Sect¡¯s arrogance. They did not dare to steal from the human race¡¯s great sects, but the Demon race was fair game!


    At that time, the Human Emperor of that era and his tribe were looking for trouble with the Demon race everywhere.


    As long as they revealed a bit of information, the Human Emperor would force the Demon race to the ends of the earth.


    Thus, the Starseizer Sect had been in a frenzy, looting the Demons¡¯ belongings, to the point they were forced to create the Demon Soul Chasing Formation.


    First, they had let the Starseizer thieves steal the items, and after a few hundred years, they would slowly retrieve them one by one.


    In any case, as long as the demonic aura contaminated something, it would not dissipate for a few hundred years.


    Because of this, the Demon race had used the demonic aura to find the Starseizer Sect¡¯s nest.


    They had taken advantage of the Starseizer Sect¡¯s decline, eradicating the sect and its inheritance forever.


    ¡°Demonic aura? Take out the Myriad Spirit Gu! There¡¯s something wrong with it!¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned upon reading the formation¡¯s description. It was obvious that demonic aura had contaminated Leng Maner¡¯s Myriad Spirit Gu.


    No matter what, Leng Maner was his friend now, so he naturally had the duty to help her. ¡°What!? There¡¯s something wrong?¡±


    Leng Maner¡¯s whole body tensed up upon hearing the first half of his sentence. She thought Zhou Feng was eyeing the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Upon hearing the second half of his sentence, Leng Maner also frowned.


    After thinking for a while, she took out the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Based on Zhou Feng¡¯s previous behavior, he did not seem to be a despicable person.


    Plus, the Insight Gu did not react. Hence, Leng Maner still chose to believe Zhou Feng in the end.


    The Insight Gu was also a kind of heaven and earth mystical Gu that could see through people¡¯s hearts.


    Leng Maner had a certain amount of trust in Zhou Feng was largely because the Insight Gu showed that he did not harbor malicious intent.


    Otherwise, Leng Maner would not have chosen to cooperate with Zhou Feng.


    [Myriad Spirit Gu: ??? Contaminated with a trace of demonic aura???)


    The Myriad Spirit Gu¡¯s peculiar description was displayed.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? There are a bunch of question marks?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes revealed a trace of surprise due to the question marks.


    This was indeed a little strange. After all, the Appraising Eye could identify almost everything, even the Demon Soul Chasing Formation. Unexpectedly, it could not identify the Myriad Spirit Gu.


    Although this was a little strange, the Myriad Spirit Gu was indeed contaminated.


    ¡°Demonic aura has contaminated it! You have to get rid of it. Otherwise, you might be targeted by the Demons in the future!¡± Zhou Feng informed Leng Maner about the current situation.


    ¡°Demonic aura?¡±


    Leng Maner frowned even more when she heard this. She had not felt any trace of demonic aura, but she still believed what Zhou Feng said.


    He did not covet the Myriad Spirit Gu. He was only warning her.


    ¡°Gnawing Gu!¡±


    After thinking for a while, Leng Maner took out a Gu with a mouth that occupied 99% of its body.


    This Gnawing Gu devoured the Myriad Spirit Gu¡¯s outer shell.


    Following that, the Myriad Spirit Gu¡¯s true body was revealed.


    Its entire body was shining brightly, like seven-colored glass, sparkling and translucent, without a trace of impurities.


    The rainbow-colored light slowly scattered around, and a beautiful and illusory image appeared. ¡°Is this the Myriad Spirit Gu¡¯s true appearance?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened. He had never seen such a beautiful scene before.


    On the other hand, Leng Maner was a little nervous, her eyes staring at Zhou Feng.


    When she saw that there was no greed in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, she heaved a sigh of relief.


    One could not guarantee that even close relatives and friends would not be greedy when it came to such treasures.


    Leng Maner had grown up in Tri-Gu Sect, so she had long seen the evil in people¡¯s hearts.


    Thus, when Leng Maner saw Zhou Feng¡¯s pure eyes, her impression of Zhou Feng increased by a large margin.


    Adding on Zhou Feng¡¯s previous performance and the period that he played along as her husband-in-name, she could not conceal the blush on her cold face. This only lasted for a split second, however, so Zhou Feng did not notice anything


    [Myriad Spirit Gu: A top-grade spiritual item nurtured by countless Gus. It can even give birth to spirituality and has the ability to transform into tens of thousands of Gus.]


    The details of this Myriad Spirit Gu appeared again.


    ¡®That is to say, that layer of stone skin could block detection? Looks like the Appraising Eye won¡¯t be so useful after encountering some detection-blocking techniques¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng finally understood why the Appraising Eye was useless earlier. It was because of that outer layer of stone skin.


    ¡°Alright, the demonic aura is gone. There is also a formation here¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng gestured for Leng Maner to put away the Myriad Spirit Gu. Then, he began to explain why the demonic aura had contaminated it.


    After hearing his explanation, Leng Maner could not help but feel some lingering fear.


    If Zhou Feng was not here, then it was very likely that the Demons would come looking for her one day.


    ¡°Alright! Now it¡¯s my turn to collect the spoils of war!¡±


    After Zhou Feng finished speaking, he directly stepped into the treasury.


    Furthermore, he didn¡¯t take the slightest protective measure, stunning Leng Maner.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t you just say that there was a large formation in this treasury!? How could you be So¡­¡¯

 Chapter 253 - Goodbye

    Chapter 253 Goodbye


    Zhou Feng walked straight into the treasury. He didn¡¯t even have the slightest bit of protection, and the demonic aura immediately tainted his body.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. I just want to be tainted with the demonic aura,¡± explained Zhou Feng.


    Unlike Leng Maner, he was eager for the Demons to come knocking on his door.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, a Demon was equivalent to a passive skill.


    If a Demon came to him, that would be the best.


    Secondly, this demonic aura should be considered a negative state. Thus, it would last for a day at most due to the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth¡¯s daily purification.


    Then, he could lure some Demons into the pit today.


    ¡°Wait outside for a while,¡± Zhou Feng said and walked into the treasury.


    After walking into A¡¯Rixi¡¯s treasury, he was a little surprised. It was actually very clean inside, and there were not many things.


    Apart from a bunch of broken spiritual artifacts, there were only blood-red pills.


    (Bloodline Pill: A special pill refined from the purest Blood Qi and Demonic Qi. It can stimulate and purify the most primitive bloodline in one¡¯s body.


    It contains a small amount of Demonic Qi. If one consumes too many, they easily trigger demonization.]


    ¡®Bloodline Pill?¡¯


    Zhou Feng understood the pills¡¯ specific functions.


    This was a special pill that stimulated and purified the bloodline. It did not have any other functions.


    The Demons did not need to cultivate to increase their strength. As long as the concentration of the bloodline in their body increased to a certain degree, their cultivation level would naturally increase.


    The Demons invested everything in improving their physical bodies and bloodlines.


    As for divine abilities, techniques, or battle experience, these things could be obtained through the bloodline memories.


    A¡¯Rixi had been in charge of this area for hundreds of years, and he would thin the herd every once in a while and use their Blood Qi to refine this special Bloodline Pill.


    Speaking of which, the successors of the first Human Emperor had created this Bloodline


    Pill.


    They had wanted to recreate the first Human Emperor¡¯s glory, but they still failed in the end. They had relied on the Bloodline Pill to stimulate the Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline, but it couldn¡¯t be compared to the first Human Emperor¡¯s.


    In the end, it was the Demon race that benefited by stealing the formula and altering


    it.


    The Bloodline Pills in front of Zhou Feng were the final product of the Demons¡¯ efforts.


    ¡®Stimulate the bloodline? There are so many of them?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the Bloodline Pills in front of him and found that there were so many of them that it was ridiculous.


    Were these things useful?


    Zhou Feng could not help but contemplate.


    ¡®These Bloodline Pills seem to be exclusive to the Demon race. If one eats too many of them, they will undergo demonization¡­


    ¡®Wait! If one eats too many, the Demonic Qi will accumulate. Then, could this be considered a negative state?


    ¡®Could my Purification of Heaven and Earth purify this negative state?


    ¡®If it¡¯s possible, then these Bloodline Pills seem to be useful.


    ¡®Forget it! I don¡¯t care if they are useful or not! Let¡¯s try them first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not care whether they were useful or not. He would try one first and would deal with any problem that may arise accordingly. Since these were his spoils of war, he would not waste them.


    Anyway, his passive skills gave him the courage to try one pill, which could not have many side effects.


    Soon, he popped a Bloodline Pill in his mouth.


    As soon as the Bloodline Pill entered his stomach, the Blood Qi in his entire body began to surge.


    The Human Emperor Blood in his heart became purer, and the total amount increased by a tiny bit.


    This was an instant effect.


    Ever since Zhou Feng had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm and began to condense the Human Emperor Blood, the rate at which the Human Emperor Blood was being condensed had been ridiculously slow.


    No matter how hard he tried, there was only that single drop. It would be even more challenging to condense even more Human Emperor Blood.


    Zhou Feng guessed that the Human Emperor Blood in his body was too thin.


    That was why this happened.


    But now that he had swallowed a Bloodline Pill, not only did it make the Human Emperor Blood in his body purer, but it also increased the total amount in his body by a little?


    There were also side effects, however. Wisps of black gas started to gather and settle in his meridians. Although there were not many wisps, it was difficult to eradicate them.


    ¡®Looks like I have to consume them carefully¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng stored all the Bloodline Pills in his storage ring.


    Fortunately, his storage ring was big enough to hold all the items.


    As for the other items, he did not have time to look at them carefully. He stored them all in his storage ring.


    After all, Leng Maner was waiting for him outside.


    After packing everything up, Zhou Feng walked out of the treasury and noticed a conflicted expression on Leng Maner¡¯s face.


    Coincidentally, the moonlight was like cascading water.


    Leng Maner was slim and graceful. Her hair was slightly messy, and her black eyebrows were furrowed.


    This appearance caused Zhou Feng to stare blankly at her.


    Noticing that someone was looking at her, Leng Maner instantly wore her signature cold expression again.


    ¡°How is it?¡±


    ¡°All done.¡±


    ¡°What are your plans next?¡±


    ¡°Plans? I think I will continue to train here.¡±


    For some reason, the two of them started to talk awkwardly again.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to leave this place because he had not experienced enough and could not return to Heavenly Star City just yet.


    He might as well farm more Demons and obtain more passive skills until this place was of no use to him anymore.


    As for Leng Maner, since A¡¯Rixi was dead and the Myriad Spirit Gu was in her hands, there was no longer any meaning to stay in this dangerous place.


    She wanted to pursue the Great Dao of cultivation.


    One wanted to stay, and the other wanted to leave.


    Leng Maner did not know how to describe it. Zhou Feng should be the first true friend in her life!


    None of the so-called friends from the Tri-Gu Sect could be compared to Zhou Feng.


    Leng Maner also cherished her first friend very much.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng finally understood Leng Maner¡¯s intention. He was about to speak first, but Leng Maner beat him to it.


    ¡°This is for you! See you again if fate permits!¡±


    Leng Maner was extremely decisive, directly throwing a jade-colored Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    This was considered a parting gift. She planned to leave immediately.


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned and searched his storage ring for a while.


    [Red Blood Sash: Woven from the tendons of an unknown exotic beast. It has the effect of nourishing the body and slightly stimulating the bloodline.]


    This was a red hand sash with gold threads inlaid in it. It could be considered a spiritual weapon.


    This was an item from Zhou Feng¡¯s collection. Its effect was very ordinary, but it looked quite nice. Thus, he gifted it to Leng Maner.


    ¡°This is for you. I hope that you¡¯ll have reached the Divine Ability realm the next time we meet.¡±


    Leng Maner kept the red blood sash and glanced at him. She did not say anything else and turned around to leave.


    Under the moonlight,


    Although Leng Maner was dressed in plain clothes, she was like an agile fairy under the moonlight. She disappeared in an instant.


    Zhou Feng used more than ten seconds to calm his emotions before returning his attention to himself.

 Chapter 254 - Second Heart?

    Chapter 254 Second Heart?


    After watching Leng Maner leave, Zhou Feng finally had the time to see what kind of Gu she had given him.


    (Death Substitution Gu: It can take a fatal injury on behalf of the host.]


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened slightly when he saw the Death Substitution Gu.


    ¡°There¡¯s such a Gu? In terms of function alone, it is invaluable!


    ¡®Since it can withstand a fatal injury in a critical moment, isn¡¯t this equivalent to a life-saving amulet!?


    ¡®It¡¯s probably challenging to nurture this kind of Gu.¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not expect Leng Maner to give him such a precious gift.


    This was kind of awkward, however.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was unable to host a Gu due to the dominance of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Thus, this Death Substitution Gu did not seem to be of much use to him.


    Nonetheless, it should be considered a rare item, and it would come in handy in the future.


    Zhou Feng carefully stored the Death Substitution Gu.


    Then what should I do now?¡¯


    Now that Leng Maner was gone, he no longer had a helper. How should he deal with those Demons next?


    ¡®Oh right! I seem to have another chance to draw a passive skill!¡¯


    A¡¯Rixi¡¯s death had given him this opportunity.


    No matter what, there was nothing wrong with increasing one¡¯s strength.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng drew a new passive skill on the spot.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Zhou Feng was actually able to obtain another new passive skill after less than a day.


    To be honest, it was still faster to increase one¡¯s strength after coming out to train.


    During his stay in Heavenly Star City, the speed at which his strength increased had been too slow.


    Second Heart: You will gain a second heart! The upper limit of your Blood Qi reserves will be doubled!

    Your Strength, Endurance, and Speed will be increased by 15%. ¡°F*ck! Did I just get lucky!?¡±


    When he saw this passive skill, Zhou Feng¡¯s heart started to beat rapidly.


    Too strong! It was probably because the previous passive skills were a little weak.


    This new passive skill was too strong!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face had just revealed an excited expression when waves of intense pain began to spread from his heart.


    A drum-like beating sound echoed out of Zhou Feng¡¯s chest as a new heart began to form.


    The original heart was located on the left side of his body, while this new heart was located to the right.


    The new heart was rapidly formed under the interference of a powerful external force.


    It also participated in the circulation of the blood.


    Hunger and thirst!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body began to send out the signal of hunger and thirst.


    Originally, he felt that his Blood Qi reserves were like an endless ocean.


    But now, he actually felt that his Blood Qi reserves were empty.


    This was probably because the upper limit had been doubled.


    ¡°I¡¯m so hungry!¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer and began to crazily pour food and pills out of his storage ring into his mouth. He didn¡¯t even need to chew these things but instead swallowed them well for his Level-2 Gluttony to digest them all.


    He converted them into pure Blood Qi and all sorts of nutrients to feed Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Apart from the increase in Blood Qi, this sudden addition of a heart also affected every aspect of his body.


    His speed and endurance were affected greatly, but the most terrifying increase was that of his body strength.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was already otherworldly, and he even seemed to have reached a bottleneck during this period.


    But now, it rose steadily under the impact of the violent Blood Qi.


    ¡°The Human Emperor Blood is also condensing further!?¡± What surprised Zhou Feng the most was probably that the Human Emperor Blood had begun to condense in his body.


    The Endless Blood Qi was crazily transformed, condensing a drop of new Human Emperor Blood in the other heart.


    The golden Human Emperor Blood continued to purify the Blood Qi in his body, increasing the concentration of his new drop of Human Emperor Blood.


    This kind of breakthrough was an all-around improvement, and it did not require much effort.


    Passive skills were simple, crude, and logic-defying. Compared to slowly increasing one¡¯s realm and then relying on the realm to increase their strength, gaining passive skills was better. No matter how many passive skills Zhou Feng had, they did not affect the advancement of his realm.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s decision back then was correct.


    At that moment, just the rhythm of the Blood Qi raised the temperature in the surroundings to an alarming degree.


    Zhou Feng was like a huge furnace that was burning fiercely, sweeping away the demonic aura in the surroundings.


    ¡®But the consumption has also increased by a lot!¡¯


    Zhou Feng keenly noticed a drawback¡ªthe amount of energy needed to sustain his body had increased considerably. This shouldn¡¯t be considered a drawback but a natural need of his extra heart.


    Zhou Feng became more prone to hunger, and his demand for Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi had skyrocketed.


    As a vagabond cultivator, he didn¡¯t have a steady supply of resources. Thus, this increase in consumption was a big problem for him.


    Nonetheless, he was not too worried. Since he was strong enough, it was easy to obtain resources.


    Zhou Feng had tasted the sweetness, so he became even more eager to hunt down Demons.


    ¡°One Demon is equal to one lucky draw! If I could draw a few more passive skills like this, hehe!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not dare to imagine how much his strength would increase if he had a few more passive skills like this.


    After contemplating for a moment, he did not leave. He chose to stay and wait for the Demons¡¯ arrival.


    As time passed, the formation that Leng Maner had set up in the surroundings slowly dissipated.


    The Demons would definitely notice that something was amiss, and they might come together to investigate.


    Zhou Feng was an unconventional person that didn¡¯t follow regular tropes. Those Demons probably would not expect he would stay where he was after killing A¡¯Rixi and wait for them to come knocking on his door!


    After all, staying here was a dangerous choice. As long as one did not have a screw loose, they would not choose to do so.


    Once he stayed there, he would be in danger of being surrounded.


    ¡®Luckily, I still have the Shadow Concealment Gu. It should not be a problem to conceal my aura.¡¯


    Zhou Feng still had the Shadow Concealment Gu Leng Maner had given him earlier, and it could conceal his aura to the greatest extent.


    This way, he only needed to wait for the Demons to come to him.


    He could take them by surprise and launch a sneak attack when the time came!


    In any case, killing one would not be a loss. Killing two would be a huge gain, while three would be a bountiful harvest!


    Zhou Feng hid in A¡¯Rixi¡¯s treasury, waiting for the Demons¡¯ arrival.


    In reality, he did not need to wait for the formation around him to disappear.


    The moment A¡¯Rixi died, all the nearby Demons sensed it.


    ¡°He¡¯s dead!?¡±


    ¡°A¡¯Rixi?¡±


    ¡°Was it the Human Emperor¡¯s successor!?¡±

 Chapter 255 - Fortune Protection

    Chapter 255 Fortune Protection


    The other Demons instantly discovered A¡¯Rixi¡¯s death through their bloodline resonance.


    One should know that the Demons didn¡¯t share the same bloodline at first; heck, they were not even a race back then.


    Only due to the Human Emperors¡¯ suppression they became a race after so many years. The strongest Demon of a certain era had collected all the bloodlines of the scattered Demons and fused them, giving birth to the Demon race and a special bloodline. This was their path to survival.


    ¡°It¡¯s definitely that person! It can¡¯t be wrong!¡±


    ¡°He is no different from those lunatics in the bloodline memories!¡±


    ¡°Maybe he is waiting for us, just like those lunatics!¡±


    The Demons gathered together to discuss A¡¯Rixi¡¯s death.


    They did not rush to the place where A¡¯Rixi had died. Instead, they gathered together to discuss how they were going to deal with it.


    They even speculated that Zhou Feng was waiting for them.


    If Zhou Feng knew that his plan was exposed, he would be shocked.


    Normally, no one would think he would continue to wait for them.


    Unfortunately, they had immediately seen through his plan.


    The reason was simple. Each Human Emperor had been crazier than the other, and they had employed this tactic countless times.


    Some had even been captured deliberately and waited for the Demons to gather. They would then self-destruct, taking their enemies with them.


    That kind of crazy will was deeply engraved in the Demon race¡¯s bloodline memories.


    Otherwise, the Demon race would not be so miserable and could only hide in this remote place, struggling for their lives.


    One had to know that the Southern Border itself was relatively remote in this world. It was not the main area of activity for human cultivators.


    Not to mention that this was the most remote place in the Southern Border itself.


    If one were to talk about the Holy Land of human cultivation, only the Eastern Land, which was filled with Spiritual Grotto-Heavens, and the Central Plains, which used to be the land of the human race, could be counted as such.


    The rest of the Southern Border, the Far West, and the Northern Region were all poor places in the eyes of many human cultivators.


    One of the Demons made a suggestion. ¡°Then what should we do now? Do we have to invite the patriarch out of the mountain?¡±


    This suggestion was quickly rejected. It was too risky to invite a Demon King[1].


    Human Divine Ability experts were not to be trifled with, after all.


    Although the Demons were not afraid of ordinary Divine Ability experts and could even fight with human cultivators who had just entered the Divine Ability realm, the crux of the matter was that the Heavenly Star Patriarch was in charge of Heavenly Star City.


    That was a monster that had lost in the competition in the Central Plains. He was a pinnacle Divine Ability expert and a step away from breaking through to an even more mysterious domain.


    The most troublesome matter was that the Heavenly Star Patriarch had a dao artifact to help him. His Starlight of the Nine Heavens would automatically target the Demon Kings. If there were any unusual movements, they would be attacked immediately.


    As a result, unless they could invite another Demon King (Patriarch) or a Demon of a higher realm, it was impossible to invite the slumbering Demon King casually to make a move.


    Not to mention, they were only here to deal with a human Purple Mansion cultivator.


    At present, the Demons were at the stage where they were accumulating their strength. It wasn¡¯t appropriate for them to cause any trouble.


    ¡°Then what should we do?¡±


    ¡°Why don¡¯t the three of us go and investigate?¡±


    ¡°If we work together, it shouldn¡¯t be a problem for us to keep our lives!¡±


    ¡°We just need to be careful of that person risking his life!¡±


    ¡°Good!¡±


    The three Demons thought about it and decided to meet Zhou Feng personally.


    No matter what, their combined strength was a force to be reckoned with.


    As long as they focused on defense, they believed that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able to do anything to them.


    In any case, as long as they were careful and fended against Zhou Feng¡¯s killing techniques, such as the life-ending Soul Punch, they should be able to save their lives.


    Zhou Feng probably didn¡¯t expect that these Demons would be so spineless. They had the advantage in numbers, yet they were already considering a way out.


    This was too shameful!


    However, the Demons didn¡¯t share this sentiment. Their survival was their top priority.


    They only needed to endure. Relying on their special physiques and lifespan, they would be the final victors.


    Although humans had many monsters, their lifespans were still a bit short. This should be their greatest weakness!


    Zhou Feng had been sitting cross-legged for a few days now, swallowing all sorts of herbs and pills from time to time.


    He was even continuously swallowing the Bloodline Pills that he had found in the treasury.


    Ever since he had obtained the second heart, the amount of Blood Qi that his body could contain had doubled.


    Zhou Feng was constantly filling in this gap right now. At the same time, he was using this opportunity to break through to the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    Also, the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth was indeed effective against the Bloodline Pills¡¯ side effects.


    Initially, one would slowly accumulate some Demonic Qi in their body by consuming the Bloodline Pill.


    This Demonic Qi was tough to expel, an almost irreversible process.


    However, it was not worth mentioning in the face of the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth. Therefore, Zhou Feng was able to swallow the Bloodline Pill without any scruples, purifying and improving his Human Emperor bloodline.


    Zhou Feng was constantly moving the huge amount of Blood Qi in his body and then refining his body according to the method recorded in the Human Emperor Scripture.


    The golden Blood Qi was like a real dragon that was entrenched on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    It would course through his entire body from time to time and draw upon the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. This scene was jaw-dropping


    He himself was sitting cross-legged on the ground. His white clothes were fluttering in the wind, and his body was sparkling, while the surrounding air had become scorching hot.


    ¡°Break!¡±


    When the drop of Human Emperor Blood was condensed in his second heart, Zhou Feng opened his eyes and roared.


    The bottleneck of the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm cracked, and there was no obstruction at all.


    He stepped into the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm!


    The instant Zhou Feng broke through to the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm, a dragon¡¯s roar rose into the air.


    This dragon¡¯s roar was even clearer than before, and the dragon was no longer an indistinct phantom.


    Strands of golden Dragon Qi began to gather, and then they guarded Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Altar. Then, an illusory dragon made of Dragon Qi enveloped his nascent soul. It looked noble and ancient, and it was slowly nourishing Zhou Feng¡¯s nascent soul.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!?¡±


    This unexpected turn of events startled Zhou Feng


    This was because a cultivator¡¯s soul was of utmost importance. Now that such a change had occurred, it was impossible for Zhou Feng not to be nervous.


    After observing for a while, he did not find anything amiss. Instead, the threads of Dragon Qi were constantly nourishing his soul.


    ¡°The soul injury is slowly recovering!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that it was a bit like the legendary fortune protection.


    According to the legends, the heirs of many sects and large clans would have the so-called fortune protection, guarding their souls against outsiders.


    At the same time, they could turn misfortune into luck and even take the initiative to protect their master when necessary.


    ¡®But I am a mere vagabond cultivator! How could I attract this so-called fortune protection? Where does this fortune come from!?¡¯


    [1] Divine Ability cultivator.

 Chapter 256 - Twists And Turns

    Chapter 256 Twists And Turns


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t really believe in the so-called fortune protection, but he couldn¡¯t explain what had happened to him.


    ¡°Could it be because of the Human Emperor Scripture? Or the first Human Emperor? But isn¡¯t the first Human Emperor long gone?¡±


    The first Human Emperor had disappeared for an unknown period.


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that there was a high probability that the first Human Emperor had left behind the illusionary dragon.


    After all, there were very few forces that could protect one¡¯s fortune.


    The first Human Emperor was one of them. The Human Emperor Scripture Zhou Feng cultivated was connected with the first Human Emperor.


    After thinking about it, this was the only explanation.


    If that were the case, then it would be troublesome.


    After all, there was no free lunch in this world. Since one enjoyed the first Human Emperor¡¯s fortune, they would have to bear his karma in return.


    The enemies of the former Human Emperor would automatically become the successors¡¯ enemies.


    There were also other factors and forces in the mix, which made the situation even more troublesome.


    Still, the worst thing was that Zhou Feng could not get rid of the Human Emperor Scripture now. It was already considered his main cultivation technique, so he could not pick another one.


    ¡°I was wondering how I could obtain the heaven-bestowed fist arts! So the first Human Emperor¡¯s destiny was helping me all along¡­¡±


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng sucked in a breath of cold air. He instantly understood what was going on.


    The heaven-bestowed fist art was obviously the first Human Emperor had left behind to help his successors.


    Otherwise, given Zhou Feng¡¯s talent, he would not have been able to obtain such an opportunity in his lifetime.


    Moreover, the first Human Emperor¡¯s destiny had helped him in the beginning probably because he was fighting against the Demon


    race.


    Another drop of the Human Emperor Blood had condensed in his body after killing another Demon, so the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny instantly acknowledged him and bestowed him with the fortune protection!


    Relying on a simple deduction, Zhou Feng roughly figured out what was going on.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what to do for a moment.


    In this way, he could be considered a person with great fortune.


    However, this fortune belonged to the first Human Emperor.


    Zhou Feng had specifically looked for information about the Human Emperor because he had obtained the Emperor Scripture before.


    The Human Emperor was an antique to the current world.


    Basically, no one wanted a new Human Emperor to emerge again and rule over them.


    Therefore, the Human Emperor¡¯s fortune was actually a hot potato. It was very easy to be targeted by others.


    ¡°Wait! Why do I need to think so much? I don¡¯t need to think about such things at my current level! Do I have the right to refuse?¡±


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng patted his head.


    Was it useful to think so much?


    It was better to polish his body instead of overthinking and fretting over such things.


    As long as he didn¡¯t want to, who could force him to do things he didn¡¯t want to do?


    Whether it was the first Human Emperor¡¯s fortune or destiny, they were all external forces to him. In any case, his foundation and capital were his various passive skills.


    Zhou Feng suddenly had a very clear understanding of himself. His future path of cultivation would definitely be centered around all kinds of passive skills, with the rest of the cultivation techniques, artifacts, and pills as support.


    He would firmly focus on his passive skills and treat everything else as support to reach his ultimate goal-immortality.


    ¡°Yes! That¡¯s it!¡±


    He stopped feeling worried and calmed down again..


    ¡°We¡¯re here! Do we need to test it out first?¡±


    ¡°Of course!¡±


    ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, that person is right in the center!¡±


    The three fiendish Demons soon arrived at A¡¯Rixi¡¯s nest.


    As if they could feel the grief and indignation of A¡¯Rixi before his death, the three Demons appeared to be very cautious.


    ¡°Saint Demon Slaying the Sky!¡±


    The three Demons exerted their strength at the same time.


    A strange dark fog rose.


    The sky and earth changed color in an instant as a mysterious and dark aura began to spread.


    Zhou Feng, who had his eyes closed, opened them.


    ¡®Did they detect me?¡¯


    He was somewhat surprised. He hadn¡¯t expected that he would actually be exposed and that this method of waiting for a rabbit by the tree would actually be useless.


    Since this was the case, then he would have to face them head-on!


    After obtaining the second heart, his strength had skyrocketed.


    In addition, he had just broken through to the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm, his body was filled with Blood Qi, and his passive Invincible Aura had increased after killing A¡¯RixI.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng no longer concealed his aura, and his terrifying killing intent swept out in all directions like a tidal wave.


    He was dressed in white, and a bizarre avatar appeared behind him.


    The moment Zhou Feng¡¯s bizarre avatar appeared, a crack appeared in the originally dim sky.


    It was unknown when the originally blurry avatar had become like this.


    It was as if an emperor crusading against 10,000 worlds was standing behind Zhou Feng. He wore a nine-dragon crown, held a longsword in his hand, and wore a dragon robe with 10,000 dragons imprinted on it.


    His aura was as if he was personally riding a chariot. There were also countless soldiers and horses around him. Although these soldiers and horses were only phantoms, they were still very blurry.


    However, coupled with the sound of the war drums, it was as if thousands of soldiers and horses were galloping. It made the stars and moon dim and caused the sky to crack.


    Even Zhou Feng himself did not expect this terrifying aura.


    When did his aura transform to such a degree?


    ¡°Run!¡±


    ¡°Quickly!¡±


    The terrifying avatar instantly scared the three Demons silly.


    The three Demons looked at each other with great tacit understanding and instantly flew in three different directions.


    Such speed and decisiveness were something Zhou Feng did not expect.


    ¡®Why did they suddenly run away? This isn¡¯t right!?¡¯


    ¡°Don¡¯t run!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction was fast, and he caught up with a Demon at random.


    When the Demon realized that Zhou Feng was chasing after him, he burned his Demon body and drew a bloody shadow.


    It disappeared into the horizon in front of Zhou Feng¡¯s dumbfounded eyes.


    The other two Demons did the same. They ran so fast that Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t react in time.


    ¡°What¡­ What is this?¡±


    Zhou Feng had never experienced something like this before.


    He had been fully prepared and even held his breath to enjoy a good battle. Yet, at that moment, it was as if he had hit cotton with all his strength. It made him extremely uncomfortable.


    From Zhou Feng¡¯s perception, he wasn¡¯t a match against the three Demons in a group battle.


    Originally, he had planned to stimulate his potential under such pressure.


    If he risked his life to slaughter another Demon, then he would have another chance to pick a new passive skill.


    Although he might very well be killed in the end, he would have a chance to be reborn.


    It was not that bad!


    Surprisingly, these three Demons immediately fled upon seeing the strange avatar behind him.


    They had fled so decisively that Zhou Feng was unable to test his strength.


    ¡°Human Emperor? You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    However, a decaying aura tore through the surrounding space and crossed over in the next moment.


    ¡°Not good! It¡¯s a Divine Ability expert!¡±


    Zhou Feng, who was in a daze, also reacted.


    This aura definitely belonged to a Demon King.


    He had to escape!


    Although he had a chance to be reborn, he was still lacking when facing a Divine Ability expert.


    Wasting a chance to be reborn like this was not what he had hoped for.


    As such, Zhou Feng withdrew his aura and charged toward Heavenly Star City¡¯s direction.

 Chapter 257 - The Reverends Ideology

    Chapter 257 The Reverend¡¯s Ideology


    When he sensed that decaying and powerful aura, Zhou Feng made a prompt decision. He charged toward Heavenly Star City¡¯s direction.


    This was clearly an old monster, and he was no match at all.


    Under such circumstances, fleeing was naturally the most cost-effective method.


    Even though he had never cultivated any speed-type technique, he was astonishingly fast due to his powerful body and various passive skills.


    In addition, that decaying aura seemed to be worried about something.


    Zhou Feng left the Demons¡¯ territory in an instant.


    ¡®Letting me go on purpose? What are you worried about?¡¯


    Looking at the Demons¡¯ territory, Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    Although he had successfully escaped, Zhou Feng was not very satisfied with this outcome.


    According to his original plan, he should have killed a few more Demons so that he could draw a few more passive skills.


    However, if he returned to the Demons¡¯ territory to kill Demons, that old monster would probably kill him the moment he took a step.


    That was purely a realm suppression. No matter how strong Zhou Feng was, he had no means to counter it. Even if he had a chance to be reborn, it would be a waste.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect it to end so quickly¡­¡±


    According to his original plan, he should have been training for a few months. When the time was right, he would return to Heavenly Star City.


    After staying in Heavenly Star City for a period, he would head toward the Eastern Land.


    Staying in Heavenly Star City all the time? Impossible!


    Whether it was for his future cultivation resources or for the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s other half, Zhou Feng could not stay in Heavenly Star City.


    He would return to Heavenly Star City only because he had a few acquaintances there and could obtain detailed information about this world.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll return to Heavenly Star City to recuperate. After that, I¡¯ll head toward the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage.¡±


    Since his training in the Demons¡¯ territory was forced to end, he quickly made a plan for the future.


    First, he would go back to Heavenly Star City, then to the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage.


    He had obtained the land of heritage¡¯s location from the Human Emperor Ring.


    Although he didn¡¯t know what the land of heritage had become after so many years, he should go and take a look.


    After doing so, he would head toward the Eastern Land as it was a holy land for cultivators from the information he had gathered.


    Every cultivator with potential would try to head to the Eastern Land to train.


    There were countless geniuses and monsters in the Eastern Land, as well as plenty of spiritual items and even the inheritances of many powerful figures.


    If you were a true genius, then entering the Eastern Land would be like a true dragon entering the sea.


    Only a place like the Eastern Land had the qualifications to raise a true dragon.


    Other areas were too barren and couldn¡¯t afford to raise a true dragon.


    This was an introduction to the Eastern Land.


    Zhou Feng was naturally not a salted fish, so he naturally had to go to the Eastern Land.


    ¡°As for the nirvana seed¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng began to consider whether he should move the nirvana seed to another place because he had previously left the nirvana seed in the Demons¡¯ territory.


    That place was remote enough that almost no one would set foot in it. And those Demons were usually like groundhogs, hiding in their nests.


    Therefore, this nirvana seed could be considered relatively safe and hidden.


    If he moved it, then where should he place it?


    Zhou Feng thought carefully and decided not to move the nirvana seed for the time being.


    He felt there would be a lot of dangers when he returned to Heavenly Star City. If he carried his second life with him, wouldn¡¯t he give his opponents to kill him twice?


    ¡°It¡¯s still safer to leave it here!¡±


    For some reason, Zhou Feng had become even more cautious after obtaining the passive Nirvana Rebirth.


    This was probably because he didn¡¯t want to waste the chance to be reborn. Many times, he would think of many things.


    Zhou Feng also had such habits in his previous life. For example, he had accumulated a large amount of resources while playing the game. He had been frugal the entire time. He hadn¡¯t used any of the resources until he passed the game.


    Just as Zhou Feng was carefully making his future plans¡­


    Heavenly Star City had undergone a huge change. The members of the Southern Sea Dragons had been ambushed in the City Lord¡¯s mansion and were seriously injured.


    Moreover, they were direct descendants of the Southern Sea Dragon Clan.


    This was a huge matter!


    The Dragon Clan was one of the few races in the world that could contend with the human


    race.


    The dragons were generally strong and rare, so they were extremely protective of their own.


    Now that the members of the Dragon Clan had met with an accident in Heavenly Star City, the Southern Sea Dragons would definitely not let this matter rest.


    The Southern Sea was not too far from Heavenly Star City. They only needed to cross a few thousand miles to reach Heavenly Star City.


    This was nothing to cultivators.


    ¡°Who do you think is so bold?¡±


    ¡°Do you even need to guess? It¡¯s naturally the Green Lotus Sect!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! The Holy Maiden of the Green Lotus Sect seems to have been in Heavenly Star City for a long time!¡±


    ¡°How do you think the City Lord will handle this matter?¡±


    The assassination attempt against the members of the South Sea Dragon Clan was the hottest topic throughoutHeavenly Star City, and almost everyone believed that this matter was related to the Green Lotus Sect.


    After all, the relationship between the Green Lotus Sect and the Dragon Clan was not very good. It could even be described as the relationship between fire and water.


    As for why it was not good, the reason was very simple.


    The Green Lotus Sect was a humanist sect, and they did not treat the other races well. They had even developed various methods to enslave the other races.


    Even the powerful dragons were only powerful slaves in the eyes of Reverend Green Lotus, the Sect Leader.


    Don¡¯t think that the Reverend Green Lotus was just an individual. In fact, Reverend Green Lotus had many supporters.


    These sects had inherited and shared the first Human Emperor¡¯s sentiments.


    It was also because of this that Heavenly Star City¡¯s residents did not need to suspect anything


    The Green Lotus Sect must be behind the assassination attempt.


    Just as everyone was discussing this matter enthusiastically, a loud sound rang out from the sky.


    A green lotus rose up out of thin air, causing the entire world to instantly change color.


    Following that, countless runic chains sealed off the surroundings. Green Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise¡ªthese four sacred beasts took turns to appear.


    After that, a series of dragon roars echoed. However, these dragon roars sounded rather miserable at this moment.


    ¡°Holy Maiden Green Lotus! You dare?¡±


    ¡°It seems that your Dragon Clan is used to being arrogant! To think you¡¯d ask such a stupid question!¡±


    There was a trace of disdain in Holy Maiden Green Lotus¡¯ voice.


    Following that, the fluctuations in the surroundings became more and more terrifying


    They attacked! They really attacked!


    The Green Lotus Sect and the Southern Sea Dragons had actually made a move?


    This caught everyone off guard. The location of the battle between the two sides happened to be not far from Heavenly Star City.


    ¡°This¡­ What should we do?¡±


    ¡°This is a battle between two Divine Ability experts! It won¡¯t affect Heavenly Star City, right?¡±


    ¡°Why does it sound like the Southern Sea Dragon is at a disadvantage?¡±


    ¡°Too terrifying! The Green Lotus Sect is indeed worthy of being a great sect that has existed for tens of thousands of years!¡±


    The violent shockwaves even stirred up Heavenly Star City¡¯s defensive formation.

 Chapter 258 - Pure Strength Suppression

    Chapter 258 Pure Strength Suppression


    Regarding the battle between Holy Maiden Green Lotus and the Southern Sea Dragon expert, the experts of Heavenly Star City acted as if they didn¡¯t see it and didn¡¯t make a move to stop it.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that my Green Lotus Sect launched a sneak attack on your Dragon Clan?


    ¡°Today, I¡¯ll let your Dragon Clan see if my Green Lotus Sect needs to launch a sneak attack!¡± Holy Maiden Green Lotus said coldly.


    It turned out that after something happened to the direct descendants of the Southern Sea Dragons, they immediately blamed the Green Lotus Sect. After all, even the humans thought the same.


    The Southern Sea Dragons even believed that Holy Maiden Green Lotus was the one who had attacked.


    Holy Maiden Green Lotus didn¡¯t tolerate that, so she blocked them at the gate and attacked.


    ¡°You!¡±


    ¡°What do you mean ¡®you¡¯! Southern Sea Dragons? I gave you some face and addressed you as someone from the Dragon Clan, but you really can¡¯t see the truth?


    ¡°The purest of your bloodlines are only mixed-breed dragons in my eyes!¡±


    At that moment, Holy Maiden Green Lotus looked like a big sister of the underworld. Her domineering words stammered the Dragon King on the opposite side and rendered him speechless.


    ¡°Damn it! You win this time!¡±


    This battle ended with Holy Maiden Green Lotus winning


    Although the Southern Sea Dragons were powerful and a dog-like clan, they couldn¡¯t do much on land.


    Heavenly Star City would not stand up for them, and it was already quite good that they didn¡¯t join hands with Holy Maiden Green Lotus to deal with them.


    The ideology that those who were not of the same species had different hearts was still deeply rooted in the people¡¯s hearts.


    Even though the first Human Emperor had long since ceased to exist, this kind of ideology had not been eliminated.


    ¡°Hmph! Count me as the winner? I¡¯m afraid that your Dragon Clan still doesn¡¯t know. A new Human Emperor successor has appeared again!


    ¡°Your Dragon Clan better mind your own business first. Every Human Emperor loves wearing nine-dragon robes!¡±


    Holy Maiden Green Lotus also stopped. She didn¡¯t beat up the dog that had fallen into the water. Instead, she told the Dragon King the cruel news.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    The voice of the Dragon King instantly changed upon learning that a new Human Emperor successor had emerged.


    He didn¡¯t dare to stay any longer and ran away.


    It wasn¡¯t up to the Dragon King to remain calm. After all, back in the Human Emperors¡¯ golden era, they had also chased after the Dragon Clan and killed them.


    In short, the Human Emperors had chased after more than 10,000 races and killed them.


    The Dragon Clan¡¯s darkest part of history should be the nine-dragon robes of each generation of Human Emperors.


    Almost every generation of Human Emperors would kill nine true dragons and make the nine-dragon robes before ascending to the Human Emperor¡¯s throne.


    This was equivalent to the Human Emperor¡¯s test to prove that each generation of Human Emperors was not weaker than the previous generation.


    After all, those were nine pure-blooded true dragons!


    And each Human Emperor successor would kill nine true dragons.


    It was not that the Dragon Clan had never resisted, but the consequence of resisting was that even the ancestors of the Dragon Clan were captured, turning into the Humana Emperor Dragon Qi.


    It was an unbearable stain in the Dragon Clan¡¯s history.


    Even now, some ancient sects in the Central Plains had the habit of catching true dragons to pull their carriages.


    ¡°What? A Human Emperor successor has emerged?¡±


    ¡°Emerged again? How long has it been!?¡±


    ¡°This isn¡¯t a joke, right?¡±


    Holy Maiden Green Lotus¡¯ words scared the Southern Sea Dragon King and many people in Heavenly Star City.


    Although the Human Emperors had become history, their power was still firmly engraved in many people¡¯s minds.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what had happened in Heavenly Star City.


    After tidying up his things, he headed in the direction of Heavenly Star City.


    And because he didn¡¯t try to hide, the Bai clansmen immediately detected him.


    ¡°Is it him? Is it that person?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s that person!¡±


    ¡°Quickly! Do It!¡±


    The Bai clansmen that had been waiting for Zhou Feng to appear all had excited expressions on their faces finally.


    Their mission would be considered accomplished as long as they could capture him alive!


    The Bai clansmen were still under the impression that Zhou Feng was new to the Purple Mansion realm, so they didn¡¯t hide their intentions at all.


    After all, Zhou Feng was a mere vagabond cultivator who had only recently broken through to the Purple Mansion and didn¡¯t cultivate many techniques in the Bai clansmen¡¯s eyes.


    His strength was praiseworthy, but he would be unable to fight against four 5th Level Purple Mansion cultivators and four Purple Mansion spirit beasts.


    ¡°People of the Bai Clan?¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows upon realizing they were from the Bai Clan.


    ¡®Four 5th Level Purple Mansion cultivators and four Purple Mansion spirit beasts, huh?¡¯


    If this had happened before, Zhou Feng would have felt the pressure.


    But now, he really didn¡¯t feel any pressure at all.


    He casually punched out, and


    His two hearts began to beat simultaneously as he frantically circulated his Blood Qi and casually punched out.


    Instantly, a streak of Blood Qi, like a wild dragon, brought with it an unstoppable might as it smashed toward one of the people.


    The faces of the Bai clansmen immediately changed.


    Boom!


    Flesh and blood splattered everywhere. A 5th Level Purple Mansion cultivator didn¡¯t even have the chance to make a sound of resistance before he died.


    ¡°Such power! Is this really a 1st Level Purple Mansion cultivator?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! Flee! Split up and flee!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s casual attack had left an indelible shock in the Bai clansmen¡¯s hearts.


    ¡°This is f*king different from our intel!¡¯ ¡®Wasn¡¯t it said that this Zhou Feng had just entered the Purple Mansion realm? Didn¡¯t he rely on a sneak attack to injure our Young Master back in the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm!?


    ¡®Such strength, such might! Only someone at the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm should be able to unleash such power!¡¯


    ¡®No!¡¯


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s relaxed expression, his strength was probably far beyond that.


    ¡®A vagabond cultivator!? He is a monster! This is a true monster!


    ¡®Underestimated! Everyone in Heavenly Star City has underestimated this person.¡¯


    Such a person probably only needed a tiny bit of chance to soar above the nine heavens.


    It wasn¡¯t smart for the Bai Clan to offend this person. They had to resolve the misunderstanding immediately.


    ¡°Wait! This is probably,¡±


    Zhou Feng circulated his Blood Qi and showered that person with punches without waiting for him to finish.


    It was like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. Even those spirit beasts didn¡¯t have a chance to escape.


    All of them were blasted apart one by one!


    This was pure strength suppression!


    What¡¯s more, Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t manifested his avatar. Once the avatar appeared, these people probably wouldn¡¯t even be able to hold on for half a second.


    After cultivating hard for so long, he finally experienced what it was like to overpower others with brute strength.


    Compared to challenging someone of a higher level, Zhou Feng preferred overpowering his opponents.


    If only every battle after that could be like this


    ¡°Judging by my strength, I should be able to fight against a cultivator that has just broken through to the Divine Ability Realm!¡±


    Zhou Feng assessed his strength level.


    After obtaining the second heart, his strength had increased by leaps and bounds. He even felt that he could hold on against a Divine Ability cultivator for some time.


    ¡®How many Divine Ability cultivators does the Bai Clan have?¡¯ Zhou Feng wondered as he ensured the corpses remained corpses and plundered their belongings.


    Although his strength had increased a lot, he could not forget his good habits.

 Chapter 259 - The Southern Sea?

    Chapter 259 The Southern Sea?


    After briefly tidying up the scene, Zhou Feng continued walking forward.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Why does my mind feel uneasy the more I walk toward Heavenly Star City?¡¯


    This feeling was not an illusion but an extremely clear feeling.


    Zhou Feng trusted his intuition, but he had to make a trip to Star City.


    He had promised Li Rong that he would return and look for her before leaving Heavenly Star City again.


    Moreover, he still had a chance to be reborn.


    The danger shouldn¡¯t be too great!


    His only enemy seemed to be the Bai Clan, one of the four great clans in Heavenly Star City. The other forces basically posed no threat to him.


    At present, even the Bai Clan had to think twice before dealing with him.


    Zhou Feng reached Heavenly Star City again after a few days.


    Heavenly Star City was still as majestic as before, giving people a sense of peace.


    After staying in a chaotic place like the Demons¡¯ territory, Zhou Feng could feel the true meaning of human order.


    ¡°Zhou Feng? Could it be him?¡±


    ¡°Is he the successor of the Human Emperor that Holy Maiden Green Lotus mentioned?¡±


    ¡°At first glance, he does look a bit like him. I didn¡¯t expect that the successor of the Human Emperor would emerge from our Southern Border!¡±


    ¡°He is indeed worthy of being the successor of the Human Emperor!¡±


    Zhou Feng planned to sneak into Heavenly Star City, so he didn¡¯t expect to be recognized at the first moment.


    Moreover, he could feel many restless auras around him, and more gazes were fixed on him.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? The successor of the Human Emperor? What has happened!?¡¯


    This turn of events surprised Zhou Feng.


    He was a vagabond cultivator, so logically, they should have stopped paying attention to him after his brief disappearance.


    But looking at the situation, this didn¡¯t seem to have any effect.


    Zhou Feng decided that he didn¡¯t need to stay in Heavenly Star City any longer.


    When the time came, he would find a time to continue training in other big cities!


    But before that, he still had to meet Li Rong and the Qian father and daughter.


    Furthermore, he had to go to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion to clean up the inventory and ask if there was any follow-up news on the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Although he had failed to avoid the limelight, Zhou Feng did not care too much about it. In any case, if he was not wrong, this was his last time coming to Heavenly Star City.


    Many people saw Zhou Feng walking toward the inner city with an expressionless face, and heated discussions broke out.


    ¡°Is this person the successor of the Human Emperor?¡±


    ¡°He should be! After all, the Green Lotus Sect has verified it! You also know that Reverend Green Lotus is an ex-disciple of that sect in the Central Plains!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Only these lunatics would continue to study the Human Emperors tirelessly!¡±


    ¡°The times have changed now. The Human Emperors may have been the top figures back then, but now¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng had become a topic of discussion in Heavenly Star City largely because the Holy Maiden Green Lotus had revealed that fact.


    Almost every once in a while, a so-called successor of the Human Emperor would appear.


    Take note! The successor of the Human Emperor did not refer to one person in particular but a group of people.


    And the division was not too strict.


    But one thing was certain, all the successors of the Human Emperor would carry a trace of the first Human Emperor¡¯s destiny.


    This was the key factor in determining whether or not one was a successor of the Human Emperor.


    Destiny!


    This was an illusory thing that even Divine Ability experts could pry into.


    Nonetheless, it was something that all the major factions were pursuing.


    This kind of mysterious thing was only recorded in the records of those ancient sects.


    No one knew what these ancient factions were trying to do.


    In any case, as long as they knew, every time the successor of the Human Emperor appeared, it would stir up countless storms.


    Some people wanted to expunge the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny completely.


    Some people wanted to assist the person with the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny in pursuing the Dao and benefit in the process.


    Naturally, the myriad races were extremely against the so-called successor of the Human Emperor. Their lifetime goal was to find a way to kill the person with the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny.


    Now, Zhou Feng was caught in this whirlpool because he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, and his body carried a trace of the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny.


    This trace of the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny was the beginning of Zhou Feng¡¯s troubles.


    ¡°This way, please!¡±


    Zhou Feng entered a private room under the guidance of the maid of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    When he entered the city, the first thing he did was to head to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    sure


    Li Rong was still in the Li Clan, so he couldn¡¯t enter. Hence, he decided to meet her at the Heaven Treasure Pavilion.


    He could also take advantage of the time before Li Rong arrived to deal with some matters at the Heaven Treasure Pavilion.


    Elder Zheng rushed through the door and said, ¡°I haven¡¯t seen you for a while! You really gave me a big surprise!¡±


    Elder Zheng¡¯s expression was complicated.


    Initially, he had just wanted to invest in a young man with potential so that his clan would be more stable in the future.


    However, he didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to make such a big splash without uttering a single word.


    The successor of the Human Emperor!


    Elder Zheng was familiar with some insider information, so he didn¡¯t dare ask Zhou Feng to take care of his clan anymore.


    If Zhou Feng was involved in it, then his clan would be done for!


    ¡°What big surprise?¡± Zhou Feng was a little confused.


    ¡°Forget it. Anyway, you should be more careful in the future. There¡¯s also the follow-up to the Human Emperor Scripture. I already have news here!¡±


    Elder Zheng didn¡¯t want to say more than needed and just reminded Zhou Feng to be more careful.


    Given the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion¡¯s influence and resources, they found information about the Human Emperor Scripture. They had spent some effort, though, because few people paid attention to the Human Emperor Scripture, which couldn¡¯t be cultivated.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard about the Human Emperor Scripture.


    He did not care about other things.


    Anyway, other things did not concern him as long as he was not provoked.


    Zhou Feng did not care about the turmoil in the outside world at all, nor did he want to understand what was happening.


    However, as long as one provoked him, he would cut the Gordian Knot and squash his opponents!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude was as simple as thatstraightforward.


    Elder Zheng hesitated for a moment before divulging the location¡¯s information. ¡°It¡¯s located on an island in the Southern Sea. But that¡¯s the Southern Sea Dragons¡¯ territory. And you¡­¡±


    At the same time, he warned Zhou Feng because that was the Southern Sea Dragons¡¯ territory.


    And not long ago, the Southern Sea Dragons had suffered a great loss at Holy Maiden Green Lotus¡¯ hands.


    And then there was Zhou Feng¡¯s identity as the successor of the Human Emperor.


    If he were to go to the Southern Sea, it would be too dangerous!


    ¡®The Southern Sea?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not take Elder Zheng¡¯s words to heart. Instead, he looked at the map that Elder Zheng had taken out.


    The location on the map was actually in the same direction as the land of heritage that Zhou Feng had obtained from the Human Emperor Ring.


    ¡®Could it be the same place?¡¯


    If that were the case, he would have to make a trip to the Southern Sea regardless of whether it was dangerous or not.


    Since he was already cultivating the Human Human Emperor Scripture, there was no turning back. It was impossible to pick another cultivation technique.

 Chapter 260 - The Mean Li Xiang

    Chapter 260 The Mean Li Xiang


    ¡°Oh right! I¡¯ll give you all of these things! Feel free to give me a price!¡±


    Zhou Feng kept the map. He then took out a bunch of storage bags and handed them to Elder Zheng. It would be best if he could sell all of them today.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Elder Zheng tried to read Zhou Feng¡¯s expression but did not say anything.


    Anyway, he had already reminded him of what should be reminded. Whatever happened next had nothing to do with him.


    ¡°Oh right! These few spiritual artifacts are for you!¡±


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and took two spiritual artifacts out of his storage ring.


    These two low-grade spiritual artifacts were his spoils of war, but they were of little use to him.


    Still, they should be of some use to Elder Zheng


    After all, he didn¡¯t know when he would be able to return after leaving Heavenly Star City.


    Elder Zheng had helped him before, so Zhou Feng could use these two spiritual artifacts as a token of his goodwill.


    Perhaps Elder Zheng himself wouldn¡¯t be able to use them, but his juniors should.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Elder Zheng hesitated for a moment but accepted the spiritual artifacts in the end.


    After that, Zhou Feng waited for some time.


    He was in a hurry to sell his spoils of war, so they were not exchanged for many Spirit Stones, just for a few hundred thousand.


    Zhou Feng did not say anything about it as he considered all these items junk. He had long sorted out the useful items.


    He was already quite surprised that those pieces of junk that took up space could be exchanged for more than 100,000 Spirit Stones.


    For Zhou Feng, Spirit Stones were not that scarce.


    It was probably because cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture required different cultivation resources than ordinary people.


    After everything was settled, Li Rong also arrived at the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.


    Zhou Feng and Li Rong met again in a private room.


    Li Rong was a completely different person compared to before.


    Li Rong had been as pure as clear water in the past, and her every action would reveal a childish air. When she looked at Zhou Feng, she would occasionally reveal a silly smile.


    However, she appeared a little calm and gave off an austere air right now. Her hair and clothes fluttered in the wind, and her face betrayed the temperament of a noble. It was as if she had grown up overnight.


    ¡°Big Brother Zhou?¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡±


    It was still the same simple conversation from before.


    Li Rong could not help but laugh at that familiar one-word answer.


    To be honest, Li Rong had indeed grown up quite a bit during this period.


    This was a result of achieving some results, the determination to cultivate seriously, and the pressure from her clan.


    Ever since Li Rong began to consume the clan¡¯s precious cultivation resources, some clansmen treated her with malice.


    That was something she had never experienced before.


    She was the Li Clan¡¯s pearl, yet she was the target of so much malice. And this was only because Li Rong occupied some cultivation resources.


    At the same time, some rumors pertaining to Zhou Feng and Li Rong started to circulate.


    That kind of pressure was a nightmare for a girl who had yet to experience the world.


    The so-called familial love was only built on the premise of not fighting with them for cultivation resources.


    Under such circumstances, coupled with Li Manya¡¯s teachings, Li Rong finally faced reality.


    Regarding this, the Li Clan¡¯s patriarch was gratified.


    The previous Li Rong had been too naive and hated conflict, but it was not too late for her to wake up now.


    Zhou Feng was silent for a while, but he still said what he wanted to say, ¡°I¡¯m leaving Heavenly Star City.¡±


    Li Rong immediately replied, ¡°I know!¡±


    Both sides fell silent again because they did not know what to say this time.


    Zhou Feng might have some good feelings toward Li Rong, but only some good feelings. He didn¡¯t want to give the wrong impression.


    Compared to Li Rong¡¯s clan background, Zhou Feng could be considered to be penniless.


    No matter if it was cultivation resources or anything else, Li Rong had the Li Clan behind her, so her cultivation path would definitely be smoother than following him.


    Moreover, romantic feelings weren¡¯t what he wanted.


    Pursuing longevity was Zhou Feng¡¯s goal.


    Although Zhou Feng chanted that in his heart, he did not know why he felt a little guilty when facing Li Rong, who was staring at him closely.


    Li Rong didn¡¯t avert her eyes this time. She was looking at him with an extremely pure gaze.


    Zhou Feng pretended to lower his head and took out the Death Substitution Gu. ¡°I will give this to you.¡±


    ¡°This is?¡±


    Li Rong scrutinized the strange insect but did not take it.


    From its appearance, Li Rong felt that this was something extraordinary.


    ¡°This is a Death Substitution Gu. It can save your life in times of crisis. Take it,¡± Zhou Feng casually explained. Li Rong still did not take it and asked a question in return, ¡°What about you?¡±


    ¡°I have other methods, don¡¯t worry about me. Take it.¡±


    Although his words were not very convincing, this Death Substitution Gu was useless to Zhou Feng.


    He had the passive Nirvana Rebirth, and the Death Substitution Gu could not enter his body because he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Leng Maner had gifted the Death Substitution Gu to him, yet he now wanted to give it to Li Rong?


    Wasn¡¯t he a bit of a scumbag?


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    No one knew what Li Rong was thinking, but she accepted the Death Substitution Gu in the end.


    ¡°It¡¯s about time. I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    Zhou Feng could not stand this silent atmosphere, so he decided to leave after handing the Death Substitution Gu.


    It was better to leave Heavenly Star City and head to the Southern Sea as soon as possible.


    ¡°Let me send you off.¡±


    A faint smile suddenly appeared on Li Rong¡¯s face.


    That smile contained the meaning of not being able to refuse.


    He did not object, and the two slowly walked out of the private room.


    ¡°Yo! This is so romantic! You are finally willing to come out?¡±


    What Zhou Feng did not expect was that an unpleasant voice entered his ears the moment they stepped out.


    A group of people had unknowingly surrounded the private room.


    The leader was a woman, and behind her was a group of people who looked like they were watching a show.


    ¡°You look quite handsome! No wonder Li Rong gave you the Crystal Warm Jade!¡±


    Li Xiang approached him, her tone strange.


    This person looked a little similar to Li Rong. She looked smoking hot with seductive red lips and wore a gauze skirt, revealing large patches of snow-white skin. She gave off a very flirtatious feeling.


    The only pity was that her thin lips seemed a little harsh and mean.


    Zhou Feng glanced at Li Xiang indifferently and then observed Li Rong¡¯s reaction.


    Li Xiang ignored Li Rong and threatened Zhou Feng, ¡°What are you looking at? Don¡¯t look at her anymore! I came here just to tell you that if you know what¡¯s good for you, you¡¯ll hand over the Crystal Warm Jade!


    ¡°Otherwise, you will not be able to leave Heavenly Star City today!¡±

 Chapter 261 - Stirred Emotions

    Chapter 261 Stirred Emotions


    Zhou Feng had been wondering when the Li Clan would find trouble with him. After all, to a certain extent, he had ruined the Li Clan¡¯s reputation.


    Such large clans usually cared a lot about their reputation.


    However, he did not expect they would only come when he was about to leave Heavenly Star City.


    Moreover, they were indirect. It seemed that they were not targeting him but Li Rong.


    Although Li Xiang appeared mean and wanted to provoke his anger, Zhou Feng did not even spare her a glance. He only looked at Li Rong.


    Li Rong bit her lower lip lightly and then shook her head slightly. It seemed like she was going to bear the humiliation.


    Li Xiang observed Li Rong and immediately showed a trace of disdain. She became even more arrogant and continued to threaten Zhou Feng


    ¡°I say, does a bumpkin like you know the value of the Crystal Warm Jade?


    ¡°If you wear the Crystal Warm Jade and anything happens¡­¡± Li Xiang¡¯s appearance really made people very angry. ¡°She is deliberately provoking Zhou Feng!¡± ¡°I can see it too.¡±


    ¡°If Zhou Feng really made a move under such circumstances, then it would be natural for Li Xiang to counterattack on the spot!¡±


    Everyone could tell that Li Xiang¡¯s performance was too fake. It was obvious that she was provoking Zhou Feng to attack her.


    One had to know that the Li Clan hadn¡¯t attacked Zhou Feng before because his background was too inferior.


    The dignified Li Clan deliberately targeting a vagabond cultivator?


    If this were to spread, the Li Clan¡¯s reputation would be lost entirely.


    Unlike some clans, the Li Clan was still a very traditional aristocratic clan. They basically disdained people who weren¡¯t of the same status.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had been so weak that he did not even intend to target the Li Clan.


    But now, Zhou Feng had suddenly become the successor of the Human Emperor. If the Li Clan were to make a move now, it would not be considered as bullying the weak.


    Simply put, aristocratic clans like the Li Clan were a rare oddity.


    No matter what they did, they were very concerned about their status and background.


    They would not take the initiative to bully the weak. Attacking the weak was simply an insult to the Li Clan.


    This mentality was probably similar to how an elephant would not be angry with an ant.


    Of course, if an ant took the initiative to provoke an elephant under normal circumstances, the elephant would not need to take action personally. The other forces attached to the Li Clan would handle it properly.


    Li Rong was aware of this point, so she kept silent. She did not want to give Li Xiang any excuses.


    II


    11


    Since Li Rong did not respond, Zhou Feng was naturally not in a hurry. He just watched Li Xiang¡¯s performance indifferently.


    Just this level of teasing was not enough to stir up his emotions.


    Zhou Feng did not care much about what others thought.


    All along, he had always been doing things his way. Everything he did depended entirely on his will and would not be affected by other factors.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng let Li Xiang perform there.


    He was like a passerby standing by the roadside and watching a monkey show.


    As for Li Rong, she was also used to Zhou Feng¡¯s demeanor. She imitated Zhou Feng and watched Li Xiang perform there without saying a word.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    Li Xiang looked at Zhou Feng and Li Rong¡¯s indifferent expressions. Something was wrong with this scenario!


    Why did it end like this?


    According to her previous assumption, Zhou Feng should have been humiliated and forced to make a move.


    Even if Zhou Feng held back and did not make a move, he should have been furious by now.


    This should have caused Li Rong¡¯s emotions to be unstable as well.


    This was a little different from what she had expected!


    But things had already come to this point, and Li Xiang had no way out.


    She had to take back the Crystal Warm Jade! This should be one of the few opportunities to get her hands on the Crystal Warm Jade.


    Actually, Li Xiang was behaving like that because of the Crystal Warm Jade on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    This was originally Li Rong¡¯s personal item. As long as Li Rong was unwilling, no one would be able to snatch away the Crystal Warm Jade.


    However, by chance, Li Xiang had discovered that Li Rong had given the Crystal Warm Jade to Zhou Feng.


    This way, the situation would turn for the better.


    Snatching the Crystal Warm Jade from Zhou Feng was much easier than snatching it from Li Rong. It was precisely because of this that Li Xiang was so deliberately trying to provoke Zhou Feng.


    Then she could carry out the follow-up plan.


    But who knew that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t fall for this trick at all?


    This was too awkward!


    Li Xiang had no other choice but to play her next card.


    ¡°As expected! You and your seductive mother are the same! You like to give the clan¡¯s things to outsiders!¡±


    Originally, Li Xiang didn¡¯t want to play this card.


    Saying such words was very risky because this involved some of the patriarch¡¯s private matters.


    Nonetheless, Li Xiang went all out for the sake of obtaining the Crystal Warm Jade.


    Sure enough, Li Rong, who had been able to remain silent all this time, almost couldn¡¯t hold herself back when her mother was mentioned.


    An ice-cold aura emanated from Li Rong¡¯s body as she glared at Li Xiang.


    Li Rong¡¯s mother was a taboo in her heart, and she wouldn¡¯t allow anyone to speak ill of her.


    ¡°Say it again?¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s face was ice cold, and the Spiritual Qi within her body surged. ¡°Say it? Don¡¯t tell me you still dare to make a move here?¡±


    Li Xiang¡¯s heart actually relaxed upon seeing Li Rong¡¯s livid expression.


    She was most afraid that the enemy wouldn¡¯t react. As long as there was a reaction, everything could be manipulated.


    One had to know that Li Xiang hadn¡¯t come alone. She had brought along a few Li clansmen, and they were all Purple Mansion cultivators that had unlocked their innate divine abilities.


    Also, this was the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, where no one dared to make a move here.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Zhou Feng frowned. Sensing that Li Rong¡¯s emotions were somewhat out of control, he immediately pulled her and left.


    Li Xiang had come prepared. Continuing to pester them here was a waste of time.


    ¡°As expected of two adulterers! Aren¡¯t you going to hide it now?¡±


    Li Xiang was a little anxious due to Zhou Feng¡¯s actions.


    She could not let Li Rong leave now. It was not easy to get Li Rong¡¯s emotions stirred up.


    Therefore, Li Xiang¡¯s mouth immediately became poisonous.


    She kept calling them adulterers. That mean mouth of hers made people want to take action directly.


    However, taking action here was practically an idiotic act.


    Many people were watching, and they were at the center of Heavenly Star City. Once they took action, they would only be caught. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that! To think I would be able to watch such a show!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s a conflict within the Li Clan? Such a scene is really rare!¡±


    A big fight like this was simply rare.


    The people who were originally watching and eating melons did not expect to eat such big melons!

 Chapter 262 - Disliked Talking

    Chapter 262 Disliked Talking


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng maintained his expressionless face as he pulled Li Rong toward the outer city.


    Li Rong, who was in an angry state, did not struggle. Instead, she allowed herself to be pulled away.


    When Li Xiang saw this, she was a little anxious. If she let Li Rong go just like this, then everything that she had done before would be in vain.


    Moreover, she might have offended the patriarch, so Li Xiang directly walked forward to block Zhou Feng¡¯s path.


    But who knew that Zhou Feng was waiting for Li Xiang to do so?


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng had no intention of stopping at all. His aura suddenly surged, his Blood Qi churned, and his invincible avatar flickered.


    ¡°What!? You dare to make a move!¡±


    Li Xiang only felt a suffocating aura descending from the sky. It was as if her entire body was trapped in a whirlpool, with no chance to struggle at all.


    Kacha!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s powerful body lightly touched Li Xiang¡¯s body, and a bone-breaking sound echoed.


    Following that, her entire body was infused with pure power.


    Li Xiang just wanted to stop Zhou Feng, yet she was suddenly sent flying in the spectators¡¯ eyes.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying aura astonished the crowd.


    ¡°Pfft!¡±


    Li Xiang instantly collapsed, blood spraying all over the ground as her right hand exploded. If it weren¡¯t for the light shield protecting Li Xiang, her entire body would have exploded instead of her right hand, leading to instant death.


    Zhou Feng let go of Li Rong¡¯s hand at this time, and his tone was neither salty nor indifferent. ¡°What are you doing? Trying to frame me? Everyone witnessed what happened just now. I didn¡¯t make a move.¡±


    Then, he walked step by step in front of Li Xiang


    ¡°You! You actually dared to make a move!?¡±


    ¡°You had the guts to make a move against a Li descendant?¡±


    At this time, the Li clansmen finally reacted.


    Zhou Feng had attacked, so the atmosphere at the scene instantly became tense.


    No one had expected that Zhou Feng would be so bold in such a situation.


    Not only did he attack, but he also retaliated by saying that Li Xiang was the instigator.


    Look at Li Xiang¡¯s miserable appearance! She had almost lost half her life! Did this look like an instigator!?


    ¡°You¡­ You¡­¡±


    Li Xiang looked like she had just survived a disaster.


    It was too terrifying!


    Zhou Feng had suddenly burst out with his aura, and it directly suppressed her until she was suffocated.


    Li Xiang had only felt that kind of helplessness when facing a few monsters of her clan.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t Zhou Feng just break through to the Purple Mansion realm!?


    ¡®Why? Why is his strength so terrifying!?


    ¡®And how dare he! He made a move in front of everyone! I am a Li descendant, yet a vagabond cultivator attacked me!?¡¯


    The Li Clan didn¡¯t have to worry about their face this time. They could directly make a move against Zhou Feng.


    Was this person crazy?


    ¡°I asked you if you¡¯re trying to frame me. Why didn¡¯t you answer me? Are you feeling guilty?¡±


    Zhou Feng maintained his calm expression.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Suddenly, Li Xiang cried out in pain.


    It turned out that Zhou Feng¡¯s foot had stepped on Li Xiang¡¯s left hand, crushing and pulverizing her bone.


    ¡°Oh! I¡¯m sooo sorry! I didn¡¯t see your hand just now!¡±


    Zhou Feng remained calm as Li Xiang wailed in agony. He said that he was sorry but only lifted his foot until the hand was crippled.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm tone complemented his every move.


    All of a sudden, everyone felt a chill down their spines.


    How could this person be so arrogant!?


    The viciousness lacing his words petrified a lot of people.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Li Xiang experienced excruciating pain, and the Li clansmen were unable to hold themselves back.


    They could not let Zhou Feng continue like this. The Li Clan¡¯s reputation would be lost if they didn¡¯t teach him a lesson.


    In the next second, however, everyone shut their mouths because a figure slowly appeared in the air.


    Invincible Avatar!


    This was the name Zhou Feng gave for his avatar¡­


    This avatar was directly related to his passive Invincible Aura. Every time the passive skill accumulated a layer of aura, this avatar would have corresponding changes.


    Zhou Feng had defeated plenty of people, so his aura had reached a certain level.


    As a result, his avatar started to change.


    This was the first change-a scene of an emperor personally killing countless enemies.


    At that moment, everyone seemed to have been pulled into a battlefield, and the oppressive atmosphere tensed them up.


    Zhou Feng repeated the same question after using the avatar to stun everyone. ¡°I¡¯m asking if you¡¯re framing me. Answer me.¡±


    His tone was still calm, but Li Xiang was afraid.


    She was truly afraid!


    When Zhou Feng released the avatar, Li Xiang knew that she had kicked an iron plate.


    Too strong! When this avatar appeared! Everyone present was stunned!


    Zhou Feng did not even need to make a move. Just by relying on his aura, he might be able to crush Li Xiang bit by bit. ¡°I was being blackmailed just now! I¡¯m sorry! I just didn¡¯t think it through!¡±


    Under the strong desire to survive, Li Xiang instantly changed her stance.


    A look of repentance appeared on her face. It looked like she was extremely regretful.


    At the same time, she was extremely humble, and tears streamed down her face.


    When a delicate beauty like her acted like this, many people sympathized with her.


    Previously, Li Xiang had been hateful, and her words were extremely mean. On the contrary, Zhou Feng had not uttered a single word in response.


    However, at this moment, the person that everyone sympathized with was Li Xiang.


    Li Xiang had provoked him first, and this was Zhou Feng¡¯s counterattack.


    Li Xiang¡¯s acting was too good. Her slightly furrowed brows, coupled with her humble appearance, easily stirred up everyone¡¯s sympathy for the weak.


    If it were someone who had not witnessed the whole thing, they would think Zhou Feng was bullying a feeble beauty.


    ¡°What kind of technique is this?¡±


    Surprisingly, a trace of sympathy rose in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart, but he immediately snuffed it out.


    Therefore, he thought that Li Xiang had used some kind of method.


    If Li Xiang had not used some special method, he would not have felt any sympathy.


    ¡°I-I don¡¯t know!¡±


    Tears fell from Li Xiang¡¯s eyes, and her body slowly squirmed backward, looking extremely aggrieved.


    Seeing that Li Xiang was still putting on an act, Zhou Feng did not say anything.


    He just released his terrifying aura, constricting Li Xiang bit by bit.


    ¡°No! Save me! Save me!¡±


    At this time, Li Xiang felt that her neck was being strangled, and she could not breathe.


    A trace of panic flashed in her eyes.


    ¡®Crazy! This person is crazy! He really intends to kill me!¡¯


    Li Xiang already felt a chilly killing intent locked onto her. If she did not give Zhou Feng a proper answer, he would not hesitate to put her out of her misery once and for all.


    Moreover, he would not say a single word when he made his move.

 Chapter 263 - Li Yi

    Chapter 263 Li Yi


    ¡°How dare you!?¡±


    When they saw Li Xiang¡¯s miserable appearance, the Li clansmen couldn¡¯t help themselves. If they let Zhou Feng continue like this, the Li Clan would really lose face.


    A Li Elder who was hiding in the shadows finally jumped out.


    He was a skeletal-like old man with fluttering clothes, a white beard, and white hair.


    His arrival temporarily suppressed Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar.


    ¡®Divine Ability realm? He should be an initial-stage Divine Ability cultivator¡­¡¯


    When this old man appeared, Zhou Feng¡¯s attention was instantly diverted.


    This old man was in the Divine Ability realm, but the oppressive feeling that he emitted was not as terrifying as the Divine Ability experts that Zhou Feng had encountered previously. This is probably because his strength had increased, and his avatar had undergone its first transformation.


    In fact, the Li Clan had sent Li Xiang to look for trouble with Li Rong to test Zhou Feng.


    After all, Zhou Feng was the successor of the Human Emperor. He had a special identity.


    There was a legend throughout the agesevery successor of the Human Emperor had the possibility to obtain the first Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure.


    It was said that the first Human Emperor had hidden a treasure trove with all the items he had collected before his death.


    The so-called secret treasure was naturally not worth mentioning to some truly ancient clans.


    That was because the truly valuable items had been divided up long ago. The remaining items were not of interest to those ancient forces at all.


    However, the Li Clan was interested.


    Although the Li Clan seemed to be very prosperous here, this was only a border city in the Southern Border.


    Not to mention the Li Clan, even the City Lord¡¯s mansion could not resist the temptation of the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure.


    Logically, many people observed Zhou Feng from the shadows. It was precisely because of this situation that the Li Clan had sent an Elder.


    Under normal circumstances, this Elder would have never appeared, but he could no longer tolerate this situation.


    ¡®Divine Ability realm¡­ I haven¡¯t fought with a Divine Ability cultivator yet!¡¯


    Zhou Feng glanced at Li Yi while his aura was still suppressing Li Xiang. His face remained calm.


    Obviously, Li Yi did not scare Zhou Feng.


    So what if he was a Divine Ability expert? Would he dare to make a move in Heavenly Star City?


    Technically, Zhou Feng had not made a move here.


    Li Xiang had been provoking from the beginning, and he did not use physical means to attack her.


    Although Li Yi was a Divine Ability expert, it would be a feat to defeat Zhou Feng quickly.


    That was especially so as they were in Heavenly Star City, where one would have to weigh their actions carefully before doing anything


    ¡°Junior, that¡¯s enough! Don¡¯t force me to bully the weak!¡±


    Li Yi frowned, his face betraying a hint of dissatisfaction.


    From his point of view, he had already given Zhou Feng face.


    However, Zhou Feng did not seem to know what was good for him. After his arrival, Zhou Feng was still as calm as ever.


    Who gave him the courage to do this?


    He was facing a Divine Ability expert! He was a Li Elder, yet there wasn¡¯t the slightest change in Zhou Feng¡¯s actions!?


    He really didn¡¯t know what was good for him!


    Li Yi had heard rumors pertaining to Zhou Feng. Everyone called him either a madman or a lunatic, and they said he acted based on his circumstances and his needs.


    Today, Li Yi witnessed for himself that these rumors were true.


    Zhou Feng looked at Li Yi and said calmly, ¡°Following your logic, the strong can bully the weak at will, right? Well, she is a weakling.¡±


    In this world, laws and such were only the rules set by the strong.


    The difference in individual strength was too great, after all.


    Therefore, if a weakling recklessly mocked a strong person, it was equivalent to courting death.


    In other words, Li Xiang was courting death. If she hadn¡¯t provoked him, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have made a move at all.


    Such an explanation was very compatible with everyone¡¯s worldview.


    A weakling actually dared to provoke a powerhouse. This was completely self-inflicted.


    ¡°Also, I¡¯m clearly the victim. This person deliberately bumped into me just now. I suspect that she was trying to do something to me.¡±


    In order to help Li Rong, Zhou Feng, who would stay silent most of the time, also displayed outstanding eloquence.


    He would soon leave, so it was possible he would never see Li Rong again.


    And in order to help him, Li Rong had to bear a lot of pressure on the clan side.


    That was why he wanted to help Li Rong as much as possible before he left.


    Zhou Feng would let everyone know that Li Rong was not easy to bully.


    Li Rong had a strong backer now. If Li Rong was wronged, he would naturally take revenge.


    ¡°Oh? Is that so? Do you know that she is a member of the Li Clan? Do you know what you are doing right now?¡±


    The dissatisfaction on Li Yi¡¯s face had already turned into anger, and he immediately lowered his voice.


    ¡°Also, you are not allowed to make a move in the inner city. Are you aware of this? I am doing this for your own good! The city guards should be here soon!¡±


    Li Yi was already a little angry at Zhou Feng¡¯s accusation. This junior¡¯s ability to twist the truth was amazing.


    Moreover, he was still so arrogant even under such circumstances.


    ¡°The Li Clan? I know. But what does this have to do with her calling Li Rong and me adulterers?


    ¡°Also, I didn¡¯t make a move. I was just cultivating. I¡¯ve never heard that people are not allowed to cultivate in Heavenly Star City!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change as he spoke in a serious manner.


    Such attitude! Such tone!


    He rendered the onlookers speechless.


    ¡°This is really tough! That¡¯s an Elder of the Li Clan!¡±


    ¡°To think he could spout nonsense in such a serious manner! Coupled with this face, this is really¡­¡±


    ¡°So ruthless! I just don¡¯t know how it will end for him.¡±


    II


    11


    Seeing that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t willing to back down even half a step and wasn¡¯t mincing his words, Li Yi instantly laughed out of anger.


    In Heavenly Star City, no one had ever been able to disregard the Li Clan¡¯s might like this.


    The Li Clan was an extremely traditional aristocratic clan. The clansmen had their pride and wouldn¡¯t attack people who weren¡¯t on the same level. However, they placed great importance on the clan¡¯s reputation and might.


    Zhou Feng was trampling on the Li Clan¡¯s prestige right now.


    But even so, Li Yi didn¡¯t plan to attack. He couldn¡¯t afford to lose face by dealing with a Purple Mansion junior.


    Or rather, he could not sneak-attack him. There were so many people around. Even if Li Yi wanted to attack, he was worried about his clan¡¯s reputation.


    Although Li Yi couldn¡¯t attack Zhou Feng, he could use other methods.


    ¡°Li Rong!¡±


    Li Yi called out Li Rong¡¯s name. His meaning was very simple; he wanted Li Rong to persuade Zhou Feng.


    In essence, this matter could be considered as Zhou Feng standing up for Li Rong. If Li Rong opened her mouth, this matter might be quickly settled.


    Now that so many people were watching, the Li Clan would become a joke if this charade didn¡¯t come to an end.


    ¡®Where are the city guards? Why has it been so long? Why haven¡¯t they appeared? Don¡¯t those dogs usually come quickly?¡¯ Li Yi was already cursing the city guards in his heart.


    Normally, no matter what happened in the inner city, the city guards would rush over at the first moment. Why were they so slow? Were they swallowing feces?

 Chapter 264 - Finally Parting

    Chapter 264 Finally Parting


    When Li Rong heard Li Yi calling out to her, she also reacted.


    ¡°Big Brother Zhou, forget it. Let¡¯s go!¡±


    If this continued, Zhou Feng would not fare well.


    She was happy he had stood up for her, but he offended the entire Li Clan in the process. This matter was not worth it, no matter how she looked at it.


    ¡°Stop! This will be my farewell lesson to you!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not listen to Li Rong. Instead, he took this opportunity to instill some ideas into Li Rong


    ¡°When facing people who are trying to bully you, you must not show any mercy. If you show even the slightest hint of weakness, people will think that you are easy to bully.¡± As Zhou Feng spoke, his aura became more and more terrifying, and Li Xiang¡¯s body began to creak on the ground.


    He looked at Li Yi as he spoke.


    ¡°Also! You absolutely can not be led around! You must have your own way of doing things.


    ¡°Acting arrogantly? That¡¯s only because others think that your actions do not conform to their ideas.¡±


    This appeared to be a response as to why he was acting like this. It also seemed to be telling everyone that it was impossible to change his will.


    ¡°Of course, there must be a bottom line for everything you do. And you must have a backup plan! After all, your life is your most important asset! Don¡¯t you think so, oh great Li Clan?¡±


    Zhou Feng stared at Li Yi at the end of his speech.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Li Yi couldn¡¯t hold it in anymore. Zhou Feng was really arrogant, to the extent he preached to the Li Clan.


    ¡®Who do you think you are? Are you a monster like the Heavenly Star Patriarch? Do you have the capital to lecture?¡¯


    At that moment, Li Yi could no longer endure.


    A halo slowly appeared, and an aura that belonged to the Divine Ability realm pervaded the surroundings. ¡°Divine Ability: Gather Qi!¡¯ The Li Clan possessed a Spirit Stone vein, so all the divine abilities of the Li clansmen were related to Spiritual Qi.


    The divine ability that Li Yi evolved from his innate divine ability was also extremely simple¡ªit could only gather qi. To put it more simply, it could gather an astonishing amount of Spiritual Qi.


    This might sound ordinary, but there would be a leap-like transformation as long as it evolved into a divine ability.


    With Li Yi as the center, the halo that surrounded him was completely formed from Spiritual Qi.


    A wave of Spiritual Qi that was like a world-destroying catastrophe began to assault the surroundings.


    The powerful Spiritual Qi pierced through the nine heavens.


    As Li Yi¡¯s main target, Zhou Feng instantly felt the suffocating pressure.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    However, Zhou Feng did not avoid the attack. Instead, he faced it head-on, and his Invincible Avatar appeared once again!


    The avatar behind him pointed forward as if an emperor was giving the order to charge.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Li Xiang, who was already on the verge of death, immediately screamed and fainted.


    In the end, Zhou Feng did not kill her, but he did cripple her cultivation! He even destroyed all her meridians.


    If there were no accidents, Li Xiang would be an ordinary person for the rest of her life.


    Perhaps some people would label him as cruel.


    Crippling a person¡¯s cultivation just because of a disagreement!?


    However, Zhou Feng thought that this was a normal countermeasure. Li Xiang harbored malicious intentions from the start, clearly targeting Zhou Feng.


    In this cultivation-oriented world, after an extremely good-looking woman lost her cultivation ability, she would probably end up like this for the rest of her life.


    The best outcome would be for her to end up alone.


    The worst outcome would be to be sent to be a concubine of another large clan.


    Such punishment could be considered acceptable! ¡°Junior! You¡¯ve really angered me!¡± Li Yi was truly enraged now.


    At that moment, he no longer cared about bullying the weak. He only wanted to tear Zhou Feng apart. If such an arrogant person didn¡¯t suffer a few losses, he would think that this was the way of the world.


    ¡°Who dares to make a move in the inner city?¡±


    Surprisingly, the city guards had arrived when Li Yi¡¯s aura suppressed Zhou Feng.


    And it was a whole team of 12 people! Everyone wore armor, and their auras were linked together. They had even activated the Heavenly Star Formation as if they were ready to attack.


    Such a team of city guards could easily take down an ordinary Divine Ability expert with the help of the Heavenly Star Formation.


    After all, the Heavenly Star Formation had the Heavenly Star Tree as its core.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    The city guards¡¯ sudden arrival forced Li Yi to suppress his peak aura. He didn¡¯t dare to take action against the city guards.


    Once he took action, he would be the only one taken down. The inner city was the territory of the Heavenly Star Patriarch, an old Divine Ability expert that was on the verge of breaking through to the next realm.


    No one dared to go against the city guards in the inner city. What depressed Li Yi the most was the city guards¡¯ coincidental arrival. It really made people wonder if they were deliberately targeting him.


    After all, the timing was too good. One could help but be suspicious.


    ¡°City guards?¡±


    Even Zhou Feng felt that the city guards were helping him intentionally or unintentionally.


    It was a little obvious.


    Given the city guards¡¯ auras, they couldn¡¯t have just arrived.


    But why?


    The city guards represented the City Lord¡¯s faction, and the City Lord¡¯s faction was mostly at the behest of the Heavenly Star Patriarch.


    ¡°Why are you gathered here? Quickly disperse!¡±


    The city guards¡¯ might was terrifying, so the onlookers immediately dispersed. They did not dare to stay any longer, afraid that the city guards would catch them.


    ¡°Hmph! Take care of yourself! Bai Wuyi has already recovered and is preparing to cause trouble for you! The Green Lotus Sect won¡¯t let you off either!¡±


    Li Yi, who had calmed down, glanced coldly at Zhou Feng.


    In his opinion, Zhou Feng was currently in grave danger.


    Under such circumstances, he still did not know how to keep a low profile. So what if he was the successor of the Human Emperor?


    Was there a lack of successors?


    In the end, such a figure would only be able to stir up some small waves and would soon be forgotten by others.


    He did not need to be angry over such a person.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not take Li Yi¡¯s words to heart at all. He pulled Li Rong¡¯s hand and walked


    out.


    It was as if Li Rong had turned into a puppet, allowing him to pull her.


    Li Xiang remained unconscious on the ground.


    Fortunately, many Li clansmen were concerned about Li Xiang, so they brought her back to the Li Clan for treatment.


    ¡°This time, I really have to leave. I only hope that we can meet in the future.


    ¡°If you still have problems, then hide! Don¡¯t be so stubborn. When it¡¯s time to run, run!¡±


    Before Zhou Feng left, he seemed to have become a chatterbox, warning Li Rong a few times.


    When he uttered the words ¡®Don¡¯t be so stubborn¡¯, Li Rong suddenly laughed out loud.


    To think such words actually came out of Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth!


    They were not convincing at all!


    ¡°This is true! The reason I act so arrogantly is that I have a trump card! And it¡¯s not just one!


    ¡°So when it¡¯s time to keep a low profile, keep a low profile. When it¡¯s time to keep a high profile, keep a high profile!


    ¡°Also, if someone wants to scheme against you, but you don¡¯t know how to deal with it, then kill all your enemies!


    ¡°Anyway, this is definitely the best course of action!


    ¡°If you don¡¯t even know who might be targeting you, then just run away!¡±


    Li Rong did not say anything. She just listened to Zhou Feng¡¯s so-called experiential lecture in silence.

 Chapter 265 - Taking the Initiative to Attack

    Chapter 265 Taking the Initiative to Attack


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    After Zhou Feng said everything he needed to say, he bade farewell to Li Rong.


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Li Rong forced a smile.


    Li Rong did not try to force Zhou Feng to stay. From the moment she came into contact with him, she was very clear that he was a person whose will was difficult to change.


    In order to avoid any accidents, Zhou Feng did not drag his feet too much. He simply turned around and left. After all, love was only a part of life.


    The path of cultivation was his ultimate goal! Also, the longer he stayed in Heavenly Star City, the more dangerous the situation became. If Zhou Feng did not leave now, he might not be able to leave in the future. ¡°Charm +1!¡±


    When Zhou Feng turned around decisively and left, a message popped up on his skill panel.


    Zhou Feng was stunned. ¡®Charm +1? Which passive skill was triggered?¡¯


    Then, he recalled that he had obtained an utterly useless passive skill, the Amorous Prodigal Heart.


    Amorous Prodigal Heart: Your Charm +1! And every time you experience a relationship, your Charm will increase by 1 point! (Max: 10 points)!


    ¡°This counts as experiencing a relationship?


    ¡®But Li Rong and I did not seem to have a real relationship. How did the skill determine this?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little confused. He and Li Rong were not in a relationship, so how did this passive get triggered? ¡°This¡­¡±


    Although he couldn¡¯t figure it out, it consoled him that the passive skill added a bit of charm.


    He wouldn¡¯t lose out anyway!


    It was better not to overthink about it.


    His most important goal was to leave Heavenly Star City first.


    Originally, Zhou Feng wanted to meet the Qian father and daughter, but it was better not to meet them now.


    Given their strength, coming into contact with them now would only harm them.


    Zhou Feng had asked Li Rong to help the Qian father and daughter if it was possible.


    They were Zhou Feng¡¯s first followers, and he was more humane toward his own people.


    ¡°Big Yellow, come out!¡±


    Zhou Feng let out Big Yellow before leaving Heavenly Star City.


    Previously, the conditions didn¡¯t allow it, so he could only let Big Yellow hide.


    Big Yellow had been suffocating during that time.


    It was a good opportunity to let out Big Yellow. At the same time, he could use Big Yellow¡¯s acute sense of smell to detect his enemies.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation increased, he could no longer detect the enemy 100% by just using his soul perception. This was because many enemies could use techniques to hide their aura.


    Although one could conceal their aura with techniques, smell was not the same. As long as one passed by a certain place, there would be a smell left behind.


    Under such circumstances, the value of Big Yellow was displayed.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Just as Big Yellow was released, it barked at Zhou Feng. It even pounced on Zhou Feng in an attempt to lick his face.


    Its tail was like a propeller, swaying wildly.


    ¡°Alright, alright. Let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng knew that Big Yellow was expressing its dissatisfaction with him, so he comforted it for a while.


    Then, he swaggered out of Heavenly Star City with Big Yellow.


    ¡°Where is he?¡±


    ¡°He is heading out of the city. And it has been confirmed, he is indeed wearing a ring!¡±


    ¡°That ring is the one Young Master described!¡±


    ¡°Very good! This time, I will avenge myself!¡±


    Bai Wuyi was gnashing his teeth.


    Ever since Zhou Feng had defeated him in the mystic realm, Bai Wuyi had been looking for Zhou Feng for revenge almost every moment.


    At that time, he had been a little careless and couldn¡¯t use certain tricks in the mystic realm.


    Had they been outside, Bai Wuyi would not have been trounced.


    Moreover, Bai Wuyi now believed that Zhou Feng had stolen his opportunity.


    Zhou Feng had taken away the Human Emperor Ring that was originally in the City Lord¡¯s treasury.


    One had to know that Bai Wuyi had spent a lot of effort to obtain clues pertaining to the Human Emperor Ring. But for some unknown reason, the thief Zhou Feng had found out about it.


    He had snatched away the opportunity that belonged to him.


    ¡°The title of the successor of the Human Emperor originally belonged to me!¡±


    Every time he thought of this, the rage in Bai Wuyi¡¯s heart could not be suppressed.


    That¡¯s right! Bai Wuyi believed that Zhou Feng had obtained the Human Emperor¡¯s inheritance after getting his hands on the Human Emperor Ring.


    It was precisely because of this that he had become the successor of the Human Emperor, obtaining a trace of the Human Emperor¡¯s fate.


    ¡°Let¡¯s Go! Gather the Eagle Division immediately!¡±


    Bai Wuyi did not conceal his actions at all as he prepared to go look for trouble with Zhou Feng


    This was because the enmity between Zhou Feng and the Bai Clan was already public knowledge.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s actions were normal. It would be strange if Bai Wuyi did not go to find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    However, most people did not know that Bai Wuyi was preparing to snatch back the opportunity that belonged to him.


    Just like Bai Wuyi, many people were also planning to find trouble with Zhou Feng.


    It was fine if they couldn¡¯t find Zhou Feng before, but now that Zhou Feng actually dared to appear, they couldn¡¯t let him go.


    The Green Lotus Sect was one of those parties.


    The Green Lotus Sect naturally wouldn¡¯t allow such a wild Human Emperor successor to wander around outside.


    Regardless of anything else, they would first bring him back to the sect and then slowly discuss other matters.


    Finally, it was the Li Clan.


    Zhou Feng had just ruthlessly slapped the Li Clan in the face. Naturally, the Li Clan wouldn¡¯t let off Zhou Feng, and they didn¡¯t hide it at all, directly sending a team to block Zhou Feng outside the city.


    ¡°This lineup is really big!¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that a vagabond cultivator could stir up such a big storm!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s such a pity for such a genius!¡±


    ¡°If he had a big faction backing him, Zhou Feng¡¯s achievements would probably be limitless!¡±


    IIII


    The spectators in Heavenly Star City began to express their opinions when they saw such a large lineup.


    If Zhou Feng had been more tactful, hadn¡¯t offended so many people and acted like a lunatic, and had agreed to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan, the current situation would have been completely different.


    Unfortunately, these enmities had already formed. It was a pity for such a genius to lose his life.


    However, it was unlikely that anyone in the entire Heavenly Star City would imagine that Zhou Feng was currently preparing to hunt his pursuers.


    Or rather, he was taking the initiative to lure these people into attacking him.


    Why must he wait for others to find trouble with him? And not take the initiative to attack?


    Zhou Feng was tired of being passive all the time, constantly being pestered by trouble seekers.


    Want to target him? Then he would take the initiative to attack and kill the people who were targeting him.


    ¡°Big Yellow, how many people are there?¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng used the Shadow Concealment Gu to hide his and Big Yellow¡¯s aura.


    He had no choice but to use this Shadow Concealment Gu as he didn¡¯t possess any aura-concealing techniques. Most importantly, the consumption was minimal ¡ª he only needed to provide a trace of Spiritual Qi.

 Chapter 266 - Indignation!

    Chapter 266 Indignation!


    The Gu system actually had a lot of research value.


    In many cases, some special Gus could be used to great effect. Leng Maner¡¯s countless special Gus were such an example¡ªshe could take out suitable Gus in almost any situation.


    The only pity was that raising Gus was too troublesome. They needed special feed, a special environment, a corresponding cultivation technique, and their lifespan was short.


    Take the Shadow Concealment Gu in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand as an example. He could not provide it with a suitable environment and didn¡¯t have its feed.


    It was already in a weakened state and would die in a few more days. After all, he did not have Leng Maner¡¯s Myriad Gu Goblet.


    Nonetheless, it was already good enough that it could be of use for a few more days.


    ¡°Woof, woof, woof!¡±


    Big Yellow sniffed around and barked three times.


    According to the rules Zhou Feng had set for Big Yellow, calling out three times meant that more than ten people were following him.


    ¡°So many?¡±


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that he should widen his distance from Heavenly Star City.


    Fighting near Heavenly Star City was impossible because it was too disadvantageous for him.


    It was better to pull out enough space first and then destroy them one by one in the wild.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Zhou Feng continued to drill into the forest in the wild.


    Bai Wuyi followed closely behind.


    ¡°Found him! Although this kid used some special methods to hide his aura, he can¡¯t hide from the eyes of our eagles!¡±


    as w


    mon


    Bai Wuyi was wearing feathered armor and was surrounded by countless avian beasts.


    As mentioned in the past, Bai Wuyi¡¯s innate ability was related to nurturing spirit beasts. Bai Wuyi was so unconvinced of his defeat in the mystic realm because he had been unable to bring along the numerous avian beasts and spirit beasts he had raised.


    There weren¡¯t such restrictions in the outside world.


    At that moment, if one took a glance at Bai Wuyi, they would realize that at least tens to hundreds of avian spirit beasts were surrounding him.


    The ones closest to Bai Wuyi were almost all Purple Mansion spirit beasts.


    Bai Wuyi had even mastered a technique that could link up the auras of all the avian spirit beasts.


    Using numbers to suppress and bully the weak!


    This was Bai Wuyi¡¯s most commonly used battle tactic!


    Apart from this, a half-step Divine Ability Dao Protector stood behind Bai Wuyi.


    What was a half-step Divine Ability cultivator? It was someone who had failed to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Failure to break through to the Divine Ability realm would cause one¡¯s body and Soul Altar to collapse. Logically speaking, they would die on the spot.


    However, their lives were saved by a secret technique.


    Since a secret technique saved this kind of cultivator, they could hardly use their Spiritual Qi.


    Once they used it, they would trigger their injuries, their bodies would collapse, and they would die within 15 minutes.


    Because of this, cultivators who failed to make a breakthrough were very suitable to become Dao Protectors.


    As Dao Protectors, one wouldn¡¯t have to worry about their loyalty.


    Secondly, they wouldn¡¯t act unless it was a critical moment. This way, the clans could guarantee that those geniuses wouldn¡¯t rely too much on their Dao Protectors.


    Dao Protectors could only be used once. This way, they had to think carefully before doing anything


    At present, such a Dao Protector was standing behind Bai Wuyi. Therefore, Bai Wuyi was full of confidence and planned to get back at Zhou Feng


    The eagles soared into the sky.


    When Bai Wuyi walked, he was accompanied by countless eagles. The scene was extremely spectacular.


    Moreover, he was astonishingly fast.


    Bai Wuyi could also see any trace Zhou Feng had left through his eagles¡¯ eyes.


    While the others were still slowly chasing after Zhou Feng, Bai Wuyi caught up to Zhou Feng in an instant.


    Zhou Feng was leading Big Yellow to look for a suitable place to set up a trap.


    Suddenly, he heard a few eagle cries. Those sounds were ear-piercing and so loud that his eardrums were about to burst. ¡°I¡¯ve finally found you! Die!¡±


    When Bai Wuyi saw Zhou Feng, he wore a crazed expression and immediately attacked Zhou Feng


    Bai Wuyi had learned from his previous experience¡ªit was useless to talk nonsense with a person like Zhou Feng.


    Bai Wuyi did not forget what Zhou Feng had done in the mystic realm.


    He had not participated in a verbal fight, nor had he allowed other factors to affect him. His attacks were direct and ruthless.


    To deal with such a person, Bai Wuyi had to strike first and not hesitate.


    It could be said that Bai Wuyi had learned a lot from his previous experience.


    Countless eagles charged down from the sky like groups of iron cavalry.


    In an instant, the entire sky was distorted as these eagles dove, generating rumbling sounds.


    They oozed out a sharp aura and were like the surging waves, ready to swallow him whole.


    Zhou Feng finally experienced what it was like for an enemy to start a fight without saying a word.


    This was because this was what he liked to do the most before.


    However, it was a pity that Zhou Feng was no longer the same as before.


    Had Bai Wuyi used this move back in the mystic realm, Zhou Feng would have been in serious trouble.


    However, after his experiential training in the Demons¡¯ territory, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had reached a level Bai Wuyi would never reach.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm eyes turned fierce in an instant, and his aura tore through the sky.


    The Invincible Avatar manifested, and the entire sky and earth seemed to be suppressed in an instant.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s expression immediately changed.


    Was this still Zhou Feng, the person who had trounced him? Or was this a different person!?


    How much time had passed? Why was Zhou Feng able to grow to such an extent!?


    And what was this anomaly? Why was it able to suppress him!?


    Initially, Bai Wuyi had been fully confident that he would take his revenge, but this was not the case now.


    As soon as Zhou Feng¡¯s Invincible Avatar appeared, the flying eagles suddenly fell from the sky like dumplings. Zhou Feng¡¯s violent Blood Qi continued to gush out, and a golden fist that was like a heavy hammer assaulted Bai Wuyi.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Bai Wuyi did not have the chance to retreat. He could only roar angrily and engage in close combat with Zhou Feng.


    At that moment, Bai Wuyi manifested his avatar.


    ¡°Pfft!¡±


    In the next second, however, Zhou Feng broke Bai Wuyi¡¯s arm with a punch. Then, he punched Bai Wuyi in the chest.


    Bai Wuyi felt as if his chest had caved in, and his pained face betrayed a hint of disbelief.


    ¡°Am I going to die!?¡¯


    Bai Wuyi was sent flying as that thought surfaced in his mind.


    Ever since he had obtained the passive Second Heart, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi reserves had doubled while his body had become even more terrifying


    Not to mention that his punches had all sorts of passive bonuses.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s body was not very strong, and he was naturally trounced after this exchange.


    Of course, the most important thing was that Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar suppressed Bai Wuyi.


    If that weren¡¯t the case, Bai Wuyi might still have been able to flee.


    Unfortunately, the Invincible Avatar¡¯s suppression effect deprived Bai Wuyi of having the ability to make a choice.


    Thus, a funny scene played out.


    Bai Wuyi came to find trouble with Zhou Feng aggressively and even attacked Zhou Feng as soon as he saw him.


    The outcome, however, was the exact opposite of what he expected-he was trounced even more miserably this time!


    This was too hard to swallow!

 Chapter 267 - The Dao Protectors Strength

    Chapter 267 The Dao Protector¡¯s Strength


    Once one reached the Purple Mansion realm, the battle between avatars was crucial.


    Once your avatar suppressed your opponent, then your opponent wouldn¡¯t be able to win against you to a large extent.


    Bai Wuyi had decided to find trouble with Zhou Feng because he knew Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t cultivated any avatar-manifesting techniques.


    When Zhou Feng had defeated him the first time, he had relied on the element of surprise, as well as that strange innate divine ability.


    As such, Bai Wuyi was overconfident about his fight.


    Bai Wuyi had borrowed the aura of the group of eagles to increase the power of his avatar of a huge eagle fighting a true dragon to a terrifying degree.


    He would crush Zhou Feng and destroy his inner demon.


    The more he cultivated, the more important one¡¯s mental state became.


    If even the slightest trace of a shadow formed in a cultivator¡¯s heart, it would hinder them from smoothly breaking through to the next realm.


    Even freakishly talented cultivators could not escape from their inner demons as long as they experienced a crushing defeat. Their cultivation speed would be affected as well.


    ¡°Impossible! Could it be that you hid your true strength last time?¡±


    Bai Wuyi naturally could not accept such a result.


    He had been so excited at the idea of vanquishing the inner demons, but who knew that he would receive a heavy blow instead!?


    W


    ¡®He must have hidden his strength when he was in the mystic realm! Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have cultivated such a strange avatar in such a short time.¡¯


    Moreover, this strange avatar was so terrifying!


    This was only an embryonic form, yet it could completely suppress him. This was impossible!


    ¡®Who is it!?!


    Zhou Feng completely ignored Bai Wuyi, even though he had sent him flying with a punch.


    However, his expression did not relax at all.


    Instead, he looked at a certain location.


    From the very beginning, he had been feeling a faint sense of threat coming from that direction.


    After defeating Bai Wuyi, that faint sense of threat began to increase.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you coming out?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not receive any response, but he was not in a hurry. He naturally had a way to make this person appear.


    A simple punch!


    Zhou Feng did not even glance at Bai Wuyi. He only threw a simple punch.


    A tsunami of Blood Qi accompanied this punch. ¡®Invincible Fist: Landslide!¡¯


    The violent Blood Qi instantly exploded, and the fabrics of space shattered.


    Although he did not know who the person hiding in the dark was, he could sense them.


    This person seemed to be protecting Bai Wuyi.


    ¡®You don¡¯t wanna come out? Then I¡¯ll kill the one you protect. Let¡¯s see if you come out or


    not!¡¯


    Killing Bai Wuyi might be a tough decision for others to make. After all, this was a direct Bai descendant.


    Previously, he had severely injured Bai Wuyi, and the Bai Clan had gone crazy.


    Now, if Bai Wuyi died, they might send a Divine Ability expert to capture Zhou Feng.


    No matter what, the death of a direct descendant was a serious matter. If the murderer weren¡¯t brought to justice, it would be a heavy blow to the Bai Clan¡¯s reputation.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care. He didn¡¯t even put Bai Wuyi in his eyes.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s strength had exceeded Zhou Feng¡¯s back in the mystic realm.


    However, Bai Wuyi had not progressed, while Zhou Feng was no longer the same person. As for the pursuit of the Bai Clan¡¯s Divine Ability expert, Zhou Feng had already thought about it.


    ¡®Anyway, I¡¯m about to head to the Southern Sea. That seems to be the Dragon Clan¡¯s territory.¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s original plan was to head to the Southern Sea and search for the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage.


    The Southern Sea was the Dragon Clan¡¯s territory, so it would be very easy to cause misunderstandings if a human Divine Ability expert went to the Dragon Clan¡¯s territory.


    Perhaps, this would help him draw the Dragon Clan¡¯s attention from him. It would be best if a Dragon King fought against the Bai Clan¡¯s Divine Ability expert.


    This way, he would have enough time to search for the land of heritage.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Although this was a seemingly crude punch, the surging Blood Qi made Bai Wuyi feel the threat of death.


    He was going to die!


    If he couldn¡¯t dodge, he would lose his life here!


    Fear instantly filled Bai Wuyi. He didn¡¯t expect that Zhou Feng would crush him like an ant.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s Dao Protector could no longer remain hidden. If he didn¡¯t make a move, Bai Wuyi would be killed.


    A simple gray light shield appeared before Bai Wuyi.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s simple punch seemed to have been forcefully wiped away, leaving no trace behind.


    Then, an old man flashed in front of Zhou Feng


    This old man looked ragged and disheveled, his eyes were empty and lifeless, and a deathly aura surrounded his body.


    At first glance, he looked like an old man who was about to die of old age.


    ¡°Who are you?¡±


    Although the old man in front of him looked like he was about to die of old age, Zhou Feng became more vigilant than he had ever been before.


    This was because the old man exuded a menacing aura.


    Zhou Feng had only experienced this kind of feeling from a Divine Ability expert.


    That suffocating aura made him want to flee.


    ¡°Me? I¡¯m just a person who¡¯s about to die!¡±


    The old Dao Protector didn¡¯t seem to have much of an emotional fluctuation, and his tone didn¡¯t carry much of a will to live.


    It was as if he had wanted to die a long time ago, but for some reason, he always survived.


    ¡°Kill him! Kill him!¡±


    Bai Wuyi, who had been so scared that he almost peed his pants, now had a look of exasperation on his face.


    A moment earlier, he had thought that he was going to die here.


    ¡®This person is too abnormal! He has to die here today!


    ¡®He must have undergone such a huge transformation because of the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure!


    ¡®If he had not obtained the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure, he would not have such a huge change.


    ¡®As long as he dies here, I will obtain everything that he has!¡¯ At that time, he would be able to fight against those monsters in Heavenly Star City.


    After hearing Bai Wuyi¡¯s words, a glimmer of light flashed through the old man¡¯s empty eyes.


    Then, an aura that had been quiet for a long time began to awaken. It was like a sleeping dragon slowly awakening.


    ¡°Divine Ability realm? Let me try it out!¡± Zhou Feng did not foolishly wait until the old man¡¯s aura reached its peak. Instead, he took the initiative to attack.


    ¡®Invincible Fist: Nuke Punch!¡¯


    Because his Blood Qi had doubled, his physical strength had also increased.


    Therefore, he was able to control the Nuke Punch¡¯s power at this moment.


    A few days ago, he could only go all out every time because his physical body was not strong enough.


    The situation was completely different now, and he could attack with ease.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi instantly seemed to have been swallowed by a giant whale.


    After that, a dazzling light flashed before a destructive aura quietly descended.


    ¡°Lesser Void Art!¡±


    The old man¡¯s eyes widened, and that gray light shield appeared once again.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Nuke Punch was wiped out without even a trace of fireworks!?


    That¡¯s right! It was wiped out, and not even a trace was left behind!


    Moreover, there wasn¡¯t even a sound. It was too terrifying!


    Still, the old man¡¯s aura became weaker upon casting the Lesser Void Art.


    He initially looked like he was half dead, but now he looked like he was on the verge of death.


    In the next instant, however, the old man¡¯s eyes began to shine, and an illusory avatar began to appear.

 Chapter 268 - Lesser Void Art

    Chapter 268 Lesser Void Art


    A patch of void slowly appeared behind the old man. It was actually his avatar!


    This patch of void instantly eroded Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar.


    A sense of desolation, boundlessness, and lifelessness entered this world through this avatar.


    At that moment, it was as if this patch of void had descended here.


    Lesser Void Art!


    This was one of the strongest 3,000 lesser divine abilities and had a long reputation.


    In order to cultivate the Lesser Void Art, one had to comprehend the Spatial Dao, which was a challenging feat.


    Those who could comprehend it were all monsters amongst monsters.


    This old man had once been frivolous, and he did not care about dissuasion as he dove into the sea of bitterness of comprehending the great Spatial Dao.


    He had wanted to comprehend the great Spatial Dao and step into the Divine Ability realm at the same time.


    Then, he would turn the Lesser Void Art into his own intrinsic divine ability.


    But it was evident that this old man was not that kind of monstrous genius.


    Not only did he fail to comprehend the great Spatial Dao but also to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    The terrifying power of the void had instantly destroyed this old man¡¯s cultivation foundation.


    If not for his talent, the old man would have died on the spot.


    Also, the old man would have died silently if someone had not interfered.


    The Divine Ability Bai Patriarch had rushed over and asked him to protect his clan for 100 years as a condition to save him.


    He then appointed the old man as Bai Wuyi¡¯s Dao Protector.


    ¡°Although it¡¯s not a divine ability yet, it¡¯s enough to deal with you.¡±


    The old man¡¯s voice was hoarse. The power of the void was already corroding his body, and it was slowly cracking.


    ¡®Danger!


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stood on end, and an intense sense of danger made him retreat.


    The formless power of the void instantly split his clothes apart.


    At the same time, a strand of hair fell down.


    This attack didn¡¯t make a single sound!


    The Lesser Void Art was not only powerful, but it did not make any sound when one attacked.


    If one was not careful, they could easily die on the spot.


    ¡°Big Yellow, run away!¡±


    Zhou Feng made a prompt decision and shouted at Big Yellow, hiding at the side.


    Suddenly, Big Yellow jumped out of nowhere.


    Zhou Feng stored Big Yellow in his storage pet bag and then ran away without looking back.


    He was so fast and decisive that Bai Wuyi was stunned.


    He was not familiar with the way he ran away!


    It was completely different from what Zhou Feng had showcased before.


    Zhou Feng was a boorish man. No matter who or how strong his opponent was, Zhou Feng would face them without uttering a word.


    Whether he could do something or not, he would always take the initiative!


    Identity and background? In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, such things were useless.


    But now, he actually ran away so decisively.


    Speaking of running away, Zhou Feng had also anticipated this. Although he didn¡¯t cultivate any special techniques, his powerful physical body was his most powerful asset in escaping.


    Zhou Feng had an indestructible physical body and incomparably raw power. Thus, almost no one could stop him if he wanted to escape.


    Furthermore, he had a few passive skills that boosted his fleeing speed.


    Daylight Combat: You will be even more valiant when you fight under the sun!


    Your Speed will increase by 10 points under the sun!


    Gale Steps: Your Speed will increase by 5%.


    These two passive skills directly increased his speed. There were also passive skills like Tenacious Heart and Self-Healing Constitution.


    When he ran, Zhou Feng could be even more violent. He did not have to worry about whether his body could bear it or not.


    As long as he fled at top speed, the rest wouldn¡¯t be a problem.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses also told him that the old man in front of him wouldn¡¯t be able to hold on for long.


    As long as he bought enough time, there was no need for him to make a move.


    The old man would break down on his own.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless!¡±


    The old man looked at the fleeing Zhou Feng and didn¡¯t move at all. Instead, he extended his right hand forward, and a tear opened in the fabric of space.


    The flesh on the old man¡¯s right hand instantly disappeared, leaving behind only white bones.


    In front of the Lesser Void Art, any attempt to escape was futile.


    No matter how fast one was, could they be faster than teleportation?


    ¡°Nuke Punch!¡±


    Zhou Feng was eerily calm at this moment.


    Although he was unable to block that strange void power, Bai Wuyi couldn¡¯t block his punch either.


    At most, Zhou Feng would die! He still had the passive Nirvana Rebirth.


    Zhou Feng felt it was not a loss to exchange his life for Bai Wuyi¡¯s life.


    Anyway, this old man should be Bai Wuyi¡¯s Dao Protector. In other words, he wouldn¡¯t just watch Bai Wuyi die.


    When this old man appeared, Zhou Feng had already considered all of these things.


    This time, he didn¡¯t hold back his Nuke Punch.


    He used all of his strength!


    A resounding boom reverberated throughout the area, and a dazzling light shot up into the sky.


    ¡°What¡¯s that? Is someone fighting? Is that Zhou Feng?¡±


    ¡°Someone wants to beat us to it! Hurry up!¡±


    ¡°That aura¡­ Is someone using a divine ability? But something isn¡¯t right!¡±


    Naturally, such a loud sound attracted the attention of the people searching for Zhou


    Feng


    Initially, those people were still searching for Zhou Feng¡¯s whereabouts. After all, Zhou Feng had not left any traces thanks to the Shadow Concealment Gu/


    If Bai Wuyi did not have the Eagle Division, he would have been unable to find Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Save me!¡±


    Sure enough, Zhou Feng¡¯s punch caused Bai Wuyi to scream.


    Bai Wuyi¡¯s trump card had already been used up in the mystic realm.


    This time, Bai Wuyi¡¯s ordinary methods were useless against this otherworldly Nuke Punch.


    Thus, he could only call out to his Dao Protector.


    As expected, when Bai Wuyi encountered a crisis, the old man gave up on chasing after Zhou Feng and chose to protect Bai Wuyi.


    ¡®I¡¯ve succeeded! As expected, the great clans¡¯ direct descendants are hard to kill¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng successfully avoided a disaster and immediately increased his speed, fleeing further away.


    To be honest, the great clans¡¯ direct descendants were indeed hard to kill.


    The Bai Clan was one of the four great clans in Heavenly Star City, and their foundation was different from the other clans.


    A direct descendant like Bai Wuyi not only had an item with a Divine Ability expert¡¯s power, but a Dao Protector was also protecting Bai Wuyi.


    Other than crushing him with his strength, Zhou Feng would have to use up all of his trump cards. He also had to find a suitable location before having a chance to kill him. Otherwise, it would be too difficult to kill Bai Wuyi.


    While Zhou Feng was thinking about how to kill Bai Wuyi, the old man appeared before Bai Wuyi, and a void vortex instantly swallowed up that vast momentum.


    The Nuke Punch did not cause any waves once again.


    ¡°Cough!¡±


    After doing all this, the old man began to cough crazily, and traces of dark purple blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth.


    It was still too forceful!


    The old man had failed to break through to the Divine Ability realm, and now he was completely hanging on by a thread.


    He had not taken down Zhou Feng at the first possible moment, so now there was no chance at all.


    The Lesser Void Art itself was a divine ability that consumed a lot of energy.


    The old man¡¯s weak body couldn¡¯t support such consumption at all.


    Fortunately, the people from the other factions had heard the commotion and were rushing there.


    At least, Bai Wuyi¡¯s life wasn¡¯t in danger now.


    With the Bai Clan backing them, those factions wouldn¡¯t dare to watch Bai Wuyi die here.


    ¡°Huh? This old thing can¡¯t hold on?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that the old man¡¯s aura was weak.

 Chapter 269 - Turning Back to Kill

    Chapter 269 Turning Back to Kill


    When Zhou Feng sensed the old man¡¯s aura weakening, he had the urge to turn back to kill Bai Wuyi.


    After all, Bai Wuyi could not protect himself against his attacks without the Dao Protector¡¯s assistance.


    For some reason, however, a heart-palpitating sense of danger lingered in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    It had no intention of dissipating.


    Therefore, he contemplated for a split second and decided to continue running forward without turning his head back.


    ¡°What a pity!¡±


    The half-dead old man watched as Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even turn his head back, and a trace of pity appeared on his face.


    He had used the Lesser Void Art successively, and his body couldn¡¯t hold on at all. He might not even be able to survive past today, but it didn¡¯t mean that he didn¡¯t have the strength to launch a single attack.


    Originally, the old man wanted to show his weakness and lure Zhou Feng back.


    In the end, if he used his last bit of strength to kill Zhou Feng here, this could be considered as repaying the Bai Clan¡¯s kindness.


    In order to deceive Zhou Feng, he deliberately did not control the injuries on his body. He allowed his body to collapse, but Zhou Feng did not fall for it.


    This young man was powerful, decisive, and had sharp senses. In the future, he would probably be a great enemy of the Bai Clan.


    Many years ago, he had met a genius cultivator who was similar to Zhou Feng.


    That kind of person might not have a high starting point, and their aptitude was not good enough, but they had tenacious means to stay alive.


    Their enemies that may have been famous for a while might have already fallen, while that kind of person must still be alive and kicking.


    ¡°However, we still have to do what needs to be done!¡±


    The old man¡¯s previous expression changed.


    Half of his body exploded, his flesh and blood melted, and the aura of the peerless nine heavens gushed out.


    The entire sky suddenly darkened as a void vortex appeared before Zhou Feng, who was far away in the horizon. and void power shot out of it.


    ¡®How is this possible!? I¡¯ve already so far away!¡¯


    Alarm bells rang in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart, and the sense of danger that lingered in his heart intensified as time passed.


    e


    The Lesser Void Art was indeed one of the strongest divine abilities.


    Not only could it ignore distance, but it was also very stealthy when cast.


    The second before Zhou Feng was hit, his body instinctively shifted to the right and began to twist.


    From afar, he looked like a capital C, and the void power that annihilated all things just brushed past him.


    In an instant, a large layer of flesh was cut off, and his white bones were exposed.


    The attack¡¯s speed was so fast that not even a single drop of blood was splashed.


    ¡°Is he really that kind of person? He didn¡¯t even die with this!?¡±


    The old man felt Zhou Feng¡¯s still vigorous lifeforce and sighed in his heart.


    In the end, the old man still couldn¡¯t resist the backlash/ He closed his eyes and collapsed.


    ¡°He¡­ didn¡¯t die? He¡¯s fine!?¡±


    Bai Wuyi had witnessed the whole process and also sensed that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t die.


    This was too illogical!


    What kind of virtue did Zhou Feng have to be able to withstand two moves from a half-step Divine Ability expert?


    Bai Wuyi was very clear about his Dao Protector.


    Although he had failed to break through to the Divine Ability realm, he could still display the strength of a Divine Ability expert if he fought to the death.


    The most important thing was that the Lesser Void Art was too terrifying!


    Its power was comparable to a Divine Ability expert using some ordinary divine abilities.


    But Zhou Feng still didn¡¯t die in the end, which made Bai Wuyi somewhat unable to accept it.


    Come to think of it, Zhou Feng had already wasted quite a few of Bai Wuyi¡¯s trump cards.


    This Dao Protector was originally Bai Wuyi¡¯s strongest safeguard.


    Moreover, Bai Wuyi only had this Dao Protector in his entire life. Even if the Bai Clan¡¯s business was big, it was impossible for them to arrange a Divine Ability expert to be his Dao Protector.


    If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng, Bai Wuyi would still have all sorts of trump cards.


    This was enough to protect him on his path of cultivation.


    But now, all these trump cards were gone, and he hadn¡¯t even gotten anything out of it.


    This was what Bai Wuyi couldn¡¯t accept the most.


    ¡®He¡¯s dead?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng finally felt the sense of danger that lingered in his heart disappear.


    However, he looked rather miserable right now.


    A large piece of flesh was missing from half his body, and his white ribs were exposed in the air. At the same time, the corrosive power of the void was constantly tearing at his flesh and blood.


    His self-healing ability had actually been suppressed!


    Zhou Feng could only temporarily control half of his body¡¯s flesh and blood.


    Under normal circumstances, the best choice would be to quickly find a place to recuperate. Then, he would rely on his passive Tenacious Heart to recover from his injuries and slowly plot his next move.


    In any case, the Bai Clan¡¯s business was huge, and it was impossible for them to leave Heavenly Star City.


    In the future, if they wanted to take revenge, they would have plenty of time.


    However, Zhou Feng would not!


    The current Bai Wuyi did not have a Dao Protector or any protective treasures, and those spirit beasts would not be of any use to him.


    This was the perfect opportunity to kill Bai Wuyi!


    However, it was also possible to put Zhou Feng in a dangerous situation.


    ¡®I have to make a move! Otherwise, those flies will definitely not let this go!¡¯


    With that in mind, Zhou Feng endured the pain in his body.


    He circulated all the Blood Qi in his body and clenched his right fist. The surging Blood Qi formed the shape of a dragon.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body emitted a dazzling golden light like a brilliant sun that shone in all directions.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately launched an attack.


    Bai Wuyi was already quite frightened. In addition, he had been under the impression that Zhou Feng had already escaped.


    Therefore, he had relaxed, lowering his defenses.


    He didn¡¯t even have the time to react when facing that sudden attack.


    He also didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be so bold. The pursuers were that faraway, after all.


    Wouldn¡¯t he be putting himself in danger with this attack?


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­ It¡¯s Bai Wuyi and Zhou Feng!¡±


    ¡°Oh no! Bai Wuyi is going to die at Zhou Feng¡¯s hands! When that time comes, the Bai Clan will definitely go crazy.¡±


    ¡°Hurry up and stop him. This is a good opportunity for the Bai Clan to owe us a favor.¡±


    e


    Us a


    ¡°He is really a madman. He is injured to such an extent, yet he still wants to kill Bai Wuyi here?¡±


    III


    The few pursuers who had just arrived witnessed a jaw-dropping scene.


    There was a huge crack in the fabrics of space. The crack was extremely smooth, as if it had been torn apart by some kind of great force.


    On the other side, Zhou Feng threw a punch at Bai Wuyi. For some unknown reason, one side of his body was missing a large piece of flesh and blood.


    Zhou Feng looked miserable, yet his aura did decrease at all in spite of his glaring injuries.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Bai Wuyi had already used all his trump cards. This time, there was no one who could save him.


    Therefore, before he died, he let out a desperate howl.


    He had never thought this would be the day he died.


    He had underestimated Zhou Feng once again.


    ¡®Why? Why is it like this!?


    ¡®It must be the Human Emperor Ring! It must be because of the ring!¡¯


    ¡°This person has the Human Emperor¡¯s hidden treasure! And¡ª¡±


    Before he died, Bai Wuyi used all his strength to shout out a shocking piece of news.


    Before Bai Wuyi could finish his sentence, he was smashed into a meat paste by a punch.


    That¡¯s right! It was meat paste! He looked a bit like a meat patty in the middle of a hamburger, except that there were some gray bones mixed in.


    A dignified descendant of the Bai Clan was smashed to death by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    This scene was unimaginable to those who had just arrived.


    A vagabond cultivator killed a descendant of the Bai Clan!


    Moreover, it was a direct kill. This could be seen from the terrifying battle traces around them.

 Chapter 270 - Troublesome Divine Power

    Chapter 270 Troublesome Divine Power


    ¡°Aaah!¡±


    After Zhou Feng forcefully killed Bai Wuyi, the intense pain assaulting his body caused him to moan involuntarily.


    It was too painful!


    This pain was like someone continuously sprinkling salt on his wound.


    Moreover, his passive Self-Healing Constitution was ineffective.


    He could feel that his passive skill had been trying to heal that huge wound, but a sort of power was always stopping it.


    However, now was not the time to be distracted.


    After forcefully killing Bai Wuyi, Zhou Feng immediately fled.


    ¡°Give chase!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t let him escape! Hurry up and chase!¡±


    The others couldn¡¯t care less about what had happened to Bai Wuyi.


    They immediately chased after Zhou Feng.


    Fortunately, none of these people were Divine Ability experts.


    Presumably, it was because Divine Ability experts disdained to deal with a Purple Mansion expert.


    After all, the top priority for Divine Ability experts was comprehending their divine abilities.


    Also, the impression many people in Heavenly Star City had of Zhou Feng was still stuck in the past.


    These people might not know just how terrifying Zhou Feng¡¯s growth rate was.


    In the eyes of many people, sending out a bunch of Purple Mansion cultivators to capture Zhou Feng would be a piece of cake.


    Actually, it wasn¡¯t their fault for thinking this way. The main reason was that the path of cultivation couldn¡¯t be accomplished overnight.


    Especially after reaching the Purple Mansion realm, one¡¯s strength couldn¡¯t be increased just like that.


    Sometimes, a few months would only be enough to accumulate some Spiritual Qi and learn some techniques. It wouldn¡¯t be able to increase one¡¯s strength at all.


    It was precisely because of this miscalculation, coupled with Zhou Feng¡¯s home-ground advantage in the wild due to passive Natural Affinity that Zhou Feng was able to get rid of these people swiftly. If one didn¡¯t have special tracking abilities, it would be near impossible to find any traces of Zhou Feng, who had perfectly blended with his surroundings.


    ¡®I finally escaped!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was pale, and his body was unprecedentedly weak.


    He was currently in a cave, and no one should be able to find him in a short period.


    After getting rid of those annoying flies, he immediately began to check his injuries.


    His injuries were appalling-a large chunk of flesh and blood was gone from the left side, and even his bones and internal organs were exposed outside.


    An ordinary cultivator would probably have died on the spot if they had sustained such a terrifying injury.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng had a powerful physique while his recovery ability was top-notch.


    In addition, his boundless Blood Qi had formed a thin membrane that protected his wound, so he was temporarily fine.


    Zhou Feng frowned as he waited for his passive Tenacious Heart to be triggered.


    Soon, the passive skill was triggered, consuming a large amount of Blood Qi was consumed and healing his wounds.


    However, the most serious wounds did not recover as Zhou Feng had expected.


    A gray substance kept preventing the wounds from recovering.


    ¡°What kind of power is this?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s frown deepened.


    He had never thought that his passive Tenacious Heart would be useless one day.


    The power ravaging his body was like gangrene that couldn¡¯t be eradicated.


    ¡°Could this be the effect of a Divine Ability technique?


    ¡®As expected. The higher the opponent¡¯s cultivation, the more some of my passive skills will lose some of their effectiveness¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng pondered for a moment before taking a piece of cloth out of his storage ring and bandaging the wound.


    After all, letting the wound remain exposed in the air was not a solution.


    ¡®This¡­ Why are they so fast this time!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was in the midst of thinking about what to do next when he sensed a few people searching for him.


    Zhou Feng had just sat down not long ago.


    How could they find him so quickly?


    Why?


    Logically speaking, it would take at least half a day for those people to find him.


    However, the current situation did not allow him to think too much.


    ¡°This kid is nearby!¡±


    ¡°Remember to capture him alive! This kid has obtained the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure and has many secrets.¡±


    ¡°Got it! Surround this area. We can¡¯t let this big fish escape.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry! Bai Wuyi¡¯s Dao Protector seriously injured this kid, and his divine power must have entered his wound. He won¡¯t be able to run far.¡±


    ¡®Divine power?¡¯


    Zhou Feng vaguely heard what these people said.


    He finally understood what that mysterious substance preventing his wound from healing was.


    As the footsteps got closer and closer, Zhou Feng knew that he had to move. He couldn¡¯t let these people know that he was hiding here.


    ¡®No! I don¡¯t need to run!¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about it.


    If he kept being chased like this, he would be on the passive side, always running for his life.


    This was very disadvantageous to him. He would have no time to rest or recover from his injuries.


    If this dragged on, his situation would get worse.


    Bai Wuyi had shouted that Zhou Feng had obtained the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure before his death. This would definitely attract the covetous eyes of many people.


    However, in reality, Zhou Feng had not obtained the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure yet. His current achievements and the feat of killing Bai Wuyi were all the result of his passive skills.


    Zhou Feng absolutely could not allow anyone to find out about his skill panel.


    If he wanted to get out of this predicament, there was only one way-slaughter anyone that coveted his secrets.


    He would keep killing until the Divine Ability expert made their move.


    ¡®Perhaps I can make use of this opportunity to fake my death?¡¯


    It was very likely that a Divine Ability expert would be drawn out in such a situation.


    He was definitely not a Divine Ability expert¡¯s opponent right now.


    Should he make use of this opportunity to waste a chance at rebirth and fake his death?


    At that time, everything in Heavenly Star City would have nothing to do with him.


    Zhou Feng could use his new identity to slowly develop and come back for revenge when the time was right.


    This could be a way out.


    ¡®Eh? This is¡­!


    Just as he was considering whether to fake his death, the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth was triggered.


    The light and agile Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi began to cleanse his entire body slowly.


    More than half of the divine power in the wound was purified!


    The passive Purification of Heaven and Earth could actually purify divine power!?¡¯ Zhou Feng recalled the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth¡¯s description.


    Purification of Heaven and Earth: Every other day, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi will help you purify a negative state on your body..


    ¡®Could it be that divine power is also considered a negative state?¡¯


    If it were, his injury would recover completely in less than two days!


    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, then things will be different!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes suddenly flashed with a trace of madness.


    While Zhou Feng was thinking about what he should do in the future¡­


    The Bai Clan had gone mad!


    Their direct descendant and his Dao Protector had died.


    This was the first direct descendant of a large clan to die in the hands of a vagabond cultivator in several hundred years.


    While everyone marveled at Zhou Feng¡¯s strength, they also wondered if the Bai Clan had declined.


    Why couldn¡¯t they defeat a vagabond cultivator? Why had the Dao Protector failed to protect his master?


    And then, the news that Zhou Feng had the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure spread throughout Heavenly Star City.


    This time, it was the turn of the entire Heavenly Star City to go crazy.


    The Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure? Zhou Feng actually had the Human Emperor¡¯s secret treasure on him?


    It was definitely because of this treasure that Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation had increased so quickly, to the point he was able to kill Bai Wuyi.

 Chapter 271 - Passive: Bloodline Simulation

    Chapter 271 Passive: Bloodline Simulation


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was calm, and there wasn¡¯t the slightest ripple in his eyes.


    His indestructible body was like a long spear, shattering all of the enemies in front of him.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The people in front of him could only let out miserable screams. They couldn¡¯t even say anything else as a single punch smashed them.


    These people had come to surround and capture Zhou Feng, but he hunted them instead, killing them one by one.


    Zhou Feng merely stood there, and a wave of power suddenly appeared. As soon as the Invincible Avatar appeared, almost no one in the Purple Mansion realm was his match.


    He had completely recovered.


    Ever since he had learned that the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth could purify the divine power in his body, he had only spent two days to heal his injuries.


    Then, he put in motion his counter-attack plan.


    He didn¡¯t know how many people he had killed already, his new victims included.


    In any case, fewer people still dared to follow him. Some of them were even scared of losing their life.


    Sometimes Zhou Feng would deliberately be surrounded and then chase after a person without caring about anything else.


    Then, he would forcefully break out of the encirclement. After some time, he would jump out again.


    In this one-vs-one battle of attrition, they were the ones at a disadvantage.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng only got stronger. It was simply unreasonable.


    At this point, they had no choice but to attribute that to his passive Tenacious Heart, which they believe was his innate divine ability.


    This passive skill was useful, especially in guerrilla warfare.


    Even if Zhou Feng was injured all over, he would recover as long as he exited battle-mode.


    Then, he would start all over again. This was simply a scoundrel!


    This was equivalent to Zhou Feng having HP potions. He could always fight at full health.


    The only drawback was that it consumed too much Blood Qi.


    More than half of the inventory in Zhou Feng¡¯s storage ring had been used up.


    If he continued fighting like this, he was afraid that all the medicinal pills and spirit herbs he had previously stored would be used up.


    ¡®It¡¯s almost time. If this continues, those Divine Ability cultivators will come!¡¯


    If he continued to kill, it would be too dangerous.


    Although those Divine Ability cultivators didn¡¯t have much time to waste, it didn¡¯t mean they couldn¡¯t find the time.


    If he continued to be so unscrupulous, he might have to hand over a chance to be reborn.


    ¡®I should be able to draw a new passive skill now. I can just draw a passive skill and leave this place.¡¯


    This day was another good day to draw a passive skill. ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Bloodline Simulation: You can simulate the characteristics of different bloodlines or even imitate other races. It is difficult to detect any anomalies.


    You need blood as a primer, and you can only record three types of blood.


    ¡®Eh!? It¡¯s actually a camouflage-type passive skill.¡¯


    This was quite rare. This should be the first time he had drawn such a passive skill if he remembered correctly.


    ¡®Bloodline Simulation? In other words, I can turn into a Demon or a dragon?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first thought was whether he could simulate the a dragon¡¯s blood.


    He was about to head to the Southern Sea in search of the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage, after all.


    It was well-known that the Southern Sea was the territory of the dragons and the aquatic creatures.


    If a human wanted to walk in the Southern Sea, they would need to be at least in the Divine Ability realm to ensure their safety.


    The dragons and the aquatic creatures did not have a good attitude toward the human race.


    Well, most races did not have a good attitude toward the human race.


    This was because the human race occupied the most fertile areas and constantly oppressed the other races.


    It was very common among humans to kidnap the other races¡¯ folks and enslave them.


    The Southern Border¡¯s environment was harsh, so the human race¡¯s forces were weak there.


    On the contrary, the Eastern Land and Central Plains were where the human race¡¯s forces were strong


    The other races had no right to speak at all. Only a few powerful races had some say.


    For example, the Dragon Clan was allowed to walk in human cities.


    As for the other races, they could not even walk alone on the streets.


    Although the Human Emperors were no longer around, some policies affected the entire human race.


    Until now, there had been no changes.


    ¡®Now that I obtained this passive Bloodline Simulation, does this mean I can simulate aquatic creatures?


    ¡®If that¡¯s the case, I will be able to walk freely in the Southern Sea.¡¯


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng suddenly remembered that there seemed to be some blood of a demonic sea turtle in his storage ring


    The blood of this demonic sea turtle was a kind of pill-refining ingredient.


    Therefore, he had some stock in his storage ring.


    Now it was a good time to experiment.


    As such, Zhou Feng poured a trace of the sea turtle blood on his finger.


    ¡°How should I simulate it?


    Just as he was wondering why there was no reaction, his body absorbed the demonic sea turtle¡¯s blood.


    Then, Zhou Feng¡¯s body emitted a completely different aura from before.


    Moreover, he felt that his body could still undergo some subtle changes if he wanted to


    For example, scales and a turtle shell would grow out, and his back would become hunchbacked.


    These were some of the demonic sea turtle¡¯s characteristics.


    Generally speaking, demonic beasts would transform when they broke through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    However, because of the realm, bloodline, external influences, and other factors, the transformation of all demonic beasts would not be perfect.


    They would more or less retain some of their traits.


    Firstly, this would allow them to differentiate better.


    Secondly, it was the will of the demonic beasts to retain their traits.


    Completely the same as humans? This was simply impossible! The demonic beasts also had their pride.


    ¡®So magical!¡¯


    Feeling the various changes in his body, Zhou Feng could not help but reveal a surprised expression.


    This was really too magical!


    He had practically transformed into a demonic sea turtle, and his aura was completely different from before.


    At that moment, even if Li Rong was here, she wouldn¡¯t be able to recognize him!


    The passive Bloodline Simulation was also an aura-altering passive skill.


    Wasn¡¯t this the same as gaining an extra identity-no, three identities?


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, this passive skill was very beneficial to staying alive.


    If he sensed that something was wrong, he could switch to another identity.


    No one would be able to notice.


    It was too perfect! Zhou Feng could even take advantage of this passive skill to slip away.


    When he thought of this, his eyebrows couldn¡¯t help but dance.


    ¡°Eh? What happened? He disappeared? His aura has vanished!¡±


    ¡°Disappeared? Impossible! That person was still there just now. He didn¡¯t leave at all!¡±


    ¡°This is the situation now!¡±


    ¡°He must have used some kind of method!¡±


    The Bai clansmen were certain that Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t left at all. Perhaps Zhou Feng was still hunting them from the shadows.


    In order to kill Zhou Feng, the Bai Clan had sent an unknown number of clansmen.


    It was to ensure that Zhou Feng would fall into a trap.


    To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for Heavenly Star Patriarch¡¯s sudden warning¡ªthat Divine Ability experts were not allowed to target Zhou Feng¡ªthe Bai Clan¡¯s Divine Ability experts would have long since made a move and crushed Zhou Feng to death.


    They wouldn¡¯t need to carefully lure Zhou Feng into a trap like they were doing now.


    Unfortunately, the Heavenly Star Patriarch was an undisputed existence in Heavenly Star City.


    If the Bai Clan dared to disobey, the four great clans in Heavenly Star City would become three.


    It wasn¡¯t a difficult thing for the Heavenly Star Patriarch.

 Chapter 272 - Arriving at the Southern Sea

    Chapter 272 Arriving at the Southern Sea


    It was precisely because the Heavenly Star Patriarch was exerting pressure that Zhou Feng was able to do as he pleased.


    Otherwise, a Divine Ability expert would have already made a move, and Zhou Feng would not be as unrestrained as he was now.


    Many people could roughly guess the reason behind the Heavenly Star Patriarch¡¯s actions.


    It was rumored that the Heavenly Star Patriarch had once traveled to the Central Plains when he was young.


    Only after he failed in the struggle for hegemony did he return to the Southern Border to take over his family¡¯s city.


    The Central Plains was the most powerful region of the human race. In the Central Plains, the other races¡¯ members were all slaves, and even dragons could be seen pulling carts. The humans there were all chauvinistic.


    It was normal for the Heavenly Star Patriarch to be affected.


    Although the Human Emperors¡¯ era had long been gone, their achievements were still hard to erase.


    Therefore, it was normal for him to take care of the Human Emperor¡¯s successor.


    The Human Emperor¡¯s successor was naturally of more importance than the other races.


    Of course, this kind of help was not unlimited.


    The Heavenly Star Patriarch only restricted the Divine Ability experts from making a move. He did not care about anything else.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s life and death had nothing to do with the Heavenly Star Patriarch.


    The Heavenly Star Patriarch wasn¡¯t taking care of Zhou Feng but of his status as the successor of the Human Emperor.


    However, just this was enough for Zhou Feng.


    Given his ability to survive, it would still be a bit difficult for Purple Mansion cultivators to kill him.


    At Heavenly Star City, in the Li Clan¡­


    ¡°Did you hear? That person killed a direct descendant of the Bai Clan!¡±


    ¡°I heard about that too! He even killed his Dao Protector.¡±


    ¡°Is it really that exaggerated?¡± ¡°Of course! It¡¯s not just exaggerated, it¡¯s almost like a joke. To think a vagabond cultivator would attract such attention!¡±


    At present, Zhou Feng was a hot topic of discussion in the Li Clan.


    There was nothing they could do!


    Zhou Feng had become a popular figure in Heavenly Star City during this period.


    The main reason was that his actions were too exaggerated.


    Not only did he kill a direct descendant of the Bai Clan but also his Dao Protector.


    Now, the entire Bai Clan had gone crazy, and they had already mobilized the vassal clans to find Zhou Feng.


    And because of Zhou Feng¡¯s unclear relationship with Li Rong, the Li Clan paid special attention to Zhou Feng.


    Ever since Li Rong had met Zhou Feng, she had not been having a good time within the clan because of him.


    Although Li Rong was the patriarch¡¯s daughter, there were many mountains within a large clan.


    The patriarch had other children as well. If Li Rong did not have a Divine Ability aunt behind her, her situation would have been even more difficult.


    However, it was different. With Zhou Feng¡¯s rise, the clansmen were now much more polite to Li Rong.


    At the very least, they did not dare to suppress Li Rong openly.


    Everyone knew that Zhou Feng was a madman. Once one provoked him, he would not care about the other party¡¯s status.


    He had even killed a direct descendant of the Bai Clan. Did he have any scruples?


    What if they bullied Li Rong and this madman found out?


    The consequences were simply unimaginable.


    A madman was not scary. What was scary was that this madman was ridiculously strong.


    ¡®It¡¯s good that you¡¯re fine!¡¯


    Feeling the changes around her during this period, Li Rong once again understood the importance of strength.


    The others were now much more polite with her because Zhou Feng was powerful, and she shared a special relationship with him.


    Although Zhou Feng was a vagabond cultivator and did not have any backers behind him, his ¡®aptitude¡¯ ensured that he would go further and further on the path of cultivation.


    If she continued like this, she might not be able to have any other connection with Zhou Feng in her life.


    ¡®At the very least¡­ I have to be able to see his back!


    Li Rong gnashed her teeth and forced herself to enter the state of cultivation.


    Just as everyone was searching for Zhou Feng¡­


    Zhou Feng had already relied on his passive Bloodline Simulation to change his appearance and aura, and he was currently heading toward the Southern Sea.


    In this world, almost all cultivators relied on a person¡¯s aura to recognize them.


    Everyone¡¯s aura was different, and it was tough to alter something like this.


    Even if one managed to alter it, this change would be minimal.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng slipped away under his pursuers¡¯ noses effortlessly.


    He got rid of all his pursuers in an instant!


    It was not an exaggeration to say that this passive Bloodline Simulation was his salvation.


    It allowed him to get rid of a lot of trouble.


    ¡®Southern Sea¡­!


    At this moment, Zhou Feng could already feel a salty and fishy smell. This was the smell of the sea.


    As he got closer and closer to the sea, the surroundings became more and more desolate. There weren¡¯t even any traces of humans. It was extremely primitive.


    From his information, the Southern Sea was a xenophobic place. Other than the aquatic creatures, almost no other race could survive in this place.


    And the ruler of the Southern Sea was the Southern Sea Dragon Clan.


    Why did they have to become the Southern Sea Dragon Clan instead of calling themselves the Dragon Clan?


    This was because the Southern Sea Dragon Clan didn¡¯t dare to call themselves true dragons. The Southern Sea Dragon Clan only had a trace of the true dragon bloodline.


    The Southern Sea Dragon Sovereign was essentially just a Flood Dragon, and his cultivation was only at the peak of the Divine Ability realm.


    He had four fierce generals under him, and each of them was also in the Divine Ability realm.


    Apart from that, there were also quite a few chieftains of the aquatic tribes who were in the Divine Ability realm.


    They seemed to be much stronger than Heavenly Star City in terms of strength alone.


    But in reality, the Southern Sea¡¯s experts did not dare to go ashore.


    Why? The Dragon King suffering a humiliating defeat in Holy Maiden Green Lotus¡¯ hands not long ago was the perfect example.


    This could be considered the human race¡¯s dominance over the other races.


    If an expert of the aquatic tribes dared to go ashore, they would very easily be surrounded and attacked.


    Usually, only one or two aquatic tribesmen could go ashore to trade.


    ¡®It¡¯s just ahead! In this direction¡­¡¯


    As Zhou Feng got closer and closer to the sea, the Human Emperor Ring on his finger also showed a slight reaction.


    This meant that the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage was just ahead.


    However, according to the map he had gotten from Li Rong, the direction ahead seemed to be the location of the Dragon Palace!


    ¡°Could it be that the land of heritage is the Dragon Palace? If that¡¯s the case, it¡¯ll be troublesome!


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that it was a bit tricky.


    The Dragon Palace was not a place that ordinary people could enter.


    Should he retreat now? Impossible!


    The Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s second half was within reach, so how could Zhou Feng retreat now?


    If that were the case, he could only take it one step at a time.


    In a short while, Zhou Feng arrived at the seaside.


    Dense water vapor rushed toward him.


    The blue sea looked very calm and did not have many waves.


    He was not uncomfortable with the current environment because he was simulating a demonic sea turtle.


    The strength of the bloodline simulation was also displayed.


    This was a full-scale simulation, not some half-assed technique. Zhou Feng even felt that he could survive in the sea.


    ¡®If memory serves me, I seem to have the passive Underwater Breathing!


    With the passive Underwater Breathing and Bloodline Simulation, he could completely pretend to be an aquatic creature.

 Chapter 273 - Turtle Prime Minister?

    Chapter 273 Turtle Prime Minister?


    Zhou Feng directly jumped into the sea with that thought in mind.


    ¡°It really didn¡¯t affect me at all!¡±


    He didn¡¯t feel anything wrong when he jumped into the sea. Even his breathing wasn¡¯t affected at all.


    Then there was nothing to say. Since it didn¡¯t affect him at all, he continued to walk forward. Anyway, he was heading to the location recorded in the Human Emperor Ring.


    Zhou Feng was like a fish in the sea. His body moved slightly, and he dashed forward.


    Just as he jumped into the sea, a few people suddenly appeared by the sea.


    ¡°No! Impossible!¡±


    ¡°Your karmic arts don¡¯t work either? We¡¯ve been misled!¡±


    ¡°It should be. I just don¡¯t know what method Zhou Feng used this time.¡±


    These people had looks of disbelief on their faces.


    They couldn¡¯t fathom what method Zhou Feng used this time to avoid being tracked by the karmic arts. He had even misled them.


    Logically speaking, a vagabond cultivator like Zhou Feng with no foundation or backing shouldn¡¯t possess such a method.


    Could it be that someone was intentionally helping Zhou Feng?


    But it didn¡¯t make sense. If someone was doing this, why not show up directly?


    It was useless to say anything now. The clues were all gone.


    According to the compass, Zhou Feng should be in the sea in front of them.


    But was this possible? Could a human live in the sea?


    Just the aura of a human was enough to attract countless aquatic creatures.


    If Zhou Feng was so stupid, they wouldn¡¯t even need to do anything.


    ¡°We can only go to the Holy Maiden to report the situation!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s all we can do. I didn¡¯t expect this person to escape.¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know he had avoided yet another disaster.


    At present, he was swimming freely in the sea, simulating the demonic turtle bloodline and breathing underwater.


    It made him feel like a fish in the water, exploring the mysterious bottom of the sea.


    As he got further and further away from the surface, the number of aquatic creatures around him began to increase.


    He even saw some buildings that were completely different from those on land. The bottom of the sea had a unique style, as the buildings resembled bird nests.


    This was a different world.


    ¡°There¡¯s still some distance¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng compared the coordinates recorded in the Human Emperor Ring.


    He found that there was still quite a distance. He had no other thoughts and could only continue swimming forward.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng encountered a situation after swimming for a while.


    A shark stopped him.


    ¡°Human? No! It¡¯s from that bale of turtles! How dare you appear in this area?¡±


    Sha Jiu looked displeased.


    Seeing that someone blocked his path, Zhou Feng immediately frowned.


    Then, he scrutinized the shark in front of him.


    Actually, the shark, other than having a shark head and a few fins on its back, was identical to a human.


    Its cultivation level was probably only at the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t they say that only those that have reached the Purple Mansion realm are able to transform? But why has this Soul Altar shark managed to transform?¡¯


    Although the transformation wasn¡¯t that great, it looked like it was half-human and half-shark. Additionally, it was holding an exquisite-looking trident in its hand.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t they say that the other races practically don¡¯t know how to refine weapons?¡¯


    From the looks of it, this trident seemed to be some sort of standard weapon.


    This shark in front of him was the first real aquatic creature that Zhou Feng had met.


    The ones he had met before basically had no intelligence, and they couldn¡¯t even communicate.


    ¡®Why can I understand what it¡¯s saying? Is it because of the passive Bloodline Simulation?¡¯


    Zhou Feng fell deep in thought.


    It was his first time meeting an aquatic creature, so he more or less felt a little strange.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death! All of you turtles deserve to die!¡±


    Sha Jiu noticed that Zhou Feng was ignoring him, not uttering a single word, and was enraged.


    In Sha Jiu¡¯s opinion, these Aquamarine Turtles had just retreated from this area in defeat.


    Yet, one of them dare to appear again? Wasn¡¯t this a deliberate provocation!?


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    When Zhou Feng noticed that Sha Jiu was about to make a move, he immediately outpaced him and attacked first.


    The Invincible Avatar appeared!


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t use his full strength because his passive Bloodline Simulation was in effect.


    However, it was enough to deal with a small Soul Altar aquatic creature.


    The back of a towering giant turtle slowly appeared, and a robust thick aura spread in all directions.


    A huge pressure suddenly assaulted Sha Jiu. It felt like a huge mountain was pressing on his body. ¡°This!?¡±


    The change in the avatar was something Zhou Feng had not expected.


    His avatar was originally an illusory emperor, but now it had turned into a towering giant turtle.


    The passive Bloodline Simulation was actually so powerful? Even the avatar had changed!?


    ¡°General class!¡±


    Sha Jiu¡¯s expression instantly changed. He had not expected that the turtle in front of him was actually a Daemon General (Purple Mansion demonic beast).


    ¡°You won¡¯t succeed!¡±


    For some reason, Sha Jiu went crazy. His eyes turned red as his body exuded a wild aura.


    He wanted to fight Zhou Feng to the death!


    Zhou Feng had wanted to beat the shark and ask what was going on at the bottom of the sea.


    But now, it seemed that he couldn¡¯t do that.


    There was no other way. He could only get rid of the shark.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was still indestructible even in the sea.


    A simple punch directly turned Sha Jiu into meat paste.


    Scarlet blood instantly filled the surrounding seawater.


    ¡®How troublesome¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng found it somewhat troublesome that he had no information about this place and had no idea how the aquatic creatures communicated with each other.


    The Human Emperor¡¯s land of inheritance happened to be at the bottom of the sea, so he couldn¡¯t kill his way over like this.


    If he killed his way over, the risk would be too


    great.


    He could only take one step at a time right now and treat this as another experiential training session.


    Surprisingly, the Spiritual Qi density at the bottom of the sea was not low, while the further down he went, the stronger the pressure on his body would be. This seemed to be of some help in tempering his body.


    Perhaps, it would allow his body to take another step forward.


    What¡¯s more, he could look for Malevolent Earth Qi while he was at it.


    ¡®I need even more violent Malevolent Earth Qi now in order to stimulate my body!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had already depleted the Malevolent Earth Qi Core, so his cultivation of the Human Emperor Scripture had already entered a state of stagnation.


    If he wanted to continue cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture now, he had to find a new source of Malevolent Earth Qi.


    Moreover, this source of Malevolent Earth Qi had to be more violent and ferocious, or it would not work on his physical body at all.


    ¡°Chieftain! Chieftain! You¡¯re finally back!¡±


    Zhou Feng was considering what he should do next.


    A flattering voice came from behind him.


    Chieftain?


    Was he calling him?


    Zhou Feng turned his head and saw a person who looked very similar to the Turtle Prime Minister swimming toward him.


    ¡°Turtle Prime Minister?¡±


    The figure in front of him looked very similar to the Turtle Prime Minister. He looked like an ordinary old man and had a human body.


    He had a huge shell on his back, was very short, and had a hunchback, resembling the Turtle Prime Minister.


    He looked exactly like the Turtle Prime Minister of the Journey to the West!

 Chapter 274 - Leaping over the Dragon Gate

    Chapter 274 Leaping over the Dragon Gate


    ¡®Where did this old thing come from?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the person who resembled the Turtle Prime Minister and was a little surprised.


    He hadn¡¯t noticed how he had gotten close just now.


    Under normal circumstances, no one nearby could escape Zhou Feng¡¯s perception.


    However, the Turtle Prime Minister seemed to have been lurking around for a long time before he suddenly jumped out.


    ¡°Chieftain, you are finally back! Our Aquamarine Turtle Tribe is too miserable!¡± Gui Jiusan said as he activated the bloodline in his body.


    This bloodline aura was actually similar to the demonic sea turtle that Zhou Feng had simulated.


    No! It could even be said that it was exactly the same.


    ¡®Is it because of the bloodline?¡¯


    ¡°Who is your Chieftain? I don¡¯t even know you!¡±


    Zhou Feng was cautious and did not trust Gui Jiusan.


    Instead, he used his aura to lock onto Gui Jiusan.


    Gui Jiusan immediately felt a terrifying pressure.


    ¡°Ancestor, don¡¯t joke around!¡±


    Sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s vigilance, Gui Jiusan tried to activate his bloodline aura again.


    However, Zhou Feng did not react at all.


    This made Gui Jiusan feel helpless.


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! Why is this happening?¡¯


    Under normal circumstances, the ancestor should have quickly accepted him after sensing the bloodline aura.


    As long as aquatic creatures shared the same bloodline, both sides would let down their guard. This was the tacit understanding between the parties of the same race.


    The bloodline aura was something that couldn¡¯t be faked, and what Zhou Feng was displaying right now was the aura of an Aquamarine Turtle General.


    To Gui Jiusan, Zhou Feng was his ancestor.


    Unlike humans, most of the other races were basically separated by bloodline.


    Strength was separated by seniority.


    Simply put, as long as they had the same bloodline, they would immediately have the trust of the folks of their own race.


    Then, the stronger ones would be the ancestors and the elders.


    Under normal circumstances, the stronger one was, the older one should be.


    The aquatic creatures were the same as the demi-humans. Normally, they didn¡¯t need to cultivate; they just needed time.


    Their cultivation would slowly rise, and they would reach the limit of their bloodlines.


    This was completely different from the complicated relationship of the human race. Gui Jiusan kept stimulating his bloodline as if he was hinting at something. Zhou Feng frowned slightly. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    From his perception, Gui Jiusan didn¡¯t seem to have any malicious intent. Instead, he had an inexplicable trust in him.


    He had never encountered this situation before, so he could only see what was going on first.


    ¡°Chieftain! Isn¡¯t it almost time to jump through the dragon gate? So¡­¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude had eased up, Gui Jiusan recounted to Zhou Feng everything that had happened to the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe recently.


    It turned out that there was a once-in-a-dozen-years grand event in the Southern Sea.


    It was called the Dragon Gate Festival.


    All the aquatic tribes in the Southern Sea could participate in this festival during this period.


    All the aquatic tribes had the chance to jump through the dragon gate like a carp, stimulate the true dragon bloodline in their bodies, and then ascend to the sky in one step.


    They could enter the Dragon Palace and enjoy the Dragon Palace¡¯s offerings.


    ¡®Jump through the dragon gate? There¡¯s actually such a grand event?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had never heard of this so-called Dragon Gate Festival.


    He didn¡¯t expect that there would be such a grand event in the sea.


    ¡°What¡¯s the exact situation of this Dragon Gate Festival?¡±


    He was very interested in this so-called Dragon Gate Festival.


    Was it true or false that it could stimulate the so-called true dragon bloodline? And would the people of the Dragon Palace be so generous?


    Such an event was held every few decades, helping the many aquatic tribes to stimulate their bloodlines for free?


    According to normal logic, the Dragon Palace should have kept such a treasure tightly hidden.


    They would only use it for the Dragon Palace without letting others know.


    This was the usual thinking of most elite organizations in this world.


    ¡°I was wondering why you were so vigilant! So you came to the Southern Sea from another place!¡±


    Gui Jiusan instantly understood what was going on upon hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s question.


    For the Southern Sea¡¯s aquatic tribes, the Dragon Gate Festival was a first-class event.


    Basically, all local aquatic tribes and creatures knew about this event.


    Since Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know about it, Gui Jiusan assumed it was definitely because he had just arrived in the Southern Sea from another place.


    That was why he was so vigilant.


    Zhou Feng noticed that Gui Jiusan was deep in thought, but he didn¡¯t say anything.


    It was not bad to have such a local expert explain the ins and outs to him. In any case, he was blind at the moment. He didn¡¯t know what was going on at all.


    ¡°Ancestor, why don¡¯t we talk while walking? Otherwise, the experts of the Ghost Shark Tribe will come!¡±


    Gui Jiusan first sought Zhou Feng¡¯s opinion.


    Zhou Feng had just killed a Ghost Shark clan, so it was not appropriate to stay here.


    The Ghost Shark experts were definitely rushing there.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Zhou Feng agreed unhesitantly.


    After all, given his circumstances, it was not realistic to swim directly to the Dragon Palace.


    He might as well find out what exactly was going on first.


    With the passive Bloodline Simulation and Underwater Breathing, Zhou Feng felt that he could pretend to be the ancestor of the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe for the time being.


    As Gui Jiusan spoke as they walked, Zhou Feng got a basic understanding of the Dragon Gate Festival.


    It turned out that there was really a dragon gate in the Dragon Palace.


    It seemed to be a natural dao artifact that had been in the Southern Sea for who knew how many years.


    As long as one had a trace of dragon bloodline in their body, they could purify their bloodline through this dragon gate. And because of the nature of the dragons, the current aquatic creatures more or less all had a trace of true dragon bloodline in their bodies. It was just that the true dragon bloodline was so thin that it was hardly noteworthy.


    Therefore, in theory, almost all the Southern Sea aquatic creatures that had awakened the true dragon bloodline were eligible to take a leap through the dragon gate.


    It was rumored that the current Southern Sea Dragon Sovereign was once a sea snake.


    It was because he had leaped over the dragon gate and stimulated the true dragon bloodline in his body that a dragon horn had grown on his head. In the end, he became the current Southern Sea Dragon Sovereign.


    It was precisely this story that inspired all the aquatic creatures in the Southern Sea. They were all fantasizing that they could cross the dragon gate and transform into a true dragon.


    The more Zhou Feng listened to Gui Jiusan¡¯s description, the more he felt that something was wrong.


    It wasn¡¯t that his heart was dark, but that the story was too simple.


    Was it that easy to awaken the true dragon bloodline?


    And even if one awakened the thin true dragon bloodline in their body, they could transform into a true dragon?


    Compared to this kind of ascending-to-the-heavens-in-one-step scenario, Zhou Feng preferred to cultivate step by step slowly.


    Nonetheless, this so-called Dragon Gate Festival might be his chance.


    Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for Zhou Feng to get close to the Dragon Palace.


    But now, he could get close to the Dragon Palace by participating in the Dragon Gate Festival.


    Then, he would look for the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage and see if he could find some things. They reached the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe¡¯s current territory as Zhou Feng pondered.

 Chapter 275 - Xuanwu Armor

    Chapter 275 Xuanwu Armor


    The Aquamarine Turtle Tribe¡¯s territory was a relatively remote area of the sea.


    There were large kelp beds nearby, and they seemed to be specially cultivated.


    It was like a farm, with some kelps being cultivated individually.


    From a distance, it looked like a marine farm.


    Apart from the first time, some big sea turtles hadn¡¯t transformed yet.


    If Zhou Feng weren¡¯t mistaken, those giant sea turtles were grazing some fish and shrimp.


    Such a scene made Zhou Feng feel very curious.


    These sea turtles could not only grow kelp but also graze in this sea area.


    It was almost the same as the humans on land.


    ¡°Hurry, hurry, hurry! Gather our tribesmen! The ancestor of our tribe is back!¡±


    The moment Gui Jiusan returned, he immediately gathered his tribesmen.


    What the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe needed most was not something else but a backbone.


    The Ghost Shark Tribe had defeated the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe in the battle not long ago. Not only did they lose their original territory, but they even lost their tribe¡¯s treasury.


    Theip Chieftain had died on the spot, and less than ten elites were left.


    Now, the entire Aquamarine Turtle Tribe was in a dispirited state.


    Without external help, it would be almost impossible to survive in this cruel sea.


    After all, their tribe was only proficient in planting and grazing.


    This was a skill that the other aquatic tribes did not have.


    With this skill, the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe did not need to fight at all to obtain enough food.


    ¡°Chieftain!?¡±


    ¡°Does our Aquamarine Turtle Tribe still have a Chieftain?¡±


    Although they did not know what was going on, many people still gathered here.


    Soon, a group of Aquamarine Turtles surrounded Zhou Feng.


    Among them, there were only a dozen or so who had transformed, and there were only a few dozen who had not.


    They could be considered all the tribesmen in the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe.


    From the looks of it, it was indeed a little shabby.


    A few dozen sea turtles were staring at Zhou Feng, and this feeling was bizarre.


    ¡°Chieftain! Please save us!¡±


    Gui Jiusan was the first to speak, and the moment he opened his mouth, he asked Zhou Feng to save them.


    It was clear that he wanted to put him under peer pressure.


    He did not expect that this old turtle still had some tricks up his sleeve.


    However, Zhou Feng did not react at all. He was not a genuine Aquamarine Turtle, so he didn¡¯t have any feelings for them.


    There was no way he would waste his energy to help these sea turtles.


    If he was unhappy, he could leave at any time.


    There was no need to explain so much.


    The atmosphere immediately turned cold due to Zhou Feng¡¯s lack of reaction.


    The other sea turtles didn¡¯t know what to do.


    In their eyes, Zhou Feng was a powerful member of their race, but this member didn¡¯t seem to think much of them.


    In addition, these Aquamarine Turtles were generally slow-witted.


    This was kind of awkward.


    ¡°Our tribe actually still has an inheritance! As long as¡­¡±


    Compared to the other slow-witted tribesmen, Gui Jiusan appeared extremely intelligent.


    One had to know that compared to the human race, the intelligence of the other races was basically lower.


    The intelligence of aquatic creatures, or rather demonic and spirit beasts, could only catch up to the human race only upon transforming to Daemons.


    Their brain capacity was relatively low before transforming, regardless of whether it came demonic or spirit beasts.


    This was actually one of the advantages of the human race. Their bodies might not be as strong as the other races¡¯, but their intelligence was far superior.


    ¡°An inheritance?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately realized that Gui Jiusan was negotiating with him.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This is a treasure passed down from generations of my Aquamarine Turtle Tribe! This should be of some help to the Chieftain!¡±


    A wisp of wisdom flashed through Gui Jiusan¡¯s eyes at this moment. This was a stark contrast to the dazed sea turtles around him.


    ¡®The inheritance of the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe?¡¯


    The trace of interest that had just risen in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart vanished instantly when he heard this.


    This was because this kind of inheritance was generally limited to a race¡¯s bloodline.


    Although he could rely on the passive Bloodline Simulation to simulate the Aquamarine Turtle bloodline, he wasn¡¯t an Aquamarine Turtle. The inheritance of the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe didn¡¯t seem to be of much use to him.


    ¡°I don¡¯t have time to waste!¡±


    A hint of impatience appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    Zhou Feng had come here to find the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage and the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Although he felt like a fish in water due to the passive Bloodline Simulation and Underwater Breathing, Zhou Feng was not a real aquatic creature.


    He was not used to staying underwater for a long time. It was better to end this trip as soon as possible.


    After hearing his conditions, Gui Jiusan did not expect Zhou Feng to be unmoved. He even showed a hint of impatience.


    Now, Gui Jiusan understood that he had to bring out something good.


    Only then could he persuade Zhou Feng to help the current Aquamarine Turtle Tribe.


    Moreover, this was Gui Jiusan¡¯s rare opportunity.


    It was not easy for him to meet someone of his race.


    Although the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe had some foundation, they would not dare to ask non-acquainted experts under normal circumstances.


    In that case, the best-case scenario would be to be annexed and become the vassal of the other aquatic tribes.


    The worst-case scenario would be the death of the entire tribe.


    The competition in the sea was that cruel.


    It was only today that he was lucky enough to meet a member of his race who came to the Southern Sea from another place.


    This made Gui Jiusan summon up his courage and exchange the tribe¡¯s legacy for Zhou Feng to protect the current Aquamarine Turtle Tribe.


    Zhou Feng should not be as ruthless as the other aquatic creatures.


    After thinking for a while, Gui Jiusan looked at the dazed sea turtles around him.


    There were also those carefree little sea turtles playing around.


    He gnashed his teeth. ¡°If the ancestor protects us for a period, I am willing to offer a scale of the Xuanwu armor!¡±


    Gui Jiusan was showing his cards now.


    At the same time, his aura changed, and he turned into a refined and wise old man.


    Zhou Feng finally understood that Gui Jiusan was just pretending.


    There were also some old ancestors who had shouted on purpose. The purpose was probably to support Zhou Feng so that he would lower his guard.


    But what shocked Zhou Feng the most was that there were the Black Tortoise scales on the old turtle¡¯s body.


    ¡°Black Tortoise?¡±


    Zhou Feng confirmed again.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! They¡¯re from the Black Tortoise!¡±


    Gui Jiusan automatically lowered his voice.


    The Black Tortoise was also known as Xuanwu. It was a combination of tortoise and snake and a powerful spirit beast.


    The first Human Emperor had even fought with it in the past.


    The Human Emperor had been supreme, suppressing the world at that time. Other than killing true dragons to make the nine-dragon robe, he had also wanted to make a battle armor, and the scales on the Black Tortoise¡¯s body were the best choice.


    Therefore, the Human Emperor had fought with the Black Tortoise before.


    However, the Human Emperor had not succeeded at that time, and the Black Tortoise disappeared after that fight.


    This was a legend that Zhou Feng had accidentally stumbled upon when he was looking for the Human Emperor Scripture.


    A piece of Black Tortoise¡¯s scale armor was actually on a big sea turtle.


    No wonder this big sea turtle looked so much like the Turtle Prime Minister. He must have had some other fortuitous encounter!

 Chapter 276 - The Mysterious Divination Technique

    Chapter 276 The Mysterious Divination Technique


    The scale of the Xuanwu armor?¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately hesitated.


    Should he agree or not?


    The scale of the Xuanwu armor sounded good, but it was very likely to be of no use to him.


    Moreover, whether or not this was the Xuanwu armor, he could not make a decision before seeing it.


    For this, he had to expend a lot of effort to protect a group of large sea turtles.


    This didn¡¯t seem to be worth it.


    But from another point of view, this might be a chance to integrate into the aquatic creatures.


    Previously, Zhou Feng was equivalent to a foreign farmer in this water region; nobody knew him.


    However, if he became this tribe¡¯s Chieftain, it would be equivalent to obtaining an identity verification.


    The Aquamarine Turtle Tribe would be the best cover if anyone investigated him.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng could completely abandon these sea turtles if the situation was not right.


    There was no need to feel any psychological burden.


    To be honest, he was already considered more rational and reasonable for not directly robbing them.


    Moreover, Gui Jiusan could also be considered a local snake, meaning he should be privy to a lot of information and secrets. These should be things he had learned from growing up here.


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng agreed.


    ¡°Okay! I will protect you for the time being!¡±


    Gui Jiusan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw him agree.


    This period had been too stressful for Gui Jiusan.


    It was hard for them to survive in this sea without a Daemon General¡¯s protection.


    After all, the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe had a lot of things. Fortunately, everything was as Gui Jiusan had predicted.


    ¡®I wasted a scale of the Xuanwu armor for this chance!


    Thinking of this, Gui Jiusan felt his heart ache.


    That¡¯s right! Gui Jiusan¡¯s encounter with Zhou Feng was coincidental.


    Gui Jiusan had used a divination technique, and the scale of the Xuanwu armor was the offering material.


    His divination technique revealed that a savior of the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe would appear at a certain time and place.


    At that time, he only needed to pay a certain price to protect the entire tribe temporarily.


    Gui Jiusan used divination even after Zhou Feng made his appearance.


    Gui Jiusan only appeared in front of Zhou Feng after calculating that it was a great fortune. Otherwise, he would have casually placed the safety of the tribe in the hands of a stranger.


    This was absolutely impossible.


    He had used up one scale of the Xuanwu armor, and now, he would need to give another one to Zhou Feng as a reward.


    More than half of the Xuanwu armor in Gui Jiusan¡¯s hands was gone.


    ¡°Chieftain, this way, please!¡±


    Although Zhou Feng agreed to protect the entire Aquamarine Turtle Tribe, Gui Jiusan didn¡¯t relax. Instead, he invited Zhou Feng to a small cave in the center.


    The large sea turtles that had surrounded them earlier would also slowly disperse.


    ¡°Eh? There¡¯s something like that?¡±


    Upon entering the small cave-dwelling, Zhou Feng revealed a surprised expression.


    This was because this small cave-dwelling actually suited the aesthetics of humans.


    The top of the cave-dwelling was inlaid with luminous pearls, and there were gold and silver jewelry as decorations on both sides. There were also a few pieces of furniture that looked like they were for humans to use.


    The sea turtles didn¡¯t use stools.


    ¡°Chieftain, this is the inheritance of our Aquamarine Turtle Tribe. There is also a small Water Vein in this cave-dwelling that can be used for Chieftain¡¯s cultivation.¡±


    Gui Jiusan immediately took out a small stone tablet and handed a disk formation to Zhou Feng when they entered the cave-dwelling.


    Both his tone and actions were extremely comfortable.


    ¡°If there¡¯s anything, please call out, Chieftain. There are tribesmen at the door to receive your orders at any time.


    ¡°As for the scale of the Xuanwu armor, please forgive me. It will take a few days before it can be handed over to you, Chieftain.¡±


    Gui Jiusan did not even wait for Zhou Feng to speak before he left on his own.


    He gave Zhou Feng enough time and space to digest the current situation.


    ¡®This¡­ If the Turtle Prime Minister is like this, then it¡¯s no wonder that every Dragon King has a Turtle Prime Minister!¡¯


    Gui Jiusan¡¯s actions just now had easily won Zhou Feng¡¯s favor.


    The way he advanced and retreated was very in line with his temperament.


    Zhou Feng himself preferred to be alone. He also didn¡¯t like having someone waiting by his side all the time.


    ¡®Forget it. I¡¯ll just stay here and protect them for a while.¡¯


    He shook his head and picked up the stone tablet that Gui Jiusan had left behind to study


    it.


    Although the inheritance of the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe was useless to Zhou Feng, there was no harm in taking a look.


    While Zhou Feng was studying the stone tablet, Gui Jiusan heaved a sigh of relief.


    ¡®Fortunately, the divination was spot on.¡¯


    With Zhou Feng holding down the fort, the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe was not in danger of being exterminated.


    That¡¯s right! In order to make Zhou Feng do his best, Gui Jiusan had even used divination to divine Zhou Feng¡¯s character.


    Thus, he carried out targeted service.


    In this kind of one-on-one targeted service, he had even used divination to predict the service¡¯s target.


    If Zhou Feng were still not satisfied, Gui Jiusan would go crazy.


    If Gui Jiusan¡¯s divination were not wrong, Zhou Feng would deal with the crisis they would face in three days.


    After that, the Aquamarine Turtles could continue to migrate.


    It had to be said that this divination technique was indeed mysterious.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know about Gui Jiusan¡¯s


    plan.


    This matter did not pose any risk to him anyway. If it was not possible to protect them, he could just run away.


    After all, the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage was there. He wouldn¡¯t run away every few days.


    Zhou Feng could return to the land and wait until his strength increased if there was really no other way.


    Then he could enter the sea and explore it properly.


    At present, his focus was on the stone tablet because a breathing technique was recorded on it.


    ¡°Aquamarine Breathing Technique!¡±


    This was an aura-concealing technique specially created for the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe. It could completely conceal one¡¯s aura and achieve the so-called leakless domain.


    After using the Aquamarine Breathing Technique, even cultivators one level higher than oneself would find it difficult to discover the technique¡¯s practitioner as long as the practitioner stood still.


    Previously, Gui Jiusan had used this technique to hide from Zhou Feng. He had even used this technique to cause trouble in the Ghost Shark Tribe¡¯s territory.


    ¡°Can I learn this?¡±


    Zhou Feng almost drooled when he saw this aura-concealment technique.


    He really lacked such a technique. The Shadow Concealment Gu that Leng Man left for him was already dead.


    He did not have any methods to conceal his aura now.


    If he returned to land, he would be easily discovered.


    But if he learned this Aquamarine Breathing Technique, the situation would be completely different.


    Unfortunately, only those of the Aquamarine Turtle lineage could learn the Aquamarine Breathing Technique.


    Zhou Feng was using his passive Bloodline Simulation, so he did not know if he could learn it or not.


    And this technique also required talent for one to cultivate it.


    ¡®Wait! I seem to have a passive skill! What¡¯s that passive skill called again?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly remembered a passive skill that he had obtained a long time ago.


    That passive skill seemed to be called Dao Seed.

 Chapter 277 - Butterfly Effect

    Chapter 277 Butterfly Effect


    Dao Seed: Every time you learn a martial technique, dao arts, divine ability, and so on, you have a certain chance of comprehending it directly!


    Cooldown: 1 year


    This was a passive skill that Zhou Feng had obtained a long time ago.


    However, he had almost forgotten about it because the cooldown was a full year.


    ¡°It¡¯s exactly one year now! Should I give it a try?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the skill panel and found that this passive skill could be used again.


    The question now was whether or not to waste this precious opportunity.


    Although this skill looked very powerful, it was not a 100% guarantee that Zhou Feng could learn it. There was a certain probability.


    If Zhou Feng failed, he would have to wait for another year.


    This was more or less useless, so he did not pay too much attention to this passive skill.


    ¡°Let¡¯s give it a try!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that this Aquamarine Breathing Technique was worth a try.


    If it succeeded, then it would be a huge profit.


    This was equivalent to a human acquiring the Aquamarine Turtles¡¯ innate talent.


    Then, he concentrated and started to chant the Aquamarine Breathing Technique.


    The passive Dao Seed was triggered, and Zhou Feng¡¯s soul suddenly entered an illusory state.


    Then, a Dao Seed containing the Aquamarine Breathing Technique was slowly planted in his soul.


    For a moment, countless profound meanings and laws flowed in his eyes.


    It seemed to be an instant but also a long time.


    When Zhou Feng woke up again, he realized that he had succeeded.


    ¡°I did it?¡±


    He couldn¡¯t believe it.


    It was that simple?


    Zhou Feng immediately tried to conceal his


    aura.


    When he restrained his aura, a stream of water instantly engulfed his entire body.


    At that moment, if one looked at Zhou Feng, most people would probably think that he was a rock.


    There was no aura, nor was there any temperature. He was like a dead object.


    Too strong! This Aquamarine Breathing Technique was too strong!


    Not a loss!


    By learning this Aquamarine Breathing Technique, Zhou Feng¡¯s trip was not a loss.


    Moreover, he might even obtain a scale of the Xuanwu armor.


    Zhou Feng had been on the move for such a long time, and he planned to take advantage of this period. He could rest assured and slowly polish his cultivation and physical body.


    ¡°Water Vein¡­ This is similar to the Spirit Vein on land! However, this Water Spiritual Qi is too gentle!¡±


    The small cave-dwelling that he was staying in was connected to a Water Vein, equivalent to A Spirit Vein on land.


    However, this Water Vein was relatively small and could not be compared to a Spirit Vein.


    The amount of Spiritual Qi it could provide was also extremely limited.


    To Zhou Feng, it was better than nothing.


    However, it did not matter. Because of his passive Second Heart, the upper limit of his Blood Qi had doubled.


    Therefore, this period was the time for him to temper himself.


    He slowly used the Blood Qi in his body to temper his body.


    It was time for cultivation!


    Zhou Feng, who had not cultivated in seclusion for a long time, cultivated for three days in the blink of an eye.


    Gui Jiusan had come once during this period, but he left when he saw that Zhou Feng showed no reaction.


    But this time, Gui Jiusan had no choice but to come.


    Just as Gui Jiusan had predicted, a crisis had already arrived.


    The Ghost Shark Tribe had already surrounded the cave-dwelling.


    ¡°Hmph! This time, I want to see where you¡¯ll run to! You dared to reject the Fifth Young Master¡¯s invitation!¡±


    ¡°And you¡¯re even spouting nonsense in front of the Fifth Young Master. You¡¯re simply Courting Death!¡±


    This time, the Ghost Shark Tribe had sent three Ghost Shark Generals (Purple Mansion sharks). Given Gui Jiusan¡¯s cultivation level, he definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to escape if he didn¡¯t have external help.


    Actually, it could be said that Gui Jiusan was courting death.


    Initially, the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe could be considered a decent tribe with quite a few warriors.


    Some time ago, they had been recruited by the Fifth Young Master of the Dragon Palace because of a change in the successor of the Dragon Palace.


    Normally speaking, the next Dragon Sovereign of the Dragon Palace had already been confirmed.


    It was the Eldest Young Master with the most profound Green Flood Dragon bloodline.


    Compared to the other heirs, the Eldest Young Master was way ahead. Yet, he had suddenly provoked a terrifying powerhouse on land for some reason.


    Said powerhouse had extracted his dragon tendon, causing his cultivation to drop drastically.


    This gave hope to the other heirs of the Dragon Palace.


    After that, they began to recruit subordinates.


    Later on, Gui Jiusan was also recruited by the Fifth Young Master.


    Gui Jiusan, who had just mastered the divination technique, naturally couldn¡¯t just sit there and do nothing, so he made a divination regarding the Fifth Young Master. In the end, he offended the Fifth Young Master because his words were unpleasant to hear.


    As a result, the entire Aquamarine Turtle Tribe was implicated.


    ¡®That¡¯s what the divination says. The so-called Fifth Young Master will be roasted and eaten in the future!


    ¡®If I follow that Fifth Young Master now, doesn¡¯t that mean I have a mental problem!?¡¯


    Gui Jiu San cursed in his heart.


    Ever since his divinations had been verified a few times, Gui Jiusan was highly confident in his divination skills.


    Also, there was an expert in the cave-dwelling


    Gui Jiusan had divined Zhou Feng a few times.


    However, every time he divined about his strength, it became extremely vague.


    Still, Gui Jiusan was certain that Zhou Feng was definitely not weak.


    ¡°Is trouble coming?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt waves of killing intent.


    No matter what, he was indebted to these large sea turtles. Now was the time for him to make his move.


    ¡°Hurry up and surrender! Don¡¯t tell me you still think that there¡¯s someone who can save


    you?¡±


    Zhou Feng had just walked out of the cave when he heard someone clamoring.


    The surrounding area was filled with trembling large sea turtles.


    ¡®Let¡¯s end this quickly¡­¡¯


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body surged with this thought in mind.


    Even in the depths of the sea, the golden Blood Qi did not lose its luster.


    His peerless aura suddenly rose.


    There was no hint of warning, nor was there a single thing to say.


    Most of the Ghost Sharks were stunned by his


    aura.


    One punch!


    There was no ear-piercing sonic boom at the bottom of the sea, but the bodies of the leading Ghost Sharks instantly exploded.


    ¡°What happened!?¡±


    This was the only thought in the minds of the Ghost Shark Generals. They couldn¡¯t even figure out what had happened and only felt a chill.


    The attack¡¯s speed was so fast that even Gui Jiusan was scared.


    The crisis that made Gui Jiusan feel like he was facing a great enemy dissipated just like that.


    There wasn¡¯t even a ripple.


    What scared Gui Jiusan the most was that Zhou Feng had directly attacked without even communicating with him.


    ¡°Turtle Prime Minister! Come here. I have something I want to know!¡±


    Before Gui Jiusan could react, he heard Zhou Feng¡¯s voice.


    ¡°Turtle Prime Minister? Are you calling me? It should be!¡±


    Gui Jiu San, who had suddenly become more stressed, felt a bit uneasy. He didn¡¯t even know how to deal with Zhou Feng.


    ¡®If I remember correctly, he also has General-rank cultivation! He was dealing with the Ghost Shark Generals, so how did he manage to kill them so easily? Just how strong is he!?¡¯

 Chapter 278 - Makeover

    Chapter 278 Makeover


    Gui Jiusan nervously followed Zhou Feng. He didn¡¯t know what would be waiting for him.


    ¡°How much do you know about the Dragon Palace?¡±


    Zhou Feng asked about the specific matters of the Dragon Palace.


    This information was crucial to him and asking a local such as Gui Jiusan was the best choice.


    ¡°The Dragon Palace?¡±


    Gui Jiusan¡¯s nervous heart was immediately relieved upon hearing this.


    If it was just a question, Gui Jiusan could still answer it.


    Through a simple inquiry, Zhou Feng learned a lot about the Dragon Palace.


    First of all, there were a lot of guards inside and outside the Dragon Palace.


    A great formation surrounded the Dragon Palace, so ordinary people couldn¡¯t sneak inside.


    Although it was impossible to sneak inside, the Dragon Palace was currently recruiting warriors.


    As long as one had the bloodline of a true dragon, they could take part in the Dragon Palace¡¯s trials.


    Once one passed the trials, they could become a member of the Dragon Palace.


    ¡°You only need to reveal your bloodline?¡± Zhou Feng asked.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. You only need to reveal your bloodline aura. After all, one can¡¯t imitate the bloodline aura,¡± Gui Jiusan answered confidently.


    In this sea, one¡¯s bloodline aura was actually a pass.


    In many cases, one only needed to reveal their bloodline aura to prove their identity.


    This time, Zhou Feng had a general understanding of the situation. ¡°Oh right! Chieftain! This is the Xuanwu scale! I hope you like it.¡±


    Taking advantage of the momentary silence, Gui Jiusan handed a scale.


    This scale was as big as a washbasin.


    Moreover, a sense of heaviness arose spontaneously.


    It was just a mere scale, but it made Zhou Feng feel as if it was as heavy as a mountain.


    Was this really the Xuanwu scale!


    Zhou Feng received the scale and immediately saw countless natural patterns. The patterns on the scale seemed to be the laws between heaven and earth.


    It gave people a mysterious feeling, but nothing could be seen.


    ¡°Please protect our tribe for a few more days!


    ¡°Our tribe will not take long to complete the relocation!¡±


    After handing the scale to Zhou Feng, Gui Jiusan did not wait for him to speak before he took the next step.


    He asked Zhou Feng to protect the Aquamarine Turtle Tribe for a few more days until they completed the relocation.


    The timing was perfect.


    It happened to be when Zhou Feng received the black turtle scale.


    Zhou Feng thought for a while and agreed. ¡°Sure!¡±


    Anyway, he needed to cultivate for a few more days before heading to the Dragon Palace.


    Besides, he wouldn¡¯t maintain his current identity as an Aquamarine Turtle.


    The passive Bloodline Simulation could record three bloodlines, so he planned to change his identity and sneak into the Dragon Palace.


    Gui Jiusan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhou Feng was carefree as ever.


    Then, he started to get busy crazily.


    As for Zhou Feng, he returned to the cave-dwelling to cultivate and study the Xuanwu scale.


    Another three days passed¡­


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t intend to stay here anymore.


    Meanwhile, Gui Jiusan finished everything during this period. To be honest, he admired Gui Jiusan. This was the only person he had met that made him extremely relaxed.


    He was like a capable assistant who had been following him for many years.


    Most importantly, Gui Jiusan knew what to do and what not to do.


    Because of this, Zhou Feng had not treated Gui Jiusan with animosity. Instead, he treated him like a friend.


    ¡°Chieftain, goodbye. This is a gift from our Aquamarine Turtle Tribe. Please don¡¯t mind


    it!¡±


    Before Zhou Feng left, Gui Jiusan handed over a shell.


    This shell was a storage spiritual artifact, similar to a storage ring.


    He didn¡¯t even give Zhou Feng a chance to reject it.


    After Gui Jiusan handed the shell to him, he left immediately.


    ¡®Is it because he is aware of my actual combat strength?¡¯


    Zhou Feng came back to his senses when he saw the shell in his hand.


    Gui Jiusan must have learned his actual combat strength through some means. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have fawned on him so deliberately.


    It was tough to measure Zhou Feng¡¯s actual combat strength, so others often underestimated him.


    If one didn¡¯t personally fight with Zhou Feng, they wouldn¡¯t be able to notice that his passive buffs sent his strength through the roof.


    In the eyes of others, he was just an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator.


    He had never cultivated any special techniques, while he gave off an average aura. It was precisely because of this that many people completely looked down on Zhou Feng.


    It wasn¡¯t worth paying attention to a mere vagabond cultivator who had just broken through to the Purple Mansion at all.


    It was everyone¡¯s instinct to watch the dishes fall.


    It was truly rare for someone like Gui Jiusan to lick Zhou Feng¡¯s boots from start to finish.


    Thus, Zhou Feng suspected that Gui Jiusan was aware of his actual combat strength.


    ¡®Forget it! He doesn¡¯t have any ill intentions toward me, anyway. Let¡¯s change my identity first.¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think too much about it.


    Gui Jiusan didn¡¯t have any ill intentions, nor did he know that Zhou Feng was a human.


    To Zhou Feng, it was more important to find the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage.


    ¡®Azure Sea Snake¡­ The bloodline contains a trace of the Flood Dragon bloodline. I can use this identity to sneak into the Dragon Palace.¡¯


    Zhou Feng had secretly killed an Azure Sea Snake during this period to obtain its bloodline.


    Zhou Feng carried out a bloodline simulation, and his appearance changed in less than a second.


    When he was simulating the Aquamarine Turtle, his face had some scales on it, and his back was slightly hunched.


    Now that he was simulating the Azure Sea Snake, his entire temperament became a little colder.


    His appearance didn¡¯t change much, and he was still as handsome as before. There wasn¡¯t much of a difference between him and a human other than his smoky eyes.


    ¡°Aquamarine Breathing Technique!¡±


    After simulating the Azure Sea Snake bloodline, he immediately used the Aquamarine Breathing Technique.


    Zhou Feng wanted to see if the Aquamarine Breathing Technique could be used before simulating the Azure Sea Snake bloodline.


    ¡®I can use it, but the effect has weakened¡­¡¯


    Surprisingly, the Aquamarine Breathing Technique was still effective.


    But the disadvantage was that its effect was weakened a lot. It wasn¡¯t as perfect as when simulating the Aquamarine Turtle bloodline.


    Even so, Zhou Feng was still satisfied.


    As long as it could be used!


    ¡®Then I¡¯ll head to the Dragon Palace¡­¡¯


    Gui Jiusan had provided him with enough information, so he was not as blind as before. He planned to go straight to the Dragon Palace, check where the land of inheritance might be, and find a chance to find the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s second half.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s goal had always been the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s second half.

 Chapter 279 - The Dragon Sovereigns Son-in-Law

    Chapter 279 The Dragon Sovereign¡¯s Son-in-Law


    When Zhou Feng changed his appearance and headed straight for the Dragon Palace, the Ghost Shark tribesmen finally arrived from their territory.


    However, they didn¡¯t get anything except some scraps.


    What drove the Ghost Shark tribesmen crazy was that they didn¡¯t find any trace of the murderer.


    Zhou Feng had changed his bloodline and appearance, so the Ghost Shark Tribe couldn¡¯t find him.


    As for Gui Jiusan¡­ He was good at divination, so finding him was way more challenging.


    Faced with the empty scene, the Ghost Shark Chieftain could only stay where he was, unable to fly into a rage.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were truly opened.


    As he got closer to the Dragon Palace, the surroundings at the bottom of the sea became more and more prosperous.


    Groups of buildings began to appear, and then all sorts of aquatic creatures began to gather together.


    If it weren¡¯t for the water surrounding them, Zhou Feng would have thought that he was in Heavenly Star City.


    No! This place was even more prosperous than Heavenly Star City.


    In addition, the surrounding aquatic creatures were all very powerful.


    Daemon Generals (Purple Mansion realm) were everywhere, and mighty Daemon Kings (Divine Ability realm) would appear from time to time.


    ¡®Transformation Grass?¡¯


    At this moment, Zhou Feng finally understood why many aquatic creatures that hadn¡¯t reached the Purple Mansion realm were able to transform.


    ¡®So it¡¯s because they had consumed the Transformation Grass.¡¯


    Transformation Grass was a rare spiritual herb on land, yet it was extremely common at the bottom of the sea.


    It was even planted in large quantities, causing countless aquatic creatures to be able to transform before reaching the Purple Mansion realm.


    However, consuming the Transformation Grass would cause imperfect transformations.


    Seeing a creature with the head of a prawn and the body of a human was a common sight.


    The perfect transformation of aquatic creatures was extremely rare in the sea.


    This was because the perfect transformation required fine and strong control over one¡¯s soul power.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng¡¯s current appearance was considered the perfect transformation. He had almost no characteristics of an aquatic creature, and he looked just like a human.


    Coupled with Zhou Feng¡¯s handsome face, he attracted the attention of many aquatic creatures.


    Zhou Feng had not been as handsome in the past.


    As more and more aquatic creatures gathered around Zhou Feng, he finally felt the trouble caused by being too handsome.


    Cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture had a charm boost, which could repair some of the body¡¯s flaws.


    It allowed the physical body to evolve toward a more perfect direction.


    In addition, Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Amorous Prodigal Heart increased his charm.


    Just by walking in the sea, he had attracted countless gazes.


    Such a high profile made Zhou Feng extremely uncomfortable.


    After all, he loved keeping a low profile, not attracting anyone¡¯s attention, and blending with the crowd.


    But now, it felt like countless spotlights were shining on Zhou Feng. This feeling was uncomfortable.


    ¡®It¡¯s right in front!


    The Human Emperor Ring¡¯s signal intensified the closer he got, and he confirmed that the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage was right in front.


    And that place was the location of the Dragon Palace.


    As expected, the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage was really in the Dragon Palace.


    The Dragon Palace happened to be built on the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage. If there was no connection, Zhou Feng would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.


    ¡°The Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage is very likely to have been explored. But these aquatic creatures should not be interested in the things of the human race¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng had already prepared for the worst


    ¡ªthe Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage may have already been explored.


    Still, it was not to the extent of despair because the human race¡¯s cultivation system was somewhat different from that of the aquatic creatures.


    Therefore, aquatic creatures might not necessarily find the human race¡¯s things helpful.


    Zhou Feng might be able to pick up some good things nearby.


    At this time, Zhou Feng recalled there were many trading points nearby.


    Although the vicinity of the Dragon Palace was very prosperous and even seemed to be on par with Heavenly Star City, the way the aquatic creatures traded was still very primitive.


    Bartering was their way of trading things!


    Perhaps he could try his luck at those trading points.


    ¡°Eh? Where are you from? Why haven¡¯t I seen you before?¡±


    Just when Zhou Feng wanted to try his luck, a puzzled voice came from behind.


    Zhou Feng saw a young man looking at him with a puzzled face.


    This youth¡¯s facial characteristics resembled Zhou Feng¡¯s. His body was emitting a cold aura, his face was covered with many azure scales, and his pupils were vertical.


    This was someone from the Azure Sea Snake Tribe!


    ¡®His transformation is so perfect! Logically speaking, I should have an impression of him. It¡¯s impossible for me not to have an impression of such a genius!¡¯ The confusion on Qing Wu¡¯s face became even deeper.


    Although he could not know all of his fellow tribesmen, he would not forget someone like Zhou Feng, an Azure Sea Snake Daemon with such a perfect transformation.


    Surprisingly, Qing Wu had no impression of Zhou Feng at all. This was bizarre.


    ¡°I¡¯ve just successfully transformed.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face didn¡¯t change upon facing such a situation, and his tone was somewhat cold.


    ¡°Just transformed? So that¡¯s how it is! It seems that this is my fellow tribesman¡¯s first time participating in the Dragon Gate Festival. Why don¡¯t I guide you around my fellow tribesman?¡±


    After hearing his words, Qing Wu didn¡¯t doubt him.


    After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s throbbing bloodline aura couldn¡¯t be faked. Therefore, Qing Wu didn¡¯t suspect that Zhou Feng was an impostor.


    He even enthusiastically introduced the Dragon Gate Festival to Zhou Feng.


    Since Zhou Feng appeared here at this time, other than participating in the Dragon Gate Festival, it was impossible for him to have other motives.


    ¡®I didn¡¯t expect to meet such a perfect shapeshifting tribesman!


    From the looks of it, he might be in conflict with the main lineage. I wonder if there¡¯s a chance to rope him in¡­¡¯


    Qing Wu was a little excited when he saw Zhou Feng¡¯s cold expression.


    This was because Zhou Feng was most likely in conflict with the main lineage.


    Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have come alone to participate in the Dragon Gate Festival. He didn¡¯t even have a single attendant by his side.


    If such a genius could be roped in¡­ then it would be great for Qing Wu¡¯s branch.


    Qing Wu had already imagined everything without needing Zhou Feng to say anything.


    Originally, Zhou Feng had planned how to deal with Qing Wu, but from the looks of it, he didn¡¯t even need to say anything.


    ¡°Alright!¡± Zhou Feng¡¯s reply was a simple word.


    In order to avoid saying too much and making too many mistakes, he could only change his previous plan.


    ¡°Fellow tribesman! Let me tell you! This year¡¯s Dragon Gate Festival is a bit different!¡±


    Those with strength would always have a bad temper. Thus, Zhou Feng¡¯s coldness didn¡¯t dissatisfy Qing Wu. Instead, he became even more enthusiastic.


    ¡°The old Dragon Sovereign is planning to recruit a husband to join the Dragon Palace before the Dragon Gate Festival!


    ¡°You must know that the Fifth Princess of the Dragon Palace has the strongest true dragon bloodline among all the sons and daughters of the Dragon Sovereign!


    ¡°Moreover, the Fifth Princess¡¯s appearance, figure, and personality¡­¡±


    As Qing Wu spoke, the saliva at the edge of his mouth flowed down.


    ¡®The Dragon Sovereign wants to recruit a husband?


    This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly had a bad premonition.


    Although he wasn¡¯t very interested, there was a hint of interest on his face.


    Given his current identity, he should be showing this kind of expression at this time.

 Chapter 280 - The Feeling of Arrogance

    Chapter 280 The Feeling of Arrogance


    Originally, Zhou Feng did not want to pay attention to Qing Wu.


    But he knew that almost all the forces in this sea were connected by blood.


    Coincidentally, he chose to imitate the Azure Sea Snake.


    If he acted too abnormally, he would easily be suspected.


    Moreover, the identity of Qing Wu seemed a little unusual.


    There were still quite a number of followers behind him, and Zhou Feng was unfamiliar with the place and other reasons. Thus, he chose to sit tight and act accordingly.


    ¡°Come, come, come! Let¡¯s return to the base first! The Dragon Gate Festival has only just begun!¡±


    Qing Wu pulled Zhou Feng back to Azure Sea Snakes¡¯ base. During this process, Zhou Feng also received a lot of information.


    For example, some unspoken rules of the Dragon Gate Festival.


    The Dragon Gate Festival consumed a lot of Spiritual Qi.


    If one wanted to purify their bloodline and allow it to undergo a transformation, it was best to fight for the first position.


    As time went on, the Spiritual Qi of the Dragon Gate was almost consumed.


    When it was time to transform the bloodline, the energy would be insufficient.


    Therefore, before the Dragon Gate Festival, all the tribes in the Southern Sea would have a competition.


    The main purpose was to rank their positions.


    However, the true bigshots, such as the Dragon Palace¡¯s people or a few powerful aquatic tribes, didn¡¯t need to take this step. The Azure Sea Snake Tribe could only be considered a small tribe in the Southern Sea.


    There were not many experts in the tribe, so they had the advantage of being united.


    Because of this, Qing Wu took the initiative to greet Zhou Feng.


    Then, Zhou Feng heard a very crucial piece of information.


    ¡°Human Stone Tablet?¡± Zhou Feng¡¯s tone rose slightly.


    Seeing that he was interested in this, Qing Wu also told him about the recent events.


    ¡°Yes! Human Stone Tablet! I heard that it was found in the Dragon Palace¡¯s mystic realm!


    ¡°I heard that there are some puppets in this mystic realm, and the core place is still not controlled by the Dragon Palace¡¯s people!¡±


    The Dragon Palace¡¯s mystic realm was very famous in the entire Southern Sea.


    The Dragon Palace could get a lot of good things from it every year.


    It was even said that the possibility to jump over the Dragon Gate was created from this mystic realm.


    The Dragon Palace had recently obtained the so-called Human Stone Tablets from that mystic realm. It seemed to record some kind of secret cultivation method.


    This time, Zhou Feng understood that this so-called mystic realm was the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage.


    Now, it was directly occupied by the Dragon Palace.


    However, it seemed that the Dragon Palace didn¡¯t have complete control over this mystic realm.


    ¡°If you are interested, we can go to the Dragon Palace to observe it.¡±


    ¡°Is this okay?¡± Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    ¡°Of course! The Human Stone Tablet is not a precious item. We can take the opportunity to observe it while the Dragon Sovereign is looking for a son-in-law.¡±


    Qing Wu took over everything.


    It wouldn¡¯t have been easy to enter the Dragon Palace if it were before.


    But now that the Dragon Sovereign was looking for a son-in-law, as long as the strength of the aquatic tribe was strong enough, they could enter the Dragon Palace.


    Qing Wu asked tentatively, ¡°Excuse me for asking, Brother, how is your strength? Entering the Dragon Palace might require a certain level of strength. In any case, I have no chance.¡±


    ¡°Me? I can kill you with one hand. How about this level of strength?¡±


    When Zhou Feng heard this, he glanced at Qing Wu and was not modest.


    There were not many rules in the Southern Sea, and all the aquatic tribes were of one mind¡ªthe stronger fist had the right to speak.


    Thus, when necessary, one had to display some strength and confidence.


    ¡°One hand?¡±


    Qing Wu didn¡¯t believe it because he could tell from Zhou Feng¡¯s aura that he hadn¡¯t stepped into the Purple Mansion realm.


    He wasn¡¯t even as strong as him. Qing Wu was still a Rank-5 Daemon General (5th Level of the Purple Mansion realm).


    Combined with his innate divine ability, he could be considered a small expert in the Dragon Palace.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say anything, only leaking out a trace of Blood Qi.


    That boiling hot and violent Blood Qi instantly suppressed Qing Wu.


    He wasn¡¯t joking. In fact, he was already somewhat conservative.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng had fought with a half-step Divine Ability cultivator before.


    To him, someone in the Purple Mansion realm was no longer a threat to him.


    Qing Wu felt the suffocating pressure slowly disappear when Zhou Feng retracted his aura.


    Too powerful!


    This feeling was as if he was facing a freak from the Dragon Palace.


    ¡®Awesome! I didn¡¯t expect to meet such a powerful warrior this time!¡¯


    A trace of wild joy flashed through Qing Wu¡¯s eyes.


    With such a fellow tribesman supporting him, he no longer had to lower his voice. He could ruthlessly slap those people in their faces.


    In fact, Qing Wu had also tried to enter the Dragon Palace before, but he was severely humiliated at the entrance.


    Qing Wu¡¯s strength was still a little weak compared to those powerful aquatic creatures.


    ¡°Brother! You have to help me vent my anger!¡±


    Qing Wu didn¡¯t hesitate at all. After learning that Zhou Feng was so strong, he asked Zhou Feng to help him take revenge.


    ¡°Oh right! May I know your name? My name is Qing Wu!¡±


    ¡°Oh, my name is Qing Shi. As for helping you to vent your anger, that is naturally not a problem.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brain was spinning rapidly.


    In an instant, he gave himself a name and then agreed to Qing Wu¡¯s request.


    The two of them had only met for a short while, yet it was as if they had really become brothers.


    It had to be said that it was very easy to gain the trust of others with the same bloodline.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go, Brother Shi! Let¡¯s go to the Dragon Palace now. The Dragon Palace is much more fun than the base!¡±


    Having such a backer, Qing Wu immediately wanted to go to the Dragon Palace.


    After all, compared to his own base, the Dragon Palace was much better.


    Not only was there delicious food and fun but there were also all kinds of beauties. If he was lucky enough, he could even meet the Fifth Princess.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Zhou Feng agreed immediately, so the two of them changed their destination.


    Along the way, like Zhou Feng and Qing Wu, many aquatic creatures were walking toward the Dragon Palace.


    Zhou Feng was amazed once again.


    There were all kinds of strange bodies and strange appearances. It was like a masquerade party.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, had assimilated another bloodline, yet he had no such outstanding characteristics.


    Just from his appearance, he looked like a human.


    This naturally attracted the attention of many aquatic creatures.


    Qing Wu had never attracted so much attention before. Even though the surrounding aquatic creatures were not looking at him, the one next to him was his fellow tribesman.


    As such, Qing Wu raised his head and walked behind Zhou Feng arrogantly like a playboy.


    ¡°Get out of the way! Get out of the way!¡±


    He even ordered his attendants to chase away the aquatic creatures in front of him, helping Zhou Feng walk to the Dragon Palace¡¯s entrance.


    That arrogant behavior attracted the glares of many aquatic creatures.


    Such a high-profile behavior made Zhou Feng a little uncomfortable. He really hadn¡¯t tried acting like that before.


    ¡°What are you looking at? Can you pieces of trash go to the Dragon Palace? Get out of my way!¡±


    Qing Wu¡¯s current expression was completely different from when he faced Zhou Feng.

 Chapter 281 - Domineering Entrance

    Chapter 281 Domineering Entrance


    ¡°Hey! Isn¡¯t that the little green snake from before?¡±


    ¡°Did you invite a helper today?¡±


    ¡°Is its transformation so perfect? No wonder this little green snake is so arrogant.¡±


    Some of the surrounding aquatic creatures did not immediately speak up about Qing Wu¡¯s arrogant attitude.


    Some of them were very unhappy and had an impression of this little green snake.


    Qing Wu wanted to enter the Dragon Palace yesterday, but he was severely humiliated.


    He had even said they would take revenge before leaving


    They didn¡¯t expect him to come so soon, nor that he would hire a helper.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance alone made many aquatic creatures feel that Qing Wu had the right to be arrogant.


    After all, it was rare to see such a perfect transformation. At least, it showed that its soul was strong enough.


    That was because only a sufficiently powerful soul could lead to a perfect transformation.


    ¡°Hmph! If you have the guts, then come and spar with me. If you don¡¯t have the courage, then scram to the side!¡±


    Since Zhou Feng was backing him, Qing Wu immediately used all his eloquence.


    When Zhou Feng saw this, his interest was piqued. He coordinated with Qing Wu¡¯s words and slowly released his aura.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was now extremely terrifying to ordinary cultivators due to his passive Invincible Aura.


    Invincible Aura: A certain kind of aura starts to form on your body. Every time you defeat an


    enemy, this aura will accumulate by one layer.


    There is no limit to the layers you can accumulate.


    In the beginning, this Passive Aura wasn¡¯t that powerful.


    However, after defeating a few enemies and stacking more layers stacked together, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura turned into a kind of weapon.


    It even affected the formation of his avatar.


    That aura, which was like a rolling torrent suppressing all directions, made all the surrounding aquatic creatures shut their mouths at the first moment.


    Even Qing Wu was frightened and almost shrank his entire body.


    But when he thought about it, he realized that Zhou Feng was backing him up.


    For a moment, Qing Wu raised his chin, and the tail on his back directly rose up.


    Then, a path appeared automatically.


    ¡°I said before that I¡¯d enter! How is it? I¡¯m not joking, right?¡±


    Qing Wu walked to the Dragon Palace¡¯s entrance. He stared at one of the guards, his face revealing a malicious expression.


    It was this person who had ruthlessly humiliated Qing Wu.


    Zhou Feng glanced at him.


    ¡°Lobster guard?¡±


    This guard had the head of a lobster and wore a set of battle armor.


    He was a Rank-8 Daemon General, and a murderous aura emanated from his body. In terms of strength, he was indeed much stronger than the surrounding aquatic creatures.


    ¡°Brother Shi! It¡¯s this dog-eyed thing that looks down on others!¡±


    Qing Wu changed his words very naturally. He had the expression of a younger brother who was being bullied and looked at the tall and strong older brother.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi suddenly skyrocketed as he punched out. He didn¡¯t even give this guard a chance to explain.


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    The lobster guard¡¯s eyes bulged out, and the surrounding seawater began to gather frantically.


    But because Zhou Feng¡¯s attack was too sudden, this punch was too strong, and the pressure of his aura was suffocating, the lobster guard could not defend.


    All struggles were destroyed by this punch. The hard armor was directly shattered, while the harpoon in his hand was broken.


    The lobster guard was heavily injured in just a second, almost hammered to death.


    ¡°Haha! Good!¡±


    Seeing this, Qing Wu immediately shouted, ¡°Good!¡±.


    He was not afraid at all. Instead, he felt that Zhou Feng was doing the right thing.


    The guard had actually dared to look down on him. Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t directly killed this b*stard, so Qing Wu felt that he was too¡­ kind-hearted.


    ¡°As expected, he is here to cause trouble!¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect the Azure Sea Snake Tribe to have such a cultivation genius.¡±


    ¡°How come I¡¯ve never heard of him before?¡±


    The surrounding aquatic creatures weren¡¯t too surprised when they saw this scene.


    They all discussed how the Azure Sea Snake Tribe had nurtured such a genius.


    Zhou Feng had witnessed all of this.


    ¡®As expected! There¡¯s a huge difference in opinions and ideologies between the aquatic creatures and the human race.¡¯


    If this was done in Heavenly Star City, someone suddenly attacking without saying a word¡ªthe onlookers would definitely be in disbelief.


    This was too crazy! This was simply madness.


    However, this kind of action seemed very normal to the aquatic creatures.


    After all, Zhou Feng was here to help Qing Qu get back at the guard.


    ¡°Since Brother Shi didn¡¯t kill you, then I won¡¯t kill you either. However, you won¡¯t be able to escape from this!¡±


    | WO


    Qing Wu directly spat out a black venomous fog, which instantly attached itself to the body of the lobster guard.


    This was a special venom of the Azure Sea Snakes. Once one came in contact with the venom, they would experience excruciating pain.


    If there was no antidote, the affected party would die from the pain.


    At that moment, Qing Wu Man¡¯s smugness was completely exposed.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to waste too much time.


    ¡°Hmph! You dog!¡±


    Qing Wu passed by the lobster guard¡¯s body.


    Then, he walked into the Dragon Palace with a face full of joy.


    The other guards did not stop Zhou Feng and Qing Wu. They just waited until they left, then carried away the lobster guard.


    ¡°Tsk, tsk, tsk, I wonder where that little green snake unearthed that expert!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! But at least we can enter the Dragon Palace!¡±


    ¡°I wonder if we¡¯ll have the chance to see the Fifth Princess!¡±


    ¡°She¡¯s too strong! And why is that aura completely incompatible with the nature of the Azure Sea Snake Tribe?¡±


    ¡°How exactly does he cultivate?¡±


    The surrounding aquatic creatures ignored the lobster guard¡¯s plight, and almost all of them were discussing how Qing Wu had found such a thick thigh and how Zhou Feng cultivated.


    That kind of imposing manner and strength were not something that the Azure Sea Snake Tribe could nurture.


    It was really too strange!


    At the Dragon Palace¡­


    As soon as they entered, they saw countless corals and all sorts of gemstones decorating the surroundings.


    The aura of a luxurious nouveau riche came from the front.


    Then, several maids came forward to welcome them.


    ¡®This doesn¡¯t seem to be any different from Heavenly Star City,¡¯ Zhou Feng thought.


    It was practically no different from some places in Heavenly Star City.


    There were also these maids. The clothes they wore were also very similar to those of the humans.


    The only difference was that these aids more or less had some racial characteristics.


    They looked a little charming, but their basic looks were mainly human.


    For example, this maid in front of him looked fair and tender, like a beauty.


    But her ears were a little big, like the ears of some kind of creature.


    Qing Wu revealed a pig-like expression when he saw these maids, especially their faintly discernible clothes.


    Qing Wu¡¯s face was a little hot.


    ¡®As expected! In addition to the delicious food and fun, the Dragon Palace has all kinds of beauties.


    ¡°These maids are much more beautiful than the maids in the tribe.¡¯


    Zhou Feng had seen and experienced too much, so he didn¡¯t feel anything about it.

 Chapter 282 - Fifth Princess, the Dragon Lady

    Chapter 282 Fifth Princess, the Dragon Lady


    ¡°Where is the Human Stone Tablet?¡±


    After Zhou Feng entered the Dragon Palace, he did not beat around the bush and asked about the location of the stone tablet.


    ¡°In the Exhibition Hall!¡±


    The maid who had just welcomed him was stunned for a second and then immediately gave an answer.


    When the Dragon Palace was opened this time, there was also a pile of treasures for display.


    The Human Stone Tablet that had been dug out of the mystic realm was placed in the Exhibition Hall.


    ¡°Exhibition Hall?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt a little strange.


    ¡®Wasn¡¯t the Dragon Sovereign looking for a son-in-law? Why did he create an Exhibition Hall?¡¯


    This style didn¡¯t seem like the aquatic creatures¡¯ style. Instead, it seemed like the style of the human race.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think too much about it. Even if there was something fishy about it, it shouldn¡¯t be directed at him.


    At present, he was only a young genius of the Azure Sea Snake Tribe.


    ¡°Hey! Brother Shi! Wait for me!¡±


    Qing Wu was about to go and fraternize with the maids when he saw Zhou Feng¡¯s back. He immediately stopped teasing the maids in the Dragon Palace.


    After all, he could enter the Dragon Palace because of Zhou Feng.


    In the Dragon Palace, there were many geniuses. Under such circumstances, he had to cling to his legs.


    ¡°Oh right! Brother Shi, why do you care so much about the Human Stone Tablet!?


    ¡°I heard that it¡¯s from ancient times. It doesn¡¯t seem to be of much use to our tribe.¡±


    Qing Wu, who had caught up with Zhou Feng, immediately voiced out his doubts.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s behavior was a little abnormal. He was clearly from the Azure Sea Snake Tribe. Why would he be interested in the Human Stone Tablet?


    ¡°Oh, that Human Stone Tablet might be related to a cultivation technique I¡¯m cultivating, so I want to take a look.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s tone was calm. When he assumed this new identity, he did not hide anything. This was because lying was something that others could easily expose.


    The truly powerful people would usually tell the truth, but others would interpret it completely differently from their original intention.


    ¡°I see¡­¡±


    Qing Wu did not continue to ask upon hearing that this was related to Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation technique.


    If he continued to ask, it would be taboo. It was very dangerous to inquire about one¡¯s cultivation techniques casually.


    Soon, the two passed through the magnificent walkway.


    During this period, they met many geniuses.


    Compared to the aquatic creatures outside, the ones that could enter the Dragon Palace had almost perfect transformations, and their appearance was almost no different from that of the humans.


    Zhou Feng thought that he had returned to Heavenly Star City.


    These aquatic creatures were talking to each other or sparring.


    It looked like a large-scale gathering.


    But none of this had anything to do with him.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hurried appearance naturally attracted the attention of quite a few people.


    ¡°When did these two little snakes sneak in? Is this a place where you can stay?¡±


    As expected, without waiting for Zhou Feng to do anything, trouble immediately came knocking on his door.


    A burly man with two tentacles on both sides of his face stood before Zhou Feng and Qing Wu.


    Rank-9 Daemon General!


    This person¡¯s cultivation was at the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm, and his soul power was close to perfection.


    If nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to attempt to break through to the Daemon King rank soon.


    And this kind of cultivation was truly quite common in the Dragon Palace.


    Because of this, Zhou Feng and Qing Wu were particularly eye-catching amongst this group of geniuses.


    One of them seemed to be a Rank-5 Daemon General. The other¡¯s aura was extremely weak, and his strength didn¡¯t seem to be that great.


    These two couldn¡¯t have used some sort of method to sneak in, right?


    ¡®That little snake looks so handsome! I mustn¡¯t allow the Fifth Princess to see him!¡¯


    Ju Lin stared intently at Zhou Feng.


    In his eyes, although Zhou Feng¡¯s strength wasn¡¯t that great, he was handsome enough.


    And his temperament. If one ignored his strength¡­ he was definitely a strong competitor for the Dragon Sovereign¡¯s son-in-law.


    Zhou Feng probably didn¡¯t expect that the trouble would come because he was too handsome.


    Therefore, he was regarded as a great threat. In addition, he wasn¡¯t strong enough on paper, so it should not take much effort to defeat him on the spot.


    ¡°What are you doing? Are you looking for trouble?¡±


    When Qing Wu saw Ju Lin, half of his courage immediately dissipated.


    Still, when he thought of Zhou Feng, who was behind him, Qing Wu immediately mustered up his courage.


    To be a follower, one must have the awareness of being a follower.


    Qing Wu knew that the person in front of them was looking for trouble with them.


    It was useless to lower his voice, so he directly retorted without holding back.


    ¡®Trouble¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not speak but only frowned slightly.


    This kind of feeling was already very familiar to him.


    This sort of trouble would come knocking on his door almost every time. In the end, it was because he wasn¡¯t strong enough.


    Zhou Feng was already considering whether or not he should learn some techniques to increase his cultivation level. If the cultivation level he was currently displaying was at the Rank-9 Daemon General level¡­


    Then there might not be so much trouble.


    Other people might try their best to hide their cultivation level and keep that act of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.


    However, Zhou Feng was already tired of it. He would have to go through so much trouble all the time.


    It would be great if there was a way to disguise one¡¯s cultivation level. He could pretend to be a 9th Level Purple Mansion cultivator/Rank-9 Daemon General or even a Divine Ability expert/Daemon King.


    If other people wanted to find trouble, they would have to think twice.


    ¡°Your soul isn¡¯t solid enough, your bloodline isn¡¯t pure enough, and your physique is a disgrace. How did a little snake like you manage to sneak in?¡±


    Ju Lin simply glanced at Qing Wu.


    He immediately saw through Qing Wu¡¯s background.


    A bloodline that wasn¡¯t pure enough meant that the upper limit of one¡¯s strength was just So-so. A soul that wasn¡¯t solid enough meant that the cultivation technique wasn¡¯t that good.


    A cultivation technique that wasn¡¯t good also meant that the strength of the tribe wasn¡¯t good enough.


    At least 1,000 aquatic creatures like Qing Wu could not defeat the guards at the entrance.


    ¡®So this little snake could come in because of another little snake?


    ¡®But this little snake¡­¡¯


    Ju Lin looked at Zhou Feng again. After sizing him up, a hazy feeling immediately emerged.


    ¡®Can¡¯t see through him?¡±


    Zhou Feng gave Ju Lin the feeling that he was like a ball of fog. Sometimes he could see clearly, and sometimes he couldn¡¯t.


    ¡°Hmph! Do you want to fight? If you know what¡¯s good for you, quickly get out of the way!¡± Qing Wu saw that Zhou Feng did not say anything to stop him. He immediately felt his heart calm down.


    He spoke even more arrogantly, and his face became even more brazen.


    He looked like a fox that was using the might of a tiger to intimidate others.


    Although his words were ruthless, his body subconsciously shrank back.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, did not speak as usual. He only narrowed his eyes slightly, and traces of a dangerous aura slowly rose.


    ¡°Fifth Princess! The Fifth Princess has appeared!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s really the Fifth Princess!¡±


    ¡°To be able to fly in the Dragon Palace, it must be the Fifth Princess!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to make his move, a commotion broke out.


    The Fifth Princess of the Dragon Palace, known as the Dragon Lady, had appeared.


    This was the Fifth Princess with the atavistic bloodline. Marrying her was the main reason these aquatic creatures had come to the Dragon Palace.


    Zhou Feng followed everyone¡¯s line of sight and looked over.


    What entered his eyes was a pair of exquisite and small dragon horns.


    This pair of small dragon horns were like seven-colored corals, slowly emitting a faint light and giving birth to a noble aura spontaneously.

 Chapter 283 - Still the Focus of Attention

    Chapter 283 Still the Focus of Attention


    Other than the pink and tender dragon horns, what surprised Zhou Feng the most was that the Fifth Princess looked no different from ordinary humans.


    She had a round, oval face, her skin was tender and fair, and a sense of youth filled her face.


    Although the Fifth Princess looked a little silly and naughty, her temperament was a little cold and arrogant. It was as if a child was trying hard to pretend to be an adult. ¡°The Fifth Princess!¡±


    Qing Wu¡¯s eyes went straight to the point.


    She had already turned into a true dragon!?


    That dragon horn! Just how pure was the Fifth Princess¡¯ true dragon bloodline?


    Looks and such were not within Qing Wu¡¯s considerations.


    Qing Wu was shocked because of the dragon horn on the Fifth Princess¡¯ head.


    This was not the horn of a Flood Dragon, but the horn of a true dragon. This could be seen from the forks on it.


    There was also the suppression of the bloodline. It was simply too enchanting.


    If the Fifth Princess could give birth to a descendant, then her own clan would be able to turn into true dragons.


    Similar to Qing Wu, a desire arose in the eyes of the other aquatic tribes.


    This was the pursuit of a higher bloodline. This was also the reason these aquatic tribes came here.


    When the Fifth Princess, Ao Shan, saw this kind of gaze, her eyes became even colder.


    She didn¡¯t care about these useless people.


    If it weren¡¯t for her father, she wouldn¡¯t have come here at all.


    Choosing a husband among this group of stinky fish and rotten prawns? What a joke!


    While all the aquatic creatures¡¯ gazes were fixed on her, Zhou Feng was extremely low-key and stood still.


    Now that he had learned his lesson, he definitely couldn¡¯t be too high-key in this situation.


    He wanted to avoid being noticed.


    Zhou Feng would have left alone long ago if this situation had happened before.


    So what if she was the so-called Fifth Princess? Why did he have to stand there and stare blankly?


    If he had the time, he might as well go and look at the Human Stone Tablets.


    But now, Zhou Feng had become more cautious.


    If he were too independent at this time, he would be making himself uncomfortable. It was best to stand still and wait for Ao Shan to leave before moving slowly.


    ¡®The Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage is indeed in the Dragon Palace¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the Human Emperor Ring on his finger.


    Now he had confirmed that the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage was here, there was no need to be too anxious.


    There were too many experts in the Dragon Palace. He would be courting death by making trouble here.


    It was better to use his current identity to see if he could sneak into the Dragon Palace¡¯s so-called mystic realm.


    If it didn¡¯t work, Zhou Feng had already planned to give up.


    His identity would always be a problem in the Southern Sea. Once he was exposed, it was very likely that his body and soul would be destroyed.


    Even if he had a chance to be reborn, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t dare to be too reckless.


    ¡°Maybe I should plan a few escape routes first¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that he was still a little too reckless.


    He would have been discovered long ago if he hadn¡¯t been passively infiltrating the Southern Sea.


    He had not even thought of an escape route before.


    This was too reckless. He had to perfect the escape route now.


    Zhou Feng lowered his head, his eyes lifeless. He was already thinking about how to run away after being exposed.


    Meanwhile, Ao Shan impatiently looked at all the aquatic creatures present.


    Although Ao Shan was extremely unwilling, this was the old Dragon Sovereign¡¯s order.


    This was because Ao Shan had a rare atavistic bloodline. Her Flood Dragon bloodline had reached the true dragon level.


    In the future, as long as she grew up, she would at least reach the Divine Ability realm.


    Moreover, this was a natural growth. If she cultivated diligently, breaking through the bottleneck of the Divine Ability realm would be a piece of cake.


    With such a bloodline, she had to leave behind a descendant.


    As long as she succeeded in leaving behind a descendant, then the Dragon Palace¡¯s position would be unshakable.


    Of course, the old Dragon Sovereign had to take into account Ao Shan¡¯s emotions, so she had the right to choose her husband. Still, other than Ao Shan, the future son-in-law also needed to pass the old Dragon Sovereign¡¯s test.


    This was the first test. As long as Ao Shan


    pleasing to the eye, she would write them down.


    C


    The rest would be eliminated.


    There were a few maids beside Ao Shan waiting to record names at any time.


    Surprisingly, they had already recorded many names.


    That¡¯s right! Ao Shan could pick more than one husband. If she was willing, she could even choose eight or ten.


    The old Dragon Sovereign was eager for her to pick as many husbands as possible and pass down more of the true dragon bloodline.


    Because of this, all the aquatic creatures in the Dragon Palace had the opportunity.


    They didn¡¯t just rely on their aptitude, strength, and background to make decisions.


    Such a situation was quite common among humans.


    It was common for some powerful female cultivators to have more than ten partners. As long as one was strong enough and could afford to raise them, no one would gossip.


    ¡°That¡­ And that¡­¡±


    Ao Shan randomly picked a few aquatic creatures that were pleasing to the eye.


    The maid next to her immediately recorded the people that Ao Shan pointed at.


    When Qing Wu saw this, he immediately took a deep breath and puffed out his chest, displaying his best mental appearance. Even the rude Ju Lin had retracted his murderous aura.


    He was like a male peacock that was trying his best to open his tail, praying to attract a female.


    Among the group of dogs, Zhou Feng just stood there.


    He was rather eye-catching and immediately attracted Ao Shan¡¯s attention.


    Zhou Feng probably did not expect that he would attract Ao Shan¡¯s attention because he appeared too normal compared to the other aquatic creatures. ¡°Eh?¡±


    When Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng, a hint of surprise appeared on her face.


    This was the first person who gave her a very comfortable feeling.


    He didn¡¯t have that strong desire to possess her, nor did he have the gaze of a male dog in heat.


    There was also that indifferent temperament, which really suited her taste.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng was still very handsome.


    Ever since Zhou Feng started cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, his body¡¯s flaws would be repaired bit by bit.


    Coupled with the 2 points of Charm of his passive Amorous Prodigal Heart, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance was outstanding. No matter where he went, he would attract a lot of attention.


    Such a change made him very distressed. What he hoped the most was to be ordinary, neither outstanding nor mediocre. This would help him hide.


    Finding a disguise technique was the most urgent wish in his heart.


    ¡°And that!¡±


    Ao Shan stretched her hand and pointed at Zhou Feng.


    The princess¡¯ passionate tone immediately caused the surrounding aquatic creatures to look at Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng also realized that something was wrong and immediately returned to his senses.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? What¡¯s happening?¡±


    When he came back to his senses, he immediately noticed that everyone around him was looking at him.


    He was clearly hiding in a corner, not doing anything at all.


    Why was it still like this in the end?


    Zhou Feng had encountered this situation many times.


    Each time, he became the target of public criticism and the focus of attention.


    Zhou Feng concluded that he was too carefree. Sometimes, it was still important to pretend to be a passerby. ¡®But why? And why this time!?¡¯


    ¡°Haha! Brother Shi! Did you see that? The Fifth Princess has taken a fancy to you!¡±


    Zhou Feng was not in a good mood, to begin with, yet Qing Wu had to shout like a big fool.


    Zhou Feng instantly felt that the gazes around him were oozing out even more jealousy!

 Chapter 284 - Was This Still a Azure Sea Snake?

    Chapter 284 Was This Still a Azure Sea Snake?


    Ao Shan left very quickly.


    She would stroll around the Dragon Palace every day at this time to see if there was anyone she liked.


    As long as an aquatic creature was recorded in the register, they could live openly in the Dragon Palace.


    The aquatic creatures that were not recorded had to leave the Dragon Palace at night.


    ¡®How troublesome¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what to say.


    Fortunately, he didn¡¯t panic. He still had one more chance to simulate another bloodline. In other words, he still had one more chance to change his appearance.


    If there was real trouble, Zhou Feng could simulate another aquatic creature so that he could easily escape.


    ¡°Haha! My brother has a chance to become the Fifth Princess¡¯ husband! How about it, big fool?¡±


    Qing Wu¡¯s smug expression was reflected on his face. He did not forget to provoke Ju Lin when he was feeling smug.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Ju Lin was already in a bad mood. Now that Qing Wu provoked him, he was even more furious.


    The tentacles on both sides of his cheeks began to float while his eyes turned scarlet.


    Ju Lin was originally a Megakiller Whale, a simple-minded tribe, but their bodies were gargantuan.


    The Megakiller Whales could be considered a powerful tribe in the Southern Sea.


    Although there were very few members, each Megakiller Whale was very powerful. In addition, due to their sparse population, they were extremely protective of their own.


    Once something happened to the younger generation, the older generation would definitely take action no matter who the opponent was.


    Only the Dragon Palace could suppress the Megakiller Whale Tribe in the entire Southern Sea.


    Because of this, Ju Lin dared to block people in the Dragon Palace.


    ¡°Am I courting death? If you have the guts, then make your move! I¡¯m not afraid of you!¡±


    Qing Wu wasn¡¯t timid.


    Zhou Feng had never expressed his stance, indicating he tacitly agreed to his own actions.


    Zhou Feng would do something else if the situation wasn¡¯t right.


    At that time, Qing Wu would definitely restrain himself.


    Although Qing Wu was arrogant and pinheaded, he actually thought he was very smart.


    His actions were to help Zhou Feng create momentum, gather more fame, and spar with more competitors.


    The Azure Sea Snake Tribe¡¯s strength was really a little weak.


    Since they were not powerful enough, they would have to find another way to gain more fame.


    By then, they might be able to attract the Dragon Sovereign¡¯s attention.


    In addition to the fact that Zhou Feng was so handsome, Ao Shan was clearly attracted to him.


    It was impossible to become Ao Shan¡¯s husband, but becoming Ao Shan¡¯s man was still possible.


    If Zhou Feng could have descendants with Ao Shan, the Azure Sea Snake Tribe might become the Azure Sea Flood Dragon Tribe in the future.


    At this time, Qing Wu¡¯s heart was full of calculations.


    If Zhou Feng knew what Qing Wu was thinking, he would be rendered speechless.


    What the hell was this?


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t express his position because he was thinking about other things and wanted to maintain his cover.


    Moreover, he wanted to fight with the aquatic creatures and see how they were compared to human cultivators.


    How strong were these aquatic warriors?


    Taking 10,000 steps back, Zhou Feng could change his appearance and get rid of all the trouble when the situation wasn¡¯t right.


    As for the trouble caused by Qing Wu, he would bear it himself.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Ju Lin couldn¡¯t take it anymore. The Blood Qi in his body was like a torrent.


    Ju Lin was a Megakiller Whale, so he mainly cultivated the physical body.


    Compared to humans, the Megakiller Whale was a seed that was born to cultivate the physical body.


    This was because the Blood Qi in the body of the newborn Megakiller Whale was hundreds of times more potent than that of humans.


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes lit up. This should be the first time he met someone who cultivated the physical body.


    He moved forward to block slightly, and the Blood Qi in his body also burst out.


    The violent streams of power collided, and the surrounding water shook.


    It was as if the water was boiling.,


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Ju Lin¡¯s face became a bit serious. He felt a power that was not weaker than his from Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    This small snake is actually so powerful?¡¯


    According to Ju Lin¡¯s knowledge, the most powerful quality of the Azure Sea Snake Tribe should be its venom.


    Even the innate abilities of the Azure Sea Snake Tribe were related to venom.


    There had never been a single Azure Sea Snake that could contend with a Megakiller Whale in terms of strength.


    Ju Lin calmed down, and his right hand turned blood-red as if it was a red-hot boulder.


    Zhou Feng did not show any signs of weakness, and golden Blood Qi burst out.


    His right fist was like a piece of divine iron, colliding with Ju Lin¡¯s fist.


    After all, they were in the Dragon Palace now. Both sides were restraining each other¡¯s strength.


    So strong!


    Zhou Feng frowned, and his body retreated slightly.


    The strength of the aquatic creature in front of him was simply terrifying.


    In the confrontation just now, he had inevitably fallen into a disadvantage. Still, this was on the premise that a variety of his passive skills had yet to be triggered or stacked.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng could not use all his strength in this form, so it was very normal for him to fall into a disadvantage. ¡°Good! Very good! We¡¯ll meet again when we jump through the Dragon Gate!¡± Ju Lin felt a strange force ignore his own defense and directly hit his body. This made Ju Lin know that it was basically impossible to take down Zhou Feng in a short time.


    Therefore, it was a waste of time to stay here. The little snake in front of him indeed had the right to be arrogant.


    But it would only be arrogant for a few days.


    He would definitely not let off the small snake when the Dragon Gate Festival was held.


    In order to prevent himself from getting even angrier, Ju Lin did not even look at Qing Wu. Instead, he turned around and left.


    ¡°Just now¡­ My eyes didn¡¯t play tricks on me, right!? That person is actually on par with Ju Lin!?¡±


    ¡°That seems to be a pure physical confrontation! Since when did the Azure Sea Snake have such a powerful physical body?¡±


    ¡°Is he still an Azure Sea Snake? Given his strength, even I would believe that he¡¯s a Flood Dragon!¡±


    The aquatic creatures that had just witnessed the entire confrontation were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.


    That scene was simply inconceivable.


    The Azure Sea Snake Tribe¡¯s strength was simply unable to contend against the Megakiller Whale Tribe.


    The Azure Sea Snake Tribe would definitely be crushed if it was purely a physical confrontation.


    Even if their cultivation level was higher, it would still be the same, not to mention that Ju Lin¡¯s cultivation level was equivalent to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    But Zhou Feng had only just stepped into the Purple Mansion realm.


    This feeling was like a monkey comparing strength with a gorilla. Yet, in the end, they were neck and neck.


    This was simply ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous!


    ¡°Haha! See? This is the strength of my elder brother! Move aside! Get out of the way!¡±


    Qing Wu appeared to be proud as he urged the aquatic creatures in front of him to move aside.


    The surrounding aquatic creatures also subconsciously moved aside.


    After all, the scene just now was really exaggerated. Also, the true geniuses were not here.


    The strongest person here should have been Ju Lin.


    The true geniuses had all gathered in another place.


    Still, the ones who could enter the Dragon Palace were not weak.


    Now, they all made way, completely shocked.


    It was simply logic-defying for an Azure Sea Snake to have such power.

 Chapter 285 - Changing Targets

    Chapter 285 Changing Targets


    Zhou Feng and Qing Wu left the place under the terrified gazes of the group of aquatic creatures.


    Although there were many twists and turns in the process, Zhou Feng still managed to see the so-called Human Stone Tablet in the end.


    This was an incomplete stone tablet, and a wild and rotten aura stemmed from it.


    The words on it were also very strange, and they didn¡¯t seem like the words of the current era.


    ¡®Appraising Eye!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was not worried about this at all.


    The Appraising Eye could help him solve this problem.


    (Human Emperor Stone Tablet: The stone tablet carved by a carving master. It contains a special power that makes this stone tablet go through countless vicissitudes.)


    The Appraising Eye immediately identified that this was the real thing.


    The first Human Emperor had really left this behind.


    This period was very long. If not for the special power, this stone tablet would have been shattered by the power of time.


    Zhou Feng stared at the inscriptions on the stone tablet.


    He wanted to use the Appraising Eye to identify the inscriptions.


    [Incomplete mysterious inscription: Bathe in demon blood¡­ Temper the body¡­]


    The stone tablet was incomplete, so the appraisal took a long time.


    Only then did he understand what was recorded on it.


    It recorded how the successors of the Human Emperor tempered their bodies in ancient times.


    The stone tablet repeatedly stated that tempering the body was related to demonic beasts.


    In ancient times, there were all kinds of demonic beasts and Demons.


    Although these demonic beasts and Demons were extremely powerful, they were also great supplements.


    If they could successfully hunt them down, they would be great medicines for the practitioners of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Before the creation of professions such as Pill Masters, Demons were the pills, while the demonic beasts were supplements.


    However, the methods recorded in the stone tablet seemed a little rough and crude in this era.


    In this era, if one could obtain the blood of Demon Generals, the effects of the refined pills would be even stronger.


    ¡®What a pity¡­¡¯


    Although this stone tablet was genuine, it was of no use to him¡ªthe records were all crude techniques that had no value at all.


    As for the most important second half of the Human Emperor Scripture, he did not find anything


    Sure enough, it was impossible to pick up the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    He guessed that the second half should still be at the core of the mystic realm.


    After all, it was related to the heritage, so it would definitely be placed at the core.


    Moreover, the Human Emperor Ring on his finger had been urging him to enter the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage.


    ¡®If the so-called land of heritage is the mystic realm of the Dragon Palace, then how do I enter?¡¯


    This was a huge problem.


    Under such circumstances, it was almost impossible to enter the Dragon Palace¡¯s mystic realm.


    Did he have to participate in the so-called Dragon Gate Festival?


    After all, he was only relying on his passive Bloodline Simulation to pose as an Azure Sea Snake.


    What if he was exposed in the Dragon Gate Festival?


    ¡®How troublesome!¡¯


    There were many things that could not be done in enemy territory. The restrictions were too great.


    ¡°Brother Shi, haven¡¯t you seen enough? What¡¯s so good about this Human Stone Tablet?¡±


    Qing Wu could not help but ask when he saw that Zhou Feng had no intention of leaving.


    After all, this Human Stone Tablet was worthless in Qing Wu¡¯s eyes.


    If they had the energy to study this thing, they might as well go out and make some friends. Or they could go and see the other rare treasures of the Dragon Palace.


    The Dragon Palace was the only force in the Southern Sea that had a master craftsman.


    They could enjoy their craftsmanship or go and see the spirit fish grazing in the Dragon Palace.


    There were so many things to do, so why should they waste time here?


    ¡°I¡¯m done. Let¡¯s go.¡±


    The stone tablet was basically useless, so Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to waste time there.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    A hint of excitement flashed in Qing Wu¡¯s eyes upon seeing that Zhou Feng was finally going to leave.


    He had to follow Zhou Feng in the Dragon Palace. If he walked alone in the Dragon Palace, he would probably be captured by the other aquatic creatures before he could walk far.


    At this time, Zhou Feng basically gave up on getting the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    This did not mean that he had no chance to get it. It was because the risks were too great, and one mistake could cost him his life.


    Rather than that, he might as well look elsewhere.


    This was not the only place where the Human Emperor had left a land of heritage.


    Zhou Feng did not need to risk his life to fight for it. He had plenty of time as his innate divine ability allowed him to live a long life.


    He was still very young. There were times when he did not need to take such risks. He could even wait for a few years and come here after obtaining a few more passive skills.


    ¡®Then my next target will be to find Malevolent Earth Qi!¡¯


    Zhou Feng quickly adjusted his target.


    The Malevolent Earth Qi was the key to cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, and his Malevolent Earth Qi Core had already been used up.


    Now, his cultivation could only improve at the speed of a crawling turtle.


    Therefore, finding a new source of Malevolent Earth Qi and using it to temper his body became his current goal.


    Zhou Feng had already inquired about it before. There were several sources of Malevolent Earth Qi in the depths of the sea.


    They were emitting Malevolent Earth Qi all the time.


    Compared to the land, these sources of Malevolent Earth Qi sources were more terrifying, and almost no aquatic tribes were willing to develop them.


    These aquatic tribes did not have the means to harness the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    Or it could be said that the means to use the Malevolent Earth Qi were not as brilliant as those of humans.


    In addition, the seabed was rich in resources, and there was sufficient Spiritual Qi. There was no need to waste energy to collect the Malevolent Earth Qi.


    ¡®Speaking of which, this sea is quite suitable for cultivation¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the pressure and Spiritual Qi around him.


    Compared to the land, the depths of the sea were quite suitable for his cultivation.


    Firstly, the pressure of the sea could temper his body at all times. As long as he lived here, his body would become even more powerful.


    Secondly, the Spiritual Qi at the bottom of the sea was much denser than on land.


    Setting aside other purposes, he felt it would be beneficial to cultivate in the depths of the sea for a period.


    Zhou Feng was already planning to stay here for a long period.


    ¡°Investigate! Investigate the origins of that small snake!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s such a genius in the Azure Sea Snake Tribe? Why haven¡¯t I heard of him before?¡±


    ¡°That golden Blood Qi, why does it feel familiar!¡±


    Many aquatic creatures were currently investigating Zhou Feng¡¯s origins.


    After all, he had just made a name for himself.


    The fact that the Azure Sea Snake Tribe could produce such a monster was truly terrifying.


    Many major forces were investigating Zhou Feng¡¯s background.


    If nothing unexpected happened, the Dragon Sovereign¡¯s selection of a son-in-law this time would have an additional competitor.


    For these major forces, the most important thing was what methods the Azure Sea Snake Tribe had used.


    A small snake facing the Megakiller Whale Tribe head-on? This already exceeded the Azure Sea Snake Tribe¡¯s normal strength. Did this small snake have a bloodline mutation?


    If that were the case, then they had to eliminate Zhou Feng.


    Mutated bloodlines were rare in the Southern Sea. If they could leave behind descendants, perhaps a new tribe would appear.

 Chapter 286 - Cultivation Before Escaping

    Chapter 286 Cultivation Before Escaping


    A mutated bloodline was a very rare occurrence.


    But without exception, all mutated bloodlines would become very strange and possess some special abilities.


    Once, there was the Saltwater Clam Tribe, whose bloodline had undergone a mutation. It was able to continuously absorb the power of the moonlight and produce the moon pearl.


    This kind of moon pearl had the effect of strengthening the soul.


    It was precisely because of this moon pearl that the Saltwater Clam Tribe had once dominated an area. Before this, the Saltwater Clam Tribe had only been small and marginal.


    They hadn¡¯t even had a Daemon King, yet their small population enabled their bloodline to undergo a mutation.


    Thus, they had risen up in a very short period.


    Even before the other big forces had had the time to kill them, they had already developed.


    It was precisely because of this that all the aquatic tribes were very sensitive to mutated bloodlines.


    They didn¡¯t care about anything else. They would capture an aquatic creature and breed it as long as it had a mutated bloodline.


    They would first breed their descendants and see if they could steadily breed the descendants of mutated bloodlines.


    After that, they would slowly study the uniqueness of mutated bloodlines.


    The fervent pursuit of bloodlines was engraved in the bones of all the aquatic tribes.


    This probably had something to do with the living environment of these aquatic creatures. After all, in the sea, bloodlines represented strength and wealth. As long as the bloodlines were strong enough, they could give birth to a strong enough race. All the aquatic creatures had the chance to rise up relying on the continuous improvement of their own bloodlines.


    Even the weakest fish had the chance to make a comeback


    That was because the aquatic creatures didn¡¯t need to worry about mixing their bloodlines.


    The bloodlines had the power to devour each other. The stronger bloodline power would devour the weaker bloodline power.


    Thus, it would transform into a stronger bloodline.


    Just like the current old Dragon Sovereign, his cultivation was close to the realm after the Divine Ability realm.


    The bloodline in his body was also changed to the pure Flood Dragon bloodline.


    And before this, the Old Dragon Sovereign was just an ordinary snake.


    He had swallowed enough bloodlines to continuously provide nourishment for the trace of true dragon bloodline in his body, finally transforming into a Flood Dragon.


    In other words, the current Zhou Feng had become a hot commodity, a great tonic that could improve an entire tribe¡¯s bloodline.


    And Zhou Feng was also completely unaware of this.


    At present, he was cultivating alone in the Dragon Palace.


    The Dragon Palace was vast. In addition to all kinds of recreational facilities, there was a special place to temper one¡¯s body, the Sea Prison. There were nine layers, and the pressure would increase in each layer.


    It was the perfect place to train the physical body.


    After learning about this place, Zhou Feng spent almost all his time here.


    Given his current Azure Sea Snake identity, he did not have any qualms about cultivating here.


    ¡°So strong! I can¡¯t even stay in the fifth layer of the Sea Prison!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt pressure everywhere. His body was instantly damaged, his steel-like muscles collapsed, and slightly golden blood flowed out of his mouth and nose.


    From afar, Zhou Feng looked extremely miserable.


    However, he was used to it and didn¡¯t take this kind of injury seriously. His passive Tenacious Heart would heal him in a matter of seconds, after all.


    Not to mention that the Dragon Palace had made preparations in advance. Those who tempered their bodies inside could go outside to recover if they felt uncomfortable.


    Lots of small fish were outside to help you recover from your injuries and, at the same time, to soothe your body.


    That¡¯s right! Nursing staff was stationed in this Sea Prison, providing round-the-clock service.


    This was really too advanced.


    In addition to the specialized nursing staff, there were also all kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures.


    You could choose from them as you pleased, and the Dragon Palace provided all of this.


    There was no need to spend anything extra.


    Speaking of which, Zhou Feng could come here because of the Fifth Princess.


    Since he was the Fifth Princess¡¯ candidate husband, he was qualified to enter the Sea Prison to cultivate.


    Could this be considered as living off a woman?


    ¡®The one cultivating here is Qing Shi of the Azure Sea Snake Tribe. What does it have to do with me, Zhou Feng?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have too much psychological burden while cultivating here.


    It was too awesome!


    After his body was crushed, he would recover under the effect of his passive Tenacious Heart.


    During the recovery process, he continued to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Qi to temper his body.


    Although he did not have the Malevolent Earth Qi¡¯s assistance, his cultivation speed was more than ten times faster than his normal cultivation speed.


    ¡°I admire you! As expected, you did not rely on luck to enter this stage with the Azure Sea Snake bloodline! Instead, you relied on great perseverance!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was enjoying the pleasure of self-harming cultivation, someone came over to chat with him.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart suddenly jumped, and all the hair on his body involuntarily stood up. He didn¡¯t expect that someone would actually chat with him at this time.


    One had to know that in order to avoid being disturbed, Zhou Feng had directly come to the fifth layer of the Sea Prison.


    The pressure was horrifying. Except for those abnormal ascetic cultivators, no one would stay here for long.


    In any case, in the few days that Zhou Feng had been cultivating, almost no one had come here.


    Most of the cultivators were still in the first or second layer.


    Zhou Feng turned his head slightly and found a youth standing not far away.


    The youth¡¯s eyes were like two sharp swords, sharp enough to pierce through one¡¯s skin.


    There was a closed vertical eye between his eyebrows, and a mysterious and oppressive feeling rose unconsciously. ¡°You are?¡±


    Zhou Feng sensed the aura of the person in front of him and found that he was similar to the Bai Clan¡¯s Dao Protector he had encountered that day.


    ¡®Half-step Divine Ability realm?¡¯


    ¡°I am Ao Tong. I am Fifth Sister¡¯s elder brother,¡± Ao Tong introduced himself.


    No wonder! He was actually the son of the old Dragon Sovereign.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Zhou Feng gave a short reply.


    ¡°Nothing!¡±


    Ao Tong looked at the cold Zhou Feng, and a trace of astonishment appeared on his face.


    As expected, he had a personality! He was different from ordinary aquatic creatures. Zhou Feng was already prepared to escape, so he didn¡¯t really care what Ao Tong thought.


    In order to avoid any accidents, he did not plan to participate in the so-called Dragon Gate Festival.


    Instead, he would take advantage of the Dragon Gate Festival to escape and continue to train in other places in the sea.


    He was cultivating here as he waited for Qing Wu to bring intel.


    Of course, Zhou Feng did not plan to find information on the Malevolent Earth Qi sources in person.


    Instead, he had chosen to rely on the Azure Sea Snake Tribe. In any case, the Azure Sea Snake Tribe could be considered famous because of him.


    It was just the right time to help him find out where the Malevolent Earth Qi sources were.


    Ao Tong looked at Zhou Feng, who was cultivating diligently.


    In the end, he could not help but open his mouth.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you know that cultivating like this is a great burden on the body?¡±


    ¡°I know.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s answer was still as simple as before.


    ¡°How interesting. Perhaps your personality is just enough to control Fifth Sister. I hope you can leap over the Dragon Gate.¡±


    Ao Tong was stunned again and stopped speaking. He then dove deeper into the sea.

 Chapter 287 - Passive: Spiritual Qi Resistance

    Chapter 287 Passive: Spiritual Qi Resistance


    After immersing himself in the Sea Prison for some time, Zhou Feng took a look at the skill panel.


    The progress bar should be full after such a long time.


    Spiritual Qi was more abundant in the sea, so the progress bar should be filled faster.


    ¡°As expected!¡±


    The progress bar was indeed full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng was very familiar with this process.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Spiritual Qi Resistance: Your physical body begins to develop resistance to Spiritual Qi. When facing dao arts and techniques, innate abilities, and other attacks, the damage will be reduced by 15%. ¡°Resistance? Spiritual Qi Resistance!?¡±


    Zhou Feng carefully read this passive skill¡¯s description.


    What else could he say? Wasn¡¯t this invincible?


    Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to directly reducing spell damage?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body would become even more terrifying with such a passive addition.


    10,000-spell invulnerability might not be a dream!


    Under all kinds of passive additions, Zhou Feng felt that he would sooner or later become invulnerable to 10,000 spells and all kinds of evil techniques.


    ¡°Let me get this straight. There seem to be a lot of defensive passive skills!¡±


    Zhou Feng got to understand the defensive passive skill he currently had.


    Bone Coating: A layer of bone will be formed in the body, reducing the damage received for the first time. (The damage reduction will be affected by one¡¯s realm. At the same time, it will take seven days to regenerate.)


    Tough Skin: Your skin has become tougher. You will receive a fixed reduction of 2 points of damage when you receive damage.


    Reinforced Iron Bones: Your muscles and bones are like steel being poured over them. Your Defense will permanently increase by 10%.


    Adaptive Shell: Your physical body is adaptive. When you take the same type of attack, you can reduce the same type of damage by 5% each time you receive damage.


    The above-mentioned were all extremely strong defensive passive skills.


    Now, with the addition of the Spiritual Qi Resistance, he didn¡¯t even know how much damage he could withstand.


    And these were just the defense-type skills. There were also his recovery-type skills. There was even the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth. Some negative states couldn¡¯t do anything to him.


    Zhou Feng finally understood how terrifying this infinite stack of passive skills was.


    Ever since he started cultivating, he didn¡¯t enjoy the best resources or cultivate the best techniques. In fact, no one had taught him how to cultivate.


    This kind of treatment was like the difference between heaven and earth compared to the big clans¡¯ descendants.


    But just like that, Zhou Feng relied on his passive skills to trample on those so-called geniuses one by one.


    He would definitely become the most monstrous entity as long as he lived long enough!


    ¡®So¡­ Why should I take the risk? Can¡¯t I just live a good life?¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought as he left the Sea Prison.


    After such a long time, there should be news about the Malevolent Earth Qi from Qing Wu.


    He could not continue to stay here. If he continued to stay here, he would waste too much time.


    ¡°Brother Shi!¡±


    Just as he left the Sea Prison, Qing Wu looked at him.


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    Qing Wu in front of him looked a little miserable!


    His body and face were covered with all kinds of injuries. Although there were obvious signs of treatment, the scars could not be hidden.


    Zhou Feng was not surprised by this.


    In any case, Qing Wu¡¯s personality was that of a flamboyant person. He did not have enough strength, so it was normal for him to be taught a lesson.


    In fact, Zhou Feng did not know that after everyone started suspecting he had a mutated bloodline, many aquatic creatures had tested Qing Wu.


    They all wanted to test if the Azure Sea Snake Tribe was that abnormal.


    And the result was obvious. Qing Wu did not have the strength of Zhou Feng at all. He also did not have that terrifying physical body.


    During that period, he had been repeatedly touched¡­


    ¡°I¡­ I really¡­¡±


    Qing Wu did not know what to say for a moment.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had finally come out. No one would dare to bully him as long as he was there.


    ¡°Say it. Have you found the Malevolent Earth Qi sources?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say much, only concerned about whether the Malevolent Earth Qi sources had been found.


    ¡°Found them! There are many places with the Malevolent Earth Qi. This thing is too dangerous, so almost no one is willing to collect it!¡±


    Qing wu nodded.


    Finding a place with Malevolent Earth Qi was not too difficult for the Azure Sea Snake Tribe.


    The Malevolent Earth Qi itself was extremely difficult to use, let alone in the sea.


    Some areas were spewing out Malevolent Earth Qi at all times, so no aquatic tribe was willing to approach.


    With that, Qing Wu gave Zhou Feng a map made from a piece of shark skin. There were many locations recorded on it.


    ¡°Brother Shi, the Dragon Gate Festival is about to begin. Let¡¯s hurry to the Dragon Gate!¡±


    After seeing Zhou Feng put away the map, Qing Wu couldn¡¯t help but urge him.


    Today was the day the Dragon Gate Festival would begin.


    If they were late, they wouldn¡¯t be able to get a good seat.


    ¡°Okay.¡±


    Zhou Feng agreed.


    It just so happened that his original plan was to blend in during the Dragon Gate Festival. In the end, he would change his appearance and leave the Dragon Palace.


    Regarding the third bloodline simulation, he had already prepared it.


    It was an extremely ordinary sea fish, and its strength was also in the middle. It was neither strong nor weak.


    Its appearance did not have too many characteristics, and it would hardly attract attention.


    Zhou Feng had also summarized and analyzed the trouble he had caused previously.


    If he wanted not to attract attention, the first thing was not to be a maverick and directly pay attention to following the crowd.


    The second thing he needed to do was not to have too many unique features. Otherwise, it would be easy for others to notice him.


    The last thing he needed to do was to reduce his presence.


    If he could accomplish these things, Zhou Feng would be able to continue living peacefully.


    After being unbridled for so long, he finally returned to the world of Gu.


    The Dragon Gate Festival was a first-class event in the Southern Sea.


    In the memories of countless aquatic creatures, this Dragon Gate seemed to have existed since childhood.


    Zhou Feng finally saw the so-called Dragon Gate.


    ¡®It¡¯s just a stone platform?¡¯


    This so-called Dragon Gate was actually just a stone platform.


    There were even countless clumps of moss growing on it. If it weren¡¯t for Qing Wu reminding him, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t even think that this was the so-called Dragon Gate.


    In fact, this was the Dragon Gate, but it was still unactivated.


    Once it was activated, the Dragon Gate would form a golden gate.


    Although the gate would be there, not all aquatic creatures could leap over it.


    Sometimes, the Dragon Gate was clearly right in front of them, but it was just a step away, and they couldn¡¯t cross it no matter how hard they tried.


    Some things couldn¡¯t be explained clearly, so Zhou Feng could only experience it for himself.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s plan, he was prepared to witness the so-called Dragon Gate Festival.


    At the same time, he would mix it up and change his appearance.


    But the situation seemed to be a little wrong now.


    Just now, he felt countless gazes on him.


    Since when was he being targeted by so many people?


    There was something wrong with this!


    ¡°Haha! You¡¯re that little snake with the mutated bloodline! Let me test you!¡±


    The surrounding seawater instantly swept toward Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng was suddenly attacked!

 Chapter 288 - The Golden Cicada Shedding its Shell

    Chapter 288 The Golden Cicada Shedding its Shell


    The ice-cold seawater instantly erupted with a shocking pulling force, and Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was pulled up uncontrollably.


    He frowned, and the Blood Qi in his body began to circulate.


    The sound of the circulating Blood Qi was like the surging of a great river, and it was terrifying


    The violent seawater lost its power in an instant.


    Zhou Feng was like a mountain-suppressing rock-nothing could pull him away.


    At that moment, he finally saw who was ambushing him.


    ¡®That baleen¡­¡¯


    He saw a fat man with a few baleens on both sides of his face sizing him up.


    He was holding a small flag in his hand, and it had the words ¡°Water Control¡± written on


    it.


    Was it the Megakiller Whale Tribe?


    Zhou Feng was only thinking about the Megakiller Whale that had clashed with him previously.


    Because of the sudden change, all the aquatic creatures present looked at Zhou Feng in unison.


    He became the focus of everyone¡¯s attention once again.


    And this time, it wasn¡¯t because he wanted to, but because he was forced.


    ¡°He really has some skill! The Azure Sea Snake Tribe doesn¡¯t have this kind of ability!¡±


    ¡°Let me give it a try!¡±


    This wasn¡¯t the end. Many more followed suit after one aquatic creature tried, surrounding Zhu Feng and attacking him.


    This time, Zhou Feng felt a familiar aura.


    ¡®Wait! Isn¡¯t this the aura of the Azure Sea Snake?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect that even the Azure Sea Snake Tribe would be testing him.


    A poisonous fog instantly infected the surrounding seawater, and the rotten stench immediately caused many aquatic creatures to retreat dozens of meters.


    This mere poisonous fog did not pose any threat to Zhou Feng at all.


    One had to know that he had the passive Poison Immunity. Even though this poison was very powerful, it was still not powerful enough to render this passive skill useless.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not dodge at all and just stood still on the spot.


    There was no change on his face either.


    ¡°It really is the Azure Sea Snake Tribe! This poison doesn¡¯t have any effect at all!¡±


    ¡°It seems like it¡¯s a bloodline mutation!¡±


    ¡°It should be!¡±


    IL11


    Looking at Zhou Feng, who hadn¡¯t changed at all, the major forces verified that Zhou Feng was indeed from the Azure Sea Snake Tribe. After all, only the Azure Sea Snakes were completely immune to this poison.


    He didn¡¯t even need to dodge. The bloodline of the Azure Sea Snake Tribe just now was the best antidote.


    ¡°Interesting! Let me give it a try too!¡±


    Perhaps because Zhou Feng didn¡¯t move too much, another aquatic creature wanted to test his strength.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm eyes instantly became sharp.


    Vigorous Blood Qi soared into the water, and the surrounding seawater began to boil.


    Scarlet dragons that were extremely thick pierced through the sea and shot into the sea surface.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng unleashed a punch with all his strength. ¡°What!?¡±


    ¡°Such potent Blood Qi!? Could he be a true dragon bloodline?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden burst of strength stunned countless aquatic creatures.


    No one had expected that the Blood Qi he released was so shocking. If someone told them he was a true dragon, the aquatic creatures present would believe it.


    This was simply too inconceivable.


    The most astonishing thing was that they had just wanted to test out Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    This was an enormous Rank-9 Sea Serpent General.


    Originally, it only wanted to bully the younger generation, but it didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to attack suddenly.


    ¡°You!¡±


    The violent, bloody aura directly smashed onto the enormous Sea Serpent¡¯s body.


    Another punch!


    The seawater became muddy, and a huge crack appeared on the seabed.


    The passive Fighting Spirit, Armor-Piercing Spear, Aura Blade, and other skills were all triggered simultaneously.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current combat strength could not be measured purely by his realm. Instead, he had to consider all kinds of passive skill and the characteristics of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    ¡°Stop!¡±


    Ju Kuo, who was holding the water-controlling flag, sensed Zhou Feng¡¯s killing intent and immediately tried to stop him.


    They had colluded to test Zhou Feng, but things didn¡¯t seem to be developing as they imagined right now.


    In order to avoid accidents, Ju Kuo slightly moved the water-controlling flag in his hand.


    More seawater condensed and formed a few heavy water drops that fell on Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    Zhou Feng was still the same. He did not dodge and allowed heavy water drops to land on his body.


    Boom!


    His entire body was pressed into the bottom of the sea.


    Don¡¯t look at those drops of water as if they were light as a feather.


    However, in reality, this was the heavy water that Ju Kuo had condensed using the water-controlling in his hand.


    A single drop of water had the strength of a thousand catties. An ordinary person couldn¡¯t withstand it.


    However, Ju Kuo only wanted to stop Zhou Feng.


    Therefore, these drops of heavy water moved very slowly. As long as one¡¯s reaction was fast enough, it would still be very easy to dodge.


    However, Zhou Feng had no intention of dodging at all.


    Endless particles of mud were raised up.


    ¡°This¡­ His aura has disappeared!?¡±


    Along with the endless mud, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura also disappeared in an instant.


    ¡°Impossible! This¡­¡±


    ¡°Dead? He died just like that?¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    The moment Zhou Feng¡¯s aura disappeared, the aquatic creatures watching the show were all dumbfounded.


    Such an outcome was something that none of the aquatic creatures had expected.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was truly intense.


    His cultivation was already close to the Daemon King rank.


    Logically speaking, those few drops of heavy water were not enough to take Zhou Feng¡¯s life.


    How did his aura disappear?


    ¡°Brother Shi!¡±


    Among them, Qing Wu was the most heartbroken. After all, to him, Zhou Feng was an extremely strong thigh.


    How did his aura disappear all of a sudden?


    In reality, Zhou Feng had used a trick to escape.


    If this continued, he might receive even more attention because of his outstanding performance.


    Perhaps, at that time, some Daemon Kings would set their eyes on Zhou Feng.


    At that time, it would be difficult to escape.


    In the end, Zhou Feng was a human. He didn¡¯t want to stay in the Southern Sea for his whole life.


    Therefore, he used this golden-cicada tactic to escape.


    He had formulated a plan before this.


    In order to make it real, he had killed an Azure Sea Snake and merged his own Blood Qi into it.


    Just now, he used his passive Bloodline Simulation to simulate the bloodline of an Angelfish. Then, he took the corpse that he had prepared out of his storage ring.


    Finally, he used the Aquamarine Breathing Technique that he had just learned to conceal his entire body¡¯s aura. Then, he used the mud that filled the water to blend into the surrounding aquatic creatures.


    This entire action was done in one go. There were no Daemon Kings present, so this plan was a success.


    Previously, no aquatic creatures would have thought that Zhou Feng was a human or that he would use the golden cicada¡¯s escape technique under the watchful eyes of everyone.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng was completely undiscovered.


    He successfully escaped.


    ¡°Brother Shi! Brother Shi!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Qing Wu, who was crying like the heavens had collapsed.


    Zhou Feng could heave a sigh of relief now.


    He could finally develop in a low-key manner and not have to endure so many gazes.


    When the mud dissipated, the group of aquatic creatures only saw two corpses.


    One was the Sea Serpent Zhou Feng had beaten to death, and the other was the Azure Sea Snake¡¯s corpse that Zhou Feng had prepared earlier.


    With regards to this outcome, Ju Kuo was completely dumbfounded.


    ¡°No! How did this¡­¡±

 Chapter 289 - Dragon Gate Change

    Chapter 289 Dragon Gate Change


    ¡°He¡¯s dead! How could he¡­¡±


    ¡°That little snake seems to be the husband chosen by the Fifth Princess!¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Regarding Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden death, the faces of the surrounding aquatic creatures watching the show betrayed their shock and disbelief.


    How could he die just like that?


    The Dragon Gate Festival had just begun, and a young genius with such potential had died.


    Furthermore, Zhou Feng had been recorded by the Fifth Princess.


    As such, the aquatic creature that had attacked Zhou Feng just now would be in trouble.


    ¡°However, Qing Shi was indeed worthy of his mutated bloodline. He even killed someone before dying!¡±


    ¡°The Megakiller Whale Tribe is indeed overbearing. Just because of some friction, they killed him.¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this normal? The Megakiller Whale Tribe is already used to being arrogant.¡±


    Looking at the lingering aura and the body that had already been smashed, the aquatic creatures all thought that Zhou Feng had just died under the heavy water.


    A single drop of heavy water had the strength of a thousand catties, and these ten or so drops smashed onto the body.


    If the body weren¡¯t strong enough, it would be normal for it to be shattered in an instant.


    No one present had expected that Zhou Feng had mastered the Aquamarine Breathing Technique, a powerful aura-concealing technique.


    He could even transform and simulate his bloodline at will.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng¡¯s golden cicada escape was executed perfectly. Ju Kuo¡¯s face was also full of regret at this time. How could he have suddenly struck so heavily?


    No matter how hard the Megakiller Whale Tribe tried to explain it, they couldn¡¯t give a clear explanation.


    After all, Zhou Feng had had a conflict with the Megakiller Whale Tribe before, so it would be very easy to find out.


    If he said it wasn¡¯t intentional, no one would believe him.


    ¡°The Dragon Sovereign has arrived!¡±


    Suddenly, a noble aura descended.


    Without giving the aquatic creatures present time to react, a huge Flood Dragon swam over from afar.


    ¡®It¡¯s so Big!¡¯


    Zhou Feng, hiding at the side, witnessed the terrifying Flood Dragon¡¯s body.


    That huge body seemed to have been magnified more than ten times.


    The horn on the Flood Dragon¡¯s head was like a real dragon¡¯s, oozing out an irresistible power.


    That pair of indifferent eyes made it impossible for people to look straight at it.


    This was the current ruler of the Southern Sea, Ao Lie, who was known as the Dragon Sovereign.


    Ao Lie¡¯s appearance instantly shocked everyone. Soon, the body of the Flood Dragon turned into human form, and a refined middle-aged man appeared in front of the group of aquatic creatures.


    Compared to his real body, Ao Lie¡¯s human form was surprisingly refined.


    Behind Ao Lie was the Fifth Princess, Ao Shan.


    It turned out that Ao Shan had been riding on Ao Lie.


    When Ao Lie turned into human form, Ao Shan appeared in front of a group of aquatic creatures.


    As expected, only the old Dragon Sovereign¡¯s most beloved daughter dared to ride on the old Dragon Sovereign¡¯s body.


    This kind of treatment was probably something that those sons of his had never enjoyed before.


    ¡°Everyone! Let¡¯s not talk anymore! Let¡¯s begin the Dragon Gate Festival!¡±


    Ao Lie did not waste any more words and began to preside over the Dragon Gate Festival.


    After all, compared to humans, the aquatic race¡¯s temperament was still relatively straightforward.


    Ao Lie spat out a mouthful of Dragon Qi from his mouth.


    In an instant, the originally mottled Dragon Gate had a reaction, and a dragon roar resounded throughout the area. Following that, golden Dragon Qi flew out and formed a huge gate.


    This gate was faintly discernible, giving people a dreamy and illusory feeling.


    The bloodlines of all the aquatic creatures present immediately began to riot.


    ¡°Charge!¡±


    ¡°Charge!¡±


    The Dragon Gate appeared, and none of the aquatic creatures present could endure it.


    In an instant, the geniuses who had been hiding for a long time finally couldn¡¯t hide anymore.


    More than a dozen geniuses who were about to break through to the Daemon King rank erupted with terrifying auras.


    For these people, jumping through the Dragon Gate was actually equivalent to breaking through to the Daemon King rank.


    Apart from purifying the bloodline, the Dragon Gate also had the effect of assisting in breaking through bottlenecks.


    After waiting for so long, these geniuses stuck at the Daemon General rank could finally advance today.


    ¡°This is crazy!¡¯


    Zhou Feng witnessed this crazy scene with his own eyes.


    The aquatic creatures at the side all wanted to go crazy.


    Even if they were squeezed until their heads were bleeding, they still had to charge forward.


    In fact, the more they advanced, the fiercer the battle became.


    Some of the aquatic creatures even secretly made vicious moves.


    They would be able to advance one step further by killing the aquatic creatures next to them.


    Originally, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to go forward. He only wanted to fish in troubled waters.


    After the Dragon Gate Festival was over, he would quietly slip away.


    However, he couldn¡¯t withstand the aquatic creatures pushing him forward.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t waste much energy relying on his extremely terrifying physical body.


    Still, he was pushed to the front.


    Among the large tribes, Zhou Feng¡¯s Angelfish bloodline was somewhat dazzling.


    Those who could squeeze into the front were almost all from famous large tribes.


    For example, the one at the front was the Frost Flood Dragonsnake bloodline, the Megakiller Whale bloodline, and the Swordfish bloodline that was born with sword bones.


    Zhou Feng was like a beggar who blended into a group of princes and princes.


    ¡°Eh? There¡¯s another dark horse?¡±


    ¡°This seems to be the most ordinary bloodline, but it can actually squeeze into the top 100?¡±


    ¡°Yeah! Recently, it seems that geniuses have frequently been appearing!¡±


    ¡°This is a sign of the great prosperity of our Southern Sea!¡±


    A few aquatic creatures beside Ao Lie immediately began to flatter him in a roundabout way.


    This was because Ao Lie had not been in a good mood recently.


    The Dragon Palace had previously suffered quite a lot on land, and Ao Lie was currently in a rage.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    Ao Lie looked at Zhou Feng and nodded slightly.


    Indeed, to squeeze into such a high position with such an ordinary bloodline¡­


    He could be considered a genius!


    If he could successfully jump through the Dragon Gate and trigger a trace of the true dragon bloodline¡­


    Then he would even be qualified to become the husband of his daughter.


    ¡°What about the little snake?¡±


    Ao Shan was looking for the little snake that she had met before.


    Zhou Feng had left a deep impression on Ao Shan.


    ¡®Given the little snake¡¯s strength, it should be able to make a name for itself this time. Why hasn¡¯t it appeared yet?¡¯


    ¡°Little Shan, what did you say?¡± Ao Lie asked when he heard his precious daughter mumbling something.


    ¡°Nothing!¡±


    Since she couldn¡¯t see the little snake, then forget it. Ao Shan wasn¡¯t too persistent.


    ¡°Oh no!¡¯ Zhou Feng cried out in his heart.


    He seemed to be in a bad situation now.


    As he got closer and closer to the glowing Dragon Gate, all the aquatic creatures seemed to be met with huge resistance.


    The leading Frost Flood Dragonsnake looked constipated as it got closer to the Dragon


    Gate.


    However, Zhou Feng did not feel any resistance. Instead, he felt a suction force.


    The Dragon Gate was letting him pass?


    At the same time, the Human Emperor Blood in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to boil.


    The Human Emperor Blood that was previously difficult to condense began to condense.


    His human bloodline was being consumed, and threads of golden blood began to condense.


    ¡®What should I do? If this continues, I will definitely be noticed!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was doing his best to resist the terrifying suction force.

 Chapter 290 - Consecutive Breakthroughs

    Chapter 290 Consecutive Breakthroughs


    The dragon¡¯s roar kept ringing in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears while the blood in his body was burning crazily.


    This is¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng had never expected such a change to happen.


    But judging from the result, this change seemed to help him greatly.


    He had been unable to condense more Human Emperor Blood in his body and had to rely on the Malevolent Earth Qi to temper his body continuously.


    Only then could he break through the bottleneck and condense a trace of the Human Emperor Blood.


    The amount of the Human Emperor Blood also represented the progress of cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.


    It was like a turtle crawling before, but now it was suddenly like riding a rocket.


    The most ordinary bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was being removed and replaced by the noble Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline.


    Under normal circumstances, he would be very happy to see this change because it would only benefit him.


    But now, Zhou Feng was in the Southern Sea.


    Countless aquatic creatures were watching him, with plenty of Daemon Kings among them.


    There was also the Dragon Sovereign, who was a step away from breaking through his realm.


    If this continued, wouldn¡¯t Zhou Feng be exposed?


    If they found he was a human, he would be in trouble.


    ¡®What should I do?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t show any expression on his face, but he was thinking quickly in his heart.


    ¡®How should I deal with this situation now?¡¯


    After thinking for a while, he realized that he couldn¡¯t fight back, so he might as well be braver.


    He would think about what would happen later.


    Now, he would take this perfect opportunity to train hard.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t hesitate anymore.


    He gave up resisting and rushed toward the Dragon Gate.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    ¡°How is this possible!¡±


    ¡°Who is that?¡±


    Then, all the aquatic creatures present witnessed Zhou Feng rushing toward the Dragon Gate.


    His speed didn¡¯t decrease at all, and it seemed that there was no resistance at all.


    Such a situation was simply unheard of and unheard of.


    This had never happened in any of the previous Dragon Gate Festivals.


    Zhou Feng instantly leaped through the illusory Dragon Gate under the shocked gazes of the aquatic creatures.


    A massive amount of energy was forcefully poured into his Human Emperor Ring, which then returned this energy to Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Boundless Spiritual Qi transformed into boundless power.


    Zhou Feng, who had been stuck at the 2nd Level of the Purple Mansion realm for who knew how long, frantically broke through his bottleneck.


    In an instant, he stepped into the 3rd Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    The power of his bloodline also began to appear, and golden Blood Qi continuously washed over his body.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s soul began to recite a mysterious scripture on the Soul Altar.


    4th Level of the Purple Mansion realm!


    He broke through again!


    In just a few short minutes, Zhou Feng had once again broken through.


    It was as if all the energy within the Dragon Gate had been supplied to him.


    5th Level of the Purple Mansion realm!


    6th level!


    7th level!


    8th level!


    9th level!


    Zhou Feng was like riding a rocket as he instantly jumped to the 9th level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    Next, he only needed to comprehend a Divine Ability Law before he could attempt to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡°T-this¡­¡±


    ¡°His bloodline hasn¡¯t changed? He hasn¡¯t awakened any other bloodlines?¡±


    ¡°His bloodline is so pure! Even with the power of the Dragon Gate, he couldn¡¯t activate any more powerful bloodlines?¡±


    Zhou Feng leaped through the Dragon Gate in a flash and broke through like a rocket.


    This wasn¡¯t the most shocking part.


    The most shocking part was that the bloodline aura on Zhou Feng¡¯s body hadn¡¯t changed since the beginning.


    It was still an ordinary Angelfish bloodline.


    Normally, after leaping over the Dragon Gate, one would be able to use the power of the Dragon Gate to activate the deepest part of the bloodline in their body.


    The aquatic creatures in the world, even the most ordinary ones, would have a trace of a powerful bloodline.


    It was as if all aquatic creatures had the true dragon bloodline.


    Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng should have used the power of the Dragon Gate to activate the true dragon bloodline.


    This would change his own bloodline.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have it. It was still the extremely pure Angelfish bloodline.


    This was very strange. Could there be such a pure bloodline in the world?


    In reality, Zhou Feng¡¯s Angelfish bloodline was passively simulated. Even if he jumped over the Dragon Gate, his bloodline wouldn¡¯t change under the passive Bloodline Simulation.


    ¡®Fortunately, my human bloodline has not been exposed!¡¯


    Zhou Feng heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.


    Fortunately, the passive Bloodline Simulation was powerful enough to prevent him from being exposed.


    However, even if he had not been exposed, it would be difficult for him to escape in this situation.


    He could already feel that several divine ability realm experts were eyeing him. ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect such a fortuitous encounter!¡±


    The aura on Zhou Feng¡¯s body gradually stabilized.


    Although this unforeseen event made it difficult, it was simply not worth mentioning compared to the benefits he had obtained.


    He broke through to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm!


    Too fast! This was truly too fast!


    If he had continued to cultivate at his original speed, Zhou Feng would have slowly cultivated to the 9th level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    He would probably have to waste several decades of time.


    Without the help of external forces, this was Zhou Feng¡¯s most pessimistic estimation.


    But now, he had directly saved several decades of effort.


    Half of the bloodline in his body had been replaced with the Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline.


    He didn¡¯t know how much his physical body had improved.


    ¡°Haha! Not bad! Not bad! Little angelfish, come here!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had stabilized, Ao Lie immediately laughed out loud and waved his hand.


    It seemed like he was asking Zhou Feng to go over.


    Zhou Feng looked at Ao Lie, who had an amiable expression on his face, and approached after a pause.


    Compared to Zhou Feng, who had a calm expression, the rest of the aquatic creatures were still trying their best to leap over the Dragon Gate.


    ¡°Greetings, Dragon Sovereign!¡±


    Zhou Feng walked up to Ao Lie and greeted him simply.


    Then, he could feel a few scrutinizing gazes on him, one of them belonging to Ao Shan.


    ¡°Not bad! Are you interested in becoming my son-in-law?¡±


    Ao Lie went straight to the point. He did not try to hide his intention to win him over.


    When Zhou Feng heard this, he glanced at Ao Shan.


    ¡°I¡¯m interested!¡± he answered without hesitation, but his tone was rather calm.


    Zhou Feng had learned his lesson. If he continued to do as he had done in the past under such circumstances, he would attract all kinds of trouble.


    It would be better to agree to it and wait until later to plot against it slowly.


    Anyway, Zhou Feng was still using another identity. It did not matter if he agreed to this kind of thing casually.


    ¡°Good! You stand beside me. You can be close to Little Shan!¡±


    Ao Lie nodded in satisfaction when he saw Zhou Feng agree to it.


    He asked Zhou Feng to stand beside him and also to be close to Ao Shan.


    ¡®What a pity!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s hard to refuse when the Dragon Sovereign says it himself!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! With such talent, it¡¯s a pity that you can¡¯t join our tribe!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng directly agreed, a few voices expressing this regret echoed from the side.

 Chapter 291 - Ao Shans Desire to Talk

    Chapter 291 Ao Shan¡¯s Desire to Talk


    ¡®What should I do?¡¯


    Zhou Feng could feel there were already many gazes fixed on him.


    Under such circumstances, it seemed impossible for him to leave quietly.


    To be honest, he had never imagined that things would turn out like this.


    How could he suddenly break through to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm?


    Even half of the bloodline in his body had transformed into the Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline.


    In the middle of this, Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t even done anything. It was as if a huge gift bag had suddenly descended from the sky.


    It was too inconceivable!


    ¡°The destiny of the Human Emperor¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng guessed that this was probably related to the so-called destiny of the Human Emperor.


    As he learned more, he became more familiar with many things.


    As for the legendary Human Emperors, he had learned a lot about their legends.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know whether these legends were true or not.


    But there was one thing that was worth paying attention to.


    After the last Human Emperor disappeared, the so-called Human Emperor successors would emerge every few decades.


    These Human Emperor successors all wanted to restore the first Human Emperor¡¯s era.


    But in the end, they all failed.


    This intermittent succession actually continued until now.


    A few decades ago, there was a so-called successor of the Human Emperor.


    He had even made a great name for himself, but in the end, he was still killed by a heaven¡¯s favorite.


    Zhou Feng had obtained the Human Emperor Scripture, the Human Emperor Ring after that, and the Dragon Gate¡¯s blessing.


    If such a series of events could be said to be a coincidence, it was too much of a coincidence.


    Zhou Feng felt that someone was manipulating him from behind, allowing him to explore and inherit the so-called Human Emperor¡¯s legacy step by step.


    Before this, Zhou Feng had not had such a clear feeling.


    But now, this feeling was becoming more and more obvious.


    ¡®Something like destiny¡­¡¯


    Regarding the so-called destiny, he only felt that it was an illusory thing.


    But sometimes, you had to believe in the existence of such a thing.


    ¡®What¡¯s the point of caring so much? Anyway, if there are benefits, just keep them. If there¡¯s trouble, just hide!¡¯


    Zhou Feng calmed down.


    In fact, it was useless for him to think so much.


    Rather than thinking about things, it was better to improve himself in peace.


    What was the saying? Eat the icing on the cake and throw the cannonball back.


    ¡°Hey! Do you think I¡¯m pretty?¡±


    Zhou Feng had been contemplating and hadn¡¯t looked at Ao Shan at all, which made Ao Shan extremely curious.


    Even those aquatic creatures who wanted to attract her attention and deliberately stood in front of her would still peek at her behind her back.


    Why were this little angelfish in front of her standing right next to her and not interested in her at all?


    Ao Shan was very clear about the attraction of her true dragon bloodline to ordinary aquatic creatures.


    This pure true dragon bloodline was a deadly poison to other aquatic creatures. No aquatic creature who saw Ao Shan could suppress that kind of physical instinct.


    This kind of bloodline attraction could only be resisted when one reached the Daemon King rank.


    It was precisely because of this that Ao Shan had been pursued countless times since she was born.


    Almost every aquatic creature beside her seemed to be in heat.


    That kind of behavior annoyed Ao Shan. Now, she actually saw a normal aquatic creature all of a sudden, and it instantly aroused her interest.


    Therefore, she directly asked Zhou Feng whether she was pretty or not. She wanted to see if Zhou Feng was pretending to be so calm.


    ¡°Huh! Huh?¡±


    Zhou Feng still hadn¡¯t reacted to it.


    Then, he instantly realized that Ao Shan was asking him.


    He immediately realized that his behavior wasn¡¯t normal.


    A normal aquatic creature should act like a licking dog before the Fifth Princess.


    Zhou Feng was too calm and too normal, so it was very easy to attract attention. This did not conform to the low-key strategy that Zhou Feng had previously confirmed.


    ¡°Beautiful! Of course, the Fifth Princess is beautiful! Your appearance is simply unrivaled in the four seas!¡±


    After his train of thought changed, Zhou Feng immediately began to lick awkwardly. He did not even know how he managed to utter those words just now.


    It was simply embarrassing to death.


    But in order to keep in sync with the other aquatic creatures and avoid being exposed, Zhou Feng still said such mushy words with an expressionless face.


    ¡°Is that so?¡± Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s expressionless face.


    The interest in her heart was immediately aroused.


    She approached Zhou Feng and stared into his eyes.


    ¡°Of course!¡±


    Zhou Feng forced a smile on his face.


    ¡°I don¡¯t believe You! This is not what you think!¡±


    Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng from head to toe.


    She said she did not believe him and wanted to see how Zhou Feng would answer.


    ¡®So troublesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly felt that it was too difficult to pretend to be like other aquatic creatures!


    After all, he was not the type to lick a dog.


    Even if he had to pretend, it would be very difficult.


    After thinking about it, Zhou Feng felt that it was better to be himself.


    After all, he had not been exposed when he had just jumped through the Dragon Gate, so it was even more impossible for him to be exposed now.


    ¡°If the Fifth Princess doesn¡¯t believe me, there¡¯s nothing I can do.¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately wore a dull expression and looked like he did not want to pay attention to Ao Shan.


    ¡°Eh? You are different from the other pieces of trash. Logically speaking, your bloodline shouldn¡¯t be able to transform perfectly. Can you tell me how you did it?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s retort made Ao Shan interested again.


    The little fish in front of her was different from the other aquatic creatures.


    It could resist the temptation of her bloodline, and it could even transform with the bloodline of an ordinary sea fish.


    ¡°I transformed just like that.¡±


    While Zhou Feng was dealing with Ao Shan, he opened the skill panel.


    He had suddenly broken through so many realms, so the skill panel should have a lot of changes. At least there would be a few chances to draw a passive skill!


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    It was not easy for Ao Shan to meet a person who was close to her and that would not go into heat.


    The desire to chat was abnormally high. After all, from birth until now, there were too few normal aquatic creatures that could chat with Ao Shan.


    The true dragon bloodline in her body was too attractive.


    Even the desire in Ao Shan¡¯s older brothers¡¯ eyes sparked when they met Ao Shan.


    It was a kind of covetous bloodline.


    It was almost impossible to cure and could only be suppressed by one¡¯s will.


    Hence, Ao Shan could only communicate normally with the old Dragon Sovereign since she was young


    After all, Ao Lie¡¯s cultivation was at the pinnacle, and his bloodline was almost that of a true dragon. He would not be affected by Ao Shan¡¯s true dragon bloodline.


    However, Ao Lie was the Dragon Sovereign, meaning he had not had much time to play with Ao Shan.


    Thus, Ao Shan¡¯s desire to talk could only be accumulated.


    Now that she had met Zhou Feng-an aquatic creature that could communicate normallyAo Shan couldn¡¯t hold back her desire to talk.

 Chapter 292 - Passive: Interacial Killer

    Chapter 292 Passive: Interacial Killer


    ¡°How is this possible!? Am I seeing things?¡±


    ¡°The Fifth Princess¡­ Why is the Fifth Princess taking the initiative?¡±


    ¡°And why does that kid look like he¡¯s putting up with it? What¡¯s going on?¡±


    When the surrounding aquatic geniuses saw that Ao Shan took the initiative to chat with Zhou Feng, they were stunned.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng looked as if he was putting up with her.


    This scene had a severe impact on their worldview.


    Why would the arrogant Fifth Princess take the initiative to chat with a kid with an ordinary bloodline?


    And why was this kid so impatient?


    Why? Why was this happening!?


    Ao Shan was like a goddess whom they put their everything into bootlicking all day, yet she took the initiative to chat with a poor kid.


    This was simply inconceivable. ¡°Oh?¡±


    Even Ao Lie was slightly surprised because his daughter had never acted this way to others. Except when facing himself.


    ¡°This is also good. As long as the true dragon bloodline can continue, it¡¯s enough.¡¯ Although Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline was very ordinary, Ao Lie would not have believed it if there was no secret to reaching his current cultivation level.


    The most extraordinary thing was that he looked so ordinary. Given Zhou Feng¡¯s performance, he had already passed Ao Lie¡¯s test by leaping through the Dragon Gate. It was not too shameful for him to become the Dragon Sovereign¡¯s son-in-law with such talent.


    Moreover, it was even more important for Ao Lie to make Ao Shan not hate him.


    As long as Ao Shan did not hate Zhou Feng, it meant that the two of them would soon be able to give birth to a child.


    If he could get a grandson as soon as possible, Ao Lie would not care so much.


    ¡®As expected, it¡¯s still like this in the end. That¡¯s why I can¡¯t keep a low profile¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the jealous gazes around him.


    He now understood.


    Previously, he had always wanted to keep a low profile and live a low life, but in reality, that was almost impossible as long as he wanted to make a difference on the path of cultivation,


    Cultivators must fight! Fight with the heavens! Fight with the earth! And fight with people!


    Zhou Feng wanted to live a low life and rely on the skill panel to attain immortality. This was obviously an unrealistic dream.


    Even if he didn¡¯t want to cause trouble, an invisible hand would always push him behind his back.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mentality changed several times, but in the end, he came to a conclusion-he had to be a little more wanton! He had to be arrogant.


    Being a turtle affected not only his mentality but also his next actions.


    Don¡¯t look at this as just a change in mentality.


    This was already a great improvement for Zhou Feng


    At that moment, he just adapted to this world and the mentality of this world¡¯s cultivators.


    With this point in mind, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire aura immediately rippled. He also looked much more relaxed.


    Although he did not look much different from before, Ao Shan felt Zhou Feng¡¯s change.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Why did your aura become a little stronger?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡± Zhou Feng looked at Ao Shan indifferently.


    He did not answer. There was a hint of recklessness and high spirits between his brows.


    He had returned to his previous self.


    He was no longer cowering because he had gone deep into the sea or because of the high-pressure environment around him.


    ¡°You have a temper!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng did not pay attention to her and did not even give her a perfunctory reply, Ao Shan¡¯s temper instantly rose.


    If Zhou Feng had given her a perfunctory reply, Ao Shan couldn¡¯t have cared less. After all, in Ao Shan¡¯s eyes, what Zhou Feng thought was not important.


    She just wanted someone who could vent her depression for so many years.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s current attitude made her very unhappy.


    Who was Ao Shan?


    She was born with the purest true dragon bloodline. It was said that her mother was a true dragon.


    She had traveled to the Southern Sea and gotten together with Ao Lie by chance.


    Finally, she gave birth to a daughter for Ao Lie and then left.


    Ao Shan had enjoyed everyone¡¯s love since she was young


    Even when Ao Lie transformed into a dragon, Ao Shan could ride on him.


    Now, there was actually someone who dared not to give her face.


    Ao Shan could not hold it in anymore.


    ¡°Come, come, come! Let me see what you have to be proud of! You are even more arrogant than me!¡±


    Ao Shan was ready to fight Zhou Feng. She wanted Zhou Feng to wake up and realize what true power meant.


    ¡°Father, I want to fight with this little fish!¡±


    Ao Lie looked interested when he heard Ao Shan¡¯s words.


    Even the Chieftains watching the ceremony turned their heads and looked over.


    The Dragon Gate Festival had just come to an end.


    There were even a few geniuses who had used the power of the Dragon Gate to break through to the Daemon King rank in one go.


    Now, they only needed to comprehend one divine ability to become a Daemon King truly.


    Originally, according to the original script, there would be another martial arts competition after the Dragon Gate Festival ended.


    It would be used to select Ao Shan¡¯s husband, but who would have thought that Ao Shan would actually take the initiative to challenge Zhou Feng?


    ¡°Hmph! Why does the Fifth Princess have to do it herself? As long as I make a move, this little fish will become a dead fish!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! There¡¯s no need for the Fifth Princess to do it herself!¡±


    ¡°Just one word¡­¡±


    The moment Ao Shan said this, the crowd immediately became excited.


    These geniuses were already unhappy with Zhou Feng as he had managed to earn the Fifth Princess¡¯s favor.


    Forget about that. The most infuriating thing was that this kid actually looked down on the Fifth Princess¡¯s favor.


    One had to know that they usually tried to curry favor with Ao Shan, but Ao Shan also did not care.


    Now, Zhou Feng actually did not care about Ao Shan. Didn¡¯t this make them look like trash?


    ¡°If you have the guts, then fight me! Don¡¯t hide up there like a piece oftrash!¡± ¡°Yes! Fight me!¡±


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng momentarily became everyone¡¯s target.


    As a human, he became the target of countless aquatic creatures in this situation.


    If it was Zhou Feng from before, he would have been extremely nervous.


    But now, he was calm.


    He even had the energy to look at the skill panel.


    ¡®Sure enough, there are draws. But why only two? Logically speaking, there should be many draw chances since I have broken through so many realms consecutively¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little puzzled.


    Every breakthrough would almost always come with a chance to draw passive skills.


    But now, there were only two.


    Could it be because of the Dragon Gate breakthrough?


    Still, only two times were not bad.


    This was equivalent to getting two passive skills for nothing.


    ¡®Draw!¡¯


    Zhou Feng chose to draw directly. The more passive skills he had in the current environment, the better.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    While the crowd was excited, he was still quietly drawing passive skills.


    Zhou Feng would not have been able to do this in the past.


    Interacial Killer: When facing enemies other than humans, your damage will increase by 20%.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s pupils contracted slightly when he saw this passive skill.


    Didn¡¯t this just happen to hit the muzzle of the gun?

 Chapter 293 - Blood Qi Recovery

    Chapter 293 Blood Qi Recovery


    Zhou Feng did not expect to be able to draw such a passive skill.


    It directly caused 20% additional damage to the experts of a different race.


    In other words, when he fought against non-human cultivators, he would have a huge advantage.


    And in this world, although humans dominated the land, there were still many non-human cultivators.


    Some of the other races¡¯ strength was not weak, but the humans were too strong.


    ¡°Little Shan, what do you think?¡±


    Ao Lie did not pay attention to the excited aquatic creatures around him. He just handed the decision to his precious daughter.


    It had to be said that Ao Lie did not hide his love for Ao Shan at all.


    ¡°Good! I also want to see how strong you


    are!¡±


    Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng, who did not care at all. She wanted to see how strong this little fish was.


    Such an ordinary bloodline did not have a bloodline inheritance, nor did it have any natural treasures to assist in cultivation.


    She wanted to see if Zhou Feng could deal with these geniuses.


    ¡®Draw!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was currently immersed in drawing passive skills.


    Since a battle was inevitable, he might as well use this time to draw another passive skill.


    He wanted to increase his strength. ¡°Drawing!¡± ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Blood Qi Recovery: The Blood Qi that escapes during battle can be recovered by 30%.


    Zhou Feng frowned when he saw this new passive skill.


    Blood Qi recovery? It could recover 30% of the Blood Qi that escapes?


    Was this meant to suck blood?


    According to his understanding, this passive skill was actually equivalent to 30% of the Blood Q? that escaped during battle. The Blood Qi that dissipated during battle could actually be recovered?


    Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to a super-powerful passive skill that could last for a long time?


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body became stronger, each attack would mobilize a large amount of Blood Qi in his body.


    With this Blood Qi that was like a wave, he could shatter mountains with his physical body and tear spiritual artifacts with his hands.


    Similarly, the amount of Blood Qi that was consumed was also increasing.


    Although the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was like the ocean, almost endless, such a skill, coupled with the passive Whetstone, increased his endurance.


    A prolonged battle seemed to be able to become a tactic.


    ¡°Good! Since that¡¯s the case, let¡¯s make everyone happy!¡±


    After Ao Lie heard Ao Shan¡¯s words, he immediately erupted with the flood dragon power in his body.


    The surrounding seawater started to gather crazily, forming a huge water prison.


    There was also a Flood dragon formed by the mystic Yin Primordial Water around the water prison.


    That supreme power made Zhou Feng wake up from his distracted state.


    ¡°Let the prodigy of the Megakiller Whale Tribe come first!¡±


    After Ao Lie formed this water prison with one hand, he chose a warrior to fight against Zhou Feng.


    That was Ju Lin of the Megakiller Whale Tribe.


    ¡°Megakiller Whale Tribe¡­¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°Is it because of that matter?¡±


    II


    11


    Ao Lie¡¯s choice immediately made the surrounding aquatic creatures think of the Azure Sea Snake that was strangled in its cradle by the Megakiller Whale Tribe before the Dragon Gate Festival.


    Two true geniuses might have appeared today if it weren¡¯t for the Megakiller Whale Tribe.


    ¡°Since it¡¯s a competition, we can¡¯t be stingy with the rewards!¡±


    Ao Lie also knew how to stir up the atmosphere.


    He knew that a simple competition was very difficult to be enthusiastic about. There had to be enough rewards in order to stimulate the crowd.


    ¡°As long as you stand in the water prison at the end, you¡¯ll get a chance to enter the Dragon Palace Mystic Realm!


    ¡°And you can have a master craftsman of the Dragon Palace forge a spiritual artifact for you!


    ¡°And you can become the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace at the end!¡±


    Ao Lie announced three rewards in a row.


    At that moment, the eyes of all the aquatic creatures were burning with passion.


    This reward was too generous!


    The first reward, entering the Dragon Palace¡¯s mystic realm, was the worst reward for many large tribes.


    After all, there were quite a number of places to enter the secret realm of the Dragon Palace every year.


    There weren¡¯t many good things left in there, so they could go in to train for a period.


    As for the second reward, it did attract quite a number of aquatic creatures.


    A spiritual weapon wasn¡¯t rare, but the most important thing was that it was forged by a master craftsman of the Dragon Palace.


    This meant that this spiritual weapon had a


    spirit!


    It had the potential to be upgraded to a dao weapon.


    This was equivalent to a half-dao artifact, as long as it was properly nurtured on the spiritual altar.


    Wouldn¡¯t it be stable to obtain a dao artifact?


    The thing that drove these aquatic creatures crazy the most was the last reward.


    Becoming the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace!


    To be able to take in a true dragon bloodline like the Fifth Princess was simply a supreme blessing


    To these aquatic creatures, being able to climb onto the Fifth Princess¡¯ dragon bed was simply a supreme glory. After all, if one were to throw away the true dragon bloodline, Ao Shan¡¯s appearance was not bad.


    In some people¡¯s eyes, the pair of crystal clear dragon horns on Ao Shan¡¯s head was a real battle weapon.


    ¡°Father!¡±


    Ao Shan did not expect her father to use this opportunity to force her.


    ¡°Litter Shan, you must listen to your father on this matter!¡±


    Ao Lie did not go along with his precious daughter this time.


    The true dragon bloodline in Ao Shan was very important to the Dragon Palace.


    Only the true dragon bloodline could be passed down, so the Southern Sea would always belong to the Dragon Palace.


    It was related to the inheritance of the Dragon Palace, so he naturally would not give Ao Shan a chance to be willful.


    ¡®Dragon Palace¡¯s mystic realm!?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard about the mystic realm, his eyes immediately lit up.


    Was this the so-called ¡°Once in a blue moon¡±?


    He had originally planned to give up and leave the Southern Sea.


    But in the end, he still had this trick.


    If he could enter the mystic realm, he could use the guidance of the Human Emperor Ring.


    After finding the Human Emperor¡¯s inheritance, he would have the follow-up cultivation method of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng had already reached the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    The follow-up cultivation technique was extremely important to him.


    Because there was no follow-up cultivation technique, it meant that he wouldn¡¯t be able to comprehend any divine abilities, so he wouldn¡¯t be able to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    On the contrary, the two rewards at the end were dispensable to him.


    ¡®Damn it!


    After sensing her father¡¯s will, Ao Shan also understood that she couldn¡¯t drag this on any longer.


    When she thought of those aquatic creatures that were in heat, Ao Shan felt bad.


    Instead of the other aquatic creatures, it would be better¡­


    Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng at this moment. Compared to the other aquatic creatures, Zhou Feng was considered better.


    At the very least, he wouldn¡¯t look at her with that kind of disgusting gaze.


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart would still have an effect even when he was using the passive Bloodline Simulation.


    This allowed him to become a Super Sea King.


    This little fish had the weakest Angelfish bloodline, and the tribe behind it wasn¡¯t big.


    If he became her husband, how could she not have the final say in the future!?


    After understanding this point, Ao Shan said to Zhou Feng in a commanding tone. ¡°You! I order you to stand at the end!¡±


    Then, she stuffed something into Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    Zhou Feng was dumbfounded because the thing in his hand actually made his blood boil.


    Again!?

 Chapter 294 - Violent Thrashing!

    Chapter 294 Violent Thrashing!


    How many times had it been?


    After Zhou Feng felt the boiling bloodline power, he was completely dumbfounded.


    This feeling was even more powerful than when he had just leaped through the Dragon Gate.


    That wisp of scorching aura made his arm slightly itchy.


    ¡°This is¡­ a scale?¡¯


    He looked at the thing in his hand. It was actually a scale.


    ¡°This couldn¡¯t be a dragon scale, right!?¡±


    Zhou Feng had also felt this level of aura not long ago.


    It was from the Xuanwu armor¡¯s scale that he had obtained from the Azumarine Turtle Tribe.


    ¡°Little Shan!¡±


    Ao Lie immediately felt the true dragon¡¯s aura. He would never forget the night he and a true dragon had an intimate night.


    Unfortunately, after that night, Ao Lie didn¡¯t have the chance to enjoy this privilege again. No matter how much he bootlicked, it was useless.


    In the end, the true dragon had left behind a daughter and departed quietly.


    ¡°HMPH! This is mine! Even Father is not qualified to have something like this!¡±


    Ao Shan¡¯s mother had left this scale to her, and Ao Shan temporarily lent it to Zhou Feng. She wanted to ensure that Zhou Feng would be the last aquatic creature standing at the end of this chaotic battle.


    This was also Ao Shan¡¯s way of resistance.


    Even if Zhou Feng disappointed Ao Shan in the end, she could take back the true dragon¡¯s scale.


    That¡¯s right! This was only a temporary loan to Zhou Feng


    ¡°Sigh¡­¡±


    Ao Lie didn¡¯t say anything in the end.


    After all, Ao Shan¡¯s mother had left that behind for her daughter.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care about this father and daughter at all. What he cared about was being able to enter the mystic realm.


    The most important task at hand was to get the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s second half.


    Zhou Feng and Ju Lin both entered the water prison. The battle for the son-in-law of the Dragon Sovereign began immediately.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s opponent this time was Ju Lin, whom he had met once before.


    But at this time, Ju Lin looked a little unhappy.


    ¡®Dead¡­ That little snake is dead!¡¯


    Ju Lin still couldn¡¯t get over it.


    Ju Lin¡¯s elder had ¡®killed¡¯ Zhou Feng¡¯s previous identity, so Ju Lin was unreconciled. After all, Ju Lin had already treated Zhou Feng as his opponent.


    It wasn¡¯t difficult for him to kill that little snake, given his strength. Yet, his elder killed Zhou Feng, which made Ju Lin unable to raise his head.


    This was because some of the aquatic creatures were spreading that Ju Lin had shamelessly called for his elder to make a move and get rid of his opponent.


    This kind of practice was extremely disgraceful among the aquatic creatures as strength was paramount to them.


    ¡°Hmph! Little fish, I advise you to surrender quickly! Otherwise, I won¡¯t hold back!¡±


    Ju Lin glanced at Zhou Feng, and disdain appeared on his face.


    This little fish in front of him was even more unbearable than that Azure Sea Snake.


    He had relied on the Dragon Gate to increase his cultivation level forcefully, so he didn¡¯t put Ju Lin in his eyes.


    And Ju Lin was one of the few prodigies who had successfully broken through to the Daemon King rank during the Dragon Gate Festival.


    As a member of the Megakiller Whale Tribe, Ju Lin had a very deep foundation and accumulation.


    It wasn¡¯t difficult for him to break through to the Daemon King rank with the help of the Dragon Gate.


    Ju Lin only needed to comprehend one divine ability to be called a Daemon King truly.


    Thus, there was a reason why he looked down on Zhou Feng How could a Daemon King lose against a Daemon General?


    ¡®A Daemon King who hasn¡¯t comprehended a divine ability?¡¯


    There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of fear on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    Not to mention a Divine Ability expert who hadn¡¯t comprehended a divine ability, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t even afraid of a Divine Ability expert who had comprehended a divine ability.


    These consecutive passive buffs caused Zhou Feng¡¯s strength to swell to a terrifying level.


    In addition, he had broken through eight minor realms consecutively.


    His cultivation had reached the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    More than half of his bloodline had been replaced with Human Emperor Blood.


    Even Zhou Feng himself didn¡¯t know how strong he was now.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Ju Lin was already in a bad mood, and seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s expressionless face made him even more displeased.


    Both sides attacked immediately.


    Ju Lin let out a whale¡¯s roar, like a ferocious beast under the deep sea, stretching for hundreds of miles.


    Black and red Blood Qi spewed out, and at this moment, Ju Lin was like a super large furnace.


    It roasted the ten directions, and its powerful aura made many aquatic creatures tremble.


    The Blood Qi of the Megakiller Whale Tribe was otherworldly, and its main body was a huge creature.


    Ju Lin had just broken through to the Daemon King rank, and his aura alone was enough to intimidate countless aquatic creatures present.


    ¡°So powerful! As expected of the Megakiller Whale Tribe! Arrogance has its own assets!¡±


    ¡°It seems that this little Angelfish was destined to be defeated and sink into the sand as soon as it showed its talent!¡±


    ¡°What a pity¡­¡±


    Facing this terrifying aura, Zhou Feng did not go head-to-head like before.


    His Blood Qi was tightly restrained in his physical body.


    Boom!


    The two directly used their physical bodies to fight.


    In the eyes of others, Ju Lin¡¯s punch seemed to bring with it thousands of waves, a huge wave pouncing toward Zhou Feng.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng simply blocked


    Unremarkable, even a little weak.


    Being crushed seemed to be a foregone conclusion.


    But then, the eyes of all the aquatic creatures almost popped out.


    Zhou Feng not only blocked Ju Lin¡¯s punch, but he also followed with another punch.


    This one punch did not look special, but the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was crazily gathering toward the golden drop of Human Emperor Bloo.


    an


    Boom!


    Ju Lin also blocked it immediately.


    However, the surging power caused the surrounding seawater to split apart.


    One of his hands was broken in an instant, and bright red blood dyed the surrounding seawater.


    Zhou Feng just stood there quietly, like an unmovable mountain.


    Although there was no surging Blood Qi or any cool special effects, at this moment, it was as if the sun had risen in the morning, shining brilliantly. The light that shone out made people unable to look at it directly.


    Under normal circumstances, no matter if it was a cultivator or a member of another race, their bodies¡¯ control would drop a lot after jumping so many realms consecutively.


    However, Zhou Feng was able to control his power perfectly.


    This was due to his powerful soul.


    Although the passive Soul Harvesting had not been mentioned in the story for some time, it didn¡¯t mean that this passive skill was gone. Instead, it was triggered every time Zhou Feng killed an entity.


    He continued to collect soul power, strengthening his soul.


    If this kind of strengthening of the soul didn¡¯t reach the level where a quantitative change would cause a qualitative change, it would be almost impossible to feel the difference on a normal day.


    However, just now, Zhou Feng could be considered to have experienced what it was like to have a sufficiently strong soul.


    Especially when he leaped through the Dragon Gate, it made his soul undergo another transformation.


    ¡°I¡ª¡±


    Ju Lin looked at his empty right hand and didn¡¯t have time to say anything.


    His vision went black.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t stop at all. He tried his best to control the power in his body and threw a punch. The surrounding seawater was separated again, and Ju Lin was smashed into pieces.


    This was the bonus of the Interacial Killer!


    Such an explosive punch, combined with the effect of countless passive buffs, unexpectedly killed Ju Lin on the spot.


    Just a second ago, Ju Lin had still been looked at Zhou Feng with disdain

 Chapter 295 - Luck

    Chapter 295 Luck


    The passive Interacial Killer increased Zhou Feng¡¯s damage by 20%.


    This sort of percentage boost was spooking.


    This kind of boost was the most unreasonable and powerful, increasing Zhou Feng¡¯s strength to unprecedented levels.


    Then there were his other passive buffs that worked perfectly with the passive Interacial Killer.


    As such, these buffs instantly turned into countless straws, crushing Ju Lin¡¯s back to death.


    ¡°The Blood Qi has been recovered¡­¡¯


    After Zhou Feng¡¯s punch connected, he immediately felt a large amount of Blood Qi being recovered.


    Compared to before, he didn¡¯t expend much.


    At the same time, he found that his control over his strength had also become much stronger.


    Previously, his attacks seemed mountain-crushing and earth-shattering, but in reality, he wasted a lot of strength.


    Especially for Zhou Feng, who relied on his physical strength to fight, that was a reflection of his incomplete control over his physical body.


    A true expert should not waste the slightest iota of power, and an ordinary punch could be fatal.


    Just like just now, Zhou Feng had suppressed the explosive aura in his body. Then, he used the simplest method to smash Ju Lin on the spot.


    Ju Lin¡¯s scarlet blood spread in the vicinity.


    This was the blood of a Megakiller Whale King


    Although Ju Lin had just broken through to the Daemon King rank, he didn¡¯t even have the time to comprehend a divine ability.


    e


    But his body had already undergone a preliminary baptism, and this blood had already begun to have a mystical effect.


    Some of the weaker aquatic creatures began to riot.


    Swallowing the blood of a Daemon King was the best time to change their bloodline.


    ¡°Quickly!¡±


    ¡°Hurry Up! There are still some remains!¡±


    ¡°Everyone, attack together. This way, we won¡¯t have to worry about being blamed!¡±


    IIII


    This was because the water prison that Ao Lie had set up was only to prevent the aftermath of the battle from spreading.


    It had no isolation effect on other things.


    Thus, many aquatic creatures wanted to fish in troubled waters.


    Even some of Daemon Generals were no exception.


    After all, to these aquatic creatures, the ability to change one¡¯s bloodline was something that was carved into their genes.


    They couldn¡¯t let it go as long as there was even the slightest chance.


    Some of the aquatic creatures with ordinary bloodlines would devour some of the aquatic creatures with powerful bloodlines.


    Then, they would gradually become a new race. This was very normal.


    Ao Lie had just been an ordinary snake in the past, and he had the body of a Flood Dragon


    now!


    ¡°He died!?¡±


    ¡°He only used one punch? I don¡¯t believe it!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s a newly promoted Megakiller Whale King!¡±


    ¡°That punch¡­¡±


    Naturally, many people found this outcome hard of believing.


    The battle between the two sides had just begun, so how did it end?


    Also, why was Zhou Feng¡¯s punch so terrifying that it didn¡¯t even give people a chance to react?


    One had to know that Ju Lin had a one-time attack of an elder and all kinds of life-saving spiritual artifacts on his body, but none of them had been triggered.


    Ju Lin had died instantly. The sudden death left no room for anyone to react.


    Even Ao Lie had not had the time to stop it. The main reason was that none of them could imagine that Zhou Feng could kill Ju Lin.


    Therefore, they were not prepared. By the time they reacted, it was already too late.


    ¡°Collection successful!¡±


    At that moment, a line of words jumped across the skill panel.


    The passive Soul Harvesting was triggered once again. Zhou Feng could now clearly feel that his soul, which was sitting upright on the Soul Altar, had slightly strengthened.


    At the same time, his control over his body also strengthened slightly.


    ¡°This feeling¡­ Is it the dragon scale!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng slowly felt that his surroundings were quieting down.


    Countless mysteries seemed to appear in his eyes. At the same time, he was enveloped by a mysterious aura.


    This feeling was like the state of enlightenment that he had once entered.


    When he had entered the state of enlightenment, Zhou Feng had comprehended the three punches.


    That was a heaven-bestowed battle art. At that time, Zhou Feng thought that it was a state that he would never experience in his life again.


    Unexpectedly, it appeared once again.


    And what caused Zhou Feng to enter this state was the true dragon scale that Ao Shan had just given him.


    The golden dragon scale started to crack and turn into a seven-colored mystic light that enveloped Zhou Feng.


    ¡®I think I still have the Xuanwu scale!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng took the Xuanwu scale out of his storage ring.


    ¡°This is a Xuanwu scale!?¡±


    ¡°What kind of fortuitous encounter did this kid have?¡±


    ¡°How could the true dragon¡¯s scale help this kid enter the state of enlightenment!?¡±


    When Zhou Feng took out the Xuanwu scale, it also turned into black and white streams of energy that enveloped his surroundings.


    Everyone immediately felt the aura that belonged solely to the Black Tortoise.


    At that moment, everyone¡¯s faces were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.


    Just what kind of virtue did this kid have to be able to obtain the help of both the true dragon¡¯s power and the Black Tortoise¡¯s power at the same time!?


    It allowed him to enter the state of enlightenment. Why was this so!?


    It was clearly the bloodline of the most ordinary Agnelish. How could it have such heaven-defying luck?


    In a dimension that no one could see, there was a golden dragon that did not have a body but only a head.


    At that moment, it was enveloping Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    That was the remaining Human Emperor¡¯s luck.


    The first Human Emperor had used a supreme technique that suppressed the land of heritage in order to protect the future Human Emperors¡¯ destiny.


    This supreme technique was indeed powerful, even though the first Human Emperor had disappeared a long time ago.


    The destiny of this lineage had actually been suppressed and never dissipated.


    Not long ago, a few aquatic creatures had entered the mystic realm and accidentally broke the suppression technique.


    Therefore, this destiny began to leak out rapidly.


    In addition, there were aquatic creatures all around, and not a single human was present.


    This destiny was not willing to bestow these aquatic creatures, so they had almost completely dissipated.


    It was not until Zhou Feng¡¯s arrival that the dissipating Human Emperor¡¯s destiny gathered crazily on his body.


    All these things made Zhou Feng feel as if he had the help of God and had a series of fortuitous encounters.


    But don¡¯t think that this was a good thing.


    Cause and effect-everything has a cause and effect!


    Zhou Feng had unintentionally inherited the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny, representing the cause and effect of the Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline.


    The Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline had disappeared for so many years, and there were signs of recovery every few decades.


    However, there was still no successful recovery, which meant that many people did not want the Human Emperor¡¯s bloodline to resurface again.


    ¡°Ao Yan! You go!¡±


    Ao Lie¡¯s face darkened when he saw the true dragon scale on Zhou Feng¡¯s hand shatter.


    He immediately sent his son to fight with Zhou Feng. ¡°Ah?¡±


    Ao Yan thought he had misheard for a while.


    One had to know that he had broken through to the Daemon King rank a long time ago. He had even comprehended a divine ability.


    Moreover, he had cultivated this divine ability to the initial success level.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    Ao Lie¡¯s face was dark, and he only gave Ao Yan a simple glance.


    Ao Yan was immediately frightened to the point that he did not dare to speak.


    There was no other way¡­ Ao Yan could only prepare to spar with Zhou Feng.


    Although this was akin to bullying Zhou Feng with his Daemon King cultivation, it came from his father¡¯s pressure.


    Ao Yan did not dare to say anything.

 Chapter 296 - Blood Qi Suppressed in the Body

    Chapter 296 Blood Qi Suppressed in the Body


    What troubled Ao Yan the most was that Zhou Feng was clearly in a state of enlightenment.


    Wouldn¡¯t he be cutting off Zhou Feng¡¯s opportunity if he went up like this?


    Moreover, judging from Zhou Feng¡¯s current performance, he would definitely become his younger sister¡¯s husband in the future.


    In other words, Zhou Feng was one of his own.


    Ao Yan going up like this to be the villain was making things difficult for him.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry!¡±


    Ao Yan first reminded Zhou Feng when he saw the dazed look in his eyes.


    Then, under Ao Lie¡¯s gaze, his face immediately became serious.


    The aura that belonged solely to the Divine Ability realm suddenly rose.


    In an instant, the surrounding seawater slowly froze.


    ¡°Is the old Dragon Sovereign angry? Is it because of the true dragon scale?¡±


    ¡°I think so. After all, the old Dragon Sovereign can¡¯t forget the Fifth Princess¡¯ mother!¡±


    CSS


    ¡°Although it seems that the old Dragon Sovereign has made an effort now, I¡¯m afraid that this little fish has officially caught the Dragon Sovereign¡¯s eye!¡±


    ¡°He will definitely be a member of the Dragon Palace in the future!¡±


    Although Ao Lie looked very angry in the eyes of many aquatic creatures, this was only on the surface. Given the talent and luck that Zhou Feng had displayed, he would be able to occupy a place in the Southern Sea in the future.


    Zhou Feng was definitely qualified to become Ao Shan¡¯s husband.


    This was just a show of strength from his father-in-law to his son-in-law.


    It had to be said that Zhou Feng¡¯s luck was indeed a little heaven-defying in the eyes of many aquatic creatures. This was the first time he had participated in the Dragon Gate Festival, and his cultivation had jumped continuously. From the initial Daemon General rank to the peak of the Daemon General rank, such a leap in level could be said to be terrifying.


    It was one thing for his realm to rise so quickly, but Zhou Feng¡¯s most exaggerated aspect was that his strength was also mind-blowing.


    His aura was neither deep nor shallow, and he had smashed Ju Lin with a single punch, his face expressionless.


    Later on, he even received the help of the power of the true dragon and the Black Tortoise and entered a state of sudden enlightenment.


    Comprehending a divine ability was simply a piece of cake!


    In other words, it was only a matter of time before he entered the Divine Ability realm.


    When all these things were added together, his luck was comparable to that of a Carp.


    Carp! It was an unusual creature among the aquatic tribes.


    It was difficult to transform naturally, and at the same time, it was extremely difficult to cultivate.


    However, it was an unusual creature that all the aquatic creatures hoped to meet.


    As long as the Carp was willing to stay by one¡¯s side for a short while, all the aquatic creatures were willing to pay any price to exchange for this short while.


    This was because the Carp was a tribe blessed by the heavens. No matter what they encountered, they would be able to turn misfortune into luck.


    However, it was a pity that the Carp Tribe had not appeared in the Southern Sea for 1,00 years.


    Even a thousand years ago, someone had met them by chance.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Ao Yan did not seem to hold back at all. An endless chill sealed off the entire water prison, and thousands upon thousands of icicles like giant pillars that supported the sky appeared.


    That bleak and murderous aura silenced the water creatures discussed fervently.


    Zhou Feng, who was in a state of enlightenment, slightly twisted his body.


    His posture was extremely carefree as he dodged all the attacks by a hair¡¯s breadth.


    The passive Battle instinct became even more powerful when Zhou Feng was in a state of enlightenment.


    ¡®Lifespan¡­ Longevity¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was relying on this state of enlightenment to comprehend his own divine ability continuously.


    Generally speaking, the first divine ability comprehended at the Divine Ability realm was related to one¡¯s own innate divine ability.


    This was also the easiest divine ability to comprehend.


    It was also a natal divine ability. As long as one comprehended a natal divine ability, it meant that one had successfully entered the Divine Ability realm.


    As for cultivating other divine abilities, it was not as easy as comprehending a natal divine ability.


    Therefore, for ordinary divine abilities, comprehending two or three divine abilities was already very impressive.


    The divine ability Zhou Feng was currently comprehending was called Immortality.


    This was a branch of the great Dao of Life.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s innate divine ability was Longevity, and his wish was immortality.


    As for the other things, they were only incidental.


    Regarding the general goal of immortality, Zhou Feng had never forgotten it.


    However, the difficulty of this divine ability could be said to be the hardest part.


    Even in the state of enlightenment, Zhou Feng could only comprehend a small part of


    ¡°Ten Thousand Miles of Ice!¡±


    On the other side, Ao Yan even used his natal divine ability. That was because all of his attacks just now were unable to cause any damage to Zhou Feng


    He was still in a state of enlightenment, but he was able to dodge countless attacks accurately.


    Even if it were a concentrated group attack, Zhou Feng would rely on his terrifying physical body to withstand it.


    ¡°Too strong! Why!? Why is he so strong even though he looks ordinary!¡±


    ¡°Could it be an ancient bloodline?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! An ordinary Angelfish bloodline can¡¯t be like this!¡±


    11


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance once again shocked everyone.


    This was because this was too strange. He clearly didn¡¯t seem like much, but he was able to withstand Ao Yan¡¯s frenzied attacks.


    Zhou Feng, who was in a state of enlightenment, was probably unaware of of how hard Ao Yan worked to defeat him.


    Originally, Ao Yan still had his dignity and disdained using the power of the Daemon King rank.


    In his opinion, he only needed to use the power of the Daemon General rank to deal with Zhou Feng


    After a Divine Ability expert comprehended their divine ability, it also meant that the cultivator had a deeper understanding of the principles of heaven and earth.


    Even if they used the same power, it would have two completely different effects at different realms.


    But the truth was that Ao Yan couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng was even in a state of enlightenment.


    This scene caused many of the surrounding aquatic creatures¡¯ eyes to shine with a strange light.


    Ao Yan only felt a piercing light on his back, as if countless people were looking at him with that strange light.


    That kind of sour feeling curbed Ao Yan¡¯s arrogance.


    Divine Ability realm! One had to use their nascent soul to communicate with the Great Dao in this realm!


    The power of that kind of nascent soul to comprehend with the Great Dao was terrifyingly great.


    As long as one comprehended enough laws of the Great Dao, then the power of one¡¯s divine power could increase infinitely.


    Kacha!


    The entire sea was immediately frozen into extremely cold mystic ice. The coldness it revealed made the spectating aquatic creatures swim a few miles back.


    Zhou Feng also had no way to dodge because Ao Yan had frozen a vast area.


    ¡°Damn it! Fourth Brother! He actually dared to make such a vicious move!¡±


    Ao Shan, who had been watching the battle from the side, frowned. She looked extremely displeased.


    Silence!


    At that moment, the scene was extremely quiet. Almost no aquatic creature dared to make a single sound.


    Dong!


    Just when Ao Yan thought that he had finally completed his mission, the beating of Zhou Feng¡¯s heart that sounded like a huge drum rang out.


    Boom!


    The Indestructible mystic ice cracked with a sound!


    Zhou Feng immediately woke up from his state of enlightenment.


    His face did not seem to have changed much, and his eyes did not show any emotions.


    His aura disappeared instantly, and an endless amount of Blood Qi was suppressed in his body, not a single bit leaking out.


    ¡°Was that a divine ability just now?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm voice sounded in the silent environment.


    Although there was not the slightest fluctuation in his words, the group of aquatic creatures felt a trace of mockery in them.

 Chapter 297 - Longevity Breathing Technique

    Chapter 297 Longevity Breathing Technique


    Why!


    Zhou Feng was actually able to directly rely on his physical body to break through a divine ability!?


    ¡°Is he still at the Daemon General rank? This is definitely a hidden bloodline!¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t leaking any aura, the surrounding aquatic creatures were once again stunned.


    Ao Yan had just used a divine ability, which had the embryonic form of the Great Dao¡¯s laws.


    If one wanted to break it, they would have to use the same amount of strength. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult.


    The path of cultivation was always getting stronger and stronger.


    It was practically a thrashing when a high-realm expert fought against a low-realm expert.


    Every time one reached a great realm, they would basically have a new understanding of the laws of heaven and earth.


    However, Zhou Feng had broken this unspoken rule by directly breaking Ao Yan¡¯s divine ability.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had not leaked out from the very beginning.


    His aura had become faintly discernible. If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that he was still there, everyone would have thought that Zhou Feng was a rock.


    And this was the ability that Zhou Feng had just comprehended in his enlightenment state.


    His innate divine ability was Longevity. He was born with a longer life than ordinary people.


    In addition to his strong desire, he kept thinking about extending his life in the state of enlightenment.


    ¡®The Xuanwu scale is a great help!¡¯


    Coincidentally, the Dao of Life was what the Black Tortoise was best at.


    No one knew how many generations had passed since the beginning of heaven and earth, whether it was the White Tiger, the Azure Dragon, or the Vermillion Bird.


    However, the Black Tortoise was the only one that had been alive since the beginning of the world.


    It had yet to die, exceeding the normal range.


    The Xuanwu scale also contained a trace of the Longevity Law, and Zhou Feng coincidentally sensed it.


    Under normal circumstances, it would be a joke if he wanted to comprehend the Dao of Longevity with his current cultivation.


    However, the situation would be different with the help of the Xuanwu scale.


    Zhou Feng used the Aquamarine Breathing Technique as the blueprint and created a very simple technique. This technique did not have any terrifying aspects, but it could hide essence within the body. It could prevent the Blood Qi in the five viscera from leaking out.


    The Blood Qi in the five viscera not leaking out was a prerequisite for longevity.


    Zhou Feng named this technique Longevity Breathing Technique. During battle, it could restrain all the vital essence and Blood Qi to avoid unnecessary loss.


    When not in battle, it could also hide itself so that it would be difficult to be discovered.


    Such a technique could be considered as Zhou Feng¡¯s own creation.


    Unfortunately, this Longevity Breathing Technique was only an incomplete version and was not perfect at all.


    Only the creator could cultivate it and no other cultivator.


    There was no other way! The duration of the enlightenment state was not enough.


    If not for the enlightenment State, Zhou Feng would not have been able to create this technique.


    The most amazing aspect was that this breathing technique could even work together with the passive Blood Qi Recovery.


    This made Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi have almost no chance of leaking out.


    ¡°You¡­ How did you do it!¡±


    Ao Yan looked at the harmless Zhou Feng and frowned.


    He could not figure out how Zhou Feng had accomplished this.


    ¡®What a special technique! It can actually lock all the Blood Qi!¡¯


    Only Ao Lie could see some of the tricks among all the aquatic creatures present.


    Ao Lie could clearly feel that Zhou Feng¡¯s body had almost reached a flawless state. There was almost no essence energy leaking out.


    Even a Divine Ability expert could not do it. Only when a Divine Ability expert advanced to the Dragon Transformation realm could they reach the leakless realm.


    This was because the Divine Ability realm was the understanding of the laws of the Great Dao through the nascent soul.


    It also meant that the nascent soul was strengthened step by step to the limit.


    When the nascent soul was strengthened to the limit, the cultivator would then strengthen the physical body.


    The nascent soul and the physical body were both very important as they were the key factors for immortality.


    As long as one was missing, the path of cultivation would become more and more difficult.


    The Dragon Transformation realm focused on strengthening the physical body. The entire process was like a carp turning into a dragon.


    The transformation step by step was called the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Ao Lie was currently at this stage. His body was in the transformation stage.


    As long as he stepped into the Dragon Transformation realm, he would be able to truly shed the body of a Flood Dragon and turn into a true dragon.


    Such talent! No wonder this little fish could cultivate to such a realm! It only relied on such an ordinary bloodline!


    ¡®That kind of technique should be a technique that belongs to him alone! It¡¯s simply comparable to a human¡¯s heaven¡¯s chosen monster!


    The anger in Ao Lie¡¯s heart had already subsided.


    It was definitely a blessing for the Dragon Palace to have such a prodigy.


    ¡°Enough! There¡¯s no need to continue the battle! Other than those at the Daemon King rank, no one can do anything to you!


    ¡°You don¡¯t need to continue this battle! As for the reward, it won¡¯t be lacking for you!¡±


    Ao Lie only thought for a moment and did not let Zhou Feng continue the battle.


    This was because if they continued fighting like this, it was very likely that the other aquatic creatures would see through some things.


    This would not be beautiful!


    Ao Lie now wanted to ask in his heart how Zhou Feng managed to achieve a flawless body.


    If he could know exactly how he did it, perhaps there was hope for him to reach the Dragon Transformation realm.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°Old Dragon Sovereign!¡±


    ¡°Looks like the old Dragon Sovereign has already made up his mind!¡±


    After hearing Ao Lie¡¯s words, the other aquatic creatures finally understood.


    Obviously, the old Dragon Sovereign wanted to recruit Zhou Feng as the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace. He didn¡¯t even need to fight to get the reward.


    After all, there were quite a number of Daemon Kings present.


    None of them were valued so highly. On the contrary, it was a little Angelfish General who was valued so highly.


    Why!?


    Many of the aquatic creatures wanted to ask this, but they could not say it out loud.


    There was nothing they could do. Zhou Feng¡¯s performance just now was really stunning.


    Plus, Ao Lie¡¯s power was there, so the other aquatic creatures did not dare say it aloud.


    After all, the aquatic creatures paid attention to the law of the jungle.


    If you dared to compete a little more, Ao Lie would definitely do it himself.


    Even if one died, no one would be able to collect your corpse.


    ¡°We don¡¯t need to fight anymore?¡± Hearing this, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the intention to continue fighting.


    Because to him, entering the mystic realm was his first goal.


    Although he could use the state of enlightenment to comprehend the Longevity Breathing Technique, he still needed the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture if he wanted to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    After all, only the follow-up cultivation method of the Human Emperor Scripture recorded how to comprehend how to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    He could feel that Ao Lie was looking at him differently.


    Even when Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.


    It was no longer the high-to-low feeling of looking down on him like before.


    This was all brought about by his stunning performance just now.


    If Zhou Feng was willing, he might really be able to become the son-in-law.


    Marry the daughter of a true dragon, and then live a carefree life in the Southern Sea.


    As long as he was not discovered, Zhou Feng could even enjoy the resources of the Dragon Palace.


    But this was not what Zhou Feng thought. After all, he was a human.


    If he was discovered, the consequences would be extremely serious.


    For him, all he wanted was to get his hands on the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Then he would run away.

 Chapter 298 - The Fifth Princess Room

    Chapter 298 The Fifth Princess¡¯ Room


    Because of Ao Lie¡¯s experience, Zhou Feng was directly appointed as one of the sons-in-law of the Dragon Palace.


    Therefore, he did not need to continue fighting


    The rest of the aquatic creatures were fighting for the qualification to become the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace.


    They began to fight crazily. In the end, even some of the Daemon King-rank-level aquatic creatures joined the fight.


    Taking this opportunity, Zhou Feng could be considered to have seen a lot of things.


    Moreover, he also understood the specific division of the Divine Ability realm.


    The Divine Ability realm was not like the previous realms, which were divided into nine levels.


    Instead, it was divided according to the completeness of the divine ability that one had comprehended.


    There were only three stages in the Divine Ability realm: initial success, great success, and perfection.


    This represented the cultivation situation of a divine ability.


    However, the difference in strength between those in the perfection of the Divine Ability realm could be said to be terrifying.


    Even if they were in the same realm, it was very likely that one side would be crushed.


    This was because the difference in power between different divine abilities was great, even if they were the same divine ability.


    One¡¯s comprehension ability was different, so the difference in power was also great.


    The most exaggerated one was Ao Lie, a veteran Divine Ability realm-he cultivated at least five divine abilities.


    Furthermore, all of his divine abilities were perfect.


    He could also use his comprehension of divine abilities to come into contact with the laws of the Great Dao and temper himself.


    Therefore, in summary, the Divine Ability realm was probably the most chaotic realm among all the realms.


    ¡°Hey! How are you going to compensate me for my dragon scale!?¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s lifeless eyes, Ao Shan could not help but feel angry.


    What was wrong with this little fish? She was clearly standing at the side, so why didn¡¯t he even look at her.


    Also, if it weren¡¯t for the true dragon scale that she had given him, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have entered the state of enlightenment.


    To be honest, Ao Shan had already decided that Zhou Feng would be her husband.


    The ones she chose now were just spare tires.


    After all, Zhou Feng was one of the few people in Ao Shan¡¯s eyes that she didn¡¯t hate.


    In addition, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation wasn¡¯t bad, just enough to meet Ao Shan¡¯s standards.


    Ao Shan still wanted to understand her future husband.


    To be able to rely on such an ordinary bloodline to cultivate to such an extent, there must be a lot of stories behind it.


    ¡°The dragon scale is gone. How do you think I should make it up to you?¡±


    After Zhou Feng heard Ao Shan¡¯s voice, he came back to his senses.


    His tone was still indifferent. He could not get the dragon scale back.


    However, he could make up for it based on the situation, as long as it was not too excessive.


    He could make up for it. If it was too excessive, then forget it.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    Listening to Zhou Feng¡¯s half-dead voice, Ao Shan felt a little anxious for the first time.


    ¡®Shouldn¡¯t the ones who should be anxious usually be the others?


    ¡®Why am I the one being anxious now!?¡±


    Ao Shan calmed herself down and asked, ¡°Good! Tell me, why can you ensure that your aura doesn¡¯t leak out during battle?¡±


    It had to be said that Ao Shan had a good eye and noticed that something was wrong with Zhou Feng. Thus, she got to the point.


    ¡°That¡¯s because I¡¯ve cultivated a technique,¡± Zhou Feng answered truthfully.


    ¡°What technique?¡±


    ¡°A technique that I created myself. It can lock essence into the body.¡±


    ¡°Can you teach me?¡±


    ¡°Yes. But you can¡¯t learn it.¡±


    The conversation between the two was extremely short.


    It was basically a question-and-answer session, and the entire process was extremely boring


    ¡°You! Can you speak more energetically!?¡±


    Ao Shan really could not stand Zhou Feng¡¯s


    tone.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s response was also very quick.


    This was because this was Zhou Feng¡¯s speaking habit. He had been in a high-pressure environment in the past, so he had deliberately changed his habits.


    After disguising himself as an aquatic creature, he tried to change those habits from the Tri-Gu Sect, but to no avail. As such, he gave up and returned to his ways.


    He was straightforward and did not care about what others thought.


    He did things according to his will. Whenever something was not right, he would run away.


    These were all the characteristics of Zhou Feng. ¡°Damn it! Then let me ask you, what are you interested in?¡±


    This was the first time Ao Shan had met such a person who ignored her. As they chatted, she became anxious. ¡°Cultivation!¡±


    ¡°What about other than cultivation?¡±


    ¡°Fishing!¡±


    ¡°What? Fishing!?¡±


    IIII


    One asked one question, and the other answered.


    In the eyes of the other aquatic creatures, they looked like they were fooling around.


    They were simply like a couple.


    When had they ever seen the Fifth Princess like This? Usually, Ao Shan was arrogant, did not treat all the aquatic creatures well, and put on airs.


    Even Ao Shan¡¯s brothers were the same.


    But now, she was actually playing with Zhou Feng. This was simply unbelievable.


    Even Ao Shan herself could not understand why she was like this.


    This was probably because Ao shan usually had a sense of distance from everyone.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, did not. He just treated Ao Shan as a very ordinary friend.


    Ao Shan was very infatuated with the feeling of being an ordinary friend.


    Of course, all of this was in addition to Zhou Feng¡¯s earlier stunning performance and strength.


    As long as both sides were on the same level, Ao Shan would be willing to chat with Zhou Feng


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    ¡°A small fish actually got there first!¡±


    ¡°A bumpkin with no foundation! Damn it!¡±


    The interaction between Zhou Feng and Ao Shan naturally made the eyes of the rest of the aquatic creatures burn with anger. This was because, in the eyes of those respected aquatic creatures, Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline was too ordinary. Even if his performance just now was stunning enough, no aquatic creatures believed he could contend against a Daemon King.


    He was a mere Daemon General that could withstand a divine ability.


    This wasn¡¯t anything extraordinary. In a real battle, one¡¯s survival depended on the foundation of both sides.


    In the end, it was still because the bloodline that Zhou Feng displayed was too ordinary.


    Many aquatic creatures were not convinced. The pearl of the Southern Sea had been taken away by an unknown little fish?


    This feeling was like the campus belle being snatched away by an ordinary person from an unknown school.


    Although many aquatic creatures were about to eat people in their eyes, none of them dared to reveal the slightest bit of killing intent. They only stared at Zhou Feng.


    After all, Ao Lie was there. If any of the aquatic creatures dared to reveal the slightest bit of killing intent, then the one who would die was definitely not Zhou Feng.


    This was completely different from the human race.


    On the human race¡¯s side, some of the descendants of the large clans with strong backgrounds were full of threats.


    Even when facing some vagabond cultivators whose cultivation realms were higher than their own, they were also extremely arrogant.


    But on the side of the aquatic creatures, where Ao Lie was, everyone looked submissive.


    It was also because of this that Zhou Feng avoided a lot of trouble.


    From the beginning, he had not been troubled.


    ¡°You! Come with me! Don¡¯t you like to cultivate? There are many good things in my room!


    ¡°And some human treasures that were dug out of the mystic realm!


    ¡°You won¡¯t refuse this, right?¡±


    As they chatted, Ao Shan couldn¡¯t help but clench her fists.


    Then, she planned to trick Zhou Feng into her room.


    ¡®Human treasures!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care much at first, but his eyes lit up when he heard the words ¡°human treasures¡±.

 Chapter 299 - 200-Year-Old Loli of the Dragon Clan

    Chapter 299 200-Year-Old Loli of the Dragon Clan


    Zhou Feng might not care about other things.


    But if it was a human treasure dug out from the so-called mystic realm, he would have to pay attention to it. There was a high possibility it may be the follow-up cultivation methods of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Previously, Zhou Feng did not feel that it was that urgent.


    After all, there was still quite a distance to the Divine Ability realm.


    However, with the aid of this opportunity to leap through the Dragon Gate, he instantly jumped to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    Then, the question of how to break through to the Divine Ability realm was directly placed in front of him.


    Thus, it was understandable that he was a little anxious.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately agreed.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    When Ao Shan saw that he agreed, she immediately led the way. She had already hatched a plan in her heart.


    She had to teach Zhou Feng a good lesson in her room.


    After all, Ao Shan still had some dignity in front of everyone.


    But if it was in her own room, she wouldn¡¯t have so many scruples when fighting.


    After saying that, the two left midway through the competition.


    ¡°This, this, this¡­ Look!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? where is the Fifth Princess taking that little fish?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s over! The Fifth Princess seems to be possessed!¡±


    Ao Shan and Zhou Feng¡¯s actions naturally attracted the attention of many aquatic creatures, and many of them thought that Ao Shan was possessed.


    Why was she acting so familiar with Zhou Feng? It looked as if they were traveling together.


    The sound of heartbreak echoed in the surroundings again.


    Almost no aquatic creature expected that the Fifth Princess, the only true dragon in the Dragon Palace, would be taken away.


    She was taken away by a sea fish with a very ordinary bloodline today.


    There were so many proud sons of the sea in the entire Southern Sea, but they did not have a chance to show off.


    Ao Shan was already taken! This was really heartbreaking.


    Even Ao Lie did not expect his precious daughter¡¯s personality to change suddenly.


    What was going on?


    Unfortunately, Ao Lie was still in charge of the overall situation. He could not leave as easily as Ao Shan.


    Therefore, even if Ao Lie wanted to ask what was going on, he could only save his questions for later.


    ¡°There¡¯s a change in plan!¡±


    ¡°Carry out the backup plan!¡±


    A few aquatic creatures exchanged glances in a corner where no one was paying attention.


    They were ready to activate their backup plan. Obviously, Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden appearance had disrupted some of their plans.


    Since normal plans could not be used, they could only use the backup plan.


    The Dragon Palace did not really have the final say in the vast Southern Sea.


    Some of the ancient aquatic tribes were not weak at all.


    In fact, the Dragon Palace¡¯s rule was not stable.


    If Ao Shan had not appeared, many forces would have had the chance to fight for the position of the Dragon Sovereign.


    Most importantly, Ao Lie was already old.


    Even compared to humans, the aquatic creatures¡¯ lifespan was very long.


    Nonetheless, there was still a limit. Once Ao Lie died, no one in the entire Dragon Palace could subdue those old monsters.


    However, Ao Shan was born with the bloodline of a true dragon. She had the right to command all the aquatic tribes in name.


    Once Ao Shan grew up, the so-called Dragon Palace would become real.


    At that time, those forces that did not obey the rules would not be able to resist this trend. After all, the bloodline of a true dragon was a natural leadership position for the aquatic tribes.


    Originally, those big tribes wanted to let their tribesmen fight to become the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace.


    In this way, they could be considered to have a relationship with the true dragon¡¯s bloodline.


    For this, they had prepared a lot, but all of their plans were destroyed by Zhou Feng.


    Hence, they could only use their backup plans now.


    An undercurrent was quietly surging, and even Ao Lie didn¡¯t notice it.


    In Ao Lie¡¯s opinion, no one would dare to lay a hand on his precious daughter as long as he was not dead.


    On the other side, Ao Shan led Zhou Feng.


    It was also the first time that he entered the Dragon Palace¡¯s inner part.


    Before this, he could only wander around the outer area.


    The interior of the Dragon Palace was very elegant. It was decorated with exquisite potted plants and was eye-catching in red and purple.


    There was also a colorful and luxurious aura of jewelry.


    Such an arrangement was very in line with Zhou Feng¡¯s imagination of the Dragon Palace.


    The resources of the entire Southern Sea were almost at the disposal of the Dragon Palace, so it was inevitable for them to be generous.


    Soon, Zhou Feng arrived at Ao Shan¡¯s room.


    Ao Shan had informed the servants in advance, so there was no servant in the room.


    ¡®What a big bed!¡¯


    It was different from a human woman¡¯s room.


    Ao Shan¡¯s room looked very spacious with a few decorations, and there was a huge bed in the middle.


    Besides that, he could also feel a powerful formation power. Eye of treasure appraisal! Open!


    (Dragon Breath Wood: A special piece of wood that has been infused with true Dragon Qi. It is impervious to fire and water and is indestructible. It is an extremely rare material for refining artifacts.]


    Zhou Feng immediately activated the Appraising Eye.


    ¡®Dragon Breath Wood? This entire pillar is made of Dragon Breath Wood!?¡¯


    He once again experienced the extravagant spirit of the Dragon Palace.


    ¡°Heehee! This time, this princess can finally let loose! No one will disturb us here!¡±


    Ao Shan immediately used her authority to activate the formation around her.


    In an instant, the room became a huge cage.


    ¡°You mean? Where are the human treasures?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned when he felt the power of the formation around him, but he quickly calmed down.


    From his perception, Ao Shan did not have any killing intent. She was probably planning to play with him.


    That was why Zhou Feng did not attack immediately to suppress Ao Shan.


    Instead, he used a very calm tone to ask Ao Shan what she meant.


    ¡°Huh? You¡¯re really stupid. You don¡¯t even know what¡¯s going on in such a situation?¡±


    At that moment, Ao Shan was like a child who had a temper tantrum.


    A proud smile appeared on her face, and she wanted to see how Zhou Feng would react.


    In fact, Ao Shan was like a little loli.


    A true dragon¡¯s lifespan was very long.


    Ao Shan was 200 years old, but she had just passed the infancy stage.


    It was a playful stage in itself.


    Previously, because she did not have a suitable playmate, Ao Shan had not been able to flare up.


    Now that she had finally met Zhou Feng-his strength was not bad, and he would not be overly respectful to her¡ªAo Shan¡¯s playfulness came to the fore.


    Moreover, in order not to destroy the image of the arrogant princess in the hearts of the aquatic creatures, Ao Shan even deliberately deceived Zhou Feng into her room.


    Zhou Feng did not answer and only looked at Ao Shan quietly.


    ¡°Why are you looking at me like that? Don¡¯t tell me you want to make a move! Come on!¡±


    Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng, who did not say a word, and her face became even more excited.


    That was because Zhou Feng looked like he wanted to fight.


    On the other hand, Ao Shan was very well protected and had almost no chance to fight.


    As such, she had wanted to have a good fight a long time ago.


    Unfortunately, no aquatic creature dared to do anything serious because of her true dragon bloodline.

 Chapter 300 - Taking a Beating

    Chapter 300 Taking a Beating


    ¡°Come on! Come on!¡±


    Ao Shan looked at Zhou Feng excitedly and then kept urging him to make a move.


    ¡°If I beat you down, will you show me your treasures?¡±


    Zhou Feng wanted confirmation before making a move.


    His goal was clear from the beginning to the end¡ªthe Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s follow-up cultivation method.


    Zhou Feng would not do anything that would waste his energy.


    Ao Shan nodded. ¡°That¡¯s right! If you beat me into submission, I¡¯ll show you all my treasures!¡±


    She could finally have a good fight!


    Moreover, she could teach this fellow a good lesson and let him understand his status.


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes.


    He didn¡¯t say anything. As soon as Ao Shan finished her sentence, he immediately made his move.


    Zhou Feng restrained all of his Blood Qi with the special function of the Longevity Breathing Technique and threw an ordinary-looking punch. It did not even make the slightest ripple.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Ao Shan didn¡¯t expect that Zhou Feng would dare to sneak attack her.


    She had just finished speaking when Zhou Feng immediately made his move. Wasn¡¯t this a sneak attack?


    It had to be said that Ao Shan was still too inexperienced in battle.


    When fighting with others, one didn¡¯t have much time to prepare.


    Not to mention, Zhou Feng¡¯s favorite activity was making a direct move.


    Every time he saw his opponent ramble on and on, he couldn¡¯t help but want to make a move.


    What was the point of saying so much?


    If he could make a move, he definitely wouldn¡¯t dilly-dally. This was the best choice.


    Boom!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s plain punch landed on Ao Shan¡¯s face without any mercy.


    Ao Shan was sent flying, and a trace of golden dragon blood rolled down her nostril.


    Then, she crashed into the door of the room.


    Along the way, she smashed a screen.


    However, there was no problem with the door of the room.


    After all, a formation was protecting it, and the door¡¯s material was not ordinary.


    ¡°You sneak attacked!¡±


    After a simple spell of dizziness, Ao Shan covered her nose with her left hand.


    Zhou Feng did not show any mercy with that punch.


    A normal person would have been blown up by that full-strength punch long ago.


    However, Ao Shan only had a mere nosebleed, which did not seem to be a big deal.


    Indeed, the body of a true dragon was far stronger than that of a human.


    Zhou Feng did not underestimate Ao Shan just because of her appearance.


    Ao Shan was a true dragon, and her true form was not the beauty in front of him.


    ¡°Hm?¡±


    Zhou Feng wanted to follow up with his attacks because now was a good opportunity to do so.


    He would have a huge advantage before Ao Shan could react.


    However, Ao Shan¡¯s appearance seemed to have changed.


    She now looked more like a child, with a slightly straight nose, white jade-like skin, and that round baby fat.


    She was like a young loli who had not yet shed her childishness.


    She was completely different from the arrogant Fifth Princess from earlier.


    This is Ao Shan¡¯s original appearance? Was her earlier appearance an illusion?¡¯


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    At that moment, Ao Shan realized that Zhou Feng was looking at her strangely.


    Only then did she realize that her illusion had lost its effect. Her original appearance had already been exposed.


    As mentioned earlier, Ao Shan was still in her infancy. Although she was 200 years old, she was just a little rugrat that had yet to reach adulthood from the perspective of a true dragon.


    And what Ao Shan disliked the most was being seen as a child.


    In addition, because she was about to find a husband, she had assumed her adulthood appearance.


    Ao Lie even helped her create the illusion to hide her true appearance.


    This illusion would last almost forever as long as she did not suffer a huge blow.


    ¡°Don¡¯t look!¡±


    Ao Shan¡¯s golden dragon aura surged out, and her white and tender little hand instantly tore apart the fabric of space.


    She also threw a punch!


    Ao Shan¡¯s punch could be said to be earth-shattering.


    Compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s ordinary punch, the contrast was very obvious. Zhou Feng wanted to test Ao Shan¡¯s physical body and see if his physical body could fight against a true dragon.


    Therefore, he met it head-on.


    Boom!


    There was another loud sound, and the violent water currents blew all the decorations in the room into a mess.


    The power that erupted from that small and delicate hand was far beyond Zhou Feng¡¯s imagination.


    What was a loli with great strength!?


    The one in front of him was a loli with great strength!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand made a cracking sound due to her terrifying strength.


    So strong!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes turned cold.


    Ao Shan heard the fracturing sound.


    She smiled smugly and wanted to mock him, but she swallowed what she wanted to say in the next second.


    Zhou Feng threw another punch, his face not betraying the slightest hint of anger.


    This punch didn¡¯t make a ripple in the water at all. It was like a silent dog, ready to pounce on you and bite you at any time.


    Ao Shan immediately blocked it and then retaliated without hesitation.


    An ear-piercing sonic boom echoed again.


    The two sides did not use any other power to fight at all, just their pure physical bodies.


    Ao Shan naturally did not need to say much, her main body was that of a young true dragon.


    Even if she had not cultivated, she only relied on the growth of her age.


    Her physical body was astonishingly strong, and it could adapt to Zhou Feng¡¯s attack rhythm.


    She was completely suppressing Zhou Feng with the superiority of her bloodline.


    There was no other way! Compared to a true dragon¡¯s physical body, the difference was too great.


    Even though Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was abnormal because he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, it started to crack after just a short while.


    The sound of bones breaking echoed non-stop. Sometimes, Ao Shan even wanted to hold back.


    However, the more Zhou Feng fought, the crazier he became. The injuries on his body were also recovering crazily.


    If Ao Shan observed carefully enough, she would even realize that there was not a single drop of Zhou Feng¡¯s blood in the surroundings.


    Only Ao Shan¡¯s few drops of dragon blood were left.


    This was the effect of the Longevity Breathing Technique, followed by Zhou Feng¡¯s various passives.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Fighting Spirit and Adaptive Shell were at full power.


    Ao Shan, who originally had the advantage, gradually felt that she could not suppress Zhou Feng


    ¡°Impossible!¡±


    Ao Shan felt that she was about to be suppressed, and a look of disbelief appeared on her face.


    She had the blood of a true dragon in her body, and each of her punches carried the strength of a dragon.


    How could this little fish beat her in terms of physical strength!?


    This was not logical! If Zhou Feng had used other methods to defeat Ao Shan¡­


    Ao Shan might not have been that surprised, but being suppressed by Zhou Feng in terms of physical strength was something Ao Shan could not accept.


    While Ao Shan was still in shock, Zhou Feng seized the opportunity.


    Another punch landed on Ao Shan¡¯s face.


    That¡¯s right! It was her face again!


    Her delicate face had turned green and purple from Zhou Feng¡¯s consecutive punches.


    ¡°Damn it! Why do you keep hitting my face!?¡±


    Ao Shan was furious!


    Zhou Feng had been hitting her face since the beginning. It was simply unreasonable.


    In the next instant, faint dragon scales appeared on Ao Shan¡¯s body while her pitch-black and round pupils turned into golden vertical pupils.


    Then, the violent aura of a true dragon started to spread in all directions.


    Soon, the originally intact room had become a mess!

 Chapter 301 - Demolition!

    Chapter 301 Demolition!


    The strength of aquatic creatures and demonic beasts was different when they were in different forms.


    Some could only restrict their strength when they transformed because their main body was strong enough.


    Some of the aquatic creatures were not particularly strong when they transformed into humans.


    Some others received boosts in strength because it was easier for them to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth when they were in human form.


    Ao Shan was the type that had an abnormally strong body.


    With the true dragon bloodline in her body, she only needed to turn her body into half of a dragon to gain several times more strength instantly.


    Ao Shan was now angry.


    Zhou Feng had entered battle mode, so he didn¡¯t hold back at all. Every attack was aimed at her face.


    As the saying went, ¡°Don¡¯t hit people in the


    face.¡±


    No one would be able to suppress their anger from such actions.


    Not to mention a little girl like Ao Shan, who had thin skin.


    ¡°Again!¡±


    Ao Shan did not believe that she was no match for Zhou Feng in terms of physical strength.


    She had the blood of a true dragon flowing in her body!


    Her golden vertical pupils and the faintly visible dragon scales on her right hand increased Ao Shan¡¯s aura.


    That was the bloodline suppression that belonged exclusively to those in power.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that his breathing was not smooth, and his body slowed down.


    ¡®Bloodline suppression?¡¯


    This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.


    Compared to the human bloodline, the true dragon bloodline had the advantage in the early stage.


    But in the later stage, the human bloodline far surpassed the true dragon bloodline.


    Although the human bloodline was weak in the early stage, it had strong flexibility.


    In the later stages of cultivation, the bloodline of every human expert was comparable to the bloodline of a true dragon.


    Not to mention those ancient clans that had been around for tens of thousands of years.


    The bloodline that had been purified from generation to generation had long been separated from the human bloodline.


    Therefore, the descendants of those ancient clans were also known as divine sons and goddesses.


    ¡®It¡¯s still not enough to be passive¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was extremely calm, but in his heart, he lamented that the passive skills¡¯ amplification effects were still not enough.


    When facing ordinary geniuses or cultivators, he could rely completely on all sorts of passive attributes to withstand the pressure.


    But when facing a true genius like Ao Shan, Zhou Feng¡¯s original disadvantage was continuously magnified.


    The aptitude of his body was still too low, even slightly lower than that of an ordinary person.


    If not for all sorts of passive skills and fortuitous encounters, cultivating to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm was simply a joke.


    And to close this gap, apart from obtaining more passive skills, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any other methods.


    ¡®I have my innate Longevity, anyway. As long as I live long enough, everything will be there!¡¯ Zhou Feng thought as he began to deal with the berserk Ao Shan.


    Ao Shan, who had already half-dragonized, had become terrifying in terms of her physical body. She even gave off an oppressive feeling just by getting close.


    Boom!


    The two sides once again collided with their physical bodies.


    This time, it was Zhou Feng who was sent flying.


    Even though he was on the defense, he could not withstand Ao Shan¡¯s attack.


    Zhou Feng crashed into a pillar. His spine was slightly cracked, and his entire body was covered in injuries.


    Ao Shan had no intention of stopping at all. Her originally round face had also become ferocious.


    The crystal clear dragon horns on her head had also become unusually sharp.


    She let out a dragon roar, shattering everything in the room. Even the large bed did not escape this calamity.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries mostly recovered as Ao Shan let out the roar.


    To be honest, this kind of injury was nothing to him.


    He had suffered even more serious injuries in the battle and had not even made a sound.


    ¡®This is already the limit of normal¡­¡¯


    The Human Emperor Blood in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to surge.


    That kind of situation just now was already the limit of normal battle prowess.


    If he wanted to be stronger, he could only burn the Human Emperor Blood to increase his battle prowess.


    For him, burning his Blood Qi was a common


    occurrence.


    This was because Zhou Feng had all kinds of methods that could make up for what he had consumed.


    If an ordinary cultivator acted like him, they would sooner or later play themselves to death.


    However, Zhou Feng had the passive Level-2 Gluttony and Tenacious Heart.


    The Human Emperor Blood that he had consumed could be recovered by eating directly.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was like an erupting volcano without any prior warning.


    Zhou Feng could not control the amplification brought about by burning the Human Emperor Blood.


    He could not do what he did before, not leaking any aura or Blood Qi.


    Ao Shan felt an aura on par with hers, and her face became even more excited.


    The combative nature that was rooted in her bloodline was now completely stimulated.


    Ao Shan and Zhou Feng started another round of super battle.


    The aquatic creatures probably had not expected that nothing ambiguous happened after Zhou Feng went to Ao Shan¡¯s room.


    On the contrary, the two of them directly started fighting. Even as they fought, they became angry.


    ¡°Damn it! Who knows what kind of background that little fish has!¡±


    ¡°No! We haven¡¯t found it yet! I even suspect that the little fish appeared out of nowhere!¡±


    ¡°No one knows him at all!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng and Ao Shan had left together, so the competition was not exciting at all.


    Many aquatic creatures were not thinking about this.


    Although ordinary aquatic creatures revered many powerful females, the Fifth Princess of the Dragon Palace was the only pearl in the Southern Sea.


    Many aquatic creatures still wanted to enjoy it all to themselves. They simply didn¡¯t want to share it with a lowly bloodline of unknown origin.


    Especially those aquatic creatures who had already reached the Daemon King rank were even more displeased with Zhou Feng.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s previous performance was remarkable, he was still not a Daemon King Just when the group of aquatic creatures was listless, a huge explosion came from the inner area of the Dragon Palace.


    The loud explosion traveled far away.


    Such an exaggerated explosion instantly stunned many aquatic creatures.


    This was the inner area of the Dragon Palace?


    Could there be a fool who took advantage of this period to launch a sneak attack on the Dragon Palace?


    One had to know that all kinds of Elders and Chieftains were gathered because of the Dragon Gate Festival. It could be said that Daemon Kings were everywhere.


    Who was the one who couldn¡¯t take it and chose this time to launch a sneak attack on the Dragon Palace?


    ¡°Look!¡±


    ¡°That seems to be¡­ the Fifth Princess!?¡±


    ¡°Fifth Princess? Then the other one is¡­¡±


    Soon, some aquatic creatures saw Ao Shan and Zhou Feng


    They even used the true dragon aura that Ao Shan emitted to confirm Ao Shan¡¯s identity.


    This¡­ Was this a fight?


    Moreover, both sides did not have any intention of holding back. From the looks of it, it was obvious that they were fighting out of anger! They all had the same opinion toward Ao Shan.


    ¡°As expected of a true dragon bloodline!¡±


    ¡°Too powerful! Given the strength that the Fifth Princess is displaying now, even the aquatic creatures that have just reached the Daemon King rank should not be able to defeat her!¡±


    ¡°What a powerful force! Even from so far away, my legs are a little soft.¡±


    This was a compliment. Some of the aquatic creatures even turned into bootlickers.


    They directly lapped wildly, regardless of whether Ao Shan could see them or not.

 Chapter 302 - Being Ruthless Enough!

    Chapter 302 Being Ruthless Enough!


    At that moment, countless aquatic creatures praised Ao Shan¡¯s heroic bearing.


    Her slightly ferocious appearance did not cause these aquatic creatures to feel fear. On the contrary, they were even more excited because Ao Shan¡¯s strength was too terrifying.


    That kind of bloodline suppression made many aquatic creatures regard Ao Shan as their dream lover.


    If they were to marry Ao Shan, their descendants would also be able to carry the bloodline of a true dragon.


    This was simply a wonderful thing.


    Compared to the human race, the ethics and temperament of the aquatic creatures were more barbaric.


    The continuation of the bloodline was something that all the aquatic creatures would be concerned about.


    This would often be taken out for discussion, and they would even interact with each other.


    Compared to the human race, it was even more barbaric.


    As for the evaluation of Zhou Feng, it was a completely different matter.


    ¡°Damn it! This little fish actually dared to be so ruthless!¡±


    ¡°How dare he? The old Dragon Sovereign is watching!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s not bloodline suppression! It¡¯s pure Blood Qi. This little fish really had a fortuitous encounter!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Completely different from Ao Shan, the pressure that Zhou Feng was emitting at this moment was not from the bloodline in his body. Instead, it was pure Blood Qi that was obtained through cultivation.


    This was not something that the aquatic creatures liked because descendants like Zhou Feng could not inherit a strong bloodline.


    They were naturally weaker than other aquatic creatures.


    It was nothing like the true dragon bloodline at all. As long as they left behind a descendant, the true dragon offspring would not even need to do anything and could automatically improve.


    Just like Ao Shan, before the battle with Zhou Feng, she had just been having fun.


    She hadn¡¯t even trained hard a few times.


    Still, her cultivation was the same as Zhou Feng¡¯s, and even breaking through to the Dragon King rank wasn¡¯t difficult.


    After all, the bloodline of a true dragon contained countless inherited divine abilities.


    As long as she reached the proper age, Ao Shan would naturally be able to comprehend the inherited divine abilities.


    Breaking through to the Dragon King rank directly was in stark contrast to Zhou Feng¡¯s diligent cultivation.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude wasn¡¯t that great, and he relied on various passive skills in many cases, his diligence was absolutely not to be underestimated to have reached this cultivation level.


    Ever since he had started cultivating, he had been cultivating almost every day.


    Basically, he hadn¡¯t stopped for a single moment. Other than cultivating, he would be looking for ways to become stronger.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s tireless cultivation initially was just to get rid of the fear of death in his heart, Zhou Feng was truly putting all his energy into cultivation.


    That slow process of becoming stronger and changing bit by bit was like an addiction.


    Zhou Feng relied entirely on his willpower to endure the pain of cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Although any injury could be healed through perseverance, the pain caused in the process could not be eliminated.


    Bang!


    Ao Shan¡¯s heavy punch landed on Zhou Feng and smashed him against a building of the Dragon Palace.


    Although Zhou Feng could unleash his full strength, he was still not used to fighting in the water.


    This might not be obvious when he was fighting other aquatic creatures, but this unfamiliarity became the biggest breakthrough point when he was fighting Ao Shan.


    ¡°Good!¡±


    ¡°As expected of the Fifth Princess!¡±


    ¡°I wonder where the stinky fish found the courage to fight with the Fifth Princess!¡±


    ¡°Hmph! What an idiot! He had such a good opportunity to be alone with the Fifth Princess! Yet, it turned out like this! What an idiot!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This kid has definitely provoked the Fifth Princess!¡±


    After Zhou Feng was sent flying, there was a wave of cheers immediately.


    At the same time, many aquatic creatures felt that hope had appeared again.


    Zhou Feng, this idiot, clearly had had the opportunity to be alone with the Fifth Princess.


    Now that he had angered the Fifth Princess and even dared to fight back, the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace would probably change. ¡°This aura¡­¡¯


    Ao Lie frowned and stared at Zhou Feng.


    He had a familiar feeling about the aura that Zhou Feng had erupted with.


    But upon closer inspection, Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline was still that of an ordinary Angelfish.


    It was not the aura of a human, but why was this aura so familiar?


    Ao Lie could only sense such an aura from the successors of the Human Emperor in his memory.


    But that was impossible!


    ¡®It was probably because of the cultivation method of this small fish.¡¯


    Ao Lie did not personally stop their battle, so the other aquatic creatures did not dare to come forward and stop the battle between Ao Shan and Zhou Feng. After all, Ao Lie, the Master of the Dragon Palace, did not say anything, so the other aquatic creatures were naturally not qualified. ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng, who had just destroyed a building with his physical body, immediately got up.


    The aura on his body did not decrease at all.


    Ao Shan¡¯s entire body went numb upon seeing this.


    This was because Zhou Feng had just started, and the recovery ability that he displayed was simply heaven-defying.


    No matter how he fought, it was difficult to cause much damage.


    Even if Zhou Feng looked miserable at the beginning, he recovered as soon as he was hit.


    His Blood Qi was like a furnace and showed no signs of weakening.


    The most troublesome thing was that Ao Shan felt that Zhou Feng¡¯s body was getting stronger as he fought.


    Meanwhile, she was getting less and less able to block Zhou Feng¡¯s attacks.


    This was natural. In this slugfest, Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills played a huge role.


    For example, the passive Blood Qi Recovery had reduced his Blood Qi consumption by 30% to a certain extent.


    Another example was the passive Spiritual Qi Resistance, allowing Zhou Feng to directly reduce his damage by 15% when facing attacks other than physical ones.


    The passive Adaptive Shell was also constantly adapting to Ao Shan¡¯s various attacks.


    Once Zhou Feng was seriously injured, his passive Injury Conversion would make his attacks fiercer.


    Ao Shan did not dare to advance recklessly, but Zhou Feng would take a while to recover.


    Other than the above-mentioned passive skills, the Armor-Piercing Spear, Tough Skin, and other passives also made Ao Shan extremely uncomfortable.


    ¡®Too difficult to deal with him!¡¯


    Ao Shan originally thought that as long as she activated the power of her bloodline, it would be easy to deal with Zhou Feng.


    She had even torn down her room unexpectedly, but she still couldn¡¯t take down Zhou Feng


    Zhou Feng even wanted to counterattack.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng seized the frustrated Ao Shan once again.


    He directly stepped on Ao Shan¡¯s face.


    In the next second, Zhou Feng directly attacked!


    He grabbed Ao Shan¡¯s two dragon horns and fiercely slammed her!


    Many aquatic creatures felt their hearts stop upon seeing this scene.


    This¡­ This courage was too great!


    He actually dared to be disrespectful to the Fifth Princess! He actually dared to step on the Fifth Princess¡¯ face!


    He even grabbed the Fifth Princess¡¯ dragon horns!?


    One had to know that the Fifth Princess¡¯ dragon horns were reverse scales. Whoever touched them would die.


    Ruthless!


    Even Ao Lie could not help but admire Zhou Feng¡¯s courage when he saw this scene.


    Too ruthless! In this battle, he did not have any misgivings at all.


    He was simply a natural warrior seed!


    If this was any other aquatic creature, they would not dare to do such a thing in front of Ao Lie.


    After all, once Ao Lie interfered, there would only be death.

 Chapter 303 - Stop

    Chapter 303 Stop


    Ao Shan immediately stood up and counterattacked after being ruthlessly smashed by Zhou Feng.


    Similarly, his attacks weren¡¯t very effective against Ao Shan.


    Ao Shan, who had the body of a true dragon, wouldn¡¯t be injured by such an attack.


    Unless the opponent had stepped into the Divine Ability realm and infused the power of laws in their attacks, all other attacks would have no effect.


    Compared to Purple Mansion experts, having the bloodline of a true dragon was too much of an advantage. Even the passive Armor-Piercing Spear had only caused some trouble for Ao Shan.


    It could not be used as a trump card at all.


    The buildings and roofs were all messed up by these two people.


    Ao Lie¡¯s eyes were twitching crazily.


    The Dragon Palace would probably be torn down if he didn¡¯t stop them.


    However, Ao Lie didn¡¯t want to stop them. He wanted to see how much strength his precious daughter could display.


    As mentioned before, the aquatic creatures relied on the power of their bloodlines to a large extent to continuously break through realms.


    It sounded as if they could improve their realms just by sleeping.


    That was true, but don¡¯t think that the actual battle prowess of these aquatic creatures was not enough.


    Because they did not need to waste too much time on cultivation, these aquatic creatures could spend all their time honing their combat skills. Normal aquatic creatures had been fighting since they were young.


    It was very normal for them to fight each other in the Southern Sea.


    It was the same, even under the rule of the Dragon Palace.


    There were even some large tribes that would start a war against the Dragon Palace.


    This was all to fight for the necessary resources and also to temper the warriors. The threat of the human race never disappeared.


    After all, the Southern Sea was rich in all kinds of resources, and there were many special cultivation resources that were not available on land.


    The few large sects and cities nearby had always coveted the rich resources of the Southern Sea.


    If there were not enough warriors, it would be impossible to resist the invasion of the humans.


    Therefore, with the acquiescence of the various forces, battles among the various aquatic tribes were already an unspoken rule.


    Almost every warrior had fought their way to the top.


    Their combat experience was extremely rich, and it was easy for them to breakthrough cultivation realms¡ªthat was a huge advantage over the humans.


    The human race¡¯s geniuses not only needed to devote a great deal of time to cultivation and breakthroughs, but they also needed to practice a variety of methods in order to maintain their combat effectiveness.


    These two were indispensable.


    Apart from these, ordinary human cultivators also had to deal with complicated interpersonal relationships.


    They had to exchange for sufficient cultivation resources in their own factions.


    The inner conflicts were much more terrifying than the aquatic creatures¡¯.


    Only the most talented people could become cultivators.


    It was unlike the Southern Sea, where some aquatic creatures with very low aptitudes could rely on the shapeshifting grass.


    They turned into human form and began to cultivate slowly.


    As long as they had a long lifespan, they would be able to grind their way up.


    In addition, the Southern Sea was big enough to accommodate many aquatic species living together.


    There was so much that was said above.


    But it did not apply to Ao Shan.


    The blood of a true dragon was flowing in her body, so almost no aquatic species dared to be ruthless.


    Or it could be said that Ao Shan¡¯s true dragon bloodline was slightly agitated.


    Many of the aquatic creatures immediately knelt down.


    Only a fool like Zhou Feng was qualified to be Ao Shan¡¯s sparring opponent.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Ao Shan¡¯s vertical pupils suddenly turned blood red.


    Her savage mouth opened to the maximum, and violent energy began to gather.


    Dragon Breath!


    This could be considered a skill that every true dragon knew.


    Other than that, for true dragons, riding the clouds, chasing the waves, and so on were all skills that were engraved in their bloodline.


    Ao Shan had never learned it before. She only learned it as she fought.


    ¡°How terrifying!¡±


    ¡°Fifth Princess¡­¡±


    ¡°This is going to destroy the entire Dragon Palace!¡±


    Seeing Ao Shan¡¯s crazy appearance, the originally excited aquatic creatures couldn¡¯t help but swallow their saliva.


    That brutal and ferocious look really made people suck in a breath of cold air.


    Under such power, Zhou Feng probably would not be able to hold on for long!


    If this continued, Ao Shan would tear down the entire Dragon Palace.


    Zhou Feng felt that brutal aura and his face became calmer.


    He had already begun to restrain his Blood Qi in an attempt to control the waste of Blood Qi after burning it.


    Under the enormous pressure, he progressed very quickly.


    If Ao Shan was getting stronger and stronger, she could even continuously stimulate the potential contained in her bloodline.


    Zhou Feng relied on the enormous pressure Ao Shan gave him to hone his combat skills and make himself stronger continuously.


    If this situation continued¡­


    If there was no external intervention, these two people might really be able to fight for a few days.


    ¡°Enough!¡±


    Ao Lie couldn¡¯t hold it in anymore.


    The strength of the Master of the Dragon Palace was undoubtedly displayed at this moment.


    The shadow of a Flood Dragon appeared in the sky and suppressed all the aquatic creatures present.


    The black shadow of the Flood Dragon was even more terrifying than Ao Shan¡¯s true dragon aura.


    Although it was inferior to a true dragon in terms of rank, the surging murderous aura made every aquatic creature tremble in fear.


    To be able to catch the eye of a true dragon and even leave behind a daughter, Ao Lie was naturally not a mediocre and incompetent person.


    ¡°Oh? Father¡¯s voice!¡±


    Ao Shan woke up at that time.


    The signs of dragonification slowly disappeared, and she turned into an extremely cute loli with dragon horns.


    As for Zhou Feng, although he felt a little regretful when he saw this, he could only stop.


    Such a top-notch sparring partner was not something that could be found very often.


    However, he still chose to follow his heart when facing a pinnacle Daemon King.


    ¡°Alright! Hurry up and go back!¡± Seeing that Ao Shan had already regained consciousness, Ao Lie did not pursue the matter any further.


    After all, one was his precious daughter, and the other was already a predetermined son-in-law.


    They were all on the same side, so this little loss was nothing


    Ao Shan woke up and instantly realized what she had just done.


    She had a feeling of social death in her heart for a moment.


    She did not care about anything and directly slipped away at that moment.


    In the process of escaping, Ao Shan did not forget to bring Zhou Feng along.


    If she left Zhou Feng there, she would probably be punished a lot.


    Of course, Ao Shan did not forget.


    Zhou Feng had not held back at all during their battle.


    He had even stepped on her face.


    This was the first time Ao Shan felt that kind of feeling


    ¡®I can¡¯t let this little fish slip away!¡¯ Ao Shan was in an exceptionally good mood. At the same time, she acknowledged Zhou Feng in her heart. That battle just now was too great.


    Ever since she was born, this was the first time she had experienced the joy of battle.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng frowned.


    Could it be that he would become this so-called son-in-law of the Dragon Palace!


    It was better to make a trip to the mystic realm as soon as possible. ¡®Let¡¯s see if there are any follow-up cultivation techniques of the Human Emperor Scripture in there and then escape!


    ¡®If this drags on, it will be difficult to escape in the future.¡¯

 Chapter 304 - The Trouble of Having too much Charm

    Chapter 304 The Trouble of Having too much Charm


    This farce came to an end with the Dragon Gate Festival.


    But this Dragon Gate Festival made the name of an aquatic creature resound throughout the entire Southern Sea¡ªZhou Feng!


    Zhou Feng was much more casual after accepting his true nature. He was no longer as timid as before, so he directly used his real name for the third identity.


    He didn¡¯t continue to use aliases.


    Although many aquatic creatures knew Zhou Feng¡¯s name, they would basically use the words ¡®little fish¡¯ to describe him when they were talking about him.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline was only that of the most ordinary Angelfish. This bloodline was almost the lowest level in the entire Southern Sea.


    Calling Zhou Feng ¡®little fish¡¯ reflected the current mood of many aquatic creatures.


    It was envy, jealousy, and hatred!


    He had such an ordinary bloodline, yet he was able to cultivate to Rank-9 Daemon General.


    He was at the peak of the Daemon General rank, just one step away from stepping into the King rank, which was the humans¡¯ so-called Divine Ability realm.


    After stepping into the Daemon King rank, one could create a tribe of their own. They could live and multiply in the vast sea.


    ¡°Is this true? That little fish really has the most ordinary bloodline of an Angelfish?¡±


    ¡°He managed to captivate the Fifth Princess just like that?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Although that little fish¡¯s bloodline isn¡¯t good, his talent can be said to be superb!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know how he cultivates!¡±


    Zhou Feng probably did not expect that after his deeds were spread to other parts of the Southern Sea.


    He actually inspired many aquatic creatures with low bloodlines and caused them to work hard to replicate Zhou Feng¡¯s achievements.


    He became the spiritual idol of a generation of aquatic creatures.


    Zhou Feng was now staying in Ao Shan¡¯s room.


    Many aquatic creatures had wanted to meet him not long ago, and he even felt a strange


    aura.


    He instantly realized that he seemed to have been sucked into a whirlpool, so he simply hid in Ao Shan¡¯s room.


    No one dared to break in there anyway.


    To be honest, the series of changes before had disrupted Zhou Feng¡¯s original plan of retreat.


    He should have faked his death to escape and then leave the Dragon Palace according to his


    plan.


    But because of all kinds of fortuitous encounters and changes, this situation had been created.


    ¡°The troublesome matter at hand now¡­¡¯


    The only thing that troubled Zhou Feng was that Ao Shan seemed to really like him.


    It was probably because the aquatic creatures she had met before were too dog-licking.


    Ao Shan instantly fell in love with Zhou Feng¡¯s unique style.


    Zhou Feng had some understanding of this kind of psychology.


    This kind of feeling was like you were used to eating pigeons until you suddenly ate a roast chicken.


    It was very easy to fall in love with it.


    ¡®And the damned passive Amorous Prodigal Heart!¡¯


    Zhou Feng understood that the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart caused trouble. It directly increased his charm, making it easier for him to gain the favor of others.


    Although this was useful in most cases, the disadvantage was obvious in some cases.


    With Ao Lie¡¯s emphasis on Ao Shan, she would definitely ask Ao Lie to find Zhou Feng if he disappeared.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what methods an expert who was about to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm had.


    But one thing was certain. As one¡¯s realm increased, there would be more and more methods that one could use.


    Even Zhou Feng himself was not sure whether Ao Lie would find him.


    Then, his identity would be discovered, and he would directly provoke countless enemies.


    If possible, the fewer enemies, the better.


    ¡°Hey! Zhou Feng! I helped you ask my father! The mystic realm can be opened in a week!¡±


    While he was thinking, Ao Shan walked up to him casually.


    After the battle, Ao Shan had become more intimate with Zhou Feng. She no longer felt distant.


    ¡°One week later? Okay, got it. Thank you!¡±


    Zhou Feng silently counted the time he had left.


    At the same time, he began to think about how to deal with Ao Shan.


    While he was thinking, Ao Shan was a little bored. Her big cute eyes stared at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his head.


    ¡°Nothing. But what I want to ask is, there doesn¡¯t seem to be anything good in the mystic realm, so why are you so persistent? If you have something you want, just tell me!¡±


    Ao Shan really didn¡¯t understand.


    Why was Zhou Feng so persistent about the mystic realm?


    He had even asked about the mystic realm¡¯s opening time of the mystic realm.


    Except for the core area of the mystic realm, almost all the other places had been plundered once. There was nothing good in there either.


    As for the core area, they, the aquatic creatures, couldn¡¯t enter at all.


    So for the son-in-law of the Dragon King¡¯s Palace, the Dragon King¡¯s secret realm was really of little value.


    If Zhou Feng wanted something, Ao Shan could take it out directly as long as he said so.


    After all, apart from being an old loli, she was also a super-rich woman who had a mine.


    Sometimes, Zhou Feng even wanted to take advantage of Ao Shan¡¯s good impression of him and make a lot of money.


    Since he was going to run away, he might as well take advantage of this good opportunity to get more resources.


    After the Purple Jade Bell was placed in the land of rebirth, Zhou Feng had actually wanted to refine a spiritual artifact to protect himself.


    He happened to be in the Dragon Palace, which had Artifact Refiners and all kinds of precious ores.


    If he opened his mouth, it would be no problem for him to get a spiritual artifact with spiritual essence.


    But if he did that, it would mean that the karma would be big.


    Originally, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t believe in karma.


    But after experiencing a soaring realm and the enlightenment state, he knew that these things were not picked up for free.


    There was a price. All the karma of the Human Emperor was left to Zhou Feng.


    Why do you think Zhou Feng has always wanted to enter the mystic realm?


    Besides looking for the follow-up cultivation method of the Human Emperor Scripture, there was another crucial point-the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny kept urging him!


    The Human Emperor¡¯s destiny seemed to be saying, ¡°I¡¯ve helped you a lot! Hurry up and help your brother!¡±


    Because of this, Zhou Feng did not want to owe Ao Shan too much.


    Zhou Feng glanced at Ao Shan lightly and deliberately said in a flat tone, ¡°Why? Why are you asking these questions? Are you in love with me? But I don¡¯t like you!¡±


    After hearing his words, Ao Shan instantly became angry.


    She stopped trying to find out why Zhou Feng was so persistent in entering the mystic realm.


    ¡°What¡­ What are you talking about? Do you know what you¡¯re talking about? I¡¯m the Fifth Princess of the Dragon Palace!¡±


    Ao Shan¡¯s white and tender cheeks puffed up.


    ¡°The Fifth Princess of the Dragon Palace? So I have to like you?¡±


    Zhou Feng was still calm and began to destroy Ao Shan¡¯s good impression of him according to his own thoughts. ¡°I¡­¡±


    Ao Shan did not know what to say when she heard about this flower.


    However, in her eyes, Zhou Feng suddenly became detestable.

 Chapter 305 - Being a Turtle?

    Chapter 305 Being a Turtle?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s deliberate actions caused Ao Shan to stop pestering him.


    Zhou Feng also did not step out of Ao Shan¡¯s room. He hid here almost the entire time to cultivate.


    If he was thirsty, he would drink a little. He would eat some of his rations in his storage ring if he was hungry.


    In fact, with the amount of Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body, not eating for nine days and nights was not a problem.


    He did not go out because there were too many troublesome things outside.


    Zhou Feng did not even need to think about it to know that countless forces and aquatic tribes were paying attention to him.


    He was very clear that a tall tree would attract the wind.


    In that case, he might as well hide in Ao Shan¡¯s room.


    It was absolutely safe here, and no one dared to disturb him.


    Even Ao Shan¡¯s brothers didn¡¯t dare to come here.


    After all, once Ao Shan went crazy, Ao Lie would definitely favor his precious daughter.


    In addition, there was enough Spiritual Qi here, making it a good place for cultivation.


    Thus, Zhou Feng planned to stay until the mystic realm opened.


    Once the mystic realm was opened, he would enter and start to look for the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    Once he found it, he would immediately flee.


    Zhou Feng had already planned all of this. He would not give anyone any chance to find trouble with him.


    In fact, Zhou Feng¡¯s method had already succeeded.


    Many forces were dumbfounded when they found out that he had been hiding in Ao Shan¡¯s room.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Is that little fish a turtle? Why has he been holing himself in there?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t he a little too cowardly? Does he have the guts to be the husband of the Fifth Princess?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s not worthy! This little fish isn¡¯t worthy


    at all!¡±


    Many of the aquatic creatures began to clamor when they found out that Zhou Feng was so cowardly.


    Some of the aquatic creatures even wanted to challenge Zhou Feng one-on-one to change Ao Shan¡¯s opinion.


    This kind of talk even directly affected the Dragon Palace.


    The servants in the Dragon Palace also slightly despised Zhou Feng.


    What was the point of hiding all this time?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance at the Dragon Gate Festival was amazing, so why didn¡¯t he come out now?


    Was he afraid that he would be defeated and then disappoint Ao Shan?


    Ao Shan was also infuriated when she heard those ugly words.


    Zhou Feng was so strong, and he had guts.


    How could an aquatic creature who could ignore the true dragon bloodline and step on Ao Shan¡¯s face without any scruples in battle be timid?


    Wasn¡¯t this a joke?


    Ao Shan knew that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t that kind of person, but she couldn¡¯t take the initiative to explain. This kind of thing could only be effective if Zhou Feng clarified it himself.


    If someone else helped Zhou Feng, it would only make things worse.


    When Ao Shan was angry, she also went to look for Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Oh, got it,¡± responded Zhou Feng. There was no other reaction as if he did not care at all.


    In fact, he really did not care. He did not care about other people¡¯s comments to begin with.


    No matter if other people praised or scolded him, his strength wouldn¡¯t be reduced in the slightest.


    In that case, why should he waste his energy paying attention to these things?


    Although everyone could say this sentence, it could be expressed in actual actions.


    Even Ao Lie, the Master of the Dragon Palace, couldn¡¯t help but be sometimes influenced by some public opinions.


    Zhou Feng might not care much about what other people thought of him because of his transmigration.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng was still calm, Ao Shan¡¯s anxious mood calmed down a lot.


    ¡°But many aquatic creatures know that you are about to enter the mystic realm. When that time comes, you won¡¯t be able to escape!¡±


    Ao Shan, who had calmed down, brought another piece of news to Zhou Feng.


    The news that Zhou Feng was about to enter the mystic realm had already spread out.


    When that time came, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have so many places to hide.


    A few elite aquatic creatures were already ready to enter the mystic realm to attack Zhou Feng


    Those weren¡¯t so-called geniuses but real elites.


    Each and every one of them had reached the Daemon King rank for quite some time!


    Moreover, these elites had Chieftains of the Daemon King rank, who had made cultivation plans since they were young.


    There were also countless life-saving treasures and all kinds of secret techniques.


    None of Ao Shan¡¯s brothers was a match for those elites.


    This sounded a little unbelievable.


    Wasn¡¯t the Dragon Palace the strongest force in the Southern Sea?


    Why were the heavens¡¯ favorites of the Dragon Palace not a match for the large tribes¡¯ heavens¡¯ favorites?


    Actually, the reason was very simple. It was because they were compared to those large tribes that had been around for thousands of


    years.


    The Dragon Palace was still young. Ao Lie¡¯s generation established the Dragon Palace.


    Their foundation was completely lacking. Ao Lie himself could fight in all directions and suppress the Southern Sea.


    Other than those old monsters, no other aquatic tribe was a match for Ao Lie.


    However, Ao Lie was no match for them when it came to nurturing the younger generation!


    The Flood Dragon bloodline might sound powerful, but it was nothing compared to the ancient aquatic tribes that had a long history.


    There was only a small difference. If it weren¡¯t for Ao Shan, who had the bloodline of a true dragon, the next generation of the Dragon Palace would have fallen.


    ¡°Prodigies?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brows twitched slightly as he listened to Ao Shan¡¯s vivid narration of these secrets.


    He had not expected that these aquatic prodigies would be so strong.


    ¡°Then can you defeat those prodigies?¡± asked Zhou Feng.


    ¡°If I break through to the Daemon King rank, I will naturally crush them!¡± Ao Shan was very confident.


    ¡®So it¡¯s like this¡­¡¯


    Upon hearing Ao Shan¡¯s answer, Zhou Feng understood how strong those prodigies were.


    Hiding here and not going out was definitely the right choice.


    Even Ao Shan, who had the bloodline of a true dragon, did not dare to say that she could deal with these heaven¡¯s favorites.


    A head-on confrontation would not work!


    But why did Zhou Feng have to fight head-on?


    He could use his Aquamarine Turtle identity after entering the mystic realm. Not even Ao Lie could monitor everything there.


    Not to mention, this so-called mystic realm was actually the humans¡¯ home ground.


    Zhou Feng would have an advantage in the mystic realm.


    ¡®Bloodline Simulation! This is simply a god-level passive! Zhou Feng sighed again. The passive Bloodline Simulation was simply too important to him.


    Zhou Feng would have been reborn long ago if not for this passive.


    How could he be doing so well in the Southern Sea otherwise?


    ¡®Is the progress bar full again?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng mentioned this passive skill, he subconsciously looked at the skill panel.


    What was surprising was that the progress bar was full again!


    In other words, he could draw passive skills again.


    Was it because of his battle with Ao Shan?


    Zhou Feng keenly felt that as long as there were more battles and disputes, the progress bar would increase faster than cultivating peacefully and steadily.


    He faintly seemed to know what the skill panel relied on to recharge.

 Chapter 306 - The Prodigies Act

    Chapter 306 The Prodigies Act


    Destiny! Every time Zhou Feng changed his destiny, the faster the skill panel would be charged.


    This was his speculation.


    If he was quiet and didn¡¯t disturb anyone, his destiny would be less affected. Ergo, the slower the progress bar would charge.


    And every time Zhou Feng encountered something and changed something in his way, the progress bar increased rapidly.


    As for why the consumption of Spirit Stones could speed up the progress bar, Zhou Feng had a speculation as well.


    The Spirit Stones had many uses, but he consumed them for his progress bar.


    This indirectly changed a person¡¯s destiny.


    Changing one¡¯s destiny allowed the progress bar to be charged.


    ¡®This can even explain why I get a chance to draw a passive skill every time I break through.¡¯


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more he felt this was the case.


    Because as his realm increased, the impact on this world would be greater.


    The more he changed destiny, the faster the progress bar would be charged.


    Zhou Feng instantly felt that his entire mind was clear.


    The question troubling him for a long time had been solved just like that?


    Although these were all his guesses, Zhou Feng felt this might be the correct answer.


    ¡®In other words, the more I can change my destiny, the more passive skills I can gain!¡¯


    At that instant, Zhou Feng thought of carrying out a massacre!


    A large-scale massacre could change the destiny of countless people, right?


    However, he discarded that idea immediately.


    That was no different than courting death. He didn¡¯t need to be so impatient.


    He currently needed to take things step by step.


    ¡®Don¡¯t forget, my innate divine ability is Longevity. I still have a lot of time!¡¯


    After calming his restless heart, Zhou Feng drew a new passive skill.


    He did not know what kind of passive skill he would obtain this time.


    The previous passive skills he had obtained were too good, so this caused his expectations to be very high.


    If he could obtain a few more abnormal passive skills, those so-called elites would not be unable to touch them.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    A new passive skill appeared before Zhou Feng.


    On the other side, Ao Shan could only shake her head and leave when she saw that Zhou Feng was still expressionless.


    In any case, just his identity as the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace deterred the aquatic creatures from doing anything to Zhou Feng


    Ao Shan felt that she did not need to worry too much.


    That¡¯s right! Ao Shan had completely approved of Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s words from before did not even have the slightest negative effect.


    Instead, they made Ao Shan feel that Zhou Feng had a unique personality. Sometimes, it was like this. The more you did not want something, the more the heavens wanted to give it to you.


    The more you wanted something, the more you could not get it, no matter what.


    ¡°Celestial Forefinger!?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not know why he thought of some bad things when he looked at this passive skill¡¯s name.


    Celestial Forefinger: Your right forefinger will become abnormally strong, with a hint of shattering intent.


    Zhou Feng looked at his right forefinger.


    This forefinger didn¡¯t change much compared to before.


    But Zhou Feng could feel the power contained in his forefinger.


    Shattering intent!


    It was an intent that could shatter everything.


    It was equivalent to an armor-piercing effect.


    Zhou Feng felt that he only needed to give a light flick with his forefinger to poke a hole in a piece of black iron.


    And he didn¡¯t need to waste any strength.


    If it was just in terms of power and help, this passive skill wasn¡¯t weak at all.


    But why only one finger?


    And not one hand?


    ¡®Only one finger! This is too¡­¡¯ Zhou Feng frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable.


    But it was still good. This passive skill was not considered trash, and it improved his battle prowess.


    In some cases, it could even be used as a killing move.


    Thinking about it, he could directly use the passive Celestial Forefinger during battle. There was no way the other party would be prepared for this.


    Another passive skill was put into the bag.


    Zhou Feng calmly began to cultivate. He polished his body until the mystic realm opened.


    After Zhou Feng hid for a few days, the mystic realm was officially opened.


    He was the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace, so he had the privilege to enter the mystic realm ahead of time.


    He did not need to enter with others.


    Although Ao Shan did not understand why Zhou Feng was so obsessed with entering the mystic realm, this was nothing more than a trial. Perhaps Zhou Feng wanted to train himself further.


    Or rather, it was fairer in the mystic realm. He could wash away his reputation as a coward.


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Before entering the mystic realm, Zhou Feng hesitated slightly in his heart.


    In the end, he bade farewell to Ao Shan.


    Although he couldn¡¯t stay and be the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace, Ao Shan had been really good to him. It seemed a bit cruel to leave without saying goodbye.


    Thus, he planned to say goodbye to Ao Shan.


    After entering the mystic realm, he would change his identity. Then, he would take the opportunity to sneak out and leave the Southern Sea.


    ¡°Goodbye? Oh! I¡¯ll see you then!¡±


    Ao Shan was a little stunned. This was the first time Zhou Feng had taken the initiative to speak to her.


    But why was his tone a little strange?


    He would only stay in the mystic realm for a few days.


    When he came out, he would still be able to meet her.


    Was there a need to take the initiative to come over and say goodbye?


    Could it be that Zhou Feng had prostrated himself under this princess¡¯s skirt!?


    ¡®I told you! No aquatic creature can resist this princess¡¯s charm!¡¯


    For some baffling reason, Ao Shan¡¯s face instantly turned red.


    No one knew what she was thinking.


    When Zhou Feng saw Ao Shan¡¯s expression, he said nothing more. Instead, he turned around and entered the teleportation formation.


    He only hoped that Ao Shan would not be so agitated when the time came.


    However, Ao Shan might only be sad for a period of time.


    She might even be angry for some time before forgetting about him.


    The moment Zhou Feng entered the mystic realm, the other elite aquatic creatures received the news.


    ¡°That little fish is already in position! It¡¯s time for us to perform next!¡±


    ¡°I really can¡¯t stand it! A little fish who hasn¡¯t even comprehended any divine abilities needs us to act!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s the point of being a genius if he doesn¡¯t know how to use divine abilities?¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s nothing we can do about it! This is a mission from the tribe. It¡¯s a good opportunity to explore the core area of the mystic realm. It won¡¯t be a loss!¡±


    The expressions of these elite aquatic creatures were a little lethargic.


    This was because they really didn¡¯t put Zhou Feng in their eyes. He was an aquatic creature that didn¡¯t even know how to use divine abilities. In fact, his bloodline was even that of the most ordinary Angelfish.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that this was a tribe mission, they would have really been too lazy to move.


    And this stinky fish had actually suppressed so many aquatic creatures and became the Fifth Princess¡¯s husband.


    This was simply a disgrace. A true dragon like the Fifth Princess was only worthy of them, the heavens¡¯ favorites.


    In order to suppress them, the old Dragon Sovereign had actually excluded them all.


    It was simply wishful thinking. Ao Lie alone could not protect the true dragon bloodline.

 Chapter 307 - Transformation

    Chapter 307 Transformation


    In the mystic realm¡­


    This was a space created by the mighty figures of the human race.


    It was especially used to store all kinds of cultivation resources and the heritage of the Human Emperors.


    It was so that the Human Emperors would be able to rise again one day.


    The decline of the Human Emperors was inevitable in the eyes of some mighty figures. No one could change the fate of the Human Emperors in the great world.


    Therefore, they could only leave a way out and plan for the future.


    There was more than one space like this mystic realm.


    This kind of reserve space directly covered the entire continent.


    It was a pity that none of these mystic realms were used.


    All the descendants of the Human Emperors had died overnight, and not even the last Human Emperor escaped this disaster.


    On the contrary, these mystic realms had contributed to the establishment of countless sects and forces after the fall of the Human Emperors and their descendants.


    This was also why it was so difficult for a Human Emperor to remerge.


    Those sects that had taken advantage of the mystic realms would naturally not allow a Human Emperor to rise again.


    What if the Human Emperor rose again and asked for something from sects like them?


    ¡®Is this mystic realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to observe his surroundings after a short period of dizziness.


    At first, he thought that the Dragon Sovereign¡¯s mystic realm was similar to the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm.


    Not to mention the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers, it had been full of vitality, but at least the Spiritual Qi was very rich.


    Surprisingly, the environment here was desolate.


    Spiritual Qi? There was no such thing.


    That barren land made it hard for people to believe this was a complete mystic realm.


    Logically speaking, as long as it was a complete mystic realm, the Spiritual Qi in the mystic realm would become denser and denser while it would give birth to all kinds of spiritual objects under strict management.


    Mystic realms were equivalent to large-scale resource breeding grounds.


    As long as a faction controlled a mystic realm, they would choose to work hard. They would never let a mystic realm become so barren.


    ¡®It¡¯s coming! This kind of guidance from the dark!


    Suddenly, the Human Emperor Ring in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand started to heat up and guided him in a certain direction.


    Zhou Feng had gone through a lot of trouble just for the Human Emperor¡¯s land of heritage, so he would follow it without hesitation.


    However, before he left, Zhou Feng chose to switch his bloodline.


    He could no longer use the Angelfish identity.


    It was better to switch to the Aquamarine Turtle bloodline!


    Apart from switching his bloodline, Zhou Feng also tried his best to conceal his aura.


    His ability to control his aura was simply invincible with the Longevity Breathing Technique.


    If one did not use his naked eyes to look at Zhou Feng, they would not be able to sense him.


    He was like a rock. This was something he had comprehended during his state of enlightenment.


    After covering his tracks, Zhou Feng unhurriedly moved in the direction the ring pointed to.


    He could not rush!


    The more this happened, the more he knew that he could not rush.


    The more anxious you were, the easier it would be for you to suffer a loss.


    In any case, Zhou Feng himself didn¡¯t believe that there were so many free lunches in the world.


    Ever since he found the Human Emperor Ring, all sorts of fortuitous encounters and benefits had fallen from the sky.


    If it were someone else, they would probably think that they were the chosen one.


    With so many fortuitous encounters and the Human Emperor Ring, they would definitely be the next Human Emperor.


    ¡®If I had such a mindset, I would definitely be dragged into the whirlpool step by step.¡¯


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s mindset was different.


    This was because he was well aware he was an ordinary person.


    Even in his previous life, he would still be an extremely ordinary person.


    ¡®However, I still have to go take a look. If there¡¯s any danger, I¡¯ll immediately flee.¡¯


    Zhou Feng touched the Human Emperor Ring.


    This thing was not his golden finger. His real golden finger was the skill panel!


    Less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the so-called aquatic prodigies also entered the mystic realm.


    ¡°Use the Soul-Guiding Lamp!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s useless? It seems that he has some ability! But it¡¯s normal. Without some ability, how could he win the Fifth Princess¡¯ favor?¡±


    ¡°Then we¡¯ll move separately?¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s see who¡¯s better. Usually, we can¡¯t decide who¡¯s better. How about this hunt?¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    The few heavens¡¯ favorites first used the Soul-Guiding Lamp to look for Zhou Feng¡¯s tracks.


    The Soul-Guiding Lamp was a special spiritual device. As long as there was a trace of aura, it could track the owner.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had already been collected in the Dragon Palace.


    Even though Zhou Feng had been hiding in Ao Shan¡¯s room, he had not been able to escape the means of these large tribes.


    Unfortunately, the Soul-Guiding Lamp was not of much use.


    In the end, it was still up to them to search separately.


    These heavens¡¯ favorites even took the risk of hunting Zhou Fenglai alone. They wanted to see who was better.


    ¡°Let¡¯s make it clear in advance. Before we leave the mystic realm, no one will win!


    ¡°Also! Don¡¯t be too heavy-handed. If you kill that little fish, we¡¯ll be in trouble!¡±


    ¡°Does this mean that the first one we find won¡¯t be counted as a winner and will only be counted if we bring him out of the mystic realm first?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    These arrogant heavens¡¯ favorites made their hunting plans with just a few words.


    In order to avoid killing Zhou Feng, the elders had especially reminded the violent prodigies to capture him with various methods.


    There were also many experts outside spying on them, especially Ao Lie. He naturally knew what those aquatic tribes were doing.


    But he didn¡¯t have the intention to stop them. It would be fine as long as Zhou Feng didn¡¯t die!


    But Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had always made Ao Lie feel a little strange.


    Ao Lie had not paid much attention to it before, but now, the more he thought about it, the weirder it became.


    Zhou Feng had definitely hidden his bloodline. His real bloodline could not possibly be so ordinary.


    That kind of physical body, keen perception, and calm state of mind were not something that an ordinary Angelfish bloodline could support. ¡°Eh? Where did it go? Why did that aura suddenly disappear?¡±


    To Ao Lie¡¯s surprise, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura suddenly disappeared!


    It disappeared inexplicably without any signs.


    It could even avoid the monitoring of the treasure in Ao Lie¡¯s hand.


    ¡®Sure enough, Zhou Feng has a big secret. Could he have come from the east?¡¯


    Ao Lie began to guess whether Zhou Feng had come from the Eastern Sea.


    Compared to the Southern Sea, the Eastern Sea was a real ocean.


    There were several true dragons, and the Dragon Palaces in the Eastern Sea were all authentic ones.


    It was not like in the Southern Sea, where a Flood Dragon dared to call himself the Dragon Sovereign.


    Ao Lie kept guessing, but he was only guessing whether Zhou Feng was an aquatic creature with a noble bloodline.


    It had never crossed his mind that Zhou Feng was actually a human.


    A human had sneaked into his place and fought with his precious daughter during the process?


    Moreover, his expression had not changed throughout the whole process. He was not the least bit afraid.


    The most important point was that Zhou Feng breathed very naturally in the water, just like other aquatic creatures.


    Unlike humans, Zhou Feng did not need to use the Water Avoidance Art.


    In fact, this was the main factor Ao Lie did not facilitate the thought he may be a human.

 Chapter 308 - Destiny Struck Him

    Chapter 308 Destiny Struck Him


    ¡®It¡¯s getting stronger!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the Human Emperor Ring getting hotter and hotter.


    As he kept moving in the direction it was pointing, the ring¡¯s reaction was getting more and more intense.


    At the same time, the barren environment around him also changed slightly.


    The originally barren landscape became a beautiful one with lush green grass.


    Zhou Feng even had the misconception that the barren appearance was an illusion.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi also became denser.


    And this was only a short distance.


    ¡®It seems that it¡¯s not that the Dragon Palace doesn¡¯t want to manage this mystic realm properly, but that there¡¯s no way¡­¡¯


    Now he understood why the Dragon Palace didn¡¯t manage this mystic realm properly.


    It was because this mystic realm was not completely under the Dragon Palace¡¯s control.


    As Zhou Feng got closer to the destination of this trip, he felt a sense of oppression.


    It felt like he was trapped in a quagmire, and the more he struggled, the stronger the resistance around him became.


    If he did not struggle, the slowly increasing pressure would suffocate him.


    In fact, what Zhou Feng did not know was that this was a restriction left behind by the Human Emperors.


    Any non-human aura would be suppressed.


    Zhou Feng did not exude his human aura because of the passive Bloodline Simulation, so this restriction suppressed him.


    The more he walked toward the center, the clearer the feeling of suppression became.


    It was also because of this remnant restriction that Ao Lie could not completely control this mystic realm.


    However, this restriction would not last for long.


    This restriction had started getting weaker a few years ago.


    Previously, this restriction affected the entire mystic realm, but it could only protect a small area in the center now.


    Even this small area was not fully protected.


    At this time, the Human Emperor Ring began to remind Zhou Feng to reveal his human presence.


    This way, he would be able to reach the core area smoothly.


    ¡®Reveal my human aura?¡¯


    Zhou Feng received the message from the Human Emperor Ring, and his eyes narrowed slightly, but he did not do it.


    Instead, he endured the pressure and continued to walk forward.


    ¡®I want to see how strong this pressure is!¡¯


    Zhou Feng gathered the Blood Qi in his body and began to walk forward step by step.


    Pressure!


    Endless pressure!


    With every step he took, the pressure in the surroundings surged like seawater.


    There was even a strange force in the surroundings that began to seal his Spiritual Qi.


    If he wanted to continue walking forward, he could only use his pure physical body to do so.


    And just by relying on his physical body, he was completely unable to resist that terrifying pressure.


    This kind of pressure was all-encompassing, and even Zhou Feng¡¯s internal organs were under the same pressure.


    Crack! Crack


    After taking three steps forward, Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to produce crazy noises, like a car that was about to be scrapped.


    Zhou Feng still did not reveal his human aura under these circumstances. Instead, he rested for a while and relied on his passive Tenacious Heart to recover from his injuries.


    In just a few seconds, those minor injuries instantly recovered.


    ¡®Continue!¡¯


    Zhou Feng realized that this was an excellent place for cultivation.


    He could improve his physical body here.


    Moreover, under this kind of pressure, he could try to control his Blood Qi.


    TOON QI.


    With this, he could perfect the Longevity Breathing Technique and strive to control his Blood Qi completely.


    As for the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture, he was not in a hurry. His destination was right in front of him, and he had more time now.


    He would obtain it after cultivating here for a few days.


    Although Zhou Feng was not in a hurry, the Human Emperor Ring was.


    The Human Emperor Ring, which was like a bluestone, showed its original appearance again.


    It was eager to fly to the core area.


    Zhou Feng thought that the Human Emperor Ring was too noisy, so he threw it into the storage ring


    Meanwhile¡­


    A five-colored altar with countless bones and blood sacrifices around it was in the core area of the mystic realm.


    It was eerily silent, evil, and strange!


    Suddenly, a remnant soul appeared on the altar.


    ¡°Why!? Why did you stop!?¡±


    It was an old man. His hair was flying in the air, but his face was as red as jade. There were no wrinkles at all.


    He exuded an unconcealable aura of decay. His lifeless eyes were like a black hole connected to a bottomless pit. One could not help but feel a chill down their spine.


    ¡°Come quickly! Come quickly!


    ¡°As long as you get here, you will be the next Human Emperor! ¡°The whole world will be at your disposal. All the races will be at your disposal!


    ¡°Come quickly!¡±


    Golden strings of destiny shot out of the old man¡¯s body and flew directly toward Zhou Feng, who was cultivating in the distance.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body had originally stored a lot of the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny.


    Now, the new golden strings of destiny fused with Zhou Feng¡¯s destiny and formed an illusionary flood dragon.


    The illusionary flood dragon of destiny instantly enveloped his mind.


    ¡°Come quickly! Come quickly!¡±


    A low demonic voice entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    ¡°You are the next Human Emperor! Breaking through to the Divine Ability realm is just a snap of the fingers!


    ¡°The world is yours to rule! The four seas are in your hands!¡±


    Like a performance, all kinds of low-pitched chants kept resounding in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes turned slightly red while his breathing began to quicken.


    However, he quickly regained his composure.


    ¡°There really is a conspiracy!¡¯


    After Zhou Feng adjusted his state of mind, he instantly heaved a sigh of relief.


    This was definitely a conspiracy. Zhou Feng had obtained many benefits for no reason, so he would not be at ease if something like that did not occur.


    However, since the conspiracy had appeared, there was no problem. As such, he took out the so-called Human Emperor Ring, exerted some force, and flung it!


    Soon, the low chants in his ears began to weaken.


    The voice was so weak that it could not affect his mind.


    ¡°Let¡¯s resume!¡±


    Zhou Feng let out a sigh of relief and continued cultivating.


    To be honest, he had been in a dangerous situation as his mind was almost affected.


    Fortunately, his soul was abnormally strong due to the passive Soul Harvesting.


    When Zhou Feng was about to be affected, he subconsciously opened the skill panel.


    When he saw the skill panel, he woke up.


    Then, his first reaction was to throw away the Human Emperor Ring.


    In fact, Zhou Feng¡¯s guess was very accurate. The Human Emperor¡¯s destiny alone could not affect Zhou Feng¡¯s mind or even his behavior.


    To be able to control the actions of a cultivator, how great would said destiny need to be?


    Unless the destiny of the entire Heavenly Dao was tilted toward one person, it would be challenging to rely on destiny to affect an individual.


    These were all things that Zhou Feng had read in the Daoist canons of Heavenly Star City.


    It was all thanks to Li Rong that he had managed to get his hands on said Daoist canons.


    There were cultivation techniques recorded in those Daoist canons, but there wasn¡¯t a lack of unorthodox knowledge.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng knew that something must be manipulating the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny.


    ¡®It really was destiny that turned into a rainbow just now! It actually pounced on me directly!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sighed in his heart.


    This was probably the first time he had seen so-called destiny turn into a rainbow and charge toward him.


    It was really exaggerated!

 Chapter 309 - The Ancient Times

    Chapter 309 The Ancient Times


    Zhou Feng was even more convinced that the so-called Human Emperor¡¯s heritage was a pit.


    It was even possible that the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny had not been cut off for so long. It was because countless successors to the Human Emperor had been emerging one after the other.


    The Human Emperor¡¯s descendants had disappeared for so long, so the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny couldn¡¯t last forever.


    There was no place for the destiny to reside. The destiny would only continue to dissipate.


    However, this did not hinder Zhou Feng¡¯s progress.


    Although it was a trap, the Human Emperor Scripture was real.


    As long as he was not greedy, he did not believe that anything could shake him.


    Even if he got into trouble because of it, it was nothing but trouble.


    Now that Zhou Feng had comprehended the Longevity Breathing Technique, coupled with the passive Bloodline Simulation, he thought that he could avoid most people¡¯s prying eyes.


    At the same time, he had no choice.


    Zhou Feng wanted to progress, so the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture was too important to him.


    Although the passive skills were his foundation, this cultivation technique was also indispensable.


    If his cultivation realm did not increase, it would be difficult to display the passive skills¡¯ might no matter how many he had.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng actually had no choice.


    Even though he knew that it was very dangerous ahead, he could only continue to move forward.


    ¡°It¡¯s almost time!¡± After cultivating for some time, Zhou


    some time, Zhou Feng switched to his human identity.


    SO


    After all, the time he spent in the mystic realm was limited. He couldn¡¯t waste any more time like this.


    When he switched to his human identity, the pressure in the surroundings immediately receded like a tide.


    Zhou Feng even felt some cheering around him.


    A large amount of Spiritual Qi began to drill into his body.


    This feeling was as if everyone expected it?


    This was the first time he had experienced such treatment.


    ¡°He¡¯s here! He¡¯s finally here!¡±


    The old madman on the altar immediately calmed down after sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s aura.


    He had been waiting for this moment for 1,000 years.


    If someone from the human race hadn¡¯t come, he probably wouldn¡¯t have been able to hold on for long.


    Perhaps in just a dozen years, the entire mystic realm would fall into the hands of the aquatic creatures.


    Zhou Feng passed through the core area.


    The restrictive power around him began to weaken, knowing that there was no Spiritual Qi around him.


    ¡°This is?¡±


    At that moment, he saw one altar with several stone tablets around it.


    One of the stone tablets recorded the Human Emperor Scripture that Zhou Feng had been dreaming of.


    It was even more authentic than the one he had obtained before.


    The Human Emperor Scripture that Zhou Feng had obtained from Heavenly Star City was the first half and a rough translation on top of that.


    0


    It was far from the original version.


    Unexpectedly, the Human Emperor Scripture on this stone tablet was not left behind by the first Human Emperor but by one that had succeeded him.


    The Human Emperor Scripture specifically referred to the cultivation technique of the Human Emperor, the strongest human of a generation.


    There were many Human Emperors in human history, so the Human Emperor Scripture was only a general statement.


    Every Human Emperor¡¯s cultivation path was different.


    Therefore, the Human Emperor Scripture that Zhou Feng had obtained was very likely to have been pieced together and was not a systematic one.


    The Human Emperor Scripture recorded on the stone tablet before him was different from what he had obtained previously.


    Some of the Human Emperor¡¯s achievements were recorded on the other stone tablets.


    Most of these stone tablets recorded the Human Emperor¡¯s attacks, but only a small part of his cultivation technique.


    ¡°Great Void¡­ This Human Emperor¡¯s name is Great Void?¡±


    The Great Void Emperor had been born in ancient times when the human forces had already reached the peak.


    The previous Human Emperor had fought against the Demons with his fists and kicked the aquatic tribes with his feet. He had fought in all directions.


    However, this had also been the beginning of the decline of spiritual items. In order to provide for the Human Emperors and their followers, God knew how many spiritual items had been plundered and how many places had been opened up.


    But this was only consumption without replenishment. No matter how many spiritual items there were, they were not enough for continuous consumption.


    Therefore, the Human Emperors began to optimize their cultivation techniques, abandoning the body-tempering method that consumed a lot of resources.


    Cultivating with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi became popular.


    Great Void was a well-known figure in that era. He had created his own cultivation art, the Great Void Primordial Art.


    He relied on the Great Void Primordial Art to step onto the throne of the Human Emperor step by step.


    The thing he had been most proud of was that he blew nine Demon Ancestors to death in one breath.


    This had directly caused the collapse of the Demon race and their gradual decline.


    This was written on one of the stone tablets.


    The stone tablet recorded the Great Void Primordial Art.


    There were even all kinds of supplementary methods to help the latecomers learn better.


    ¡°Great Void Primordial Art?¡±


    Although this was another Human Emperor Scripture, overall, he could cultivate it.


    Although each version of the Human Emperor Scripture differed, the foundation was the same, so switching to other versions of the Human Emperor Scripture was not a problem.


    There was a consequence, however. If the Human Emperor Scripture one cultivated was not the same version for each realm, the greater the hidden danger, the higher one¡¯s realm was.


    This would cause all kinds of bottlenecks and cloud one¡¯s comprehension ability.


    Therefore, as time went on, every Human Emperor would summarize the previous Human Emperor Scripture and create their own Human Emperor Scripture.


    If you didn¡¯t have the talent of the Human Emperor, you could create a new Human Emperor Scripture.


    Then you could only be stuck at a bottleneck and slowly die of old age.


    Speaking of which, someone might ask.


    What if you cultivated a complete Human Emperor Scripture?


    Actually, cultivating a complete Human Emperor Scripture was not a good choice either.


    Firstly, the Human Emperor Scripture itself was a backward cultivation technique.


    There were many more advanced and complete cultivation techniques nowadays.


    Secondly, if you cultivated a complete Human Emperor Scripture, it meant that you could only live in the shadow of others forever.


    After cultivating to the end, you could only be hung up and beaten by other heavens¡¯ favorites.


    Therefore, this was a path of no return.


    Since Zhou Feng had already chosen to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture, there was no way for him to retreat.


    ¡°I don¡¯t seem to have a choice¡­¡± He shrugged, not considering the consequences at all.


    Since Zhou Feng did not have much of a choice, he did not feel stressed. He just silently recorded the Great Void Primordial Art on the stone tablet.


    Just as he was silently recording, the surroundings began to change.


    Traces of a desolate and crazy aura began to fill the surroundings.


    ¡°For the humans! Die!¡±


    ¡°Behind us is our home! We have nowhere to retreat to!¡±


    ¡°You Demons, die!¡±


    Upon listening carefully, the cries of countless people and the sounds of battle echoed.


    It was as if the surroundings had returned to the primitive ancient times.


    Countless human martyrs fought with the myriad races in order to survive and protect their homeland.


    The kind of fighting for one¡¯s race and risking one¡¯s life instantly ignited the hot blood of every human.


    Zhou Feng was not immune to such a scene.


    His attention was completely diverted, and he began to immerse himself in the passionate and hot-blooded era.

 Chapter 310 - Two Old Madmen

    Chapter 310 Two Old Madmen


    As a human, seeing the passion of the sages in ancient times, it was extremely easy to be influenced and feel a sense of honor.


    Zhou Feng was currently in such a state.


    The ancient human race¡¯s spirit of resistance was not easy to be vanquished.


    They were able to defeat all the other races and become the only ruler of heaven and earth with an extremely ordinary talent under the presence of tens of thousands of races.


    Just as the atmosphere reached its peak, a figure appeared on the altar. ¡°Child! You¡¯re finally here!¡±


    The magnetic and thick voice entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    This sentence was filled with exhaustion and weakness.


    Zhou Feng looked at the figure in front of him and started to frown.


    Sure enough, things were not that simple.


    ¡°I know that you have countless questions in your heart. But now, please listen to me!¡±


    The remnant soul looked at Zhou Feng with a gratified gaze.


    It was like an old man looking at his own junior and naturally overflowing with gratification.


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng was also someone who did not like to talk much.


    He just quietly watched the performance of the remnant soul in front of him.


    Tas


    ¡°This was once the resting place of Human Emperor Great Void. Great Void left behind many treasures here.


    ¡°The most important one of them is the Great Void Primordial Art, which you just saw.


    ¡°As for the other treasures, there are only a few left because the aquatic tribes have ransacked the mystic realm.¡±


    The old madman began to slowly tell Zhou Feng stories, just like many years ago.


    First, he used the images of the past to stir up his blood.


    After gaining the initial trust, he would be able to make Zhou Feng completely trust him.


    The old madman had a wealth of experience in deceiving these young people.


    This was because these young people needed only a few things. The first was fame. Every young person had a heroic dream in their heart.


    When he was young, he had fantasized that he could save the world.


    ¡°If you hadn¡¯t come, this place would have been trampled on by the other races!


    ¡°Fortunately! God bless the human race!¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyelids and quietly watched the old madman¡¯s performance.


    ¡°I can feel the destiny of the Human Emperor in you!


    ¡°Child! Even if the road ahead is fraught with difficulties, are you willing to overcome all obstacles and difficulties to benefit the human race?¡±


    The old madman, who had already forgotten his own name, began to speak in a high-spirited tone.


    If one did not have some experience, many people would probably agree on the spot.


    After all, that slogan was so nice to hear! Moreover, it did not sound bad to him, only good!


    Wasn¡¯t it obvious that he wanted to hand over Great Void¡¯s heritage to him?


    He would definitely agree to it!


    As for whether or not he wanted to benefit the human race, he would first decide after obtaining the inheritance.


    Zhou Feng quietly looked at the old madman.


    The old madman revealed a trace of disappointment on his face as Zhou Feng remained silent.


    However, he did not say anything and only sighed.


    ¡°Indeed, the human heart is not ancient! The human race has been at peace for too long now. They have completely forgotten the honor of their ancestors!¡±


    That expression and that tone easily stirred up a person¡¯s emotions.


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly, but he still did not speak.


    On the other hand, the old madman thought that his words had worked.


    The old madman had seen countless human geniuses over the years. He had encountered all kinds of personalities, so he had all kinds of plans.


    In the end, Zhou Feng would not escape the hands of the old madman. He would became a puppet to continue the destiny of the Human Emperor.


    That¡¯s right! Just as Zhou Feng had guessed, almost every land of heritage was a trap.


    The last great sage of the human race had predicted that the human race would disappear in the future.


    Even the destiny of the Human Emperor would gradually disappear.


    Therefore, he had used all kinds of methods to maintain the destiny of the Human Emperor.


    As long as the destiny was still there, the human race would not be considered to have truly perished. The Human Heart Replacing the Heart of Heaven Method was one of the methods to deal with this issue.


    This method was also very simple. One would directly deposit the remaining Human Emperor¡¯s destiny onto a certain genius. The genius who the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny had blessed would indeed be able to turn misfortune into luck and have many fortuitous encounters.


    Their cultivation would rise like a rocket.


    Once one¡¯s strength increased and their cultivation rose, their destiny would become stronger.


    Because every breakthrough could be called defying the heavens and changing destiny, their destiny would become stronger as long as the breakthrough was successful. Theoretically speaking, those with strong destiny might not be strong, and those with weak destiny might not be weak.


    And when one reached the bottleneck, the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny would begin to collect debts.


    Since said person could no longer continue to strengthen their destiny, there would be no need for the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny to continue parasitizing.


    They would lose all their destiny and die with hatred in the end.


    This was a terrifying evil technique that the human race had obtained from a Demon.


    By using this method, the remaining Human Emperor¡¯s destiny could be preserved.


    Even so, in recent years, the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny had already declined beyond recognition.


    Even a Purple Mansion cultivator like Zhou Feng had become a target of plunder.


    One had to know that the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny wouldn¡¯t even be willing to parasitize a Divine Ability cultivator in the past.


    ¡°Forget it! Forget it! There¡¯s no need to shoulder the honor of the human race. You, junior, will do it!


    ¡°Great Void¡¯s last treasure is under the first stone tablet! Dig it out and leave!¡±


    The old madman seemed to have lost interest and only asked Zhou Feng to dig out the first stone tablet.


    He just needed to take away the treasure of Human Emperor Great Void.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s brows furrowed even more tightly.


    This did not mean that he believed the story of the remnant soul.


    It was that Zhou Feng could not stand it any longer and wanted to shut the remnant soul


    up.


    He was almost about to memorize the Great Void Primordial Art, but the old madman was talking non-stop.


    ¡°No! Don¡¯t listen to this Demon!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng¡¯s frown deepened, the situation suddenly changed.


    The kind-looking remnant soul suddenly became ferocious.


    The remnant soul¡¯s clothes were tattered at that moment, and two lines of bloody tears hung in its turbid old eyes.


    ¡°This is a Demon! Don¡¯t listen to him! The first stone tablet is the core of the formation!


    ¡°Once it is dug out, no one will be able to suppress this Demon!


    ¡°Hurry up! Seal this five-colored altar! Use the five-colored soil beside it!¡±


    ¡°You are the Demon! I didn¡¯t expect that you would still pester this old man after so many years!¡±


    The old madman suddenly turned into a schizophrenic and began to quarrel incessantly. It made it difficult to distinguish who was the good guy and who was the bad guy.


    When normal people encountered such a situation, they would naturally be confused.


    This was because they were saying their own things. It was not clear who was telling the truth.


    Moreover, during this process, these two remnant souls began to talk about some secret matters from ancient times.


    They wanted to prove that they were the good guy.


    It was very easy for people to sit on the fence and see who was the real one.


    However, this was the result that the old madman wanted.

 Chapter 311 - Why Did You Leave!?

    Chapter 311 Why Did You Leave!?


    In fact, regardless of whether Zhou Feng chose to help the old madman or not, the old madman¡¯s goal had already been achieved.


    He only needed Zhou Feng to remain near the altar.


    As long as Zhou Feng was near the altar, the old madman had the means to control Zhou Feng.


    But this required time!


    After a long slumber, the old madman¡¯s strength had been reduced to a limit.


    The space where he could move was near the altar.


    In a dimension that Zhou Feng was unable to perceive, his destiny soul was being bound by a golden dragon.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s destiny soul seemed to be exceptionally strong.


    It would be quite difficult for the golden dragon to bind Zhou Feng¡¯s destiny soul completely.


    ¡°Brat! If you still don¡¯t believe me, then listen carefully! What I¡¯m about to reveal next is the most advanced body-refining technique of the human race!¡±


    After a moment¡¯s struggle with the kindly old madman, The hideous old madman started throwing out the bait.


    One of the best body-refining techniques ever.


    This is not the same as the body-refining method recorded in the Human Emperor Scripture.


    This was another one, and the physical exercise effect is also very good.


    One had to throw out a certain amount of bait so that the prey could stay there willingly.


    The old madman was very familiar with this.


    To any cultivator, it didn¡¯t matter if this so-called body-refining technique was real or fake.


    After hearing this, their first reaction was probably to listen.


    Although this ancient cultivation technique was backward, its train of thought was worth pondering over.


    Self-created cultivation technique! This was something every heavens¡¯ favorite had to experience.


    In this world, there was no strongest cultivation technique.


    This was a conclusion reached after countless years of development.


    Therefore, every cultivation technique was beneficial to expand the train of thought of self-created cultivation techniques.


    ¡°This is the physical body to become a Paragon¡­ ¡°I am an Innate Sacred Spirit, hiding the essence of flesh and blood, the spirit of the four bones, the two hands are the heaven, the divine treasure, the two feet are the earth¡­¡±


    This was a cultivation technique a warrior of the human race had created after capturing an Innate Sacred Spirit and thoroughly studying it.


    The principle was to compare one¡¯s physical body to an Innate Sacred Spirit, accumulating strength in the beginning and transforming oneself into heaven and earth in the end.


    This way of thinking was different from most body-refining techniques.


    The most important core of this technique was to visualize the Innate Sacred Spirit that had disappeared for a long time.


    There was no falsehood in this technique, and one could completely cultivate it.


    Moreover, it did not have the harsh restrictions of the Human Emperor Scripture.


    ¡®Almost there!


    However, Zhou Feng did not wait for the old madman to finish speaking. He turned around without any hesitation and immediately left the core area.


    The Great Void Primordial Art was already firmly engraved in his mind, so the purpose of this trip had already been accomplished.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to consider other things. When facing a remnant soul that was once far stronger than him, Zhou Feng was not too confident that he could gain any advantage in front of such an old thing.


    Greed equaled death!


    Zhou Feng kept reminding himself in his heart, ¡®Never be greedy! Once you are greedy, you will have a weakness.¡¯


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not say a word. He just let the old madman put in all his effort and remained unmoved.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s receding figure, the old madman was utterly stunned.


    ¡®Why did he leave?¡¯


    What he was sharing just now was the best body-refining technique. Did he not want Great Void¡¯s heritage? That was a good thing that had been preserved since ancient times!


    The old madman did not speak nonsense. All the treasures that were preserved in this mystic realm were indeed under the first stone tablet.


    There was even a stalk of immortal medicine, a heaven-defying spiritual medicine that could prolong one¡¯s life.


    Why did he not want so many things?


    And why did he not say a word?


    As a human, did he not care about the secrets of the human race?


    ¡°The atmosphere just now was so good! Why did he leave!?¡¯


    The old madman had never encountered such a cold, emotionless person. He could not be called a human at all.


    ¡°Impossible! This must be a trick!¡±


    The old madman was an old monster who had lived for an unknown period of time.


    Under such circumstances, he believed that Zhou Feng was testing him. Hence, he went with the act of two old lunatics fighting each other.


    It was as if the two old lunatics were a part of the same body. It was difficult for people to believe that the two old lunatics were one.


    However, no one was watching this performance.


    Zhou Feng had already fled.


    ¡°No! Come back!¡±


    Sensing that Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had completely dissipated, the old lunatic instantly reacted.


    The opportunity he had been waiting for for so long had already slipped away.


    If he had known this would happen, he would have done his best to snatch Zhou Feng¡¯s body from the start instead of wasting his breath and performing for nothing.


    ¡°There¡¯s still a chance! There¡¯s still a chance!¡±


    The old madman did not want to continue like this. The old madman would die once Zhou Feng truly left this mystic realm.


    Therefore, the old madman made a crazy decision.


    He directly removed the control of this mystic realm, and the restrictive power in the core area instantly dissipated.


    At the same time, he took the golden destiny dragon and began to roar.


    A five-colored ray of light slowly rose.


    ¡°Eh? That¡¯s the core area! What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°Quickly go! A treasure has been born there!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? The restrictive power in the core area has dissipated?¡±


    Such a large change attracted the attention of the already impatient aquatic geniuses.


    No one had expected that a mere Daemon General could actually hide so well.


    They didn¡¯t even know how many days they had been searching, but they still couldn¡¯t find a single hair on Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    If this continued, Zhou Feng would leave the mystic realm and continue hiding in the Fifth Princess¡¯ room.


    At that time, their reputation would be completely lost.


    A few talented Daemon Kings actually couldn¡¯t find a little Angelfish General in a small mystic realm!?


    And just as they were fretting, that multicolored light attracted all the aquatic prodigies¡¯ attention.


    Especially when the restrictive power that permeated the core region began to dissipate.


    This caused the eyes of these prodigies to light up.


    This core region had actually been unsealed? The treasures within were about to come into being.


    As a result, all the aquatic geniuses in the mystic realm started approaching the core region.


    The major forces that had been observing the movements in the mystic realm were also the first to receive the news.


    ¡°Haha! My baby is finally born!¡±


    A rough voice sounded.


    Then, a mighty Daemon King tore through the space of the mystic realm and forced his way in.


    That¡¯s right! His speed was that fast!


    He had to grab the treasures before the Dragon Palace could react.


    All of a sudden, all kinds of strong auras filled the entire mystic realm.


    A mystic realm that was not completely under control had long been the major forces¡¯ target.


    Once something happened, it would be impossible to conceal it.


    ¡®There is indeed something strange!¡¯


    Looking at the place he had just left, Zhou Feng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.


    Fortunately, he was not too greedy.

 Chapter 312 - The Biggest Joke in the World!

    Chapter 312 The Biggest Joke in the World!


    Zhou Feng had just come out, and the core region had already undergone such a change.


    If this had nothing to do with him, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t believe it even if he was beaten to death.


    That remnant soul had clearly an ulterior purpose. It was very likely that it was acting just now so that Zhou Feng could stay. ¡®Creating such a ruckus now? It¡¯s definitely to attract me back!


    Zhou Feng felt that this was a good opportunity-an opportunity for him to slip away quietly.


    If it were just one person leaving the mystic realm, he would be teleported to the Dragon Palace.


    Then, he would leave the Southern Sea from the Dragon Palace. This was more or less difficult.


    But now, it was different. He could feel all kinds of powerful auras around him.


    As long as the situation was chaotic, he would slip away at the best opportunity.


    Boom!


    A loud sound suddenly echoed in the core area along with the five-colored ray of light.


    The entire mystic realm was trembling.


    Then, countless light rays flew out and began to land in various places in the mystic realm.


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­ a spiritual item! A dao artifact as well!?¡±


    ¡°Look! That spiritual herb! What a powerful aura of life!¡±


    ¡°Hurry up and snatch it!¡±


    The spiritual items that looked like the flying rocks of an erupting volcano were scattered all over the place.


    The eyes of the surrounding aquatic creatures instantly turned red.


    These were all good things! Especially that golden ray of light¡ªthat powerful aura was definitely from a dao artifact!


    And that powerful aura of life. Could it be the legendary immortal medicine?


    Madness! The entire mystic realm descended into madness!


    Suddenly, the situation changed again.


    The sky of the mystic realm began to crack open, clouds and mist billowed, and killing intent permeated the area.


    ¡°These things belong to the Dragon Palace! All the aquatic creatures, get out of the mystic realm for this sovereign!¡±


    Ao Lie¡¯s domineering voice spread throughout the entire mystic realm.


    It turned out that Ao Lie had received the news.


    He immediately brought his troops and forcefully broke into the mystic realm to take everything for himself.


    Although only a few dozen aquatic creatures entered the mystic realm with Ao Lie, all of them were at least at the Daemon General rank.


    Everyone had many spiritual artifacts on their bodies. The murderous aura that gathered together was so strong that no aquatic creature within the mystic realm could not raise their heads.


    ¡°Ao Lie! Do you think that we are afraid of you? Your true dragon fling has long since left the Southern Sea!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! If it weren¡¯t for that true dragon, do you think that you would be able to become the Dragon Sovereign!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s impossible for you to take all these things by yourself!¡±


    Countless cracks also opened up in another direction.


    A large number of aquatic creatures entered the mystic realm.


    The same concentrated killing intent pressed down on the mystic realm, making it creak.


    Obviously, these were Ao Lie¡¯s enemies.


    The Southern Sea was vast, so how could a mere Flood Dragon rule the four directions.


    Ao Lie had managed to establish the Dragon Palace largely because of Ao Shan¡¯s mother.


    She caused the other old monsters of the aquatic tribes not to dare to show themselves.


    Now that so many treasures had appeared, Ao Lie could not take them all for himself.


    If Ao Lie took them all for himself, then the position of Dragon Sovereign might be confirmed.


    Perhaps many of the aquatic creatures did not expect it.


    The Southern Sea, which had been calm for a long time, suddenly erupted with battles!


    This mystic realm was like a fuse that ignited the conflict between the various aquatic tribes in the Southern Sea.


    This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was somewhat dumbstruck.


    ¡®How did such a large-scale battle suddenly start?¡¯


    There were so many experts!


    It was tough to predict the affairs of the world.


    But this was also good. It was more convenient for him to escape.


    Zhou Feng tried his best to hide his aura. He wanted to sneak into those spatial cracks and escape.


    This was the safest way.


    He did not want to use the token in his hand to leave this mystic realm directly. Before Zhou Feng entered this mystic realm, Ao Shan had given him a token.


    As long as the time was up or the situation was not right, he could crush the token immediately. Then he would be teleported to the teleportation array of the Dragon Palace instantly.


    Still, Zhou Feng did not want to be teleported to the Dragon Palace.


    It was challenging to leave the Dragon Palace with an unfamiliar identity, after all.


    Initially, according to his plan, he wanted to kill a few aquatic prodigies in the mystic realm.


    Those aquatic prodigies had entered the mystic realm through another method. As long as Zhou Feng killed those aquatic prodigies, he would be able to imitate the bloodline of the aquatic prodigies.


    In the end, leaving the mystic realm would be much safer than returning to the Dragon Palace.


    But now that it had become like this, it couldn¡¯t be better.


    Once the two sides started fighting, no one would pay attention to Zhou Feng.


    Logically speaking, Zhou Feng¡¯s plan was highly feasible.


    But there were always accidents!


    A five-colored ray of light that exuded a strong aura of vitality flew straight toward Zhou Feng


    A stalk of spirit herb that seemed to be the immortal medicine rushed toward him.


    Wasn¡¯t this putting him on fire to roast?


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t hesitate and grabbed this immortal medicine.


    Then, he used all his strength and threw the immortal medicine toward Ao Lie.


    Ao Lie naturally wouldn¡¯t be like Zhou Feng but instead grabbed the immortal medicine.


    ¡°This is!? The immortal medicine!¡±


    Ao Lie felt the Blood Qi in his body boil with just a sniff.


    His originally aged body faintly became lively.


    This was definitely the legendary immortal medicine!


    Even if it wasn¡¯t the legendary immortal medicine, it had the effect of prolonging one¡¯s life.


    ¡°Ao Lie! Hand over the immortal medicine!¡±


    The last trace of rationality on both sides directly disappeared because of this immortal medicine.


    This was an immortal medicine!


    Not to mention Divine Ability experts, even Dragon Transformation experts couldn¡¯t get their hands on this divine item!


    Now that it actually appeared in such a place, they would be letting themselves down if they didn¡¯t snatch it.


    What Dragon King? What revenge? None of this was important.


    What was important was to get the immortal medicine.


    As for Zhou Feng? These aquatic experts who only had eyes for the immortal medicine instantly forgot about him.


    ¡°No! This is the immortal medicine! A divine item that can extend one¡¯s lifespan! Why are you so cowardly!?


    ¡°There¡¯s actually such a human in this world!?¡±


    The old madman personally witnessed Zhou Feng hurl the immortal medicine without reluctance.


    The entire remnant soul almost collapsed because this was his last chance.


    He had given up on the entire mystic realm and used the immortal medicine as bait to lure Zhou Feng into falling for it.


    As long as Zhou Feng brought the immortal medicine with him, the old madman would have succeeded in his first step.


    This was because the immortal medicine contained a trace of the old madman¡¯s soul.


    As long as Zhou Feng brought it with him, he would not be able to escape from the old madman¡¯s grasp.


    This was actually a dangerous move. Using the immortal medicine as an item to store one¡¯s soul was extremely dangerous.


    If one was not careful, their soul might be destroyed.


    At the same time, he gave this immortal medicine to someone else. One had to know that this immortal medicine was the old madman¡¯s capital to reconstruct his body.


    If it were gone, it would be difficult for him to reconstruct his body for the rest of his life.


    However, the old madman¡¯s own plan failed at the first step.


    In this world, there was a cultivator who was unmoved by the immortal medicine!


    What a joke! This was simply the biggest joke in the world!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s performance just now didn¡¯t even have the slightest bit of hesitation. He directly threw it away.


    This throw immediately cut off all of the old madman¡¯s thoughts.


    Actually, Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts were also very simple.


    What immortal medicine or longevity medicine? These things were all hot potatoes to him.


    He hadn¡¯t even reached the Divine Ability realm.


    He simply couldn¡¯t guard such a divine object. Moreover, his innate divine ability was Longevity.


    He had also comprehended the Longevity Breathing Technique and even had the passive Longevity.


    His lifespan would be very long, so he did not need to consider extending his lifespan at all.


    Carrying such a thing would only make him die faster.


    Now that he had obtained Human Emperor Great Void¡¯s Great Void Primordial Art, he did not need anything else.


    The skill panel was Zhou Feng¡¯s greatest reliance. He did not need anything else.

 Chapter 313 - Running Away After Stirring up Trouble was Exciting

    Chapter 313 Running Away After Stirring up Trouble was Exciting


    Ao Lie and the other experts fought for the immortal medicine in this small mystic realm.


    And this time, neither side backed down.


    After all, it was a genuine immortal medicine.


    Besides prolonging one¡¯s life, there were many other effects of the immortal medicine.


    For example, transforming one¡¯s body into a dragon. That kind of special long-living substance could effectively transform one¡¯s body.


    It would be even easier to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    These Daemon King bigshots were all stuck at the peak of the Daemon King rank.


    Almost all of them wanted to take a step forward, but they didn¡¯t have enough talent.


    If they couldn¡¯t comprehend the intent of transforming into a dragon, they could transform their physical body from zero.


    The Dragon Transformation realm was really like a mortal transforming into a dragon.


    The difficulty was extremely difficult in a barren land like the Southern Border.


    There were only a few powerful Dragon Transformation experts.


    Every true demonic beast with the potential to transform into a dragon would almost always choose to leave the Southern Border.


    After that, they would head to the Central Plains and Eastern Land. Only the prosperous Central Plains and Eastern Land were the holy lands for cultivators.


    The Central Plains and Eastern Land were not only filled with spiritual objects but there were also all sorts of cave abodes and spiritual mountains.


    They were filled with treasures from ancient times.


    At the same time, there were also the most monstrous prodigies who could communicate with each other.


    There was not even a suitable opponent in such a remote and desolate place like the Southern Border. There was no pressure at all, so it was difficult for them to improve.


    Ao Lie and the other aquatic creatures launched a shocking attack. The terrifying power was like the nine heavens and the Milky Way, and the vast spiritual power swept in all directions.


    An indescribable feeling of terror pressed down on everyone¡¯s heart.


    But all of this had nothing to do with Zhou Feng.


    Taking advantage of the attention of all the aquatic creatures being diverted, he slipped into a spatial crack at the side.


    His intuition told him that he had to leave immediately.


    Otherwise, there would be great danger. That great invisible fear forced him not to stay for a second longer.


    If he continued to stay in this mystic realm, he would really die.


    Would Ao Lie be able to obtain the immortal medicine so easily? After all, things like the immortal medicine were just too dreamy.


    Just as Zhou Feng had just left this mystic realm, he could faintly hear Ao Lie¡¯s miserable cries.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    ¡°Who are you! Why did you come out of there!?¡±


    Zhou Feng, who had just emerged from the spatial rift, was facing an army of aquatic creatures.


    However, there was only one Daemon King in the lead, while the others were all at the Daemon Generals.


    ¡°Something has happened to the mystic realm!¡±


    Zhou Feng appeared very calm as he simply said these words.


    Then, the Blood Qi in his body suddenly exploded, knocking away the aquatic creatures that were surrounding this place.


    ¡°General! The teleportation formation has been shut down!¡±


    ¡°What?! Hurry up and open the teleportation formation again!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng stepped out of the mystic realm, the teleportation formation they maintained was forced to close.


    The aquatic creatures didn¡¯t have time to chase after Zhou Feng this time.


    They had to open the teleportation formation again as soon as possible.


    Otherwise, the Chieftains would be killed in the mystic realm.


    This sudden chaos allowed Zhou Feng to escape easily.


    Because the teleportation formation had to be opened near the mystic realm, Zhou Feng was still near the Dragon Palace.


    He did not stop and switched to another identity.


    In order to better conceal his identity, he washed off the two bloodlines he had simulated before and replaced them with the other two.


    Then, he combined them with the Longevity Breathing Technique.


    No aquatic creatures found anything unusual along the way.


    Zhou Feng found an abandoned underwater mansion after he was far enough away from the Dragon Palace.


    He immediately went in and took out a Water Repellent Bead, which he had obtained from the Dragon Palace.


    As long as he took it out, he could separate the seawater.


    Zhou Feng planned to rest first. There were too many things that had happened during this period.


    He needed to straighten it out, and then he realized that Big Yellow had been locked up for a long time. The hound was dispirited, and he had to let it out for some fresh air.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s departure did not cause any ripples.


    But at this time, the mystic realm was filled with heavy casualties.


    The old madman went crazy when he sensed that Zhou Feng had left!


    It was impossible for the destiny of the Human Emperor to temporarily stay with the other races.


    The myriad races themselves had the protection of destiny, so they would do everything to devour the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny.


    In that case, the aquatic creatures in the mystic realm would not be able to escape.


    The immortal medicine instantly turned into a deadly poison that could not be reversed.


    Ao Lie was caught off guard and was directly infected with this deadly poison.


    Then, there were all kinds of spirit items and spiritual artifacts that were emitting precious light.


    All of them had changed, and almost all of them were the remnant souls of the warriors of the human race.


    The final roar of the human warriors filled the mystic realm.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    ¡°Die!¡±


    ¡°Kill! For His Majesty!¡±


    The remnant souls were terrifying, even if they were remnant souls. This was the remnant souls¡¯ final battle, and they were fighting against non-human opponents, so they burst with unimaginable power.


    Soon, numerous Daemon Kings died, and the aquatic experts who came later were also unable to resist.


    As for Ao Lie, after getting poisoned, he chose to retreat at the first moment.


    However, he was not in good condition. The poison that was disguised as an immortal medicine was overbearing.


    It caused Ao Lie to lose a pile of scales, and it was also continuously corroding his body.


    Chaos!


    The Southern Sea, which had been stable for a long time, was instantly thrown into chaos!


    The Dragon Palace had fallen out with the other major forces, and the remnant souls of the human warriors had killed countless Daemon Kings.


    One side had to take the blame for such a loss.


    Obviously, both sides intended to let the other side take the blame, and a great war was inevitable.


    As for the instigator of this chaotic storm, Zhou Feng hid in a water mansion and slowly tidied himself up.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Eat quickly! After you eat, you¡¯ll have to go back in the bag and stay for a while!¡±


    Zhou Feng took out a large number of Spirit Stones and fed them to Big Yellow.


    The originally dispirited Big Yellow became energetic, and its tail wagged like a helicopter.


    However, after hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s words, the hound lowered its head again.


    Clearly, Big Yellow didn¡¯t want to stay in the spiritual pet bag anymore.


    ¡°Alright! I¡¯ll leave here in a while! Then you can always stay outside!¡± Zhou Feng was quite concerned about his first pet.


    But because of the environment, he could only comfort it like this for now.


    He also needed to think about how to strengthen Big Yellow in the future.


    At the very least, he needed to make Big Yellow have the strength of a Spirit General (Purple Mansion realm).


    Otherwise, Big Yellow would only be a burden, not support.


    To strengthen one¡¯s combat strength, apart from increasing one¡¯s own strength, spirit pets, spiritual artifacts, and other things would also enhance one¡¯s combat strength.


    In these aspects, he couldn¡¯t fall behind.


    Although Big Yellow was very unhappy, it could only accept it upon hearing this.


    It directly swallowed all the Spirit Stones in front of it in a vengeful manner. Such a large amount of Spirit Stones was beneficial to a Mountain Spirit Hound like Big Yellow as they could increase its strength quickly.


    After feeding Big Yellow, Zhou Feng also began to plan his future path.


    Now that he had the method to break through to the Divine Ability realm, it was impossible for him to continue staying in the Southern Sea.


    He needed to find a place to try and break through to the Divine Ability realm.

 Chapter 314 - Revision! New Passive Skill!

    Chapter 314 Revision! New Passive Skill!


    Originally, according to Zhou Feng¡¯s own cultivation path, he had a short-term goal.


    That was to first cultivate to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    Moreover, he would find the second half of the Human Emperor Scripture during this process.


    Under normal circumstances, this process should have been quite long.


    Given his aptitude, and if there was no fortuitous encounter, he would be stuck for at least 10 years in each level if he wanted to cultivate to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    Actually, he also had his own thoughts.


    Previously, he had used less than a year due to various reasons.


    He had accomplished what other cultivators would need tens of years to do so.


    This kind of terrifying leap still needed to be stopped.


    In any case, now that his life was no longer in danger, his innate divine ability still allowed him to live a long life.


    There was no need for him to be anxious at all.


    Unfortunately, things often didn¡¯t go as one wished.


    Zhou Feng had taken a stroll around the Southern Sea, and his cultivation base also soared up like a rocket.


    In the blink of an eye, he had reached the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm.


    Moreover, because he had borrowed the power of the Dragon Gate, he had even entered a state of sudden enlightenment.


    His control over his own strength was still extremely perfect.


    There were no side effects of his cultivation base rising too quickly.


    Under such circumstances, Zhou Feng had to start setting small goals again.


    ¡°Divine Ability realm¡­ I need to comprehend a divine ability and then use the power of the divine ability to cleanse my soul¡­


    ¡°The first divine ability I must cultivate is my innate divine ability!¡±


    Zhou Feng began to recall all the details regarding the Divine Ability realm. Regarding how to break through to the Divine Ability realm, he had already understood it in his heart.


    The most crucial thing was to comprehend a divine ability.


    As long as one comprehended a divine ability, they would be able to transform the spiritual power in one¡¯s body into the divine power.


    In turn, one would be able to use divine power to cleanse their soul and complete the transformation.


    After the soul transformed, one would be able to truly use a divine ability.


    As for innate divine ability, it wasn¡¯t considered a divine ability but just the embryonic of a divine ability.


    He needed to continue to develop and comprehend them.


    However, Zhou Feng did not have any inheritance, nor did he have any elders to teach him.


    It was simply too difficult to comprehend a divine ability that was related to longevity.


    Hence, he only had one choice at the moment, and that was to comprehend the Great Void Primordial Art that he had just obtained.


    This was the technique that the Human Emperor Great Void had been proud of.


    However, the difficulty of cultivating it was also extremely great.


    ¡°Comprehend the will of the great void? What exactly does the great void mean?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned.


    If he could not comprehend the will of the great void, he could only follow the cultivation technique.


    Every day, he would use his soul to roam the void and comprehend a trace of the true meaning of the great void.


    This was a shortcut that Human Emperor Great Void gave his descendants.


    After all, the human cultivators could not all be overflowing with talent.


    They needed some techniques that stupid people could cultivate back then.


    Human Emperor Great Void did not want his unique technique to be lost.


    Thus, he had created a method to travel through the great void.


    At a specific time every day, one could allow their soul to travel through great void and comprehend a trace of the true meaning of great void.


    As long as one had some talent, they could barely enter the rudiments with the accumulation of days and months.


    ¡°Also, if I can obtain the Whale King Musk to assist in soul travel, the entry speed will be several times faster!¡±


    Zhou Feng recalled the contents of the stone tablet bit by bit.


    Whale King Musk! This was an extremely precious supplementary mystical material.


    It could only be obtained from a Megakiller Whale King. The effect of soul travel in the great void would be much better with this.


    There were also substitutes, the Sanji Incense, the aura of humanity¡­


    Zhou Feng only knew the first one, but he didn¡¯t know the rest.


    Other than these, there was also a method written on one of the stone tablets: finding a place with good feng shui and carrying out soul travel.


    The effect would be much better.


    ¡°Troublesome¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed.


    He couldn¡¯t get any of these things.


    Still, it would take him decades to get started with his talent and without the help of these


    things.


    Thus, he had to go to the core area of the Southern Border to try his luck.


    It was impossible for him to get these things in a border city like Heavenly Star City.


    Or, if it really didn¡¯t work, he could only try to go to the Central Plains or the Eastern Land.


    He had to find a new divine ability to cultivate.


    Although he had said earlier that his only choice was to cultivate the Great Void Primordial Art.


    But if it was really difficult to get started, he could also find other simple beginner divine abilities.


    No matter what, he had to break through to the Divine Ability realm first.


    ¡°The core area of the Southern Border! Then I can only continue east! It¡¯s near the Eastern Land and the Central Plains!¡±


    The core area of the Southern Border was also the place with the most cultivators in the entire Southern Border.


    There were all sorts of geniuses and evildoers there, ready to enter the Central Plains and the Eastern Land at any time to compete with the other geniuses and temper themselves.


    There, three holy lands were the most powerful forces on the Southern Border.


    Zhou Feng had learned all this information when he was in Heavenly Star City.


    For the ambitious cultivators of the Southern Border, the final destination was only the three holy lands.


    ¡°It seems that if I want to break through to the Divine Ability realm, I have to go to one of the holy lands!¡±


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment.


    If a person were to slowly hide and cultivate, that would definitely be turtle speed.


    Rather than that, it would be better to choose a holy land directly and then head there to try his luck.


    What if he could find the good stuff recorded on the stone tablet?


    Moreover, there were all sorts of talented cultivators there, which was beneficial to his own training


    If he hid and cultivated slowly by himself¡­


    Even the speed of acquiring passive skills would slow down.


    Only by constantly changing his destiny and doing things continuously could he increase the speed of acquiring passive skills.


    Zhou Feng had already verified this matter.


    ¡°Alright! Then we¡¯ll go to the Jade Sword Holy Land next!¡±


    Zhou Feng finalized his plan.


    After he was done with his preparations, he would head straight for the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land was one of the three holy lands in the Southern Border, famous for its Sword Dao.


    The holy land was basically filled with sword cultivators, and it was also the one with the best reputation among the three holy lands.


    As for the specific situation, he would have to see it first.


    Zhou Feng had only read about it in some records in Heavenly Star City.


    ¡°I¡¯ve done many things, so I should be able to draw passive skills now!¡±


    He had changed the destiny of so many people before, so the skill panel should have harvested a lot of destiny power.


    The progress bar was probably full!


    Zhou Feng opened the skill panel and took a look.


    Sure enough, everything was as he had guessed.


    Because he had changed the destinies of countless aquatic creatures, the skill panel had collected an immense amount of destiny power.


    The progress bar was full!


    He had just drawn a passive skill not long ago, yet he could draw another passive skill now.


    ¡°Just keep this pace! I¡¯ll draw a passive skill every few days! This way, I¡¯ll soon be able to have myriads of passive skills!¡±


    Speaking of the passive skill, he was instantly energized.


    No matter when, he would draw a new passive skill.


    This would always make him energized and his blood boil.


    ¡°Begin drawing!¡± ¡°Drawing¡­¡± ¡°Drawing successful!¡±

 Chapter 315 - Capture Him And Make Him My Husband

    Chapter 315 Capture Him And Make Him My Husband


    Battle Experience: When you fight the same enemy multiple times, your damage increase, and damage reduction increase by 25%.


    Every time you fight, you gain a 5% increase. (Max: 5 stacks)


    ¡°Battle Experience! Fighting the same enemy multiple times¡­¡±


    Looking at this new passive skill, Zhou Feng felt that it was not too bad.


    At least it was useful, and it could be used against many people.


    In other words, as long as he was not killed, Zhou Feng would have a natural advantage in the next battle.


    Moreover, his advantage would become greater and greater with each additional battle.


    This could actually be considered a very abnormal passive skill.


    As long as five layers were stacked, the highest damage increase and damage reduction would be 25%.


    The enemy would not be able to withstand such a terrifying increase in damage.


    At that time, he did not need to do anything fancy. He just needed to crush them with pure strength.


    ¡°I¡¯m getting stronger and stronger!¡±


    After Zhou Feng finished analyzing the passive skill, he felt even more powerful.


    Even if Zhou Feng¡¯s talent was mediocre and his normal attributes were ordinary, each passive skill contributed to increasing his strength. Thus, even if he was not considered strong, he was not weak when fighting against other cultivators.


    Thinking about it carefully, he could not even remember how many passive skills he had.


    Zhou Feng could still remember them when he had a 10 or 20.


    Once he had more than 20, his memory began to blur.


    Zhou Feng also began to adjust his aura with the new passive skill in hand.


    With the help of the Longevity Breathing Technique that he had comprehended by himself, he adjusted his physical body to its optimal state.


    Due to the previous rough cultivation and the lack of guidance, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was in a mess. Although he had fixed those issues with the Human Emperor Scripture¡¯s help, there were still many flaws. Now, he took advantage of this opportunity to solve these small problems.


    He would also go on a mental tour of the great void to experience the situation of the great void.


    If he was lucky enough to comprehend the true meaning of the great void all of a sudden, he would be able to step into the Divine Ability realm directly.


    Zhou Feng was free from the cage and planned his own path of cultivation.


    Meanwhile¡­


    The Dragon Palace was in a mess.


    Ao Lie¡¯s strength had suddenly dropped because of the poison in his body, so he entered seclusion and could not come out.


    The big tribes that had entered the mystic realm did not get any benefits. They had even caused the mystic realm to collapse, turning into ruins.


    It was worthless!


    Although the old madman had plans for Zhou Feng, he was still a human.


    Moreover, he was a successor of the Human Emperor. He couldn¡¯t leave any benefits for another race.


    He would rather destroy all of them than leave them to the other races.


    Therefore, the aquatic tribes, including the Dragon Palace, did not get any benefits, but they also suffered heavy losses.


    In addition, they had lost Ao Lie¡¯s military suppression.


    The Dragon Palace could no longer suppress the situation at once and was directly surrounded by the Chieftains of the major aquatic tribes.


    There was a small interlude before such a huge event.


    That was that Zhou Feng, who had shocked everyone at the Dragon Gate Festival, had actually disappeared!


    He had disappeared into the mystic realm, and only traces of his aura could be found.


    According to reasonable speculation, the small fish had most likely been affected and died during the battle between the Daemon Kings. Most of the aquatic creatures were naturally very happy with Zhou Feng¡¯s death.


    If such a competitor died, wouldn¡¯t it mean that the other aquatic creatures had a shot at the Fifth Princess again?


    The Dragon Palace was in a precarious situation now, so Ao Shan was like a hot cake without Ao Lie¡¯s protection!


    In this regard, they could only say that Zhou Feng had a good death! Still, Ao Shan found it difficult to accept. ¡°Dead? Impossible! It¡¯s impossible for Zhou Feng to die! That little fish is so afraid of death!¡±


    When Ao Shan heard this, her first reaction was that Zhou Feng was not dead.


    Although she had only spent a short amount of time with Zhou Feng, Ao Shan still understood Zhou Feng¡¯s mentality and personality.


    Zhou Feng may seem crazy when he fought, but Ao Shan felt that he cherished his life very much.


    He was not the kind of reckless person who would fight recklessly.


    Furthermore, he must have relied on numerous cultivation resources to cultivate to such an extent with such an ordinary bloodline.


    An ordinary bloodline, almost no backer, and numerous cultivation resources¡ªwith so many factors added together, Zhou Feng could be considered a kind-hearted but black-hearted master.


    He must have made many underhanded moves.


    Would such a figure die in the aftermath of the battle?


    This was simply an insult! It even insulted Ao Shan herself.


    One had to know that Ao Shan and Zhou Feng¡¯s battle results were neck and neck. ¡°Fifth Princess! That¡¯s the truth!¡±


    ¡°Fifth Princess, you should think about what you should do now! The Dragon Sovereign¡­¡±


    Seeing Ao Shan¡¯s angry appearance, the others naturally didn¡¯t dare to talk back.


    But in their eyes, Zhou Feng was 100% dead.


    Even the old Dragon Sovereign had been poisoned in that mystic realm. It wasn¡¯t strange for a mere Angelfish General to die.


    ¡®That¡¯s not right! That Zhou Feng doesn¡¯t have the Angelfish bloodline at all! He¡¯s taking advantage of this opportunity to slip away!


    ¡®No wonder he bade me farewell before entering the mystic realm!


    ¡®But why is he leaving? The identity of being the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace is so attractive¡­¡¯


    Ao Shan didn¡¯t care what those servants were thinking


    Instead, she began to speculate in her heart.


    She had gone to see her father long ago, even though he was indeed poisoned.


    However, given the Dragon Palace¡¯s accumulated treasures, it was not impossible to treat him. Ao Shan could even use her true dragon blood to help her father detoxify the poison when necessary.


    Therefore, her father was just pretending to be weak.


    Even the big tribes guessed that Ao Lie was pretending


    Would Ao Lie, who had dominated the Southern Sea for so many years, be so weak?


    But even if they knew that Ao Lie was faking it, the big tribes had no choice but to make a move.


    Anyway, they had wanted to make a move long ago. The true dragon bloodline was too tempting.


    Now was definitely a great opportunity. If Ao Lie¡¯s strength was declining, and he did not show his cards, then when would he show his cards?


    Ao Shan did not pay much attention to the commotion outside the Dragon Palace.


    All she could currently think about was why Zhou Feng had taken the opportunity to slip away.


    ¡°There is definitely no better place in the Southern Sea than the Dragon Palace for a normal aquatic creature to cultivate¡­


    ¡®A normal aquatic creature¡­ Wait a minute! Could it be that Zhou Feng is not an aquatic creature but just a disguise!?¡¯


    The intuition of a true dragon allowed Ao Shan to see through everything.


    If Zhou Feng was not an aquatic creature, then faking his death to escape was clear.


    If he did not take this opportunity to escape, Zhou Feng would not have had such a good opportunity to escape.


    ¡®No wonder! Zhou Feng has always been interested in human things! So he¡¯s a human pretending to be an aquatic creature!¡¯


    It was all connected! Everything was connected!


    Ao Shan might not have cared about so many details when Zhou Feng was around.


    But after Zhou Feng left, all these details were connected. Only this could perfectly explain Zhou Feng¡¯s actions.


    Not to mention the fact that he wasn¡¯t afraid of her true dragon pressure during the battle and even dared to attack.


    ¡®Hmph! Do you think that you can escape from me just because you¡¯re a human? Sooner or later, I¡¯ll capture you and bring you back to bed!


    ¡®Zhou Feng! Just you wait!¡¯


    Ao Shan clenched her small white hand and made a decision in her heart.


    She had already decided that Zhou Feng was her husband. So what if he was a human?


    Her mother was a true dragon, but she still found her father, an ordinary snake.


    As long as she was strong enough, any human or aquatic creature would not be a problem.


    At worst, she could just snatch them back.


    Ao Shan grew up in a cruel environment, so she understood she could overcome any difficulty as long as she was strong enough.

 Chapter 316 - Free Bird in the Sky!

    Chapter 316 Free Bird in the Sky!


    Zhou Feng did not know that the situation of the entire Southern Sea¡¯s aquatic tribes had changed drastically because of him.


    Ao Shan had even deduced his true identity.


    To be honest, the passive Bloodline Simulation and Underwater Breathing were too useful.


    This had caused Zhou Feng to be relaxed most of the time. Some of his actions and behaviors were no different from those on land.


    In addition, Zhou Feng¡¯s goal was too obvious. He was gunning for the Human Emperor¡¯s heritage in the mystic realm.


    As long as one was careful enough, they could discover many details from it.


    Anyway, Ao Shan had engraved Zhou Feng in her heart.


    Ao Shan decided to capture Zhou Feng and bring him back to the Dragon Palace after her cultivation increased.


    If Ao Shan couldn¡¯t find Zhou Feng, she would go and find¡­ her mother.


    With the bloodline connection between true dragons, if Ao Shan asked her mother to find a human, it shouldn¡¯t be a difficult thing.


    Of course, the changes in the Southern Sea had nothing to do with Zhou Feng.


    He was about to leave the Southern Sea and go to the Jade Sword Holy Land, one of the three holy lands of the Southern Border.


    ¡°Failed¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng slowly opened his closed eyes.


    He had tried to use the Great Void Primordial Art to conduct a great void soul travel.


    He used this to comprehend the great void¡¯s true meaning and cultivate the Great Void Primordial Art.


    Unfortunately, he utterly failed!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul seemed to wander into the void.


    There was only emptiness, silence, and nothingness in that void.


    The passage of time did not seem to exist. Zhou Feng did not know how long he had stayed in this state.


    In any case, he only felt that his soul was frozen.


    His thoughts moved extremely slowly. He could not even wait to come back to his senses.


    The soul journey to the great void had already passed.


    Not only did he not comprehend anything, but he had also consumed a large amount of his soul power.


    It was only because his soul power was sufficiently strong now, or else he would have just used up a large amount of soul power.


    He would probably have to lie down for a few months.


    ¡°This soul travel to the great void can¡¯t be done every day!¡±


    Zhou Feng sensed his nascent soul.


    He discovered that his nascent soul, which was sitting upright on the Soul Altar, was now much dimmer.


    If he were to forcefully soul travel to the great void a few more times, he might not be able to hold on for the time being.


    Zhou Feng also discovered that even though he had all sorts of passive abilities that recovered physical injuries, he didn¡¯t have anything that healed the soul.


    This was an old problem. Zhou Feng had encountered this problem in the past.


    Now, he had encountered it again.


    Also, wasn¡¯t his aptitude a little too low!?


    If he remembered correctly, he had read on the stone tablet that recorded the deeds of Human Emperor Great Void that the first he entered the great void, he not only comprehended the true meaning of the great void but even attracted the monsters in the great void because his soul was too powerful.


    Great Void even killed the monsters in the void and obtained void essence, further comprehending the true meaning of the great void.


    Even the Human Emperors¡¯ descendants could enter the rudiments after seven or eight soul travels.


    Those with less aptitude would be able to enter the rudiments after more than ten soul travels with the help of spiritual items.


    However, Zhou Feng felt that even if he had the help of various spiritual items, it would be difficult for him to enter the rudiments after more than ten soul travels.


    ¡°At least, my soul is slightly more condensed¡­¡±


    Faced with such a huge disparity in aptitude, Zhou Feng could only find a benefit to comfort himself.


    Although soul travel was very severe for the consumption of soul power, there was still one benefit.


    That was that the soul would become more solid. Simply put, the soul would become more tenacious.


    When faced with soul attacks, the resistance would be higher.


    After the Divine Ability realm, the bonus period of having a strong physical body was also about to end.


    This was because the Divine Ability realm was all about using the nascent soul to comprehend the laws of the world.


    Having a powerful physical body at the front might give one an advantage, but said advantage would be greatly reduced in the Divine Ability realm.


    On the contrary, the advantage of a person with a powerful nascent soul would be infinitely magnified.


    Zhou Feng had to be mentally prepared.


    However, having a powerful physical body would gain you the upper hand at the later stages of cultivation.


    This was a cycle until he reached the peak of his cultivation. Both his physical body and soul would reach the peak.


    ¡°Spirit Stones, pills, medicinal herbs, and ores¡­ I have to consider these again!¡±


    Zhou Feng packed up and prepared to leave the Southern Sea.


    He would head to the Jade Sword Holy Land, which meant that he would need a large number of cultivation resources.


    This was a very realistic problem.


    His storage ring was almost empty. The Spirit Stones and resources he had collected from the Tri-Gu Sect and other places were gone.


    It really was as the old saying went, ¡°One won¡¯t know if they don¡¯t look, but when one looks, they will be shocked.¡±


    Up until now, Zhou Feng had never been trapped by cultivation resources.


    The main reason was that people kept coming to him, so he could kill them and obtain a lot


    of things.


    However, as his realm increased, the resources he needed also began to increase.


    If he wanted to break through to the Divine Ability realm quickly, he needed all kinds of spiritual items to assist him.


    Moreover, if he had the assistance of a formation, it would be much easier for him to travel through the great void.


    This also required Spirit Stones.


    Lastly, he still had a hound to raise. Big Yellow must at least reach the Spirit General rank.


    Otherwise, Big Yellow would only be able to stay in the spiritual pet bag like this. After careful calculation, Zhou Feng felt his scalp go numb when he realized that so many things required Spirit Stones.


    Sure enough, the things that every cultivator had to go through were coming.


    Cultivation resources!


    There wasn¡¯t a single cultivator who didn¡¯t have to worry about cultivation resources.


    Even those top-tier aristocratic families and large clans would worry about cultivation resources.


    This was because there were only a few top-tier cultivation resources, and there were too many cultivators.


    There was simply not enough to share. For example, divine ability fruits that could assist in comprehending divine abilities were very rare. It was already good enough to have one in a year.


    Even the three great holy lands lacked such cultivation resources.


    If nothing went wrong, Zhou Feng would have to start running around for his cultivation resources in the future.


    The days of carefree cultivation and waiting for everything to come to him were already over.


    If he continued to be the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace, perhaps these things would not bother him for the time being.


    That thought suddenly appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    If he continued to stay in the Dragon Palace, not only would he have a loli-like true dragon princess as his wife, but he would also be able to live off her.


    He would be able to live off her and not have to worry about cultivation resources at all.


    Thinking of this, he felt a trace of regret.


    ¡°Regret is of no use now!¡±


    Zhou Feng quickly cut off this trace of emotion.


    If he continued to stay in the Dragon Palace, it would still be too dangerous. Moreover, there was not much freedom there.


    He could do whatever he wanted! He didn¡¯t have any enemies! He didn¡¯t have any friends!


    This was true freedom!


    ¡°I¡¯ve worked hard for so long! Finally, I can fly freely in the sky!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mood instantly improved.


    This feeling of knowing who he was was really great.

 Chapter 317 - Two Women Thinking About Him

    Chapter 317 Two Women Thinking About Him


    Zhou Feng leaped out of the sea and took a deep breath.


    During this period, he had been living in the sea.


    Although the passive Underwater Breathing allowed him to move freely like an aquatic creature, he was still not used to it.


    The feeling of breathing freely was too good!


    Moreover, the restraints around his body were finally lifted.


    ¡°Come out, Big Yellow!¡± The moment he left the sea, he released Big Yellow.


    Big Yellow had been so bored that it almost committed suicide.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng hurriedly released Big Yellow.


    Big Yellow immediately barked twice.


    This was the smell of freedom!


    After leaving the Southern Sea, Zhou Feng had no intention of stopping.


    It was better to hurry to the Jade Sword Holy Land!


    He was rather interested in the holy lands of the Southern Border.


    This was because he heard that it was different from remote places like Heavenly Star City.


    The vicinity of the Jade Sword Holy Land had long been transformed to look like the Central Plains.


    It wasn¡¯t filled with dense forests and surrounded by venomous insects, but it was transformed into a livable place.


    Of course, the most important thing was that there were many special cultivation resources there.


    They could be used for cultivation at all levels.


    It was said that there was a Jade Sword Forest in the Jade Sword Holy Land, where many jade swords were planted in it.


    As long as one was a Jade Sword disciple, they could choose a jade sword from it.


    This Jade Sword Forest even generated Sword Qi.


    There was a high chance of comprehending the Sword Dao and breaking through to the Divine Ability realm if one cultivated in it.


    That¡¯s right! It was with the help of the Jade Sword Forest that the Jade Sword Holy Land would give birth to Divine Ability cultivators every year.


    This was also the key to the Jade Sword Holy Land becoming one of the holy lands.


    Zhou Feng had already planned that if he really could not comprehend the so-called true meaning of the void.


    Then he would opt for this Jade Sword Forest.


    Zhou Feng was also very interested in swordsmanship.


    Flying on a flying sword, one sword light freezing nineteen provinces, and so on¡­


    Zhou Feng was still looking forward to these things.


    ¡°Anyway, I just need to keep heading east.¡±


    Although Zhou Feng had a map, he didn¡¯t know his exact location.


    Thus, he planned to train himself while heading east.


    In any case, Zhou Feng was not in a hurry. He still had many years to live.


    ¡°Big Yellow, let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng led Big Yellow and headed in the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s direction.


    As for returning to Heavenly Star City? That was impossible!


    At present, he could be considered to be on the blacklist in Heavenly Star City.


    If he returned to Heavenly Star City now, he did not know how much trouble he would cause.


    In fact, the storm in Heavenly Star City had not stopped until now.


    The main reason was that Zhou Feng had raised a sh*tstorm.


    Not only had the Bai Clan lost a direct descendant, but they had even lost a Dao Protector with half-step Divine Ability battle strength.


    This had dealt a great blow to the Bai Clan¡¯s prestige. If Zhou Feng appeared now, the Bai Clan Leader would definitely not say much and would take action personally.


    On the other hand, Li Rong¡¯s situation was much better.


    Under the influence of Zhou Feng, Li Rong directly changed into a different person.


    The originally quiet girl became violent and fought crazily.


    Her fighting style was very similar to Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    Or it could be said that she imitated his fighting style. Exchanging injuries for injuries was a common occurrence.


    Fortunately, Li Rong had a Divine Ability aunt behind her.


    That was why she was not covered in injuries.


    In fact, Li Rong had also undergone such a 365-degree change due to the influence of her aunt.


    ¡°Your man ran away! Why don¡¯t you just go and catch him? When you break through to the Divine Ability realm, will that little man still be able to escape from your palm?¡±


    These words were Li Manya¡¯s original words.


    Why was Zhou Feng able to be so free and easy?


    In the end, the Bai Clan still couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng. Wasn¡¯t it all because Zhou Feng was strong enough?


    If Li Rong was so strong that Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t resist, would he still be able to escape from her hands in the end?


    At first, Li Rong would be so embarrassed that she didn¡¯t dare to say anything whenever her aunt uttered such words. This was the way of a hoodlum!


    But after being brainwashed, Li Rong became serious.


    Now, she cultivated hard every day in order to break through as soon as possible and find Zhou Feng to bring him back.


    In fact, Li Manya said this purely to encourage Li Rong.


    Who would have thought that Li Rong would really listen to it and even put in the effort for it?


    This was the most frustrating thing.


    But speaking of this, what else could Li Manya do?


    She could only support Li Rong with all her might in the end.


    Zhou Feng himself probably didn¡¯t know that two women had already sworn to cultivate diligently and then forcefully bring him back to be their husband.


    One was the Fifth Princess of the Dragon Palace, who had the bloodline of a true dragon.


    The other was slightly weaker but was also a direct descendant of the four great clans of Heavenly Star City and had the support of a Divine Ability aunt.


    Zhou Feng would never have thought that his charm would be so great.


    Putting everything else aside, Zhou Feng now understood what freedom was.


    He did not have any restrictions and could do whatever he wanted.


    When he was hungry, he would eat and drink wind and dew. When he was tired, he would find a random place to sleep.


    Meanwhile, Big Yellow acted as a danger detector and would issue warnings.


    Big Yellow¡¯s use was also fully displayed in the wild.


    In many cases, Zhou Feng did not even need to sense in advance before Big Yellow took the initiative to warn him.


    After that, he would change the route and avoid trouble.


    And every time he had a moment of enlightenment, he would silently cultivate on the spot.


    Zhou Feng had also tried a few soul travels to the great void during this process.


    But none of them yielded much.


    Although his strength did not increase much, Zhou Feng¡¯s state of mind had improved a lot.


    His entire person was extremely free and easy, but his appearance was a little savage.


    His hair was disheveled, his clothes were in tatters, and his body was covered in scabs.


    The theory of high EQ was that he was a wandering immortal.


    The theory of low EQ was that he was a beggar.


    After experiencing the endless wilderness, a large number of buildings and farmlands began to enter his eyes.


    ¡°So many people!¡±


    This was the first time Zhou Feng saw so many people in the wilderness.


    And the front was actually bare.


    ¡®The ubiquitous wilderness forest has disappeared?¡¯


    In its place were all kinds of farmland and houses.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng felt a sense of surveillance around him. He knew that he was not far from his destination.


    ¡®Is that¡­ spiritual rice?¡¯


    Looking at the full-grain rice on the farmland, Zhou Feng was a little surprised by the Spiritual Qi contained in it.


    Spiritual rice was a kind of rice that grew by absorbing Spiritual Qi.


    If one ate it regularly, they could slightly improve his aptitude.


    He had only seen it in Heavenly Star City, and it was extremely precious.


    After all, in Heavenly Star City, that damned place, there was simply no place to open up a farmland.


    The meals one ate there almost consisted of meat.


    That¡¯s right!


    Everyone in Heavenly Star City used meat as their staple food.


    The main reason was that there were too many demonic beasts around Heavenly Star City. It was impossible to farm.


    It was also thanks to the fact that almost everyone in this world could cultivate. Otherwise, if they ate like this, it would really be easy for them to become malnourished.


    Zhou Feng stood still for a while and soon attracted the attention of many people.


    ¡°You are¡­¡±

 Chapter 318 - Was Indeed the Most Troublesome

    Chapter 318 Was Indeed the Most Troublesome


    A young man dressed in violet jade clothes frowned as he looked at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°You are¡­¡±


    Sun Gui was currently staring intently at Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t concealed his cultivation at all, so that peak Purple Mansion aura made Sun Gui somewhat cautious.


    After all, it was best not to hide one¡¯s own aura when traveling outside.


    Hiding one¡¯s own cultivation was an extremely stupid thing to do because it would cause a lot of trouble out of thin air.


    Sometimes, when some demonic beasts or cultivators saw that one¡¯s cultivation wasn¡¯t weak, they wouldn¡¯t choose to attack because there would be a lot of risks involved.


    And if one intentionally hid one¡¯s own cultivation, it would inevitably cause others to have the thought of attacking.


    When vicious cultivators encountered a cultivator whose cultivation level was far lower than theirs, they would not mind learning¡¯ some extra money.


    Thus, Zhou Feng had never hidden his cultivation level.


    ¡°Oh, my name is Zhou Feng. I wonder if the Jade Sword Holy Land is in this direction.¡±


    Zhou Feng also sized up Sun Gui.


    Sun Gui was also a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    The closer Zhou Feng was to the Jade Sword Holy Land, the higher one¡¯s Purple Mansion cultivation level would be.


    This person seemed to be guarding these farmlands.


    A random person guarding these farmlands was actually a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    It seemed that Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation level was still a bit weak.


    ¡°You came from the wildlands?¡±


    ¡®Another person who came to the holy land to beg¡­


    When Sun Gui heard his words, a trace of disgust immediately appeared on his face.


    Of course, Sun Gui did not directly say the second half of his sentence, but his attitude toward Zhou Feng directly plummeted because he had seen many such people.


    The three holy lands of the Southern Border were like the big cities in Zhou Feng¡¯s previous life.


    They continuously attracted numerous cultivators.


    Many people came from the remote border and crossed the endless forest to come here every year.


    The people from other areas were all beggars in the eyes of the people from the three holy lands.


    Even though these people¡¯s cultivation was not bad, their strength was not that great.


    Only the border cities had some strength.


    ¡°The wilderness? Probably.¡±


    Zhou Feng noticed the disgust on Sun Gui¡¯s face, and his voice sounded calm.


    ¡°Quickly leave this place! If you continue to stay here, you will be treated as an evil person!¡±


    Sun Gui didn¡¯t even answer Zhou Feng¡¯s question and tried to chase him away.


    Even though Zhou Feng had the aura of a peak Purple Mansion expert, and Sun Gui had only just entered the Purple Mansion realm, he didn¡¯t hide his disdain.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t really care about this sort of situation.


    If Sun Gui didn¡¯t want to answer, then he wouldn¡¯t answer. There was no need for him to kill someone in a fit of rage.


    ¡®It seems that city people look down on people from the countryside!¡¯


    Zhou Feng simply teased in his heart.


    ¡°Wait a moment! Is that a Mountain Spirit Hound next to you?¡±


    Originally, Zhou Feng planned to turn around and leave.


    But he didn¡¯t expect to be stopped by a voice.


    A young man was seen flying over on his sword.


    This person was dressed in white, and his black hair was tied up. His pair of sword-like eyebrows pierced the sky, and he exuded an unstoppable sharpness.


    The flying sword under his feet was like purple jade, reflecting a faint purple light under the sunlight. ¡°Senior Brother Ji!¡±


    Sun Gui¡¯s face instantly changed when he saw this person. From disgust to flattery, this switch only took less than a second. ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes.


    ¡®Divine Ability realm? No, he should be about to step into the Divine Ability realm.¡¯


    When Ji Luo appeared, Zhou Feng could clearly feel the aura that belonged to the Divine Ability realm.


    However, this person in front of him had not reached the Divine Ability realm. It should be the so-called half-step Divine Ability realm.


    This kind of person had already comprehended a divine ability, but he had not used the power of the divine ability to baptize his soul. He could not be considered a true Divine Ability expert.


    However, his battle prowess was already comparable to a Divine Ability expert.


    It was just that they couldn¡¯t casually use a divine ability.


    Although Ji Luo hadn¡¯t said anything, Zhou Feng had already sensed a troublesome aura.


    As expected, there would always be trouble as long as one encountered people.


    It was inferior to those demonic beasts in the wild. At least, after those demonic beasts sensed Zhou Feng¡¯s tyrannical aura, they would tuck their tails and flee.


    At this moment, Big Yellow was also looking at Ji Luo with vigilance.


    ¡°Not bad! Although the bloodline is a little mixed, it¡¯s a pure Mountain Spirit Hound!¡±


    Ji Luo sized up Big Yellow on his flying sword.


    Mountain Spirit Hound! This was a very rare spirit beast.


    Although it was not very strong, its ability to lead the way and its sense of smell were abnormally sensitive.


    Normally, Ji Luo would not care about this kind of spirit beast.


    However, it was different now.


    Ji Luo needed to hunt down a demonic beast and retrieve one of its parts.


    Unexpectedly, that demonic beast was extremely crafty, and its evasive ability was very strong


    Ji Luo had ambushed and tried to kill it several times but failed!


    If he had the Mountain Spirit Hound¡¯s assistance, he should be able to capture that demonic beast.


    But a spirit beast like the Mountain Spirit Hound, although it was rare, its strength was relatively weak.


    There was no one to nurture it, so finding a Mountain Spirit Hound to help was impossible.


    Now that he had met one wasn¡¯t this akin to the heavens helping him?


    ¡°I need your Mountain Spirit Hound to help me!¡± demanded Ji Luo.


    However, there was no mention of the reward.


    From the looks of it, it was obvious that he wanted to have it for free.


    However, this was very normal. Zhou Feng looked like a beggar.


    His cultivation level was not as high as Ji Luo¡¯s, and there were not many people in the surrounding environment.


    Ji Luo did not attack directly. He had already considered that Zhou Feng would fight to the death, so he did not attack directly.


    The law of the jungle was extremely normal in the wild.


    Even if Zhou Feng did not know Ji Luo before, he had never offended Ji Luo.


    ¡°Sorry, not interested!¡±


    Zhou Feng clenched his fists and directly rejected him.


    He had already made up his mind. As long as Ji Luo dared to threaten him, he would immediately take action.


    ¡°Do you know that I¡¯m a Jade Sword disciple?¡±


    Ji Luo was not surprised by Zhou Feng¡¯s rejection.


    These people who had just come from the wilderness through the endless forest always had inexplicable arrogance.


    But reality would soon deal a heavy blow to these people.


    Ji Luo had met many people like Zhou Feng before.


    Those who could cross the endless forest basically all had a skill. These people still had inexplicable confidence in their own strength.


    However, this confidence would be crushed into dregs under his flying sword.


    Robbing these cultivators who had crossed over from the savage land was Ji Luo¡¯s reserved modus operandi.


    Otherwise, as a member of the Ji Clan, he wouldn¡¯t have come to this barren land to guard the spirit fields.


    When Sun Gui saw this, he also consciously stood to the side, ready to watch a good show.


    Only Ji Luo dared to rob here brazenly.


    Firstly, Ji Luo¡¯s strength allowed him to be that way.


    Secondly, Ji Luo¡¯s background was deep enough that he wasn¡¯t afraid of being gossiped about.


    ¡°A Jade Sword disciple, right? Hurry up and die!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes shone brightly.


    Ji Luo¡¯s lips curled up in disdain as he waited for Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction.


    Zhou Feng took the initiative to attack.

 Chapter 319 - Sword Control Technique

    Chapter 319 Sword Control Technique


    Zhou Feng¡¯s logic was always so simple.


    Since someone was deliberately looking for trouble with him, he might as well make a move. It would be too stupid if he had no choice but to make a move after being wronged.


    Evidently, Ji Luo was targeting Zhou Feng for some unknown reason.


    Perhaps it was because he came from the so-called wilderness? Or was it because he looked too pathetic?


    Ji Luo was tempted to attack Zhou Feng without knowing his background?


    If all the disciples of the Jade Sword Holy Land were like this, then this so-called holy land was just like that.


    Zhou Feng threw a punch!


    This punch still had the feeling of returning to the basics.


    All the strength in his body was concealed. It looked like an extremely simple punch.


    However, Ji Luo felt as if a mountain was suppressing him.


    ¡®Heavy!¡¯


    The surroundings suddenly became heavy.


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden attack surprised Ji Luo, his reaction was not slow at all.


    Ji Luo at least let out an angry shout. The sharp aura on his body began to spread all around.


    Clang!


    A sword hum sounded, and the sharp sword light formed a thin thread as if it could split the sky.


    Before the sword light even touched Zhou Feng¡¯s body, he already felt waves of piercing pain.


    He couldn¡¯t take it head-on!


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s current physical strength, if he took this sword head-on, he probably wouldn¡¯t be able to take it at all. Thus, Zhou Feng immediately retracted his hand and easily dodged the sword with the help of his Passive Battle Instinct.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Dodge!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s steady voice made Big Yellow dodge at once.


    The person in front of him was extremely powerful. He was indeed worthy of being a disciple of the holy land.


    Just that sword attack was more powerful than the Bai Dao Protector that he had fought before.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow was also very quick-witted and jumped to the side.


    Sun Gui, who was originally watching the show, felt Zhou Feng¡¯s dominance and immediately slipped away.


    In any case, Ji Luo was the one who wanted to make a move. What did this have to do with him?


    It was better for him to watch the show.


    If Ji Luo won in the end, he would go up and compliment him.


    If Zhou Feng won, he would immediately summon a distress signal.


    No matter what the outcome was, it would not affect him.


    Sun Gui¡¯s plan was very clear.


    At the same time, he was also a little glad that even though he treated Zhou Feng with contempt, he hadn¡¯t taken the initiative to attack. Otherwise, he might have suffered.


    ¡°Sword Control! One move!¡±


    Ji Luo¡¯s expression was a little ugly. The person in front of him seemed to have some strength, but this was not a reason for him to retreat.


    Since he had chosen this path, he had to walk that path until the end.


    In any case, Ji Luo had already mentally prepared himself before making his move.


    Sooner or later, he would meet a tough opponent. As the saying went, ¡°Walking by the river often doesn¡¯t get one¡¯s shoes wet.¡±


    However, if he didn¡¯t earn some extra money, how long would it take for him to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Although the Ji Clan was a large clan, they couldn¡¯t afford to support so many branch families.


    Therefore, Ji Luo didn¡¯t regret it. In fact, his killing intent got even stronger.


    He had to finish off Zhou Feng as soon as possible.


    Clang! Clang! Clang


    The sound of sword chimes sounded crazily. The flying sword beside Ji Luo could be said to be showing off its sharpness.


    Countless sword shadows spread out. The silver light scattered and turned into threads of sharp Sword Qi that surrounded Zhou Feng.


    Ji Luo had studied the Dao of Sword Control for a long time. It could be said that he had almost stepped into the Dao.


    When he unleashed his full power, he was not inferior to a cultivator who had just entered the Divine Ability realm.


    However, Ji Luo was not a true Divine Ability cultivator.


    Even he himself could not withstand this sharp aura. He had to end this battle as soon as possible.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    As the sword light filled the sky, a flying sword suspended in the air.


    Zhou Feng also had nowhere to hide. No matter how fast he was, he could not be faster than a flying sword.


    After all, using one¡¯s soul to control a flying sword was much faster than using his body to move.


    Almost as soon as he used his soul power, the flying sword followed.


    Since Zhou Feng could not dodge it, he decided not to dodge it.


    The silver sword ray instantly tore through Zhou Feng¡¯s skin.


    The purple jade flying sword also pierced through Zhou Feng¡¯s shoulder in an instant.


    He had experienced the power of the flying sword.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Ji Luo pinched his sword finger again and controlled the flying sword, trying to take Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    However, that terrifying-looking injury was nothing out of the ordinary for Zhou Feng. He did not know how many such injuries he had suffered before this.


    In addition, the sword just now did not actually cause much of an injury.


    The skeleton coating directly blocked most of the sharp aura of the sword light.


    Then, coupled with Zhou Feng¡¯s various defensive passive skills, the only thing that could be called an injury was the hole in his shoulder.


    CCO


    Ji Luo naturally did not know how abnormal Zhou Feng¡¯s physical defense and recovery ability was. The two of them had never encountered each other before.


    Ji Luo also did not have any information about Zhou Feng, so the latter used this to his advantage.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Ji Luo¡¯s appraisal was ¡®seeking death,¡¯ these two words.


    ¡°How dare you go up against a flying sword? Are you courting death?


    ¡®You know, getting pierced by a flying sword isn¡¯t just a matter of the wound.


    ¡®The flying sword¡¯s sharp aura will infect your internal organs, and it won¡¯t take long for your internal organs to be torn apart.¡¯


    Unbeknownst to Ji Luo, Zhou Feng had forcefully shifted the internal organs and meridians in his body in advance.


    It would have been very difficult for him to do this in the past.


    However, ever since he had comprehended the Longevity Breathing Technique, Zhou Feng¡¯s control over his body had reached a peak.


    It was only a temporary shift. It was nothing special at all.


    The flying sword pierced through Zhou Feng¡¯s chest!


    And taking this opportunity, Zhou Feng also shortened the distance between him and Ji Luo.


    ¡°Naive!¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng, who was crazily charging at him, Ji Luo could only say that he was naive.


    He suddenly took a step back, and countless sword glows blocked in front of him.


    As a sword cultivator with high offense and low defense, he had long studied how to dodge the enemy¡¯s attacks.


    After all, although sword cultivators had the best offense, they still needed to withstand the terrifying sharpness of the flying sword.


    Their bodies could be said to be weak.


    For sword cultivators, the ideal state was naturally to fight offense with offense.


    They would slash you down with their swords as long as you met. Naturally, there was no need to consider defense.


    However, this was only the ideal state. A cultivator with Ji Luo¡¯s aptitude would have a very important problem if they were to defend against close-range enemies.


    Therefore, Ji Luo had also cultivated a movement technique, which was even somewhat integrated into the way of the sword.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Nas


    Zhou Feng looked at Ji Luo, who was retreating rapidly, and the veins on his forehead bulged.


    The Human Emperor Blood in his body burned crazily, and he forcefully broke through the sword rays in front of him again.


    Instantly, countless tiny wounds appeared.


    However, these densely packed wounds did not penetrate deep into the bone marrow. They looked like superficial wounds.


    The scariest thing was that not a single drop of blood flowed out.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical strength seemed to have increased significantly in an instant.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Zhou Feng, who had thought that he would be cut into minced meat by the sword rays, suddenly appeared in front of Ji Luo.


    At that moment, fear slowly crept onto Ji Luo¡¯s face.


    He seemed to have been a little careless!

 Chapter 320 - Strangling to Death

    Chapter 320 Strangling to Death


    Ji Luo¡¯s face was filled with fear because Zhou Feng was like an evil ghost at this moment. There were countless sword marks on his face, and he was injured by the sword light like a chrysanthemum.


    Layers upon layers of sword marks and scarlet flesh were completely exposed in front of Ji Luo.


    However, not a single drop of blood flowed out. Zhou Feng forcefully controlled it in his body.


    ¡°Sword, come!¡±


    When Ji Luo realized that he had underestimated the person before him, his voice immediately changed.


    He summoned back the flying sword that had flown out.


    Unfortunately, it was too late.


    Zhou Feng had taken so many hits just for this opportunity.


    His jade-like hand grabbed Ji Luo¡¯s neck.


    ¡°Do you know,¡±


    Between life and death, Ji Luo suddenly remembered that the only thing that could save him now was the holy land behind him.


    In fact, why did many disciples of the big clans and sects always shout like this before they died?


    The reason was very simple. It was because the deterrent power of a certain person was inferior to that of a sect.


    And for the disciples of these sects, the sect behind them was their greatest reliance.


    It was normal for people to bring out their strongest backers in times of crisis.


    This situation was like children fighting and eventually bringing out their parents.


    However, Zhou Feng had heard this many times.


    He twisted Ji Luo¡¯s neck with just a little strength without any hesitation.


    Although Ji Luo tried to resist during the process, and the flying sword returned, stabbing into Zhou Feng¡¯s back once again, it could not stop Zhou Feng¡¯s movements.


    ¡®What weak vitality¡­!


    Looking at Ji Luo, who was gradually becoming limp in front of him, he raised his eyebrows.


    These people who cultivated the way of the sword seemed to have a weak survival ability.


    Not only were their physical bodies not strong, but they didn¡¯t even have a way to escape.


    They died just like that?


    To be honest, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t believe that he could kill a half-step Divine Ability cultivator so easily. Moreover, he was a so-called disciple of the holy land?


    Compared to Zhou Feng, he was too easy to kill.


    However, the killing power of a sword cultivator was quite abnormal.


    At present, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was filled with the flying sword¡¯s sharp Sword Qi.


    It was constantly eroding the Blood Qi in his body and even caused his recovery speed to slow down greatly.


    The recovery speed of his injuries was suppressed to the slowest.


    ¡®What a powerful flying sword! If it was a true Divine Ability cultivator, I might have been beheaded with one strike!¡¯


    At this moment, Zhou Feng put away the thought of fighting someone of a higher level.


    In the face of such a terrifying sword cultivator, it was best not to fight someone of a higher level.


    Fighting someone of a higher level was equivalent to courting death. With this sword strike, he might die an unnatural death.


    It was even more exaggerated to say that he would be challenged by these sword cultivators of a higher level.


    Zhou Feng pulled out the flying sword stuck in his back. Of course, a large amount of blood didn¡¯t fly out during this process.


    He forcefully controlled all the blood.


    ¡°You¡­ You¡­¡±


    Sun Gui only felt his legs go a little soft.


    This beggar-like person in front of him had killed Senior Brother Ji in one move!?


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had just pulled the flying sword out of his back with an expressionless face. It was truly terrifying. ¡®Is this still a human? With such severe injuries, why does it seem like he¡¯s fine?


    ¡®Could it be that this person doesn¡¯t feel pain? Where did this madman come from!?¡¯


    ¡°You killed¡­ Senior Brother Ji!? You¡¯re dead meat!¡±


    Although his voice was slightly trembling, Sun Gui still said these words. If a disciple of the holy land died outside, the holy land would pursue the perpetrator.


    No one could escape the pursuit of the holy land! Even if Ji Luo was in the wrong, Zhou Feng was dead meat!


    This had nothing to do with anything else. It was only because of the prestige of the holy land.


    No matter what kind of sect it was, it would always be like this.


    If they didn¡¯t avenge their dead disciple, then the foundation of the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s rule would be shaken.


    A disciple of the holy land had died at the hands of an outsider.


    If the holy land didn¡¯t do anything, wouldn¡¯t that mean that the holy land didn¡¯t have the power to suppress those crazy people?


    This would make people wonder if the holy land had declined.


    At that time, all kinds of probing attempts would arise.


    This kind of result would make these sects and forces vote with their feet.


    Therefore, everything would be handled the same way after this kind of thing happened.


    They would first kill the madman who dared to kill their disciple and then slowly discuss the rest.


    ¡®Troublesome!¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s killing intent rose, and he naturally couldn¡¯t stop.


    He rose again and crushed Sun Gui to death with one hand.


    This was even easier than killing Ji Luo.


    Sun Gui had long been so scared that he wet his pants. When facing Zhou Feng, he didn¡¯t even know how to resist.


    As for the ordinary people who had just been farming here, they had long fled when Zhou Feng and Ji Luo were fighting.


    Although he was a little speechless, it was not that he could not accept it.


    In any case, it was the same old story-he had no background, no backing, and did not even have any decent friends.


    Under such circumstances, if he wanted to continue cultivating, things like bowing and scraping were out of the picture.


    He could only do so. If he offended them, he would offend them!


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t feel any psychological burden. He even skillfully took away the things from Ji Luo and Sun Gui.


    As for the flying sword, he directly accepted it with a smile.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Let¡¯s go!¡±


    After a simple search, he also checked his condition.


    Then, he changed his appearance and continued to walk forward.


    This was only a marginal area ruled by the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    One had to know that the Jade Sword Holy Land ruled over at least a dozen cities.


    This place didn¡¯t even touch the edge of a city.


    Zhou Feng simply left!


    The people of the Jade Sword Holy Land were furious.


    ¡°He¡¯s dead? How could he die like this? Ji Luo is about to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡°Where¡¯s the distress signal? A one-hit kill? He didn¡¯t even call for help?


    ¡°He didn¡¯t leave any aura behind? Could he be a devil that came from the wilderness?¡±


    II


    11


    Not long after Ji Luo¡¯s death, a Jade Sword disciple came to investigate the situation.


    No matter what, Ji Luo could be considered an official Jade Sword disciple.


    Now that he had died outside without any reason, he naturally had to investigate thoroughly.


    And the results of this investigation were also very surprising.


    Ji Luo seemed to have been taken down in one move and hadn¡¯t even had the chance to struggle during the entire process.


    There wasn¡¯t even the slightest trace of blood or the aura of a stranger left at the scene.


    This was simply impossible to investigate!


    Zhou Feng had firmly controlled his aura and blood, so he didn¡¯t leave even the slightest evidence.


    Under such circumstances, it was too difficult to investigate the murderer.


    However, the only thing that could be confirmed was that the murderer must be a cultivator of the Divine Ability realm or above.


    Only a Divine Ability cultivator could kill in one strike without leaving any traces behind.


    According to this clue, there might be a lot of gains if they searched for any unfamiliar Divine Ability cultivators passing by.


    The Jade Sword disciple might not have thought his guess was way off reality.


    Searching for Zhou Feng among the Divine Ability cultivators was like drawing water from a bamboo basket.


    In the end, it was all for naught~

 Chapter 321 - Hybrid Pegasi

    Chapter 321 Hybrid Pegasi


    Due to various reasons, the Jade Sword disciples did not manage to capture Zhou Feng


    Zhou Feng did not have any worries as he slowly headed toward a city under the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s banner.


    The further he went, the more he felt a different atmosphere.


    There were not many trees around, and there was no wild scene.


    Instead, there were numerous human buildings.


    Cultivators were everywhere. Even the grandpa farming by the side of the road had a cultivation base.


    However, the Spiritual Qi was also very thin, probably because there were too many people.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt that he had officially started to come into contact with this cultivation world.


    ¡®Is that a flying spiritual artifact? And that is¡­¡¯


    He looked around here like an old granny entering a Grandview Garden.


    This was because many cultivators here looked very wealthy compared to Heavenly Star City.


    There were all kinds of spiritual artifacts in their hands, and they all seemed to have different uses.


    It was completely different from the ancient cultivation society in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    Here, many cultivators seemed to be able to simplify their work by harnessing Spiritual Qi.


    Zhou Feng even saw some devices similar to streetlamps that worked with Spiritual Qi.


    They didn¡¯t even need Spirit Stones. They only needed to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Qi to work.


    The road under his feet was also a complete bluestone slab.


    ¡®As expected! After having the power of a cultivator, the development of society will become advanced to a certain extent¡­¡¯


    This was a completely different feeling.


    It was also his first time experiencing simple local customs. An advanced cultivation society seemed to be quite interesting.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t encounter any trouble along the way.


    It was mainly because of the previous encounter that he had carefully tidied up his appearance.


    Zhou Feng was dressed in simple white clothes, and his long black hair was simply up.


    It didn¡¯t look like anything special, but his good looks and white jade skin made him look like a rich man.


    ¡®Stranger like jade, childe world peerless¡¯


    These two lines of poetry may be a perfect description of Zhou Feng now.


    The practice itself had the function of optimizing physical defects.


    In addition, the Human Emperor Scripture had a beautifying function. The deeper one cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, the greater the improvement in one¡¯s appearance and temperament.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng had the passive Amorous Prodigal Heart, which directly increased his charm.


    Therefore, he cleaned up a little and looked like the holy son of a holy land, making people afraid to approach him.


    Zhou Feng finally avoided a lot of trouble, and many people only looked at him from afar. They did not dare to approach him at all. He could also use this opportunity to wander around.


    ¡®Pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger is indeed not good. I still have to act a little when I go


    out¡­


    He shrugged helplessly.


    It was normal to welcome the high and tread on the low. This was human nature.


    However, there were some disadvantages to being so high-profile. This would easily attract the attention of some people.


    When the time came, it would cause some trouble.


    Still, it was better than being constantly disturbed by some small flies.


    Zhou Feng had already inquired about it.


    In front of him was a big city called Celestial Lake City


    Celestial Lake City was the largest city in the vicinity. At the same time, it had a branch of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    If he wanted to go to Jade Sword City, he could only use Celestial Lake City¡¯s teleportation formation to go there.


    It was worth mentioning that there was an immortal lake in Celestial Lake City that would open every once in a while.


    As long as one bathed in the immortal lake, they would have a chance to improve their chances of comprehending the Dao.


    Countless cultivators stuck in the Divine Ability realm would come to Celestial Lake City every once in a while to try their luck.


    Taking this opportunity, Celestial Lake City would also hold an auction.


    The main purpose was to collect all kinds of rare treasures and sell the quota to enter the immortal lake.


    It had to be said that the business of Celestial Lake City was quite good.


    It directly used the immortal lake as a point to attract people and then used the popularity to expand other businesses.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current goal was to stay at Celestial Lake City for some time.


    Then, he would see if he could get some information to help him break through. He also wanted to earn some Spirit Stones.


    In the end, if it didn¡¯t work out, he planned to head to Jade Sword City, which was also the headquarters of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    After all, his goal had always been to increase his cultivation, so the other things were just a side trip.


    ¡°Big Yellow, let¡¯s go!¡±


    After Zhou Feng had determined his goal, he began to advance on foot.


    He currently didn¡¯t have any spiritual artifacts that could substitute walking, and Big Yellow was too small; he couldn¡¯t ride him at all.


    Thus, he could only rely on a pair of legs to slowly walk over.


    However, when Zhou Feng was halfway there, trouble came.


    A carriage suddenly stopped to the side.


    The carriage¡¯s decoration was exaggerated. The carriage was wrapped in silk on all four sides, and a light blue crepe curtain covered the gold-inlaid window.


    The materials of the carriage also faintly revealed a trace of nobility.


    And this wasn¡¯t the most exaggerated. The exaggerated ones were the two horses pulling the carriage.


    The two horses were completely pink. Their fur fluttered in the wind like dancing flames.


    Their cultivation was actually at the Spirit King rank? In other words, these two horses had already comprehended their innate divine ability?


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but use the passive Appraising Eye to check the horses¡¯ breed.


    (Hybrid Pegasus: A steed that is a hybrid of a Pegasus and an unknown demonic beast.)


    ¡°Mixed Pegasus? Only such a short introduction?¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. He didn¡¯t expect the passive Appraising Eye only to give him this bit of information.


    Pegasus! He knew this. It was also a legendary spirit beast.


    ¡°Oh? This brother is indeed extraordinary! Did you recognize my Pegasi at a glance? It seems that my taste is not bad!¡±


    Jiang Yi heard Zhou Feng muttering in a low voice, and his eyes lit up. He was indeed an extraordinary person to have recognized his Pegasi at a glance.


    One had to know that one of his two horses was mistaken as a Blazing Foal because of their appearance.


    No one thought that these two horses were the descendants of the legendary Pegasus.


    Originally, Jiang Yi had been invited to the Celestial Lake Convention to rush to Celestial Lake City from other places.


    But he didn¡¯t expect that there would be a person walking on the main road.


    This was a rare thing.


    The areas under the jurisdiction of the various holy lands had been stable for thousands of years, and there were almost no major disputes.


    Therefore, various things developed extremely quickly.


    Even the old farmer in charge of maintaining the spiritual fields had a spirit ox pulling the cart.


    As for spiritual transportation artifacts like flying swords, there were countless of them.


    Very few people walked on the main road on foot at this stage.


    This was especially so for a cultivator with such a unique temperament.


    Beside him was a Mountain Spirit Hound. Although this Mountain Spirit Hound¡¯s bloodline was not pure, it should have been fed with a lot of Spirit Stones judging from its fur color and condition.


    If Zhou Feng was not a wealthy person, he would have definitely not raised it to such a level.


    This kind of strange cultivator made Jiang Yi curious.


    Therefore, he stopped the carriage to see who this person was.


    And when he looked at him, it was even more incredible. Jiang Yi actually felt a faint threat from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.

 Chapter 322 - A Sick Person

    Chapter 322 A Sick Person


    Zhou Feng frowned as he looked at Jiang Yi.


    For a moment, he didn¡¯t know what this person meant.


    Therefore, he just looked at Jiang Yi quietly and didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°Brother! I am Jiang Yi from the Jiang Clan. May I have the honor of getting to know  you?¡±


    Jiang Yi came up and directly introduced himself. Then, he expressed that he wanted to get to know Zhou Feng.


    Taking advantage of this period, Jiang Yi faintly wanted to probe Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    Although this person was only in the Purple Mansion realm, Jiang Yi didn¡¯t think that Zhou Feng was only in the Purple Mansion realm.


    That sort of vague threat¡­ Only a Divine Ability cultivator could pose a threat to him.


    And it wasn¡¯t the type of cultivator who had just entered the Divine Ability realm.


    At the very least, it was a cultivator who had cultivated an advanced divine ability.


    Zhou Feng felt an extremely obscure aura that wanted to probe him.


    His expression instantly changed.


    ¡®Trouble is coming again!¡¯


    As expected, although his current attire had reduced a lot of unnecessary trouble, it was possible to attract other trouble.


    Just like now, this was unavoidable.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face became stern, and traces of killing intent began to be released slowly.


    Beside him, Big Yellow also sensed that something was wrong and immediately ran behind Zhou Feng.


    It didn¡¯t bark and only acted as if it was preparing for an ambush.


    The servants behind Jiang Yi also became nervous when they saw that the atmosphere wasn¡¯t right.


    This was because the killing intent that Zhou Feng revealed was really too strong.


    Who knew how many people he had killed? And it even contained mixed traces of many different races!?


    Killing intent was an extremely mysterious thing.


    As long as one killed a lot of people, killing intent would naturally be condensed.


    Moreover, the stronger the person one killed, the more intense the killing intent on one¡¯s body would be.


    This was something like an aura, somewhat like a phenomenon.


    An avatar condensed by a Purple Mansion cultivator also belonged to this category.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! I was thrilled you recognized my horses. This can be considered an apology!¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s change in attitude, Jiang Yi also knew that his covert detection attempt had been discovered.


    However, Jiang Yi didn¡¯t fall out with him. Instead, he apologized repeatedly. At the same time, he took out a fruit as an apology.


    Zhou Feng used the passive Appraising Eye to check the fruit that was filled with golden jade and yin characters.


    [Enlightenment Fruit: A spirit fruit that can help one comprehend divine abilities. The conditions for its growth are extremely harsh.]


    At that moment, Zhou Feng even thought that he had misread.


    Enlightenment Fruit? A spirit fruit that could aid in the comprehension of a divine ability?


    Such a precious spirit fruit was actually casually taken out by this person as an apology?


    In addition to using the Pegasi to pull the carriage, Jiang Yi¡¯s background seemed to be a little strong.


    Although he was extremely shocked in his heart, Zhou Feng still didn¡¯t have the slightest expression on his face.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    After thinking for a second, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t plan to continue dilly-dallying there.


    Instead, he continued to walk forward with Big Yellow, not even looking at the Enlightenment Fruit.


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s unreluctant look, Jiang Yi became even more determined in his heart.


    The man in front of him was indeed not an ordinary person.


    Not only was Jiang Yi not repelled by Zhou Feng¡¯s cold expression, but he showed even more enthusiasm.


    ¡®Could it be that he¡¯s from a hidden sect and has come out to hone himself?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know that Jiang Yi¡¯s mind was filled with countless things.


    And the reason Jiang Yi had such an expression was also related to this Celestial Lake Convention.


    As mentioned earlier, whenever the celestial lake opened, it would be the most lively time in Celestial Lake City.


    At that time, not only would the core Jade Sword disciples appear, but also the direct descendants of other holy lands and nearby major powers would be participating. As a direct descendant of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Yi was also a Holy Son of the holy land. Although his talent was outstanding, he didn¡¯t have many good friends to support him.


    Because of this Celestial Lake Conference, the Holy Sons of the holy land would all attend.


    Each Holy Son was equivalent to a faction.


    If Jiang Yi attended alone, it would be easy for others to look down on him.


    Therefore, Jiang Yi was trying to find a few close friends everywhere.


    Unlike others, Jiang Yi was looking for close friends because he really wanted to find friends who shared the same interests.


    He was not the kind of friend who went against his heart.


    It was unknown if Jiang Yi had a screw loose in his head. Given his status, he actually wanted to find close friends?


    This was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. Just the direct descendants of the Jiang Clan alone were enough to make countless people stop in their tracks.


    Perhaps some people didn¡¯t know the might of the Jiang Clan.


    In this area, it could only be said that the few forefathers of the Jade Sword Holy Land were all members of the Jiang Clan.


    From this point alone, it could be seen just how terrifying the Jiang Clan was.


    And Jiang Yi actually wanted to find a bosom friend?


    A large portion of them had been eliminated in terms of strength. Although Jiang Yi wanted to find a bosom friend, he wanted one of the same status and level. A true dragon would naturally not find a loach as a friend.


    Just this condition alone eliminated most people. Next, there was a need for two people with similar interests, which was the kind of friendship between Bo Ya and Zhong Ziqi.


    This was simply insane!


    Therefore, Jiang Yi had never had a true friend. Instead, he had been looking for a friend.


    ¡®Such a strange person, yet he had great strength and talent.


    ¡®He could even be called a genius.¡¯


    The servants behind Jiang Yi were not surprised by his state.


    This was because such a situation was very common.


    As long as Jiang Yi saw a person who met his conditions, he would want to make friends.


    And during this process, as long as there was even the slightest disagreement with Jiang Yi, the latter would turn around and leave.


    And he would do it without hesitation.


    This had caused many people who wanted to take the opportunity to get to know Jiang Yi to see Jiang Yi¡¯s back inexplicably.


    Jiang Yi would see through those with a certain agenda in no time.


    Now, Zhou Feng was obviously being pestered by this weirdo Jiang Yi.


    Before this, he had never thought that there would be such a person in this world.


    ¡°May I know this brother¡¯s name? We can also get to know each other!¡±


    Jiang Yi followed Zhou Feng¡¯s footsteps and walked along the main road.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t answer Jiang Yi. He didn¡¯t even look at him.


    He just continued to walk forward, thinking that it would only take a while.


    ¡°This person should be impatient.


    ¡®If this person continues to pester me, I¡¯ll make a move.


    ¡®Speaking of which, I¡¯m really unlucky!¡¯


    It wasn¡¯t easy for him to come to the territory of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    What kind of weirdos did he encounter one after another?


    ¡°I wonder why this brother is walking and not using a substitute spiritual artifact? Is there a deeper meaning behind it?¡±


    ¡°May I know if you are heading to Celestial Lake City to participate in the Celestial Lake Conference?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Jiang Yi kept asking all kinds of questions.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t answer any of them. He just continued to walk forward.


    However, if someone was careful, they might see Zhou Feng¡¯s fist slowly clenching.


    ¡®Why? Why would I meet such a person!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was currently pondering over this question.


    He wanted to cultivate quietly by himself, but why didn¡¯t he let him?


    Jiang Yi looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s expressionless face, and the corners of his mouth curled up.


    That¡¯s right! Jiang Yi had created this situation on purpose.


    He wanted to see how Zhou Feng would react in the end

 Chapter 323 - An Inexplicable Competition

    Chapter 323 An Inexplicable Competition


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    At that moment, Jiang Yi verified that Zhou Feng was an interesting person.


    Therefore, he tried to make friends with Zhou Feng normally. For a person who was keen on making friends, Zhou Feng¡¯s performance at this moment could be considered a friend worth making


    However, Zhou Feng was currently a little frustrated.


    ¡®Divine Ability realm¡­ The Jiang Clan!¡¯


    No matter how one looked at it, this was a direct descendant of a large clan.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first reaction to this kind of people was to avoid them from afar.


    This was because these kinds of people were the most troublesome. Once a fight broke out, countless old fellows might appear later.


    Moreover, these kinds of people were all proud and arrogant.


    If their intentions were a little unfavorable, they would cause all kinds of trouble.


    If Jiang Yi came to find trouble with him, Zhou Feng would naturally not say anything.


    He would directly attack, but now it seemed that Jiang Yi did not have any malicious intent. Instead, it seemed like he really wanted to make friends with him.


    At least, from Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp perspective, this person called Jiang Yi seemed to be really here to make friends.


    What kind of weirdo was this!?


    ¡®Forget it, I¡¯ll leave later anyway!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had just arrived in this territory, and he had already killed a Jade Sword disciple.


    It was best to keep a low profile now.


    Moreover, he didn¡¯t think Jiang Yi would have that kind of patience. He just needed some time.


    Jiang Yi might stop finding him interesting and leave on his own.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng ignored Jiang Yi, who was beside him.


    While hurrying forward, he would use the Longevity Breathing Technique to control the flow of Blood Qi in his body continuously. Originally, Zhou Feng thought that Jiang Yi would leave on his own very soon. However, he didn¡¯t know if there was something wrong with this person¡¯s head, but he actually followed him slowly on foot.


    He didn¡¯t sit in the luxurious carriage but walked just like him.


    Moreover, this person didn¡¯t look bored at all.


    On the contrary, he enjoyed this feeling very much.


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say anything, he got a lot of information from what Jiang Yi said.


    The first thing was the transportation artifact.


    The territory of the Jade Sword Holy Land was indeed more prosperous than Heavenly Star City. Almost all cultivators had transportation artifacts when they went out.


    There was almost no such thing as walking like Zhou Feng because transportation artifacts weren¡¯t just a matter of face. They could also save a lot of physical strength and Spiritual Qi. After all, the distance between each territory was vast.


    If there was no transportation artifact, it would be a waste of energy if one relied on oneself to cross the different cities.


    As for ferrying the void and teleportation formation, this was an extremely luxurious way to travel.


    Only a few cultivators would choose this method.


    All transportation artifacts were a necessary item for every cultivator.


    If Zhou Feng intended to walk from the Southern Border to the Eastern Land without transportation artifacts, it would only torture him.


    The extremely long journey was enough to torture him to the point of insanity.


    ¡®Transportation artifacts¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng also began to consider whether or not to get a transportation artifact.


    Although his physical body was powerful, and it was effortless for him to travel thousands of miles a day, it was still a waste of energy.


    It would be different if he had a top-notch transportation artifact.


    Just like Jiang Yi¡¯s horse carriage, that horse carriage was a top-notch spiritual artifact. And coupled with the two Pegasus, it only took two hours to travel from here to the Celestial Lake City.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s current speed, he would probably have to walk for several days and nights.


    Apart from that, Zhou Feng also learned about the existence of the Celestial Lake Conference.


    There was also the so-called auction. At that time, many good things could be bought at the auction.


    There might even be spiritual items that he needed.


    As for the so-called immortal lake, he was also very interested in it.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s pace suddenly quickened upon thinking of this.


    Although he still looked like he was walking, his legs turned into a blur.


    He was purely using his physical strength to walk without the aid of any other force.


    ¡®Is this a contest with me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not use any spiritual power but pure physical strength.


    Jiang Yi thought Zhou Feng was testing him. At present, Jiang Yi was also relying on his body to catch up with Zhou Feng¡¯s footsteps.


    As he was walking, Zhou Feng suddenly spoke.


    ¡°Big Yellow, come in.¡±


    He stored Big Yellow in his spiritual pet bag and continued to increase his speed.


    The power of each step was extremely terrifying, causing Zhou Feng to seem as if he was teleporting.


    With each step, he advanced dozens of meters forward.


    Naturally, he didn¡¯t want to compete with Jiang Yi but to rush to Celestial Lake City faster.


    Once he entered Celestial Lake City, this follower might disappear.


    Zhou Feng also wanted to take this opportunity to test how fast he could run just by relying on his physical body.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng displayed astonishing control over his physical body.


    While maintaining his terrifying explosive power, he didn¡¯t step on the road under his feet.


    His speed also became faster and faster, showing no signs of stopping. ¡°So strong!¡±


    Seeing this, Jiang Yi again lamented that this person was not simple.


    Then, not wanting to be outdone, he followed behind Zhou Feng.


    Similarly, he did not use any power other than his physical strength.


    When the servants behind Jiang Yi saw this, they had no choice but to chase after them.


    Fortunately, two Pegasi were leading the way. Otherwise, these servants would not be able to catch up to these two people.


    Two strong gusts of wind flew across the road.


    The duo even attracted the attention of the people along the way.


    ¡°Is that¡­ two people?¡± ¡°What are they doing? The carriage behind them seems to be¡­¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t that Young Master Jiang¡¯s carriage? Why didn¡¯t he take the carriage¡­¡±


    ¡°Did Young Master Jiang find a new friend?¡±


    ¡°I wonder if Young Master Jiang will run away suddenly this time!¡±


    As they got closer to Celestial Lake City, more and more people appeared on the main road.


    Since flying swords consumed Spiritual Qi, most cultivators used spirit beasts as the main means of transportation.


    It was very common for spirit beasts to pull carts. It had even become a common practice.


    Therefore, these people were naturally interested when they saw Zhou Feng and Jiang Yi running on the main road.


    Of course, most of them still went for Jiang Yi¡¯s name.


    After all, Jiang Yi was a direct descendant of the Jiang Clan. Moreover, he had monstrous talent. He had comprehended three divine abilities in less than 20 years.


    He had even comprehended the divine abilities of his clan to the great stage.


    Also, legend had it that if it weren¡¯t for Jiang Yi wanting to comprehend the Sharpness Dao, he would have long been able to transform into a dragon.


    He would transform his body and advance to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    After that, he would be able to go to the Eastern Land and compete with the truly monstrous geniuses. He could even participate in the so-called Great Dao Discussion.


    However, although Jiang Yi¡¯s aptitude and strength were outstanding, everyone also talked about his eccentric personality and thoughts.


    Not only was he keen on making friends, but he was also very keen on helping the weak cultivators.


    He even harbored the terrifying thoughts that everyone was born equal.


    To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for Jiang Yi¡¯s strong background and strength, he would have been killed long ago.

 Chapter 324 - Immortal Civilization

    Chapter 324 Immortal Civilization


    ¡®Almost there¡­!


    Although Zhou Feng had never been to Celestial Lake City before, he knew that he wasn¡¯t far from it.


    As he looked at the increasing number of people around him, he could tell they weren¡¯t far from Celestial Lake City.


    The Purple Mansion cultivators were in the majority, and so were the Divine Ability cultivators.


    Originally, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation base was at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm, and he could be considered a minor expert.


    In Heavenly Star City, he could be considered one of the top cultivators.


    Other than those Divine Ability geniuses, the ones behind him were only in the Purple Mansion realm.


    But here, there were actually so many Divine Ability cultivators?


    Didn¡¯t they say that it was challenging to break through to the Divine Ability realm?


    There was also one more thing. The surrounding cultivators all had obvious characteristics.


    Almost everyone had a sharp aura, and there was a sword on their waist or back.


    People like Zhou Feng were the minority here.


    ¡®He isn¡¯t tired at all?¡¯


    Looking at Zhou Fengyu¡¯s face, which hadn¡¯t changed much, Jiang Yi revealed a hint of fatigue because he kept running at such a high speed.


    Moreover, he had to rely on his physical body to keep his aura from leaking out.


    It was fine for a short period, but even Jiang Yi was a little tired after a long period.


    After all, Jiang Yi didn¡¯t specialize in cultivating the physical body. He spent most of his time studying the Sharpness Dao and Sword Dao.


    If he could use his divine power, he could arrive at Celestial Lake City in an extremely short time.


    However, Jiang Yi insisted on doing the same as Zhou Feng. He relied solely on the power of his physical body to run wildly on the road.


    He didn¡¯t even use his divine power to eliminate the fatigue of his physical body.


    It could only be said that Jiang Yi was indeed worthy of his nickname, Stubborn Donkey Jiang.


    In the Jade Sword Holy Land, Jiang Yi¡¯s nickname was Stubborn Donkey Jiang.


    He would often get to a dead end when he was certain of something. Then, he wouldn¡¯t turn around even if he was dead. Even if it were wrong, he would still do


    it.


    This kind of strange temper was also famous.


    ¡®I¡¯m here!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care what Jiang Yi wanted to do.


    A majestic city slowly appeared in front of him.


    The winding and irregular city wall was like a real dragon lying on the earth.


    Even when he saw this majestic city, Zhou Feng felt a pressure on his body.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi seemed to be locked.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t move the surrounding Spiritual Qi as usual!


    He couldn¡¯t even absorb the floating Spiritual Qi.


    Suffocation!


    For cultivators who had just arrived at Celestial Lake City, this feeling was as if they were suffocating.


    They simply couldn¡¯t use their full strength.


    Appraising Eye!


    Zhou Feng used the Appraising Eye on a whim.


    [Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation: A very special formation that must rely on Sect Qi to operate as the formation¡¯s eye.


    Once set up, it can suppress all the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings and suppress the strength of all cultivators.


    One can unleash all their strength in this formation by carrying a special token.]


    ¡®This is a super formation? It directly covers the entire Celestial Lake City! Including all the places near Celestial Lake City?¡¯


    Big deal! This was what a big deal was!


    With such a super formation around, one would have to pay a huge price if they wanted to cause trouble in Celestial Lake City.


    And because all of the cultivators¡¯ strength had been suppressed to a certain limit, the safety of Celestial Lake City was guaranteed.


    After all, as the level of the cultivators continued to rise, if there were no restrictions, any random Purple Mansion cultivator would be able to destroy a city.


    Clearly, this massive formation was one of the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s safeguards.


    It was to ensure the safety of Celestial Lake City and prevent other cultivators from causing trouble.


    m


    ore


    Only a safe environment could attract more people.


    As expected, Heavenly Star City was a rural area.


    Without the suppression of such a huge formation, just relying on the so-called city guards wouldn¡¯t be reliable.


    If there were an accident, it would easily cause the residents of the city to be injured.


    Such an unsafe city with huge hidden dangers wouldn¡¯t be able to develop.


    Zhou Feng could already imagine it.


    Those cities that were even more majestic than Celestial Lake City would definitely have even more powerful formations suppressing these unruly cultivators.


    And this was the most barren region of the Southern Border. What kind of scene would this be if this was the Eastern Land or the Central Plains?


    The closer he got to Celestial Lake City, the more Zhou Feng felt the pressure on his body gradually increase.


    ¡®With such a huge formation, they don¡¯t even need a guard!¡±


    Zhou Feng walked to the city gate and slowly stopped.


    There wasn¡¯t even a guard at the city gate. It was just open like that.


    Naturally, with such a huge formation, there was no need for a guard at all. Walking to the city gate, Zhou Feng felt that his strength had been suppressed to the extreme.


    One had to know that this kind of great formation had such a great pressure effect even on his physical body.


    If it were any other normal cultivator, how much would their strength be suppressed?


    In any case, it was impossible to fly near Celestial Lake City.


    There was no need to take the initiative to restrict it. With this kind of suppressive formation, if you could fly, it meant that you were at least in the Dragon Transformation realm.


    ¡°Celestial Lake City is still as oppressive as before!¡±


    Jiang Yi walked to Zhou Feng¡¯s side and heaved a light sigh of relief.


    He could finally rest!


    However, it was very obvious that Jiang Yi didn¡¯t really like this super formation.


    After saying that, Jiang Yi took out a small sword-shaped jade pendant.


    ¡°This is much more comfortable!¡±


    After taking out that sword-shaped jade pendant, the restriction on Jiang Yi¡¯s body was instantly removed.


    His entire body became relaxed. It was obvious that this was the Jade Sword disciples¡¯ privilege.


    Moreover, it was a privilege that only core disciples had.


    As for the others, they could only silently endure the formation¡¯s suppression.


    Still, they weren¡¯t always suppressed like this in Celestial Lake City.


    The inns or houses in the city didn¡¯t have this kind of suppression. They all had a special supply of Spiritual Qi, which was used for the cultivation of various cultivators.


    However, the inns and houses in Celestial Lake City were all the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s assets.


    In order to obtain a property in Celestial Lake City, one had to use the contribution points of the Jade Sword Holy Land to exchange for it.


    At the same time, the contribution points required for an outsider to exchange for a property were doubled.


    Obviously, this was intentional!


    If the Jade Sword Holy Land wanted to maintain a super formation like the Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation and it had to be active at all times, the number of resources and Spirit Stones required would definitely be massive.


    Then where would these resources and Spirit Stones come from?


    They had to come from the cultivators who lived in Celestial Lake City.


    This was a chain of links.


    There were so many cultivators in Celestial Lake City. This was simply too amazing!


    No wonder it was called a holy land. The Jade Sword Holy Land controlled many cities like Celestial Lake City, so the number of resources they absorbed every year was massive.


    After using this massive amount of resources to nurture their disciples, the strength of their disciples would also skyrocket.


    Then, they would have enough experts protecting such a foundation.


    This was a virtuous cycle.


    ¡®It really resembles an immortal civilization¡­¡¯


    After Zhou Feng learned all this, it was an eye-opener.

 Chapter 325 - The Embodiment of Professional Cultivators

    Chapter 325 The Embodiment of Professional Cultivators


    ¡°Interesting! Take this! Don¡¯t tell me you don¡¯t need it! This thing can allow you to participate in the Celestial Lake Conference.¡±


    Jiang Yi, who had followed Zhou Feng all the way, arrived at Celestial Lake City.


    He could no longer follow behind Zhou Feng.


    As a core Jade Sword disciple, there were still many things that Jiang Yi needed to handle.


    Not to mention, there were also disciples from other holy lands coming to this Celestial Lake Conference.


    Jiang Yi definitely needed to go and hold down the fort.


    However, he was still very interested in Zhou Feng.


    From his performance just now, it seemed that this was a friend worth making.


    As for why it was worth making friends with, no one knew what Jiang Yi was thinking.


    Zhou Feng looked at the small jade sword and knew it was definitely a keepsake.


    ¡°The Celestial Lake Conference¡­¡¯


    He hesitated for a moment.


    If he could participate in this so-called Celestial Lake Conference, then the chances of obtaining those auxiliary breakthroughs would be much higher.


    Such an opportunity was placed in front of him.


    If he didn¡¯t grasp it, he would simply be a fool.


    As for Jiang Yi¡¯s inexplicable goodwill, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t understand it.


    It wouldn¡¯t do him any harm anyway.


    In that case, there was no need to hesitate.


    It was just that this escape route needed to be planned!


    Zhou Feng felt that this Celestial Lake Conference would cause a lot of trouble, so he had to make escape plans later.


    ¡°Thank you!¡±


    After thinking through this point, he didn¡¯t hesitate and took the token from Jiang Yi¡¯s hand.


    ¡°Very good! I have high hopes for you!¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s face revealed a carefree expression as Zhou Feng took the token from his hand.


    At least he didn¡¯t think as much as those people. This kind of straightforward personality was very to his liking.


    After that, Jiang Yi walked to the center of Celestial Lake City.


    Just Like Heavenly Star City, although Celestial Lake City had a super great formation suppressing it, it was also divided into many regions. There was also an outer and inner city.


    Zhou Feng was currently in the outer city, and the people living there were basically natives.


    These natives had been living there for more than ten generations ago.


    Each generation provided a stable source of disciples for the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    And with each generation of transformation, the aptitude of these natives had reached a terrifying level.


    Almost all natives had enough aptitude to cultivate to the Purple Mansion realm.


    This was completely different from those ordinary people. After all, aptitude and bloodline could be passed down steadily.


    The surname of the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s Sect Leader hadn¡¯t changed for a long time.


    These natives occupied most of the positions in Celestial Lake City.


    As for wanderers like Zhou Feng, who came here from the outside, they could only live in a corner.


    There was a place that provided accommodation for wanderers like Zhou Feng.


    Right now, he was heading to that place.


    Zhou Feng learned these things after spending some Spirit Stones.


    Someone was selling a booklet at the city gate, and it recorded a lot of things to pay attention to in Celestial Lake City.


    The first rule was never to provoke those natives.


    Those natives were not only powerful but also related to each other.


    If you bullied one person, there would be a group of people looking for trouble behind your back.


    ¡®The natives have very few children, one or two per family¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the information in the booklet, and a strange expression appeared on his face.


    The Celestial Lake natives seemed to have adopted the strategy of having fewer but better children.


    This was probably to ensure the inheritance of the bloodline and the distribution of cultivation resources.


    If they had a few more children, even the natives would find it difficult to support the massive amount of cultivation resources.


    After all, cultivation required a lot of cultivation resources at the later stages.


    It was enough for a family to provide a cultivator.


    Moreover, there was never a saying that cultivation resources were sufficient.


    This was because after generations of cultivators passed on, their aptitude would inevitably become better and better.


    Therefore, the next generation would definitely choose to strive for a higher realm.


    Only with sufficient resources could they strive for a higher realm.


    Therefore, only one child would be born, and then the resources would be saved.


    The next generation would slowly strive for a higher realm.


    This was the strategy of the Celestial Lake natives, and it was precisely because of this that the children of these natives were all extremely precious.


    This¡­¡¯ When Zhou Feng saw this, he didn¡¯t know what to say.


    It was too terrifying! The natives of Celestial Lake City were simply too scary.


    Wouldn¡¯t the Celestial Lake natives become stronger with each generation if this plan was carried out perfectly?


    Even if a lot of people were eliminated, how strong would those who remained be?


    Moreover, the most terrifying point was the geniuses nurtured by the natives.


    Almost all of them would be absorbed by the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng further understood the terror of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Compared to these cultivators who had succeeded generation after generation, Zhou Feng felt that even if he had the skill panel, he wouldn¡¯t have much of an advantage against these people.


    Aptitude, talent, and bloodline!


    He did not have an advantage in these three aspects.


    Furthermore, these people basically had the backing of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Could Zhou Feng be able to compete against these people alone?


    For some reason, his heart felt heavy.


    ¡®That¡¯s not right! Why should I compete with these people? My goal is only to live forever!¡¯


    Although Zhou Feng felt that he was getting into a tight spot, he didn¡¯t necessarily have to compete with these perverts. In any case, his goal was to live forever.


    Zhou Feng used this excuse to calm down his emotions.


    Unfortunately, he couldn¡¯t avoid contact with these people.


    The cultivation resources in this world were fixed, and he wanted to go one step further.


    Other people also wanted to go one step further, so it was hard to avoid conflicts. It was just a matter of time.


    ¡®I¡¯d better find a place to live first.¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think too much for the time being.


    What was in front of him now was how to integrate into this vast city.


    If nothing unexpected happened, Zhou Feng would stay in Celestial Lake City for some time.


    At the very least, he would consider leaving this place after breaking through to the Divine Ability realm.


    This was because it was the most convenient place to obtain all kinds of spiritual items and find new divine ability cultivation methods.


    And with his current strength, he could only muddle along in this kind of place.


    If he directly went to places like the Eastern Land or the Central Plains, he might not even have the ability to protect himself.


    He had heard that the competition in the Central Plains was even more fierce.


    That was because there were plenty of holy lands and aristocratic families gathered there.


    Those holy lands and aristocratic families had at least a few thousand years of inheritance.


    How terrifying would it be if it was passed down from generation to generation? Given Zhou Feng¡¯s current strength, going to a place like the Central Plains would be no different than courting death.


    Since that was the case, he might as well stay in Celestial Lake City for a few years.


    During this period, Zhou Feng had basically not stopped running around. He hadn¡¯t lived in one place for more than a year.


    Now it was time to settle down.

 Chapter 326 - Female Daemons

    Chapter 326 Female Daemons


    After a while, Zhou Feng finally found a place to stay in Celestial Lake City, a house with a small courtyard.


    Although it wasn¡¯t very big, it was suitable for a person to live alone.


    The most important thing was that this house had a small courtyard and a water tank in the courtyard.


    It was very in line with Zhou Feng¡¯s taste.


    The only troublesome thing was that although this small house was in a remote location, the price was very high.


    1,000 Jade Sword Coins were needed per month.


    This Jade Sword Coin was a kind of currency forged by the Jade Sword Holy Land, and it had a special mark and aura inside.


    It was basically very difficult to imitate, and the exchange ratio with Spirit Stones was 1:10.


    1 Jade Sword Coin could be exchanged for 10 standard Spirit Stones.


    In other words, Zhou Feng had to pay 10,000 Spirit Stones as the room fee every month.


    It was simply ridiculous!


    This simple house only cost 10,000 Spirit Stones per month.


    There were so many houses in Celestial Lake City, and all of them were the assets of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    How many Spirit Stones did they collect every month?


    ¡®So damn expensive!


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but feel a pang in his heart.


    Although the suppression of the Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation finally disappeared in this house, and it even had quite a bit of Spiritual Qi supply, it was still quite a bit lacking compared to the unit price of 10,000 Spirit Stones.


    However, this wasn¡¯t without any benefits.


    As long as he rented this house, it meant that Zhou Feng would become a temporary resident of Celestial Lake City.


    Many conveniences followed. For example, he could accept some of the missions issued by the City Lord Manor.


    The missions issued by the City Lord Manor varied, but without exception, the rewards were very generous.


    Many foreign cultivators put in a lot of effort to become residents of Celestial Lake City.


    It was largely because of these missions.


    As long as they could accept the missions distributed by the Jade Sword Holy Land, they would be able to obtain stable Spirit Stones.


    This was a critical matter for most cultivators.


    This was because most cultivators didn¡¯t have any other skills apart from fighting.


    But here in Celestial Lake City, would you be able to defeat the Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation even if you were able to fight?


    Not to mention Purple Mansion cultivators, even Divine Ability experts could only obediently kneel here.


    Thus, obtaining a stable amount of Spirit Stones was something that most vagabond cultivators had to consider.


    In fact, from a certain point of view, those vagabond cultivators who lived in Celestial Lake City could already be considered non-staff members of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    In addition to accepting missions, there were many medicinal pills, secret manuals, techniques, spiritual artifacts, and other things.


    They also needed proof of residence in Celestial Lake City to be able to purchase them.


    Of course, this was only limited to shops that the Jade Sword Holy Land specially opened.


    The shops opened by other vagabond cultivators were not within this limited scope.


    It was naturally possible to open a shop in Celestial Lake City. Compared to the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s own shops, vagabond cultivators had to pay a fixed tax to open a shop here.


    In other words, regardless of whether there was a profit or not, they had to pay a fixed amount of Spirit Stones every month.


    Zhou Feng actually intended to resume his old business and rely on pill refinement to earn some Spirit Stones.


    That was why he had chosen to rent this house with a small courtyard.


    ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect it. I¡¯m actually going to run around for Spirit Stones¡­¡¯


    He shook his head and began to plan how to earn more Spirit Stones.


    During this period, the effect of Zhou Feng¡¯s soul travel to the great void was not good at all.


    It seemed that without the assistance of spiritual items, breaking through to the Divine Ability realm could only be an extravagant hope.


    And spiritual items that assisted the soul travel to the great void were basically costly. Therefore, earning Spirit Stones became Zhou Feng¡¯s primary task.


    Fortunately, he was not in a hurry now. In any case, he did not have any enemies now.


    His lifespan was also very long. He could completely experience life slowly.


    ¡®Also, the Celestial Lake Conference will be held on these two days. There¡¯s no rush.¡¯


    Zhou Feng was not familiar with many of Celestial Lake City¡¯s rules. If he opened his shop rashly, he would likely end up losing everything


    He might as well go for a stroll in the next few days.


    Then, after attending the Celestial Lake Conference and the Celestial Lake Auction, he would see what to do.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng could not help but think of the keepsake that Jiang Yi had given him.


    This keepsake could be said to be worth 1,000 coins. This thing was equivalent to a ticket.


    After all, this Celestial Lake Conference was not something just anyone could participate


    in.


    Other than the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s own distribution, there was also a need to use Spirit Stones to buy it.


    It was said to be sold for at least 100,000 Spirit Stones sold outside. There was a price but no market.


    ¡°Forget it. Big Yellow, let¡¯s go out for a walk.¡±


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to think too much, so he brought Big Yellow out for a walk.


    Celestial Lake City was extremely lively at this time because of the Celestial Lake Conference.


    A large number of cultivators poured into Celestial Lake City.


    With more people, it would naturally stimulate consumption.


    There were all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street.


    These stalls were fixed, and they also had to pay a fixed tax every day.


    And even so, many stalls couldn¡¯t be taken down without a certain relationship.


    This kind of meticulous management was simply comparable to the big cities in Zhou Feng¡¯s previous life.


    It was completely different from the rough management method of Heavenly Star City.


    In any case, Celestial Lake City gave Zhou Feng a terrifying feeling.


    He could squeeze out a large amount of Spirit Stones as much as possible.


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­ a Daemon?¡±


    Zhou Feng brought Big Yellow and wandered around the streets like an old cadre. Then, he saw a few Daemons.


    Speaking of land Daemons, he was not as familiar with them as he was with aquatic creatures.


    After all, whether it was Heavenly Star City or Celestial Lake City, they were all surrounded by human territory.


    There were no Daemons at all.


    Now, he finally saw the real land Daemons.


    They saw two young girls tied together, with a pair of rabbit ears on their heads, looking very pitiful.


    ¡®Appraising Eye, open.¡¯ [Female Snow Rabbil: A Snow Rabbit with a highly ordinary bloodline that can take human form. Its strength is low, but it can produce a special kind of fur.


    This kind of fur can withstand extremely low temperatures.)


    The Appraising Eye is indeed powerful.


    Zhou Feng thought, ¡®These two girls are actually Snow Rabbits in human form. They were captured by human cultivators and are sold here.¡¯


    Capturing Daemon slaves was a very normal practice in the eyes of human cultivators.


    It was even the same in the eyes of the Daemons.


    That was because the Daemons also long-term captured human slaves to their own territory.


    However, the Daemon slaves captured by human cultivators were usually lower-level Daemons like the Snow Rabbit because of safety issues.


    They were basically used as female slaves or maidservants.


    As for powerful Daemons, only those mighty figures dared to capture them.


    After all, everyone was afraid that these Daemons would suddenly bite their master one day.


    ¡°There isn¡¯t much Demonic Qi. This look of pity is quite attractive!¡±


    ¡°Indeed! They look like twins! This is quite rare!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! And they can produce fur. They aren¡¯t completely useless¡­¡±


    Before Zhou Feng arrived, there were already many cultivators gathered there.


    They started to comment while Zhou Feng hid behind to watch the show.


    After all, this kind of practice was new to him.

 Chapter 327 - "Is Snow Rabbit Meat Delicious?"

    Chapter 327 ¡°Is Snow Rabbit Meat Delicious?¡±


    It was a very novel thing for Zhou Feng to see Daemon girls for sale on the street.


    Therefore, he stood aside to see what was going on.


    After the stall owner¡¯s introduction, quite a few people in the vicinity were interested in the twins.


    The main point was that twins were relatively rare. The twins were first-class in both appearance and figure.


    ¡°You only need 2,000 Jade Sword Coins to get them! And if you use Spirit Stones to pay, you can get a 10% discount!¡±


    The stall owner decided it was the right time to announce the price.


    One only needed 2,000 Jade Sword Coins to bring the two sisters home.


    This was equivalent to two months¡¯ rent for Zhou Feng. If one looked at the price alone, it was indeed not too expensive.


    However, it was not something that an ordinary cultivator could afford.


    This was because if the two girls were bought back home, it would mean that one would have two more mouths to feed.


    They were weak, so they couldn¡¯t work.


    They could only be raised as canaries. Moreover, if they were to raise Daemons, they would need to go to the City Lord Manor to get a certificate.


    If one did not have a small fortune, they would not be able to afford a bunch of troublesome matters.


    For example, Zhou Feng had enough trouble raising Big Yellow.


    Fortunately, he had killed a Jade Sword disciple. He still had a lot of Spirit Stones, or else he wouldn¡¯t even be able to pay the rent.


    ¡°2,000?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s a bit expensive! That¡¯s right! It¡¯s just that it doesn¡¯t need to be so expensive to warm your feet!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Although they¡¯re twins¡­¡±


    Obviously, such a high price had persuaded many people to leave.


    Seeing this, the stall owner did not panic at all.


    ¡°These are rare twin sisters! If you miss them, you¡¯ll regret it!¡±


    As the stall owner spoke, he formed a sword finger, and a sharp aura began to revolve around him.


    Rip!


    The sound of clothes being torn echoed instantly.


    The clothes on the twin sisters were torn apart.


    Other than their close-fitting clothes, large patches of snow-white skin were exposed.


    They could already tell that the twins had good figures when they had their clothes.


    Now, their figures were even hotter.


    Their white chrysanthemums were so dazzling that they made people dizzy.


    Moreover, the twin sisters exuded a hint of charm.


    This should be the charm power bestowed by their bloodline.


    This was because other powerful demonic beasts would bully low-level demonic beasts like the Snow Rabbit. Thus, their bloodline evolved with traces of charm power.


    Whenever they encountered a crisis, they would sacrifice themselves to the powerful demonic beasts in order to survive.


    This could be considered a survival strategy, and it was extremely effective.


    The pair of sisters had tears in their eyes. Their fiery figures, coupled with their pitiful appearance, truly made one¡¯s heart soften.


    Many of the surrounding cultivators were tempted. If they could keep the twin slave girls, it would be a beautiful story if it was spread in the future.


    ¡°The power of charm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was expressionless.


    He just watched coldly from the side and didn¡¯t say anything.


    It formed a sharp contrast with the people around him.


    His appearance instantly attracted the attention of the sisters.


    If they fell into the hands of these humans, their future days would definitely be dark.


    However, there was no lack of kind-hearted people among the humans. It would be easy to gain sympathy as long as they acted pitifully.


    The sisters firmly remembered the above words.


    Therefore, when they saw Zhou Feng¡¯s calm expression, they naturally thought Zhou Feng was a soft-hearted person.


    Compared to the other lecherous ghosts, he was naturally much better.


    Of course, there was one more point to add. Zhou Feng was much more handsome than the other cultivators.


    Not only in terms of appearance but also in terms of temperament, he was a lot more handsome than the others.


    In any case, they would be trampled by the humans in the end, so they might as well find someone more handsome.


    Therefore, this pair of sisters looked at Zhou Feng together, their eyes filled with a trace of anticipation.


    Although they did not speak, the meaning was already self-evident.


    When the stall owner saw this, he also followed the gaze of the pair of sisters to look at Zhou Feng, and his eyes immediately lit up. ¡°Daemons! This pair of twin sisters is just right for your identity!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng looked heroic and extraordinary. No matter how one looked at it, he looked like the legitimate son of a large clan. He was definitely rich.


    The moment the stall owner opened his mouth, Zhou Feng, who had been hiding at the side, instantly became the focus of everyone¡¯s attention.


    This was something that Zhou Feng had never expected. These twin sisters actually wanted to ask him for help?


    Moreover, the surrounding cultivators were really stunned by Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance.


    His handsome appearance was somewhat exaggerated, and he also had a mysterious yet erratic aura. No matter how one looked at him, he seemed to be someone with a great background.


    For the sake of this pair of Daemon girls, it wasn¡¯t worth offending such a person.


    In addition, many geniuses and evildoers had recently come to Celestial Lake City.


    Perhaps this person was a disciple of a holy land, and it was best not to offend him.


    With this mentality, none of the surrounding cultivators immediately spoke.


    They only waited for Zhou Feng to speak first. If he wanted them, then the others wouldn¡¯t fight.


    In the end, these twins were just playthings.


    They weren¡¯t spiritual objects that could raise one¡¯s cultivation level, so they weren¡¯t worth getting angry over.


    After cultivating to the Purple Mansion realm, most of the cultivators were actually quite rational.


    They wouldn¡¯t get angry just because of a momentary dispute.


    Naturally, they wouldn¡¯t get slapped in the face because of a bidding war. ¡°Is Snow Rabbit meat delicious?¡±


    Under the gaze of the surrounding cultivators, Zhou Feng only gave a faint reply.


    To ask him to buy the twins?


    Putting aside whether or not he had the Spirit Stones, he wouldn¡¯t do so even if he did.


    One had to know that back in the Southern Sea, he had almost taken a true dragon as his wife.


    Yet, he had taken the opportunity to slip out just like that. Although the twins were a little beautiful, that was all.


    They did not pique his interest at all.


    As for pity? After crawling out from the Tri-Gu Sect, he had long since lost such a thing


    He was standing here just to watch the show.


    Another thing was that after cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, Zhou Feng had become a bit of a humanist.


    If the twins were humans, he might entertain the idea of saving them.


    As for non-humans, he might as well forget about it.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s cold words, coupled with his cold face, instantly enlightened the surrounding cultivators.


    It seemed that this was an extreme humanist cultivator.


    The other human cultivators were fine, but the twins were scared out of their wits.


    Their entire bodies began to tremble. They didn¡¯t expect this seemingly friendly human cultivator to be the most ferocious one.


    ¡°This¡­ I haven¡¯t tried it before. Only a Great Daemon is worthy of the identity of a Daemon!¡±


    A trace of pity flashed through the eyes of the stall owner upon seeing that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t interested.


    Then, he changed the topic and continued selling on the street.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the interest to continue watching. Thus, he turned around and walked down the street.


    He planned to see if he could use the Appraising Eye to pick up treasures.


    At the same time, he would investigate the market to see if his pill refinement skills were good enough.

 Chapter 328 - The Immortal Lake!

    Chapter 328 The Immortal Lake!


    After the incident with the twin sisters, Zhou Feng took a stroll around Celestial Lake City.


    Overall, the development of Celestial Lake City was indeed very good.


    All kinds of spiritual artifacts and the use of Spiritual Qi had reached a very high level.


    What surprised him the most was that Celestial Lake City actually had a law specifically protecting mortals.


    It was to prevent cultivators from disturbing mortals. This was what surprised Zhou Feng the most.


    There was no such a law back in Heavenly Star City, after all.


    As for the law? There was no such thing. The city guards only maintained basic order.


    There was only a competition to see whose fist was bigger. Therefore, the mortals living near Heavenly Star City were actually very bitter.


    As such, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect that there was a law here in Celestial Lake City that specifically protected mortals.


    This was a little different!


    Obviously, the Jade Sword higher-ups were playing a big game of chess.


    But these things didn¡¯t have much to do with him.


    At present, Zhou Feng only wanted to earn some Spirit Stones and then break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    After a simple market investigation, he found that the situation wasn¡¯t very friendly to him.


    There were all kinds of shops selling pills in Celestial Lake City.


    There were even a large number of Pill Masters. These Pill Masters came from various forces and basically changed their jobs to pill refinement.


    Some Pill Master families had even passed down their legacies for more than a dozen generations.


    This was the same as those cultivators who passed down their jobs.


    They were all rooted in Celestial Lake City and relied on the protection provided by Celestial Lake City.


    The art of pill refinement had reached a peak from generation to generation.


    Even though Zhou Feng had the passive Skill Proficiency, it was hard, but not impossible, to compete with these Pill Masters.


    If Zhou Feng was determined, he should be able to break out of a small world.


    However, the price he had to pay was to waste his cultivation time.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude wasn¡¯t that great, to begin with. If he wasted his time on refining pills, it wouldn¡¯t be worth it. Thus, Zhou Feng gave up on refining pills after some thought.


    In any case, now that his strength had increased, there were many ways to obtain Spirit Stones.


    Another thing was that Zhou Feng¡¯s current strength was very confusing.


    Although he was only in the Purple Mansion realm, he relied on all sorts of passive skills. His true strength was at least comparable to a cultivator who had just entered the Divine Ability realm.


    There were quite a few points that could be manipulated.


    For example, the law enforcement of fishing. Why had Zhou Feng never lacked Spirit Stones before?


    It was all because numerous people had delivered themselves to his doorstep.


    There wasn¡¯t even a need for him to take the initiative to attack, as a large number of people would come looking for trouble with him.


    In the end, he would counterattack, and the Spirit Stones on these people would become his.


    Although this method was very risky, it was too great.


    as


    If it was really not possible, Zhou Feng could do the same.


    ¡°The most important thing now is still the Celestial Lake Conference!¡¯


    During this period, Zhou Feng contemplated until he came up with many plans.


    The escape route was also temporarily planned out.


    He even wanted to crack the spirit-locking formation in Celestial Lake City.


    After all, if he didn¡¯t solve the spirit-locking formation, escaping would be a big problem.


    But now, he put all these things aside.


    Because the Celestial Lake Conference was about to begin.


    The date of the Celestial Lake Conference was today. At that time, all the invited cultivators could go to the immortal lake in the center of Celestial Lake City.


    The pattern was similar to the Heavenly Star Gathering


    A group of cultivators would gather together to communicate with each other. After that, it a competition would follow.


    The winner would have the opportunity to bathe in the immortal lake.


    This was the general process. After bathing in the immortal lake, it would be time for the auction to start.


    After that would be the exchange meeting. All the cultivators gathered there would be able to exchange their own spiritual items.


    This model had actually existed for a long time.


    With this immortal lake, Celestial Lake City earned a lot of money almost every year.


    Compared to the price, paying a few spots to bathe in the immortal lake was a drop in the bucket.


    Because today was the opening day of Celestial Lake City.


    Therefore, today was especially lively. The other disciples of the holy lands arrived at the right time.


    Almost all of these people came flying in carriages.


    There were also a few Flood Dragons pulling the carriages.


    For a time, all sorts of strange phenomena appeared in the entire Celestial Lake City.


    The sky was in chaos for a time, and lotus flowers bloomed. In addition, the sky suddenly became gloomy, and a baleful aura soared to the sky.


    Every time such a strange phenomenon occurred, it meant that an expert had descended here.


    The most terrifying time was when the entire sky became pitch-black, and endless darkness descended on the entire immortal lake.


    The surroundings seemed to have turned into an abyss without the slightest bit of light.


    Even sound could not be transmitted, and in the end, it was a huge sky-reaching sword in the center of the city that tore open the boundless darkness.


    Only then did the entire Celestial Lake City¡¯s cultivators regain their light.


    That was definitely a battle between the other holy lands and the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    That boundless darkness was a test.


    If the Jade Sword Holy Land had no way of breaking open, the outcome might have been different.


    Zhou Feng also took this opportunity to see what a true cultivator was.


    Compared to these cultivators, the cultivators he had seen before were nothing.


    And he himself had become much more cautious, even with all kinds of passive protection.


    He also seemed to be a bit weak. Previously, he was confident that he could fight against cultivators who had just entered the Divine Ability realm.


    However, could he really fight against those disciples of the holy lands who had surpassed his level?


    Zhou Feng expressed his doubts.


    In particular, he had not learned many techniques at all.


    Other than the Human Emperor Scripture, he could actually rely on his own creations, the heaven-bestowed Invincible Fist¡¯s three punches, as well as the Longevity Breathing Technique that he had suddenly comprehended in the Southern Sea.


    Other than that, the only things he could rely on were passive skills and his powerful physical body.


    This was the drawback of being a vagabond cultivator. There were many arts and techniques that he did not have the chance to come into contact with.


    However, Zhou Feng knew the consequences of being a vagabond cultivator.


    Such a situation could be predicted.


    If he could not fight, then he would use the physical body method. He did not believe that he would be trapped in the same realm all the time with all kinds of passive buffs.


    Moreover, his aptitude was not good at all. He cultivated so many techniques.


    In the end, he might as well focus on one Dao.


    If he kept improving his physical body, it could be done!


    Before attending the Celestial Lake Conference, Zhou Feng had thought about how he should participate.


    Should he cover his face and participate in a low-key manner or participate in a high-key manner?


    This was a question that was very worth thinking about because once he participated, it was very likely that he would unknowingly offend someone.


    Therefore, considering that Zhou Feng was connected in the end, he directly maintained his original state and did as he was supposed to.


    ¡®Is this the immortal lake?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the huge lake that didn¡¯t fit in with the surrounding buildings and felt an astonishing amount of Spiritual Qi.


    His physical body began to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Qi greedily.


    ¡®This Spiritual Qi seems to be different from the outside world?¡¯


    It seemed to have the effect of nourishing the physical body?


    He now understood why Celestial Lake City would welcome so many cultivators today.


    Just by taking a closer look, Zhou Feng felt his entire physical body cheering.


    Was this the top cultivation resource that the Jade Sword Holy Land possessed?


    Compared to outsiders who needed to compete, the Jade Sword disciples probably had many opportunities to bathe in the immortal lake!

 Chapter 329 - Debuts in Turns

    Chapter 329 Debuts in Turns


    The immortal lake located in the center of the Celestial Lake City seemed directly connected.


    A hazy aura surrounded the immortal lake. The ancient aura didn¡¯t fit in with the surrounding buildings.


    Under the illumination of the morning glow, the immortal lake shot out seven-colored rays of light.


    The wisps of special Spiritual Qi nourished the surroundings.


    It was said that in order to protect this immortal lake, the Jade Sword Holy Land had used various resources, had invited the Formation Masters of the Central Plains to restrain a few spirit veins, and had coordinated with the supreme great formation to preserve this immortal lake.


    Moreover, a large amount of Spirit Stones had to be invested every year in order to maintain this immortal lake.


    Even so, this immortal lake was still slowly drying up.


    However, the drying up time was very slow. If nothing unexpected happened, it shouldn¡¯t be a problem to persist for a few hundred years.


    ¡®If I can truly enter this immortal lake and soak in it, my physical body should be able to achieve a huge breakthrough!¡¯


    Zhou Feng continued to absorb the Spiritual Qi emitted from this immortal lake.


    However, he was somewhat expectant in his heart.


    With the help of the immortal lake, he might be able to transform his physical body again.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body had reached a bottleneck long ago.


    No matter how he cultivated, he could only grow a little.


    This was because his cultivation level was stuck there.


    If he didn¡¯t break through to the Divine Ability realm and baptize his physical body with the power of a higher level divine ability, his body would basically not achieve any breakthroughs.


    But this immortal lake was clearly able to let him break through this bottleneck.


    If it was possible, he could take a gamble and get a spot to bathe in the immortal lake during this Celestial Lake Conference.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know anyone there, so he simply found a corner near the immortal lake and slowly tempered his body after taking a stroll around.


    The other cultivators took this opportunity to socialize and exchange information.


    This was a rare gathering of cultivators, and one could obtain a lot of information. There was no need to worry about safety, so this gathering was very lively.


    Among the many cultivators, Zhou Feng seemed to be a bit of a maverick.


    Still, there were always a few mavericks, so he wasn¡¯t too eye-catching.


    ¡°They¡¯re here! The people of the Jade Lake Holy Land are finally here!¡±


    ¡°I wonder which fairy is coming this time?¡±


    ¡°It should be the youngest Fairy Qing Yao!¡±


    ¡°I think it¡¯s possible! After all, Fairy Qing broke through to the Divine Ability realm some time ago, which is a great change in the world. It¡¯s a good time for her to show off!¡±


    All of a sudden, a fragrant aroma filled the air, and countless petals fell from the sky. The seven-colored morning glow also came from the horizon.


    Seeing this, many experienced cultivators immediately knew that the fairies of the Jade Lake Holy Land were coming.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land was one of the holy lands that was as famous as the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Moreover, this holy land mostly had female disciples, and its strength was exceptional. It was considered the number one holy land in the Southern Border.


    There was nothing they could do!


    The Jade Lake fairies all had unparalleled looks and excellent temperaments. They could rope in a bunch of cultivators just by looking for a husband and marrying outside.


    It could be said that the Jade Lake Holy Land had pulled over all the famous vagabond cultivators in the Southern Border.


    In addition, the Jade Lake Holy Land itself was very powerful. It had become the leader of the three holy lands in the Southern Border in just a short while.


    ¡®So powerful!¡¯


    Even Zhou Feng was affected by Fairy Qing¡¯s appearance.


    Different from the other cultivators, he felt a terrifying aura. ¡®Those petals that fall from the sky are not real?


    The petals were condensed by Spiritual Qi and slowly fell from the sky. Before they landed on the ground, the petals had already disappeared.


    Although Fairy Qing had just entered the Divine Ability realm, why did he feel she was so terrifying?


    She was even more powerful than those veteran Divine Ability experts.


    Could this be the difference?


    Not long after, a pure and beautiful woman slowly stepped into the air.


    The clothes on her body were extremely simple. Other than a white gauze skirt, she didn¡¯t have any other clothing.


    She didn¡¯t even have shoes. It was as if a real fairy had descended into the mortal world.


    Moreover, this Fairy Qing didn¡¯t look like she was ice-cold and aloof.


    On the contrary, she looked a little friendly, but it made people unconsciously distance themselves from her.


    This was a very contradictory temperament.


    Of course, the powerful aura hidden behind her back caught Zhou Feng¡¯s attention the most.


    ¡°Haha! You old Jade Lake ladies are really good at putting on airs! Fairy Qing, I wonder how much strength you have compared to your Senior Sisters?¡±


    Fairy Qing had just appeared, yet a single voice ruined this beautiful scene.


    The sky suddenly changed, and a great sun dominated the sky!


    Hot air shot out in all directions, and many people felt their mouths dry up for a moment. ¡°Sima Di! Your Sima Clan is still like this. Do you think that you can hide that little person¡¯s mentality by pretending to be a boorish person?¡±


    Facing Sima Di¡¯s sharp words, Fairy Qing did not hold back at all.


    She directly retorted.


    This Sima Di was from the Great Sun Holy Land, and it was different from the other two holy lands.


    This Great Sun Holy Land could be said to be a clan because regardless of whether it was the Sect Leader or the Elders, they were all members of the Sima Clan.


    Outsiders could at most reach the level below of an Elder in the Great Sun Holy Land.


    It was basically impossible to become an Elder.


    Because of this, the Great Sun Holy Land was also considered the weakest of the three holy lands.


    As such, the Jade Sword Holy Land was the only one among the younger generation of the three holy lands that had yet to appear.


    Today¡¯s Celestial Lake Conference was definitely the stage for the younger generation.


    The older generation naturally would not come out to steal the limelight.


    After all, it was the unspoken rule of the three holy lands to create momentum for the younger generation.


    ¡°The Jade Sword Holy Land seems to have sent a direct descendant of the Jiang Clan this time!¡±


    ¡°It can¡¯t be Young Master Jiang, right? That¡¯s a little¡­¡±


    ¡°It should be. Although Young Master Jiang¡¯s actions are a little strange, his talent is ridiculously high!¡±


    II


    II


    Seeing that Sima Di and Fairy Qing had appeared one after another, logically speaking, it should be about time for the people of the Jade Sword Holy Land to appear.


    If the people of the Jade Sword Holy Land didn¡¯t appear, they could be considered one head lower than the other two holy lands.


    This was a very serious matter.


    ¡°Alright. Since you¡¯re here, then come down. It¡¯s about time for you to come down. Don¡¯t look for trouble!¡±


    As expected, an impatient voice echoed.


    When Zhou Feng heard this voice, he felt that it was somewhat familiar.


    ¡®Jiang Yi? It¡¯s actually him?¡¯


    Compared to the terrifying pomp of those two people, Jiang Yi¡¯s appearance didn¡¯t have the slightest bit of pomp.


    He didn¡¯t even feel the slightest bit of imposing manner, only that impatient voice.


    However, regardless of whether it was Sima Di or Fairy Qing, they both descended from the sky simultaneously.


    At that moment, Jiang Yi slowly appeared. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked impatient.


    ¡®Why can¡¯t I find him? Normally, he should have entered!


    That¡¯s right! Jiang Yi was currently looking for Zhou Feng¡¯s location.


    Later, there was a segment where he needed Zhou Feng as a friend to support him.


    If he couldn¡¯t find this friend, then it would be troublesome!

 Chapter 330 - Spotlight

    Chapter 330 Spotlight


    Although the so-called Celestial Lake Conference was a gathering, it was an opportunity for the three holy lands to display their strength in reality.


    There weren¡¯t only three holy lands in the Southern Border. Other than these three holy lands, there were also many forces and sects, and some of these sects were especially powerful.


    On the surface, their strength wasn¡¯t weaker than these holy lands.


    However, their accumulation was not as strong as those of the holy lands, and they did not have a trump card like those of the holy lands.


    Therefore, in order to intimidate these sects, the three holy lands would hold a gathering in many places almost every year.


    Next was the segment where the various holy lands displayed their strength.


    Many cultivators were also used to this.


    Next, they just needed to watch, and it would be over. However, the Jade Sword Holy Land actually introduced Jiang Yi at this year¡¯s Celestial Lake Conference.


    This surprised many people.


    This was because Jiang Yi was famous for his strange personality.


    A cloud platform slowly rose, directly forming a cage in the air.


    Battle!


    This was something that cultivators couldn¡¯t avoid in their entire lives.


    Therefore, this Celestial Lake Conference naturally required a battle.


    The three great holy lands would take turns sending people to battle on this cloud platform.


    The winner would then decide on the quota to bathe in the immortal lake.


    At this stage, the other factions or vagabond cultivators would be able to go up and battle.


    In the end, in this sort of battle with no rules, five quotas would be chosen.


    These five quotas would be the quota to bathe in the immortal lake.


    Did this sound very ridiculous?


    There were too many things to be considered, such as choosing the right time to go on stage, choosing the right opponent, and so on.


    Without the restrictions of the rules, it could be said that almost everyone had a chance.


    As long as one could take one of the five spots, the process was not important, and the key to getting a spot was a cloud bead.


    As long as one took it, the spot would belong to them.


    The three holy lands had many people. Under normal circumstances, they would fight one-on-one on the cloud platform and then choose different people to challenge.


    This was because once they went up for a free-for-all battle, the disciples of the three holy lands would definitely swarm up.


    Therefore, the quota for bathing in the immortal lake was actually divided up among the three holy lands.


    Occasionally, only a few vagabond cultivators would have the chance to enjoy the wonders of this immortal lake.


    ¡°I wonder if there¡¯s a chance to fight for the remaining two quotas.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t think there¡¯s a chance! Fairy Qing and the other two people directly occupied three spots! The remaining spots are too difficult to fight for!¡±


    ¡°That might not be the case. There might be a chance in the end!¡±


    Jiang Yi and the other two people automatically occupied three spots by default, so all the cultivators present would be fighting for two spots. ¡®Even the weakest is in the Divine Ability realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the surrounding cultivators and frowned slightly.


    It seemed that bathing in the immortal lake wasn¡¯t an easy task.


    Those who participated in the competition were all in the Divine Ability realm, and there were very few in the Purple Mansion realm.


    This meant that he was naturally at a disadvantage.


    He was able to go against the flow of many Divine Ability cultivators with his Purple Mansion cultivation, but standing out from the crowd?


    Just thinking about it was extremely difficult.


    If there was no need, he would still hide at the side!


    Zhou Feng had already made up his mind to hide well and not attempt it.


    (If you have problems with this website, please continue reading your novel on our new website webnovel.site THANKS!)


    But just as he was thinking this¡­


    Jiang Yi¡¯s eyes lit up because he had discovered Zhou Feng.


    ¡°My friend! I finally found you!¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s entire body suddenly moved, and he teleported to Zhou Feng¡¯s side in the blink of an eye.


    Jiang Yi had appeared by Zhou Feng¡¯s side before the latter could react.


    What followed were the gazes of countless people.


    ¡°Who is that person?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know him. This person has actually become friends with Young Master Jiang? He cannot be underestimated!¡±


    ¡°Young Master Jiang actually made friends?¡±


    ¡°Purple Mansion realm? Could it be that he¡¯s hiding his strength?¡±


    Jiang Yi himself represented the Jade Sword Holy Land, and his strength was displayed there.


    In this gathering, he could be said to be the irreplaceable main character.


    Since he had suddenly appeared at Zhou Feng¡¯s side, this person definitely wasn¡¯t simple.


    A true dragon would never be friends with a loach. This was the consensus of everyone.


    Sima Di and Fairy Qing also looked over, their eyes filled with scrutiny.


    Although Zhou Feng had only displayed the Purple Mansion cultivation, he was definitely hiding his strength in the eyes of others. His true strength was definitely not as simple as it seemed.


    They had to pay close attention to it.


    In reality, however, Zhou Feng was a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    And he didn¡¯t intentionally hide his strength. He was just used to hiding his aura.


    When Zhou Feng sensed the changes in his surroundings, a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes.


    This hint of killing intent was directed at Jiang Yi because he was practically putting him on fire.


    Zhou Feng had never offended Jiang Yi before, but Jiang Yi¡¯s actions at this moment put him in great danger.


    From a certain point of view, he was basically putting a target on his back.


    Zhou Feng would never show mercy to those who did that.


    Even if Jiang Yi was extremely powerful and he might not be able to defeat him, Zhou Feng still needed to have the attitude that he should have.


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± Zhou Feng said coldly.


    ¡°Hehe~ I know that my actions are a little abrupt, but I cannot reveal my reasons for doing so.¡±


    Jiang Yi looked a little embarrassed, and it seemed like he didn¡¯t want to do this, but he still chose to do this for some reason.


    Jiang Yi also knew that he would be sending Zhou Feng to the center of the storm by doing this.


    However, the Great Elder¡¯s prediction was definitely not wrong.


    When he thought of the Great Elder¡¯s prediction, Jiang Yi¡¯s face became resolute again.


    ¡°I know you¡¯re looking for the Whale King Musk. As long as you help me obtain a spot and answer a question after bathing in the immortal lake, then the Whale King Musk in my hands will be yours!¡±


    When Jiang Yi said the words ¡®Whale King Musk¡¯, Zhou Feng¡¯s face instantly revealed a trace of shock.


    ¡°How did you know that I needed the Whale King Musk?¡±


    This was really too strange! Logically speaking, no one should know that he needed the Whale King Musk.


    The function of the Whale King Musk itself was very obscure. If one wanted such an item, it would basically be either a Pill Master or an Artifact Master.


    or an


    After all, not only was this item expensive, but it also didn¡¯t have much of an effect on cultivation.


    ¡°Anyway, I just know. How about it? How about this deal?¡±


    Jiang Yi stared at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Although he didn¡¯t know what Jiang Yi was doing, Zhou Feng had no reason to refuse.


    If he obtained the Whale King Musk, then his efficiency of soul travel in the great void would greatly increase.


    The probability of breaking through to the Divine Ability realm would be magnified infinitely


    With such an opportunity in front of him, how could he give it up?


    Although there were many risks involved, it was still worth a gamble.


    If Jiang Yi deceived him in the end, then Zhou Feng would make him pay a heavy price.


    ¡°Good! Oh right! What¡¯s your name? I still don¡¯t know your name!¡±


    Jiang Yi immediately heaved a sigh of relief as if he had accomplished something great.


    Zhou Feng withdrew the trace of killing intent in his eyes and simply replied with two words, ¡°Zhou Feng!¡±

 Chapter 331 - Encountering Leng Maner Again

    Chapter 331 Encountering Leng Maner Again


    None of the cultivators present looked down on Zhou Feng due to Jiang Yi.


    Instead, they increased Zhou Feng¡¯s strength infinitely in their minds.


    Perhaps this was a monster who was as famous as Jiang Yi, but he had been hiding it all along


    Although many people wouldn¡¯t do that to hide their strength, it was a common practice for some disciples of reclusive sects.


    This was because some disciples of reclusive sects didn¡¯t want to expose their whereabouts.


    Jiang Yi turned around and shouted, ¡°Then let my brother, Zhou Feng, do a show for everyone in the first match!¡±


    In the eyes of thousands of people, Zhou Feng became the first person to fight.


    For a moment, more and more people focused on Zhou Feng.


    A trace of curiosity appeared in Fairy Qing¡¯s eyes.


    It seemed that Jiang Yi had never called anyone his age as a ¡®brother¡¯ before.


    ¡®This person¡­ is hiding so deeply?¡¯


    Fairy Qing looked carefully at Zhou Feng but didn¡¯t find anything special.


    There was no sign of him being baptized by the power of divine power. Still, he gave people a vague sense of threat. Just this kind of hidden ability alone was enough to make people take him seriously.


    Fairy Qing not being able to see through Zhou Feng¡¯s true strength was an amazing feat in itself.


    After Zhou Feng heard Jiang Yi¡¯s words, the doubt in his heart intensified.


    He had nothing to do with Jiang Yi at all.


    Why was Jiang Yi acting as if they were bosom friends?


    There was no love and hate for no reason in this world, so Zhou Feng was extremely vigilant in his heart.


    He had already regarded Jiang Yi as a dangerous person.


    However, there was no danger in front of him, and the Whale King Musk was too fragrant.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not run away immediately. He wanted to probe first.


    It was a good opportunity to test his strength.


    It had been a long time since the last time he fought with all his strength.


    During the past few months, not only had he drawn many new passive skills, but he had also completely eliminated all the flaws in his body.


    After this round of integration, his strength had increased by at least one level.


    As for whether he could wrestle with a true Divine Ability expert, this was not clear.


    Zhou Feng had just walked onto the stage when his opponent also slowly walked up.


    This was a man dressed in green. He did not look very old, in his early 20s at best.


    However, he was a Divine Ability cultivator. His body emitted a feminine aura, making him look like a woman.


    This was especially so for his fair and tender skin and that bright flower accessory.


    It really made people doubt his gender. ¡°A Jade Lake disciple? He still has this feminine appearance!¡±


    ¡°Tsk, tsk! This is not a character to be trifled with!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! His nickname is Young Master Yin Lin, and he cultivates the Extreme Yin Dao! He¡¯s almost at the great-stage!¡±


    ¡°However, I still think more highly of this¡­ Zhou Feng! After all, he¡¯s Young Master Jiang¡¯s brother!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to take the initiative to find out.


    As soon as Young Master Yin Lin stepped onto the stage, someone introduced him in a low voice.


    After all, those who were able to fight on the stage were all slightly famous, and many cultivators would start talking about them.


    Among the many cultivators present, a few actually couldn¡¯t fight.


    What Zhou Feng might not have expected was that there was an acquaintance of his among the group of cultivators below.


    Leng Maner was wearing a purple gauze dress and a thin purple veil on her head. Her curvaceous figure was fully displayed.


    The current Leng Maner appeared even more mature compared to the last time they met.


    After this period of training, Leng Maner had learned to restrain herself. Her previously high and mighty aura, like that of a great empress, had been completely restrained.


    In its place was an old and experienced aura.


    And for some unknown reason, the charm Leng Maner was exuding was like a magnet.


    It was very easy for people to become addicted to it. This kind of deadly temptation, like a venomous snake, made it so that there weren¡¯t many cultivators around her. ¡®9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm? This is truly an exaggeration!¡¯


    Sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s current cultivation level, Leng Maner was once again shocked.


    She remembered that the last time she had met Zhou Feng, he had just entered the Purple Mansion realm?


    How long had it been? He had almost broken through to the Divine Ability realm?


    When the others saw Zhou Feng¡¯s current cultivation level, they might not think too much of it.


    Wasn¡¯t he a mere Purple Mansion cultivator? Given his age and realm, he was nothing in the eyes of the geniuses.


    Young Master Yin Lin, who was opposite Zhou Feng, was quite the monster. Although he looked to be in his 20s, he was actually only 17 years old.


    And this wasn¡¯t even the Holy Son of the Jade Lake Holy Land. He was just an outstanding Jade Lake disciple.


    However, only Leng Maner knew that Zhou Feng had only just entered the Purple Mansion realm a few months ago.


    In the blink of an eye, he had already reached the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm. This speed was comparable to cheating.


    Most likely, none of the surrounding cultivators had expected that Zhou Feng had only officially started cultivating for less than a year and a half.


    From an ordinary mortal with mediocre talent to the 9th Level of the Purple Mansion realm in just over a year¡ªthis was such an exaggerated resume!


    Leng Maner knew everything about Zhou Feng. After all, when Zhou Feng was still a mortal, the Tri-Gu Sect had forcibly taken him.


    And it was precisely because of this that Zhou Feng¡¯s path of cultivation was opened.


    Leng Maner, who knew Zhou Feng¡¯s background, was even a little afraid. Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t have broken through to the Divine Ability realm after a period of time, right!?


    Also, since when did Zhou Feng have a relationship with Jiang Yi, this monster?


    This was a direct descendant of the Jiang Clan and also a core disciple of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    It could be said that Leng Maner had many questions in her heart, but she couldn¡¯t directly go up to Zhou Feng and ask him.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know that an acquaintance was watching him from below.


    He was currently scrutinizing this opponent of his.


    ¡®So cold!¡¯


    Just by standing in front of Young Master Yin Lin, he felt an omnipresent cold air invading his body.


    This cold air was hard to counteract, so he could only use his Blood Qi to resist it.


    This was the effect of the Extreme Yin Dao after being immersed in it for a long time.


    ¡°If I kill you, Jiang Yi, that idiot will be angry!¡±


    Young Master Yin Lin looked at Zhou Feng, and his tone was neither cold nor warm.


    Obviously, Young Master Yin Lin, who was from the Jade Lake Holy Land, didn¡¯t give Jiang Yi any face at all.


    He had said such words right from the start.


    It wasn¡¯t that he was underestimating Zhou Feng, but rather, it was that he valued Zhou Feng as an opponent.


    By saying such words, besides showing the attitude of the Jade Lake Holy Land, the three holy lands were already competitors.


    Also, he wanted to test Zhou Feng¡¯s personality. As long as he could gauge his opponent¡¯s personality, he would be able to gain an advantage in the following battles. ¡°It¡¯s just a child¡¯s joke. Young Master Jiang shouldn¡¯t take it to heart, right?¡±


    As soon as Young Master Yin Lin finished speaking, Fairy Qing immediately glanced at Jiang Yi beside her.


    Her tone was also plain and indifferent, but there was a hidden meaning behind it.

 Chapter 332 - Invincible Avatar!

    Chapter 332 Invincible Avatar!


    Speaking of which, the pressure on the Jade Lake Holy Land during this period was extremely great.


    Although the Jade Lake Holy Land was currently the leader of the three holy lands, it didn¡¯t mean that the position of the leader was very stable.


    On the contrary, with the appearance of the Jade Sword prodigies and freaks in recent years, the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s position had been impacted quite a bit.


    In addition, it had been a long time since there had been a genius vagabond cultivator in the Southern Border.


    The advantage of the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s marriage alliances was gradually eroding.


    After all, the living environment of vagabond cultivators was very worrying. It could be said that even the survival of those small forces was very difficult.


    There were still so many geniuses there who could marry into the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    The Jade Lake fairies basically wouldn¡¯t condescend to marry down.


    That was why Fairy Qing¡¯s tone was like this.


    Recently, there had been many conflicts between the Jade Lake Holy Land and the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Jiang Yi touched the jade sword hanging behind his back and said solemnly, ¡°Although I want to kill this person with one strike, I¡¯ll pretend I didn¡¯t hear it since it was actually Fairy Qing who spoke!¡±


    ¡°Thank you, Young Master Jiang!¡±


    A faint smile appeared on Fairy Qing¡¯s face.


    She had just opened her mouth to stop Jiang Yi¡¯s next move.


    Young Master Jiang was famous for being crazy.


    It was common for him to make a move suddenly. Jiang Yi didn¡¯t care about the consequences at all.


    If you said bad things about him in front of him, his modus operandi would be to make a move immediately.


    This kind of personality was somewhat similar to Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    One wouldn¡¯t consider the consequences of doing things most of the time. In any case, it was better to take action first.


    One wouldn¡¯t care about so many things. No matter how much one cared, wouldn¡¯t the other party target them?


    Regarding the confrontation between Fairy Qing and Jiang Yi, Zhou Feng was in the dark.


    Zhou Feng only looked indifferently at this Young Master Yin Lin in front of him. He was still as silent as before, only secretly circulating the Blood Qi in his entire body.


    Both sides had already stood there for a while, but neither of them intended to take the initiative to attack.


    Young Master Yin Lin looked at Zhou Feng without saying a word. Added to the fact that he had infinitely increased Zhou Feng¡¯s strength in his mind, he momentarily didn¡¯t dare to make a move.


    Originally, he wanted to provoke Zhou Feng and see what kind of reaction Zhou Feng would have.


    Then, he would act according to the situation.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng acted as if nothing had happened.


    Not only did he not say a word, but he just looked on indifferently.


    Obviously, this was a person who did not show his emotions. Such a person was usually very difficult to deal with.


    ¡°Still hiding your strength? How about a fair and aboveboard match?¡±


    Seeing that dragging this out wasn¡¯t a good idea, Young Master Yin Lin spoke once more.


    This was because Zhou Feng kept displaying the strength of the Purple Mansion realm.


    This caused Young Master Yin Lin to feel somewhat uncertain about his strength, and so he decided to have a fair fight.


    Zhou Feng still didn¡¯t say anything.


    It seemed that he didn¡¯t intend to take the initiative to attack.


    After all, Zhou Feng knew very well that he was at a complete disadvantage in terms of cultivation.


    He wasn¡¯t hiding any of his strength.


    It was better to hold back in a situation where he was at a disadvantage in terms of hard power.


    As for the opinions of others, he didn¡¯t care at all.


    If it was possible, Zhou Feng could even stand here for a day and a night. He could even use this opportunity to continue polishing his physical body.


    Although his cultivation state had reached a bottleneck, polishing his physical body still had little effect.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t mind, but Young Master Yin Lin didn¡¯t have such a good attitude.


    There were so many onlookers!


    Sister Qing Yao was also watching from above, so he couldn¡¯t stand here like a fool anymore!


    ¡°Pardon me!¡±


    Young Master Yin Lin turned into a shadow.


    The sky suddenly turned dark, and a bright moon hung high in the sky.


    After that, countless rays of Extreme Yin Qi descended like a tidal wave.


    Young Master Yin Lin specialized in the Dao of Extreme Yin. With this move, the entire sky changed. This was the Extreme Yin Avatar!


    The avatar could be started from the Purple Mansion realm, and after breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, this avatar would become even more exaggerated.


    There were even more exaggerated ones. Once the divine ability was used, the entire area within a few thousand miles would be affected by the avatar.


    The strange avatar of Young Master Yin Lin was not so exaggerated at the moment, but it could affect the area for hundreds of miles around.


    That bright moon gave people a lonely and cold feeling


    Many people even felt that their blood was frozen.


    Facing the Extreme Yin Qi coming from all directions, Zhou Feng still stood where he


    was.


    However, he unleashed his full strength and displayed his strange avatar.


    His abnormal avatar walked the path of invincibility, and there was no special characteristic that represented him.


    Invincibility! Overbearingness!


    A figure slowly appeared, accompanied by Zhou Feng¡¯s golden Blood Qi.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body shone with boundless light, and the golden Blood Qi burned. His body was like an immortal divine furnace, and the Blood Qi inside was like a flame.


    It burned everything! It destroyed everything!


    Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s avatar was shattered in an instant!


    It was too overbearing! Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar was too overbearing!


    Was he using himself as an avatar? And he was walking the path of invincibility?


    The risk of condensing an avatar like this was very high. Once he lost in a battle, he would lose completely.


    This avatar would be implicated, which meant that one had to be truly invincible for this avatar to be condensed.


    If one were to lose, then this avatar would dissipate.


    Afterward, one would have to waste a large amount of energy in order to make up for it.


    ¡°Huh? The path of invincibility? This person¡­¡±


    ¡°As expected of Young Master Jiang¡¯s brother. He actually dared to walk the path of invincibility!¡±


    ¡°But why is he still at the Purple Mansion Realm? Why didn¡¯t he use the power of the Divine Ability realm?¡±


    As soon as Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar appeared, all the cultivators present were shocked.


    That faint illusory figure was 80% similar to Zhou Feng


    The dominating aura emanating from his body caused everyone¡¯s heart to feel as though a stone had been pressed down on it.


    This was the path of invincibility!


    A long time ago, no one had been able to condense such an avatar because this avatar was simply a matter of success or death.


    The Invincible Avatar was about momentum. Once this momentum was blocked, then it was equal to the collapse of blood.


    On the other hand, if one could win all the way on the road of cultivation and fight beyond their level, this momentum would become more and more terrifying! Later on, once the momentum was formed, no one could resist.


    This was taking the path of the ancient Human Emperor.


    If one wanted to become the Human Emperor, they could only kill all the other competitors.


    Since ancient times, there would only be one Human Emperor per era.


    In fact, this was not something that Zhou Feng could choose.


    He did not even know how to condense the avatar, but he had condensed this Invincible Avatar in a daze.


    Then there was the passive Invincible Aura, which finally condensed this avatar.


    However, because he was leaning toward the skill panel, the confidence in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was perfectly in line with the style of the Invincible Avatar.


    The confidence of ¡°Only I have the golden finger in the world¡± made him extremely compatible with the Invincible Avatar, which was why he could create such an avatar in a daze.


    Only those who were extremely confident could create such an Invincible Avatar.


    If it were a person who was not confident to the point of arrogance, it would be difficult for them to create such an avatar.

 Chapter 333 - Humiliation?

    Chapter 333 Humiliation?


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s expression changed when he saw Zhou Feng¡¯s avatar.


    Invincible Avatar! There was actually someone who dared to conjure such an avatar.


    Obviously, he didn¡¯t put the entire world in his eyes.


    Even those freaks in the Central Plains didn¡¯t dare to conjure such an Invincible Avatar.


    How to put it?


    If the opponent condensed an Invincible Avatar, you must use all your strength to shatter it.


    It meant that you would become someone else¡¯s stepping stone.


    This was something that no cultivators wanted to see.


    To sum it up, the person who condensed an Invincible Avatar was simply born with hatred.


    The gloomy and cold Extreme Yin Qi directly condensed into a sword in Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s hand.


    ¡°Extreme Yin Sword!¡±


    Although this sword looked a bit illusory, its power was unrivaled.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was cut open with just a slight wave.


    Given the current strength of Zhou Feng¡¯s body, it was impossible for him to resist this Extreme Yin Sword.


    After all, this Extreme Yin Sword was condensed from the power of a divine ability.


    The Extreme Yin Qi, which seemed to freeze everything, stirred the sky.


    ¡°He has already formed a dao sword with the Extreme Yin Qi?¡±


    ¡°Amazing! He is indeed a disciple of the Jade Lake Holy Land!¡±


    ¡°Young Master Yin Lin is only 20 this year, right?¡±


    Looking at the dao sword formed by the Extreme Yin Qi in Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s hand, most people were shocked.


    It was not easy to do this. One had to have a deep understanding of the Extreme Yin Dao.


    This sword of Extreme Yin was formed from countless wisps of Extreme Yin Qi.


    Combined with the bright sun and moon in the sky, this Young Master Yin Lin was probably about to reach the great-stage Divine Ability realm!


    The next step was to reach the perfection-stage Divine Ability realm, after which he would be able to transform into a dragon.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng roared, forcefully breaking free of the ice formed on his body.


    His Invincible Avatar was directly compressed to the extreme when this sword of Extreme Yin was unleashed.


    It was completely unable to contend against the Extreme Yin Avatar of Young Master Yin


    Lin.


    Even the simple swing of the Extreme Yin Sword just now froze Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    There was no other way!


    Zhou Feng could only muster up all the Blood Qi in his body.


    He forcefully broke free from the ice and, under the prediction of his Battle Instinct, avoided the sharp edge of the Extreme Yin Sword.


    Although Zhou Feng withstood this attack, a portion of his flesh and blood fell to the ground along with the falling ice. The ground was covered with chunks of blood-red flesh. Zhou Feng¡¯s body looked horrifying


    His flesh and blood were directly exposed to the air, as were some of his meridians.


    However, not a single drop of blood had fallen from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Golden Blood Qi continued to surge about, protecting his body.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°This is it? He really didn¡¯t hide his strength?¡±


    ¡°It was just a single attack? He¡¯s still hiding his strength?¡±


    ¡°Or is this person a mere Purple Mansion cultivator?¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s miserable state, many people were quite surprised.


    After all, before this battle began, many people thought highly of Zhou Feng.


    It was only because he was Jiang Yi¡¯s brother.


    Although this Young Master Yin Lin looked very powerful, he was nothing in Jiang Yi¡¯s eyes. He only needed one sword strike to take Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s life. Otherwise, Fairy Qing wouldn¡¯t have taken the initiative to speak to Jiang Yi.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s current miserable appearance made the onlookers suspicious.


    Could it be that Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was only like this?


    But why would Jiang Yi do that?


    ¡°Oh? Only so?¡±


    Young Master Yin Lin himself was also shell-shocked.


    He didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be so weak.


    He had been extremely cautious earlier and even used words to test Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    But he didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be so weak.


    Wasn¡¯t this helping his reputation?


    Surprise, disdain, and other emotions were all focused on Zhou Feng.


    However, Zhou Feng was not affected in the slightest. His face was still as calm as ever.


    He was completely unaffected by other things during battle.


    He was still as focused as ever. As for the injuries on his body, even though they looked very serious, they were nothing.


    He would only need a short while to recover fully given his recovery speed.


    ¡®So strong!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could also feel the difference in strength between him and a genuine Divine Ability cultivator.


    The person in front of him was different from the common goods that he had encountered before.


    Whether it was the avatar or the divine ability, none of them were lagging behind. They had completely suppressed him from the start.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng had a lot of passive damage reduction.


    For example, the passive Spiritual Qi Resistance was equivalent to a 15% damage reduction.


    Even so, he still looked so miserable.


    Still, this didn¡¯t mean that he didn¡¯t have a chance.


    This Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s physical body was definitely inferior to his, so if he were to get close¡­


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body suddenly flashed upon thinking of this. Golden Blood Qi gushed out, and the Invincible Avatar that was originally suppressed instantly broke free.


    ¡°He really only has this bit of strength? He hasn¡¯t even comprehended a divine ability?¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t show any signs of using any divine abilities, Young Master Yin Lin felt even more at ease.


    As long as Zhou Feng didn¡¯t use any divine abilities, he couldn¡¯t think of any methods that Zhou Feng could use to hurt him.


    ¡°Could it be that he relies on his physical body? Does he really think that he¡¯s the ancient Human Emperor and that his physical body is invincible?


    ¡®And so what if you were the ancient Human Emperor?


    ¡°The times had changed. Under the influence of divine abilities, so what if your body is strong?¡¯


    Body refinement was already a cultivation path that had long been abandoned.


    Young Master Yin Lin only looked at Zhou Feng indifferently and did not take the initiative to attack.


    A black lotus appeared above his head, and a light screen instantly enveloped Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s entire body.


    That black lotus was a dao artifact.


    What was a dao artifact? It should be called a great dao artifact, and it already contained a trace of Great Dao rules.


    From the beginning of the Divine Ability realm, one would be able to infuse the laws one had comprehended into a spiritual artifact.


    If one succeeded, then this spiritual artifact would transform into a dao artifact. Moreover, along with the master¡¯s comprehension of the Dao, it would slowly become even more formidable.


    Young Master Yin Lin had taken this black lotus from the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s Lotus Pond.


    This lotus pond could be considered an important strategic resource of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    The lotus flowers that grew in the lotus pond were naturally imbued with spiritual essence, so one only needed to pluck them and casually refine them to become a spiritual weapon.


    There was also the potential to advance to a dao weapon.


    Only a few Jade Lake disciples were qualified to pluck a lotus flower from the lotus pond.


    It was very obvious that after Young Master Yin Lin plucked the lotus flower from the lotus pond, he refined it and even fused it with the Extreme Yin Dao he had comprehended.


    In an instant, the lotus transformed into a defensive dao artifact.


    ¡°Using his physical body to break open a dao artifact? I¡¯m afraid¡­¡±


    ¡°Young Master Yin Lin is intentionally humiliating this person!¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°Could this person be like this?¡±


    Looking at Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s actions, many people below knew that he was intentionally humiliating Zhou Feng.


    It was almost impossible to break through a defensive dao artifact with his physical body.


    Not to mention the Spirit Lotus of the Jade Lake Holy Land, which was famous for its high defense.


    This kind of refinement naturally gave birth to spirituality, and its defensive ability could even withstand the sword cultivators of the Jade Sword Holy Land.

 Chapter 334 - Full Power

    Chapter 334 Full Power


    Looking at the situation on the stage, even Jiang Yi couldn¡¯t help but frown.


    How could this be?


    Impossible! Zhou Feng¡¯s strength couldn¡¯t be limited to this.


    Moreover, there was also the Great Elder¡¯s prediction-it was absolutely not wrong!


    ¡®The Great Elder is a disciple of the Heavens¡¯ Secrets Pavilion.¡¯


    Although Jiang Yi¡¯s heart was somewhat wavering at this time, he still firmly believed that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t only have this little strength.


    Didn¡¯t Zhou Feng suspect that Jiang Yi had some ulterior motives?


    Well, part of the reason Jiang Yi had deliberately called Zhou Feng his brother was the latter¡¯s temperament and his personality. Another important reason was the prediction of the Grand Elder of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Although the Jade Sword Holy Land was dominated by the Jiang Clan, unlike the Great Sun Holy Land, there were still many other mountains in the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    For example, the Great Elder of the Jade Sword Holy Land was born in the Heavens¡¯ Secrets Pavilion in the Central Plains.


    His divination skills were superb.


    Jiang Yi had paid a great price to ask the Great Elder how he could break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    And the Great Elder had predicted that it was related to a person.


    This person had the opportunity for Jiang Yi to break through.


    The Great Elder hadn¡¯t told him who it was. He had only shared a few characteristics.


    That was, this person had a strange personality. His physical body was very sturdy, and the avatar he had condensed was an Invincible Avatar.


    Before this, Jiang Yi did not dare to confirm whether the Great Elder had predicted it was Zhou Feng


    But when Zhou Feng revealed the Invincible Avatar, Jiang Yi had confirmed it.


    Zhou Feng was the person he had been searching for.


    It was precisely because of this that Jiang Yi still had a certain amount of confidence in Zhou Feng


    Since the Great Elder had said that his opportunity to break through was in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands, then there was absolutely no mistake!


    The Great Elder was a disciple of the Heavens¡¯ Secrets Pavilion, although an abandoned one.


    Just like Jiang Yi, the other people¡¯s expressions were all different.


    Boom! Zhou Feng¡¯s fist smashed onto the black lotus.


    That violent power poured out crazily, but it only turned into waves.


    It was completely useless! Yin Lin¡¯s black lotus swallowed Zhou Feng¡¯s burst of power.


    ¡°If you have any other tricks, then use them. Otherwise, there won¡¯t be any more chances!¡± Yin Lin was originally a little nervous, but when he saw this, he completely relaxed.


    He had originally been worried that Zhou Feng was concealing his strength, waiting for the best opportunity to attack ruthlessly suddenly.


    If he were to be tricked, he would be in deep trouble.


    But now, it seemed that this person in front of him was just so-so!


    Therefore, Young Master Yin Lin¡¯s eyes turned disdainful. Even this person could become Jiang Yi¡¯s brother.


    Although Jiang Yi had a great reputation, he was just so-so in reality.


    In the face of his opponent¡¯s ridicule, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care so much.


    He was slowly stacking passive skills.


    He had many passive skills that needed time to stack, such as Fighting Spirit. As long as he was given time to stack it, he would directly increase his strength by 30%.


    One had to know that this kind of percentage increase would increase as Zhou Feng¡¯s strength increased.


    The increase in strength was mind-blowing.


    ¡°Wait! His injuries have recovered?¡±


    ¡°Eh? It seems to be true! Am I seeing things?¡±


    ¡°Wasn¡¯t this person injured just now? Why did he blink?¡±


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s attack didn¡¯t work, the injuries on his body had already recovered.


    The flesh and blood that was exposed outside had unknowingly grown back into his skin.


    If it weren¡¯t for the few pieces of meat that Zhou Feng had dropped on the ground, no one would have believed that Zhou Feng had just been injured.


    Not to mention anything else, his recovery speed alone showed this person didn¡¯t seem as weak as they had imagined.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Young Master Yin Lin also noticed that something was wrong with Zhou Feng at this time.


    Was it that easy to recover from that kind of injury just now?


    One had to know that his attacks were imbued with the power of Extreme Yin.


    If one wanted to recover from an injury, they would have to remove the power of Extreme Yin from their wound.


    Otherwise, they wouldn¡¯t be able to recover at all.


    Actually, Zhou Feng had also felt the power of Extreme Yin on his wound, and it had been preventing him from recovering.


    But it didn¡¯t matter. The Human Emperor Blood in his body started to burn and forcefully wiped away the power of Extreme Yin.


    Unlike before, most of the blood in Zhou Feng¡¯s body had been replaced with the Human Emperor Blood.


    Moreover, his recovery was extremely fast. As long as he ate something, no matter what it was, he would be able to turn it into Blood Qi.


    After that, the Blood Qi would be able to turn into the Human Emperor Blood.


    This meant that no matter how badly Zhou Feng was injured, he could be revived with full blood on the spot no matter how much he consumed.


    The passive Level-2 Gluttony was very compatible with the first Human Emperor Scripture he had obtained.


    Although he did not know which Human Emperor had created it, it was basically a cultivation of Blood Qi.


    As long as the Blood Qi was enough, anything else would not be a problem.


    Zhou Feng even suspected that the second half of the first Human Emperor Scripture used the Blood Qi to form a physical body.


    This was a completely different path from Human Emperor Great Void refining a mouthful of Great Void Primordial Qi.


    ¡°Yin Lin!¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s body changes, Fairy Qing knew that this battle would not go smoothly.


    Thus, she immediately reminded him.


    ¡®Yin Lin is still too young. He is not steady enough.¡¯


    Fairy Qing sighed in her heart.


    This Young Master Yin Lin looked very mature and even displayed a very experienced performance in battle.


    But in the end, he still had the temperament of a youth, and when the outcome was not completely certain, he still fluttered.


    He still wanted to humiliate Zhou Feng ruthlessly. Although he wanted to humiliate


    the Jade Sword Holy Land, he did it mostly to show off in front of Fairy Qing.


    Fairy Qing was well aware of Yin Lin¡¯s adoration from time to time.


    ¡°You!¡±


    After Yin Lin Heard Fairy Qing¡¯s voice, the disdain in his eyes disappeared instantly. He raised his spirits, not daring to look down on Zhou Feng at all.


    The contempt in his heart also disappeared in an instant.


    ¡°Extreme Yin Sword!¡±


    Yin Lin adjusted his speed fast and realized that he was too pleased with himself just as Fairy Qing finished her words.


    So he immediately took the initiative to attack, not giving Zhou Feng any chance to continue hiding his strength.


    Just this kind of adjustment speed was completely different from the enemies that Zhou Feng had encountered before.


    ¡®What a pity!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt a little regretful.


    It wasn¡¯t that he didn¡¯t show his weakness to his enemies before.


    He knew that his strength was inferior to his opponent¡¯s, so the best way to defeat the strong was to take them by surprise.


    As such, it was a pity that Young Master Yin Lin had adjusted so quickly.


    However, it wasn¡¯t that he didn¡¯t have a chance. If he let go of his opponent and used all kinds of passive skills, he would have a chance to win.


    Zhou Feng began to squeeze out his body¡¯s potential crazily.


    The last time he squeezed his body¡¯s potential like that was back in Heavenly Star City.


    Back then, he had crazily squeezed his body¡¯s potential to survive while fighting against the Bai Dao Protector.


    Since that time, Zhou Feng¡¯s body had improved countless times. Now, what kind of effect would squeezing out his full strength have?

 Chapter 335 - Crazy Fighting Method

    Chapter 335 Crazy Fighting Method


    Zhou Feng began to squeeze out his body¡¯s potential, and the thick Blood Qi began to burn.


    Ever since he obtained the passive Second Heart, his Blood Qi reserves had doubled.


    Previously, he did not have so much Blood Qi to fill up his reserves, but now the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body had been completely replenished.


    Therefore, burning his Blood Qi now was an exaggerated process.


    Waves of heat were continuously spreading outward.


    This was the effect of Blood Qi gathering together.


    But under normal circumstances, no one would be able to create such an effect.


    Only a pervert like Zhou Feng, who had all sorts of passive skills, could achieve such an effect.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body seemed to emit a boundless golden light from afar, and a huge furnace was constantly burning.


    Bzzz!


    This terrible heat spontaneously burned a few cultivators¡¯ clothes while the water vapor on the ground was constantly evaporating.


    ¡°Extreme Yin Black Lotus!¡±


    Yin Lin immediately controlled the Extreme Yin Black Lotus above his head, and a light barrier encapsulated him, fending off the terrifying heat.


    ¡°Is¡­ he still a human? What kind of Blood Qi is this!?¡±


    ¡°This seems to be the simplest way to burn the Blood Qi. It doesn¡¯t even use any other special methods!¡±


    ¡°Is this person a true dragon in human form? No! This kind of Blood Qi can only be found in adult true dragons!¡±


    II


    11


    It seemed that Zhou Feng had been too inconspicuous before, and this sudden move shocked countless people.


    This kind of Blood Qi didn¡¯t seem to be something that humans could possess.


    Only a strange beast like a true dragon could unleash such terrifying Blood Qi. And this wasn¡¯t even the most terrifying part. Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi was so potent, yet no one had noticed anything wrong with it before.


    This control over his Blood Qi was too strong!


    ¡®Landslide!


    Zhou Feng could only feel the Blood Qi in his entire body continuously gushing out as a golden fist streaked across the surroundings, producing an ear-piercing sound. The endless Blood Qi exploded, containing the pure power of Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    The golden light dyed the sky as if there was a blazing sun shattering in the sky.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Yin Lin suddenly realized that his avatar could no longer suppress Zhou Feng.


    But now, he had no time to think. He had to suppress Zhou Feng¡¯s momentum.


    For someone like Zhou Feng, who had formed an Invincible Avatar, he had to suppress that momentum from the beginning.


    Otherwise, it would be an extremely troublesome matter if the other party attacked him.


    The omnipresent power of the Extreme Yin also began to surge.


    With the protection of the Extreme Yin Black Lotus, Yin Lin directly clashed head-on with Zhou Feng


    Don¡¯t think that Yin Lin¡¯s physical fighting ability was weak just because he specialized in the Dao of the Extreme Yin.


    In fact, no holy land¡¯s disciple would leave behind any obvious weakness for the enemy to target.


    All disciples of the holy lands were trained to be all-rounded.


    Although Yin Lin was young, his melee combat ability was outstanding.


    This was even one of his trump cards because, from his appearance, it was evident that Yin Lin was not good at melee combat.


    His physical body was definitely not good enough.


    But who would have thought that Yin Lin¡¯s strongest skill was actually melee combat?


    Boom!


    The dark and cold power of Extreme Yin clashed with the pure Blood Qi.


    A terrifying explosion echoed. These two powers were like fire and water, completely incompatible.


    The blinding light made it impossible for the spectating cultivators to look at the arena.


    However, they could determine that Yin Lin definitely had the upper hand in the clash just now.


    That was because Zhou Feng¡¯s golden Blood Qi was suppressed for a moment.


    But soon, the two sides were evenly matched again.


    Yin Lin roared, and wisps of grayish-black energy twined around his fair skin.


    The air around him collapsed with a punch.


    Zhou Feng was not willing to be outdone, and his face was still as expressionless as before. His golden fist forcefully withstood this attack, but waves shook his body after waves.


    That¡¯s right! It was waves! Zhou Feng¡¯s straight right hand was dangling at this moment.


    He did not know how many times his bones had been broken.


    Such a terrifying collision force was not something that a mere physical body could withstand.


    Yin Lin¡¯s physical body had at least experienced the baptism of the divine power, and there was a black lotus on top of his head that had counteracted most of the power. On the other hand, Zhou Feng was taking the attack head-on, without any fancy moves.


    However, Zhou Feng did not care at all.


    The more severely injured he was, the faster his recovery would be.


    Moreover, the more severely injured he was, the stronger his attack power would be due to the passive Injury Conversion.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    As soon as his right hand was broken, Zhou Feng did not care whether his body could withstand it or not.


    He charged forward fiercely, and a large amount of Blood Qi gathered in his left hand, which was like a golden millstone.


    He threw a punch toward Yin Lin¡¯s head.


    ¡®Madman!


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy action, Yin Lin cursed him inwardly.


    This kind of fighting style that one did not care about their injuries was simply courting death.


    Even if he won the battle, he would definitely be heavily injured in the future.


    This was simply not worth the loss. Furthermore, Zhou Feng was simply looking down on others by relying solely on his physical body to fight.


    From the beginning, it was unknown what he was hiding


    Zhou Feng had always relied solely on his physical body to fight, and all along, he had only displayed the Purple Mansion power.


    Wasn¡¯t this looking down on others?


    Yin Lin used the Extreme Yin Black Lotus to block this attack. At the same time, he changed his mind and decided not to engage in hand-to-hand combat with this madman.


    He would definitely win as long as he relied on the Extreme Yin Black Lotus and slowly increased the distance between them to fight Zhou Feng.


    This was just an ordinary battle. There was no need to fight so desperately.


    Because of his identity and various factors, it was impossible for Yin Lin to engage in such a crazy battle like Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    He didn¡¯t even consider what would happen


    next.


    After all, not everyone was as helpless as Zhou Feng, nor had he a skill panel to back him up.


    The two of them weren¡¯t mortal enemies, so was there a need to fight like this?


    Just as Yin Lin had this thought, the momentum of both sides reversed.


    Yin Lin was dragged into Zhou Feng¡¯s battle rhythm and started to fall to a disadvantage.


    Zhou Feng seemed to be keenly aware of the change in Yin Lin¡¯s state of mind.


    Thus, he seized this opportunity and started to become even crazier.


    However, the more Zhou Feng gained the upper hand, his injuries became more serious.


    Seeing this scene, the surrounding cultivators were dumbstruck.


    ¡°This¡­ This¡­ This¡­¡±


    ¡°Why is this person¡­¡±


    ¡°Does he want to die? If this battle goes on¡­¡±


    Looking at the still expressionless Zhou Feng, many of the surrounding cultivators were at a loss for words for the first time.

 Chapter 336 - A Cheater Uses their Cheats!

    Chapter 336 A Cheater Uses their Cheats!


    Most cultivators pursued cultivation for a longer life and greater strength.


    Basically, all cultivators had this thought.


    Because of this, they would consider many things when fighting.


    For example, a crazy fighting style like Zhou Feng¡¯s wouldn¡¯t be respected at all.


    In fact, he would even be scolded because this was a representative who only planned for the moment and never planned for the rest of his life.


    Why was he fighting so desperately?


    If he won this battle, there would be another one.


    Thus, Zhou Feng was a complete madman in many people¡¯s eyes.


    If he didn¡¯t care about his own body, he would die sooner or later.


    Another thing was that everyone was beginning to come to their senses.


    The person in front of them, Zhou Feng, didn¡¯t hide his strength at all. His strength was only at the Purple Mansion realm.


    There was no such thing as hiding.


    They had overestimated this person before, but they had no choice. After all, he was Jiang Yi¡¯s so-called brother. This title was obvious.


    It was very easy for people to overestimate Zhou Feng.


    ¡®He¡¯s still as crazy as ever¡­¡¯


    Among so many people, only Leng Maner knew why Zhou Feng fought so crazily.


    She had seen Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery ability before.


    No matter how severe the injury was, it seemed that he would always recover.


    The most exaggerated thing was that there seemed to be no sequelae, and there was no need to pay any price.


    Leng Maner had once guessed that this might be Zhou Feng¡¯s innate divine ability.


    Only this kind of innate divine ability carved in the bloodline could achieve such an effect.


    ¡®What an amazing innate divine ability!¡¯


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries getting more and more serious, Leng Maner was eerily calm.


    Crack!


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s indiscriminate bombardment, cracks actually appeared on the black lotus on Yin Lin¡¯s head.


    Moreover, that faint sound was particularly ear-piercing at this time.


    Yin Lin¡¯s eyes revealed a trace of disbelief.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on!?¡¯


    ¡®My Extreme Yin Black Lotus is actually¡­¡¯


    Yin Lin initially thought that their battle wouldn¡¯t last long at all. He only needed to grind slowly, and Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able to hold on.


    That was why he had been waiting all this time, waiting for the moment when Zhou Feng was exhausted.


    However, he did not expect Zhou Feng to become braver as he fought, nor that his aura did not show any signs of reaching its peak. Instead, it continued to rise.


    There was also a strange power that seemed to ignore the black lotus, directly hitting his body.


    That strange power could even bypass the Extreme Yin Qi protecting his body.


    At first, Yin Lin did not feel anything.


    But later on, he gradually couldn¡¯t hold on anymore.


    He even keenly noticed that the effect of the Extreme Yin Qi on Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t that good anymore.


    Yin Lin didn¡¯t know if it was an illusion, but he kept feeling that Zhou Feng¡¯s body was getting stronger and stronger, and his attacks weren¡¯t as effective as before.


    A sense of powerlessness began to emerge, but it was difficult for Yin Lin to turn this situation around on his own.


    Now, not even the black lotus could withstand the attack?


    Impossible! How could this be possible!


    In fact, Yin Lin¡¯s feeling wasn¡¯t wrong.


    The more Zhou Feng fought, the more terrifying he became.


    This was because of the passive effects of Fighting Spirit, Adaptive Shell, Armor-Piercing Spear, and Blood Qi Recovery.


    There was also the passive Unyielding Heart. This passive effect was that the more severe the injury, the faster the recovery speed.


    When Zhou Feng¡¯s injury was serious to a certain extent, the recovery speed provided by the Unyielding Heart, coupled with the Self-Healing Constitution, was just enough to keep up with the aggravation of the injury.


    It could also directly suppress the injury to the maximum.


    It could maximize the bonus from the passive Injury Conversion.


    When coupled with the BUG-like function of the Armor-Piercing Spear, it was normal for Yin Lin to become more and more unable to withstand it.


    As for why the Extreme Yin Black Lotus showed signs of damage, this was due to one of the passive skills Zhou Feng had recently acquired.


    Celestial Forefinger: Your right forefinger will become abnormally strong, with a hint of


    shattering intent.


    Celestial Forefinger! It was precisely because of this passive skill that he was able to break through the black lotus¡¯ terrifying defense.


    Actually, there was no problem with Yin Lin¡¯s rationale. As long as Yin Lin continued to drag it out, he would be completely invincible under the Extreme Yin Black Lotus¡¯ protection against ordinary cultivators.


    In the end, Zhou Feng could only be dragged to his death.


    However, it wasn¡¯t that he didn¡¯t have a trump card. His trump card was this Celestial Forefinger.


    He had tested this passive skill when he had just obtained it.


    That hint of shattering intent was extremely powerful. It would definitely have a miraculous effect as long as it was used properly.


    Zhou Feng observed that whenever Yin Lin couldn¡¯t take it anymore, he would put the black lotus in front of him and block Zhou Feng¡¯s strongest attack.


    Then, he would start to pull away from him, repeating the cycle.


    After Zhou Feng found the pattern, he used the Celestial Forefinger and shattered the Extreme Yin Black Lotus!


    ¡°What!? It shattered? The Extreme Yin Black Lotus shattered?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s a lotus from the holy land¡¯s lotus pond! How could it be broken?¡±


    ¡°Just by the strength of his physical body? No! This isn¡¯t right!¡±


    This was completely impossible in the other cultivators¡¯ eyes.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was abnormally strong, it was impossible to break through the defense of the Extreme Yin Black Lotus.


    If the lotus in the lotus pond of the Jade Lake Holy Land was so weak¡­ it wouldn¡¯t have such a great reputation.


    He might have used some other method to break the black lotus.


    Zhou Feng seized the opportunity when Yin Lin was shaken.


    ¡®Nuke Punch!


    The Spiritual Qi in the surroundings was absorbed crazily, and a small part of the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was also injected into


    it.


    ¡°Not good!¡±


    Yin Lin only felt his entire body begin to tense up. This was the aura of death!


    ¡®I can¡¯t conceal it anymore! If I continue to hide like this, I¡¯m going to die!¡¯


    Yin Lin no longer cared about any trump cards at that critical moment.


    He directly exposed his innate divine ability.


    Innate divine abilities could be unlocked at the Purple Mansion realm, and one could further develop them at the Divine Ability realm.


    The innate divine ability was much easier to use and cultivate than divine abilities.


    Yin Lin¡¯s innate divine ability was very simple and crude, which was to increase his own strength by three times within a short time.


    Moreover, there weren¡¯t too many side effects. It was just that he would need some time to recover his strength after the battle.


    That¡¯s right! It was just that exaggerated!


    Yin Lin¡¯s innate divine ability was the simplest and most violent type, directly increasing his strength by three times.


    Because of this innate divine ability, Yin Lin had managed to become a core Jade Lake disciple.


    Although he couldn¡¯t compare to Fairy Qing¡¯s status, his status wasn¡¯t low either.


    To the Jade Lake Holy Land, only someone like Yin Lin, who had a useful innate divine ability, could be considered a genius, and only then would he have the value to be nurtured.


    ¡°Get back!¡±


    Yin Lin¡¯s eyes turned cold, and his whole body suddenly became cold and merciless. His long black hair danced wildly in the wind.


    The surroundings rippled like an ocean, and his aura exploded.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Nuke Punch was vanquished, and the situation was reversed in an instant.


    This was one-sided suppression!

 Chapter 337 - Lotus Blossoming Technique

    Chapter 337 Lotus Blossoming Technique


    Originally, Zhou Feng thought that he was the only one who had used cheats.


    But he didn¡¯t expect that someone would be even more unreasonable when using cheats.


    The Endless Extreme Yin Qi instantly condensed together, and the seemingly endless golden Blood Qi on Zhou Feng¡¯s body instantly froze.


    Even Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was frozen.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    After Yin Lin released such an exaggerated aura, his entire body immediately became weak.


    His lips were slightly white, and his long black hair was disheveled.


    He did not expect that this person would actually force him to such an extent.


    He had actually revealed his innate divine ability.


    Originally, Yin Lin still wanted to continue hiding his innate divine ability.


    He would wait until the right time to use it. This could be said to be a super trump card.


    However, he hadn¡¯t expected that he would be forced to reveal it during the Celestial Lake Conference.


    His opponent was a mere Purple Mansion cultivator. Such an outcome truly made Yin Lin feel somewhat ashamed.


    ¡°It¡¯s over? That seems to be an innate divine ability!¡±


    ¡°Such an increase in aura! It¡¯s hard to explain apart from an innate divine ability!¡±


    ¡°Directly increasing one¡¯s strength by several times! It seems to be an innate divine ability called Spirit Enhancement!¡±


    Seeing that the battle had ended so suddenly, many discerning cultivators immediately realized that this was Yin Lin¡¯s innate divine ability.


    They didn¡¯t expect Yin Lin¡¯s innate divine ability to be Spirit Enhancement!


    This was one of the more terrifying innate divine abilities among the many innate divine abilities.


    As the name implied, it could forcefully increase one¡¯s own spiritual power and crush the enemy in an instant.


    However, even if it was such a terrifying innate divine ability, it couldn¡¯t be considered as the top innate divine ability.


    The top innate divine ability in the entire world was recorded in a book called 36 Divine Abilities.


    As long as one awakened any one of them, they could be called a prodigy and were destined to stir up the entire cultivation world.


    ¡°Lost?¡±


    Jiang Yi looked at Zhou Feng, who was frozen and couldn¡¯t move, and frowned slightly.


    This was impossible! If the person in front of him was the one the Great Elder had mentioned, he couldn¡¯t only possess this bit of strength.


    Moreover, Jiang Yi could feel that Zhou Feng¡¯s aura did not weaken but was actually increasing


    ¡°Something is wrong!¡±


    Not only did Jiang Yi feel that something was wrong, but also Yin Lin noticed that something was wrong.


    The avatar behind Zhou Feng had actually not weakened at all.


    Although Yin Lin had only relaxed for a moment, it was already too late.


    The dazzling golden Blood Qi started burning again.


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body seemed to be endless. It had been burning from the beginning until now, and it had no intention of stopping


    Moreover, his aura was getting more and more terrifying, and it was constantly rising.


    It seemed that he had never been blocked at all.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    A golden fist broke through everything and directly smashed into Yin Lin¡¯s body.


    Although Yin Lin immediately used the Extreme Yin Black Lotus¡¯ fragments to block it, they couldn¡¯t withstand such a violent attack.


    ¡°Lotus Blossoming Technique!¡± Yin Lin used a secret technique of the Jade Lake Holy Land immediately.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch didn¡¯t hit Yin Lin but hit a lotus flower instead.


    This lotus flower, which was condensed from Spiritual Qi, suddenly wrapped around Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    A mark appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s forehead.


    Lotus Blossoming Technique!


    Although the name of this secret technique was very simple and even a little inconspicuous, it was a well-known offensive secret technique. It was famous for its viciousness.


    Once one was wrapped around by this lotus flower, this lotus flower would parasitize one¡¯s body.


    It would start to slowly absorb everything in one¡¯s body, including Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi. In serious cases, it could even invade one¡¯s Soul Altar.


    It would slowly absorb the power of one¡¯s soul.


    If one wanted to break this secret technique, they would have to kill the person who used it at the first moment. Otherwise, one could only surrender.


    It was said that this secret technique was created by the Jade Lake Patriarch sitting in the lotus pond for three days and three nights.


    Only a few disciples in the entire Jade Lake Holy Land could learn it.


    Unexpectedly, Yin Lin was one of them.


    ¡°Lotus Blossoming Technique!?¡±


    ¡°Young Master Yin Lin has actually learned this offensive secret technique!¡±


    ¡°It seems that this battle is a tough one.¡±


    IIII


    The cultivators who had been watching all this time were once again shocked.


    Unexpectedly, the tables had turned once more!


    They had all thought that Zhou Feng¡¯s victory was certain. Even though Yin Lin had used his innate divine ability, he was still unable to suppress Zhou Feng.


    It was likely that Zhou Feng would create a miracle today. He would be able to defeat a Divine Ability cultivator.


    One had to know that before this, the holy lands¡¯ disciples had never been defeated by someone of a lower realm.


    Could it be that Zhou Feng was going to create a miracle today? That seemingly endless golden Blood Qi was simply invincible!


    If this continued, Yin Lin would definitely be exhausted to death. No wonder Young Master Jiang would call this person his brother.


    Such strength was not inferior to the holy lands¡¯ core disciples.


    Such a figure had appeared out of nowhere.


    But the matter seemed to have not been decided yet.


    If Zhou Feng could not withstand this Lotus Blossoming Technique, the final victor should still be Yin Lin.


    vas


    Zhou Feng felt as if his phys slowly being eaten away.


    His expression didn¡¯t change as he charged toward Yin Lin once again.


    The flames of Blood Qi on his body became even more intense. He pounced fiercely, directly hugging Yin Lin.


    Kacha!


    Zhou Feng gave him a death hug, breaking his spine.


    In contrast, the lotus flower that was parasitizing Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body grew countless roots and began to absorb everything in his body to aid its growth.


    Those with sharp eyes could still see the countless roots squirming in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    That terrifying scene caused countless people to suck in a breath of cold air.


    If this continued, Zhou Feng¡¯s foundation would be destroyed here.


    Zhou Feng was not willing to be outdone at this moment as he grabbed Yin Lin¡¯s neck with his right hand.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Yin Lin, who was struggling with all his might, saw Zhou Feng¡¯s expressionless face at this moment.


    Although the two of them still seemed to be in a stalemate, Yin Lin felt that he had lost for some reason.


    If no one stopped Zhou Feng, he would be the first one to die.


    ¡°Stop!¡±


    Just as this thought appeared in Yin Lin¡¯s mind, someone stopped the two of them. The battles at the Celestial Lake Conference were just a battle, not a fight to the death.


    If Yin Lin died in Celestial Lake City, it might cause a fight between the two holy lands.


    Therefore, this fight had to be stopped.


    Zhou Feng felt an irresistible force separating the two of them.


    At the same time, the lotus flower in his body was also expelled.


    Seeing this, he knew that it was impossible for him to kill Yin Lin here.


    Therefore, the restless Blood Qi in his body slowly calmed down.


    ¡°This should count as my victory!¡±


    Zhou Feng was still as expressionless as when the battle started.


    On the other hand, Yin Lin couldn¡¯t maintain the wanton and confident look he had before the battle.


    Now, he was in an utter state of shock.

 Chapter 338 - Emperor Coiling Scripture

    Chapter 338 Emperor Coiling Scripture


    ¡°Yin Lin has lost this match!¡±


    After the two were separated, a voice rang out.


    It was the end of this match.


    In the end, Zhou Feng won. Even though Yin Lin had used all kinds of techniques and trump cards, Zhou Feng was still better.


    In terms of toughness, Zhou Feng was much stronger!


    From the moment Yin Lin¡¯s aura was suppressed, it couldn¡¯t be pushed back.


    The surrounding cultivators could see it clearly.


    The avatar behind Zhou Feng had been firmly suppressing Yin Lin¡¯s Extreme Yin Avatar.


    Especially after Zhou Feng¡¯s victory was announced, the avatar¡¯s aura was even more vigorous as Yin Lin¡¯s avatar became its nourishment.


    This was how the Invincible Avatar was. Without defeating an enemy, it would grow by a bit.


    The stronger the enemy, the faster the growth.


    Zhou Feng had already restrained all of his


    aura.


    But the avatar behind him did not restrain itself. It just stood there silently.


    Its aura also became very faint, but no one would underestimate it.


    This person¡¯s Invincible Avatar was extremely sharp, which meant that Zhou Feng had never failed in his cultivation.


    Originally, they had been under the impression that Yin Lin would vanquish the Invincible Avatar, but it turned out to be like this.


    ¡°But even if he won, he must have paid a heavy price!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Can Zhou Feng still continue to fight?¡±


    ¡°The Lotus Blossoming Technique of the Jade Lake Holy Land was not all for naught! Even if it has just been dispelled, the injuries it has caused cannot be healed!¡±


    IIII


    Looking at the expressionless Zhou Feng, everyone was skeptical whether he could fight ever again.


    Just now, Zhou Feng had used all of his strength, and he created a miracle in the end.


    He was a Purple Mansion cultivator, yet he defeated Yin Lin.


    This was definitely worth mentioning. One had to know that Yin Lin was not some newbie who had just entered the Divine Ability realm.


    Instead, he was a genuine Divine Ability cultivator who had cultivated his innate divine ability to the initial stage.


    But for some unknown reason, when facing Zhou Feng, Yin Lin¡¯s innate divine ability did not seem to have any effect at all.


    Zhou Feng had completely blocked that seemingly powerful attack.


    When thinking about it carefully, in the battle just now, it seemed that other than a few moments, the rest of the time was Zhou Feng taking the initiative to attack. That tough physical body had a terrifying recovery ability.


    He had completely defeated Yin Lin!


    It was also fortunate that Yin Lin¡¯s innate divine ability was simple and crude enough to suppress Zhou Feng in that instant. It made everyone think that Zhou Feng had already lost.


    But unexpectedly, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi seemed to be endless.


    That burning golden Blood Qi would never be extinguished.


    In the end, this so-called Young Master Yin Lin was still unable to withstand Zhou Feng¡¯s simple and violent attacks.


    After such a summary, everyone could only treat Zhou Feng as a freak.


    The only thing worth discussing was the cultivation technique that Zhou Feng cultivated.


    This competition was originally a mutual exchange for everyone to see the paths that different cultivators took.


    Therefore, many people began to analyze why Zhou Feng was able to defeat Yin Lin.


    After all, in terms of strength on paper, Zhou Feng had no advantage at all.


    In the battle just now, he did not reveal any special techniques or use any special spiritual artifacts.


    On the other hand, Yin Lin not only had the protection of the Extreme Yin Black Lotus, but he also used the secret technique of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    In the end, he failed miserably.


    ¡°It seems that this person cultivates the Human Emperor Scripture!¡± ¡°That should be the case! Only a few cultivation techniques have such obvious characteristics with the golden Blood Qi!¡±


    ¡°It seems that he cultivates the cultivation technique of the Human Emperor called Pan!¡±


    ¡°It seems that the Emperor Coiling Scripture needs to be combined with various body-refining cultivation techniques and the Malevolent Earth Qi. It¡¯s quite difficult to cultivate it!¡±


    IL11


    The cultivators who came to participate in the Celestial Lake Conference were quite knowledgeable.


    Not only did they immediately recognize what cultivation technique Zhou Feng was cultivating, but they also knew that he was cultivating Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    The first Human Emperor Scripture that Zhou Feng cultivated was created by Human Emperor Pan, who was even older than the Human Emperor Great Void.


    At that time, the main cultivation style of the human race was body refinement, which trained the body to be comparable to that of demonic beasts.


    Taking the blood of thousands of demonic beasts to forge the invincible body of the Human Emperor¡ªthis was the true portrayal of Human Emperor Pan.


    From the beginning of his cultivation to stepping on the Human Emperor¡¯s throne, Human Emperor Pan had only been doing one thing, which was to constantly train his body.


    A bottleneck in the realm? For this Human Emperor, it simply didn¡¯t exist.


    Every time he reached the corresponding realm, this Human Emperor Pan would suddenly get enlightened and then break through.


    For example, compared to the current Divine Ability realm, this Human Emperor Pan had directly comprehended a powerful divine ability.


    Instantly increasing his own strength by ten times, a pair of flesh fists could kill Gods, Devils, and Buddhas.


    This was a true legend!


    Who knew how many primordial demonic beasts had died under that pair of fists?


    However, from the beginning to the end, only Human Emperor Pan had cultivated this Emperor Coiling Scripture. No one else had been able to cultivate it to that level.


    The three great holy lands had studied the Emperor Coiling Scripture before, and there were even some genius disciples who had cultivated it.


    or


    The entry requirement of the Emperor Coiling Scripture was to cultivate multiple body-refining techniques to allow one¡¯s physical strength to reach a certain standard.


    Then, one would use the Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate.


    In fact, this was similar to Zhou Feng¡¯s situation.


    Zhou Feng did not cultivate that many body-refining techniques. Instead, he relied on his Tenacious Heart to continuously recover from his injuries, allowing his body to quickly become stronger. In the end, he succeeded in cultivating.


    However, in the end, all those who cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture gave up.


    There was no other reason!


    This Emperor Coiling Scripture was not something that humans could cultivate. Even if one succeeded in cultivating it, they would be comparable to the other disciples in the holy land.


    In reality, there was not much of an advantage.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that someone could cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture to such an extent!¡±


    ¡°It must be that this person¡¯s innate ability is very compatible!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! That strange recovery speed should be this person¡¯s innate ability, which is compatible with the Emperor Coiling Scripture!¡±


    The cultivators watching below analyzed again.


    Yin Lin didn¡¯t have any face to stay on the stage. He slipped away without saying a word. ¡®I lost! And if they hadn¡¯t stopped him in time, that person would have already killed me!¡¯


    Yin Lin recalled Zhou Feng¡¯s calm eyes, and his heart couldn¡¯t help but tremble.


    ¡®This person is really a madman! He actually had the intention to kill just now!


    ¡®This kind of person doesn¡¯t care about the power behind me. If I meet this person outside, I must be careful.¡¯


    Zhou Feng had cast a shadow in Yin Lin¡¯s heart.


    His strength was secondary. The main thing was that Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was too terrifying


    He was bent on killing you without uttering a single word!


    He didn¡¯t communicate with you! You couldn¡¯t change this person¡¯s mind.


    Such a temperament was simply extremely dangerous! It was completely different from normal people¡¯s mindsets.


    He was a living lunatic, just like those gluttonous old Demons.


    This was Yin Lin¡¯s evaluation of Zhou Feng.

 Chapter 339 - The Emperor Coiling Scripture?

    Chapter 339 The Emperor Coiling Scripture?


    ¡®Phew¡­ It¡¯s still alright!¡¯


    Leng Maner, who was silently watching the battle from the side, heaved a sigh of relief.


    She did not expect that this battle would have such twists and turns.


    A few times, she thought that Zhou Feng would definitely lose.


    But in the end, Zhou Feng still managed to stabilize himself,


    That kind of mysterious strength was reassuring.


    Leng Maner also did not know how Zhou Feng did it.


    He clearly didn¡¯t have many methods, and his attacks were plain and unadorned, yet they had decent effects.


    For example, that Extreme Yin Black Lotus, could one damage it with their physical body?


    Leng Maner had been here for quite some time.


    She naturally knew about the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s lotus pond¡ªthat Spirit Essence Lotus definitely didn¡¯t live up to its reputation.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng was able to shatter it.


    Zhou Feng had already displayed this mysterious strength in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    But soon after, Leng Maner started to worry.


    One wouldn¡¯t fight a single battle during the Celestial Lake Conference. To obtain the final spot, one would need to accept countless challenges.


    Although Zhou Feng had clearly defeated Yin Lin, did he still have any strength left?


    This might be a great opportunity for the others!


    Just as Leng Maner thought, the gazes of many people in the surroundings changed slightly.


    There was less than 1/10 of Zhou Feng¡¯s strength left right now. If one went up to challenge him, they would defeat him in the end.


    At least, they could be considered to have defeated Zhou Feng, who had defeated Yin Lin.


    If one rounded it up, wouldn¡¯t that mean that Zhou Feng was stronger than the disciples of the holy lands?


    The atmosphere in the surroundings began to change.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s goal was to get a spot to bathe in the immortal lake, defeating Yin Lin was just the beginning.


    Facing such unfair rules, Zhou Feng could only keep winning. He could get this precious spot by beating everyone present to a pulp.


    ¡®Not bad. No one came up to challenge me in a short period. This time is enough.¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked around indifferently.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, he began to recover from his injuries.


    It was exactly what everyone had thought, that Lotus Blossoming Technique was too vicious.


    Even though it had already been expelled, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was still riddled with thousands of holes.


    If he had been a step later, the lotus roots might have devoured his internal organs.


    This kind of secret attack could instantly kill a person without any preparation. Such a terrifying injury would have killed an ordinary person hundreds of times, but it was nothing to Zhou Feng.


    After leaving the battle, his passive Tenacious Heart was triggered.


    A large amount of Blood Qi began to be consumed, and his injuries recovered rapidly.


    Moreover, because of the passive Blood Qi Recovery, the consumption of his Blood Qi was not as severe as he had imagined.


    The passive Blood Qi Recovery could recover the Blood Qi that had dissipated during battle, recovering 30% of it.


    Coupled with the upper limit of the Blood Qi provided by the second heart, Zhou Feng immediately recovered to peak condition.


    That¡¯s right! While the others were still considering whether they should fight or not, his injuries had completely healed!


    The only price he had to pay was the Blood Qi in his body.


    Now, Zhou Feng was able to fight for 300 rounds!


    ¡®Moreover, defeating this Young Master Yin Lin should be considered to have changed his destiny. Then, the skill panel¡­


    Zhou Feng was very clear that this was far from enough to obtain the quota to bathe in the immortal lake.


    It was far from enough to rely solely on his current strength.


    Hence, he needed to continue becoming stronger!


    And the best way to become stronger was naturally to obtain more passive skills.


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng had guessed the rule of obtaining passive skills.


    As long as one¡¯s destiny was changed, the progress bar on the skill panel would increase.


    Thus, he checked the skill panel at the first moment.


    Firstly, he wanted to verify if his guess was right.


    Secondly, he wanted to improve his strength immediately.


    If he obtained a sufficiently abnormal passive skill, he would have more confidence and continue standing there.


    ¡®Can draw passive skills!¡¯


    The skill panel opened, and it was indeed the draw state.


    In other words, his speculation was correct!


    He could draw new passive skills again!


    ¡®Draw!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was calm on the surface, but he was a little anxious in his heart.


    He had to draw new passive skills as fast as possible.


    Only in this way could he increase his strength the fastest.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    The drawing speed was extremely fast! Soon, a new passive skill appeared in front of him.


    Blood Qi Boost: Your attack will carry an additional 5% of Blood Qi.


    Note: The additional Blood Qi power is calculated as a percentage of the total amount of Blood Qi. At the same time, it will not consume the Blood Qi power.


    ¡®Blood Qi Boost?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not waste much time fully understanding the meaning of this passive skill.


    Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to directly increasing the attack power?


    Every punch he threw would have an additional Blood Qi power, 5% of his total Blood Qi.


    In other words, it would increase along with his Blood Qi power.


    Suppose his Blood Qi power was 100 points. Then, every attack of his would be accompanied by 5 points of damage.


    And there was no consumption at all.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi was potent because he cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture. Then there was the passive Second Heart, which gave him a second heart and doubled the upper limit of his Blood Qi reserves.


    It could be said that the passive Blood Qi Boost was simply tailored for him. It was another passive skill that directly increased his strength!


    As Zhou Feng was immersed in joy, someone finally came to his senses.


    ¡°We can¡¯t let this person recover! Hurry up and attack!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! If this drags on, it will only allow this person to recover. We must take this opportunity.¡±


    As soon as these words were said, someone instantly rushed up to the cloud platform.


    ¡°Haha! Let me have a go at you!¡±


    A man with exaggerated muscles stared at the expressionless Zhou Feng.


    Why were this man¡¯s muscles so exaggerated?


    It was because this man¡¯s muscles were like dragons intertwined with each other, hugging each other tightly.


    The muscles did not feel like flesh at all. Instead, they were like pieces of steel ingots.


    At the same time, his body was exuding a savage aura. The massive amount of Blood Qi also caused the surrounding temperature to rise rapidly.


    ¡°Kid! I also cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture. Today, I¡¯ll let you see how the Emperor Coiling Scripture is cultivated!¡±


    ¡°Emperor Coiling Scripture? Are you talking about the Human Emperor Scripture that I cultivate? So its name is Emperor Coiling Scripture?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not care about the man in front of him.


    Instead, he was attracted by the Emperor Coiling Scripture that he mentioned.


    After learning this name, Zhou Feng might be able to find the second half of the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    At that time, he would not need to hang himself on the tree of the Great Void Primordial Art.

 Chapter 340 - A Crushing Defeat?

    Chapter 340 A Crushing Defeat?


    ¡°Who is this person?¡±


    ¡°He doesn¡¯t seem to be a disciple of a holy land but a disciple of a small sect!¡±


    ¡°But it seems that the entire sect is studying and cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture.¡±


    ¡°I see. I didn¡¯t expect so many people to cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture!¡±


    The man on the stage wasn¡¯t from a holy land.


    Therefore, many people didn¡¯t even know his name, let alone his nickname.


    The only thing they knew was that he came from a small sect that cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    It was strange that so many people cultivated such a difficult cultivation technique?


    Besides, the Emperor Coiling Scripture wasn¡¯t suitable for cultivation, and it was tough to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Why were all of them rushing to cultivate it?


    Jin Peng looked at Zhou Feng and said with certainty, ¡°I guess you¡¯re not hiding your strength. It¡¯s because you can¡¯t break through to the Divine Ability realm!¡±


    That¡¯s right! Jin Peng was sure that Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t break through at all.


    It was challenging to break through to the Divine Ability realm by cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    The reason was that after cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture, one¡¯s physical body would be too terrifying and perfectly round.


    It would not be enough to baptize the entire physical body, including the nascent soul, if one only comprehended ordinary divine abilities.


    This restricted one to comprehending only top-tier divine abilities in order to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Simply put, the disciple was too good.


    If one casually comprehended a divine ability to break through to the Divine Ability realm, they would definitely fail in the end.


    Actually, this was the weakness of all the Human Emperor Scriptures.


    After all, to those Human Emperors, comprehending divine abilities was as easy as eating and drinking.


    Each Human Emperor Scripture even had a corresponding divine ability and the supplementary techniques to cultivate these divine abilities.


    The Great Void Primordial Art was an example.


    But the divine ability recorded in the Emperor Coiling Scripture was called the Divine Ability of Strength.


    It was the oldest divine ability. Although it was not included in the 36 Divine Abilities, its difficulty was not inferior to that of the 36 Divine Abilities.


    It could even be said to be even more difficult.


    This divine ability that purely increased one¡¯s strength was simply too difficult to comprehend.


    Jin Peng had managed to break through entirely because he cultivated the improved version of the Emperor Coiling Scripture. Only then could he successfully break through.


    However, if he wasn¡¯t mistaken, Zhou Feng was actually cultivating the original version of the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    Moreover, he had cultivated it to such a level, directly surpassing the level of the Purple Mansion realm to defeat the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡®Is it difficult to break through to the Divine Ability realm after cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned. Clearly, he didn¡¯t have so much inside information.


    The person in front of him seemed to know a lot of things. It seemed that he was still waiting for him to ask a question.


    Asking for help? Forget it!


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng did not want to ask for help. It was more reliable to rely on himself to explore slowly. Now, it was better to take the spot to bathe in the immortal lake.


    He thought for a while and soon made up his mind.


    ¡°What do you think? I think¡ª¡±


    Jin Peng looked at the silent Zhou Feng and wanted to say something.


    After all, it was not easy to meet a cultivator who was also practicing the Emperor Coiling Scripture, so Jin Peng could not help but want to exchange some insights.


    It would be even better if he could figure out how Zhou Feng cultivated.


    That¡¯s right! Jin Peng¡¯s purpose was not pure. He just wanted to figure out the secret of Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation.


    As for helping Zhou Feng solve the problem? The two of them had no relationship at all. They had only met once. Why should he help Zhou Feng?


    But before he could finish his words, Zhou Feng directly took action.


    Golden Blood Qi gushed out again. The golden Blood Qi, which seemed never to be extinguished, shone in all directions again.


    Moreover, compared to just now, the surging Blood Qi did not decrease at all.


    ¡°He¡¯s¡­ fine?¡±


    ¡°His injuries have already recovered? During this short period?¡±


    ¡°Not only has he not become weaker, but he¡¯s even stronger? Look! The shadow behind him!¡±


    IIII


    What left the cultivators dumbfounded was that Zhou Feng¡¯s aura hadn¡¯t weakened at all.


    Instead, it became even more terrifying!


    Especially that Invincible Avatar, the shadow that was based on Zhou Feng, actually solidified a little.


    The power that was emitted unconsciously made people feel as if their hands and feet were tied.


    No way! Could it be that this Invincible Avatar was going to evolve?


    He had never heard of anyone who could condense an Invincible Avatar that could evolve.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    Jin Peng did not expect that this person would be so difficult to communicate with. He charged forward without saying a word.


    But he was not a pushover either!


    He did not believe that Zhou Feng was not even half injured. The battle with Yin Lin had definitely caused Zhou Feng to suffer a serious injury, especially the Lotus Blossoming Technique. That roots had clearly entered Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    As such, Zhou Feng should be pretending.


    In an instant, golden light soared to the sky,


    Jin Peng¡¯s body also erupted with the golden Blood Qi.


    The amount of Blood Qi also filled the sky, endless.


    Jin Peng¡¯s body looked even more exaggerated under the contrast of the golden Blood Qi. The muscles seemed to be made of gold.


    Dong!


    The two fists collided, producing an extremely dull sound.


    The two bodies exploded with pure power.


    The two waves of golden Blood Qi collided and even shot into the sky, dispersing the clouds.


    ¡°Why!?¡±


    Jin Peng¡¯s face slightly changed because he felt that Zhou Feng¡¯s fist contained a condensed Blood Qi.


    He was not Zhou Feng¡¯s opponent in a head-on confrontation!?


    This was impossible! They were both cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture, and he had the advantage in terms of realm.


    How could he be at a disadvantage?


    ¡®Easier than this so-called Young Master Yin Lin¡­¡¯


    After the confrontation ended, Zhou Feng immediately gave an evaluation in his heart.


    The person in front of him was not as good as Yin Lin, and defeating him did not require much effort.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s many passive skills allowed him to gain the upper hand in just a few breaths.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s golden fist landed on Jin Peng¡¯s head.


    The scorching golden Blood Qi instantly dyed the entire sky golden.


    ¡°Pfft¡±


    Jin Peng spat a mouthful of pale golden blood and a few teeth.


    After the passive Fighting Spirit, Adaptive Shell, and the other passive skills were maxed out and superimposed, Jin Peng was no match for Zhou Feng at all.


    There was also the strange avatar behind Zhou Feng, which had been suppressing Jin Peng from the very beginning.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Jin Peng roared angrily! His hair danced wildly, and terrifying fluctuations erupted from his body.


    But just as he began to resist, Zhou Feng¡¯s fist arrived.


    One punch! One elbow!


    Jin Peng was beaten until he vomited blood again, and his eyes were still filled with disbelief.


    He was actually crushed? This was more or less a joke!


    This was a complete crushing. Jin Peng was like a child before Zhou Feng.


    Whether it was strength or aura, he was suppressed in all aspects.


    Such an outcome was something that Jin Peng did not expect.

 Chapter 341 - A Moment of Courage

    Chapter 341 A Moment of Courage


    Jin Peng could never have imagined that his combat experience and combat skills would be completely suppressed.


    If his physical body could not be compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s, then forget it. After all, refining one¡¯s physical body was a matter that relied heavily on one¡¯s talent.


    If one¡¯s talent was not enough, then no matter how hard one tried, they could not be compared to those monsters.


    What terrified Jin Peng the most was still Zhou Feng¡¯s combat skills.


    When Zhou Feng had been fighting against Yin Lin, Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying fighting skills had not been displayed yet.


    After all, Yin Lin¡¯s every move was surrounded by the Extreme Yin Qi.


    With a swing of the Extreme Yin Sword, the Sword Qi that was dozens of feet long swept across everything.


    It was difficult to dodge, but when facing a cultivator like Jin Peng, who specialized in the physical body, the passive Battle Instinct was displayed.


    What the opponent wanted to do and what Zhou Feng should do next, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to consider these things. All kinds of decisions were automatically handed over to his body.


    Using intuition to fight was the most terrifying thing.


    Zhou Feng was still in his indefatigable, golden, and bloody state.


    The sharp aura suppressed Jin Peng so much that he could not even raise his head.


    ¡°Next!¡±


    Zhou Feng punched Jin Peng¡¯s chest.


    He had won this battle, and Jin Peng couldn¡¯t continue fighting.


    The moment he defeated Jin Peng, the avatar behind him seemed to have taken a tonic.


    The faint power became more and more heavy, like a majestic mountain. It was majestic, like the power of heaven and earth.


    Jin Peng became Zhou Feng¡¯s stepping stone.


    His Invincible Avatar began to become terrifying ¡°I¡­¡±


    Jin Peng, on the ground, opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn¡¯t say anything.


    He was defeated too quickly!


    Jin Peng now looked like he was deliberately delivering vegetables.


    It was so weak!


    ¡°It has grown again! It has grown so obviously?¡±


    ¡°What will happen if this person keeps winning?¡±


    ¡°No! We can¡¯t challenge them one by one. Otherwise, it will become a stepping stone!¡±


    Fear and hesitation appeared in the eyes of the surrounding cultivators.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s current aura was simply too overwhelming.


    Although he had definitely used up quite a bit of his energy, his aura hadn¡¯t weakened at all.


    If one rashly stepped onto the stage, they would most likely become Zhou Feng¡¯s stepping stone.


    Become someone¡¯s stepping stone? No matter who it was, no one would choose to do this.


    Also, the strength that Zhou Feng displayed was simply too monstrous.


    He clearly didn¡¯t have any divine abilities and was only at the Purple Mansion realm, yet he still managed to defeat two Divine Ability cultivators.


    Even though Jin Peng didn¡¯t have the chance to actually fight against him with his divine abilities.


    That¡¯s right! Jin Peng didn¡¯t even have the chance to use his divine abilities in the battle with Zhou Feng.


    He had been suppressed right from the start, and then every time he wanted to counterattack, he was ruthlessly suppressed.


    If you dare to use your divine abilities, I¡¯ll exchange injuries for injuries and directly cripple you!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fierce fighting style was deeply rooted in the people¡¯s hearts.


    For Zhou Feng to obtain such a dazzling battle result, other than his terrifying strength, there was also another very important point, which was madness!


    After all, this was just a simple battle. Although the quota to bathe in the immortal lake was very important, it was still not as important as his poor life. There was also the cultivation path that was important in the future!


    Fighting to the death with Zhou Feng here wasn¡¯t very rewarding.


    Many one-time trump cards couldn¡¯t be used under such circumstances.


    Always keeping a trump card for yourself was something that all cultivators would do.


    This was because the experience of countless seniors dying had taught their descendants that they should never reveal everything about themselves.


    They should leave behind a trump card that could turn the tide of the battle at a critical moment.


    Thus, all cultivators above the Purple Mansion realm would have a habit.


    That was to prepare countless trump cards for themselves to prevent them from accidentally dying.


    The higher the realm, the more common this situation would be.


    After all, they had already cultivated to this realm, and no one wanted to suddenly die.


    It was not an easy thing to kill a Divine Ability cultivator.


    Even a heaven¡¯s favorite like Jiang Yi might not be able to instantly kill an ordinary Divine Ability cultivator in the wild.


    He would probably need to waste a lot of effort.


    The higher the realm, the more afraid of death one would be. This had already become a consensus in the cultivation world.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s reckless fighting style was extremely rare.


    It could even be said that there were not many of them.


    Even if he did not die accidentally in such a battle, there would be all kinds of internal injuries in his body.


    There would definitely be a lot of obstacles for him to break through in the future. This was a very stupid thing.


    This kind of fighting style gave Zhou Feng a great advantage.


    Although Jin Peng looked miserable, even his teeth had been knocked out, and traces of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, this little injury could be recovered very quickly, and there wouldn¡¯t be any sequelae as long as he received simple treatment.


    Cherish one¡¯s body!


    All the Sect Leaders would engrave these three words to the disciples.


    In normal times, one naturally had to cherish one¡¯s body to avoid all kinds of accidents.


    But if it came to a critical moment, one had to fight for one¡¯s life!


    For example, in the mystic realm, in the wild, in an unfamiliar place.


    In order to save one¡¯s life, one had to fight for one¡¯s life!


    This was something that a cultivator had to learn.


    Such things were only taught by those large sects and ancient clans.


    There was no one to teach a vagabond cultivator like Zhou Feng. He didn¡¯t even have a Master.


    Therefore, in many people¡¯s eyes, although Zhou Feng was dazzling, he wouldn¡¯t last long. Although this kind of martial maniac could be brave for a while, it wasn¡¯t a long-term plan.


    ¡°Forget it! Let¡¯s not fight with this kind of martial maniac!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! The quota for bathing in the immortal lake might not be guaranteed with so many people!¡±


    ¡°I give up, too! Anyway, bathing in the immortal lake isn¡¯t our goal!¡±


    After considering many things, many cultivators finally gave up the idea of going on the stage.


    They just let Zhou Feng flaunt his power on the stage for a while.


    In any case, even a real monster like Jiang Yi didn¡¯t go on the stage.


    ¡°No one is going to continue the challenge? Then, is there a problem with Zhou Feng taking a spot?¡±


    No one answered.


    Then, Zhou Feng directly obtained a spot to bathe in the immortal lake.


    So simple? He obtained a spot so easily!?


    Zhou Feng never thought he would obtain the qualification to bathe in the immortal lake by defeating two people.


    This was because he had heard all sorts of rumors and different opinions.


    The quota for bathing in the immortal lake was rare. It was impossible to obtain it so easily.


    He had already made preparations for a long battle!


    This outcome was something he had never expected.

 Chapter 342 - Leng Maners Interrogation

    Chapter 342 Leng Maner¡¯s Interrogation


    Originally, Zhou Feng had thought that obtaining the spot to bathe in the immortal lake would take some twists and turns.


    But the final result was exceptionally smooth.


    He didn¡¯t want to obtain it so quickly, even in his heart.


    Because now was a great opportunity for him to continuously battle. This kind of orderly one-vs-one battle could allow him to grow quickly.


    At the same time, he didn¡¯t have to worry about his own safety.


    Firstly, his Invincible Avatar could continue to grow.


    Secondly, every time he defeated a person, he would be able to speed up the progress bar on the skill panel.


    Zhou Feng had just taken a look and found that the progress bar, which had just been zero, had increased by almost half.


    It was probably because Jin Peng wasn¡¯t as good as Yin Lin.


    Therefore, it did not increase as much as before.


    However, it was not a small amount either. After defeating two to three Divine Ability cultivators, he could obtain a passive skill.


    This was simply a bloody profit! Therefore, Zhou Feng did not want to obtain the quota to bathe in the immortal lake so soon.


    Compared to bathing in the so-called immortal lake, he preferred passive skills.


    As long as he obtained a few more passive skills, the immortal lake was nothing.


    Unfortunately, no one was willing to fight him.


    ¡®What a pity!¡¯


    Although Zhou Feng felt it was a pity in his heart, the Whale King Musk should be in his hands now.


    When the time came, he would try to use the Whale King Musk to carry out soul travel to the great void. What kind of effect would that have?


    Zhou Feng walked down the cloud platform while thinking of this.


    ¡°Such a prodigy was actually drawn over by the Jade Sword Holy Land again. Looks like the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s momentum hasn¡¯t weakened by much!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I¡¯m afraid that the Jade Lake Holy Land won¡¯t be able to rest and eat in peace!¡±


    ¡°But this is only the beginning. What¡¯s next is the main event!¡±


    Undoubtedly, Zhou Feng had attracted enough attention.


    However, most people still focused their attention on the upcoming battles.


    This was because a battle at Zhou Feng¡¯s level was only the appetizer.


    The main event was the next battle between Jiang Yi, Fairy Qing, and Sima Di.


    There was also the fact that the quota for Zhou Feng was not 100% confirmed. In the remaining time, anyone could continue to challenge him.


    He needed to defeat all the opponents who challenged him in the remaining time before he could truly confirm the quota.


    The next battles would be true Divine Ability battles.


    Zhou Feng hid at the side and quietly observed, taking advantage of this opportunity.


    ¡®Eh? This aura¡­¡¯


    Unexpectedly, just as he was about to observe the battle on the observation platform quietly, a familiar aura slowly approached.


    Turning his head, he saw a graceful woman wearing a veil standing behind him.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go. Follow me.¡±


    That familiar voice caused Zhou Feng to recognize who the person in front of him was immediately.


    ¡®Leng Maner? It¡¯s actually her? Why is she here as well?


    ¡®9th Level of the Purple Manion realm? So fast!¡¯


    If he remembered correctly, Leng Maner had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm the last time they had met.


    Leng Maner¡¯s progress was quite outstanding after not seeing each other for a while!


    But thinking about it, Leng Maner¡¯s aptitude was not weak, and she had also inherited the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s accumulated wealth.


    It was not an exaggeration to say that her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds.


    Moreover, Leng Maner had the sect¡¯s inheritance, so it was much easier for her to break through to the Divine Ability realm than it was for him.


    When Leng Maner broke through to the Divine Ability realm, Zhou Feng might still be stuck in the Purple Mansion realm.


    Soon, the two of them walked to a side courtyard.


    Some people saw Zhou Feng leave during this time, but they only took a few glances and did not continue paying attention.


    After all, although Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was amazing, it always gave people the feeling that his potential was insufficient.


    Just like when Zhou Feng had been in Heavenly Star City, even if his strength was outstanding, no one thought that Zhou Feng could go far on the road of cultivation.


    Because of his various performances and actions, he didn¡¯t have the demeanor of a true cultivator at all.


    His background was evidently nothing special, and his future prospects were really bleak.


    On the other hand, Jiang Yi took a few more glances at Zhou Feng. Unfortunately, he couldn¡¯t just walk around casually.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to come here. But I¡¯m not surprised. Only the three great holy lands could attract you in the Southern Border!¡±


    As Leng Maner spoke, she removed her veil.


    The moment the veil was removed, an exquisite face appeared in front of him.


    Her eyebrows were like green feathers, her muscles were like white snow, her waist was like a belt, and her teeth were like braided scallops.


    After not seeing her for a long time, Leng Maner¡¯s appearance was even more beautiful than before.


    It was probably because her cultivation had advanced, which resulted in her being even more beautiful than before.


    Moreover, Leng Maner¡¯s temperament had also changed greatly, her eyebrows¡¯ exuding a valiant aura.


    The high and mighty aura of a great empress had mostly worn off. She must have encountered many things and received a lot of tempering.


    Such a valiant aura, coupled with her exquisite face, gave one a desire to conquer her.


    No wonder Leng Maner had been wearing a veil.


    If she did not wear a veil, many cultivators would likely pursue her.


    In contrast with Zhou Feng¡¯s previous life, people in this world pursued their spouses and dao partners most directly.


    This was because an outstanding spouse would be able to give birth to even more outstanding offspring.


    After all, bloodlines and aptitude could be passed down.


    Under such circumstances, the strength of one¡¯s cultivation directly became a rigid standard.


    And if one¡¯s strength and appearance were both excellent, then they would be even more sought after.


    For someone like Leng Maner, who was already at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm at such a young age¡­


    Her looks could also be said to be unrivaled. She was definitely an excellent dao companion material.


    It was very normal for her to provoke the wild bees and the wild butterflies.


    To put it bluntly, in the eyes of many women, Zhou Feng was also a sought-after commodity.


    With such strength and looks, it would be best if they could be snatched away as a dao companion.


    It was also common for female cultivators to forcefully snatch men.


    Zhou Feng was not used to talking to others, so he replied dryly, ¡°It¡¯s quite a coincidence.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re still the same. It seems that you didn¡¯t encounter any difficulties during this period.¡±


    Leng Maner looked at the expressionless Zhou Feng, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up.


    Coupled with her beautiful face, she was like a blooming cold and bright flower, especially attractive.


    Even Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed slightly.


    Leng Maner was not like this before. It seemed that she had experienced a lot during this period.


    However, Zhou Feng felt that there was nothing much to say at this time.


    Therefore, he did not say anything and just quietly looked at Leng Maner.


    Speaking of which, Leng Maner could be considered one of his few friends. Meeting a good friend in a strange place was supposed to be a happy occasion, but he did not know what to say.


    ¡°Why did the Death Substitution Gu¡¯s aura disappear? Could you tell me?¡±


    For some reason, Zhou Feng suddenly felt that Leng Maner¡¯s tone had become sharp.


    ¡®Death Substitution Gu?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly remembered that because he had the passive Nirvana Rebirth, this Death Substitution Gu was not useful.


    So¡­

 Chapter 343 - Partnership?

    Chapter 343 Partnership?


    Zhou Feng hesitated for a moment, but he still told the truth. ¡°I gave the Death Substitution Gu to another person.¡±


    He deliberately hid Li Rong¡¯s gender, however.


    ¡°That person owes me a favor, and I have other life-saving methods anyway,¡±


    When he said this, he did not know why, but his tone was a little weak.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    It was rare seeing Zhou Feng explain so much.


    Leng Maner did not say anything.


    But when she thought of the Death Substitution Gu, Leng Maner¡¯s heart still ached.


    That was a life-saving Gu, and it was not so easy to refine it again. Yet, this man gave it to someone else¡­ ¡°What about you? What are you here for?¡± Zhou Feng changed the topic.


    Although he had the intention to change the topic, he was still very curious about Leng Maner¡¯s recent situation.


    After all, she had broken through so quickly in such a short period. There were definitely many twists and turns.


    ¡°I am naturally here for the Celestial Lake Auction!¡±


    Leng Maner looked at Zhou Feng deeply before casually talking about the recent events.


    After dealing with A¡¯Rixi, Leng Maner had a large number of resources from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Naturally, she couldn¡¯t join other sects. After all, she had a lot of things on her now.


    If other cultivators found out, it would be troublesome if they got greedy.


    Thus, Leng Maner had been wandering alone.


    She collected all kinds of resources to cultivate Gus and broke through at the same time.


    Those who cultivated the Gu Dao would experience fast breakthroughs when sufficient resources were available.


    Leng Maner¡¯s Ice Spirit Gu had already undergone several transformations.


    Those who cultivated the Gu Dao didn¡¯t need to comprehend a divine ability to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    They only needed to assist their Vital Gus to transform.


    And once their Vital Gu transformed to the Divine Ability realm, they would naturally be able to comprehend the divine ability of their Vital Gu as the host.


    The Ice Spirit Gu¡¯s divine ability was probably biased toward the Ice Spirit Dao.


    However, Leng Maner needed a few special spiritual items to allow the Ice Spirit Gu to evolve.


    These spiritual items were invaluable, so Leng Maner came to Celestial Lake City.


    ¡°That¡¯s it. But those few spiritual items are expensive, and the sect¡¯s inventory has already been depleted.


    ¡°I hope everything goes smoothly.¡±


    When facing Zhou Feng, Leng Maner seemed to have found a vent.


    She told Zhou Feng a lot of things.


    She even told him the secret of breaking through to the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡°I see.¡±


    Zhou Feng nodded.


    He didn¡¯t expect that it would be so easy to break through to the Divine Ability realm for Gu practitioners.


    Compared to him needing to comprehend a divine ability, it was much easier to break through by relying on the Vital Gu.


    Moreover, their strength was not much weaker.


    As a former Tri-Gu disciple, he naturally knew the Tri-Gu disciples¡¯ fighting style.


    When a person and their Gu worked in tandem, it was equivalent to two Divine Ability cultivators working together.


    However, the Gu Dao consumed too many


    resources.


    Leng Maner used to have the resources of a sect, but she had almost used them up.


    This Gu Dao was more like the Endless Pit Dao, requiring many spiritual items to assist in cultivation.


    ¡°I¡¯m also here to find a way to break through to the Divine Ability realm. Oh right, do you have a way to earn Spirit Stones?¡±


    Zhou Feng briefly explained his current situation.


    Then, the topic changed to earning Spirit Stones.


    There was no other way!


    At present, he was too short of Spirit Stones.


    He needed numerous Spirit Stones to speed up his cultivation speed and also wanted to get a few spiritual artifacts.


    It was too strenuous to rely on his physical body to fight all the time.


    Zhou Feng was not one of those body cultivators who did not use any spiritual artifacts. It would be best if he had a suitable spiritual artifact.


    In the end, he did not want to turn his physical body into a weapon but to live forever.


    Therefore, as long as he could improve his strength, he would not reject it.


    Leng Maner¡¯s bright eyes stared at Zhou Feng for a while.


    Then she simply replied, ¡°No.¡±


    To be honest, Leng Maner did not have the means to earn Spirit Stones.


    All of her abilities were focused on cultivating Gu, and she had even given up her favorite Snow Condor in order to cultivate Gu.


    If not for the foundation left behind by the sect, she would have long run out of Spirit Stones.


    Once, Leng Maner also wanted to sell some Gus, but most cultivators still liked pills and spiritual artifacts in the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s sphere of influence.


    Not many cultivators had the enthusiasm to buy strange things like Gus.


    After all, many people were also afraid of being inexplicably tricked.


    ¡°How about we partner up?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately proposed his idea.


    That¡¯s right! He wanted to work together with Leng Maner to earn Spirit Stones.


    Numerous vagabond cultivators gathered in Celestial Lake City.


    And the reason these vagabond cultivators gathered here was that the Celestial Lake City would issue some dangerous missions.


    These missions were often extremely dangerous, but the rewards were very generous.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s goal was these missions.


    Although he was very confident in his strength, sometimes his strength alone was not enough to deal with some situations.


    He was strong but did not have enough tricks and strange methods.


    If he did these missions alone, the efficiency would be very slow.


    However, if Leng Maner cooperated with him, he would even hunt Divine Ability cultivators.


    ¡°Let¡¯s split the reward evenly. How about it?¡±


    Zhou Feng directly expressed his thoughts. He even planned the distribution of the benefits.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Leng Maner hesitated for a moment because this proposal sounded very good.


    She and Zhou Feng could be considered to have a certain foundation of trust, so Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was not an issue.


    He was definitely stronger than her, but the split was 50-50.


    Zhou Feng could be considered to be very sincere. In addition, during this period, Leng Maner also understood the vagabond cultivators¡¯ difficulties.


    On the path of cultivation, it was simply too difficult to rely on one¡¯s own strength.


    Even if one was a vagabond, if they wanted to become famous through cultivation, they would at least need a few close friends to support one another. Otherwise, it would be difficult to tell one how difficult it was to be alone.


    Although she had the thought of agreeing, Leng Maner¡¯s beautiful eyes shifted as she softly asked back, ¡°Do you really trust me that much?¡±


    Zhou Feng told her the fundamental reason for his cooperation with Leng Maner in an extremely honest manner, ¡°It¡¯s not trust. It¡¯s that you can¡¯t kill me while I can kill you.¡±


    That¡¯s right!


    Leng Maner¡¯s cultivation level may be on par with his, but her actual combat strength was far inferior to his.


    He could even kill Divine Ability cultivators with the support of all kinds of passive skills.


    On the other hand, Leng Maner¡¯s battle prowess was not that special.


    In addition to his passive Battle Instinct, as long as someone wanted to plot against him, he would be able to detect it in advance.


    Also, Zhou Feng had a good understanding of the Gu Dao.


    If he cooperated with Leng Maner, he did not need to worry about his safety.


    On the contrary, Leng Maner needed to be careful. If she was careless, she would be easily tricked by Zhou Feng.


    For this reason, Zhou Feng was not worried about working together to earn Spirit Stones.


    ¡°I really¡­¡±


    Leng Maner was furious upon hearing that.


    ¡®As expected! Zhou Feng was still the same Zhou Feng! It¡¯s impossible for him to have other thoughts.¡¯

 Chapter 344 - The Most Violent Attack

    Chapter 344 The Most Violent Attack


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Leng Maner gnashed her teeth and agreed.


    Partnering with Zhou Feng was already a good suggestion.


    After all, Leng Maner was no longer the princess of the Tri-Gu Sect. She needed to earn Spirit Stones by herself. If she didn¡¯t have enough Spirit Stones, then she wouldn¡¯t be able to continue breaking through.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s suggestion was actually not harmful to Leng Maner. ¡°Oh right, can one auction whatever they want?¡±


    Seeing that Leng Maner had agreed, Zhou Feng changed the topic again.


    Although it looked beautiful to work with Leng Maner to earn Spirit Stones, it would take a lot of time to earn them.


    However, the auction was coming soon. How could they auction without Spirit Stones?


    Therefore, Zhou Feng thought of selling some things in exchange for Spirit Stones.


    ¡°You want to auction your stuff? Forget it. This auction doesn¡¯t accept all items!¡±


    The standard of the Celestial Lake Auction this time wasn¡¯t ordinary..


    ¡°It¡¯s fine, I can try!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care.


    Not only did he obtain a new passive skill today, but he also met an old friend. It was a very happy occasion.


    However, he could not stay here for too long.


    He did not know if the battle over there had ended.


    Zhou Feng did not forget the Whale King Musk that Jiang Yi had promised him.


    Also, he had not truly obtained a spot to bathe in the immortal lake.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go back first.¡±


    Leng Maner did not say anything. She gently put on her veil and followed behind Zhou Feng


    During the time that Zhou Feng and Leng Maner had been away, the battles for the spots had become even more intense, with all kinds of divine abilities appearing one after another.


    During this period, Fairy Qing Yao had also come up to the stage to battle.


    This Fairy Qing did not even reveal too much of her strength before she overwhelmingly defeated her opponent. When she was fighting, many fragrant green lotuses fell from the sky.


    Unknowingly, her opponent had lost the ability to fight.


    Her strength was unpredictable, and it was unknown whether she had reached the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Besides Fairy Qing, Sima Di and Jiang Yi had also fought before.


    They had defeated everyone in one go.


    Now, the other cultivators were all fighting for the remaining spot. ¡°How terrifying! This person has comprehended the Dao of Mountains?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! The divine ability this person comprehended seems to be related to mountains. Once he moves, his body will be like carrying a huge mountain on his back. Every movement he makes will have the power to move mountains!¡±


    ¡°Moreover, as long as he steps on the ground, he will be able to borrow endless Earth Qi!¡±


    All the cultivators were discussing a young man on the stage.


    This young man looked honest and simple-minded. He was dressed in wheat-colored clothes and was wrapped in simple animal skin.


    He looked like a wild man in the mountains, but his strength was incomparably terrifying.


    Although he had just entered the Divine Ability realm, he was able to suppress several opponents without any effort continuously.


    He was even more eye-catching than Zhou Feng and should be considered this year¡¯s dark horse.


    Moreover, it was said that he was a vagabond cultivator. Who knew how many sects had already planned to rope this youth to their side?


    To be honest, the Celestial Lake Conference this time was full of surprises.


    Unexpectedly, there was a continuous stream of unknown experts.


    One had to know that only the disciples of the holy lands had obtained the five spots for bathing in the immortal lake in the previous Celestial Lake Conference.


    But now, it seemed that two of the five spots were actually occupied by vagabond cultivators.


    Many people regarded Zhou Feng as a vagabond cultivator due to his fighting style.


    That was why they said that two vagabond cultivators squeezed in to bathe in the immortal lake.


    This was an extraordinary matter.


    ¡°I want to challenge Zhou Feng!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng and Leng Maner returned there, someone immediately wanted to challenge Zhou Feng.


    Obviously, many people were not convinced that Zhou Feng had taken a spot.


    Zhou Feng was not there earlier, so challenging him was naturally not easy.


    Now that Zhou Feng had returned, someone immediately challenged him.


    Zhou Feng saw a person with long robes fluttering in the wind. He looked like an immortal with a longsword in his hand.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! Come up to the stage!¡±


    Ji Mingyu¡¯s face was expressionless, and his eyes were as still as an ancient well. However, the sharpness on his body was rising steadily.


    ¡°Ji Mingyu? Isn¡¯t this a genius born with a Sword Heart?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This person was born with a Sword Heart, but unfortunately, he joined the Jade Sword Holy Land a little late!¡±


    ¡°I heard that this person is from a branch of the Ji Clan and has a low status in the Ji Clan¡­¡±


    ¡°This is going to be a good show to watch!¡±


    Many people had some memories of this Ji Mingyu.


    Ji Mingyu was a Jade Sword disciple, so naturally, many people would pay attention to him.


    e


    However, it was a pity that although Ji Mingyu had a good aptitude and was born with a Sword Heart, he had started cultivating too late. He had been abandoned for a long time.


    Even so, Ji Mingyu had broken through to the Divine Ability realm in one go.


    Although he had just entered the Divine Ability realm, his swordsmanship could be said to be superb.


    He had defeated plenty of Divine Ability cultivators.


    ¡®A new passive skill is here~!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed with excitement upon hearing that someone was challenging him.


    In his eyes, Ji Mingyu was equivalent to a passive skill.


    The progress bar on the skill panel was only halfway full


    As long as he defeated Ji Mingyu, there was a high chance he would obtain another passive skill.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng instantly jumped onto the cloud platform.


    The surrounding formations flashed, preventing the aftershocks of the battle from affecting the nearby buildings.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng had stabilized himself, Ji Mingyu raised his sword-like eyebrows.


    The ordinary longsword in his hand instantly burst out with a resplendent radiance.


    The incomparably sharp Sword Qi arrived first, instantly piercing toward Zhou Feng¡¯s neck.


    He used a killing move the moment they met without uttering a word!


    The most orthodox sword cultivators didn¡¯t like to talk so much nonsense as most cultivators.


    They only liked to use the swords in their hands to reason.


    Ji Mingyu wanted to bathe in the immortal lake and improve his muscles and bones to make up for the lack of cultivation.


    And if he wanted to bathe in the immortal lake, he had to defeat Zhou Feng.


    Thus, there was no need to say anything. As long as he defeated Zhou Feng, it would be


    over!


    Zhou Feng did not say anything either.


    The Blood Qi in his body began to burn once again.


    His right fist directly smashed onto the longsword in Ji Mingyu¡¯s hand, and an ear-piercing vibration echoed.


    Golden blood splattered.


    In that instant, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was sliced open. Although the longsword did not really cut into his body, the surrounding Sword Qi tore his body apart.


    It was too sharp! It was like nothing could compare with the unyielding and sharp Sword Qi.


    Even Zhou Feng¡¯s body was sliced open in an instant.


    ¡°Die!¡± Ji Mingyu shouted, and his terrifying killing intent was condensed together.


    This was the most direct and brutal killing method.


    There was no mercy at all. All the attacks targeted Zhou Feng¡¯s fatal points.


    Up until now, the two had fought for less than ten seconds.

 Chapter 345 - The Final Blow

    Chapter 345 The Final Blow


    The offensive power of sword cultivators was universally acknowledged to be formidable!


    Generally speaking, all sword cultivators would end the battle in an extremely short period.


    It was very rare for it to drag on because sword cultivators would basically injure others and themselves.


    The terrifying Sword Qi could easily injure themselves.


    Thus, Ji Mingyu attacked wildly from the start.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have been forced into a desperate situation.


    There were a few wounds on his body out of thin air, all of them caused by that strange Sword Qi.


    ¡®My methods are still lacking¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng could not help but sigh in his heart.


    It was impossible to rely on his physical strength to suppress everything completely when facing different enemies. This was a little unrealistic.


    He had to find more offensive methods.


    As for the Invincible Fist he had comprehended, although the three punches were powerful, they were his own creations.


    There were still many flaws in them.


    Zhou Feng felt that if he were not careful when he used the Invincible Fist, he would probably be chopped into several pieces.


    ¡°Clear Wind! Come!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng looked as if nothing had happened, Ji Mingyu swung his sword again.


    All of a sudden, a gust of wind made of countless strands of Sword Qi blew in the surroundings.


    It was silent and didn¡¯t have the slightest bit of power. It was as if a gentle breeze was blowing across one¡¯s face.


    ¡°It¡¯s coming! Clear Wind! Ji Mingyu¡¯s ultimate move!¡±


    ¡°As expected, sword cultivators are all hot-tempered. He used his ultimate move directly!¡±


    ¡°Hiss! Zhou Feng won¡¯t die on the stage, will he?¡±


    1111


    The two sides exchanged blows for a while, and the onlookers finally reacted.


    Then, they immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. Ji Mingyu looked scholarly, but he was a ruthless person.


    was a


    son.


    He immediately started the battle without saying anything and directly revealed his killing move.


    The Clear Wind Sword Technique was a killing move Ji Mingyu had created by combining his own sword principle and divine ability.


    Back then, Ji Mingyu had comprehended the Wind Call Ability and broke through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Although the name of this Wind Call Ability wasn¡¯t eye-catching, it was still considered powerful among the many divine abilities.


    With a single thought, it could gather strong gales.


    It was one of the 36 divine abilities that could summon wind and rain.


    Once, a mighty figure had cultivated this Wind Call Ability, and he could summon an endless amount of strong gales with a single breath and blow away a mountain.


    Moreover, there were many types of wind. Be it the Nine Heavens Squall or the Fallen Soul Wind, they were all extremely dangerous.


    Although Ji Mingyu wasn¡¯t as powerful as a mighty senior figure, he was able to combine the Wind Call Ability with his own Sword Dao.


    In an instant, Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stood on end.


    His body was frantically warning him.


    Zhou Feng wanted to dodge, but there was no place to do so.


    The faint breeze encompassed all the space around him.


    Since he couldn¡¯t dodge, he could only take it head-on!


    He burned even more Blood Qi, and the blazing golden flames engulfed his entire body.


    The surroundings instantly became stuffy, and the rapidly rising temperature made many people sweat profusely.


    At that moment, the longsword tore through his body, followed by the clanging sounds of collision.


    At first, Zhou Feng¡¯s body only had a few red lines, which the extremely minute strands of Sword Qi caused.


    Then, countless red lines began to cover his entire body.


    Large amounts of flesh and blood splattered out.


    It was as if someone had used a small knife the size of a bamboo leaf to slice his body.


    It was as if he had been dismembered!


    ¡°I can even see the bones!¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s not really dead, right?¡±


    Many people could vaguely see Zhou Feng¡¯s bones. Those white jade-like bones were also covered with sword marks.


    This scene was simply terrifying!


    Many people could not help but close their eyes at that cruel scene.


    Faced with this scene, however, Ji Mingyu frowned. The longsword in his hand had no intention of being put down.


    This Clear Wind Sword Technique was indeed powerful. A streak of Sword Qi instantly split into countless tiny strands of Sword Qi.


    It was as silent as a cool breeze blowing across one¡¯s face. If one was not careful, they would be dismembered to death.


    However, this technique also had a heavy backlash. It was probably because Ji Mingyu did not cultivate it to perfection.


    His hand that was holding the sword was also covered with many tiny sword marks.


    ¡®It hurts!¡¯


    Zhou Feng silently used the Longevity Breathing Technique and forcefully used the surging Blood Qi to wrap his entire body.


    Then, he forcefully broke through the countless strands of Sword Qi in front of him.


    ¡®Invincible Fist: Soul Punch!¡¯


    Under such intense pain, Zhou Feng was still extremely calm.


    He forcefully used up a large amount of soul power to unleash the Soul Punch. This should be considered Zhou Feng¡¯s strongest killing move.


    Directly attacking the opponent¡¯s soul was similarly silent and extremely powerful.


    And once he used this move, Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess would be weakened to the extreme.


    But now, he couldn¡¯t lose. He would obtain too many things as long as he defeated this person.


    Moreover, his life was basically not in danger here.


    After all, nobody in Celestial Lake City would be crazy enough to challenge the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s prestige. In the end, even if he couldn¡¯t die, Zhou Feng still had a chance to be reborn.


    Thus, Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was extremely crazy.


    Even though countless strands of Sword Qi slashed his entire body, he still rushed toward Ji Mingyu and punched out.


    In the eyes of other cultivators, he was no longer just a madman.


    He had already gone mad!


    Was there a need to go all out? The qualification to bathe in the immortal lake was not something that other vagabond cultivators could covet.


    Even if he could obtain the qualification to bathe in the immortal lake in the end, the price he had to pay was too heavy!


    ¡®What!?¡¯


    Ji Mingyu seemed to have sensed something as his pupils suddenly constricted.


    Then, he instantly fainted!


    A round jade pendant directly shattered.


    ¡°Soul attack!¡±


    ¡°This kid! He can actually use soul attacks!¡±


    Fairy Qing and Sima Di¡¯s eyes revealed a hint of surprise.


    They seemed to be unable to sit still because Zhou Feng had just displayed a soul attack.


    Even Ji Mingyu¡¯s protective spiritual artifact was shattered with a single strike!


    Such a technique wasn¡¯t something that an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator could possess!


    Even a Divine Ability cultivator couldn¡¯t master such a soul attack technique!


    ¡®How on Earth did this person learn it?¡¯


    A Purple Mansion cultivator using a soul attack? Wasn¡¯t he afraid of placing a burden on his soul?


    One had to know that a Purple Mansion nascent soul¡¯s strength was very ordinary. If one were to use a soul attack forcefully¡­ the result would most likely be an untreatable injury.


    It wasn¡¯t so easy to recover from a soul injury!


    Surprise, fear, and confusion were all focused on Zhou Feng.


    They had thought that Zhou Feng¡¯s previous performance was already astonishing enough, but it never crossed their minds that this kid would have another trick up his sleeve.


    ¡®Not bad!¡¯


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes as he looked at Ji Mingyu, finally letting out a sigh of relief.


    The person in front of him was tough to deal with. He would have been killed instantly if he hadn¡¯t used the Soul Punch.


    Fortunately, he won in the end.


    It was just that the price he had to pay to win was a little tragic.

 Chapter 346 - Passive: Spirit Pet Heart

    Chapter 346 Passive: Spirit Pet Heart


    ¡®It¡¯s that move again?¡¯


    Leng Maner saw this familiar move, and a trace of worry immediately appeared on her face.


    She had seen how powerful the backlash of this move was.


    Still, when Leng Maner thought about Zhou Feng¡¯s cockroach-level life force, she suppressed the worry in her heart.


    At present, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance could be said to be terrible to look at.


    There was not a single part of his skin that was uninjured.


    There were densely packed sword marks, but they were¡­ rapidly disappearing?


    After exiting battle mode, the passive Tenacious Heart was triggered.


    A huge amount of Blood Qi was consumed, and the seemingly horrifying injuries recovered swiftly.


    Soon, Zhou Feng recovered!


    Other than his face being slightly pale, he was no different from before the battle.


    However, in contrast, Zhou Feng¡¯s 90% of massive Blood Qi reserves had been consumed.


    This was equivalent to the recovery of his body, and the amount of Blood Qi wasted was too much.


    Most importantly, he still needed to wear down the remaining Sword Qi in his body continuously.


    The sharp Sword Qi had been preventing his body from recovering, so he had to expend more Blood Qi to wear it down.


    Zhou Feng felt for the first time that his Blood Qi was depleted, something truly unexpected!


    When he had obtained the passive Second Heart, he had felt that he could never use up all his Blood Qi.


    However, this was only secondary. To Zhou Feng, the most important thing was his soul.


    The Soul Punch had caused great damage to Zhou Feng¡¯s soul.


    Although his soul was abnormally powerful, he still felt waves of stinging pain.


    In order to recover the damage to his soul, he had to kill a large number of enemies for his passive Soul Harvesting to aid him.


    ¡®Perfect! After bathing in the immortal lake, I¡¯ll go out with Leng Maner to earn Spirit Stones. By then, I should be able to collect several souls!¡¯


    Zhou Feng endured the sharp pain in his soul and slowly straightened his back. Then, he glanced around.


    His posture seemed to be asking whether anyone else wanted to challenge him.


    ¡°What kind of innate ability is this? How can it be so abnormal?¡±


    ¡°His injuries recovered so quickly?¡±


    ¡°Although he looks a little weak, he doesn¡¯t seem to be affected much!¡±


    Looking at the expressionless Zhou Feng, no one dared to go on the stage anymore.


    In the eyes of many cultivators, Zhou Feng was a lunatic.


    It was just a spot for one to bathe in the immortal lake. There was no need for him to do so.


    Judging from Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude, he would definitely not hold back if anyone challenged him.


    They were certain he would use his soul attack again.


    One had to know that soul attacks were formless and shadowless, and no one knew when the other party would use them.


    A single mistake was all Zhou Feng needed to use the soul attack and protect this spot.


    Zhou Feng had paid such a huge price in the eyes of others. This chance to bathe in the immortal lake was not worth this kind of price.


    Although this immortal lake was mystical, it would not be worth it if the price was to damage one¡¯s soul.


    This immortal lake didn¡¯t have the effect of recovering one¡¯s soul¡¯s injuries.


    The damage to one¡¯s soul also meant that one would have less time to comprehend divine abilities.


    In the end, bathing in the immortal lake was only for the sake of breaking through.


    Zhou Feng was definitely at a disadvantage in his current state.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think so. This was because he had experienced this kind of injury before.


    As long as he had time, he would be able to recover fully. He didn¡¯t need to worry about anything else.


    On the contrary, after defeating Ji Mingyu, the progress bar on the skill panel was once again full, meaning he could draw a new passive skill.


    There was also the Whale King Musk that Jiang Yi had promised him. If nothing went wrong, he would get it.


    Moreover, he could bathe in the immortal lake. In Zhou Feng¡¯s opinion, this wasn¡¯t a loss, no matter what.


    Seeing that no one was willing to challenge him, Zhou Feng slowly walked down from the cloud platform.


    The Celestial Lake Conference was gradually drawing to a close.


    Many geniuses had appeared, and they had seen many divine abilities.


    The most dazzling of them all was Zhou Feng.


    Even the holy lands¡¯ disciples were unable to overshadow Zhou Feng¡¯s brilliance.


    He was a Purple Mansion cultivator who had continuously defeated powerful enemies and even had the ability to use soul attacks.


    Although it seemed as if he was going to die prematurely, nobody doubted his battle achievements.


    Many factions and sects began to stir, and the three great holy lands also began to take action.


    Waves of undercurrents began to surge.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t give a damn about it, however. He only cared about what the new passive skill would be.


    Zhou Feng told Leng Maner where he lived in Celestial Lake City because he was going to bathe in the immortal lake and even gave her a key, asking her to stay at his place for a while and take care of Big Yellow.


    As for him, he would return after bathing in the immortal lake.


    Of course, before bathing in the immortal lake, Zhou Feng chose to draw a new passive skill now that his progress bar was full.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡± ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    He didn¡¯t know how many times he had experienced this process, but he wasn¡¯t tired at all.


    Zhou Feng even thought that it would be great if he could repeat this process every day.


    Spirit Pet Heart: You and your spirit pet will be more in sync. At the same time, your spirit pet can inherit 1% of all your attributes. (Limit: 1)


    When Zhou Feng saw this new passive skill, he was utterly dumbfounded. What was this? Inherit all his attributes?


    ¡®In other words, the stronger I am, the stronger Big Yellow will become!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were a little dull. He did not expect such a passive skill existed.


    Could this be considered an enlightenment-type passive skill?


    Big Yellow didn¡¯t even need to cultivate with this passive skill. As long as Zhou Feng continued to break through, Big Yellow would be able to inherit 1% of all attributes.


    What did this ¡®all attributes¡¯ mean? The so-called attributes were all of Zhou Feng¡¯s powers.


    For example, blood power, soul power, spiritual power, and so on. Big Yellow would be able to inherit all of them.


    This was an all-rounded improvement for Big Yellow.


    And now, Zhou Feng could vaguely sense Big Yellow¡¯s position, state, and thoughts.


    ¡®Big Yellow?¡¯ Zhou Feng subconsciously shouted in his heart.


    Big Yellow, who was far away, instantly pricked up its ears.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow¡¯s eyes were filled with confusion.


    ¡®What was going on?


    ¡®I clearly heard my master¡¯s voice just now, but why am I unable to lock on his odor?


    ¡®Could it be that I¡¯m hallucinating? Am I missing my master too much?¡¯


    Zhou Feng could faintly sense the doubts in Big Yellow¡¯s heart.


    Big Yellow could not detect his thoughts.


    This telepathic connection was one-sided.


    ¡®Too strong! Big Yellow can instantly become my helper with this passive skill!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up!

 Chapter 347 - Big Yellows Transformation

    Chapter 347 Big Yellow¡¯s Transformation


    The passive Spirit Pet Heart instantly gave Zhou Feng an additional helping hand.


    Moreover, this helping hand could also grow as his strength continued to improve.


    This was very good! At least he would not be alone in the future.


    After experiencing so many things, Zhou Feng had already understood. There were many times when it was difficult to accomplish many things by himself.


    However, he did not intend to join a force because he would only feel very constrained.


    Now that he had obtained the passive Spirit Pet Heart, he would definitely have a chance to obtain a similar passive skill in the future.


    When that time came, he might be able to form an army of spirit pets.


    Spirit beasts were much simpler than humans, and their intelligence and comprehension abilities were not necessarily bad.


    As a spirit pet¡¯s cultivation increased, its intelligence would also increase correspondingly.


    ¡®It can also inherit manually. Not bad!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the notification on the skill panel, and his heart immediately moved.


    He chose Big Yellow as the target to inherit his attributes.


    Big Yellow immediately felt a burning aura surging out from the depths of its body.


    The first thing Big Yellow inherited was Zhou Feng¡¯s vigorous Blood Qi.


    Although 1% sounded very little, given Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi reserves, even 1% was not a small amount.


    Not to mention that as a Mountain Spirit Hound, Big Yellow¡¯s Blood Qi itself was not outstanding.


    The turbulent Blood Qi began to baptize Big Yellow¡¯s entire body.


    ¡°Awoo!¡±


    What followed was intense pain due to the volume of the Blood Qi.


    Soon, Big Yellow¡¯s body began to transform.


    ¡°Big Yellow, bear with it! It¡¯s okay!¡±


    When Zhou Feng sensed Big Yellow¡¯s feelings, he immediately comforted him through their spiritual connection.


    When Big Yellow heard Zhou Feng¡¯s voice again, he also became more energetic.


    After the Blood Qi inheritance, spiritual power, soul power, recovery power, defense power, and so on, followed.


    This was an all-rounded inheritance.


    Big Yellow used this opportunity to enter the adult stage instantly.


    Previously, Big Yellow could be considered a cub. It hadn¡¯t matured at all.


    However, after inheriting 1% of Zhou Feng¡¯s attributes, the entire hound immediately grew at high speed. It had undergone a fur change, teeth removal, and so on.


    Its strength had also broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    ¡°Woof?¡±


    After the pain ended, Big Yellow tentatively let out a cry.


    Then, it felt an endless amount of power surge toward it.


    Big Yellow¡¯s body had become huge, almost two meters tall.


    From afar, it looked like a small mountain filled with a sense of oppression.


    Other than that, its appearance had also undergone a huge change


    Originally, Big Yellow had a gentle appearance.


    But after this transformation, its appearance becomes extremely fierce.


    Its sharp fangs would occasionally flash with a cold light.


    It did not look like a hound at all, but a wolf, a huge wolf!


    For some unknown reason, Big Yellow¡¯s fur had turned golden yellow, the kind that shone with a bright golden color.


    Under the illumination of the sun, the reflected light was even dazzling.


    ¡°Woof?¡±


    Big Yellow barked a few times. As he looked at his surroundings, there was actually a trace of pondering emotion in his eyes.


    That¡¯s right! Other than the changes in his body, Big Yellow¡¯s intelligence had also been greatly improved.


    In the past, Big Yellow would definitely not think on his own. He was as simple as a child.


    Now, Big Yellow was even starting to think about why it had become like this.


    If this continued, he might be able to open its mouth and speak.


    All of this had to be attributed to Zhou Feng¡¯s enormous soul power.


    Compared to the massive amount of Blood Qi, the total amount of his soul power was also not small.


    With the passive Soul Harvesting, Zhou Feng had a chance to collect a trace of soul power, or even a whole soul, every time he killed an enemy.


    After accumulating for such a long time, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was alarmingly powerful. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to execute a move like the Soul Punch.


    ¡°Alright! Big Yellow, you can stay at home. A guest will arrive later, so take good care of her.¡±


    After sensing Big Yellow¡¯s strong life force, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t bother about him anymore. He only gave a simple order and then cut off the spiritual connection.


    ¡°Woof?¡±


    ¡®Guest? Take care of her?¡¯


    Big Yellow was a little confused for a moment as he didn¡¯t understand what this meant.


    But he knew that a two-legged beast like his master would be coming here later.


    Looking at the chaotic situation around it, Big Yellow immediately started to clean up.


    Zhou Feng was preparing to enter the immortal lake.


    Because the opening time of the immortal lake was very short, Zhou Feng was already waiting in advance.


    Soon, the rest of the people who would bathe in the immortal lake also arrived.


    Looking at Zhou Feng, who had been waiting here for a long time, the people who arrived later looked at Zhou Feng with a strange look in their eyes.


    No one knew what they were thinking.


    ¡°Jiang Yi!¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t control what others thought.


    However, he didn¡¯t forget what Jiang Yi had promised him.


    Therefore, when Jiang Yi appeared, he called him Jiang Yi directly.


    In an instant, a trace of surprise appeared on the others¡¯ faces.


    ¡°He¡¯s really not polite! Why are they so close?¡±


    ¡°When did Young Master Jiang make such a friend?¡±


    ¡°The Jade Sword Holy Land has been doing a lot of things during this period.¡±


    111


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that his casual words caused the other people¡¯s imaginations to run wild.


    This was because the Jade Sword Holy Land was in the limelight for this Celestial Lake Conference.


    Jiang Yi, another Jade Sword disciple, and Zhou Feng, who was considered to be on the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s side, took three of the five spots for bathing in the immortal lake.


    Such a situation was extremely rare. Outsiders didn¡¯t know the five spots were related to the allocation of resources between the holy lands.


    ¡°I¡¯m here!¡±


    Jiang Yi didn¡¯t care much when Zhou Feng called his name directly.


    On the contrary, Jiang Yi was even more confident that Zhou Feng was the person that the Great Elder had predicted.


    The fated person who could help him break through the bottleneck.


    ¡°Whale King Musk!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s words were concise and to the point, directly expressing his thoughts. ¡°Of course! This is what I promised before!¡±


    Jiang Yi wouldn¡¯t go back on his word.


    Although the Whale King Musk was precious, it was nothing to a force like the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    It was just a little hard to find.


    ¡°There¡¯s a fist-sized Whale King Musk in here. Although it¡¯s not too precious, it¡¯s a little hard to find. There¡¯s only so much for now.¡±


    Jiang Yi took out a small wooden box. He seemed to be saying that he could still find more of this thing.


    Zhou Feng understood Jiang Yi¡¯s hidden meaning


    However, he didn¡¯t show any expression on his face. He just placed the wooden box into his storage ring.


    He remained silent and just stood quietly at the side.


    For Zhou Feng, a person like Jiang Yi was dangerous. He didn¡¯t believe that someone would give so many benefits to a person for no reason.


    There must be more to it.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng remained cold and distant.


    It was better to have fewer friends.

 Chapter 348 - Human Emperor Physique

    Chapter 348 Human Emperor Physique


    Fairy Qing Yao looked at Zhou Feng and instantly understood.


    Jiang Yi and Zhou Feng didn¡¯t seem to be as close as they thought.


    But there was no time for them to think too much because the entrance to the immortal lake had already opened!


    As the foundation of Celestial Lake City, what was strange was that there was no one guarding it.


    However, there was always a dense fog blocking the center of the immortal lake.


    Only when the immortal lake opened would the fog slowly disperse.


    Speaking of which, this was one of the few top-grade resources that outsiders could enjoy.


    There wasn¡¯t only one top-grade spirit land like the immortal lake.


    However, those spirit lands were basically monopolized by the three great holy lands.


    The other factions and vagabond cultivators basically couldn¡¯t enjoy it.


    These top-grade spirit lands were basically exclusive to the disciples of the holy lands.


    The immortal lake was the only spirit land an outsider could enjoy its benefits. After all, this wasn¡¯t decided internally. Nonetheless, the disciples of the holy lands had been occupying the spots for bathing in the immortal lake in previous years. Only this year did a dark horse like Zhou Feng appear. He actually defeated two disciples of the holy land in a row, forcefully obtaining the spot to bathe in the immortal lake.


    Actually, in Jiang Yi¡¯s heart, he did not trust Zhou Feng. It was only because of the Great Elder¡¯s divination that he chose to bet on him.


    The dense fog slowly dispersed, and a thread of water vapor began to blow against Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    This is Spiritual Qi?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt an unprecedented amount of Spiritual Qi.


    This was said to be an immortal lake, but it was comparable to a big pool. And the lake water was actually formed from Spiritual Qi?


    The Spiritual Qi was so dense that it could not be dispersed, and under the pressure, it formed droplets of Spiritual Qi water.


    Just by getting close, all the pores on the body opened.


    ¡°Remember! You only have 15 minutes!¡±


    While everyone was still in a daze, an aged voice entered their ears.


    When Zhou Feng heard this, he took the lead and instantly jumped into the immortal lake.


    The others were not as anxious as he was. Instead, they calmly stepped into the immortal lake.


    ¡®So comfortable!


    Just as he stepped into the immortal lake, Zhou Feng felt a burst of power, and his soul, which had been severely damaged, also felt much better.


    There was no need for him to take the initiative to absorb it.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi began to drill into his body without any regard for his life.


    The degree of craziness even made Zhou Feng feel waves of stinging pain.


    The most important function of this immortal lake was to improve one¡¯s physique and improve one¡¯s aptitude. The lower one¡¯s aptitude was, the better the effect would be.


    Apart from Zhou Feng, everyone present had first-class aptitudes, so bathing in the immortal lake was mainly to improve their physique.


    Don¡¯t think it was easy to improve one¡¯s physique. Although things like physique would improve along with one¡¯s cultivation base, their physique must be strong enough if they wanted to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    The Dragon Transformation realm was an all-rounded transformation of the physical body. It was not an exaggeration to say that this was the process of a species transforming into another species.


    The stronger the physique, the greater the chance of breaking through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    However, there was a limit to improving one¡¯s physique by only relying on cultivation.


    Therefore, one needed to rely on the assistance of a top-tier spirit land like the immortal lake.


    ¡®Awesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng threw caution to the wind and crazily absorbed the Spiritual Qi in the immortal lake.


    His low aptitude was constantly improved, and his physique was also slightly improved.


    The terrifying absorption speed even formed a dragon that absorbed water.


    The surrounding water kept gathering toward him.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°This person¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions immediately attracted the attention of Jiang Yi and the others.


    Was this person crazy? He actually dared to absorb the water in the immortal lake like this?


    One had to know that the water in the immortal lake was the condensed form of pure Spiritual Qi.


    This pure Spiritual Qi was even a type of poison to mortals.


    Even a cultivator would find it hard to resist the corrosion. Zhou Feng was playing with fire by doing this.


    ¡®Interesting. This person¡¯s aptitude is really bad. How did he cultivate to this level!?¡¯


    A Jade Sword Elder observed Zhou Feng from outside the immortal lake.


    He seemed to be a little surprised.


    In the eyes of this Jade Sword Elder, Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude could be said to be unbearable.


    Yet, Zhou Feng had forcefully cultivated to such a level.


    What kind of talent was this?


    ¡®This person even defeated two holy land disciples to obtain a spot to bathe in the immortal lake¡­ What a good seedling!¡¯


    The Jade Sword Elder loved talented people, but he needed to investigate Zhou Feng¡¯s background before trying to recruit him.


    In fact, after Zhou Feng won the spot to bathe in the immortal lake, many forces had already begun to investigate Zhou Feng¡¯s background and experiences.


    It was impossible for such a character not to have left any traces before.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng was also very clear.


    He was not afraid of others investigating him because he was very confident in his ability to conceal himself.


    It would be easy to change to a new identity with the Longevity Breathing Technique and the passive Bloodline Simulation.


    It was not that easy for an ordinary person to investigate his background.


    Well, that was unless some bigshot had nothing better to do and insisted on figuring out his background.


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that the passive Tenacious Heart had been triggered.


    The Spiritual Qi in the immortal lake was potent, and his whole body was covered in wounds in almost an instant.


    Fortunately, he had the passive Tenacious Heart.


    These wounds could recover quickly, which supported him to constantly absorb the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings to improve his aptitude.


    ¡°He¡¯s fine? He¡¯s actually fine?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This person has that kind of strange recovery ability! No wonder he¡¯s so unscrupulous!¡± ¡°No! We can¡¯t fall behind!¡±


    When the others looked at Zhou Feng, who had been absorbing the Spiritual Qi but was surprisingly fine, they instantly thought of his strange recovery ability.


    Zhou Feng could resist the erosion of the Spiritual Qi on his body with that strange recovery ability.


    They looked at Zhou Feng absorbing the Spiritual Qi in the immortal lake and suddenly felt that they were at a disadvantage.


    They closed their eyes and used the lake water to improve their physiques.


    15 minutes passed quickly!


    ¡°Time¡¯s up!¡±


    The old voice sounded again.


    Before Zhou Feng noticed it, he was kicked out of the immortal lake.


    In the blink of an eye, he arrived outside the immortal lake. At this time, the immortal lake was once again shrouded in thick fog.


    This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face betrayed that he still wanted more.


    Bathing in the immortal lake was really too


    great!


    All the shortcomings of his body were almost solved.


    At the same time, he had changed his aptitude and bones from the most fundamental level. He only felt that his physical body had once again risen to another level.


    The Human Emperor Blood in his body had become even golden, and his bones seemed to have been dyed with a golden color.


    Zhou Feng guessed that he had awakened the Human Emperor Physique.


    That¡¯s right!


    He guessed that his physical body had transformed from a mortal body to that of a Human Emperor.


    This feeling was as if his entire body had opened up eight extraordinary meridians, and it was indescribably comfortable.


    ¡®Perfect!¡¯


    Zhou Feng tried to circulate the Emperor Coiling Scripture, and he could do it with more ease than before.


    The circulation of the Emperor Coiling Scripture did not have the least bit of obstruction, and the control of his Blood Qi became more comfortable. Even the Longevity Breathing Technique became more natural.


    The Invincible Avatar behind him actually slowly emerged as he circulated the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    Undoubtedly, he had received great benefits in this bath in the immortal lake.

 Chapter 349 - The Whale King Musks Effects

    Chapter 349 The Whale King Musk¡¯s Effects


    After bathing in the immortal lake, Zhou Feng had no intention of staying here any longer. He chose to leave at the first moment.


    Initially, Jiang Yi wanted to have a chat with Zhou Feng. After all, Jiang Yi¡¯s breakthrough opportunity depended on Zhou Feng.


    The others also wanted to get to know Zhou Feng


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy fighting style and distant personality somewhat deducted points, his strength was the real deal.


    Even if he couldn¡¯t be called a prodigy, he could still be considered a freak.


    After bathing in the immortal lake, his strength had risen to another level.


    Naturally, one had to get acquainted with such a character.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng completely ignored them. He didn¡¯t want to have too many interactions with these people.


    He still liked to cultivate alone.


    Although doing so would result in losing a lot of opportunities, Zhou Feng did not care. The skill panel was his greatest opportunity.


    Soon, Zhou Feng returned to his residence, and he was shocked by the scene before him.


    ¡®Big Yellow? This is Big Yellow!?


    He saw a huge wolf with its four legs facing the sky as Leng Maner was caressing him.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    After sensing his aura, Big Yellow immediately jumped up, his face full of excitement.


    Big Yellow directly pounced like a truck crashing into Zhou Feng.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was strong enough, or else he would have really been knocked away by Big Yellow.


    He did not expect that Big Yellow¡¯s transformation would be so great.


    Previously, Big Yellow had only been as tall as his knees!


    Now, it was even taller than him. It had transformed from a spirit pet into a mount.


    In addition, Big Yellow¡¯s appearance was ferocious, and its golden fur was extremely supple.


    ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect that you would actually have a Spirit General pet.¡±


    Leng Maner¡¯s voice carried a hint of sourness in it.


    One had to know that in order to cultivate, Leng Maner had to bear with the pain and give up on her Snow Condor.


    Yet, Zhou Feng had a Spirit General pet out of nowhere.


    This made Leng Maner think of her Snow Condor.


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡±


    After the initial shock, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body became calm.


    Although Big Yellow¡¯s transformation was a little astonishing, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation was more important.


    He couldn¡¯t wait to try out the effects of the Whale King Musk. This was related to his breakthrough to the Divine Ability realm.


    Also, the Celestial Lake Conference was over. Next was the Celestial Lake Auction.


    It was only two days away from the auction.


    Zhou Feng wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to cooperate with Leng Maner and earn some Spirit Stones first.


    Then, he would participate in the auction.


    Time was very tight.


    ¡°I need to enter seclusion. Why don¡¯t you go and see if there are any suitable missions? The auction will be held in two days.¡±


    Zhou Feng communicated with Leng Maner with the most concise words.


    ¡°Sure.¡±


    Leng Maner was stunned for a moment before she agreed.


    ¡®As expected, Zhou Feng hasn¡¯t changed at all. Only I can accept such a strange temper.¡¯


    Leng Maner, who was familiar with Zhou Feng¡¯s personality, didn¡¯t feel that she was being ordered around.


    Zhou Feng had been like this since a long time ago.


    Compared to those people with truly strange personalities, Zhou Feng¡¯s personality was already considered good.


    Thus, Leng Maner left this place and prepared to go to the City Lord Manor to see if there were any suitable missions.


    As for Zhou Feng, he entered the isolation room.


    All the houses in Celestial Lake City had isolation rooms, and only the isolation rooms had sufficient Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®Let¡¯s waste it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng took out the Whale King Musk, broke a little piece, which he then lightly lit. This piece of Whale King Musk was in state where it seemed to burn but not burn.


    The Whale King Musk wasn¡¯t supposed to be used in this way.


    The correct usage of the Whale King Musk was to mix it with other spiritual objects and turn it into an incense stick for use.


    There was even a specialized profession for incense making, which specialized in making some special spiritual fragrances for cultivation.


    Among them, how to make spiritual fragrances had already been recorded on the stone tablets back in the Dragon Palace¡¯s mystic realm.


    It was just that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the materials on hand, so he could only make do with it for now.


    The Whale King Musk slowly emitted a faint fragrance.


    This fragrance was not strong. Instead, it was a little faint, but it made people very relaxed.


    Zhou Feng did not even need to take the initiative. His entire person entered the state of soul travel into the great void.


    He once again arrived in a starry sky in a


    daze.


    There were three shining stars above his head.


    Zhou Feng was currently in a special state where he had no self, nothing, and his body and mind were at peace.


    He seemed to hear the voice of the Great Dao. The voice of the Great Dao was a little like the chanting voices of monks and the singing of cicadas, but also a little like the voice of sacrifice in ancient times.


    There was even a strange muttering sound that traveled through time and space.


    The Great Void Primordial Art circulated in his heart, and his physical body also had some sort of reaction. It began to emit traces of waste gas.


    This waste gas was usually accumulated in the most hidden parts of his physical body. This was the result of using the Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate.


    Zhou Feng did not even notice that using the Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate would leave such hidden dangers in his body.


    However, it was being continuously expelled.


    At the same time, in an unknown dimension, strands of gray and hazy Great Void Primordial Qi were being absorbed into his body.


    Success!


    With the help of the Whale King Musk, he actually succeeded in introducing a strand Great Void Primordial Qi.


    This meant that he had finally found a way, and he would not be as stagnant as before.


    As long as he persisted in traveling through the great void, he believed that it would not be long before he would be able to comprehend this Great Void Primordial Art.


    Just as he was gradually entering a good state, this special state instantly disappeared.


    In an instant, he returned to the state of traveling through the great void, and his entire body seemed to be frozen.


    There was no way to listen to the voice of the Great Dao.


    ¡°It¡¯s gone! How could it be used up so quickly?¡±


    Zhou Feng opened his eyes and looked at the pile of ashes in front of him.


    He instantly understood it was because the piece of Whale King Musk had been used up. That was why he had exited that special state.


    It did not seem to be enough!


    Based on the rate at which the piece of Whale King Musk was used up, if Zhou Feng wanted to comprehend the Great Void Primordial Art and use it to break through to the Divine Ability realm, this amount of Whale King Musk would definitely not be enough.


    It seemed like he still needed to make it into a spirit incense to burn. Otherwise, it would not be enough to support his breakthrough to the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡°It¡¯s still Spirit Stones! Looks like I need to create a few industries to do it!¡±


    It could be predicted that if he wanted to continue breaking through in the following realms, he would need all sorts of cultivation resources.


    The importance of Spirit Stones was self-evident.


    Therefore, if he wanted to have a smoother path of cultivation in the future, he would need to set up a few businesses to earn Spirit Stones.


    But what could he do to obtain a stable source of Spirit Stones?


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that he had to start with his passive skills.


    Compared to other cultivators, his biggest advantage was his skill panel, so he had to amplify that advantage.

 Chapter 350 - The Passive Fishermans Usefulness!

    Chapter 350 The Passive Fisherman¡¯s Usefulness!


    Zhou Feng looked at his various passive skills.


    Among his many passive skills, the vast majority were related to combat. Then, he eliminated some useless passive skills.


    There were not many passive skills left that could help him earn Spirit Stones.


    Skill Proficiency: Your subclass skill success rate increases by 15%, but this passive skill cannot be used beyond your level.


    Subclasses include: Pill Master, Formation Master, Beast Tamer, and so on.


    Fisherman: Your fishing rate will increase by 50%, and you will have a very small chance of catching a treasure.


    Note: The treasure can be spiritual artifacts, pills, cultivation techniques, or even opportunities!


    The above-mentioned passive skills were the ones Zhou Feng believed would help him earn Spirit Stones.


    Skill Proficiency was a god-tier passive skill, but his subclass, Pill Master, was not something he could rely on. It would be hard for him to compete with the other professional Pill Masters in Celestial Lake City.


    Those Pill Masters¡¯ legacies were passed down from generation to generation. Although each Pill Master might only know a few pill formulas, they were united and relied solely on their circle.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think that he would be able to enter these Pill Masters¡¯ circle.


    In any case, pill refinement was out of the question!


    On the other hand, this passive skill should be a bonus for incense-making.


    Few people studied incense-making, so he could choose to develop it as a direction In the future.


    If the passive Skill Proficiency was eliminated, the passive Fisherman would be left.


    That¡¯s right!


    Zhou Feng felt that if he really wanted to earn Spirit Stones steadily, he should depend on the passive Fisherman.


    He would not fish for ordinary fish but for spirit fish and aquatic creatures.


    Zhou Feng understood that in this world, there were professional fishermen. They specialized in fishing all kinds of spirit fish to live.


    There was a vast lake, the Celestial Lake, near Celestial Lake City. The city was named like this because of Celestial Lake.


    The Celestial Lake was not only huge, but the depth of the water was also bottomless.


    There were countless spirit fish and aquatic creatures hidden in it, and many cultivators often gathered there.


    The purpose was to capture the aquatic creatures in the lake and exchange them for Spirit Stones. There were even some quests in the City Lord Manor that were related to the Celestial Lake.


    The City Lord Manor was looking for a spirit fish called the Silvermoon Fish, if he remembered correctly.


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the clearer his thoughts became.


    ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect the passive Fisherman to be useful!¡±


    Relying on the 50% increase in the passive skill¡¯s hook rate, he should be able to earn a lot of Spirit Stones.


    However, this was just his imagination.


    Whether he could successfully earn Spirit Stones in the end, he still needed to put it into practice.


    Before that, he would work together with Leng Maner to earn some Spirit Stones first.


    Then, he would participate in the auction!


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng was ready to act immediately.


    ¡°Big Yellow, get ready to set off.¡±


    Upon hearing his shout, Big Yellow¡¯s ears instantly stood up.


    He looked extremely excited because Zhou Feng would bring him along with him this time.


    Previously, Big Yellow¡¯s strength was insufficient, so it was very easy for him to become a burden.


    Thus, when Zhou Feng was carrying out a mission, he would usually store Big Yellow in his spiritual pet bag, or he might as well not bring him along This made Big Yellow extremely depressed.


    Now that Big Yellow¡¯s strength had finally increased, he could fight alongside Zhou Feng.


    And perhaps, Big Yellow would play a crucial role.


    After breaking through to the Spirit General rank, Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell was even more acute. In terms of chasing after enemies, it was definitely going to be Zhou Feng¡¯s match.


    ¡°Oh right! Big Yellow, can you shrink?¡±


    The current Big Yellow was mighty enough, but he was too eye-catching. It would be great if he could shrink a little.


    Zhou Feng had only asked casually, but he didn¡¯t expect that Big Yellow¡¯s body would begin to shrink.


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s astonished gaze, Big Yellow¡¯s body size became as tall as Zhou Feng¡¯s waist.


    This should be Big Yellow¡¯s limit.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    Although Big Yellow still looked very conspicuous, it was at least better than before.


    Without hesitation, Zhou Feng brought Big Yellow to the City Lord Manor, preparing to meet up with Leng Maner.


    At the same time, the people of the Jade Sword Holy Land put most of their attention into the auction this time.


    Compared to investigating an insignificant person like Zhou Feng, more forces were actually paying attention to the auction this time.


    It was not a simple one, after all. Some items even attracted many Dragon Transformation powerhouses to come.


    In order to ensure safety, the Jade Sword Holy Land would dispatch more disciples.


    Although Celestial Lake City had a spirit-locking formation, this formation could not deter some Dragon Transformation monsters.


    Once a few Dragon Transformation powerhouses made a move together, it would not be impossible to render this spirit-locking formation useless.


    As the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s representative, Jiang Yi was also very busy communicating with the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s subordinate forces.


    Therefore, he didn¡¯t have the energy to pay attention to what Zhou Feng was doing for the time being.


    ¡°What is the grand finale item of this auction? It can attract so many Dragon Transformation experts?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know! But according to reliable sources, there are definitely spiritual items that can help one reach the realm after the Dragon Transformation realm!¡±


    ¡°What? Spiritual items that can help one break through past the Dragon Transformation Realm!?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Otherwise, it wouldn¡¯t have attracted so many Dragon Transformation experts! I heard that there are several dao artifacts this time!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s even an immortal scripture!¡±


    At this time, many people in the Celestial Lake City were discussing the items of this auction.


    All kinds of exaggerated comments were made, which directly attracted most of the cultivators to stop.


    Just the consumption of these foreign cultivators was already enough to make the Celestial Lake City a big profit.


    They received Spirit Stones until their hands went soft.


    As for Zhou Feng, he and Leng Maner were busy earning Spirit Stones.


    Because Zhou Feng was strong enough, Big Yellow also displayed astonishing searching ability.


    In addition to Leng Maner¡¯s strange Gus, they completed many of the City Lord Manor¡¯s missions.


    The missions of hunting down demonic beasts, evil cultivators, and picking spiritual items were all very simple for Zhou Feng.


    Thus, he accumulated Spirit Stones.


    However, it was not much. After much hard work, he had obtained a few hundred thousand Spirit Stones.


    There were also some contribution points from the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    This was because some missions rewarded contribution points, but to Zhou Feng, these contribution points were completely useless.


    These contribution points could not be exchanged for the things he needed.


    Moreover, contribution points couldn¡¯t be exchanged for Spirit Stones, yet Spirit Stones could be exchanged for contribution points.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng discussed with Leng Maner, and they stopped completing Celestial Lake City¡¯s missions.


    ¡°Do you want to participate in the auction tomorrow?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Leng Maner, who was wearing a veil, and a faint fragrance seeped into his nostrils.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go together.¡±


    Leng Maner agreed without hesitation.


    This period of time with Zhou Feng was the most relaxing time for her.


    She didn¡¯t need to be so cautious. No matter what kind of danger awaited them, Zhou Feng would always be the first to notice it.


    And the first thing she did was escape. She didn¡¯t need to observe her surroundings anymore carefully.


    However, Leng Maner had a feeling that the two of them wouldn¡¯t be together for too long. Taking advantage of this period, Leng Maner planned to continue to relax.


    ¡°Alright!¡± Zhou Feng simply replied with one word.


    After that, his entire person entered a state of silence once again.

 Chapter 351 - Inner Charm Constitution

    Chapter 351 Inner Charm Constitution


    After a long preparation period, the Celestial Lake Auction had already attracted the attention of numerous cultivators.


    Even not long ago, Zhou Feng¡¯s performance had been very eye-catching.


    However, at this time, not many people remembered him. After all, Zhou Feng was only a decent vagabond cultivator.


    Compared to the auction with all kinds of spiritual items, a small figure like Zhou Feng was completely not worth mentioning.


    Also, because of this, Zhou Feng did not face any obstacles or trouble.


    He successfully entered the auction with Leng Maner.


    This auction was quite high-end, and they still needed tokens.


    Zhou Feng did have a token, the one that Jiang Yi had provided previously.


    As for Leng Maner, he did not know where she had gotten one either.


    However, they did not have any fate with the private rooms on the second floor, so they could only stay in the hall on the first floor.


    As he had never participated in such an auction before, Zhou Feng was a little curious.


    The auction venue was almost the same as it was in his previous life. There was no difference.


    It was just that a formation was protecting the high platform in the middle.


    Moreover, there was quite a big gap between the seats.


    When Zhou Feng entered, many people were already sitting in the front row.


    ¡°Let¡¯s sit in the middle.¡±


    He chose the middle seats instead of the corner.


    He felt that the middle seats were more easily overlooked than the cramped corner.


    It would be easier to be noticed if one deliberately sat in the corner. After all, almost no one would choose such a narrow view of the corner unless necessary.


    Zhou Feng was now well-versed in the art of keeping a low profile.


    Someone that genuinely wanted to keep a low profile should not be deliberately hiding in a corner. They must blend in with the crowd and be a mediocre person.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Leng Maner naturally did not have any objections. Anyway, she had been listening to Zhou Feng¡¯s arrangements from the beginning.


    This feeling of not needing to waste energy and feeling comfortable was extremely enjoyable in Leng Maner¡¯s heart.


    ¡°Oh right, what are you here for?¡±


    The two of them sat down. Zhou Feng was a little bored, so he asked about Leng Maner¡¯s purpose for coming to the auction this time.


    Originally, his purpose was to obtain the Whale King Musk, but Jiang Yi had already handed it to him.


    Therefore, for Zhou Feng, there was no purpose for this auction.


    After all, he did not have many Spirit Stones. At most, he would only be auctioning some materials to make spirit incense.


    As for spiritual and rare items, he should not have a chance.


    ¡°I still need two more spiritual items for my Vital Gu to break through to the Divine Ability realm. One is the Ice Glass Flower¡­¡±


    Regarding Zhou Feng¡¯s question, Leng Maner thought about it and did not hide anything.


    Now, Leng Maner¡¯s Vital Gu was not far from complete transformation.


    As long as she obtained the two spiritual items, her Vital Gu would transform.


    One of them was the Ice Glass Flower. This flower was very rare and only grew in the various secret realms.


    Because this flower needed dense Ice Spirit Qi to promote its growth, only the various secret realms had such an abundance of Ice Spirit Qi.


    There was not enough Ice Spirit Qi for the Ice Glass Flower to grow in the wild.


    In this auction, a large portion of the spiritual items was produced from the secret realms of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Thus, the Leng Maner wanted to try her luck here.


    ¡°The second one is the Mystic Crystal Ice Tear. But this thing probably won¡¯t be found here in the Jade Sword Holy Land.¡±


    Leng Maner patiently explained to Zhou Feng.


    This Mystic Crystal Ice Tear was a type of mineral and an excellent material for refining artifacts and forging swords.


    Such a refining material would almost never be circulated outside. After all, the Jade Sword Holy Land had countless disciples forging swords.


    After this auction ended, Leng Maner planned to head to other holy lands to try her luck.


    She would head to the Western Region if it really didn¡¯t work out. She had heard there were countless snowy mountains in the Western Region, and there might be Mystic Crystal Ice Tears there.


    ¡°The Western Region? I will probably choose to go to the Eastern Land in the future.¡±


    After breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, Zhou Feng would probably head to the Eastern Land, compared to the Central Plains.


    The Eastern Land was also extremely prosperous. There were countless prodigies there, as well as numerous ancient sects.


    Most importantly, there were many mystic realms left behind by the Human Emperors.


    Zhou Feng had two Human Emperor Scriptures, so he naturally wanted to continue down this path.


    Of course, he would not only cultivate these two Human Emperor Scriptures.


    He planned to collect more Human Emperor Scriptures and synthesize them to create his own cultivation method.


    Although this sounded like a fantasy, Zhou Feng had the skill panel. From time to time, he would be able to obtain a heaven-defying passive skill.


    Therefore, he did not feel that he was dreaming. The best way out for him was to create his own cultivation method.


    As a vagabond cultivator, it was essential for him to stand out and create his own cultivation method.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    After hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s words, Leng Maner immediately fell silent.


    Obviously, they would have to part ways to pursue their respective cultivation path.


    Nonetheless, this was not surprising.


    ¡°It¡¯s a pity.¡±


    Zhou Feng was silent for a while before he blurted out three words.


    When Leng Maner heard the words ¡®it¡¯s a pity¡¯, her face also revealed a trace of regret.


    Both parties entered a state of silence once again.


    This state continued until the auction officially began. Unknowingly, many cultivators had already taken their seats.


    The private rooms on the second floor were also filled up at an unknown time.


    ¡°Alright! Everyone, welcome to the auction held in Celestial Lake City. Let¡¯s cut the crap and start with the auction!¡±


    The host of this auction was a woman who exuded a mature aura.


    This woman was wearing a red palace dress, perfectly displaying her curvaceous figure.


    There was a hint of seduction in her every move. She was like a ripe peach, emitting an alluring scent.


    ¡®Divine Ability realm!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed the woman¡¯s aura.


    As expected, she was a Divine Ability cultivator, and her body exuded a dangerous aura.


    It seemed to be a spiritual artifact? Or a dao artifact?


    It had to be said that having such a beautiful woman presiding over the auction calmed down many anxious cultivators.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s have an appetizer first!¡±


    A prison cart was pushed up. A demi-human was inside the prison cart.


    This demi-human had a human upper body but a snake lower body.


    ¡°A demi-human with an Inner Charm Constitution! She is still a virgin, and she is an excellent furnace for dual cultivation!¡±


    As soon as this information was released, Zhou Feng felt countless heated gazes on the prison cart.


    Inner Charm Constitution? He was a little unclear as to what kind of constitution this Inner Charm Constitution was.


    ¡°The Inner Charm Constitution is a very special constitution, especially for dual cultivation!¡±


    When Leng Maner saw Zhou Feng¡¯s puzzled expression, she began to explain.


    It turned out that this Inner Charm Constitution gave birth to a trace of charm. If this trace of charm were refined during dual cultivation, it would turn into extremely pure Spiritual Qi, cleansing the marrow and improving the aptitude.


    Moreover, this charm could be produced continuously, which was equivalent to an excellent furnace.

 Chapter 352 - The Flourishing Dual-Cultivation Path

    Chapter 352 The Flourishing Dual-Cultivation Path


    ¡°Furnace? Dual cultivation?¡±


    Zhou Feng was very sensitive to these two words.


    This was because it was different from other cultivation methods, and he didn¡¯t know if it was the same as he had imagined.


    ¡°The dual-cultivation method is a side path, but many people immerse themselves in this path because cultivation is fast.


    ¡°And the process is extremely pleasant.¡±


    Leng Maner did not think too much and slowly began to explain to Zhou Feng.


    Apart from the first few stages of cultivation, the path of cultivation for different cultivators in the later stages was also different.


    The dual-cultivation method was one of the many side-door cultivation paths.


    Focusing on dual cultivation with a dao partner and taking inspiration from the great Yin-Yang Dao, any dual-cultivation method could not be separated from the fusion of Yin and Yang.


    In the beginning, this dual-cultivation method was only spread in a small area.


    After all, although one could cultivate extremely fast, their foundation would be unstable, and the spiritual power cultivated from it was heterogeneous.


    It had all sorts of disadvantages.


    But as it continued to develop, more and more prodigies joined this path.


    Dual-cultivation methods became more and more popular, and all the previous disadvantages were slowly remedied.


    However, this kind of dual-cultivation method basically harmed others and benefited oneself. If one wanted to solve the disadvantages of dual-cultivation methods, one would need to put in a lot of effort.


    In particular, the birth of the furnace method allowed the dual-cultivation method to reach a peak.


    The so-called furnace method was to cultivate a powerful furnace for one¡¯s own cultivation.


    As the dual-cultivation method continued to develop, normal cultivators could no longer satisfy dual-cultivation experts.


    Moreover, because the dual-cultivation method was prevalent, many cultivators were killed.


    They were taken away and forced to dual cultivate and sucked dry of Vital Qi, causing the dual-cultivation path to be in danger.


    Then, a dual-cultivation expert came up with an idea. Why not cultivate a furnace?


    The furnace technique was born.


    Not only would it be safer to cultivate it by oneself, but it would also be more in line with one¡¯s own requirements.


    Most importantly, it was not so easy to arouse the dislike of other cultivators.


    There were even some dual-cultivation experts who did not cultivate humans to become furnaces.


    Instead, they targeted the other races. This was because the bodies of the other races were generally stronger, and they were even better as furnaces.


    In the end, all the dual-cultivation sects targeted the other races.


    The dual-cultivation path could be considered to have gained a firm foothold and was no longer rejected by other orthodoxies.


    This demi-human in front of them was a Gorgon, an excellent material to be used as a furnace.


    As long as they nurtured it carefully, this Gorgon would be able to break through to the half-step Divine Ability realm.


    Then, they would use the dual-cultivation method to absorb all the Vital Qi, combining Yin and Yang.


    And because Gorgons had strong vitality, they could continue to be nurtured after losing all their Vital Qi until their vitality was exhausted.


    It was precisely because of this that almost all Gorgons had been captured and exterminated.


    Now that one had appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of many dual-cultivation experts.


    ¡°Also, dual cultivating with a Gorgon is even more enjoyable than with a human, not to mention the Inner Charm Constitution.¡±


    As she spoke, Leng Maner stared intently at Zhou Feng


    ¡°So that¡¯s how it is¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng did not expect that the dual-cultivation path in this world could develop to such an extent.


    Although some cultivators still regarded the dual-cultivation path as a side door, the great Divine Ability practitioners were not inferior to orthodox cultivators.


    Zhou Feng once again looked at the high platform.


    He noticed that the human-snake skin was very delicate. There was no clothing on the upper half of the body, and the high mountains were only covered by long black hair.


    That faintly discernible intent was really enough to satisfy one¡¯s appetite.


    ¡°Starting price, 300,000 Spirit Stones!¡±


    The auctioneer started the auction.


    300,000 Spirit Stones!


    Zhou Feng was still a little surprised when he heard the price.


    The starting price was this high!?


    The final price would probably be over 1,000,000 Spirit Stones.


    Moreover, after the Gorgon was bought back, they would have to waste a lot of resources to cultivate them. It seemed that only people with a rich background could follow this dual-cultivation path.


    Although Zhou Feng was interested in what he had just heard, he was not interested in this Gorgon.


    After all, he was not that open-minded. He was not a dual-cultivation practitioner, so this Gorgon was of no use to him.


    Leng Maner looked at Zhou Feng, who had quickly lost interest, and for some reason, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.


    Like him, Leng Maner naturally did not care much about this Gorgon.


    What she cared more about was her Ice Spirit Gu.


    Although Zhou Feng and Leng Maner did not care much about this Gorgon, the crowd started bidding feverently


    The faintly discernible peaks in front of the Gorgon¡¯s chest made the men¡¯s blood boil.


    ¡°400,000!¡±


    II


    11


    ¡°700,000!¡± ¡°Hmph! 1,000,000!¡±


    The Gorgon¡¯s price had reached 1,000,000 Spirit Stones in less than a minute.


    From the looks of it, this price was far from the highest.


    Zhou Feng silently calculated his wealth. The remaining savings from before, together with the Spirit Stones obtained from completing the mission with Leng Maner, all in all, it was only worth 800,000 Spirit Stones.


    Originally, he thought that this was already quite a lot, but he did not expect himself to be so poor.


    ¡°2,000,000!¡±


    In the end, an extremely handsome young man made the highest bid.


    He directly used 2,000,000 Spirit Stones to buy this Gorgon.


    Zhou Fengclicked his tongue in wonder. ¡®How could these people be so rich?¡¯


    But thinking about it, how could he cultivate if he did not have the money? Only Zhou Feng had the golden finger, the skill panel.


    That was why he could cultivate to this level as a vagabond cultivator.


    Even Leng Maner cultivated to this level because she had inherited the resources of the entire Tri-Gu Sect.


    ¡°Alright! Next is still an excellent furnace!¡±


    The auction continued, and next was another ¡®furnace material¡¯.


    But this time, it was a man.


    This man looked extremely thin and weak and had a pair of wings on his back. He was a Harpy.


    Zhou Feng quickly lost interest.


    Just like before, this man caused many cultivators to fight over him.


    The auction continued. There were pills, spiritual artifacts, cultivation techniques, and many other things.


    This auction opened Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, but he didn¡¯t participate.


    Firstly, he didn¡¯t have enough money, and secondly, these things were of no use to him.


    During this process, Zhou Feng found something interesting.


    There were almost no ores or refining materials among those items.


    Most of them were spirit herbs and spiritual artifacts.


    ¡°Next item! Ice Glass Flower! A total of three flowers will be auctioned separately!¡± Finally, the item that Leng Maner needed appeared. ¡°Ice Glass Flower!¡±


    Looking at the ice crystal-like flower on the stage, Leng Maner instantly sat up straight because this was the key to her breakthrough.


    She only hoped that the price would not be too high. If it were too high, Leng Maner would not be able to afford it.


    In order to cultivate, she had already used up most of the Spirit Stones in her hands.


    If not for the cooperation with Zhou Feng a while ago, she might not even have the Spirit Stones to bid for the Ice Glass Flower.


    ¡°Starting price, 500,000 Spirit Stones!¡±


    The Ice Glass Flower had a special effect of removing impurities from the body and was also the main ingredient of a pill, so the price was extremely high.


    After hearing this price, Leng Maner¡¯s hands instantly tightened up nervously.

 Chapter 353 - Leaving Midway

    Chapter 353 Leaving Midway


    ¡®Too expensive!¡¯


    This was Leng Maner¡¯s first thought.


    Compared to Zhou Feng, Leng Maner actually only had 600,000 Spirit Stones on her.


    There was no other way. In contrast with the orthodox cultivation paths, nurturing Gus was considered a side path.


    Although these side cultivation paths had been developed to the point of perfection, and in terms of battle prowess or other aspects, they were not inferior to other orthodox cultivation paths, all side cultivation paths had a weakness¡ªthey consumed a lot of resources.


    And this was also the reason they were called side cultivation paths.


    ¡°600,000!¡±


    In just an instant, someone called out a price.


    ¡°650,000!¡±


    In the next second, it exceeded the price that Leng Maner could bear.


    Leng Maner¡¯s clenched fists slowly relaxed, and her entire person returned to calmness.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Zhou Feng could not help but ask when he saw that Leng Maner did not speak for a long time.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t this Ice Glass Flower something that Leng Maner needs? Why hasn¡¯t she put a bid for it?¡¯


    ¡°Spirit Stones are not enough!¡±


    A few words escaped Leng Maner¡¯s mouth.


    ¡°I have 800,000 Spirit Stones!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not think much about it and directly told her how many Spirit Stones he had.


    Leng Maner bit her lower lip, revealing a trace of hesitation under her veil.


    ¡°I¡¯ll lend them to you.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say anything polite. Toward his few friends, he still chose to help as much as he could.


    After all, the Death Substitution Gu she had given him previously was a truly precious


    item.


    The Death Substitution Gu¡¯s price alone should exceed 800,000 Spirit Stones.


    es.


    Although Zhou Feng did not use it in the end, he gave it to Li Rong instead.


    ¡°800,000!¡± Leng Maner raised the price.


    That cold voice instantly stunned many people.


    After all, although this Ice Glass Flower was rare, someone would auction them every year. And there were a total of three of them.


    Any price beyond 800,000 Spirit Stones was a bit expensive.


    After thinking about it, many people chose to give up. ¡°Is there no one else? 800,000 Spirit Stones!


    Sold!¡±


    The auction process was very smooth. After hearing the word ¡°Sold¡±, Leng Maner finally relaxed.


    So close! She had almost missed the Ice Glass Flower.


    If she missed it this time, she would have to wait at least a year for the next one.


    ¡°I owe a big favor this time!¡±


    Leng Maner looked at Zhou Feng beside her, not knowing how to repay this favor.


    Spirit Stones were equivalent to cultivation resources.


    To cultivators, cultivation resources were everything, no matter how good their relationship was.


    As long as it was related to cultivation resources, it was very easy for them to turn against each other and become enemies once it was not handled properly.


    This was the same as borrowing money from mortals.


    Zhou Feng did not feel any pressure compared to Leng Maner¡¯s psychological pressure. He did not think too much about it.


    It was only 200,000 Spirit Stones. Zhou Feng did not lack this bit of Spirit Stones.


    He had already made up his mind. After the auction ended, he would go to the Celestial Lake to take a look.


    He wanted to see if he could rely on the passive Fisherman¡¯s passivity to catch spirit fish.


    And don¡¯t forget, he still had a treasure.


    That was the Spirit Crystal Warm Jade that Li Rong had given him. This was a truly good item as it could forcefully gather the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    He had never lacked the Spiritual Qi needed for cultivation.


    Zhou Feng could use this Spirit Crystal Warm Jade to create Spirit Stones if it really didn¡¯t work.


    It was just that the efficiency was a little low.


    Perhaps it was because he did not have to worry about cultivation resources ever since he started cultivating. Therefore, he did not place much importance on Spirit Stones.


    ¡°Next is a Visualization Diagram!¡±


    The next auction item was a very simple and unadorned beast skin.


    There was actually a white tiger drawn on this beast skin!


    Although the white tiger wasn¡¯t very well drawn, there was an imposing aura that complemented the image of the white tiger.


    It gave people the feeling that it was about to pounce out.


    ¡°It¡¯s actually a Visualization Diagram? The Jade Sword Holy Land actually took out such an item?¡±


    ¡°So that¡¯s how it is! This is an incomplete Visualization Diagram! No wonder!¡±


    ¡°Incomplete?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! If I¡¯m not wrong, this Visualization Diagram is already damaged. There¡¯s only one image that can be visualized!¡±


    To be honest, the fact that the Jade Sword Holy Land took out a Visualization Diagram was really surprising. After all, Visualization Diagrams were super rare.


    One could temper their soul with a Visualization Diagram, and they would naturally be two steps faster than other cultivators.


    Moreover, the creation of the Visualization Diagram was challenging. Generally, only powerful cultivators had the qualifications to create it.


    As a result, a Visualization Diagram would almost never be leaked out. Without exception, it was in the hands of the various holy lands and ancient clans.


    However, soon, someone realized that the Visualization Diagram on the stage was incomplete.


    Generally speaking, any Visualization Diagram wasn¡¯t just a diagram.


    as


    It was a set of diagrams, just like a comic. It could be improved step by step, and the later it got, the more complicated the diagram became.


    However, the Visualization Diagram on the stage couldn¡¯t be changed. Only this one diagram could be visualized.


    As a result, its value would be greatly reduced.


    It would even be of little value to the Jade Sword Holy Land, which had a complete Visualization Diagram.


    This was because no disciple would be able to visualize this incomplete Visualization Diagram.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land might not be interested in it, but other forces would!


    Even if only one Visualization Diagram could be seen, it could temper one¡¯s soul. Compared to the other cultivators, it was a natural advantage.


    ¡°Starting price, 5,000,000 Spirit Stones! Everyone, name your price!¡±


    ¡°10,000,000!¡±


    ¡°11,000,000!¡±


    The situation got out of control in an instant as many cultivators put their bids.


    The price also continued to rise. ¡®Visualization Diagram¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng really wanted to obtain this so-called Visualization Diagram, but he didn¡¯t have that many Spirit Stones.


    He could only watch the show.


    After an intense competition, the Visualization Diagram was finally sold for 30,000,000 Spirit Stones to a sect.


    The number of people in the auction began to decrease.


    Many cultivators, who had won the item they liked, immediately chose to leave. As the auction progressed, the items in the back became more and more exaggerated. Zhou Feng noticed that nobody from the VIP rooms on the second floor had opened their mouths from the beginning until now.


    Obviously, these people were waiting for the real treasure to be taken out.


    The atmosphere seems a bit wrong,¡¯ Zhou Feng muttered in his heart.


    en


    Od


    ¡®Forget it, it¡¯s better to leave quickly. I can¡¯t stay here any longer.¡¯


    There shouldn¡¯t be anything that he needed in this auction. Even if he needed it, he couldn¡¯t afford it. Thus, it was better to leave quickly.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go?¡±


    Zhou Feng and Leng Maner said.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    After bidding for the Ice Glass Flower, Leng Maner actually wanted to leave a long time ago.


    However, seeing that Zhou Feng was watching with great interest, she didn¡¯t take the initiative to say anything.


    Now that Zhou Feng had taken the initiative to leave, she naturally didn¡¯t have any intention to refuse.


    The following auction wasn¡¯t something they could participate in.


    ¡°Then, shall we go to the exchanging hall outside and take a look?¡±


    In addition to this high-quality auction, there was also a hall outside.


    There were many stalls in the hall for various cultivators to exchange.


    Zhou Feng wanted to see if there were any spiritual items that could produce spiritual fragrances.


    ¡°That¡¯s fine.¡±


    Leng Maner had transformed into a yes-woman, agreeing to whatever Zhou Feng said.


    Leng Maner now owed Zhou Feng 200,000 Spirit Stones, so she couldn¡¯t do otherwise even if she wanted.

 Chapter 354 - Escape

    Chapter 354 Escape


    As the auction progressed, the number of people in the hall on the first floor decreased.


    The things behind them also became more and more precious.


    By the time Zhou Feng and Leng Maner departed, only a few people were left on the first floor.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to know what happened next.


    Anyway, it had nothing to do with him.


    On the contrary, Celestial Lake City was like a powder keg with so many cultivators gathered there.


    Even with the suppression of the spirit-locking formation, it was still very dangerous.


    As such, he planned to spend all the Spirit Stones in exchange for some supplies and leave Celestial Lake City.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t forget that he had killed two Jade Sword disciples.


    Although this matter had not been exposed, it was still a hidden danger.


    If he continued to stay in Celestial Lake City, wouldn¡¯t he be jumping into a trap?


    Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that he was a little stupid.


    Why was he thinking of settling down in Celestial Lake City?


    This spirit-locking formation would instantly become his life-threatening talisman if there were anything wrong.


    After thinking about it, Zhou Feng still felt that it was best to find a place in the wilderness to settle down.


    ¡®It is best to be stable. My lifespan is longer than ordinary people¡¯s, so there is no need to take risks.¡¯


    After contemplating, he decided to sublet the house he had just rented.


    Then he brought Leng Maner to the exchanging hall and found many spirit items.


    Among them, there were materials he could use to make spirit incense.


    Leng Maner also exchanged some materials to nurture Gus.


    Zhou Feng found an opportunity and said to Leng Maner, ¡°I¡¯m leaving Celestial Lake City!¡±


    ¡°So soon?¡±


    Obviously, Leng Maner was a bit surprised.


    Celestial Lake City was very lively now as many cultivators had gathered together. This huge event was a good opportunity to earn resources and exchange information.


    Logically speaking, Zhou Feng should at least wait for a few days before leaving. Why was he in such a hurry?


    ¡°I feel that something is wrong, so it¡¯s better to leave first.¡±


    All sorts of mysterious tricks appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    Killing people and stealing treasures in an auction was a classic scene.


    Actually, it was quite reasonable as cultivators carried terrifying power. Without strong rules and restrictions deterring them, they naturally had some thoughts when facing all kinds of spirit objects, especially those that could raise one¡¯s cultivation.


    As the saying went, ¡®The heart of a person with a sharp weapon is filled with killing intent.¡¯


    When a person had extraordinary power, they would harbor many greedy thoughts.


    In such a state, it was better to stay far away.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    After Zhou Feng spoke, Leng Maner also had the intention to leave.


    ¡°Oh right, I have an aura-concealing technique here. It¡¯s yours. I hope you don¡¯t


    die!¡±


    Zhou Feng knew that Leng Maner also had her own goals and would definitely not follow him.


    Moreover, he was more used to wandering alone.


    Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, he handed the Aquamarine Breathing Technique he had obtained in the Southern Sea to Leng Maner.


    Although this Aquamarine Breathing Technique was not comparable to the Longevity Breathing Technique, it was still an aura-concealing technique.


    Leng Maner should be much safer with the Aquamarine Breathing Technique.


    ¡°Remember to use the Aquamarine Breathing Technique on a daily basis to avoid some petty pests.¡±


    Perhaps because they were about to leave, Zhou Feng spoke more than usual.


    He naturally did not wish for his few friends to die. Otherwise, he would be lonely if he didn¡¯t have any friends in this world.


    ¡°Got it!¡±


    Looking at Chatterbox Zhou Feng, Leng Maner pretended to listen carefully.


    ¡°That¡¯s about it. As for the Spirit Stones you owe me, you can pay them back when you see me in the future.


    ¡°If there are no accidents, my final destination should be the Central Plains.¡±


    Zhou Feng gave a few last words and prepared to turn around and leave.


    He wasn¡¯t a wishy-washy person.


    If he said he was going to leave, he would naturally do it cleanly.


    In any case, he had already dealt with all the miscellaneous matters.


    ¡°The Central Plains¡­¡±


    Leng Maner looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s back and set a goal in her heart.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng and Leng Maner separated again. They separated very cleanly and didn¡¯t say anything else.


    Leng Maner also listened to Zhou Feng¡¯s advice and left Celestial Lake City at the first possible moment.


    Zhou Feng left Celestial Lake City very quietly and even changed his identity before doing so.


    This was to prevent others from finding out, especially Jiang Yi.


    This person had gotten close to him for no reason and had given him the Whale King Musk.


    There was definitely something fishy about this, so Zhou Feng could not allow Jiang Yi to find out he would leave Celestial Lake City.


    As he slowly moved away from Celestial Lake City, the uneasiness in his heart slowly calmed down.


    ¡®Sure enough! Celestial Lake City is a powder keg!¡¯


    Zhou Feng heaved a sigh of relief. The reason Celestial Lake City so decisively was due to his passive Battle Instinct.


    After the auction, he had always felt that something was wrong. His senses kept warning him that Celestial Lake City was not a place to stay for long.


    That was why Zhou Feng had made this choice.


    ¡°Big Yellow, let¡¯s speed up!¡±


    He looked at the map briefly and asked Big Yellow to speed up.


    According to the map, the Celestial Lake was still quite far away.


    He had to reach the Celestial Lake before dark.


    If nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to settle down at the Celestial Lake for some time.


    After receiving his order, Big Yellow appeared to be exhilarated.


    He started to run as fast as he could. He could leap more than ten meters with his two-meter-tall body with just a light leap.


    There was also his soft fur. As a mount, Big Yellow wasn¡¯t inferior to other exotic beasts.


    At this time, Zhou Feng also felt how great it was to have a mount.


    The wild wind whistled by his ears, and the surrounding scenery rapidly changed.


    This feeling was too great! Now that he had a mount, he was only lacking a few spiritual artifacts. He could be considered a standard cultivator!


    While Zhou Feng was in a good mood¡­


    As expected, something big had happened in Celestial Lake City, and the spirit-locking formation was suddenly activated.


    Waves of terrifying aura broke through the spirit-locking formation.


    ¡°You guys actually dare to cause trouble in Celestial Lake City!?¡±


    ¡°Quickly leave the Dragonification Fruit behind!¡±


    ¡°Hmph! How can a mere formation stop me?¡±


    ¡°Old man! You¡¯re actually so Shameless! A dignifiedDragon Transformation expertAh!¡±


    Terrifying ripples spread throughout the entire city.


    One could tell from the words just now that someone in the Dragon Transformation realm was making a move. No wonder the spirit-locking formation was activated.


    Although Celestial Lake City¡¯s spirit-locking formation was powerful, it could even suppress those in the Divine Ability realm-it was difficult to suppress those in the Dragon Transformation realm. After stepping into the Dragon Transformation realm, one¡¯s body was like a carp turning into a dragon.


    Ordinary formations were unable to suppress them. If there weren¡¯t cultivators of the same level, it would be impossible to stop them with just some Divine Ability cultivators.


    Fortunately, Celestial Lake City¡¯s Dragon Transformation expert also made a move.


    However, the entire Celestial Lake City was already in chaos. Seeing this scene, some vagabond cultivators waiting for the opportunity to make a move, took action.


    In any case, these vagabond cultivators had rotten lives. It was better to take this opportunity to plunder ruthlessly.


    As long as they succeeded, they would not need to worry about the problem of cultivation resources for a long time in the future.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had left Celestial Lake City early. Otherwise, he would have been implicated.


    No one had expected that Celestial Lake City, which had been stable for such a long time, would fall into chaos so easily.

 Chapter 355 - Fishing

    Chapter 355 Fishing


    Celestial Lake City was a rare big city under the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s jurisdiction.


    It also had a spiritual land like the Celestial Lake, so it was definitely a key location for the Jade Sword Holy Land to be stationed.


    Not only did it have a Dragon Transformation expert guarding it, but it also had a super spirit-locking formation.


    Since the establishment of Celestial Lake City, there had been almost no disturbances.


    But now, it fell into chaos just like that. This didn¡¯t seem like an accident at all. Instead, it seemed like a long-planned conspiracy.


    However, none of this was important to Zhou


    Feng.


    He had already left Celestial Lake City ahead of schedule and headed toward the Celestial Lake.


    However, some foreign cultivators were now forced to stay in Celestial Lake City.


    It was impossible to leave. The great formation had already sealed the entire Celestial Lake City.


    Although the Celestial Lake was called a lake, it was actually a large swamp.


    It was made up of countless lakes. In the depths of the Celestial Lake, there were even all kinds of demonic beasts and other races.


    Thanks to Big Yellow¡¯s hard work, Zhou Feng finally reached the Celestial Lake before dark.


    ¡°Is this the Celestial Lake?¡±


    Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhou Feng felt an inexplicable shock in his heart.


    The boundless lake surface and the dreamy mist were very similar to the legendary Cloud Dream Swamp.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi was also denser than in other places. It seemed good to cultivate here for a while.


    ¡®I should find a foothold first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sighed before searching for a foothold.


    A safe foothold in the wild was extremely crucial.


    For him, his first thought was naturally to find a cave.


    Compared to other places, a cave was more secure.


    After a while, he found a suitable place, a short mountain that was not far from the Celestial Lake.


    Although there was no cave, Zhou Feng used his body to dig out a cave.


    Then, he began to set up a formation and made some simple arrangements.


    This small cave was extremely hidden as many vines concealed the entrance.


    If one didn¡¯t search carefully, it would be difficult to discover that there was a cave here.


    After the layout was almost complete, Zhou Feng specifically ordered Big Yellow, ¡°Big Yellow, take good care of the cave entrance, understand?¡±


    He definitely wouldn¡¯t have dared to be so bold to find a cave and enter seclusion randomly if it were in the past.


    This was because there were many dangers in the wild compared to the human cities.


    These dangers came from human cultivators and the myriad races.


    However, Zhou Feng felt much more at ease with Big Yellow¡¯s warning ability.


    As a Mountain Spirit Hound, Big Yellow itself was very sensitive, and its sense of smell was even more terrifying.


    As long as there was any sign of trouble nearby, it would be able to detect it immediately.


    Not to mention that now Big Yellow had broken through to the Spirit General rank, its alertness was even greater than Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    Thus, with Big Yellow protecting him, he entered closed-door cultivation with complete peace of mind.


    ¡®It¡¯s still better to make spirit incense first.¡¯


    Zhou Feng took the Whale King Musk and the various items he had exchanged for out of his storage ring.


    As this was his first time making incense, he wasn¡¯t very familiar with it.


    But it didn¡¯t matter. He just needed to knead everything together according to a fixed ratio.


    Although the effect would be slightly worse, it was still better than directly burning the Whale King Musk.


    Soon, Zhou Feng created the first incense stick.


    During this process, he had even triggered the passive Skill Proficiency.


    His entire person seemed to receive the deities¡¯ help as the spirit incense that he produced was pretty decent.


    ¡°Perfect!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately lit up the spirit incense.


    In an instant, a faint fragrance began to spread out.


    That faint fragrance slowly rose, but it did not dissipate and remained floating around Zhou Feng


    He closed his eyes at the first moment and began to try to travel through the great void.


    Compared to the last time, he could feel that the effect of the spirit incense this time was slightly better.


    Although the effect did not increase much, this spirit incense was much more resistant to burning than the Whale King Musk.


    Once again, Zhou Feng felt as if his entire body was immersed in the boundless void.


    Strands of Great Void Primordial Qi shuttled through his nascent soul, and the Great Void Dao began to illuminate in his heart.


    The great void was formless, the true form of energy. It gathered and dispersed, transforming into a vague form. Zhou Feng actually comprehended a bit of the Great Void Dao in an instant.


    Then, his physical body began to condense a strand of Great Void Primordial Qi. Whether it was Blood Qi or Spiritual Qi, they were devoured to produce a strand of Great Void Primordial Qi. But this strand of Great Void Primordial Qi was very difficult to transform.


    The speed of the transformation was also very fixed.


    Even when the Whale King Spirit Incense was burnt out, not a single strand of it was formed.


    ¡°What a pity!¡±


    Zhou Feng slowly opened his eyes, somewhat regretful.


    It was a pity that until the end, he had not succeeded in condensing a strand of the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    If he could condense a strand of Great Void Primordial Qi, it meant that he had comprehended the Great Void Primordial Art.


    With this, he could break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    As expected, it was not so easy to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Moreover, once the Whale King Spirit Incense was burnt out, his progress would be like a crawling turtle¡¯s pace.


    At this speed, he would probably need some time before he could officially step through the door.


    ¡°Fortunately, the Whale King Musk is still enough. It should be able to support me to break through to the Divine Ability realm!¡¯


    Soul traveling to the great void was a great drain on one¡¯s essence, energy, and spirit.


    After experiencing this soul travel to the great void, he still needed to rest for a few more days before he could continue.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Feng planned to fish properly.


    This Celestial Lake had quite a number of spirit fish. He wondered if his passive Fisherman would work or not.


    As soon as dawn broke, Zhou Feng brought Big Yellow out of the cave.


    He was holding a newly made fishing rod in his hand.


    ¡°Big Yellow, let¡¯s go. It¡¯s time to fish!¡±


    Compared to Celestial Lake City, he was very relaxed at this time. He didn¡¯t feel as restrained as before.


    The Celestial Lake was boundless.


    Zhou Feng walked along the shore for some distance and soon noticed other cultivators that were fishing.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance naturally attracted the attention of quite a few cultivators.


    This was because the cultivation level that Zhou Feng displayed wasn¡¯t low; he was a peak Purple Mansion cultivator.


    Although this sort of cultivation level wasn¡¯t considered much in Celestial Lake City, it was considered quite high here.


    ¡°This person¡­ The yellow wolf next to him is also at the Spirit General rank!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t bother. If he dares to come and take our land, we¡¯ll take action. We don¡¯t need to bother if he doesn¡¯t obstruct us!¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s not cause any more trouble!¡± III


    A few people whispered to each other, looking at Zhou Feng with a hint of wariness in their eyes.


    During this process, Zhou Feng also observed how these people fished. He could tell that these people were all experienced.


    After a while, he found that the fishing rod in his hand seemed to be a joke.


    These people were all holding 1-meter-long spiritual harpoons, and a thick hemp rope was tied behind them.


    At this time, Zhou Feng remembered that this world was not like the one in his previous life.


    The fish in this world were all extremely powerful, and some of them could even reach the Spirit King rank.


    Just by relying on the fishing rod in his hand, he was afraid that it would break with a pull.


    It was a mistake!


    Before making a move, he had to observe how the others did it.


    He slowly walked forward, and from a relatively far position, he began to observe how the cultivators actually fished.

 Chapter 356 - Understanding

    Chapter 356 Understanding


    It sounded abnormal for a cultivator to fish, right? After all, why would a high and mighty cultivator do such a thing?


    It was very normal, however. Most cultivators needed to obtain sufficient resources to cultivate.


    In addition, this world had sufficient Spiritual Qi and was dangerous in the wild. It was very difficult for mortals to survive.


    Why was it said that the Southern Border was barren?


    In fact, a very important criterion was how many mortals there were.


    The higher the proportion of mortals, the more barren this place was.


    Because this place simply couldn¡¯t provide enough resources for cultivators to cultivate.


    The commoners of this world should be the professional cultivators passed down from generation to generation in Celestial Lake City.


    Those who didn¡¯t cultivate weren¡¯t even commoners.


    Therefore, it was very normal for cultivators to catch fish.


    After all, the fish they caught weren¡¯t ordinary ones.


    Zhou Feng stroked Big Yellow¡¯s fur while observing how those people caught fish.


    Those people took out some bait, its smell pungent.


    Even though Zhou Feng was far away, he could feel the pungent smell.


    ¡°This bait¡­!


    While Zhou Feng was frowning, these people threw all the bait far away.


    In an instant, the calm surface of the lake began to churn.


    S


    Black shadows emerged from the bottom of the lake, and a savage aura erupted.


    ¡°It¡¯s coming!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s the Blackbear Fish!¡±


    ¡°Attack!¡±


    This was a small group of five people.


    After seeing the bait react, they looked at each other and decided to attack.


    The Blackbear Fish could be considered a specialty of the Celestial Lake. There were so many of them that it was almost impossible to kill them all.


    This was the lowest grade of fish in the Celestial Lake.


    It was named after its enormous size and black bear-like head.


    Don¡¯t underestimate this type of fish. Although this type of fish was at the bottom level of the Celestial Lake, its fleshly body was terrifying. Its brute strength could even suppress Purple Mansion cultivators.


    Generally speaking, these Blackbear Fish moved in schools, and they would all appear together.


    In addition to their geographical advantage, it would be quite difficult for ordinary Purple Mansion cultivators to deal with these Blackbear Fish.


    However, even so, there were still many cultivators who came in groups to catch these Blackbear Fish.


    There were even Purple Mansion cultivators.


    This was because the flesh of the Blackbear Fish was delicious, and there was even a trace of essence energy within it.


    Long-term consumption could improve one¡¯s physique. Other than that, fish scales, fish bones, and fish blood were all rare materials.


    Fish scales could be used to make armor, fish bones could be used to make arrows, and fish blood could be used as ink to make talismans.


    The current human race was no longer the human race of the Human Emperor era.


    In order to assist the entire human race¡¯s cultivation, almost all the other races had been studied.


    As long as they contained Spiritual Qi, all of them had their uses.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    These people worked well together. Two of them stood in front to defend while the other two threw their harpoons from behind.


    The last person was in the middle, ready to assist at any time.


    The specially made harpoons instantly pierced through the Blackbear Fish.


    In an instant, the Blackbear Fish began to jump crazily.


    Its robust body suddenly jumped up and then quickly dived to the bottom of the lake.


    The terrifying strength almost dragged a person to the bottom of the lake.


    At the same time, the other Blackbear Fish crazily swallowed the bait.


    There were also some Blackbear Fish that spat out water arrows.


    A large number of water arrows flew directly to the shore.


    Two of the five fishermen hurriedly resisted these water arrows.


    These water arrows were the only attack methods of the Blackbear Fish other than their physical bodies.


    Although they looked simple, these water arrows contained a trace of Water Qi and were extremely sharp.


    Moreover, there were so many of them that tens of thousands of arrows would pierce them if they were not careful.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that these Blackbear Fish had a more tacit understanding than the five-man fishing team.


    In a short while, they finished eating the bait and then attacked collectively, shooting out countless water arrows.


    ¡°Release!¡±


    Seeing this, the person in the middle could only give up and hurriedly ordered them to retreat.


    Then, the fishing operation ended in failure.


    The five-man team even lost all the bait and a harpoon.


    ¡°F*ck! These fish¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little dumbfounded.


    These fish were powerful, and it seemed like they had done this more than ten times. Otherwise, they wouldn¡¯t have such a tacit understanding.


    No wonder there were so many cultivators gathered in the Celestial Lake.


    It was still very difficult to fish alone.


    At this time, Zhou Feng looked at the fishing rod in his hand while thinking of the Blackbear Fish¡¯s size.


    ¡°What a pity! Only the Blackbear Fish will take the bait in the near future. Let¡¯s go back first!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s nothing we can do! It¡¯s our fault for not having a battleship. We can only stay here on the shore!¡±


    ¡°If we had a battleship, we would be able to go deep into the lake. There wouldn¡¯t be so many Blackbear Fish there.¡±


    The five-man team looked a bit dejected, but this result wasn¡¯t unacceptable.


    These Blackbear Fish were becoming more and more cunning, so they weren¡¯t as easy to catch as they were a dozen years ago.


    This was because a large number of cultivators were fishing in the Celestial Lake, causing the fish to undergo drastic changes.


    The fish that were weak in battle were almost extinct.


    Only the Blackbear Fish that were strong in battle were left.


    Other than that, some fish were abnormally intelligent. Their intelligence was not inferior to that of humans.


    A simple bait would not be able to lure these spirit fish up.


    Then there were the Spirit King rank fish. They were on par with Divine Ability experts, so it was tough to deal with them.


    Moreover, the area with the most fish was the central area of the Celestial Lake.


    However, ordinary cultivators did not dare to cross the lake without a battleship.


    If one dared to cross the lake without the protection of a battleship, they would end up in the belly of a fish even if they had cultivated to the Divine Ability realm..


    The five-man team chose to leave.


    Zhou Feng was the only one left on the shore.


    ¡®A battleship?¡¯


    Zhou Feng analyzed some information from their conversation.


    The fishing methods of those people were probably the simplest.


    Therefore, they could only work on the shore.


    If it was a more advanced method, would they navigate the warship to the depths of the lake to work?


    His heart slightly moved at that thought.


    ¡®Forget it! Let¡¯s give it a try first. I have the passive Fisherman, anyway.¡¯


    After thinking about it, Zhou Feng felt that it was better to give it a try himself.


    It was not difficult to deal with the Blackbear Fish given his strength. Those water arrows couldn¡¯t penetrate his skin at all.


    Zhou Feng planned to catch a Blackbear Fish.


    With so many cultivators fishing in the Celestial Lake, there must be a market nearby to buy these fish.


    Perhaps, there were many strongholds nearby.


    Unfortunately, the map he had gotten in Celestial Lake City only recorded those big cities.


    As for what was in other places, there was basically nothing.


    He still had to rely on himself to explore slowly.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng was not so impatient. He could take this opportunity to integrate into this world slowly.

 Chapter 357 - The Passive Skill Showcasing its Might

    Chapter 357 The Passive Skill Showcasing its Might


    The Xia Clan was the largest clan in the vicinity of the Celestial Lake.


    More than a dozen clansmen had joined the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    At the same time, there was also an Artifact Refiner in the clan who could refine Spiritual Qi-grade battleships.


    With the power of the Jade Sword Holy Land and more than a dozen battleships, the Xia Clan could be considered a tyrant in the Celestial Lake.


    Not long ago, they had even forcefully divided an area for the exclusive use of the Xia Clan.


    The rest of the cultivators were not allowed to enter this area to fish.


    This naturally caused the other forces to be dissatisfied.


    This Celestial Lake did not belong to the Xia Clan. How could the Xia Clan be able to divide an area that was exclusive to them?


    Everyone worked for the Jade Sword Holy Land, and everyone paid taxes.


    Thus, these forces began to besiege the Xia Clan.


    The Xia Clan, on the other hand, was very powerful, so they did not lower their heads in the face of the siege.


    Still, the Xia Clan wanted to ease the pressure on their clan.


    Coincidentally, there was a woman in the Xia Clan who had outstanding talent and possessed the legendary Spiritwater Constitution.


    The idea of a marriage alliance instantly popped up.


    In fact, this was also a common method used by the major forces. They relied on marriage alliances as a way to connect and win over allies.


    Or they could find outstanding vagabond cultivators.


    Why did they add the phrase ¡°Find outstanding vagabond cultivators¡± at the end?


    Naturally, this was because the daughter of the Xia Clan was a cultivator with unlimited potential.


    Naturally, it was impossible for her to marry into another clan, and the Xia Clan absolutely wouldn¡¯t allow their own geniuses to leave.


    Undoubtedly, the so-called marriage was actually for other people to marry into the Xia Clan. In the end, the daughter of the Xia Clan would be the one to choose the person to marry into the clan.


    The final child could only have the surname of the mother, Xia.


    Although this condition was harsh, countless cultivators still wanted to marry into the clan.


    As compensation for marrying into the clan, the Xia Clan would provide their son-in-law with all the cultivation resources before the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Moreover, they could also choose a dao art from the Xia Clan¡¯s treasury.


    Just this condition alone had attracted countless cultivators.


    Not to mention that the daughter of the Xia Clan was not bad-looking, enough to be called a fairy.


    The Spiritwater Constitution was also an excellent constitution for dual cultivation.


    Dual cultivating with the Spiritwater Constitution could purify the Spiritual Qi and remove the impurities in the body.


    With so many benefits, naturally, many cultivators would move upon hearing the


    news.


    The alliance that deliberately targeted the Xia Clan previously was also suspended because of this matter.


    ¡°I heard that if you want to become the son-in-law of the Xia Clan, you have to pass three tests in a row!¡±


    ¡°The first test is to catch a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish!¡±


    ¡°What? A Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This kind of spirit fish is in the Celestial Lake, but it¡¯s very rare. You can only rely on luck to catch it.¡±


    Several cultivators sighed and walked toward Zhou Feng¡¯s direction.


    Not long ago, the Xia Clan had announced the first condition for the Xia Clan¡¯s noble daughter to choose a son-in-law.


    And that was to offer up a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was a type of spirit fish found in the Celestial Lake.


    It wasn¡¯t very strong, with the strongest being around the Purple Mansion realm.


    However, this type of spirit fish was very good at hiding. As long as one was in the water, it was almost impossible to find its tracks.


    It didn¡¯t even have a fixed residence, and if one wanted to catch it, it would depend on luck.


    Moreover, sometimes, even if one encountered it, it was possible to miss it.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish could fly in the air when necessary.


    It was as if it was in the water.


    In a critical moment, the scales on its body could act like a mirror, reflecting a dazzling light.


    That kind of light couldn¡¯t be seen directly with the naked eye. It could even block the perception of the soul.


    ¡°Right! What does this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish look like? Have you seen it?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve seen it before because Fairy Xia has one.¡±


    ¡°It looks like a carp, and its whole body is like white jade¡­¡±


    ¡°Are its eyes like a woman¡¯s, as clear as autumn water?¡±


    ¡°Eh? How do you know? Didn¡¯t you just


    say¡­¡±


    Zhao Qianxing was completely stunned because the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish they were talking about just now was right in front of his eyes!


    One person had just caught it with a wooden


    rod.


    ¡®I really caught something?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little stunned as he looked at the fish floating in the air in front of him. It was as light as a fairy.


    After the five-person group¡¯s departure, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but feel excited about fishing.


    Even though the fishing rod in his hand was a little crude-it was a wooden rod that didn¡¯t even have a hook, just a string with some leftover herbs at its end-Zhou Feng had the passive Fisherman. The passive skill simply and roughly increased the hook rate by 50%.


    In other words, no matter what, he only needed to use the rod twice.


    He would definitely have a fish one time. Under such circumstances, the fishing rod being a little crude shouldn¡¯t matter.


    Thus, Zhou Feng threw the ¡®bait¡¯.


    After waiting for a long time, he finally hooked a fish.


    However, he didn¡¯t know that the fish in front of him was the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    ¡®It can actually float in the air?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes betrayed his astonishment.


    There seemed to be a trace of doubt on his face, and he also seemed to be a little confused.


    Although he was a little surprised, he thought that this fish should be very valuable!


    The Spiritual Qi its body emitted was very pure, and just its ability meant that it could fetch a good price.


    It was a good start!


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was even more confused than him.


    Those humans had gone crazy during this period, looking for it everywhere.


    There was no safe place in the central area, so the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish quietly left and came to the shore to look for food.


    But just now, for some unknown reason, it bit something


    The thing was¡­ what it bit was not in the diet of a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish only like eating aquatic plants in the lake that were full of Spiritual Qi,


    But just now, it had bitten on an unknown thing, and it was pulled out of the water by someone.


    It was not until it saw Zhou Feng that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish realized that it had been tricked.


    It had been fished up by a human?


    This was a great humiliation!


    As a spirit fish with extremely high intelligence, it was basically impossible to be fished up with bait.


    Originally, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish wanted to use its innate ability and escape, but its instincts screamed not to do that. The human in front of it was very dangerous.


    Once it did, it would definitely not be able to escape.


    That faintly discernible and terrifying aura made the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish tremble.


    ¡®This fish¡­ is dumb? Why isn¡¯t it trying to escape?¡¯


    Zhou Feng stretched out his hand to touch the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face.


    It was said that all spirit fish were very intelligent. They would run the moment they met a person, and they were slippery and difficult to catch.


    Why was this a little different from the legends?


    ¡°Celestial¡­ Spiritmirror Fish?¡±


    ¡°Are you for real!? How could the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish be in a place like this?¡±


    ¡°And why doesn¡¯t it try to escape!?¡±


    Zhao Qianxing was so shocked that his jaw almost fell off.


    ¡®Who on earth is this? Why was he able to catch the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish? And why isn¡¯t the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish trying to escape!?¡¯

 Chapter 358 - Thunder Suppression

    Chapter 358 Thunder Suppression


    Zhao Qianxing was instantly moved. There was no one else around, and the person in front of him was only in the Purple Mansion realm.


    If he could snatch the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, then¡­


    Zhao Qianxing didn¡¯t have any thoughts of becoming the son-in-law of the Xia Clan because he knew that he wasn¡¯t qualified enough.


    But he could absolutely get his hands on the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish and sell it for a good price.


    Who knew how many factions were searching for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish right now?.


    As long as they made smart moves, they didn¡¯t have to worry about the resources needed to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡°There¡¯s no one around!¡±


    ¡°How is it?¡±


    ¡°How about 50%?¡±


    IIII


    Greed instantly surged in the hearts of the three people, including Zhao Qianxing.


    They looked at each other and smiled at the same time.


    There was nothing they could do! The temptation in front of them was too great.


    They would have some cultivation resources as long as they could get their hands on this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    Moreover, this was the wilderness. As long as they were fast enough, there was basically no danger.


    As for whether Zhou Feng had any background, this matter was not within their consideration.


    They could hide in Celestial Lake City as long as they covered their faces and killed him.


    Who would be able to catch them?


    In the face of benefits, Zhao Qianxing and the others¡¯ IQs had also dropped by a lot.


    ¡°Quickly resolve this!¡±


    Zhao Qianxing and the other two immediately covered their faces.


    Then, they completely surrounded Zhou Feng from three directions.


    Three against one!


    Zhao Qianxing and the other two were all peak Purple Mansion cultivators. Dealing with a Purple Mansion cultivator shouldn¡¯t be a problem.


    The problem was how to get their hands on the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. After all, their ultimate goal was still the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, not Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Are these people courting death?¡¯


    Zhou Feng and Big Yellow had long since discovered Zhao Qianxing and the others.


    However, they didn¡¯t make any movements. After all, this was a public space.


    It was possible that others were here to fish, and he wasn¡¯t that overbearing.


    As long as someone approached, he would take action.


    But soon, he felt a trace of killing intent from these people.


    Within a few seconds, that killing intent wasn¡¯t concealed at all.


    It was directly aimed at Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Could it be because of this fish? From the looks of it, the value of this fish should be very high!¡¯


    With this thought, the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body moved.


    The golden Blood Qi that was like a wave gushed out.


    The Invincible Avatar also appeared.


    Compared to before, Zhou Feng was a step further. His Blood Qi had some traces of Great Void Primordial Qi with it.


    AlthoughZhou Feng had failed to condense the strand of Great Void Primordial Qi, whatever traces he had managed to gather had fused into his physical body.


    In addition to the fact that he had bathed in the immortal lake, both his physical body and Blood Qi had become even more powerful.


    Therefore, the moment the Invincible Avatar appeared, Zhao Qianxing and the others were suppressed. It was the kind of suppression one could not resist at all.


    ¡°¡®I¡­¡±


    The golden Blood Qi was like the vast ocean, and Zhao Qianxing felt that he could not breathe.


    At this moment, he realized that he had done something utterly stupid.


    Apart from Zhao Qianxing, the other two were instantly crushed to death by Zhou Feng¡¯s strange avatar.


    Their entire bodies seemed to have been compressed into a ball.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess was already comparable to some Divine Ability cultivators.


    Dealing with a few Purple Mansion cultivators was a piece of cake right now.


    As for the remaining Zhao Qianxing, Zhou Feng planned to ask him a few questions.


    Thus, he left this person alive for now.


    ¡°Big Yellow!¡±


    Zhou Feng gave a simple command.


    Big Yellow instantly jumped up, ferociously charging in Zhao Qianxing¡¯s direction.


    Zhao Qianxing only felt as if a black shadow had ruthlessly struck him.


    His ribs instantly broke, and then his neck was bitten.


    Big Yellow¡¯s sharp canine teeth pierced into Zhao Qianxing¡¯s neck.


    Having inherited a portion of Zhou Feng¡¯s strength, Big Yellow¡¯s current battle prowess wasn¡¯t inferior to an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator.


    It was even stronger than most Purple Mansion cultivators.


    Zhao Qianxing didn¡¯t even have the time to feel a hint of regret in his heart.


    His entire vision instantly turned black because Big Yellow grabbed him from his neck and headed toward Zhou Feng.


    When he came back to his senses, he saw Zhou Feng in front of him.


    ¡°I ask, you answer. Is this fish very valuable?¡±


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to waste time. He directly used his Blood Qi to wrap around the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish and placed it in front of Zhao Qianxing.


    Zhao Qianxing was so scared that his lips moved slightly. He swallowed his saliva and began to explain with a trembling voice.


    ¡°Celestial Spiritmirror Fish? Xia Clan?¡±


    Zhou Feng received a lot of information.


    Most of the information was useless to him, but there was one important point-the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was invaluable.


    ¡°How many Spirit Stones is this worth?¡±


    ¡°This¡­ I don¡¯t know either. After all, not many people were able to catch this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish before!¡±


    Zhao Qianxing only knew that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was very valuable.


    The number of Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was too small, there weren¡¯t many transactions, and there wasn¡¯t any so-called market price.


    But one thing was certain; the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish would only be more valuable since one had to catch it to become the Xia Clan¡¯s son-in-law.


    ¡°Which forces are nearby?¡±


    ¡°And¡­¡±


    Next, Zhou Feng asked some simple questions.


    For example, where would the fish caught nearby be sold, what forces were nearby, and what should he pay attention to? There were more spirit fish in the Celestial Lake.


    These were all common sense questions, and Zhou Feng just happened to lack this kind of information the most.


    Thus, he took this opportunity to ask properly.


    Zhao Qianxing did not dare to hide anything at all. He spilled everything like beans.


    This person in front of him had just killed two of his companions. And after killing them, he was not affected at all.


    It was obvious that he was a ruthless person.


    Zhao Qianxing¡¯s current thoughts were very simple; that was to tell everything he knew.


    Then, he hoped that Zhou Feng would be kind enough to spare his dog life.


    If he could return alive this time, he definitely wouldn¡¯t dare to be so reckless in the future.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng had no intention of letting this person go.


    Since he dared to harbor evil thoughts toward him, he had to pay the price.


    You want to kill me, and I have to forgive you? How could there be such a worthwhile thing in the world?


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s questions became fewer and fewer, Zhao Qianxing¡¯s aura also became weaker and weaker.


    After all, Zhao Qianxing¡¯s body was still bleeding, and his injuries had not been treated.


    If this continued, his life might be in danger.


    But Zhao Qianxing did not dare to say anything. He just waited for Zhou Feng to finish asking all the questions.


    ¡°Big Yellow!¡±


    After Zhou Feng finished asking all the questions, he immediately let Big Yellow take care of this person. Zhao Qianxing felt the danger, and his eyes suddenly widened. It was as if he was saying, ¡°I¡¯ve cooperated so much!! Why won¡¯t you let me go!?¡±


    Big Yellow bit Zhao Qianxing¡¯s neck and ended his life.


    This person didn¡¯t even have time to question him.

 Chapter 359 - Another Type of Fishing

    Chapter 359 Another Type of Fishing


    ¡°Looks like my luck is pretty good!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish floating in his palm.


    He had just fished, and he had already caught such a valuable fish.


    If that person hadn¡¯t lied, Zhou Feng should be able to exchange this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish for a lot of Spirit Stones.


    This was very good news for Zhou Feng as he didn¡¯t have many Spirit Stones left.


    ¡°I should be able to exchange this for a dao artifact!¡±


    Compared to ordinary spiritual artifacts, he hoped to obtain a dao artifact.


    After seeing the Extreme Yin Black Lotus, which had a solid defense, Zhou Feng wanted to obtain a dao artifact for himself to aid him in battle.


    ¡°Let¡¯s continue fishing!¡±


    He used a fish basket he looted from Zhao Qianxing¡¯s body to store the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    Although it looked like a fish basket made of bamboo, the bamboo did not seem to be simple bamboo.


    It slightly emitted traces of Spiritual Qi, which was enough to trap the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    Zhou Feng continued his fishing career.


    It seemed that he had used up all his luck.


    In the following days, almost all of the fish that Zhou Feng caught were Blackbear Fish.


    Moreover, they appeared in schools. He took two waves of water arrows from the Blackbear Fish and only managed to get two Blackbear Fish.


    One of them was given to Big Yellow as breakfast.


    The other one was stored.


    Now that Big Yellow was growing up, it was not very good for his growth if he was only fed with Spirit Stones.


    It was still necessary to eat some meat.


    The Blackbear Fish that was rich in Spiritual Qi was obviously very suitable.


    The most important thing was that Zhou Feng did not need to spend any Spirit Stones. He only needed a fishing rod.


    Zhou Feng finally realized that the passive Fisherman was heaven-defying.


    One did not even need to put bait, not even a hook. They only needed to use the fishing rod to make a fishing action, and there was a chance to catch a fish.


    This was simply a weapon of karma.


    The only pity was that this passive skill could only ensure the hook rate.


    In other words, although one could catch a fish, they could not specify what kind of fish it would be,


    Zhou Feng had been fishing for a long time, and almost all his encounters had to do with Blackbear Fish.


    And these Blackbear Fish were indeed difficult to deal with, even with his strength.


    Most importantly, every time he caught a Blackbear Fish, the schools of these Blackbear Fish would increase.


    After forcefully killing a few Blackbear Fish, numerous Blackbear Fish began to gather by the lakeside. Some of these Blackbear Fish even had reached the Spirit King rank.


    It was simply ridiculous!


    Zhou Feng had no choice but to leave in the end.


    It seemed that these Blackbear Fish had become the Celestial Lake¡¯s overlord for a reason.


    ¡°Forget it, let¡¯s go to Koi Town and take a look,¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the intention to continue fishing


    In any case, he had already obtained 6 Blackbear Fish, which should be worth a lot of Spirit Stones.


    He could go to the nearby Koi Town and take a look.


    Koi Town was a small town, or to be precise, a gathering hub built by several clans


    There were many merchants who specialized in purchasing all kinds of spirit fish and materials, as well as cultivators who were selling all kinds of things.


    However, Koi Town wasn¡¯t as safe compared to Celestial Lake City.


    Not only did it not have a spirit-locking formation, but even the public security consisted of clansmen.


    It wasn¡¯t a big deal for them to take advantage of each other. In any case, there were all kinds of fights.


    In terms of culture, it couldn¡¯t compare to Celestial Lake City at all.


    However, this Koi Town was still prosperous.


    There was no other way!


    Koi Town was the only place near Celestial Lake.


    Many cultivators had to go to Celestial Lake City to obtain raw materials.


    Although going to Celestial Lake City was the safest bet as they would earn a lot, it wasn¡¯t safe during the journey. Thus, it was better to exchange on the spot.


    After leaving Celestial Lake City, Zhou Feng also sensed that more cultivators were wandering in the wild.


    This was something he could not feel in Heavenly Star City before.


    The vagabond cultivators were wandering in the wild to earn cultivation resources and do business without capital.


    In the cultivation world, the strong preyed on the weak.


    Not long after, Zhou Feng rode on Big Yellow and arrived at Koi Town with a row of Blackbear Fish behind him.


    ¡°Harvest the fish! Buy all kinds of spirit fish!¡±


    ¡°Water-Repellent Pills! Only one pill is needed!¡±


    ¡°Special bait! Special bait! It can attract all kinds of spirit fish!¡±


    All kinds of shouts entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears in an instant.


    Zhou Feng felt the smoke and fire that belonged exclusively to the cultivation world.


    Countless cultivators had set up stalls by the roadside, buying and selling all kinds of raw materials, even spiritual artifacts.


    This was really the first time he had seen such a scene.


    ¡°Eh? Brother, are you selling the Blackbear Fish behind you? My prices are the best in Koi Town!¡±


    Before Zhou Feng reached the entrance of the town, someone approached him.


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to take the Blackbear Fish out of his storage ring, so he had tied them all with a rope and had Big Yellow drag them.


    The merchants who specialized in buying Blackbear Fish naturally surrounded him as soon as they saw business.


    As for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, it was in the fish basket tied around his waist.


    He naturally did this to attract some attention.


    If Zhao Qianxing hadn¡¯t lied, many forces in the vicinity should be looking to purchase the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    If someone saw the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, they would probably take the initiative to chat with him.


    Although doing so might attract some unscrupulous people, it didn¡¯t matter. Zhou Feng did it on purpose.


    Compared to the normal way of obtaining Spirit Stones, he preferred them to be delivered directly to his door.


    His current cultivation base was completely inconsistent with his actual battle prowess. Anyway, if someone were greedy, Zhou Feng would teach them a lesson.


    If he attracted enemies that he couldn¡¯t deal with in the end, he would at most throw away the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    If he really couldn¡¯t handle it, he would waste a chance to be reborn.


    Zhou Feng had already thought of everything.


    ¡°Don¡¯t listen to him. He¡¯s the darkest one here!¡±


    As soon as the person in front of him finished speaking, other people immediately chimed in.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt a hand touching the fish basket at his waist during this time.


    This action was very subtle, but he and Big Yellow immediately noticed that something was wrong ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow suddenly barked, then turned around and stared at a person.


    Zhou Feng did not hesitate and threw a


    punch.


    However, he did not use his full strength. He still had to ¡®fish¡¯, so he could not scare off the potential fish.


    Even so, this punch was terrifying enough. Ear-piercing screeches erupted from all around, and the air was blown away.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden attack also frightened many people.


    The one who was most surprised was probably Tuoba Tai.


    ¡®This person actually noticed my movements!?¡±

 Chapter 360 - The Situation Wasnt Right

    Chapter 360 The Situation Wasn¡¯t Right


    Since Zhou Feng had discovered Tuoba Tai¡¯s movements, the first thought in his mind was to escape quickly.


    As a core disciple of the Starseizer Sect, Tuoba Tai might not have any other abilities, but his escape speed was top-notch.


    Tuoba Tai instantly turned into an afterimage and disappeared from Koi Town.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch instantly missed.


    ¡®So fast!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised by such speed.


    Moreover, that person left Koi Town.


    It was impossible to leave the town to look for someone directly.


    It could be said that this person was definitely good, which was why he made a move at the entrance.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction wasn¡¯t fast enough, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish on his waist might have been stolen.


    Zhou Feng patted Big Yellow¡¯s head and asked, ¡°Big Yellow, did you memorize that person¡¯s smell?¡±


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow cried out with certainty. The smell of that person had been recorded in his mind.


    As long as Big Yellow was willing, finding that person should not be a problem.


    The Mountain Spirit Hounds¡¯ sense of smell was uber-sensitive. Big Yellow¡¯s innate ability seemed to have enhanced its sense of smell.


    It was not difficult to find Tuoba Tai in the crowd.


    ¡°Look! In that fish basket¡­¡±


    ¡°This¡­ is floating in the air?¡± ¡°Celestial Spiritmirror Fish? Really?¡±


    The people who were scared just now were all focused on the fish basket on Zhou Feng¡¯s waist.


    No one had noticed it before.


    But the person who had just escaped was clearly planning to steal the fish basket hanging on Zhou Feng¡¯s waist.


    One wouldn¡¯t know if they didn¡¯t look at it, but one would be shocked if they did.


    Wasn¡¯t the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish in this fish basket the talk of the town recently?


    ¡°What? Celestial Spiritmirror Fish? Who? Who has it?¡±


    ¡°Over there? Over there?¡±


    II


    11


    Countless people instantly surrounded Zhou Feng, and almost all of their gazes were fixed on the fish basket.


    Among them, there was no lack of malicious gazes.


    In this instant, he was like a little white rabbit surrounded by a pack of wolves.


    Although no one said anything, they all knew what was going on.


    They immediately surrounded Zhou Feng. Some of them were even very close to him, only a few steps away from Zhou Feng.


    Facing the crowd that was closing in on them, Big Yellow appeared to be a little uneasy.


    Its sharp fangs were slowly revealed.


    However, this was not enough to stop these people. If it was not because they were afraid of being attacked by other people, some of them would have already been unable to hold themselves back.


    Zhou Feng did not expect this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to have such a great attraction effect.


    It caused him to fall into a predicament in an instant.


    Could this be considered a crime for possessing a treasure?


    However, there was nothing he could do. An ordinary spirit pet bag could not contain the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    If he were to put it in forcefully, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish would probably be suffocated to death.


    Therefore, he could only put it in the fish basket.


    ¡°I wonder if this brother can part with it?¡±


    ¡°Yes! Can you part with it? I will definitely give you a satisfactory price here!¡±


    ¡°Yes! Yes!¡±


    After one person took the lead, many people followed suit.


    The fervor in their eyes didn¡¯t diminish in the slightest.


    ¡°Back off!¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    No one in the surrounding area moved a single step. Instead, their faces revealed traces of ridicule.


    ¡°This type of spiritual object isn¡¯t something a puny Purple Mansion cultivator like you can covet!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    The atmosphere became a bit strange.


    This was because more and more people were surrounding Zhou Feng, and the cultivation level that Zhou Feng had displayed was only at the Purple Mansion realm.


    This meant that any random Divine Ability expert would be able to snatch the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    If it weren¡¯t because some people were worried about whether Zhou Feng had a background or not, they probably wouldn¡¯t have been able to hold themselves back long


    ago.


    The law of the jungle was vividly displayed in the wild.


    As long as Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t a Jade Sword disciple, then it wouldn¡¯t be a problem for some people.


    Even if Zhou Feng was a Jade Sword disciple, it wasn¡¯t impossible to make a move as long as the item was enough to move people¡¯s hearts,


    At worst, they could escape to another holy land.


    ¡°Big Yellow!¡±


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes before his terrifying Blood Qi erupted, and the Invincible Avatar materialized.


    Others might not dare to make a move against so many people, but he was not afraid. Under the current situation, if he did not show his strength, these people would probably think he was a 3-year-old child carrying a gold brick on the street.


    ¡°How dare you!¡±


    ¡°You actually dare to make a move!¡±


    ¡°Make a move!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say a word and suddenly made a move, instantly shocking many people.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng was alone while plenty of cultivators surrounded him.


    How could he dare to make a move? He was a mere Purple Mansion cultivator.


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s full power, the person who had been secretly threatening him was instantly blasted apart.


    This person was also at the Purple Mansion realm, but just now, he had been standing by the side and menacing him.


    He had thought that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able to notice him hiding in the crowd.


    But in reality, he had found out all of the people who had just threatened him.


    ¡°You! Are you courting death!¡±


    ¡°How dare you?¡±


    The eyes of the people who had just surrounded him widened as if they hadn¡¯t expected Zhou Feng¡¯s aura to be so terrifying.


    And it was sufficiently vicious. As soon as he attacked, a person¡¯s life was taken.


    Naturally, many people who wanted to make a move joined the fray, and spiritual artifacts rose one after another. A great battle broke out with Zhou Feng taking the lead in making a move.


    Originally, many people still had some misgivings, but now that Zhou Feng had made a move, the misgivings in their hearts were immediately gone.


    That was the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. If they managed to obtain it, they would at least not have to worry about selling it to the Xia Clan for cultivation resources.


    Moreover, there were so many people around them, so they might as well go all out.


    Many people had the idea of going all out to take down Zhou Feng.


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had encountered such a robbery on the street.


    Previously, because he had been in some big cities, he had not witnessed the cruelty between cultivators.


    Now, he could finally experience it.


    The golden Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body condensed into a layer of armor, protecting his body.


    The strange avatar behind him also displayed the power it should have.


    Spiritual artifact? Smashed with one punch!


    Every time Zhou Feng swung his fist, many people in the surroundings felt their hearts palpitate, and they felt suffocated. The powerful pressure made it difficult for them to breathe.


    Zhou Feng had already killed four people in a row.


    All of them were people who had previously threatened him.


    And Zhou Feng himself was indeed not injured at all. Even Big Yellow was not injured.


    Big Yellow¡¯s body was not inferior to the surrounding cultivators.


    Just now, it had even bitten a person.


    ¡°Oh no! Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve kicked an iron plate! Hurry up and run!¡±


    Almost nobody had expected such a situation.


    Among the many people who had surrounded Zhou Feng just now, a trace of greed had actually risen in their hearts.


    They had all gathered together, but they immediately shrank back after witnessing Zhou Feng¡¯s ruthless methods. No matter how good the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was, they had to be alive to enjoy it!


    Even if they managed to snatch the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, they might end up like Zhou Feng, being besieged.


    Would they be able to protect the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?


    After many people woke up, they didn¡¯t say much and immediately fled.

 Chapter 361 - Devious Idea

    Chapter 361 Devious Idea


    ¡°This is crazy!¡±


    Zhou Feng silently picked up the storage bags and rings on the ground.


    He didn¡¯t expect these people to be so crazy just because of a fish. But it was also good. This way, he could also get some Spirit Stones openly.


    The people who could buy spirit fish here should have a lot of wealth.


    In this way, the gap in his Spirit Stones could be filled.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t bother about the blood clots on the ground. He rode on Big Yellow and entered Koi Town.


    The guards who had just witnessed everything could only watch as Zhou Feng walked into Koi Town.


    Even after his figure disappeared, they faintly heaved a sigh of relief.


    Where did all these ruthless people come from?


    IT


    Although Koi Town was just a simple gathering hub, it was very prosperous inside. Relying on the large number of resources provided by the Celestial Lake, this small town did not lack in popularity.


    The streets were all made of solid black stones, and on both sides were shops.


    Because of the noise, the people in the town had no idea what was happening at the entrance.


    Zhou Feng rode Big Yellow, his huge size attracting a lot of people¡¯s strange gazes. After all, no one in Koi Town would be so high-profile.


    It was not a good thing to be too high-profile here.


    Many cultivators focused on those who had just earned Spirit Stones, and they specialized in killing and robbing people.


    Compared to fishing slowly, most cultivators liked to get something for nothing.


    Zhou Feng strolled around and found a shop that specialized in purchasing Blackbear Fish.


    First, he dealt with all the Blackbear Fish he had.


    He was in a hurry to deal with them, so he didn¡¯t haggle over the price and sold the Blackbear Fish at 5,000 Spirit Stones per fish.


    In an instant, he earned tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.


    This speed wasn¡¯t considered slow, but it was still a lot slower compared to the resources he consumed.


    Zhou Feng planned to improve his physical body properly before breaking through to the Divine Ability realm.


    There was no other way! Although he didn¡¯t intend to follow the body-refining path, the various passive skills he had obtained all pushed him in that direction.


    He could only improve his physical body.


    After that, he would cultivate some offensive techniques. His lack of offensive techniques had always been a serious problem.


    However, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t do anything about it.


    After all, vagabond cultivators were vagabond cultivators. They couldn¡¯t compare to the disciples of large sects.


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t so picky now. He wanted to see if there were any suitable techniques that he could cultivate first.


    Then, he would slowly improve them. What if he could draw a new passive technique that could improve his cultivation?


    For example, a passive skill like directly increasing the level of a skill.


    This was not impossible.


    Thinking of this, he looked at the progress bar on the skill panel.


    He had just killed a lot of people and reversed the destiny of so many people. The progress bar should have increased quite a bit!


    ¡®Almost! It should be almost full in a few days!¡¯


    It was a pity that the progress bar was almost full. He would be able to draw a new passive skill in a few days.


    Zhou Feng had a feeling that as his passive skills increased, it was getting harder and harder to obtain new passive skills.


    This was not an illusion. Although he could still draw a new passive skill every once in a while, the interval was longer than the previous few days.


    Only if he killed some geniuses and obtained a large amount of destiny power would he be able to gain all kinds of passive powers faster.


    ¡®Forget it. Let¡¯s find a place to settle down first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not want to think about those troublesome things.


    He found a place to settle down, rested for a while, and then waited for others to find him.


    If his guess was correct, the entire Koi Town should know that he had a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    His plan was to sit on the fishing platform and wait for these people to come knocking on his door.


    Indeed, it was just as he thought.


    Now, many people knew that someone had caught a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    ¡°Did you hear? Something big happened just now at the town entrance!¡±


    ¡°What? What big thing?¡±


    ¡°Someone caught a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish! And I heard that a group of people surrounded them at the entrance! Guess what happened in the end?¡±


    ¡°What happened? Tell me quickly!¡±


    Some well-informed people recounted what had happened at the entrance.


    ¡°That ruthless fellow attacked, killed five people in a row, and then rode a big yellow dog into Koi Town!¡±


    ¡°What? Riding a big yellow dog? I think I saw this person just now!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! That person lives in Koi Town now!¡±


    The entire Koi Town was instantly thrown into chaos.


    After receiving the news, most people¡¯s first thought was naturally to get their hands on that Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    Putting aside the opportunity to become the Xia Clan¡¯s future son-in-law, just the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was also very valuable.


    Moreover, only a few large clans knew its specific use. Otherwise, the Xia Clan wouldn¡¯t have proposed this condition as the first test of the son-in-law recruitment.


    Many clans that were rooted in the Celestial Lake had been passing down their heritage for at least a few hundred years, or even over 1,000 years.


    Of course, they had caught the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish in such a long time.


    As long as a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was properly raised, it would be easy for them to live for a few hundred years.


    They could even reproduce with the Xia Clan¡¯s techniques.


    It was said that they were giving everyone a chance, but in fact, they were targeting the various large clans.


    Taking advantage of this limelight, Zhou Feng announced he would sell the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    In any case, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was a means to exchange resources to him.


    Now that he had released the news, he naturally wanted to let people compete and reap the benefits.


    ¡°What? Where is this person?¡±


    After Xia Bo learned what had transpired, the first thing he did was to find out where Zhou Feng was.


    A vagabond cultivator had actually caught a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. This was a good opportunity.


    If he could trick this person into offering the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, then he could send the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to his clan.


    Then this contribution might allow him to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Xia Bo¡¯s thoughts instantly became active.


    How should he make this person obediently offer the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?


    ¡°If it¡¯s really just a vagabond cultivator, perhaps I can give it a try. But for the sake of safety, I¡¯d better investigate it first!¡±


    Xia Bo was very experienced in dealing with vagabond cultivators.


    If Zhou Feng was really one of those ignorant vagabond cultivators, he could easily coax and tempt him with the possibility of becoming the Xia Clan¡¯s son-in-law. At that time, he would obediently hand over the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    After that, it would be much simpler!


    Xia Bo also knew that the risk would be extremely great if he did this.


    If he were careless, it would be very easy to get burned, but the temptation of being able to break through to the Divine Ability realm was too great.


    As for vagabond cultivators, they were known to be hard to bully. If this matter were to spread, it would damage the Xia Clan¡¯s reputation.


    However, if he could get his hands on the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, this bit of reputation would be nothing.

 Chapter 362 - A Trace of Celestial Qi

    Chapter 362 A Trace of Celestial Qi


    After resting for two days, Zhou Feng made another incense stick.


    After that, he ordered Big Yellow to guard the door while he once again entered a state of wandering in the great void.


    This time, Zhou Feng seemed to be more at ease.


    His entire person became more and more relaxed as his soul, mind, and essence were combined together.


    His soul seemed to be drifting in the void.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi continued to flow, slowly imprinting itself in his heart bit by bit.


    In reality, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi began to circulate restlessly, while the surrounding Spiritual Qi began to gather continuously with his physical body as the center.


    He needed a large amount of Spiritual Qi to transform his physical body right now.


    Fortunately, the Crystal Warm Jade that Zhou Feng had been wearing around his neck had already stored a large amount of pure Spiritual Qi.


    It was enough for Zhou Feng to cultivate.


    A wisp of Great Void Primordial Qi condensed again, and during the process of condensing, his soul was tempered.


    This was a very mysterious feeling as if his entire person had turned into a world.


    He was using this world¡¯s perspective to look around.


    Great Void Primordial Qi! The Great Void Primordial Art was mind-blowing.


    It was still difficult for Zhou Feng to comprehend it within a short period, but he improved a lot this time.


    ¡°Not bad! The next time should be the time to comprehend the Great Void Primordial Art!¡±


    Zhou Feng slowly opened his eyes. This time, the comprehension was somewhat beyond his expectations. According to the previous progress, it should still require quite a bit of time to get the basics of the Great Void Primordial Art.


    But now, it seemed that he would be able to master it the next time he entered into the great void.


    His aptitude was not as bad as he had imagined.


    Truth be told, his aptitude had improved after bathing in the immortal lake.


    In addition, the Human Emperor Scriptures had the function of improving one¡¯s aptitude.


    Compared to the beginning, Zhou Feng could be considered talented now.


    Still, there was something wrong with this speed of comprehension.


    ¡°Eh? What¡¯s going on?¡±


    He glanced at the fish basket beside him as he thought about it.


    He noticed that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was now on the verge of death, completely devoid of its previous vitality.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? This Celestial Spiritmirror Fish can¡¯t be so weak, even if it¡¯s out of the water.


    ¡°It could still float in the air and even feed on Spiritual Qi a few minutes ago. Why is it like that now?¡±


    As if sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish showed traces of human-like fawning.


    It seemed to be saying, ¡°Don¡¯t kill me, I¡¯m very useful.¡±.


    ¡°Could it be¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes showed a trace of uncertainty.


    ¡°Was it because of you that I was in that state just now?¡±


    There was a trace of doubt in his tone.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish immediately nodded crazily upon hearing his question.


    What a high level of intelligence! It was actually able to communicate with him without any obstacles!


    This Celestial Spiritmirror Fish could not be sold if that was the case.


    That¡¯s right! The reason so many major forces were searching for Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was that it contained a trace of Celestial Qi.


    This trace of Celestial Qi could assist cultivators in their comprehension.


    Moreover, the more Celestial Spiritmirror Fish there were, the more Celestial Qi they would produce.


    Some experienced major forces would even build ponds that were filled with Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    Then, they would connect a spirit vein and supply a large amount of pure Spiritual Qi, slowly converting it into traces of Celestial Qi. This could be considered a true foundation of strength.


    No matter what it was, as long as it could help one comprehend the Dao, it would be a good thing.


    Although the Xia Clan was powerful, they lacked such a true foundation.


    That was why they used the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish as a condition for someone to become their son-in-law.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish had forcefully spat out a trace of Celestial Qi to survive and save its own life.


    It could feel that Zhou Feng did not care about it at all.


    Such an attitude was a very dangerous signal.


    According to the inherited memories of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, when these humans met their race, they should be like licking dogs and should give them all kinds of treats.


    Although they would lose their freedom, their lives should be safe.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s behavior was different from that of the humans in the inherited memories.


    Only the Demons didn¡¯t care about their kind at all. After catching them, they would directly swallow them whole.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish thought that its situation was perilous based on the inherited memories.


    That was why it tried so hard to please Zhou Feng Now, it seemed that the effect was quite good.


    This human in front of it began to value it.


    ¡°Then how long will it take for you to recover and do what you did just now?¡±


    Zhou Feng calculated in his heart. It would be a huge loss if he sold this kind of help and turned it into Spirit Stones.


    The heaven-defying ability to assist one¡¯s comprehension was not something that Spirit Stones could compare to.


    When the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish heard his words, it immediately flipped its belly over and stopped for a long time before flipping back over.


    It seemed to be saying that it would take a very, very long time.


    However, Zhou Feng could not guess exactly how long it would take.


    Although this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was very smart, it could not speak, so there was still a little problem in communicating with it.


    But no matter what, he would not sell the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish now!


    ¡°Oh right! Don¡¯t I have the passive Spirit Pet Heart? As long as the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish becomes my spirit pet, then I will know what¡¯s going on!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly remembered the passive skill that he had obtained not long ago.


    Spirit Pet Heart: You and your spirit pet will be more in sync. At the same time, your spirit


    pet


    can inherit 1% of all your attributes. (Limit: 1)


    Although only one spirit pet could inherit Zhou Feng¡¯s attributes, he could at least communicate with any other spirit pet.


    Taking in a few more spirit pets to share the pressure was also part of Zhou Feng¡¯s plan.


    As mentioned before, being alone was a very dangerous thing in the cultivation world.


    Therefore, it was a very good idea to have a few more spirit pets to aid him.


    Zhou Feng directly asked the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, ¡°How about becoming my spirit pet?¡±


    Naturally, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was afraid of being eaten. As long as it became Zhou Feng¡¯s spirit pet, it should be spared from being eaten. Thus, it nodded vehemently.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Zhou Feng forced out a drop of his blood and contracted the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    This was the simplest spiritual pet contract, and both parties were basically equal.


    There were no obligations and responsibilities. If the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish didn¡¯t obey in the future, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able to punish it through the contract.


    After all, he couldn¡¯t get his hands on an even more advanced contract method, so he could only use this kind of cheap goods.


    Nevertheless, it didn¡¯t matter. If this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish betrayed him, Zhou Feng would destroy its physical body. This small fish didn¡¯t look like a fighter.


    It was only a matter of one punch, so there was no need to worry so much.


    After a while, he felt closer to the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish and could communicate with it telepathically.

 Chapter 363 - Danger!

    Chapter 363 Danger!


    Relying on the Spirit Pet Heart, Zhou Feng communicated smoothly with the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    ¡°You need to rest for a year to produce a wisp of Celestial Qi?¡±


    He quickly got the information he wanted to know the most.


    That was how long it took for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to produce a wisp of Celestial Qi.


    Under normal circumstances, a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish would take about a year to produce a wisp of Celestial Qi.


    Moreover, this speed was at the expense of its own growth.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish needed to improve themselves.


    It was precisely because of this that those large factions would build ponds.


    They used spirit veins to supply Spirit Qi, allowing the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to give birth to Celestial Qi while constantly growing.


    ¡°Do I need to use pure Spirit Qi?¡±


    CO


    ¡°If there is a better living environment, then the Celestial Qi will recover faster!¡± Zhou Feng understood everything in a short while.


    He had pure Spiritual Qi, and the Crystal Warm Jade on his neck could provide it.


    As for the spiritual artifact for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to live in, he didn¡¯t have one.


    That¡¯s right! For a spirit fish of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish¡¯s level, there was a special spiritual artifact to rear it.


    Speaking of which, it was the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish that told him this.


    ¡°In other words, I¡¯m still short of Spirit Stones!¡±


    When Zhou Feng thought of this, he felt a headache.


    Vagabond cultivators were indeed fraught with difficulties.


    ¡°Let¡¯s not think too much and leave this place first.¡±


    Previously, he had spread the news of selling Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    Many cultivators would definitely be attracted here, and he didn¡¯t plan to sell the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish now.


    In order to reduce the trouble, it was best to leave this place.


    Moreover, during the time he was in Koi Town, he learned many things.


    He basically couldn¡¯t catch many truly valuable spirit fish in this area.


    If he wanted to earn Spirit Stones, he had to go to the Xia Clan and a few other big clans¡¯ territories.


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to escape again, Big Yellow suddenly began to bark fiercely.


    A few strange auras were approaching, and this was Big Yellow warning him.


    Xia Bo had already investigated thoroughly.


    Zhou Feng was a lucky vagabond cultivator who had caught the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish not far from Koi Town.


    Due to Xia Bo¡¯s efforts, he found the place Zhou Feng had caught the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    There were a few corpses there.


    Although Zhou Feng had killed those who wanted to harm him, he didn¡¯t deal with their corpses. Thus, Xia Bo found the necessary clues.


    In the end, for the sake of safety, Xia Bo also spent some money to verify whether Zhou Feng had any major forces behind him.


    After asking around, he concluded Zhou Feng was a genuine vagabond cultivator.


    Thus, he did not hesitate and immediately went to his door.


    The other forces naturally did not want to be left behind upon learning of Xia Bo¡¯s actions. They immediately gathered outside Zhou Feng¡¯s residence.


    ¡°You are?¡±


    When Zhou Feng walked out of the residence, he saw Big Yellow had bared his teeth. There were also a few people with smiles on their faces.


    ¡°I am the steward of the Xia Clan. I heard that you have the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish? It seems that you have a high possibility of becoming the son-in-law of the Xia Clan!¡±


    Xia Bo was the first to speak and hinted that Zhou Feng might become the son-in-law of the Xia Clan.


    It must be known that Fairy Chunqiu of the Xia Clan was a true goddess in the eyes of the young cultivators nearby.


    Xia Bo did this because he wanted to use the reputation of the eldest daughter of his clan to awe Zhou Feng.


    Then, he would get his hands on the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    ¡®Shameless!¡¯


    ¡°That dog! How dare he cheat!?¡¯


    ¡®Damn it!¡¯


    As soon as Xia Bo said this, the other stewards cursed in their hearts.


    ¡°Steward Xia, are you saying that you don¡¯t want to give him the Spirit Stones? Do you want to take away the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish by relying on Fairy Lingbo¡¯s name? Aren¡¯t you looking down on him a little too much?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Don¡¯t tell me Steward Xia thinks this little brother is a fool?¡±


    IIII


    The counterattack began very quickly, with the other clans¡¯ stewards making sarcastic comments.


    Xia Bo¡¯s expression turned ugly.


    Originally, he did plan to do this. He would borrow the fame of Fairy Lingbo and the might of the Xia Clan to coax and deceive Zhou Feng to hand over the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish obediently.


    Even if he couldn¡¯t get it for free, he would pay the smallest price to obtain the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    However, now that the others had caught wind of his plans, he would have to pay some blood.


    As for snatching it, he couldn¡¯t do it for the time being


    After all, Zhou Feng was willing to sell the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. If he still wanted to snatch it under such circumstances, it would be a huge blow to the Xia Clan¡¯s reputation.


    Of course, it was mainly because so many forces were watching. Even if Xia Bo wanted to make a move, it wasn¡¯t realistic.


    ¡°How is that possible? Everyone knows the strength of our Xia Clan. No matter what, our Xia Clan will always offer the highest price!¡±


    In order to hide the ugly expression on his face, Xia Bo wore an extremely proud facade.


    Zhou Feng, who had sharp senses, could sense the ugly expression on Xia Bo¡¯s face.


    He looked directly at the steward of the Xia Clan.


    From his appearance, Xia Bo looked dignified. His handsome face had a hint of shrewdness.


    One look and one could tell that he was a calculative person.


    However, Zhou Feng felt a sense of displeasure.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, but someone has already reserved the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was not for sale. Instead, he said that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish had already been reserved.


    He was afraid that if he said that it was not for sale and kept it, these people would become angry out of humiliation.


    Zhou Feng was not as reckless as he was at the beginning. Instead, he would play some tricks.


    ¡°What!? It¡¯s reserved? Who?¡±


    ¡°What price is it?¡±


    ¡°¡®Who is it?¡±


    Everyone, including Xia Bo, instantly became anxious.


    This was the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, a first-class rare spirit item. Moreover, the secret of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was only known to them.


    No one else should know the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish¡¯s functionality as it had always been a well-guarded secret.


    Only a few forces knew about it, and the Xia Clan didn¡¯t know about it at first.


    However, the news had been leaked for some reason, and the Xia Clan learned the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish¡¯s secret.


    In the end, the other clans had no choice but to pull the Xia Clan into the alliance.


    They sealed the secret of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish together. In the eyes of others, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was only a very rare type of spirit fish.


    It was not much different from the other spirit fish.


    ¡°No comment. Big Yellow, let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to say anything else. He rode on Big Yellow and left Koi Town.


    Originally, Xia Bo wanted to stop Zhou Feng from leaving


    But he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and stopped in his tracks.


    The stewards of the other clans did not stop him either. Instead, they looked at each other tacitly.


    Although they did not speak, they knew what they were thinking just by looking at each other.


    In order to prevent the secret of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish from spreading, they had to get rid of Zhou Feng for everyone¡¯s benefit.


    They would have to carry this matter in a sufficiently secretive manner. It was best not to be discovered by others.


    The stewards immediately communicated and hatched a plan.


    As expected of a vagabond cultivator-he was farsighted and ignorant. He had no idea that his Purple Mansion realm cultivation alone would not be enough to guard this spirit fish.

 Chapter 364 - Big Yellows Tracking Ability

    Chapter 364 Big Yellow¡¯s Tracking Ability


    Although Zhou Feng had already left ahead of time, he did not feel that the sense of crisis had disappeared. On the contrary, as he got further away from Koi Town, the sense of danger was getting stronger and stronger.


    Compared to Koi Town, which had a large population, it was obvious that they had no scruples when fighting in the wild.


    And this was also what he had in mind.


    His cultivation was extremely confusing because his strength and cultivation were completely incompatible.


    Zhou Feng planned to wait for the big fish to take the bait and chop them on the cutting board.


    These people must know the use of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, so they would definitely not let him off the hook.


    As such, he would be able to use this opportunity to make a windfall.


    Compared to slowly earning Spirit Stones, this method of earning Spirit Stones was still faster.


    Still, the risk was also higher.


    If one were careless, it would be easy to put themselves in a dangerous situation.


    However, Zhou Feng thought that since he had a chance to be reborn, it wouldn¡¯t matter if he was a little reckless.


    A horse without grass wouldn¡¯t grow fat, and a man without wealth wouldn¡¯t be rich. If he slowly accumulated resources and cultivated, his cultivation speed would still be slow.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had learned that he could obtain destiny power by altering one¡¯s destiny and could speed up the skill panel¡¯s progress bar.


    This fishing enforcement could just speed up the acquisition of passive skills.


    It was killing two birds with one stone. It was totally worth it.


    Riding on Big Yellow, Zhou Feng headed straight to a place where there was no one.


    Suddenly, Big Yellow seemed to smell something.


    ¡°What? The person who ambushed me at the entrance is near?¡±


    To his surprise, Big Yellow detected Tuoba Tai¡¯s scent.


    Although this scent was very weak, it could not escape Big Yellow¡¯s nostrils.


    It seemed that this person hadn¡¯t been away for long.


    He naturally wouldn¡¯t let go of the person who had ambushed him in Koi Town.


    He immediately ordered Big Yellow to start tracking him.


    Following that, Big Yellow relied on his sense of smell to follow Tuoba Tai.


    Because of Zhou Feng¡¯s actual battle fishing plan, he couldn¡¯t hide his tracks so that the people following them could catch up.


    On the other side, Tuoba Tai was casually hurrying on his way. ¡°What bad luck. That person should not be as simple as he looks. I actually provoked such a person for no reason!¡± Tuoba Tai was already feeling some regret in his heart,


    As a disciple of the Starseizer Sect, he was extremely familiar with the teachings of the sect.


    He absolutely could not lay his hands on those freaks with astonishing potential.


    Once these freaks were offended, there would be great trouble in the future.


    The Starseizer Sect had once been considered a super sect, occupying a place in the Central Plains.


    At present, however, it was fragmented, with different branches scattered in various places.


    The reason for this situation was entirely because they had been too arrogant.


    They had been under the impression that their stealing and escaping techniques were the best in the world and had casually robbed plenty of sects.


    As such, they had provoked the anger of the masses, and those great Divine Ability cultivators had united, dealing them a fatal blow.


    That was why the Starseizer Sect had fallen to such a state.


    Tuoba Tai¡¯s branch had also summarized the experience of the Starseizer Sect¡¯s decline and formed one sect rule after another.


    Tuoba Tai had violated one of these rules.


    That Purple Mansion cultivator wasn¡¯t an ordinary person at all.


    ¡°I should have known long ago! How could anyone be an ordinary person if they could get their hands on the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish? My hands are really cheap!¡±


    Fortunately, it wasn¡¯t impossible to salvage


    this.


    Taking advantage of Zhou Feng not being able to react, Tuoba Tai had changed his appearance, planning to leave the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    He headed straight for the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Tuoba Tai was confident that Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have expected him to be so decisive.


    With the Starseizer Sect¡¯s inheritance, it was common for him to hide his tracks, so he had let down his guard.


    However, Tuoba Tai probably didn¡¯t expect that he would accidentally leave his scent behind and that Big Yellow would memorize


    it.


    Moreover, Big Yellow was rushing toward him.


    Although the Mountain Spirit Hound¡¯s battle prowess wasn¡¯t good, its stamina was top-notch.


    Zhou Feng rode on Big Yellow as fast as lightning, dashing toward Tuoba Tai¡¯s position.


    After a long distance of running, Big Yellow was still in high spirits and did not look tired at all.


    Zhou Feng experienced how good of a helper a spirit pet could be.


    He no longer needed to track the enemy and chase after them on his own anymore.


    This was too awesome!


    ¡°And there¡¯s also the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish that can produce Celestial Qi!¡±


    Upon thinking of the Celestial Qi, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but want to tame more spirit pets.


    It would be best if he could tame some auxiliary spirit pets while he was the main combatant.


    Compared to the main battle spirit pets, the auxiliary spirit pets like Big Yellow were much easier to feed and raise.


    In the case of battle spirit pets, one would need a mountain of resources to ensure their battle strength.


    Otherwise, they would be weak.


    On the other hand, support-type spirit pets Like Big Yellow were low-maintenance in terms of resources.


    ¡°It would be great if I could find Treasure Mice!¡±


    At this time, he could not help but think of the Qian father and daughter he had met in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    They seemed to have a Treasure Mouse with them.


    It would be much easier to search for spiritual items with such a spirit pet. ¡°What¡¯s going on? Someone is looking for trouble with me?¡±


    While Zhou Feng was considering whether to take in more spirit pets, Tuoba Tai¡¯s eyelids kept twitching


    He had a very bad feeling.


    Tuoba Tai trusted this bad feeling a lot.


    This was because the Starseizer Sect¡¯s inherited cultivation technique had the ability to increase one¡¯s sixth sense.


    He was a thief, so it was common for enemies to come looking for him. Hence, he needed to predict the danger that would descend upon him.


    ¡°That¡¯s impossible! I didn¡¯t offend that person either. I just arrived at the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory not too long ago.¡±


    Tuoba Tai couldn¡¯t understand who was looking for trouble with him.


    He had just arrived at the Jade Sword Holy Land and didn¡¯t have the time to make a move.


    The only time he had made a move was against Zhou Feng.


    After that failure, he had run away immediately.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t possibly catch up.


    Could it be because of something else?


    Although Tuoba Tai could sense the impending danger, he didn¡¯t know where the danger stemmed from or when it would arrive.


    The only thing he could do was to stay away from here.


    He had to keep moving and don¡¯t let the danger catch up but couldn¡¯t be too high-profile. Otherwise, he would be easily discovered.


    Thus, Tuoba Tai restrained his aura and hid in the forest.


    A shadow covered his body, hoping that he could avoid the following danger.


    He even smeared all kinds of pungent drugs on his body to conceal his smell.


    The smell, traces, Spiritual Qi residue, and other details were all concealed.


    Unfortunately, Tuoba Tai didn¡¯t know that it was precisely because he smeared those pungent drugs that Big Yellow was able to lock onto him.


    Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell had evolved to a terrifying level. Not to mention that his innate ability was related to smell.


    Among the many pungent smells, there was a trace of Tuoba Tai¡¯s remaining scent.


    Although it was very subtle, Big Yellow still detected it.


    This person was hiding his scent. Big Yellow was very smart, so he did not follow Tuoba Tai¡¯s scent.


    He still followed this pungent smell¡­

 Chapter 365 - The Former Starseizer Sect

    Chapter 365 The Former Starseizer Sect


    Generally speaking, the pungent smell on Tuoba Tai¡¯s body was a means to deal with a spirit beast like Big Yellow, which had a keen sense of smell.


    No matter what, the Starseizer Sect was a sect with a long history. They had experience in dealing with all kinds of situations.


    In fact, many seniors of the sect would record different strange things when they encountered them.


    This information would be put together and passed down to the next generation.


    This sort of behavior was considered a standard for a power that had a long history.


    What was even more ridiculous was that the few 10,000-year-old aristocratic families of the Central Plains had all sorts of knowledge imprinted in their bloodlines.


    Every time those aristocratic family members broke through to a new realm, they would be able to obtain a large amount of knowledge from their bloodlines.


    However, most of these were extremely secretive and weren¡¯t suitable to be recorded.


    Using bloodlines to pass down knowledge was much more reliable than using something to record it down.


    That was why the aristocratic families were becoming more and more exaggerated.


    They were constantly optimizing their bloodlines and imprinting knowledge into their bloodlines.


    With such methods, the more ancient the aristocratic families¡¯ inheritance was, the more terrifying it would be.


    The aristocratic families wouldn¡¯t slowly fall from grace.


    We went a little off-topic now¡­.


    Normally, Tuoba Tai¡¯s scent would be enough to stop Big Yellow.


    However, Big Yellow had inherited Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying attributes. This pungent smell might destroy Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell, but he could recover and track simultaneously, thanks to the recovery ability he had inherited from Zhou Feng.


    Perhaps even Zhou Feng himself did not expect that this so-called all-attribute inheritance included his passive skills.


    In other words, Big Yellow owned all of Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills but could show their might as he had inherited 1%.


    At this moment, Big Yellow endured the discomfort in his nose. His speed was not slower than before, however. Instead, he sped up.


    Suddenly, Big Yellow began to bark fiercely.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes lit up. He knew that the target was nearby.


    Tuoba Tai, who had been carefully hiding, was shocked.


    ¡®Barking? It shouldn¡¯t be looking for me, right?¡¯


    He had smeared a special drug all over his body, yet it was ineffective!?


    The big yellow-gold hound rushed toward him.


    Tuoba Tai was very familiar with the person on the back of the big hound because he had set his sights on him not long ago.


    ¡°Oh no!¡¯


    The moment he saw Zhou Feng, Tuoba Tai knew that he was exposed.


    Although he didn¡¯t know how ZHou Feng had managed to track him, there was only one thought in his mind: to escape quickly!


    Unfortunately, this thought had just appeared in Tuoba Tai¡¯s mind.


    Zhou Feng unleashed his full strength, and the Invincible Avatar appeared. Its terrifying power instantly suppressed Tuoba Tai.


    Tuoba Tai, who wasn¡¯t even at the Divine Ability realm, was unable to resist Zhou Feng¡¯s Invincible Avatar.


    That mountain-like aura penetrated deep into every bone in his body, making it difficult for him to escape.


    He couldn¡¯t even use the Starseizer Sect¡¯s unique technique, the Starseizer Steps.


    ¡®Damn it! I knew it! It¡¯s a pity my Starseizer Steps are incomplete, or else¡­¡¯


    Tuoba Tai¡¯s entire heart had turned cold.


    He had actually provoked a freakish monster.


    Both of them were at the Purple Mansion realm, but Tuoba Tai felt that this person could kill him with a flick of his finger.


    If the Starseizer Steps inherited by the sect weren¡¯t incomplete, he would be able to rely on the Starseizer Steps to break free from this avatar.


    He would directly step on the stars and leave.


    One had to know that the Starseizer Steps were one of the great divine abilities of the Starseizer Sect.


    This footwork involved the Spatial Dao. Once one succeeded in cultivating it, they could go anywhere in the world.


    The Starseizer Sect Leader had cultivated this divine ability to perfection.


    It made countless experts gnash their teeth in hatred, but there was nothing they could do.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! I was rude earlier!¡±


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying aura, Tuoba Tai didn¡¯t have the slightest bit of backbone. He directly admitted defeat and had no intention of resisting at all.


    This tactful look surprised Zhou Feng.


    Coincidentally, he was also somewhat interested in Tuoba Tai¡¯s escape and concealment methods.


    If he hadn¡¯t relied on Big Yellow, he might not have been able to find Tuoba Tai at all.


    Thus, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t make a move at the first moment.


    ¡°I¡¯m the 79th generation disciple of the Starseizer Sect. I made a move earlier on a whim. I already realized something was wrong and left at the first moment!


    ¡°But I didn¡¯t expect that in the end¡­¡±


    Tuoba Tai¡¯s face was filled with a bitter smile.


    He had been under the impression that he was careful enough, but he did not expect Zhou Feng to be so powerful.


    ¡®Starseizer Sect? The 79th generation disciple?¡¯


    Zhou Feng noted down these two useful pieces of information.


    In other words, this person in front of him was a sect disciple. Simply put, he had a foothold.


    Moreover, being able to pass down the legacy to the 79th generation also meant that this Starseizer Sect was a mighty force.


    It was impossible for it to pass down its legacy for such a long time without strength.


    What was this hinting at? Hinting that there was someone behind him? Asking him to be a little more careful when he attacked?


    Although Tuoba Tai hid it very well, Zhou Feng sensed the subtext.


    In reality, this was really what Tuoba Tai had no choice but to do. He could only pull the tiger¡¯s skin to protect his own little life.


    The Starseizer Sect had once been very powerful. However, after experiencing countless tribulations, the founder was long gone, and even the inheritance had been torn apart, Tuoba Tai was the only one left in the lineage of his branch.


    As for escaping while Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t paying attention?


    Tuoba Tai looked at Big Yellow, not daring to do so at all.


    ¡®Mountain Spirit Hound? Such a big one? Did its bloodline experience atavism?¡¯


    Tuoba Tai recognized Big Yellow at a glance as a Mountain Spirit Hound.


    As a sect that specialized in stealing, the Starseizer Sect¡¯s ability to distinguish between spiritual items and treasures was basic.


    After all, if they didn¡¯t even recognize the item, what would there be to steal!?


    Tuoba Tai was cooperating well, yet Zhou Feng¡¯s golden Blood Qi suddenly exploded.


    Kacha!


    The atomized golden Blood Qi transformed into a huge hammer and smashed into Tuoba Tai.


    Unprepared, Tuoba Tai only felt that many of the bones in his body had cracked.


    ¡°Answer my questions!¡±


    Zhou Feng once again entered the interrogation mode. In order to avoid accidents, he beat Tuoba Tai until he was heavily injured.


    This was both for safety reasons and to show off his might.


    ¡°Tell me about the Starseizer Sect.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first question was directed at the Starseizer Sect. He wanted to understand what kind of sect this was.


    ¡°The Starseizer Sect¡­¡±


    Faced with his question, Tuoba Tai didn¡¯t dare to hesitate at all. He started bragging about his own sect.


    Bragging about how powerful the Starseizer Sect had been in the past!


    Naturally, he did that to intimidate Zhou Feng so that he wouldn¡¯t act recklessly.


    Moreover, Tuoba Tai was not bragging with no capital. The Starseizer Sect was not considered weak even in the Central Plains.


    It was just that it had already declined!


    ¡°How many people are there in the Starseizer Sect now?¡±


    Listening to Tuoba Tai¡¯s description of the Starseizer Sect, Zhou Feng was not scared at all.


    If the Starseizer Sect was so awesome, why was Tuoba Tai pulling his hips so hard?


    It was not even comparable to the disciples of the holy lands of the Southern Border.


    Logically speaking, a sect that could establish itself in the Central Plains should be about the same as the Southern Border¡¯s three holy lands, no matter how bad it was.


    Tuoba Tai¡¯s down and out appearance didn¡¯t match the description of the Starseizer Sect at all.


    Tuoba Tai was slightly stuck when he heard this question.


    ¡°Uh, this¡­ There are too many people in the sect. I¡¯m not very sure.¡±

 Chapter 366 - Happy Draw

    Chapter 366 Happy Draw


    ¡°¡®Woof!¡±


    Tuoba Tai did not even need Zhou Feng to remind him of his guilty conscience. Big Yellow could sense it straight away.


    Other than its keen sense of smell, the Mountain Spirit Hound could also sense its opponent¡¯s state of mind.


    When he saw that Tuoba Tai was lying, Big Yellow barked.


    He bared his huge canine teeth, and along with its huge body, Big Yellow looked quite intimidating.


    Zhou Feng did not expect that Big Yellow would have the ability to tell if someone was lying


    This was great! He did not have to waste his energy after this.


    Kacha!


    Zhou Feng broke one of Tuoba Tai¡¯s hands.


    The breaking process was swift. Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not even change.


    He could remain calm, but Tuoba Tai sucked in a breath of cold air.


    The intense pain made Tuoba Tai sober up again. ¡°Answer,¡± Zhou Feng said indifferently.


    Big Yellow was also highly cooperative. The drool that dripped down his mouth even touched Tuoba Tai¡¯s body.


    ¡°There¡¯s no more! The Starseizer Sect has long been torn apart!¡±


    Tuoba Tai swallowed his saliva as he could feel Zhou Feng¡¯s killing intent. If he didn¡¯t answer truthfully, he would really die. Tuoba Tai didn¡¯t dare to hesitate at all. He told everything he knew.


    This included the Starseizer Sect being fragmented as well as the tragic situation of his own branch.


    Of course, when talking about the Starseizer Sect¡¯s inheritance, Tuoba Tai still played a trick during this process. After all, this was an orthodox inheritance.


    Unfortunately, Big Yellow saw through him. Big Yellow¡¯s judgment of whether the other party was lying was entirely based on intuition.


    It didn¡¯t care about the evidence at all. As long as one¡¯s cultivation level wasn¡¯t higher than Big Yellow¡¯s, Big Yellow¡¯s intuition would rarely be wrong.


    Tuoba Tai originally wanted to fight to the death.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng would hit him expressionlessly whenever Big Yellow indicated Tuoba Tai was lying.


    There weren¡¯t many intact bones in Tuoba Tai¡¯s body from the beginning until now.


    What made Tuoba Tai break down was that Zhou Feng took some ointment out of his storage ring.


    He was afraid that he would die directly if Zhou Feng applied it to him.


    Tuoba Tai, whose bones were all cracked, couldn¡¯t even commit suicide.


    In the end, he told everything he knew. He even wrote down the most important technique, the Starseizer Steps, more than ten times.


    ¡°There should be no mistake!¡±


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t the least bit moved as he looked at Tuoba Tai, whose tears and snot had turned into a lump while his blood was constantly seeping out.


    Who had asked this person to make a move on him?


    After checking the incomplete Starseizer Steps, Zhou Feng directly ended Tuoba Tai¡¯s life.


    It was impossible to let him go. Both sides had already formed an enmity.


    If he let Tuoba Tai go now, he would be letting the tiger return to the mountain, causing trouble for himself.


    Not to mention that he had seized the Starseizer Sect inheritance.


    This was a great enmity that would not rest until one of them died. Naturally, he could not let him live.


    To be honest, even Zhou Feng himself did not expect it.


    His luck was actually so good he managed to obtain a top-notch incomplete divine ability.


    These incomplete Starseizer Steps were the Starseizer Sect¡¯s ultimate skill.


    Although it was incomplete, it was still very powerful. Zhou Feng could completely cultivate it.


    The main thing was that the price of obtaining it was almost zero.


    Finally, he got his hands on the first cultivation technique that was on par with the Human Emperor Scriptures. Although Zhou Feng had obtained many techniques and arts before, those were all too low-level.


    They were simply not worthy of his strength. Even cultivating them was a waste of time.


    He might as well rely on his own pure Blood Qi to fight.


    There was no other way! Vagabond cultivators led miserable lives.


    There were no inheritances, no techniques, and even cultivation resources were hard to obtain.


    ¡°Starseizer Sect! Some large sects that are down and out are quite good targets!¡± The example in front of him caused Zhou Feng to suddenly place his attention on the declining large sects and aristocratic families.


    After all, not all factions¡¯ inheritances could be passed down.


    A considerable portion of the large factions had declined due to various reasons.


    Other similar factions would then wipe them out.


    And some of these large factions should still have some remaining branches.


    Although these factions had already declined or disappeared, the cultivation methods that they had once cultivated might still be passed down.


    Zhou Feng felt that he could pay attention to this aspect.


    This should be the easiest way to obtain top-tier cultivation techniques compared to other methods.


    While Zhou Feng was still deep in thought, Big Yellow¡¯s ears suddenly perked up.


    This instantly snapped Zhou Feng back to reality. He had many followers behind him, and now was not the time to be in a daze.


    After obtaining the Starseizer Steps, Zhou Feng was not in the mood to play any fishing games.


    He immediately restrained his aura and rode on Big Yellow to flee.


    ¡°What? The traces disappeared? How could it be so sudden?¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no aura or trace at all. There¡¯s only this corpse in front of us!¡±


    ¡°Damn it! How could we have lost him?¡±


    The steward of the other clans, led by Xia Bo, looked at Tuoba Tai¡¯s corpse with a somewhat vexed expression.


    Originally, they had planned to stay away from Koi Town to prevent others from discovering their actions.


    This was because, other than their clans, some cultivators had their eyes on Zhou Feng.


    In any case, Zhou Feng was only a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    There were three Divine Ability cultivators amongst them. No matter what, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able to escape from their grasp.


    Therefore, they slowly trailed behind Zhou Feng and shook off the others.


    However, this perfect plan unexpectedly met with an accident.


    The target suddenly disappeared, and the only thing that could be found was the corpse in front of them.


    ¡°Could it be that someone attacked first?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s very likely!¡±


    ¡°What should we do now?¡±


    The eyes of the stewards immediately revealed a look of distrust.


    They were all wondering if someone else had made the first move.


    It was not impossible. It was totally worth it for a clan to dispatch a few Divine Ability cultivators for a single Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    However, it was not a good idea to doubt each other now.


    They could only choose to continue returning.


    They had already memorized Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance. As long as he reappeared, they would definitely be able to catch him.


    Furthermore, there were only a few settlements nearby. No matter what, Zhou Feng would definitely appear again.


    The wilderness was not as safe as they had imagined


    It was impossible to give up.


    One more Celestial Spiritmirror Fish would be able to add a trace of Celestial Qi.


    This would add a trace of Celestial Qi to the clan¡¯s foundation.


    On this side, the Xia Bo did not give up on pursuing Zhou Feng.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng chose another place to study the Starseizer Steps he had just obtained.


    Just like last time, he created a cave.


    Then, he made all sorts of arrangements and had Big Yellow guard the entrance. As for himself, he was in the innermost part of the cave.


    ¡®Oh right! I stole the inheritance of the Starseizer Sect just now. This must have produced a lot of destiny power/ This means that I can draw new passive skills again! Zhou Feng opened the skill panel and immediately found that the progress bar was full.


    He could happily draw a passive skill

 Chapter 367 - A Miracle

    Chapter 367 A Miracle


    Zhou Feng immediately gave the order to draw a new passive skill.


    He hoped that the passive skills this time would continue to be powerful.


    This was because the first few passive skills were very useful, directly increasing his battle prowess.


    The stack of several passive skills caused Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess to increase rapidly.


    And it was precisely these passive skills that allowed him to fight against those above his level continuously.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Body-Generated Fragrance: Your body will emit a unique fragrance, Charm +1.


    Zhou Feng was instantly disappointed when he saw this skill.


    Although he knew that it was impossible to obtain heaven-defying passive skills every time he drew a passive skill, it was a little too much this time!


    Body-generated fragrance? Wasn¡¯t that equivalent to wearing a perfume that didn¡¯t dissipate?


    As a man, what could he do with this body-generated fragrance passive skill!?


    Moreover, this was even a negative effect on him. This kind of unique fragrance would very likely expose his whereabouts.


    ¡°It¡¯s charm again!¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed. This passive skill was disappointing


    At least its charm bonus somewhat made up for this.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding of the magical use of charm was that it was a cheap and easy way to leave a good impression on others.


    This had its drawbacks and advantages.


    The advantage was naturally that it was easier to make friends and leave a good impression.


    Especially when contracting spirit beasts, charm was very important.


    Why was the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish so obedient, other than Zhou Feng¡¯s strength suppressing it?


    It was probably because of his high charm which made the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish willingly form a contract with him.


    Speaking of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, Zhou Feng also had a bit of a headache.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish still had no place to settle down and could only float behind him.


    Fortunately, the Crystal Warm Jade could provide enough Spiritual Qi, so the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was not so restless.


    However, the living environment of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish urgently needed to be changed.


    Now that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish fish was his spirit pet, he naturally could not ignore it like before.


    ¡°There really is a fragrance!¡±


    In the end, Zhou Feng could only helplessly accept this reality.


    This passive skill had already been drawn out, and there was no way to return it, so he could only accept it.


    He even deliberately sniffed his body.


    As expected, there was a trace of fragrance, one of faint sandalwood.


    It was very faint, and if one didn¡¯t carefully sniff it, they would almost not be able to notice it.


    This should be considered a blessing in disguise. Most cultivators wouldn¡¯t notice if they didn¡¯t have Big Yellow¡¯s sensitive sense of smell.


    Moreover, he could forcefully restrain this strange fragrance with his Blood Qi if necessary.


    ¡°Then the next step is to cultivate the Starseizer Steps!¡±


    After dealing with this matter, he turned his attention back to the Starseizer Steps.


    The Starseizer Steps were derived from the stars. It was said that when one cultivated to the highest level, they could walk to the stars.


    The Starseizer Steps were connected to the great Spatial Dao, and they took reference from one of the 36 Divine Abilities, the Shrinking Earth into an Inch.


    The Starseizer Steps in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand was not the original version but a modified one.


    This was because the Starseizer Steps were too difficult to cultivate. The original version of the Starseizer Steps was a spatial divine ability similar to Shrinking Earth into an Inch.


    Once one cultivated it, one¡¯s ability to escape would basically be maxed out.


    Most people would find it difficult to do anything to you.


    But this also meant that cultivating was tough. The great Spatial Dao and Time Dao had always been the most difficult ones to comprehend.


    Although the other great Daos were not necessarily inferior to space and time, one had to cultivate them to the extreme to match the other two.


    Take the great Dao of Strength, for example. One could even open up heaven and earth and recreate chaos by cultivating it to the extreme. Unfortunately, no one could cultivate to such a level.


    Therefore, the Starseizer Sect¡¯s ancestors specially modified the Starseizer Steps.


    After the modification, the Starseizer Steps became a kind of mysterious movement technique.


    It was not difficult to get started. One only needed to open the special acupuncture points in the body and then introduce a trace of starlight.


    This was considered to be the beginning. However, the beginning was still the beginning. The specifics still depended on one¡¯s aptitude.


    For example, although Tuoba Tai had gotten started with the Starseizer Steps, it could not be compared to some ordinary movement techniques.


    ¡®Special acupuncture points?¡¯


    Zhou Feng found the so-called special acupuncture points based on the Starseizer Steps that Tuoba Tai had silently written.


    It was actually an acupuncture point on the top of his head.


    In order to cultivate the simplified version of the Starseizer Steps, one had to open up the special acupuncture points in the body continuously.


    After that, they would continuously receive starlight and use it to cultivate.


    Although it was powerful, it couldn¡¯t compare to the original version of the Starseizer Steps.


    No matter how you cultivated, you wouldn¡¯t be faster than the original version if you didn¡¯t comprehend the great Spatial Dao.


    The original version of the Starseizer Steps could fold space. One step was equivalent to 100 steps.


    ¡°Remember, it is extremely dangerous to attack the acupuncture points. You need to do it under the protection of the Elders¡­¡±


    Danger? That was perfect. The thing he was least afraid of was danger.


    Zhou Feng had the passive Tenacious Heart, so he was the least afraid of getting injured.


    He would be able to recover a short time after getting injured fully.


    After completely understanding the Starseizer Steps, Zhou Feng immediately began to attack the acupuncture points with the power of Blood Qi.


    In fact, a large amount of Blood Qi would be consumed during the process.


    This was to pave the way for the original Starseizer Steps.


    After all, a strong physique was the simplest requirement to cultivate the Starseizer Steps that held the mysteries of the Spatial Dao.


    It was impossible to withstand the terrifying pressure when space folded without a strong physique.


    This was precisely Zhou Feng¡¯s strength. The Blood Qi in his body was like a vast ocean, and his physique was also powerful.


    The golden Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was like an erupting volcano. It gathered in one place and directly started to attack the hidden acupuncture point.


    Boom!


    This simple attack was like a huge ax splitting open a mountain.


    The booming sound shook Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body until he was dizzy, and a trace of blood seeped out of his seven orifices.


    Zhou Feng felt as if his head had been fiercely knocked.


    He had not felt this kind of feeling for a very long time. Although the Starseizer Steps had been modified, they were not that simple.


    What he did not know was that when Tuoba Tai¡¯s Master had still been alive, he had wasted a lot of effort in order to get Tuoba Tai to master the Starseizer Steps.


    He had used up all the Starlight Stones and spent a few years getting Tuoba Tai to open his first acupuncture point.


    Starlight Stones were a special ore that absorbed a large amount of starlight and could be used to assist in the Starseizer Steps.


    Originally, the Starseizer Sect had many ways to assist in the Starseizer Steps. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to guarantee that every generation of disciples could learn the Starseizer Steps just by relying on their individual aptitude.


    The Starlight Stone was once the Stareizer sect¡¯s most basic assist-type spiritual object.


    Relying on the starlight contained within the Starlight Stone to protect their physical bodies, along with the protection of their Masters and Elders, the Starseizer disciples were able to open their acupuncture points while ensuring their safety.


    However, Zhou Feng was now using his full strength to perform a miracle, relying on his terrifying recovery ability and enormous strength.


    He crazily bombarded the acupuncture point on the top of his head.


    This action was practically suicide, but it was also Zhou Feng¡¯s violent method.


    He was a step away from blasting open the hidden acupuncture point!

 Chapter 368 - Linxian City

    Chapter 368 Linxian City


    Zhou Feng¡¯s great strength blasted open the secret acupuncture point that originally required a large amount of time and preparation, creating a miracle.


    The instant this acupuncture point was blasted open, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire face turned snow white.


    Even his entire body suffered a huge blow.


    Although forcefully blasting open the acupuncture point was fast, the backlash was troublesome.


    A moment of carelessness could affect many aspects.


    However, with the help of the passive Tenacious Heart, Zhou Feng¡¯s seemingly serious injuries began to recover slowly.


    His complexion gradually recovered its color as well.


    ¡®This feeling¡­¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt that his entire body was exceptionally agile. This feeling was as if his body had become a few times lighter.


    Furthermore, the newly opened acupoint was actually slowly absorbing the Spiritual Qi within his body.


    Next, as long as he successfully absorbed the power of starlight into the acupuncture point, then he would master the Starseizer Steps to the initiation level.


    In the future, when he used the Starseizer Step, his entire body would be accompanied by a trace of starlight.


    It was like a meteor streaking across the sky.


    ¡°Very good!¡±


    Zhou Feng was somewhat excited, but he did not stop. Instead, he began to familiarize himself with the Starseizer Steps.


    At the same time, he waited for the night to begin to absorb the starlight.


    Although there was also a thin amount of starlight shining down during the day, it was still too little compared to the starlight power at night.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng cultivated in the wilderness for more than 10 days.


    He was only prepared to leave after the second acupuncture point was blasted open.


    To be honest, if it were not for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish¡¯s unhappy look, he would not have left like this. The more he cultivated the Starseizer Steps, the more he felt that it was suitable for him.


    After all, Zhou Feng had a huge advantage when cultivating the Starseizer Steps.


    Regardless of whether it was to receive starlight or to open an acupuncture point, all of these required a strong physique. If one did not have a strong physique, they could only use other methods to assist them.


    However, Zhou Feng did not need to use those methods at all.


    He could just be reckless. Moreover, these were the modified Starseizer Steps, so he did not need to comprehend anything.


    This was simply tailor-made for him.


    In order to cultivate the Starseizer Steps, he even pushed back the time of his soul travel to the great void.


    Although the time was a little short, Zhou Feng had already opened two secret acupuncture points.


    This was the second level of the Starseizer Steps. One had to know that the Starseizer Steps he obtained from Tuoba Tai had a total of seven levels.


    This speed was already terrifying.


    After opening these two acupuncture points, Zhou Feng had also accumulated quite a bit of starlight power.


    It just so happened that he could try to use the Starseizer Steps to travel.


    ¡°My next target is Linxian City!¡±


    As for where he would go next, he had already planned ahead.


    That would be the second large city near the Celestial Lake.


    The first large city was naturally Celestial Lake City, while the second one was Linxian City.


    And this Linxian City was actually not directly under the jurisdiction of the Jade Sword Holy Land but was jointly controlled by several clans.


    ven


    There wasn¡¯t even a grand formation, and the entire city was divided into several regions.


    Each region represented a clan¡¯s sphere of influence.


    Only the central City Lord Manor had Jade Sword disciples stationed there.


    This sort of situation could be said to be rare.


    After all, this was the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory, yet there was a large city that was not under its control.


    Zhou Feng did not know the exact details, but it was likely that the Jade Sword Holy Land had experienced many battles with those clans.


    Zhou Feng would only go to Linxian City to buy some things and earn some Spirit Stones along the way.


    Linxian City was really built next to the Celestial Lake.


    And because there were spirit veins at the bottom of Linxian City, there were more spirit fish resources in the waters there.


    As such, he wanted to go there and buy a fish tank for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to settle down.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish couldn¡¯t provide him with a steady supply of Celestial Qi.


    Then, he would look for some spiritual artifacts to equip himself and could go to some dangerous places to train if possible.


    As for how he would cultivate in the future, Zhou Feng had arranged everything properly.


    ¡°Big Yellow, let¡¯s compete in speed!¡± Thinking of this, Zhou Feng suddenly got excited and planned to compete in speed with Big Yellow.


    Big Yellow tilted his head, obviously a little puzzled. Zhou Feng¡¯s body suddenly moved, and threads of starlight flashed, dragging out a meteor tail light.


    Big Yellow¡¯s eyes widened, and he immediately chased after him.


    ¡°Disappeared? When?¡±


    When Jiang Yi learned about Zhou Feng¡¯s departure, he was somewhat stunned. He didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng not to be tied up in Celestial Lake City.


    Unexpectedly, he had left before the battle broke out in Celestial Lake City.


    A group of people had been audacious enough during the Celestial Lake Auction to attack and start robbing treasures.


    Moreover, it was premeditated. They had even had a plan to deal with Celestial Lake City¡¯s grand formation.


    After a day and night of fierce fighting, the Jade Sword Holy Land finally managed to suppress this matter.


    However, a few people managed to escape.


    The Dragon Transformation powerhouse who had made a move during that time did not stay behind either.


    This was simply a humiliation for the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Celestial Lake City had not had any accidents for so long, yet it actually dropped the ball at this time.


    Previously, the Celestial Lake City had been sealed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.


    Naturally, Jiang Yi had many matters to attend to since he was a core Jade Sword disciple.


    Only after dealing with those miscellaneous matters did Jiang Yi think of Zhou Feng.


    After all, according to the Great Elder, Zhou Feng was the key to his breakthrough.


    However, Jiang Yi only learned that Zhou Feng had already left before he knew it.


    And now, there was no trace of Zhou Feng at all.


    ¡°So, I still have to rely on myself to reach the next realm in the end?¡± Jiang Yi frowned.


    ¡®No! The Great Elder¡¯s prediction is definitely not wrong. I have to find this Zhou Feng.¡¯


    The more Jiang Yi cultivated, the more Jiang Yi believed in the so-called destiny.


    If he followed his original destiny, he might be able to break through to the Dragon Transformation stage, but that would be many years later.


    He had to look for a variable, and Zhou Feng was that variable.


    Speaking of which, it was strange. The Jade Sword Holy Land mainly nurtured sword cultivators.


    Jiang Yi was a sword cultivator, yet he believed in the so-called destiny. This was completely not in line with the temperament of a sword cultivator.


    But no matter what, Jiang Yi used the power of the Jade Sword Holy Land to look for traces of Zhou Feng.


    ¡­


    ¡°Haha! Big Yellow, you can¡¯t outrun me at all!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the depressed look on Big Yellow¡¯s face and was a little excited.


    W was


    In the race just now, Big Yellow was completely defeated.


    The Starseizer Steps gave him a considerable speed boost. He was as fast as a shooting star. Moreover, it was not tiring at all. Compared to using brute force to rush forward, the Starseizer Steps were simply amazing.


    13


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    ¡°Alright, alright. We¡¯ve arrived at Linxian City. Let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng was not fooling around. He had just relaxed a little.


    Next, he had to put in 120% of his energy.


    Hos Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was something that many people coveted.


    If he were not careful, he could very easily be ambushed.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng could not be as relaxed as before.

 Chapter 369 - Spirit Food and Level-2 Gluttony

    Chapter 369 Spirit Food and Level-2 Gluttony


    Although a great formation didn¡¯t protect Linxian City, there were many guards.


    A team of cultivators was guarding the city gate while many people were selling spirit fish outside the city gate.


    Also, one had to pay 10 Spirit Stones as tax to enter Linxian City. Zhou Feng rode on Big Yellow and paid the 10 Spirit Stones.


    Compared to the well-planned Celestial Lake City, Linxian City was a bit chaotic, and the cultivation levels of the people who came and went were also different.


    Moreover, they were not so xenophobic, perhaps because most people came from outside.


    ¡®I¡¯d better go to a teahouse first.¡¯


    Zhou Feng knew almost nothing about Linxian City, and the best place to get information was naturally a teahouse.


    Zhou Feng had never been to a place like a teahouse before.


    After all, before coming to the place under the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s jurisdiction, there was no teahouse in the place where Zhou Feng stayed.


    ¡®So big!¡¯


    Zhou Feng slowly reached the largest teahouse in Linxian City.


    This so-called teahouse occupied a vast area, and it even had a formation protecting it.


    There was actually a designated area to leave one¡¯s mount outside.


    Before Zhou Feng even reached the door, someone came to welcome him.


    ¡°Welcome!¡±


    The attendant led the astonished Zhou Feng into the enormous teahouse, which was divided into several regions according to the different levels.


    The second floor was specially set up to receive Purple Mansion cultivators.


    The third floor was for Divine Ability cultivators.


    All cultivators could sit in the main hall on the first floor.


    As for the upper floor, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t sure.


    He didn¡¯t go to the second floor either. Instead, he found a seat on the first floor.


    As soon as he sat down, a cookbook appeared in front of him.


    Spirit dishes?


    ¡°Using a special cooking method to prepare food¡­¡±


    As Zhou Feng read the introduction in the cookbook, he felt a sense of familiarity.


    This kind of service and decoration was similar to the restaurants in his previous life.


    Moreover, there were special methods to cook all kinds of spirit fish.


    These spirit dishes each had their effects, such as nourishing the physique, restoring Spiritual Qi, and so on.


    But in contrast, the price was high.


    He only ordered one dish and then asked for some water.


    Zhou Feng had come here to inquire about information, not to eat.


    After ordering the dishes, he quietly pricked up his ears and listened to what the people around him were talking about.


    ¡°Hey! Have you heard? Something big has happened in Celestial Lake City!¡±


    ¡°I heard long ago! If you ask me, those people are quite bold. They behaved atrociously in Celestial Lake City.¡±


    ¡°I heard there were even Demon Lords (Transformation Dragon realm) among them.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I heard that some human scum joined forces with the Demons.¡±


    II


    11


    First of all, Zhou Feng heard about the situation in Celestial Lake City.


    Previously, he had felt that something was amiss and wanted to avoid Jiang Yi, so he left Celestial Lake City.


    As such, he had no idea what happened after that.


    Now, he could understand what happened in the Celestial Lake City through these people.


    The Celestial Lake Auction¡¯s finale item had been snatched, and someone even opened Celestial Lake City¡¯s treasury.


    Although the Jade Sword Holy Land finally wiped out these lunatics with lightning speed, the Dragon Transformation Pill was lost, and even a few special spiritual tools were stolen.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land was looking for those people.


    ¡°Oh right! I heard that someone caught the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. Do you guys know about this?¡±


    ¡°We know! But I heard that that person was very cunning. He disappeared with the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.¡±


    ¡°Is he planning to wait for the price to skyrocket?¡±


    ¡°It should be¡­¡±


    Hearing that someone was talking about the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    He didn¡¯t expect the news to spread so quickly.


    Fortunately, he had made preparations and found a way to hide the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish¡¯s aura temporarily.


    After all, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was currently in the fish basket by his waist.


    If this was exposed, he would be in big trouble.


    After waiting for a while, the dish he ordered was served.


    Coincidentally, the spirit dish Zhou Feng ordered was steamed fish with Blackbear Fish as the raw material.


    He was no stranger to Blackbear Fish.


    After all, he had caught a few of them with his own hands.


    Now was the time to test whether the Blackbear Fish was delicious or not.


    Zhou Feng picked up his chopsticks and picked up the fresh and tender fish meat.


    When the fish meat entered his mouth, a fresh and sweet taste instantly filled his taste buds.


    Even though he usually did not have any appetite, he was momentarily shocked.


    This was too sweet and refreshing!


    Moreover, he didn¡¯t know what method he used, but he could lock a ball of Spiritual Qi into the fish meat.


    That ball of Spiritual Qi turned into a warm current along with the fish meat, warming his entire body.


    What made Zhou Feng even more shocked was that the passive Level-2 Gluttony was actually triggered. ¡°Constitution +1!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately felt that his body had become a little stronger.


    ¡®What? What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    He had only eaten a piece of fish meat, and his constitution improved a little bit?


    One had to know that his physical body had already reached its limit. If he wanted to continue improving, he could only slowly grind it or break through to the Divine Ability realm. Unexpectedly, he improved a little bit after eating a piece of fish meat.


    This was simply too inconceivable.


    Zhou Feng thought of the passive Level-2 Gluttony.


    ¡®If memory serves, in addition to digesting food faster, there¡¯s also a chance to gain an unknown attribute.¡¯


    It had been triggered in the past, but it didn¡¯t happen for a long time after that.


    ¡®Is it because of the spirit dish? This spirit dish with passive Level-2 Gluttony¡­


    Zhou Feng gradually had a guess in his heart.


    But at that moment, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.


    The sound of light footsteps seemed to step on everyone¡¯s hearts with every step.


    This was a special rhythm. It was neither fast nor slow, but it made people feel very uncomfortable.


    When they raised their heads, they saw a young girl walking in.


    She wore a faint yellow dress and had fair and tender skin and exquisite facial features. An extremely young and tender beauty appeared in everyone¡¯s eyes.


    This young girl seemed like a flower bud that had yet to bloom.


    Even so, her gorgeous splendor surpassed countless people.


    It was hard to imagine how devastatingly beautiful this young girl would be once she grew up.


    And behind this young girl were two old servants.


    These two old servants bent their backs and wore very simple clothes, but they gave off the feeling of venomous snakes. Ming Lihua glanced at them and asked directly, ¡°Is Xia Chunqiu here?¡±


    This person¡¯s voice carried a hint of fierceness compared to their appearance.


    ¡°Hmph! He¡¯s not here! Eh? Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?¡±


    Ming Lihua looked a little disappointed when she didn¡¯t sense Xia Chunqiu¡¯s aura, but she suddenly sensed the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish¡¯s aura.


    Then, she stared at Zhou Feng.


    ¡®No way!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng sensed that trouble had come to find him.


    He had obviously concealed the fish¡¯s aura, but even so, someone discovered that he had the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish on him.

 Chapter 370 - The Ming Clans Prodigy

    Chapter 370 The Ming Clan¡¯s Prodigy


    Although Ming Lihua looked small, her aura was not weak.


    When her gaze landed on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, a wave of blood-red Qi began to surge. The rumbling sound of blood-red Qi flowing did not seem like something a young girl could have.


    ¡°What? Celestial Spiritmirror Fish? Did I mishear?¡±


    ¡°This person has a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?¡±


    ¡°There shouldn¡¯t be any mistakes. The Ming Clan¡¯s eldest daughter shouldn¡¯t be lying.¡±


    IIII


    Everyone¡¯s attention was once again on Zhou Feng. After all, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was a very hot topic.


    One had the right to become the Xia Clan¡¯s son-in-law with this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    It was also because the other large clans didn¡¯t want their direct descendants to marry into the clan.


    Therefore, this was a great opportunity for the other small clans.


    ¡®Troublesome! Troublesome! Really troublesome!


    Zhou Feng sighed in his heart.


    However, there was no change on his face. He only sped up his actions and stuffed the entire plate of fish into his mouth.


    This Blackbear Fish was cooked using a special method, so he could receive a strength increase through the passive Level-2 Gluttony.


    This could not be wasted. If they were to fight directly later, there would be no chance to eat


    ¡°Hmm?¡±


    Ming Lihua looked at the nonchalant Zhou Feng and strode forward. ¡°Let me ask you, is that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish on your waist?¡±


    Although Zhou Feng had concealed its aura, Ming Lihua still felt a trace of Celestial Qi leaking out.


    That Celestial Qi was very special as only the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish could release it.


    She was so familiar with it because the Ming Clan also had more than a dozen Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    And two of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish were about to transform.


    Because of this, Ming Lihua could feel the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish on Zhou Feng¡¯s waist.


    She could even feel that this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was a little weak. It had been out of the water for a long time.


    Although the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish could float in the air, it could not leave the water for an extended period.


    It was best to raise it with a spirit spring, which should be filled with all kinds of water plants and medicinal pills.


    By carefully raising it like this, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish could continuously produce Celestial Qi and assist in comprehending divine abilities.


    It could even condense a trace of destiny power when there were more of them.


    The person in front of her clearly did not know anything


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish falling into the hands of such a person was simply a reckless waste of a god¡¯s gift.


    ¡®It just so happens that I can¡¯t find Xia Chunqiu, so I can play with this person!


    Ming Lihua could also sense that Zhou Feng was not simple.


    After putting the last piece of fish into his mouth, Zhou Feng said very calmly, ¡°It¡¯s mine!¡±


    As soon as he said this, he could feel the gazes around him becoming more and more intense.


    The idiom, ¡®Possessing wealth leads to sin¡¯, was indeed correct.


    This was especially true in the world of cultivators.


    Everyone had extraordinary power, and the pursuit of all sorts of spiritual objects was innately born.


    This was because these things could allow one to reach a higher level.


    Of course, the most important thing was that Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation level wasn¡¯t enough to intimidate these people.


    How could a mere Purple Mansion cultivator keep the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?


    If Zhou Feng was a Divine Ability cultivator, the situation would have been much better.


    It seemed like breaking through to the Divine Ability realm became more urgent than ever.


    Zhou Feng had also felt traces of pressure in the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Too many cultivators had reached the Divine Ability realm. Although most of them had just entered the Divine Ability realm, they hadn¡¯t even cultivated a single divine ability to perfection.


    But no matter what, they were still more powerful than Purple Mansion cultivators.


    How strong would Zhou Feng¡¯s actual combat strength be if this continued?


    If he were to encounter a prodigy like Jiang Yi, he would have no other choice but to flee.


    Originally, Zhou Feng¡¯s plan was to take care of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    He would rely on the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to produce a trace of Celestial Qi.


    Then, he would use the spirit fragrance to travel through the great void once again. He would be the last one to comprehend the Great Void Primordial Art and step into the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡°Then, do you know that this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish will die if this continues?¡±


    ¡°I do.¡±


    Zhou Feng was clear about Ming Lihua¡¯s question.


    Otherwise, he would not have come to this city. He wanted to solve the problem of raising the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    ¡°You know? That¡¯s good. Since you don¡¯t know how to raise it anyway, why don¡¯t you give It to me?¡±


    Directly take it? Ming Lihua was not interested in this kind of thing.


    No matter what, she had some reputation. She naturally would not do such a despicable thing


    Moreover, she also guessed that Zhou Feng would not agree so easily.


    However, this did not matter. Once the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was exposed, many little ghosts would pester Zhou Feng.


    When Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t hold on any longer, she would appear.


    At that time, with the Ming Clan¡¯s reputation, they would definitely be able to get the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish from Zhou Feng.


    A mere Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was not enough for the Ming Clan to give up on the reputation they had been accumulating for several generations.


    By using this method, although they would have to pay a price, it was better than directly taking action. As the eldest daughter of the Ming Clan, this method was used very skillfully.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. He felt that this girl had long expected his reaction.


    ¡°Not selling? That¡¯s fine, but I recommend you get a spirit fish tank.


    ¡°The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish needs pure Spiritual Qi to grow flesh. It is best to match it with the spirit spring and the aquatic plants in the central area of the Celestial Lake¡­¡±


    Ming Lihua was not angry due to Zhou Feng¡¯s rejection. Instead, she smiled and gave him some suggestions.


    In Ming Lihua¡¯s opinion, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish would be hers sooner or later.


    It was temporarily under Zhou Feng¡¯s care.


    Before that, of course, Zhou Feng had to take good care of it. Otherwise, it would not be good if the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was on the verge of dying.


    ¡°Thank you!¡±


    Zhou Feng vaguely guessed Ming Lihua¡¯s thoughts. However, he urgently needed those suggestions.


    As such, he casually thanked her.


    ¡°No need, no need. Oh right, The things I said just now can be found in the Mingshi Workshop.


    an


    ¡°Go there and report my name. My name Is Ming Lihua. There should be some discounts,¡± Ming Lihua added.


    Although she looked like a young girl, regardless of whether it was her actions or her tone of voice, Ming Lihua gave people a very old-fashioned feeling.


    ¡°She¡¯s really powerful! I don¡¯t know how the Ming Clan raised her.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Not only is her cultivation aptitude terrifying, but she¡¯s also so good at treating people and things. She¡¯s treating this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish as her own!¡±


    ¡°As expected, the Ming Clan is the only one in this generation that can contend with the Xia Clan.¡±


    II


    11


    Many people began to sigh as Zhou Feng and Ming Lihua were talking.


    Only the Ming Clan and Xia Clan had outstanding leaders in the young generation among the top clans nearby. The other large clans were on a completely different level compared to the Ming Clan and Xia Clan.


    Moreover, the leading youngsters of these two families were both women. This was quite rare.


    ¡°Goodbye,¡± Zhou Feng said. He did not intend to stay there any longer.


    Instead, he chose to head toward the Mingshi Workshop. The next step was to prepare for a breakthrough.


    As for someone who wanted to cause trouble for him, he did not panic. He just needed to deal with them as they came.

 Chapter 371 - Kill Directly

    Chapter 371 Kill Directly


    As soon as Zhou Fengyi left, some people immediately followed behind him.


    At the same time, some people began to spread the news.


    A single Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was enough to make some small clans take action.


    This was because the territory the Jade Sword Holy Land ruled over was relatively safe.


    In addition, some cultivators passed down their inheritances from generation to generation.


    Many small cultivation clans were directly born, and their descendants were stronger than ordinary vagabond cultivators.


    However, they were constantly suppressed by those large clans. If it was accumulated over generations¡­


    It was simply impossible to break through the ranks, so some variables were needed.


    Clearly, a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was enough to be called a variable.


    If one were to establish a relationship with the Xia Clan through the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, then they could rely on the resources of the Xia Clan to allow their small clans to rise up.


    ¡°Hurry up and follow them! Don¡¯t lose them!¡±


    ¡°If we can¡¯t do it, we¡¯ll do it the hard way!¡±


    At present, many people had made up their minds.


    In Linxian City, there weren¡¯t so many rules, and there wasn¡¯t a big formation to suppress them.


    Seeing the restless crowd, Ming Lihua seemed to think of something happy and slowly followed behind Zhou Feng.


    This was going to be a good show!


    Zhou Feng rode on Big Yellow and strolled on the street.


    Although the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was exposed, he didn¡¯t panic. After all, this was the city.


    No matter how crazy these people were, they wouldn¡¯t go so far as to make a move.


    Even if they did, they would still not dare to make a move.


    There were so many buildings nearby, and there were even quite a few people.


    No matter what, there would be some misgivings.


    As such, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t panic at all.


    But not far away, a group of people, its leader an arrogant youth, blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s path.


    ¡°I heard that you have a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. Is it true?¡±


    Lu Cheng narrowed his eyes and slightly raised his chin, showing his disdain.


    At the same time, there were also a few people who vaguely separated themselves from the passersby.


    ¡®So fast?¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not expect that trouble would come so quickly.


    His previous guess was actually not right at


    all.


    Were these people really so bold? They dared to make a move in Linxian City directly?


    ¡°Today is a good day for me to break through my cultivation bottleneck. Why don¡¯t you give me your Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?¡±


    Lu Cheng¡¯s tone was a little frivolous. At the same time, he faintly revealed the imposing manner of the descendant of a clan.


    Moreover, without knowing when, the pedestrians in the surroundings suddenly disappeared.


    The entire street was empty.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was like prey that had fallen into a trap. An inescapable net surrounded him.


    Ming Lihua, who was originally following behind, absorbed them from afar.


    ¡°Interesting. From which clan is he from?¡±


    ¡°Young Miss, this is a person from the Lu Clan. There are also guards from the City Lord Manor beside him!¡± An old servant behind her answered her question.


    It turned out that this was a trap directed at Zhou Feng


    After learning that Zhou Feng had the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish on him, someone set up this trap in a very short amount of time.


    Moreover, it could avoid many situations as much as possible.


    There was no time to investigate Zhou Feng¡¯s origins. But one thing could be certain-he was definitely not a member of a large clan nearby, nor was he a Jade Sword disciple. It was very likely that he was someone from another place.


    In the end, he might be a vagabond cultivator because these things were still very easy to distinguish.


    We


    This scheme was actually very simple. That was to send someone to provoke Zhou Feng directly.


    Zhou Feng would absolutely not hand over the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish according to the deduction.


    There would definitely be a conflict between the two sides when that time came. And once there was a conflict, then it would be time for the guards of the City Lord Manor to appear. They would first take control of the two of them and escort them directly to the City Lord Manor.


    One had to know that the City Lord Manor was affiliated with the Jade Sword Saint Land. Although it was usually not in charge of matters, its authority did not weaken in the slightest.


    Once they arrived at the City Lord Manor, Zhou Feng¡¯s Celestial Spiritmirror Fish would not be something that he could control.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s background was strong enough, he could even force the Jade Sword Holy Land to lower their heads.


    The Lu Clan also had to bear the corresponding price. Since they were going to be the first to eat the crab, they naturally had to bear this little risk.


    And if Zhou Feng had a small background but were not strong enough, then he would leave the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish behind.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s life would be spared.


    After all, they were not handling this properly. All they had to do was take the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to let him go. Although this would cause enmity, at least it wouldn¡¯t be an enmity that wouldn¡¯t end until one of them died.


    As for Zhou Feng, he didn¡¯t have any background and was only a vagabond cultivator.


    Then the result was naturally self-evident.


    This whole set of arrangements was directly arranged for Zhou Feng.


    Simply put, it was to strike first to gain the upper hand and then watch the dishes go down.


    It had to be said that this Lu Clan had both scheming and boldness.


    ¡°Not bad! Not bad!¡±


    Ming Lihua could see through the Lu Clan¡¯s plan at a glance.


    However, this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish still had to fall into her hands in the end.


    Perhaps the Lu Clan had also considered this point.


    If they used this to build a relationship with the Ming Clan, it would actually not be considered a loss.


    From the perspective of others, the risk the Lu Clan was taking was not small at all. They might even fall into a bottomless abyss if they were not careful.


    However, as a small clan, this was also one of the few opportunities to defy the heavens and change fate.


    The opportunity was right in front of them, so they had no choice but to risk it.


    Cultivation was like sailing against the current. If they did not advance, they would retreat. There was no foolproof plan at all. ¡®Are they deliberately forcing me to make a move?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that something was wrong because many auras were locked on him from all directions. It was obvious that they were forcing him to make a move.


    He should obediently hand over the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish if he lowered his head.


    ¡°How is it? Have you considered it?¡±


    Lu Cheng¡¯s aura became fiercer, and he walked toward Zhou Feng step by step.


    Big Yellow began to feel a little uneasy. He also sensed that something was wrong and asked Zhou Feng if he should run.


    ¡°Run?¡±


    Zhou Feng had no intention of running at all. In this situation, the best thing to do was to show off his strength.


    He would Intimidate some small fries so that they wouldn¡¯t disturb him again.


    If he ran away now, he would only be subjected to endless harassment.


    Now he had to show off enough strength to get a firm foothold here.


    Who asked them to covet his Celestial Spiritmirror Fish?


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng let out an angry roar, and the Blood Qi within his body exploded forth without reservation.


    Starseizer Steps!


    The golden Blood Qi was like a huge wave, and the Invincible Avatar slowly appeared.


    That terrifying Blood Qi instantly caused the faces of those who were staring at him to change color.


    This Blood Qi was too terrifying! Was this still the Blood Qi that a Purple Mansion cultivator could unleash?


    Lu Cheng, who had been under most of the pressure, was even more frightened.


    His eyes suddenly widened while his chest hurt. He had been sent flying backward!


    ¡®This¡­ is a Purple Mansion cultivator!?¡¯


    In the instant that Lu Cheng lost consciousness, this was what he had been thinking

 Chapter 372 - How Audacious

    Chapter 372 How Audacious


    Lu Cheng had never imagined that Zhou Feng, a Purple Mansion realm expert, would actually dare to take the initiative to attack.


    One had to know that no matter what, he was an Initial-Stage Divine Ability cultivator.


    He hadn¡¯t even cultivated the only divine ability he had mastered to the initial stage, but it was still a divine ability. The detection between the Divine Ability realm and the Purple Mansion realm wasn¡¯t that easy to erase.


    It was one thing for Zhou Feng to dare to take the initiative to attack, but what surprised Lu Cheng the most was that he hadn¡¯t had the time to react.


    Even if there was a factor of carelessness, this shouldn¡¯t have been the outcome.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch mobilized all of the Blood Qi in his body, and he even used the Starseizer Steps that he had just mastered.


    He could reach breakneck speed, and his strength far surpassed that of an ordinary Divine Ability cultivator.


    Lu Cheng¡¯s chest caved in, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    The others were also shocked by this turn of events.


    How did Lu Cheng fall in a single move?


    Although the people of the Lu Clan were already suppressed, the City Lord Manor¡¯s people hiding nearby immediately moved out.


    After all, this was already planned. As long as there was a conflict between the two sides, it didn¡¯t matter who made the first move.


    They would all be captured. Although this was somewhat different from the plan, it didn¡¯t affect the overall situation.


    ¡°Who dares to fight within the city!?¡±


    ¡°All of you, stop!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng made his move, a group of guards suddenly appeared.


    Although this group of guards was all at the Purple Mansion realm, they all wore uniform battle armor and held standard spiritual weapons.


    Most importantly, these guards represented the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    No matter how arrogant or powerful you


    were¡­


    In the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory, you couldn¡¯t provoke the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Thus, Zhou Feng could only surrender.


    If he dared to resist, he would be provoking the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Of course, Lu Cheng would also be captured to show that there was no shady business.


    After entering the City Lord Manor, Zhou Feng would be at their mercy.


    The Lu Clan had long bribed the disciples of the holy land in the City Lord Manor.


    However, it was because Zhou Feng had a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish that the Jade Sword disciples took action.


    In the past, the Lu Clan was not worthy enough to cooperate with the Jade Sword disciples. In any case, it was just a waste of time. In the end, the Lu Clan would bear the bad reputation of snatching the fish.


    Low risk, high reward. Even the Jade Sword disciples found it hard not to be tempted.


    ¡°Oh? There¡¯s going to be a good show! This person doesn¡¯t seem to be that easy to lower his head!¡±


    When Ming Lihua saw the City Lord Manor¡¯s guards appear, the excitement on her face intensified.


    She could tell that Zhou Feng would make a move again.


    If Zhou Feng really made a move, then there would be a good show to watch.


    Few people were bold enough to do something in the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    Moreover, given the strength that Zhou Feng had just displayed, ordinary Divine Ability experts wouldn¡¯t be able to take him down.


    ¡°Interesting! This person is quite handsome!¡± Most importantly, Ming Lihua felt that Zhou Feng was quite handsome.


    It was rare to see a handsome, powerful, and even so manly man.


    ¡°You are¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly recognized the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s symbol.


    At that moment, he understood. Wasn¡¯t this a trap?


    This was clearly a trap.


    However, although he was clear in his heart, Zhou Feng still pretended to be stupid on the surface.


    To be honest, if it weren¡¯t because he had no choice, he wouldn¡¯t want to start a dispute with a giant like the holy land for the time being.


    He understood how strong the force that could be called the Holy Land was.


    The Divine Ability realm was only the standard for the core disciples.


    The Dragon Transformation realm was the standard for the Elders, and almost every big city would have a Dragon Transformation cultivator overseeing it.


    Just from this point alone, it could be seen how strong the Jade Sword Holy Land was.


    Not to mention, the inheritance of the Jade Sword Holy Land had never been cut off.


    After countless years of inheritance, the divine abilities inherited by the Jade Sword Holy Land were all of the best quality.


    There were countless supporting techniques for cultivating divine abilities, and there were also many details. These were all the huge differences between the disciples of a holy land and vagabond cultivators.


    In fact, saying so much meant that if Zhou Feng wanted to fight above his level, it would be challenging to face the disciples of the holy land.


    He would have to use all his strength, plus all kinds of passive bonuses, against such a disciple.


    He could barely fight above his level, but if there were more people, he would not be able to hold on


    ¡°Hmph! We are Jade Sword disciples. You can¡¯t fight here in Linxian City!¡±


    ¡°Come with us to the City Lord Manor! Don¡¯t worry, there won¡¯t be any danger!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! If you intend to disobey, then the consequences won¡¯t be so simple.¡±


    Perhaps it was because they felt that it would be very troublesome for Zhou Feng to resist.


    These City Lord Manor¡¯s guards threatened Zhou Feng, intending to use the name of the Jade Sword Holy Land to intimidate Zhou Feng.


    At that time, once Zhou Feng surrendered, it wouldn¡¯t be so simple.


    The Spirit Binding Rope was a spiritual artifact that had been specially developed to trap people.


    Once trapped, it would continuously absorb the criminal¡¯s Spiritual Qi.


    Normally, once trapped, it would be almost impossible to break free. Even a Divine Ability cultivator would find it difficult to break free.


    However, this kind of Spirit Binding Rope could only be used when the criminal could not resist.


    This was because the Spirit Binding Rope would separate countless tiny ropes and insert them into the body.


    Only by going deep into the meridians would one be able to ensure that the prisoner would be controlled.


    Thus, it would be extremely painful once the Spirit Binding Rope bound you.


    ¡°Just a few Purple Mansion cultivators¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need to take the initiative to probe them. He could already sense an enormous amount of malice.


    ¡°Eh? You plan to¡­¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t willing to surrender, the face of the leading guard instantly changed.


    He was planning to use the Jade Sword Holy Land to suppress Zhou Feng.


    But in the next second, Big Yellow suddenly jumped.


    Big Yellow was no longer weak. Not only had he broken through to the Spirit General rank, but he had also inherited 1% of Zhou Feng¡¯s attributes and passive skills.


    The leader of the guards only felt a gust of evil wind in front of him.


    The armor on his body had just raised a curtain of light when it was instantly broken through ¡°Ah !¡±


    Big Yellow¡¯s big mouth directly swallowed the head of this guard.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t hesitate at all and unleashed his full power.


    Given his physical body and Blood Qi, these Purple Mansion guards weren¡¯t even worth mentioning


    He directly punched them one by one!


    Although the armor on these guards wasn¡¯t bad, Zhou Feng smashed them all to pieces.


    One by one, they were sent flying, blood splattering everywhere.


    The scene could be described as a tiger slaughtering a flock of sheep.


    ¡°Crazy! This person dares to attack the people of the holy land in Linxian City!?¡± ¡°This, this, this¡­¡±


    ¡°Hurry up! Leave quickly! If the Jade Sword disciples go crazy, it will be very easy to implicate us.¡±


    ¡°Audacious! Really audacious!¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng attack without hesitation, many people were dumbfounded.


    After all, the news that Zhou Feng had the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish had already spread out.


    Therefore, there were quite a number of people from nearby forces who were watching. But when they saw that Zhou Feng did not hesitate to make a move, all of them were scared and quickly fled.

 Chapter 373 - Turning Around

    Chapter 373 Turning Around


    To some small clans, a small amount of dust from the Jade Sword Holy Land could crush them to death.


    Now, Zhou Feng actually dared to attack the Jade Sword disciples in Linxian City.


    This would definitely incur the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s wrath.


    Those who were watching would also be implicated.


    This wasn¡¯t a joke. Even though the Jade Sword Holy Land had the best reputation among the three holy lands, everything depended on the comparison.


    Compared to the extremely xenophobic Jade Lake Holy Land and the Great Sun Holy Land, the Jade Sword Holy Land was just not that xenophobic, but their way of doing things was overbearing


    Sword cultivators would always talk through their swords.


    It was fine if you did not provoke these sword cultivators, but once you provoked them, it would be troublesome.


    ¡°Yo! So powerful! He actually made a move!¡±


    Ming Lihua looked at the expressionless Zhou Feng, and her face seemed to be even more excited. It was as if she was saying that her guess was indeed correct.


    ¡°Young Miss! We should leave!¡± an old servant behind her reminded her.


    Under such circumstances, she still needed to stay a little further away. ¡°It¡¯s fine! Even if it implicates me, I won¡¯t be affected!¡±


    Ming Lihua didn¡¯t intend to leave. She wanted to see how Zhou Feng would deal with it next.


    If Zhou Feng had no other choice but to meet someone who extended his hand, he would be very touched!


    The last guard of the City Lord Manor said with a trembling voice, ¡°Do you know¡ª¡±


    Obviously, he wanted to rely on the holy land to suppress Zhou Feng.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to fall for this trick.


    Threaten him? He wasn¡¯t afraid.


    These people were clearly trying to manipulate him. If Zhou Feng listened obediently, the outcome would definitely be disastrous.


    He had no backer or background. Once he surrendered, he would be at the mercy of these people.


    He might as well make a move.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land? What a big name.


    But even if he dared to fight back, it wasn¡¯t as if Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t experienced this before.


    In fact, many people could understand this logic.


    However, the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s reputation was just too great. Many people felt that they were lucky. They thought that the Jade Sword Holy Land was such a big force after all.


    They shouldn¡¯t be bothered with small figures like them!


    Thus, they all surrendered. The final result was tragic.


    They would definitely have to face the ade Sword Holy Land¡¯s terrifying pressure if they resisted.


    If they didn¡¯t resist, they would only have a 99% chance of survival.


    Most people would probably choose the second option.


    ¡°What a pity. Big Yellow, let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed as he looted the guards¡¯ equipment.


    Then, he rode on Big Yellow and quickly left Linxian City. His plan was to temporarily leave this place and break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    The disadvantage of his realm was really restricting him in every way.


    It wouldn¡¯t be impossible to change his appearance if it really didn¡¯t work out.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t forget about the passive Bloodline Simulation.


    When the time came, he would hide outside and use the passive Bloodline Simulation to exchange for a new identity before sneaking into Linxian City.


    As long as there wasn¡¯t a Dragon Transformation cultivator, no one should be able to see through his disguise.


    It was precisely because Zhou Feng had all sorts of countermeasures that he wasn¡¯t flustered at all. ¡°The only troublesome thing is the Jade Sword disciples who are guarding Linxian City¡­¡¯ Zhou Feng had already sensed that a sharp Sword Qi was rapidly approaching him.


    According to the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s rules, every big city would station disciples there.


    Moreover, they were elite disciples of the Divine Ability realm.


    These elite disciples cultivated at least two divine abilities, one of which was at least at the initial success stage.


    This was different from those inferior Divine Ability cultivators. These elite disciples were all experts in battle.


    In addition, these disciples stationed here were all sword cultivators without exception.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s foundation was martial power!


    Hua Jun was currently frowning. He seemed to be extremely displeased.


    ¡°Damn it! Just where did this madman come from? A mere Purple Mansion cultivator dares to provoke the holy land!¡±


    Hua Jun had been studying the second divine ability.


    It was not easy to make some progress, yet he was forced to stop meditation at that critical moment.


    In order to be able to study wholeheartedly, he had specially chosen Linxian City.


    The few clans were in charge of Linxian City¡¯s management, after all.


    Under normal circumstances, the stationed disciples did not need to waste any energy. All they needed to do was to collect the profits every month.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance disturbed Hua Jun, making him very angry.


    If it had been a Divine Ability cultivator who had disturbed him, he would mind. Yet, it had to be a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    This was simply a waste of time!


    ¡°Is this the person?¡±


    Hua Jun had spent a short amount of time catching up to Zhou Feng.


    Firstly, it was because Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t used his full strength to escape.


    Zhou Feng knew that since he had taken the initiative to attack the Jade Sword disciples here in Linxian City, it was impossible for him to escape so easily.


    Before leaving, he had to exchange a few blows with the elite Jade Sword disciples.


    Thus, he didn¡¯t try his best to escape. Instead, he held back.


    He was even using the strength that a Purple Mansion cultivator should have.


    This was to trick Hua Jun, who was chasing after him.


    Secondly, Hua Jun was astonishingly fast.


    Hua Jun was dressed in white, and he was stepping lightly on a flying sword.


    He disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving behind faint sword scars.


    He was practically a sword immortal riding the wind on his sword.


    ¡°Hmph! Slash!¡±


    Hua Jun let out a soft snort. A Purple Mansion cultivator wasn¡¯t worth him using a flying sword at all. Thus, he pointed out with his sword finger, sending out a streak of invisible Sword Qi.


    manner.


    Then, he turned around in a carefree manner. He didn¡¯t even need to see the result.


    He was still in a hurry to go back and comprehend.


    The enemy would definitely die on the spot in half a breath¡¯s time.


    That stream of Sword Qi was as thin as a strand of hair. It was an invisible substance, like a gentle breeze.


    Hua Jun had used his divine ability to condense the Sword Qi into a strand of hair.


    This stream of Sword Qi against a Purple Mansion cultivator had already exceeded the limit.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hair instantly stood on end.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    He didn¡¯t even need to think before his body instinctively reacted.


    Starseizer Steps!


    Strands of starlight shot out of that special acupuncture points.


    Zhou Feng instantly left behind countless afterimages, grabbing onto Big Yellow and moving forward more than ten meters.


    That strand of Sword Qi instantly drilled into the ground and left behind a bottomless hole. It was hard to imagine how terrifying the consequences would be if that strand of Sword Qi hit Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart trembled.


    Not to mention anything else, just that invincible sword intent alone was enough to make him suffer.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Hua Jun, who had been rushing back to comprehend, didn¡¯t hear a scream for a long time.


    He immediately frowned, then turned his head and saw that Zhou Feng had long since run to the horizon, leaving behind only a blurry figure.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    That Sword Qi just now didn¡¯t hit a mere Purple Mansion cultivator!?


    Before Hua Jun had arrived, he had already learned that Zhou Feng, this Purple Mansion cultivator, was a bit extraordinary.


    But he didn¡¯t take it to heart at all. No matter how strange a Purple Mansion cultivator was, could it be that he could be a match for him?


    The gap between the Divine Ability and the Purple Mansion realm was like a huge canyon!


    But now, it seemed that this Purple Mansion cultivator had some tricks up his sleeve. He had actually dodged that Sword Qi that he had sent out. ¡°Damn it! Flying Snow! You go!¡±


    Hua Jun¡¯s face was somewhat displeased as he controlled the flying sword under his feet.


    Until now, he still did not plan to chase after him. Instead, he planned to use the sword control technique.


    He used the flying sword to chop off Zhou Feng¡¯s head from a hundred miles away.

 Chapter 374 - Return My Flying Sword to Me!

    Chapter 374 Return My Flying Sword to Me!


    The flying sword named Flying Snow tore through the surrounding air at lightning speed.


    It was so fast that it was like a ray of light.


    An ordinary person would not be able to react in time.


    Sword Control was a divine ability in itself. Although this divine ability was tough to cultivate, its power would also be unimaginable once cultivated.


    It was just like how Hua Jun wanted to imitate the sword immortal in the storybook and chop off an opponent¡¯s head from 100 li away.


    If it were an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator, they wouldn¡¯t be able to resist at all.


    This was because an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator would die before they even had the chance to notice.


    Zhou Feng could predict it in advance, however.


    That feeling was as if a needle had pierced into his back.


    The flying sword was still in flight. ¡®I can¡¯t dodge It!


    Zhou Feng naturally wanted to dodge the flying sword.


    However, he had a premonition that he wouldn¡¯t be able to dodge no matter how hard he tried.


    This was because this sword had Hua Jun¡¯s divine sense locked onto it.


    No matter how hard you tried to dodge it, you wouldn¡¯t be able to dodge the divine sense lock on you.


    ¡®If I can¡¯t dodge, then I won¡¯t dodge!¡¯


    Zhou Feng planned to take this sword forcefully.


    The golden Blood Qi stirred as Zhou Feng suddenly turned around and grabbed the flying sword with both hands.


    During this time, the sharp Sword Qi directly broke through his body.


    Given his realm, it was impossible to resist this sharp Sword Qi.


    However, Zhou Feng had already expected this. After his flesh and blood were broken, he used his bones to block the flying sword.


    He also guided the flying sword into his chest.


    This was forcefully changing the trajectory of the flying sword.


    Under normal circumstances, the target of this sword was the opponent¡¯s neck.


    Now that he had done this, he stabbed it into his body and avoided countless vital points.


    ¡°How terrifying!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression changed when the flying sword stabbed into his body.


    A destructive torrent of Sword Qi instantly invaded his body.


    This Sword Qi seemed to have taken stimulants and began to wreak havoc in his body¡¯s meridians.


    Zhou Feng had no other way at all. He could only use the rich Blood Qi to wear down this Sword Qi forcefully.


    Too powerful!


    This flying sword had flown from afar, yet it still had such great power.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng had just used the Starseizer Steps to run a very long distance.


    Although this flying sword did not span a 100 li, it definitely could span dozens of li.


    Even though it had flown such a long distance, it still retained such power. As expected, the offensive abilities of sword cultivators were truly terrifying.


    This was because, other than crossing such a long distance, this flying sword had also broken through Zhou Feng¡¯s various passive buffs.


    The initial passive Bone Coating had already been formed a long time ago.


    Originally, he had wanted to use this passive to test how strong the flying sword was.


    However, the bone coating was like a piece of paper and did not have any effect at all.


    Other than that, the various passive buffs were also unable to do anything to the flying sword.


    Fortunately, this flying sword lost its sharpness.


    Sword Control was strong, but it couldn¡¯t last


    long.


    Too rigid and easily broken? This was completely impossible in Sword Control.


    Sword Control didn¡¯t leave any leeway. One sword attack carried the cultivator¡¯s full force.


    Thus, Hua Jun suddenly felt that he couldn¡¯t take back his flying sword.


    ¡°What¡¯s the situation? How is it possible?¡±


    Hua Jun activated the mark on Flying Snow, trying to recall his flying sword. According to the original plan, Zhou Feng would die if the flying sword hit him.


    No matter if it were a small wound or something else, Zhou Feng would still die.


    The Sword Qi attached to the flying sword was not a joke. It was condensed to the extreme, fierce, and invisible.


    As long as a tiny wound was opened, it would be able to enter the body through the wound.


    This torrent of Sword Qi would definitely rip his body apart.


    Only a Divine Ability cultivator of the same level would be able to deal with this invading Sword Qi.


    Zhou Feng, a Purple Mansion cultivator, wanted to deal with it? That was impossible.


    But the reality was that no matter how Hua Jun summoned his flying sword, it didn¡¯t come back.


    On the contrary, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was still strong, showing no signs of disappearing.


    ¡°You want to run? Stay here for me!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hand firmly controlled the flying sword that was trembling crazily. At the same time, the Blood Qi in his whole body was gathering, suppressing the Sword Qi that had entered his body.


    This sword was indeed powerful. If Zhou Feng did not have the passive Tenacious Heart, he might not have long to live.


    As such, Zhou Feng was not afraid at all and relied on his abundant Blood Qi to suppress Flying Snow.


    Soon, Zhou Feng brought Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword under control¡­ and fled.


    The further he ran, the weaker the flying sword¡¯s resistance became.


    Although Hua Jun was powerful, his divine sense couldn¡¯t possibly extend that far away.


    ¡°Thief! Quickly return my Flying Snow!¡± Sensing that Flying Snow was getting further and further away from him, Hua Jun could no longer maintain his unrestrained appearance from before.


    Pretentious! Pretentious, my *ss!


    Right now, his flying sword was about to be taken away.


    At that moment, Hua Jun only wanted to give himself a big slap.


    It was clear that he had underestimated this Purple Mansion cultivator.


    This was a mistake of the lowest level. He was too arrogant.


    Even if the Divine Ability realm had an overwhelming advantage over the Purple Mansion realm, even if he was facing a vagabond cultivator¡­


    He couldn¡¯t afford to be the slightest bit careless.


    That Flying Snow was Hua Jun¡¯s lifebound flying sword, and he had spent more than half of his savings to create it.


    Why was Sword Control so difficult to cultivate?


    Because one of its requirements was a matching flying sword, and ordinary spiritual swords couldn¡¯t support it at all.


    After all, Sword Control essentially used divine sense to control the sword, so this flying sword naturally needed to be connected to the master at the deepest level.


    Only a lifebound flying sword could be controlled by divine sense and could operate as the master wished. With a thought, the flying sword could also be controlled.


    Also, this flying sword could still continue to grow in the end.


    The flying sword would also grow as one¡¯s mastery over Sword Control grew.


    During this process, the master¡¯s aura would invade the flying sword.


    It would slowly become one with the flying sword.


    A lifebound flying sword¡¯s power was far greater than ordinary spiritual flying swords.


    Because of these restrictions, Sword Control was also called the exclusive technique of the rich.


    as e


    A powerful flying sword was enough to make up for your lack of Sword Control.


    Therefore, in summary, when Hua Jun felt that his flying sword had been snatched away, he immediately became anxious!


    ¡°Don¡¯t run!¡±


    Hua Jun was no longer as cool as before and began to chase after Zhou Feng madly.


    This wasn¡¯t because Hua Jun was afraid that his flying sword would really be snatched away.


    His mark was on Flying Snow, and it could sense him no matter where he went.


    It was because he couldn¡¯t afford to lose face. He was a Divine Ability cultivator, and he was dealing with a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    To begin with, he was a bully, and it would be disgraceful if this were to be revealed.


    But now, Zhou Feng had snatched the flying sword away. If someone he knew met him, it would be true social death.

 Chapter 375 - Trump Cards! Lets See who Breaks!

    Chapter 375 Trump Cards! Let¡¯s See who Breaks!


    ¡°Thief! Stop!¡±


    Hua Jun wasted some time and finally caught up with Zhou Feng.


    No matter what, Hua Jun was a Divine Ability cultivator, so catching up with Zhou Feng was not a big deal.


    As he spoke, Hua Jun once again used a sword finger, and countless strands of Sword Qi spread out and surrounded Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Almost there!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately pulled out the flying sword in his body, and fresh blood began to spurt out like a fountain.


    The Sword Qi that had entered his body was too powerful.


    Even if he used a large amount of Blood Qi to suppress it, he could only barely do so.


    If he wanted to get rid of the rampant Sword Qi, he had to pull the flying sword out of his body. Otherwise, just its Sword Qi would be enough to exhaust him to death.


    He didn¡¯t pull it out earlier to lure Hua Jun to a place further away.


    Their earlier battleground was too close to Linxian City just now.


    Attacking there was simply courting death.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s people could provide support anytime and anywhere. On the contrary, Zhou Feng could not call for reinforcement, so he had to change to a better place even if he was fighting.


    He had already made up his mind to fight with Hua Jun so that those who coveted his things would know that he was not someone to be trifled with.


    ¡°Hmph! Die!¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng pull out Flying Snow, Hua Jun did not hold back.


    Flying Snow flew directly back into Hua Jun¡¯s hand with a thought.


    At the same time, a hidden strand of Sword Qi aimed at the center of Zhou Feng¡¯s brows.


    Compared to the previous Sword Qi, this Sword Qi did not make any sound.


    Like an invisible ghost, under the cover of the surrounding Sword Qi, it directly attacked Zhou Feng. After his carelessness last time, Hua Jun no longer wanted to be as embarrassed as before.


    He directly took out his trump card.


    This invisible Sword Qi could be considered Hua Jun¡¯s trump card.


    Once it was activated, not only would it be formless and incorporeal, but it would also be impossible to detect it, much less be mixed in with the Sword Qi.


    Even if others knew that Hua Jun had such a trump card, they would still be unable to defend against it.


    ¡®Soul Punch!


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng also used his strongest move.


    After forcefully exhausting half of his soul, his Invincible Avatar appeared.


    Hua Jun felt goosebumps all over his body.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Surprise appeared in Hua Jun¡¯s eyes.


    It was as if he was saying, ¡°What kind of move is this?¡±


    The two of them had only met for the first time, but they had already exchanged their trump cards.


    Probing? There was no such thing!


    It was a must for the other party to die!


    This was also very in line with the temperament of a sword cultivator.


    A reckless person like a sword cultivator would naturally play for real from the start.


    This was a pure killing move exchange. There were no fancy moves, nor were there any gorgeous and complicated moves.


    The moment the move was made, it was either you die, or I die!


    ¡®Dodge!


    Zhou Feng had sensed Hua Jun¡¯s invisible Sword Qi ahead of time.


    He had faintly sensed the invisible Sword Qi approaching him thanks to his soul power.


    Zhou Feng forcefully moved when he was hit with the support of his passive Battle Instinct.


    But even so, a part of his skull was cut off.


    Soon, the aura of death began to fill Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    This moment was the closest he was to death.


    Compared to before, Zhou Feng felt that he was really going to die now.


    The invisible Sword Qi began to invade his brain. His fragile brain could not withstand the sharp invisible Sword Qi at all.


    Even though he knew that he had a chance to be reborn, Zhou Feng still felt fear.


    This was an instinct, a fear of death.


    At the same time, his survival instinct kicked in, and he tried to save himself.


    He squeezed out the power in every inch of his flesh and blood in his body and gathered golden Blood Qi at the position of his head, temporarily suppressing the invisible Sword Qi¡¯s invasion.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng was pleasantly surprised to find that the Great Void Primordial Qi, which had been scattered all over his body earlier, had also been forced out.


    Although the Great Void Primordial Qi was very thin, it could suppress Hua Jun¡¯s invisible Sword Qi.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s side was not in danger for the time being


    However, Hua Jun¡¯s side was not very optimistic.


    That was because Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Punch directly attacked the soul.


    Hua Jun did not have a spiritual weapon that could resist the soul attacks. After all, sword cultivators did not need any other spiritual weapon to protect their bodies. They only needed a flying sword to roam the world.


    ¡°Pfft!¡±


    The terrifying soul attack made Hua Jun feel as if he had been hit hard, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.


    That feeling was as if a bat had bashed his head.


    Even Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword began to dim.


    Because the flying sword was connected to its master, the flying sword would also be affected if Hua Jun¡¯s soul was damaged.


    This was also a major drawback of sword cultivation. All of one¡¯s cultivation was centered around the flying sword.


    If the flying sword were damaged, the master would be affected.


    It was not difficult to target it.


    But in the eyes of many sword cultivators, this wasn¡¯t a problem at all.


    If the flying sword was damaged, it could only prove that one¡¯s cultivation wasn¡¯t good enough.


    A true master sword cultivator would be able to slash through anything with a single strike.


    It wouldn¡¯t be difficult at all.


    ¡°Soul attack! A mere Purple Mansion cultivator¡­¡±


    Hua Jun was extremely puzzled. He didn¡¯t understand how a Purple Mansion cultivator could use a soul attack.


    And this soul attack wasn¡¯t weak.


    Even with his Divine Ability soul, he was almost unable to withstand this attack.


    Could it be that this person¡¯s soul in front of him wasn¡¯t inferior to his?


    How was this possible?! How could a Purple Mansion cultivator¡¯s nascent soul compare to his?


    ¡°Soul attack! So what?¡±


    The unexpected soul attack didn¡¯t scare Hua Jun..


    Instead, it aroused Hua Jun¡¯s ferocity. He endured the needle-like pain and controlled Flying Snow. He wanted to end Zhou Feng with one sword attack.


    This was the tenacious part of sword cultivators. All of them were battle maniacs.


    They didn¡¯t know how to retreat, nor did they know how to defend. Unless they were really crushed, they wouldn¡¯t retreat at all. Under normal circumstances, the other cultivators weren¡¯t willing to provoke these maniacs.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face regained its calmness, and he only snorted coldly.


    After that, he didn¡¯t have any intention of retreating. The Great Void Primordial Qi temporarily suppressed the injuries on his head.


    He circulated the remaining Blood Qi and fiercely punched out. Dang!


    This punch just happened to hit the Flying Snow¡¯s body.


    Hua Jun, whose soul was damaged, used Sword Control at this time, but the power was greatly reduced compared to before.


    Zhou Feng even seized the opportunity and took this sword attack.


    However, Zhou Feng also paid a huge price. His right hand was left with more than ten wounds by the sharp Sword Qi.


    Because Hua Jun¡¯s soul had been damaged, his strength was greatly reduced, but Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was not reduced by much.


    On the contrary, because of the passive skills, the wounds on his body began to heal slowly.


    Both sides were in a stalemate for a moment.


    And don¡¯t forget! Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t fighting alone.


    Big Yellow, who had been by his side, had actually disappeared when the battle started.


    And Hua Jun hadn¡¯t noticed it at all.

 Chapter 376 - Both Sides Suffered Heavy Losses

    Chapter 376 Both Sides Suffered Heavy Losses


    ¡°It actually turned out like this!?¡±


    Hua Jun simply couldn¡¯t believe it. He was actually somewhat evenly matched with Zhou Feng, a Purple Mansion cultivator.


    Hua Jun didn¡¯t even dare to think about such a thing.


    But regardless of whether he could accept it or not, the reality was right here.


    Hua Jun, whose soul was injured, had no way to cut off Zhou Feng at the first moment.


    Moreover, although Zhou Feng kept accumulating new injuries, these injuries were recovering at astonishing speed.


    It seemed like Zhou Feng still had a slight advantage, but in reality, he had to stop this battle as soon as possible.


    If this dragged on, he would probably die of exhaustion.


    Although the Soul Punch¡¯s effect was very good and had taken Hua Jun¡¯s soul by surprise, it also caused great damage to Zhou Feng¡¯s own soul.


    Right now, he was only forcing himself not to fall asleep.


    A huge wave of sleepiness had already enveloped Zhou Feng.


    This was the instinctive reaction of his body after his soul was damaged.


    It wanted to repair his damaged soul through deep sleep slowly.


    ¡®I have to speed up! Big Yellow!¡¯


    Zhou Feng secretly communicated with Big Yellow in his heart.


    A strange smell suddenly rose up in the surroundings, and a poisonous fog rose up.


    ¡°Is this your last trump card? Do you think I didn¡¯t notice that the dog had disappeared?¡±


    Hua Jun snorted coldly and changed his previous posture.


    It turned out that under Zhou Feng¡¯s orders, Big Yellow had started to release poison in the surroundings. Since he had the passive Spirit Pet Heart, Zhou Feng had been actively thinking about how he could make Big Yellow become his fighting assistant.


    Fight with him in a frontal battle?


    This simply didn¡¯t work. Big Yellow didn¡¯t have Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying battle strength at all.


    In addition, the enemies he faced were usually quite strong.


    If they fought together, it would be too much pressure for Big Yellow.


    The Mountain Spirit Hound¡¯s battle strength wasn¡¯t particularly strong. Even if it inherited a part of Zhou Feng¡¯s strength, it wasn¡¯t enough to fight in a frontal battle.


    Therefore, Big Yellow would have a supportive role.


    Once the battle started, the first thing to do was to escape and pull away first.


    After Zhou Feng completely attracted the enemy¡¯s attention, Big Yellow would slowly assist from the dark.


    This was also for the sake of Big Yellow¡¯s safety.


    Then how should he assist him? The simplest support method should be to release poison.


    After all, Zhou Feng himself was not afraid of poison due to the passive Poison Immunity.


    Big Yellow could release poison without restriction, directly enveloping Zhou Feng and the enemy together.


    Zhou Feng had even picked up the Carefree Powder he was researching back in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    He had revised it again and combined it with other random poisons to create a poison fog.


    This type of poison fog did not differentiate between friend and foe.


    It had to be said Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude was not very good in the research of poisons either.


    However, he could resist the poison, and his body was extremely healthy. He was completely capable of experimenting on himself.


    Others had to be careful when researching a poison, afraid that they would kill themselves.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng was like a boorish man. No matter what taboos they were, he would just randomly experiment.


    He would try until he succeeded.


    In any case, with his current knowledge, he could not concoct a poison that could ignore the passive Poison Immunity.


    There was a vent during the battle between Zhou Feng and Hua Jun.


    Big Yellow skillfully used the storage ring hanging around his neck to throw out some bottles and jars.


    Some of them were colorless and tasteless, some were pungent and eye-catching, and some looked very exaggerated.


    One look and one could tell that they were deadly poisons.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    After doing all this, Big Yellow barked and moved away swiftly.


    It had to be said that although these strange poisons were slightly useful, they were still not enough to deal with people like Hua Jun.


    The Sword Qi isolated the poisonous fog outside of his body.


    ¡°I was a little worried that the big yellow dog would do something, but now it seems that I was overthinking!¡±


    ¡°Wind Call!¡±


    Hua Jun took a deep breath, and the surroundings began to change drastically.


    At first, it was just a slight breeze, but the wind grew stronger and stronger.


    It blew away the poisonous fog, and there were traces of Sword Qi in the wind.


    WE


    The wind of Sword Qi was like cutting flesh and bones.


    Wind Call Ability!


    This was the second divine ability that Hua Jun cultivated. The first divine ability he cultivated was Sword Control.


    After breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, Hua Jun immediately started cultivating the second divine ability.


    That was the Wind Call Ability or Wind Call for short. It was a divine ability that could directly change the environment of the world. It could even be combined with Rain Summoning to become one of the 36 Great Divine Abilities, Storm.


    Previously, Hua Jun¡¯s soul had been injured by Zhou Feng due to his carelessness.


    And the disappearance of Big Yellow had also made Hua Jun very nervous.


    He did not want to take any chances. From the exchange just now, he understood just how strange this person in front of him was.


    That was why Hua Jun had been testing him previously.


    Only after testing out Zhou Feng¡¯s foundation did he go all out.


    ¡®Damn it! Use your flying sword!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was covered in small wounds, but his expression didn¡¯t change at all.


    But in his heart, he was a little anxious.


    He had never thought that Wind Call would be so terrifying


    The strong wind that was everywhere was like a meat cleaver, constantly scraping away his flesh and blood.


    Moreover, there was no room to dodge. After all, how could one dodge the wind?


    Other than fighting head-on, there was no other way.


    Facing Hua Jun, who had mastered two divine abilities, Zhou Feng felt powerless.


    However, this did not mean that he did not have the chance to turn the tables.


    Zhou Feng had already found out that the flying sword and Hua Jun¡¯s lives were connected.


    As long as that flying sword was heavily damaged, Hua Jun would definitely suffer a backlash.


    And this was also his chance to turn the tables.


    As expected, as a sword cultivator, Hua Jun naturally wanted to use the flying sword against his opponent.


    Flying Snow started emitting a biting cold air with a thought.


    It turned into a ray of light and aimed at the center of Zhou Feng¡¯s brows.


    Moreover, the sword¡¯s speed skyrocketed under Wind Call¡¯s augmentation.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s pupils constricted slightly as he had been waiting for this moment.


    He completely gave up on defense and let the terrifying sword tear his body apart.


    Blood Qi erupted from his entire body. At the critical moment, the index finger of his right hand touched the body of this flying sword.


    ¡°Ding!¡±


    That was an extremely clear sound.


    Under Hua Jun¡¯s incredulous gaze, a crack actually appeared on Flying Snow¡¯s body.


    This crack was extremely tiny, but Hua Jun could feel it because this was his lifebound flying sword. This was the flying sword that he had spent most of his wealth to forge.


    How could it be possible for someone to use their physical body to create a crack!?


    This was an impossible thing to happen!


    Hua Jun looked as if he had seen a ghost.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Big Yellow suddenly rushed out from the side, carried Zhou Feng on his back, and quickly fled deep into the mountains.


    Hua Jun was in shock and did not have much thought to chase after him when he saw this.


    His only thought was to see if Flying Snow was seriously damaged.


    This battle ended with both sides suffering heavy losses.

 Chapter 377 - The Refined Big Yellow

    Chapter 377 The Refined Big Yellow


    Hua Jun didn¡¯t even want to chase after Zhou Feng. Instead, he quickly hugged his flying sword and carefully observed it.


    As expected, there was a crack on the snow-white body of the sword.


    Within this crack, there was actually a trace of shattering intent.


    Although this trace of shattering intent was very thin, it was very firm.


    Moreover, this crack would only grow bigger and bigger if it wasn¡¯t treated.


    ¡°Why! What kind of trick did this thief use!?¡±


    Seeing this tiny crack, Hua Jun felt his heart bleeding.


    In order to forge this flying sword, he had already spent all his savings.


    He even owed a lot of favors, and for this, he had even gone to Linxian City to guard it.


    He had to repair it quickly!


    Although such a small crack had an impact, the final impact shouldn¡¯t be big if it was repaired well.


    When he broke through to the Dragon Transformation realm, he should be able to have a chance to reforge it. ¡°That person¡­ Could it be a disciple of another holy land? A mere Purple Mansion cultivator¡­¡±


    Hua Jun¡¯s surging emotions slowly calmed down as he began to think about Zhou Feng¡¯s identity.


    He hadn¡¯t gone easy on Zhou Feng, using all of his strength and trump cards.


    But even so, he still couldn¡¯t take down Zhou Feng.


    Although Hua Jun¡¯s carelessness was a factor, Hua Jun was still a Divine Ability cultivator.


    Zhou Feng was just a mere Purple Mansion cultivator. This sort of result was truly hard to accept.


    ¡°Bah! No matter who you are! Next time, you won¡¯t be able to escape!¡±


    Hua Jun spat out a mouthful of blood and placed the flying snow back onto the Soul Altar to recuperate.


    Then, he took out a healing pill and began to recover.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Zhou Feng appeared to be in a much more miserable state. His eyelids were so heavy that he could not even open them.


    Compared to Hua Jun, who still had the energy to continue fighting, Zhou Feng had almost no ability to continue fighting.


    His soul power had been exhausted, so he had to start to sleep and recover immediately.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng was not alone at the moment.


    With Big Yellow protecting him at the side, he was also much safer.


    However, before he fell asleep, he forced himself to be alert and explained some things to Big Yellow.


    ¡°Big Yellow! I¡¯ll give you my storage ring for the time being. It contains the poisons I concocted previously, as well as some medicinal herbs¡­¡±


    As he didn¡¯t know how long he would be asleep, Zhou Feng gave the storage ring to Big Yellow to manage. The storage ring contained all sorts of materials that he had plundered along the way, as well as a few poisons.


    These things were all handed over to Big Yellow, and then Big Yellow was allowed to use poison to construct a safe area.


    Big Yellow would have to create a poisonous fog area that ordinary people would not dare to enter.


    After giving out these things, Zhou Feng still forcefully held on and did not fall into a deep sleep.


    He needed to find a suitable place to fall into a deep sleep.


    And before he fell into a deep sleep, he used the passive Bloodline Simulation to change his identity.


    This was to prevent someone from using some special methods to find him.


    ¡°Good! This is the place!¡±


    In the end, Zhou Feng chose a swamp as his foothold.


    The location of this swamp was very remote, very far from the Celestial Lake.


    There were all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts around.


    He used his last bit of strength to open up a small underground cave nearby.


    Then, he took a few things out of his storage


    ring.


    One was a luminous pearl, and the other was a small formation flag.


    The last was a Treasure Pearl. This Treasure Pearl was a good item for training as it could change the environment of a small area, temporarily turning the nearby area into a fake cave abode.


    This item was not cheap at all. Zhou Feng had spent a lot of Spirit Stones to buy it back then.


    Next, Zhou Feng took out a cushion and lay down on it, falling into a deep sleep.


    ¡°Woof?¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng, who was gradually calming down, Big Yellow let out a soft cry.


    Realizing that he did not respond, he also began to stare blankly.


    After a while, Big Yellow had rested enough and began to fiddle with the storage ring on his neck.


    Speaking of which, Big Yellow had learned how to use this storage ring not too long ago.


    After breaking through to the Spirit General rank, Big Yellow¡¯s intelligence had been constantly rising


    Not to mention, with the passive Spirit Pet Heart¡¯s blessing, although Big Yellow couldn¡¯t speak yet, he was not inferior to humans when it came to communicating.


    Big Yellow took out the various poisons in its storage ring.


    Then, he followed Zhou Feng¡¯s instructions and released some poison fog nearby.


    Moreover, Big Yellow was very smart and did not release these poisons at the place where Zhou Feng was staying.


    nor


    It would be too strange if the other places were normal, while only the place where Zhou Feng was staying had poison fog. Big Yellow planned to turn the nearby area into a poisonous fog zone to cover up the fact that Zhou Feng was there.


    ¡°Woof?¡±


    Big Yellow checked through the storage ring and found some books on concocting poison.


    Zhou Feng had collected them to learn how to concoct poison. It was too difficult to concoct poison by relying on one¡¯s own hands.


    There were also some that he collected from the enemies.


    When he returned to the Tri-Gu Sect, Zhou Feng killed many people who had turned into fiendish demons. These people had had all kinds of things on them.


    Zhou Feng was not picky about food. He would put everything into his storage ring as long as it seemed useful.


    The storage ring was big enough anyway. He had already forgotten where he had gotten the storage ring was using.


    Not only was it large in size, but it was also extremely sturdy.


    Then, an astonishing thing happened.


    Big Yellow started reading those books with great interest.


    With regards to human characters, Big Yellow undoubtedly knew them. With his Spirit General strength, just reading them wasn¡¯t difficult.


    Still¡­ a dog was seriously reading a book. This was something that most cultivators had never seen before.


    Even Zhou Feng himself might not have expected that Big Yellow would be so eager to learn.


    Then, an even more mind-blowing thing happened- Big Yellow began to try to concoct poison.


    Although he was very clever, his paws were not as sensitive as human hands.


    However, with the help of spiritual power, Big Yellow successfully concocted a dose of poison.


    Strange things happened every day, and there were a lot of them this year.


    A dog actually learned by itself and started concocting poison by itself. It was really f*cking ridiculous.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know anything about this.


    At present, he was in a deep sleep, and a large amount of spiritual power was consumed.


    It would be unable to wake up in a short period.


    At Linxian City¡­


    ¡°Hey, hey! Did you hear? Guardian Hua actually failed and returned!¡±


    ¡°Not only did I hear about it, but I also saw it with my own eyes. Guardian Hua¡¯s flying sword seems to have cracked!¡±


    ¡°What!? The flying sword is cracked? How is that possible! Are you trying to please the


    public?¡±


    ¡°This is all true. Guardian Hua is currently looking for someone to repair his flying sword!¡±


    II


    11


    Many people were discussing the matter of Hua Jun returning after failing.


    Everyone thought that Zhou Feng was dead for sure. A Purple Mansion cultivator had dared to make a move in Linxian City and had even killed the City Lord Manor¡¯s guards.


    This was an extraordinarily bold move.


    But in the end, the result was completely unexpected.


    Guardian Hua, who had been chasing after Zhou Feng, had actually failed! And even the flying sword was cracked.


    This was simply big news! It was like a lion hunting a rabbit, but in the end, the lion failed!


    It was simply absurd.

 Chapter 378 - Awakened

    Chapter 378 Awakened


    ¡°He failed? Hua Jun actually failed?¡±


    ¡°This is true. However, according to Hua Jun¡¯s words, even if that person didn¡¯t die, he was still heavily injured!¡±


    Ming Lihua was now even more interested in Zhou Feng. Who exactly was this person? He managed to survive when Hua Jun was his opponent.


    Purple Mansion realm versus Divine Ability realm. This was undoubtedly a crushing blow.


    But the final result was so unexpected.


    Ming Lihua had never doubted Hua Jun¡¯s strength. He was a truly blessed child of the heavens. Having comprehended two divine abilities might not be much in the main headquarters of the Jade Sword Holy Land, but he was considered one of the best in Linxian City. Even so, he still failed.


    ¡°Use all your strength to search for traces of this person. If possible, don¡¯t take the initiative to attack. This person is worth roping in.¡±


    Ming Lihua quickly began to mobilize her family¡¯s forces to search for traces of Zhou Feng


    Other than the Ming Clan, many other forces were doing the same thing. Ignoring everything else, just hi Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was enough for them to move out together.


    This was a heavily injured Purple Mansion cultivator. This was an excellent opportunity to pick up scraps.


    It wasn¡¯t just those aristocratic clans. Even some vagabond cultivators were displaying their divine abilities.


    Swer


    They wanted to find out where Zhou Feng was so that they could pick up scraps.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng had already used the passive Bloodline Simulation to change his aura.


    In addition to the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth, there wouldn¡¯t be any marks left on his body.


    Thus, no one found Zhou Feng¡¯s hiding place.


    Time passed¡­


    After Zhou Feng and Hua Jun¡¯s battle, half a month had passed.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s popularity also slowly faded.


    During this period, some people caught the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. The Xia Clan¡¯s son-in-law selection ceremony was also progressing like wildfire.


    Xia Chunqiu, this slightly male-biased name, was actually the name of the Xia Clan¡¯s fairy.


    Especially when the Xia Clan publicly announced that their eldest daughter had comprehended the third divine ability, it attracted the attention of all the nearby cultivators.


    With such talent, coupled with Xia Chungiu¡¯s appearance, countless cultivators wanted to take this opportunity to ascend to the heavens.


    This time, even some of the direct descendants of the large clans couldn¡¯t sit still.


    There were always some who didn¡¯t have a good aptitude among the many direct descendants.


    For these direct descendants, if they had a fairy as their wife, it wouldn¡¯t be too bad.


    In any case, they wouldn¡¯t be able to enjoy the top resources in their clans.


    It would be better to marry into the clan.


    Xia Chunqiu had already been internally appointed as the Xia Clan¡¯s leader. The husband of the Xia Clan¡¯s leader¡ªthis title was much better than a direct descendant who sounded good.


    Thus, countless direct descendants who weren¡¯t pampered ended up vying for her hand.


    However, there was one thing that was worth noting. Although many people caught the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, none of them fell into the Xia Clan¡¯s hands.


    An invisible alliance monopolized the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. Even a force like the Xia Clan could not snatch them.


    This was also something that many cultivators did not expect.


    They even began to ask if there was something special about this Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    For this reason, the Xia Clan had no choice but to change the conditions for finding a son-in-law.


    They simply built a Waterside Pavilion in the middle of the Celestial Lake and set up many obstacles around it.


    They invited all the cultivators to this Waterside Pavilion for a martial competition to find a son-in-law.


    After going around and around, they finally returned to this primitive method.


    No matter what was said, strength was eternal.


    If they wanted to take the fairy of the Xia Clan, they still had to rely on strength.


    Moreover, taking advantage of this opportunity, the Xia Clan also organized an auction at the Waterside Pavilion in the lake.


    They invited a group of cultivators to come and bid and auction.


    The Xia Clan planned to make a fortune by taking advantage of this opportunity. At the same time, they wanted to increase the reputation of the Xia Clan.


    This method was similar to Celestial Lake City.


    Because of the Celestial Lake, the cultivators here were relatively rich and had accumulated a lot of good things.


    They took advantage of this opportunity to make a move. It was likely that the Xia Clan wouldn¡¯t dare to do anything at such a grand event.


    If it was known that the Xia Clan was secretly playing tricks, then the other families could take the opportunity to suppress the Xia Clan ruthlessly.


    Also, the Waterside Pavilion wasn¡¯t in Linxian City.


    This was a critical point. If the place where the Xia Clan held the auction was in Linxian City, many vagabond cultivators might not dare to take out their items.


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how long he had been asleep.


    He had a headache! The intense headache woke him up from his deep sleep.


    ¡°I¡¯m¡­¡±


    He struggled to open his eyes, and then a sense of exhaustion spread throughout his body.


    At that moment, bits of memories from before he fell asleep slowly surfaced.


    After spending some time, he finally understood what his current situation was.


    ¡°I should use the Soul Punch less in the future!¡±


    This Soul Punch consumed too much of his nascent soul¡¯s power.


    Until now, his nascent soul had been dim, and he didn¡¯t know how much time it would take to recover.


    But fortunately, after paying such a huge price, he finally managed to repel Hua Jun.


    Of course, the passive Celestial Forefinger had been a great help. If not for this passive, he wouldn¡¯t have managed to crack Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword. Celestial Forefinger: Your right forefinger will become abnormally strong, with a hint of shattering intent.


    That hint of shattering intent was really useful against spiritual artifacts and flying swords. Moreover, it did not waste any energy when activated.


    Also, it was sufficiently concealed and very difficult for others to discover it.


    However, this Hua Jun was also very strong.


    Zhou Feng had used not only his trump card, the Soul Punch, but also used the Celestial Forefinger and other passive skills.


    In the end, he fought until both sides suffered heavy losses. ¡°I have to break through to the Divine Ability realm!¡±


    Zhou Feng had already made up his mind to enter seclusion here.


    The strength of the Purple Mansion realm wasn¡¯t enough for him to travel freely.


    At the very least, he had to be a Divine Ability cultivator to have that bit of confidence. Otherwise, if he met a cultivator who exceeded Hua Jun¡¯s strength, he would still be half dead even if he didn¡¯t die.


    Speaking of which, he had been gunning for the Divine Ability realm for a long time.


    However, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t do much. His aptitude was completely inferior to those freaks.


    Breaking through to the Divine Ability realm would still waste a lot of time.


    ¡°Fortunately! With the help of the spiritual fragrance and Celestial Qi, I should be able to break through soon!¡±


    If he only relied on himself to break through, Zhou Feng would probably need a few more years before he could be confident. But now, with the Whale King fragrance and the Celestial Qi, he was confident that he could break through in a short time.


    ¡°Speaking of which, where did Big Yellow go?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked around, but he did not find any traces of Big Yellow.


    Then, he directly used the spiritual connection to search for Big Yellow¡¯s location. ¡°Woof!¡±


    As if he had sensed that Zhou Feng had woken up, Big Yellow rushed into the cave, looking extremely excited.


    However, Big Yellow¡¯s current appearance was very strange.


    Its golden and soft fur had become colorful, and there were some medicinal herbs in his mouth? What was he doing?

 Chapter 379 - Pervert?

    Chapter 379 Pervert?


    ¡°Big Yellow, what are you doing?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately stopped Big Yellow from moving closer to him.


    He didn¡¯t remember that Big Yellow liked to eat these medicinal herbs.


    Then, he also realized that something was wrong. There were many bottles and jars scattered around.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow appeared to be very excited. It turns out that while Zhou Feng was asleep, Big Yellow had been bored.


    Big Yellow¡¯s intelligence had not been so high in the past, so he would be in a daze most of the time.


    Due to the improvement of his wisdom, Big Yellow was no longer satisfied with being in a daze and began to think.


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng had handed him the storage ring


    Thus, Big Yellow had rummaged through the things in the storage ring and flipped through some books on concocting poison. After that, it was as if Big Yellow¡¯s conception and governing vessels had been opened, and he researched poison concoctions.


    At first, Big Yellow had almost completely failed.


    He had produced a pile of rubbish.


    Big Yellow gradually found the trick and learned how to use his keen sense of smell to discern whether the process was good or wrong.


    After fiddling around, Big Yellow accomplished something-he improved the Carefree Powder!


    The Carefree Powder was a special aphrodisiac that Zhou Feng had researched when he was weak. He had developed it in order to gain an advantage in battle.


    Then, as his strength increased rapidly, the Carefree Powder became useless.


    Naturally, he gave up.


    But now, Big Yellow picked it up and improved it. He relied on his dog nose and terrifying drug resistance.


    Big Yellow had improved it more than ten times, and the Carefree Powder now was completely different from before.


    Later on, because the medicinal herbs used to make the Carefree Powder were all used up, Big Yellow opened up a medicinal field and planted the herbs there.


    Unexpectedly, while Big Yellow was happily planting the field, Zhou Feng suddenly woke


    up.


    After understanding all of this, the corners of Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth could not help but twitch. At this moment, he did not know what to say at


    all.


    but he also grew medicinal herbs on his own. It was simply heaven-defying.


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng had a lot of things he wanted to say, but when he saw Big Yellow wagging its tail beside him, he was at a loss for words.


    What could he do? He could only say that Big Yellow was happy.


    No matter what, Big Yellow had something that he liked to do.


    He was no longer in a daze like before.


    And this should be considered a good thing. This meant that Big Yellow¡¯s intelligence had already reached an extremely high level.


    Perhaps, after Big Yellow broke through to the Spirit King rank, it would be possible for him to speak human language.


    ¡°Big Yellow, you being happy is all that matters. I¡¯m going out later. You will remain here and look after the cave!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not care what Big Yellow wanted to do.


    Right now, his soul was severely damaged. It was better to recover the soul injury.


    Only after recovering would he have the confidence to make a breakthrough.


    It was relatively easy for Zhou Feng to recover.


    He had the passive Soul Harvesting, so every time he killed a cultivator, he had a chance to obtain a bit of soul and increase his soul power. Now, Zhou Feng wanted to go fishing and lure some cultivators into attacking him.


    He chose to leave the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish in this temporary cave abode for safety reasons.


    That was why he had asked Big Yellow to take good care of the cave. ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow responded to him with a loud cry. At the same time, he held a bottle in his mouth.


    Inside this bottle was the Carefree Powder that Big Yellow had concocted.


    Zhou Feng instantly understood what Big Yellow meant.


    ¡°Good! It¡¯s a good opportunity to test your skills!¡±


    He didn¡¯t reject Big Yellow¡¯s good intentions.


    It just so happened that he was using another identity. The previous method wasn¡¯t easy to use, so he could disguise himself as a poison expert.


    That way, the risk of being exposed would be much lower.


    After everything was settled, Zhou Feng set off.


    His fishing plan was very simple. He would pretend to be a lone wolf cultivator and catch spirit fish in the Celestial Lake.


    Furthermore, he would occasionally leak out some good stuff.


    Under normal circumstances, there would definitely be cultivators who could not control their greed and took the bait.


    Lone Wolf! Itinerant cultivator! Rich!


    These few words were equivalent to big fat sheep in the wild. Zhou Feng was not afraid that no cultivator would take the bait.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng began his alternative fishing trip.


    ¡°Have you all heard about it recently? There¡¯s a lone wolf cultivator nearby.¡±


    ¡°What lone wolf cultivator? Is this person very strong?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s not very strong, but his methods are truly despicable.¡± ¡°Despicable?¡±


    A few cultivators talked about the perverted cultivator who had risen to fame recently.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This person¡¯s methods are extremely despicable. I heard that he would intentionally lure cultivators, regardless of gender!¡±


    ¡°Then, he would secretly use a very strange aphrodisiac¡­¡± These people were vividly telling the story of this so-called perverted cultivator. It turned out that Zhou Feng had been using the Carefree Powder BY to kill some cultivators recently. After killing a lot of cultivators, he had also made a name for himself.


    Pervert Wolf! This was a publicly recognized


    title.


    Anyone who this perverted cultivator hunted would die with a red face and red ears.


    The men would die with a pillar holding up the sky, while the women would die with a fountain overflowing in all directions.


    That appearance was simply terrifying!


    Speaking of which, Zhou Feng was also somewhat speechless. This was because the effect of the Carefree Powder BY was really good.


    Not only was it colorless and tasteless, but it could also be slowly stacked and controlled by spiritual power.


    Those who attacked Zhou Feng because of greed would all die without exception.


    At first, Zhou Feng was still a little unused to


    But later on, he slowly got used to it. In any case, he would only hunt those who attacked him.


    As long as there was no greed in one¡¯s heart and they could control his actions, then basically nothing would happen.


    As for his reputation, firstly, Zhou Feng did not really care about it.


    Secondly, he was currently using a fake identity. Whether they deemed him as a pervert or not did not matter to him.


    Soon! My soul is about to recover! The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish should also be about to recover!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed that his originally dim soul was about to recover to its original state.


    He only needed to trigger the passive Soul Harvesting a few more times.


    The injury on his soul would be completely healed, and then he would be able to try to break through to the Divine Ability realm. Also, the immortal spiritual mirror fish recovered quite well.


    In order to speed up the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish¡¯s recovery, Zhou Feng had put the Crystal Warm Jade into the small pond that was temporarily housing the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish quickly recovered thanks to the Crystal Warm Jade¡¯s pure Spiritual Qi.


    It should be able to produce a trace of Celestial Qi in a short while, allowing Zhou Feng to attempt a breakthrough.

 Chapter 380 - About to Breakthrough

    Chapter 380 About to Breakthrough


    ¡°I still need to accumulate more Blood Qi!¡±


    Zhou Feng used a simple fishing rod and started to fish.


    There were all kinds of fish around him, most of them Blackbear Fish. Their meat was very delicious.


    It was also because of these spirit fish that Zhou Feng was able to lure those greedy people into attacking him. After all, if he sold all the spirit fish on the ground, he would be able to exchange them for a lot of Spirit Stones. As for the cultivators who didn¡¯t take the initiative to attack him, he didn¡¯t care.


    Therefore, the name Pervert Wolf was spread.


    Now, many people knew that there was a strange man fishing by the lake. He could catch many spirit fish with a broken stick.


    However, if you had malicious intentions, your death would be very horrible.


    That kind of shameful death was really hard to describe.


    This kind of rumor attracted many cultivators to come here.


    ¡°Is it that strange man?¡± ¡°Yes! It¡¯s him! As long as you don¡¯t take the initiative to attack, there should be no danger.¡±


    ¡°How did he do it? How could he subdue the Blackbear Fish so easily?¡±


    ¡°So powerful!¡±


    Many people were observing Zhou Feng¡¯s every move from afar.


    They let out surprised cries especially after seeing those ferocious Blackbear Fish being easily subdued.


    After all, the Blackbear Fish were famous for their ferocity.


    But now, they looked like ordinary fish in front of Zhou Feng


    In fact, it was very simple. Zhou Feng used a medicine, causing the Blackbear Fish to lose consciousness.


    Although the Blackbear Fish were ferocious, they didn¡¯t have much defense against the secret medicine.


    The moment Zhou Feng caught a fish, it would be mesmerized by the knockout drug.


    Speaking of which, this was Big Yellow¡¯s invention.


    Big Yellow is becoming more and more intelligent.


    Sometimes, Zhou felt that Big Yellow was getting too clever.


    Not only had he read all of Zhou Feng¡¯s books on pill refinement and concocting poison, but he could also ponder and make analyses.


    This was because Big Yellow could sniff out that something was wrong with his sense of smell.. If he used too many medicinal herbs, he would use less later.


    A dog was actually better at alchemy than most humans.


    No one would believe this if this were to be said.


    However, if one thought about it carefully, it seemed quite reasonable.


    Alchemy skills were never exclusive to humans.


    Regardless of whether it was demonic beasts or aquatic creatures, they would all gain alchemy skills after awakening their intelligence.


    Moreover, because of some special racial talents, they would have an advantage in certain aspects.


    The only advantage that human Pill Masters had was probably the number of people.


    How long would it take for a person to summarize, continuously experiment, and then pass it down from generation to generation?


    The other races¡¯ Pill Master population wasn¡¯t big. They simply couldn¡¯t be like humans, constantly trial and error.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s knockout drug was named Knockout.


    Although Knockout was powerful, it was very pungent and had to be used in large quantities.


    Only a silly fish like the Blackbear Fish could fall for it.


    If it were used against cultivators, it wouldn¡¯t be of any use.


    Those cultivators were all crafty and cunning. Being colorless and odorless was already the most basic standard. Otherwise, no cultivator would fall for it. Unless it were a poisonous fog, the opponent wouldn¡¯t be able to dodge it.


    ¡°You! Are you that perverted cultivator? I heard that you have a particularly powerful medicine in your hands!¡±


    While Zhou Feng was in deep thoughts, a rough voice entered his ears.


    A middle-aged man was standing behind him.


    This man looked very strong. At first glance, he looked like a bear, and there were all kinds of scars on his face.


    There was also a green bead around this man¡¯s neck.


    This bead would occasionally give off a refreshing fragrance.


    ¡®Is it useless? As expected, the medicine is still a small trick, even if Big Yellow has modified it.¡¯


    Zhou Feng soon realized that Carefree Powder BY had no effect on this man.


    The reason was very likely that green bead.


    ¡°Stop looking! The bead on my neck is a Hundred Herbs Bead. It can detoxify 100 poisons. Your aphrodisiac has no effect on


    me!¡±


    The brawny man carefully observed Zhou Feng¡¯s expression as he circulated his spiritual power with all his might, ready to escape at any time.


    He was betting that Zhou Feng was not a so-called expert. Instead, he was a wandering cultivator who was putting on an act. Zhou Feng¡¯s actions indicated he was definitely not a disciple of a large clan.


    wa


    The disciples of large clans would not waste so much time fishing here.


    This was because the time of those disciples of large clans was very precious. Almost all of their time was spent on cultivation. Although the spirit fish that Zhou Feng caught were expensive, those disciples simply did not take them seriously. Moreover, even if they wanted to catch the spirit fish in the Celestial Lake, those arrogant disciples wouldn¡¯t choose this place. Therefore, the probability of Zhou Feng being a vagabond cultivator was very high.


    ¡®Hundred Herb Bead?¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed the people around him. There were more and more cultivators surrounding him.


    Killing them should be enough.


    He didn¡¯t want to continue fishing like this. His main job was to keep a low profile and develop himself.


    ¡°He doesn¡¯t even recognize the Hundred Herb Bead! As expected! My guess is right!¡±


    After the brawny man noticed that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t recognize the Hundred Herb Bead, a trace of wild joy flashed through his eyes.


    The person in front of him was indeed a vagabond cultivator. He actually didn¡¯t recognize the Hundred Herb Bead.


    This Hundred Herb Bead was a standard detoxifying bead, and it was sold in many large cities.


    It was refined from dozens of herbs and was immune to most poisons. The only drawback was that its shelf life was very short.


    Once refined, it only had a shelf life of about 100 days.


    Once the shelf life was over, the medicinal effects would continue to weaken.


    Zhou Feng felt a trace of killing intent.


    So now, he didn¡¯t need to hold back at all.


    He didn¡¯t even need to explode out with the Blood Qi in his body.


    Zhou Feng only used the Starseizer Steps, and his right index finger slightly tapped on the head of the person in front of him.


    In an instant, red and white splattered everywhere.


    The person in front of him was only at the Purple Mansion realm, and Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t afraid at all when facing a Divine Ability expert.


    Not to mention an ordinary Purple Mansion expert.


    ¡°Soul power +1!¡±


    The moment this person died, the passive Soul Harvesting was instantly triggered.


    Zhou Feng immediately felt a hint of coolness, and the collected soul power began to repair his damaged soul.


    ¡°Run!¡±


    ¡°This speed¡­¡±


    This strange scene scared the onlookers.


    At that moment, the first thought in most of their minds was to run.


    Zhou Feng searched the storage bag with ease and then put all the spirit fish on the ground into his storage ring.


    ¡°It¡¯s time to break through to the Divine Ability realm!¡±


    He felt that his soul had almost recovered.


    Next, he could try to break through.


    Hopefully, everything would be smooth when he breaks through!

 Chapter 381 - Finally! The Divine Ability Realm!

    Chapter 381 Finally! The Divine Ability Realm!


    After Zhou Feng left the Celestial Lake, he didn¡¯t immediately return to his temporary cave abode.


    Instead, he took a stroll and used his passive Bloodline Simulation to change his aura to another person.


    Finally, he returned to the cave.


    The cave that he had temporarily opened previously had a huge change. The water around the cave was filled with water plants and poisonous miasma.


    If one looked from afar, this was just a dangerous swamp. Zhou Feng spent some time entering the cave.


    The interior of the cave had undergone a huge renovation.


    Not only was the space much larger, but there were even many rooms.


    Big Yellow used them to grow medicinal herbs. Only the innermost room was a reinforced isolation room. ¡°Big Yellow!¡±


    The moment Zhou Feng entered the cave, he saw Big Yellow refining pills.


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t hear misread!


    Big Yellow was refining pills.


    That dog paw waved wildly in the air, controlling the medicinal herbs in the cauldron.


    After hearing his voice, Big Yellow didn¡¯t turn around. He only let out a soft cry, indicating that he had already heard.


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng could not help but shake his head.


    Big Yellow was addicted.


    He had never thought Big Yellow would become addicted to refining pills. Moreover, he was out of control.


    ¡®You are clearly a dog. Why are you addicted to refining pills?¡¯


    Although it was a little hard to accept, Big Yellow¡¯s talent was also a good thing.


    In terms of combat, Big Yellow was destined to not be able to give him much help.


    If Big Yellow could become a Pill Master, he could be considered a great assistant.


    ¡°Big Yellow, remember to rest. Also, I¡¯m going into seclusion to achieve a breakthrough. Don¡¯t let anyone disturb me!¡±


    Zhou Feng only gave a simple instruction before heading straight to the deepest seclusion room.


    Big Yellow barked, indicating that it understood.


    Moreover, after refining this cauldron of medicinal pills, he was fully focused on standing guard. He didn¡¯t want anyone to disturb Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng built this temporary cave residence into an impregnable fortress during this period.


    Under normal circumstances, no one should be able to break through in a short period.


    He had just instructed Big Yellow to be cautious.


    In the seclusion room¡­


    This temporary seclusion room was inlaid with a large number of luminous pearls. Even underground, it was as if it was daytime. Then, there was a small pool with many aquatic plants at the side, and in the center was the Crystal Warm Jade.


    The Celestial Spiritmirror Fish was currently living in this small pool.


    ¡°Little Fish, sorry for the trouble!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the still somewhat dispirited Celestial Spiritmirror Fish. After Celestial Spiritmirror Fish heard his words, it nodded, Then, it used all of its strength and spat out half a thread of Celestial Qi. This half thread of Celestial Qi was like a rainbow. It was dreamy and illusory as if it was going to disappear at any moment.


    After the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish spat out this half thread of Celestial Qi, it became even weaker.


    It could only continuously swallow and spit out the pure Spiritual Qi from the Crystal Warm Jade. The entire fish did not move at all.


    Taking this opportunity, Zhou Feng lit up three licenses immediately.


    This time, if he did not succeed, he would die!


    He had to comprehend the Great Void Primordial Art in one go and break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    With the help of the incense and the Celestial Qi, Zhou Feng quickly entered a trance and wandered into the great void.


    The feeling of his soul wandering in the void was too wonderful.


    Especially with the support of the Celestial Qi, he seemed to be assisted by God. All kinds of principles of heaven and earth flowed in his heart.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s perception of time, it seemed as if only a second had passed.


    Threads of Great Void Primordial Qi began to condense in his body.


    It was done! This time, there was no such situation where he was exhausted afterward. The condensation was extremely smooth. Finally, after experiencing so many tribulations, he had finally comprehended the Great Void Primordial Art.


    Moreover, there were no changes in the entire process.


    Threads of Great Void Primordial Qi gathered in Zhou Feng¡¯s chest.


    The Great Void Dao! He had barely entered the rudiments. Comprehending a divine ability also meant comprehending a chain of laws.


    m


    The chains of power of the Great Dao began to transform Zhou Feng¡¯s soul.


    Soul power began to transform into divine power.


    Soul power alone was not enough to use divine abilities.


    Only by transforming soul power into divine power could one control the laws of the Great Dao and start using divine abilities.


    It could be said that from the Divine Ability realm onward, the way a cultivator fought became the way to control the laws.


    This was much stronger than simply controlling soul power.


    It was only by relying on Zhou Feng¡¯s various passive buffs, as well as his unreasonable recovery ability, that he was able to contend against Divine Ability cultivators.


    In reality, there was basically no Purple Mansion cultivator that could win against a Divine Ability cultivator.


    After all, after the Divine Ability realm, using one¡¯s divine will to control a sliver of the laws casually was even stronger than using one¡¯s full strength.


    For example, when he had encountered Hua Jun, Zhou Feng could clearly feel that his strength was insufficient.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the Soul Punch could directly attack the soul, his other methods wouldn¡¯t be able to do anything to Hua Jun.


    But at this moment, Zhou Feng was also at the Divine Ability Realm.


    He was confident that he wouldn¡¯t lose to anyone in the same realm.


    ¡°Is this the Divine Ability realm?¡±


    After stepping into the Divine Ability realm, Zhou Feng felt that there were not many changes in his physical body.


    On the contrary, there were great changes in his soul.


    A chain formed by laws were currently surrounding the tiny soul on the Soul Altar. That was the chain of laws formed by the Great Void Dao.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding of the Great Void Dao deepened, this chain would become heavier and heavier, and the pressure on his soul would also become heavier and heavier.


    This would also become a kind of restriction.


    This would cause every cultivator not to be able to cultivate all kinds of divine abilities without restrictions.


    The stronger a soul was, the stronger its endurance would be. This also meant that one would be able to cultivate more divine abilities.


    At this time, the benefits of Visualization Diagrams would be revealed.


    The disciples from large clans who used Visualization Diagrams from a young age were powerful, and they could break through to the Divine Ability realm with ease.


    When their soul power was converted into divine power, their soul would also become firm.


    They could withstand even more chains of laws.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng faintly felt that he seemed to be able to cultivate another divine ability.


    If he had too many, his soul would not be able to withstand it.


    In the Divine Ability realm, the more divine abilities one had, the greater the advantage they would have. If he remembered correctly, the core disciples of the holy lands seemed to be able to start with three divine abilities.


    Also, different divine abilities had different levels of pressure on the soul after cultivation.


    ¡®But no matter what, I¡¯ve broken through to the Divine Ability realm!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that his soul was still transforming.


    This process of transformation didn¡¯t happen in an instant.


    It was a gradual process. He needed some time to get used to it. ¡°Every breakthrough will give me a chance to draw a passive skill. So this time¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately placed his attention on the skill panel.


    This time, after breaking through to the omniscient realm, no matter what, the skill panel would have a reaction!


    As expected, the progress bar was full.


    He had even accumulated two chances to draw!


    ¡°Two times? That means I can draw two passive skills!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes immediately lit up when he saw this.

 Chapter 382 - Passive Cultivation Speed, At Last!

    Chapter 382 Passive Cultivation Speed, At Last!


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Compared to breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, Zhou Feng still preferred the passive skills.


    This was because the passive skills¡¯ bonus was simple and crude, and they took effect immediately. As for the realm increase, it needed to be slowly adjusted.


    It didn¡¯t mean that once you broke through to the Divine Ability realm, you could instantly obtain the strength of the Divine Ability realm.


    This was reflected in many of the Divine Ability cultivators he had met before.


    Zhou Feng had brutally beaten up Divine Ability cultivators in the past. ¡°Drawing¡­¡± ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Consumption Reduction: Your Blood Qi, soul power, or spiritual power consumption will be optimized.


    Consumption reduced by 10%.


    ¡°Consumption Reduction?¡±


    This passive skill was just like its name, simple and plain.


    Although the name was simple and plain, its effect was very strong.


    From the abovementioned description, his consumption would be reduced by 10%.


    This was a godly skill!


    It was just like his trump card, the Soul Punch, a sure-kill skill driven by soul power.


    Although it was very powerful and unexpected, it consumed a lot of energy.


    Previously, in order to force Hua Jun to retreat, he had fallen unconscious for half a month.


    Fortunately, he had the passive Soul Harvesting. Otherwise, just healing his soul injuries would be enough to make him suffer. Now that he had the passive Consumption Reduction, the burden on him was not so great. A protracted battle would also become even more intense. This passive was somewhat similar to the passive Blood Qi Recovery from before.


    The passive Consumption Reduction could reduce the consumption by 10%, while the Blood Qi Recovery could recover 30% of the Blood Qi.


    In this way, didn¡¯t it mean that when he circulated his Blood Qi to fight, the consumption was 140% less than that of an ordinary person? ¡°Hiss! This consumption is almost halved! Too strong!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that he could wantomly consume the Blood Qi in his body.


    In any case, the consumption was so little, and the expansion of the second heart was under normal circumstances.


    It was basically impossible for him to have a situation where his Blood Qi was exhausted.


    In this way, the method of circulating and controlling the Blood Qi became very important.


    Zhou Feng completely relied on his own terrifying Blood Qi to crush the enemy.


    But if it was to circulate and use the Blood Qi, it was very crude.


    Because he had never learned this method.


    The only thing he could use was the scattered methods recorded in the Human Emperor Scriptures and the Invincible Fists he had created.


    But the so-called Invincible Fists sounded very frightening


    However, it lacked a foundation and was completely created by Zhou Feng alone.


    It was completely useless when he met some experts.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng needed to find new offensive methods.


    At the very least, they had to be on the same level as the Starseizer Steps.


    Zhou Feng continued to draw while thinking about how to plan his future cultivation path.


    This time, he could directly draw two passives.


    He didn¡¯t know if the second passive skill was good or not.


    It would be great if he could obtain a passive skill that would speed up his cultivation speed.


    Zhou Feng was looking forward to the moon and stars, hoping to obtain a passive skill that would speed up his cultivation speed.


    After all, his aptitude was one of the worst, so such a passive skill should be the most suitable for him.


    Unfortunately, after drawing so many passive skills, none of them could speed up his cultivation speed.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Cultivation Simulation: You will undergo another simulated cultivation every time you cultivate.


    And you will obtain the corresponding cultivation experience. ¡°F*ck! It really came just like that?¡±


    It had been a long time since Zhou Feng had experienced such a pleasant surprise.


    Originally, he was complaining in his heart.


    However, he did not expect that there would really be a passive skill that would speed up his cultivation speed. This skill directly doubled the efficiency of cultivation.


    Simply put, it was equivalent to having two of you cultivating together.


    No matter how bad Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude was, he should at least be able to catch up to those so-called geniuses!


    ¡°Very good! This way, my ability to adapt to the Divine Ability realm will be doubled!


    ¡°Also! That Starseizer Steps should be able to be cultivated to perfection.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was filled with excitement as he began to replan his cultivation path.


    First of all, adapting to the Divine Ability realm was the most important task.


    He had to familiarize himself with the Divine Ability realm as soon as possible and then cultivate the Great Void Primordial Art to the small success stage. Next was the cultivation of the Starseizer Steps, which had great potential. The difficulty of cultivation was not as great as the Great Void Primordial Art. With the support of the cultivation simulation, he should be able to complete it quickly.


    After that, Zhou Feng felt that he should be able to continue training.


    After breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, he would at least have the ability to protect himself.


    He would not have to be chased around like before.


    ¡°Very good! Let¡¯s start now!¡±


    With these two newly acquired passive skills, Zhou Feng was filled with enthusiasm as he continued to immerse himself in cultivation.


    These two new passive skills were really awesome.


    ¡°Woof?¡±


    Big Yellow, who was guarding the door ode, suddenly felt a warm current scurrying around its body.


    Suddenly, Big Yellow¡¯s strength began to increase rapidly.


    His bloodline was once again stimulated, and at this moment, it had already started to return to the ancestry line.


    Returning to the ancestral roots was a rare situation.


    The Howling Moon Wolf bloodline in Big Yellow¡¯s body was thin, after all.


    Yet, Big Yellow¡¯s bloodline was stimulated thanks to Zhou Feng. Not only was his body size reverted to that of his ancestors, but even his intelligence had improved by leaps and bounds.


    Now, it was even more terrifying. Traces of the ancient Howling Moon Wolf¡¯s fierce might began to spread from Big Yellow¡¯s body.


    This was because of the Spirit Pet Heart.


    Zhou Feng had successfully broken through to the Divine Ability realm, and Big Yellow had directly benefited from it. He inherited 1% of its attributes from him.


    This kind of increase, without any reason, forcefully activated the Howling Moon Wolf bloodline in Big Yellow¡¯s body once again.


    ¡°Woof?¡±


    Big Yellow did not know what had happened either, but he felt as if he had become smarter.


    Moreover, his sense of smell was more sensitive, and he could think more.


    After thinking about it, Big Yellow still could not understand what had happened.


    He simply lay down again and continued to guard the door for Zhou Feng.


    Anyway, this wasn¡¯t a bad thing, so why bother so much?


    When his master came out, he could continue to refine pills happily.


    Thinking of refining pills, Big Yellow put on a guilty look, pricked up his ears, and then looked around.


    Finally, he took a few pills out of the storage ring on his neck.


    If Zhou Feng were here, he would definitely recognize these pills as Spirit Enlightening Pills that were specially refined for spirit pets. If one fed these Spirit Enlightening Pills to a spirit beast for a long time, they could slightly improve the spirit beast¡¯s intelligence.


    It was a pill that was refined in large quantities by some sects and fed to their spirit beasts.


    Apart from that, there were also some special medicinal pills that could improve the spirit beasts¡¯ bodies.


    It seemed that Big Yellow had secretly refined a batch of Spirit Enlightening Pills and then secretly fed them to a dog.

 Chapter 383 - Find a Place to Fight!

    Chapter 383 Find a Place to Fight!


    After obtaining two passive skills, Zhou Feng began to open up the special acupuncture points in his body.


    During this process, the passive Cultivation Simulation also played a crucial role.


    In the past, opening up acupuncture points was a very troublesome matter. This was because it required facing the backlash of the physical body and also needed to be done in one go.


    Once he stopped, he would have to start all over again.


    There was also the matter of connecting to the other acupuncture points in his body.


    Even if Zhou Feng had a terrifying recovery ability, he still needed to grind his way up bit by bit.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s progress was already swift and fierce compared to the others.


    If it was an ordinary person, it would take at least 10 years to master the Starseizer Steps.


    ¡°This¡­ This is practically two people cultivating together!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the acupuncture point that was about to be broken through and could not help but click his tongue in wonder.


    The passive Cultivation Simulation was too amazing


    He mobilized the Blood Qi in his body to attack the acupuncture point, but it was as if he had been attacked twice.


    Previously, when he mobilized the Blood Qi in his body to circulate it all over his body, he could not feel the strengthening of his physical body at all.


    Now that he had the passive Cultivation Simulation, he could feel a slight difference when he circulated the Blood Qi.


    It was clearly just circulating the Blood Qi once, but it had the effect of two times.


    It was also the same feeling when he was performing soul travel to the great void.


    Although Zhou Feng could be considered to have entered the rudiments of the Great Void Primordial Art now, it did not mean that he did not need to do soul travel to the great void anymore.


    On the contrary, he still needed to continue soul traveling to comprehend the Great Void Dao faster.


    However, without the help of incense, his progress was extremely slow.


    Fortunately, there was the existence of the passive Cultivation Simulation. One soul travel was equivalent to two now. Otherwise, Zhou Feng would not be able to see any hope of improvement. The Great Void Dao was truly too profound. This was something that was comprehended by a generation of Human Emperors. Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude had been improved several times, and he could barely be considered a genius now.


    But if he were to compete with a Human Emperor, there was simply no way to compare.


    ¡°The passive Consumption Reduction is not bad either! The consumption of soul power can even be reduced during soul traveling!¡±


    The passive Consumption Reduction was not only effective in battle but it could also be used in daily cultivation.


    ¡°When my soul power is converted into divine sense, the efficiency of my soul travel should be greatly improved! It¡¯s time to find a visualization method to improve my soul!¡±


    Zhou Feng now had a new goal.


    That was to find a suitable visualization method to improve his divine sense.


    He could convert his soul power into divine sense from the Divine Ability realm onward.


    And converting his soul power into divine sense meant that his soul had completed its transformation.


    When his soul completed its transformation, it was equivalent to his soul traveling in the void. His efficiency would be greatly increased.


    If he had the help of a visualization method, his soul would undergo another transformation.


    Then, even without the help of the incense, his progress wouldn¡¯t be too slow.


    Therefore, the visualization method became more important.


    The stronger the soul, the more convenient it would be to comprehend the laws of the Great Dao.


    As a cultivator with aspirations, Zhou Feng naturally wouldn¡¯t be like a salted fish, content with the status quo.


    ¡°My soul power should be converted into divine sense, and the energy in my body should also be converted into divine power!¡±


    Zhou Feng was currently busy converting the Void Primordial Qi into true strength.


    Divine power was only a general term.


    After breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, the main fighting method of a cultivator was to compete with divine abilities.


    The divine power relied on divine sense to stir up the laws, and then the laws would link up with the power of Heaven and earth.


    However, if there was the assistance of a divine ability, then the divine power would be continuously magnified.


    Therefore, most Divine Ability cultivators would convert the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi in their bodies into divine power.


    That was what Zhou Feng was doing now.


    His massive reserves of Blood Qi, along with the Void Primordial Qi and Spiritual Qi, were converted into divine power.


    This was a special power with a hint of law that could be converted from any energy.


    What was worth mentioning was that this conversion of the divine power could also benefit from the passive Cultivation Simulation.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s conversion speed was astonishing


    Ten days later¡­


    Zhou Feng came out of seclusion!


    At that moment, although Zhou Feng¡¯s hair was disheveled, his eyes were exceptionally bright.


    His aura was completely restrained, but he gave off a kind of pressure.


    He clearly did not exude the slightest bit of aura, but it still made people feel afraid.


    Zhou Feng was like an endless void, boundless, making people unable to see the depth. This would make people fearful.


    After comprehending the Great Void Dao, he applied its principles on the Longevity Breathing Technique and improved it.


    He created a technique to control his strength and restrain his aura.


    Zhou Feng called this new technique the Great Void Breathing Technique. It could control his aura as much as possible and reduce the wear and tear on his body.


    It could be said that this Great Void Breathing Technique was his last fig leaf. This was the only original technique he had, and it had many uses.


    ¡°The current me¡­ If I meet that Jade Sword disciple again, I should be able to suppress him


    easily!¡±


    A trace of confidence flashed through Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    After this period of tempering and integration, he had already completely grasped the strength of the Divine Ability realm, and he had even cultivated the Starseizer Steps to perfection.


    The Starseizer Steps were indeed worthy of being the Starseizer Sect¡¯s ultimate skill. Even if it was incomplete, after cultivating to perfection, it was actually able to touch upon a trace of Spatial Law. Before perfection and after perfection, they were simply two different techniques.


    Zhou Feng had tried it before. If he used it at full strength, it could actually achieve a similar effect of shrinking the ground into an inch.


    At the very least, Hua Jun would definitely chase after him many times.


    However, this should be because of the passive buff.


    Even if the others cultivated the incomplete Starseizer Steps to perfection, they wouldn¡¯t be able to achieve Zhou Feng¡¯s level because they didn¡¯t have the passive Wind Steps.


    Wind Steps: Your Speed is increased by 5%.


    Zhou Feng had actually forgotten about this passive skill. After all, the effect was too simple and didn¡¯t leave any impression on him at all.


    But at this moment, it seemed like this passive skill was extremely compatible with the Starseizer Steps.


    The perfect Starseizer Steps and the Wind Steps seemed to have directly broken through some sort of limit.


    It allowed Zhou Feng to touch the Spatial Laws.


    ¡°Then¡­ It¡¯s time to go and get back at him!¡±


    Zhou Feng was naturally not someone to be trifled with. He had broken through to the Divine Ability realm, his mastery over the Starseizer Steps was perfect, and the Blood Qi in his body had transformed into divine power!


    Furthermore, he had obtained two new passive skills. His current state could only be described as having a strong army and strong horses. It would be unreasonable for him not to seek revenge.


    The previous battle with Hua Jun should have been the greatest loss Zhou Feng had ever suffered. Even after using his full strength, he had only slightly damaged Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword.


    Although Hua Jun himself had suffered a backlash, it was not serious at all.


    This was something that Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t accept. ¡°Big Yellow, stay here and take good care of the cave. At the same time, take good care of my little fish.¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t plan to bring Big Yellow with him this time.


    This operation was very dangerous, so bringing the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish with him was impossible. As such, he could only let Big Huang stay in the cave.


    Killing Hua Jun would naturally offend the Jade Sword Holy Land. Zhou Feng would definitely run away when the time came, so it was best to let Big Yellow prepare first.

 Chapter 384 - Visualization Technique

    Chapter 384 Visualization Technique


    After hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s words, Big Yellow nodded very humanely.


    He indicated that he understood! Also, Big Yellow no longer gave off a dull vibe like before.


    This gave Zhou Feng the feeling that Big Yellow seemed to have become smarter.


    ¡°Alright! Let¡¯s do it this way!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t pay too much attention to Big Yellow¡¯s changes. After all, he and Big Yellow were bound together, not to mention having the passive Spirit Pet Heart.


    No matter what, Big Yellow would never betray him.


    Under such circumstances, he couldn¡¯t be bothered to care about what Big Yellow wanted to do.


    On the contrary, Big Yellow becoming so smart should be a good thing for him.


    The smarter Big Yellow was, the more help he would provide to him in the future.


    Soon, Zhou Feng swaggered toward Linxian


    City.


    ¡°Is this true?¡±


    ¡°It should be. This time, the Xia Clan has taken out all their savings!¡±


    ¡°Once the Waterside Pavilion¡¯s auction is completed, I¡¯m afraid it will be customized like the Celestial Lake Conference in the future!¡±


    ¡°The Xia Clan must have the same idea!¡±


    II


    II


    While Zhou Feng had been in seclusion, the Xia Clan¡¯s fame was getting bigger and bigger. Xia Chunqiu¡¯s reputation attracted many cultivators as well.


    A few days before the auction started, a piece of news had been released.


    The Xia Clan would take out an incomplete visualization technique during the auction.


    Many cultivators couldn¡¯t remain calm at that moment.


    As long as one broke through to the Divine Ability realm, they would be able to feel the importance of this technique. This was because it was one of the few techniques that could improve one¡¯s soul for a long time.


    Moreover, this technique could be passed down.


    As long as one obtained it, it meant that one¡¯s descendants could also cultivate this visualization technique.


    This wasn¡¯t like those one-time medicinal pills. Some medicinal pills or herbs could indeed improve one¡¯s soul.


    However, these things could only be used once. They could not be passed down.


    In this world, even if the effects were the same, the value would be different.


    The things that could be passed down were the most precious things.


    This was because inheritance was an extremely important thing for cultivators.


    Zhou Feng did not feel this deeply because the first sect he had ¡®joined¡¯ was the Tr-Gu Sect, which was secretly controlled by the Demons.


    However, those mighty figures who cultivated successfully would all leave their inheritances. Or rather, they would directly leave their bloodlines.


    Even the so-called Heavenly Fiend Lone Star also had a successor.


    In short, the inheritance was a very important matter, so important that the value of all the items that could be passed down would double.


    Therefore, the value of a visualization technique that could be passed down naturally did not need to be said.


    In fact, even the other clans didn¡¯t expect that the Xia Clan would take out a visualization technique.


    Normally, such a good thing should be well guarded.


    Why would the Xia Clan take it out? This was a question worth pondering. There was definitely something wrong with this visualization technique, but the temptation of the visualization technique wasn¡¯t something that ordinary people could resist.


    ¡°Visualization technique? In the middle of the Celestial Lake?¡±


    Zhou Feng, who swaggered into Linxian City, also collected relevant information.


    He did not expect that so many things had happened during the time he was away.


    However, he was really interested in this visualization technique.


    Because if he wanted to cultivate more divine abilities, he naturally needed to use the visualization technique to improve his soul.


    Actually, Zhou Feng could also slightly improve his soul with the passive Soul Harvesting.


    As long as he continued to kill, he could increase his soul power bit by bit.


    A quantitative change would cause qualitative change, and his soul would transform sooner or later.


    But the problem was that it was too slow, and the commotion it caused was too great.


    Wantonly killing cultivators and increasing his soul power was simply the Demonic Path.


    Moreover, the efficiency was low. It was easy to play with fire and bring great trouble to oneself.


    Zhou Feng still had a bottom line in his heart. He was not a madman who would randomly kill people without a purpose. On the contrary, if he had the visualization method, he would use the passive Cultivation Simulation he had just obtained.


    This way, it would be safer and faster to raise his soul power.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng wanted to obtain the visualization technique if he had the chance.


    ¡®Right now, it¡¯s more important to get back at him!


    Although he was very interested in the so-called visualization technique, Zhou Feng¡¯s mind was still very clear.


    He had come here to get back at Hua Jun. The previous battle with Hua Jun had sent him unconscious for more than half a month.


    If he did not take revenge, he would not feel good.


    Hence, Zhou Feng continued to inquire about Hua Jun..


    However, as Hua Jun was a Jade Sword disciple, he lived in seclusion, and a few people knew about him.


    Zhou Feng walked around the city a few times but still did not find any news about Hua Jun..


    He could always use his divine sense to probe. However, he didn¡¯t dare to do so because it would be easy to be exposed.


    It would be troublesome if he were surrounded. ¡®Troublesome! I¡¯d better stay here for a few days!¡¯


    Since Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t found any clues, he stayed inLinxian City.


    Anyway, he had become another person through the passive Bloodline Simulation.


    No one would find out his real identity.


    He might as well stay inLinxian City for a few days to see what the situation was like.


    A few days passed¡­ Zhou Feng was still like an ordinary vagabond cultivator. He strolled around the city before starting a small business.


    He even became familiar with a few vagabond cultivators.


    ¡°Today seems to be the day of the Xia Clan¡¯s auction!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Many people have gone to watch the show. This business is getting more and more difficult.¡±


    ¡°I heard that even the disciples of the holy land in the City Lord Manor have gone to watch the show!¡±


    ¡°What? Even the disciples of the holy land went to watch the show?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I heard that there are still some materials needed to repair Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword, so he will attend the Xia Clan¡¯s auction!¡±


    Zhou Feng, who was squatting in the corner, suddenly had a flash of light in his eyes.


    Finally, there was news about Hua Jun..


    ¡®So he has leftLinxian City.¡¯


    Thinking about it this way, it was very logical.


    Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword had a tiny crack on it.


    Therefore, Hua Jun had to repair his lifebound flying sword, and the materials needed to repair the flying sword were definitely very precious.


    It was normal to try his luck at the auction.


    ¡®Let¡¯s go. No one is going to buy anything today.¡¯


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng packed up his things, left a message, and departed.


    Since he already knew Hua Jun¡¯s location, he naturally wouldn¡¯t waste his time here.


    Moreover, this was a great opportunity.


    If Hua Jun were inLinxian City, Zhou Feng would still have a huge risk if he made a move.


    But if he were outside, then he wouldn¡¯t have so many scruples.


    ¡®After Hua Jun buys all the things, I¡¯ll be the oriole behind¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng even thought that after Hua Jun participated in the auction, he could snatch everything that Hua Jun got.


    And that flying sword, he had been coveting it for a long time.


    Riding a flying sword was his dream.


    If it was possible, Zhou Feng wanted to learn how to ride a sword.

 Chapter 385 - 600,000 Spirit Stones for a Fish Tank

    Chapter 385 600,000 Spirit Stones for a Fish Tank


    It didn¡¯t take long for Zhou Feng to find the Xia Clan¡¯s Waterside Pavilion in the center of the lake.


    There were many boats on the shore, transporting cultivators from all directions.


    However, because Zhou Feng arrived a little late, there were few boats on the shore.


    He waited for a long time before finally arriving at the Waterside Pavilion.


    was


    It had to be said that the Xia Clan was really willing to part with it.


    It was unknown how the Waterside Pavilion was fixed in the center of the lake.


    There was no connection at all in the surroundings.


    One had to know that this was the central area of the Celestial Lake.


    Many fierce spirit fish gathered here in the surroundings. In the deeper part of the lake, there were even big fish in the Dragon Transformation realm. Since the Xia Clan had built such a pavilion in the center of the lake, the price they had to pay was not small. Getting rid of these spirit fish in the way was not an easy task.


    While Zhou Feng was on the boat on his way to the pavilion, several big fish attacked him.


    A few fish were as big as trucks, and they directly collided with the boat that Zhou Feng was on.


    That powerful physical body was simply comparable to Zhou Feng¡¯s before his breakthrough.


    However, after breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, Zhou Feng felt that his physical body¡¯s defense had also reached a ridiculous level.


    He was even wondering if Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword could hurt him at this moment.


    ¡°It¡¯s really big!¡± Zhou Feng looked around and found that the area of the pavilion was not small at all.


    Besides the auction venue in the center, there were many other buildings.


    There were even places that specialized in selling cultivation techniques and spiritual artifacts.


    It just so happened that his Celestial Spiritmirror Fish still did not have a suitable fish tank.


    He might as well go and take a look first. If it were suitable, he would get one.


    In any case, the auction was currently underway, so he could not force his way into the auction.


    After the auction was over, Hua Jun would come out from inside. It would not be too late to make a move then.


    Zhou Feng did not have so many scruples here.


    As long as Hua Jun¡¯s aura was revealed, he would be able to lock onto Hua Jun¡¯s position instantly.


    ¡°Welcome! May I know what this customer wants?¡±


    Zhou Feng had just approached when the person from the artifact building began to speak to him enthusiastically.


    The main business here was buying and selling spiritual artifacts. ¡°I want a spiritual artifact that can raise spirit fish!¡±


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to waste his breath. He went straight to the point and stated his needs.


    ¡°Alright! This way, please!¡±


    Soon, the person from the famed artifact building pulled him to a place. This place was filled with all kinds of strange fish tanks, and they all looked very small. ¡°These are all spiritual artifacts especially refined by our famed artifact building¡¯s Artifact Refiner!¡±


    ¡°These contain a space that can accommodate the spirit fish, and at the same time¡­¡±


    After some explanation, Zhou Feng finally understood how to use these fish tanks that looked like strings.


    These string-like fish tanks were basically equivalent to a high-quality version of the spirit pet bag, with a space inside.


    Moreover, they could freely adjust the water quality, layout, and Spiritual Qi density inside the space.


    In any case, it could create an environment suitable for spirit fish to live in.


    And it could automatically collect the spirit fish¡¯s gifts.


    That¡¯s right! Generally speaking, the spirit fish that could be fed in these spirit fish tanks were almost all very precious and could produce some useful resources. Naturally, these spiritual fish tanks were not cheap.


    Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t need to collect the Celestial Qi the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish produced as long as it lived in this spiritual fish tank.


    Instead, it would be automatically harvested by this spiritual artifact and stored in another space.


    Also, Spirit Stones could be used to enhance the fish tank¡¯s environment.


    One could even set up some formations and change the layout.


    Even more exaggeratedly, it could simulate an ecological environment in this fish tank.


    Of course, the most important thing was that the fish tank was hard and sealed.


    It would not leak the aura of the spirit fish, and it would be very difficult for the outside world to affect the spirit fish in the fish tank.


    ¡°How many Spirit Stones?¡± Zhou Feng directly asked the price.


    If he had this thing, his Celestial Spiritmirror Fish would be able to live a little more comfortably.


    It would not be like now, where it was completely relying on the Crystal Warm Jade to live.


    As soon as Zhou Feng¡¯s Celestial Spiritmirror Fish left the pure Spiritual Qi of the Crystal Warm Jade, the entire fish would become dispirited.


    Therefore, he urgently needed such a fish tank.


    ¡°Then, I wonder if this customer needs my Xia Clan¡¯s Moon Shadow Spiritual Spring? With this Moon Shadow Spiritual Spring, your beloved spirit fish will grow even stronger!¡± The merchant was not anxious at all as Zhou Feng posed his question. Instead, he tried to make the sale bigger.


    This Moon Shadow Spirit Spring was a spirit spring controlled by the Xia Clan, and it contained a faint moonlight power.


    It was very good for spirit fish.


    ¡°No need!¡± Zhou Feng frowned and declined.


    He felt that this was definitely a big pit. ¡°Alright! Originally, this Swimming Dragon Fish Tank cost 700,000 Spirit Stones. But since this is our new shop, it¡¯s on sale for only 600,000 Spirit Stones!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately raised his eyebrows upon hearing this price. It was quite expensive, after all.


    It could be said that it was ridiculously expensive, comparable to some spiritual weapons.


    It must be known that ordinary top-grade spiritual artifacts that contained spiritual essence would only cost this price.


    And the only function of this fish tank was to raise fish, yet they dared to sell it at such a high price.


    Zhou Feng was also very familiar with some market prices.


    Generally speaking, spiritual artifacts were valued according to their uses and rarity. Basically, it would not exceed 1,000,000 Spirit Stones.


    Even more powerful dao artifacts were basically at 5,000,000 Spirit Stones or more.


    According to this price, the price of this Swimming Dragon Fish Tank was not outrageous.


    After all, it was priced below 1,000,000 Spirit Stones.


    But the problem was that this was not a spiritual artifact that could increase a person¡¯s battle prowess.


    A good spiritual artifact could directly increase a person¡¯s fighting strength. And this fish tank, besides being able to raise fish, was completely useless. What right did this person have to dare to sell it for 600,000 Spirit Stones?


    ¡°Good!¡±


    Zhou Feng thought in his heart for a few seconds and did not haggle over the price. He directly bought it. In this instant, he used up all of his wealth.


    Previously, when he had been fishing by the lake, he had killed lots of cultivators and looted their belongings.


    Together with Zhou Feng¡¯s remaining savings, they were barely able to gather these 600,000 Spirit Stones.


    The Spirit Stone crisis had arrived once again.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care because he would have Spirit Stones again soon.


    As a disciple of the holy land, Hua Jun¡¯s wealth should be quite high. As long as he killed Hua Jun, he would instantly have Spirit Stones. ¡°Good!¡±


    The person opposite him was also slightly surprised by Zhou Feng¡¯s straightforwardness.


    Still, the two of them quickly completed the transaction.


    Zhou Feng spent 600,000 Spirit Stones to buy the Swimming Dragon Fish Tank, the new home of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    Due to the mystical power of the Celestial Qi, he did not feel that this transaction was a loss.


    After all, the Celestial Qi was a good thing that could assist in comprehending divine abilities. A mere bag of Spirit Stones was nothing compared to comprehending divine abilities.


    It was not even worth mentioning.


    It could be said that the reason Zhou Feng was able to break through to the Divine Ability realm in such a short period, other than the Whale King Musk¡¯s incense, the Celestial Qi also played an extremely important role.


    If it were not for the Celestial Qi, Zhou Feng would not have been able to comprehend the Great Void Dao so quickly.

 Chapter 386 - Resentful Ghost Elder

    Chapter 386 Resentful Ghost Elder


    After buying the Swimming Dragon Fish Tank, Zhou Feng began to wander around the area.


    The auction had already started, so he couldn¡¯t enter. As such, it was better to familiarize himself with the terrain here.


    Since the Xia Clan dared to hold an auction in such a place, they must first ensure everyone¡¯s safety.


    At least it was absolutely safe here.


    Otherwise, there wouldn¡¯t be any cultivators here to participate in the auction.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to make a move here.


    Instead, he waited for Hua Jun to leave the pavilion and be on his way back to Linxian City.


    If he guessed correctly, Hua Jun would definitely use the flying sword to leave.


    When Hua Jun used the flying sword to fly back to Linxian City, Zhou Feng¡¯s opportunity would arrive.


    It was inconvenient to make a move at the lake¡¯s heart and Waterside Pavilion, but after leaving, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have so many scruples. However, he also wanted to investigate how many experts were there for safety reasons.


    After all, Hua Jun was a disciple of the holy land. Perhaps the Xia Clan would step in to stop him.


    The Xia Clan should also be implicated if a core disciple died here.


    ¡®Appraising Eye! Zhou Feng immediately used Appraising Eye to observe his surroundings.


    He had not used this passive skill for a long time.


    This was because his curiosity didn¡¯t take the better of him, and he did not want to know so many things.


    He would only use it when he was sorting out the spoils of war.


    Furthermore, the passive Appraising Eye was not as powerful as he had imagined.


    As his realm increased, the things he came into contact with became more precious.


    The passive Appraising Eye was usually only able to give general information.


    Sometimes, it was only half a sentence, so Zhou Feng gradually didn¡¯t use it.


    (Circular Light Formation: A powerful defensive formation.]


    (Spirit-Gathering Formation: Able to gather the surrounding Spiritual Qi.]


    Zhou Feng saw many formations arranged in the surroundings.


    However, these formations seemed to be small ones and couldn¡¯t be compared to the grand formation of Celestial Lake City.


    y


    Even so, it also proved the strength of the Xia Clan from another perspective.


    Formation Masters were extremely difficult to nurture. Compared to Pill Masters, it was even more difficult to become a Formation Master.


    Pill Masters might be able to accumulate bit by bit through inheritance and resources.


    However, a Formation Master would be able to choke most people in terms of talent.


    Only those with outstanding talent would be able to become a Formation Master.


    Moreover, if one wanted to rely on a Formation Master skills to earn money, one would still need a long period of cultivation and tempering.


    Compared to a Pill Master who had just joined a sect, one would be able to accumulate resources slowly.


    A Formation Master was much more miserable. A novice Formation Master wouldn¡¯t even have the chance to use a formation. This was because Formation Masters who had just joined a sect were not only weak when it came to setting up formations, but they also needed a lot of resources. Small factions couldn¡¯t afford such expenditure, but large factions had better choices.


    Hence, the position of novice Formation Masters was rather awkward. However, once they became Class 3 Formation Masters, the value of Formation Masters would rise. For the Xia Clan to be able to set up so many formations here, it was obvious that their clan had nurtured these Formation Masters.


    It was needless to say how powerful a clan that could nurture Formation Masters was.


    ¡®These formations aren¡¯t of great threat to me. Looks like the Xia Clan should have stationed quite a number of experts here.¡¯


    Zhou Feng quickly came to the conclusion that the formations the Xia Clan had set up here couldn¡¯t stop him at all.


    In other words, it was very likely that the Xia Clan had stationed Dragon Transformation experts here. Otherwise, they wouldn¡¯t be able to suppress so many people at all.


    What he needed to worry about was whether he would be able to block the attack of a Dragon Transformation expert. ¡®Eh? Wait!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching


    This individual didn¡¯t intend to conceal their aura, so it wasn¡¯t just Zhou Feng that noticed it; even the others had noticed that something was wrong.


    ¡°Who are you!? Please give our Xia Clan some face!¡± a Xia expert suddenly shouted.


    Obviously, this person came with ill intentions. The Xia Clan didn¡¯t want to start a fight with this kind of expert.


    Thus, they brought out the name of the Xia Clan.


    ¡°Tsk, tsk, the Xia Clan? What audacity! They don¡¯t even have a Dragon Transformation expert here, yet they dare to hold an auction here!¡±


    It was unknown when it started, but balls of black fog surrounded the entire pavilion.


    ¡®Ghost Qi? Demonic cultivator?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the balls of black fog.


    This should be Ghost Qi, and he could hear faint screams from within the black fog.


    After looking at it for a long time, Zhou Feng felt like he was going to be swallowed whole.


    If his guess was correct, this should be a demonic cultivator!


    To be honest, this was the first time he saw a demonic cultivator in the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    Under normal circumstances, due to the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s terrifying suppression, there were no demonic sects nearby.


    But that didn¡¯t mean that there were no demonic cultivators.


    Compared to the orthodox cultivation methods, the demonic cultivation methods of the Demonic Path advanced extremely quickly, and their power wasn¡¯t weak.


    Many people would try to cultivate, especially those geniuses with good talent but no background.


    After all, almost all the cultivation resources were monopolized by the various sects and clans.


    If one wanted to cultivate to the Divine Ability realm, they would have to rely on the support of these forces.


    Under such a desperate monopoly of resources, there would definitely be people who would take the risk.


    Demonic cultivation techniques were so easy to cultivate!


    Wasn¡¯t it just bloodthirsty soul-snatching? Wasn¡¯t it just killing people?


    They would just kill all those privileged disciples who monopolized the resources.


    Due to the above reasons, demonic cultivators couldn¡¯t be eradicated.


    Under the Jade Sword Holy Land, some demonic cultivator geniuses would even be forced out from time to time.


    These demonic cultivator geniuses were completely unreasonable when they broke through. They only needed less than a few years.


    Those who became stronger and stronger during other cultivators¡¯ pursuits would directly break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    It was simply even more exaggerated than Zhou Feng¡¯s breakthrough speed.


    The demonic cultivators who couldn¡¯t break through to the Dragon Transformation realm were basically all dead.


    If one wanted to live and escape the pursuit of the Jade Sword Holy Land, the Dragon Transformation realm was the lowest standard.


    Regarding this problem, the Jade Sword Holy Land actually had a headache.


    A demonic Dragon Transformation cultivator had countless life-preserving methods at their hands and countless means.


    Their life-saving means were even more first-class. Five cultivators of the same realm might not even be enough to take down a demonic cultivator.


    If one didn¡¯t keep an eye on these demonic cultivators, they would massacre an entire city.


    They were like dogskin plasters. No matter how hard one tried, they couldn¡¯t get rid of them.


    Zhou Feng had read the information on the bounty list from the City Lord Manor.


    There was a mission on it. The mission was to provide the specific location of the demonic cultivators.


    ¡°Come out!¡±


    The demonic Dragon Transformation cultivator hidden in the dense Ghost Qi instantly released a large number of resentful ghosts.


    These resentful ghosts had Divine Ability cultivation, were extremely fast, and had no physical bodies.


    From the looks of it, this demonic Dragon Transformation cultivator intended to wipe out everyone here. ¡°It¡¯s over! It¡¯s over! It¡¯s actually him!¡±


    ¡°The Resentful Ghost Elder? Such a style definitely belongs to the Resentful Ghost Elder!¡±


    ¡°The Xia Clan actually didn¡¯t send a Dragon Transformation expert to guard this place? What are they thinking? They must be crazy!¡±


    Looking at the resentful ghosts that filled the sky, many people broke out in cold sweat, and their faces turned pale.


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t frightened. Instead, he restrained his aura and hid in a corner.

 Chapter 387 - Wild Past

    Chapter 387 Wild Past


    ¡°The Resentful Ghost Elder?¡¯ Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know any Resentful Ghost Elder, but it seemed that many people had heard of this person.


    Speaking of this Resentful Ghost Elder, he was actually a legend.


    Although he was called an ¡®elder¡¯, in reality, this person wasn¡¯t that old.


    He should be in his early 20s, but he was white-haired, like an old man in his 80s or 90s.


    In addition, wherever he went, a large number of resentful ghosts would be released, so he was called the Resentful Ghost Elder.


    At first, this person¡¯s aptitude for cultivation was not very good, but he was very obsessed with cultivation.


    However, his background was lackluster, and he would often be bullied.


    As such, he followed on the Demonic Path.


    In any case, no one knew how this Resentful Ghost Elder rose to prominence.


    They only knew that when the Resentful Ghost Elder appeared as a demonic cultivator, he was already in the Divine Ability realm.


    After that, he was inevitably hunted down by the Jade Sword Holy Land. However, this Resentful Ghost Elder was like an MC. After constantly trying to hunt him down and failing to kill him had the exact opposite intended effect-they delivered goods to the Resentful Ghost Elder.


    It was unknown how many disciples of the holy land had been swallowed by the resentful ghosts and were turned into resentful ghosts themselves.


    Later on, a Dragon Transformation Jade Sword Elder couldn¡¯t help but attack.


    But he only heavily injured the Resentful Ghost Elder.


    In the end, he relied on the sacrifices of countless resentful ghosts to avoid this pursuit. After that, the Resentful Ghost Elder remained silent for more than a year. The moment he reappeared, he massacred a small city. That was a small city at the border of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Although it was a small city, its strength wasn¡¯t bad, and a formation protected it.


    However, this Resentful Ghost Elder used some unknown method to turn that small city into a ghost domain directly.


    After that, he used the Ghost-Nurturing Art to raise a Ghost Lord (Dragon Transformation realm) and broke through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land was even more helpless against this Resentful Ghost Elder this time.


    Every time the Resentful Ghost Elder brought along thick ghost fog, countless resentful ghosts would circle around him.


    There was also a Ghost Lord in the middle, making it extremely difficult to deal with.


    However, after breaking through to the Dragon Transformation realm, this Resentful Ghost Elder seemed to know that the Jade Sword Holy Land had already reached the limit of its endurance.


    If he continued to be so unbridled, he would sooner or later be cut down by a sword.


    After all, if the Jade Sword Holy Land was determined to kill the Resentful Ghost Elder, it could still be done.


    It was just a matter of whether they were willing to pay the price!


    Therefore, the Resentful Ghost Elder gradually kept a low profile. When the Jade Sword Holy Land saw this, they did not intend to go all out.


    Compared to the Resentful Ghost Elder, the other two holy lands were more worthy of the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s attention.


    As for the small city the Resentful Ghost Elder had massacred, no one mentioned it again.


    The Resentful Ghost Elder had not appeared for a long time, so they did not expect him to appear here this time suddenly.


    ¡°Where are the people of the Xia Clan? Why haven¡¯t they met the enemy yet!¡±


    ¡°I said long ago that the Xia Clan¡¯s strength simply can¡¯t support this auction! They actually still took out the visualization technique!¡± ¡°It¡¯s definitely that visualization technique that lured this old devil here.¡±


    Looking at the resentful ghosts that filled the sky, many people revealed traces of despair.


    If there weren¡¯t mighty Dragon Transformation figures overseeing this place¡­ it would be simply impossible to stop the Resentful Ghost Elder. He could swallow everyone here just by relying on the resentful ghosts that filled the


    sky.


    ¡°Hmph! Do you really think that my Xia Clan can be bullied!?¡±


    After recognizing the Resentful Ghost Elder, the people of the Xia Clan also knew that their clan¡¯s prestige wouldn¡¯t be of any use. This Resentful Ghost Elder had even offended the Jade Sword Holy Land, so how could he be afraid of a mere Xia Clan.


    However, the Xia Clan dared to hold an auction here and even took out a treasure like the visualization technique.


    Naturally, they were prepared.


    Then, the leisurely sound of a flute began to ring out.


    At some point in time, a woman stood on the rooftop. Her long dress fluttered in the wind as she held the jade flute in both hands and slowly played it.


    ¡°Xia Chunqiu? Fairy Xia!¡±


    ¡°Fairy Xia seems to only be at the Divine Ability realm. This can¡¯t be enough to deal with this old ghost, right?¡±


    The woman on the rooftop was immediately recognized.


    This was because many people were there for


    her.


    This was the next clan leader of the Xia Clan, Xia Chunqiu, who was also known as Fairy Xia.


    Zhou Feng raised his head to take a look.


    Her eyes seemed to carry a starry sky in the dim surroundings, making them seem so bright. Her eyes seemed to emit faint starlight as they moved. ¡°Moo!¡±


    Following that, a whale-like cry sounded.


    In an instant, the eerie Ghost Qi that blotted out the sky was torn apart.


    As the sunlight shone down, everyone discovered a huge black shadow rising from the center of the lake.


    It was hot! Boiling hot!


    For some reason, Zhou Feng felt a wave of heat.


    The temperature around him seemed to be rising rapidly?


    ¡°This Blood Qi¡­


    After that, Zhou Feng felt what was called Blood Qi like the sea!


    The amount of this Blood Qi was countless times more than his.


    Under everyone¡¯s astonished eyes, a huge strange fish broke through the surface of the lake.


    ¡°This¡­ This Is¡­¡±


    ¡°What a terrifying aura! This is definitely reaching the Spirit Lord rank!¡±


    ¡°What kind of fish is this!?¡±


    1111


    This huge strange fish looked extremely horrifying, and its body was covered with all kinds of bumps.


    Its eyes were covered with some strange parasites.


    Moreover, it seemed that something was absorbing the Blood Qi of this strange fish.


    But even so, the ghost domain of the Resentful Ghost Elder was instantly suppressed.


    The terrifying Blood Qi that was constantly being emitted directly evaporated a small part of the ghost domain.


    It was too terrifying! This strange fish was simply like a prehistoric species left over from ancient times.


    ¡°Moo!¡±


    That huge sound once again came from the mouth of this strange fish.


    Some of the buildings in the pavilion were instantly shaken left and right.


    ¡°No wonder! So the Xia Clan has such a trump card. I just don¡¯t know how the Xia Clan actually communicated with this strange fish!¡±


    Zhou Feng slowly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.


    Just now, he even planned to use the Starseizer Steps to break out of the encirclement.


    ¡°Hmph! The Xia Clan Leader is rushing over now! I don¡¯t know if you really want to fight with my Xia Clan to the death!¡±


    At this time, the Xia Clan¡¯s Divine Ability expert spoke again.


    The Xia Clan Leader was also a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    With two Dragon Transformation experts, it was not difficult for them to protect this place.


    Moreover, if the Resentful Ghost Elder continued to stay here, he might be surrounded.


    Even the Jade Sword experts might arrive at that time.


    After all, the Jade Sword Holy Land had always wanted the Resentful Ghost Elder¡¯s head.


    If there were a chance to pay a small price to capture the Resentful Ghost Elder, the Jade Sword Holy Land would definitely not let him off.


    The Resentful Ghost Elder was able to get away with it because the price to kill him was too


    great.


    As long as the price was acceptable, the Resentful Ghost Elder would be in danger.


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    The Resentful Ghost Elder only left one word.


    Then, the surroundings became clear, and the sinister Ghost Qi slowly dissipated.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Am I¡­ being targeted!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt a cold sweat on his back.


    After the Resentful Ghost Elder retreated, Zhou Feng suddenly felt a hint of danger.


    This was a sudden impulse, a completely instinctive reaction from his body. This sudden impulse made him frown slightly.


    He looked around and found that the others were still in shock, but there was nothing abnormal like him.


    Combined with the word that the Resentful Ghost Elder had left behind before his departure, it was clear that he had not given


    up.

 Chapter 388 - The Importance of Inheritance

    Chapter 388 The Importance of Inheritance


    Zhou Feng did not understand what was going on. Why was he suddenly targeted?


    He was hidden in a corner, so few people could notice him, yet this Resentful Ghost Elder had targeted him? This did not seem to make sense.


    Or was it because of some other reason?


    Just as Zhou Feng was puzzled, the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth was triggered.


    The passive function of the Purification of Heaven and Earth would clear up a negative state of the body, which included one¡¯s mark.


    Since it was triggered just now, it indicated that someone had secretly left a mark on his body.


    neu


    Zhou Feng immediately understood that he wasn¡¯t the only one who was targeted.


    Perhaps everyone present was targeted by this Resentful Ghost Elder.


    Moreover, he had left a mark without anyone noticing it.


    It should have been the sinister Ghost Qi that filled the sky.


    At that time, everyone¡¯s attention had been attracted by the strange fish and the Resentful Ghost Elder. They hadn¡¯t noticed the Resentful Ghost Elder¡¯s covert actions at all.


    ¡®Fortunately, I have the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth.¡¯


    From the looks of it, no matter who obtained the visualization technique, they would still be robbed by the Resentful Ghost Elder in the end.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t be bothered to care about the others after the mark on his body was removed.


    From the beginning to the end, his target was only Hua Jun.


    Following the Resentful Ghost Elder¡¯s retreat, the huge strange fish also slowly sank into the lake.


    The auction finally proceeded smoothly.


    Under the deterrence of the strange fish, no one had the notion of causing trouble again.


    However, many people began to wonder in their hearts how the Xia Clan had tamed the strange fish.


    That kind of barbaric aura belonged to prehistoric species.


    The so-called prehistoric species were the demonic beasts and aquatic creatures that had been around since the barbaric and ignorant


    era.


    One had to know that due to the changes of the eras, the current environment could not be compared to the environment of the ancient era.


    There were numerous terrifying gargantuan demonic beasts during that savage era.


    And to be able to be passed down from the ancient era, one¡¯s strength would be even more terrifying. After all, the weaker lifeforms were unable to survive, becoming a thing of the past.


    As mentioned in earlier chapters, there would not be a situation where each generation would be weaker than the previous one.


    The research on inheritance in this world was close to the state of madness.


    An ancestor could perfectly imprint their strength into the bloodline.


    The descendants only needed to excavate the strength contained in the bloodline continuously. If there were descendants with poor aptitude, they would not be able to excavate the strength contained in the bloodline fully. This didn¡¯t matter, however, as the power would still be hidden within the bloodline.


    They could wait until a talented descendant appeared.


    As for never being able to get rid of the old ancestor¡¯s shadow?


    This wasn¡¯t a problem at all. As long as the time was extended to 1,000 years as the milestone, there would always be a peerless genius amongst the many descendants. This genius would break through the old ancestor¡¯s bloodline restrictions and become the new old ancestor of this bloodline.


    Wd


    Then, they would continue to pass on the inheritance. As long as this inheritance was not destroyed, this clan would eventually nurture an invincible emperor.


    In fact, the goal of all the clans and sects was the same. That was why inheritance was so important. In other words, if that strange fish was a prehistoric species, then the power contained in its bloodline was definitely not limited to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    How had the Xia Clan managed to control this strange fish?


    Although the Xia Clan¡¯s reputation in this area was still passable, it was still far from being comparable to a truly large clan.


    One could imagine that many factions had to re-evaluate the Xia Clan¡¯s current strength.


    ¡°The auction has ended!¡±


    ¡°Has it finally ended? Does anyone know who took away the visualization technique?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but this visualization technique is indeed incomplete, and the difficulty of visualization is great!¡±


    ¡°How many Spirit Stones? I just want to know how many Spirit Stones this visualization technique was sold for!¡±


    III


    After the disturbance of the Resentful Ghost Elder, the auction seemed to speed up.


    Soon, the auction ended, but the people were most concerned about who gained the visualization technique.


    The final auction was very secretive, so few people knew who gained the final item.


    However, what they knew was that this visualization technique would not be sold for less than 50,000,000 Spirit Stones.


    Even though this visualization technique had many restrictions and was still incomplete, many people were still enthusiastic about it.


    ¡®It¡¯s here!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes opened because he felt Hua Jun¡¯s aura.


    Only Hua Jun had that kind of sharp aura.


    Sure enough, after Hua Jun participated in the auction, he flew on his sword and prepared to return to Linxian City.


    Zhou Feng also flew in the air. After breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, flying in the air became even easier due to divine power.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng had cultivated the Starseizer Steps. His body appeared in the distance with a step.


    The completion of the Starseizer Steps granted Zhou Feng extreme speed.


    ¡®My luck this time isn¡¯t bad. Using the sect¡¯s might was not in vain!¡¯


    At this moment, Hua Jun was in a good mood as he rode his flying sword.


    The depression from the damage to his flying sword had disappeared without a trace.


    This was because the Shadowless Stone, a rare ore, had appeared in the auction.


    It was impossible to discover this type of ore with the naked eye. Only by using a special method could one observe it, so it was very difficult to discern it.


    This Shadowless Stone was extremely suitable for repairing and upgrading spiritual artifacts. Not only would Hua Jun be able to repair the crack on his flying sword with this shadowless stone, but he might even further improve his flying sword.


    As such, Hua Jun had used the name of the Jade Sword Holy Land to intimidate the other competitors before finally taking down this Shadowless Stone.


    Although doing so had caused him to offend many people, even the organizer, the Xia Clan, Hua Jun did not care.


    Xia Clan? So what if they were powerful? They were still living in the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    While Hua Jun was humming a tune, a familiar aura quietly emerged.


    ¡®Wait! This aura¡­¡¯


    Hua Jun¡¯s face instantly darkened. He would never forget this aura as it belonged to the person that had damaged his flying sword.


    If it were not for this person, he would not have wasted so many Spirit Stones.


    Moreover, he had suffered so much criticism.


    He was a core Jade Sword disciple, yet he could not even stop a vagabond cultivator.


    It was simply a disgrace to the sect.


    ¡°You actually still dare to appear in front of me? You¡¯re simply courting death!¡±


    A trace of killing intent flashed past Hua Jun¡¯s eyes.


    This time, he would definitely not let Zhou Feng escape.


    However, just as Hua Jun was using his divine sense to locate Zhou Feng¡­


    Zhou Feng suddenly appeared in front of Hua Jun as if he had teleported.


    Zhou Feng had already resumed his original appearance. Since it was revenge, he naturally had to reveal his original appearance.


    He did not make any unnecessary movements. He crossed his hands in front of his chest and let out a gentle breath.

 Chapter 389 - Crushing Defeat

    Chapter 389 Crushing Defeat


    Zhou Feng gently exhaled. Originally, Hua Jun¡¯s face was still filled with disdain. If one were to count seriously, this person in front of him was merely a defeated opponent of his.


    His flying sword would have long chopped down Zhou Feng if it weren¡¯t for that strange soul attack.


    Although Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Divine Ability realm, Hua Jun did not think that Zhou Feng could have cultivated a divine ability to the initial stage in such a short period.


    The cultivation of a divine ability was not that simple.


    However, Hua Jun¡¯s expression quickly changed.


    A sense of danger poured down from the top of his head. If he did not dodge, he would die!


    At this critical moment, Hua Jun¡¯s entire body erupted with Sword Qi which could not be stopped.


    The flying sword under his feet pointed straight at Zhou Feng¡¯s chest with a swoosh.


    The Great Void Primordial Art was a divine ability Human Emperor Great Void created after comprehending the Great Void Dao.


    In the beginning, he was able to attract the Great Void Primordial Qi and transform it into divine power to produce void miasma.


    If the Great Void Primordial Art were cultivated to the depths, the void miasma would be almost inextinguishable, and any divine weapon would be blown to pieces upon contact. Hua Jun was facing an endless stream of void miasma.


    As a sword cultivator, Hua Jun also did not have any defensive means. He could only use offense instead of defense.


    He wanted his Sword Qi to tear apart the stream of void miasma in front of him.


    ¡°Impossible!¡± However, the stream in front of him defied logic. It submerged all of Hua Jun¡¯s Sword Qi and even Hua Jun.


    Hua Jun was shocked.


    ¡®How could this be? This is impossible!¡¯


    Previously, when he had encountered Zhou Feng, the latter had only been a Purple Mansion weakling.


    Now, Zhou Feng had not only broken through to the Divine Ability realm, but he had even cultivated a mighty divine ability. This sort of power wasn¡¯t inferior at all to his Sword Control


    ¡®Didn¡¯t they say that this person did not have much of a background and was only a vagabond cultivator? How was he able to cultivate this kind of divine ability!?¡¯


    Under normal circumstances, Hua Jun would not have been able to resist this void miasma.


    Fortunately for him, he was a core Jade Sword disciple.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land would equip each core disciple with an amulet. Therefore, a thick and destructive stream of Sword Qi shot up from Hua Jun¡¯s body at this moment of life and death.


    In an instant, half of the void miasma was cut off.


    ¡®As expected! These holy land disciples will definitely have life-saving items!¡¯


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s heart ached for his void miasma, he was not surprised.


    The disciples of these large factions definitely had life-saving methods.


    Still, his strength was more than enough for him to crush Hua Jun.


    This was because the flying sword could not cause any harm to him. The flying sword that Hua Jun had aimed at his chest was now grabbed by one of his hands.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand was continuously injured by the overbearing Sword Qi of this flying sword, he recovered quickly.


    ¡°You¡­ actually grabbed my flying sword with your bare hands!?¡±


    Hua Jun¡¯s state of mind was a little unstable.


    One had to know that flying swords were invincible.


    Even the so-called body-refining cultivators could not rely on their physical bodies to grab a flying sword. This was simply a joke.


    The sharp flying sword would directly cut off everyone¡¯s hands.


    But Zhou Feng had done it at this moment.


    Hua Jun couldn¡¯t understand what was going on, no matter how much he thought about it.


    Under such a huge shock, Hua Jun¡¯s reaction wasn¡¯t slow either.


    Although he didn¡¯t know why Zhou Feng had suddenly become so powerful, using a divine ability to injure himself the moment he appeared heavily-even triggering the Sword Qi his Master had stored in the amulet¡ªhe could not be in a daze.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s killing intent was the real deal.


    This person was really bold. He actually dared to make a move against a core Jade Sword disciple in the holy land¡¯s territory.


    ¡°Flying Snow! Come back!¡±


    Taking advantage of his Master¡¯s Sword Qi, Hua Jun wanted to summon the flying sword back at the first possible moment.


    At the same time, his divine sense communicated with heaven and earth, and wisps of light wind brushed past his face.


    Wind Call Sword Control!


    These two divine abilities were activated at the same time.


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand firmly grabbed onto the flying sword.


    He did not make any other movements. Before the protective Sword Qi on Hua Jun¡¯s body disappeared, he could not do anything to Hua Jun..


    That stream of Sword Qi was too terrifying. It should have been left on Hua Jun¡¯s body by a mighty Dragon Transformation figure.


    Otherwise, there¡¯s no way he would have gotten goosebumps.


    But it didn¡¯t matter. The Sword Qi would dissipate in five breaths at most.


    Hua Jun would be dead by then.


    Why was Zhou Feng so confident?


    In addition to breaking through the Divine Ability realm and cultivating the Great Void Primordial Art, there was also a passive skill that would not allow Hua Jun to escape Zhou Feng¡¯s palm. That was none other than the passive Battle Experience!


    Battle Experience: When you fight the same enemy multiple times, your damage increases and damage reduction increases by 25%.


    Every time you fight, you gain a 5% increase. (Max: 5 stacks)


    Damage reduction applied to whatever that Hua Jun threw at him, and it would directly reduce the corresponding percentage. The damage increase was equal to the percentage of any attack that Zhou Feng used on Hua Jun.


    With this increase and decrease, the distance between the two parties was greatly increased.


    Catching a flying sword with his bare hands?


    Other than the passive Battle Experience¡¯s buffs, his right hand was engulfed in Great Void Primordial Qi. This was just a small matter.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi had many other uses besides killing the enemy. Once again, Hua Jun¡¯s Wind Call summoned a gale that tore through flesh and bones.


    However, Zhou Feng remained unmoved. The Great Void Primordial Qi had already formed a shield around his entire body.


    The gale that had almost killed Zhou Feng the last time was ineffective now.


    ¡°How is this possible? How is this possible!?¡±


    Hua Jun crazily activated the mark on the flying sword in an attempt to summon the flying sword back to his side.


    At the same time, he started to stir the power of heaven and earth, making the Wind Call¡¯s gale even more violent.


    However, Zhou Feng was unmoving like a mountain. He just watched Hua Jun¡¯s performance quietly.


    Hua Jun panicked immediately. He could not understand it no matter how hard he tried.


    Was the gap between him and Zhou Feng so big? How had it turned into a one-sided battle!?


    Hua Jun was originally in high spirits, but Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was akin to a resounding slap on his face.


    ¡®Run!¡¯


    At this moment, a word appeared in Hua Jun¡¯s mind.


    He had to flee while his Master¡¯s Sword Qi was still protecting him!


    As long as he could escape to Linxian City, he would be safe.


    Hua Jun felt Zhou Feng¡¯s dense killing intent and knew that it would be useless no matter what he said.


    Even if he used the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s name, it would still be the same.


    This person was audacious. He could tell from attacking the city guards in Linxian City. Therefore, rather than bringing out the holy land, it was better to escape quickly.


    As for the flying sword, which was extremely precious before, escaping was far more important now.


    As long as he kept his life, he would be able to get the flying sword back sooner or later.


    Hua Jun did not believe that Zhou Feng could contend against the entire holy land alone.


    The holy land did not even need to send out a Dragon Transformation expert. They only needed to send out a team of elite disciples. They would be able to kill Zhou Feng! ¡°Run?¡±


    Zhou Feng quietly stayed where he was and watched Hua Jun run away in a sorry state.

 Chapter 390 - You Cant Escape!

    Chapter 390 You Can¡¯t Escape!


    Zhou Feng quietly watched Hua Jun¡¯s fleeing figure.


    In the short battle just now, Zhou Feng had already discovered that the Great Void Primordial Qi was simply too useful.


    As long as his divine sense was strong enough, the Great Void Primordial Qi could transform into anything, such as void miasma.


    It could even form a thin layer of membrane outside the body, protecting it.


    Picking up a flying sword with his bare hands, such a dangerous thing, had become a possibility


    Moreover, Zhou Feng felt that the Great Void Primordial Art was far more miraculous than this.


    Back then, Human Emperor Great Void seemed to be able to ascend to the Human Emperor¡¯s throne just by relying on this divine ability alone.


    This Great Void Primordial Art would definitely have more miraculous uses.


    As Zhou Feng thought this, he began to collect the void miasma that he had previously spat out.


    Because that terrifying Sword Qi had mostly worn down the void miasma, he did not collect much Great Void Primordial Qi.


    But he did not really care.


    In any case, producing void miasma was very easy for him. He only needed to waste some Blood Qi and absorb Great Void Primordial Qi from another dimension.


    The strength of the Great Void Primordial Art completely depended on Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding of the Great Void Dao.


    The deeper one¡¯s understanding was, the stronger the Great Void Primordial Art would


    be.


    Therefore, there was no hesitation in using Great Void Primordial Qi.


    ¡°He didn¡¯t chase after me?¡±


    Hua Jun, who had fled in a sorry state, sensed that Zhou Feng was not chasing him.


    A trace of doubt arose in his heart. Given Zhou Feng¡¯s dense killing intent, he would obviously not let him off.


    Could it be because of the prestige of the holy land?


    Nah! it was also impossible!


    If Zhou Feng were worried about the Jade Sword Holy Land, he wouldn¡¯t have intercepted and tried to kill him here.


    Just as Hua Jun was feeling puzzled in his heart, his Master¡¯s protective Sword Qi finally dissipated.


    Although his Master was a Dragon Transformation expert, it was only a stream of Sword Qi. It could protect Hua Jun for a limited time, not his entire life.


    When the protective Sword Qi dissipated, Hua Jun was alarmed.


    Danger!


    An unprecedented danger!


    ¡°What is that? Starlight?¡±


    Hua Jun suddenly saw a trace of starlight from the corner of his eyes.


    However, it was daytime now. How could there be starlight? In the next second, Zhou Feng¡¯s figure appeared in front of Hua Jun.


    ¡°How could he be so fast!? Just a little bit


    more!¡±


    Hua Jun became nervous.


    He was just a little bit away from Linxian City. As long as he returned to Linxian City, it would be much more difficult for Zhou Feng to kill him.


    101


    Unfortunately, Hua Jun did not have the chance!


    Zhou Feng took a deep breath, gathered all the Great Void Primordial Qi into one ball in his mouth, and exhaled, shooting void miasma out like an arrow!


    Zhou Feng directly spat out an invisible void arrow.


    It was astonishingly fast, and it pierced Hua Jun¡¯s chest in an instant.


    Without the flying sword in hand or his Master¡¯s protective Sword Qi, Hua Jun suffered a direct hit without the slightest resistance.


    A huge hole appeared.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi was not only inextinguishable, but it could also corrode everything


    The physical body that came into contact with the Great Void Primordial Qi was corroded without the slightest residue left.


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape! Unless you break through to the Dragon Transformation Realm within a month! Otherwise¡ª¡±


    Before he died, a wave of resentment appeared on Hua Jun¡¯s face.


    That vicious gaze stared fiercely at Zhou Feng.


    At that moment, Hua Jun only regretted he hadn¡¯t had the heart to chase after and kill Zhou Feng back then.


    Instead, he had wanted to check on his flying sword. If he had been hellbent on killing Zhou Feng back then¡­


    Then he would not have met his doom today!


    But it did not matter. This person in front of him would eventually come down to accompany him.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t escape the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s pursuit unless he were like the Resentful Ghost Elder, who had broken through to the Dragon Transformation realm in an extremely short period and could withstand the siege of three Dragon Transformation experts.


    Otherwise, Zhou Feng would definitely die.


    As for escaping? There was no way to escape!


    Before Hua Jun completely lost consciousness, he immediately burned his soul.


    He condensed a sword-shaped mark and flew directly toward Zhou Feng.


    This was the mark of the dead soul, a technique that all core Jade Sword disciples had to master.


    This mark of the dead soul had to be activated by burning one¡¯s soul, so it was usually not used except in situations where one was certain to die.


    And this mark of the dead soul could ignore almost all defenses and directly imprint itself on the enemy¡¯s body.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land could find Zhou Feng based on this imprint.


    This was also why Hua Jun believed that Zhou Feng would die without a doubt.


    Actually, many large factions had similar techniques. The purpose was to ensure the inheritance and the genius disciples under them.


    ¡®The Great Void Primordial Qi actually couldn¡¯t block it!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    He had been careless this time. He should have hit his head and destroyed his soul.


    He shouldn¡¯t have let Hua Jun fight back like he did just now.


    However, the mark was useless.


    He had the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth, so the mark could be purified the next day.


    The most important thing now was to leave, as the people in Linxian City seemed to have noticed their battle.


    He skillfully searched Hua Jun¡¯s body.


    This person had just come out of the auction, so there should be a lot of good stuff.


    Zhou Feng finished his search in 10 seconds and then used the passive Bloodline Simulation to change his aura.


    He was ready to return to the cave as soon as possible and start fleeing.


    Since Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t stay in the Jade Sword Holy Land anymore, he might as well head the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land and the Jade Lake Holy Land had a deep grudge, so the former¡¯s tentacles wouldn¡¯t be able to reach there.


    ¡°Who is it!? How dare you kill a disciple of my holy land!?! Who is it!?¡±


    A person rushed over on his sword. When he saw Hua Jun¡¯s body, he was furious.


    This person raised his head and roared, trying to find out where the murderer was.


    Hua Jun was killed outside Linxian City.


    This news instantly spread throughout Linxian City.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land instantly went crazy! How many years had it been since a core disciple had fallen within the holy land¡¯s sphere of influence?


    The murderer had to be brought to justice!


    Hua Jun¡¯s death even implicated all the big clans in Linxian City.


    This was because these clans had not rescued Hua Jun.


    The Xia Clan was also the first to bear the brunt of this. If the Xia Clan had not organized this so-called auction, Hua Jun would not have gone out. As long as Hua Jun remained in Linxian City, he would not have been in any danger.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s direct interrogation shocked the Xia Clan utterly!


    It hadn¡¯t been easy for the Xia Clan to use this auction to hold their head up high and intimidate the other clans.


    Moreover, the other clans had begun to accept the Xia Clan. How could such a thing happen?


    Zhou Feng!


    These two words instantly resounded in the ears of many people.


    This was the person that had killed a core disciple of the holy land.


    Moreover, this person was a vagabond cultivator!


    This time, many people started to get excited. Would he become another Resentful Ghost Elder?


    Back then, the Resentful Ghost Elder had raised a sh*tstorm by eradicating a city and killing many disciples of the holy land.


    Naturally, many cultivators were filled with dissatisfaction due to the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s overbearing pressure.


    Now that the Jade Sword Holy Land was suffering, these people were secretly happy.


    Of course, they didn¡¯t dare to show their happiness on their faces~

 Chapter 391 - A Divination Technique

    Chapter 391 A Divination Technique


    ¡°Zhou Feng! A vagabond cultivator! He seems to have come from the savage lands¡­


    ¡°He is an initial-stage Divine Ability cultivator, and his recovery ability is astonishing¡­


    ¡°He has an extremely self-centered personality and doesn¡¯t care about the threats of others. As long as one makes a move against him, he will definitely retaliate¡­¡±


    111


    It didn¡¯t take long for the Jade Sword Holy Land to gather a lot of information about Zhou Feng.


    They even found out that Zhou Feng had killed another disciple of the holy land.


    It wasn¡¯t difficult for a huge force like the Jade Sword Holy Land to gather this kind of intel.


    It could even be said to be extremely easy. Even if Zhou Feng had dealt with it cleanly, it was not a problem to restore the original crime scene with all sorts of strange techniques.


    Not to mention that there were still some witnesses left behind.


    ¡°Then can we track down this person?¡± Xia Chunqiu asked coldly.


    ¡°Of course! This person has the mark of the dead soul on him. There¡¯s no way he can escape! We just need to use this compass to track down this person¡¯s location.¡±


    The disciple of the holy land in front of Xia Chunqiu took out a compass. A needle on the compass pointed straight at Zhou Feng¡¯s cave. ¡°Then what are we waiting for? Let¡¯s hurry up and set off!¡± Ming Lihua immediately said when she heard that.


    ¡°No rush.¡±


    Kui Xiang did not have the slightest bit of impatience on his face. On the contrary, he was very calm.


    From the looks of it, he did not seem to care about Hua Jun¡¯s death at all.


    Indeed, Kui Xiang did not care about Hua Jun¡¯s death. He had only come here because of the holy land¡¯s orders.


    This time, the Jade Sword Holy Land did not send out many people to hunt down Zhou Feng


    On the contrary, they only sent out one person. Of course, because Linxian City was implicated, they had to cooperate with the operation to hunt down Zhou Feng.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land was not looking down on Zhou Feng by sending Kui Xiang alone. It could even be said that they valued him because Kui Xiang was not a simple person.


    He was a rather famous prodigy among the younger generation of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    That was because Kui Xiang was one of the few people who cultivated divination techniques.


    ¡°Not in a hurry? Why? Aren¡¯t you afraid that this person will escape to another place?¡±


    Ming Lihua could not understand what Kui Xiang was thinking.


    Since they knew Zhou Feng¡¯s location, it was a must to kill Zhou Feng at the first moment.


    If they wasted their time here, what would happen if Zhou Feng ran away?


    Ming Lihua couldn¡¯t be blamed for being anxious. After all, the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s pressure was aimed at their clans.


    If Zhou Feng escaped, then the Xia, Ming, and the other clans would have to pay the price to appease the holy land¡¯s anger.


    To be honest, Ming Lihua also didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be so strong.


    When she had encountered Zhou Feng in the teahouse, she had only felt that Zhou Feng was a bit extraordinary.


    Moreover, he had managed to catch a Celestial Spiritmirror Fish, indicating he should have some luck.


    He was someone that she could befriend.


    Still, she didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng¡¯s subsequent series of actions to shock her worldview.


    She had never met such a reckless person. It could even be said that he was crazy.


    When he had taken the bait, he hadn¡¯t hesitated to attack the City Lord Manor¡¯s guards. He had even forced Hua Jun to leave the city to kill him. In the end, Zhou Feng managed to escape.


    It was also said that Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword had been damaged during their fight.


    Zhou Feng seemed to be a bit too fierce!


    It should be known that Zhou Feng had only been a mere Purple Mansion cultivator at that time. When facing Hua Jun, a Divine Ability expert, not only had he been able to escape, but he also damaged Hua Jun¡¯s flying sword. This was simply inconceivable.


    But this wasn¡¯t the most shocking aspect.


    After more than a month had passed, Zhou Feng had broken through to the Divine Ability realm and killed Hua Jun, who had just left the Waterside Pavilion outside of Linxian City.


    This was simply crazy! Ming Lihua could not fathom it.


    Given his talent and potential, why couldn¡¯t he endure it for a while?


    With the potential that Zhou Feng had displayed, he had a chance to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Were all the vagabond cultivators nowadays so hot-tempered?


    ¡°Because I just made¡­ a divination. If we chase after this person, there is a 90% chance that we will all be annihilated, and the remaining 10% chance is that I will escape alone!¡±


    Kui Xiang¡¯s face was indifferent, and he didn¡¯t seem to be surprised.


    ¡°What? All of us will be wiped out!?¡±


    Ming Lihua seemed to be in disbelief.


    Kui Xiang and the clans¡¯ elites totaled six Divine Ability cultivators.


    Six Divine Ability cultivators against one? How could they lose?


    Clearly, the advantage was theirs!


    Not to mention whether it was Xia Chunqiu or Ming Lihua, their strength was not something that ordinary Divine Ability experts could compare to.


    This made Ming Lihua very suspicious of whether Kui Xiang had miscalculated.


    Not only Ming Lihua but even Xia Chunqiu and the other elites behind her had a trace of doubt on their faces.


    Even if Zhou Feng was terrifying and they couldn¡¯t win after joining hands, they could at least escape, couldn¡¯t they?


    Completely annihilated? That was impossible!


    ¡°Hmm?¡±


    Kui Xiang¡¯s indifferent expression disappeared and was replaced by a cold expression.


    In an instant, it was as if flames were roasting the surroundings, and then it was as if it had turned into a snowy day.


    That strange alternation of heat and cold caused everyone present to feel a trace of fear.


    Only Xia Chunqiu and Ming Lihua could barely withstand it.


    At that point, Ming Lihua came to her senses. The person in front of her was a core Jade Sword disciple.


    Putting everything else aside, just his strength alone was enough to crush them.


    ¡°How troublesome! Is there still anyone alive in the Lu Clan?¡±


    Suddenly, Kui Xiang¡¯s nonchalant expression returned, and he asked about the Lu Clan¡¯s situation.


    The Lu Clan was the clan that had plotted against Zhou Feng back then.


    It was also because of the Lu Clan¡¯s greed that Zhou Feng had clashed with the City Lord Manor, resulting in Zhou Feng and Hua Jun becoming enemies.


    It was also because of the Lu Clan that the holy land lost an elite disciple.


    Naturally, there was no chance for the Lu Clan to be spared.


    ¡°The Lu Clan has already been slaughtered. Not a single person survived!¡±


    Ming Lihua heaved a sigh of relief as Kui Xiang took the initiative to change the topic.


    ¡°Very good,¡± Kui Xiang only replied with two simple words.


    After that, he fell silent and began to calculate the consequences secretly.


    To be honest, when Kui Xiang had been calculating the consequences of chasing Zhou Feng, he was also shocked.


    This vagabond cultivator who had come from the savage lands had actually hidden so deeply.


    According to his intel, this Zhou Feng had just broken through to the Divine Ability realm.


    The six of them would be fighting against a vagabond cultivator who had just broken through to the Divine Ability realm, yet they were all wiped out.


    Kui Xiang had also thought that he had made a mistake at the beginning.


    However, after a few more divination attempts, Kui Xiang knew that Zhou Feng was a dangerous individual.


    For this reason, Kui Xiang chose to follow his heart and call for reinforcements.


    And this was also the reason the Jade Sword Holy Land would dispatch Kui Xiang to deal with this matter.


    Cultivating a divination technique could help one avoid misfortune and predict the future.


    After the matter with the Resentful Ghost Elder, the Jade Sword Holy Land had clearly learned their lesson. They would definitely not give a vagabond cultivator to rise up like the Resentful Ghost Elder.


    The first strike was a lightning strike, not allowing the enemy to have any strength to retaliate.


    And the only ones who could do this were those who cultivated mystical techniques.

 Chapter 392 - Found him!

    Chapter 392 Found him!


    A powerful force with a long history like the Jade Sword Holy Land would make a summary every time they lost.


    Thus, they would be prepared for similar things to happen again.


    Only in this way would they be able to pass on their heritage better.


    As for the Resentful Ghost Elder¡¯s case, this matter was still extremely rare.


    Under normal circumstances, most of the cultivation resources were monopolized by the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    It was not easy for one or two outstanding vagabond cultivators to appear.


    Therefore, after the Resentful Ghost Elder incident, the Jade Sword Holy Land specially groomed some people to study mystical techniques.


    Kui Xiang was one of them. This kind of person was very good at tracking, investigating, and predicting good and bad luck.


    Such abilities could strangle some promising vagabond cultivators in the cradle.


    Of course, Kui Xiang would sometimes help the holy land find talented geniuses.


    In any case, the Jade Sword Holy Land had sent Kui Xiang to prevent Zhou Feng from escaping and growing up. ¡°Eh? The mark of the dead soul disappeared!?¡±


    At this moment, Kui Xiang suddenly realized that the mark on Zhou Feng¡¯s body had disappeared.


    Moreover, the strangest thing was that he couldn¡¯t calculate Zhou Feng¡¯s position.


    How was this possible!?


    It had not been more than a day since he arrived there.


    How did Zhou Feng do It? Not only could he disperse the death soul mark on his body, but he could also hide his tracks.


    ¡°Fortunately, I was not rash before. It was indeed a great omen of danger!¡±


    This change also proved from another angle that Zhou Feng was not simple.


    If Kui Xiang had brought people to surround and kill Zhou Feng previously, it was very likely that they would have been wiped out.


    Fortunately, he had chosen to call for help.


    Logically, it was about time for the cavalry to arrive. Now, they could investigate Zhou Feng¡¯s position.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Zhou Feng did not know that he was being targeted by someone who cultivated a mystical technique.


    He had already left that temporary cave abode, changed his identity, and was prepared to leave the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    ¡°What a great harvest! This is¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng rode on Big Yellow while inspecting Hua Jun¡¯s storage ring.


    There were not many Spirit Stones in this storage ring. Instead, there were a lot of various ore materials.


    From the looks of it, it seemed that Hua Jun had prepared them for forging flying swords.


    Because there were too many of them, he was too lazy to appraise them one by one. When the time came, he would find a safe place to appraise them all.


    Since there were so many refining materials, it seemed like he could try to get himself a spiritual artifact.


    Other than the refining materials, the few jade slips surprised Zhou Feng the most.


    If he did not see wrongly, this seemed to be the cultivation method of the Jade Sword Holy Land?


    ¡°What a pity. It¡¯s actually not a divine ability!¡±


    What made Zhou Feng feel somewhat regretful was that the cultivation method contained in these jade slips wasn¡¯t the divine ability of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    They were just a few auxiliary cultivation methods.


    One of them was called the Sword Nurturing Technique, which could better utilize the body and soul to nurture a flying sword.


    Moreover, there was a probability that the flying sword would obtain spirituality faster.


    Obviously, this was a supplementary technique that was compatible with Sword Control.


    Unfortunately, this method could only work on flying swords. Although he could use it for other spiritual artifacts, the effect would be greatly reduced.


    Next was a technique called Condensing Qi into Threads.


    These things were basically useless to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Soul Concentration Technique? Condensing divine sense?¡±


    Zhou Feng soon found a useful technique.


    Soul Concentration Technique! This was a supplementary technique that specialized in condensing divine sense.


    It could make one¡¯s divine sense more tenacious and pure.


    Originally, Hua Jun had cultivated this technique in order to control the flying sword better.


    Just from these few techniques, it could be seen that an elite disciple of a holy land like Hua Jun would not only cultivate one divine ability. Apart from cultivating three or four divine abilities, they would also cultivate all kinds of auxiliary techniques to make themselves stronger.


    Often, a divine ability would have several auxiliary techniques.


    Therefore, once they learned another divine ability, they had to learn more auxiliary techniques.


    No wonder it was said that the more divine abilities one comprehended, the stronger they would be.


    If they all cultivated according to this standard, then these disciples of the holy land were simply terrifying.


    Vagabond cultivators or disciples of some small forces couldn¡¯t have the corresponding supporting techniques.


    Unconsciously, Zhou Feng felt a trace of pressure.


    ¡°Then, what about the supporting techniques of the Great Void Primordial Art?¡±


    Zhou Feng fell into deep thought.


    It was also possible that Human Emperor Great Void had not thought so much back then.


    One could even dare to guess that after such a long time, although Human Emperor Great Void was a powerful individual, his divine ability could not be compared to some constantly optimized divine abilities.


    After all, the entire cultivation world was constantly improving. The more ancient something was, the more powerful it was?


    This was almost impossible! Because the entire cultivation world did not stop changing


    Instead, it passed down very steadily and even became more and more powerful.


    According to the law of things developing in a wave-like manner, an inheritance would advance in a spiral-like manner.


    The Great Void Primordial Art was no longer on the list of top divine abilities.


    It was not that the Great Void Primordial Art was not powerful enough, but that it had not undergone a long period of optimization.


    If Zhou Feng wanted to take it one step further, he had to create the corresponding auxiliary techniques or optimize the Great Void Primordial Art.


    ¡°It¡¯s difficult!¡±


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng felt that his path of cultivation was challenging.


    It seemed that he would never be able to surpass the disciples of those large factions by relying on his own strength.


    Fortunately, he had the skill panel.


    After killing Hua Jun, the skill panel had absorbed a large amount of destiny power.


    His progress bar had increased by more than half. It should not be long before he could draw out passive skills again.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt a sense of prying eyes. It was as if someone was spying on him.


    Moreover, there was no reaction from Big Yellow at all.


    Thanks to Zhou Feng¡¯s breakthrough to the Divine Ability realm, Big Yellow¡¯s perception and sense of smell were basically far superior to his.


    Therefore, if there was an enemy nearby, Big Yellow would definitely notice it immediately.


    Yet, Big Yellow did not have any reaction now.


    Instead, he continued to press forward.


    ¡®It disappeared? An illusion?¡¯


    a


    The feeling of being spied on only lasted for a few seconds. It was so short that Zhou Feng thought it was an illusion.


    Could it be that he had been under too much pressure recently, and that was why he had an illusion?


    This thought had just arisen when he rejected


    it.


    Impossible! He did not feel any pressure at all. The pursuit of the Jade Sword Holy Land sounded possible.


    But Zhou Feng is more confident about his own strength. This was definitely not an illusion. Someone was watching him in some way.


    ¡®People from Jade Sword Holy Land? I¡¯ve changed my aura through Bloodline Simulations, yet they can still find me!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes slightly narrowed. He ordered Big Yellow to speed up and leave the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s reach.


    ¡°Found him!¡±


    Kui Xiang immediately put away the compass in his hand, and his face suddenly turned pale.


    ¡®What kind of monster is this? Why does it consume so much energy? And why did it seem like he detected it!?¡¯


    Kui Xiang¡¯s face was pale, and he was a little uncertain in his heart.

 Chapter 393 - Still a Sign of Great Danger?

    Chapter 393 Still a Sign of Great Danger?


    Kui Xiang had never thought that deducing the position of a Divine Ability cultivator would consume so much energy.


    It had almost sucked him dry just now.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng seemed to have detected his wondrous mystical technique.


    This was an extremely abnormal situation.


    Kui Xiang used Hua Jun¡¯s murderer as karma. He and Hua Jun were from the same sect.


    In addition, there was the suppression of the sect¡¯s luck, and it was to take revenge for Hua Jun.


    Under normal circumstances, the consumption of this calculation should not have been too great. Also, Zhou Feng would definitely not have discovered it.


    But the reality was that he had almost been sucked dry, and Zhou Feng even knew that someone was trying to find him. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    When Jiang Yi saw Kui Xiang¡¯s expression, his brows furrowed even more tightly.


    That¡¯s right! Kui Xiang¡¯s helper was Jiang Yi.


    After all, Celestial Lake City was not far from there. Moreover, Jiang Yi had previously claimed to be Zhou Feng¡¯s brother.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land had long investigated all of Zhou Feng¡¯s deeds.


    They even knew that Zhou Feng had bathed in the immortal lake and that it had something to do with Jiang Yi.


    To be honest, when Jiang Yi received the news, he was shell-shocked.


    He had never thought that Zhou Feng would be so crazy or that his strength would improve so quickly.


    When he had encountered Zhou Feng, the latter was a puny Purple Mansion cultivator.


    How could he suddenly break through to the Divine Ability realm and even kill Hua Jun, who had broken through the Divine Ability realm a long time ago?


    Even Jiang Yi was shocked by such a terrifying speed of improvement. No wonder the Great Elder had said that the opportunity for his breakthrough lay in Zhou Feng Now Jiang Yi completely understood that as long as he killed Zhou Feng, he would obtain the method for his breakthrough from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Therefore, when he had first met Zhou Feng, he should have killed him ruthlessly instead of secretly helping him.


    aus


    It was precisely because of this that Jiang Yi took the initiative to come over and help Kui Xiang.


    After all, given Jiang Yi¡¯s identity, he originally didn¡¯t need to do this kind of thing.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing! It¡¯s just that the consumption is a little big! The target is moving quickly. Let¡¯s hurry up!¡±


    Kui Xiang¡¯s nonchalant expression was no more, and he seemed swift and decisive now. He didn¡¯t even explain much and just ordered everyone to move.


    Jiang Yi, Xia Chunqiu, Ming Lihua, and the others also followed without hesitation.


    Kui Xiang seemed to be walking slowly, but his speed was top-notch. He surpassed everyone in an instant and was moving toward Zhou Feng¡¯s position.


    As for Jiang Yi, he was riding his sword; he was fast as well.


    When the remaining Xia Chunqiu and the others saw this, they could only display their divine abilities to prevent themselves from being left behind.


    ¡°Hexadirectional Calculation!¡±


    While he was walking, the compass in Kui Xiang¡¯s hand began to spin rapidly, and countless strings of data flowed through his eyes.


    In order to prevent Zhou Feng from discovering it again, Kui Xiang could be considered to have brought out his trump card this time.


    The Hexadirectional Calculation was one of the three great arts of the Mystical Sect. It mainly focused on the human element and tested human resources.


    The Hexadirectional Calculation was more difficult to judge. It was mainly because it used a three-dimensional form, an omnidirectional and multi-thinking method to examine everything.


    To put it simply, it was a little similar to big data.


    After putting all the data together, he began to analyze the patterns.


    This took into account talent very much. Because the amount of data was too large, the consumption was also too large.


    In just a short while, Kui Xiang¡¯s forehead was covered in a cold sweat, but he did not dare to relax even a little bit. All the factors related to Zhou Feng¡¯s deeds, personality, habits, and so on were all taken into account.


    ¡°Over there!¡±


    While he was calculating Kui Xiang, he was also taking the lead as he sped up.


    Jiang Yi and the others naturally followed closely behind.


    ¡°Ominous!? How is that possible!¡±


    ¡°No! Again! Ominous?¡±


    ¡°Again! Ominous?¡±


    Kui Xiang also calculated the good and bad luck of this operation in passing.


    Unexpectedly, it was actually a big ominous sign most of the time.


    This was simply unbelievable! Because this time, he had included Jiang Yi as a factor.


    Kui Xiang was very familiar with Jiang Yi, a true monster that had cultivated three divine abilities and was just one step away from the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Would such a figure be a great danger on their side even if they tested him?


    Through countless calculations, Kui Xiang had calculated that only Jiang Yi would escape and survive in the end.


    Their team of Divine Ability cultivators would actually die?


    What secret did Zhou Feng have? Why? He had just broken through to the Divine Ability realm and already had this kind of strength.


    Why? Why couldn¡¯t he calculate it?


    Kui Xiang¡¯s entire face turned pale, and his aura began to weaken.


    Unfortunately, he couldn¡¯t figure out what exactly was the factor that made Zhou Feng¡¯s strength so terrifying.


    Perhaps Kui Xiang would never know that there was such a heaven-defying thing as a skill panel until he died.


    If Zhou Feng did not have the skill panel, his strength would only be at the initial stage of the Divine Ability realm.


    It was almost impossible for him to fight against Jiang Yi. He could not even defeat Xia Chunqiu and Ming Lihua.


    However, with the support of passive skills, his strength was a mystery.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that something was wrong, even though the feeling of spying didn¡¯t appear again.


    But he always felt that something was wrong.


    It was as if someone was chasing after him from behind.


    For this reason, he had already changed directions many times.


    However, every time he changed directions, it didn¡¯t take long for that strange feeling to appear again.


    This made Big Yellow look at him with a puzzled expression.


    ¡°Could it be divination?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately suspected a divination technique.


    Divination was one of the mystical techniques. This ability to infer everything seemed to have been mastered by some people.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know much about the Mystical Sect.


    Many of them were hearsay because mystical techniques were really very mysterious.


    The strange feeling he had now was like being targeted by someone who had cultivated mystical techniques.


    Zhou Feng still believed in his body¡¯s instincts compared to other things.


    Sometimes, Zhou Feng felt that his intuition could be used as a divine ability.


    Every time there was danger, he would be able to predict it in advance.


    ¡®Looks like I won¡¯t be able to escape the pursuit of the Jade Sword Holy Land. Then¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly stopped.


    That¡¯s right! He didn¡¯t want to continue escaping. Instead, he wanted to meet the person who was chasing after him.


    Ever since breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, he hadn¡¯t really used his full strength.


    Even against Hua Jun, he had only used a little strength to finish him off.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng believed that as long as the Jade Sword Holy Land didn¡¯t send out a Dragon Transformation expert, he didn¡¯t need to be afraid.


    Moreover, the Starseizer Steps gave him great confidence.


    If he had to run, Zhou Feng would definitely be able to run away.


    With the Starseizer Steps and all sorts of passive skills, he could even run for a few days and nights.


    ¡°Big Yellow, hide first!¡±


    Since they were actually going to fight, Zhou Feng naturally had to let Big Yellow hide.


    After all, the next battle should be between Divine Ability cultivators.


    Big Yellow could not participate at all.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow barked and instantly continued to run forward.


    That straightforward response stunned Zhou


    Feng.


    ¡®Big Yellow, this fellow seems to have become smarter.¡¯

 Chapter 394 - Kill One First

    Chapter 394 Kill One First


    ¡°The target has stopped!¡±


    Kui Xiang¡¯s face became even paler, and then he suddenly stopped.


    Just now, he had led Jiang Yi and the others to change directions, chasing after Zhou Feng constantly.


    However, he was becoming more and more uncertain in his heart.


    That sense of danger was slowly increasing.


    Kui Xiang cultivated a mystical technique, so his sense of danger far surpassed that of an ordinary person.


    ¡®Why is that? I have so many life-saving methods, so why is it so dangerous?¡¯


    Kui Xiang didn¡¯t quite understand.


    Not to mention that they had a terrifying combatant like Jiang Yi.


    Just him alone had many life-saving methods.


    The most important thing in cultivating a unique technique was the life-saving aspect. Under normal circumstances, unless Zhou Feng had already reached the Dragon Transformation realm, he wouldn¡¯t be in danger.


    Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t be in any danger.


    But that sense of crisis never went away. This made Kui Xiang very puzzled. ¡°Just up ahead?¡±


    Jiang Yi did not notice Kui Xiang¡¯s face.


    After learning that Zhou Feng was in front, he wanted to hurry and take down Zhou Feng to find his breakthrough opportunity from Zhou Feng¡¯s corpse. Naturally, Jiang Yi was kind of impatient.


    Xia Chunqiu, Ming Lihua, and the others were not willing to be outdone and directly followed.


    From what they knew, this operation would not end up in failure.


    With so many of them, it would be a piece of cake to surround and attack a vagabond cultivator who had just broken through to the Divine Ability realm.


    Kui Xiang was the only one hanging at the back, and he had no intention of getting close to Zhou Feng


    ¡°I¡¯ll observe from a distance here!¡±


    Kui Xiang felt that if he took a few more steps forward, he would have a feeling of fear and trepidation.


    Therefore, he stood at a very ambiguous distance, which was just enough to see Zhou Feng¡¯s figure faintly.


    At the same time, he could instantly disappear from Zhou Feng¡¯s sight.


    ¡®Are they here?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had sensed many auras a long time ago.


    Two of those auras belonged to two people with whom he was very familiar.


    ;Jiang Yi?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw Jiang Yi, he was a little surprised but felt it was normal as well.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    At that moment, Jiang Yi looked extremely cold, and he didn¡¯t intend to chit-chat at all.


    Sword Control! It exploded instantly!


    A flying sword that was shining with purple light pierced through the air and pointed at Zhou Feng¡¯s glabella.


    The other Divine Ability cultivators behind Jiang Yi also surrounded Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng frowned, and the Great Void Primordial Qi in his body gushed out.


    The invincible Great Void Primordial Qi sent Jiang Yi¡¯s flying sword flying.


    At the same time, countless cuts were made on the ground under Zhou Feng¡¯s feet.


    ¡°Four Seasons of Reincarnation!¡±


    Xia Chunqiu also suddenly made a hand seal. Zhou Feng felt as if he had instantly transmigrated into a scorching summer.


    A wave of hot air blew against his face. This was different from the ordinary hot air.


    This kind of heat could even be emitted from within his body.


    Four Seasons of Reincarnation! This was the Xia Clan¡¯s divine ability.


    According to legends, it was a divine ability created by imitating the four seasons of heaven and earth.


    Xia Chunqiu was also one of the few geniuses in the Xia Clan who could master the four seasons of reincarnation.


    Xia Chunqiu wanted to quickly cooperate with the people of the Jade Sword Holy Land and bring Zhou Feng to justice, as it would have the least impact on the Xia Clan.


    In order to integrate into Linxian City, the Xia Clan had prepared so much and even built the Waterside Pavilion.


    This was all to forcefully integrate into the alliance of the major clans in Linxian City. Only then would the Xia Clan be able to share the rarest cultivation resources.


    It was precisely because of this idea that Xia Chunqiu made her move without the slightest hesitation.


    ¡®Let¡¯s get rid of the other small fries first.¡¯


    Since Xia Chunqiu was the first to make her move, he focused his attention on her.


    In his perception, other than Jiang Yi, no one else present could threaten him at all.


    Therefore, in order to deal with them better, it was best to get rid of these small fries first.


    Great Void Primordial Qi gushed out. Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was radiating with light as if his divine body was shining in the world. The formless Great Void Primordial Qi was like clouds that surrounded his body.


    One punch!


    The speed boost from the Starseizer Steps made Zhou Feng seem as if he had teleported.


    Xia Chunqiu¡¯s pupils constricted as if she did not dare to believe that Zhou Feng¡¯s speed was so fast.


    However, both of her hands subconsciously formed a seal.


    The surroundings instantly became chilly again, and Xia Chunqiu directly froze Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Kacha!¡±


    Unfortunately, this was completely unable to block Zhou Feng¡¯s ordinary punch.


    ¡°Quick! Do it!¡±


    ¡°Hurry up and do it! Subdue this thief!¡±


    At that moment, the others finally reacted. The entire exchange had only happened in an instant, after all.


    From Zhou Feng¡¯s flying sword under his crotch to Xia Chunqiu¡¯s attack, and finally Zhou Feng¡¯s counterattack, this process didn¡¯t even take four seconds.


    A hint of surprise had even appeared on Jiang Yi¡¯s face.


    His flying sword had been blocked just like that? What kind of divine ability was this!?


    ¡°Pu!¡±


    This punch that was imbued with Great Void Primordial Qi instantly shattered Xia Chunqiu¡¯s defense.


    Even the spiritual artifact protecting her body was instantly destroyed.


    The combination of the Great Void Primordial Qi and the invincible physical body was truly too violent.


    In just a single exchange, Xia Chunqiu, the favored daughter of the heavens, actually lost?


    Moreover, it was a crushing defeat, the kind where she didn¡¯t have the strength to retaliate.


    This made Xia Chunqiu find it hard to accept.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng could already feel the violent energy undulations behind his back at this time, but his current thought was to crush Xia Chunqiu to death.


    Who asked this person in front of him actually to dare to jump like this?


    Although she was pretty good-looking, she could only die now!


    He swung his golden fist and smashed it onto Xia Chunqiu¡¯s body.


    Instantly, Xia Chunqiu¡¯s entire body was like a rag doll. A large hole was created, and she fell to the ground. However, the price for this was that Zhou Feng¡¯s back was completely left to the enemy.


    The rest of the Divine Ability cultivators used their divine abilities one after another and bombarded Zhou Feng¡¯s back.


    Boom!


    There were all sorts of colors, deafening explosions, and the dust that was stirred up.


    ¡°I hit him!¡±


    Jiang Yi felt as if his flying sword had stabbed Zhou Feng


    However, for some reason, his sense of unease grew stronger.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Amidst the dust in the air, Xia Chunqiu felt a golden light rush toward her.


    Then, she felt her neck being grabbed.


    During this process, Xia Chunqiu tried her best to resist.


    ¡°Get lost!¡±


    Xia Chunqiu was scared! She could not maintain her previous calm expression at this moment and started to activate the life-saving spiritual artifact on her body.


    All kinds of lights flashed continuously, but they were all destroyed by Zhou Feng¡¯s Great Void Primordial Qi.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi itself had the characteristic of shattering void, and it was specialized in restraining things like this shield.


    In addition, the Great Void Primordial Qi could change into all kinds of forms.


    Thus, Xia Chunqiu¡¯s life-saving spiritual artifact had no effect at all.


    The most fatal thing was that the Great Void Primordial Qi could also invade Xia Chunqiu¡¯s body.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi was a terrifying weapon to Zhou Feng, but to others, it was a deadly poison.


    Xia Chunqiu felt that her entire body was being corroded.

 Chapter 395 - The only Chance of Survival

    Chapter 395 The only Chance of Survival


    Zhou Feng had been contemplating how to use the Great Void Primordial Qi for a long time.


    Among them, he discovered that the Great Void Primordial Qi was actually very corrosive to others.


    Once the Great Void Primordial Qi entered one¡¯s body, unless the target was also proficient in the Great Void Dao, it would corrode the body.


    Hence, Xia Chunqiu¡¯s body was being corroded by Zhou Feng¡¯s Great Void Primordial Qi.


    She was completely unable to circulate the divine power in her body. Instead, she was just waiting for death.


    was


    This was simply a disaster for Xia Chunqiu.


    ¡°Am I going to die?¡¯


    Before this, Xia Chunqiu had never thought that she would die here.


    Because before this, Xia Chunqiu had been under the impression that no matter how powerful Zhou Feng was, it would be impossible for him to kill her instantly.


    She always had a chance to escape. This was her confidence in herself.


    But in reality, her thoughts were laughable.


    Xia Chunqiu¡¯s various methods were unable to shake Zhou Feng, who was enveloped by the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    And her various life-saving methods were also unable to resist Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying fists.


    At that moment, countless memories flashed through Xia Chunqiu¡¯s mind.


    Ever since she was young, she was the favored daughter of heaven. Regardless of cultivation or other aspects, she was several times faster than the rest of the clan.


    She had even broken through to the Divine Ability realm in an extremely short period.


    She had even cultivated the Four Seasons of Reincarnation divine ability and could use the power of the four seasons.


    Moreover, she even became friends with a Dragon Transformation strange fish in the middle of the lake by chance.


    Xia Chunqiu only needed to clean the parasitic things on the body of that Dragon Transformation strange fish once in a while, and she would be able to get that Dragon Transformation strange fish to help the Xia Clan.


    Xia Chunqiu was definitely an FL.


    Unfortunately, Xia Chunqiu had no chance of survival before Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng did not know who he had killed, nor did he know about Xia Chunqiu¡¯s background.


    The expressionless Zhou Feng severed Xia Chunqiu¡¯s head and kicked it, just like he would do back in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Xia Chunqiu was deader than dead!


    Xia Chunqiu, who was known as Fairy Chunqiu, had died instantly.


    All of this happened too quickly.


    This man in front of them did not seem to have any feelings. He didn¡¯t even hold back against a beautiful fairy like her.


    ¡°Xia Chunqiu¡­¡±


    Ming Lihua was stunned when she saw Xia Chunqiu¡¯s beautiful head being kicked away.


    She couldn¡¯t accept it at all.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    ¡°You actually killed¡ª¡±.


    The dust dissipated, and Zhou Feng fell into everyone¡¯s sight. Zhou Feng was holding a headless corpse in his right hand. His upper body was naked, and there was a flying sword stuck to his back.


    The flying sword was still trembling crazily. It wanted to fly away, but Zhou Feng¡¯s stout muscles had locked it in place. The Great Void Primordial Qi was corroding the flying sword crazily, and a series of shrill sword cries sounded out.


    After seeing this scene, the people surrounding Zhou Feng not only swallowed their saliva but also felt a chill behind their backs.


    What kind of monster was this person? The dignified Fairy Chunqiu died just like that?


    She was supposed to be the next clan leader of the Xia Clan!


    If the Xia Clan knew that their next clan leader had died, they would go crazy!


    What kind of divine ability did this person use? Why was it so terrifying?


    Many people were scared out of their wits.


    Too Fierce!


    This person in front of them was too fierce!


    ¡°He¡¯s courting death!¡±


    When Jiang Yi saw this, he was also furious! He had underestimated Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    Jiang Yi had seen Zhou Feng before, so he had a better understanding of Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, Jiang Yi had not put Zhou Feng in his eyes.


    So what if Zhou Feng had broken through to the Divine Ability realm? So what if Zhou Feng had killed Hua Jun?


    It was already very unexpected that Zhou Feng had broken through to the Divine Ability realm in such a short period.


    Could it be that Zhou Feng had been able to cultivate a divine ability to perfection?


    As for killing Hua Jun, Zhou Feng must have used some kind of method. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to do it with just his own strength.


    The main reason was that Jiang Yi did not believe that Zhou Feng¡¯s strength could improve so quickly in such a short period.


    But now, Jiang Yi knew that he had misjudged Zhou Feng¡¯s strength once again.


    ¡®No wonder Kui Xiang wanted to invite me over. No wonder my breakthrough opportunity is with this person!¡¯


    Jiang Yi instantly reacted. Zhou Feng had a big secret.


    This big secret could allow Zhou Feng to break through at an exaggerated speed and boost his strength to such a level.


    If Jiang Yi could keep this secret for himself, breaking through to the Dragon Transformation realm would not be a problem.


    He could even continue to climb up.


    This secret could not be leaked out! Everyone present would have to die! Jiang Yi was silently and calmly analyzing, but his face displayed extreme anger.


    A dazzling purple light burst out from between Jiang Yi¡¯s brows. His terrifying divine sense flowed out like an ocean, and the flying sword in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was forcefully pulled out.


    A strange avatar of a purple longsword rose up.


    A sword hymn sounded like the roar of an ancient dragon. The surrounding earth began to tremble, and the purple Sword Qi began to leak out.


    Everyone in the vicinity, including Zhou Feng, was affected by this Sword Qi.


    ¡®Great danger! A great omen of danger!¡¯


    Kui Xiang, who had been hiding in the distance, became more and more uneasy.


    The compass needle in his hand began to spin randomly.


    ¡®I understand now! The danger is not related to Zhou Feng, but to Jiang Yi!¡¯


    Kui Xiang suddenly understood why Jiang Yi would be the sole survivor of their group.


    This was because the danger came from Jiang Yi and not from Zhou Feng.


    Only then did Kui Xiang understand why they had had a slight chance of surviving before asking Jiang Yi for help.


    But after asking Jiang Yi for help, even Kui Xiang could not escape.


    Before this, Kui Xiang could not understand why the divination result had been so strange. ¡®No! I still have a sliver of hope!¡¯


    In despair, Kui Xiang spat out a mouthful of blood from his heart. He wanted to use his last bit of strength to find a way out.


    ¡®My way out is¡­ Zhou Feng!? That¡¯s right! This person¡¯s strength is not weaker than Jiang Yi¡¯s, and he doesn¡¯t understand the Mystical Sect¡¯s techniques!


    Kui Xiang instantly understood that he had no chance of surviving against Jiang Yi.


    Jiang Yi was a core Jade Sword disciple and understood many of Kui Xiang¡¯s methods, such as Hexadirectional Calculation.


    As a core Jade Sword disciple, Jiang Yi had specially trained to deal with people who cultivated divination techniques.


    Jiang Yi even had a treasure that could counter Hexadirectional Calculation.


    Therefore, Kui Xiang¡¯s methods were useless before Jiang Yi.


    In the end, he would only die under the flying sword, no matter how far he ran.


    Once Sword Control was used, the flying sword would move!


    His head would be chopped off.


    On the contrary, as a vagabond cultivator, Zhou Feng did not know much about Hexadirectional Calculation.


    If he betrayed the sect at this moment and helped Jiang Yi to be killed, he could very well use Hexadirectional Calculation to fake his death.


    He could trick Zhou Feng and escape.


    This was Kui Xiang¡¯s only chance of survival at this moment!

 Chapter 396 - Why so Anxious?

    Chapter 396 Why so Anxious?


    While Kui Xiang was considering joining hands with Zhou Feng, Jiang Yi took out a formation disk, which instantly froze all the feng shui in the surroundings.


    The surrounding structure immediately turned into a Yin-Yang-stabilizing formation without Yin or Yang.


    After that, a large formation was activated, sealing off the surroundings.


    ¡®It¡¯s over!


    When Kui Xiang saw this, his entire body went limp.


    That was because his previous guess was actually true.


    Jiang Yi had no intention of letting everyone here go. Instead, he wanted to silence them all.


    n


    Although Kui Xiang did not know why Jiang Yi wanted to do this, he recognized this formation disk. It was a true treasure.


    Not only could it lock the area around them, but it also contained a sealing formation that was specially used to silence them.


    As long as something happened within this formation, all means of notifying the elders would lose their effectiveness, while most divination techniques would lose their effectiveness.


    There was also the fact that it was impossible to borrow the power of heaven and earth.


    Many divine abilities were essentially borrowing the power of heaven and earth, so many divine abilities were wasted.


    For example, Hua Jun¡¯s Wind Call was essentially borrowing the power of heaven and earth, but it would be useless in this sealing formation/


    ¡°This¡­ Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    Ming Lihua, who was still affected by Xia Chunqiu¡¯s death, instantly realized that something was wrong. Why were her eyebrows twitching? Why was this happening? She saw a huge amount of divine power coming out from Jiang Yi¡¯s glabella.


    The avatar of a divine sword slowly descended.


    Jiang Yi did not hesitate at all. Not only did he take out the precious formation disk, but he also revealed a strange avatar.


    This was completely not giving everyone present a chance to live!


    ¡°Sorry!¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s eyes were indifferent as he slowly floated into the air. A simple word came out of his mouth.


    Following that, the flying sword seemed to have broken the seal, and strands of Sword Qi swept around like a storm.


    ¡°Why!?¡±


    ¡°You!¡±


    ¡°Are you crazy?¡±


    This kind of indiscriminate attack made Ming Lihua and the others¡¯ faces change.


    They couldn¡¯t figure out why Jiang Yi would suddenly attack them. After all, they were here to help the Jade Sword Holy Land find the murderer.


    Was there something wrong?


    While these people were questioning Jiang Yi, they were also secretly using all kinds of methods to inform their elders.


    But soon, they realized that all their methods were useless.


    ¡°It won¡¯t happen!¡±


    Ming Lihua¡¯s palms started to break out in cold sweat, and her heart was beating fast because she had a premonition that she wouldn¡¯t live until tomorrow.


    She had broken through to the Divine Ability realm not long ago, and her cultivation path had just opened, yet it ended just like that!? She was in her prime now, and she had wasted a great amount of her youth!


    What puzzled her the most was the reason Jiang Yi would suddenly attack her.


    What benefit did this have for Jiang Yi? Even though Jiang Yi should be fine in the end, he would definitely have to bear a lot of pressure due to the death of so many geniuses.


    Although the Jade Sword Holy Land could ignore their clans, Jiang Yi wasn¡¯t the Jade Sword Holy Lord.


    Jiang Yi still had many enemies. Those enemies would definitely not let go of this opportunity to target Jiang Yi.


    Therefore, Ming Lihua couldn¡¯t understand why Jiang Yi suddenly attacked them.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Just as Ming Lihua¡¯s eyes were blurred, Zhou Feng¡¯s calm voice entered her ears.


    The eggshell-like protective shield was shattered instantly.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi destroyed all the protective items on Ming Lihua¡¯s body.


    Then, Zhou Feng¡¯s hand crushed Ming Lihua¡¯s neck.


    Ming Lihua, who was still in doubt, lost her breath.


    ¡°It¡¯s this person?¡± Zhou Feng threw Ming Lihua¡¯s body aside. He recognized her because he had met Ming Lihua once in Linxian City.


    But it was only a one-time encounter. Since she had dared to chase after him, she naturally had to pay a corresponding price.


    Although he didn¡¯t know why Jiang Yi suddenly went crazy and started killing all the helpers he had brought, Zhou Feng was certain that he would have a much easier time dealing with Jiang Yi without these helpers.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng and Jiang Yi actually worked together in tacit understanding and started killing all the other people in the formation.


    This scene was quite strange. Originally, Jiang Yi had brought a group of Divine Ability cultivators to chase after Zhou Feng.


    But now, he worked together with Zhou Feng to kill all the others.


    Of course, during this process, the Sword Qi emitted by Jiang Yi¡¯s flying sword did not deliberately avoid Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng almost used his physical body to resist it.


    Although this Sword Qi was powerful, it was not much of a problem for him as he had the protection of the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    In the end, only Kui Xiang was left in the formation with his last breath. The others had already lost their vitality.


    Looking at the corpses strewn all over the ground, Kui Xiang cried out in despair, ¡°Why!?¡±


    This cry was clearly aimed at Jiang Yi. It was as if he was questioning Jiang Yi why he was doing this.


    However, Jiang Yi was not the least bit moved. He just clenched his sword finger, and that incomparably sharp flying sword hummed.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! Why don¡¯t you join hands with me? As long as you can escape this calamity, I will pass on my legacy to you!¡±


    Seeing that Jiang Yi didn¡¯t intend to let him go, Kui Xiang immediately gave up.


    The most important thing for him was to survive.


    As for the sect rules and taboos, these were all thrown to the back of Kui Xiang¡¯s mind.


    If he wanted to survive now, he had to rely on Zhou Feng


    Therefore, Kui Xiang directly took out his most valuable possession. Among Kui Xiang¡¯s body, the most valuable thing was the inheritance of the Mystical Sect.


    ¡°If it weren¡¯t for this person, I would definitely not have ended up in this miserable state!¡±


    When he handed over his chips, a trace of resentment rose in Kui Xiang¡¯s heart.


    This trace of resentment was directed at Zhou Feng


    If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng, Kui Xiang would not have ended up in this state after all.


    Not to mention, Zhou Feng and Jiang Yi had intentionally or unintentionally joined hands just now, and all of his trump cards had been used up in an instant.


    Now, Kui Xiang was thinking about where he should run after escaping from this disaster and avoiding the sect¡¯s pursuit.


    ¡°How dare you!?¡±


    When Jiang Yi, who was originally as calm as an ancient well, heard these words, a trace of fluctuation flashed through his eyes, and his voice became stern. The flying sword flew toward Kui Xiang¡¯s glabella like lightning in the next moment.


    Kui Xiang¡¯s pupils constricted. He wanted to dodge, but he couldn¡¯t.


    However, Zhou Feng was like a ray of light in the next moment, walking to Kui Xiang even faster.


    Ding!


    The flying sword stabbed into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    At first, a clashing sound echoed, and then the tip of the sword stabbed into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Even with the protection of the Great Void Primordial Qi, Jiang Yi¡¯s flying sword was able to pierce through it and his physical defense.


    Although the flying sword had pierced into his body, Zhou Feng acted as if nothing had happened. Instead, he asked Jiang Yi calmly, ¡°Why so anxious?¡±

 Chapter 397 - Trapped

    Chapter 397 Trapped


    Normally, Zhou Feng would not speak during a battle. Still, he could not help but want to speak this time.


    To be honest, even Zhou Feng did not know what Jiang Yi was thinking. Why did he suddenly go crazy and royally f*ckred his own teammates?


    ¡°Those who betray the sect must die!¡±


    However, Jiang Yi did not answer Zhou Feng at all. He only said that those who betrayed the sect would die.


    Jiang Yi¡¯s emotions fluctuated because Kui Xiang actually dared to betray the sect. As for the inheritance of the Mystical Sect, it was secondary.


    Kui Xiang only let out a sigh of relief when he saw Zhou Feng block the flying sword.


    Fortunately, he had been decisive enough. Otherwise, he would have been stabbed to death just now.


    As for what Jiang Yi said, it did not threaten Kui Xiang at all.


    He would die anyway, so why was he still worried about betraying the sect? Wasn¡¯t this a joke?


    Kui Xiang was well-versed in the hearts of people, so he knew that he had to cling tightly to Zhou Feng¡¯s thigh in such a situation.


    Moreover, he had to let Zhou Feng taste the sweetness. He had to let Zhou Feng know that he would receive more rewards if he protected him.


    Only in this way would his little life be truly saved.


    As for whether Zhou Feng would make a move against him after he repelled Jiang Yi?


    This was absolutely inevitable. After all, Kui Xiang was a Jade Sword disciple.


    However, Kui Xiang¡¯s plan was very good. If Jiang Yi was repelled, the sealing formation in the surroundings would definitely be lifted.


    At that time, Kui Xiang would have plenty of means to escape.


    Hadn¡¯t Jiang Yi¡¯s dao formation disk been too powerful, Kui Xiang wouldn¡¯t have been in such a sorry state.


    ¡°This is called Hexadirectional Calculation! Moreover, this is the inheritance I obtained from another sect, not the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s Hexadirectional Calculation. So, there is no karma¡­¡±


    Kui Xiang made a prompt decision and took out a jade token, which he had accidentally obtained while he was traveling.


    It recorded the Hexadirectional Calculation, and it came from another sect. It was not passed down from the Jade Sword Holy Land, so Zhou Feng would not be affected by any karma ties.


    He had also relied on this to deduce Zhou Feng¡¯s position instead of the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s mystical techniques.


    This was the only thing Kui Xiang could use to save his life.


    One had to know that no mystical technique of the Jade Sword Holy Land could be passed down without permission. As long as Kui Xiang had a thought in his heart, he would feel like 10,000 ants were devouring him. This was a large sect¡¯s standard modus operandi.


    ¡°Apart from that, I have many other mystical inheritances that do not belong to a holy land!¡± Kui Xiang added after that.


    This was hinting at Zhou Feng. The subtext was that as long as his life was preserved, Zhou Feng would be able to obtain more mystical inheritances.


    Kui Xiang was going all out to survive.


    However, there was one thing that he had lied about. There was nothing more valuable than this jade token. After all, it was not so easy to obtain the inheritance of an extraordinary sect.


    However, it was most important to stabilize Zhou Feng


    ¡®Appraising Eye!¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately used the passive Appraising Eye to check the jade token.


    (Jade Token of Inheritance: An inheritance left behind by a mighty figure of the Mystical Sect. It contains a divination technique known as Hexadirectional Calculation.]


    It was the real thing!


    Zhou Feng verified that the jade token in front of him was the real thing through the passive Appraising Eye. As such, he grabbed the jade token without hesitation.


    Seeing this, Kui Xiang finally let out a sigh of relief. His little life was finally saved.


    However¡­


    Kui Xiang¡¯s pupils constricted, and his face stiffened in the next second!


    A flying sword pierced through Kui Xiang¡¯s chest.


    Kui Xiang¡¯s mouth moved. He wanted to say something, but he couldn¡¯t. He could only stare at Zhou Feng. Zhou Feng didn¡¯t take the initiative to block Jiang Yi¡¯s flying sword this time, so it pierced Kui Xiang¡¯s chest.


    Even Jiang Yi was a little surprised. After all, Kui Xiang¡¯s series of actions just now was really tempting


    If Jiang Yi were in his shoes, he might have been persuaded by Kui Xiang.


    The temptation of the inheritance of the Mystical Sect was not small.


    Seeking good fortune to avoid misfortune, looking for dragons to see mountains, predicting the future, and so on. For cultivators, all of these could make their path of cultivation smoother.


    Especially for vagabond cultivators, the legacy of the Mystical Sect was more advantageous.


    ¡®One should not be too greedy,¡¯ Zhou Feng muttered in his heart.


    In fact, his reasoning was very simple. Kui Xiang must not be such a kind-hearted person.


    He had never met Kui Xiang before, and they were enemies. Why would Kui Xiang be so kind? These unpredictable turns of events had just forced the current situation.


    What if he was putting on an act with Jiang Yi so that he could stab him in the back later? What should he do?


    He had the skill panel. Sooner or later, thousands of passive skills would be added to his skillset. He did not need any inheritance at all.


    Now that he had the Hexadirectional Calculation, it could be considered an unexpected gain.


    The reason he had helped Kui Xiang block the flying sword earlier was also a spur of the moment.


    Most of it was to test Jiang Yi, to understand what he was thinking.


    Now that he had already tested Jiang Y, Kui Xiang could naturally go and die.


    As for the Hexadirectional Calculation, it could also be considered to be a side dish.


    ¡°Why! Why! Why!?¡± As Kui Xiang was dying, he kept muttering in his heart. He really did not understand what was in Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    Wasn¡¯t this clearly a great opportunity?


    Why did Zhou Feng not care at all?


    Zhou Feng could even use this opportunity to threaten him. It was not impossible to bargain with him.


    In any case, his little life was already in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands. Why didn¡¯t he take this opportunity to extract more benefits?


    Was he brain-dead or something?


    Kui Xiang¡¯s face betrayed his thoughts before he died.


    ¡°You¡­ must die today!¡±


    Jiang Yi glanced at Kui Xiang, who had lost his breath. His expression returned to calmness, and his tone also returned to indifference.


    The flying sword let out a long cry!


    Jiang Yi¡¯s Sword Control had reached perfection. The flying sword was like a swimming dragon, piercing through Zhou Feng¡¯s body from all angles.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi soared into the sky like smoke, and the Great Void Primordial Qi wrapped around his body.


    Ding!


    The flying sword and Zhou Feng¡¯s body actually let out a series of clanging sounds.


    It was like a hammer continuously striking a big bell.


    Jiang Yi¡¯s flying sword couldn¡¯t pierce through Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    It was a miracle!


    No matter how powerful the body was, it couldn¡¯t be as powerful as a flying sword!


    However, Jiang Yi wasn¡¯t anxious at all when he saw this. He was still hanging high in the air.


    He kept controlling the flying sword with his divine sense.


    However, the sword avatar behind his back was getting more and more solid. Jiang Yi¡¯s aura was also gradually increasing.


    This is troublesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng appeared calm on the surface, but he was a little anxious in his heart. He could already feel that there was a sense of restraint around him.


    It was as if he had fallen into a swamp.


    Obviously, this was due to the formation around him, and he was the only one who was restricted.


    Jiang Yi did not seem to be affected at all.


    Jiang Yi wanted to grind him to death in this formation slowly.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect Jiang Yi to be so cautious.


    Even though he had a huge advantage in strength, he didn¡¯t directly crush Jiang Yi. Instead, he chose to fight steadily.


    Wasn¡¯t this person a sword cultivator? Why would a sword cultivator be careful!?

 Chapter 398 - Dao Seal

    Chapter 398 Dao Seal


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t met many sword cultivators before, but he still understood some of the sword cultivators¡¯ modus operandi.


    Most sword cultivators would choose to kill their enemies with one sword strike in many situations.


    They would almost never use other methods.


    This was because it was the most efficient and easiest.


    But Jiang Yi didn¡¯t do so. Instead, it was as if he was slowly fishing.


    He did not use his full strength to control the flying sword. This feeling was as if he was forcing Zhou Feng bit by bit. He was asking him to hand over all his trump cards and display his full strength.


    The best word that could better describe this was prudence.


    The current Jiang Yi gave him the feeling that he was overly cautious.


    ¡°Opportunities also mean danger! Remember! Remember!


    At this moment, Jiang Yi¡¯s mind was recalling the prophecy that the Great Elder had given him back then.


    That was, when opportunities appeared, it also meant that risks would come along with them.


    Now, Jiang Yi had already confirmed that Zhou Feng had a big secret.


    This big secret could allow a vagabond cultivator to break through to the Divine Ability realm quickly, and at the same time, his battle prowess was outstanding.


    Zhou Feng was not inferior to some veteran Divine Ability experts. Such a situation was really strange. To be able to do this, Jiang Yi suspected that there was a Dao Seal in his body.


    Only a Dao Seal could allow Zhou Feng to improve so quickly.


    This could also explain why he could quickly grasp the use of divine abilities after reaching the Divine Ability realm.


    What was a Dao Seal?


    This was actually the foundation of a sect¡¯s inheritance.


    As mentioned earlier, inheritance was an extremely important matter to all large factions.


    And the inheritance of a large clan depended on the bloodline. Then, what did a sect rely on for its inheritance?


    There was not only one clan in the sects but also countless talented monsters.


    Some of these monsters came from humble backgrounds, while others came from noble backgrounds.


    So what did these sects rely on to maintain their competitiveness and inheritance?


    The Dao Seal method was created in this context.


    To condense a Dao Seal, one had to reach an extremely high realm at least, and they could only condense it before death.


    The Dao Seal contained all the secrets of the sect and all sorts of divine abilities.


    It even contained battle experience and a trace of power.


    Simply put, this Dao Seal was an unusual bloodline that contained all the things of the previous Sect Leader.


    Including cultivation, the successor only needed to slowly absorb all the things within the Dao Seal to be able to obtain the cultivation of the previous Sect Leader.


    The power contained in this Dao Seal was also terrifying after being passed down from generation to generation.


    This was an inheritance method that was not inferior to bloodline inheritance at all.


    However, the Dao Seal inheritance still had some drawbacks compared to bloodline inheritance.


    That was, the Dao Seal inheritance required a certain realm. The successor had to comprehend a divine ability and completely transform their soul.


    Only then could they withstand the full power of the Dao Seal. Otherwise, it would be very easy not to be able to withstand the power of the Dao Seal and become delirious.


    Of course, in times of crisis, they could also abandon most of the power within the Dao Seal and only keep the core inheritance.


    This way, they could allow lower realm cultivators to inherit it.


    They could even turn the Dao Seal into a Dao Seed and plant it on mortals. Mortals could also completely withstand it.


    As their realm slowly rose, this Dao Seed would be able to grow back into a Dao Seal.


    However, if that were the case, one would only be able to harness 10% of the inheritance¡¯s power.


    Moreover, unless they cultivated to a certain realm again, this Dao Seal would not be able to be passed down.


    That¡¯s right!


    Jiang Y suspected Zhou Feng had a Dao Seed planted on him.


    If Zhou Feng had a Dao Seed, then his shocking performance was not worth mentioning


    It wouldn¡¯t be strange for him to break through to the Dragon Transformation Realm within a year with the Dao Seed¡¯s help.


    There was also Zhou Feng¡¯s strange recovery ability, and he even had a soul attack.


    All of these clues pointed to Zhou Feng having a Dao Seed. Otherwise, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have been able to do all these things.


    ¡®Dao Seed¡­ If my guess is true¡­¡¯


    The more Jiang Yi thought about it, the calmer his state of mind became and the less anxious he became.


    If he obtained Zhou Feng¡¯s Dao Seed, becoming the future Holy Lord Sect wouldn¡¯t be a problem at all.


    After all, a Dao Seed was something that even the Jade Sword Holy Lord didn¡¯t have the qualifications to condense.


    ¡®First Elder! You only calculated that my opportunity was here, but you musthave never thought that I would meet a person who seems to have a Dao Seed!¡¯


    Jiang Yi once again tested Zhou Feng¡¯s strength. The purple Sword Qi split into two, combining with the sealing power of the surrounding formation.


    This time, the attack was twice as strong as before.


    The endless sealing power, as well as the unstoppable Sword Qi, made Zhou Feng somewhat breathless.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng decided that he couldn¡¯t just sit and wait for death.


    After fighting for so long, his passive skills had been stacked.


    That¡¯s right! He hadn¡¯t taken the initiative to attack previously for the sake of safety and stacking up all sorts of passive skills, such as Fighting Spirit and Adaptive Shell.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength increased exponentially with all the stacked passive skills.


    The golden fist instantly tore apart the endless Sword Qi and the formation set up by the formation disk.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi could corrode the void, so even the formation could not escape its corrosion effect.


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body also boiled to the extreme. The Blood Qi and the Great Void Primordial Qi complemented each other.


    The Invincible avatar appeared again!


    An avatar that was 90% similar to Zhou Feng appeared and collided with Jiang Yi¡¯s sword avatar.


    It was like two volcanoes erupting at the same time. One side was golden, while the other was purple.


    The terrifying energy storm poured out in all directions uncontrollably while the ground quaked, becoming a complete mess.


    ¡®He¡¯s indeed extraordinary!¡¯


    Jiang Yi was not surprised to see Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy counterattack. After all, Zhou Feng had a Dao Seed.


    Jiang Yi had always been in the eye of the formation. He did not run around. Instead, he relied on his divine sense to control the flying sword and the formation disk.


    He suppressed Zhou Feng fiercely, not giving him any chance to leave.


    As long as Zhou Feng was in this formation, he would not be able to escape from his grasp no matter how hard he struggled.


    This was because the surrounding power of heaven and earth had long been locked down.


    Zhou Feng could not borrow the power of heaven and earth. He was completely trapped.


    Therefore, Jiang Yi was not in a hurry. What if Zhou Feng did not care and directly exploded with the power of the Dao Seed? This would be a troublesome matter.


    ¡°Break!¡±


    The Great Void Primordial Qi surrounded Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and the golden Blood Qi emitted a golden light.


    It made him look like a Godking that could battle in the void.


    He punched fiercely at Jiang Yi again.


    Jiang Yi did not even bat an eyelid as a huge bell floated above his head.


    Then, a thick and heavy feeling spread out. It was another dao artifact that contained a large amount of earth-type laws.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng was unable to break this bell.


    This¡­¡¯


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had encountered such a situation. He could not escape, nor could he break this turtle shell.


    There was also the gradually increasing suppressive force around him.


    It was trying to compress him alive!


    At that moment, the equipment gap was reflected vividly.

 Chapter 399 - Cursing in His Heart

    Chapter 399 Cursing in His Heart


    What was the equipment gap? This was the equipment gap.


    For the first time, Zhou Feng felt the huge disadvantage of the equipment gap.


    On Jiang Yi¡¯s side, whether it was the formation disk, the flying sword, or the huge bell above his head, they were all dao artifacts.


    The standard of a spiritual artifact was that it had a spirit! As long as it had a spirit, it could be called a spiritual artifact.


    Therefore, the difference in power between different spiritual artifacts was also very large.


    And a dao artifact contained a complete set of laws during the refining process.


    An Artifact Refiner would engrave a complete set of laws during the refining and shaping stage.


    This required an Artifact Refiner¡¯s understanding of the laws of the Great Dao. Those who could do this were at least in the Divine Ability realm.


    And those who could refine a dao artifact were at least in the Dragon Transformation realm.


    After all, only Dragon Transformation experts had the physical quality to refine dao artifacts.


    Therefore, dao artifacts were considered very rare for Divine Ability cultivators.


    They were usually made up of top-grade spiritual artifacts.


    However, Jiang Yi had displayed three dao artifacts in one go. He was simply inhumane. This was a one-sided battle against ordinary Divine Ability cultivators.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had all sorts of passive skills, so he was able to hold on.


    ¡®How troublesome¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the big bell above Jiang Yi¡¯s head.


    He could only give up on attacking and switch to defense.


    He made up his mind and engaged in a battle of attrition.


    Jiang Yi used this formation disk to seal the surrounding power of heaven and earth. This would inevitably consume a large amount of divine power and divine sense.


    Changing heaven and earth with human power would consume a significant amount over the generations.


    Not to mention that Jiang Yi was also using two other dao artifacts at the same time.


    This consumption was even greater. Zhou Feng did not believe that Jiang Yi¡¯s power


    If he liked to consume, he would accompany Jiang Yi to consume.


    Although he could not borrow the power of heaven and earth, Zhou Feng had a lot of food in his storage ring.


    As such, he took out all kinds of things from his storage ring and stuffed them into his mouth.


    Then, he relied on his Level-2 Gluttony and digested them crazily.


    In this way, he fought and digested them at the same time. There was no delay between the two.


    One had to know that he had two major passive abilities, the Blood Qi Recovery and the Consumption Reduction. In this long-term battle, Zhou Feng did not waste anything. Seeing Zhou Feng eat and fight, Jiang Yi gradually frowned.


    Because after the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Zhou Feng did not seem to be tired at all.


    The surrounding suppressive force had reached its limit.


    However, Zhou Feng acted as if nothing had happened.


    Jiang Yi also tried to increase his strength, continuously stabbing Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body with his flying sword.


    However, all of this was useless.


    When the passive Adaptive Shell¡¯s stacks were maximized (5 layers), it directly reduced the damage of the same type by 25%.


    There were also all sorts of passive skills that increased defense.


    Thus, Zhou Feng was not injured at all. On the contrary, he looked extremely relaxed.


    ¡®How can this be!?!


    Jiang Yi gradually felt that something was not right.


    He originally thought that he would only need around the time it took an incense stick to burn to force Zhou Feng into a corner.


    Zhou Feng could not replenish his Spiritual Qi in this formation, so it was useless no matter how strong Zhou Feng¡¯s capital was.


    Moreover, Jiang Yi was not a pushover. He was trying his best to put pressure on Zhou Feng.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s defensive ability was unexpectedly strong.


    Even if there were occasional injuries, they would recover quickly.


    If this dragged on, it would not be a good thing for Jiang Yi. He had just killed all the other people here, so the forces behind these people would definitely have a reaction.


    What was worse was Kui Xiang¡¯s Master.


    He was a mighty Dragon Transformation expert, and he was also from the Jade Sword Holy Land. Hence, he would not give Jiang Yi any face.


    ¡®The news of the Dao Seed must not be leaked!¡¯


    Jiang Yi¡¯s eyes suddenly changed and became cold.


    Once again, a terrifying torrent of divine power was emitted between Jiang Yi¡¯s brows.


    The flying sword that had been hovering in the air was completely unsealed and returned to Jiang Yi¡¯s hand.


    One strike!


    This was the simplest slash!


    There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of extravagance, nor was there any dazzling brilliance.


    However, it was just this one strike that produced an endless amount of Sword Qi. The formless Sword Qi penetrated through every orifice and silk threads.


    He used every method possible to slash Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Jiang Yi held the big bell above his head and the flying sword in his hand as he left the position of the eye of the formation.


    The big bell above his head slowly released an undulating wave. Wherever this wave passed, one could feel incomparably heavy pressure.


    It was unknown when Jiang Yi arrived in front of Zhou Feng and stabbed him swiftly and with no fanfare.


    Zhou Feng moved with the Starseizer Steps and forcefully dodged this sword.


    However, he could feel an even more terrifying pressure being exerted on his body.


    It made it challenging for him to move.


    Jiang Yi was not moved at all. Instead, he continued to stab.


    This time, Zhou Feng felt that he could not dodge no matter what. This was an extremely strange feeling


    Moreover, he did not know when the aura on Jiang Yi¡¯s body had changed.


    It wasn¡¯t as sharp as before. It was like returning to the basics.


    Every movement and sword move didn¡¯t have the slightest bit of smoke and fire.


    It clearly looked like the clumsiest child wielding a sword, but it was so strange.


    Sword Control!


    One person wasn¡¯t just using their divine sense to control a sword, but they were also using their body to control a sword!


    Sword Control was built around the word ¡®sword¡¯.


    Sword Control would display the same power no matter who cultivated it. It was not weak or strong Sword Control. The crux of the matter was the person who cultivated it. In the hands of different people, the same divine ability had a world of difference in power.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was stabbed, leaving a huge wound.


    However, this wound did not spurt out a large amount of blood.


    Not even a drop of blood flowed out, actually. In the end, the wound slowly healed, leaving only a tiny scar.


    Perhaps not long after, even the scar would be gone.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s ability to recover was undoubtedly displayed here.


    The two of them did not speak. There was only an intense battle on the scene.


    Suddenly Jiang Yi changed his attack style, becoming open and unrestrained.


    A huge sword ray suddenly burst out, and countless huge holes appeared on the ground.


    One could clearly see that the holes were all connected to the rock layer. From this, one could tell how powerful this sword ray was.


    The purple heaven-reaching sword light was connected to heaven and earth. It looked terrifying.


    However, Zhou Feng was still the same. He used the Starseizer Steps and the protection of the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    Jiang Yi could only hurt him, but he could not defeat him.


    Numerous huge rays of Sword Qi stabbed Zhou Feng. If it were before, he would definitely have chosen to dodge.


    But this time, his body erupted with a terrifying golden light.


    Countless rays of Sword Qi were shattered with a stir of the Great Void Primordial Qi and then scattered with a palm strike.


    The counterattack had begun!


    After defending for so long, Zhou Feng suddenly started to counterattack.


    Because of the passive Blood Qi Recovery and Consumption Reduction, he still had some strength left.


    ¡®Soul Punch!¡¯


    This was his strongest attack.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi was like a huge wave, charging straight at Jiang Yi.


    ¡®Monster!


    Facing such a crazy counterattack all of a sudden, Jiang Yi finally couldn¡¯t help but exclaim in his heart.


    What kind of monster was this in front of him!?


    After fighting for so long, not only did Zhou Feng still have some energy left, but Jiang Yi couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng when he unleashed his full strength.


    It was f*cking weird!


    Previously, Jiang Yi had always looked extremely calm and had the demeanor of an expert. However, he was now cursing in his heart.


    The person in front of him was a monster. Could it really be because of his Dao Seed!?

 Chapter 400 - Dividing the Divine Sense

    Chapter 400 Dividing the Divine Sense


    After Zhou Feng advanced to the Divine Ability realm, the power of his soul transformed into divine sense.


    In addition to reducing the consumption of this passive skill, the side effects of the Soul Punch had been greatly reduced.


    At least he was not as weak as before when one punch would render him unable to fight.


    Now, he could at least use this attack more than ten times. He could also guarantee that he would not fall unconscious.


    It had to be said that after advancing to the Divine Ability realm, he would comprehend a new law, possessing the power of the divine ability to baptize his soul and body.


    The Divine Ability Soul Punch was much stronger than the Purple Mansion Soul Punch.


    As Zhou Feng comprehended more and more laws, the influence of the power of the divine ability would become more and more powerful.


    At that time, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body would undergo a transformation.


    ¡°Hmph! Soul attacks are useless against me!¡±


    Jiang Yi snorted coldly, and the large bell above his head enveloped his soul in an instant.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know the origin of this large bell, but it was actually able to block soul attacks.


    Also, Zhou Feng had revealed too many moves previously, and Jiang Yi had noted everything down.


    It could be said that Zhou Feng was an open book in Jiang Yi¡¯s eyes. On the other hand, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know much about Jiang Yi.


    He only knew that Jiang Yi¡¯s status seemed to be very high, and his strength was top-notch.


    Other than that, Zhou Feng was most worried about Jiang Yi¡¯s innate divine ability. An innate divine ability was something that would be unlocked in the Purple Mansion realm.


    As a cultivator¡¯s realm increased, this innate divine ability would gradually become more powerful.


    Developing the innate divine ability was also a very important thing in the Divine Ability realm. It was just that it was tough to develop this innate divine ability, especially if it was a weak one.


    Therefore, many cultivators would not be able to develop their innate divine abilities.


    Just like Zhou Feng¡¯s innate divine ability, which was longevity.


    He didn¡¯t need to do anything, and his lifespan was longer than others.


    Ever since Zhou Feng found out about his innate divine ability, he had never taken the initiative to develop it.


    Firstly, he didn¡¯t know how to develop it.


    Secondly, developing it didn¡¯t give him any boost to his strength.


    He was still very young, so he didn¡¯t need to worry about his lifespan at all.


    Many cultivators were like Zhou Feng, spending most of their time on breaking through.


    As for developing their innate abilities, they had no interest in it. At the very least, they would wait until it was difficult for them to improve before starting to study it.


    However, for a proud son of heaven like Jiang Yi, developing his innate divine ability was inevitable.


    It was much easier to use an innate divine ability than the divine abilities he comprehended.


    Zhou Feng had been feeling a sense of crisis from the very beginning.


    If his guess wasn¡¯t wrong, this was definitely Jiang Yi¡¯s innate divine ability that had been pressuring him.


    He had to be careful.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s face remained calm. After blocking Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Punch, he changed his attack style again.


    The flying sword in his hand was controlled by the divine sense again and stabbed at Zhou Feng from a strange angle.


    However, just like before, Zhou Feng blocked the flying sword.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi was too easy to use. It gathered and dispersed as Zhou Feng wished.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi could be used immediately as long as he manipulated it with his divine sense. It was practically invincible when used for defense.


    Although the flying sword looked simple, its power was not weak at all.


    Just the sharp aura on the flying sword was enough to tear apart the physical bodies of many Divine Ability cultivators.


    Still, it seemed to have become so weak and powerless before Zhou Feng.


    ¡®He really is a monster!¡¯ Jiang Yi cursed in his heart again. He even began to doubt whether the Dao Seed had such a huge amount of power for Zhou Feng to consume.


    Normally, almost all the power of the Dao Seed was used as an inheritance. Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t squander so much power.


    ¡®Could it be two Dao Seeds?


    ¡°No! Could it be not a Dao Seed but something else?¡¯


    Jiang Yi was already starting to doubt whether Zhou Feng had a Dao Seed.


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s energetic appearance, Jiang Yi was also frustrated.


    Why was Zhou Feng not tired at all? And what was that divine ability?


    The Great Void Primordial Art had not surfaced for many eras, so Jiang Yi did not recognize what divine ability Zhou Feng cultivated.


    If he knew what kind of divine ability Zhou Feng was cultivating, he might be able to think of a way to break it.


    ¡®I can¡¯t drag this out!¡¯


    If this battle dragged on, it was still uncertain who would win.


    Therefore, he had to end the battle quickly.


    Jiang Yi suddenly closed his eyes, and his divine sense, which was like a torrent, split into three.


    Then, the three divine senses controlled the flying sword, the formation disk, and the big bell.


    Jiang Yi had been controlling these three dao artifacts at the same time. Although they were powerful, they still couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng.


    But now, it was as if Jiang Yi had turned into three people.


    The flying sword became more intelligent, and the formation disk was not as rigid as before. It began to mobilize the power of the formation continuously.


    For a moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s pressure doubled.


    This feeling was as if he was being beaten up by three Jiang Yis at the same time.


    Even if Zhou Feng¡¯s ability to protect his life was excellent, he could not hold on for much longer.


    ¡®What is this situation!? One strand of divine sense turning into three?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was shocked because Jiang Yi¡¯s appearance was extremely similar to turning into Taoist Trinity.


    That¡¯s right!


    Jiang Yi saw that it was almost impossible to grind Zhou Feng to death, so he took out his trump card and used his innate ability.


    Divine Telekinesis!


    Jiang Yi¡¯s innate divine ability was to split his divine sense into three parts and then attack the enemy simultaneously.


    This was a bit like having two more helpers, but it was still far from being comparable to having two more actual helpers.


    This Divine Telekinesis could only control dao artifacts and not directly split into three clones with the same strength as himself.


    But even so, from a certain point of view, Jiang Yi¡¯s strength had increased by three times.


    The most exaggerated thing was that as long as the divine sense was not split for very long, there would be almost no side effects. The consumption was not big either.


    This innate divine ability could be considered top-tier.


    Zhou Feng could not easily withstand the flying sword in front of him like before, nor could he ignore the power of the formation.


    For a time, he could only run for his life.


    ¡®No! I can¡¯t beat him!¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly realized that he was not Jiang Yi¡¯s match. After all, he had only entered the Divine Ability realm for a short period.


    On the other hand, Jiang Yi was a perfect-stage Divine Ability cultivator and was about to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    He had a lot of divine abilities that he had not used yet. If this continued, it would be a waste of time.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the intention to continue fighting.


    ¡°Then, I¡¯ll take my leave first.¡±


    Suddenly, two drumbeats sounded from Zhou Feng¡¯s body. It was the sound of his two hearts crazily squeezing his blood.


    The thunderous sounds made Jiang Yi highly alert.


    Dong! Dong! Dong!


    Zhou Feng attacked the big bell above Jiang Yi¡¯s head three times in a row.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s expression changed, revealing a hint of disbelief.

 Chapter 401 - Running Away

    Chapter 401 Running Away


    Jiang Yi had an incredulous look on his face because his Chaotic Heaven Bell had been affected by Zhou Feng¡¯s attacks.


    Although the Chaotic Heaven Bell did not look damaged on the surface, it had dimmed quite a bit.


    There was still a trace of a shattering intent attached to it.


    The Chaotic Heaven Bell might have cracked if Zhou Feng had attacked two more times.


    This was impossible!


    This Chaotic Heaven Bell was not a spiritual artifact but a dao artifact.


    It was so sturdy a physical body could not possibly damage it.


    That¡¯s right!


    Seeing that he could not hold on any longer, Zhou Feng immediately used the passive Celestial Forefinger.


    He used the trace of shattering intent to break through the Chaotic Heaven Bell¡¯s defense.


    However, this Chaotic Heaven Bell was so strong he hardly managed to damage it.


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Zhou Feng bade Jiang Yi farewell after forcing him to retract the bell.


    Then, he forcefully used his physical body to break through the formation.


    Starseizer Steps!


    Zhou Feng instantly crashed into the formation around him. Then, he turned into a few afterimages and charged out while withstanding the terrifying suppressive force.


    Jiang Yi¡¯s eyes almost fell out upon seeing this.


    Someone actually forcefully broke through the sealing formation? And directly ran out!?


    No one would believe this at all!


    The formation disk in Jiang Yi¡¯s hand was a dao artifact. There wasn¡¯t only one formation in it, but a small heaven-sealing formation with the other formations as auxiliary components.


    Once it was activated, there were only two methods to break through it-one had to be a high-class Formation Master or a Dragon Transformation expert that used force.


    After all, this sealing formation could be said to be a land of no return. Even the Hexadirectional Calculation was suppressed to a formidable degree.


    But Zhou Feng just walked out like this?


    This was simply bizarre!


    What kind of monster was this in front of him? He had almost broken his Chaotic Heaven Bell and then relied on his physical body to walk out of the sealing formation.


    ¡°I can¡¯t let him escape!¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s expression turned ugly.


    This person had too many secrets on him. He absolutely couldn¡¯t let him escape from his grasp.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng was running at breakneck speed..


    ¡°The Starseizer Steps are indeed formidable! The formation doesn¡¯t affect them!¡¯


    After escaping from the sealing formation, Zhou Feng immediately met up with Big Yellow.


    At the same time, he couldn¡¯t help but sigh in his heart. These Starseizer Steps were indeed formidable.


    It turned out that after cultivating these incomplete Starseizer Steps to perfection, they could ignore the effects of the formation.


    Relying on the stars in the sky as a guide, one could instantly cross countless obstacles.


    The Starseizer Sect had relied on this unique skill to escape under countless encirclements and interceptions back then.


    Even the original Starseizer Steps, when cultivated to the deepest point, could ignore all the formations in the world and all kinds of magical treasures¡¯ restraining effects.


    It was precisely because of this that the Starseizer Sect had such a great reputation.


    Unfortunately, the Starseizer Sect had been too arrogant, so the other forces had schemed against it and almost cut off its inheritance.


    Zhou Feng had already made up his mind at this time that if he were to go to the Central Plains in the future, he would look for the inheritance left behind by the Starseizer Sect.


    After all, the Starseizer Steps were really useful.


    ¡°However, the most important thing now is to get rid of this troublesome fellow behind


    me!¡±


    Almost all of the injuries on Zhou Feng¡¯s body had already recovered.


    These injuries were all caused by Zhou Feng forcefully breaking through the sealing formation. Although the Starseizer Steps could ignore the power of the sealing formation, it was still an incomplete version.


    While forcefully escaping from the sealing formation, he would also have to bear the terrifying suppressive force. Fortunately, his physical body was strong enough to withstand it.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng used the passive Bloodline Simulation again and changed his aura.


    The person who could use divination techniques was already dead.


    S was


    As long as Zhou Feng changed his aura, Jiang Yi would not be able to catch up to him.


    Obviously, Jiang Yi also understood this point, and a trace of anxiety appeared on his face.


    He wanted to hold onto Zhou Feng and not let go tightly.


    ¡°Mountainquake!¡±


    Jiang Yi didn¡¯t hide anything and used the Mountainquake ability!


    Mountainquake was a part of the top-tier divine ability, Splitting the Mountain and Shaking the Earth ability.


    When Mountainquake and Earthshaking combined together, they would form one of the 36 Great Divine Abilities, Splitting the Mountain and Shaking the Earth.


    For a moment, the surrounding mountains seemed to come to life.


    It was as if the mountains had flipped over, and the terrifying mountain power erupted at the same time.


    It suppressed all living creatures within a few hundred miles.


    Obviously, Jiang Yi could no longer sense Zhou Feng¡¯s aura, so he attacked with no restraint.


    In any case, as long as one could withstand Mountainquake, it was likely to be Zhou Feng.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, the mountain suddenly collapsed!


    The terrifying power of heaven and earth was like a waterfall descending from the nine heavens, intending to submerge his small body completely.


    It was too exaggerated! This kind of divine ability was simply too exaggerated!


    This was why Jiang Yi only used Sword Control previously¡ªthis move was too high-profile, and it was too easy to attract the attention of others.


    Jiang Yi wanted to monopolize Zhou Feng¡¯s secret, so he had to kill him quietly.


    But now that the duck in his hand was about to fly away, Jiang Yi couldn¡¯t care too much.


    The sound of the landslide spread for hundreds of miles and alarmed the old monsters in Linxian City.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Is this Mountainquake?¡±


    ¡°Someone is using Mountainquake? Are they trying to turn the Earth Dragon mountain range upside down?¡±


    ¡°Disciples of the holy land?¡±


    Such a big commotion made the clan leaders of the various clans unable to sit still.


    They naturally recognized the Mountainquake.


    However, what they cared about more was what had happened that allowed the core disciples of the holy land to use it.


    Were they chasing someone?


    Thinking of this, these people broke out of seclusion one after another, wanting to rush to the scene of the incident to see what was going on.


    On the other side, Zhou Feng was instantly submerged by the surging mountain power.


    However, in less than a second, he charged out directly.


    It seemed that he did not suffer any injuries. He had just used the Great Void Primordial Qi to engulf him.


    With his powerful physical body, he did not care about the landslide at all.


    After he rushed out, he changed his aura again, and starlight appeared under his feet.


    In just a few seconds, he disappeared into the horizon.


    ¡°Ah! Zhou Feng!¡±


    Jiang Yi was feeling depressed and could only raise his head and roar.


    Zhou Feng was like a rock in a latrine pit. He was smelly and hard. No method seemed to have any effect on him.


    Jiang Yi¡¯s flying sword, which was always successful, could only leave a trace of scars on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Moreover, these scars had healed in the blink of an eye.


    Jiang Yi had never seen a person who could resist so well. After fighting for so long, he didn¡¯t even look tired.


    Furthermore, the speed of his escape was also exaggerated, and there was starlight under his feet.


    ¡°Could it be the Starseizer Steps? Is he carrying the Starseizer Sect¡¯s inheritance!?¡¯


    Jiang Yi, who had calmed down, recognized that Zhou Feng had used the Starseizer Steps.


    After all, the Starseizer Sect was still very famous.


    Jiang Yi had once learned about the Starseizer Sect from the holy land¡¯s secret scrolls.


    Because the Starseizer Sect¡¯s inheritance did not seem to have been cut off, all the sects in the world had been searching for its inheritance to this day.

 Chapter 402 - Burial Ceremonies

    Chapter 402 Burial Ceremonies


    ¡°That was close!¡±


    After Zhou Feng got rid of Jiang Yi, he finally let out a sigh of relief.


    Jiang Yi¡¯s strength was really terrifying! He felt that Jiang Yi still had some hidden trump cards that he hadn¡¯t used yet.


    If it wasn¡¯t for the special characteristic of the star picking steps, it would have been somewhat unexpected.


    This time, he was afraid that he wouldn¡¯t be able to escape from that heaven sealing great formation. In the future, he would have to be more careful with formations and whatnot.


    Zhou Feng once again realized his shortcomings. He did not have enough equipment and methods.


    The collection of equipment and divine abilities was already imminent.


    In fact, these problems had been troubling him, but there was no way to solve them.


    The main reason was that these things were monopolized. It was not easy to get them.


    ¡°I might as well not do it twice!¡±


    Zhou Feng thought about it and decided to directly rob them.


    In particular, these so-called Holy Lands definitely had a lot of good things.


    Or they could sneak into various secret realms and go to some strange places to explore.


    These methods had a very high probability of obtaining good things. Robbing Holy Lands! This idea was extremely crazy, but it was not impossible.


    was


    After all, although Holy Lands were powerful, their territory was also big. It was impossible for all of them to have dragon transformation realm mighty figures overseeing them.


    As long as there wasn¡¯t a dragonification realm expert guarding it, he wouldn¡¯t be worried at all.


    However, for the sake of insurance, the idea of robbing the holy land could be postponed for the time being.


    Next, he would go to some secret realms or strange places to explore.


    This world wasn¡¯t very safe. There were many places that were extremely dangerous, but at the same time, they also contained a large number of treasures.


    For example, the haunted land, the redwood forest, and the extremely cold abyss.


    Zhou Feng had seen these places on the bounty list.


    Back then, in the city Lord¡¯s mansion of Celestial Lake City, there were a few missions regarding these places.


    Zhou Feng had also taken the opportunity to learn about them.


    He discovered that although these places were dangerous, they also contained many treasures.


    For example, it was said that this haunted lands had existed since a long time ago. Even at that time, the three great holy lands had not been established.


    There were all kinds of malicious ghosts and resentful ghosts, and there was even a ghost king leading the Ghost Army. It was quite dangerous.


    Ordinary people could not even stay in there for a while.


    Even for cultivators, if they stayed in the ghostly realm for a long time, they would be corroded by the Ghostly Qi, and their blood and QI would gradually be lost.


    However, the ghostly realm produced a kind of ghostly jade. Although this kind of ghostly jade was infected by the Ghostly Qi all year round.


    At the same time, it could be used as medicine to refine soul stabilizing pills.


    This kind of material could not even be bought with spirit stones. If there was a large amount of ghost jade, one could even trade it with some alchemists.


    Or it could be a refiner. After all, Ghost Jade was also a very good refining material.


    If Zhou Feng had enough rare materials on him, he could even entrust some refiners to specially Forge Dao artifacts for him.


    That was what Zhou Feng was thinking now.


    ¡°There is also the direction of tomb robbing!¡±


    While riding rhubarb, he was thinking about how to improve himself.


    Besides the methods above, tomb robbing was also a choice.


    In this world, there were also all kinds of large tombs.


    Because in an era, the method of burial was very popular.


    This was a special cultivation method, mainly to gather fate.


    Legend had it that as long as the ancestor was buried in a location with excellent feng shui, it could gather fate for the entire clan.


    It could also freeze the deceased ancestor in the tomb.


    Turning into the ancestor spirit, when the clan was in danger, it could also summon the ancestor spirit to fight.


    Because of this reason, a large number of cultivation families built ancient tombs for their ancestors.


    The purpose was to gather fate and leave a trump card for the family.


    Even some small families did the same.


    The purpose was to allow their bloodline to continue to be passed down.


    However, not all families could continue to be passed down.


    Even those thousand-year-old families would decline due to various accidents and eventually disappear.


    These declining families also left behind a large number of ancient tombs.


    These ownerless ancient tombs became the targets of some people.


    There were even some itinerant cultivators who specialized in tomb raiding for cultivation resources.


    These tomb raiders not only targeted the ownerless ancient tombs, they also targeted some large families.


    It could be said to be extremely disgusting.


    Zhou Feng had also seen this information from the bounty list because at that time, a small clan was offering a reward for a tomb robber.


    That reward was quite generous.


    It was just a pity that Zhou Feng was in a hurry to earn spirit stones back then, so he chose some missions that took a shorter time to complete.


    ¡°They all seem to be pretty good! But let¡¯s leave the territory of the Jade Sword Holy Land First!¡±


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that these options seemed to be pretty good.


    With his defense and escape speed, the tomb raiding option was the best choice.


    Moreover, as long as he chose some ownerless ancient tombs, it would not attract much attention.


    Most importantly, there might be information about the emperor¡¯s scripture in these ancient tombs.


    Or perhaps it could be said that it was an item from the human emperor era.


    Zhou Feng also needed to consider the cultivation method.


    Of course, no matter what, the most important thing at the moment was to escape first.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? What Happened?¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t Know? Something Big has happened! You know Zhou Feng who killed the disciple of the sacred land, right?¡±


    ¡°I know him! Didn¡¯t we make a big fuss to capture this person before? What¡¯s Wrong?¡±


    ¡°Let me tell you! This person is really powerful¡­¡±


    Kui Xiang¡¯s death could not be hidden, even though Zhou Feng did not kill him personally.


    However, no one knew that Jiang Yi had placed all the blame on his head.


    Apart from Kui Xiang, the deaths of the others were also on his head.


    This matter was a great humiliation to the jade sword sacred land.


    There was actually someone who repeatedly challenged the dignity of the saint land.


    If this person wasn¡¯t killed, how would the world view the jade sword Saint Land.


    The resentful ghost elder from before had already made the jade sword saint land lose


    face.


    Now that there was an additional Zhou Feng, did they really think that the jade sword Saint Land was easy to bully!


    Hence, this time, the jade sword saint land directly took out a flying sword as a reward and placed a bounty on Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    If they could capture Zhou Feng alive, they could even obtain a spot to join the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Once this condition was announced, almost the entire Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s jurisdiction went crazy.


    Because this condition was too generous!


    Flying Swords were secondary, the main thing was to be able to become a disciple of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    One had to know that the Jade Sword Holy Land had always been extremely strict in selecting disciples.


    It could be said that they were the best of the best. Now, they were actually able to enter the Jade Sword Holy Land without any conditions.


    This was simply a great thing. As long as they could enter the Jade Sword Holy Land. Then, they could directly learn some of the divine abilities and techniques of the Jade Sword Holy Land. They could even enjoy some of the conveniences of the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    For example, they could buy some medicinal pills and some spirit tools. These were all things that only the disciples of the Jade Sword Holy Land were qualified to buy.


    In comparison, even a flying sword wasn¡¯t as tempting


    As a result, countless cultivators were looking for traces of Zhou Feng.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land also announced some of Zhou Feng¡¯s characteristics, and even rhubarb wasn¡¯t spared.


    That kind of crazy scene made Zhou Feng seem like the enemy of the whole world.

 Chapter 403 - Cold Wind Mountain Range

    Chapter 403 Cold Wind Mountain Range


    Many cultivators began to look for traces of Zhou Feng because of the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s generous rewards.


    Even some people who hid very deeply could not help it.


    They began to use all kinds of methods to continuously calculate Zhou Feng¡¯s location.


    The craziest one was probably Kui Xiang¡¯s Master. He kept using Hexadirectional Calculation to continuously calculate Zhou Feng¡¯s current location.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng ran very fast.


    In addition, he had the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth and a trace of the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny to protect him.


    Thus, it was even more difficult to find Zhou Feng.


    Of course, this did not mean that there was no way to forcefully locate Zhou Feng.


    It was about whether it was worth it or not. If one wanted to forcefully locate Zhou Feng, they would have to pay the price.


    Even those in the Dragon Transformation realm felt a great pain in their hearts. After all, Zhou Feng was still in the Divine Ability realm, and he had already begun to touch upon the laws of the Great Dao.


    It was not something that small fish or shrimp could calculate at will. Although mystical techniques were mystical, the price was also very high.


    Kui Xiang¡¯s Master still wanted to go one step further, but he eventually chose against this after some hesitation.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng got rid of many pursuers and finally left the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    Soon, he entered the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    ¡°Is this the Cold Wind mountain range? Sure enough, there are gusts of cold wind!¡±


    At present, Zhou Feng was dressed in black and had returned to his original appearance with Big Yellow next to him.


    The Cold Wind mountain range was the dividing line between the Jade Sword Holy Land and the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    This huge mountain range used to be home to countless sects, but it suddenly became an area assaulted by gusts of cold wind for some unknown reason.


    Ghost Qi, baleful aura, and resentment constantly rose from the ground.


    This caused the originally vibrant mountain range, which was filled with spiritual treasures, to become the Cold Wind mountain range.


    The center was also enveloped by a black fog that couldn¡¯t be dissolved.


    As for why this was the territory of the Jade Lake Holy Land, it was because the Jade Lake Holy Land had established a stronghold in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    It was also the only safe stronghold in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land had once wanted to establish a stronghold in this place, but they had failed every time.


    In the end, they could only give up on the Cold Wind mountain range.


    And to be able to attract the two holy lands to establish a foothold, the Cold Wind mountain range was naturally not simple.


    The Cold Wind mountain range had once housed a large number of sects, some of which were even more powerful than the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    In just one night, a huge change had occurred, and no one was able to escape that strange black fog.


    Therefore, there were numerous ruins and ancient tombs on the Cold Wind mountain range.


    It was the favorite place of some vagabond cultivators and tomb raiders.


    It was also the gathering place of some demonic cultivators.


    The three holy lands were doing their best to eliminate demonic cultivators, so these demonic cultivators did not dare to stay in their territories.


    They could only drill into the Cold Wind mountain range in the end.


    In addition to the Ghost Qi that permeated this place, all kinds of strange things kept emerging.


    Therefore, this place became the gathering place of numerous demonic and devil cultivators.


    Even the holy lands¡¯ disciples had to be extra cautious in this area.


    Demonic cultivators didn¡¯t care who you were. Once they killed someone, they would fall back into the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Even a Dragon Transformation expert couldn¡¯t do anything about it.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng took a fancy to this point. He had offended the Jade Sword Holy Land and was worried that a Dragon Transformation expert would be dispatched. Thus, he planned to hide in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Moreover, the Cold Wind mountain range was very suitable for building a secret cave abode.


    Zhou Feng wanted to build a new rebirth point.


    The rebirth point in the Demons¡¯ land was too far away.


    Wouldn¡¯t he have to be reborn in the Demons¡¯ land if he met an accident?


    At that time, he would have to go through a long journey to come here.


    Moreover, Big Yellow did not know that he could be reborn, so he would definitely be anxious. It would not be good if Big Yellow was anxious when any accident happened.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng planned to set up a new rebirth point.


    Even when he headed to the Eastern Lands and Central Plains in the future, he would set up a new rebirth point.


    At that time, he would be able to choose different places to be reborn and try his best to avoid accidents.


    Although the process of making the Nirvana Seeds was very painful, it was all worth it.


    After entering the Cold Wind mountain range, Zhou Feng found himself in an endless primitive forest. These trees looked very lush, but they gave people a gloomy feeling. The leaves were not a vibrant green color. Instead, they had a lifeless black-gray color. The field of vision was also very bad, and the places slightly further away were blocked by these strange-shaped trees.


    ¡°Big Yellow, be careful!¡±


    Zhou Feng wore a serious expression because he found that his divine sense was severely restricted in this place.


    His divine sense was compressed to about 10 meters nearby, and his sharp senses were also suppressed.


    This feeling was as if he had entered a natural formation.


    Therefore, he told Big Yellow to be more alert. Even though his divine sense was suppressed, Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell and hearing were not restricted.


    Big Yellow¡¯s advantage as a Mountain Spirit Hound was displayed in this kind of place.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow seemed to have realized that something was wrong, and he immediately let out a low cry. Then, he pricked up his ears.


    ¡°If I were to set up a secret cave abode here, I wouldn¡¯t be afraid of being discovered. However, how can I guarantee safety¡­¡±


    The further Zhou Feng went, the more his divine sense was being compressed.


    Moreover, the surroundings were completely silent. Not even the sound of insects, birds, or beasts could be heard. It could be said that it was deathly silent.


    It was a good choice to build a secret cave abode in such a place.


    However, he needed to pay attention to how to ensure the safety of the secret cave abode after he left.


    He did not want the secret cave abode to become a ghost nest after he left.


    Because Zhou Feng had chosen a random place to enter the mountain range, there was no path at all.


    Unlike those familiar paths that had been opened up, he had cut through thorns along the way, relying on his powerful physical body.


    He forcefully opened up a small path, directly cutting down trees and taking detours when he could not walk through. ¡°This feeling¡­¡±


    He did not know how long he had walked, but the strange trees in front of him seemed to have thinned out a little.


    However, Zhou Feng felt as if a stone had been pressed on his heart, causing him to feel uneasy.


    This mountain range was bizarre. He did not know what had happened to cause it to become like this.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    At that moment, Big Yellow issued a warning.


    Big Yellow¡¯s entire body tensed, and he looked as if he was baring his teeth.


    Zhou Feng could sense Big Yellow¡¯s emotions. It was a hint of fear.


    ¡°What is it?¡±


    Following the direction where Big Yellow was looking, Zhou Feng carefully observed for a while before he realized that a snake was lurking in front of him.


    It was a gray snake that had directly blended into the surrounding environment. There was not even a hint of aura leaking out.


    It didn¡¯t even have a heartbeat.


    If not for Big Yellow¡¯s warning, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t even have noticed the snake.

 Chapter 404 - New Passive? Bio AI?

    Chapter 404 New Passive? Bio AI?


    Because of Big Yellow¡¯s vigilant look, Zhou Feng took a few steps back.


    Then, the Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a thread.


    Bang!


    When the Great Void Primordial Qi came into contact with the snake in front of him, the snake exploded, and a gust of chilly wind blew over.


    Zhou Feng hurriedly used the Starseizer Steps and retreated frantically, finally avoiding the black fog.


    ¡°It¡¯s not alive!?¡±


    His expression became a little more serious because the snake was not a living lifeform.


    It was formed from a mass of Ghost Qi. Once one came into contact with it, it would explode.


    Once that mass of Ghost Qi touched him, even Zhou Feng felt that it would be somewhat troublesome.


    There seemed to be something bad in that mass of Ghost Qi.


    What exactly was this place? It was actually so dangerous?


    Then how did those demonic cultivators walk here?


    If it weren¡¯t for Big Yellow, under the situation where his divine sense was extremely compressed, it would be very easy to fall into the trap of this strange snake condensed from Ghost Qi!


    ¡°Troublesome! Oh right! I seem to have the so-called Hexadirectional Calculation!¡±


    Zhou Feng became even more vigilant due to this.


    Suddenly, he remembered that he seemed to have obtained Hexadirectional Calculation from Kui Xiang.


    This Hexadirectional Calculation seemed to have the ability to predict good luck and bad luck!


    ¡°Perfect! i¡¯ll wait for a few months for the passive Dao Seed to cool down. I¡¯d better master Hexadirectional Calculation first before coming in to explore!¡±


    Zhou Feng was very cautious when exploring the unknown.


    He was unfamiliar with the Cold Wind mountain range, and his divine sense was compressed to the extreme. This kind of feeling was uncomfortable.


    He might as well retreat. He would wait for a few months until the passive Dao Seed had cooled down.


    When that time came, the progress bar on the skill panel should be full.


    After mastering Hexadirectional Calculation and adding a new passive skill, it would be better to explore the Cold Wind mountain range again.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng immediately chose to return where he was.


    Although this made him seem a little timid, when it came to his small life, he was timid!


    If he lost his life, he would really lose it!


    Zhou Feng relied on Big Yellow¡¯s vigilance and quickly retreated out of the Cold Wind mountain range.


    What Zhou Feng did not know was that this decision allowed him to keep his little life.


    This was because the Cold Wind mountain range was not as quiet at night as it was during the day.


    Once night fell, all kinds of strange things would break out of the ground, and even some ghosts would wander in the mountain forest.


    At that time, even some demonic cultivators who lived in the Cold Wind mountain range did not dare to wander around casually.


    They could only hide in their formations and wait for the day to come.


    Humans would die when wandering around the Cold Wind mountain range at night.


    Almost all of those cultivators who did not believe in evil had died.


    Not even a Dragon Transformation expert could not avoid this kind of strange thing.


    Otherwise, the Jade Sword Holy Land wouldn¡¯t have chosen to withdraw from the fight for the Cold Wind mountain range.


    It was all because the Cold Wind mountain range was too evil.


    One had to know that although the Cold Wind mountain range was evil, the things it produced weren¡¯t bad.


    There were countless kinds of Yin-attributed medicinal herbs and minerals, as well as the remains and ancient tombs of some ancient sects.


    One could make a lot of money just by digging a bit.


    After three months¡­


    Zhou Feng had settled down beside the Cold Wind mountain range.


    During these three months, he had been continuously condensing the Great Void Primordial Qi. At the same time, he had also figured out some ways to use the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    The passive Dao Seed had also cooled down during this period. Dao Seed: Every time you learn a martial technique, dao arts, divine ability, and so on, you have a certain chance of comprehending it directly!


    Cooldown: 1 year


    Zhou Feng had obtained this passive skill back in the Tri-Gu Sect. It could be considered a heaven-defying passive skill.


    It could ignore one¡¯s aptitude and all kinds of conditions, allowing them to learn all kinds of cultivation methods and divine abilities.


    There were basically no flaws besides the cooldown time being a little long and the slight possibility of failure.


    Originally, Zhou Feng¡¯s idea was to use this passive skill to learn new divine abilities.


    But now, he used it on the Hexadirectional Calculation.


    Fortunately, although the Hexadirectional Calculation wasn¡¯t a divine ability, he didn¡¯t lose out. After all, this was a mystical technique.


    Mystical techniques were more difficult than divine abilities.


    This was because mystical techniques were usually parts of inheritances and wouldn¡¯t be taught to outsiders.


    As a vagabond cultivator, Zhou Feng was already very lucky to be able to cultivate a mystical technique.


    ¡°I hope I don¡¯t fail!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately took out the jade slip with Hexadirectional Calculation and triggered the passive Dao Seed.


    In an instant, he felt his comprehension increase hundreds of times. Hexadirectional Calculation had turned from profound and complicated to extremely simple.


    After a few breaths, Zhou Feng felt that he could use Hexadirectional Calculation.


    That¡¯s right! It was just that magical! It was just that simple and overbearing!


    It was a pity that learning was learning and mastery was mastery. There were no other opportunities in this art.


    It would take a long time for Zhou Feng to master it fully.


    But that was good enough. He was not that great.


    He closed his eyes and processed the information in his head.


    ¡°I see!¡±


    When Zhou Feng opened his eyes again, his temperament seemed to have changed.


    How to describe it? To describe it in two words¡ªflawless plan.


    It turned out that Hexadirectional Calculation was a big data calculation. First, it went from ¡°Time Occupation¡± to ¡°Moon General¡±. It was the Wuji that gave birth to Tai Chi.


    Next, it went from the ¡°Moon General¡± to the ¡°Stem-Branch¡±. It was the Tai Chi that gave birth to the two elements.


    After that, it was the two elements that gave birth to the four images. It was the three elements that gave birth to the five elements.


    It took into account factors such as the right time and location, the direction of the stars, the cycle of the four seasons, and so on.


    It used a three-dimensional form, a comprehensive and multifaceted way of thinking to make predictions.


    In the end, the result was that there were more than 10,000 basic extrapolations.


    Moreover, the more data there was, the more accurate the prediction would be, and the less data there was, the more inaccurate it would be.


    Hexadirectional Calculation was simply a mystical technique created specifically for freaks.


    Some slightly slow people, even if they had learned Hexadirectional Calculation, their calculations would still be very slow.


    There was even a possibility that their calculations might be wrong. Some freaks¡¯ calculations would only be astonishingly fast, but they would also be very accurate.


    ¡°What a troublesome skill! If only I could have a passive skill to increase my calculation ability!¡±


    Zhou Feng had a headache.


    Obviously, he was not such a freak, and the speed of his calculations when using Hexadirectional Calculation was not considered fast.


    However, he still had a chance to save himself. He could use the skill panel to draw a passive skill that could increase his calculation ability.


    After all, anything was possible-even a passive skill that could increase his charm.


    There should be a passive skill that could increase the capacity of his brain!


    When thinking of this, he didn¡¯t hesitate. During this period, the progress bar on the skill panel was already full.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng immediately chose to draw the new passive skill!


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    A golden light flashed before his eyes.


    ¡°F*ck! Golden! Another golden passive skill?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this golden light, his entire body trembled. This time, his luck was actually so good!


    Bio AI: Your brain has undergone a mutation, and a small portion of it has turned into a super biological AI.


    ¡°DAMN! Is my mouth so sharp? Just like that?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body went numb. He was just saying it, so he did not expect to really draw such a passive skill.

 Chapter 405 - Hack at Full Capacity! Hexagonal Warrior!

    Chapter 405 Hack at Full Capacity! Hexagonal Warrior!


    After Zhou Feng obtained the passive Bio AI, his brain seemed to be developing again, and intense pain began to spread.


    It was as if a small part of his brain had been cut off.


    Fortunately, this feeling disappeared quickly, and he soon returned to normal.


    Then, a super-powerful biological AI appeared.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    When Zhou Feng looked around again, all kinds of strings of data were constantly being digitized and presented in front of him.


    For example, Big Yellow¡¯s height, weight, humidity nearby, and air quality.


    Originally, it was difficult to observe these data strings with the naked eye, but it was as if he was cheating at this moment.


    No type of information could escape his eyes.


    This feeling was very strange, and Zhou Feng was trying to think of some problems.


    He realized that the AI could handle these problems.


    For example, arithmetic problems like ¡®1+1¡¯ were subconsciously handed over to the AI to handle, and the answers came out almost simultaneously.


    ¡°Two brains? How amazing!¡±


    Regarding this experience, he felt very strange.


    He could switch between the main brain and the AI brain without any hindrance when he was thinking


    After all, this AI brain was also split from his main brain.


    This was not what surprised him the most. What surprised him the most was that his soul power seemed to have increased by a lot.


    ¡°So powerful! This is a direct double effect?¡±


    Zhou Feng was almost scared. His soul seemed to have become way more powerful.


    The divine sense condensed from the soul power was also more powerful. He could even move objects with the divine sense.


    It was as if he had cultivated a visualization technique in such a situation.


    The most exaggerated aspect was that the AI seemed to be able to help him condense divine sense automatically.


    In the past, the cultivation of the soul was the most wasteful in terms of time and energy. This was because it was very difficult to control and train the divine sense.


    One had to be completely focused and not be distracted.


    But now, the AI had taken over these boring cultivation matters.


    Not only the cultivation of the soul, even controlling the condensation of Blood Qi and transforming it into divine power, and so on, could be taken over by the AI.


    Zhou Feng himself did not need to waste any


    energy.


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this f*cking automatic cultivation? And the potential of the AI doesn¡¯t seem to be so simple!¡±


    He began to test the new AI continuously. It seemed that because it had just split apart, the AI was still unable to adapt to its work.


    As Zhou Feng continued to increase the number of tasks, the AI also evolved.


    This evolution was a process of self-adaptation. At the same time, he sensed that the operation of the AI consumed soul power.


    In other words, the AI¡¯s power source was soul power. The bigger the calculation task, the more soul power would be consumed. ¡°If that¡¯s the case, I have to improve my soul if I want to increase the computational power!¡±


    Zhou Feng was thinking about how to use his AI.


    On the other side, he set up a few daily tasks and handed over the condensation of Blood Qi and divine power to the AI.


    Suddenly, the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to circulate at an exaggerated speed.


    The speed of circulation of this Blood Qi far exceeded his usual speed. Even his body, which was already unable to advance an inch, obtained a trace of tempering effect.


    This was because Zhou Feng usually relied on himself to control the Blood Qi and cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    And in terms of controlling Blood Qi and other forms of energy, the human brain could not be as precise as the AI.


    Therefore, after the AI took over his body, some parts that were difficult to be tempered were tempered to the point of perfection.


    The AI could even take over his body, collect data, and then make improvements. It would be improved until it was most suitable for Zhou Feng.


    ¡°However, taking over my body so casually is a little scary!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng suddenly felt that his body did not belong to him.


    If someone used some kind of method to confuse the AI, then he would only be waiting for death.


    He had to set up a permission system! Whatever the AI did, it needed the approval of the mainframe!


    Zhou Feng began to set up various rules for the AI.


    ¡°Oh right! I can change the AI into a game interface!¡±


    Thinking of this, he began to carry out all kinds of modifications with great enthusiasm.


    Among them were all kinds of tasks for the AI, such as deducing cultivation methods, creating cultivation methods, and improving divine abilities.


    These things were almost impossible for Zhou Feng based on his original aptitude.


    However, if he were to hand them over to the AI, he could directly carry out countless simulations and make the best choice. This would not be a problem.


    However, this required a large amount of data support, so collecting different cultivation techniques seemed to become a necessary task in the future.


    After all, although the AI was powerful, it could not create something out of nothing. Without a large amount of data support, it would not be able to carry out a large number of simulations.


    ¡°Also! If the AI can control the secretion of various hormones in the body, or even cell division, wouldn¡¯t I be able to attain immortality theoretically?¡±


    As he thought about it, Zhou Feng¡¯s train of thought suddenly changed.


    It was not impossible, but the AI could not achieve such fine control at the moment.


    It needed to grow constantly and a huge amount of computing power to support it.


    That¡¯s not right!


    Wasn¡¯t the AI born for Hexadirectional Calculation?


    Because the AI¡¯s function was so powerful, Zhou Feng almost forgot about Hexadirectional Calculation.


    If there were a method that was most suitable for the AI, it would be Hexadirectional Calculation.


    The Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s terrifying data processing was not even worth mentioning to the AI.


    ¡°AI, set the first task to deduce Hexadirectional Calculation!¡±


    The priority of the rest of the tasks was pushed back.


    Of course, with the current computing power of the AI, while deducing Hexadirectional Calculation, the other tasks could also be done simultaneously.


    The only difference was that the speed would be slightly slower.


    Zhou Feng had already set up more than ten tasks, such as the optimization of the two Human Emperor Scriptures, the improvement of the physical body, the optimization of the Grand Void Primordial Qi, the deduction of the Starseizer Steps, and so on.


    There were also pill refinement, artifact refinement, and feeding the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    All of these were handed over to the AI to optimize.


    If it were not for the AI, Zhou Feng would not have been able to do this kind of thing.


    Now that he had an AI, he would naturally be able to develop in all aspects. Hexagonal warriors were the best route for vagabond cultivators to develop.


    With so many tasks stacked together, Zhou Feng felt that his soul power was constantly being consumed. However, this consumption rate was barely acceptable because his soul power had soared once before.


    It would not affect his daily life. However, if he added a few more tasks, it might affect his daily actions.


    ¡°This shouldn¡¯t be bald, right?¡±


    Zhou Feng rubbed his head and realized that it was hotter than usual.


    This made him a little worried. If this continued, would he go bald?


    It shouldn¡¯t be! After all, this was the world of cultivation. It shouldn¡¯t be a problem to supplement it from time to time.

 Chapter 406 - Every Step I Take, I Calculate the Good and Bad

    Chapter 406 Every Step I Take, I Calculate the Good and Bad


    ¡°I have to say, this Hexadirectional Calculation is indeed the most suitable skill for my AI.¡±


    The AI had already deduced Hexadirectional Calculation to perfection in less than half a day.


    Perhaps the senior who had left behind this Hexadirectional Calculation didn¡¯t expect that someone would be able to spend half a day to master it in the future.


    To cultivate Hexadirectional Calculation to perfection, one could no longer be described as a genius.


    Moreover, such a large amount of deduction further stimulated Zhou Feng¡¯s AI to develop a second time.


    Zhou Feng felt that all the nutrients in his body were gathering in the opposite direction. There was also his soul power.


    The AI was like a bottomless pit, continuously devouring all the nutrients and soul power.


    ¡°Do you agree to give a higher authority? After agreeing, your Blood Qi and nutrients will be extracted, and there might be some consequences!¡±


    Suddenly, a request for authority appeared before Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    This was the AI requesting a higher level of authority.


    This was because the second development of the AI required a large amount of Blood Qi and additional nutrients.


    The previous extraction was guaranteed to be at a certain level, but it was obvious that this was not enough to satisfy the AI.


    Therefore, the AI requested a higher level of authority.


    Once Zhou Feng agreed, it was very likely that his entire body would go limp, and he would become listless.


    He did not know why, but this change was probably because of Hexadirectional Calculation?


    Hexadirectional Calculation was a mystical technique that he had obtained from Kui Xiang.


    After coming in contact with the AI, there seemed to be a strange change.


    ¡°I agree!¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally agreed to this.


    Although he did not know why the AI had suddenly started to develop again, it should be a good thing


    Insufficient Blood Qi? Insufficient nutrients? Not a problem at all!


    With his Level-2 Gluttony, Zhou Feng could directly devour a large amount of food and medicinal herbs to replenish the depleted nutrients and Blood Qi.


    ¡°Let¡¯s start eating!¡±


    Zhou Feng took a large amount of food and other things out of his storage ring and began to swallow.


    In the process, he noticed something interesting.


    The brainpower consumption actually benefited from the passive Consumption Reduction.


    One had to know that the passive Consumption Reduction could reduce the consumption of Blood, Qi, soul power, divine power, and so on by 10%.


    This also affected the brain.


    In this regard, Zhou Feng could only say that these passive effects were really powerful.


    The second development of the brain ended very quickly. Zhou Feng once again experienced the feeling of his soul power soaring


    This feeling was very wonderful. It was as if the capacity of his brain had suddenly expanded.


    All kinds of forgotten and useless memories were constantly emerging.


    Memories, such as the humidity and temperature of a certain day, were almost useless.


    Now, Zhou Feng only needed to think for a moment, and accurate data would suddenly pop up.


    ¡°Since this Hexadirectional Calculation is complete, let¡¯s calculate the good and bad luck!¡±


    After Zhou Feng felt the AI gradually quieten down, he immediately used Hexadirectional Calculation to calculate his luck today.


    This Hexadirectional Calculation seemed to be a little incomplete.


    The entire book only calculated the good and bad luck, and there was still some other information left behind.


    But because it was incomplete and did not have data to support it, the AI could not recover.


    ¡°Bad omen!¡±


    The originally troublesome calculation process was simplified to the shortest by the


    AI.


    Then, Zhou Feng obtained a fierce result.


    ¡°Is it mainly because of the Jade Sword Holy Land?¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly calculated that the Jade Sword Holy Land was the reason he was in danger.


    He had been there for a long time, so the Jade Sword Holy Land people seemed to have confirmed his location.


    And they were planning to surround him.


    ¡°Then¡­ What about entering the Cold Wind mountain range?¡±


    After calculating this result, Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    The joy of obtaining the AI had been somewhat diluted, and he didn¡¯t know what method the Jade Sword Holy Land had used.


    His extremely sensitive intuition actually didn¡¯t work.


    According to Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s findings, the Jade Sword Holy Land would make their move tonight.


    ¡°Great luck!¡±


    Later on, Zhou Feng calculated the outcome of entering the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Unexpectedly, it was great luck! As long as he entered the Cold Wind mountain range, it would be great luck? As long as he stayed where he was, it would be great misfortune?


    Zhou Feng did not hesitate! He immediately gave up on this temporary stronghold and dragged Big Yellow into the Cold Wind mountain range.


    ¡°Calculate the best route to enter the Cold Wind mountain range!¡±


    At the same time, he ordered the AI to continue to use Hexadirectional Calculation to calculate the best route.


    The specific operation was that every time Zhou Feng took a step, he would make a judgment of luck and misfortune.


    In the end, he chose a route that was full of good omens. He would choose a small bad omen if they were all bad omens.


    The amount of calculation involved was something that even the most freakish soothsayer could not calculate.


    No soothsayer had ever done this before!


    One step at a time, one step at a time! How afraid of death was he!?


    Generally speaking, other than techniques that were specifically used for fighting, the soothsayers would rarely use them.


    Some soothsayers even set a rule of three divinations per day.


    This was to reduce consumption. Calculating was a very energy-consuming thing, and excessive consumption could easily exhaust one¡¯s fate.


    Not to mention, when deducing some geniuses and powerhouses, the consumption was even more terrifying.


    However, Zhou Feng did not have such concerns. In any case, he had left all these tasks to the AI to calculate.


    One step at a time, with every step being a good omen. Wouldn¡¯t this be able to display the functions of Hexadirectional Calculation and the AI perfectly?


    Furthermore, Zhou Feng also planned to do the same during the battle.


    He would directly use his passive Battle Instinct as the main body, while the AI would use Hexadirectional Calculation as support.


    Wouldn¡¯t this mean that every move would be a perfect attack?


    ¡°Awesome!¡± Thinking of this, Zhou Feng took his first step. Although this simple step seemed simple, it was a step that the AI had assisted him in taking


    Be it the angle or the strength, as well as all other factors, it had reached perfection.


    Even the degree of dust had been calculated.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s temperament had changed a little. It was a feeling that the world was in his hands.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    A hint of doubt appeared in Big Yellow¡¯s eyes.


    ¡®Why does Master seem to have changed into a different person? He seems to have become more natural. Even his breathing has become indistinct.¡¯


    If not for their spiritual connection, Big Yellow would have thought that Zhou Feng had left.


    This was the effect of the AI using the Great Void Breathing Technique.


    The AI had optimized several times the Great Void Breathing Technique that Zhou Feng had painstakingly created in just a few seconds.


    Moreover, the AI had assisted him in controlling his body.


    They had all reached an optimal state, whether it was his breathing, his body fragrance, or anything else. This special state allowed Zhou Feng to completely blend into his surroundings, no matter where he was.


    In the eyes of others, he seemed to be a part of this place.


    If a cultivator with discerning eyes saw this, they would probably cry out in surprise. Wasn¡¯t this the state of being one with the world?


    He merged with heaven and earth with a breath. This was a state that countless cultivators dreamed of.


    Zhou Feng once again walked through the wilderness. He discovered that his speed was several times faster than before.


    Moreover, he also saved a lot of effort. It was completely different from the previous rampage.

 Chapter 407 - Reentering the Cold Wind Mountain Range

    Chapter 407 Reentering the Cold Wind Mountain Range


    ¡°Eh? What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Did the target disappear?¡±


    ¡°No! But it seems that someone from the same trade is covering for the target. We can¡¯t find any traces of him!¡±


    ILII


    A man wearing an Eight-Trigram Daoist robe frowned because he couldn¡¯t find any traces of Zhou Feng.


    It was as if Zhou Feng had disappeared from this world, leaving no information behind.


    Even if they used the mystical technique to speculate, they couldn¡¯t find any clues.


    This was too strange. This group of people had been tracking Zhou Feng for more than ten days.


    They wanted to capture Zhou Feng in exchange for the reward from the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    From their previous experience, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know any mystical techniques, nor did he have any mystical items.


    Therefore, he would leave behind some information that mystical techniques could deduce.


    But now, Zhou Feng seemed to have merged with the world. There was not a single bit of information that could be deduced.


    This person suspected that a peer was helping Zhou Feng


    ¡°What? There¡¯s a helper? Didn¡¯t they say that this person is a lone vagabond cultivator?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know! But even a lone wolf should have a few friends. This person is powerful, so it¡¯s not surprising that he has a few friends.¡±


    ¡°From the looks of it, the target has entered the Cold Wind mountain range. What should we do?¡±


    It was not difficult to guess his intention based on Zhou Feng¡¯s whereabouts. Zhou Feng wanted to enter the Cold Wind mountain range to avoid the limelight temporarily.


    After all, the Cold Wind mountain range was a perilous place. If Zhou Feng hid there wholeheartedly, there was nothing they could do.


    Not only were there many Yin creatures in the Cold Wind mountain range, but there were also demonic cultivators from all walks of life.


    Chasing him into the mountain range? Don¡¯t joke around! That was simply courting death.


    The lowest level of cultivators who could survive in the mountain range were Divine Ability ones.


    Moreover, they were not simple Divine Ability cultivators. Almost all of them had some unique life-saving trump cards.


    If they charged recklessly, they would die without knowing the when or how.


    On one side was the generous reward of the Jade Sword Holy Land, and on the other side were their own little lives.


    This group of people ultimately retreated.


    Zhou Feng choosing to hide in the Cold Wind mountain range was definitely a very wise choice.


    This was because many of the people who were chasing after him had stopped outside the Cold Wind mountain range.


    No one wanted to enter this damned place.


    ¡°Great fortune, misfortune, great misfortune¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng entered the Cold Wind mountain range once again.


    With every step he took, he felt a terrifying aura pressing down on his head, giving him a feeling of fear and trepidation.


    But this time, with every step he took, the AI made a lucky and ominous calculation.


    It ensured that every step was the most correct, and it chose the best route.


    Also, ever since Zhou Feng entered the Cold Wind mountain range, the AI had started to record all the data in the surroundings.


    It was precisely because of the AI¡¯s assistance that Zhou Feng appeared to be very relaxed at this moment as if he was on a spring outing.


    However, the aura that had been circulating in the vicinity was truly terrifying.


    ¡®What exactly happened here? Why did such a change occur? ¡®And how exactly did those creatures that were completely condensed from Ghost Qi form?¡¯


    Other than that, Zhou Feng still had many questions.


    ¡®Forget it! Let¡¯s find an auspicious place and build a secret cave abode first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng planned to stay in the Cold Wind mountain range for some time.


    Firstly, he could use the AI to improve himself in all aspects.


    Secondly, he wanted to stay out of the limelight.


    Lastly, it was about the ancient sect ruins and ancient tombs in the Cold Wind mountain range. He was quite interested in them.


    Zhou Feng used all his strength to have the AI perform the Hexadirectional Calculation.


    Countless data strings flowed through his mind, and at the same time, countless data strings were being collected.


    This process consumed a lot of soul power, but this process was necessary to ensure safety.


    As Zhou Feng continued to go deeper into the Cold Wind mountain range, the surrounding scenery gradually changed. Before, the surroundings were gloomy and lifeless.


    But now, there was a sense of vitality in the surroundings.


    Since the Cold Wind mountain range could accommodate so many demonic cultivators, not every place was a land of death.


    ¡®Someone¡¯s here?¡¯ Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    With the help of Hexadirectional Calculation, he instantly sensed that there was someone in front of him.


    At this time, Big Yellow also realized that something was wrong.


    Didn¡¯t they say that the people in the Cold Wind mountain range were few and far between? How did he encounter someone like that?


    Moreover, this person seemed to be fighting with something.


    ¡®It¡¯s hard to predict the good and bad luck?¡¯


    Zhou Feng hesitated for a moment, but he still chose to go and take a look.


    After obtaining the passive Bio AI, his ability to escape had increased by a level.


    In addition, with each step, the AI could use Hexadirectional Calculation to predict good and bad luck.


    This gave him great confidence.


    ¡°As expected! Only in the Cold Wind mountain range can nurture such a pure Devil Soul!¡±


    Mu Xuan was half-naked, and a strange beast appeared behind him, fighting with a Devil Soul.


    Because of the mysterious aura of the Cold Wind mountain range, Mu Xuan¡¯s divine sense was compressed to the extreme, so he didn¡¯t even notice Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This is¡­!


    Zhou Feng hid at the side and confidently observed the person in front of him.


    This person¡¯s aura was very strange to Zhou Feng¡¯s perception.


    It was as if thousands of auras were mixed together. It didn¡¯t look like a person at all. Instead, it was like countless mixed auras were forcefully kneaded together.


    There was also this person¡¯s bare upper body, which was covered with all kinds of unusual tattoos.


    When Mu Xuan was fighting, these tattoos were shimmering with rays of light.


    It was a completely different cultivation path!


    ¡°Thousand Demons Soul Devourer!¡±


    Mu Xuan didn¡¯t dare to delay for too long and unleashed his strongest attack.


    The tattoos that covered his entire body instantly became lively. Countless demonic beasts, ghosts, and monsters rushed out.


    They began to crazily bite the Devil Soul formed by Yin Qi in front of them.


    Not long after, Mu Xuan¡¯s face began to show a trace of a comfortable expression.


    And that chaotic aura had an additional trace of strangeness.


    ¡®A demonic art?¡¯


    Zhou Feng just stood there and watched quietly.


    This person in front of him seemed to be a little stronger than before.


    Wasn¡¯t this killing monsters to level up? What kind of method was this?


    If it were before, Zhou Feng might not be interested in this kind of demonic art as there were too many disadvantages. He had cultivated similar arts before. The more he cultivated, the more fearful he became.


    But now he had an AI and could create and optimize methods, it was a must to enrich the database. He might not cultivate this kind of demonic art, but he could always use it as a reference.


    ¡°Who is it!?¡±


    Suddenly, Mu Xuan felt that something was not right behind him.


    He became extremely nervous, like a cat with its fur standing on end.


    Unfortunately, Mu Xuan could not find where Zhou Feng was. He only felt that something was not right. It was as if someone was watching him from behind.


    Those who were able to survive in the Cold Wind mountain range naturally had a strong sense of danger.

 Chapter 408 - Ghost Binding Art

    Chapter 408 Ghost Binding Art


    ¡°Are they those old ghosts? Or¡­¡±


    Mu Xuan became highly alert and then carefully observed his surroundings.


    His first reaction was that those old monsters were targeting him.


    The Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins in the Cold Wind mountain range¡¯s core area were no longer covered by the black fog, so many people were paying attention to them.


    Of course, it was difficult to explore a ruin in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Countless small fries had to go one after another to find out the strangeness and danger inside.


    Therefore, those old monsters had been catching cannon fodder recently.


    Mu Xuan didn¡¯t want to be captured and used as cannon fodder.


    After mastering the demonic technique, he would have to go to those wh*res of the Jade Lake Holy Land to settle the score.


    ¡®Eh? Lucky?¡¯


    At that moment, the AI suddenly gave Zhou Feng a lucky sign.


    This meant that if Zhou Feng made a move, the consequences would be very likely to be good.


    In other words, this person had something good on him.


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    ¡°This is a good opportunity to test out what the Al¡¯s support in battle will be like!¡¯


    A trace of interest appeared on his face.


    He did not feel any psychological burden when he attacked Mu Xuan. After all, there were almost no good people who would enter the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Mu Xuan was filled with resentment, and there was a faint bloody glow behind him.


    One look and one could tell that he had harvested countless lives.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Who Is It? Why can¡¯t I find them!?¡±


    Mu Xuan was in a high-strung state, and his palms began to sweat unconsciously.


    It was a sign of danger, but no matter what method he used, he could not find the enemy.


    And he did not dare to move.


    Making a big commotion in the Cold Wind mountain range was taboo. If he ran away without caring about anything¡­ he might die faster.


    It was normal that Mu Xuan could not find Zhou Feng


    At present, Zhou Feng not only had the AI to help him restrain his aura but the passive Nature Affinity had been triggered.


    He had merged with his surroundings, and no one would be able to discover him without special means.


    ¡®Condensing Qi into a weapon!¡¯ Soon, the Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a long spear in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    Condensing the Great Void Primordial Qi into various weapons was a feat he could not achieve before.


    Compared to soul power, controlling the Great Void Primordial Qi was too difficult.


    Moreover, it was tough to compress and give shape to the Great Void Primordial Qi. Previously, Zhou Feng could only allow the Great Void Primordial Qi to cover his body or turn it into void miasma.


    However, with the help of the AI, the Great Void Primordial Qi seemed to have turned into dough.


    There was not even the slightest sound during the entire process of condensing.


    Mu Xuan was still looking around vigilantly, but he did not know that the killing intent had already condensed.


    Zhou Feng suddenly kicked the small stone beside him.


    A very soft sound echoed, and then Zhou Feng hurled the spear in his hand.


    This spear formed from the Great Void Primordial Qi did not make a sound as it was hurled toward a strange location.


    That location was very far away from Mu Xuan, after all.


    ¡°Danger!¡±


    When Mu Xuan heard the sound, the Blood Qi in his body almost subconsciously started burning, and all kinds of souls that were tied to his body were pushed out.


    A blood shadow remained on the spot.


    Then, Mu Xuan made a perfect connection with the spear that Zhou Feng threw out.


    From afar, it looked like Mu Xuan was seeking his own death as he crashed into the spear.


    Moreover, this spear had hit the weak point of Mo Xuan¡¯s defense.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Mo Xuan was shocked. Before he could react, the spear pierced through his chest.


    ¡°Is this the effect of using Hexadirectional Calculation during a fight?¡±


    Zhou Feng was also a little surprised when he saw this. Wasn¡¯t this the ability to predict the future?


    Such an unpredictable ability was simply terrifying


    It was likely that Zhou Feng was the only one who could use Hexadirectional Calculation to assist in battle.


    After all, battles were fought according to the circumstances. There was simply no time for him to use Hexadirectional Calculation to make predictions.


    Of course, a large part of the reason Zhou Feng was able to achieve such a terrifying attack was that he had just gathered information about Mu Xuan.


    Zhou Feng had stood by the side and observed Mu Xuan. He had not observed for nothing.


    The AI recorded all of Mu Xuan¡¯s information in the database during that process. It had even carried out countless battle simulations.


    ¡®Amazing!


    Zhou Feng sighed in his heart and walked out casually.


    At that moment, Mu Xuan finally saw who was ambushing him.


    ¡°Who is this person!?¡±


    When Mu Xuan saw Zhou Feng, he let out a sigh of relief because it was not those old ghosts.


    Then, he started to get nervous because the person in front of him was also very strange.


    Every step he took in the Cold Wind mountain range was so casual? Had he not gotten beaten up?


    When walking in the Cold Wind mountain range, the most taboo thing was to walk casually


    One didn¡¯t know if there was a trap waiting for them in front of them.


    Even those old geezers didn¡¯t dare to act so casually.


    Yet, Zhou Feng looked very relaxed, his body was spotless, and he had¡­ a hound behind him!? A spirit pet in the Cold Wind mountain range!?


    ¡°I¡¯ll ask. You answer.¡±


    Zhou Feng casually walked in the front of Mu Xuan and started to interrogate him.


    When Mu Xuan heard this, he didn¡¯t say anything and pretended to cooperate with him with all his might.


    Having been in the Cold Wind mountain range for so long, Mu Xuan could be considered an old fox.


    Naturally, he was a tactful person. He wouldn¡¯t directly open his mouth and utter nonsense unlike some people.


    ¡°What is your cultivation method? Tell me about it.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first question was directed at Mu Xuan¡¯s cultivation technique.


    One had to know that asking someone in person what cultivation technique they practiced was equivalent to a life and death grudge.


    ¡®Who do you think you are! You directly asked me in front of my face what cultivation technique I practice? Aren¡¯t you asking for a beating?¡¯


    However, facing Zhou Feng¡¯s question that was asking for death, Mu Xuan did not hesitate at all and opened his mouth.


    ¡°What I practice is a special technique that evolved from the Ghost Binding Art¡­¡±


    The Ghost Binding Art was a very simple technique that even many demonic cultivation sects passed down.


    Its principle was to wrap the ghosts around one¡¯s body, allowing one to borrow the power of these ghosts.


    Originally, this was just an ordinary cultivation technique, but a ghost cultivator had cultivated it to an extremely high realm one day.


    Theoretically speaking, this Ghost Binding Art could entangle countless Ghost Generals, Ghost Kings, and even Ghost Lords.


    As long as one could withstand the backlash, then they would be able to stack layer upon layer.


    In the end, said ghost cultivator had relied on this Ghost Binding Art to kill a Dragon Transformation expert while in the Divine Ability realm.


    This simply couldn¡¯t be described as a monster.


    as


    Ever since the Ghost Binding Art was developed, countless demonic cultivators began to specialize in it.


    The technique that Mu Xuan was cultivating was an improved version of the Ghost Binding Art.


    uo


    It could continuously subdue or devour all kinds of ghosts, Devil Souls, and malicious ghosts. Moreover, every time it succeeded, the corresponding tattoo would appear on the practitioner¡¯s body.


    ¡°These tattoos are also an important key to avoiding the backlash¡­¡±


    As Mu Xuan spoke, his eyes turned elsewhere.

 Chapter 409 - Demonic Cultivation Techniques

    Chapter 409 Demonic Cultivation Techniques


    It had to be said that because of the rapid progress in cultivation, countless geniuses had studied demonic cultivation techniques. Thus, all kinds of bloody and cruel cultivation techniques were created and never cut off.


    Because of human nature, people were inherently lazy.


    If there was a cultivation technique that was not only easy to cultivate, but one would also make rapid progress¡ªit was just that the cultivation technique was disadvantageous to others¡ªthen almost no one could resist it.


    In any case, if the ones being injured were others and not the practitioner, then the latter had no problem with it.


    It was precisely because of this that countless demonic cultivation techniques were improved.


    All sorts of arts to deceive the world were also created.


    A genius demonic cultivator had created the tattoos Mu Xuan had mentioned.


    In the beginning, that person had subdued a few wandering ghosts and bound them to the body with those tattoos.


    Their bodies would be affected by the Ghost Qi during this process, and their physiques would gradually change.


    Then, they would restrain some powerful evil spirits, Devil Souls, and even all sorts of strange things. In the end, their bodies would also be modified, no longer resembling humans.


    Their bodies would become super vessels, carrying countless evil spirits and Devil Souls.


    These evil spirits and Devil Souls had to rely on their bodies as vessels. Once the vessels disappeared, they would disappear along with them.


    Therefore, these ghosts and Devil Souls would do their best to protect the vessel.


    From a certain point of view, the Ghost Binding Art was simply a method of longevity.


    If everything went smoothly, one would only become stronger and stronger after practicing the Ghost Binding Art, and they would also share their life with a Ghost Lord for countless years.


    In order to continue to exist in this world, those ghosts would certainly try their best to protect the vessel.


    Moreover, because of the Ghost Binding Art, they were able to restrain a large number of ghosts.


    Under such concerted efforts, they might really live for a very long time in the end.


    ¡®What a prodigy!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sighed after listening to this. The person who created the Ghost Binding Art was a prodigy.


    He had actually developed such a terrifying cultivation technique.


    In fact, according to Mu Xuan, this Ghost Binding Art even encompassed artificial ghosts.


    This was because as one¡¯s strength increased, the number of powerful ghosts and Devil Souls became fewer and fewer, or it was impossible to restrain some of the more powerful ones.


    The more ghosts that resided in the tattoos, the greater the impact it would have on the cultivator¡¯s soul.


    It was very easy to become a lunatic.


    Therefore, the person who had created the Ghost Binding Art had pondered whether he could create a Ghost King that was suitable to be restrained. In the end, he found a solution


    ¡ªthe Blood Sacrifice Ghost Creation Technique.


    Numerous mortals had been slaughtered because of this demonic technique, seriously affecting the human order.


    In the end, the large sects wiped out those practicing that foul art, and the Ghost Binding Art was also torn apart.


    As for the Ghost Binding Art that Mu Xuan had mentioned, the AI had recorded it all into the database. Then, it began to carry out various deductions and optimizations.


    After Zhou Feng obtained the AI, his first thought was to deduce a cultivation technique for himself.


    A cultivation technique tailored to the actual situation.


    There was also the divine ability, which was the strongest when it suited him.


    There was no invincible cultivation technique, only invincible people.


    He had always believed in this saying.


    This Ghost Binding Art was obviously a good reference target. It could continuously grow and even seal ghosts. ¡®Fierce!


    At this moment, the Alls Hexadirectional Calculation, which had been running all this time, suddenly gave out a warning.


    It was obvious that Mu Xuan would not give up without a fight.


    No one who could survive in the Cold Wind mountain range was a good person.


    Mu Xuan would not entrust his life to a stranger. He had cooperated so much because he wanted to keep his life for the time being.


    Zhou Feng was too terrifying. After all, he had severely injured him with just one move.


    Moreover, he could walk in the Cold Wind mountain range was like a spring outing.


    He could not be lucky when facing such a person.


    Mu Xuan had obviously made the right bet. He revealed his core cultivation technique and successfully stalled for time.


    During this period of delay, he had forcefully wiped away the Great Void Primordial Qi in his heart.


    He already had the strength to retaliate, so there was no need to continue pretending.


    ¡°Blood Demon! Come out!¡±


    The tattoo on Mu Xuan¡¯s chest suddenly lit up, and a smear of blood-red light shone in all directions.


    It directly attracted a huge amount of Yin Qi nearby.


    Waves of strange, hair-raising sounds rang out.


    However, in the face of this action, Zhou Feng only slowly formed a spear in his hand.


    The spear formed by the Great Void Primordial Qi pierced the connection between the Blood Demon and Mu Xuan in an instant.


    Perhaps Mu Xuan did not expect that the words he said just now had become his life-threatening talisman.


    The Hexadirectional Calculation relied on big data. The more data one knew the more accurate their guesses would be.


    sses


    After mastering it, one could even profile a stranger from some unimportant information.


    If Mu Xuan told Zhou Feng about his core cultivation technique, it would be the same as telling Zhou Feng about his weakness.


    The processing speed of the AI took less than a second. It was able to deduce Mu Xuan¡¯s weakness and what Mu Xuan would do next.


    ¡°What!?¡± Mo Xuan said in disbelief again.


    This attack had destroyed his life force and hit his core.


    Zhou Feng had calculated all of Mo Xuan¡¯s thoughts twice.


    Was the person who had this ability still human?


    Mo Xuan knew that Zhou Feng was stronger than him, but he couldn¡¯t accept such a failure.


    Was he still human? How could he do this?


    This almost supernatural method made Mu Xuan extremely unwilling.


    ¡®Why am I so unlucky to meet such a person in the Cold Wind mountain range!?¡¯


    But no matter how unwilling and angry he was, Mu Xuan¡¯s life force was already gone.


    Zhou Feng casually avoided the Yin Qi that was triggered. With the AI¡¯s calculations, the harsh environment in the Cold Wind mountain range could not affect him at all.


    The AI could even help Big Yellow to avoid the Yin Qi or Ghost Qi. ¡®This demonic technique seems pretty good!¡¯ Zhou Feng casually looted the things on Mu Xuan¡¯s body. If he wanted to collect all kinds of cultivation techniques outside, it would undoubtedly be taboo.


    It would attract countless people to hunt him down, and even some Dragon Transformation realm bigshots.


    However, in the Cold Wind mountain range, almost all demonic cultivators traveled alone.


    Moreover, no one would care if the cultivation technique of a demonic cultivator was stolen.


    This was a very good opportunity, an opportunity to expand the database.


    Zhou Feng also did not deal with Mu Xuan¡¯s corpse because someone else would deal with


    it.


    Next, he continued to calculate the best location with the help of the AI, preparing to build a cave abode.


    Because he had the AI, he was actually equivalent to a Feng Shui Master.


    Not long after, he found an excellent location, one that was full of vitality, was sufficiently concealed, and had a natural formation.


    ¡°This place is simply perfect!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the perfect location in front of him, and at the same time, he felt many auras.


    It seemed that this cave was occupied.

 Chapter 410 - Invincible Battle Prowess

    Chapter 410 Invincible Battle Prowess


    The place in front of Zhou Feng was surrounded by mountains on both sides, and there was a small lake in the middle.


    From the terrain, it looked extremely good.


    Moreover, there was actually a natural maze formation in the surroundings. A thin layer of fog would arise as long as one approached it.


    Regarding the knowledge of formations, after Zhou Feng obtained the AI, he had already done all sorts of analyses.


    Although his mastery over formations was not very good, he still had the ability to analyze and dismantle them.


    He could even feel traces of Spiritual Qi condensing in this place.


    There seemed to be a spiritual tree growing beside the lake?


    Compared to other places in the Cold Wind mountain range, this place was practically heaven and earth.


    No wonder there were so many people gathered here.


    In his perception, there were six auras in this place.


    Moreover, they were all at the Divine Ability realm.


    ¡®Let¡¯s get rid of these people first.¡¯


    Zhou Feng ordered the AI to deduce how to get rid of these people in one go.


    After obtaining the AI, his battle prowess had increased to an unknown degree.


    This was because the AI¡¯s control of power was way better than Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    Normally, if a person could unleash 100% of their power, the AI could unleash 200% of their power.


    Moreover, it would never make a mistake and was extremely stable.


    When combined with Hexadirectional Calculation, Zhou Feng could fight while deducing good and bad luck.


    This made Zhou Feng feel as if he had entered the realm of invincibility.


    It was to the extent that he even wanted to compare himself with a Dragon Transformation powerhouse.


    Not long after, the AI came up with a perfect plan.


    It was to use this natural maze formation to deal with them. Zhou Feng would not suffer any injuries, but he had to go all out this time. It was not as easy as dealing with Mu Xuan.


    ¡°Then¡­ Let¡¯s begin!¡±


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was agitated, and the Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a battle armor, which looked like a flowing stream of water, flowing slowly under the sunlight.


    The golden Blood Qi did not leak out at all; only Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes had turned golden.


    This was the performance of the AI¡¯s meticulous control, controlling every iota of power, not allowing even a little bit to leak out.


    In the past, he would not have been able to do it no matter what.


    This was because it was too much of a waste of time and mental power. Only with the AI¡¯s assistance could he achieve this.


    ¡°How dare you!?¡±


    ¡°Who is it! ?¡±


    ¡°How dare you come to cause trouble for this old man!¡±


    II


    11


    Big Yellow¡¯s ears perked up as he was on alert for any danger around him upon hearing the noisy voices.


    The sounds of battle could be heard from time to time within the formation.


    But soon, these noises ended.


    Zhou Feng relied on the Great Void Primordial Qi to form his armor, his spear, and his powerful physical body.


    He ignored the various attacks of these demonic cultivators.


    Because no matter what attacks they used, he could withstand them.


    These demonic cultivators¡¯ various divine abilities were rendered useless against Zhou


    Feng.


    What¡¯s worse, he could instantly find these demonic cultivators¡¯ weaknesses with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    He could even hide his tracks with the help of the natural formation.


    This was simply a massacre!


    However, other than one or two unlucky people who were used as examples to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys, the rest managed to survive¡­ because he needed their cultivation techniques.


    ¡°Monster! Monster!¡±


    One of them looked at Zhou Feng with a face full of fear, as if he could not accept the one-sided massacre. The black and white armor on Zhou Feng¡¯s body did not disappear, and he also had a calm look on his face.


    ¡°Tell me your cultivation techniques one by one!¡±


    It was as simple and direct as before.


    ¡°Grand Demon Splitting Art!¡±


    As soon as Zhou Feng finished speaking, the person who had a face full of fear just now suddenly split his body into six parts and immediately fled in six different directions.


    It was obvious that he had been faking his fear just now.


    After all, these old foxes were tenacious. How could they be so easily frightened?


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s battle prowess was a little exaggerated, he didn¡¯t even use any flashy attacks, subduing everyone here in an instant.


    But this didn¡¯t scare these old foxes at all. On the contrary, when they saw that Zhou Feng had intentionally spared their lives¡­ all of them began to choose to run for their lives.


    The moment this person who used the Grand Demon Splitting Art moved, the others also began to use all sorts of trump cards.


    However, all of this was within the scope of the AI¡¯s consideration.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a bow.


    The bow was drawn, and the arrow was nocked!


    One arrow hit one of the people who wanted to escape with extreme precision, extinguishing his life force!


    One second ago, that person was still a terrifying demonic cultivator in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    He could even be called an old ancestor in the outside world.


    But in the next second, he was shot to death by Zhou Feng¡¯s arrow.


    Moreover, that scene was as if he had crashed into Zhou Feng¡¯s arrow and died. That scene was extremely bizarre.


    Zhou Feng finally understood, with the help of the AI, why Human Emperor Great Void had only one divine ability to become the Human Emperor.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi¡¯s uses were infinite!


    It could be condensed and dissipate at will. Its defensive power was top-notch, and it also had a terrifying destructive power.


    Once the Great Void Primordial Q? hit someone the void power would continuously wear down their physical body.


    One had to use the same power to resist it. Otherwise, their vitality would be drained by the destructive power.


    The most exaggerated thing was that the Great Void Primordial Qi could still be used in a cycle.


    If the armor on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, which was condensed by theGreat Void Primordial Qii, was broken, the Great Void Primordial Qi would still be condensed under his control.


    It was a combination of offense and defense! The consumption was negligible!


    It was too terrifying! The Great Void Primordial Art had almost no flaws other than consuming too much soul energy.


    In order to reach its current level, Zhou Feng¡¯s AI had to stop all other tasks. He used all its computational power to assist him in the battle.


    ¡°I¡¯ll ask, you answer!¡±


    The strong bow in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand dissipated into Great Void Primordial Qi, which then turned into a pistol.


    He pointed the pistol at these people.


    Although these people didn¡¯t know what Zhou Feng was holding, they didn¡¯t act rashly because the previous arrow hadn¡¯t killed just any ordinary person.


    Zhou Feng had already proved that he was confident in killing all the people here alone.


    And it was effortless.


    ¡®How could this kind of monster enter the Cold Wind mountain range?¡¯


    ¡®Damn it! Could something have come into being in the Cold Wind mountain range?¡¯


    ¡®Isn¡¯t he afraid of those old Dragon Transformation monsters?¡¯


    These people cursed crazily in their hearts. In their eyes, Zhou Feng was definitely the Holy Son of some holy land.


    He couldn¡¯t possibly be a vagabond cultivator given his strength and bearing.


    They didn¡¯t understand why a Holy Son like Zhou Feng would enter the Cold Wind mountain range.


    After all, only demonic cultivators and fiends were willing to live in the Cold Wind mountain range despite its harsh environment.


    The Spiritual Qi here was thin, and it was not suitable for ordinary cultivators to cultivate.


    Although they had many things to say in their hearts, these people still chose to comply.


    They revealed their cultivation techniques one by one.


    They were not as stubborn as some sect disciples. Although cultivation techniques were important, they were not more important than their lives.

 Chapter 411 - Overload State

    Chapter 411 Overload State


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s violent suppression, everyone present revealed their cultivation techniques one by one.


    As for those who wanted to hide some details?


    It was fine. Zhou Feng would take action and not give the slightest chance.


    He only wanted to fill in the AI¡¯s database, so it didn¡¯t matter if they didn¡¯t reveal everything


    Anyway, as he accumulated more and more knowledge, the AI would deduce most of the cultivation techniques¡¯ crucial points.


    ¡°Madman! Didn¡¯t he want our cultivation techniques?¡±


    ¡°Kill as you wish!¡±


    ¡°Hold it in!¡±


    Originally, these people thought that Zhou Feng was coveting their cultivation techniques.


    Some people planned to change the cultivation techniques¡¯ crucial parts or hide important information.


    But it was clear that Zhou Feng did not value their cultivation techniques very much.


    As long as there was something wrong, he would kill.


    This kind of indifferent attitude made everyone present not dare to speak carelessly. They all revealed everything about their cultivation techniques in one go.


    Zhou Feng listened expressionlessly. Later on, he complained that this kind of efficiency was a little slow.


    Thus, he let these people simultaneously use their own cultivation techniques.


    After all, as long as he heard it, the AI would be able to record it. One person speaking and a group of people speaking at the same time were all the same.


    Zhou Feng finally felt what using cheats in a game was like.


    The passive Bio AI was like a master key.


    It brought out all the potential that Zhou Feng had accumulated previously.


    And the passive skills he had obtained were his hidden potential.


    Due to Zhou Feng¡¯s super recovery ability, the AI advised him to enter an overload state during battle.


    This overload state was a way to increase one¡¯s strength forcefully.


    However, this state would cause huge damage to the body.


    The AI¡¯s terrifying control ability could ensure that Zhou Feng could unleash his strongest attacks during battle.


    However, it was able to maintain his body in a state where it was about to collapse but not completely collapse.


    In this state, if Zhou Feng were to increase his strength even a little, his body would collapse.


    It could be said that this was a crazy plan.


    However, he was very interested in this overload state.


    This was because the AI could perfectly assist him in controlling his body.


    He allowed the various parts of his physical body to rest separately. Once he was out of combat mode, Zhou Feng could rely on his passive Tenacious Heart to recover from his injuries.


    The large amount of Blood Qi that the passive Second Heart produced also supported the feasibility of this state.


    It also included other passive skills, such as Blood Qi Recovery and Consumption Reduction.


    When all his passive skills worked together, the power that he could unleash was far beyond his imagination.


    Zhou Feng could not integrate all the passive skills by himself in the past.


    Thus, he could form a powerful fighting force.


    He had even forgotten how many passive skills he had acquired.


    However, the AI could not.


    Ever since Zhou Feng had recorded all the passive skills he had into the AI,, the AI had started to optimize his strength during battle.


    His current overwhelming battle prowess was proof of that.


    His opponents were clearly veteran Divine Ability cultivators, but they were like kittens before Zhou Feng. They could not even use the divine abilities that they were most proud of.


    This was because all of this had been calculated to death by the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation.


    Whoever made a move would be the first to die!


    ¡°Don¡¯t kill me! I have a dao token passed down from the Chaotian Temple!¡±


    Seeing that everyone had finished explaining their cultivation techniques, the sense of crisis in Blackie¡¯s heart did not diminish in the slightest.


    He instantly understood that this fiend in front of him did not intend to let them off.


    Thus, Blackie offered up his most precious treasure to ensure his safety.


    ¡°What!? The Chaotian Temple¡¯s dao token is with you!?¡±


    ¡°I knew it! I knew there was something wrong with you. I¡¯m afraid the Chaotian Temple¡¯s relic appeared because of you!¡±


    ¡°The black fog had been hiding the Chaotian Temple¡¯s relic for so long. I was wondering why it suddenly appeared!¡±


    IL


    1


    Blackie¡¯s words immediately aroused the intense emotions of the others.


    ¡®Chaotian Temple?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what this so-called Chaotian Temple was, but he could feel his entire being¡¯s intense desire to live.


    However, it was precisely because of this intense desire to live that he could not keep these people.


    ¡®Initiate Overload!¡¯ he muttered in his heart.


    The AI instantly assisted Zhou Feng and released all of his strength.


    Under normal circumstances, a cultivator could not release all of their strength because their soul and physical body were restricted.


    This was to prevent the cultivator from dying in an instant.


    However, such a problem was not a problem with the help of the AI.


    The golden Blood Qi dragon surrounded Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and the black and white Great Void Primordial Qi became more restrained. ¡°Not good! Do It!¡±


    ¡°Quickly!¡±


    The others were already prepared for Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden attack and immediately resisted.


    However, all of this was in vain. After Zhou Feng entered the overload state, it was as if a person¡¯s life force was wiped out with a single move.


    There was nothing much to describe the battle process-a spear condensed from Great Void Primordial Qi killed a person with a single stab.


    There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of aura leaking


    out.


    That attack was like Death¡¯s sickle, harvesting their lives.


    It was too terrifying! This fiend was too terrifying!


    None of their divine abilities and spiritual artifacts had the slightest effect, but this fiend could instantly pierce through all their defenses.


    In this situation, even if they used all their trump cards, they couldn¡¯t change the tragic outcome.


    It was a type of extreme despair.


    ¡°No! I beg you! I can¡¯t die! I¡¯m willing to let you brand my soul!¡± Blackie shouted with all his strength in despair.


    To brand one¡¯s soul with another cultivator¡¯s was something that most cultivators wouldn¡¯t do.


    It was very humiliating, after all.


    Once one¡¯s soul was branded, they¡¯d be a slave for the rest of their life.


    Even if one wanted to break through, they would have to obtain their master¡¯s permission.


    As long as one was a determined cultivator, they would never choose to live this way.


    However, Blackie had a deep hatred in his heart. In order to have a chance to take revenge, he didn¡¯t mind becoming a slave.


    ¡°Release your soul.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s cold voice sounded.


    Blackie was stunned for a second before he released his soul.


    He had made the right bet! Zhou Feng killed all the others, but he survived.


    Moreover, it was not impossible to get rid of this soul brand.


    As long as the soul was split, there was a chance to get rid of the control.


    However, the consequence of doing so was that the soul would be unstable, and it was very likely to die on the spot.


    After all, splitting the soul was not a joke. It was already the limit of safety for a normal cultivator to split a strand of their soul.


    If they wanted to get rid of the control of the soul brand, at least half of their soul would be


    split.


    That was simply courting death.


    However, Blackie did not care. As long as he was alive, there was hope.


    Not long after, Zhou Feng left a brand on Blackie¡¯s soul.


    ¡°Good. The miscellaneous people have been eliminated.¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly exited the overload state, and his appearance turned terrifying in an instant.


    Large amounts of blood seeped out of his pores, and his body fell into a state of collapse. His aura quickly withered as well.

 Chapter 412 - So Sudden!?

    Chapter 412 So Sudden!?


    Zhou Feng only felt a sharp pain all over his body at that moment. After coming into contact with Overload, the collapse of his physical body and the weakening of his soul almost made him unable to stand steadily.


    The overload state was powerful. He was like a god or demon, but the price was too great!


    If it weren¡¯t for the AI¡¯s assistance in controlling his physical body, he wouldn¡¯t be able to stand steadily.


    ¡°May I ask if you want to block the pain?¡±


    The AI reminded him that he could block the pain at that moment.


    After so long, the AI had gradually become a genuine AI, and it could even speak on its own.


    Previously, the AI would act like a rigid robot.


    ¡°Block!¡± Zhou Feng immediately answered in his heart.


    The intense pain instantly disappeared.


    And as the passive Tenacious Heart was triggered, Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to recover.


    Blackie, who was standing by the side, had a sudden thought when he saw Zhou Feng¡¯s energy waning.


    However, he didn¡¯t dare to make a move. Upon seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s energy rapidly recover, he felt lucky again.


    ¡®Fortunately, I didn¡¯t act rashly just now!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had spared Blackie behind was actually a whim.


    These people had been in the Cold Wind mountain range for so long, so they should be more familiar with the area and could ask around.


    There were also the Chaotian Temple ruins, which Zhou Feng was also a little interested


    in.


    Moreover, he had collected so many demonic techniques he had to give them to an experimental subject to test if the AI could deduce the cultivation technique.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t use himself as an experiment. Thus, he left Blackie behind.


    However, the fate awaiting this person should be the same as the dead bodies on the ground..


    ¡°Big Yellow, come In!¡±


    Big Yellow, who had been waiting outside, instantly ran in.


    Then, he started to smell everywhere.


    ¡°This is our cave abode. Supervise this person to clean up this place!¡±


    Zhou Feng appointed Big Yellow to supervise Blackie as he cleaned up all the corpses.


    This would be Zhou Feng¡¯s first official cave abode.


    He would also need to modify the natural maze formation nearby.


    Then, he would set up a few more formations.


    This should be his first home after transmigrating to this world for so long.


    After having the idea of settling down, Zhou Feng ordered the AI to deduce the problems related to formations.


    He was prepared to set up a super formation for his family.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow barked at Blackie upon receiving his order.


    Blackie¡¯s reaction was also very fast.


    Now that he was a fish on the chopping block, he could only cooperate.


    He immediately began to deal with the various corpses, as well as the spoils of war on these corpses. He also collected them one by one.


    Soon, two months passed¡­


    Two months had passed.


    During these two months since Zhou Feng had established his own cave abode, he had used the deduction of the AI.


    He had transformed the natural formation around the cave abode into a super maze formation.


    He had also set up various traps, all of which were poisonous.


    He had even transplanted some strange plants as a barrier.


    Then, they dug a cave in one of the mountains and used it as a closed-door cultivation room.


    ¡®Can we set up a Spirit Gathering Formation now?¡¯ Zhou Feng asked in his heart.


    Because this Cold Wind mountain range was very strange, there was almost no Spiritual Qi, and it was extremely troublesome to cultivate.


    Fortunately, things always went in the opposite direction when they reached the extreme. This damn place didn¡¯t have any Spiritual Qi, and there was Yin and Ghost Qi everywhere.


    On the contrary, some spirit trees were born to absorb Yin Qi and cleanse it.


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng¡¯s cave had a few of these special spirit trees.


    (Yin-Absorbing Spirit Tree: A special spirit tree that can only grow above Yin veins. It can convert Yin Qi into pure Spiritual Qi.


    Its fruit is extremely poisonous and can not be eaten.)


    The information above was obtained by Zhou Feng using his passive Appraising Eye.


    This kind of spirit tree could convert Yin Qi into pure Spiritual Qi.


    It was also one of the reasons Zhou Feng could build his cave abode here. After all, it would be difficult for Zhou Feng to cultivate without Spiritual Qi.


    Especially since he had the AI, his need for Spiritual Qi had doubled.


    Previously, he was the one who worked hard to absorb Spiritual Qi, but now it was the AI that assisted him in 24/7 automatic cultivation.


    Normally, places where the Spiritual Qi was insufficient were simply not enough for him. That was why he had spent more than two months transplanting all the nearby Yin-Absorbing Spirit Trees together.


    Then, with these Yin-Absorbing Spirit Trees as the core, he planned to build a Spirit Gathering Formation.


    He would not allow the pure Spiritual Qi that had just been released to leak out.


    Because he did not have much knowledge of formations before, Zhou Feng could only use the AI to deduce little by little.


    ¡°Simulation completed! The success rate of setting up the Spirit Gathering Formation is 100%!¡±


    The AI¡¯s response was also very simple.


    The Spirit Gathering Formation had been deduced, and it could be set up at any time.


    And once it was set up successfully, it would form a connection with the natural maze formation outside.


    After that, it didn¡¯t need to be changed, and it would be able to continue to function.


    Actually, it wouldn¡¯t have taken so long if it were just an ordinary Spirit Gathering Formation.


    But what Zhou Feng wanted was to be able to form a connection with the natural maze formation outside.


    It would make it impossible to find his cave abode, and one would only circle around outside.


    That was why it would take so long.


    ¡®Then let¡¯s start setting up the Spirit Gathering Formation now! But before that, we still need to resolve the hidden dangers!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed with a bright light.


    At that moment, after this period of silence, his entire aura had become ethereal and strange.


    No matter where he went, he would be able to blend into his surroundings perfectly.


    This gave Blackie more and more pressure.


    ¡®Fortunately, I can temporarily preserve my life! Moreover, I still have the chance to learn this kind of demonic technique!¡¯


    While Blackie was becoming more and more respectful toward Zhou Feng, a trace of ambition also rose in his heart.


    This was because Zhou Feng had previously given Blackie the Ghost Binding Art that the Al had improved by using Yin Qi instead of Ghost Qi.


    During this period, Blackie had bound a large number of malicious ghosts, and his physical body had also gradually transformed into a Yin Ghost Body.


    The Yin Qi in his body was becoming denser and denser, and his strength was many times stronger than before. This kind of demonic technique that could infinitely increase in strength was too obvious during the period of benefits.


    Now, Blackie could summon dozens of malicious ghosts to fight in an instant, and a thick layer of Yin Qi protected his body.


    Coupled with the geographical advantage of the Cold Wind mountain range, Blackie could bluntly say that it wouldn¡¯t be a problem for him to fight ten cultivators alone.


    As long as he didn¡¯t meet a pervert like Zhou Feng, the other Divine Ability cultivators wouldn¡¯t fight casually.


    ¡°Blackie, come Here!¡±


    Blackie, who was satisfied with the rapid increase in his strength, suddenly heard Zhou Feng¡¯s voice.


    His face instantly changed into a flattering look, as if he was a perfect lackey.


    ¡°Coming!¡±


    After a few seconds, Blackie arrived in front of Zhou Feng


    ¡°Master! What instructions do you have? Are you going to investigate the Chaotian Temple?¡±


    ¡°Chaotian Temple? I really need to visit that place at some point. But before that, your mission has been completed.¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Blackie with satisfaction. The effect of this improved Ghost Binding Art was not bad, but it was not suitable for him now.


    His terrifying Human Emperor Blood would not spare any malicious ghosts that entered his body. The ghosts would instantly evaporate as soon as they got close to him.


    It seemed that the cultivation of this Ghost Binding Art could only be postponed. ¡°My mission is complete?¡±


    Blackie¡¯s smile froze instantly.


    Before he could resist, Zhou Feng activated the soul brand, and Blackie¡¯s soul was obliterated.


    ¡°So sudden!?¡±


    This was Blackie¡¯s thought before he lost consciousness.

 Chapter 413 - Chaotian Temple Ruins (Fixed]

    Chapter 413 Chaotian Temple Ruins (Fixed]


    Note: Sorry for the inconvenience. Sometimes the system doesn¡¯t save the translated chapter.


    During these few months, Blackie had been doing everything he could.


    He had wanted to stabilize Zhou Feng and find a chance to escape.


    After all, his life was in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands. Blackie didn¡¯t dare to fight it out with him.


    Originally, he thought that his life was at least stabilized.


    Zhou Feng suddenly had a Divine Ability slave. This was a great thing, and no one would be stupid enough not to want a Divine Ability slave.


    Still, Zhou Feng was so decisive that he didn¡¯t say a word and wiped out Blackie¡¯s soul in one move.


    This was because Zhou Feng thought Blackie was a threat.


    Even though Blackie¡¯s life was in his hands, if Blackie didn¡¯t want to live anymore and started something in the dark or leaked some information, that would be unacceptable to Zhou Feng


    No matter what method he used to control Blackie, Zhou Feng felt uneasy.


    Therefore, he might as well just kill Blackie.


    ¡°Big Yellow! Come here quickly! I¡¯m going to set up the formation!¡±


    Zhou Feng casually used the Great Void Primordial Qi to grind Blackie¡¯s body away.


    At the same time, he asked Big Yellow to return to his side as he was about to set up a Spirit Gathering Formation.


    Once the Spirit Gathering Formation was set up, the small lake in the center would be perfect for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish to settle down.


    Compared to the fish tank, this kind of lake was more suitable for the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow immediately rushed over upon hearing his call.


    After Zhou Feng chose to settle down in the Cold Wind mountain range, Big Yellow also began to liberate his nature.


    He continued to focus his energy on pill refinement. No one knew why a hound liked pill refinement so much.


    However, Zhou Feng did not stop him because Big Yellow also did not need to cultivate.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s strength soared, Big Yellow¡¯s strength also rose a little.


    With the passive Spirit Pet Heart, no matter what Big Yellow did, as long as Zhou Feng¡¯s strength increased, Big Yellow¡¯s cultivation would be able to increase. Thus, he did not want Big Yellow to be bored. Since he liked to refine pills, then he would refine pills.


    This was not a big deal.


    After a while of preparation¡­


    Zhou Feng let the AI take over his body and began to change the surrounding terrain. He also inserted pieces of Spirit Stones into a special position. The Great Void Primordial Qi was also a great help in this process.


    The special ability to wear down everything allowed him to change the terrain at will. Even the shape of a stone could be changed with just a thought from Zhou Feng.


    Hence, this Spirit Gathering Formation did not waste much time.


    Next, Zhou Feng placed the Crystal Warm Jade at the formation¡¯s core, and the surrounding Yin Qi was all expelled. Then, threads of Spiritual Qi slowly gathered.


    From now on, as time passed, the amount of Spiritual Qi here would increase.


    Finally, the Yin Qi would be fed back to the few Yin-Absorbing Spirit Trees, forming a virtuous cycle.


    ¡°Perfect! It¡¯s finally done!¡±


    Seeing that the Spirit Gathering Formation was working perfectly, Zhou Feng let out a sigh of relief.


    The foundation of this cave abode was finally built.


    From now on, as long as it was improved and optimized a little, it would become a blessed land in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    And after this, Zhou Feng¡¯s desire for all kinds of knowledge had also reached its peak.


    Feng shui, formations, pill refinement, artifact refinement, and all kinds of cultivation knowledge, he wanted to understand them all because he wanted to build a true cave abode in the future.


    That kind of true cave abode was located in another space. At that time, he could plant, graze, and live a leisurely life in it.


    After all, if he really lived a long life, he would have to find something to do.


    He couldn¡¯t fight everywhere, right?


    Creating a cave abode similar to a small world seemed to be a good goal.


    ¡°Then I can¡¯t let go of the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins!¡±


    Zhou Feng had already made up his mind that he would go and take a look at the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    A large sect with a history of more than 1,000 years definitely had all kinds of knowledge and treasures.


    There was also the most important cultivation technique of the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Divine Ability realm, so it was inevitable for him to cultivate all kinds of divine abilities.


    And the next realm was the Dragon Transformation realm, so he also needed to consider it.


    Of course, there was also the issue of finding trouble with the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Zhou Feng would not forget that he was a person who held grudges.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land was chasing after him everywhere. Zhou Feng would never forget that.


    ¡°Then, I¡¯ll draw another passive skill before this!¡±


    Zhou Feng opened the skill panel.


    After two months of torment, he had killed many old monsters, so the progress bar had long been full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Because he had drawn the golden passive ai last time, Zhou Feng did not have much hope for the draw this time.


    After all, it was impossible for a person to be so lucky.


    This time, he had saved up his luck.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡± ¡°Draw successful!¡±


    Piercing Yang: When you use a bow-type weapon, Accuracy increases by 50%, and Power increases by 15%.


    ¡°Piercing Yang? What a simple passive skill!¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this new passive skill, his heart did not waver at all because this passive skill was only so-so.


    Compared to those heaven-defying passive skills, it was still quite lacking.


    But it was not too bad as the 15% power increase was a percentage increase.


    If Zhou Feng used the Great Void Primordial Qi to simulate a bow and arrow, the power would have increased by 15%.


    After doing some calculations, it was quite impressive.


    However, this 50% increase in accuracy was not very useful.


    With the deduction of the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation, Zhou Feng had always been able to hit every target.


    ¡°Not bad! It¡¯s better than nothing!¡±


    After obtaining a new passive skill, Zhou Feng planned first to consolidate his strength and then explore the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    At a place in the Cold Wind mountain range¡­


    Originally, no matter where one was in the Cold Wind mountain range, they would always hear the howling of the cold winds and witness the withering of all living things.


    Only some special places would have some Yin-Absorbing Spirit Trees.


    But at this moment, there wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of Yin Qi here.


    Instead, a wave of Spiritual Qi surged out from all around, and within the Spiritual Qi, there was a faint breath of pure Yang.


    The black fog, which could not be dispersed for tens of thousands of years, was now broken by a light curtain.


    Layers of buildings were revealed inside.


    Although these buildings looked very old, one could still feel the grandeur and magnificence of the past.


    The large vermilion column seemed to be able to support the sky, and the colorful glazed tiles shone with a dazzling light.


    A majestic atmosphere and a magnificent and solemn aura arose spontaneously. This was the Chaotian Temple¡¯s headquarters, a super sect that had existed for more than 1.000 years.


    It was just that no one knew what had happened back then. Not only had all the Daoists been unable to escape, but a black fog swallowed them, and even the Cold Wind mountain range was affected.


    ¡°It really came into being! What exactly happened back then?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know! No matter what, the people of the Chaotian Temple should have died a long time ago!¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t the thing inside ownerless? I remember that when the black fog came suddenly, there should be a lot of divine abilities and martial arts left inside!¡±


    Because the appearance of the ruins of Chaotian Temple was very big, it attracted most of the demonic cultivators in the whole Cold Wind mountain range.


    There were even some disciples from orthodox sects who came from outside.

 Chapter 414 - Acquaintance?

    Chapter 414 Acquaintance?


    The whole Cold Wind mountain range became lively with the appearance of the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    Previously, only some demonic cultivators and vagabond cultivators who had no other choice would choose to enter the Cold Wind mountain range.


    This was because its environment was not only harsh, but there were also all kinds of evil ghosts and Devil Souls, and even a kind of creature known as a Yin Beast.


    These Yin Beasts were purely formed from Yin Qi, and there were some who were weak and some who were strong.


    The most important thing was that after these Yin Beasts were killed, they would turn into a ball of Yin Qi and dissipate. Nothing of value would be left behind.


    Therefore, many cultivators were especially annoyed by these Yin Beasts.


    Now that Chaotian Temple ruins had appeared, who knew how many wandering cultivators had been attracted. In the end, however, more than half of the cultivators would die here.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care about the ruins of Chaotian Temple for the time being.


    He was only slowly integrating his strength. He tested his limits step by step with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    This test was beneficial as he would not have to be so timid in battle.


    He would squeeze his potential to the limit and rely on passive recovery.


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s battle strategy.


    There was also the optimization of cultivation techniques, and the AI had also made progress.


    The first was the Emperor Coiling Scripture, a technique that was specially used to polish one¡¯s body.


    The Emperor Coiling Scripture was already outdated, and Zhou Feng no longer had a source of Malevolent Earth Qi to assist in cultivation, so he had not cultivated it for a long time.


    He could feel the Emperor Coiling Scripture¡¯s potential, and he had the heart to cultivate it but was powerless. Back then, he had relied on various passive skills to cultivate forcefully.


    It was already challenging, but it was tough for him to advance further now.


    Fortunately, the AI had dismantled some of the essence of the Emperor Coiling Scripture and then borrowed other techniques to create new cultivation techniques continuously.


    Moreover, this new cultivation technique did not require Zhou Feng to do it himself.


    The AI would analyze how to circulate the Blood Qi and how to absorb the Spiritual Qi. It would allow Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body to reach its optimal state before it was tempered.


    It would even divide his body into countless parts.


    Then, it would begin to improve the experiments one by one. Zhou Feng did not need to do anything, and the strength of his body would slowly increase.


    It was just like a hack.


    It was believed that as he collected more and more cultivation techniques, the AI would eventually create a cultivation technique that belonged solely to him.


    Other than the Emperor Coiling Scripture, the only other cultivation technique that had made progress was the Starseizer Steps.


    After all, the Starseizer Steps itself was an incomplete cultivation technique, and it was not very powerful.


    The AI relied on its supercomputing power to slowly optimize the Starseizer Steps.


    Also, the AI could assist when Zhou Feng used his divine power.


    In short, the AI¡¯s improvement to Zhou Feng was too great.


    ¡°It¡¯s almost time!¡±


    Zhou Feng also felt that the time was almost up.


    After being silent for so long, it was time for him to move out.


    It was a good time to take a look at the so-called Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    He could say that almost no one knew more about the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins than he did.


    It was because Blackie was a descendant of Chaotian Temple, and he had a dao token on him.


    This dao token was equivalent to the Chaotian Temple¡¯s inheritance.


    There was also a map of the Chaotian Temple, the area for refining pills, the area for refining artifacts, and the location of the cultivation techniques.


    There were records in it.


    Even the core formation of the Chaotian Temple was marked.


    If an ordinary person knew this information, they would immediately investigate the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    After all, this was the legacy of a super sect.


    If they could obtain a portion of the legacy, their path of cultivation would definitely be smoother.


    However, Zhou Feng did not do so. To him, this could be considered a fortuitous encounter.


    However, his greatest fortuitous encounter was the skill panel. He would reach the peak sooner or later with the skill panel.


    He could not forget the dangers behind him just because he saw benefits.


    It was just like how Zhou Feng never believed that someone would leave their legacy behind before they died and then look for a so-called fated person.


    If it were Zhou Feng, he would only give his inheritance and treasures to his descendants before his death.


    If he didn¡¯t have any descendants, he would give them to his best friend.


    If he didn¡¯t even have a friend, then he would be buried with them.


    Even if he died, he wouldn¡¯t benefit others.


    Of course, this was just Zhou Feng¡¯s personal opinion.


    He didn¡¯t know what the others were thinking, let alone the so-called burial ceremonies in this world.


    The most important thing was that he used Hexadirectional Calculation to predict good and bad luck.


    He realized that heading to the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins was actually a bad omen.


    That was why he did not immediately leave.


    Now that he was leaving, Zhou Feng¡¯s thought was that he would be lucky if he didn¡¯t lose his life.


    He only wanted peace, not anything else.


    ¡°Big Yellow, stay here and look after the cave abode.¡±


    Before Zhou Feng left, he left Big Yellow in the cave to look after it.


    Now that he had the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation, Big Yellow had lost his job again.


    Zhou Feng did not need Big Yellow¡¯s sense of smell and hearing in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Moreover, the cave abode was newly built. There were still many unknown flaws, so it was good that Big Yellow stayed to look after the cave abode.


    It was worth mentioning that Zhou Feng had already set up this place as a rebirth point during this process.


    Zhou Feng had once again experienced the pain of splitting his soul.


    However, there was also a guarantee.


    If Zhou Feng were accidentally killed, he would be able to be reborn in the cave abode.


    This place was much better than the previous rebirth point.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow¡¯s expression was indifferent. During this period of time, Big Yellow had begun to grow medicinal ingredients and refine pills.


    He didn¡¯t know why a hound liked to refine pills so much.


    After giving some instructions, Zhou Feng shook his head and left the cave abode.


    After Zhou Feng left, Big Yellow immediately pricked up his ears as if he was listening to whether Zhou Feng had really left.


    After realizing that he had really left, Big Yellow immediately took some pills out of the storage ring on his neck. If Zhou Feng were here, he would definitely recognize them.


    Weren¡¯t these the Spirit Nurturing Pills that were specially refined for spirit beasts?


    As long as this kind of pill was continuously fed to spirit beasts, the intelligence of the spirit beasts would eventually become higher.


    It also had the function of modifying the tongue.


    If a spirit beat ate many of them, they could even directly speak in human language.


    Under certain circumstances, it could also be considered a substitute for the Transformation Grass.


    Zhou Feng did not know that Big Yellow wanted to speak. For this reason, he had even secretly refined Spirit Nurturing Pills.


    But even if he knew, he would not care.


    If he spoke, then so be it!


    What was the big deal?


    After Zhou Feng left the cave abode, he was swift, and starlight accompanied his feet as he traversed through the dangerous Cold Wind mountain range.


    He used the Hexadirectional Calculation to deduce the good and bad luck with each step, so he did not encounter anything along the way.


    Even if there were danger ahead, he would avoid it at the first moment.


    Therefore, he did not waste much time and arrived at the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    ¡°There are actually so many people?¡¯


    There were numerous people in the vicinity, so Zhou Feng saw a lot of people from afar.


    ¡®Wait¡­¡¯


    The next second, Zhou Feng seemed to have seen an acquaintance.


    If he remembered correctly, that person should not have appeared here.

 Chapter 415 - Strange Bell Chimes

    Chapter 415 Strange Bell Chimes


    ¡®This person seems to be Holy Maiden Green Lotus?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned as he recalled her status. If he remembered correctly, when this woman was in Heavenly Star City, everyone called her Holy Maiden Green Lotus.


    ¡®How come this person is here? Is the attraction of the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins so great?¡¯


    The Green Lotus Sect was not close to this place at all.


    Speaking of which, he should find a time to return to Heavenly Star City.


    Back then, he had been forced to flee from Heavenly Star City and eventually escaped into the Southern Sea.


    The current him was no longer the same as before, and ordinary Divine Ability cultivators were nothing in his eyes.


    The mere Bai Clan simply could not contend with him.


    In the future, he would definitely have to leave the Southern Border. When he left the Southern Border, who knew when he would be able to return?


    Should he find some time to settle their grudges?


    The appearance of Holy Maiden Green Lotus could be considered a reminder to Zhou Feng.


    He could also go back and see how Li Rong was doing. She must have suffered a lot because of him.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was lost in myriad thoughts, but he swiftly snapped out of it.


    Boom!


    The group of people in front of him was planning to break through that layer of light curtain.


    At present, the Chaotian Temple was surrounded by a layer of light curtain, and everyone was blocked outside.


    After such a long time, there were almost no changes other than the building being a little shabby.


    Therefore, many people speculated that there must be a lot of good things inside.


    And it wasn¡¯t a good thing to just stand there foolishly.


    Therefore, some people who could not hold themselves back chose to make a move.


    ¡°Open it!


    ¡°Everyone, I think nobody wants to stand here and do nothing! Why don¡¯t we work together?


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Let¡¯s break this formation first, and then we¡¯ll rely on our own abilities. What do you think?¡± someone shouted, immediately arousing the enthusiasm of everyone present.


    They began to make their moves one after the other, wanting to break the formation first.


    However, some people still did not choose to make their moves. They just quietly watched and did not say anything.


    Zhou Feng was also one of them.


    He did not have the intention to make a move directly. Compared to the dangerous method of going in to explore, Zhou Feng preferred to wait outside.


    Most of the people present were demonic cultivators, and they were all greedy people. If they found any treasures, they would definitely fight.


    At that time, he could just take advantage of them!


    In the end, he wouldn¡¯t care even if he didn¡¯t take advantage of them.


    The main reason he came out this time was to fight.


    As long as he took more lives, the destiny power would increase rapidly, and the speed of acquiring passive skills would also be faster.


    However, just as Zhou Feng stood aside, the dao token in his storage ring began to vibrate.


    It even broke through space and jumped out of the storage ring.


    ¡°Look! That¡¯s¡­¡±


    ¡°What happened? What¡¯s that?¡±


    IIII


    It wasn¡¯t just the dao token in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand that had changed.


    The dao tokens on three people around him were also emitting dazzling light at the same time.


    What was going on?


    These four words appeared in everyone¡¯s minds.


    For a moment, the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins began to boil, and the light screen that blotted out the sun began to dissipate slowly. Then a bell rang leisurely.


    This bell sound was magical, making people unable to help but be intoxicated. Everyone seemed to have entered a state of enlightenment.


    They forgot everything, even forgetting where they were now.


    A nine-colored light shone in all directions.


    ¡®Something¡¯s wrong!¡¯


    When Zhou Feng had just entered this strange state, the AI instantly noticed that something was wrong and immediately reminded him.


    He woke up almost instantly with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    The moment he woke up, the bell chime sounded again.


    The bell chime was very urgent and even carried killing intent this time.


    ¡°Devil!¡±


    An echo sounded.


    At this time, everyone woke up.


    ¡°What happened? The bell just now¡­¡±


    ¡°Look! The light curtain has disappeared!¡±


    ¡°What? Go in and take a look!¡±


    The people who had just woken up hadn¡¯t even figured out what was going on.


    They found that the light curtain that had blocked their footsteps had disappeared without them knowing.


    Seeing this, some people did not think too much about it.


    Although the bell chimes were a little strange, the Cold Wind mountain range itself was full of bizarre things.


    It was better to go in first and see what treasures there were.


    What if others took the treasures away if they were too slow?


    These demonic cultivators were all daring people. Even though they knew that it was very risky to enter rashly now, risks were accompanied by opportunities. No one wanted to live in this Cold Wind mountain range for their entire lives.


    These demonic cultivators also had their dreams and goals.


    That was to kill their way out of the Cold Wind mountain range and snatch back a piece of territory from the three holy lands.


    Then, they would enjoy the support of mortals and low-level cultivators.


    ¡°Quickly, quickly!¡±


    ¡°Let me go in and take a look!¡±


    Zhou Feng watched as these people rushed in like a swarm of bees, and the uneasiness in his heart intensified.


    Looking at the quiet and ancient building, he didn¡¯t know why, but he felt a chill all over his body, and his hair stood on end.


    The result of using Hexadirectional Calculation was unknown.


    ¡®Forget it! I¡¯d better stand further away!¡¯


    Soon, he made a decision in his heart.


    The Chaotian Temple was like a giant mouth of the abyss, waiting for everyone to enter.


    There was no need to take the risk.


    Some people couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. Upon seeing the others enter one after another, the rest followed quickly.


    Only Zhou Feng was an exception. Instead of advancing, he retreated to a safer position.


    ¡°That person¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were eye-catching, so those who wanted to enter the Chaotian Temple immediately calmed down.


    Among them was Holy Maiden Green Lotus.


    ¡®Eh? That person¡­¡¯


    Wu Qingqing glanced at Zhou Feng and felt that he looked familiar. She was a little uncertain because Zhou Feng had changed too much compared to when they had been in Heavenly Star City.


    However, Wu Qingqing was still certain that Zhou Feng was the person she had encountered in Heavenly Star City.


    After all, Zhou Feng had caused a lot of trouble in Heavenly Star City.


    Before he left, he had even killed the Bai Clan¡¯s Dao Protector.


    Who would have thought that he would come to the Cold Wind mountain range now or that he had even broken through to the Divine Ability realm?


    Wu Qingqing thought for a moment and then moved.


    ¡°Eh? Qingqing? You are¡­¡±


    Wu Qingqing¡¯s movement instantly startled the two men beside her.


    The two men were also Divine Ability cultivators. From the looks of it, they seemed to be chasing after Wu Qingqing.


    Actually, when Wu Qingqing looked at him, Zhou Feng had already sensed it at the first moment.


    However, he did not have any reaction. He was not familiar with Wu Qingqing, anyway.


    They had only met once, so there was nothing much to say.


    However, Wu Qingqing took the initiative to walk this way, so he felt a little troubled.


    After all, there were still two people beside Wu Qingqing. Their faces betrayed their jealousy.


    ¡®I only hope that you won¡¯t force me to make a move¡­¡¯


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body rapidly circulated under the assistance of the AI, continuously tempering all his parts.

 Chapter 416 - The Smell of Green Tea

    Chapter 416 The Smell of Green Tea


    ¡°Do you still remember me?¡±


    Wu Qingqing acted as if she was very familiar with him. She walked to Zhou Feng¡¯s side and started chatting.


    What followed was a faint sandalwood fragrance.


    Zhou Feng seemed to feel that his surroundings had become more lively.


    This was an extraordinary feeling. Somehow, he seemed to have a good impression of Wu Qingqing? Was it because of her cultivation technique?


    He subconsciously felt that this kind of good impression was not normal, but he could not say that it was abnormal.


    ¡°I do remember you.¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Wu Qingqing calmly, then looked at the two men behind her.


    ¡°Then, can you tell me how you obtained this dao token?¡±


    Wu Qingqing did not seem to care about his indifference at all. Instead, there was a trace of eagerness in her eyes as she stared at him.


    It turned out that it was because of the dao token.


    The sudden change in the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins was definitely due to the gathering of four dao tokens. At the thought of this, Zhou Feng looked around subconsciously.


    He found that almost no one who had the dao token had entered the ruins of Chaotian Temple at the first moment.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng discovered that he and the others who possessed the dao medallion had unknowingly been surrounded.


    Clearly, Wu Qingqing was the one who had noticed this.


    In addition, she had met Zhou Feng once before, which was why she had come forward to investigate.


    The Green Lotus Sect¡¯s legacy technique was called Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique.


    This technique had a self-evident use, which was to increase one¡¯s charm and improve one¡¯s appearance.


    That¡¯s right! You read it right!


    Simply put, this cultivation technique was to make people more beautiful and attractive.


    But why was it called the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique?


    Actually, it was because the founder of the Green Lotus Sect had discovered that one¡¯s emotions and desires were a mighty force.


    Especially those born extraordinary, whether it was extreme sadness or extreme anger, those intense emotions would more or less increase one¡¯s own strength.


    Thus, the founder of the Green Lotus Sect began to attempt to control this power.


    The most unforgettable thing in the world was love, especially when one was young. Other emotions were far less profound than love.


    After that, the embryonic form of the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique was created.


    As long as one cultivated the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique, not only would one¡¯s charm increase day by day, but even one¡¯s appearance would slowly become peerless in the world.


    This would definitely attract countless wild bees and butterflies.


    There was also the most peerless one. If a woman cultivated the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique, once she lost her virginity, all of her cultivation would be converted into pure Enlightenment Qi.


    The so-called Enlightenment Qi was something that could assist one in comprehending divine abilities.


    Due to the various reasons mentioned above, a woman who cultivated the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique would have countless suitors.


    Moreover, she would be a true target of wooing. At least on the surface, because only by voluntarily losing her virginity would she be able to convert the Enlightenment Qi. Once there were more suitors, they would slowly find a suitable person no matter how high their horizons were.


    For a woman who cultivated the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding, it would definitely be the most unforgettable once she fell in love.


    And once she lost it, it would also be the most unforgettable.


    Love was the most unforgettable, but it was also the thing that could not withstand the waves.


    Countless women went from joy to despair in just a few years.


    After all, this was the world of cultivation. All the cultivators were trying their best to increase their cultivation.


    And once their cultivation reached a certain level, only people in the same realm could understand each other.


    Because the more they cultivated, the less human the cultivator was.


    But if two people fell in love, they would definitely be unable to control themselves.


    Once they were unable to control themselves, the other party would obtain the Enlightenment Qi, and their realm would definitely increase significantly.


    As for the woman who cultivated the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding, she would become a mortal.


    The difference between a cultivator and a mortal was like an abyss.


    Changing one¡¯s heart was only a matter of time.


    Finally, despair truly began.


    In such a desperate state of mind, the power of the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding would be revealed.


    This was because this state of mind was close to the legendary great oblivion. Once one started cultivating again, it was no exaggeration to say that rapid progress would only be the most basic.


    Moreover, the determination of female cultivators was also the most terrifying.


    After all, those who were abandoned would definitely have thoughts of taking revenge on the other party.


    They even wanted to ask the other party why under such a terrifying cultivation momentum.


    One could imagine how terrifying this woman who cultivated the Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique would become.


    This was simply equivalent to an evil technique that specialized in torturing couples.


    For this reason, many sects also joined forces to cut off this Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique.


    After all, the mentality of the woman who eventually cultivated it to great success would be distorted. There had even been a great empress who had massacred all men in the vicinity.


    However, this Emotion-Forgetting Heart-Grinding Technique was eventually passed down, and they hid in this remote place on the Southern Border.


    The name of the sect was even changed from the Forgetfulness Sect to the Green Lotus Sect.


    And all of this was only known to the Sect Leader of the Green Lotus Sect.


    Of course, it was a little too far-fetched just


    now.


    Zhou Feng was utterly indifferent to Wu Qingqing¡¯s fervent gaze. He had been using Hexadirectional Calculation to calculate the good and bad through the AI.


    ¡°Hey, kid! Qingqing is asking you a question!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Are you deaf?¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng being so unresponsive, the two flower guardians behind Wu Qingqing were displeased.


    Their goddess had already spoken like this, so shouldn¡¯t Zhou Feng give an answer?


    Even if he wasn¡¯t willing to say it, he should at least politely refuse!


    Wu Qingqing looked at Zhou Feng, who was expressionless and immediately interrupted the two people behind her, ¡°Forget it. I was a little rude. Such a private matter is naturally not something that can be casually revealed.¡±


    An embarrassed smile appeared on her face.


    ¡°You already said it was a private matter. Why are you still saying this? Isn¡¯t this intentional?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately sensed a hint of green tea and spoke without mercy.


    ¡®What the h*ll? How did this dao token come about? This kind of question obviously involved some secrets.


    ¡°Am I very close to you?


    ¡®What kind of forced face do you have to ask such a question?¡¯


    Zhou Feng and Wu Qingqing had only met once, and they didn¡¯t even have a friendship.


    ¡®Do you think that you can use the two idiots behind you to test me like this?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was not used to this bad habit at


    all.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I was rude!¡±


    Facing the merciless Zhou Feng, Wu Qingqing apologized again and even bowed slightly.


    She looked like she was really embarrassed.


    However, Wu Qingqing had a completely different face in her heart.


    ¡®This person is so difficult to deal with, and he looks very confident. Could it be that he has some kind of trump card?¡¯


    Wu Qingqing no longer had any thoughts of probing.


    Initially, her probing should have been very safe.


    Given her appearance and the charm of her cultivation technique, there should not be many men who could reject her.


    Moreover, even if someone could ignore her charm, including the two flower guardians,


    there were a total of three Divine Ability cultivators by her side.


    Zhou Feng was alone, so he should at least give her some face.


    However, Zhou Feng was so unyielding that Wu Qingqing wanted to retreat.


    The Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins were her goal, not to make enemies.

 Chapter 417 - Simply a Fiend

    Chapter 417 Simply a Fiend


    ¡°Why did you ask me about the origin of the dao token? What do you know?¡±


    Although Wu Qingqing was already thinking of retreating, Zhou Feng had no intention of letting Wu Qingqing go.


    He continued to ask, and his tone gradually turned cold.


    The situation seemed to have reversed.


    Some people were also interested in what was happening there and began to move over slowly.


    Among them were the three people who had dao tokens with Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Hey, kid! How dare you! What are you doing?¡±


    ¡°Hmph! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Wu Qingqing frowned slightly, but the two flower guardians were already getting impatient.


    ¡®If you don¡¯t want to say it, then don¡¯t say it!


    ¡®What¡¯s going on now? Directly turning the tables? You¡¯re interrogating her instead? ¡®You¡¯re simply too arrogant!¡¯


    This was simply the perfect opportunity for these two flower guardians to show off.


    These two people were very clear about Wu Qingqing.


    She came from a small sect, but her strength wasn¡¯t ordinary at all.


    Moreover, her appearance and temperament weren¡¯t inferior to the beauties of some holy lands.


    If they could perform well in front of the beauty this time, they might be able to make the beauty fall in love with them in an instant. At the same time, they might be able to leave this damned place as soon as possible.


    These two flower protectors had actually been feeling a little flustered from the very beginning That strange bell sound had made these two people think of some bad things.


    They had also just woken up from their shock. Why had they listened to Wu Qingqing¡¯s words and entered this Cold Wind mountain range?


    This Cold Wind mountain range was famous for its strangeness.


    The two of them were only descendants of the two small clans outside.


    They were ordinary Divine Ability cultivators, simply not a match for those crazy demonic cultivators in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    ¡°Speak!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not pay attention to the two simple-minded people behind her. He only stared at Wu Qingqing.


    His intuition told him that this person in front of him seemed to know a lot of things.


    ¡°Aiya! You brat, really¡­¡±


    One of the two flower guardians immediately flew into a rage as Zhou Feng ignored them.


    Zhou Feng was looking down on them.


    On the other hand, the other flower guardian sensed the strange atmosphere around them and did not dare to speak for a moment.


    ¡°Shut up!¡± Zhou Feng was also a little annoyed.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into two ropes and instantly bound the two silly men behind Wu Qingqing.


    The sudden change immediately made the two of them want to struggle.


    However, the rope condensed from the Great Void Primordial Qi, and its terrifying corrosive power consumed a large chunk of their flesh and blood.


    They would die!


    If they continued to move or resist, they would really die!


    The two simple-minded people smelled the scent of death. The Great Void Primordial Qi would consume them as long as they said one more word or moved.


    That was a method that did not even leave any residue.


    ¡°Devil!¡±


    ¡°Fiend!¡±


    These two people looked at Zhou Feng with terrified eyes.


    Just what kind of monster was this person? They could not even resist and struggle in the blink of an eye.


    Yet, they were all Divine Ability cultivators.


    Although the divine abilities passed down from their clan might not be that powerful, they weren¡¯t something that could be easily trampled upon.


    The gazes of the surrounding onlookers instantly became much more restrained upon witnessing the outcome of these two simple-minded people.


    There were even some people who even held their breaths.


    This was because the strength that Zhou Feng displayed was too terrifying.


    The aura that he had displayed before was just that of an ordinary Divine Ability cultivator.


    But now, it was as deep as a prison, and every breath he took seemed to carry thunder.


    ¡°I-I don¡¯t know! I just want to find out some information about the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins. After all, we aren¡¯t acquainted¡­¡±


    Facing Zhou Feng, who had displayed his terrifying strength, Wu Qingqing looked as if she was frightened.


    Not only did she take a few steps back, but her voice also became softer and softer.


    ¡°One more step, that¡¯s when you¡¯ll lose your life!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not care about this at all.


    When Wu Qingqing looked pitiful, there seemed to be something that interfered with his judgment.


    However, it was suppressed by the AI in an instant.


    Therefore, Wu Qingqing¡¯s appearance was definitely an act.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? The bewitching technique isn¡¯t working? Oh no! I seem to have been careless!


    Looking at the still cold and heartless Zhou Feng, Wu Qingqing felt a little anxious.


    This was the first time she had failed to use the bewitching technique.


    The bewitching technique might not sound like much, but it was a genuine divine ability.


    This was a divine ability passed down by Reverend Green Lotus. Cultivation required extremely high aptitude and belonged to the type of divine ability that could only be comprehended but not spoken of.


    And once one entered the sect, they would be able to bewitch others without anyone noticing


    This was not one of those low-grade techniques that could bewitch the hearts of others. It was just using the power of a powerful soul to suppress the souls of others forcefully.


    The techniques were simply too crude.


    But this bewitching technique was the most primitive type of bewitching. Even cultivators with extremely high levels of cultivation were easy to fall for it.


    Moreover, they wouldn¡¯t think that they had been bewitched but that they had gone soft-hearted for a moment.


    According to Wu Qingqing¡¯s thoughts, she wanted to use the bewitching technique to make Zhou Feng lower his guard.


    Even if it were just for a moment, that would be enough time for her to escape.


    That¡¯s right! Escape!


    The development of the matter had already exceeded her imagination; This place was really too dangerous.


    It was better to leave this place first and slowly plot in the future.


    As for the two simple-minded people, they were just tools in Wu Qingqing¡¯s eyes.


    She was someone who was looking for the right person. How could a few tools tie her down?


    However, all of this had turned into a bubble. Zhou Feng was not affected by the bewitching technique at all.


    Moreover, his attitude was extremely tough, and his strength was unfathomable.


    ¡°Three!¡±


    ¡°Two!¡±


    Seeing that Wu Qingqing still had no intention to explain, Zhou Feng did not continue to ask.


    He just quietly counted down from three.


    He did not give Wu Qingqing any time to think at all.


    The gazes from the side also became playful, and the gazes that looked at Wu Qingqing became fiery.


    No one would doubt whether Zhou Feng would dare to make a move or whether he would make a move.


    ¡°You,¡±


    Seeing this, one of the two idiots behind Wu Qingqing wanted to plead on her behalf.


    But just as he opened his mouth, the Great Void Primordial Qi acted.


    That person¡¯s mouth was directly worn off, along with a mouthful of teeth.


    Only a bloody mess was left, and eye-piercing blood dripped down.


    ¡°One!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s countdown ended, and the Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a battle armor!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s black eyes were ice-cold, and his long hair danced in the wind. An extremely oppressive aura erupted like a flood.


    ¡°I¡¯ll speak!¡±


    Wu Qingqing gnashed her teeth and chose to lie down. The pressure that Zhou Feng had given her was too great.


    She had no way to continue hiding it.


    Wu Qingqing had never thought that she would be forced to such an extent.


    Moreover, the person who forced her was someone she had once looked down on.


    At that time, Zhou Feng had even touched the boundary of the Divine Ability realm. He had just been an ant in her eyes.


    But now¡­

 Chapter 418 - Connate Numinous Treasure

    Chapter 418 Connate Numinous Treasure


    Under the immense pressure from Zhou Feng, Wu Qingqing could only tell him everything she knew.


    The Green Lotus Sect¡¯s predecessor was the Forgetfulness Sect, a sect from the same period as the Chaotian Temple, so she knew some secrets about the Chaotian Temple.


    The Chaotian Temple was different from the Forgetfulness Sect.


    The Chaotian Temple was an authentic Daoist sect with countless divine abilities and arts under its wing.


    There was also the Chaotian Temple¡¯s sect-guarding treasure!


    Wu Qingqing had traveled thousands of miles to come here for this treasure.


    ¡°Treasure!?¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s a treasure in the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins?¡±


    After listening to Wu Qingqing¡¯s explanation, the onlookers¡¯ breathing became heavier.


    A sect-guarding treasure was a good thing that was one level higher than a dao artifact.


    The birth of sect-guarding artifacts was far more difficult than that of a dao artifact. Almost 90% of the sect-guarding artifacts failed to be refined.


    They were all born and nurtured. Heaven and earth wasted a lot of time nurturing them bit by bit.


    It could be said that sect-guarding artifacts were the embodiment of laws.


    Even those Grandmaster Artifact Refiners could only imitate these sect-guarding artifacts. Their power was much weaker than real sect-guarding artifacts.


    That¡¯s right! This treasure was previously known as a connate numinous treasure!


    Its various powers were only recorded in a few words in a book.


    After all, activating a treasure required a corresponding level of cultivation. The cultivation of the Divine Ability realm was at most just a trace of the power of the treasure.


    To be able to cultivate to the Divine Ability realm, everyone naturally knew how precious a treasure was.


    Who would have thought that there was a treasure in the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins?


    Speaking up to this point, Wu Qingqing looked at the onlookers and then looked at Zhou Feng.


    That appearance seemed to be saying that the following information would be even more explosive. Should she speak to Zhou Feng alone?


    ¡®As long as¡­


    Wu Qingqing began to plan in her heart.


    Now that the information about the treasure had been leaked, this had already become Wu Qingqing¡¯s protective talisman from a certain point of view.


    After all, besides Zhou Feng, there were many people gathered here. In order to obtain more information about the treasure, these people would definitely not let Wu Qingqing die.


    At the very least, they had to squeeze out all of Wu Qingqing¡¯s value.


    And once Zhou Feng wanted to monopolize the secret of the treasure, then the others would definitely intervene.


    At that time, she would be able to think of a way to escape.


    In fact, Wu Qingqing still had a few trump cards in her hands, but she had never used them.


    Her intuition told her that if she made any strange moves, she would definitely be the one to die.


    Those trump cards in her hands seemed to have no effect in front of Zhou Feng.


    It was precisely this strange intuition that made Wu Qingqing not dare to act rashly. Otherwise, she would not have revealed these secrets so easily.


    In fact, Wu Qingqing¡¯s intuition was very accurate.


    From the beginning until now, the AI had been using Hexadirectional Calculation to collect all kinds of information continuously.


    Not only on Wu Qingqing, but even on everyone around Zhou Feng.


    The longer one stayed near Zhou Feng, the more it meant that there were no secrets in his eyes.


    Once all the information about someone was collected, Zhou Feng would have the advantage in the following battle. As such, he didn¡¯t mind others watching them.


    ¡°Continue!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t do anything else but let Wu Qingqing continue.


    Seeing that he didn¡¯t fall for it at all, Wu Qingqing had no choice but to continue.


    ¡°The treasure of Chaotian Temple is a dao sword!


    ¡°Legend has it that this sword is made of nine kilos of Red Gold Divine Iron, Penta-Colored Divine Earth has been used as a furnace, and Black Dragon Skin as coating. The Nona-Netherworld Earth-Fire is made of molten iron, and the Heaven Pass has been used in the south as support. It contains 24 general mantras and 24 calligraphy talismans¡­


    ¡°It was worshiped for 1,000 years before it became a treasure!¡±


    The Chaotian Temple¡¯s sword treasure was an artificial treasure.


    Although it was slightly inferior to an innate treasure raised by nature, its power was extraordinary. At the same time, it had been worshiped by Chaotian Temple for countless years.


    It had long been born with sentience and was the Chaotian Temple¡¯s inheritance.


    In other words, as long as one obtained the Chaotian Sword, it was equivalent to obtaining the Chaotian Temple¡¯s inheritance.


    Moreover, because the Chaotian Sword contained astonishing power, they could borrow its power to communicate with heaven and earth and slay demons and devils as long as one held it.


    However, the prerequisite was to obtain the Chaotian Sword¡¯s approval.


    As for the four dao tokens, Wu Qingqing also knew their origins.


    Sensing the increasingly restless atmosphere in the surroundings, Wu Qingqing did not stop spilling out all the juicy news.


    ¡°That dao tokens are the keys that the Chaotian Temple placed outside before it disappeared!


    ¡°The Chaotian Temple Master had calculated that the Chaotian Temple would definitely reappear in the future. These four dao tokens were left behind to open the Chaotian Temple¡¯s external area¡­ ¡°This was to prevent the Chaotian Temple¡¯s inheritance from being lost. When the Chaotian Temple reappears, it will also be the time for the Chaotian Temple to choose its inheritor!¡±


    Some people couldn¡¯t help but want to rush into the Chaotian Temple upon saying that.


    If what Wu Qingqing said was true, they would instantly become the only inheritor disciple of Chaotian Temple as long as they obtained the Chaotian Sword¡¯s recognition.


    Moreover, this was completely dependent on destiny, not cultivation strength.


    Wouldn¡¯t they have profited greatly if one were careless and obtained the Chaotian Sword¡¯s recognition?


    ¡°Moreover, I heard that apart from being the keys, these four dao tokens also contain a top-tier divine ability¡­¡±


    Wu Qingqing glanced away unnaturally upon revealing that.


    Zhou Feng instantly felt countless scorching gazes focused on him.


    The other three people who had dao tokens also received the same treatment.


    Compared to the distant Chaotian Sword, the dao token in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand was more authentic and easier to obtain. After all, there was only one sword, but there were four dao tokens.


    ¡°You¡¯re lying!¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly realized that Wu Qingqing was lying. Thanks to the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation, he was a human-shaped lie detector.


    It was impossible for anyone to lie in front of him.


    ¡°What are you waiting for? Everyone! Compared to the Chaotian Sword, it¡¯s still a top-tier divine ability!¡±


    Wu Qingqing took out a talisman in an instant, and its power circulated throughout her body.


    At the same time, a huge shield covered Wu Qingqing¡¯s entire body. She didn¡¯t have many things to reveal, so she had to strike first to gain the upper hand and even told a little lie at the end in order to avoid being ground to death.


    These four dao tokens contained a top-tier divine ability, but each dao token only contained 1/4 of said divine ability.


    One had to combine four into one to obtain the complete divine ability inheritance.


    However, Wu Qingqing had said that each dao token contained a top-tier divine ability to create chaos.


    This also aroused the greed of other cultivators. After all, if a dao token only contained 1/4 of a divine ability, and one had to combine four dao tokens to obtain a harvest, the risk would be too great.


    The cultivators in the Cold Wind mountain range were all old foxes. They wouldn¡¯t act rashly without sufficient benefits.


    However, if it were four top-tier divine abilities, the benefits would be great enough.


    These reasons were enough for these old foxes to act.


    Just as Wu Qingqing revealed a smile, that smile froze in the next second.

 Chapter 419 - Flee!

    Chapter 419 Flee!


    A huge tentacle pierced through Wu Qingqing¡¯s chest.


    This huge tentacle was formed from the Great Void Primordial Qi, and the talisman in Wu Qingqing¡¯s hand did not have any protective effect at all.


    From the very beginning, Zhou Feng had secretly condensed the Great Void Primordial Qi into thin threads and wrapped them around Wu Qingqing¡¯s body.


    This talisman could only block attacks from the outside. How could it block attacks from the inside?


    After the previous integration, Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding of the Great Void Primordial Qi had become even more profound.


    Especially after learning that the AI could assist in soul traveling through the great void, his understanding of the Great Void Dao had become even more profound.


    After his understanding of the great void became even more profound, he quickly discovered that even if the connection of the Great Void Primordial Qi was broken, he could still control it for a short period.


    Although he did not know what trump card Wu Qingqing had used just now, she could sever the connection between the Great Void Primordial Qi in an instant.


    However, Zhou Feng still had the ability to kill Wu Qingqing.


    ¡°Oh? Not dead?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned because he realized that Wu Qingqing was not dead.


    That huge tentacle had pierced through Wu Qingqing¡¯s chest and, coupled with the Great Void Primordial Qi¡¯s ability to destroy, Wu Qingqing¡¯s life force should have been extinguished.


    Still, Wu Qingqing¡¯s life force had dropped to a very weak level, but it did not completely disappear.


    Was this a method of faking death? He might have been deceived if he did not have the AI because this was too real.


    Nonetheless, Wu Qingqing¡¯s actions were completely under his control.


    ¡°No!¡±


    The originally lifeless Wu Qingqing seemed to have sensed Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.


    All of a sudden, it was as if she was a zombie as she jumped up.


    In the end, the Great Void Primordial Qi still wiped her out.


    This change of events caused the nearby people who were just about to make a move to stiffen.


    The scene instantly entered a state of silence.


    ¡®Too fierce! Just where did this person come from? Why is he so fierce!?¡¯


    This was the thought in the minds of everyone present.


    He was clearly only a Divine Ability cultivator, but why was his strength so exaggerated? The power circulating within Wu Qingqing¡¯s talisman obviously came from a Dragon Transformation expert.


    Even so, Wu Qingqing still died tragically at Zhou Feng¡¯s hands.


    He had even seen through her method of faking her death.


    No one present dared to act rashly.


    Among them, the most afraid ones were none other than Wu Qingqing¡¯s two followers.


    Now that the beauty was dead, it was simply impossible to risk their lives for Wu Qingqing.


    They only hoped that Zhou Feng would spare their dog lives at that moment.


    After Zhou Feng stunned everyone, he directly said in a cold tone, ¡°Hand over your dao tokens!¡±


    That¡¯s right! He was also very interested in the so-called top-tier divine abilities: the more divine abilities, the better.


    No one would despise divine abilities. Even if it was a very weak divine ability, it was still a divine ability.


    The more divine abilities one comprehended, the thicker one¡¯s accumulation would be.


    This would be of great help to one¡¯s future realm.


    Zhou Feng had overheard this saying by accident.


    He had an AI that could deduce and optimize, so he would need it as long as it was a divine ability.


    ¡°Here you go!¡±


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s request was excessive, practically daylight robbery, there were still two people who did not hesitate and threw the dao tokens into Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    Upon seeing this, the remaining person hesitated for a moment before also choosing to hand over the dao token to Zhou Feng.


    Being tactful! This was definitely a very good advantage.


    The longer one lived, the farther one would go on the path of cultivation.


    The cultivators in front of him weren¡¯t young people who had just stepped onto the path of cultivation.


    They naturally knew very well in their hearts what to choose.


    ¡°You can leave now!¡±


    After Zhou Feng put away the dao tokens, he did not start a massacre. Instead, he let these people leave.


    Ever since he had obtained the AI, his temper had improved.


    At the same time, he had greater confidence that he would not kill people as easily as before.


    Killing people in anger because of a small matter was actually a very fierce thing.


    The current Zhou Feng was confident that even if all these people in front of him were added together, they would not be able to cause him any harm.


    However, other than that simple-minded person who had once wanted to attack him, Wu Qingqing, he naturally could not let this go.


    After hearing Zhou Feng¡¯s words, the demonic cultivators and the onlookers quickly left.


    Zhou Feng was like a venomous insect or a ferocious beast, and no one dared to get close.


    ¡®Why hasn¡¯t there been any sound from the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins until now?¡¯


    Currently, most of his attention was on the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    Ever since the group of people entered the temple, there had been almost no movement in the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    There had been no movement at all until now.


    Strange! It was really strange!


    Wu Qingqing had said earlier that a connate numinous treasure was in the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    The connate numinous treasure was called the Chaotian Sword. The power of the whole temple forged it, and its refinement had taken 1,000 years.


    Moreover, the Chaotian Sword had long possessed intelligence.


    Zhou Feng speculated that the Chaotian Temple looked no different from before, likely because the Chaotian Sword was in operation.


    There was a limit to the lifespan of humans, but the lifespan of a connate numinous treasure that had become a spirit was extremely long.


    As long as there were no accidents, the lifespan of a connate numinous treasure was at least a few thousand years.


    If it were well maintained, it would not be impossible to pass it down for 10,000 years.


    If this hypothesis was true, why would Chaotian Temple do this?


    After all, the Chaotian Sword was not just an ordinary connate numinous treasure but also the Chaotian Temple¡¯s sword of inheritance.


    Why didn¡¯t they throw the Chaotian Sword out to look for the fated person when they were in danger?


    Instead, they made four dao tokens and allowed them to be spread out.


    If they had the ability to spread the four dao tokens out, there was no reason why they couldn¡¯t throw the Chaotian Sword out of the Cold Wind mountain range.


    And why did they spend so much effort to leave behind all kinds of legends and lure the descendants of those who obtained the dao tokens to come to the Cold Wind mountain range a few thousand years later?


    Thanks to the AI¡¯s supercomputing power, Zhou Feng immediately came up with many suspicious points.


    Moreover, Hexadirectional Calculation kept reminding him of the great danger.


    ¡°Someone is coming out!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s really someone! Wait! Something doesn¡¯t seem right!¡±


    ¡°This person is¡­¡±


    After waiting for a while, a few figures suddenly appeared in everyone¡¯s sight.


    However, there seemed to be something wrong with these people.


    These people¡¯s clothes were tattered, their eyes were lifeless, and their bodies looked withered. There were even strange black stripes on their faces.


    When they saw these people, many of them felt a chill down their backs, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s palms were sweating, which was a rare sight.


    ¡®Retreat!¡¯


    In a breath¡¯s time, he made a decision.


    Stepping on the starlight, he left the place in the blink of an eye.

 Chapter 420 - Bean Soldiers

    Chapter 420 Bean Soldiers


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden departure shocked some people.


    Since someone as powerful as Zhou Feng had been scared away, there must be something wrong with the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins in their eyes.


    Therefore, most people also ran away subconsciously.


    However, they were not as fast as Zhou Feng, nor were they as bold as he was. There was danger everywhere in the Cold Wind mountain range, so they had to be careful with every step they took.


    One person saw Zhou Feng running away so quickly and subconsciously ignored him. However, the next second, this person was unlucky. A venomous snake and Yin Beast suddenly jumped out from under his feet and immediately bit him.


    The terrifying venom caused the wound on this person¡¯s foot to fester instantly.


    ¡°Be careful!¡±


    The others were shocked and fled even more carefully upon seeing this.


    ¡°Hmph! He was actually scared away!¡±


    Some people fled, while others naturally did not care.


    For those demonic cultivators who were used to wandering around the blade, any danger could not compare to the temptation of treasures.


    Not only were these demonic cultivators not afraid at all, but they even wanted to capture these people who came out of Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins and interrogate them properly.


    However, those who held this thought quickly regretted it.


    They saw a person with a withered body floating in front of a demonic cultivator like a ghost.


    He was still mumbling something in his mouth.


    ¡°Demon! Demon!¡±


    The hair on the one-eyed demonic cultivator¡¯s body instantly stood on end because a terrifying aura was coming right at him.


    ¡°You!¡±


    The one-eyed demonic cultivator¡¯s eyes widened, seemingly in disbelief.


    The skinny person in front of him continuously spewed out black mist from his mouth and nose.


    The moment this black mist touched the one-eyed demonic cultivator, the one-eyed demonic cultivator felt the Blood Qi in his body begin to wither while his soul weakened.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The one-eyed demonic cultivator let out a roar in the face of danger, and a vicious power surrounded his body.


    However, in just one second, the skinny man had directly self-detonated!


    The strange black mist was like gangrene attached to the bone, wrapping around the one-eyed demonic cultivator.


    After a few sounds, the one-eyed demonic cultivator resembled the skinny man.


    This scene made many people shudder.


    What happened? How could there be such a thing in the Chaotian Temple?


    It was likely that the people who had just entered the Chaotian Temple had all become neither humans nor ghosts.


    This time, no one dared to linger there any longer.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fortune gradually turned from great danger to great fortune the further away he was.


    ¡®It¡¯s really dangerous!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt relieved.


    It was better not to go to the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins. Although connate numinous treasures were tempting, his life was still more important.


    Moreover, this time, he didn¡¯t reap nothing.


    Not only did he learn some of the Chaotian Temple¡¯s secrets, but he also obtained a top-tier divine ability.


    Zhou Feng had already put four dao tokens together.


    As expected, there was a divine ability hidden within these dao tokens, and it was directly passed down through divine sense.


    After all the information about this divine ability was transmitted into Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, the four dao tokens immediately shattered.


    This was a one-time-use divine ability inheritance.


    Such a torrent of information did not affect him under the AI¡¯s control.


    Zhou Feng soon learned this divine ability¡¯s name.


    ¡°Bean Soldiers? It¡¯s actually this divine ability?¡±


    Zhou Feng was somewhat shocked in his heart upon learning this divine ability¡¯s name.


    After all, in his impression, this Bean Soldiers Ability was like spreading beans that would directly transform into dao soldiers to assist in battle.


    As for the specifics, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t investigate it right away.


    It was better to first return to the cave abode.


    It was safer to comprehend divine abilities in the cave abode with a formation surrounding


    it.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng hurried with all his might and returned to the cave abode shortly after.


    ¡°Big Yellow, I¡¯m going into seclusion. Take good care of the cave!¡±


    Under Big Yellow¡¯s astonished gaze, Zhou Feng went straight to the seclusion room.


    After calming himself down a little, he could not wait to start studying this Bean Soldiers Ability. It turned out that this Bean Soldiers Ability was actually one of the 36 Great Divine Abilities.


    It was just that it wasn¡¯t the original version but had been modified by the Chaotian Temple and was more suitable for the disciples¡¯ cultivation.


    Zhou Feng was already used to this.


    The cultivators in this world seemed to like improving and optimizing all kinds of cultivation techniques.


    Only mediocre people and pieces of trash would cling to the original cultivation technique and not let it go.


    As long as it was a sect or cultivator with a little bit of ambition, they would choose to try to improve the cultivation technique to make it more suitable for themselves.


    It was precisely because of this culture and habit that there were many versions of the same divine ability.


    Moreover, there was no strong or weak one in each version. It all depended on the practitioner.


    ¡®I see¡­¡¯


    In a short while, Zhou Feng was immersed in


    it.


    Bean Soldiers were actually an art of refining dao soldiers.


    In fact, it didn¡¯t have to be soybeans. One could use other items instead.


    The key was the refining and nurturing method.


    The refining method wasn¡¯t mentioned in detail because everyone used a general version.


    What needed to be paid attention to was the nurturing method. As long as large sects refined dao soldiers, they only needed to worship them in the main hall of the sect. The incense aura that the sect had accumulated over the years would be able to infect the dao weapons.


    Once the dao weapons that were infected by the incense aura entered battle, not only would they have extremely high intelligence, but they would even cooperate and form battle formations.


    Other than that, they could also invite the seniors of the sect to possess the dao weapons.


    If they were not disciples of large sects, they would also have other nurturing methods.


    The most typical method was to find a suitable Earth Vein and use its energy to nurture it.


    Dao soldiers nurtured by the Earth Vein¡¯s energy would have thick Earth Qi to protect their bodies.


    Not only were they powerful in battle, but their defense was also outstanding.


    Their weaknesses were that they could not fly and were not flexible enough.


    One could also use the energy of Spirit, Water, and Yin Veins to nurture them.


    Finally, if one still could not find an Earth Vein to nourish it, they could also set up formations and gather the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to nourish it.


    In short, there were many ways to nurture dao soldiers. The ways of nurturing dao soldiers had long been different.


    Therefore, this divine ability had a huge difference between upper and lower limits.


    When the strong used it, they could directly fight against ten people by themselves. With a casual throw, they would win against an army of 10,000 horses.


    However, when used by the weak, it would be a joke. Not only would it not have any effect, but it would also waste their own energy.


    It had to be said that this attack was indeed powerful. Apart from the huge difference between the upper and lower limits, it was also very powerful.


    Once it was successfully refined and entered battle, one would not need to waste even the slightest bit of their divine power. It would also not consume one¡¯s soul power.


    It was almost an independent aid. Moreover, it was absolutely loyal and did not need to be guarded against.


    Even if they were damaged, they wouldn¡¯t cause any damage to the main body. The only problem was that it would be a bit troublesome to re-refine them.


    The most terrifying thing was that as long as they were refined for a long time, these dao soldiers could become guardian generals.


    Almost all of the ancient sects knew this secret.


    Who wouldn¡¯t be afraid of a guardian general that had been refined for 10,000 years!?

 Chapter 421 - The Demonic Cultivators Feast

    Chapter 421 The Demonic Cultivators¡¯ Feast


    All in all, the Bean Soldiers Ability had great potential and was worth developing.


    ¡°Spirit beans?¡±


    From this divine ability, Zhou Feng had also obtained a method to cultivate spirit beans.


    Although Bean Soldiers could refine many things into dao soldiers and was very useful, there was naturally a reason for its name Bean Soldiers.


    A spirit bean was a very special kind of bean.


    They were very attractive to spirit beasts, and at the same time, they were easier to withstand the refinement of various powers.


    Moreover, they were simple and fast to cultivate and were the perfect vessels for turning beans into soldiers.


    The only drawback should be that dao soldiers refined from spirit beans didn¡¯t have the potential to become guardian generals.


    Refining a guardian general was a complicated and difficult task.


    ¡°AI, immediately optimize the Bean Soldiers Ability! Also, analyze the cultivation method of the spirit beans!¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally couldn¡¯t slowly study it himself. He handed everything over to the AI to complete.


    After all, this kind of thing was exactly what the AI was best at.


    Without saying anything, the AI automatically began to analyze this divine ability.


    At the same time, it began to try to optimize other divine abilities and techniques.


    After all, Bean Soldiers was a top-notch divine ability, and its principles were very worthy of reference.


    The AI had even begun to try to incorporate the refining method into the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical strength had not increased for a long time, and he might be able to use this opportunity to increase it greatly.


    ¡®Hmm¡­ I might as well improve the cave abode¡¯s facilities.¡¯


    After leaving everything to the AI, he could not help but feel a little empty.


    He might as well not enter seclusion. Instead, he took advantage of this free time to renovate the cave abode properly.


    It just so happened that he could plant a few more medicinal herbs and use them to refine pills.


    As the Yin-Absorbing Spirit Trees continued to transform Yin Qi into Spiritual Qi, coupled with the Spirit Gathering Formation, they exerted their effects.


    The Spiritual Qi in the cave abode became denser and denser, and even some of the soil was converted into spirit soil.


    This was a good opportunity to farm. After all, this was more or less an output.


    It was not to the extent of sitting around and eating mountains. The later one cultivated, the more they desired resources.


    According to the Alls analysis, Zhou Feng¡¯s earlier lifestyle had been too casual, resulting in the accumulation of many impurities in his body.


    This was because those who had stepped into the cultivation path would hardly eat ordinary things after starting to cultivate.


    Instead, they would feed on all kinds of spiritual items. Spirit rice was the most common spiritual item.


    Even the most ordinary spirit rice contained a large amount of Spiritual Qi.


    By constantly eating things that were full of Spiritual Qi, one¡¯s body would gradually be transformed by Spiritual Qi. Some impurities in the body would be constantly expelled and then begin to transform.


    Some disciples of large sects would even eat all kinds of spiritual items from birth.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s natural endowment was not good, and his cultivation time was too late.


    If it were not for the fortuitous encounters, not only would he not have improved his natural endowment by cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture, but he would also have not improved his natural endowment by bathing in the immortal lake.


    Whether he would be able to cultivate to the Divine Ability realm was also a question mark.


    Zhou Feng had not even realized his current situation before the AI¡¯s analysis.


    However, after the AI analyzed the large amount of information in his mind, it concluded the law of cultivation.


    That was, he had to make use of high-level energy such as Spiritual Qi.


    Therefore, self-sufficiency was very important to Zhou Feng.


    ¡®It¡¯s so dangerous outside, so let¡¯s plant crops first!


    Zhou Feng immediately decided to hide in the cave to plant the fields.


    As for the spirit rice seeds, he didn¡¯t have to worry about that.


    There were quite a lot of them in his previous spoils of war. He didn¡¯t know whose storage bag it was, but there were quite a lot of spirit rice seeds in it.


    Anyway, there were all kinds of things piled up in Zhou Feng¡¯s storage ring.


    Zhou Feng was hiding in the cave to farm, so he had nothing to do.


    But those who entered the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins were all unlucky.


    Those who entered didn¡¯t find anything. Instead, they were possessed by some Devil Souls.


    These Devil Souls could control some corpses and convert a large number of living people.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had run fast enough. Those who had run slower had almost all been converted. Only a few people had managed to escape.


    After that, the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins really caused a big commotion as many people died there. Moreover, the news of the birth of the connate numinous treasure attracted many people outside of the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Even the three great holy lands were alarmed!


    Connate numinous treasure! There was actually a connate numinous treasure in the Cold Wind mountain range!?


    After this piece of news, the eyes of the three great holy lands instantly turned red.


    That was because even the three holy lands didn¡¯t have a connate numinous treasure.


    Connate numinous treasures were too difficult to refine. Even after thousands of years of accumulation, the three holy lands couldn¡¯t refine a real connate numinous treasure.


    Compared to the Central Plains and Eastern Lands, the Southern Border was very barren.


    It wasn¡¯t that there weren¡¯t enough materials but that no one knew how to refine one.


    Cultivators who could refine connate numinous treasures were truly popular. Even in a place like the Central Plains, where a 10,000-year-old dynasty was inferior to a dog, they could easily become distinguished guests.


    ¡°Chaotian Temple? Chaotian Sword?¡±


    ¡°Has this piece of news been verified?¡±


    ¡°Yes! It¡¯s definitely a relic of the Chaotian Temple. Now that it has been resurfaced, it doesn¡¯t look dilapidated at all.¡±


    ¡°A connate numinous treasure is definitely suppressed in the great formation. Otherwise, it wouldn¡¯t be preserved so well!¡±


    IIII


    After several confirmations, the three holy lands finally verified that a connate numinous treasure had appeared in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Therefore, the three holy lands dispatched experts at the same time and gathered in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    When the three holy lands gathered in the Cold Wind mountain range, the first thing they did was to seal all the entrances.


    No other cultivators were allowed to enter. Only the disciples of the three holy lands were allowed to enter.


    They even set up strongholds in three places and set up a great formation.


    Such an overbearing act naturally caused many cultivators to be dissatisfied.


    You are too overbearing! The Cold Wind mountain range is so big, yet you say that we can¡¯t enter?


    For this reason, many vagabond cultivators who were not afraid of death tried their best to enter the Cold Wind mountain range.


    In response, the three great holy lands even formed teams to patrol the vicinity of the Cold Wind mountain range. They would intercept and kill them as long as they were not disciples of the three great holy lands!


    That¡¯s right! The three great holy lands were just that overbearing and arrogant!


    If you don¡¯t want to accept it, then just hold it in!


    The Cold Wind mountain range was already filled with all sorts of demonic cultivators, and the environment was quite harsh. Once one¡¯s divine sense entered the Cold Wind mountain range, it would be suppressed to an extremely miserable state.


    In addition to the three great holy lands¡¯ actions, the smell of blood filled the entire Cold Wind mountain range for a time.


    Countless cultivators suffered unnatural deaths or were killed by the Cold Wind mountain range¡¯s Yin Beasts.


    Some demonic cultivators didn¡¯t fight for the so-called connate numinous treasure and just hid in the shadows to hunt down the cultivators who entered the Cold Wind mountain range.


    This was a heaven-sent opportunity!


    The many strong cultivators translated into excellent resources.


    Whether they were driven by the bloodthirst to seize souls or to refine spiritual artifacts, some demonic cultivators took this opportunity to master a divine ability.


    Some demonic cultivators even refined soul-devouring banners, causing the banners to emit the wails of tens of thousands of ghosts.


    Moreover, these demonic cultivators were so bold that they even killed the disciples of the three great holy lands.


    In any case, all of the materials were their resources for promotion.


    What holy land didn¡¯t have resources?

 Chapter 422 - I Want to Change This World!

    Chapter 422 I Want to Change This World!


    Shi Li was a slightly famous demonic cultivator in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    His aptitude wasn¡¯t good, and a genius cultivator had been suppressing him after entering a small sect.


    Even his childhood sweetheart¡¯s character had suddenly changed, and she ended up leaving him.


    His past experiences could be said to be the most ordinary and melodramatic plot.


    This was the true portrayal of most cultivators.


    Childhood sweethearts? Once they stepped onto the path of cultivation, the friendship of mortals was not worth mentioning at all. It was extremely fragile.


    In order to obtain cultivation resources, increase their lifespan, and control their own destiny, even the so-called best friends would backstab each other.


    After experiencing the benefits of cultivation, no one was willing to become a mortal.


    Extraordinary strength! Extremely long lifespan! All of these made people addicted to


    it.


    When Shi Li learned that his childhood sweetheart had been dedicated to that genius cultivator, his entire person turned black.


    The so-called feelings were just a piece of paper, extremely fragile. Only strength was eternal. Thus, Shi Li had come in contact with the Demonic Path and its practices.


    This was also the origin story of most demonic cultivators. There were only a few geniuses in this world, while most people were mediocre.


    If they cultivated step by step, then they would never be able to catch up to those so-called geniuses.


    However, demonic cultivation techniques showed rapid progress and benefits.


    Shi Li had also been somewhat lucky. When he had been helping to deal with the corpse of a demonic cultivator, he suddenly found a demonic cultivation technique stabbed into the demonic cultivator¡¯s back.


    This demonic technique was called the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture. The principle was very simple. It was a method to devour the soul.


    In the beginning, it could only devour the soul of a mortal. Every time it devoured the soul, it would become stronger.


    At the same time, the Blood Qi would wither while the Ghost Qi would become denser.


    Cultivating it was very simple. There was almost no threshold for cultivation.


    After all, most of those who specialized in demonic techniques were cultivators with poor aptitude.


    Therefore, the difficulty of cultivating these demonic cultivation techniques was generally lower, and the progress was very obvious.


    The disadvantages were plenty. This Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture could only strengthen the soul but not the body.


    The more one cultivated the body, the more damaged it would become. In the end, it could only turn into a ghost body. Otherwise, it would not be called the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture.


    In addition, every living soul devoured would have an impact on the practitioner¡¯s soul.


    After all, this method of devouring living souls wasn¡¯t very brilliant.


    When one was devouring the living souls of mortals, its backlash could be barely suppressed.


    Later on, when the cultivation base was higher, the enormous cultivator¡¯s soul power would easily collide with the practitioner¡¯s soul power.


    Developing a second personality was considered light! The more serious ones might even become lunatics, lose their sense of self, and turn into a malicious ghost, wandering aimlessly around the world.


    In the beginning, Shi Li had only memorized this demonic technique, not daring to cultivate it.


    The side effects were horrible.


    Shi Li had been aware that once he cultivated this demonic technique, the sect would definitely not be able to tolerate him. At that time, it would be a question of whether he would be able to save his own life.


    However, just as Shi Li had been planning to live his life in mediocrity, his childhood sweetheart died!


    That¡¯s right! That genius cultivator had just been playing around with Shi Li¡¯s childhood sweetheart.


    Shi Li himself did not have any background, so his childhood sweetheart was naturally just an ordinary person.


    It was just that her appearance was a little pure and amiable, while her aptitude was not that great.


    That person had only used a few flowery words, and coupled with his handsome appearance and some Spirit Stones, he tricked this village girl from a small place until she was dizzy. In the end, he had even tricked her into taking some aphrodisiacs to take her virginity.


    He had turned her into his plaything, perfectly showcasing what it meant to be a beast.


    And no one had felt that there was anything wrong with this person. In the cultivation world, the law of the jungle reigned supreme.


    No one would take revenge for such a village girl.


    After Shi Li¡¯s childhood sweetheart woke up and found out about all this, her entire person naturally collapsed.


    Regret! Despair! Death of the heart!


    She hated herself for losing her mind and being deceived so miserably by a person she had met a few times.


    She hated herself for letting down Shi Li and betraying the feelings of their past little innocent selves.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry! Forgive me! Don¡¯t take revenge for me, and live in peace!¡±


    Shi Li looked calmly at his childhood sweetheart, who had died in his arms, and a wave of emotions was brewing in his chest.


    She could not bear such an outcome and committed suicide in Shi Li¡¯s arms in regret and despair.


    This would make her feel better in her heart.


    That night, Shi Li himself did not know what had happened to him.


    He just buried his childhood sweetheart with bloodshot eyes.


    After that, he began to cultivate recklessly.


    He accepted all kinds of dangerous sect missions, used all kinds of painful cultivation techniques, and even sold himself to another genius.


    He abandoned his dignity! He abandoned his personality! He became a dog for others.


    The speed of Shi Li¡¯s cultivation increased by leaps and bounds, to the point it faintly threatened that genius.


    Everyone in the sect knew why Shi Li cultivated so crazily.


    Some people even publicized the grudges, and many people even acted as if they were watching a good show.


    They wanted to see what the final result would be.


    Hence, the genius felt a little flustered.


    He wanted to nip this dangerous situation in the bud, but he was afraid of the person behind Shi Li.


    Shi Li had already sold himself to that person.


    Therefore, the genius wanted to anger Shi Li in order to lure him out deliberately.


    ¡°You¡¯ve never tasted your childhood sweetheart, right? Let me tell you! Very moist!


    ¡°And she even took the initiative to cooperate!¡±


    Listening to the extremely humiliating words, Shi Li recalled the lover who had died in his arms that day and went mad!


    He had never been so angry.


    ¡®Why!? Why is it that people with high cultivation can do whatever they want? Why can people with deep backgrounds do this!?¡¯


    Others could only manipulate ordinary people like him.


    In his resentment, Shi Li thought of the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture.


    In the face of provocation, he did not fight back or speak. He hid in the dark like a venomous snake.


    At that moment, there was no so-called morality in Shi Li¡¯s heart.


    He only wanted to sweep the entire world clean so that this kind of thing would not happen in the future.


    Then, he would resurrect his lover.


    If others knew Shi Li¡¯s thoughts, they would definitely think that this person was not just crazy but that a door had crushed his head.


    This was because of the disparity in power. Unless all the cultivators were killed, it was impossible to solve this problem.


    As for resurrecting a person? This was even more impossible!


    No one had ever been able to resurrect after death, not even the once glorious first Human Emperor.


    However, no one could fathom Shi Li¡¯s determination.


    After deciding to cultivate the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture, Shi Li chose the village that had once nurtured him as his stepping stone.


    Acquaintances were easy and hard to find.


    Eventually, the entire village disappeared¡­

 Chapter 423 - Salvation Ghost Army

    Chapter 423 Salvation Ghost Army


    When Shi Li used the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture to devour a whole village of people, his personality underwent a huge change.


    The rapid expansion of his strength had also made his courage rapidly expand.


    And that kind of improvement that could be experienced with the naked eye made him even more immersed in it.


    However, the side effects of the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture were quickly displayed.


    The more living souls he devoured, the more voices appeared in his mind. Shi Li needed more powerful soul power to suppress these voices.


    Only then could he not go crazy.


    However, the fastest way to improve his soul power was to use the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture.


    As a result, Shi Li went out of control.


    Under normal circumstances, Shi Li would not be able to endure the intense pain and start to devour living souls crazily.


    However, he endured it.


    He wanted to change this rotten world. He wanted to resurrect his lover. He wanted revenge.


    Shi Li endured it. Moreover, under the circumstances where his own strength was insufficient.


    He endured humiliation, suffering, and all sorts of oppression from other people.


    No one could imagine his tenacity and perseverance.


    In the end, he succeeded. Although the side effects of the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture were great, his cultivation would increase at breakneck speed if he could endure it.


    In just a year, Shi Li had broken through to the Divine Ability Realm and even comprehended a divine ability on his own.


    Ghost Feast!


    This was a divine ability that allowed countless ghosts to swallow people alive.


    It was also a divine ability that was compatible with the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture.


    That¡¯s right! Shi Li had created a divine ability that was compatible with the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture.


    This was something that he had created in pain because he had long been fed up with the noisy ghosts in his head.


    He might as well refine all these ghosts once and turn them into a divine ability.


    One had to admit that the power of hatred was really powerful.


    ¡°Please! I was wrong! I still have a few women here¡­¡±


    The former genius died at Shi Li¡¯s feet. Before he died, he still wanted to ask Shi Li to spare him.


    However, Shi Li didn¡¯t say a word. He only tortured this so-called genius for nine days and nine nights.


    He didn¡¯t even spare the small sect, killing everyone single-handedly. After exterminating an entire sect, Shi Li¡¯s strength swelled again. However, what he did to accomplish that was taboo, so the three great holy lands issued a warrant for his capture as he used living people to cultivate.


    As such, he had no choice but to flee into the Cold Wind mountain range.


    After fleeing into the Cold Wind mountain range, Shi Li took another step forward. He abandoned his physical body and transformed into a Ghost King that commanded an area.


    Then, he began to train the ghost army continuously in preparation to wipe out the entire world one day.


    He would kill all the cultivators one by one. This way, the world would be much quieter.


    Then, he would turn the entire world into a ghost realm, where everyone would be a ghost.


    His will was everything. This way, there wouldn¡¯t be any injustice, and there wouldn¡¯t be such dirty things.


    Although Shi Li¡¯s idea was laughable, he didn¡¯t waver in the slightest and advanced toward this goal bit by bit


    Moreover, he knew that his aptitude wasn¡¯t high enough, so he had to borrow the wisdom of others.


    He spread out the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture and let countless resentful ghosts and demonic cultivators cultivate it.


    He found out the flaws of this cultivation technique and then optimized it.


    Now that the disciples of the three great holy lands had entered the Cold Wind mountain range, it was an even better opportunity for Shi Li.


    ¡°The disciples of the three great holy lands should all be so-called geniuses!¡±


    Shi Li sat on the throne. His entire body was covered in pitch-black battle armor, and even his face was covered tightly.


    ¡°Not only are they geniuses, but some of them are even more monstrous! I heard that the strongest batch of them have created their own abilities and are preparing to head to the Central Plains!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! And those people have Dao Protectors behind them. It¡¯s very difficult to get their hands on these people!¡±


    Below Shi Li were a few malicious ghosts. These were his subordinates that he had subdued over the years.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. I still have a lot of time. I¡¯ll get people to capture them one by one. My think tank needs to be expanded!¡±


    Under the dim environment, no one knew what Shi Li was thinking.


    But one thing was certain, the disciples of the three holy lands were definitely in trouble.


    The moment Shi Li said that the think tank needed to be expanded, no one dared to make a sound.


    The so-called think tank was actually the souls that Shi Li had devoured.


    Not only could the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture devour the souls of mortals, but it could also devour the cultivators¡¯ souls.


    The cultivators¡¯ souls Shi Li devoured would not dissipate directly, but they would merge with him.


    Moreover, they possessed a certain level of intelligence and could fight with Shi Li for control of the body.


    This was one of the major drawbacks of the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture.


    This could only be slowly mended through time.


    1 Some


    There had once been some souls that wanted to fight for control over Shi Li¡¯s body.


    However, all of them had failed. Shi Li¡¯s terrifying obsession had caused countless souls to retreat in defeat. No one knew just how persistent this man was.


    Every time they failed, it would increase Shi Li¡¯s foundation.


    At present, the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture had improved a lot compared to the original Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture.


    What was even more terrifying was that not many people knew about Shi Li, a force known as the Salvation Ghost Army.


    The Salvation Ghost Army had been waiting for an opportunity to bite down on a piece of territory from the three great holy lands.


    Also, Shi Li¡¯s location was not far from the cave abode that Zhou Feng had just built.


    It could even be said to be very close, only two mountains apart.


    However, Zhou Feng did not know about these.


    He was studying a ghost right now!


    ¡°AI! Are you saying that this ghost can increase my soul power?¡±


    Zhou Feng stared at the ghost in front of him that was about to disappear.


    He rarely saw ghosts in other places because almost all of them had been cleared away by cultivators. If these ghosts weren¡¯t cleared away, they would easily be contaminated by resentment and turn into malicious ghosts.


    Therefore, ghosts rarely appeared in this area of the Southern Border.


    There weren¡¯t even many sects that raised ghosts.


    It was said that there was a country called Ghost Country in the Central Plains, where everyone raised ghosts.


    As for the Southern Border, only the Cold Wind mountain range had a large number of ghosts gathered there.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s reason for studying ghosts was also very simple.


    That was to find a way to increase his soul power.


    From a certain point of view, soul power contributed to the Al¡¯s computational ability.


    The stronger the Al¡¯s computational ability, the more help it would be to him.


    Also, Zhou Feng now had a top-tier divine ability that he needed to cultivate.


    Naturally, the more the soul power, the better. Moreover, he did not have any visualization technique, so he could only find another way.


    After the AI¡¯s analysis, the ghost was actually the combination of Yin Qi and soul power, aka Ghost Qi.


    If the Yin Qi and impurities could be removed from it, then what was left was the purest soul power. Ir could be completely absorbed and assimilated to meet the requirements to improve one¡¯s soul power.


    ¡°But the problem is how to remove the Yin Qi and impurities in the ghost and leave the purest soul power?¡±


    Zhou Feng tried to use the Great Void Primordial Qi to destroy the Yin Qi of the ghost in front of him.


    But with just a touch, the ghost was tortured to the point of dissipating.

 Chapter 424

    Ever since he obtained the AI, Zhou Feng had also changed the way he thought.


    That was to focus on research, with cultivation as the main method of development.


    In terms of cultivation, the AI could directly assist him.


    Researching various methods and longevity was more important to him.


    Don¡¯t forget that his ultimate goal was longevity.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng focused most of his energy on improving his soul power and how to live longer.


    He was studying the essence of ghosts to improve his soul power.


    As for how to live forever, Zhou Feng focused on his innate ability.


    His innate ability was Longevity, and he had more lifespan than ordinary people.


    But why? According to the theory of his previous life, the length of his lifespan might be related to the number of times his cells divided.


    This was a cultivation world, however, so Zhou Feng did not intend to start from this aspect.


    Instead, he had the AI observe and collect all the data about his body. He wanted to see if there was some kind of power that kept his body alive and young.


    This was destined to be a goal that would take a very long time.


    After studying it for a while, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t sit still anymore.


    The things that needed to be arranged in the cave had been arranged, and the things that needed to be built were almost done.


    It was also time to go out and take a look.


    The Cold Wind mountain range had been lively the past few days.


    The disciples of the three great holy lands entered the Cold Wind mountain range one after another to set up camp.


    They also began to explore the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins upon learning that the Chaotian Temple¡¯s outer restriction had been broken.


    Zhou Feng planned to take revenge on the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    He lacked Spirit Stones and research materials, so other than the Jade Sword Holy Land, the other two holy lands were also big fat sheep in his eyes.


    The disciples of the three holy lands were all rich, so it was time to make some preparations.


    Zhou Feng felt that there was no room for development in the Southern Border.


    The three great holy lands almost monopolized the way to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Moreover, many resources in the vicinity were concentrated in the three great holy lands.


    If he wanted to maintain the momentum of a rapid breakthrough, he would need more help and more cultivation knowledge.


    Naturally, the barren Southern Border could not satisfy all of his needs.


    Zhou Feng needed to leave the Southern Border and head to the Central Plains or the Eastern Land.


    As for whether he should head to the Central Plains or the Eastern Land, he had already made up his mind.


    That was the Eastern Land!


    Compared to the Central Plains, which was filled with immortal dynasties, the Eastern Land was slightly weaker, and it was also an area where many sects gathered.


    There, the legacies of the seniors would be more, and there would be more opportunities.


    Furthermore, he had heard that the Eastern Land was one of the few places where humans and other races gathered.


    The Southern Border was barren. The western side was filled with bald donkey monks, and the Central Plains had the most human dynasties.


    As for the northern side, Zhou Feng did not know much about it.


    After thinking about it, he still wanted to go to the Eastern Land to see other races.


    He would head to the Central Plains in the future to see the true geniuses of the human race.


    If it were possible, the Central Plains would be a good place to settle down.


    Zhou Feng had already started to prepare a large number of cultivation resources for this.


    ¡°Big Yellow, take care of the cave. I¡¯m going out for a while!¡±


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng could no longer hold back. After instructing Big Yellow, he left the cave abode.


    Big Yellow did not even respond. He only focused on the various medicinal herbs in front of him.


    ¡­


    ¡®Great luck!¡¯


    After Zhou Feng left the cave abode, he immediately met with the disciples of the three great holy lands.


    Recently, because the experts of the three great holy lands were constantly cleaning up all sorts of Yin Beasts and resentful ghosts, the Yin Qi that pervaded the surroundings of the Cold Wind mountain range seemed to have dissipated quite a bit.


    There were even a few more obvious paths.


    Upon seeing the Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s prediction, he did not say anything else and chose to make his move.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a bow and arrows.


    He drew the bow and shot the arrows!


    The three arrows condensed from the Great Void Primordial Qi flew in three different directions.


    ¡°Who is it?¡±


    ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The three disciples of the holy lands who were traveling together immediately died.


    Three Divine Ability cultivators died at Zhou Feng¡¯s hands just like that.


    That¡¯s right! It was so exaggerated and abnormal!


    The Cold Wind mountain range was simply Zhou Feng¡¯s home ground.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s divine sense was suppressed to the point that it couldn¡¯t be used as a probing method, but he could use Hexadirectional Calculation with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    He could deduce the enemy¡¯s position and movements and then use the passive Piercing Yang and many other passive buffs.


    Ambushing the three Divine Ability realm cultivators was simply a piece of cake.


    He didn¡¯t even enter Overload.


    ¡®It¡¯s a pity that the spirit beans haven¡¯t grown yet. Otherwise, there wouldn¡¯t be a need for such a sneak attack¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s footsteps were light. In a short while, he arrived in front of these people and carried out a round of looting.


    Bean Soldiers was a divine ability that became even more suitable for him after the AI¡¯s optimization.


    However, because he wanted to use spirit beans to refine dao soldiers, the spirit beans were in the process of being grown.


    Thus, he temporarily did not cultivate the Bean Soldiers Ability.


    Zhou Feng believed he could swiftly refine many dao weapons when the spirit beans grew with the AI¡¯s help.


    As for what to use to refine them, he had already thought about it.


    Wasn¡¯t this Cold Wind mountain range filled with Yin Qi?


    When the dao weapons were completed, they would be directly nourished with Yin Qi.


    Although the dao weapons refined in this way would not be very strong, they could only be used in this way.


    When the conditions were right, he would refine a batch of powerful dao soldiers in the future.


    ¡®Not bad!¡¯


    Zhou Feng casually opened a storage ring and found that there were quite a lot of things inside.


    He didn¡¯t care about the few corpses. Instead, he strolled and began to search for the next target.


    With every step, the AI would use Hexadirectional Calculation to calculate the good and bad luck, so Zhou Feng walked casually.


    He was strolling!


    Meanwhile¡­


    The atmosphere in the three holy lands was solemn.


    ¡°Another group died? How many disciples have we lost?¡±


    ¡°Have those demonic cultivators gone mad? Do they really think that our holy lands don¡¯t have the ability to eliminate rats like them?¡±


    ¡°I think you¡¯re not very clear-headed! Those demonic cultivators who are able to live in the Cold Wind mountain range are all bloodthirsty people. Why would they care about the reputation of the holy lands?¡±


    ¡°What did you say!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After a few conversations, the people of the three holy lands began to quarrel again.


    Many people were already used to such a scene.


    There was only one connate numinous treasure in Chaotian Temple ruins, but there were three holy lands.


    In other words, there would only be one winner in the end.


    It was impossible for the three holy lands to be happy and harmonious.


    However, their recent casualties were also unbearable for them.


    Otherwise, the three holy lands would not have gathered at this time.


    Besides the various dangers of the Cold Wind mountain range, there were also all kinds of tvagabond cultivators and small sects outside the Cold Wind mountain range.


    When these people gathered together, the pressure they gave was quite great.


    However, the progress of exploring the Chaotian Temple had stopped.


    That kind of strange Yin Qi was really difficult to crack.


    Moreover, once a mighty Dragon Transformation expert got close to the Chaotian Temple, that strange bell would ring continuously.


    That unseen terror made these mighty Dragon Transformation experts not dare to get close.

 Chapter 425

    Although the three holy lands were quarreling non-stop, they all understood that they had to come up with a plan now.


    Their disciples could not sacrifice themselves in this place for nothing. After all, nurturing disciples was very resource-intensive.


    Once the disciples suffered too much damage, the foundation of the three holy lands would be unstable.


    The three holy lands may have been dominating for many years, but there were still people who opposed them.


    ¡°Alright! Let¡¯s not hide it anymore! This connate numinous treasure will be very difficult to obtain if we don¡¯t show some ability!¡±


    ¡°Moreover, this Chaotian Temple seems a little strange. There might be a great Devil sealed inside!¡±


    ¡°Otherwise, the Chaotian Temple wouldn¡¯t have been destroyed overnight!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After the argument, the three holy lands finally compromised.


    They had already realized that the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins were not as simple as they had imagined.


    The eerie spreading power and the strange bell chimes indicated that a great Devil was suppressed there.


    In fact, the three holy lands had a good understanding of the Chaotian Temple.


    According to the legends, the reason the Chaotian Temple had been destroyed overnight was probably that a great Devil had broken the seal.


    In the end, the Chaotian Temple had no choice but to pull the entire sect to suppress this great Devil.


    Of course, this was just a rumor that had been passed down.


    It seemed that this rumor was very likely true now.


    If it weren¡¯t for the great Devil being suppressed there, the Cold Wind mountain range wouldn¡¯t have become like this, nor would the Chaotian Temple have been destroyed.


    Once this great Devil escaped, the three holy lands would be the first to bear the brunt.


    Therefore, other than being attracted by the connate numinous treasure, the three holy lands had another goal: to find a way to deal with the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Not only did they want to deal with the great Devil that was suppressed here, but also the demonic cultivators gathered here.


    It was rare for the three holy lands to gather here because of a connate numinous treasure.


    Naturally, they had to do something.


    Although the three holy lands had been competing all this time, they were on the same side from a certain point of view.


    The three holy lands absolutely would not allow other powers to be on equal footing with them.


    Three holy lands were enough.


    ¡°Good! Since it¡¯s like this, the three of us will work together. We have to move together to enter and exit the Cold Wind mountain range. How about that?¡±


    ¡°No problem. We might as well merge our bases into one in the Cold Wind mountain range.¡±


    ¡°First, we will eliminate all the unexpected factors, and then we will fight for the ownership of the connate numinous treasure. What do you think?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    With a consensus, the progress of the negotiations among the three holy lands increased a lot in an instant.


    Under various pressures, the three holy lands joined forces.


    The Chaotian Temple, this fat piece of meat, would fall in the three holy lands¡¯ hands even if it was rotten.


    The others wanted to eat this piece of meat? No way!


    Moreover, even if one of the holy lands obtained a connate numinous treasure, it was actually not a good thing.


    This would inevitably cause the other two holy lands to join forces. When that time came, the situation would be completely different.


    The combined strength of the three great holy lands was terrifying.


    For a time, a large number of resources and personnel were mobilized to the Cold Wind mountain range.


    The vagabond cultivators and small sects couldn¡¯t even withstand a single blow and were all wiped out.


    Afterward, the three great holy lands established a super stronghold in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    They dispersed the Yin Qi in the surroundings and set up a super formation to clean up the nearby Yin Beasts.


    The three holy lands terraformed the Cold Wind mountain range¡¯s originally harsh environment to establish a safe stronghold with their manpower.


    During this period, countless demonic cultivators suffered in the hands of the elite disciples of the three great holy lands.


    These demonic cultivators were not worth mentioning at all.


    In the end, one-on-one battles were no match for groups of people.


    Even Shi Li¡¯s Salvation Ghost Army suffered heavy losses.


    No one had expected the three great holy lands to unite so quickly. Normally, shouldn¡¯t they be bickering for some time before slowly uniting in the end?


    However, only Zhou Feng was an exception.


    He was still crazily attacking the disciples of the three holy lands with the help of the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation.


    He was able to escape unharmed every time.


    ¡®So fat~¡¯


    Zhou Feng took a look at the spoils of war and threw them into his storage ring.


    Compared to obedient farming, snatching what he needed was much faster.


    His little treasury had been expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye during this period.


    But the price of doing so was that the entire Cold Wind mountain range knew of Zhou Feng¡¯s existence, especially the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    Under the new and old grudges, they viewed him as a thorn in their side.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s growth was too fast!


    He had been a mere Purple Mansion cultivator, but he became a Divine Ability cultivator in the blink of an eye.


    Later on, he even managed to fight to a draw with Jiang Yi. This time, he appeared in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    It was unknown how much his strength had grown.


    In any case, not a single one of those so-called holy land disciples was able to escape from his hands.


    It was too terrifying!


    This rate of growth made the Jade Sword Holy Land feel fear.


    Jiang Yi was even more clear that Zhou Feng most likely had a Dao Seal on his body. That was the legacy of a large sect!


    ¡®I can¡¯t let him continue to grow! I must kill this person in the cradle!¡¯


    Thinking of this, Jiang Yi didn¡¯t continue to hide this matter and shared his guess with the sect.


    Thus, the news of Zhou Feng having a Dao Seal spread.


    Crazy!


    That¡¯s right! After the others heard this news, almost all of them fell into crazy emotions.


    The moment this piece of news spread, almost everyone fell into a frenzy.


    This was really tempting!


    Those who could condense a Dao Seal were at least Dragon Transformation experts and above.


    As long as one had a Dao Seal, wouldn¡¯t this be equivalent to one¡¯s own cultivation path becoming the Great Dao of reaching heaven?


    No wonder the growth speed of Zhou Feng, a mere vagabond cultivator, was so fast and unreasonable!


    For this, the three great holy lands even put aside the exploration of the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins and focused most of their attention on Zhou Feng.


    Originally, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any reaction to this.


    No one could do anything to him as long as he wanted to hide in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    But what he didn¡¯t expect was that the three great holy lands had found out about his experience in Heavenly Star City.


    The Li Clan of Heavenly Star City was implicated because of him, and the entire clan was captured.


    Among them was Li Rong, his rumored love.


    After Zhou Feng¡¯s battle with Jiang Yi, the Jade Sword Holy Land began to investigate Zhou Feng¡¯s background bit by bit. He had fled unscathed, after all.


    No one jumped out of a rock.


    Since Zhou Feng could cultivate to such a degree, he must have made some friends. Even vagabond cultivators would have some friends.


    Although the method of using someone that Zhou Feng had once known to threaten him was despicable, it was effective.


    As for the innocent?


    In the eyes of many people, there were no innocent people. Being weak was the original sin.


    This world was just so pragmatic and cruel.


    ¡°If you want your little lover to live, then come out and surrender!¡±


    After Zhou Feng learned this, a trace of surprise appeared on his face. He did not expect that he would actually implicate Li Rong¡¯s entire clan.


    Then, a hint of killing intent began to condense.


    There was no other expression on his face as he softly said, ¡°Very good!¡±

 Chapter 426

    Bringing disaster to friends and family.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, this kind of concept was a very distant matter.


    After all, since coming to this world, he had almost always been alone.


    Even if he had friends, there were no more than three of them.


    But this kind of thing still fell on his head in the end.


    Li Rong¡¯s family had been caught.


    When facing a behemoth like the Jade Sword Holy Land, the Li Clan, which had been dominating Heavenly Star City for a while, had no power to resist at all.


    Although Zhou Feng had not wanted for this to happen, there was no other way!


    The gap between a single person and a huge force was too big.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land could use all kinds of methods to make Zhou Feng yield, but Zhou Feng himself did not have many ways.


    Also, as Zhou Feng continued to grow, he would inevitably come into contact with the interests of these large forces unless he was willing to endure the tortoise-like speed of growth.


    Otherwise, there was no way to put an end to the friction and enmity that arose.


    And this also meant that his family and friends would be in danger.


    ¡®So¡­ Should I kill a few or start a massacre?¡¯


    At that moment, Li Rong¡¯s face appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    No wonder there was the old saying, ¡°Dragons do not cohabit with snakes¡±. From a certain point of view, it was not that dragons looked down on snakes. It was just that snakes were too weak. As long as there was a little bit of wind and waves, the snake¡¯s vitality might be greatly damaged.


    However, the dragon would be unharmed.


    Zhou Feng sat on the stone chair, his fingers continuously tapping on the stone table at the side as his killing intent accumulated.


    On the other side, at the three great holy lands¡¯ encampment¡­


    Li Rong¡¯s face was ashen as she was tied to a table.


    ¡°Has that person really returned?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! From his past experiences, this person can be considered a cold-blooded person. Why would he come over for a mere woman?¡±


    ¡°Furthermore, isn¡¯t doing this¡­¡±


    The disciples of the three great holy lands were discussing in low voices.


    Some people did not think that Zhou Feng would come and save this young lady. After all, the two of them had not known each other for long.


    Although they were somewhat related, there was no need for him to risk his life to save her.


    Also, doing so seemed to damage the reputation of the three holy lands.


    ¡°Humph! A woman¡¯s benevolence!


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter whether Zhou Feng comes or not. This is just an attempt!


    ¡°We have to let everyone see the consequences of going against the holy lands! The reputation is earned through killing! It¡¯s not earned through good intentions!¡±


    An old man with a child¡¯s face and white hair looked at Li Rong coldly.


    Actually, it didn¡¯t matter whether Zhou Fenglai came or not. This operation was more like a show for the others to see and stabilize the troops¡¯ morale.


    Zhou Feng had been too ruthless a while ago, and the disciples of the three holy lands had suffered heavy casualties, causing the troops¡¯ morale to be low.


    In order to maintain morale and not let the other forces look down on the holy lands, they could only use this move.


    As long as one went against the holy land, then they could only hope that they didn¡¯t have any relatives or friends. Otherwise, all of their relatives and friends would be unlucky.


    As for whether this would create a huge hidden danger, this wasn¡¯t within the scope of the three great holy lands¡¯ consideration.


    The three great holy lands had already planned to show no mercy.


    They planned to solve the Cold Wind mountain range problem completely. Each holy land had sent out a Dragon Transformation expert, as well as a Formation Master.


    The three holy lands had to set up a new formation after this exploration period. They had finally verified that there was indeed a great Devil sealed under the Chaotian Temple.


    That Chaotian Sword was the object of suppression.


    Therefore, if they wanted to take out the Chaotian Sword, they needed to replace the object of suppression.


    The three holy lands had thought about it and decided to sacrifice the Yin Veins of the Cold Wind mountain range and all the demonic cultivators to seal this great Devil forcefully.


    It was better to cut the Gordian knot than to drag it out.


    Therefore, in many people¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng¡¯s matter was only a small one. The three Dragon Transformation cultivators had gathered together, so Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be able to escape even if he had wings.


    The big matter was suppressing the great Devil and seizing the Chaotian Sword.


    Obviously, these people didn¡¯t realize that provoking Zhou Feng was a terrible mistake.


    ¡°Eh? What¡¯s going on? Why is it getting cold?¡±


    ¡°What a huge killing intent!¡±


    ¡°Someone¡¯s coming!¡±


    Many people suddenly felt a trace of coldness in the stronghold of the three holy lands.


    And that soaring killing intent seemed to be approaching step by step.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng came directly! He didn¡¯t hide, nor did he have the slightest bit of fear.


    He walked over step by step from this newly opened road just like that.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance caused the entire stronghold to move in an instant.


    Everyone gathered like a tide, and Zhou Feng was completely surrounded within a few breaths¡¯ time.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s name had spread throughout the three great holy lands, in reality, not many people had seen him.


    At this moment, many people were finally able to catch a glimpse of Zhou Feng¡¯s demeanor.


    Many people were extremely curious as to how a vagabond cultivator like him had cultivated to such a level and why he was so bold.


    He was dressed in black, and his long hair was tied behind his head. His skin was like white jade, and he looked like a noble young master.


    However, the aura that he emitted caused people to shudder in fear.


    ¡°Big Brother Zhou!¡±


    Li Rong, whose eyes were originally dim, noticed the commotion, and a glimmer of light instantly flashed through her eyes.


    Before Zhou Feng¡¯s arrival, Li Rong had a trace of resentment toward him in her heart.


    If it weren¡¯t for him, the majestic Li Clan of Heavenly Star City wouldn¡¯t have suffered such a fate.


    The change in status from a cultivation clan to becoming a prisoner overnight wasn¡¯t something that many people could accept.


    Li Rong was fine, but the Li clansmen who weren¡¯t familiar with Zhou Feng had already started cursing!


    ¡°Evil spirit! Ominous star!¡±


    These kinds of words were considered light.


    There were also some unsightly words that were incessant.


    Although this wasn¡¯t entirely Zhou Feng¡¯s fault¡ªafter all, the actions of the three great holy lands were overbearing¡ªLi Rong was only Zhou Feng¡¯s friend, so the entire Li Clan was implicated.


    No matter how one looked at it, such actions were too overbearing.


    However, the Li Clan didn¡¯t dare to scold the three great holy lands, so they could only curse Zhou Feng to vent their anger.


    From the Li Clan¡¯s point of view, this wasn¡¯t wrong.


    And from Zhou Feng¡¯s point of view, it wasn¡¯t wrong either.


    From the beginning to the end, Zhou Feng was the one who fought back passively.


    If it weren¡¯t because he was strong enough, he would have already been exposed in the wilderness.


    Everything Zhou Feng had done wasn¡¯t wrong. He only did it to survive.


    Even from the perspective of the three great holy lands, there wasn¡¯t the slightest mistake.


    It had to be done to ensure the prestige of the holy lands and intimidate the petty people, even if it was something that others looked down on.


    The three great holy lands represented the interests of countless people, not just one or two people¡¯s interests.


    Only when the holy lands became stronger and more prosperous would the disciples who were attached to the holy lands be able to cultivate better.


    Everyone was fighting for themselves, and there weren¡¯t that many differences between good and evil.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng planned to squash all three great holy lands before he left the Southern Border!


    His eyes became clearer and clearer, and he softly said, ¡°Rest in peace!¡±


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a bow in the next instant!


    He released an arrow, and a Divine Ability disciple died on the spot!

 Chapter 427 - h

    ¡°This person¡­¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng kill a Divine Ability disciple so easily, the crowd could not help but exclaim loudly.


    The other party was an elite disciple from the three great holy lands, yet this entire process was simple.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions just now were as simple as eating and drinking water.


    ¡°Hmph! Make your move!¡±


    Ying Qu¡¯s face was ashen as he ordered everyone to fall in position.


    Since Zhou Feng had delivered himself to their doorstep, they should not hold back.


    As the nominal leader of this stronghold, his main focus was still on seizing the Chaotian Sword.


    As for people like Zhou Feng, they could just let their disciples deal with him.


    ¡°Do it!¡±


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    After receiving Ying Qu¡¯s orders, everyone finally reacted.


    There were so many people on their side; each of them could drown Zhou Feng with just a mouthful of saliva.


    In an instant, all sorts of divine abilities were unleashed.


    In response to this, Zhou Feng remained standing on the same spot.


    The Invincible Avatar slowly rose, and dragon-like Blood Qi gushed out of his body.


    At the same time, the AI started to calculate frantically.


    ¡®Move half a step to the right! Turn your left body 15¡ã!¡¯


    1


    Zhou Feng shuttled through all kinds of attacks. Sometimes, if he could not dodge them, he would use his physical body to take them head-on.


    One Arrow!


    Another arrow!


    It was as if he was going through a very simple hunt.


    Under the siege of so many people, he was strolling leisurely. A casual arrow was enough to kill a person.


    That unrestrained and carefree temperament was enough to blind everyone.


    More than 10 people died in less than 30 seconds, and no protective item could protect their lives.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s every arrow seemed to be calculated.


    The all-conquering Great Void Primordial Qi directly penetrated all defenses.


    And when it came into contact with the physical body, the Great Void Primordial Qi¡¯s corrosive power immediately destroyed all life.


    There were no gorgeous moves, nor were there any flashy ones.


    Zhou Feng looked eerily calm, but each arrow represented a human life.


    ¡°You!¡±


    ¡°This person¡¯s strength!¡±


    ¡°Retreat! Retreat quickly!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    In less than a minute, those who had come to surround Zhou Feng were scared out of their wits.


    This was because the person in front of them was too strange. As long as they were targeted, they would only die!


    Moreover, there wasn¡¯t the slightest wound on his body. This was pure oppression!


    Although being crushed by a vagabond cultivator was something that was difficult for others to accept, compared to other things, their little lives were more important.


    ¡°Detestable little b*stard!¡±


    It was also out of Ying Qu¡¯s expectation that this battle would be one-sided.


    Zhou Feng was facing so many elite disciples, yet he could harvest a life with an arrow? Wasn¡¯t this a little too outrageous?


    While he was furious on the surface, Ying Qu felt a chill in his heart.


    According to the strength that Zhou Feng had displayed so far, he did not seem to be a match for him!


    Even though he was already a perfect-stage Divine Ability expert, a step away from the Dragon Transformation realm, it was still a little difficult for him to deal with Zhou Feng.


    Every time Zhou Feng¡¯s soul traversed the great void with the AI¡¯s assistance, he would have a brand new experience.


    Moreover, the AI could also assist him in using the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    Therefore, although Zhou Feng had only mastered one divine ability, he was able to rely on said divine ability to kill everyone in front of him.


    The most shell-shocked party was naturally Jiang Yi.


    ¡®Previously, it was just¡­ Why!?¡¯


    Jiang Yi was frightened now. Previously, Zhou Feng had not been so powerful. But now, it was like he was an entirely different person.


    It had only been a few months, hadn¡¯t it!?


    At that moment, Jiang Yi felt that he would stand no chance against Zhou Feng,


    Zhou Feng¡¯s progress speed and astounding battle prowess made Jiang Yi¡¯s palms sweat.


    His previous thoughts seemed to be a little too simple. Why hadn¡¯t he made up his mind at that time?


    To solve this huge problem and not give Zhou Feng the chance to grow up.


    Also, it was because of the special environment of the Cold Wind mountain range that Jiang Yi¡¯s Dao Protector was not present. Once a Dragon Transformation powerhouse entered, they would stir up the Yin Qi that had been accumulated for thousands of years, as well as those sleeping monsters.


    Therefore, Jiang Yi¡¯s Dao Protector had not followed him.


    Could they restrain Zhou Feng without a Dragon Transformation powerhouse?


    Jiang Yi was extremely doubtful about this.


    ¡°Don¡¯t hold back! Quickly kill this thief! Otherwise, our three great holy lands will become laughingstocks today!¡± roared Ying Qu.


    He told everyone not to hold back anymore. Otherwise, what awaited was the tragic fate of the others.


    They had had a pile of trump cards in their hands, but they had been unable to use anything. They had died in an instant.


    ¡°Hurry up and carry that girl!¡±


    Ying Qu had not forgotten about Li Rong.


    They had to make Zhou Feng hold back!


    This kind of outcome was something Ying Qu had never thought of before.


    This was the stronghold of the three great holy lands, and everyone here was an elite disciple. They could easily conquer small sects, yet they were akin to chickens waiting to be slaughtered before Zhou Feng. They were no different from mere mortals in his eyes.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    When Zhou Feng heard Ying Qu¡¯s last order, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.


    The aura of the Invincible Avatar above his head became even more terrifying!


    With every person he killed, the suppressive force of the avatar became even more intense.


    ¡°You¡¯re the one who should die!¡±


    A person¡¯s body was burning with scarlet flames. His entire body was radiating with boundless light, and he looked like an ancient war god from afar.


    In the blink of an eye, this person had already arrived in front of Zhou Feng.


    He held a battle spear in his hand, and his overbearing aura assaulted Zhou Feng.


    Apart from that, there were more than 10 flying swords that stabbed at Zhou Feng from different directions,


    Bright and pure Sword Qi protected the flying swords as they turned into rays of light.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s void armor flowed like water, and the flying swords seemed to have hit a piece of black iron.


    Some even pierced three inches into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Unfortunately, it was only three inches. The Great Void Primordial Qi that flowed like water curled slightly and the seemingly indestructible flying swords were severely damaged. The light around them dimmed quite a bit.


    ¡°Pfft!¡±


    ¡°Pfft! Impossible!¡±


    The Jade Sword disciples spat out mouthfuls of blood as the flying swords were connected to them.


    Since their natal flying swords were damaged, they naturally bore the brunt.


    ¡°You!¡±


    The boundless light engulfing the person who had faced Zhou Feng gradually disappeared as well.


    The ancient god of war-like pressure also slowly dissipated.


    At that moment, everyone clearly saw what was happening.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand had pierced through the chest of the person in front of him. He was holding a fresh beating heart!


    As for the person who had challenged Zhou Feng, the spear in his hand had merely pierced through Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh before his bones blocked it.


    ¡°It is still as refreshing as before!¡±


    1


    Zhou Feng clenched his right hand tightly and crushed the fresh heart.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face finally showed a trace of emotion¡ªtraces of excitement!


    Compared to hiding, this kind of head-on confrontation was much more refreshing.


    These people in front of him actually couldn¡¯t even give a sign of a great crisis. They were truly pieces of trash!


    The so-called three great holy lands were only so-so!

 Chapter 428 - h

    Since the beginning of the battle, the AI had been using Hexadirectional Calculation to predict the good and bad.


    However, Zhou Feng soon realized that almost no one present posed any threat to him.


    In fact, it was even less dangerous than the Cold Wind mountain range.


    It was precisely because of this that he did not dodge and used the most brutal method to crush his opponent.


    ¡°Don¡¯t come over! I¡¯ll crush this little lady to death if you come any closer!¡±


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude naturally caused the others to retaliate.


    It was unknown when, but someone had grabbed Li Rong by the neck.


    Li Rong gnashed her teeth and did not utter a word.


    Obviously, these people wanted to use Li Rong as their shield. After all, Zhou Feng came here to start a massacre. No matter how one looked at it, it was all because of Li Rong.


    Now that the hostage was secured, the hearts of the disciples of the three great holy lands finally relaxed.


    Fortunately, they had a hostage!


    If they allowed this lunatic to kill randomly, then this stronghold was very likely to be lost.


    They had to take revenge! They had to invite a Dragon Transformation expert to deal with Zhou Feng.


    However, they could not continue to agitate Zhou Feng.


    If Zhou Feng threw caution to the wind, all of them would be doomed in the end.


    None of the people present were naive enough to think that they could make Zhou Feng surrender by relying on a hostage.


    No one would be so stupid!


    Surrender was equivalent to handing over Zhou Feng and the hostage¡¯s life.


    ¡®As long as I can make this lunatic feel apprehensive!¡¯


    Ying Qu swallowed his saliva. He did not know when it started, but his back was covered in sweat.


    However, just when everyone thought that they could show off and appease Zhou Feng, the latter began to gather the Great Void Primordial Qi crazily.


    The seemingly solid Great Void Primordial Qi displayed a metal-like cold color as it turned into a spear.


    Under the sunlight, this condensed spear was flowing with a soul-stirring cold light.


    ¡°You! You¡­ You can¡¯t be!¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude, the person who tightly grabbed Li Rong¡¯s neck instantly panicked.


    The strength in his hand increased crazily.


    ¡°Cough! Cough!¡±


    Li Rong¡¯s cultivation had been sealed, and her body could not use a trace of strength.


    As such, she began to struggle due to the lack of oxygen.


    However, it was all in vain. That powerful force almost made Li Rong fall unconscious.


    Zhou Feng regained his indifference, and that trace of excitement disappeared without a trace as he hurled the spear with all his strength!


    That long spear with a cold light was like silver lightning.


    ¡°No! You can¡¯t do this!¡±


    The long spear instantly stabbed Li Rong and the person holding Li Rong¡¯s neck!


    Li Rong collapsed on the ground, while the one holding her was pinned against a big tree without the slightest trace of strength to resist.


    Fresh blood dripped down from the two corpses bit by bit.


    The dripping sound wasn¡¯t loud, but it stomped on everyone¡¯s hearts.


    What should they do? Now that the hostage was gone, how could they make Zhou Feng hold back!?


    ¡°I knew it! To be able to cultivate to such an extent as a vagabond cultivator, how could he be the kind of person who is trapped by friendship?¡±


    1


    Using a cultivator¡¯s good friend to threaten a cultivator was a very stupid action.


    This was because not only did a cultivator possess extraordinary power, but their lifespan was also very long.


    This caused many cultivators to be indifferent toward family and love.


    After all, the human heart was fickle, and only eternal power was the most important goal in life.


    Moreover, everyone knew that as long as you surrendered, it was equivalent to suicide.


    No one would obediently follow what they had said before and let the hostage go as long as you surrendered.


    On the contrary, as long as you surrendered, they would kill you along with the hostages.


    Countless tragic precedents had let cultivators know what to do in the face of such a situation.


    Even if it was very cruel, one person dying was better than two people dying together.


    Although the three great holy lands had used Li Rong to threaten Zhou Feng, they did not hold much hope. They only wanted to disgust Zhou Feng so that he would know what he was facing and retreat.


    However, they did not expect Zhou Feng to be so powerful. The moment the Invincible Avatar appeared, it instantly suppressed everyone present.


    All sorts of divine abilities and methods were useless against Zhou Feng, while the latter acted as if he was strolling leisurely, casually killing a person with a single move.


    Such elegance had completely exceeded the understanding of everyone present.


    Even the Holy Sons and Holy Maidens were only so-so!


    When Ying Qu saw that the last card in his hand was gone, he instantly felt a chill run down his spine, and a sense of terror arose spontaneously.


    ¡®How exactly did this thief cultivate!?¡¯


    At this moment, Jiang Yi had the same thought. He completely did not understand why Zhou Feng had improved so quickly. He had not seen him for a few months, and they suffered a crushing defeat this time.


    That kind of crushing defeat that made people despair.


    ¡°Then, let¡¯s continue!¡±


    Zhou Feng once again used his Great Void Primordial Qi to condense a bow and arrow.


    His calm tone made people feel terrified, and they could not help but want to run.


    ¡°Run!¡±


    ¡°Run out of the Cold Wind mountain range and ask the Elders to deal with this person!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    These heaven¡¯s favorites, in the eyes of countless people, scattered and fled in different directions.


    After all, they were the elite disciples of the three great holy lands!


    Among them were the so-called fairies from the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    But now, these fairies were all disheveled and in a panic. They wished that they could grow a few more pairs of legs and escape from this terrifying place.


    An arrow shot out and directly pierced the first person who escaped from a strange direction.


    ¡°No! The teleportation talisman is actually useless? Impossible!¡±


    A tragic voice echoed.


    Some people also realized that their teleportation talismans were useless!


    The teleportation talisman was a high-quality product personally made by a Talisman Master.


    Once activated, it could instantly teleport people hundreds of kilometers away. It could even take effect in some small mystic realms.


    Many people used this life-saving trump card as their last resort.


    Unexpectedly, this life-saving trump card failed!


    This naturally caused panic!


    Escape? There was no way to escape!


    Zhou Feng shot his arrows with the AI¡¯s assistance. No one could block the void arrows.


    Using the teleportation talisman? It was also useless.


    This was because Zhou Feng had already set up a sealing formation nearby.


    After all, Jiang Yi had used a similar method to lock Zhou Feng in the past.


    These elite disciples would definitely have their life-saving trump cards.


    Zhou Feng naturally did not want to let anyone go.


    Hence, after receiving the news that Li Rong was captured, he did not act immediately.


    Instead, he chose to quietly set up a simple sealing formation nearby.


    For this, he even used all his brainpower to calculate and postpone the other plans.


    As expected, Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were completely correct.


    The teleportation talisman was temporarily ineffective!


    ¡°Kill! Kill him!¡±


    The people present no longer hoped to escape, so they could only charge at Zhou Feng in despair.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng was still standing where he was. His entire body was shining brightly, and his Blood Qi was like the sea.


    The unfathomable Great Void Primordial Qi suddenly erupted at its full power and surged in all directions, drowning these so-called geniuses.


    He was using his full power now!

 Chapter 429 - h

    The violent Great Void Primordial Qi constantly surged in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    And this degree was just maintained at the limit of his physical body¡¯s collapse point.


    Under the control of the AI, Zhou Feng perfectly displayed the strength of his entire body.


    This very minute movement was something that other cultivators found difficult to carry out.


    After all, there were too many restrictions and obstacles stopping them from doing so. Only with the powerful assistance of the AI¡¯s computational power could all of this be accomplished.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi was a strange form of energy that originated from the great void.


    There were countless mysteries within it. Even with the help of the AI, Zhou Feng could not fully analyze the source of this power.


    However, this was enough.


    Ying Qu was sent flying with a punch!


    Following that, a domineering power poured into his entire body.


    Zhou Feng was like a cold, ruthless machine, crazily harvesting the lives of the three great holy lands¡¯ disciples.


    In the end, only Jiang Yi was left. Zhou Feng wanted his former opponent to live until the end to deal with him.


    ¡°Do you think you can kill me?¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s emotions were complicated at this moment¡ªfrom the initial shock to numbness to the calmness now.


    No one knew that Jiang Yi once had a chance to end Zhou Feng¡¯s life.


    It was just that he had been too confident at that time. He had also underestimated Zhou Feng¡¯s potential too much.


    Zhou Feng not only completely overtook Jiang Yi in just a few months, but he even crushed Jiang Yi.


    This kind of crushing strength made the regret in Jiang Yi¡¯s heart bite into his heart like a venomous bug.


    It had been possible for him to become like this once or even directly break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    Zhou Feng slowly withdrew his Great Void Primordial Qi, leaving countless wounds on his body.


    This was Overload¡¯s price, but these kinds of seemingly serious injuries only needed less than half a minute to heal. Thus, Zhou Feng was not in a hurry at all.


    What he was more curious about was why Jiang Yi was still so confident.


    1


    He had already speculated before that it was because of the strangeness of the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Therefore, it was very difficult for a Dragon Transformation expert to enter. Once they entered, he would agitate the Yin Qi that had accumulated over 1,000 years.


    They would even wake up some Ghost Lords that were entrenched here.


    Because of this, the Cold Wind mountain range turned into the base camp of many demonic cultivators.


    Otherwise, the three holy lands would have joined hands to flatten this place long ago.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng was very curious about where Jiang Yi¡¯s confidence lay.


    ¡°I think you should know the importance of inheritance. Every cultivator who has cultivated to a certain level will do everything in their power to pass down their legacy or bloodline.


    ¡°Some almighty experts will even change their bloodlines and carve great divine abilities into their bloodlines!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As Jiang Yi spoke, he looked at the corpses all around him.


    His entire person seemed to have changed. His eyes slowly became indifferent and arrogant, and traces of noble Purple Qi rose up.


    ¡®Great ominous omen?¡¯


    Great ominous omens kept ringing in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    He didn¡¯t know what method Jiang Yi had used, but his strength had undergone an earth-shattering change.


    ¡°Bloodline inheritance! After generations of improvement and refinement, it will eventually condense into the Immortal Thearch¡¯s bloodline!


    ¡°If I can break through to the Dragon Transformation realm in the future, I¡¯ll be able to fully awaken the Immortal Thearch¡¯s bloodline and have the qualifications to chase after the Dao Children of the Central Plains¡­


    ¡°But now, because of you, this opportunity is gone!¡±


    The more Jiang Yi spoke, the calmer his face became.


    However, Zhou Feng understood that he seemed to have underestimated Jiang Yi.


    Back then, Jiang Yi indeed had the opportunity to squash Zhou Feng, but he didn¡¯t do that because this required him to burn the noblest Immortal Thearch¡¯s blood in his body.


    The Jiang Clan used to be an aristocratic clan in the Central Plains. There had been Immortal Thearch-level figures in their ancestors.


    However, because they had chosen the wrong side, the branch of Jiang Yi had fallen into disarray.


    They had no choice but to leave the Central Plains and choose to settle down in the barren Southern Border.


    Then, they joined forces with some local forces and established the Jade Sword Holy Land.


    However, to the Jiang Clan, the so-called Jade Sword Holy Land was just a temporary foothold.


    The ultimate goal of their entire clan had always been to return to the Central Plains.


    Of course, this was not because of the Central Plains and the main branch of the Jiang Clan.


    There was naturally a reason for this, and that was because the Southern Border was becoming more and more barren.


    However, the Southern Border had not been like this in the beginning.


    Or it could be said that when this world had been just born, even until the Human Emperor era, the various regions¡¯ Spirit Veins and cultivation resources were almost the same.


    But now, the current environment was the result of humans¡¯ interference.


    The Central Plains was the place where the first Human Emperor was born, and it was also once the land that didn¡¯t solely belong to the humans.


    Naturally, countless great cultivators were born, especially after the humans became the main characters of the world and banished all the races.


    Countless monstrous prodigies were born, but this also created a problem.


    There were too many monstrous prodigies, but there were only a few resources.


    There were only two ways to solve this problem, one of which was to kill each other and wait for a large number of monstrous prodigies to die.


    Naturally, they would save enough resources, but this method was too crazy.


    Then, they could only use the second method¡ªincrease the total amount! The more resources the Central Plains had, the more prodigies they could provide for.


    Thus, the mighty figures began to use supreme techniques to move the Spirit Veins and Dragon Veins that were tens of thousands of miles away to the Central Plains.


    In the beginning, the Central Plains¡¯ experts only did this to alleviate the shortage of resources.


    But later on, they discovered that as they moved more and more Spirit Veins, the Central Plains¡¯ boundary also changed.


    All kinds of fortuitous opportunities and connate numinous treasures increased, and the prodigies born became more and more ferocious.


    Breaking through to the next realm, which was previously difficult, seemed to have become simpler.


    Such a change naturally made the cultivators at the peak go crazy.


    How long had it been? They actually also felt the bottleneck that had been stuck in for 10,000 years loosen.


    In the end, the Central Plains became more and more prosperous as it literally sucked the other regions¡¯ blood.


    By the time the experts from other regions reacted, the sects and aristocratic families gathered in the Central Plains were already unrivaled.


    The entire world¡¯s Spiritual Qi and opportunities were all sucked dry by the Central Plains.


    In other places, even if you were a genius, you could only reach the peak of the Dragon Transformation realm. Only in the Central Plains could you continue to break through.


    Only clans like the Jiang Clan that had inheritances were privy to this kind of secret information.


    The rest of the people were completely unaware of the various secrets.


    And it was precisely because of this that Jiang Yi had his eyes on Zhou Feng. He wanted to break through before the age of 50.


    Only by breaking through to the Dragon Transformation realm before the age of 50 would he have the qualifications to enter the Central Plains.


    ¡°Now¡­ Everything is ruined!


    ¡°In order to kill you, I can only consume my noble bloodline! Because if I don¡¯t do this, I will die!¡±


    Jiang Yi¡¯s calm face suddenly betrayed a trace of extreme resentment.


    What followed was a heaven-changing phenomenon.


    Silver waterfalls fell, ancient trees reached the sky, and long rivers surged, dividing the land. It was like a whole new world.


    At the same time, noble Purple Qi began to linger around Jiang Yi.

 Chapter 430 - Flying into a Rage out of Humiliation

    After Jiang Yi activated the bloodline in his body, the surrounding Yin Qi seemed to have been purified.


    The beautiful scenery above his head directly projected endless amounts of Spiritual Qi.


    It was as if the world was cheering for this.


    There was a feeling that everything in the surroundings had come to life for a moment. Those lifeless trees began to sprout new buds.


    This was not the power of Jiang Yi but the power of his ancestor.


    ¡®This power¡­¡¯


    All the hair on Zhou Feng¡¯s body stood up because a horrifying power was hidden under this strange avatar.


    It made his body develop a thought that was difficult to resist.


    This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.


    Was it the power of the bloodline?


    Zhou Feng did not take the initiative to attack because he knew that Jiang Yi¡¯s current power was not his own.


    This power had a time limit. It would not do him any harm to stall for time.


    Other than that, he also needed some time to recover from his injuries.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had activated the Overload state to deal with the others.


    There were serious injuries all over his body, but these injuries had mostly recovered by now.


    He would soon be in peak condition again.


    ¡°Such noble power! It¡¯s a pity that it can only be used once!¡±


    Jiang Yi was a little addicted to this kind of power. It came from his ancestors, and it was as powerful as moving mountains and filling seas.


    Moreover, the Jiang Clan had once been so glorious.


    This was the power of the Jiang Clan, but now, they could only cultivate the so-called Sword Control.


    As they lived, many clan members even lost their original hearts.


    If they became a member of this so-called holy land, no matter how good the Southern Border was, could it be compared to a strand of hair in the Central Plains?


    At present, the Jiang Clan had no chance to return to the Central Plains.


    Such an ordinary place couldn¡¯t give birth to a true dragon.


    Furthermore, as the Central Plains had seized the fortuitous encounters in the Southern Border, the Devil that was suppressed below was about to revive.


    The Chaotian Temple was proof of this. The Chaotian Temple¡¯s arrangements and the Chaotian Dharma Sword could forever suppress that great Devil to death.


    But because the Spiritual Qi was thinner than in the past and the Spirit Vein had disappeared, the Chaotian Sword forced the Chaotian Temple to come into being again.


    They wanted people to suppress this great Devil again.


    During Jiang Yi¡¯s time in the Cold Wind mountain range, he had already thoroughly investigated why the Chaotian Temple came into being again.


    The reason was that the Chaotian Sword had already begun to fail to suppress this Devil underground.


    Now that it had reappeared, it was only to attract the cultivators¡¯ attention outside so that they could work together to suppress this Devil again.


    Unfortunately, the Southern Border was no longer the Southern Border of the past.


    The present cultivators were no longer the cultivators of the Human Emperor era.


    Everyone wanted to seize the Chaotian Sword now.


    Even Jiang Yi had the same idea. He had wanted to take this opportunity to enter the Cold Wind mountain range and take down Zhou Feng.


    He would seize Zhou Feng¡¯s Dao Seal and then find the opportunity to steal the Chaotian Sword.


    Finally, he would head to the Central Plains. He could no longer stay in such a barren land like the Southern Border.


    In order to achieve this plan, none of the disciples of the holy land who entered the Cold Wind mountain range this time were core disciples.


    Jiang Yi had stopped the core disciples from entering with all kinds of methods.


    It was also because of this that Zhou Feng was able to slaughter them so easily.


    Although these were elite holy land disciples, none of them were prodigies. Otherwise, Zhou Feng would still need some tricks to slaughter them.


    However, all these beautiful illusions had been shattered.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s growth speed was too fast, so fast that Jiang Yi couldn¡¯t imagine it.


    In order to save his life, Jiang Yi could only use his last resort.


    After an inexplicable sigh, Jiang Yi¡¯s attention turned back to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°I know you are stalling for time. Are you thinking that this power won¡¯t last for long?¡± Jiang Yi raised his hand gently. ¡°Now, I just want to tell you that I only need one palm to deal with you!¡±


    After forcefully awakening the Immortal Thearch¡¯s bloodline in his body, Jiang Yi became inexplicably arrogant. He looked at an ant as if he was another person.


    According to Jiang Yi¡¯s original nature, he would never do such a pretentious thing.


    He had suffered a loss before, so he naturally went all out when he met Zhou Feng again.


    He didn¡¯t give him any chance to live, but now he was wasting half of his time sighing.


    In the end, he even said that he would only need one palm to deal with Zhou Feng.


    This was because of the influence of Jiang Yi¡¯s ancestors. Activating the power of the bloodline would more or less change his personality.


    Moreover, this change was similar to the great cultivators of the past.


    When those great cultivators looked at someone like Zhou Feng, they were naturally incomparably arrogant.


    The subtext was: ¡°I can kill such a piece of trash with a flip of my hand.¡±


    ¡®Danger!¡¯


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t restrain the power in his entire body as it burst forth.


    Jiang Yi flipped his palm downward.


    The avatar of mountains and rivers above his head immediately changed, and a huge mountain directly pressed down.


    All the buildings nearby were turned into soil and rocks, and the old tree that had sprouted its tender shoots was also instantly destroyed.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng gathered his Great Void Primordial Qi, and golden Blood Qi burned fiercely. His entire body seemed to have turned into a brilliant sun as he punched out.


    That huge mountain was instantly smashed into pieces.


    The power that was as strong as crushing dead wood seemed to be able to shatter everything.


    However, the flowing mountain and river avatar did not change at all.


    The huge mountain was smashed into pieces by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch, but a meandering heavenly river came crashing toward him in the next second.


    Zhou Feng chose to take it head-on with his physical body, which was comparable to a spiritual weapon.


    The AI operated crazily, mobilizing every trace of Great Void Primordial Qi to resist that strange power.


    Zhou Feng finally understood why Jiang Yi was so arrogant.


    He had said that one palm could kill him here because this palm was not just one palm, but a mountain and river avatar, a world.


    Fighting against a world? Even if this was just an illusion of this world, this was not something a mere Divine Ability cultivator could fight against.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Still, Jiang Yi had underestimated Zhou Feng once again.


    Zhou Feng had been forced into a passive position countless times, and his aura was constantly rising.


    He had destroyed countless mountains and rivers in a row. Even though his face was a little pale and a trace of blood seeped out of the corner of his mouth, his eyes were spirited. His sharp gaze seemed to be able to pierce through the void.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Jiang Yi suddenly realized that his palm could not completely suppress Zhou Feng.


    It felt as if he was pressing down on a nail. The sharp tip made him feel a little pain.


    Perhaps it was because what he had said earlier didn¡¯t come true that a hint of red appeared on Jiang Yi¡¯s face. He then flew into a rage out of humiliation.


    ¡°Just a mere Divine Ability bug! Do you think you¡¯re a Dao Child? A prodigy from the Central Plains?¡±


    In an instant, the illusory image of the sun, moon, and stars circled around Jiang Yi¡¯s hand.


    After awakening the Immortal Thearch¡¯s bloodline in his body, he was an existence that could contend against a Dragon Transformation expert.


    Combined with his ancestor¡¯s supreme divine ability, killing a mere Divine Ability cultivator would be a piece of cake.


    ¡°Die for me! You bug!¡±


    Jiang Yi, who originally looked arrogant and calm, seemed to have turned into an ignited barrel of gunpowder.

 Chapter 431 - Wanted to be the Oriole?

    Jiang Yi suddenly became irritable.


    He wanted to crush Zhou Feng to death, but the latter was eerily collected.


    Zhou Feng noticed that Jiang Yi¡¯s personality had changed.


    He operated the Starseizer Steps at full power, flashing and shifting through this mountain and river.


    The golden Blood Qi was like smoke; not only did it not weaken in the slightest, but it became more and more violent.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng found the right time and turned into a star-like figure as he punched Jiang Yi¡¯s body.


    Jiang Yi immediately spat out three mouthfuls of blood, and a big hole appeared on his body.


    ¡®I lost?¡¯


    A trace of confusion appeared in Jiang Yi¡¯s eyes.


    He could not imagine how he had lost.


    Everything should have gone as he had planned. Zhou Feng should have been suppressed with a raise of his hand.


    In the end, even though he would have used up the power of the Immortal Thearch¡¯s bloodline, he would still have obtained Zhou Feng¡¯s Dao Seal.


    This was barely worth it. Without his noble bloodline in his body, there should be a glimmer of hope for him to enter the Central Plains in the future with the help of the Dao Seal.


    Moreover, all the people around him had died. Jiang Yi was not afraid that the secret of the Jiang Clan would be exposed.


    He had waited until everyone else died before taking action to protect his own secret first.


    However, an accident still happened in the end.


    He didn¡¯t know how Zhou Feng cultivated, but his strength was exaggerated to such an extent.


    Even though Jiang Yi forcefully awakened the Immortal Thearch¡¯s bloodline, he still couldn¡¯t defeat him in the end.


    Perhaps this was the so-called destiny!


    At the last second, when he lost consciousness, Jiang Yi only hated why the deities were so kind to a vagabond cultivator.


    ¡°That kind of power¡­¡±


    Seeing that Jiang Yi had lost his life force, Zhou Feng heaved a sigh of relief.


    His physical body had once again entered a state of collapse.


    His meridians were in a mess, and his flesh and blood were slowly withering. Fortunately, the AI helped him stabilize his injuries.


    Otherwise, he would not even be able to stand.


    The power that Jiang Yi had just unleashed should be the so-called inherited bloodline!


    Although Zhou Feng had long heard that the legitimate heirs of some aristocratic families could borrow the power of their bloodlines, this was a bit too exaggerated!


    He was almost defeated this time!


    It seemed that one divine ability was still far from enough. Before leaving the Cold Wind mountain range, he had to master the Bean Soldier Ability.


    This time, Zhou Feng had managed to kill so many disciples of the three great holy lands because of the right timing and geographical advantage.


    It just so happened that the Dragon Transformation experts could not enter the Cold Wind mountain range.


    At the same time, there was a Yin Qi barrier around them, so the transmission of the news was not very smooth.


    There were still a few other factors that combined to allow Zhou Feng to do all of this.


    ¡®Then, where is the hidden danger?¡¯


    Zhou Feng pretended to be paralyzed on the ground, and his aura was also suppressed to the minimum.


    From the very beginning, the AI had deduced through Hexadirectional Calculation that there was a hidden source of danger that had been lurking around and had not made a move yet.


    But he wasn¡¯t sure where it came from.


    But what he was sure of was that someone wanted to pull the old ¡°The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind¡±.


    Thus, he played along, pretending to have used all his strength and collapsed to the ground.


    In fact, the passive Tenacious Heart was triggered a few seconds ago.


    The rich Blood Qi in his body was consumed rapidly, healing his serious injuries.


    Thanks to the passive Blood Qi Recovery and Consumption Reduction, Zhou Feng had a lot of both divine power and Blood Qi in his body.


    ¡®An opportunity! Is this an opportunity? I¡¯ve been waiting for this opportunity for hundreds of years!¡¯


    Shi Li, who had been hiding in the Yin Qi, revealed a twisted smile.


    He had been waiting! Waiting for a chance to fight against the three holy lands.


    He had been waiting for hundreds of years. If he wanted to change this twisted world, if he wanted to save this world¡­ he had to use unrivaled strength. Only then would others be willing to listen to him.


    Only then would this twisted world change according to his will.


    If Shi Li relied on his natural talent, he wouldn¡¯t be able to change the world at all.


    But that didn¡¯t matter.


    As long as he used the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture, he could devour enough prodigies for his own use.


    Sooner or later, he would be able to dominate the world.


    Now, a perfect opportunity was placed in front of Shi Li.


    That¡¯s right! Shi Li¡¯s target was Zhou Feng, the exhausted Zhou Feng.


    ¡®This person is a prodigy. As long as he becomes one with me, then it¡¯ll be only a matter of time before we wipe out the three great holy lands!¡¯


    Shi Li greedily looked at Zhou Feng, whose aura was weak.


    However, he did not have the intention to make a move immediately.


    One had to be careful. Even if Zhou Feng looked weak now, the necessary probing was still very important.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    Soon, Shi Li commanded his Salvation Ghost Army to probe Zhou Feng¡¯s situation.


    After a short while, two malicious ghosts slowly floated toward Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally sensed the two malicious ghosts, and a trace of anger immediately appeared on his face.


    He burst with violent Blood Qi and instantly vaporized the two malicious ghosts.


    However, Zhou Feng looked even weaker after erupting.


    ¡®Looks like he¡¯s already at the end of his rope. I can¡¯t give this person any time to recover!¡¯


    When Shi Li saw this, he instantly became impatient.


    He had to take advantage of Zhou Feng¡¯s weakness to devour his soul immediately. Otherwise, Zhou Feng would recover in a while.


    Things would be troublesome!


    When he thought of this, Shi Li did not hide anymore. He controlled a stream of Yin Qi and brought the Salvation Ghost Army to the stage.


    However, he did not know that Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes revealed a trace of playfulness.


    ¡®So this is the so-called hidden danger? A Ghost King?¡¯


    He had seen many malicious ghosts, Yin Beasts, and Devil Souls in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    However, this was the first time he had encountered a Ghost King.


    The Ghost King in the lead seemed to have many kinds of auras as if countless people were mixed together.


    The ghost soldiers behind him were arranged in rows, forming an army formation.


    Once this army formation was formed, the surrounding Yin Qi seemed to have fallen under strict control, continuously condensing.


    ¡®So, this is the person who wants to be the oriole?¡¯


    Zhou Feng deduced through Hexadirectional Calculation that the Ghost King before him was the final hidden danger.


    ¡®Then¡­ I don¡¯t need to continue pretending!¡¯


    During this period, he had relied on his perseverance and various passive recovery buffs to recover his strength.


    His injuries were already 80-90% healed.


    There was no problem for him to continue fighting.


    ¡°How is this possible!?¡±


    After Shi Li felt that Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had returned to its peak, an expression of surprise appeared on his face.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Why did he suddenly come back to life with full health?


    ¡®Just now¡­¡¯


    At that moment, Shi Li felt like his brain was overloaded.


    He really could not figure out what was going on.


    ¡°Soul Punch!¡±


    Shi Li may not understand what was going on, but Zhou Feng did not hold back at all.


    The Soul Punch greeted Shi Li, who wanted to be the oriole.


    This kind of soul attack was super effective against ghosts, instakilling them effortlessly.

 Chapter 432 - Surrender at the Speed of Light?

    Shi Li suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.


    His Ghost King body actually shattered in the next second, and even the ghost army around him instantly collapsed.


    ¡°Soul attack? No!¡±


    He instantly recognized this was a soul attack.


    As a Ghost King, Shi Li was actually able to ignore many kinds of attacks.


    Only a few attacks were effective besides powerful lightning and the unstoppable Sword Qi.


    And soul attacks were super effective against Shi Li. To begin with, he didn¡¯t have a physical body, so he would suffer heavy damage when facing soul attacks without the body as a protective shell.


    At that time, his soul may even shatter, and he wouldn¡¯t even have the chance to reincarnate.


    Ghosts could only gain physical bodies when they reached the Ghost Lord rank. Extreme Yin gave birth to Yang. Only by reassembling a physical body would a ghost have a certain level of protection against soul attacks.


    ¡°I can¡¯t die! I can¡¯t de!¡±


    Shi Li¡¯s strong obsession with changing the world and reviving his childhood sweetheart forced him to make a choice.


    ¡°Ghost Slave Seal!¡±


    Shi Li¡¯s soul directly dissipated and turned into a seal.


    It shot toward Zhou Feng¡¯s arm so fast that the latter didn¡¯t manage to react in time.


    ¡°What?¡±


    Zhou Feng was frightened because his hand seemed to be wrapped up with something.


    It shouldn¡¯t be like that!


    He had the AI, Hexadirectional Calculation, and the passive Battle Instincts. Thus, he should have dodged it in an instant. Yet, why had it not happened this time?


    Soon, he understood what was going on.


    Zhou Feng felt as if he could control a ghost at will.


    If he wanted to, he could even crush Shi Li attached to his arm in an instant.


    ¡°Don¡¯t! My life is in your hands now. Spare me!


    ¡°I know many secrets about the Cold Wind mountain range! And all my treasures are yours, Master!¡±


    Shi Li surrendered at the speed of light after sensing Zhou Feng¡¯s killing intent.


    Ghost Slave Seal!


    This was a method to control ghosts and was often used in the ghost army.


    As long as one was imprinted with the Ghost Slave Seal, one would have to work for the Ghost King for the rest of their life.


    One couldn¡¯t even commit suicide.


    At the critical moment, Shi Li used the Reverse Ghost Slave Seal.


    He forcefully became Zhou Feng¡¯s ghost slave in order to survive.


    Shi Li¡¯s idea was actually very simple. Only by surviving could he have a chance to achieve his goal in his heart.


    And once his soul dispersed, there would be nothing left.


    For this reason, it wouldn¡¯t be a big deal, even if he became someone else¡¯s slave.


    Anyway, after transforming into a Ghost King and cultivating the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture, Shi Li¡¯s lifespan was as long as 1,000 years.


    If he improved in the future, he could even live longer.


    There was nothing he could not do!


    Compared to other cultivators, the ghost cultivators had the advantage in terms of lifespan.


    There were even some desperate old cultivators who chose to abandon their physical bodies and become ghost cultivators in order to survive.


    ¡°Ghost Slave Seal?¡±


    This time, it was Zhou Feng¡¯s turn to be a little dumbfounded.


    He had never encountered such a situation before. What kind of situation was this?


    Someone in this world actually took the initiative to become someone else¡¯s slave!?


    It was really strange!


    Zhou Feng was very clear that Shi Li wasn¡¯t lying.


    As long as he willed it, Shi Li would instantly die an unnatural death.


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t the only dumbfounded party. Shi Li¡¯s ghost army was also astonished.


    Why did their leader suddenly surrender?


    Moreover, he surrendered so quickly that Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t react in time.


    Then what should they do now?


    Their original enemy had become their boss. What was going on now!?


    That¡¯s right! Although Shi Li used the Reverse Ghost Slave Seal, the ghost army was still under Shi Li¡¯s control.


    Zhou Feng probably wouldn¡¯t have thought that after Shi Li entered the Cold Wind mountain range, he had been studying this Ghost Slave Seal for nearly 100 years.


    This was because Shi Li was very clear that his luck was just a little good. No matter how much ghost cultivators bragged, it was just an unorthodox cultivation path.


    It might be possible to become a king in a corner of the world, but changing the world was a bit of a dream.


    Hence, in order to prevent himself from being destroyed one day, Shi Li developed a method to force the enemy to take him as a slave.


    In the future, if he was in imminent danger¡­ he would be able to use this method to save his own life forcefully.


    It seemed that no one would be able to refuse a free slave. Moreover, this slave was 100% loyal and led thousands of ghost soldiers.


    Even the so-called righteous cultivators would consider if it would be too much of a loss to kill him when he could provide such help.


    ¡°My Ghost King body is also an excellent material for refining artifacts! It¡¯s also an excellent choice to sell it to others!¡±


    Shi Li continued to show his value.


    The purpose was to let Zhou Feng understand his value and not kill him without a second thought.


    Zhou Feng was rendered speechless upon understanding what was happening,


    ¡®What on Earth is going on!?¡¯


    Although he had been complaining in his heart, he was really tempted.


    This seemed to be an excellent research material, and he was still a little interested in the so-called ghost cultivators.


    It was a good opportunity to use the AI for analysis and research and obtain something out of it.


    Also, this Shi Li seemed to be able to be refined into a dao soldier!


    Refining a Ghost King with a spirit bean would eliminate the spirit-awakening step.


    It could greatly shorten the process of refining a dao weapon.


    Before long, he would enter the initial stage of the Bean Soldiers Ability.


    ¡°Good. Order your ghost army to enter this bottle!¡±


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng temporarily put out the thought of getting rid of Shi Li and ordered the latter to command the ghost army. Soon, the ghosts entered the Yin Absorption Bottle in his hand.


    This spiritual tool was specially used to store ghosts, and it was also one of his spoils of war.


    Seeing that Zhou Feng spared his life, Shi Li naturally did not dare to have any objections to Zhou Feng¡¯s words.


    He commanded the ghost army to enter the Yin Absorption Bottle.


    After dealing with all of this, Zhou Feng finally had the time to turn around and look at Li Rong.


    He saw that Li Rong¡¯s face was pale as she looked at Zhou Feng with a complicated expression.


    Li Rong had not died!


    Does everyone still remember the Death Substitution Gu Zhou Feng had given to Li Rong?


    That was a true life-saving trump card.


    Zhou Feng could sense the Death Substitution Gu¡¯s aura on Li Rong¡¯s body, so he hadn¡¯t hesitated to ¡®kill¡¯ her with the one using her as a shield.


    Li Rong had already come back to life through the Death Substitution Gu, but her body was very weak.


    Li Rong had not died, but the Li clansmen were all dead.


    Just from the aftermath of the battle just now.


    The crippled Li clansmen had all been affected by the earlier battle¡¯s aftershocks.


    How could Li Rong accept this? Besides the three great holy lands, Zhou Feng was the one who caused all this.


    Therefore, Li Rong could only look at Zhou Feng with a complicated expression.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was calm as he faced the perplexed Li Rong.


    ¡°The weak are prey to the strong. This is the basic rule of this world. I¡¯m sorry!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say anything more. He only took out the Crystal Warm Jade that Li Rong had given him before and handed it to her.

 Chapter 433 - Body of Thorns

    After this incident, Zhou Feng and Li Rong could be considered strangers.


    The two of them were not on the same level, so the best outcome would naturally be to go their separate ways.


    That was why Zhou Feng took out the Spiritual Crystal Warm Jade and returned it to Li Rong.


    This item had indeed been helpful to him, but its effect on him had become negligible after obtaining the AI.


    Since that was the case, it was better to return it to Li Rong.


    When Li Rong saw the Crystal Warm Jade in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand, she remained silent for a while.


    She did not say anything and just took it silently.


    It was evident that Li Rong had already made up her mind.


    Zhou Feng had broken through to the Divine Ability realm in such a short time, and his battle prowess was exaggerated to the point of being abnormal.


    From the corpses around him, one could tell how fast Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation had increased.


    They were already not on the same level, so it was better to take this opportunity to separate.


    In fact, this was also the main reason many of the cultivators who had been childhood sweethearts separated.


    In the later stages of cultivation, the difference of one realm was akin to the difference between people from two different worlds.


    Once one of them could not keep up, they would be abandoned. This was an extremely realistic situation.


    This was also the reason prodigies would only associate themselves with other prodigies.


    ¡°Take care!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not have the intention of sending Li Rong out.


    Since he wanted to break it off, he might as well be straightforward and not overanalyze.


    He had killed so many people from the three great holy lands that they would definitely investigate what was going on.


    There was also the Yin Qi that was constantly dispersing in the surroundings. This proved that the Cold Wind mountain range was not safe either.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng had to take this opportunity to increase his strength quickly.


    There was also Shi Li, who had forcefully become his slave. He also wanted to study the slave seal carefully.


    Finally, he took a look at the skill panel and found that the progress bar was full.


    This meant that he could draw new passive skills.


    All these things were waiting for him to deal with one by one.


    Without any hesitation, he directly chose to return to the cave abode.


    Not only was the cave protected by the formation, but it was also located in the depths of the mountain range.


    It shouldn¡¯t be a problem to hide from the three holy lands for the time being.


    Another thing was that the incomplete cultivation techniques were no longer of any use to him.


    Once he gathered his strength and comprehended the second divine ability, he could go to the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins to try his luck.


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t wanted to explore the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins in the past because it was too dangerous. Although the connate numinous treasure was tempting, it wasn¡¯t worth it compared to his passive skills.


    But now, Zhou Feng felt that if he had a connate numinous treasure to protect him, his chances of reaching the Dragon Transformation realm would increase.


    The power that Jiang Yi had stimulated by burning his bloodline should be close to the power of the Dragon Transformation realm!


    But even so, he had still been able to finish off Jiang Yi.


    This had boosted his confidence greatly.


    Therefore, he was eager to return to the cave abode.


    Of course, it was necessary to loot the corpses as usual before this!


    Therefore, Li Rong watched Zhou Feng quickly plunder all the storage bags and rings.


    Then, he turned into a ray of starlight and disappeared into the Cold Wind mountain range.


    ¡®I can¡¯t catch up to him anymore?¡¯


    Li Rong held the Crystal Warm Jade in her hand, and her heart was surprisingly calm at this moment.


    After experiencing the destruction of her clan, her state of mind seemed to have undergone a transformation, and all the distracting thoughts in the past had now completely disappeared.


    There was only one thought left in her heart¡ªthat was cultivation! All the way to the end of cultivation!


    There was also a competition between Zhou Feng to see who could walk ahead on the path of cultivation.


    Even if she surpassed Zhou Feng one day, Li Rong still wanted to question him face to face.


    Although Li Rong had had the opportunity to question him, the current Li Rong did not have the courage.


    That¡¯s right! Facing the Divine Ability Zhou Feng, Li Rong did not dare to question him.


    Even if anger was brewing in her heart, she could only silently curse in her heart.


    She was far less at ease than when she faced Zhou Feng in the past.


    At that time, Li Rong had still been the Li Clan¡¯s favored daughter, while Zhou Feng was just an ordinary vagabond cultivator.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng had already returned to the cave abode and was checking if the formation had undergone any changes.


    ¡°Very good! Now, let¡¯s see the new passive skill!¡±


    He locked himself in the isolation room as usual, hoping that the passive skill this time would be more effective. He needed more powerful passive skills to deal with the current situation.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng gave the order.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Body of Thorns: Your opponent will receive 15% of the damage they inflicted on you.


    2


    (Note: The other passive buffs can augment this passive skill.)


    ¡°Good stuff!¡±


    1


    Zhou Feng was delighted because this passive skill was very compatible with his current situation.


    Originally, because he cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture and had all sorts of passive skills, his physical body was already very strong.


    He even often used the battle method of exchanging injuries for injuries.


    Now that he had this passive Body of Thorns, it was simply like adding wings to a tiger.


    The best part was that this passive skill seemed to be able to help him fight beyond his level.


    Zhou Feng had a certain understanding of the Dragon Transformation realm.


    The Dragon Transformation cultivators¡¯ bodies were transformed with the help of soul power.


    Their physical bodies were akin to a carp transforming into a dragon, freeing them from the shackles of the mortal body.


    Dragon Transformation cultivators had very strong recovery abilities, somewhat similar to the passive Tenacious Heart.


    Injuring a Level 9 Dragon Transformation expert was absurdly difficult.


    A Level 9 Dragon Transformation expert could already achieve the level of limb regeneration.


    Blood regeneration was not a very difficult thing for some monsters.


    It could be said that from the beginning of the Dragon Transformation realm, the survival ability of a cultivator increased rapidly. It was far from being as easy to kill as it was in the previous realm.


    Therefore, when facing a Dragon Transformationexpert, one would need incomparable destructive power if they wanted to fight against someone of a higher realm.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s current situation, there was a high probability that he could injure a Dragon Transformation realm expert. Still, it would be impossible to kill or seriously injure said expert.


    Unexpectedly, it was now possible to seriously injure a Dragon Transformation expert with the passive Body of Thorns¡¯ reflect effect.


    Moreover, this passive skill had another very important point.


    That was that the passive Body of Thorns could receive the buffs from other passive skills.


    This was listed separately.


    For example, the passive Fighting Spirit normally only buffed Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body.


    Now, it could be buff passive Body of Thorns, making the counterattack even more severe.


    1


    ¡°In this way, won¡¯t I become a hedgehog?¡±


    2


    Zhou Feng suppressed his excitement.


    This new passive skill was another huge improvement for him.


    It was time to deal with Shi Li now.


    From the start, Shi Li had attached himself to his arm. He only needed a thought to crush Shi Li¡¯s soul.


    In fact, he was also very curious as to why Shi Li had done this.


    He did not look like a madman!

 Chapter 434 - Be Careful in your Next Life!

    ¡°Come out!¡± Zhou Feng ordered Shi Li to leave his arm.


    After receiving the order, Shi Li didn¡¯t hesitate and turned into a ball of Ghost Qi and appeared in front of him.


    Moreover, he looked at him with a fawning expression.


    ¡°How did you manage to become my slave forcefully?¡±


    Did he have a straightforward personality?


    The moment Shi Li appeared, Zhou Feng voiced the question in his heart.


    This kind of method of forcefully recognizing a master was really very rare.


    ¡°This is something that I obtained by modifying the Ghost Slave Seal. The Ghost Slave Seal¡­¡±


    Shi Li did not dare to hide anything and told Zhou Feng everything that he knew.


    This was because he did not want to die. Not only did he not want to die, but he also wanted to continue increasing his strength.


    He wanted to change this world. Shi Li had never wavered from his goals and dreams.


    He handed over his life to Zhou Feng when the situation was bad.


    This was the best choice under the circumstances.


    If he hadn¡¯t done this, he would have died.


    Now, not only would he not die, but he might even benefit from this misfortune.


    From the moment Zhou Feng returned to the cave, Shi Li knew that he had made the right bet.


    This person was a mystery. He had a base in the Cold Wind mountain range, and the Spiritual Qi was even denser than outside.


    There was definitely a Spirit Gathering Formation. Apart from his astounding battle prowess, this person was a Formation Master as well?


    Shi Li could see Zhou Feng¡¯s potential.


    Zhou Feng might be able to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm, and Shi li would become the dog ascending to heaven with him.


    Also, this Ghost Slave Seal was not completely safe.


    While improving the Reverse Ghost Slave Seal, Shi Li had already thought of the current situation.


    Therefore, he had deliberately left a flaw.


    This flaw would appear when Shi Li reached the Ghost Lord rank.


    If he operated it properly, he might have a chance to escape.


    And as his realm increased, this flaw would become bigger and bigger.


    ¡®I have to stabilize this person! I have to work hard to become his right-hand man.¡¯


    Shi Li quickly set his mind straight. He tried his best to forget the thought of escaping in the future and played the role of ghost slave.


    ¡°Ghost Slave Seal?¡±


    Zhou Feng listened while the AI recorded the Ghost Slave Seal.


    After that, he might be able to create a new divine ability.


    ¡°Then tell me everything you know about cultivation techniques.¡±


    It was rare for him to catch a Ghost King who was so cooperative. Naturally, Zhou Feng wanted all of Shi Li¡¯s cultivation techniques to become a part of the AI¡¯s database.


    ¡°No problem!¡±


    Shi Li was very cooperative and told him everything he knew about cultivation techniques.


    Shi Li cultivated the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture and had devoured countless living souls.


    Thus, he had learned numerous incomplete cultivation techniques.


    This gave Zhou Feng a pleasant surprise.


    Such a large number of incomplete cultivation techniques were basically of little value to normal cultivators because they were too scattered and couldn¡¯t be cultivated at all.


    However, if they were used as reference materials, these were all excellent reference materials.


    The AI could bring out their advantages.


    ¡°Not bad.¡±


    Zhou Feng nodded as if he was very satisfied with Shi Li¡¯s initiative to cooperate.


    ¡°Then the next question is, why did you do it?¡±


    Shi Li calmly recounted his story. He spoke in detail about his humiliation, word by word, and even told him about the death that had stigmatized him.


    He truly did not hide anything about his past.


    ¡°I only did this to take revenge! To take revenge on those aristocratic families and direct descendants who were born high and mighty!¡±


    When Shi Li said this, he immediately put on an expression of gnashing his teeth.


    As for his later dream of changing the entire world, he didn¡¯t say it out loud.


    The truest lie in this world was to tell half the truth.


    A lie was always a lie, and there was always a chance that others would expose it.


    But if it was the truth, then no one would be able to expose it. After all, it was the truth.


    However, half of the truth was completely different from the truth.


    Sometimes, the meaning of the same sentence was completely different due to the difference in expression.


    Shi Li intended to stir up the anger in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    Zhou Feng was a powerful vagabond cultivator, and he must have definitely been bullied until he reached his current level.


    As such, sharing his bitter experience would definitely stir up Zhou Feng¡¯s anger.


    And this was only the first step.


    ¡°I¡¯ve prepared for this for hundreds of years! I¡¯ve also accumulated cultivation resources for hundreds of years! These things are all in my original base!¡±


    After stirring Zhou Feng¡¯s anger, this would mean that Shi Li and Zhou Feng had the same experience, so they should be able to sympathize.


    After all, everyone in the Cold Wind mountain range had been persecuted before, so they could be considered brothers with similar interests.


    After empathy came the temptation of benefits¡ªthe accumulated cultivation resources.


    Most cultivators¡¯ hearts would definitely be moved upon learning this.


    This was because these resources were completely safe to obtain.


    Shi Li had previously displayed a strong desire to survive, but now, Zhou Feng held Shi Li¡¯s little life in his hands.


    Therefore, in order to survive, Shi Li would never play any tricks.


    In this way, Zhou Feng was gradually stabilized by Shi Li.


    After swallowing countless living souls, Shi Li¡¯s control over people¡¯s hearts could be said to be perfect.


    First of all, most cultivators had no way to resist the temptation of benefits.


    Wasn¡¯t this the equivalent of a pie falling from the sky? Moreover, the source of the pie was clear, and there was no conspiracy at all.


    Normal people would only have absolute destiny in their hands.


    They wouldn¡¯t think of anything else.


    ¡°Several hundred years of accumulated cultivation resources?¡± Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I once discovered a Yin Vein and nurtured it for 200 years. Then, I dug it out.


    ¡°If Master sells all these Yin Stones outside, you should be able to exchange them for many cultivation resources!¡±


    Shi Li emphasized that protecting him would allow Zhou Feng to obtain many benefits.


    Since ancient times, only benefits were the most attractive.


    Shi Li was also well-versed in this and wanted to tie his neck with real benefits.


    ¡°And only I know where the Yin Stones are buried!¡±


    Of course, what followed the temptation of benefits was showcasing his importance.


    Therefore, Shi Li added another sentence at the end.


    ¡°Yin Stones¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng knew about the so-called Yin Stone. It was also a kind of Spirit Stone, but it also contained pure Yin Qi in addition to Spiritual Qi.


    It was the basic resource for ghost cultivation, and it could also be used to refine weapons and set up formations.


    If what Shi Li said was true and he had emptied an entire Yin Vein, then this wealth was not small.


    After Zhou Feng learned everything he wanted to know, he simply nodded and moved with a thought. ¡°If that¡¯s the case, pay attention in your next life!¡±


    ¡°Fortunately, the first step has been taken¡ª¡¯


    Initially, when Shi Li heard the first half of the sentence, he thought that he had succeeded. However, the second half of the sentence stunned him.

 Chapter 435 - Information Exposed

    Shi Li¡¯s soul core instantly dissipated with a mere thought from Zhou Feng.


    Following that, Shi Li¡¯s life also ended.


    After Shi Li realized that something was wrong, he was utterly perplexed.


    ¡®Why!? Why did he choose to do this!? Could it be that he couldn¡¯t tell what was going on!?¡¯


    As long as Zhou Feng spared his life, he would make a huge harvest. Other than a large number of cultivation resources, he would also have a Ghost King slave!


    Wasn¡¯t this good?


    Even if Zhou Feng had to eliminate Shi Li for some reason, he could still wait.


    Was there a need to be so impatient?


    ¡°What a pity¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng shook his head as he collected Shi Li¡¯s dispersed soul.


    To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s prediction¡ªShil Li would put him in danger in the future¡ªZhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have taken action.


    Still, he had to do this in order to eradicate the root of the problem.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t tolerate any hidden dangers.


    As for what Shi Li had said, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care much. Even though he lacked cultivation resources, his passive skills were his foundation. He could still compete for cultivation resources with a good body of skills.


    If he collected Shi Li¡¯s cultivation resources, he would leave behind a hidden danger.


    Zhou Feng had done some calculations and felt that it wasn¡¯t worth it, so he immediately took action.


    However, Shi Li¡¯s death wasn¡¯t without value.


    At the very least, the dispersed soul could nourish the spirit beans that had just been planted.


    With Shi Li¡¯s soul nourishing them, he would definitely be able to refine powerful dao soldiers when the spirit beans matured.


    After getting rid of this hidden danger, Zhou Feng steadily increased his strength.


    Meanwhile, the three great holy lands outside the Cold Wind mountain range weren¡¯t in such a good mood.


    ¡°Fake! This is definitely fake!¡±


    ¡°Impossible! Those who can enter the Cold Wind mountain range are all elite disciples!¡±


    ¡°Although there aren¡¯t any Dragon Transformation experts following them, they definitely won¡¯t be wiped out so easily.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Those old ghosts in the Cold Wind mountain range didn¡¯t make a move. I can¡¯t think of anyone who could do this!¡±


    Naturally, it was difficult to accept that all the elite disciples had been wiped out.


    This was almost impossible to happen.


    Even though the geographical conditions of the Cold Wind mountain range were complicated and Dragon Transformation experts couldn¡¯t enter, the demonic Dragon Transformation cultivators and Ghost Lords had not made any movements either.


    This was something that the three great holy lands could confirm.


    It was precisely because they knew that no Dragon Transformation experts would make a move that it was hard to imagine who could kill all the elite disciples that had entered the mountain range.


    This was clearly something impossible.


    It was even easier for people to accept the claim that a Yin Beast stampede had annihilated them.


    But the truth was the truth, even if they didn¡¯t want to admit it.


    Nonetheless, it was easy to investigate this matter as Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t tried to cover his tracks before he left.


    When the three great holy lands sent people to enter the Cold Wind mountain range again, they were shocked by the corpses lying all over the ground.


    This was simply a massacre!


    This was a massacre of overwhelming strength.


    Most of the people had almost no signs of resistance.


    It was almost an insta-kill!


    Moreover, these kinds of wounds and the lingering aura were all very similar to a certain person¡¯s style¡ªZhou Feng!


    That¡¯s right! It was the vagabond cultivator on the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s wanted list.


    Those wounds were exactly the same as the ones of the people that Zhou Feng had killed previously.


    There was also the symbolic Great Void Primordial Qi.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land had found its origin! This was the long-lost symbolic ability of Human Emperor Great Void.


    Although it had been lost for a long time, some knowledgeable people could still recognize it.


    Besides, the three holy lands had really invested a lot this time in order to eliminate Zhou Feng. They had employed all kinds of means and resources for the sake of accurate information.


    ¡°I can confirm that the target is still in the Cold Wind mountain range!


    ¡°Also, the target seems to have mastered a mysterious technique. It is very difficult to deduce his exact location, even with the help of a curse!¡±


    Fairy Qing¡¯s expression was solemn.


    She did not expect that Zhou Feng would grow so quickly.


    During the Celestial Lake Conference, she had been sitting on the high platform, watching Zhou Feng fight in the arena.


    At that time, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had been just so-so.


    Although he was somewhat outstanding, he was still too inexperienced.


    But now, Zhou Feng had not only broken through to the Divine Ability realm, but his battle prowess had reached an astonishing level.


    Even Jiang Yi had fallen.


    One had to know that Jiang Yi was a prodigy who was on par with her, yet he died at Zhou Feng¡¯s hands for no apparent reason.


    ¡°I need more specific information!¡±


    Sima Di¡¯s expression was a little gloomy at this moment. All the Great Sun elites had died at the hands of one person.


    He had to take revenge for this!


    When Fairy Qing heard this, she did not think any further and continued to share specific information about Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This person seems to have obtained the inheritance of two Human Emperors! Before reaching the Divine Ability realm, he cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture, and after that, he cultivated the Great Void Primordial Art!


    ¡°It¡¯s all related to the former Human Emperors, and he succeeded in cultivating their techniques!¡±


    Fairy Qing was a little shocked when she mentioned the Human Emperor Scriptures.


    The Human Emperor Scriptures were cultivation techniques from many years ago, and they were already unsuitable for this era.


    However, some people forcefully cultivated them, and they even succeeded in cultivating them.


    ¡°Human Emperors? The cultivation techniques from two different Human Emperors?¡±


    ¡°In this way, we can be sure that he is a vagabond cultivator!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Those who cultivate the Human Emperor Scriptures are definitely vagabond cultivators. I just don¡¯t know how he cultivated them successfully!¡±


    After listening to Fairy Qing¡¯s explanation, the surrounding people heaved a sigh of relief.


    In fact, after the three great holy lands received the news, apart from shock and disbelief, there was also a sense of fear.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was similar to that of a monstrous prodigy from the Central Plains.


    Only those monsters from the Central Plains could be so abnormal.


    And a monster that could come out from the Central Plains definitely had an unfathomable force behind it.


    If they offended those large aristocratic families of the Central Plains, they would be in trouble.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng cultivated the Human Emperor Scriptures, outdated techniques. They were not a coherent inheritance.


    It could be seen that Zhou Feng was a relatively lucky vagabond cultivator.


    ¡°And according to the people who fought with Zhou Feng, this person¡­¡±


    ¡°He also has a Mountain Spirit Hound by his side, and it seems that it has returned to its ancestral¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Fairy Qing shared all the information about Zhou Feng in one breath.


    She didn¡¯t even let go of Big Yellow.


    She had even figured out some of Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills.


    Of course, Fairy Qing didn¡¯t know about all kinds of passive skills. She only knew that Zhou Feng seemed to have cultivated a lot of miscellaneous techniques and had many strange abilities.


    For example, she had found out about the speed at which his injuries recovered, that the longer he fought, the greater his strength would be, and even his immunity to poisons.


    Zhou Feng had fought with many people back in Celestial Lake City, so it was relatively easy to gather this information.

 Chapter 436 - Dispatch Dragon Transformation Elders!

    ¡°Based on the current information, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength is definitely the best among the Divine Ability cultivators!¡±


    ¡°I suggest letting the Dragon Transformation Elders take action!¡±


    ¡°Seconded!¡±


    After fully understanding Zhou Feng¡¯s specific strengths and deeds, Fairy Qing directly put forward a suggestion.


    That was to let the Elders deal with Zhou Feng.


    Although this suggestion was a little overkill, it was the best plan.


    Having cultivated to such a degree, almost everyone had already recognized the reality.


    They would not act rashly for the time being. The most important thing was to survive.


    As for the so-called reputation that would be lost if they made such a choice, it did not exist at all.


    Cultivation was something that went against the natural order, to begin with. There would be countless setbacks in the process.


    There were no people who had always had a smooth journey. Moreover, this was not considered a setback at all.


    It was just that an extremely talented vagabond cultivator had appeared.


    When facing a Dragon Transformation expert, there was almost no chance of survival.


    No matter how high one¡¯s talent was, it would be the same if one died halfway.


    On the contrary, Fairy Qing and the others still had room for improvement.


    Geniuses? Countless geniuses would appear every year, but there were not many who could cultivate to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    The three great holy lands didn¡¯t escape this fate. It was already a Herculean task to nurture a new Dragon Transformation realm once a year.


    Such a dangerous thing was better left to the Elders to do!


    In any case, they weren¡¯t the ones who would die.


    On the contrary, with so many elite disciples dead, they might even get a share of the freed-up resources.


    The deaths of their fellow disciples were a joyous event for the holy lands¡¯ disciples.


    Therefore, Fairy Qing¡¯s proposal instantly received the agreement of everyone present.


    Moreover, she would report all the results of the investigation to the holy land and ask the Elders to handle this matter.


    As for going to look for trouble with Zhou Feng?


    Sorry, even the infuriated Sima Di did not have such thoughts.


    If one¡¯s luck wasn¡¯t good and they encountered such a monster, it was very likely that the unlucky person would die instantly.


    It was better for the Elders to handle this kind of matter.


    In any case, Zhou Feng was a dead man in many people¡¯s eyes.


    After all, this time, it would not be a Dragon Transformation powerhouse who would be chasing after Zhou Feng.


    It would be three!


    Each holy land would at least send out an Elder as this matter concerned the three holy lands¡¯ reputations.


    They had to showcase their might. Otherwise, those restless small sects would start to stir up trouble again.


    ¡°Right! This person seems to have made a few friends! Among them, there seems to be a female confidant!¡±


    ¡°Should we cut the weeds and get rid of the roots? After all, this is more or less a threat!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At this moment, Sima Di suddenly thought of Leng Maner.


    The three holy lands had joined forces and unearthed every bit of information regarding Zhou Feng.


    Even his relationship with Li Rong and Leng Maner had been scrutinized.


    Li Rong was most likely dead now, but Leng Maner had come into contact with Zhou Feng in Celestial Lake City.


    In order to get rid of the roots, it was necessary to get rid of Leng Maner.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Fairy Qing started to recall the information regarding Leng Maner.


    Compared to Zhou Feng, Leng Maner¡¯s information was much inferior.


    In short, she was an ordinary lone cultivator.


    Furthermore, she seemed to pursue the Gu Dao, and her appearance seemed to be quite outstanding.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t we take care of this Leng Maner? After all, she knows Zhou Feng. She should be privy to many secrets!¡±


    Sima Di narrowed his eyes slightly as if he was hinting at something.


    Fairy Qing reacted quickly and instantly realized what Sima Di was thinking.


    Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng shouldn¡¯t have grown to such a mind-numbing degree, to the point they needed to dispatch Dragon Transformation Elders to deal with him.


    There were definitely a lot of secrets behind his growth, and Jiang Yi must have figured out what it was.


    Otherwise, Jiang Yi wouldn¡¯t have been so abnormal at that time and taken the initiative to enter the Cold Wind mountain range.


    He must have decided to do this because he wanted to take Zhou Feng¡¯s secret.


    Unfortunately, Jiang Yi had misjudged Zhou Feng¡¯s strength and ultimately failed and died at Zhou Feng¡¯s hands.


    It was very dangerous to dig out Zhou Feng¡¯s secret.


    However, if they used the people around Zhou Feng to dig out Zhou Feng¡¯s secret, the danger would be greatly reduced. They could even figure out ways to deal with him.


    They didn¡¯t want the holy lands to think that they were too timid.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This woman called Leng Maner seems to be heading west! We can investigate this!¡±


    After Fairy Qing realized the deep meaning behind Sima Di¡¯s words, she immediately agreed.


    As for the others, they were also taking advantage of the situation. It was good that they had something to do now. After all, they had already come, so they couldn¡¯t just stand there in a daze!


    This matter was developing in a disadvantageous direction for Zhou Feng.


    The continuous losses had taught the three holy lands to learn their lesson. They no longer held any hope of getting lucky or looked down on Zhou Feng.


    This time, the three holy grounds would attack with their full strength!


    They would use the three Dragon Transformation Elders to crush Zhou Feng to death at the embryonic stage directly.


    However, it would still take some time for the three Dragon Transformation Elders to make their move.


    It was not easy for a powerful Dragon Transformation cultivator to make their move as they were usually in closed-door cultivation, studying divine abilities, or pursuing their Daos.


    It might take half a month to a month until they were free.


    Although it was a bit long, Zhou Feng could not escape at all.


    The Cold Wind mountain range¡¯s surroundings had been completely sealed off, and no one could enter or leave.


    Of course, other than dealing with Zhou Feng, the three holy lands decided to take this opportunity to obtain the Chaotian Sword inside the Chaotian Temple.


    The three Dragon Transformation experts should be able to suppress the great Devil under the Chaotian Temple.


    All of this was within the holy lands¡¯ calculations.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng was unaware that his actions had angered the three holy lands to the point they would dispatch three Dragon Transformation Elders to deal with him.


    At present, he was in the midst of the joy of reaping the harvest.


    The spirit beans that he had planted had already been harvested!


    Under the nourishment of the Spirit Gathering Formation, each of these spirit beans was full of Spiritual Qi.


    ¡°I can refine dao soldiers now!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was a little excited.


    During this period, the AI had improved the Bean Soldiers Ability a little.


    This was due to the various cultivation techniques Shi Li had contributed.


    After the improvement, the Bean Soldiers Ability and the refining method became much simpler.


    ¡°After the improvement, the speed of refining dao soldiers will be increased by 15% while the requirement of resources will be reduced by 10%!¡±


    This was the result of the AI¡¯s optimization.


    This was because the Bean Soldiers Ability was left behind by the Chaotian Temple, which was a sect from thousands of years ago.


    Compared to the current cultivation techniques and divine abilities, this divine ability was less complicated and crude.


    ¡°AI, start refining!¡±


    Zhou Feng had harvested a total of 108 spirit beans.


    At this time, he planned to try refining 10 dao soldiers.


    He would refine all the remaining spirit beans into dao soldiers if the effect was good.


    As for what he would use to refine them, Zhou Feng had already thought of it¡ªit was his Blood Qi!

 Chapter 437 - One Man Formed an Army!

    The upper and lower limits of the Bean Soldiers Ability were large.


    It would change according to the refining technique and materials.


    Under normal circumstances, the refining materials chosen would be large in quantity and high in quality.


    Zhou Feng immediately thought of his Blood Qi.


    He cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture, so his Blood Qi had been condensed to the extreme.


    In addition to all kinds of passive buffs and the AI¡¯s assistance, his Blood Qi had already completed its metamorphosis. From the quality point of view, it was not low at all.


    Moreover, the quantity¡­ Well, he had lots of it due to the passive Second Heart and Blood Qi Boost.


    Using the Blood Qi to refine dao soldiers was already the cheapest and most convenient method.


    When the Blood Qi was consumed, Zhou Feng could make up for the Blood Qi consumption by eating.


    The Level-2 Gluttony had turned him into a Blood Qi manufacturing machine.


    ¡°Begin!¡±


    Zhou Feng cut a small hole in his palm, and threads of golden blood seeped out.


    Then, the AI began to assist him in the refinement.


    First, Shi Li¡¯s remnant soul was forcibly merged into one of the spirit beans.


    Then, a large amount of Blood Qi was used to start infusing these spirit beans.


    The spirit beans already contained a trace of spirituality, and they were infused with the Human Emperor Blood. Thus, it wouldn¡¯t be long before these spirit beans were spiritualized.


    And after the spirit beans were spiritualized, the most crucial step followed.


    One had to stabilize this trace of spirituality so that it wouldn¡¯t be lost.


    This step was very taxing on one¡¯s mind. If one weren¡¯t careful, all previous efforts would be wasted.


    As long as one completed this step, the subsequent refinement would be a long process.


    Actually, it was not very difficult to turn beans into soldiers. Even cultivators with poor aptitude could successfully cultivate this divine ability.


    However, the strength of dao soldiers was hard to guarantee.


    Zhou Feng had the AI¡¯s assistance, so any opportunity to operate it was perfect.


    He could even refine all the spirit beans at the same time.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    He felt his Blood Qi being drained.


    Although he had lost a lot of Blood Qi, he could still hold on.


    The most important thing was that the Blood Qi recovery was effective.


    The 10 spirit beans in front of him gradually began to turn into small figures.


    ¡°Then, the next step!¡±


    After the spirit enchantment was completed, the next step was to equip the dao soldiers!


    One could equip the dao soldiers with various items. Some cultivators would draw a formation during this step, while others would seal remnant souls inside.


    Some rich cultivators would directly fuse demon beast skin, scales, spirit blood, and natural essence into them.


    It was simply comparable to refining puppets.


    Once this type of dao soldier was formed, it would possess extraordinary intelligence and could complete some complex commands on its own.


    It could also replenish its own Spiritual Qi.


    Under normal circumstances, only large sects would refine it like this.


    Ordinary cultivators weren¡¯t that particular.


    As for Zhou Feng, he would mobilize a large amount of Great Void Primordial Qi and condense it into a suit of armor and various weapons.


    This was the most suitable method for Zhou Feng after the AI¡¯s deduction and optimization.


    He would use his Human Emperor Blood to refine the Great Void Primordial Qi as equipment.


    Once the refinement was successful, these dao soldiers would be comparable to the weakened version of him.


    Moreover, he could continuously provide these dao soldiers with Blood Qi and Great Void Primordial Qi.


    When that time came, Zhou Feng would be the commander of a terrifying army.


    He had already suffered enough of being alone.


    It just so happened that Bean Soldiers was a group attack weapon. He wanted to take this opportunity to create an army for himself.


    When he encountered a group fight, he would not be afraid.


    Speaking of which, Zhou Feng had to mention Shi Li.


    In order to refine an army of dao soldiers, the crucial point was to have a main general as the leader.


    This leader was vital, equivalent to Zhou Feng and these dao soldiers¡¯ transit station.


    It just so happened that Shi Li¡¯s remnant soul could be used as the main general¡¯s soul.


    At that time, the main general¡¯s soul would be controlled by the AI.


    Zhou Feng would be in charge during the battle while the rest would be handed over to the AI.


    In order to complete this idea, the supercomputing power of the AI was an essential part.


    In other words, it was basically impossible for others to copy this method.


    ¡°It¡¯s formed!¡± Zhou Feng revealed a trace of excitement.


    After a few consecutive days of refinement, a General-level dao soldier and nine Ordinary dao soldiers were finally formed.


    Zhou Feng had almost been sucked dry. During this period, he had had no choice but to eat several times to replenish the lost Blood Qi.


    The moment the dao soldiers were formed, Zhou Feng collapsed to the ground and panted heavily.


    The 10 spirit beans that were formed were floating in control, constantly absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    It was also thanks to the Spiritual Qi in the cave abode being dense enough. Otherwise, it would not be enough for these spirit beans to absorb.


    Although he had paid such a high price¡ªhe was almost sucked dry¡ªthere was something to gain.


    These 10 spirit beans could be activated instantly with just a thought from Zhou Feng.


    Once they turned into dao soldiers, they could directly engage in battle.


    Furthermore, each one of them had a Divine Ability cultivation base.


    This was because the divine ability these dao soldiers used was the Great Void Primordial Art, and the AI controlled it.


    Zhou Feng felt that he could destroy a small sect with Bean Soldiers.


    ¡°It¡¯s a pity that I don¡¯t know the art of military formations! If I had the art of military formations, I could condense a military soul! That would be amazing!¡±


    Even so, Zhou Feng was still a little dissatisfied.


    This was because there was the art of military formations in this world.


    The art of military formations could be said to be a supplementary art created specifically for Bean Soldiers.


    It could maximize the power of the dao soldier.


    Once the formation was completed, it could summon a terrifying army spirit, as if a great devil had descended upon the world, sweeping away all cultivators of the same realm.


    It could even fight against cultivators of a higher realm.


    Unfortunately, the tokens only had the Bean Soldiers Ability and only some mentions of the art of military formations.


    ¡°I was too greedy!¡±


    It was indeed everyone¡¯s nature to get what they wanted. Zhou Feng gathered his emotions and put the refined dao soldiers into his sleeve.


    Now that he had successfully cultivated the Bean Soldiers Ability, it was time to explore the ruins of Chaotian Temple.


    According to Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s prediction, he would face a great calamity in 10 days.


    And it would come from the three holy lands.


    Zhou Feng could tell that the three holy lands would definitely play for real this time.


    They might even send out Dragon Transformation experts.


    Therefore, he had to take advantage of this period to improve himself. It was not enough to use the Bean Soldiers Ability.


    If he wanted to fight against the Dragon Transformation experts, he had to obtain the connate numinous treasure.


    Otherwise, it would be very difficult to hurt a Dragon Transformation expert just by relying on his Divine Ability cultivation.


    A sense of urgency pressed down on his heart.


    Therefore, he had to explore the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins. Hexadirectional Calculation had predicted that his lifeline was located in the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins!

 Chapter 438 - The Demolition Squads Arrival!

    ¡°Lifeline¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was thinking about the so-called lifeline while recovering.


    Ever since he had obtained Hexadirectional Calculation, he had been using it to calculate almost his every move.


    Not long ago, the AI had informed him that no matter where he went, there would be a great omen of danger.


    The aura of death enveloped his entire body.


    There was only one direction where there was a faint sign of life.


    Zhou Feng was not overly alarmed by this outcome.


    That was because the moment he had chosen to fight against the three great holy lands, he had already thought of the consequences.


    Even if the consequences were so severe, he did not regret it.


    ¡®At worst, I¡¯ll just waste a chance to be reborn,¡¯ Zhou Feng thought.


    That¡¯s right! He had such a mentality because he had a chance to be reborn.


    Anyway, since he had another life, why not go crazy?


    If he didn¡¯t go crazy, how would he improve his cultivation? How would he get the resources?


    ¡°Then let¡¯s set off immediately!¡±


    After regaining his morale, he set off immediately.


    Now was a good time to explore the Chaotian Temple.


    He had slaughtered all the elite disciples, causing the three great holy lands to send numerous experts to block the Cold Wind mountain range¡¯s entrances and exits.


    That terrifying martial force had even frightened those demonic cultivators of the Cold Wind mountain range.


    They were afraid of being targeted by the three great holy lands, so they all hid and didn¡¯t even dare to explore the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    At present, there wasn¡¯t a single person at Chaotian Temple, and it was just the right time for Zhou Feng to show off his skills.


    As usual, he left Big Yellow in the cave to watch over it.


    Zhou Feng marched forward with great speed, stepping on the starlight. He arrived at the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins in the blink of an eye.


    For some reason, a desolate aura assaulted him.


    Compared to the last time, the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins seemed to be even more dilapidated.


    The surroundings were silent.


    ¡°Come out!¡±


    Zhou Feng waved his right hand without hesitation and threw the 10 beans on the ground.


    The 10 beans expanded in the blink of an eye, and 10 dao soldiers appeared in their place.


    Zhou Feng gave control over the dao soldiers to the AI.


    These 10 dao soldiers looked more like 10 fully armed elite soldiers.


    They were dressed in black and white armor, giving off an oppressive feeling. There were barbs at their joints, and the armor covered the entirety of their skin, including their eyes.


    There were six spears on their backs, a longsword on their waists, and a strong bow in their hands.


    All these weapons were made of Great Void Primordial Qi, and they could repair themselves instantly even if they were broken.


    These soldiers could even use Great Void Primordial Qi to create other tools according to their needs.


    For example, under the control of the AI, the bows in the hands of five of the dao soldiers had turned into tools like spades and hammers.


    The remaining five dao soldiers were on guard.


    ¡°Demolish everything in sight!¡± commanded Zhou Feng.


    He did not plan to enter the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins rashly.


    The Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins were very strange. The people who had entered had experienced something and became neither human nor ghost.


    Even if Zhou Feng was confident in his strength, he did not dare to enter the ruins so casually.


    If that were the case, he would demolish all the buildings violently.


    Firstly, it would alert the enemy and force them into the open.


    The enemy hiding in the dark was the most dangerous. As long as the enemy was exposed to the sunlight, the danger level would be reduced.


    Even if he could not defeat the enemy in the end, he could still escape at the first opportunity.


    Secondly, it fit Zhou Feng¡¯s character.


    Why did he have to carefully enter these ruins or tombs every time he encountered them?


    There weren¡¯t so many rules in this mysterious world.


    So what if there were many traps inside?


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s opinion, his dao soldiers were comparable to excavators. If he wanted to use them as such, he would.


    He would be able to demolish all the buildings in front of him in half a day.


    Of course, in this world, only Zhou Feng would have such thoughts.


    After all, most cultivators went to such places to explore in order to obtain cultivation resources.


    If Zhou Feng did this, he would likely end up with nothing and even waste his effort.


    Moreover, these sect ruins and tombs basically had defensive mechanisms.


    If one were not careful, they might even lose their life.


    If they did this, they would attract other people to spy on them.


    Therefore, basically no one could or would copy Zhou Feng¡¯s method.


    Zhou Feng had chosen to do this after careful consideration. The first and most important guarantee was his Hexadirectional Calculation, which could predict good and bad luck.


    He could immediately stop when he encountered an unfavorable situation.


    Ordinary people did not have this kind of ability.


    For a time, the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins shook the earth and mountains, and stones fell and rolled.


    A large number of buildings were demolished, and all the secrets of Chaotian Temple were revealed before Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    The commotion was so big that it disturbed the holy lands¡¯ disciples stationed outside, not to mention the demonic cultivators in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? What¡¯s happening?¡±


    ¡°Who is it? In that direction¡­¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t that the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins? There are actually people who dare to go there to die?¡±


    ¡°They must be crazy! Those Yin Beasts and malicious ghosts will all be attracted there with such a big commotion!¡±


    The demonic cultivators turned into obedient babies due to the commotion. They did not dare to investigate.


    After all, those who dared to cause such a huge commotion in the Cold Wind mountain range were either courting death or were powerful people.


    Not long ago, they heard a ruthless fellow had slaughtered all the elite disciples stationed in the Cold Wind Mountain range.


    That was truly terrifying!


    It was better not to be curious at times.


    These demonic cultivators had long understood the way of survival.


    It was better not to be too curious about certain things.


    It was also because of this that no one came to stop Zhou Feng¡¯s large-scale demolition of the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins.


    Only a few Yin Beasts and malicious ghosts were attracted.


    Still, he didn¡¯t even need to do anything. The dao soldiers were willing to do anything and kill anything that came close to this place.


    Under the control of the AI, the dao soldiers¡¯ arrows almost hit their targets with flawless accuracy.


    Some Yin Beasts were detected before they even got close, and then they were killed by an arrow.


    ¡°Eh? This is a formation? No! It¡¯s a cluster of formations! They even use the power of mountains and rivers?¡±


    As the demolition operation proceeded, Zhou Feng found some traces of a formation. In order to avoid causing trouble, he avoided a few special buildings.


    He lifted the stone slabs on the ground and revealed a clear formation.


    During this period, the Yin Qi had been dispersing, and some of the cultivators that had entered the ruins at the start and were under the Devil¡¯s control could no longer hide. They were forced to rush out helplessly.


    Unfortunately, they were eliminated before they could even get close to Zhou Feng.

 Chapter 439 - "I Think We Need to Talk!"

    As the demolition continued, the Yin Qi that surged out from the surroundings also grew larger.


    Zhou Feng could only reduce the speed of the demolition.


    ¡°These things¡­¡±


    He frowned as all sorts of strange patterns appeared in front of his eyes.


    These patterns appeared very strange, and there were also some bottles and jars.


    His intuition told him that he must not break these things, or something dangerous would happen.


    In addition, there were many strange-shaped skeletons.


    Some of these skeletons were like jade, and some didn¡¯t look like human beings.


    It was hard to imagine what had happened here.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the desire to find out, nor did he want to know what had happened to the Chaotian Temple.


    His only target at the moment was the Chaotian Sword.


    As for secrets and conspiracies, he didn¡¯t want to think about them.


    What did this have to do with him?


    With this thought in mind, he was like a bulldozer all the way.


    Relying on the power of the dao soldiers, he advanced to the center of the Chaotian Temple.


    The Chaotian Temple¡¯s formation had gradually weakened, and the surging Yin Qi on the ground was like big waves.


    Zhou Feng used the Great Void Primordial Qi to isolate all the Yin Qi.


    To be honest, he was very interested in this suppressed great Devil.


    The main thing was that he was a little curious about what could be called a great Devil.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, the Yin Qi was no different from Spiritual Qi.


    It was a terrifying form of energy, and cultivators could borrow it.


    The surging Yin Qi reminded him of his days in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    It seemed that he could use the Demon-Devouring Technique as a reference.


    He was also very interested in the Ghost Binding Art, which was similar to the Demon-Devouring Technique.


    Almost all of them had one characteristic: cultivating them was simple and could improve one¡¯s power infinitely.


    In theory, as long as one could withstand the side effects, the techniques mentioned above could be continuously improved.


    In his opinion, this was a good idea.


    The key was whether one could overcome those side effects.


    ¡°Is this the Chaotian Sword?¡±


    Zhou Feng turned his thoughts around and focused on the sword before him.


    This was a very ordinary longsword.


    The hilt of the sword didn¡¯t have any unnecessary decorations or patterns. The sword was thick, heavy, and tranquil.


    He couldn¡¯t even feel any power from the sword.


    However, the sword was stuck in the ground now.


    According to the AI¡¯s calculation, this was the eye of the formation.


    ¡°Should I pull it out?¡± Zhou Feng touched his chin.


    It seemed impossible to pull it out because the sword was suppressing a great Devil.


    Once the Chaotian Sword was pulled out, the great Devil would definitely break the seal.


    At that time, Zhou Feng would be the first one to suffer.


    Therefore, he had to find a way to replace the Chaotian Sword.


    Just as he was hesitating, a voice suddenly sounded in his ear.


    ¡°Pull out the longsword in front of you, and you will be able to live forever!


    ¡°Pull out! Pull out this longsword!


    ¡°This is the time for you to defy the heavens and change your destiny! Hurry up and act!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    It sounded like a nightmare creature whispering in one¡¯s ear. The voice was not loud, but it was very annoying.


    And as time passed, that kind of whispering would make one feel a little dizzy, and they would subconsciously do what the whisper said.


    Zhou Feng quickly got rid of this influence with the AI¡¯s assistance. It stopped affecting him.


    But this also meant that the sealed great Devil was difficult to deal with.


    ¡°Eh? There¡¯s a reaction?¡±


    Before Zhou Feng could respond, the Chaotian Sword emitted a glimmer of light and sent a message, asking him to provide Spiritual Qi or Blood Qi.


    ¡®Is this the lifeline Hexadirectional Calculation predicted?¡¯


    This Chaotian Sword was actually intelligent. Even though Zhou Feng had long known that connate numinous treasures were intelligent, he was still a little surprised now that he had experienced it.


    It was the first time that a longsword could express its thoughts.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll lend you some!¡±


    Zhou Feng ordered one of the dao soldiers to approach the Chaotian Sword.


    He wouldn¡¯t do such a risky thing himself.


    The newly refined dao soldier could complete this task.


    The dao soldier would act as a medium for Zhou Feng to lend his power to the Chaotian Sword.


    If there was any danger, he could cut off the connection at once.


    The dao soldier held the Chaotian Sword and started pouring rich Spiritual Qi into it.


    At that moment, the dust on the Chaotian Sword instantly dissipated.


    Threads of sharp Sword Qi kept rising as if the sword that had been sealed for a long time had been awakened!


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng heard a series of miserable and horrifying screams.


    The vague screams made him certain that it was the sealed great Devil.


    ¡°No! It¡¯s not easy for me! It¡¯s not easy for me!¡±


    The unresigned screams came out of the mouth of the sealed great Devil.


    Originally, the Chaotian Temple¡¯s seal had almost dissipated due to the passage of time.


    Time was the most ruthless concept. No matter how powerful you were, you would eventually turn into ashes against the endless stream of time.


    90% of the Chaotian Temple¡¯s seal had been damaged. This great Devil could even use the leaked Yin Qi to make some arrangements.


    The Yin Qi had corroded all the cultivators who had barged in here before, and they became the great Devil¡¯s helpers in its plan to escape.


    For some reason, however, people had stopped entering the ruins.


    After waiting for a long time, some cultivators from the outside world finally came in to die.


    What made this great Devil crumble was that these people were overly cautious.


    They had demolished all the unimportant buildings all the way to this place, and the Devil¡¯s minions had not even had the chance to ambush them.


    Furthermore, these people ended up being a human and 10 Divine Ability dao soldiers.


    Divine Ability dao soldiers were nothing when this great Devil was at his peak.


    Unfortunately, this great Devil was in its weakest state now.


    In addition, the seal hadn¡¯t been completely broken yet, so it couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng at the moment.


    When Zhou Feng began to pour Spiritual Qi into the Chaotian Sword, the Devil finally became anxious.


    ¡°Stop! Quickly stop!¡±


    The Devil made up its mind and split half of the origin essence, breaking the seal in an instant.


    Immediately, a figure in black fog appeared in front of Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Shoot!¡±


    The moment this black fog figure appeared, the remaining dao soldiers immediately launched their attacks.


    The void arrows instantly pierced through this figure.


    ¡°Ah! Stop! Quickly stop! I think we need to talk! This is only my clone. It doesn¡¯t have any combat ability!¡±


    Even though the great Devil was incensed, it could only hold back in order to survive.


    Moreover, it asked politely to talk to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Talk?¡±


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and stopped.

 Chapter 440 - Chaotian Sword in Hand

    ¡°Yes! Talk!¡±


    The great Devil looked at Zhou Feng and forcefully suppressed the displeasure in his heart.


    Once upon a time, it would not even spare a glance at a piece of trash like Zhou Feng.


    But now, it could only plead for peace in a low-key manner.


    This feeling was really uncomfortable, but everything was worth it as long as it could escape.


    Zhou Feng looked up and down at the figure in front of him with a curious gaze. He thought for a moment and asked the question in his heart, ¡°What is the cultivation technique you practice? Where did this Yin Qi come from?¡±


    This Yin Qi was very strange in his perception, and it was very corrosive compared to Spiritual Qi.


    Moreover, it was very easy to pollute Spiritual Qi.


    Just as Zhou Feng asked the question in his heart, the Chaotian Sword at the side began to buzz.


    The body of the sword kept trembling, looking very dissatisfied. It seemed to be urging Zhou Feng to help it destroy this great Devil.


    The Chaotian Temple¡¯s formation was badly damaged, but the great Devil was also very weak.


    Time was fair to everything.


    After being sealed for so long without any supplies, this great Devil was actually strong on the outside but weak on the inside.


    At this moment, with Zhou Feng as an external force and the Chaotian Sword, they could definitely destroy this great Devil.


    ¡°What I cultivate is the Grand Skydevil Art! I come from the Central Plains! I can share the cultivation technique if you want to cultivate it!¡±


    The great Devil ignored the buzzing Chaotian Sword and told Zhou Feng about its cultivation technique.


    It seemed that it couldn¡¯t wait for Zhou Feng to cultivate this Grand Skydevil Art as well.


    ¡°From the Central Plains?¡± Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.


    This Grand Skydevil Art sounded like an unorthodox cultivation technique.


    ¡°Speak!¡±


    Zhou Feng let the great Devil continue.


    He probably wouldn¡¯t cultivate the Grand Skydevil Art, but it should be a good reference.


    ¡°Good! The Grand Skydevil Art is very simple¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was courting death, so the Devil almost laughed out loud in its heart.


    The Grand Skydevil Art was a top-tier cultivation technique that could confuse the mind. As long as one studied it, almost no one could resist the temptation.


    This was because it was too simple to cultivate the Grand Skydevil Art, and the improvement was too obvious.


    Even after communicating with the Skydevil World, one could still place their soul in the Skydevil World and form an undying and indestructible Skydevil body.


    ¡®Something¡¯s wrong!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that something was wrong as he listened.


    This Grand Skydevil Art seemed to be luring him to cultivate it immediately.


    Fortunately, he had the AI to help him control his emotions. Otherwise, it would really be a little dangerous.


    ¡®Forget it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly made a decision in his heart.


    He crazily poured his Spiritual Qi into the Chaotian Sword through the dao soldier.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Before the great Devil could finish explaining the Grand Skydevil Art, it felt that its origin essence was continuously dissipating.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? Why did he suddenly turn hostile!?


    ¡®Wasn¡¯t this person coveting my Grand Skydevil Art? I haven¡¯t finished sharing the Grand Skydevil Art yet!¡¯


    With the support of Zhou Feng, the Chaotian Sword could instantly unleash the power of a connate numinous treasure.


    That pure and tranquil aura purified countless amounts of Yin Qi.


    That¡¯s right! It was the kind of treasure that could purify!


    ¡°No! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Unwillingness and anger began to spread in the Devil¡¯s heart. It had spent so much time and finally turned the entire Cold Wind mountain range into a ghost land.


    The Yin Qi covered the entire mountain range in order to cut off the Chaotian Sword¡¯s Spiritual Qi supply.


    Although the Chaotian Sword was a connate numinous treasure, it was also the Chaotian Temple¡¯s sect-guarding treasure.


    Without someone controlling it, its power would be reduced by more than half, and without the nourishment of Spiritual Qi, the power it could unleash would be even smaller.


    Half of the Devil¡¯s original plan had already succeeded. The Chaotian Sword hadn¡¯t been replenished with Spiritual Qi for a long time, so it was already unable to maintain the formation.


    If no one interfered, the great Devil would break out sooner or later.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng ruined everything!


    Not only had he forcefully demolished the place on his way there, making it impossible for the great Devil to resist, but he even replenished the Chaotian Sword with Spiritual Qi.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Since the origin essence had been completely purified, the Devil planned to teach Zhou Feng a lesson. Even if it died, it would still bite off a piece of Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh.


    Zhou Feng had sensed the danger ahead of time, so he used the Starseizer Steps and evaded the sudden attack.


    ¡°Ahhh!¡±


    What was being furious? This was what being furious felt like!


    Seeing that it couldn¡¯t attack Zhou Feng, this great Devil started to roar in anger.


    But all these struggles were useless.


    With the support of external forces, the Chaotian Sword purified the remaining origin of this great Devil.


    The Yin Qi in the Cold Wind mountain actually began to weaken!


    This change was very weak, and only the AI detected it.


    The environment of the Cold Wind mountain range was due to this sealed great Devil.


    Now that the source had dissipated, the Cold Wind mountain would probably return back to normal in a few hundred years!


    ¡®Then¡­ This Chaotian Sword will be mine? This seems a little easy!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that these turns of events were surrealistic.


    ¡®Are these still the Chaotian Temple¡¯s ruins?¡¯


    That strange appearance from before really gave him a lot of pressure.


    But it was solved just like that?


    Wasn¡¯t it a little too easy!?


    When thinking about it carefully, this seemed to be quite reasonable.


    The Chaotian Temple was a sect from more than 1,000 years ago.


    Such a long time could almost wipe out countless sects.


    Even a mighty Dragon Transformation expert wouldn¡¯t live that long!


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    Zhou Feng walked forward and pulled out the Chaotian Sword.


    Since the great Devil had been purified, the surrounding formations stopped operating.


    Thus, he easily pulled out the Chaotian Sword.


    After pulling it out, a message was transmitted to Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    ¡°Three times! Three chances! It requires a large amount of Spiritual Qi to recover!¡±


    This was the message that the spirit of the connate numinous treasure transmitted.


    Three chances meant that it could help Zhou Feng three times, including forcing back powerful enemies.


    Secondly, the Chaotian Sword required a large amount of pure Spiritual Qi to recover.


    Spiritual Qi hadn¡¯t nourished the Chaotian Sword for nearly 1,000 years, so the spirit of the connate numinous treasure was almost wiped out.


    As for the inheritance of the Chaotian Temple, it did not mention anything at all.


    It seemed that¡­ the Chaotian Sword did not like him?


    ¡®Such intelligence! It¡¯s comparable to Big Yellow!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was calm.


    In any case, the Chaotian Sword was already in his hands. It was equivalent to a cooked duck.


    He did not believe that a cooked duck could fly away.


    ¡®Since the Chaotian Sword behaves like this, it¡¯s probably because I conversed with the great Devil?


    ¡®So, it doesn¡¯t think that I am a good candidate to inherit the Chaotian Temple?


    ¡®I heard that the connate numinous treasure would choose its own candidate. I didn¡¯t expect it to be true¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t too disappointed.


    After all, these were all external objects, and his core foundation was still the skill panel. He had always kept this key point in mind.


    Only by maintaining a good state of mind would it be beneficial for his future cultivation.


    With the protection of the Chaotian Sword, he didn¡¯t have to be afraid of Dragon Transformation experts.


    ¡°Then it¡¯s also time to leave the Cold Wind mountain range!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect things to develop to such a degree.


    According to the original plan, he was prepared to stay in the Cold Wind mountain range for a few years.

 Chapter 441 - Leaving the Mountain!

    After obtaining the Chaotian Sword, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t stay for long. Instead, he chose to return to his cave abode as soon as possible.


    He had to make sufficient preparations before leaving the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Moreover, because this operation was very dangerous, he planned to leave Big Yellow in his cave abode.


    He wanted Big Yellow to manage this place well and guard the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish.


    The Celestial Qi that the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish spat out assisted in comprehending divine abilities.


    However, it was too slow. If it spat out the Celestial Qi in a place where the Spiritual Qi was dense, the efficiency would be higher.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t bring the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish with him. He had set up a Spirit Gathering Formation in the cave abode, and in addition to the special Yin Veins and the Yin-Absorbing Spirit Tree, it was very likely that the cave abode would turn into a spirit land in the future.


    It would be a pity if it were abandoned.


    It was a good opportunity to leave Big Yellow here. He could take care of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish while guarding the cave abode.


    ¡®Big Yellow¡¯s strength is still a little lackluster¡­¡¯


    Although Zhou Feng was a little hesitant, he still made this decision.


    Big Yellow would become a burden due to their strength difference.


    Big Yellow had superb detecting skills, but they were no longer of much use ever since Zhou Feng obtained the AI.,


    Moreover, Big Yellow was the best choice to guard the cave abode.


    Firstly, he would not betray him, and he was not impatient like humans.


    Secondly, Big Yellow¡¯s strength was more than enough to deal with ordinary Divine Ability experts.


    Lastly, the passive Spirit Pet Heart ensured that Big Yellow would not stagnate as long as Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation level increased.


    This could be considered as planting a seed. Who knew? When he returned, a surprise might be awaiting him.


    Zhou Feng thought about it and felt that it was alright. His innate divine ability was Longevity anyway. He had a long enough life to harvest the things that he had planted before slowly.


    Although doing so would cause him to waste the top-grade fish tank that he had bought before, it didn¡¯t matter.


    Anyway, the passive Fisherman was still there. In the future, he could just fish a top-grade spirit fish.


    ¡°Big Yellow!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately called Big Yellow over and began to explain some things.


    At the same time, he left behind a lot of things. Most of them were cultivation techniques and various books.


    Since Big Yellow could actually learn pill refinement by himself, then it was just right to leave all these books behind for Big Yellow to study slowly.


    Big Yellow had awakened his Howling Moon Wolf bloodline, and the lifespan of a spirit beast was generally relatively long. Thus, living for 300 years should be simple.


    Zhou Feng was very much looking forward to what Big Yellow would become when he returned.


    ¡°Woof!¡±


    Big Yellow immediately cried out with reluctance in his eyes.


    But in the end, he did not insist on following Zhou Feng.


    Big Yellow, whose intelligence was steadily increasing, also understood that following Zhou Feng would only slow him down.


    Therefore, even though he was reluctant to part with him, he still listened obediently.


    After comforting Big Yellow, Zhou Feng once again used his AI to reinforce the formation around the cave abode.


    All kinds of hidden dangers had been eliminated, and the great Devil had disappeared.


    The Cold Wind mountain range would gradually become normal in the future, and it could be considered to be preparing for a rainy day.


    Of course, the most important thing was the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish in the lake.


    The Celestial Qi was a living treasure. With the help of the Celestial Qi and the AI, Zhou Feng was confident that he could push a divine ability to the perfection stage.


    Therefore, the safety of the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish had to be guaranteed.


    Zhou Feng took advantage of this period of time to connect the lake with an underground stream that led to a river. If Big Yellow encountered any danger, the Celestial Spiritmirror Fish could still have a place to run.


    This operation took a lot of time, but it was all worth it.


    ¡°It¡¯s time to leave the mountain!¡±


    After Zhou Feng finished dealing with these miscellaneous matters, he held the Chaotian Sword in his hand, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.


    The three holy lands! This matter was not over!


    They had captured Li Rong and wanted to threaten him. This kind of behavior was simply slapping his face.


    He also wanted to let the three holy lands have a taste of what it was like to be threatened by others.


    ¡°The three holy lands are very rich, aren¡¯t they?¡±


    Zhou Feng planned to use this opportunity to replenish his Spirit Stone reserve properly.


    How could he go to the Eastern Land without Spirit Stones?


    1


    ¡°Come out!¡±


    He threw out five spirit beans, and they instantly turned into five dao soldiers.


    These five dao soldiers all looked exactly the same as Zhou Feng, and they exuded the same aura as Zhou Feng.


    Although Zhou Feng wanted to fight it out with the three holy lands, he wasn¡¯t stupid.


    He wouldn¡¯t charge out foolishly.


    The appearance of these five dao soldiers in front of him was the result of the AI¡¯s optimization.


    They were able to impersonate him and reach the stage of making it look real.


    He planned to use these five dao soldiers to create chaos and then take the opportunity to slip out.


    The Cold Wind mountain range was vast, yet the three holy lands wanted to surround it? That was not a simple matter.


    As for the five dao soldiers, it was fine if they were sacrificed. After all, his Blood Qi was potent enough, and if they were gone, he would continue to refine them.


    With his previous experience, he had no problem refining 50 dao soldiers at once.


    Having one more divine ability was different!


    In the face of a crisis, he had one more choice.


    If he did not have Bean Soldiers, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have many options.


    He could have only stupidly forced his way out of the encirclement. This was completely inconsistent with his previous plan to live a long life.


    Now, he had finally returned to the original goal he had set.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Zhou Feng restrained his aura and shuttled through the dense forest like a ghost.


    He was fast, but he didn¡¯t make a single sound.


    If one were to look closely, they would notice that he did not even touch a single leaf.


    It could be said that he had passed through a myriad of flowers without even touching a single leaf.


    ¡­


    ¡°Something¡¯s not right! Someone¡¯s coming out!¡±


    ¡°What should we do? The Jade Sword Elders haven¡¯t arrived yet!¡±


    ¡°We can¡¯t wait any longer! Let the Elders know immediately! This person is definitely Zhou Feng.¡±


    ¡°Although this child has already mastered a mystical technique and can cover his tracks, he isn¡¯t undetectable yet!¡±


    The moment Zhou Feng stepped out of the mountain range, they detected it.


    The mountain range was so vast that even the three holy lands couldn¡¯t completely seal it off.


    However, there were cultivators who specialized in mystical techniques among the three holy lands, and they were good at finding people.


    Previously, they had already set up countless formations near the Cold Wind mountain range. Once a living person came out, they would definitely touch those formations.


    After all, the three holy lands had already warned that as long as someone ran out from the Cold Wind mountain range, the Dragon Transformation Elders would definitely pursue and kill them,


    The demonic cultivators of the Cold Wind mountain range were naturally people who cherished their lives. Under such a situation, it was impossible for them to leave the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Unfortunately, the three holy lands did not intend to let off the demonic cultivators. They were just waiting for the Dragon Transformation Elders to raze the Cold Wind mountain range.


    But the Jade Sword Elder was late, which caused them to waste a lot of time.


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! There¡¯s someone else! There¡¯s more than one person!¡±


    ¡°East! West! South! North! Everyone, leave!¡±


    ¡°A diversion! This is definitely Zhou Feng. He¡¯s trying to fish in troubled waters!¡±


    ¡°Everyone, act immediately! If you find Zhou Feng, choose to save your lives first, then delay this person and wait for the Elders to come to your aid!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The three holy lands¡¯ disciples at the foot of the mountain immediately moved out.


    They were certain that this was definitely Zhou Feng¡¯s doing. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave the Cold Wind mountain range.

 Chapter 442 - I’m Still Better Than You!

    The disciples of the three great holy lands had never received such an order.


    When they met Zhou Feng, the first thing they should do was to save their lives.


    If they were facing a Dragon Transformation expert, this would be acceptable.


    But at this time, they were only facing a vagabond Divine Ability cultivator.


    They were all Divine Ability cultivators, yet they couldn¡¯t even protect their lives?


    This was simply a joke!


    Zhou Feng may have massacred everyone in the Cold Wind mountain range, but he must have used some underhanded methods in some people¡¯s eyes.


    The Cold Wind mountain range¡¯s strange environment made it easier to ambush others since one¡¯s spiritual sense was suppressed.


    If Zhou Feng must have used some sinister methods and killed the disciples in a moment of carelessness.


    This did not mean that Zhou Feng was very strong. Those Senior and Junior Brothers had just lost because they did not pay enough attention to him.


    People with such thoughts were not uncommon among the disciples of the three holy lands.


    After all, the three holy lands had been dominating the Southern Border for many years. Those so-called vagabond cultivators did not even have the qualifications to be their practice targets.


    It was not uncommon for people to have such thoughts.


    Su Yuan had such thoughts.


    ¡®If I can kill this Zhou Feng alone, then the sect should look at me in a different light!


    ¡®If the sect¡¯s resources are tilted, then I¡¯ll definitely break through to the Dragon Transformation realm in the future!¡¯


    He searched for traces of Zhou Feng alone.


    In order to be famous and obtain more cultivation resources, Su Yuan¡¯s courage was extraordinary. He actually dared to look for Zhou Feng alone.


    In fact, he did this entirely to attract the attention of the sect¡¯s higher-ups.


    The holy land disciples looked glorious and were very powerful. The higher one¡¯s cultivation journey, the more resources would be consumed.


    In order to nurture a top-notch expert, the needed resources were enormous.


    Therefore, the general strategy of a sect was to select the most talented disciples to nurture.


    This was because having high talent meant that the resources consumed would be fewer, allowing a portion of the resources to be saved for the other disciples to cultivate.


    This was also the most cost-effective method to nurture experts.


    Speaking of which, could those with poor aptitude cultivate? Of course they could. Even a pig that ate spirit rice every day could become a spirit pig.


    Not to mention a human! However, the cost-benefit ratio of doing so was extremely low.


    Basically, no sect would be willing to waste resources on people with low aptitude.


    Of course, cultivation talent didn¡¯t mean everything because many factors made one strong. Cultivation talent only took up one of them.


    Battle prowess! High comprehension ability! There were also some special talents and divine abilities. These factors would cause the sect¡¯s resources to lean toward you.


    It was very easy to understand that one¡¯s battle prowess was unparalleled. As long as one could be invincible in the same realm, even if their cultivation aptitude were poor, the sect would be willing to nurture them.


    After all, once they nurtured a genius who was invincible in the same realm, the sect would be able to obtain many rewards.


    No matter what time it was, martial strength was the most important.


    High comprehension ability! Poor cultivation aptitude.


    The sect would also choose to nurture them. After all, high comprehension ability meant that they could optimize and create cultivation techniques.


    This type of talent was necessary for a well-developed sect.


    Since Su Yuan wanted to kill Zhou Feng alone, this would prove that his battle prowess was outstanding.


    After all, Zhou Feng was a ruthless person who had single-handedly wiped out the disciples in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    If he could defeat him, then Su Yuan would definitely be valued.


    Thus, he would receive many resources.


    Just as Su Yuan was thinking of defeating Zhou Feng, he suddenly felt a terrifying aura.


    ¡®No way! My luck is so good!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng stopped not far away.


    ¡®That¡¯s right! This person is Zhou Feng!¡¯


    Su Yuan had seen Zhou Feng¡¯s portrait before, so he recognized that the person in front of him was Zhou Feng at a glance.


    Just as the rumors said, he could feel a sense of oppression just by bumping into him.


    At this moment, he got rid of all distracting thoughts. He needed to do his best to defeat Zhou Feng. This was his opportunity!


    ¡®The Elder is nearby. If it really doesn¡¯t work, I should be able to hold on until the Elder comes to my aid!¡¯


    Su Yuan¡¯s entire body was tense, and his attention was unprecedentedly focused.


    However, what he didn¡¯t realize was that Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were very dull, and he didn¡¯t have the nimbleness of a living person at all.


    In fact, this was just a dao soldier.


    However, Su Yuan treated him as Zhou Feng himself.


    At present, Zhou Feng was far away from the Cold Wind mountain range.


    After the dao soldiers created chaos, he smoothly left the Cold Wind mountain range.


    ¡°So it went so smoothly?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned. This didn¡¯t seem right.


    Why did it go so smoothly? This was not the prediction of Hexadirectional Calculation.


    In order to deal with this crisis, he had even spent some effort to get the Chaotian Sword.


    Was there a mistake?


    Impossible! The AI was using Hexadirectional Calculation, so the predictions were extremely accurate.


    There was almost no error. Even his passive Battle Instinct had warned him of the danger.


    ¡°It seems that I must fight it out with a Dragon Transformation expert. Otherwise, I definitely won¡¯t be able to escape this crisis!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what method the three great holy lands would use to find him, but there was definitely a way to know his location accurately. Therefore, it was impossible to avoid this battle.


    Since that was the case, why not choose a good place and directly occupy the geographical advantage to fight?


    At that moment, the AI¡¯s computational ability was fully activated, and it began to pick a place that was advantageous to him.


    ¡­


    ¡°Haha! Die! A mere Zhou Feng? As expected, he only used some underhanded methods to create such a great reputation!¡±


    Su Yuan burst into laughter at this moment.


    Although he looked extremely miserable, his clothes being in tatters, he wore an exhilarated expression.


    This was because ¡®Zhou Feng¡¯ on the opposite side had a weak aura, and Su Yuan still had one last trump card.


    In the end, he would be the ultimate winner!


    In the battle just now, Su Yuan had also sensed how difficult Zhou Feng was to deal with.


    Both of them were Divine Ability experts, and Zhou Feng only had one divine ability, but he was cultivating three divine abilities. Even so, he was suppressed the moment the battle started.


    In terms of combat techniques, Su Yuan was completely defeated. No matter what he did, the dao soldier would see through him at a glance.


    Fortunately, Su Yuan¡¯s foundation was strong enough, and he had enough trump cards.


    The two of them exhausted each other. ¡°Zhou Feng¡± could not hold on any longer, but Su Yuan still had one final trump card.


    It was a trace of Sword Qi left his Master had bestowed to him.


    As an unfavored disciple, Su Yuan had paid a steep price to obtain this trace of Sword Qi from a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    It was originally meant to be used as a life-saving trump card when his life was in danger.


    But now, he couldn¡¯t care less.


    ¡®In the end, my skills are superior!¡±


    When Su Yuan thought about how he would receive a large number of resources from the sect, his entire face contorted,


    He had been waiting for this day for a long time!


    Genius? Without cultivation resources!


    ¡®So what if you¡¯re a genius?¡¯


    When he thought about being able to trample on those genius disciples, he felt his entire body become comfortable.

 Chapter 443 - Blood Resentment Art

    Su Yuan directly crushed a jade sword.


    In an instant, a strand of sword light split into countless fine threads.


    The light suddenly appeared and then disappeared like a meteor.


    This strand of Sword Qi was something that a Dragon Transformation expert had spent a great deal of effort to seal in this jade sword.


    It wasn¡¯t a simple matter for a Dragon Transformation expert to store their power in a life-saving item.


    Therefore, only a favored disciple could obtain this kind of life-saving Sword Qi under normal circumstances.


    Of course, if one spent a lot of resources, they could also obtain it.


    Su Yuan was a disciple who was not favored. In order to obtain this trace of Sword Qi, he had taken a lot of resources from his family.


    This was something that others did not have the qualifications to covet.


    If it were not for the fact that he had a Dragon Transformation Master, it would be impossible for others to obtain this kind of life-saving Sword Qi.


    But this time, he chose to expend such precious Sword Qi here.


    The main reason was to fight for a chance and kill Zhou Feng.


    In addition to attracting the sect¡¯s attention, there was also the possibility of obtaining Zhou Feng¡¯s possessions.


    Zhou Feng was a vagabond cultivator, yet he had cultivated to such a terrifying level. He must definitely have many good things in his storage ring.


    Therefore, this was the main reason Su Yuan was so ruthless.


    As for whether or not he had suspected that the before him was merely a dao soldier formed from a spirit bean, Su Yuan had never thought that a divine ability could replicate this aura and strength.


    A dao soldier was able to fight evenly with him? To the extent of forcing him to use his life-saving Sword Qi?


    This was impossible! This was simply impossible!


    If he encountered the real Zhou Feng, wouldn¡¯t he be insta-killed?


    That strand of Sword Qi instantly tore apart the dao soldier.


    However, before Zhou Feng died, he suddenly erupted with his last bit of strength, and he stabbed at Su Yuan with the void spear from a tricky angle.


    ¡°Dying struggle!¡±


    A trace of disdain appeared on the corner of Su Yuan¡¯s mouth. The heart-protecting mirror on his chest blocked this last attack.


    Then, in the next second, he was completely dumbfounded.


    The living person in front of him suddenly turned into a spirit bean.


    The traces of the battle just now proved that there had been an intense battle.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Su Yuan¡¯s right hand trembled slightly as he picked up the spirit bean.


    He could not accept it!


    He had spent so much effort and used all his trump cards, yet he was only fighting with a puppet!?


    Although Su Yuan did not know about the Bean Soldiers Ability, he realized that what he had just fought was something similar to a puppet.


    It was not a real person at all!


    To think that he was so excited just now!


    For a moment, Su Yuan was so angry that his heart pounded, and a mouthful of black blood spurted out of his mouth.


    He was simply a clown! His previous thoughts were simply as funny as the tricks of a clown.


    He had been fighting fiercely with a puppet for half a day.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Fortunately, his mental fortitude was not so bad that he went crazy on the spot.


    Su Yuan could only comfort himself in his heart.


    ¡®Zhou Feng must have painstakingly refined this kind of special puppet. There should not be many of them.¡¯


    If he thought about it this way, it could at least restore some of his self-esteem.


    But in reality, it had not taken Zhou Feng much effort to refine this kind of dao soldier.


    It was even normal for hundreds of dao soldiers to appear at the same time after mastering the initial stage of the Bean Soldiers Ability.


    Su Yuan was so angry that he almost died.


    The interception mission of the three great holy lands was also extremely successful. All the dao soldiers that Zhou Feng had released to fish in troubled waters were all captured.


    ¡°They¡¯re all fake!¡±


    ¡°What? Could it be that this child hasn¡¯t left the mountain range?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! This kid has definitely left the mountain range. It¡¯s just that I don¡¯t know what method he used to deceive us!¡±


    ¡°Forget it! Let¡¯s just use the Blood Resentment Art to locate him!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s settled then!¡±


    The elite disciples had no idea what method Zhou Feng used to leave the mountain range.


    In the end, the two Elders from the Great Sun Holy Land and the Jade Lake Holy Land made the decision.


    They used the Blood Resentment Art to locate Zhou Feng¡¯s specific location.


    The so-called Blood Resentment Art touched upon karma.


    Zhou Feng had killed so many disciples, and it could be said that he had a deep blood feud with the three holy lands.


    They could use this feud as a trigger and then sacrifice the flesh and blood of the disciples that had died in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand to locate his specific location.


    They had not used it before because it consumed a lot of energy, and they still needed to sacrifice the flesh and blood of their fallen disciples.


    This was not something that an ordinary person could make a decision on.


    Only someone at the level of an Elder had the right to make a decision.


    ¡°There¡¯s no time to lose! Let¡¯s just start!¡±


    There was not the slightest expression on Fairy Ximeng¡¯s face, and she only urged them to quickly use the Blood Resentment Art.


    ¡°Let¡¯s begin!¡±


    Sima Ling stared at the Jade Sword disciples, and a power that was as bright as the sun rose slowly.


    The Jade Sword disciples had no way to deal with this situation. After all, their Elder had not arrived until now. Facing the pressure from the other two holy lands, they could only choose to accept it.


    ¡°Let¡¯s begin!¡±


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    After saying this, everyone gathered all the disciples who had died tragically at Zhou Feng¡¯s hands and prepared to use the Blood Resentment Art.


    Meanwhile¡­


    Zhou Feng chose an excellent battle location.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    He looked around and nodded in satisfaction.


    This place was extremely spacious, and the Spiritual Qi was very thin. Next to it was a dense forest, and there was a large river ahead of them.


    This place was not only suitable for setting up formations and traps, but it was also very good for fleeing.


    Thanks to his passive Underwater Breathing, he could jump into the big river and escape if necessary.


    If he couldn¡¯t escape by jumping into the river, he could choose to enter the forest.


    With the help of the traps he had set up, he should be able to pull some distance apart.


    Moreover, because the Spiritual Qi here was thin, it was slightly disadvantageous to a Dragon Transformation expert who could easily manipulate Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®But in the end, I still have to rely on my strength! As long as I avoid this calamity, everything will be smooth sailing from now on!¡¯


    Zhou Feng stood quietly on the spot, relying on his AI to continuously use Hexadirectional Calculation to make predictions.


    Suddenly, he felt as if he was being spied on.


    ¡°Die! Die! Die!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m so miserable! Die for me!¡±


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Countless curses suddenly echoed in his ears. Those people seemed to have died at his hands before.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng subconsciously opened his palm, and a blood mark suddenly appeared.


    ¡®A curse? Or something else?¡¯


    At this time, he finally understood why the predictions were always so ominous.


    The three holy lands indeed had some kind of method to directly track him down.


    However, just as this mark appeared, the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth negated its effect.


    ¡°Eh? How is this possible!? The Blood Resentment Mark has been erased!?¡±


    ¡°How did you do it!?¡±


    After hearing these two voices, the hair on Zhou Feng¡¯s back stood up.


    He had not noticed that someone was approaching.


    ¡®In front! Two people!¡¯


    The AI used all its computational power and detected Fairy Ximeng and Sima Ling.


    ¡®Dragon Transformation experts?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly.

 Chapter 444 - 1 vs. 2

    As soon as the Blood Resentment Mark appeared, it was purified by the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth.


    Purification of Heaven and Earth: Every other day, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi will help you purify a negative state on your body.


    Negative states include Poison, Imprints, Karmic Seal¡­


    Therefore, from a certain point of view, Zhou Feng was not afraid of things like curses at all.


    But even so, they still pinpointed his location.


    ¡°How did a mere Divine Ability cultivator remove the Blood Resentment Mark? I¡¯m really curious about this!¡±


    A trace of curiosity appeared in Fairy Ximeng¡¯s bright eyes. Her every move seemed to carry inexplicable charm.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng almost blurted out that he had the skill panel.


    He immediately snapped out of it, however.


    ¡®This is the power of charm?¡¯ Zhou Feng frowned. This power of charm was too strange.


    He almost fell for it just now, and Fairy Ximeng¡¯s every move was natural.


    There was no extra movement.


    ¡°Interesting! Your Blood Qi is actually so potent? That¡¯s the connate numinous treasure on your waist, right?¡±


    Sima Ling immediately noticed the Chaotian Sword on Zhou Feng¡¯s waist.


    ¡®Two Dragon Transformation experts¡­ There¡¯s still a chance!¡¯


    Zhou Feng only frowned and didn¡¯t say anything.


    If it was three Dragon Transformation experts, he might be in trouble.


    Fortunately, only two Dragon Transformation experts had come for him. With the help of the Chaotian Sword, he could still fight.


    ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you still want to escape? Or do you want to rely on those pieces of junk?¡±


    A strange avatar rose behind Sima Ling. It was a big sun that illuminated thousands of rivers and mountains.


    It was as if an Earth Dragon had turned around, and countless mountains began to churn.


    A Dragon Transformation cultivator¡¯s physical body did not have the restrictions of a mortal body, and they could withstand a higher level of power.


    They were even more adept at controlling the power of heaven and earth.


    Only a sufficiently strong physical body could support a more potent power.


    It was the same on the path of cultivation, constantly jumping between strengthening the physical body and the divine soul.


    The Divine Ability realm focused on the metamorphosis of the soul, while the Dragon Transformation realm focused on the metamorphosis of the body.


    The next level was the ascension of the soul.


    This was the basic rule of most practices.


    Only those who followed unorthodox cultivation paths would choose to promote only one of them.


    If one wanted to be immortal, they had to enhance both the body and the soul.


    The big sun avatar behind Sima Ling illuminated all the traps and formations Zhou Feng had set beforehand and destroyed them in an instant.


    The Dragon Transformation realm had an overwhelming advantage over the Divine Ability realm, not to mention that the two people in front of him were both Elders of the holy land.


    The cultivation resources and cultivation techniques they possessed far surpassed Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    Sima Ling planned to make a move, while Fairy Ximeng, who came from the Jade Lake Holy Land, had no intention of making a move. Instead, she kept sizing up Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng felt as if his body was being roasted by the sun.


    For a moment, he could not help it.


    The Invincible Avatar arose, and he pulled out the Chaotian Sword.


    The Chaotian Sword also absorbed all the spiritual power in Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and a pure Yang aura rose.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng still dared to resist, Sima Ling only snorted coldly.


    The scorching aura of the great sun descended from the sky like a tidal wave, and the scarlet waves erupted like a mountain flood.


    They formed a continuous wave that covered Zhou Feng in an instant.


    Zhou Feng relied on the Chaotian Sword to simply slash in front of his chest. A dazzling light directly cut through the big wave in front of him, but he could not dodge this move at all.


    The rolling waves of the aura of the great sun crashed directly into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Ah!¡± Zhou Feng roared angrily and forcefully withstood this move.


    The passive Body of Thorns was immediately triggered.


    ¡°Hm?¡±


    Sima Ling felt that something was wrong as he was unable to react to Zhou Feng¡¯s counterattack.


    ¡®What kind of move did this brat use to counterattack?¡¯


    Although the power could not break through his physical defense at all, it left him a little embarrassed, especially when Fairy Ximeng looked at him with a strange gaze.


    Sima Ling¡¯s face turned colder.


    ¡°Junior! You¡¯ve angered me!¡±


    An invisible killing intent seeped out from the bright sun behind him.


    This time, Sima Ling wanted to vaporize Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    Zhou Feng was eerily calm as he continuously activated the Chaotian Sword.


    After the Chaotian Sword absorbed sufficient spiritual power, it also displayed its proper power.


    That faint pure Yang Sword Qi almost tore apart Sima Ling¡¯s abnormal avatar.


    ¡°Good connate numinous treasure!¡±


    Sima Ling instantly shifted his attention to the Chaotian Sword in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    A Divine Ability cultivator actually relied on a connate numinous treasure to contend against him.


    This was definitely not an ordinary connate numinous treasure!


    As expected of Chaotian Temple¡¯s sect-guarding connate numinous treasure!


    ¡°Hehe, this connate numinous treasure is fated with our Jade Lake Holy Land.¡±


    Fairy Ximeng wouldn¡¯t just watch the show from the sidelines. Instead, she smiled slightly.


    A few lotus flowers suddenly grew out of Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and their roots seeped into his body.


    Fortunately, the AI had disabled Zhou Feng¡¯s pain receptors in advance. Otherwise, he would have been in so much pain that he wouldn¡¯t have been able to concentrate.


    ¡°Fate? No matter what it is, your Jade Lake Holy Land will say the same thing every time!¡±


    Sima Ling did not give her any face at all.


    The two of them started to icker as if they wanted to fight for the ownership of the Chaotian Sword.


    However, although the two of them started a verbal fight, they kept putting pressure on Zhou Feng.


    The two Dragon Transformation powerhouses began to besiege Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, relied on the Chaotian Sword to hold on as if he was a small boat in a stormy sea.


    However, from the beginning to the end, his face was very calm.


    The lotus flowers growing on his body were directly sliced off along with his flesh and blood.


    No matter how terrifying the move was, he forcefully dealt with it.


    The passive Body of Thorns was also continuously triggered.


    At this time, Sima Ling and Fairy Ximeng felt that something was wrong.


    It was unknown how this junior managed to counterattack under such pressure.


    And the power of the Chaotian Sword was gradually unsealed.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation was not enough to unseal all of its power, but the unsealed power was enough.


    The increasingly dazzling Chaotian Sword made Sima Ling and Fairy Ximeng stop talking. Instead, they wanted to get rid of Zhou Feng swiftly.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly loosened his grip and hurled the Chaotian Sword into the air.


    Even if Sima Ling and Fairy Ximeng knew that Zhou Feng had thrown his treasure to catch their attention, they could not help but be attracted by said treasure.


    This was aconnate numinous treasure!


    Zhou Feng, a Divine Ability junior, was able to hold on for so long with the help of the Chaotian Sword under the siege of the two Dragon Transformation experts.


    ¡°Bean Soldiers!¡±


    Sima Ling and Fairy Ximeng¡¯s attention was focused on the sword. Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng should have taken the opportunity to escape.


    But at this moment, he waved his hand and summoned all the remaining dao soldiers.


    Under the control of the AI, all the dao soldiers drew their bows and shot void arrows.


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were bloodshot. He entered Overload, and all the power in his body exploded.


    All the previous actions were just for the sake of stacking his passive skills.


    3


    The battle had just begun!

 Chapter 445 - Making Them Feel the Pain

    Many of Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills required a little time to stack.


    At first, he was worried that the two Dragon Transformation cultivators would not give him time.


    But in fact, Fairy Ximeng and Sima Ling did not seem to be in a hurry to take him down.


    Instead, they saw him as a piece of meat in a pot and put part of their energy into fighting for the Chaotian Sword.


    That was why he had the time to stack the passive skills. At the same time, the AI had analyzed the battle plan to deal with the two of them, while Hexadirectional Calculation gradually improved.


    In a sense, this battle was a big-data treasure trove that helped the predictions of Hexadirectional Calculation become more accurate.


    After entering Overload, Zhou Feng was akin to Berserker, whose power had reached the peak.


    But it didn¡¯t exceed the upper limit of his physical body.


    The Chaotian Sword suddenly turned around mid-air and returned to Zhou Feng¡¯s hand in an instant.


    The connate numinous treasure had a spirit, and the Chaotian Sword had promised to help him three times, so it definitely wouldn¡¯t go back on its word.


    With the Chaotian Sword¡¯s active cooperation, Zhou Feng temporarily gained the ability to fight against a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    ¡°Kill him!¡±


    When Fairy Ximeng saw this, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and a green lotus appeared between heaven and earth.


    Sima Ling did not speak and used his actions to express his attitude.


    These two people had such a change because Zhou Feng was showing a hint of threat at this time.


    Therefore, these two people put schemes aside.


    If this kid escaped from their hands, then everyone would treat them as a joke.


    Fairy Ximeng¡¯s jade-like hand formed a seal.


    She was emotionless, like a fairy under the moon. White marks appeared in the sky and earth.


    Zhou Feng grabbed the Chaotian Sword and smashed it!


    He had never learned sword techniques before, so he chose to use a simple move like smashing.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi started to sublimate and covered the moon mark that Fairy Ximeng had formed.


    But just as he blocked this move, Sima Ling also launched an attack.


    The brilliant sun was still hanging in the sky.


    A huge hand that was burning with flames descended from the sky, wanting to crush Zhou Feng to death.


    At this moment, the dao soldiers scattered around also exerted their strength.


    The void arrows were shot at the same time, blocking this move slightly.


    Zhou Feng took advantage of this gap and stepped on the starlight. He got rid of the pulling force and dodged this attack in an instant.


    Seeing that he actually blocked this wave of attacks, both Fairy Ximeng and Sima Ling became serious.


    The two of them had attacked together, but they were not able to take down Zhou Feng.


    This was a little embarrassing.


    Even if Zhou Feng had a connate numinous treasure in his hands, their attacks became fiercer. Yet, they still couldn¡¯t take down Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was too tough. When all kinds of attacks hit his body, it seemed that the damage was reduced by half.


    Moreover, there was a baffling backlash. His entire body was like a tortoise with thorns.


    Not to mention that his reaction speed was even faster, and his speed was also superb.


    Most of the attacks were either neutralized in various ways or forcefully dodged.


    One had to know that it was not to withstand or dodge a Dragon Transformation expert¡¯s attacks.


    2


    Starting from the Divine Ability realm, every divine ability that was executed was aligned with the will of heaven and earth. Once executed, the entire person would be pulled by the power of heaven and earth.


    Sometimes, it may seem like the simplest and slowest palm strike, but one couldn¡¯t dodge it due to the pull of the power of heaven and earth. This kind of situation would become even more obvious when a high-level cultivator faced a low-level cultivator.


    However, Zhou Feng had the Starseizer Steps, which was once the sect-guarding skill of the Starseizer Sect.


    It had the ability to get rid of the pull of the power of heaven and earth.


    The faint starlight resonated with the natural formation in the nine heavens, allowing Zhou Feng to temporarily get rid of the pull of the power of heaven and earth.


    Unfortunately, this was only an incomplete version, and it wasn¡¯t even a divine ability.


    If he could cultivate the true Starseizer Steps, he could leave with all kinds of formations and traps as he wished.


    No one would be able to stop him.


    Fairy Ximeng couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer and spoke directly. ¡°First, take care of those dao soldiers by the side!¡±


    This child still had some ability. If they wanted to take him down, they had to take care of those dao soldiers by the side.


    That was because those dao soldiers worked extremely well together. They were always able to attack at critical moments, creating many chances for Zhou Feng to escape.


    It was as if they were real people.


    No one knew how Zhou Feng controlled them.


    If Zhou Feng was compared to a city, the dao soldiers were like a moat.


    If they wanted to attack this city, they had to get rid of the moat.


    ¡°Let me do it! I¡¯ll use the Supreme Heavenly Mirror!¡±


    Sima Ling was getting impatient and lowered his body.


    A mirror appeared above his head.


    It was a supreme-grade dao artifact that contained countless dao charms of the Dao of the Sun.


    Legend had it that the Sima Clan had forged the real Supreme Heavenly Mirror.


    The Supreme Heavenly Mirror was an ancient connate luminous treasure that belonged to the Demons. It was a mighty artifact, but the last Human Emperor had snatched it.


    And it disappeared along with the fall of the last Human Emperor.


    ¡®An opportunity!¡¯ Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed.


    In an instant, the dao soldiers protecting him self-detonated at the same time.


    This kind of self-detonation was equivalent to the self-detonation of a Divine Ability cultivator.


    Moreover, it was not just one self-detonation but many self-detonations at the same time.


    With such power, even a Dragon Transformation cultivator would have to protect themselves from the impact.


    Sima Ling immediately used the Supreme Heavenly Mirror to protect himself.


    Fairy Ximeng was no exception. She was forced to use a green lotus to protect her body.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, had a manic look on his face. The Blood Qi in his entire body flowed backward, and his originally pure white body began to crack.


    At the moment when he was at his peak, the Chaotian Sword finally displayed its former glory.


    Just a trace of Sword Qi broke through Fairy Ximeng¡¯s green lotus¡¯ defenses.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s starlight flashed, and he instantly closed in on Fairy Ximeng.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Fairy Ximeng¡¯s eyes widened slightly as she looked at Zhou Feng.


    She could even see Zhou Feng¡¯s somewhat withered face and the terrifying energy that was about to erupt.


    Soul Punch!


    At this moment, he used all of his killing moves, not hiding the slightest bit.


    This was because Zhou Feng was very clear that if he wanted to get rid of this pursuit, he had to make the people of the three great holy lands feel fear and pain.


    Only when they suffered would they not randomly come and find trouble with him.


    Therefore, he was going all out this time.


    This was also a summary of his cultivation path. He wanted to know how strong he was and whether he was on par with a Dragon Transformation expert.


    In any case, he had a fail-safe! He could just go crazy for once!


    The AI had already optimized Soul Punch, reducing the backlash and turning it more powerful.


    Even Fairy Ximeng, a Dragon Transformation expert, was caught off guard and suffered the attack¡¯s full power.


    She was dazed for half a second, which was more than enough.


    Zhou Feng held the Chaotian Sword in one hand and fought against Fairy Ximeng¡¯s green lotus.


    His other hand rapidly expanded, and a large amount of flesh and blood grew.


    His monster-like left hand stabbed toward Fairy Xinmeng!


    It went through the mountain peaks, pierced through Fairy Ximeng¡¯s chest, and even touched her ribs!


    3

 Chapter 446 - Undead Strike!

    Zhou Feng¡¯s suddenly enlarged and mutated left hand instantly pierced through Fairy Ximeng¡¯s chest and touched her ribs.


    And just as he wanted to take a step further, Fairy Ximeng reacted.


    ¡°Ah!¡± It was an earth-shattering scream!


    Fairy Ximeng¡¯s slender hand lightly touched Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    A wave of law energy began to interweave, and the aura of destruction swept through Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    Zhou Feng cut off one of his arms, and the remaining Blood Qi in his severed left arm instantly exploded.


    It was like a flesh bomb.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was almost crushed into minced meat, and the bones all over his body creaked.


    Traces of golden blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was instantly extinguished, and even his heart stopped beating.


    That crazy attack just now seemed to be the final act of madness before his death.


    Zhou Feng collapsed on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.


    When Sima Ling saw this, his face was filled with schadenfreude because Fairy Ximeng was seriously injured.


    They had underestimated the extent of Zhou Feng¡¯s madness.


    In the face of such a situation, he had not even had the thought of escaping. Instead, he had chosen to fight head-on.


    Actually, with the strength that Zhou Feng had displayed, he would have had a chance to escape if he really wanted,


    ¡°This kid was really strong-willed!¡±


    Sima Ling was in a very good mood because Fairy Ximeng was injured. After that, she would not have the confidence to fight with him for the Chaotian Sword.


    Obviously, Fairy Ximeng thought so too.


    Thus, her beautiful cold face wore an ugly expression now.


    She silently pulled out the remaining left hand.


    Another wave of blood and flesh splattered, and the clothes on her upper body were ruined.


    Fairy Ximeng¡¯s face turned even darker upon seeing this.


    Fortunately, that huge wound began to heal slowly. The body of a Dragon Transformation cultivator had undergone countless transformations, so this kind of injury only needed a little time to heal and recover.


    However, judging from Fairy Ximeng¡¯s slightly pale face, this kind of healing was not without a price.


    In any case, compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Tenacious Heart, her healing ability was quite lacking.


    Unexpectedly, Fairy Ximeng¡¯s expression changed as her wound was gradually closing.


    ¡°He used poison!?¡±


    Fairy Ximeng was somewhat in disbelief.


    The left hand that Zhou Feng left on her chest was filled with poison!


    Moreover, it was a mixture of all kinds of poison that could invade all the organs in her body.


    Although this kind of poison did not pose any threat to Fairy Ximeng, it was troublesome to deal with it.


    ¡®What kind of monster was this? This fellow could even use soul attacks!


    ¡®Also, why was there so much poison in his left arm?¡¯


    All of this was actually thanks to the AI.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s control over his body was already very fine. This was the result of a long period of frantic trial-and-error optimizations.


    Anyway, he had the passive Tenacious Heart, so he was usually very bold in his cultivation.


    Unlike ordinary cultivators who were cautious, he had always been open-minded in his cultivation.


    If he was injured, he just needed to rest and recover.


    The arrival of the AI had made his control over his body even more terrifying.


    His hand¡¯s sudden expansion and mutation was an application of the power of Blood Qi. It could generate terrifying explosive force in a short period.


    As for the poison, it was also the Ai¡¯s product.


    Using poison had been Zhou Feng¡¯s strategy back in the Tri-Gu Sect to deal with the enemy.


    Using poison was a very good choice for someone weak, and he even had the passive Poison Immunity.


    He was even a natural aphrodisiac maker. However, as his strength increased, he stopped concocting poison as he did not have so much time to research new poison formulas.


    However, everything was different with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    He had provided the AI with all kinds of formulas and poison formulas for deduction. The AI had improved them hundreds of times in just a few days.


    The Ai had even made it possible to store poison in his body and use it immediately when necessary.


    Fairy Ximeng was the first victim of this tactic.


    Seeing Fairy Ximeng in such a miserable state, Sima Ling could not help but exclaim, ¡°Poisoned? What a surprise!¡±


    Since the Jade Sword Elder had not come, and Fairy Ximeng was in such a miserable state, then who else could fight with him for the connate numinous treasure?


    In the end, the Chaotian Sword would fall in the hands of his Great Sun Holy Land.


    Sima Ling¡¯s face was full of pride as he approached Zhou Feng¡¯s corpse.


    Zhou Feng did not look any different from a dead person. His skin had become dry, and his body was completely cracked without the slightest hint of vitality. He did not even have a weak heartbeat.


    ¡°This connate numinous treasure is mine!¡±


    Sima Ling bent down to get his hands on the Chaotian Sword.


    Because he knew that this connate numinous treasure already had a spirit, it was basically impossible to use his power to summon it.


    He had to grab it with his hand directly.


    In the distance, Fairy Ximeng, who was stabilizing her condition, was gnashing her teeth.


    ¡®Madman! This Zhou Feng was a madman.


    Since he wanted to fight to the death, why did he have to pick me!?


    ¡®Why didn¡¯t he look for Sima Ling!? Now, I could only watch as this b*stard takes away a connate numinous treasure!¡¯


    Unfortunately, she was powerless. This feeling was nauseating.


    However, Fairy Ximeng did not dare fight with Sima Ling as she was riddled with injuries and was not his match.


    If she attacked, she would be humiliated in the end.


    Thus, she could only watch helplessly as Sima Ling was about to store the connate numinous treasure into his bag.


    However, something unexpected happened.


    The presumably dead Zhou Feng suddenly opened his eyes!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s withered body was like a withered tree that had come back to life. His surging Blood Qi instantly erupted.


    ¡°You¡¯re not dead!?¡±


    Sima Ling was flabbergasted. He did not expect that Zhou Feng was not dead.


    Surprisingly, he had been waiting for him to come and take the Chaotian Sword.


    Nonetheless, Sima Ling was also determined enough. He was fearless in the face of such a situation as the Supreme Heavenly Mirror was in front of his chest.


    Zhou Feng already expected this, so he used the Chaotian Sword as a rod and swept it horizontally.


    The Supreme Heavenly Mirror was swept away a little.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand expanded and mutated just like his left hand, and he stabbed it into Sima Ling¡¯s chest. This time, he even wanted to take out his heart.


    ¡°Thief! How dare you!?¡±


    Sima Ling¡¯s anger soared to the clouds. A junior had pulled a fast one on him!


    He racked his brains but could not figure out how Zhou Feng had managed to hide from his divine sense.


    Wasn¡¯t Zhou Feng dead just now?


    Of course, Sima Ling¡¯s counterattack was also swift in his rage.


    The Supreme Heavenly Mirror shot a few rays of extreme sunlight and pierced through Zhou Feng¡¯s body in the blink of an eye.


    Zhou Feng was sent flying, and seven or eight bloody holes appeared on his body.


    But in the next second, he stood up with a carp kick.


    He hunched his body and looked at the miserable looks of Sima Ling and Fairy Ximeng. His calm face unconsciously revealed a trace of a smile.


    1


    It was obviously a faint smile, but it made Sima Ling and Fairy Ximeng feel cold.


    1

 Chapter 447 - "You Can Have the Connate Numinous Treasure, I’m

    Even though they had already obtained all of Zhou Feng¡¯s information, Fairy Ximeng and Sima Ling were both frightened by that crazy attitude.


    A madman wasn¡¯t scary. What was scary was that said madman¡¯s strength wasn¡¯t weak!


    That ability to explode flesh and blood was actually able to injure a Dragon Transformation expert.


    Most importantly, that connate numinous treasure was able to break through their defenses.


    Without that connate numinous treasure, Zhou Feng¡¯s attack just now wouldn¡¯t even be worth mentioning.


    ¡®There¡¯s still quite a gap¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng, who had lost both his arms, looked at the two pale-faced people in front of him.


    He already knew the distance between him and a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    Relying on the Chaotian Sword, he could exchange a few blows with a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    But to truly kill a Dragon Transformation cultivator, there was still quite a gap.


    However, it was also a bit difficult for a Dragon Transformation cultivator to kill him.


    ¡®It¡¯s all thanks to the existence of the AI. Otherwise, I wouldn¡¯t dare to cut off my arms like this!¡¯


    He could already feel flesh and blood sprouting out from his shoulders at this time.


    This was not only the result of the passive Tenacious Heart but also the result of the AI helping to regulate the cells in his body.


    Updates by VJPN0VEL.C0M


    Limb regeneration! This was the exclusive property of Dragon Transformation cultivators, but now Zhou Feng had obtained it in advance with the help of the AI.


    Otherwise, he would not have acted so crazily.


    The severed arms would take some time to grow back.


    He could even re-cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture to a certain extent.


    Previously, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical aptitude was the absolute worst. After several rounds of enhancement, his aptitude had reached the level of a young genius.


    Still, he was far inferior to those true geniuses.


    Therefore, he began to think about how to let his body continue to break through the limits.


    The answer the AI had given him was to start over.


    According to the analysis of the Emperor Coiling Scripture, the original version definitely had a step of flesh and blood reconstruction.


    Although the original Coiling Emperor had had monstrous talent, he had relied solely on his body to ascend to the throne of the Human Emperor.


    His physical body must have undergone countless transformations, so the AI followed this train of thought and began to deduce.


    Compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s previous blind guesses, the AI was much more powerful in terms of how to cultivate various cultivation techniques.


    After all, the AI could directly simulate it, and it could even use Zhou Feng as a blueprint for experiments.


    Anyway, it was just a quick recovery, so Zhou Feng¡¯s body could be created at will.


    Rebuild the foundation! Cultivate again!


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s plan. If he wanted to break through further, he had to erase the traces of his previous reckless cultivation.


    Then, he would use the most suitable cultivation technique to reach the apex.


    Cutting off his own arms was just the beginning.


    ¡°Kid, you¡¯re really ruthless!¡±


    In the time it took for Sima Ling to breathe, the injuries on his body had already recovered.


    His aura did not weaken much either.


    This time, he did not take the initiative to attack Zhou Feng. When he looked at Zhou Feng, a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy attack had slightly frightened these two Dragon Transformation Elders.


    There would naturally be nothing to say if there was only Sima Ling on the scene.


    Even if Zhou Feng was very troublesome, Sima Ling would still spend some effort killing him.


    But the problem was that there was still Fairy Ximeng.


    What Sima Ling was thinking at this moment was that if he made a move again, this madman would self-detonate desperately.


    At that time, his injuries would be even more severe, and the Chaotian Sword would fall into Fairy Ximeng¡¯s hands.


    Both Sima Ling and Fairy Ximeng had not fully recovered from their injuries.


    This would slightly affect their battle prowess, which was very important in same realm battles.


    To put it bluntly, Sima Ling did not make a move now because he was afraid of Fairy Ximeng.


    As for Zhou Feng, although he was a little afraid of him, he did not pose any threat at all.


    Zhou Feng had lost both his arms. How much strength to struggle did he still have?


    He could not even pick up the Chaotian Sword!


    Sima Ling spoke to Zhou Feng while observing Fairy Ximeng¡¯s situation.


    He realized that Fairy Ximeng was just standing there silently and did not express her stance.


    ¡®Is it for the Chaotian Sword? I see¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and understood what was going on.


    In the eyes of these two Dragon Transformation cultivators, he was still less important than a connate numinous treasure.


    Although he was the enemy of the three holy lands, he was still just a Divine Ability cultivator.


    To the three holy lands, he was just a slightly stronger ant.


    On one side was a strong ant, and on the other side was an incomparably precious connate numinous treasure.


    These two people would immediately vote with their feet with just a slight thought.


    ¡®Go! This counts as helping me once!¡¯


    Zhou Feng only thought for half a second before kicking the Chaotian Sword toward Sima Ling.


    He knew that the Chaotian Sword had a spirit and could understand his words.


    It had sent him a message that it would help him three times!


    He had already wasted one chance while dealing with the two of them, and now he was wasting another chance!


    In other words, as long as the Chaotian Sword helped Zhou Feng one more time, it would be able to break away from him and find its fated master.


    Instantly, the Chaotian Sword glowed slightly.


    ¡°Hm?¡±


    Just as Sima Ling was carefully watching Fairy Ximeng¡¯s performance, his hand subconsciously caught the Chaotian Sword that was flying toward him.


    ¡°The connate numinous treasure!¡±


    At that moment, Fairy Ximeng could not hold it in any longer. She definitely could not let Sima Ling obtain this treasure.


    If the Great Sun Holy Land had a connate numinous treasure, it would create a huge pressure on the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    ¡°Wait a minute! We should get rid of this sinister brat now! This brat wants us to fight!¡±


    Sima Ling naturally saw through Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.


    He wanted them to have a dispute and take the opportunity to escape.


    But with that being said, Sima Ling advised Fairy Ximeng not to make a move and to deal with Zhou Feng first.


    On the other hand, a force of nine suns appeared in his hand, wanting to seal the Chaotian Sword.


    Sima Ling had the inheritance of the holy land and knew too well how to deal with connate numinous treasures.


    At that moment, countless petals suddenly fell from the sky.


    It was as if the goddess of heaven was scattering flowers in all directions, but there was an endless amount of killing intent hidden behind it.


    Fairy Ximeng was serious!


    When Zhou Feng had injured her previously, Fairy Ximeng had not exploded at the first moment, but now she was no longer hiding anything.


    Zhou Feng shrugged and took this opportunity to escape quickly.


    ¡°Hand over the connate numinous treasure to me for safekeeping! Then we will chase after that kid together!¡±


    Fairy Ximeng saw Zhou Feng escaping from the corner of her eyes, but she did not make a move to chase after him.


    Instead, she gnashed her teeth and continued to attack Sima Ling in order to snatch the Chaotian Sword.


    ¡°Hmph! Do you believe what you say?¡±


    Sima Ling naturally would not agree to such a request. How could he hand over the duck that he had obtained?


    As long as he had the Chaotian Sword in hand, even if Zhou Feng escaped, it would not be that important to him.


    If he acquired this connate numinous treasure, his mission would be a success.


    As for Fairy Ximeng being unable to complete her mission, that was none of his business.

 Chapter 448 - The Treasures Return!

    Sima Ling and Fairy XImeng fought over the ownership of the Chaotian Sword. They did not have the time to care about Zhou Feng, this great enemy,


    Zhou Feng took advantage of this excellent opportunity to dive into the forest in the north.


    Then, he jumped into the big river and erased all traces.


    He escaped successfully!


    Perhaps none of the disciples of the three holy lands would have thought that he could escape from the hands of the two Dragon Transformation Elders.


    This was almost impossible to accomplish, after all.


    Zhou Feng had a connate numinous treasure in his hands, which sounded like an incredible thing.


    This also indirectly proved how powerful Zhou Feng currently was.


    Although the Chaotian Sword was the cause of Sima Ling and Fairy XImeng¡¯s fierce battle, Zhou Feng would have knelt down right from the start if he was not powerful.


    Not only had he withstood the attacks of two Dragon Transformation cultivators, but he also managed to injure them.


    This kind of battle record was quite exaggerated.


    Moreover, it wouldn¡¯t be an easy matter for the three holy lands to find Zhou Feng next time.


    They could find Zhou Feng so easily because of the Blood Resentment Art through the karmic strings.


    However, Zhou Feng had passively purified the Blood Resentment Mark.


    Finding Zhou Feng was like finding a needle in a haystack without the Blood Resentment Mark.


    After all, the three great holy lands could not use the Blood Resentment Art again because there weren¡¯t that many sacrifices anymore.


    When the higher-ups of the three great holy lands found out about this, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble.


    It would even be a huge blow to the reputation of the three holy lands.


    Zhou Feng had used the three holy lands as his stepping stone and became a super celebrity on the Southern Border.


    To think that he could escape the pursuit of the three holy lands every single time! This was the first time such a fierce person had appeared!


    ¡®It¡¯s about time. Let¡¯s do It again!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was currently hiding at the bottom of the river, and every once in a while, he would use his passive Bloodline Simulation to change his identity and aura.


    He did not know how far he had swam, but he felt that the river bed was getting bigger and bigger.


    It was as if he had entered a large river from a tributary.


    There were even various types of aquatic creatures appearing at the bottom of the river.


    ¡®I should not leave the Southern Border yet¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment, but he did not leave the large river. Instead, he dug a hole at the bottom of the river.


    Then, he used some methods to drain the water out and settle down at the bottom of the river.


    After settling down, he took a deep breath.


    Then, he began to sense the Chaotian Sword.


    The Chaotian Sword was a connate numinous treasure, and he wouldn¡¯t throw it away so easily.


    The Chaotian Sword had his spiritual imprint on it. Although this spiritual imprint could only be branded on the body of the sword, this was enough.


    ¡­


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    Sima Ling, who was still fighting with Fairy XImeng, suddenly felt that something was wrong.


    The originally quiet Chaotian Sword suddenly moved.


    The pure and tranquil Sword Qi instantly broke the seal on the sword. Then, the sword turned into a shooting star and disappeared in the air.


    The Chaotian Sword hadn¡¯t resisted at all when Sima Ling placed the seal on the sword. Therefore, Sima Ling had been under the impression that the Chaotian Sword had acknowledged him as its master.


    The Spiritual Treasure had a spirit! It would also choose its own master.


    Compared to Zhou Feng, a Divine Ability cultivator, choosing a Dragon Transformation cultivator was very logical.


    Unexpectedly, the Chaotian Sword suddenly burst with power, broke the seal, and then disappeared into the sky.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Fairy XImeng was also stunned. Now that the connate numinous treasure was gone, it was naturally the reason she didn¡¯t make a move.


    That connate numinous treasure should have used origin power in order to break through Sima Ling¡¯s seal?


    Otherwise, it would be impossible for a connate numinous treasure to erupt with such power.


    But why?


    The power of origin was a little consumed, especially for a spiritual connate numinous treasure like the Chaotian Sword.


    Under normal circumstances, it would not do so.


    ¡°What is this? A futile effort?¡±


    Fairy XImeng was a little regretful for a moment. If she had known this would happen, she would have taken down Zhou Feng immediately.


    But thinking about it, she might have still chosen to let Zhou Feng go and fight for the Chaotian Sword.


    ¡°B*tch!¡±


    Compared to Fairy XImeng¡¯s regret, Sima Ling was gnashing his teeth because of the Chaotian Sword! It was like a cooked duck flying away!


    If it weren¡¯t for Fairy XImeng, this b*tch, stopping him, he would have already strengthened the seal on the Chaotian Sword.


    At that time, the Chaotian Sword would have no chance to escape.


    Even a Dragon Transformation cultivator with a firm dao heart couldn¡¯t help but start cursing upon thinking of this.


    ¡°Hmph! Trash!¡±


    Fairy XImeng was also completely unaccustomed to Sima Ling. She snorted and turned around to leave.


    The muscles on Sima Ling¡¯s face twitched slightly, and his fists were tightly clenched.


    But he still didn¡¯t choose to make a move in the end. He just changed directions and left.


    Failure!


    This operation was a complete failure. They had completely fallen into this little thief¡¯s scheme.


    Moreover, it was possible that the direction that the Chaotian Sword flew toward was Zhou Feng¡¯s direction.


    The target of this operation had not been completed, and they were even slightly injured.


    Even so, Sima Ling and Fairy XImeng did not have the intention to continue pursuing.


    Sima Ling and Fairy XImeng had already formed a feud, so it was almost impossible for them to cooperate.


    Now that they were fighting without meeting each other, it already appeared that both sides were very restrained.


    As for pursuing Zhou Feng alone, that was even more impossible.


    They did not even know where he had run off to nor how many trump cards he still had.


    If he were to escape again, they would lose all their face.


    It was better to leave this troublesome matter to someone else.


    ¡­


    ¡®One second! Two seconds! Three seconds!¡¯ Zhou Feng muttered in his heart.


    When he counted to three, the Chaotian Sword returned to his side.


    ¡°It¡¯s really back!¡±


    He carefully observed the Chaotian Sword and felt much happier.


    Fortunately, he didn¡¯t lose much this time, only a few dao soldiers.


    Apart from that, he didn¡¯t pay a heavy price to escape from the hands of two Dragon Transformation cultivators.


    However, the damage to the Chaotian Sword seemed to be quite serious.


    Zhou Feng could feel that the Chaotian Sword was much weaker, which was a very strange feeling.


    He stroked the Chaotian Sword in his hand, and a voice transmission sounded in his mind. ¡®Once!¡¯


    As long as the Chaotian Sword helped him one more time, then the two sides would be even.


    The favor of saving the Chaotian Sword from the Cold Wind mountain range would be repaid in full.


    At that time, the Chaotian Sword would leave to find a true successor and pass down the true inheritance of the Chaotian Temple.


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows, and a strange expression appeared on his calm face.

 Chapter 449 - Passive Fusion? Two Becoming One?

    No matter what, Zhou Feng had passed this round.


    He had successfully escaped from the Cold Wind mountain range, and from a certain point of view, he had even repelled two Dragon Transformation cultivators.


    With his current concealment abilities, he should be able to leave the Southern Border if he wanted to.


    The three great holy lands could not possibly mobilize more than a dozen cultivators in the Dragon Transformation realm to search for him because it was really not worth it.


    Dragon Transformation cultivators were already rare in the barren Southern Border. Everyone needed to be frugal with precious resources or go into seclusion to comprehend and go further in the cultivation path.


    Ordering more than a dozen Dragon Transformation cultivators to waste a lot of time searching for Zhou Feng was a matter of extremely poor value for money.


    ¡°Now that I¡¯ve attracted most of the attention, nothing should happen to Big Yellow.¡±


    Zhou Feng planned to behave himself for the time being.


    At the very least, he would regrow his hands and then start to rebuild his foundation step by step.


    As for the resources needed to rebuild his foundation, he planned to take them from the three holy lands.


    Since they had already formed a grudge, he might as well play a little more.


    The chance of rebirth was still there, and Zhou Feng was not afraid at all.


    There was also the Chaotian Sword, a connate numinous treasure. HE had to think of a way to subdue it.


    With such a great helper, he could not let it slip away.


    While Zhou Feng began to plan the path of cultivation step by step, the three great holy lands began to sweep the Cold Wind mountain range in a frenzy.


    The tardy Jade Sword Elder finally arrived.


    However, none of the disciples dared to mention Zhou Feng¡¯s name.


    This was because two Dragon Transformation Elders had gone hunting down a vagabond Divine Ability cultivator, and they returned empty-handed.


    Moreover, they had suffered a number of injuries. This was simply a conversation that would last for the rest of the day.


    However, even though many people were very curious, they did not dare to ask anything.


    Fairy Ximeng and Sima Ling had returned with black faces. They might lose their little lives if anyone dared to gossip behind them.


    That was why the three holy lands were strangely silent about Zhou Feng. Almost no one mentioned him.


    They were not even allowed to talk about Zhou Feng¡¯s deeds.


    After a few operations, everyone seemed to have forgotten about Zhou Feng on the surface.


    The three holy lands were still three huge mountains, firmly pressing on the heads of all the Southern Border cultivators.


    This was no different from the past.


    The only exception was that the three holy lands, which had never cooperated, began to sweep the Cold Wind mountain range at this time.


    The Cold Wind mountain range was much easier to sweep now that the great Devil was gone. As long as they persisted in managing it, they believed that it would not take long for it to return to its former glory.


    ¡­


    When Su Yuan heard that the two Dragon Transformation Elders had returned in defeat, he could not help but swallow his saliva.


    Fortunately, at that time, he had only encountered a dao soldier that Zhou Feng had refined. If he had met Zhou Feng himself at that time, he might have lost his life on the spot.


    It was better not to meet such a peerless fierce person.


    ¡®I¡¯d better cultivate honestly from now on!¡¯


    After this incident, Su Yuan became obedient and began to calm down.


    There was no other way. He had used up all his trump cards and even suffered serious injuries, but he only dealt with Zhou Feng¡¯s dao soldier in the end.


    He did not dare to make a big deal out of it, afraid that others would find out that he had lost all his trump cards.


    Just like that, the three great holy lands were like ostriches burying their heads in the sand. No one talked about Zhou Feng.


    However, in the dark, nobody knew what was going on.


    The higher-ups of the three great holy lands did not intend to let Zhou Feng off.


    However, the matter regarding Zhou Feng changed from the light to behind the shadows.


    ¡­


    While the three holy lands were pretending to be ostriches, Zhou Feng¡¯s progress was exceptionally fast.


    The AI was constantly deducting the Emperor Coiling Scripture. At this time, it could allow the arms to grow back.


    Moreover, when they grew back, their overall quality would be supreme.


    To put it simply, this involved the remodeling of the meridians, the regeneration of the bone marrow, and the enhancement of flesh and blood.


    In a sense, this was akin to opening another path in this world.


    Almost no one in this world could replicate this, however, as only the AI was capable of such fine control.


    Of course, this was only Zhou Feng¡¯s speculation. Perhaps a higher realm cultivator could easily do this.


    But as far as he knew, a Dragon Transformation cultivator definitely couldn¡¯t do this.


    ¡®Let¡¯s begin!¡¯


    Zhou Feng ordered the AI to begin the first test of regenerating a severed arm.


    If it succeeded, the right arm would grow back.


    Upon receiving his instructions, the AI began to control his body, mobilizing his Blood Qi and secreting various hormones.


    The granulation, which was already showing signs of growth, began to sprout crazily.


    The specific operation of the right arm¡¯s regeneration was first to grow out flesh and blood to form the embryonic form of the arm.


    Then, it began to cultivate the bones, nerves, flesh, and blood.


    The process was extremely painful, so Zhou Feng cut off the feeling of pain at the first moment.


    It took a lot of time to regenerate the severed limb, so Zhou Feng took this opportunity to draw a new passive skill.


    He had obtained a lot of destiny power after escaping from the hands of the two Dragon Transformation Elders.


    The progress bar on the skill panel was full.


    Therefore, he could draw out a new passive skill.


    ¡®Draw!¡¯


    Zhou Feng recited it in his heart without hesitation.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    ¡°The passive effect of the new passive skill has overlapped with Old Skin¡¯s passive effect. Passive fusion¡­¡±


    Originally, he thought that the process of obtaining a new passive skill this time would be the same.


    There wouldn¡¯t be any surprises, but he didn¡¯t expect it to be a little different this time.


    ¡®Overlapping with Old Skin¡¯s passive effect? Passive fusion? What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    When he saw the words ¡®passive fusion¡¯, he was flabbergasted.


    ¡®Passive skills can actually be fused?¡¯


    Zhou Feng knew that passive skills could be upgraded.


    That was the case for the passive Gluttony, which he had obtained in the beginning. He had somehow upgraded it to a Level-2 passive skill.


    In the beginning, it had helped him quite a bit.


    But since then, he had never been able to upgrade his passive skills.


    A hint of anticipation appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes for a moment.


    After the two passive skills fused, would it become an even more powerful passive skill?


    It would be a huge loss if the new passive skill were a trashy one.


    ¡°Fusion successful!¡±


    Growable Skin: A layer of old skin will grow outside your body, and this layer of old skin can continuously grow. This layer of old skin can reduce 5% of the impact¡¯s power.


    2


    (Max growth rate: 50%)


    ¡°Growable Skin?¡±


    Inexplicably, Zhou Feng felt his body become itchy.


    A layer of rough skin covered the previously smooth skin.


    ¡°This passive fusion seems to be abnormal, eh?¡±


    He carefully read this newly acquired passive skill¡¯s description, and the first thing he felt was the power.

 Chapter 450 - Flesh and Blood Replacement! Foundation Reconstruction!

    ¡°It can grow!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attention was focused on this new passive Grownable Skin.


    It could actually grow up to become immune to 50% of the power impact.


    Didn¡¯t this mean he would be invincible in hand-to-hand combat?


    ¡°Then how is this skill triggered? Is it the same as Old Skin? If I keep getting injured and recovering, will this layer of skin become stronger and stronger?¡±


    He made a reasonable guess because this new passivity was based on Old Skin.


    Perhaps he would have to test it out in the future.


    At present, the most pressing matter was to grow two arms. Otherwise, he would not be used to it.


    Soon brand new arms had grown out.


    If one did not look at their loose appearance, these arms was exactly the same as before.


    But now, these arms were just an empty frame. There were no bones or meridians in it.


    Next, it needed to be filled continuously until it returned to the same state as before.


    ¡°I can begin with the blood refinement.¡±


    Zhou Feng was not in a hurry. He filled the bones and began to refine his newly grown arms.


    The golden-yellow Human Emperor Blood in his body began to circulate slowly. He was refining this newly grown flesh and blood.


    Because his arms were newly grown, it could not withstand the terrifying power of his Blood Qi.


    A piece of flesh and blood burst and stained the ground.


    However, this did not matter as the passive Tenacious Heart was healing him.


    He was constantly helping the ruptured wound, trying to maintain the strength of the newly grown flesh and blood at the same level as the original flesh and blood.


    After the refinement was successful, it was time to refine the bones, meridians, and so on.


    From a certain point of view, Zhou Feng was using his own method to reshape his body.


    During this process, he also removed all kinds of internal injuries.


    What he needed to solve next was the problem of the traces of chaotic Blood Qi and impure Spiritual Qi.


    It could be said that this body of his really did not have a good foundation.


    To climb out of the Tri-Gu Sect, he had needed sufficient strength.


    And in order to obtain sufficient strength in a short period, Zhou Feng had used many methods that were short of success and short of profits.


    Then, he had relied on his passive skills.


    He rampaged all the way, fighting against people of a higher level. He even had the imposing manner of killing Gods and Buddhas in his way.


    However, this did not last long. He had wanted to completely reverse the problem of his weak foundation a long time ago.


    However, he had had no idea where to start.


    Fortunately, the AI had appeared.


    With the AI, Zhou Feng felt as if he had added 100,000,000 to his IQ.


    1


    Many difficult problems were solved effortlessly, and his ideas were implemented one by one.


    ¡°Directly becoming a genius to crush my opponent, this is what I want! Scr*w fighting above my level!¡±


    Zhou Feng had been holding back a fire in his heart.


    He hated fighting above his level and turning the tables against the wind.


    From a long time ago, he had hoped that he could be someone with a higher cultivation level so that others could challenge him above their level.


    1


    But because of his poor aptitude and other factors, his cultivation speed was slow.


    It had never been possible, but now it was different. He was finally able to change his aptitude.


    He had a chance to become a genius in the eyes of others, an existence that could crush others.


    While he was thinking this, Zhou Feng¡¯s arms had already begun to grow bones.


    The plan to grow bones was also very simple. It was to plant a bone seed and continuously provide nutrients.


    Under the AI¡¯s constraints, the bone seed would grow into the bone that he needed.


    After a period, the bone grew back.


    During this time, Zhou Feng had been using Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi to temper it.


    The process of limb regeneration was extremely smooth.


    Zhou Feng felt that his arms had returned in just three days!


    And compared to before, these arms had become stronger.


    ¡°Perfect!¡±


    He clenched his right hand into a fist and lightly hammered it down.


    Boom!


    For a moment, the earth shook, and Zhou Feng¡¯s hideout almost collapsed.


    It also alarmed many aquatic creatures at the bottom of the river.


    And this was only using the power of the physical body. There was no Blood Qi attached to it.


    The reconstructed right hand no longer looked like a human¡¯s but rather like a daemon¡¯s.


    Or was it more appropriate to describe it as a Qilin¡¯s limb?


    ¡°But the consumption is really huge¡­¡±


    After experiencing the effects of the complete transformation, Zhou Feng was both excited and amazed by the huge consumption.


    During these three days, in order to provide nutrients for his arms, he had transformed into a good-for-nothing and stuffed everything into his mouth for his Level-2 Gluttony to break down all the food into nutrients and Blood Qi.


    The food and Spirit Stones in Zhou Feng¡¯s storage ring were all depleted in these three days.


    That¡¯s right! It was that exaggerated!


    One had to know that he had previously plundered the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Still, these resources were still not enough.


    He needed more food, more spirit fruits, and more spirit herbs.


    ¡°I still need to replace all my flesh and bones! And I must do it quickly!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately thought of the three great holy lands.


    The three great holy lands had been the Southern Border¡¯s overlords for so many years, so they would definitely have a lot of cultivation resources.


    Perhaps only the three great holy lands could satisfy his appetite in this region.


    He had to carry out a full-body replacement within a certain period of time.


    If time dragged on, then the new flesh and bones would slowly be assimilated by the old flesh and blood.


    Also, according to Zhou Feng¡¯s plan, he would gradually replace all the flesh and bones in his body.


    His body was a mix of old and new flesh and blood now. This situation would cause his flesh and blood to be extremely disharmonious, and his control over his strength would be greatly reduced.


    Even if the AI were to assist him, it wouldn¡¯t be able to eliminate this side effect completely.


    He had to wait until all his flesh and blood had been replaced with new flesh and blood before he could regain absolute control over his body.


    As such, it was inevitable that his battle prowess would be greatly reduced.


    Also, it would be a little inappropriate for him to go to the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory to forage for food.


    ¡°I¡¯ll change my appearance and head to the Jade Lake Holy Land.¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately thought of a countermeasure.


    Female cultivators were the mainstream of the Jade Lake Holy Land, and they were the most enthusiastic when it came to marriage and subduing talented vagabond cultivators.


    Therefore, the Jade Lake Holy Land was a place where many vagabond cultivators gathered.


    He could completely pretend to be a talented vagabond cultivator and wait for an opportunity to strike in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    After all, the most dangerous place was the safest place. No one would think he was brazen enough to do something like that.


    After offending the three holy lands, Zhou Feng not only did not run away immediately, but he would also hide in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    When his physical body¡¯s transformation was complete, he would compete with the three holy lands.


    He was also itching to enter the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s lotus pond.


    If he could get a lotus flower, that would be the best.


    It just so happened that he didn¡¯t have a defensive spiritual artifact.

 Chapter 451 - Immortal Peach City

    Zhou Feng immediately made up his mind to go to the Jade Lake Holy Land to fight for resources.


    Of course, he still needed to make some preparations before taking action.


    At the very least, he had to refine a batch of dao soldiers as a guarantee.


    The dao soldiers he had refined previously had all been destroyed.


    Now, he could only refine another batch.


    With his previous experience, refining them this time was quite simple.


    It only took him less time to refine 10 dao soldiers again.


    The specifications were exactly the same as before.


    But Zhou Feng had used up a lot of Blood Qi for this.


    The Blood Qi and Spiritual QI needed to regrow an arm was too much.


    Not to mention, during this process, he had also refined his hands repeatedly, trying to refine them into spiritual weapons.


    This kind of refinement also required the powerful computational power of the AI, and things like computational power consumed his soul power at every moment.


    The rebirth of flesh and blood was simply a double torture for Zhou Feng¡¯s body and soul.


    But this was also something that had to be done. As long as his entire body was reconstructed, his path of cultivation would be smooth sailing.


    And after his cultivation increased, he could do it again.


    He would rebuild his body again and again until he reached the peak.


    So what if he had a mortal body? In the end, Zhou Feng was confident that he could surpass countless geniuses.


    ¡­


    Immortal Peach City was an important city within the jurisdiction of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Because it was rich in spirit peaches, it was called Immortal Peach City.


    Every year during the harvest season, the peach trees in the forest were the most eye-catching scenery.


    Because of this reason, many cultivators gathered in Immortal Peach City every year.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Jade Lake Holy Land would also hold various son-in-law recruitment events there.


    The purpose was to attract talented vagabond cultivators and the geniuses of some small sects in order to supplement their talent pool.


    After all, the Jade Lake Holy Land was one of the few sects that were completely dominated by women.


    After much consideration, Zhou Feng finally chose to come to Immortal Peach City.


    The reason was very simple. Immortal Peach City had enough spirit peaches.


    Each of these spirit peaches contained Spiritual Qi, and they also had the effect of nourishing the body.


    This was too important for him as he needed to reconstruct his body.


    ¡°It¡¯s so beautiful!¡±


    As soon as Zhou Feng got close to Immortal Peach City, he saw a peach forest.


    Moreover, all of them were protected by formations, and there were even some forest ranger disciples patrolling from time to time.


    This was a completely different scenery.


    Even the surrounding Spiritual Qi was denser than the other places.


    ¡®Perhaps the spirit peach trees had drawn the Spiritual Qi here?¡¯


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s current appearance was a little glaring compared to this beautiful scenery.


    He had a bald head, and his face was full of fierce flesh!


    His right arm was still drooping down, and he had a hunchback.


    This was his new look in order not to let people associate him with his previous appearance.


    Zhou Feng had given himself a superplastic surgery. Anyway, he could easily become another person with the AI.


    After his flesh and blood had been completely reconstructed, he planned to return to his previous charming appearance.


    ¡®It¡¯s not good to be too charming. I need to keep a low profile now!¡¯


    He started to worry about his charm being too high.


    This was not Zhou Feng bragging, but because several passives had directly increased his charm.


    The most hateful thing was that said passive skills could not be turned off.


    Even if he had turned into such a person, he was still very dazzling in the eyes of others.


    Inexplicably, a fierce aura emanated from his body.


    One look and one could tell that he was not to be trifled with.


    ¡°Quick, Look! That person!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°That person¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance quickly attracted many handsome men and beautiful women.


    This was no one on this street with an average appearance.


    Even the merchants who came to do business had thick eyebrows and big eyes. They all had refined and easygoing appearances.


    His appearance was like a husky appearing among a pack of wolves.


    This naturally attracted attention.


    However, because Zhou Feng¡¯s current appearance was extremely fierce, coupled with his Divine Ability cultivation, no one dared to say anything.


    At that moment, he also noticed that the people around him seemed to have very beautiful facial characteristics.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? I would have turned into a different appearance if I had known earlier. Am I not standing out like a crane among chickens?¡±


    Originally, he had turned into this appearance because he wanted to intimidate some villains under a less high-profile situation so that they would not find trouble with him.


    However, the current situation was that he had directly become the most attention-grabbing cub on this street.


    In fact, Zhou Feng did not know that being handsome enough was a very popular thing in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Let¡¯s look at a small example. Everyone should understand what was going on.


    The Youth Retaining Pill, which didn¡¯t improve one¡¯s cultivation in the slightest, was the most popular pill in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    This situation was almost impossible in other places.


    In other places, no matter how much a pill improved cultivation, it would always come first.


    There was also the matter of coming here to do business. If you were a super handsome guy, it would be very easy for you to gain the favor of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Under the same conditions, they would choose you first.


    It was precisely because of this situation that the people who came to Immortal Peach City didn¡¯t look bad.


    But to be honest, it was very easy for a cultivator to change their appearance with the increase in cultivation.


    Moreover, cultivation itself was an act of constantly optimizing oneself to improve oneself.


    Even if you were originally very ugly, as long as you continued to cultivate, your appearance would naturally become good-looking.


    Of course, if your foundation were too poor, your appearance wouldn¡¯t become devastatingly beautiful. At most, you would become an ordinary person.


    ¡®Troublesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mental fortitude was strong in the face of so many gazes.


    He walked as if nothing had happened. At the same time, he kept stuffing jerky into his mouth.


    Before this, he had already finished all the things that he could eat.


    And all of these things had turned into Blood Qi.


    The jerky he was eating now was the prey he had hunted on the road.


    Although the Blood Qi provided was lackluster, it was still better than nothing.


    His right arm was currently growing bone marrow, and he needed a lot of nutrients.


    It was worth mentioning that under this crazy devouring, the passive effect of Level-2 Gluttony provided a lot of attributes, such as attack, defense, and so on.


    However, this enhancement was almost non-existent.


    Level 2 Gluttony¡¯s most powerful attribute was that it could decompose anything that entered his stomach and convert them into nutrients that he needed.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change as he walked step by step into Immortal Peach City.


    Just like before, he first found a place to gather information.


    After that, he would act according to the information he gathered.


    ¡®The three holy lands should be looking for me right now, right?¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to order the AI to gather all the information about this city, including the information about everyone who passed by.


    The more information he gathered, the more accurate the prediction of Hexadirectional Calculation would be.


    Once something went wrong, he could immediately run away.


    After all, this Immortal Peach City was also under the suppression of a great formation. He would probably be trapped and beaten up if he didn¡¯t act smart.

 Chapter 452 - Could Being Beautiful Increase one’s Strength?

    Zhou Feng¡¯s plans in Immortal Peach City didn¡¯t go very smoothly because of his unlikable appearance.


    Fortunately, there wasn¡¯t too much trouble due to his high cultivation.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? The Jade Lake Holy Land has ceased chasing me or something?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was somewhat puzzled.


    He had originally wanted to inquire about himself.


    But to his surprise, no one was talking about him.


    There wasn¡¯t even any piece of information about him.


    Most people didn¡¯t seem to know him.


    But that was impossible!


    He had killed many Jade Lake disciples back in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    Logically speaking, the Jade Lake Holy Land wouldn¡¯t let him go.


    Although he was very puzzled, he didn¡¯t want to get to the bottom of it and cause trouble.


    ¡®Forget it! Forget it!¡¯


    Since he couldn¡¯t find out anything, he might as well not find out.


    Wouldn¡¯t it be better to focus on those ripe spirit peaches?


    Although he didn¡¯t find out anything about him, he did find out a lot of other information.


    First of all, the spirit peaches planted in Immortal Peach City all came from the Jade Lake Immortal Peach.


    It was said that this Jade Lake Immortal Peach was planted in the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s headquarters.


    Moreover, according to those people, this Jade Lake Immortal Peach was as strong as a dragon and almost a hundred meters tall.


    Its branches and leaves were luxuriant, almost reaching the sky. There were five or six Spirit Veins supplying Spiritual Qi underground.


    In order to feed this Jade Lake Immortal Peach, the Jade Lake Holy Land had spent a lot of effort to set up all kinds of Spirit Gathering Formations and forcibly connect the nearby Spirit Veins.


    After all, the Jade Lake Holy Land wasn¡¯t like those sects from the Central Plains that could extract the entire Spirit Vein and terraform mountains and rivers.


    Therefore, they could only settle for the second-best and connect the Spirit Veins.


    This would waste a large number of resources and time, but the reward for doing so was generous.


    Every time this Jade Lake Immortal Peach bore fruit, the faint fragrance it emitted would make one¡¯s pores relax.


    If one ate an Immortal Peach, it could instantly change their aptitude, and at the same time, one could comprehend a law.


    One would almost instantly break through to the Divine Ability realm, and it was of great help to cultivators in the Dragon Transformation realm.


    It was a spiritual object that could directly help one comprehend laws, and such a rare resource was simply impossible to buy.


    However, the production of this heaven-defying Immortal Peach was also very low.


    Ten Immortal Peaches in ten years was already considered not bad.


    After all, this Immortal Peach matured once every ten years.


    This Jade Lake Immortal Peach was definitely the lifeblood of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng did not dare to have such thoughts.


    However, this was the descendant of the Jade Lake Immortal Peach. He could have such thoughts.


    All the peach trees in the Immortal Peach City were the descendants of that Immortal Peach tree.


    Furthermore, they would be distributed to the Jade Lake disciples to plant. Every year, they would also filter out some peach trees that were of poor quality.


    After that, they would continue to optimize the tree species. The Jade Lake Holy Land had always wanted to cultivate another Jade Lake Immortal Peach.


    ¡®Peach Appraisal Convention!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s goal was the Peach Appraisal Convention.


    The so-called Peach Appraisal Convention was an event where all the harvested spirit peaches would be gathered, and everyone could appraise the newly harvested spirit peaches.


    The best quality would naturally be for the Jade Lake Holy Land to digest by itself, while the rest would be sold to other sects.


    There would even be a son-in-law recruitment event and various gatherings at that time.


    His idea was to take this opportunity to obtain a batch of spirit peaches.


    Zhou Feng had participated in many similar events.


    However, he didn¡¯t have much strength before this and could only follow the steps.


    It was different now. If he properly executed his plan, he might be able to make a huge profit.


    ¡®Since you don¡¯t want to cause trouble for me, I¡¯ll come and find trouble for you!¡¯


    If he remembered correctly, one of the two Dragon Transformation cultivators who had chased him back then came from the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    ¡­


    ¡°Do you think that a fairy will stand out in the Peach Blossom Convention?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know about that, but I know that there will definitely be Fairy Dream Butterfly in the end!¡±


    ¡°Fairy Dream Butterfly? Unfortunately, I haven¡¯t seen her face yet. I heard that although she is only 28 years old, her cultivation base is about to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm, and she is so beautiful that she can topple kingdoms and cities!¡±


    ¡°Yeah! Comparing people is so infuriating!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As the Peach Blossom Convention approached, many cultivators began to gather in the Peach Blossom Forest outside Immortal Peach City.


    This Peach Blossom Forest was the venue of this Peach Blossom Convention.


    At that time, a large number of talented and beautiful women would gather there, and even those over the age of 80 would be allowed to enter.


    There was also the requirement for one¡¯s cultivation to reach the Divine Ability realm, directly excluding small fires.


    After all, this Peach Blossom Convention was also taking care of the task of finding a son-in-law.


    As a result, some so-called young talents had already begun to gather here and discuss the various fairies that would participate in the Peach Blossom Convention.


    The most famous one was none other than Fairy Dream Butterfly, the most outstanding young Jade Lake disciple.


    She had reached the bottleneck of the Divine Ability Realm at the age of 16 and had cultivated three divine abilities to the great stage.


    This kind of cultivation speed surpassed countless people, and she could be called a monster.


    Some people even said that if Fairy Dream Butterfly had cultivated in the Central Plains, she might have already broken through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Given her peerless talent, her cultivation would be even more terrifying with sufficient resources.


    With such a monstrous talent in cultivation, coupled with her appearance, she was the kind that could topple kingdoms and cities.


    This would naturally attract countless gazes and become the dream lover of countless young men.


    ¡°If we¡¯re talking about someone who can challenge Fairy Dream Butterfly, it should be two people!¡±


    ¡°It should be one person! The other one¡­¡±


    ¡°The other one is too heroic and valiant! I¡¯m afraid he won¡¯t be able to compete for the Holy Maiden position!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s true! After all, Fairy Dream Butterfly has gained a lot of points from her appearance!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The people present began to talk at length again.


    However, they didn¡¯t know that Zhou Feng, who was far away, had heard everything they said.


    He also started to build a database and analyze all kinds of information.


    ¡®There¡¯s only one Dragon Transformation cultivator presiding over the Peach Appraisal Convention. And all the spirit peaches are with this Dragon Transformation cultivator¡­


    ¡®This is really troublesome. If that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll have to fight this Dragon Transformation cultivator!¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought about it and took out a slightly green spirit peach. He finished it in two bites.


    When the others saw him, they immediately frowned.


    Then, they quickly walked away. Obviously, they didn¡¯t want to have anything to do with Zhou Feng.


    The ones who could enter this place weren¡¯t just gentlemen but very good-looking ones too.


    Only a savage like Zhou Feng, who didn¡¯t care about his appearance, was eating here.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land provided the spirit peach in his hand for free.


    They were considered the worst quality of all the spirit peaches and were specially used to entertain cultivators who came from afar.


    However, most people were extremely reserved, and everyone only took one.


    Also, they tasted it in small mouthfuls, unlike Zhou Feng, who ate one in two mouthfuls.


    Not to mention, he had directly taken a platter of peaches and sat to the side to eat them.


    ¡®Also, why does the Jade Lake Holy Land have to choose cultivators with outstanding looks? There must be another reason¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng ignored the surrounding people¡¯s gazes and thought alone.


    Was appearance really that important for cultivators?


    Strength was the real thing.


    Since the Jade Lake Holy Land could become one of the three holy lands, this matter was definitely not as simple as it looked.


    He did not think so unless being beautiful gave a boost to one¡¯s strength.


    Other than that, he could not understand why the Jade Lake Holy Land would buy so many Youth Retaining Pills every year.

 Chapter 453 - There was Something Wrong with that Person!

    Zhou Feng had been investigating for some time and discovered something very strange about the Jade Lake Holy Land. It placed great importance on appearance, and it was even on the same level as cultivation.


    This was clearly illogical!


    To a cultivator, appearance was just a face, and there were many ways to change it.


    And strength was the foundation of everything. If one had the strength, they could reconstruct their physical body, which was equivalent to the highest level of plastic surgery.


    This kind of body reconstruction didn¡¯t have any side effects and was harmonious.


    However, very few cultivators would do this. Even if they reconstructed their body, it was only for the sake of strength.


    However, the Jade Lake disciples were different.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng guessed that the cultivation technique of the Jade Lake Holy Land was related to appearance. Or perhaps there was a divine ability that had to be performed with the help of appearance.


    ¡®There¡¯s absolutely no mistake!¡¯


    The longer Zhou Feng stayed in the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s territory, the more he felt how the Jade Lake Holy Land could control so many talented itinerant cultivators.


    They could maintain such a huge force by relying on marriage, and they could even command those cultivators who married into the family.


    This was because as long as they were Jade Lake disciples, it was easy for people to have a good impression of them.


    He had only met a few Jade Lake disciples, but he actually had a good impression of them.


    Such a situation was simply baffling.


    Zhou Feng had transmigrated here, so his views were very different from those of the people in this world.


    In addition to other factors, even if a woman were extremely beautiful, he would only have a physical reaction but not the slightest reaction from his divine soul.


    This was the case when he faced Li Rong and Leng Maner previously.


    However, these Jade Lake disciples had actually influenced him.


    There was definitely something wrong with this.


    Moreover, there was evidence that the vagabond cultivators who married into the Jade Lake Holy Land were no different from licking dogs.


    Everything revolved around the wife, and they were even able to give up on cultivation at will.


    This was simply terrifying!


    The abnormal point was that those who had not been forced to do such things were completely willing to do so.


    Zhou Feng was now afraid that he would accidentally fall into a trap and become that kind of person.


    ¡®AI, are all preparations ready?¡¯


    Zhou Feng ignored the onlookers¡¯ gazes and directly emptied a platter of spirit peaches, then stood up.


    He was prepared to take another platter of spirit peaches, but there were still a few plates on the table at the side.


    Since these people were all so reserved, it would be good for him.


    With the support of these spirit peaches, the bone marrow in his right arm was almost fully grown.


    ¡®It¡¯s done!¡¯ the AI replied briefly.


    His dao soldiers were all hidden in specific positions, ready to cause chaos at any time.


    ¡®Then all we have to do now is wait.¡¯


    The initial preparations were done, so he could wait in peace.


    Everyone waited for the Peach Blossom Convention to start.


    Soon, the Dragon Transformation cultivator who had brought a large number of spirit peaches appeared.


    With that, Zhou Feng picked up another platter of spirit peaches.


    The Jade Lake disciples didn¡¯t say anything when they saw this.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were crude, he didn¡¯t violate any rules.


    These spirit peaches were defective. Other than containing some Spiritual Qi, they had almost no other effects.


    Therefore, the Jade Lake Holy Land had no reason to expel Zhou Feng. If it was known that one of the three great holy lands had expelled someone because of some defective spirit peaches, it would be too shameful.


    ¡°Enough! Why did a barbarian who doesn¡¯t know manners sneak in from such an elegant place? It¡¯s simply tarnishing our eyes!¡±


    The Jade Lake disciples were still able to endure for the sake of the Holy Land¡¯s face, but some people couldn¡¯t hold it in anymore. Everyone here was elegant and carefree.


    However, Zhou Feng was tarnishing this poetic place.


    The one who spoke was a man.


    This man¡¯s face was like a crown of jade, his back was upright, and his long robe was as white as snow, spotless.


    He was holding a fan in his hand and looked like a handsome scholar.


    Shen Jing had a disgusted expression on his face. It seemed that he didn¡¯t want to stand in the same space as Zhou Feng.


    Although the people next to him didn¡¯t say anything, they seemed to agree with Shen Jing¡¯s words.


    ¡°Barbarian? Elegant¡±


    When Zhou Feng heard these words, he thought he had misheard.


    The people in front of him were also Divine Ability cultivators. How could they utter such childish words?


    And because of this, they took the initiative to offend another Divine Ability cultivator?


    They must have lost their minds!


    To be honest, this was the first time he had met such a person.


    Every cultivator he had met before, regardless of their cultivation level, was basically very rational.


    There would definitely be a reason if they took the initiative to stir up trouble or target him. For example, he had good things on him, or he was blocking some people¡¯s path.


    Although he had killed these types of people, they at least had a reason.


    Especially after Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation level became higher and higher, even fewer people took the initiative to offend him.


    Yet, this person just couldn¡¯t stand his behavior and directly opened his mouth?


    How did this kind of person survive until now?


    Shen Jing didn¡¯t even seem to notice that the people next to him were all just supporting him on the surface.


    In fact, there wasn¡¯t a single one who voiced their thoughts.


    ¡®There¡¯s a good show to watch!¡¯


    ¡®A fool actually initiated a fight?¡¯


    The moment Shen Jing¡¯s voice resounded in the surroundings, everyone gathered around. Even a few Jade Lake fairies who had just arrived walked over.


    They all wanted to see if they would fight in the end.


    One had to know that the Peach Blossom Convention didn¡¯t forbid people from challenging each other.


    As long as there was a Jade Lake disciple in the vicinity, they could fight on the spot.


    However, they couldn¡¯t destroy anything. Under such conditions, it would be a test of both parties¡¯ control over their strength.


    ¡°What are you looking at? I¡¯m talking about you!¡±


    Shen Jing instantly felt a lot of gazes on him, and a surge of power suddenly emerged from his body.


    The few Jade Lake fairies¡¯ attention was enough to make him continue to blame Zhou Feng.


    ¡°So young? He offended an ignorant cultivator just to show off?¡±


    ¡°Or does this person have a very deep background?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say anything. Instead, he stuffed the spirit peach into his mouth and watched this person¡¯s performance.


    Many people¡¯s eyes revealed a hint of mockery upon seeing this. They wanted to see how Shen Jing would deal with this.


    If this continued, the two of them would probably start fighting.


    This was really too good!


    The past few days had been boring, and it was too tiring to pretend to be your best version every day.


    Now, there was finally some fun.


    ¡°You! Did you hear what I said? You¡¯re actually still eating?¡±


    Shen Jing felt the teasing gazes around him and instantly realized that he had done something stupid.


    However, since things had progressed to this point, it would be too shameful to admit defeat!


    Not to mention that he had wanted to show off in front of a few Jade Lake fairies.


    Therefore, he could only bite the bullet and provoke Zhou Feng.


    At this time, Zhou Feng felt that the surrounding people were anticipating a good show, and he thought, ¡®Showing off might be good. I want to know if the Jade Lake Holy Land will recruit cultivators with my looks!¡¯

 Chapter 454 - Skyrocketing Blood Pressure

    Zhou Feng wanted to test just how important appearance was to the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    As long as he displayed sufficient strength and was a vagabond cultivator without any background, the Jade Lake Holy Land would definitely try to rope him in under normal circumstances.


    This was because the Jade Lake Holy Land had always used this kind of strategy to attract all kinds of vagabond cultivators continuously.


    From the looks of it, those who could marry into the Jade Lake Holy Land didn¡¯t seem to have bad appearances.


    At the very least, there wasn¡¯t anyone who had such a fierce face like Zhou Feng.


    As such, he ignored Shen Jing like before and continued to stuff the spirit peaches into his mouth.


    The sound of chewing the spirit peaches was extremely ear-piercing at this moment.


    And the sound of chewing continuously assaulted Shen Jing¡¯s ears.


    ¡°Damn it! Too arrogant!¡±


    Shen Jing gnashed his teeth, and his voice came from between the gaps of his teeth.


    .


    The situation had progressed to this stage, and both parties had entered a state of hostility.


    At this moment, as long as someone slightly lit a fire, the two of them would very likely start fighting.


    However, no one dared to take the lead.


    They only looked at Shen Jing.


    As for Zhou Feng, many people could already tell that he was much stronger than Shen Jing in terms of state of mind.


    It was better to put the pressure on Shen Jing, who was a little thin-skinned.


    The atmosphere at the scene seemed to freeze for a moment. No one said anything, only staring at Shen Jing.


    This suffocating atmosphere made Shen Jing¡¯s heart beat rapidly, and his palms were sweating profusely.


    ¡°Fairy Dream Butterfly?¡±


    ¡°Fairy Dream Butterfly Is here!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just when Shen Jing felt that he could hardly breathe, Fairy Dream Butterfly arrived.


    The atmosphere immediately eased up.


    ¡®Fairy Dream Butterfly?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attention was also attracted because he was really quite interested in this Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    This was the current strongest young Jade Lake disciple.


    At the age of 16, she had already reached the peak of the Divine Ability realm. This kind of cultivation speed was enough for her to be called a monster.


    Zhou Feng subconsciously took a look, and his mind was directly attracted.


    She was dressed in plain white clothes, without any unnecessary decorations, and even wore a veil.


    Just like that, she felt breathtakingly beautiful.


    That¡¯s right! Breathtakingly beautiful!


    Other than her eyes, there was no other instance of exposed skin.


    She had a charm that made people unable to look directly at her as if just standing there would be a sin.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt intense pain, and then he got rid of this strange state.


    The AI had helped him to snap out of it.


    He had instructed the AI that if he were bewitched or something, it would immediately help him get rid of this state.


    Pain was the fastest way.


    ¡°Hello, everyone!¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly opened her mouth, and her lively and childish voice woke everyone up.


    ¡°Fairy Dream Butterfly! Hello to you too!¡±


    ¡°How are you, Fairy Dream Butterfly?¡±


    ¡°I was rude just now¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After waking up, everyone acted unnaturally as if they were elementary school students meeting a goddess in their hearts.


    The feeling of shyness was really obvious.


    Taking this opportunity, Zhou Feng observed the Jade Lake disciples.


    He found that they were much less affected.


    ¡®This charm doesn¡¯t seem to be intentional.¡¯


    Zhou Feng found that the Fairy Dream Butterfly didn¡¯t deliberately emit her charm. Instead, she tried her best to conceal her charm, which could be seen from the clothes she was wearing.


    She was wearing a simple-looking outfit, without even patterns, and the veil was also a piece of gauze covering almost all of her face.


    Even so, the moment she appeared, so many people fell for her.


    ¡®Special constitution?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know why, but he suddenly thought she had a special constitution.


    Just as he was pondering, a person walked to his side without a care.


    And just like Zhou Feng, she directly picked up a platter of spirit peaches and began to eat them.


    ¡®Eh? A Jade Lake disciple?¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately recognized that the person next to him was a Jade Lake disciple.


    However, this Jade Lake disciple seemed a little different.


    The other Jade Lake disciples all had looks above 90 points, and their temperaments were different.


    However, the person in front of him had a different style.


    She was 1.9 meters tall, half a head taller than him!


    Her skin was wheat-colored, and it seemed like she had been through a lot.


    A valiant aura emanated from between her brows as if he was a female general who had returned from the battlefield. Even though she was wearing battle armor, it could not hide her beautiful figure.


    ¡°Kid! What are you looking at?¡±


    Wu Shuhua glanced over and bit off half of the spirit peach in her hand.


    ¡°Nothing.¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows and swallowed the last spirit peach on the platter.


    ¡®This person seemed to be Wu Shuhua? Isn¡¯t this the person who is on par with Fairy Dream Butterfly?¡¯


    Zhou Feng relied on the AI to guess who this woman was.


    Although Fairy Dream Butterfly was the strongest person in the younger generation of the Jade Lake Holy Land, it wasn¡¯t that there were no contenders. One of the contenders was Wu Shuhua.


    Speaking of which, Wu Shuhua was a rare exception in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Under normal circumstances, some of the famous Jade Lake disciples would address her as a fairy.


    However, Wu Shuhua didn¡¯t have a fairy title. She didn¡¯t even have a proper nickname.


    Others could only call her by her full name.


    After getting used to it, Wu Shuhua didn¡¯t seem to mind others calling her by her whole name, so everyone did that.


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s appearance wasn¡¯t bad either.


    However, her temperament was fierce and domineering. In addition, she was often dressed in battle armor, so there were very few suitors.


    Even if there were suitors, Wu Shuhua would beat them to half a step away from death¡¯s door.


    Wu Shuhua could be considered a legend in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    ¡®Looks like the Peach Blossom Convention is about to begin. Let¡¯s teach that silly fella a lesson first.¡¯


    Since Fairy Dream Butterfly and Wu Shuhua had arrived, the Peach Blossom Convention would commence shortly. Before that, Zhou Feng planned to teach Shen Jing a lesson for provoking him.


    Zhou Feng wanted to test the attitude of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Zhou Feng took another platter of spirit peaches and said in a flat tone, ¡°Hey, your saliva is about to drip down. Let¡¯s settle our personal grudges first.¡±


    His sudden comment instantly pulled everyone¡¯s eyes back.


    ¡°You! What are you talking about? You have a nasty mouth!¡±


    Shen Jing subconsciously touched his mouth and realized that there was no saliva at all. He turned a little angry from embarrassment, especially when Fairy Dream Butterfly looked at Shen Jing curiously.


    This made Shen Jing¡¯s blood pressure soar.


    Actually, other than Shen Jing, when Zhou Feng said that his saliva was about to flow down, many people subconsciously touched their mouths.


    When they finally realized that they had been deceived, their faces immediately revealed traces of embarrassment.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you want to perform in front of the group of fairies? Now I¡¯ll give you this opportunity!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was indifferent.


    Shen Jing¡¯s blood pressure, which had just decreased, began to soar again because of this remark!

 Chapter 455 - Couldn’t Take It Anymore

    Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden words made Shen Jing feel a little embarrassed.


    Moreover, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he couldn¡¯t say that nothing had happened just now.


    As for bowing to Zhou Feng? That was even more impossible, especially with Fairy Dream Butterfly here. Such a shameful thing could never be done.


    ¡°Hmph! Don¡¯t change the topic. What performance? I¡¯m just saying that a person like you doesn¡¯t deserve to stay here!¡±


    Shen Jing gnashed his teeth and defined Zhou Feng as a person.


    The reason he said this was to make Fairy Dream Butterfly think that Zhou Feng had done something bad previously.


    As for him, he was on the side of justice. He really couldn¡¯t stand it, so he stood up and angrily rebuked Zhou Feng.


    Shen Jing didn¡¯t know what other people thought, but that was what he was thinking.


    With that thought, he slowly felt at ease.


    That¡¯s right! It was just like that!


    ¡®Hurry up and fight! Why aren¡¯t you fighting yet!?¡¯


    ¡®Although this person looks unbearably vulgar, he shouldn¡¯t be weak. From the very beginning, he looked so calm and composed! Ordinary people really can¡¯t do it!¡¯


    ¡®This is going to be a good show. This fool will definitely want to show himself in front of Fairy Dream Butterfly.¡¯


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The onlookers didn¡¯t stand out to refute Shen Jing. They were all waiting for a good show and absolutely wouldn¡¯t offend anyone.


    Most people were very clear-headed. They had come here to participate in the Peach Blossom Convention and casually make friends.


    They didn¡¯t come here to offend others. Every Divine Ability cultivator definitely had their own outstanding points.


    Casually offending a cultivator wasn¡¯t a wise move, especially when an anomaly like Zhou Feng had appeared not long ago. He was a vagabond cultivator, but his strength was astonishing.


    Some people used their status as disciples of the holy land to oppress others, but they all suffered the consequences in the end. With this precedent, everyone was very cautious now.


    ¡°We should be able to fight here, right?¡±


    Zhou Feng was too lazy to argue.


    The moment he opened his mouth, Wu Shuhua immediately responded, ¡°Of course! But you can¡¯t damage anything in the surroundings. Otherwise, you¡¯ll need to pay ten times the compensation!¡±


    There was even a hint of excitement on her face.


    Zhou Feng continued stuffing spirit peaches into his mouth as he said to Shen Jing, ¡°Then let¡¯s begin?¡±


    ¡°I can¡¯t believe it! Of course we have to go through this!¡±


    Shen Jing did not show any signs of timidity. He withdrew the fan in his hand and took two steps forward.


    These two steps were also very graceful. The aura that belonged solely to the Divine Ability realm slowly spread out.


    It was very obvious that although Shen Jing was a little young, he still had the strength.


    ¡°Wait? Your hand¡­ is injured?¡±


    Wu Shuhua suddenly saw Zhou Feng¡¯s right arm drooping.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care at all. He even shook his right arm.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing, just a small injury.¡±


    His right arm was like a soft noodle, swinging in the air.


    Although the flesh and bones of his right arm had almost grown out, it was not as strong as the left arm due to the lack of resources. Thus, Zhou Feng was handicapped.


    No one had noticed that something was wrong before, but Wu Shuhua had seen through it with one look.


    It was also because of this reason that Zhou Feng looked at Wu Shuhua in surprise.


    At that moment, the others also noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s situation.


    ¡°Hmph! How could this be? Am I not taking advantage of him? Forget it! I¡¯ll be more magnanimous!¡±


    Shen Jing snorted coldly. It seemed like he did not want to take advantage of others. After all, one had to put on an act before Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    Even though he was exhilarated and even wanted to take this opportunity to fight Zhou Feng, he could not reveal his thoughts.


    ¡°How did you survive until now? By taking advantage of others?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that the person in front of him was a pig.


    Although he knew that Shen Jing was probably pretending, he had to teach a good lesson to such a person.


    Had it not been for the skill panel, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t be where he was..


    Still, there was one thing he was best at, and that was to be ruthless!


    If he was not ruthless enough, he might not have managed to crawl out of the Tri-Gu Sect. Instead, he would have become the Flesh Gu¡¯s fodder.


    It was precisely because of this experience that he was extremely disgusted by Shen Jing¡¯s pretentious appearance.


    ¡°Hmph! You¡ª¡±


    Facing his questioning, Shen Jing wanted to continue putting on airs and debate with Zhou Feng.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng could not take it anymore.


    Zhou Feng could not use the Great Void Primordial Qi to prevent his identity from being exposed, so he only used pure Blood Qi.


    And it was the most ordinary Blood Qi, not the golden Blood Qi.


    The terrifying Blood Qi condensed into a dragon and flew out of Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    This vast Blood Qi dragon was like a dark cloud.


    Shen Jing did not expect Zhou Feng to make a move suddenly.


    One had to maintain their image in front of so many fairies, especially in front of Fairy Dream Butterfly. What if they could gain Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s favor?


    Even if the chance was very slim, there was still hope.


    Therefore, Shen Jing did not resist at all. He was directly crushed by the terrifying power of the crimson dragon.


    ¡°Come here!¡±


    Zhou Feng controlled his Blood Qi perfectly with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    The crimson dragon turned into a giant claw and pulled Shen Jing¡¯s body in front of him.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Shen Jing was furious! He had actually made such a fool of himself in front of so many people to use his innate divine ability to turn the tables.


    Clang! Clang! Clang!


    A sword hymn rang in the sky.


    But just as the momentum rose, Shen Jing¡¯s body was crushed.


    His limbs and bones were cracking.


    ¡°Aaah!¡±


    The intense pain caused Shen Jing to shout.


    ¡°It¡¯s about time! Esteemed guest!¡±


    A Jade Lake disciple frowned and wanted to stop Zhou Feng.


    If this continued, Shen Jing would die here. At that time, it would be a big blow to the reputation of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t intend to let Shen Jing go.


    ¡°You actually ambushed me!¡±


    Shen Jing didn¡¯t seem to know what was going on. Surprisingly, he was claiming that Zhou Feng had ambushed him.


    From his tone, it seemed like he was saying that if Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t ambushed him, it would be hard to say who would win.


    ¡°That Blood Qi¡­ is too strong!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s his background? What kind of cultivation technique does this person cultivate?¡±


    ¡°Is there a sect that specializes in the power of Blood Qi?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Most of the onlookers were shocked by Zhou Feng¡¯s move.


    Zhou Feng had used the power of his potent Blood Qi to deal with his opponent and didn¡¯t use any divine abilities from the beginning to the end.


    Just how powerful must he be to use the power of Blood Qi to crush the opponent?


    Only Shen Jing did not understand the situation clearly, and he was still calling foul play.


    Suppose Zhou Feng had used a sneak attack, just like Shen Jing claimed. Given the speed of said sneak attack, not many of the onlookers would be able to withstand it if they were not prepared.


    What if Zhou Feng used a divine ability instead?


    Thinking about it carefully, many people looked at Zhou Feng with fear.

 Chapter 456 - The Possibility of Secretly Learning a Cultivation Technique

    ¡°Esteemed guest!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng still hadn¡¯t let go of Shen Jing, Fairy Dream Butterfly also opened her mouth slightly.


    That calm voice was like a cold spring as if it could dissipate anyone¡¯s anger.


    Although Fairy Dream Butterfly didn¡¯t continue speaking, the meaning was already very obvious. She hoped that Zhou Feng would let it go.


    After all, this was still the territory of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng had the urge to let it go.


    He still had to participate in the Peach Blossom Convention, and he wouldn¡¯t manage to do that if he killed him now.


    ¡®That¡¯s not right!¡¯


    However, just as this thought arose, Zhou Feng suppressed it.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on? That voice¡­¡¯


    .


    He was not the type to do whatever others said. Yet, he subconsciously followed Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s instructions upon hearing her voice.


    ¡®How strange¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face remained calm.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    It was also at this time that Shen Jing started to be afraid.


    This madman in front of him really wanted to kill him.


    He didn¡¯t even give face to Fairy Dream Butterfly. If this wasn¡¯t a madman, then what was?


    Originally, everyone thought that if Fairy Dream Butterfly spoke, Zhou Feng would give some face no matter what.


    After all, that was Fairy Dream Butterfly!


    She was the strongest expert of the younger generation of the Jade Lake Holy Land. Even if she wore a veil, her beauty could suffocate others.


    However, Zhou Feng did not give her any face and continued to do as he pleased.


    Fairy Dream Butterfly frowned slightly but did not speak again.


    The scene froze just like that.


    Shen Jing¡¯s voice also became weaker and weaker. Toward the end, he was only breathing in more air and breathing out less.


    Wu Shuhua could feel that Shen Jing¡¯s life force had been weakened to the extreme.


    ¡°Brat, enough. If you want to fight, I¡¯ll accompany you!¡±


    Blood Qi that was similar to that of a savage dragon gushed out.


    Her Blood Qi was even more powerful than Zhou Feng¡¯s. A Blood Qi dragon that was as thick as a mountain rushed out of Wu Shuhua¡¯s head.


    That majestic aura made it difficult for people to breathe.


    Moreover, it was accompanied by a kind of killing intent. That dense killing intent made it seem as if an ancient battlefield was slowly emerging.


    ¡®This Blood Qi¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was also shocked because the amount of Blood Qi was even greater than his.


    Ever since he obtained the passive Second Heart, his Blood Qi had soared to a terrifying level.


    Basically, the Blood Qi of everyone he met was not as strong as his.


    However, he had met his match today.


    ¡®There¡¯s such an aura¡­ Is it the Emperor Coiling Scripture?¡¯


    Zhou Feng let go of Shen Jing and turned to look at Wu Shuhua. He could faintly sense the aura of the Emperor Coiling Scripture from the huge amount of Blood Qi.


    However, there were very few traces of the Emperor Coiling Scripture. Wu Shuhua¡¯s cultivation technique should have been based on the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    ¡°How is it? Are you interested? After all, cultivators who refine the physical body are rare!¡±


    Wu Shuhua saw Zhou Feng looking at her.


    A forthright air immediately seeped out.


    As expected, Wu Shuhua was an oddity in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Compared to those unified fairies, Wu Shuhua was like a big sister.


    ¡°We¡¯ll talk about it later!¡±


    Zhou Feng finished all the spirit peaches on the platter, then took another platter and casually found a place to sit down.


    His casual attitude made people admire him.


    This guy was really bold!


    He almost offended the Jade Lake Holy Land just now, but he could still act so casually.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land didn¡¯t care whether Shen Jing died or not, but if Zhou Feng dared to kill Shen Jing here¡­


    Then he wouldn¡¯t give the Jade Lake Holy Land any face.


    ¡°Okay! We¡¯ll talk about it later!¡±


    Wu Shuhua also agreed.


    Then, as if nothing had happened, Fairy Dream Butterfly and the other Jade Lake disciples left one after another.


    They began to prepare for the Peach Blossom Convention.


    Of course, they would definitely investigate Zhou Feng in the dark.


    It was a huge mistake that no one knew such a person.


    There weren¡¯t many sects that specialized in cultivating Blood Qi and physical bodies.


    Even if there were, it was impossible for them to cultivate to such a level.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng was most likely a vagabond cultivator from the deep mountains and wild forests.


    Moreover, he was extremely talented.


    Although his appearance was somewhat unsightly, this matter was simple.


    Other than the Youth Retaining Pill, there was also the Beauty Pill.


    The Beauty Pill was a pill that could slowly change one¡¯s appearance, and there were no side effects. The process of changing one¡¯s appearance was slow, causing one to become a handsome man or beautiful woman unknowingly.


    It was as if this was what they originally looked like.


    It was precisely because of the existence of this type of pill that there were no ugly people in the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Even the outer disciples were all extremely beautiful.


    Wu Shuhua and the others left.


    The atmosphere could not return to how it was before.


    Everyone present had started to whisper softly.


    There were even quite a number of people who frequently looked in Zhou Feng¡¯s direction.


    The crowd knew that Zhou Feng was not someone to be trifled with since he had taught Shen Jing such a ruthless lesson.


    Thus, no one came to find trouble with him.


    As for the Jade Lake Holy Land, they wouldn¡¯t find trouble with him either.


    Instead, they were actively investigating Zhou Feng.


    If he really was a vagabond cultivator, then they had to rope him in.


    Some Jade Lake disciples even brought up several platters of spirit peaches.


    Almost nothing had changed, and only Shen Jing was injured.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s act of establishing his authority was surprisingly effective.


    ¡®That¡¯s why there are so few idiots in this world. No one will rashly offend an expert as long as you display your strength!¡¯


    Zhou Feng quickly forgot this small interlude.


    He was now thinking about the possibility of secretly learning other people¡¯s cultivation techniques.


    With the support of the AI¡¯s database, would he be able to learn other people¡¯s cultivation techniques during battle secretly?


    He had this idea because the people of this world were really good at keeping cultivation techniques confidential.


    If he could continuously collect the enemy¡¯s data during battle, he could deduce a part of the opponent¡¯s cultivation technique. That would be great too.


    He did not need a complete cultivation technique, just 50-60%.


    In that way, he could use them as a source of information for the AI¡¯s database.


    Zhou Feng had to create his own cultivation technique, so the more reference material there was, the better.


    If this idea was successful, wouldn¡¯t it mean that he would be able to fill in the database every time he fought with an enemy?


    ¡®Especially the cultivation technique of the physical body!¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly thought of Wu Shuhua. That majestic and terrifying Blood Qi was really enviable.


    If he had that much Blood Qi as well, his plan to reconstruct his physical body would be much smoother.


    ¡®Forget it! The most important thing now is to obtain the resources to reconstruct my physical body. I¡¯ll slowly consider these matters later.¡¯


    He closed his eyes and began to sense the dao soldier¡¯s location.

 Chapter 457 - The Strange Jade Lake Holy Land

    A large number of foreign cultivators had gathered in Immortal Peach City for the Peach Blossom Convention.


    Therefore, in order to ensure safety, the Jade Lake Holy Land would transfer disciples from nearby branches to enhance security.


    In theory, at this time, the security force of each spirit peach orchard was also the weakest.


    This was also a good opportunity for Zhou Feng to make his move.


    Although most of the spirit peaches were not ripe yet, they already contained a large amount of Spiritual Qi.


    After all, spirit peaches were different from ordinary peaches.


    Once the spirit trees bore fruit, they would not fall from the tree. They would only slowly accumulate Spiritual Qi.


    They would wait until they reached their limit. Meanwhile, the Jade Lake Holy Land people judged that the spirit peaches had already reached their limit.


    At this time, it would be judged to be ripe and could be plucked.


    As such, in theory, there were many spirit peaches hanging on the spirit peach Tree.


    ¡®The dao soldiers don¡¯t have any aura. It¡¯s indeed convenient to hide!¡¯


    Zhou Feng could already sense that his dao soldiers were gathered outside the formation.


    The next step was to find a place to dig a hole and bypass the formation protecting the peach orchard through the underground.


    After all, there were too many peach orchards here. It was impossible to set up such a huge formation.


    Almost all of them were warning formations that notified the patrol teams.


    In the beginning, many cultivators would sneak into the peach orchard to steal spirit peaches.


    However, the Jade Lake Holy Land would discover them every time, and not a single one survived.


    Therefore, the number of cultivators who stole was reduced.


    The outside world guessed that there was something inside the peach orchard. Once touched, it was equivalent to being marked.


    The people who stole the spirit peaches were not spared.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s AI had gathered this information.


    Coincidentally, his dao soldiers seemed to be born for stealing. They did not have the aura of a living person and could even be controlled from a very long distance for a short period.


    Once they succeeded, they would self-destruct. It was impossible to leave behind any traces.


    Thus, Zhou Feng had the idea of stealing the spirit peaches.


    Now, it seemed that everything was going smoothly.


    The formations outside the spirit peach orchards did not discover the existence of dao soldiers at all.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng¡¯s dao soldiers relied on their hands to dig holes bit by bit, entering the peach orchard from an unexpected location.


    ¡®Am I recreating the splendor of the Starseizer Sect?¡¯


    From a certain point of view, Zhou Feng could be considered to have inherited the legacy of the Starseizer Sect, the number one thief sect.


    However, this was only the appetizer. His real targets were the mature spirit peaches on the body of the Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    ¡°It¡¯s starting! The Peach Blossom Convention has begun!¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    ¡°Hurry up! Choose a good seat!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After an unknown amount of time, the Peach Blossom Convention finally began.


    The place where Zhou Feng was at could be considered a resting place. The Peach Blossom Convention was held in another location.


    After a short while, he arrived at a location that was sealed by a large formation.


    ¡®It¡¯s safe!¡¯


    Zhou Feng used Hexadirectional Calculation and found that there was no danger. Thus, he stepped into the great formation without hesitation.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what kind of formation this was, but he felt a trace of restraint all over his body as soon as he entered.


    The Jade Lake disciples were fully armed with spiritual weapons and standing at the edge of the formation.


    There were cushions and low tables at the center. It looked a little simple and crude, but no one disliked it.


    ¡®There¡¯s an arena? What¡¯s that?¡¯


    Everything in front of him was extremely new to Zhou Feng. After all, he had never participated in such an event before.


    Moreover, there weren¡¯t any fixed seats. What one wanted to do depended entirely on the person.


    In general, it was quite casual.


    Zhou Feng had come relatively slowly, so the front row was already full of people.


    The people who came later could only sit at the back.


    The people present didn¡¯t seem to have any thoughts of snatching a seat. Perhaps they were worried about the opinions of those fairies?


    In any case, in Zhou Feng¡¯s view, everyone present was polite and courteous.


    This was really a bit strange. After all, in the cultivation world, strength prevailed.


    The strong cultivators naturally looked down on the weak.


    ¡®What¡¯s the reason? Could it be that the Jade Lake fairies have such great charm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought as he walked forward.


    ¡°Look!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s that person! What does he want to do?¡±


    ¡°Could it be¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The front was already full, but Zhou Feng continued to walk forward.


    This immediately attracted the attention of many people, especially those who had witnessed Zhou Feng¡¯s fight. They immediately realized that something was wrong.


    Zhou Feng walked straight to the seat closest to the booth.


    ¡°Can you move aside? I want to sit here!¡±


    His calm words caused a hint of astonishment to appear on the faces of the people sitting there.


    That expression seemed to say: ¡®Are you kidding me?¡¯?


    Seeing that the person in front of him didn¡¯t intend to move, Zhou Feng¡¯s blood surged.


    He forcefully took this seat by sending the one sitting there flying.


    ¡°How arrogant!¡±


    ¡°Who is this? Is he here to cause trouble?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    This rude action shocked everyone present.


    Even the Jade Lake disciples were shocked.


    Everyone wondered whether this person was here to cause trouble. Did he not know what this place was?


    ¡®Oh? He succeeded?¡¯


    After doing all this, Zhou Feng suddenly received a message.


    A dao soldier had successfully stolen the spirit peaches and left the formation, heading to another peach orchard.


    At that moment, his dao soldiers were continuously picking the spirit peaches in several peach orchards and putting them into his storage ring.


    Regardless of whether the spirit peaches were big or small, the dao soldiers would pick them all. They pulled the peach branches and stuffed them all into their storage rings.


    Moreover, their actions were lightning-fast because Zhou Feng was afraid the patrol teams would discover them.


    ¡®It¡¯s actually so smooth!¡¯


    Perhaps it was because it had been a long time since someone had stolen spirit peaches that the Jade Lake disciples were not as vigilant as he had imagined.


    ¡°Esteemed guest! What are you doing?¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng had not only stolen someone else¡¯s seat but he had also sat down as if nothing had happened, the Jade Lake Holy disciples immediately frowned and chose to berate him.


    The person who had been sent flying also glared at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°No, no, no!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that something was wrong when they berated him.


    Zhou Feng felt that he had done something wrong. He should follow this unspoken rule.


    He should be polite and create a beautiful and harmonious atmosphere.


    At that moment, he even wondered if he had water in his head.


    He had come here to cause mayhem!


    His enmity with the three holy lands was irreconcilable. The two Dragon Transformation Elders would have killed him if it were not for his strength.


    Under such circumstances, how could he have the thought of abiding by the rules here!?


    ¡°Esteemed guest!?¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any reaction, the Jade Lake disciple immediately increased the volume of his voice.


    ¡°If you want to fight, just fight!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes suddenly became fierce.


    The Jade Lake disciple choked as if he didn¡¯t expect him to be so fierce.


    ¡°He¡¯s really here to pick a fight!¡±


    ¡°Damn! Is he really a madman!?¡±

 Chapter 458 - Unearthing a Secret

    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions at this moment looked like he was deliberately looking for trouble.


    Therefore, many people thought that he had gone mad.


    This was the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    Not far away was Immortal Peach City, where powerful Dragon Transformation figures were stationed.


    Going mad here was no different from seeking death.


    ¡°Esteemed guest!¡±


    At that moment, Fairy Dream Butterfly, who was in a high position, had no choice but to step forward.


    Fairy Dream Butterfly had the highest status among all the people present, meaning she was the most qualified to step forward and speak.


    As the Peach Blossom Convention was approaching, it was naturally the best if it could be held with no commotion.


    However, if someone deliberately caused trouble, the Jade Lake Holy Land would not show mercy.


    The tightly wrapped Fairy Dream Butterfly slowly walked up to Zhou Feng. Her every action made people unable to help but be immersed in her movements.


    They were ordinary actions, yet they turned into extremely beautiful scenery in everyone¡¯s eyes.


    Zhou Feng was the closest, so he was affected the most.


    A voice in his heart continuously urged him to listen to the woman in front of him.


    ¡°Please follow the order, okay?¡±


    A fragrant wind blew.


    It was a faint orchid fragrance. It was not strong, but it was refreshing.


    ¡°Good¡­ my *ss! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes blurred for a second, and the next second, they became sharp again.


    As expected! There was definitely something wrong with the Jade Lake Holy Land cultivation technique.


    He had fallen into a daze, and he didn¡¯t even notice what Fairy Dream Butterfly had done.


    This kind of seduction ability was extremely natural. There was no flaw at all as if it was supposed to be like this.


    Thankfully, the AI¡¯s reminder snapped him out of his trance.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s violent Blood Qi surged while his accumulated killing intent erupted.


    ¡°Madman! Madman! He actually dared to make a move! And it¡¯s against Fairy Dream Butterfly!?¡±


    ¡°Quickly! Stop this madman!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When the surrounding people saw that Zhou Feng actually dared to make a move, they were scared silly!


    Was he crazy?


    He actually dared to make a move against Fairy Dream Butterfly at the Peach Blossom Convention?


    At that moment, countless people wanted to point at Zhou Feng¡¯s head and ask, ¡°Is your brain filled with sh*t!?¡±


    To think he would do such a thing in this kind of situation!


    Boom!


    Zhou Feng threw a punch filled with surging Blood Qi.


    This punch seemed to tear through space.


    The moment Fairy Dream Butterfly was hit, her entire body turned into countless butterflies.


    The ethereal Fairy Dream Butterfly was still as beautiful and magnificent as before, attracting everyone¡¯s attention.


    ¡°How dare you!?¡± A dignified voice came from the sky.


    A huge green lotus grew out of the sky.


    This green lotus emitted terrifying fluctuations, like the stars in the sky. It wanted to suppress Zhou Feng here.


    ¡°Elder Yu! It¡¯s Elder Yu!¡±


    ¡°Haha! Elder Yu is here! This madman is dead for sure!¡±


    ¡°In this way, the Peach Blossom Convention shouldn¡¯t be delayed!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Someone recognized the figure in the air.


    This was Elder Yu of the Jade Lake Holy Land and also the oldest Jade Lake Elder.


    Zhou Feng raised his head to take a look.


    He saw a beautiful woman who still retained her charm looking at him with an icy expression.


    Although her skin was still as tender as an eggshell, and she looked like a young girl in her 20s, Zhou Feng could feel the twilight aura.


    ¡®The twilight aura of a dying tree¡­ Is this a Dragon Transformation cultivator who is about to die?¡¯


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had seen a Dragon Transformation cultivator on the verge of death.


    The auras of the Dragon Transformation cultivators he had met before were all like the blazing sun in the afternoon, without the slightest hint of twilight aura.


    However, the beautiful woman had a face full of decay. Even her beautiful appearance could not be maintained.


    ¡®Starseizer Steps!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was indifferent as starlight accompanied his feet.


    In an instant, he escaped from the huge green lotus¡¯ range.


    Because he deliberately concealed it, no one noticed the starlight under Zhou Feng¡¯s feet.


    What was even more surprising was that there was not the slightest bit of worry on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    One had to know that the person in front of him was a Dragon Transformation expert.


    A Divine Ability cultivator wanted to face such a mighty figure? He was courting death!


    However, not only did Zhou Feng not show the slightest bit of panic, but he seemed to have already expected it.


    ¡®Could it be that all of his actions just now were intentional!?¡¯


    With this thought in mind, many people sucked in a breath of cold air in their hearts.


    Deliberately finding trouble, didn¡¯t this mean that this person had a way to fight against a Dragon Transformation expert?


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    Elder Yu was also a little surprised. She should have crushed an ant like this to death. How did he escape?


    Zhou Feng suddenly spoke. ¡°I wasn¡¯t sure at first, but I confirmed it now. So, this is the secret of the Jade Lake Holy Land!¡±


    ¡°The secret of the Jade Lake Holy Land?¡±


    ¡°What secret?¡±


    ¡°F*ck! This looks like he¡¯s here to seek revenge! An enemy of the Jade Lake Holy Land?¡±


    ¡°An enemy? No wonder!¡±


    Some people¡¯s ears immediately perked up.


    It sounded like Zhou Feng had a grudge against the Jade Lake Holy Land, and he had come here to seek revenge.


    There was also the so-called secret of the Jade Lake Holy Land. Everyone present was extremely curious about this.


    What secret did the Jade Lake Holy Land have?


    ¡°You¡¯re the remnant of those people! You¡¯re not dead yet!¡±


    Originally, this was just a casual trick, but who would have thought that this beautiful woman¡¯s expression would suddenly change?


    Her face revealed a trace of determined killing intent as if she wanted to keep Zhou Feng here forever.


    ¡®No way! Did I really guess it right? Remnant? What kind of remnant?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was expressionless, but he was also a little surprised in his heart. He didn¡¯t expect that a casual trick would actually have a result.


    Ever since he came to the Jade Lake Holy Land, he had been feeling that something was wrong.


    The cultivators in the Jade Lake Holy Land seemed to have become extremely obedient.


    Moreover, all of them were handsome men and beautiful women. This kind of feeling was like coming to a dream country.


    This dream country didn¡¯t have any evil, nor did it have any oppression. It was just an ideal country where everyone was like a dragon.


    However, it was clear that this was completely incompatible with this world.


    This was the world of cultivators, where the weak were prey to the strong. They would do anything for cultivation resources. This was the world.


    However, the Jade Lake Holy Land was different.


    There was also the fact that the Jade Lake fairies seemed to have the ability to make people feel good about them.


    Many cultivators would be convinced and turn into dogs with just a few words.


    This was bizarre.


    That was why Zhou Feng had said that he unearthed the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s secret.


    But in reality, he hadn¡¯t found any secret. He had come here just to gather enough resources to rebuild his body.


    ¡°Great formation! Rise!¡±


    Elder Yu seemed to be afraid that Zhou Feng would say something he shouldn¡¯t, so she controlled the great formation to kill him here.


    The surrounding Jade Lake disciples also took positions one after another.


    One by one, stars appeared and burst out with resplendent light.


    Each star contained vast Spiritual Qi, and they madly descended, intending to kill Zhou Feng.


    Even the other cultivators nearby weren¡¯t spared.


    That sentence about the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s secret had touched Elder Yu¡¯s reverse scale.

 Chapter 459 - Retractable Spear

    The stars that shone in the sky each carried an ancient aura.


    They suppressed everyone present, and Zhou Feng was the target.


    Zhou Feng felt unprecedented pressure and was momentarily besieged.


    ¡°Why do you think I said that?¡±


    Still, Zhou Feng maintained his previous calmness, even showing a nonchalant expression.


    At the same time, he made a dao soldier in the distant peach orchard self-destruct.


    The detonation made some noise.


    Since Zhou Feng managed to bluff out a secret, he might as well continue acting.


    The Jade Lake people mistakenly thought that Zhou Feng was a remnant of an enemy.


    Thus, he followed this train of thought and let the Jade Lake people continue to misunderstand.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I¡¯m a remnant, but I¡¯m not the one looking for trouble. Instead, I came with a group of people!¡±


    Coincidentally, the dao soldiers would be able to play along with him.


    Boom!


    The loud explosion of another dao soldier reached their ears.


    ¡°Not good! It¡¯s coming from the peach orchards!¡±


    ¡°This person is a death warrior! Their target is the peach orchards!¡±


    ¡°No! Their target may even be Immortal Peach City!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After hearing the commotion, Elder Yu¡¯s expression changed once again, as if she had recalled some bad memories.


    She immediately ignored the other innocent people and wanted to crush Zhou Feng to death in an instant.


    ¡°Bye bye~¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately stopped concealing his identity. Great Void Primordial Qi wrapped around his entire body as he unleashed the full power of the Starseizer Steps.


    In an instant, he broke free from the seal of the formation.


    If it was a top-tier formation like the one in Immortal Peach City, he might not have been able to escape.


    But a simple formation set up in the wild could not trap him.


    ¡°Stepping on starlight! It¡¯s him! Zhou Feng! So he is one of those survivors!¡±


    The Jade Lake people instantly recognized Zhou Feng because of his characteristic starlight under his feet and the armor formed by Great Void Primordial Qi.


    It was this person who caused the three holy lands to suffer a huge blow in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    In the end, they had sent out two Dragon Transformation Elders, but they were unable to kill him.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    ¡°No! This has nothing to do with us!¡±


    ¡°Quickly! Dodge!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was completely fine as he ran away, but the cultivators who were affected by the impact were not so lucky.


    Elder Yu¡¯s attack was aimed at killing Zhou Feng.


    The huge stars smashed down, and even though everyone present was a Divine Ability cultivator, some of them weren¡¯t able to dodge in time and suffered heavy injuries.


    They didn¡¯t understand why the expressions of the Jade Lake disciples suddenly changed.


    The atmosphere that the Jade Lake fairies had created earlier was instantly destroyed. This sort of thing wasn¡¯t a small blow to the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    ¡°Damn it! Quickly! Quickly go and check on the peach orchards!¡±


    Elder Yu couldn¡¯t care about anything else. She could no longer put on a dignified appearance.


    She immediately began to give orders. She absolutely couldn¡¯t let those remnants succeed.


    As one of the oldest Elders, Elder Yu knew many secrets.


    One of them was about the Holy Lord competition of the Jade Lake Holy Land. The internal strife had almost caused the entire Jade Lake Holy Land to disappear back then.


    Now, those remnants had actually reappeared and even dared to take the initiative to provoke them?


    They had definitely accumulated enough strength and were now back to look for trouble.


    Elder Yu¡¯s thoughts started to run wild at this moment because she had experienced it before.


    However, there was one thing that she had to do. She absolutely couldn¡¯t allow these remnants to destroy the peach orchards.


    These vast peach orchards were one of the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s foundations.


    The long-awaited Peach Blossom Convention was canceled.


    Moreover, nobody was allowed to leave. They had to wait until their identities were ascertained before they could leave on their own.


    Most of the Jade Lake disciples present were dispatched to the peach orchards, preparing to capture those remnants.


    This kind of turn of events was something that the cultivators had never expected.


    However, just as everyone was still in shock, Zhou Feng swaggered back.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng immediately launched a counterattack!


    After Elder Yu and the Jade Lake disciples left this place, he immediately returned.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    As soon as he appeared, the void longbow in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand began to shoot wildly.


    The remaining Jade Lake disciples instantly felt the fear of those people in the Cold Wind mountain range.


    No matter how they tried to dodge and defend themselves, the arrows would hit them from a very tricky angle.


    Then, the Great Void Primordial Qi¡¯s destructive power would wear away all the power in their bodies.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s hands had completely grown back, they were still a little weak. After all, they had just grown back and had not been trained for a long time.


    Even so, dealing with a Divine Ability cultivator was like slaughtering a chicken or slaughtering a sheep with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    As long as there was no way to avoid Zhou Feng¡¯s attack, then there would only be one outcome¡ªdeath!


    Divine ability? Sorry! These people didn¡¯t even have the chance to use their divine abilities.


    Before Zhou Feng was exposed, the AI had already quietly collected the basic information of everyone present.


    With this basic information and Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s divinations, Zhou Feng was invincible at this time!


    After holding back for so long, he was finally able to carry out a crushing battle.


    Three minutes later¡­


    The scene suddenly quieted down.


    Other than the corpses, there were only cultivators in the middle.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng didn¡¯t kill everyone.


    Instead, he specifically chose the Jade Lake disciples. As for those who weren¡¯t from the Jade Lake Holy Land, he spared them.


    He had formed a grudge with the holy lands, and they were his only target of revenge.


    In fact, he was a person who was very particular about principles.


    The longbow in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand slowly dissipated as if he had done a small thing. He calmly said, ¡°Hand over all the storage rings to me! Then you can leave!¡±


    After hesitating for a few seconds, someone couldn¡¯t withstand the pressure and took out his storage ring.


    Although the losses were extremely heavy, it was already very good to be able to keep their lives.


    Since these people had managed to cultivate to the Divine Ability realm, they were reconciled with this kind of treatment.


    Not only did they not show resentment on their faces, but they also showed gratitude.


    Of course, only they knew in their hearts whether these feelings were real or fake.


    In any case, in this situation, they had to show their gratitude and thank Zhou Feng for sparing their lives.


    Moreover, they were the ones who handed over the storage rings.


    There was no coercion! There was no threat! This was a resource!


    This had to be highlighted.


    ¡®This is a big win!


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what these people were thinking, but he knew that he had definitely made a huge profit this time.


    These people had come to attend the Peach Blossom Convention and buy spirit peaches from the Jade Lake Holy Land. Naturally, they had brought numerous resources and Spirit Stones.


    Originally, these people had been under the impression that they were extremely safe.


    After all, who would dare to behave atrociously in the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s territory?


    Although the reputation of the three holy lands wasn¡¯t very good, everyone¡¯s safety was absolutely guaranteed.


    These people had brought almost all of their wealth here precisely because of this.


    This directly benefited Zhou Feng.

 Chapter 460 - Revisiting the Demonic Path?

    ¡°Where is he? Where is he!?¡±


    When Elder Yu rushed to the peach orchard where the explosion occurred, she did not feel any aura at all.


    Moreover, the situation in the peach orchard was different from what she had expected.


    Although many of the spirit peach trees were severely damaged, most of the spirit peach trees were intact.


    At most, some peach branches and unripe spirit peaches had been destroyed.


    The expected wilting did not occur.


    There was also the Spirit Vein underground that was not disturbed. Everything was operating normally.


    ¡°Impossible! Those remnants could not have attacked so lightly!¡±


    As Elder Yu thought about it, a bad feeling suddenly rose in her heart.


    Could it be that she had been deceived!


    .


    From the beginning to the end, Zhou Feng had not displayed the unique divine ability of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Instead, he displayed another divine ability.


    The more Elder Yu thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She seemed to have scared herself!


    Hadn¡¯t those remnants been completely wiped out a long time ago? Why would they suddenly appear and even have the guts to come back for revenge?


    After losing the huge resources of the Jade Lake Holy Land, even if those remnants wanted to cultivate to the Divine Ability realm, it would still be a difficult matter.


    It was impossible for them to have the courage to come back and take revenge.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    The more Elder Yu thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She had actually become a frightened bird and believed whatever Zhou Feng said.


    In reality, she was the one who had frightened herself. She could only blame herself for causing too much of a ruckus back then.


    It made Elder Yu¡¯s heart palpitate with fear.


    For a moment, her face was as if it was on fire.


    ¡®Zhou Feng must die! Only blood can wash away this humiliation!¡¯


    Unfortunately, this thief¡¯s concealment skills were simply top-notch. The best opportunity had already been missed.


    ¡°I hope it won¡¯t affect the Peach Blossom Convention!¡±


    The uneasiness in Elder Yu¡¯s heart began to spread.


    Although the remnants of the past had not returned, the uneasiness in her heart didn¡¯t dissipate for some reason.


    Could it be that an accident would prevent the Peach Blossom Convention from continuing?


    To be honest, this Peach Blossom Convention was a very important resource exchange convention for the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Although spirit peaches were good, not all of them brought benefits.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land was one of the three holy lands, and the entire sect had countless disciples.


    These disciples needed numerous cultivation resources to cultivate.


    Therefore, the Jade Lake Holy Land valued exchanging spirit peaches for different types of cultivation resources.


    Otherwise, they wouldn¡¯t have sent a Dragon Transformation Elder to preside over it.


    The combat strength of a Dragon Transformation expert was very precious.


    ¡°There shouldn¡¯t be any accidents! That thief should have escaped to a very far place by now!¡±


    Elder Yu forced herself to calm down.


    ¡­


    After killing the Jade Lake disciple, Zhou Feng reaped a bountiful harvest.


    He casually took a medicinal bottle out of one of his storage rings.


    Regardless of what medicinal pill it was, he directly poured it into his mouth.


    In any case, as long as it wasn¡¯t poisonous, his Level-2 Gluttony would turn everything into nutrients.


    Well, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t afraid of poison at all.


    He really lacked all kinds of nutrients to temper his new arms.


    The AI was crazily calculating and began to mobilize the Blood Qi and nutrients in his body, modifying his physical body to the limit.


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    Zhou Feng, who originally wanted to leave, suddenly felt a familiar aura.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t this that Fairy Dream Butterfly?¡¯


    ¡°You¡¯re not one of those survivors!¡±


    He didn¡¯t know when, but Fairy Dream Butterfly appeared in front of him like a dream.


    Moreover, her tone was extremely certain, saying that he wasn¡¯t one of those survivors.


    She was still fully wrapped up like before, and she was wearing the most ordinary white gauze dress.


    However, it gave people an endless sense of reverie, and they would automatically imagine the person in front of them as the perfect woman in their hearts.


    That pair of bright black eyes seemed to carry a hint of inexplicable charm.


    It teased the string at the bottom of Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    ¡°Playing tricks!¡±


    The more this was the case, the more unhappy Zhou Feng became. Thus, he ordered the AI to analyze Fairy Dream Butterly.


    At the same time, he clenched his right hand, and a powerful suction force erupted.


    The surrounding corpses were all pulled up, and he collected the remaining Blood Qi in the flesh.


    Wasn¡¯t this scene a little familiar?


    That¡¯s right! After obtaining the AI, the Demon-Devouring Technique that Zhou Feng had once cultivated naturally became research material.


    He had always been extremely interested in the rapid advancement of the Demonic Path.


    That was the speed of a rocket.


    In addition, in order to rebuild his body, he had to accumulate a large amount of Blood Qi.


    And wasn¡¯t the unorthodox way the best at stealing other people¡¯s Blood Qi?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current move was the AI¡¯s research result.


    This move was called the Grand Demon-Devouring Art! Although the name was similar to the Demon-Devouring Technique, the function was different.


    The brand new Grand Demon-Devouring Art could extract the Blood Qi of all the surrounding corpses and temporarily seal it in a part of the body.


    All the deceased Jade Lake disciples instantly turned into dried corpses as Zou Feng sucked them dry of their Blood Qi.


    The Blood Qi had turned into a lump of flesh and was sealed in his body.


    It was impossible to devour it directly!


    Zhou Feng had already experienced the consequences of the chaotic Blood Qi.


    The lump of flesh that was mixed with the Blood Qi of countless people had to be processed before it could be devoured.


    Fairy Dream Butterfly looked at the dried corpses around her and frowned. ¡°You¡ª¡±


    ¡°Shut up!¡±


    Seeing that Fairy Dream Butterfly wanted to continue speaking, Zhou Feng became impatient and pierced through Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s body with a void spear.


    But just like before, Fairy Dream Butterfly turned into countless dream butterflies.


    ¡®I knew it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t attack again because he had verified that his attacks were useless against Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    It was unknown what kind of divine ability this Fairy Dream Butterfly cultivated, but she gave people a vague feeling.


    It was as if this world didn¡¯t exist.


    Although other people¡¯s attacks couldn¡¯t hurt her, it seemed that she couldn¡¯t attack other people either.


    He did not care about this so-called fairy at all. Right now, he only wanted to gather enough cultivation resources.


    He also wanted to take revenge on the three great holy lands.


    After extracting all the Blood Qi, he immediately fled.


    ¡°This is not over yet!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Elder Yu¡¯s position, and the Blood Qi in his body began to stir.


    Elder Yu carried the spirit peaches that had been harvested this year.


    If he could obtain these spirit peaches, he would not have to worry about the resources needed to reconstruct his body.


    Not long after Zhou Feng left, Fairy Dream Butterfly and Elder Yu rushed over.


    ¡°Ah! If I don¡¯t kill you, I swear I won¡¯t be a human!¡±


    Elder Yu could care less about maintaining her composure at all. Her red eyes revealed an expression of wanting to eat someone.


    It was only natural. After all, many Jade Lake disciples had lost their lives.


    The other party had even used demonic methods to turn them into dried corpses. When had the Jade Lake Holy Land ever suffered such grievance?


    A dream butterfly suddenly appeared in Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s hand.


    ¡°That person is not one of those survivors! Furthermore, his mind is tenaciously firm, and it is difficult to charm him!¡±

 Chapter 461 - So Infuriated that Her Lungs Were about to Explode!

    Elder Yu was already in a state of anger and anxiety.


    She had not been this angry for many years, but she really could not help it at this moment.


    No matter how well-mannered she was, she could not help but feel angry when she found out that she had been played like a pig.


    Not to mention Elder Yu was one of the oldest Jade Lake Elders, yet Zhou Feng, a brat that had only cultivated for a few years, had pulled a fast one on her.


    It was so infuriating that one would vomit blood.


    ¡°We should not treat Zhou Feng as your average cultivator!


    ¡°After offending the three holy lands, not only did he not flee to the end of the world, but he even chose to seek revenge!¡±


    More and more dream butterflies appeared in Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s hands.


    At the same time, she began to narrate the relevant information about Zhou Feng bit by bit.


    Compared to Elder Yu, Fairy Dream Butterfly knew Zhou Feng better.


    .


    After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s experience was already a legend.


    His cultivation time was also astonishingly short, and his breakthroughs were almost inexplicable.


    They had dug out Zhou Feng¡¯s experience in Heavenly Star City in great detail.


    He had broken through from a mere Soul Altar noob to the Divine Ability realm in less than two years.


    No matter how much they disapproved of it, Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation talent had already received many people¡¯s recognition.


    However, no one dared to publicly praise Zhou Feng. They could only analyze it in their hearts.


    Of course, what most people wanted to dig out was Zhou Feng¡¯s secret.


    What secret did this person have that allowed him to break through so quickly?


    It didn¡¯t even seem like there were any side effects.


    Demon possession? Or was it that his cultivation had been crippled, and he had to cultivate again?


    Everyone had made various speculations in their minds.


    Just this secret alone had affected the minds of countless cultivators.


    A cultivation technique that allowed one to break through so quickly was something that countless cultivators dreamed of.


    Why did the three great holy lands not allow any disciples to talk about Zhou Feng?


    It was all to suppress the news so that they could keep this secret for themselves.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s existence had incited everyone¡¯s greed, and even Dragon Transformation experts wanted to get their hands on him,


    ¡°I want to find this person now! I want to personally tear him into pieces!¡±


    Elder Yu had not calmed down until now.


    That broad chest had been trembling up and down. It was obvious that she was incensed.


    ¡°Elder Yu, it is not wise to go and find trouble with Zhou Feng alone. He once faced two Dragon Transformation Elders head-on and managed to escape in the end¡­¡±


    The number of dream butterflies in Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s hands increased. Her tone also became inhuman.


    Although she did not say it explicitly, the underlying meaning was very obvious.


    That was, if Elder Yu went to find trouble with Zhou Feng alone, then it was very likely that she would not be able to defeat him.


    After all, back then, Zhou Feng was facing two Dragon Transformation Elders whose strength was at its peak.


    Although Elder Yu was also a Dragon Transformation expert, her strength had already weakened while her lifespan had reached the limit.


    If she met Zhou Feng, it was uncertain who would be the victor.


    Zhou Feng was like the rising sun, while Elder Yu was like the setting sun.


    Even if Elder Yu had an advantage in terms of realm, she might even be the one who would be at a disadvantage in a fight.


    Simply put, Elder Yu¡¯s sharpness had already disappeared.


    ¡°Dream Butterfly! Do you know what you¡¯re saying?¡±


    Elder Yu¡¯s eyes were filled with disbelief. She simply could not accept that she was actually on par with Zhou Feng in Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s eyes. This was simply an insult!


    ¡°Of course! That¡¯s not right!¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly first nodded with certainty, then immediately denied it.


    Such an attitude dumbfounded Elder Yu.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°He didn¡¯t leave!¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s body dissipated once more, turning into countless dream butterflies.


    ¡°He didn¡¯t leave¡ª¡±


    Before Elder Yu could finish his sentence, two void spears shot out from the sky.


    Their speed was as fast as lightning.


    Fairy Dream Butterfly had turned into a dream butterfly one step ahead of Elder Yu and dodged the attack.


    Elder Yu raised a jade wall and blocked this attack.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng had returned again!


    When everyone thought that he had already fled, he quietly returned.


    At this time, most of the Jade Lake disciples had spread out, searching for any traces Zhou Feng might have left behind.


    The place where the Peach Blossom Convention was held had become the safest place.


    After all, a Dragon Transformation Elder was overseeing that place.


    Since Zhou Feng was so smart, he shouldn¡¯t have come back to seek death, right?


    It was precisely because he grasped this kind of mentality that he returned again.


    ¡°You still want to run?¡±


    Zhou Feng, who had returned on starlight, locked onto the flying dream butterflies in the sky.


    This same move had been used in front of him time and time again.


    She simply did not put him in his eyes.


    ¡®Soul Punch!¡¯


    A large amount of soul power was consumed.


    ¡°Soul attack!?¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly, who seemed to be hidden in layers of fog, was finally forced out.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s Soul Punch directly attacked the Fairy Dream Butterfly, who was hidden in the dream realm.


    A shocked expression crept onto the Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s face.


    ¡°Thief! You actually dared to come back!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions ignited Elder Yu¡¯s anger which had just calmed down.


    Too arrogant! Simply too arrogant!


    This person¡¯s audacity knew no limits! He had come back and even wanted to kill the Fairy Dream Butterfly!


    Such an attitude showed that he did not put Elder Yu in his eyes at all.


    How could she stomach the fact that a junior looked down on her?


    ¡°Green Lotus Slash!¡±


    Suddenly, the lingering twilight aura Elder Yu exuded vanished, and she burst with power.


    Her voice full of anger shook the heavens while her tied-up long hair broke free and danced like black snakes.


    Green lotuses grew in Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh and blood, and they were going to sever them


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Zhou Feng snorted coldly, and his Blood Qi burst forth like a divine furnace, burning with eternal divine fire.


    The green lotuses were all incinerated by the fiery Blood Qi.


    He then waved his right fist, and golden Blood Qi mixed with silver-white Great Void Primordial Qi turned into a raging dragon.


    The target of the attack was not Elder Yu but Fairy Dream Butterfly, who was beside Elder Yu.


    According to the AI¡¯s calculations, this Dragon Transformation Elder wasn¡¯t that threatening.


    On the contrary, this mysterious Fairy Dream Butterfly was more dangerous.


    The sense of danger suddenly rose especially after using the Soul Punch to hit Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    ¡°Transform!¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly had already recovered her calmness at this time. Her green-like fingers gently pointed forward.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch was instantly dissolved.


    No one knew how she did it, but Zhou Feng¡¯s punch seemed like something he had dreamt. Now that he was awake, the dream naturally disappeared.


    ¡°As expected!¡±


    Alarm bells rang in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart upon seeing this.


    On the other hand, Elder Yu¡¯s anger was pushed even higher because Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude and actions simply said that a dignified Dragon Transformation Elder couldn¡¯t even be compared to the Divine Ability Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    2

 Chapter 462 - A True Lunatic!

    Fairy Dream Butterfly was really strange. She could transform reality and dreams into each other.


    It seemed that only soul attacks could affect Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    As for Elder Yu, who was in the Dragon Transformation realm, she seemed ordinary.


    It wasn¡¯t that she wasn¡¯t strong enough, but that she was very ordinary.


    It was completely due to the advantage brought by the realm, and she wasn¡¯t very good in other aspects.


    Why were some cultivators called freaks while others weren¡¯t mentioned by many people?


    Because the real freaks, apart from the realm, were able to crush ordinary cultivators in other aspects.


    For example, the power of the different divine abilities cultivated was also very different.


    ¡°Little thief, give me your life!¡±


    Elder Yu did not hold back her Dragon Transformation strength at all due to her anger.


    .


    A huge green lotus was born.


    This was the Jade Lake¡¯s secret divine ability, the Lotus Life Ability.


    It was said that it was created by the Jade Lake ancestors and contained traces of the law of life.


    It was also the divine ability that the Jade Lake disciples cultivated the most.


    Almost all the Jade Lake disciples would cultivate this divine ability as long as they reached the Divine Ability realm.


    This was because it was very easy to cultivate, and it could also work with the lotus flowers in the lotus pond.


    The enormous green lotus that was formed out of thin air completely enveloped Zhou Feng in an instant.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that the growth of his physical body had actually accelerated?


    It was as if there was a special force that was constantly urging his physical body to continue growing.


    His physical body was aging at an accelerated rate?


    Even the Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi in his body were flowing away at an accelerated rate.


    The Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi that were flowing away were constantly nourishing this green lotus.


    This involved the law of life.


    ¡®It is indeed the advantage of the Dragon Transformation realm!¡¯


    The Great Void Primordial Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body enveloped his entire body, completely shielding him.


    Although Elder Yu was considered mediocre among the Dragon Transformation experts, she was still a Dragon Transformation expert.


    The advantage of the Dragon Transformation realm compared to the Divine Ability realm was that their physical body was stronger.


    Although Divine Ability cultivators had already begun to come into contact with the power of the laws, there was a limit to the amount of law power they could withstand.


    They could tap into the power of laws but only a fraction of it because their physical bodies were weak. On the other hand, a Dragon Transformation expert¡¯s body endurance was greatly increased.


    They were already able to accept the power of laws pouring in.


    At this time, it was not just borrowing the power of laws but directly using the power of laws.


    Zhou Feng was certain that Elder Yu¡¯s understanding of Lotus Life definitely could not compare to the Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    However, the power that she displayed far surpassed that of Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    The reason was that her physical body already contained a trace of the power of laws.


    ¡®I don¡¯t seem to be far off from breaking through to the Dragon Transformation realm!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s mind was filled with many thoughts.


    However, the expression on his face did not change at all. He was still as calm as ever, and his gaze was still fixed on Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    The Great Void Primordial Qitrue Qi was like a torrent, continuously circulating around his body.


    In addition to the various passives that were beginning to stack up, such as Adaptive Shell and Fighting Spirit, Elder Yu¡¯s powerful attack did not cause the slightest bit of damage.


    After gaining the AI and reaching his full potential, he was actually not any weaker than some piece of trash in the Dragon Transformation realm.


    For example, Elder Yu, who was at the Dragon Transformation realm and had exhausted her lifespan, was not a threat to Zhou Feng at all.


    The rage in Elder Yu¡¯s heart burned even more furiously upon seeing this.


    Once upon a time, she was also a fairy-like figure, but now she was looked down upon by this junior.


    The feeling of being a fairy in her twilight years was even more obvious.


    For some reason, the more Zhou Feng acted like this, the angrier Elder Yu became.


    Elder Yu¡¯s rationality was affected, and her aura started to become unstable.


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong! Elder Yu! Be careful!¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly defused Zhou Feng¡¯s attack once again, but she realized that something was wrong in the next second.


    Because from the beginning to the end, Zhou Feng¡¯s attention was not on her.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s real target had always been Elder Yu!


    This was a trap!


    Zhou Feng wanted to kill an expert beyond his level, and Elder Yu, who was already in her twilight years, was the best target!


    Everything he had done before was to confuse them.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Elder Yu was a bit confused. She didn¡¯t understand what Fairy Dream Butterfly meant at first.


    But soon, she understood what was going on as a killing intent suddenly emerged from behind her.


    This was because Zhou Feng had barely looked at Elder Yu during the battle just now. He had been fighting with Fairy Dream Butterfly the entire time.


    Although Elder Yu was very incensed, there was nothing she could do.


    When facing Zhou Feng, her various methods were completely useless.


    Even though she managed to cause some damage with great difficulty, Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries recovered in a few seconds.


    The thief in front of her was a freak!


    It was because of this that Elder Yu was distracted.


    And it was because of this distraction that Zhou Feng sneak attacked her.


    At some point, the Chaotian Sword suddenly appeared behind Elder Yu.


    It was like a silent killer¡ªsilent and deadly!


    ¡°That connate numinous treasure!?¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly finally understood why Zhou Feng dared to target a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    It was because he had the Chaotian Sword.


    In the next instant, a strand of Yang Sword Qi pierced through Elder Yu¡¯s back!


    ¡°Die!¡±


    A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    A burst of starlight flashed, and he rushed in front of Elder Yu to¡­ hug her tightly!


    Before Elder Yu could react, her flat chest crashed into Zhou Feng.


    In the next second, Zhou Feng¡¯s legs self-destructed!


    That¡¯s right! It self-destructed!


    The violent Blood Qi was crazily compressed before it was released, creating a terrifying explosion.


    Zhou Feng had already used this kind of crazy attack before.


    It was just that his arms had self-destructed before, and now it was his leg.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Horror! Disbelief! Madness!


    Many kinds of emotions were mixed on Elder Yu¡¯s face because she was going to die! The aura of death began to linger in her heart.


    She had never thought that a Divine Ability cultivator would force her to this extent.


    He had gone bonkers! The person in front of her was a lunatic!


    He actually hugged her and detonated his leg!


    Was this f¡±cking something that a normal person could do?


    Could it be that he wouldn¡¯t be harmed?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were extremely harmful to himself.


    If he weren¡¯t careful, Zhou Feng himself would also die here.


    This kind of unexpected detonation had an extremely good effect.


    Elder Yu¡¯s lower body was blasted apart, and countless pieces of flesh and bones flew everywhere.


    However, the terrifying physical body of a Dragon Transformation cultivator allowed Elder Yu not to die, and even her life aura did not weaken by much.


    That huge wound was also continuously squirming and recovering.


    As for Zhou Feng, he was not much better.


    His physical body had cracked open, and his aura instantly weakened.


    But even so, Zhou Feng did not even frown. Instead, he used his right hand to strangle Elder Yu¡¯s neck ruthlessly and poured his Great Void Primordial Qi into Elder Yu¡¯s body in an eerily calm manner.

 Chapter 463 - Capturing a Dragon Transformation Elder Alive

    At that moment, Elder Yu was shell-shocked.


    All sorts of methods were useless. Or rather, before she could even use any of her trump cards, Zhou Feng instantly subdued her.


    By the time she regained her senses, Elder Yu discovered that she was already completely unable to move.


    The surging Great Void Primordial Qi would extinguish her vitality as long as she moved.


    Zhou Feng grabbed Elder Yu with one hand and said to Fairy Dream Butterfly, ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, although you can change reality and environment, you don¡¯t have many offensive means, right?¡±


    The dignified Dragon Transformation Elder was being grabbed by her neck without any dignity.


    As for Fairy Dream Butterfly, she looked like she was at her wit¡¯s end.


    That¡¯s right! Just as he had said, Fairy Dream Butterfly was currently in a special state.


    The Dream Butterfly Ability she cultivated had already reached a critical point, and her physical body was in a state where dreams and reality intertwined.


    Although others couldn¡¯t attack her, she also had no way to attack others.


    .


    Fairy Dream Butterfly was already making preparations to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm!


    Once she succeeded, she would be able to return to reality from the illusory dream realm, and her corporeal body would directly transform into that of a dragon and reconstruct itself.


    ¡°You will die!¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly did not make a move either. She just quietly looked at Zhou Feng and spat out these three words.


    These three words did not have the slightest fluctuation, as if she was merely stating a fact.


    After that, Fairy Dream Butterfly did not say any nonsense. She did not even ask Zhou Feng to let go of Elder Yu.


    She just turned into countless dream butterflies and disappeared between heaven and earth.


    This was because Fairy Dream Butterfly understood Zhou Feng¡¯s style. He was an extremely crazy but rational person.


    He wouldn¡¯t be affected by external factors. He would only advance toward the goal in his heart.


    The so-called threat? In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, it was just a joke.


    1


    There were even times when threatening Zhou Feng was just asking for humiliation.


    The best way to deal with such a person was to say nothing and slap him to death!


    Don¡¯t give any chance and don¡¯t argue!


    Therefore, after realizing that she couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng, Fairy Dream Butterfly left without saying a word.


    ¡°Dream Butterfly!¡±


    Elder Yu wasn¡¯t as clear-headed as Fairy Dream Butterfly thought.


    She didn¡¯t expect that Fairy Dream Butterfly would actually ignore her and leave.


    She let her fall into the hands of this devil just like that?


    This was undoubtedly a huge blow. A dignified Dragon Transformation Elder had become the captive of a vagabond cultivator?


    At that moment, Elder Yu began to reflect on how she ended up like this.


    First of all, she was too careless!


    She already knew Zhou Feng¡¯s battle history and the fact she had managed to escape from the hands of two Dragon Transformation Elders.


    However, she was still too arrogant when she met Zhou Feng.


    The gap in realm made Elder Yu look down on Zhou Feng from the bottom of her heart.


    Later on, because of Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude, she lost her balance and thought that Zhou Feng had put all his attention on Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    In the end, she was ambushed and did not use more than half of her trump cards.


    In fact, it was because she had underestimated Zhou Feng and thought that no matter how powerful Zhou Feng was, he could not hurt her.


    The terrifying physical body of a Dragon Transformation cultivator made Elder Yu think that she was safe enough.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You won¡¯t die for the time being.¡±


    Zhou Feng twisted his right hand and broke Elder Yu¡¯s neck as he said this.


    ¡°You¡ª¡±


    Elder Yu, whose neck was broken, did not die. Her face was still full of resentment.


    Moreover, Elder Yu¡¯s physical body was still full of vitality even though the Great Void Primordial Qi was wreaking havoc in it.


    As expected! From the beginning of the Dragon Transformation realm, the physical body of a cultivator had already become inhuman.


    This kind of injury would have killed an ordinary cultivator 10,000 times over, but Elder Yu was still fine.


    If she hadn¡¯t been severely injured by the Chaotian Sword and then controlled by the Great Void Primordial Qi, it would have been challenging to capture Elder Yu alive.


    ¡®I can¡¯t stay here any longer¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly erupted with power and smashed the Chaotian Sword to the ground with his fist.


    In addition to this, the three chances that the Chaotian sword had mentioned had all been used up.


    Normally, the Chaotian Sword would leave Zhou Feng to find its next owner.


    However, how could he let this treasure leave him?


    Thus, he smashed the already severely damaged Chaotian Sword into a daze.


    By continuously using the power of origin, the Chaotian sword entered a weakened state.


    That was why Zhou Feng found an opportunity. All of this was a ploy.


    The Chaotian Sword was enraged and began to vibrate continuously.


    It looked as if it was questioning Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Why!? Didn¡¯t I promise to help you three times!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care how angry the Chaotian Sword was.


    He just spat out a lump of flesh from his palm and sealed the Chaotian Sword with it.


    This lump of flesh was the essence of the flesh that Zhou Feng had plundered with the new Grand Demon-Devouring Art.


    This was a chain of events, and he had just completed all his goals.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Even though Zhou Feng had lost his leg, he still fled at breakneck speed because he used a dao soldier as a prosthetic limb.


    2


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng appeared in the Jade Lake Holy Land again!


    A Dragon Transformation Jade Lake Elder was subdued!


    Countless spirit peaches were plundered!


    The culprit was Zhou Feng!


    All kinds of explosive news spread throughout the entire Jade Lake Holy Land in an instant. Even the other two holy lands received the news.


    This time, even if the three great holy lands wanted to suppress it, they couldn¡¯t!


    After all, this information was too explosive!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s name completely resounded throughout the entire Southern Border.


    It was even more exaggerated than Resentful Old Ghost.


    How many years had it been? The Southern Border¡¯s vagabond cultivators had finally produced a super monster.


    Not only did he go against the three great holy lands, but he also abducted a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation was only in the Divine Ability realm. It had been a long time since such a shocking performance of going against the flow and attacking immortals had appeared.


    Perhaps in other places, such as the Central Plains, there would often be people in the Divine Ability realm who could defeat Dragon Transformation cultivators.


    However, this had never been the case in the Southern Border.


    The Dragon Transformation realm had a crushing advantage over the Divine Ability realm.


    This was the iron law.


    It was also the reason the Southern Border was regarded as a desolate land.


    There weren¡¯t even geniuses who could challenge those of a higher realm? What kind of rubbish place was this?


    1


    Don¡¯t think that this kind of saying was laughable. In fact, it was common for true evildoers to fight those of a higher realm.


    Some evildoers would even take the initiative to suppress and break through in order to fight those of a higher realm so that they could temper themselves in life and death situations.


    ¡°Where exactly did this evildoer come from?¡±


    ¡°Haha! The three great holy lands have finally met their match!¡±


    ¡°What Holy Sons and Holy Maidens? They¡¯re all pieces of trash! Who can compare to Zhou Feng?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Even if the three great holy lands surround him, they won¡¯t be able to kill Zhou Feng!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    All of a sudden, Zhou Feng obtained countless worshippers, and they began to promote him crazily.


    Most of these people were vagabond cultivators and disciples of small sects. The main reason was that the three great holy lands had controlled the Southern Border for too long.


    90% of all cultivation resources were monopolized by the three great holy lands, leaving only some leftovers.


    This naturally caused the dissatisfaction of many vagabond cultivators, so these people regarded Zhou Feng as a hero.


    Finally, someone raised the banner of resistance against the three great holy lands and their atrocities!

 Chapter 464 - Not Learning a Soul

    ¡°In the end, she died¡­¡±


    A trace of pity appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    Elder Yu had lost her life.


    At first, Zhou Feng thought that he could capture a Dragon Transformation cultivator alive.


    After all, this Elder Yu was not a mere Dragon Transformation cultivator but also a Jade Lake Elder.


    She knew many secrets, but among them, Zhou Feng was undoubtedly most concerned about the method to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    At present, Zhou Feng was still confused about how to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm. If he had the guidance of an experienced Dragon Transformation cultivator, that would be the best.


    Unfortunately, after knowing that there was no hope of escape, Elder Yu immediately committed suicide.


    Zhou Feng had no way to stop her, even though he had already used the Great Void Primordial Qi to control Elder Yu¡¯s physical body.


    However, he could not control Elder Yu¡¯s soul.


    Elder Yu had even cursed viciously before her death.


    ¡°You will not have a good ending! Even if you can escape the pursuit of the holy land, you will live in pain every day! Your friends and family will die because of you. In the end, they will die under the holy land¡¯s crusade to kill you!¡±


    Elder Yu¡¯s face was filled with viciousness when she uttered this curse. She looked as if this curse would take effect by gnashing her teeth.


    It was a pity that Zhou Feng did not feel much fear when facing this so-called curse.


    ¡°What a pity¡­ I have yet to master soul-searching and soul-extraction techniques!¡±


    As Zhou Feng spoke, there was a trace of pity on his face.


    This scared Elder Yu so much that he detonated his soul in despair, wanting to give Zhou Feng a final blow.


    Few cultivators would choose to self-detonate their souls.


    Because once the soul self-detonated, it would be impossible to resurrect.


    After breaking through to the Dragon Transformation realm, the physical body began to become Inhuman, and even the soul began to transform to some extent.


    At this time, it was tough for a cultivator to die. The only way to truly die was due to old age.


    After the Dragon Transformation realm came the Dao Enlightenment realm. The power of laws would baptize a Dao Enlightenment cultivator¡¯s soul.


    At this time, even if the physical body was destroyed, the soul could still be preserved. The possession technique could also be used from the Dao Enlightenment realm onward.


    Elder Yu¡¯s final self-detonation of the soul naturally did not hurt Zhou Feng.


    The AI used Hexadirectional Calculation to divine good and bad luck all day long. Before Elder Yu¡¯s soul burst, Zhou Feng had already retreated.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng really regretted not learning more demonic techniques like soul searching.


    Wasn¡¯t he in urgent need of all kinds of cultivation techniques? Why didn¡¯t he extract souls and soul-searching techniques?


    How many cultivators had he killed before? Even if soul-searching techniques had many side effects, and the information obtained from soul-searching was incomplete, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t afraid of the side effects. He had even killed enough people to win with quantity.


    After coming to his senses, Zhou Feng only felt that he had missed out on 100,000,000 Spirit Stones.


    ¡°What a pity! I woke up too late!¡±


    He could not help but shake his head and sigh.


    Other people might have some sort of distinction between good and evil, but Zhou Feng did not have so many concerns.


    As long as it was beneficial to the path of cultivation, he could learn.


    What did that indicate? Good and evil were not decided by the cultivation technique but by people.


    ¡°Let¡¯s think about it after destroying the other leg and reconstruct them!¡±


    Zhou Feng stored Elder Yu¡¯s body and prepared to move.


    This was the body of a Dragon Transformation cultivator. If he thoroughly studied it, he might be able to discover the mysteries of the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Elder Yu also had many spirit peaches, which completely solved the problem of his lack of cultivation resources.


    In the end, as long as one was strong enough, cultivation resources would come as they wished.


    It was just that his current situation was a little peculiar.


    ¡°The three great holy lands have a lot of tricks up their sleeves¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth was triggered.


    Obviously, the Jade Lake Holy Land had used some unknown method to locate him, but his passive skill negated the effect.


    ¡­


    ¡°That little b*stard countered it! That little b*stard had countered the Blood Resentment Art as well!¡±


    ¡°Again! I don¡¯t believe that this little b*stard can keep negating the effect!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! This time, even if we have to use the holy land¡¯s foundation, we have to capture this little b*stard!¡±


    ¡°When the time comes, this little b*stard will know that death is the most comfortable option!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Not long ago, Elder Yu¡¯s life lamp had been extinguished, which meant that she had died.


    Elder Yu¡¯s disciples were already red-eyed, and their voices were hoarse.


    Just from the way they addressed Zhou Feng, one could feel how much they hated him.


    They used the words ¡°little b*stard¡± to replace Zhou Feng¡¯s name.


    Although the other people from the Jade Lake Holy Land were more rational, one could see from their determined eyes that the Jade Lake Holy Land would turn to ruthless methods.


    The loss of a Dragon Transformation Elder was something that could not be covered up no matter how much one tried.


    This time was different from before. If the Jade Lake Holy Land did not show any reaction, not only would the hearts of the people waver, but the other two holy lands would also regard it as a sign of weakness.


    Therefore, this matter alarmed the Jade Lake Holy Lord.


    Countless small forces and vagabond cultivators who were allied with the Jade Lake Holy Land were mobilized.


    ¡°As long as we can capture that little b*stard alive and hand him to the Jade Lake Holy Land, we can enter the lotus pond and choose a lotus flower!¡±


    This was the reward that the Jade Lake Holy Lord had personally announced.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land was well aware that only pure benefits could mobilize cultivators.


    In order to capture Zhou Feng, they even promised to let anyone pick a lotus flower from the lotus pond.


    It must be known that before this, other than the Jade Lake disciples, no other cultivator had ever obtained a lotus flower from the lotus pond.


    The lotus flowers in that pond were all the Chaotic Green Lotus¡¯ descendants.


    Although they were thousands of miles away from the Chaotic Green Lotus, they were still born with spiritual essence.


    Moreover, they were born with the spirit embryo of a connate numinous treasure. Such a precious thing instantly made countless cultivators restless.


    Even the disciples of the other two holy lands were somewhat moved.


    Since the Jade Lake Holy Land was so open and public, they definitely wouldn¡¯t go back on their word.


    Even if they wanted to go back on their word, the other two holy lands wouldn¡¯t allow it.


    Besides that, as long as they could provide information about Zhou Feng, they would be heavily rewarded.


    The worst-case scenario would be 1,000 Spirit Stones or a divine ability, depending on the value of the information.


    ¡°The descendant of the Chaotic Green Lotus! Haha! This must be mine!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t dare to think about the green lotus anymore. I just want 1,000 Spirit stones.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯m not greedy. As long as I have Spirit Stones, it will be fine.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    It had to be said that the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s generous reward attracted the attention of countless people.


    If they were only looking for traces of Zhou Feng, many cultivators would be interested.


    In any case, they wouldn¡¯t need to fight Zhou Feng to death. They would only provide traces of Zhou Feng.


    Some cultivators from other sects began to become active.


    They might not be able to fight, but if it was in other aspects, they had the numbers advantage on their side!


    At present, the words ¡®frantic search¡¯ were the best to describe the situation within the three holy lands¡¯ sphere of influence.

 Chapter 465 - Complete Reconstruction of the Physical Body!

    At this time, Zhou Feng had almost entered a situation where he was the enemy of the whole world.


    Countless cultivators wanted to obtain the bounty of the Jade Lake Holy Land. Even though they knew that Zhou Feng was not easy to deal with and had an extremely valiant battle record, they all started to take action.


    Some cultivators formed groups.


    One person didn¡¯t dare to cause trouble for Zhou Feng, but the situation would be different with a group of people.


    However, nobody had managed to find traces of Zhou Feng so far.


    Zhou Feng had used the passive Bloodline Simulation to change his aura and then dug a hole on the spot.


    Ordinary people couldn¡¯t find his position.


    Even cultivators who were proficient in mystical techniques found it challenging to calculate his exact position.


    ¡®I still need some time¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was crazily stuffing all kinds of spirit peaches into his mouth.


    .


    His legs were rapidly taking shape as a large amount of flesh and bone marrow began to grow.


    In the process, Zhou Feng even cut off pieces of his flesh and began to regenerate them step by step.


    This process could be said to be extremely bloody.


    But he thought it was very worth it because it was almost equivalent to upgrading his cultivation talent.


    It was a fundamental change to his mortal body.


    It felt like he was refining a magic treasure.


    ¡°The Emperor Coiling Scripture! As expected of the former emperor¡¯s cultivation technique! Although it doesn¡¯t fit the current era, it is still worthy of reference!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but feel a little lucky.


    Fortunately, he had picked the Emperor Coiling Scripture as the entry-level cultivation technique.


    Although the Emperor Coiling Scripture was a little demanding, it wasn¡¯t the original version.


    After all, the foundation was there, so it was much easier for the AI to optimize it.


    If it were an extremely low-grade cultivation technique, it would be difficult to improve it.


    Zhou Feng recultivated the optimized Emperor Coiling Scripture, and his cultivation speed was many times faster than before.


    Firstly, because his arms had been remodeled, his physical body had been greatly improved.


    Secondly, he had obtained enough resources from Elder Yu¡¯s storage ring.


    Apart from the numerous spirit peaches, there were also all kinds of treasures. This was the accumulated wealth of a Dragon Transformation Jade Lake Elder!


    All kinds of medicinal pills and spirit herbs piled up into a small mountain.


    Then there was the passive Cultivation Simulation.


    Cultivation Simulation: You will undergo another simulated cultivation every time you cultivate.


    And you will obtain the corresponding cultivation experience.


    With this passive skill, cultivating once was equal to cultivating twice.


    It was a direct two-fold increase.


    Even physical body remodeling could receive this bonus.


    Then there was the AI that controlled the overall situation, dividing his physical body into different areas.


    They were undergoing reconstruction and training separately.


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng¡¯s heartbeat stopped, and then it began to beat violently again.


    Endless Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi were continuously transforming his entire body.


    Even his golden Blood Qi which was like a vast ocean, started to burn.


    Boundless rays of light immediately illuminated the area, and golden flames filled this temporary cave abode.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s skin became transparent, and his flesh was crystal clear.


    The bones and internal organs inside were visible.


    Some dark red blood seeped out of his pores, and some bone fragments spurted out of his pores.


    Crackle!


    The blood flames ignited by the Human Emperor Blood began to force out the impurities in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The blood flame gradually tempered the newly-grown bones, and some complicated and strange patterns appeared on them.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was beating even faster.


    Countless streams of Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi were released along with the beating heart.


    Later on, he couldn¡¯t keep up because of the lack of nutrients, so he simply poured out all the things in Elder Yu¡¯s storage ring.


    All kinds of spirit peaches, pills, and spirit herbs were burned up by the golden blood flame as soon as they appeared.


    They turned into endless Spiritual Qi and allowed Zhou Feng to continue.


    Crack! Crack!


    The sound of bones breaking echoed again. More of the original bones were destroyed, and some flesh and blood were continuously expelled.


    2


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was also affected by the change in his body.


    His huge soul was being refined and turned solid.


    In fact, Zhou Feng¡¯s pool of soul power could be considered vast.


    Although he didn¡¯t cultivate a visualization technique to improve his soul power, he had the passive Soul Harvesting. Each soul of a fallen opponent could give him a trace of soul power.


    Moreover, this increased soul power had no impurities.


    It was also because of this that Zhou Feng was able to use the Soul Punch.


    He could forcefully exhaust his soul power to use the soul attack by relying on his solid foundation.


    However, although his soul power was potent enough, his soul was not solid because he didn¡¯t cultivate a visualization technique.


    Now that he was reconstructing his physical body, he did not expect his soul to become solid as well slowly.


    The soul and physical body were indeed complementary. Whenever one side had a huge improvement, the other side would be affected.


    Under the support of a huge amount of Spiritual Qi and soul power, Zhou Feng finally shed his original fleshly shell.


    It was as if he was born anew.


    His fair and tender skin was extremely delicate and smooth, no different from a baby¡¯s skin.


    2


    ¡°I succeeded?¡±


    Zhou Feng opened his eyes, seemingly unable to believe that he had really reconstructed his physical body.


    The time it took to reconstruct his physical body was not long.


    It only took about 15 minutes, but the effect was unprecedentedly good.


    At that moment, he took a deep breath, and the Blood Qi in his body surged like 10,000 streams. With each breath, there was the sound of thunder.


    Smooth! Silky smooth!


    If one were to compare the previous body to a tattered old machine, then the current body was a top-tier product that had just been manufactured.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s previous body was too strained. He had managed to cultivate to the Divine Ability realm entirely by relying on his passive skills.


    Even though that body had been healed and mended many times, there were still all kinds of hidden dangers, and he could not display his full strength at all.


    There were also the chaotic Blood Qi, hidden injuries, and some irreversible injuries caused by changing his cultivation techniques multiple times.


    Back then, he had forcefully changed his cultivation from the Demon-Devouring Technique to the Emperor Coiling Scripture, and it was not without a price.


    Zhou Feng might not have noticed it before, but after obtaining the AI, he realized how terrible his previous physical body was.


    If not for this reason, he would not have made up his mind to reconstruct his physical body.


    But now, the old body had already dissipated in the blood flames.


    Zhou Feng had gained a new life! A terrifying physical body with unlimited potential!


    ¡°This is awesome! Is this the benefit of having a high aptitude?¡±


    Zhou Feng took the initiative to inhale and exhale the surrounding Spiritual Qi. The surrounding Spiritual Qi seemed to have found something delicious, and it drilled into his physical body without any regard for his life.


    This was completely different from the feeling of stumbling when he was doing the breathing exercises previously.


    ¡°Oh right! I defied the heavens to change my destiny! I should have completely changed my own destiny! I should be able to draw a new passive skill!¡±


    Zhou Feng was exhilarated as he opened the skill panel.

 Chapter 466 - Immovable like a Mountain

    As expected, the progress bar was full after opening the skill panel.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t waste any time and drew a new passive.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Immovable Mountain: You can borrow the earth¡¯s essence as long as you stay still and keep your feet on the ground. (Damage reduction: +25%)


    ¡°What!?¡±


    When he first saw this passive skill, he hadn¡¯t reacted yet.


    But after carefully reading its description, he started to wonder if his eyes were playing tricks on him.


    ¡®Damage reduction +25%!?


    .


    ¡®Are you sure you¡¯re not joking with me!?


    ¡®This is a direct percentage damage reduction!¡¯


    In other words, when the enemy attacked him, their power would be reduced by 1/4.


    Did this invincible passive skill really exist?


    After the shock, Zhou Feng immediately understood what it meant to be immovable like a mountain.


    He stood still for three seconds and immediately felt the earth¡¯s essence under his feet.


    The dense earth¡¯s essence formed a protective shell around his body.


    When he took a step forward, the earth¡¯s essence under his feet instantly disappeared.


    Then, after three seconds of not moving, the earth¡¯s essence began to appear again.


    ¡°Invincible!¡±


    Zhou Feng could only use the word ¡®invincible¡¯ to describe it.


    This was the best damage reduction passive skill that he had obtained.


    He couldn¡¯t even remember how many damage reduction passive skills he had.


    ¡°It just so happens that I can do some calculations!¡±


    Zhou Feng began to recall the various passive skills that he had obtained previously.


    ¡®Growable Skin is the fusion of Old Skin and another passive skill. It automatically reduces 5% of the impact¡¯s power, and it can stack up to a maximum of 50%.¡¯


    This passive skill could be considered as the one that reduced the most inflicted damage before the passive Immovable Mountain.


    ¡®There is also Spiritual Qi Resistance, which can reduce the damage of spiritual attacks and dao arts by 15%.


    ¡®Then I have Adaptive Shell, Reinforced Iron Bones, Tough Skin, and Bone Coating¡­¡¯


    The passive skills listed above were almost all related to damage reduction.


    Now that he was as immobile as a mountain, Zhou Feng guessed that even a Dragon Transformation cultivator would find it difficult to kill him.


    Not to mention, there was also the passive Tenacious Heart, Fast Healing, and so on.


    With so many passive abilities added together and the reconstructed body, Zhou Feng did not even know how strong he was.


    ¡°The only pity is that Immovable Mountain¡¯s trigger condition is that I have to keep still. Otherwise, the damage reduction effect will be gone.¡±


    At this time, he was still immersed in the illusion of invincibility.


    However, in the next second, the AI reminded him that someone had come looking for him.


    It was probably because his aura could not be concealed when he was reconstructing his physical body.


    ¡°Come out!¡±


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s Blood Qi was like a tidal wave as she stared at Zhou Feng¡¯s underground location.


    Because Zhou Feng had not gone far, his cave abode near Immortal Peach City.


    Although he had made a lot of arrangements before reconstructing his physical body, Wu Shuhua had detected him because the fluctuations of his ¡®project¡¯ were too big.


    As a fellow body refiner, Wu Shuhua was extremely sensitive to the perception of Blood Qi.


    Others may not have noticed, but she did.


    Just at this time, Wu Shuhua seemed a little strange.


    Normally, as a Jade Lake disciple, she should act immediately after finding Zhou Feng. Or, she could have asked for help and waited for the others to rush over and capture Zhou Feng together.


    However, Wu Shuhua did not do this. She did not even have the intention to make a move.


    She only mobilized the rich Blood Qi in her body to remind Zhou Feng. It seemed like she wanted to have a talk with him.


    ¡°It¡¯s you?¡±


    Zhou Feng crawled out from underground. When he saw Wu Shuhua, his eyes were filled with a hint of surprise.


    Due to the reconstruction of his physical body, he was now half-naked with only a pair of shorts on his lower body.


    However, it was precisely because of this that Wu Shuhua found him attractive.


    His handsome face was like a sculpture. Coupled with his expressionless face, he gave off a cold and stern feeling.


    1


    There was also his half-naked upper body. Although his skin was like that of a baby¡¯s, delicate and fair, his muscles looked like a marble statue¡¯s. Zhou Feng looked extremely majestic and attractive.


    ¡°Is this your original appearance?¡±


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s bloody aura intensified.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you a Jade Lake disciple?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this, a trace of interest arose in his heart.


    If he remembered correctly, Wu Shuhua seemed to have cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    When he looked at Wu Shuhua again, he could still feel a sense of pressure.


    It was because the woman in front of him was too tall.


    1


    After reconstructing his body, he was about 1.8 meters tall, which was not considered short.


    But in front of Wu Shuhua, he was still half a head shorter.


    Wu Shuhua was about 1.9 meters tall.


    Her entire body was still covered in battle armor, but it still couldn¡¯t hide her curvaceous figure.


    Although her sword-like eyebrows gave off a valiant air, her face was exquisite.


    It was a perfect combination of a delicate beauty and valiant demeanor. A peerless beauty who could kill people without hesitation?


    This could probably be used to describe Wu Shuhua.


    ¡°I¡¯m a Jade Lake disciple, but I¡¯m also a barbarian of the Northern Region!¡±


    Wu Shuhua deliberately emphasized her words on the Northern Region¡¯s barbarian heritage.


    She wanted to see how Zhou Feng would react.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not react at all when he heard those words.


    ¡°So?¡±


    He raised his eyebrows.


    ¡®A barbarian of the Northern Region? Then how did she end up at the Southern Border?¡¯


    The Central Plains separated the Northern Region from the Southern Border.


    ¡°So, You really don¡¯t know anything?¡±


    For some reason, a hint of anger appeared on Wu Shuhua¡¯s face.


    ¡°Hmph¡±


    Zhou Feng snorted coldly. He did not intend to play charades with the person in front of him.


    Perhaps there was something about him that caused Wu Shuhua to misunderstand.


    However, he did not want to delve into it. He wanted to fight first.


    His golden Blood Qi burst and Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body became resplendent. The golden Blood Qi soared into the sky, and a terrifying ocean-like fluctuation surged.


    Zhou Feng exploded with an incomparably powerful aura as he threw a punch.


    Boom!


    Wu Shuhua also snorted coldly and started fighting.


    The same ocean-like Blood Qi surged, and her crimson Blood Qi didn¡¯t lose by much to Zhou Feng.


    After reconstructing his physical body, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi had increased by an unknown amount. In addition, his passive Second Heart had increased his reserves to a monstrous level.


    Yet, Wu Shuhua was not much weaker than him. This was the most terrifying part.


    The two parties clashed head-on.


    Just the shockwaves from the collision caused a layer of land to rise up on the surrounding ground.


    This huge battle wave instantly alerted the nearby Jade Lake disciples!

 Chapter 467 - The Wife Who Delivered Herself to His Doorstep?

    ¡°So powerful!¡±


    Zhou Feng raised an eyebrow as he could sense Wu Shuhua¡¯s powerful physical body during their head-on clash.


    Moreover, he confirmed that Wu Shuhua¡¯s cultivation technique definitely had something to do with the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    Although it wasn¡¯t the original Emperor Coiling Scripture, it was definitely an improvement based on the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    Also, Wu Shuhua¡¯s physique wasn¡¯t ordinary either.


    Zhou Feng silently calculated the time. There was still some time left for him to play around.


    It was just the right time to test the newly acquired passive Immovable Mountain.


    As such, he stood still, and the earth¡¯s essence flowed from beneath his feet and enveloped his entire body.


    When Wu Shuhua saw this, her surging Blood Qi became violent, and she exuded a primitive and barbaric aura.


    She then threw a punch and a kick, the simplest moves.


    .


    When the punch and kick landed, the shockwaves uprooted nearby trees, and the rocks cracked.


    Zhou Feng did not move. He merely stood on the spot in a defensive stance.


    The passive Immovable Mountain¡¯s effect was perfectly displayed.


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s attack did not cause the slightest damage.


    ¡°Hmm?¡±


    Wu Shuhua also discovered the problem.


    Why did it suddenly seem like Zhou Feng was a different person?


    Previously, the difference in strength between the two sides was not that great, yet the gap widened in the blink of an eye?


    Now, Zhou Feng was like a mountain full of thorns.


    Every punch that Wu Shuhua threw not only did not cause much damage, but it would also cause backlash damage.


    The combination of the passive Body of Thorns and Immovable Mountain was truly formidable.


    ¡°As expected of the Human Emperor¡¯s successor! We can stop now!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was filled with fighting spirit, Wu Shuhua suddenly stopped.


    From her tone, one could guess that she had a lot of connections with the legendary Human Emperor.


    Zhou Feng lost the intention to continue fighting because the Jade Lake disciples were already on their way.


    If they continued to tangle, there would be a lot of trouble.


    ¡°Be careful of Fairy Dream Butterfly! And the Jade Lake Holy Land isn¡¯t that simple!¡±


    Wu Shuhua seemed to have changed into a different person. She actually cautioned him to be careful!?


    She was a Jade Lake disciple, and Zhou Feng was the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s enemy.


    What was the meaning of this?


    However, Wu Shuhua didn¡¯t explain too much. Instead, she let out an angry roar.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    This angry roar swept up the white clouds that covered tens of thousands of kilometers, stirring up countless sound waves.


    She wanted to send Zhou Feng away with one punch.


    If Zhou Feng was willing, he could put on a show with Wu Shuhua and use this opportunity to leave this place quickly.


    Although this punch looked powerful, it was just a show.


    ¡°What do you mean?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned and caught her fist steadily.


    Most of the force of this punch was weakened by the passive Immovable Mountain first and then by the passive Grownable Skin.


    Then there were all kinds of passive damage reductions.


    In the end, Zhou Feng did not spend much energy stopping this move.


    ¦©t was as if Zhou Feng blocked Wu Shuhua¡¯s full-strength attack without a change in expression.


    ¡°You! Why didn¡¯t you leave! Aren¡¯t you aware of your predicament?¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng had no intention of moving, Wu Shuhua became anxious.


    They were near Immortal Peach City, and apart from the Dragon Transformation Elders stationed here, the headquarters had dispatched a few Dragon Transformation Elders here.


    If Zhou Feng didn¡¯t leave earlier, it was very likely that a few Dragon Transformation Elders would besiege him.


    At that time, he wouldn¡¯t be able to escape even if he wanted to.


    ¡°Of course, I¡¯m aware of my predicament. I just want to ask if you¡¯ve cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture.¡±


    Wu Shuhua had piqued Zhou Feng¡¯s curiosity. They had never met before, so why was Wu Shuhua suddenly worried about his well-being?


    Also, he could sense traces of the Emperor Coiling Scripture from Wu Shuhua.


    Could the Northern Region¡¯¦Ò barbarians have something to do with the Human Emperors?


    Zhou Feng was still very curious about the Human Emperors.


    That was because his current cultivation techniques and divine abilities were all related to the Human Emperors.


    If Zhou Feng wanted to create his own cultivation techniques in the future, then the entire Emperor Coiling Scripture was vital to accomplish this.


    Creating cultivation techniques also required reference points, and the Emperor Coiling Scripture was the best reference model.


    ¡®Who knows? I might be able to obtain a method to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm from here!¡¯


    At this thought, Zhou Feng was suddenly not in a hurry to leave.


    ¡°You! Dammit! Follow me!¡±


    Wu Shuhua glared at Zhou Feng, who was not in a hurry at all. She gnashed her teeth and took out a large umbrella with a strange shape.


    This large umbrella enveloped them, and their auras immediately disappeared. This was the kind of pure disappearance without a trace.


    Wu Shuhua grabbed his hand and ran to a secret location.


    Zhou Feng sensed that Wu Shuhua didn¡¯t mean any harm, so he only frowned but didn¡¯t resist.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng calmly looked at Wu Shuhua, whose face betrayed her complicated feelings.


    ¡°Tell me.¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect to meet someone with pure Human Emperor bloodline in this place. Is this the heavenly will?¡±


    Wu Shuhua sighed slightly and then told him everything in a stiff tone.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s guess was right. The barbarians of the Northern Region indeed had a lot of connections with the Human Emperors.


    They were the former Human Emperors¡¯ descendants, and they had formed a tribe.


    With the fall of the last Human Emperor, the Human Emperor tribe, which used to be the number one force of the human race, fell apart.


    However, a small portion of them did not want the Human Emperor tribe to disappear just like that.


    After all, the Human Emperor tribe used to be extremely glorious. They had occupied the entire Central Plains and ruled over all the races.


    Therefore, the direct descendants of the Human Emperors began to lie low and wait for a new Human Emperor to appear. Then, they would regain their former glory.


    However, countless years had passed. Although there were occasional Human Emperor successors, a genuine Human Emperor had not emerged.


    In fact, countless forces hunted down the successors because no one wanted another Human Emperor to appear.


    In desperation, the Elders of the Human Emperor tribe changed their appearance and moved to the cold Northern Region.


    They called themselves the barbarians of the Northern Region and did not communicate with the outside world. They only wanted to preserve the pure Human Emperor bloodline.


    They even sent numerous mighty women to various places every year to search for the bloodline of the Human Emperor.


    As long as they found someone with the pure Human Emperor bloodline, these women would try to conceive a child with the one carrying the Human Emperor bloodline.


    Then, they would bring the baby back to the Northern Territory ancestral land to be nurtured, all in order to nurture a true Human Emperor.


    ¡°This¡­ No wonder! The last Human Emperor died so long ago, but the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny still exists!¡±


    Zhou Feng finally understood some things.


    The destiny of the Human Emperor seemed to have attached itself to him, but it left him in the end.


    3


    It turned out that there had always been a Human Emperor tribe in the Northern Region.


    Moreover, these old and young people had always wanted to nurture a real Human Emperor and restore the glory of the Human Emperor tribe.


    If what Wu Shuhua said was true, this could also explain why Wu Shuhua acted like this.


    ¡°Our tribe has a special connection to the Human Emperor bloodline. That¡¯s why I came to this place. When I first met you, I wasn¡¯t sure. Now, I¡¯m 100% certain!¡±


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s complicated gaze gradually became determined.


    ¡®Interesting¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not expect to encounter such a thing.


    ¡®Pure Human Emperor bloodline?¡¯


    He seemed to be an ordinary person before? It was just that he cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture, and then his body was reconstructed.


    It caused the weak Human Emperor bloodline to evolve. This should be considered an artificial Human Emperor bloodline!

 Chapter 468 - Karmic Curse

    ¡®Is there a flaw?¡¯


    Zhou Feng listened to Wu Shuhua¡¯s slow explanation while using his AI to deduce if there was anything wrong with it.


    What surprised him was Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s divination.


    There was actually no flaw in what Wu Shuhua said?


    Under the AI¡¯s optimization, Hexadirectional Calculation had completely deviated from the original version.


    The original Hexadirectional Calculation was only an incomplete version.


    It was very difficult for an ordinary person to comprehend its mysteries.


    However, Zhou Feng had the AI, and Hexadirectional Calculation was simply tailor-made for the AI.


    As his physical body had been successfully reconstructed, his soul also received a boost, and its strength was significantly enhanced,


    The enhancement of his soul also meant that the AI¡¯s computational ability was enhanced.


    .


    Under this series of effects, the AI optimized Hexadirectional Calculation almost every few days.


    In any case, if he was willing, he could avoid most of the dangerous situations.


    Even though the Jade Lake Holy Land was frantically searching for Zhou Feng, he was still strolling around leisurely. He was not in a hurry at all.


    It was because of the great confidence that the AI had given him.


    Now that the AI had not figured out any flaws, did that mean that what Wu Shuhua said was true?


    Zhou Feng looked at Wu Shuhua, who was already resigned to her fate, and asked, ¡°Why? Why didn¡¯t you keep any secrets from me? And this umbrella is¡­¡±


    She could have kept this a secret or simply pretended that she did not recognize the so-called Human Emperor bloodline.


    She could have directly shaken him and used the power of the Jade Lake Holy Land to kill him.


    There were all sorts of other options.


    However, Wu Shuhua had chosen to deal with him in this way. This was really puzzling.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s opinion, there was no love or hate in this world for no reason.


    There was a starting point for many things. He did not believe that someone would be so honest about an illusory goal.


    There were indeed people who were willing to sacrifice themselves, but there were definitely not many of them.


    ¡°That¡¯s because of the priestess¡¯ curse! As long as the bloodline of the barbarians runs in their bodies, no one can escape their destiny!¡±


    It seemed like Wu Shuhua really could not refuse to answer his question.


    That¡¯s right! After so many years, the barbarians of the Northern Region still dreamed of nurturing a Human Emperor.


    It was not for any other reason but because of a curse.


    Among the group of people who had led the Human Emperor tribe to move to the Northern Region, there had been an old priestess. This old priestess could be said to be the Grand Elder.


    She had been the third most powerful figure, and at the same time, she worshiped the Human Emperors the most fervently because the Human Emperors were comparable to gods back then.


    The Human Emperor tribe did not worship the heavens but the Human Emperor.


    That¡¯s right! The Human Emperor tribe offered sacrifices to the living Human Emperor.


    That was why after the Human Emperor tribe was torn apart, the old priestess had led the Human Emperors¡¯ direct descendants to move to the Northern Region.


    She then sacrificed herself to cast a vicious curse to entangle the bloodline.


    As long as someone had the barbarian¡¯s bloodline, they would have a mission: to restore the glory of the Human Emperor tribe.


    When facing someone with the pure Human Emperor bloodline, they had to obey unconditionally.


    It was a strange karmic curse that almost no one could escape from.


    ¡°And because the barbarians of the Northern Region have never intermarried with the outside world, our bloodline is also getting purer and purer, and the curse is also getting more and more terrifying!¡±


    A hint of humiliation appeared in Wu Shuhua¡¯s eyes because if Zhou Feng was willing, he could completely manipulate her at will. She did not have the slightest ability to resist.


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s bloodline curse¡¯s effect was still not obvious during their previous battle.


    But when Zhou Feng activated the Human Emperor Blood, her bloodline curse could no longer be suppressed.


    Every time she wanted to attack Zhou Feng, she would suffer the pain of 10,000 ants biting into her heart.


    It was funny. Although the barbarians¡¯ bloodline curse was getting stronger and stronger, the talents of the newly-born tribesmen were more and more terrifying.


    That was the power of the bloodline! After generations of purification, the bloodline power in the barbarians¡¯ bodies had almost reached the apogee of the Human Emperors¡¯ era.


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s current strength was proof of that!


    If Zhou Feng didn¡¯t use all his cheats and his reconstructed body, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to defeat Wu Shuhua.


    He might not have been able to defeat Wu Shuhua in the past.


    ¡°A curse? There¡¯s actually such a curse?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened.


    This curse could actually be passed down through the bloodline.


    What realm did he have to reach to be able to do this?


    At that moment, he believed 99% of Wu Shuhua¡¯s words.


    At the same time, he realized that the Human Emperor bloodline seemed to be a huge problem.


    If the news of Zhou Feng possessing a pure Human Emperor bloodline spread to the Northern Region, then the barbarians would definitely invite him back and force him to become the new Human Emperor.


    However, the various factions were unwilling to witness the emergence of a new Human Emperor.


    It was easy to imagine what would happen.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned.


    He didn¡¯t want to become a Human Emperor and offend a bunch of major forces for no reason.


    However, he had to cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    It was impossible to extract the Human Emperor bloodline directly. If he didn¡¯t want the Human Emperor bloodline, it would greatly weaken his strength.


    Moreover, the Human Emperor bloodline was not something that could be discarded just like that.


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng thought of a good idea. ¡°Let¡¯s work together.¡±


    ¡°Work together?¡±


    Wu Shuhua was already prepared to accept her fate. According to the introduction from her tribe, their ending would always be extremely tragic whenever they encountered a so-called successor of the Human Emperor.


    After all, when one person could suddenly control the life and death of another person, the dark side in their heart would crazily expand, especially when it came to a woman like Wu Shuhua.


    Putting aside her tough temperament and the armor on her body, no matter how one looked at it, Wu Shuhua was a beauty.


    Every man would inevitably have evil thoughts in their heart if they could control the life of a beautiful cultivator.


    Not to mention, an ordinary Human Emperor successor would often become arrogant after learning that he had the noble Human Emperor bloodline.


    ¡®I have the noble Human Emperor bloodline flowing in my body!¡¯


    Once this thought arose, it would also signify the birth of tragedy.


    However, what Wu Shuhua did not expect was that Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction was different from what the tribe had described.


    From his expression, it seemed like he was a little troubled? And also a little unhappy?


    1


    ¡°Yes, cooperate. I probably have a way to deal with this so-called curse.


    ¡°But before we cooperate, I have to test it out.¡±


    After saying that, Zhou Feng circulated his Great Void Primordial Qi, raised his hand, and¡­ punched Wu Shuhua¡¯s brow bone!


    Then, he threw one punch after another!


    Wu Shuhua was beaten until she vomited blood without any resistance, and a lot of her bones were broken.


    However, Zhou Feng did not show any expression on his face. Instead, he was even more ruthless!

 Chapter 469 - Cooperation!

    ¡°Aaah!¡±


    Wu Shuhua spat out another mouthful of blood as the anger in her heart leaped onto her face.


    Zhou Feng had clearly said that they would cooperate earlier, but why did he suddenly change to someone else!?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punches were even more vicious than before, and he was even targeting the joints of the crispy meat.


    It seemed like he wanted to beat Wu Shuhua to death.


    Wu Shuhua wanted to retaliate out of anger, but the power of the bloodline curse began to surge, and intense pain immediately overwhelmed her heart the moment she had this thought.


    This was the 1,000-year-old bloodline curse plaguing the Northern Region¡¯s barbarians!


    Once the other party possessed the pure Human Emperor bloodline, they wouldn¡¯t even have the chance to attack.


    A trace of sorrow appeared spontaneously.


    ¡°It seems it is indeed the truth. I¡¯m sorry. We don¡¯t know each other, so it was necessary to test you.¡±


    .


    When Zhou Feng saw this, the last trace of doubt in his heart was finally extinguished.


    That performance just now was definitely not fake.


    If he was willing, he could beat Wu Shuhua to death.


    This performance also proved that Wu Shuhua was not lying.


    There was no other way! Zhou Feng was the cautious type of person. He did not trust any strangers at all.


    Even Leng Maner and Li Rong had gone through some tests to gain his trust.


    If he did not confirm this before working together, the suspicion in his heart would grow.


    Thus, Zhou Feng gave Wu Shuhua a good thrashing.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s hair was disheveled, and her eyes were as sharp as a falcon¡¯s. She stared fixedly at Zhou Feng, and the hatred in her eyes could not be concealed.


    Wu Shuhua really wanted to curse out loud right now.


    ¡®Are you crazy!? If what I said before was not the truth, would I need to take such a huge risk to cover for you!?¡¯


    She was a Jade Lake disciple, so if news of her covering for Zhou Feng got out, she would be sentenced to death!


    At that time, other than returning to the Northern Region, there would be no other place for her to go.


    ¡°To be honest! I don¡¯t want to become a Human Emperor. Why don¡¯t we work together?


    ¡°Help me hide the news, and I¡¯ll help you solve that so-called curse. Also, I plan to go take a look at the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s headquarters¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng still acted according to his personality. He did not care about Wu Shuhua¡¯s reaction and directly expressed his thoughts.


    Why did he want to cooperate with Wu Shuhua?


    The reason was very simple. He did not want to become the so-called Human Emperor.


    To Zhou Feng, all he needed was time to develop.


    It was still the same saying. The longer he developed with the skill panel, the more terrifying he would become.


    There was no need for so many tricks.


    Furthermore, if he could cooperate with Wu Shuhua, he could obtain lots of common knowledge on cultivation through her.


    Zhou Feng was the one who lacked the most common knowledge on the path of cultivation.


    He had already made up for many of his flaws, such as his aptitude and cultivation techniques, so it was time to resolve a few minor flaws and shortcomings.


    Common sense and cultivation secrets were such shortcomings.


    This was because Zhou Feng had always cultivated alone. He didn¡¯t have a Master or a guide.


    Wu Shuhua was a Jade Lake disciple. She was very familiar with the Jade Lake Holy Land, so she could definitely do something.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t plan to leave the Southern Border just like that. Before leaving for the Eastern Land, he planned to give the Jade Lake Holy Land a hard time.


    The final reason was that after reconstructing his physical body, he had almost exhausted all of his cultivation resources.


    Now that he urgently needed to replenish his cultivation resources, the Jade Lake Holy Land naturally became his first target.


    ¡°You don¡¯t want to become the Human Emperor? And what makes you think that you can remove this curse!?¡±


    Wu Shuhua was a little surprised.


    The position of the Human Emperor was still a great temptation for most cultivators.


    It was especially so for vagabond cultivators like Zhou Feng, who did not have a powerful faction backing him.


    If he wanted to advance in the path of cultivation, it was a very good choice to become the Human Emperor successor in the Northern Region.


    After all, just by relying on the Human Emperor bloodline, Zhou Feng would be able to obtain a large number of resources from the barbarians.


    Obviously, Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts were different from those of ordinary cultivators.


    Then, he said that he wanted to solve the curse.


    Wu Shuhua felt that it was not feasible from the bottom of her heart.


    If the curse could be solved so easily, Wu Shuhua would not have traveled so far to the Southern Border.


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s mission was not only to find the pure Human Emperor bloodline but also to find a way to get rid of the bloodline curse.


    The world was so big, and there were so many cultivators. The barbarians believed that they could find a solution, but they had not encountered it yet.


    ¡°The solution is very simple. If you obtained the pure Human Emperor bloodline, won¡¯t the curse be negated?¡± Zhou Feng replied nonchalantly to Wu Shuhua¡¯s question.


    Since the curse was directed at the ordinary Human Emperor bloodline, then he would help her purify her bloodline.


    Wouldn¡¯t it be fine if she became the Human Empress?


    This thought popped up in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind the moment Wu Shuhua mentioned the curse.


    ¡°I¡¯ll have the Human Emperor bloodline¡­¡±


    Wu Shuhua was instantly stunned because it sounded very reasonable. The curse had been urging her to search for the pure Human Emperor bloodline.


    And as she grew older, the curse would be triggered from time to time.


    If she didn¡¯t find the pure Human Emperor bloodline to relieve the pain of the ants biting her heart, the curse would be triggered continuously.


    However, if she had the pure Human Emperor bloodline, the curse should no longer affect her!


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! Purifying the Human Emperor bloodline might sound simple, but it¡¯s impossible for me to have it!¡±


    After being stunned for a few seconds, Wu Shuhua immediately reacted.


    The pure Human Emperor bloodline was not something that could be obtained just like that.


    If she could possess the pure Human Emperor bloodline so easily, the Northern Region barbarians would not have sent so many people to search for it every year.


    ¡°Before today, I was still a mortal. My Human Emperor bloodline is extremely thin. Guess where my Human Emperor bloodline came from?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! You¡­¡±


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s first thought was that it was impossible.


    Could it be possible to purify the Human Emperor bloodline?


    In this era, the original version of the Emperor Coiling Scripture could no longer be cultivated. If one were to cultivate it forcefully, only death would be awaiting them.


    ¡°Believe it or not, it¡¯s up to you. Besides, you have no other choice but to cooperate with me.¡±


    Seeing that Wu Shuhua still had a look of disbelief on her face, Zhou Feng started to get impatient. He did not have so much time to waste here, so he threatened her.


    1


    Only then did Wu Shuhua realize that her life seemed to have been in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands the whole time.


    If she did not cooperate, there would be no other outcome but death.


    What was the point of thinking so much if that were the case?

 Chapter 470 - Snatching Away!

    After some negotiations, Zhou Feng and Wu Shuhua came to an agreement.


    He would help Wu Shuhua solve the problem of the curse, while she would help him hide the fact that he was a Human Emperor successor.


    Also, she told Zhou Feng everything she knew about cultivation and gave him all the information about the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    ¡°Chaotic Green Lotus?¡±


    During this process, Zhou Feng learned that the Jade Lake Holy Land had offered the Chaotic Green Lotus¡¯ descendants as a reward for his life.


    He had heard a lot about the Chaotic Green Lotus.


    Suddenly, an idea popped up in his mind.


    ¡®Why don¡¯t I use myself to receive the reward? If I do it right, I might be able to buy a Chaotic Green Lotus for free.¡¯


    Moreover, with the help of the Sky-Shielding Umbrella, his plan seemed to have an extremely high success rate.


    This so-called Sky-Shielding Umbrella was the big umbrella Wu Shuhua had previously taken out.


    .


    This umbrella was not the real Sky-Shielding Umbrella. The real Sky-Shielding Umbrella was once one of the connate numinous treasures of the past Human Emperors.


    The one in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand was only an imitation.


    However, even if it was an imitation, it had the function of shielding one¡¯s aura and reducing one¡¯s sense of presence.


    Wu Shuhua had managed to sneak into the Jade Lake Holy Land thanks to the Sky-Shielding Umbrella.


    However, this item had already become his.


    Wu Shuhua didn¡¯t have any objections to this. Now that her life was in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands, what could she do?


    Because of Wu Shuhua¡¯s appearance, Zhou Feng began to revise his previous plans.


    ¡­


    Jade Lake City was the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s core, and it was also the place that countless Jade Lake disciples dreamed of.


    This place had the densest Spiritual Qi, the most cultivation techniques, and the guidance from top-tier experts.


    In the past, Jade Lake City was considered a paradise on earth.


    But now, the atmosphere here was heavy.


    ¡°What? Zhou Feng was caught?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! How could this thief be caught so easily?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Even a Dragon Transformation Elder died at his hands. How could he fall at the hands of a vagabond cultivator!?¡±


    ¡°Although I don¡¯t believe it either, the fact is that this piece of news has been confirmed.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Jade Lake disciples had a look of disbelief on their faces at this moment.


    A vagabond cultivator had actually captured Zhou Feng alive!


    Although many people had been belittling Zhou Feng, most of them knew in their hearts just how abnormal Zhou Feng was.


    Just that proud battle record alone spoke for itself.


    He had escaped from the hands of two Dragon Transformation Elders and even killed another Dragon Transformation Elder.


    Although Elder Yu was old and frail, she wasn¡¯t someone that ordinary Divine Ability cultivators could scam.


    And now, an unknown vagabond cultivator jumped out and captured Zhou Feng alive?


    This was simply unacceptable!


    ¡°What¡¯s the point of saying so much now? If this is true, then that person will definitely come back to collect the reward.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! And if this is true, it can also be considered a good thing.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It¡¯s a good thing that this scourge is gone!¡±


    Although they said so, the Jade Lake disciples were still muttering in their hearts, ¡®What¡¯s going on!? Why have so many powerful vagabond cultivators suddenly appeared during this period?¡¯


    They had actually suppressed the three great holy lands.


    Zhou Feng had been captured! News of this matter had spread throughout the three great holy lands.


    Moreover, the vagabond cultivator who had captured Zhou Feng had also requested the Jade Lake Holy Land to hand over the blue lotus. He would hand over Zhou Feng upon receiving the blue lotus at a designated location, the Two Peaks, a canyon between two mountains within the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s territory.


    Naturally, the Jade Lake Holy Land agreed to this request.


    As long as they could capture Zhou Feng, a mere blue lotus was nothing.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land and Zhou Feng had formed a blood feud.


    In addition, Zhou Feng had many secrets. It would be a huge profit if they were to use a blue lotus to exchange for him. The only thing worth thinking about was whether there was a trap.


    After all, a vagabond cultivator had suddenly appeared. Not only was he powerful, but he was also able to capture a fierce person like Zhou Feng alive.


    Something wasn¡¯t quite right.


    When did vagabond cultivators become so powerful!?


    If all vagabond cultivators were so powerful, then why did they need the three holy lands?


    ¡°No?¡±


    ¡°No! I¡¯ve already calculated it! There¡¯s no such thing as a genius vagabond cultivator!¡±


    ¡°Although this kid has some skills and can guard against mystical techniques, he¡¯s still a bit too inexperienced.¡±


    ¡°In other words, this kid is acting on his own?¡±


    ¡°It should be like this! Is he trying to get a blue lotus?¡±


    Naturally, the Jade Lake bigshots wouldn¡¯t believe it so easily.


    For this, they even hired a cultivator who specialized in mystical techniques and divinated whether this was true or not.


    Because Zhou Feng had the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth and the help of the AI, he constantly changed his information.


    As a result, it was very difficult for mystical techniques to work on Zhou Feng.


    However, this time, the Jade Lake Holy Land didn¡¯t focus on Zhou Feng but the so-called vagabond cultivator who had captured Zhou Feng alive.


    They discovered with this simple divination that the so-called vagabond cultivator naturally didn¡¯t exist.


    This was just Zhou Feng acting on his own.


    ¡°How dare he! After offending my Jade Lake Holy Land, it¡¯d be fine if he didn¡¯t immediately flee, but he dared to come back and try to pull a fast one on us?¡±


    ¡°This time, he won¡¯t escape from our grasp!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Jade Lake Holy Land believed that they had seen through Zhou Feng¡¯s plan.


    They also mobilized five Dragon Transformation Elders to head to Twin Peaks.


    They could not afford to lose this time!


    If the Jade Lake Holy Land failed again, the others would think that they were easy to bully.


    They absolutely couldn¡¯t give any more chances to Zhou Feng, who had been jumping around like a mouse.


    However, all of this was in Zhou Feng¡¯s plan.


    In fact, he had long guessed that they would see through this self-directed and self-staged plan.


    Because this was the power of big data!


    The AI had used Hexadirectional Calculation to divinate countless times, and in the end, it had calculated that they would see through his plan.


    Therefore, he might as well go with the flow.


    He was going to beat them at their own game!


    When the five Dragon Transformation Jade Lake Elders left Jade Lake City, Zhou Feng held the Sky-Shielding Umbrella and swaggered into Jade Lake City.


    Thanks to the token Wu Shuhua had given him, no Jade Lake disciples suspected him at all.


    Who would have thought that a core disciple like Wu Shuhua would be a turncoat?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart skipped a beat with Wu Shuhua¡¯s disciple token in hand and the help of the Sky-Shielding Umbrella.


    He reached the lotus pond with almost no effort.


    He saw that the lotus pond was filled with all kinds of lotus flowers.


    Although most of them were in the form of flower buds, there were still a few green lotuses that were in the mature stage and could be plucked directly.


    ¡®There are no Dao Enlightenment cultivators in the three great holy lands. This news is too crucial!¡±¡®


    At the thought of this, Zhou Feng could not help but reveal a trace of excitement on his face.


    He slowly put away the Sky-Shielding Umbrella and waved his hand.


    He then smashed through a protective shield and snatched a green lotus under everyone¡¯s watchful eyes.

 Chapter 471 - What kind of Monster?

    There wasn¡¯t a single cultivator in the Dao Enlightenment realm among the three great holy lands.


    This was the most crucial piece of information that Zhou Feng obtained from Wu Shuhua.


    This meant that even the strongest Jade Lake expert, the Holy Lord, was a 9th Cycle Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    Originally, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have that much courage.


    His initial goal was to stir up trouble in Jade Lake City, but Zhou Feng¡¯s heart began to stir instead upon learning there were no Dao Enlightenment cultivators.


    Given the strength of his reconstructed body, a Dragon Transformation expert could not cause much harm to him.


    Therefore, he directly chose to take away a green lotus in front of everyone.


    ¡°Ah?¡±


    ¡°Who are you!?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were extremely natural and smooth, so the Jade Lake disciple who was watching by the side was astonished. He even stupidly asked who he was.


    .


    Actually, it wasn¡¯t strange that this Jade Lake disciple would behave like this.


    It was because no one had ever done this before.


    Snatching a direct descendant of the Chaotic Green Lotus in Jade Lake City? Would someone really do such a stupid thing!?


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Zhou Feng was extremely polite.


    1


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    ¡°You thief! How dare you be so arrogant!?¡±


    The Jade Lake disciple was still in a daze, but the Dragon Transformation Elder guarding the pon couldn¡¯t sit still.


    Wei Yan¡¯s face revealed traces of anger.


    Someone directly made a move here and snatched Jade Lake City¡¯s green lotus?


    Was he crazy?


    Not only was Jade Lake City protected by a great formation, but there were also countless Jade Lake disciples stationed there.


    Moreover, those who could enter Jade Lake City had to have a disciple token. How did this person manage to sneak in?


    However, no matter how furious Wei Yan was, Zhou Feng had already succeeded. He was still running out of the city.


    ¡°Catch this thief!¡±


    In an instant, Jade Lake City was in chaos.


    Countless Jade Lake disciples started to move.


    Who would have thought that someone would dare to come to the headquarters and behave atrociously? Were they sure they weren¡¯t here to court death?


    Facing the siege of countless people, Zhou Feng was very calm. He was only fleeing outside while dodging the attacks from behind.


    There were also a few beans that were scattered without anyone noticing.


    Zhou Feng had almost exhausted the dao soldiers from before, so he had refined a new batch of dao soldiers.


    These newly refined dao soldiers were different from the previous void soldiers.


    The newly refined dao soldiers were refined using the earth¡¯s essence.


    This was due to Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Immovable Mountain. He discovered that as long as he stood still, he could continuously absorb the earth¡¯s essence for his own use.


    Wasn¡¯t this f*cking equivalent to an infinite resource?


    1


    In any case, the earth¡¯s essence was almost endless and existed in the Earth Veins.


    However, it was difficult for ordinary cultivators to use it. Even if they had the ability to use the earth¡¯s essence, it was tough to absorb a small strand of the earth¡¯s essence.


    Once one mobilized it, there would be an almost endless supply.


    The earth¡¯s essence was like the ocean on a piece of paper. Once you pierced a hole in the paper, the endless earth¡¯s essence would drown you.


    Only Zhou Feng, who had the passive Immovable Mountain, was able to use the earth¡¯s essence to refine dao soldiers.


    With almost endless earth¡¯s essence, he naturally did not hold back.


    He refined over 100 earth soldiers in one go.


    Although these earth soldiers moved slowly, their outer shells were formed from the condensation of the earth¡¯s essence.


    Therefore, their defense was extremely strong, and their attacks were astonishingly powerful.


    A single earth soldier might be toyed with, but ordinary Divine Ability cultivators would not have many ways to deal with them if these earth soldiers formed a battle formation.


    ¡°A mere blue lotus? I wouldn¡¯t be satisfied so easily!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was carefree as he charged out of Jade Lake City with starlight under his feet.


    ¡°Chase him!¡±


    ¡°This person is Zhou Feng? Am I seeing things!?¡±


    ¡°What? Is this person Zhou Feng? Then who is the person at Twin Peaks!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng had not changed his identity, so everyone immediately recognized him.


    A lot of people were confused. Since Feng appeared here, who was at Twin Peaks?


    The Jade Lake Holy Land had dispatched five Elders to capture a fake Zhou Feng!?


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape! Five Elements: Fire Escape!¡±


    Wei Yan heard that it was Zhou Feng who snatched the green lotus, so she demonstrated her skills.


    The Five Elements! This was the top-level divine ability of the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    It was also one of the 36 Great Divine Abilities.


    However, this Five Elements Ability was incomplete. The Jade Lake Holy Land only had two of the five elements, water and fire.


    Even so, it could still make countless cultivators drool.


    Wei Yan¡¯s entire body turned into a ball of fire.


    The Five Elements Ability was divided into five elemental dao arts and five elemental escape arts!


    1


    Right now, Wei Yan was using the Fire Escape Art.


    The Fire Escape Art gave a great boost to speed, even greater than Zhou Feng¡¯s Starseizer Steps.


    6


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    At the instant Zhou Feng frowned, a ball of fire directly crashed into him.


    The scorching fire was like the sun¡¯s fire pouring down from the nine heavens.


    More than half of Zhou Feng¡¯s clothes were burned.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fist smashed down, and Wei Yan also returned to her original state, directly exchanging fists.


    ¡°Hmph! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng actually dared to retaliate, Wei Yan was naturally full of confidence.


    After all, she was a 2nd Cycle Dragon Transformation expert.


    In terms of the physical body, she could absolutely crush Zhou Feng.


    Compared to the Divine Ability realm, the Dragon Transformation realm was much clearer in the classification of levels.


    The Dragon Transformation realm was divided into a total of nine small cycles. Every time the physical body transformed, one would complete a transformation cycle and become stronger.


    If one could complete nine transformation cycles and reach the peak, they could try to comprehend the world¡¯s laws.


    They could choose a great Dao and let their body completely dissolve into the great Dao.


    If they succeeded, they could become a Dao Enlightenment powerhouse and have the qualifications to establish a sect.


    The three great holy lands could dominate for so long because their ancestors had reached the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Unfortunately, because the entire Southern Border was getting weaker and weaker, coupled with the three great holy lands sealing off cultivation resources and cultivation techniques, the strongest experts of the three great holy lands were only as the 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm.


    There wasn¡¯t even a Dao Enlightenment cultivator.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s golden Blood Qi instantly suppressed Wei Yan when the two fists collided.


    The shockwave from the collision spread in all directions, and the rushing Jade Lake disciples¡¯ ears and noses started bleeding from the impact.


    ¡°Aaah!¡±


    Wei Yan let out a blood-curdling scream. In this exchange¡­. she had actually been completely crushed!?


    That¡¯s right! She lost in this exchange, and Zhou Feng¡¯s raw power wreaked havoc in her entire body.


    ¡°What kind of monster is this!?¡±


    Wei Yan¡¯s face was ashen as she was sent flying backward.


    Moreover, she discovered that Zhou Feng was not injured at all. The skin on his body was like white jade.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng had forcefully withstood the impact of the Fire Escape Art.


    Although the flames were inferior to the sun¡¯s flames, using one¡¯s physical body to withstand it was equivalent to courting death.

 Chapter 472 - Powerlessness

    ¡°This is the physical body of a Dragon Transformation cultivator?¡±


    Zhou Feng had used the Great Void Primordial Qi to form a set of armor that completely enveloped his body.


    Actually, he did not expect this either.


    Just in terms of his physical body, Wei Yan, a Dragon Transformation cultivator, was actually inferior to him.


    It seemed that Wu Shuhua¡¯s physical body was an exception.


    It could also explain the power of the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    Every part of Zhou Feng¡¯s reconstructed body had been tempered countless times.


    The blood in his body had completely turned from red to golden Human Emperor Blood.


    Even his bones were affected.


    Even so, he still felt that the potential of this body had not reached its full potential.


    If he wanted to bring out its full potential, he had to use the Malevolent Earth Qi to force his body into a desperate situation.


    One had to bring out the last bit of potential.


    Pan Huang!


    As expected of the first Human Emperor in history who had swept through thousands of races just by relying on his physical body.


    ¡°What should we do?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Jade Lake disciples who had chased after Wei Yan witnessed the scene just now.


    They were instantly stunned! Some of them even swallowed their saliva and did not dare to take another step forward.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch had sent a Dragon Transformation Elder flying?


    What kind of ghost story was this?


    Wasn¡¯t Zhou Feng only a Divine Ability cultivator?


    The various versions that they had heard before depicted Zhou Feng as someone who would cover his head and scurry away like a mouse when he faced a Dragon Transformation Elder.


    But now it seemed like something wasn¡¯t right!


    ¡°You guys aren¡¯t making a move yet¡±?


    Wei Yan¡¯s face was livid as she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth.


    She had been careless and had lost face in front of the disciples.


    She had to admit that Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was a little terrifying, but what era was this?


    Who could he defeat by just relying on his physical body?


    Wei Yan used an extremely short amount of time to adjust her state of mind.


    ¡°Bean Soldiers!¡±


    Zhou Feng casually threw out a handful of beans.


    Immediately, 50 earth soldiers appeared out of thin air and blocked those Jade Lake disciples.


    ¡®Chance!¡¯


    Just as he used the Bean Soldiers Ability, Wei Yan once again turned into a ball of flames.


    Then, countless flame lotuses descended from the sky.


    Boom!


    Zhou Feng stood in place and didn¡¯t move. He simply threw a punch forward.


    In that instant, the wind from his punch directly scattered countless flames.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng was actually so arrogant, Wei Yan naturally wouldn¡¯t let go of this excellent opportunity.


    A few drops of ink-colored mystic water appeared out of thin air.


    Then, the flames that filled the sky came into contact with the mystic water.


    In the next second, a shocking explosion seemed to be about to blast open the sky, as if even the mountain peak was about to collapse.


    ¡°He didn¡¯t die!?¡±


    A trace of solemnity suddenly crawled onto Wei Yan¡¯s face.


    The dust dispersed, and Zhou Feng stood on the spot unscathed.


    ¡®As expected. After breaking through to the Dragon Transformation, the power of the divine abilities increases a lot¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng suppressed the slightly chaotic Blood Qi in his body.


    The passive Immovable Mountain, coupled with the Adaptive Shell and the other passive skill, allowed Zhou Feng to withstand the attack forcefully.


    Moreover, the consumption wasn¡¯t big, and the earth¡¯s essence was constantly being replenished under his feet.


    ¡°Why!?¡±


    Wei Yan¡¯s teeth were about to break as she looked at Zhou Feng, who was unharmed.


    Although she did not show any surprise on her face, she was already unnerved. She could not understand what kind of monster the person in front of her was.


    That move just now could be considered Wei Yan¡¯s trump card. It directly made use of the incompatible characteristics of water and fire.


    Once, Wei Yan had used this move to turn a genius who challenged her into dust.


    However, when facing Zhou Feng, not only was it useless, but Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need to use any strength to block it.


    Could a Divine Ability cultivator possess such power!?


    ¡°What kind of puppet is this!¡±


    ¡°Save me!¡±


    ¡°The defense of these puppets is too high!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Wei Yan, a Dragon Transformation Jade lake Elder, was defeated by Zhou Feng.


    The Jade Lake disciples were also badly injured by Zhou Feng¡¯s earth soldiers.


    These earth soldiers all had a layer of armor condensed from the earth¡¯s essence on their bodies.


    As long as they got close to these earth soldiers, gravity would affect them, and even their movements would be slowed down.


    An ordinary Divine Ability disciple was actually unable to defeat an earth soldier!


    Sometimes, they even needed to support each other in order to stabilize their positions barely.


    In the eyes of many Jade Lake disciples, this was simply an absurd matter.


    ¡®I can¡¯t even defeat a puppet that Zhou Feng casually released?¡¯


    This thought arose in the hearts of many Jade Lake disciples.


    Although they knew before that there was definitely a huge gap between them and Zhou Feng, they had never thought that the gap was actually so huge.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng seemed to have been cultivating alone.


    Without the guidance of a Master and without sufficient cultivation resources, could one really cultivate to this extent?


    This huge psychological blow directly made countless Jade Lake disciples feel somewhat disheartened.


    However, some of the Jade Lake disciples had a good mentality. After all, even Wei Yan, a Dragon Transformation Elder, couldn¡¯t defeat Zhou Feng.


    Wasn¡¯t it very normal that they couldn¡¯t beat Zhou Feng?


    ¡­


    Just as Zhou Feng pulled away the attention of countless Jade Lake disciples, the earth soldiers that he had left behind began to move.


    These earth soldiers immediately began to plunder on the spot!


    In any case, anything with Spiritual Qi was stuffed into their storage rings.


    This kind of behavior could be described as scraping the ground.


    During this process, many people wanted to resist.


    But in the end, they discovered that they actually didn¡¯t have the ability to fight against these strange puppets?


    Where did these puppets come from?


    Why were they so strong?


    Where were the elite disciples of the sect? Where were the Elders?


    Where did they run off to?


    ¡­


    ¡°What! Something¡¯s wrong with the headquarters!¡±


    Wei Yan suddenly realized that the headquarters had issued an alarm.


    ¡®Someone took this opportunity to infiltrate the headquarters?¡¯


    At this time, no matter how stupid Wei Yan was, she still reacted.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land had fallen for Zhou Feng¡¯s deep schemes from the start.


    ¡°Hey, let¡¯s continue.¡±


    Zhou Feng was still the same. After being bombarded by Wei Yan, his body was still not injured at all.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Wei Yan looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s calm face and was so depressed that she wanted to vomit blood.


    Powerlessness!


    A sense of powerlessness actually filled Wei Yan¡¯s entire body.


    ¡®What kind of divine ability is this? Why is he able to borrow earth¡¯s essence!?


    ¡®As long as this thief is able to borrow the earth¡¯s essence, there¡¯s no way I can defeat him!¡¯


    After this period of probing, Wei Yan finally understood why Zhou Feng could withstand her attacks.


    It was because of the endless earth¡¯s essence.


    Wei Yan found that Zhou Feng could borrow the earth¡¯s essence, and her attacks would be weakened by 25%.


    Then, taking into account Zhou Feng¡¯s abnormal body, Wei Yan believed that no one could harm Zhou Feng.

 Chapter 473 - I Advise You not to Chase after Me"

    Wei Yan couldn¡¯t accept it at this moment.


    She had exhausted all her abilities, yet she couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng.


    The one cultivating the Five Elements Ability needed to cultivate the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Finally, the five elements would become one.


    Therefore, it was tough to cultivate it, and it also required a high level of talent.


    This resulted in Wei Yan not cultivating any other divine arts but only this incomplete Five Elements Ability.


    As a result, she did not have many attacking methods.


    In fact, most cultivators wouldn¡¯t choose to cultivate many divine abilities at once.


    Only those geniuses who were extremely talented and full of energy would choose to cultivate many divine abilities.


    It was very common to cultivate one divine ability.


    If Wei Yan had a wood-elemental divine ability, she would be able to counter Zhou Feng¡¯s earth shell.


    .


    She wouldn¡¯t be so powerless.


    Unfortunately, there were no ifs.


    ¡®Eh? Have they reacted?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly predicted that a looming crisis would await him if he continued to stay here.


    Without a doubt, the higher-ups of the Jade Lake Holy Land had reacted.


    The main forces that he had temporarily tricked should be rushing back!


    It was better to leave first! The harvest from this operation wasn¡¯t small either.


    As such, the earth soldiers in Jade Lake City gathered all their storage rings together.


    Then, with the help of the AI, Zhou Feng calculated the safest location and other factors.


    Apart from one earth soldier with a storage ring, the rest of the earth soldiers self-destructed at the first possible moment.


    The self-detonation was equivalent to that of a Divine Ability cultivator, and it instantly blew up half of Jade Lake City.


    The entire Jade Lake City felt as if the earth and the mountains were shaking for a moment.


    This directly astonished many Jade lake disciples who were in closed-door cultivation.


    ¡°What happened? Someone invaded the sect?¡±


    With the help of the power generated by the self-detonation, the only remaining earth soldier instantly broke through the Jade Lake City¡¯s grand formation.


    Actually, this was Zhou Feng¡¯s grand plan from the very beginning.


    Although the earth soldiers were effective at first, they lost their edge later on.


    After all, Jade Lake City was the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s headquarters.


    With a large number of genius disciples and the protection of the grand formation, just a few earth soldiers wouldn¡¯t be able to cause much of a stir.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng had planned to sacrifice most of the earth soldiers, and then another earth soldier would take out what they had snatched.


    ¡°You! You have an accomplice!?¡±


    When Wei Yan heard the commotion in Jade Lake City, her heart instantly thumped.


    This was because, from all the previous intelligence reports, Zhou Feng was a lone wolf.


    He did not have many friends, but from the current situation, this thief seemed to have an accomplice now. Furthermore, he actually dared to cause trouble in Jade Lake City.


    The difficulty of dealing with a lone wolf and a group of people could be said to be heaven and earth.


    This was especially so for Zhou Feng, the leader. His strength was so terrifying that it could even be described as monstrous.


    ¡°Accomplice?¡±


    Zhou Feng knew that this was a misunderstanding, but he did not explain too much.


    The AI¡¯s calculations were accurate, and an arm flew directly from Jade Lake City to Zhou Feng.


    He reached out and grabbed the arm that was full of storage rings.


    ¡°Goodbye then! I hope we can meet again next time!¡±


    With the items in hand, Zhou Feng¡¯s tone was very casual.


    It was as if he was saying goodbye to Wei Yan after coming to Jade Lake City as a guest.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Seeing how Zhou Feng could come and go as he pleased, Wei Yan was once again furious.


    As an Elder of the Jade Lake Holy Land, she was already used to that kind of respectful gaze.


    It was natural for her to be respectful and reserved towards others.


    But at this moment, she suddenly met Zhou Feng¡¯s expression, which showed that he didn¡¯t put her in his eyes.


    2


    Wei Yan found it hard to accept.


    This was also the current situation of the three great holy lands. Due to the fact that they had been in a closed environment all year round, they rarely communicated with the outside world.


    This had already caused the three great holy lands to become rigid gradually. It was only a matter of time before this kind of power started to decline.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Zhou Feng was extremely calm as he circulated the Starseizer Steps with all his might.


    ¡°Stop joking!¡±


    The veins on Wei Yan¡¯s face bulged as she immediately wanted to give chase.


    ¡®I absolutely can not let this thief escape! If I let this thief escape, then won¡¯t I lose all my face?¡¯


    Wei Yan had just taken her first step and was about to chase after Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng suddenly gathered all of his Blood Qi and Great Void Primordial Qi to form a long spear. There was even a trace of soul power attached to this long spear.


    These three types of power fused perfectly under the subtle control of the AI.


    He hurled it out with all his might!


    The spear was lightning fast, making no sound at all.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Wei Yan was shocked, and a green lotus appeared before her heart.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land had a pool of green lotuses.


    As an Elder, Wei Yan naturally had a green lotus to protect her body.


    Moreover, this green lotus was nourished by the two laws of water and fire all year round.


    It had already nurtured red and blue lotus petals. The next step was to transform into a connate numinous treasure.


    Although it was an extremely difficult thing to transform into a connate numinous treasure, this green lotus with endless potential was instantly penetrated.


    This long spear seemed to possess a silent power of annihilation.


    ¡°How is this possible!?¡±


    Under Wei Yan¡¯s shocked gaze, this long spear turned into a special form of energy and fused into her body.


    She could only crazily suppress that special energy right now.


    Wei Yan wore a shocked gaze as if it was saying, ¡°He actually has the ability to kill me!?¡±


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s defensive ability was so shocking that even a Dragon Transformation cultivator like Wei Yan felt a trace of powerlessness in her heart, he still had a weakness, such as not being able to move.


    He could only passively defend and so on.


    Therefore, although Zhou Feng was stronger than an ordinary Divine Ability cultivator in Wei Yan¡¯s heart, it was only on the defensive level.


    It was almost impossible to hurt her.


    However, reality slapped her face hard.


    ¡°I advise you not to chase after me. Otherwise, people will really die!¡±


    After throwing this spear, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire spirit and energy had obviously decreased by a bit.


    But in those calm words, there was a killing intent that caused one¡¯s back to turn cold.


    At that moment, a Jade Lake disciple who had just gotten rid of the earth soldier took half a step forward.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes instantly became sharp.


    A longbow appeared, and he drew the bow to shoot a void arrow!


    The void arrow, coupled with the passive bonus of Piercing Yang, pierced through his heart!


    That Divine Ability Jade Lake disciple died just like that.


    There wasn¡¯t even the slightest time to react! There wasn¡¯t even a surprised expression on his face!


    The vitality in his entire body was obliterated.


    Zhou Feng gave Wei Yan another look without a word.


    Then, he disappeared from everyone¡¯s sight.


    ¡°Isn¡¯t he also a Divine Ability cultivator? Why¡­¡±


    Even though Zhou Feng had already left, the Jade Lake disciples who witnessed the scene just now were all silent.


    Each and every one of them kept quiet out of fear¡ªonly one of the braver ones voiced out the doubts in his heart.


    This was f*cking unreasonable! They were both in the Divine Ability realm, yet Zhou Feng could kill Divine Ability cultivators as simply as slaughtering chickens and dogs.


    He could even fight head-on with the Dragon Transformation Elers without being at a disadvantage.


    But what about them? Even if they were freaks, there had to be a limit!

 Chapter 474 - Fairy Dream Butterfly Taking off her Clothes!?

    ¡°It¡¯s easier than I thought!¡±


    Zhou Feng restrained his aura, lifted the Sky-Shielding Umbrella, and walked lightly toward his next destination.


    To be honest, this mission was easier than he thought.


    The entire process was rather calm.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land, which looked like an intimidating beast, was just like a paper tiger before him,


    He directly snatched away a green lotus and a pile of cultivation resources and even escaped.


    ¡°But¡­ Why is there still a sense of danger?¡±


    Zhou Feng held the Sky-Shielding Umbrella and carefully sensed his surroundings.


    From the beginning, that faint sense of danger made him feel a little uneasy.


    Logically speaking, no one should have been able to find his whereabouts.


    .


    ¡®With the existence of the Sky-Shielding Umbrella, even ordinary techniques shouldn¡¯t be able to predict my position.


    ¡®In other words, someone had been following me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change as he silently calculated in his heart.


    Suddenly, a few dream butterflies appeared in front of him.


    Along with the appearance of these dream butterflies, there was also the sound of a woman playing.


    The scene in front of his eyes changed in an instant.


    A refreshing fragrance of flowers arose spontaneously.


    A woman wearing a veil seemed to have descended from the sky. She gently swayed her slender waist, and her clear eyes seemed to convey a sense of affection.


    ¡°Fairy Dream Butterfly?¡±


    Zhou Feng recognized the woman in front of him in an instant as he had encountered her a few days ago.


    She was also the strongest person among the younger generation of the Jade Lake Holy Land. He even suspected that this Fairy Dream Butterfly was more powerful than an ordinary Dragon Transformation Elder.


    The short exchange earlier had left quite a deep impression on him.


    ¡®How could she suddenly appear here?¡¯


    The one who had been following him just now was this so-called Fairy Dream Butterfly?


    For some unknown reason, Zhou Feng stood there in a daze. His attention was focused on Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    This was absolutely impossible in the past.


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s temper, whoever dared to play tricks in front of him would receive his punch.


    But at this moment, he just stood there and watched the Fairy Dream Butterfly twist her graceful body.


    Fairy Dream Butterfly hummed an unknown tune while taking off her clothes.


    That¡¯s right! She was taking off her clothes.


    This process was extremely slow, and the number of dream butterflies in the surroundings also increased.


    The first thing was the veil. From the moment he met Fairy Dream Butterfly, Zhou Feng had never seen her true appearance.


    Now, he could finally see her beautiful face.


    ¡®A somewhat blurry face?¡¯


    Zhou Feng could see countless familiar features on this face. Her features were a little like the female action stars of his previous life.


    However, there was no denying that this was the most beautiful face in his heart.


    The lover of his dreams? Perhaps it could be described in this way.


    ¡®AI?¡¯


    The more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He subconsciously called out to the AI.


    Even though it had not been long since he had obtained the passive Bio AI, Zhou Feng was already used to the AI¡¯s existence. The feeling of being able to analyze everything in a second was extremely wonderful.


    However, there was no response this time.


    ¡®Dream? Illusion?¡¯


    At that moment, he was immediately jolted awake.


    If it were in reality, the AI would definitely give him feedback.


    However, there was actually no feedback at all.


    Zhou Feng immediately understood that he had fallen into an illusion or something similar.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    The moment he understood, his first thought was to break out of this illusion.


    The surrounding environment started to crack, and the number of dream butterflies instantly decreased.


    But at that moment, Fairy Dream Butterfly slowly revealed her shoulder.


    ¡®Wait a moment! Wait a moment before breaking out of this illusion!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly had a voice in his heart.


    This was a huge benefit. As long as he stayed in this illusion for a second, he would be able to see the erotic scene.


    The person in front of him was the number one beauty of the Jade Lake Holy Land and the dream fairy of countless cultivators.


    This seductive voice continuously bewitched Zhou Feng, asking him to stay for a while longer.


    In any case, he knew that this was only an illusion, and it would only take a moment for him to leave.


    All kinds of reasons kept emerging from the bottom of his heart.


    No matter how firm his mind was, it would still waver for a moment in the face of such a situation because these reasons were all very sufficient.


    However, all of this was just a beautiful dream constructed by Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    As long as one hesitated or was persuaded, all kinds of reasons would keep appearing.


    It would make them linger in this illusion.


    This was the top divine ability that Fairy Dream Butterfly cultivated, the Dream Transformation Ability.


    It could directly construct an illusory dream and make people sink into it.


    Moreover, if a beautiful woman used this divine ability, it would have a huge boost.


    What was even more terrifying was that if it were used by a renowned woman who could topple countries and cities and didn¡¯t have the slightest bit of gossip, the effect would be even more terrifying.


    This was because it would directly satisfy all the fantasies in the hearts of all men.


    ¡°The goddess has taken a liking to her own extraordinariness, but she wants to stick close to me no matter what.


    ¡°Although I want to reject her, I really can¡¯t.¡±


    Although this sounded ridiculous, it was the desire in the hearts of countless men.


    As long as one was still a human, they wouldn¡¯t be able to get rid of this desire.


    Outside¡­


    ¡°One body and two souls?¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s entire body was still tightly wrapped. Only her graceful figure that was slightly revealed exuded half of her charm.


    However, Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s eyes were a little solemn at this moment.


    Zhou Feng had clearly fallen into her dream, but he was still able to fight.


    It was as if there was a second person in this body.


    It was also because of this that she mentioned ¡®two souls in one body¡¯.


    Two souls in one body was an extremely rare case. It was only recorded in some ancient books.


    Two souls sharing a body. Not only was their strength far beyond that of ordinary people, but they could also fight together in battle.


    One person controlled the body while the other attacked the soul.


    It was simply unsolvable!


    Soon, Fairy Dream Butterfly realized that something was wrong.


    Although Zhou Feng was unable to defend and attack, he looked on guard.


    This was more like the body¡¯s instinct!


    If that were the case, it would be even more ridiculous!


    His soul was trapped in a dream, but his body was still able to fight against her based on instinct.


    Moreover, they were evenly matched.


    What was most troublesome for Fairy Dream Butterfly was that it was tough to cultivate Dream Transformation.


    She didn¡¯t cultivate any other divine abilities simultaneously, and she didn¡¯t even have any extra methods.


    After all, she only relied on Dream Transformation to construct the dream realm. In her previous battles, she had practically been invincible.


    Who knew how many cultivators had been struck in it out of nowhere?


    Then, they died in their beautiful dreams with smiles on their faces.


    This was the first time Fairy Dream Butterfly had encountered such a situation with Zhou Feng.


    ¡°It¡¯s¡­ such a pity!¡±


    There was a trace of pity in Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s eyes.


    She could only summon the Elders.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s secret wouldn¡¯t belong to her.


    She had been hiding for so long and had paid a huge price to make Zhou Feng fall into a dream.


    Wasn¡¯t it all for Zhou Feng¡¯s secrets?


    Even if Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any secrets, he still had a connate numinous treasure.


    Fairy Dream Butterfly knew that the Chaotian Sword of the Cold Wind mountain range had fallen into Zhou Feng¡¯s hands.


    But it was still a bit difficult for her to take it all by herself.


    4

 Chapter 475 - Brutal Slaughter!

    ¡°Die!¡±


    Just as Fairy Dream Butterfly was about to call for help from the sect, Zhou Feng instantly woke up.


    It had only taken him less than 30 seconds to break the dream.


    Even so, he still had a lingering fear. He had unknowingly fallen into a dream, and there had been no signs at all.


    If it weren¡¯t for his special circumstances¡ª the AI could act as a substitute and help him control his body¡ªhe would probably have died after losing consciousness.


    The Dao of Illusions!


    This was a field that he had never seen or studied before.


    Even if he was on guard, he would easily fall into a trap when faced with these unfamiliar things.


    It seemed that the storage of knowledge was really important.


    After this, he had to extract more cultivation knowledge from Wu Shuhua.


    Moreover, he had to record everything down, no matter how big or small it was.


    ¡°So fast?¡±


    When Fairy Dream Butterfly saw that Zhou Feng had woken up, she was a little surprised.


    This sobriety speed showed how powerful Zhou Feng¡¯s state of mind was.


    He completely ignored his body¡¯s desires.


    But even so, it didn¡¯t matter. Fairy Dream Butterfly had already informed the holy land through the dream butterflies.


    It shouldn¡¯t be long before the Elders and the Holy Lord came together.


    Dream Transformation technique was a divine ability that had an extremely strong life-saving ability in addition to constructing dreams. It could turn reality into nothingness at any time and place, turning an attack or one¡¯s own body into a dream.


    Then, it would return to reality from a dream.


    With such an ability, Fairy Dream Butterfly was practically invincible.


    The only thing she was afraid of was soul attacks.


    However, Fairy Dream Butterfly possessed countless dao items that protected the soul.


    This was the true strength of the Jade Lake Holy Maiden.


    Golden Blood Qi burst into the sky.


    Zhou Feng, who was truly angry, did not care about anything else. The Blood Qi and Great Void Primordial Qi erupted and merged at the same time.


    He directly simulated the scene of a tsunami pouring down.


    The Invincible Avatar also appeared at the first moment. That domineering aura that looked down on the world suppressed everything around him.


    ¡°You can¡¯t hurt me!¡±


    When Fairy Dream Butterfly faced this scene that looked like a natural disaster, she only lightly left a sentence.


    Her entire body turned into the dream butterfly once again and disappeared on the spot.


    ¡°Soul Punch!¡±


    Zhou Feng directly squeezed out all of his power.


    This kind of attack from the soul forced Fairy Dream Butterfly to return to reality from the dream.


    However, Fairy Dream Butterfly still maintained her elegant posture.


    Her body shone with no less than five kinds of lights.


    These were all dao and spiritual artifacts that could resist soul attacks.


    They were of good and bad quality, and they enveloped Fairy Dream Butterfly tightly.


    Even the clothes on Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s body seemed to be a spiritual weapon. No matter what, it wrapped every inch of her body.


    ¡°Hmph! Is it useful to wrap it so tightly? I saw everything in the dream!¡±


    Because he couldn¡¯t find a flaw, Zhou Feng started to talk for the time being. It was a rare occasion.


    He wanted to use this to anger Fairy Dream Butterfly so that she would show a flaw.


    ¡°Oh? You¡¯re at the end of your rope? I heard that you don¡¯t like to talk nonsense during battle!


    ¡°You always aim to kill with a single strike!¡±


    The coldness that Fairy Dream Butterfly had maintained all this while disappeared.


    Not only did she not care about what Zhou Feng said, but there was even a hint of teasing in her tone.


    It was as if she had suddenly transformed from an ice mountain goddess into an extremely seductive and flirtatious young woman.


    The transformation of his temperament was smooth and didn¡¯t seem excessive at all.


    ¡°Don¡¯t think that the people of the Jade Lake Holy Land can save you.¡±


    After knowing that infuriating her wouldn¡¯t work, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression returned to normal, and he only threw out a sentence.


    Then, a sea formed from golden Blood Qi appeared.


    Zhou Feng stood on the spot, and his eyes emitted a dazzling divine light.


    The sea formed from the golden Blood Qi seemed to materialize at this moment, like a violent wind sweeping up a thousand piles of snow.


    The rumbling sound of the waves was endless.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly looked at the endless golden sea. Although she had once again transformed into a dream butterfly and merged into the dream world, she immediately understood Zhou Feng¡¯s intentions.


    The situation did not seem as optimistic as she had imagined.


    In fact, Zhou Feng¡¯s tactic was very simple.


    Can¡¯t you transform into a dream butterfly and hide in the dream world from reality?


    Then I¡¯ll use a full-scale bombardment and let you stay in the dream world!


    He didn¡¯t believe that merging from reality into the dream world didn¡¯t consume anything.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s tactic could be described with one word: consume!


    ¡®Let¡¯s see whose endurance is stronger!¡¯


    From the perspective of others, if it was a protracted battle, then Fairy Dream Butterfly should have the advantage.


    After all, Fairy Dream Butterfly wasn¡¯t fighting alone. She had a holy land behind her.


    At present, the people of the Jade Lake Holy Land were rushing over.


    As long as she stalled, Zhou Feng would lose without a doubt.


    However, the actual situation needed to be analyzed.


    What if Fairy Dream Butterfly couldn¡¯t even last 30 seconds?


    In addition to using his Blood Qi to cover the sky, Zhou Feng also tried his best to use his Invincible Avatar to the maximum.


    Because he had almost never lost during this period, his avatar had been greatly strengthened.


    Finally, Zhou Feng was near the place where Fairy Dream Butterfly disappeared.


    He kept using the Soul Punch in order to interfere with Fairy Dream Butterfly in the dream.


    According to the AI¡¯s calculation, Fairy Dream Butterfly merged into the dream from reality, so she must have left a coordinate or something in reality.


    Otherwise, it would not be so easy to return to reality from the dream.


    If that were the case, then he should try to destroy the invisible coordinate.


    In the end, Zhou Feng let the AI use Hexadirectional Calculation to divinate if it was correct.


    Obviously, this proved that Zhou Feng¡¯s method was not wrong.


    Facing Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy attack, Fairy Dream Butterfly felt that the situation was not in her hands for the first time.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s prediction was extremely accurate!


    Fairy Dream Butterfly transformed from reality into a dream butterfly and entered the dream world, which consumed a lot of her spiritual power and physical strength.


    Although she had accumulated a lot of spiritual power, she could not stay in the dream world forever.


    If she stayed in the dream world for too long, it was very easy for her to really dissolve into the dream world, and she would not be able to distinguish between reality and the dream world.


    Furthermore, she would leave a coordinate on the spot when she transformed into a dream butterfly and left reality and entered the dream world.


    This coordinate was the trace of aura that Fairy Dream Butterfly had left in the real world. If this aura trace dissipated, she wouldn¡¯t be able to return.


    10 seconds!


    Just 10 seconds!


    Fairy Dream Butterfly was forced to return to the real world from the dream.


    And the moment she appeared, the violent Blood Qi drowned her.


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    But just as Zhou Feng succeeded in forcing Fairy Dream Butterfly out of the dream, a rather dignified voice resounded through the clouds.


    The Jade Lake Holy Lord had arrived!


    The Jade Lake Holy Lord sensed that Fairy Dream Butterfly might be in danger, so he immediately rushed to the scene of the battle.


    The only consolation for Zhou Feng was that the Jade Lake Holy Lord¡¯s voice arrived. He still needed some time to arrive in person.


    And this bit of time gave Zhou Feng the chance to kill Fairy Dream Butterfly!

 Chapter 476 - Petrified!

    ¡°I said don¡¯t count on others to save you!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Fairy Dream Butterfly, who was forced out of the dream realm and completely ignored the rushing Jade Lake Holy Lord.


    He punched out.


    That wild force was like a huge mountain pressing down on Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s head.


    A trace of panic appeared in Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s eyes.


    How could the situation have gone out of control in an instant?


    The advantage had always been on her side, and even the Jade Lake Holy Lord would arrive ahead of time.


    But the aura of death had already begun to entangle Fairy Dream Butterfly.


    Although she was a little flustered, Fairy Dream Butterfly was still extremely calm.


    She crushed an amulet, and a light screen blocked Zhou Feng.


    .


    However, in the next instant, this light screen shattered with a sound.


    ¡°You dare!¡±


    The Jade Lake Holy Lord clapped his hands.


    This palm directly absorbed all the surrounding vitality, and the surrounding flowers and trees suddenly withered.


    Samsara Palm of Life and Death, this was the top divine ability the Jade Lake Holy Lord had mastered.


    One hand to give life, one hand to give death.


    Although the Jade Lake Holy Lord¡¯s name had not appeared for many years, he was undoubtedly the prodigy with the greatest chance to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm among the older generation of the three great holy lands.


    Still, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care what happened behind him.


    The second punch was as fast as lightning.


    Another cracking sound echoed. This time it came from Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s colorful glazed clothes.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s furious punch destroyed this protective spiritual artifact as well.


    ¡®No wonder she is the Jade Lake Holy Maiden. She has many life-saving treasures.¡¯


    Seeing that she had blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s two attacks, Fairy Dream Butterfly suddenly let out a sigh of relief because the Jade Lake Holy Lord¡¯s attack had already arrived.


    1


    If Zhou Feng chose to take this attack head-on, he would be drained of his life force!


    Also, if Zhou Feng made up his mind to exchange injuries for injuries, Fairy Dream Butterfly wouldn¡¯t be afraid.


    She still had one last life-saving trump card, which could block a peak-level Divine Ability attack.


    ¡°But why¡­¡±


    No matter how she looked at it, Fairy Dream Butterfly felt that she would definitely win.


    However, there was a feeling that made her very uneasy.


    Unfortunately, she didn¡¯t have time to think about it.


    Zhou Feng threw out a few beans.


    ¡°Self-destruct!¡±


    These were the earth soldiers that he had left. The other earth soldiers had already been used up, but this was enough!


    Zhou Feng was now using this batch of earth soldiers as grenades.


    Moreover, they were self-destructing at close range.


    Zhou Feng himself was within the self-destruction range.


    He was hit in the back by a palm strike. Instantly, it was as if all the life force in his body was about to be forcibly taken away.


    The AI¡¯s computational ability was fully activated. It assisted Zhou Feng in locking his pores and forcibly locking his Blood Qi and life force within his body.


    A super-big explosion occurred between Fairy Dream Butterfly and Zhou Feng in the next second.


    In her panic, Fairy Dream Butterfly used her last life-saving item.


    Attention!


    At present, Zhou Feng was still maintaining a monstrous sea of blood, suppressing Fairy Dream Butterfly and not allowing her to enter the dream realm.


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was withered at this moment. His originally smooth skin had become wrinkled, and his eyes looked dull.


    This was the result of overexerting his vitality and soul power.


    Nonetheless, Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s fate was sealed.


    A long spear concealed from the beginning flew from a strange direction and pierced straight into Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s chest!


    ¡°Why is this!?¡±


    Fairy Dream Butterfly¡¯s face betrayed traces of confusion as she looked at the long spear in her chest.


    She was a little confused. How did Zhou Feng accomplish this?


    Everything had been planned very well, whether it was the backup plan or the main plan.


    Fairy Dream Butterfly had been under the impression that nothing could go wrong. Zhou Feng should pose no threat to her with her Dream Transformation.


    But who would have thought that Zhou Feng, the fiend, had such sharp battle instincts?


    Not only did he instantly see through her divine ability¡¯s weakness, but his Blood Qi and soul power were so vast and powerful.


    He used his own Blood Qi directly and turned it into a sea of blood to cover the surrounding area.


    Was this still the feat of a human? To be honest, this was a little ridiculous!


    At that moment, Fairy Dream Butterfly felt that her entire body was weak, and she almost fainted.


    This was because the long spear was condensed from Great Void Primordial QI, and it had been compressed countless times.


    As soon as it pierced through her chest, the force of destruction began to destroy her life force.


    ¡°Dream Butterfly!¡±


    The next second, the Jade Lake Holy Lord grabbed onto her body.


    He immediately tried to heal her, but it was too late.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    The Jade Lake Holy Lord, an old fox that had been cultivating for many years, could not suppress the fury in his heart as he witnessed the most outstanding seedling of the holy land losing her life.


    The Jade Lake Holy Lord raised his head, looked at where Zhou Feng was, and cried out involuntarily, ¡°What!?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s haggard appearance had disappeared, and his face was recovering at speed visible to the naked eye.


    At the same time, he kept stuffing all kinds of spirit peaches into his mouth.


    Previously, in the eyes of the Jade Lake Holy Lord, it was almost impossible for him to recover from his injuries.


    How could he know that the Level-2 Gluttony turned all the spirit peaches that Zhou Feng swallowed into various nutrients and Blood Qi? Or that he had the passive Fast Healing and Tenacious Heart?


    This caused Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries to recover lightning fast.


    And this was also the reason the Jade Lake Holy Lord cried out involuntarily.


    Even he, a 9th Cycle Dragon Transformation expert, was unable to achieve such a monstrous level of recovery.


    Although the Jade Lake Holy Lord could regrow a severed arm, the speed was definitely not that fast.


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Zhou Feng took out the Sky-Shielding Umbrella and quickly retreated far away.


    2


    At this time, the sun was hanging high in the sky, and the passive Daylight Combat was triggered, increasing his speed by 10 points.


    Then there were the passive Gale Steps.


    Only the Jade Lake Holy Lord could keep up with his fleeing speed, but he didn¡¯t dare to give chase.


    Firstly, he was shocked by Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying performance.


    Secondly, he was afraid that this was another of Zhou Feng¡¯s distraction tactics to lure the tiger away from the mountain. The prestige of the Jade Lake Holy Land would fall to the bottom if that were to happen.


    Although Jade Lake Holy Lord didn¡¯t want to admit it, he knew that the Jade Lake Holy Land was about to bow its head.


    Zhou Feng, this fiend, was an abnormal individual.


    Furthermore, he plotted against them time and time again without any regard for his life.


    If this were to continue, the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s business and prestige would be affected, and they would definitely be at a disadvantage.


    Even the Jade Lake Holy Lord didn¡¯t have the confidence to restrain Zhou Feng.


    If Zhou Feng went to some remote cities of the Jade Lake Holy Land to cause trouble, the holy land would really be helpless.


    After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s evasive abilities were nearly at their maximum capacity, and he was still a lone wolf. He had nothing to worry about.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng, who had fled thousands of miles away, came to a place with his Sky-Shielding Umbrella.


    He was prepared to meet Wu Shuhua.


    He had previously promised her that he would help her cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture as long as he settled the matter with the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    He would let Wu Shuhua have the pure Human Emperor bloodline and break the curse!

 Chapter 477 - Passive: Talent Plundering!

    While Zhou Feng was waiting for Wu Shuhua, he organized his spoils of war.


    First, he had naturally snatched the green lotus.


    ¡°Is this the Chaotic Green Lotus¡¯ direct descendant?¡±


    He took the green lotus out of his storage ring.


    This was a small lotus. It felt a little cold to the touch, but it actually felt a little like a soft crystal.


    It seemed that the Spiritual Qi was very restrained because it had just matured.


    After a bit of Spiritual Qi was injected, the entire green lotus flower began to activate slightly.


    This was a perfect artifact-refining embryo.


    In the future, he only needed to nourish it on his Soul Altar continuously, and then it could slowly grow.


    From a spiritual artifact to a connate numinous treasure.


    .


    The core Jade Lake disciples basically had one each.


    Moreover, it was said that there was a special method that could speed up the green lotus¡¯ nurturing process.


    ¡°Wu Shuhua should know it¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng placed the green lotus on his Soul Altar and began to nurture it slowly.


    No matter what, this was still a breakthrough.


    He finally had a defensive spiritual artifact.


    It wasn¡¯t easy!


    Zhou Feng had reconstructed his body, reforged his aptitude, created his own demonic technique, and obtained a defensive spiritual artifact with the potential to evolve.


    It had taken a lot of time to take each step.


    Now that Zhou Feng was out of the darkest of times, he was not only fully capable of self-preservation, but his actions could also influence the Southern Border.


    He was extremely satisfied with this outcome.


    ¡°And then there¡¯s the new passive skill!¡±


    Zhou Feng opened the skill panel, and sure enough, the progress bar was full.


    The destiny power obtained by killing Fairy Dream Butterfly directly filled the progress bar.


    This meant that there was a new passive that could be obtained.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Talent Plundering: You will receive a certain amount of cultivation talent for every opponent you kill.


    [Note: The cultivation talent is divided into physical talent and soul talent.]


    Originally, Zhou Feng thought this would be an extremely common new passive skill because he had obtained all sorts of heaven-defying passive skills during this short period.


    According to the conservation of luck, the passive skill shouldn¡¯t be too good this time.


    1


    Among his many passive skills, quite a portion of passive skills were used to make up the numbers.


    The passive skills that truly improved Zhou Feng would always be that part.


    But when he took a look, he realized that something was wrong.


    Wait! Stealing cultivation talent!?¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s heart began to beat wildly.


    After confirming that he wasn¡¯t hallucinating, he took a few deep breaths before he calmed down.


    ¡®Dammit! Directly stealing talent? And without any restrictions?¡¯


    Zhou Feng found it hard to hide the joy on his face.


    If he had obtained this passive skill in the beginning¡­


    Fortunately, it wasn¡¯t too late to showcase its might now. With this passive skill, he could get rid of the predicament of not having a good aptitude.


    And the further he went, the more terrifying it became.


    ¡°Restrain! You must restrain!¡±


    The image of a massacre flashed through Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    There were no restrictions, so he could steal a portion of the other party¡¯s cultivation talent as long as he killed them.


    Therefore, his first thought was to directly kill and pile up his cultivation talent to the limit.


    But soon, he suppressed the dark side in his heart.


    This passive skill could steal a certain percentage of the target¡¯s cultivation talent.


    Simply put, the higher the target¡¯s cultivation talent, the better Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude would become.


    If he attacked some mortals whose cultivation talent wasn¡¯t that good, he would steal a certain percentage of their natural endowments. The returns would definitely be very low.


    Moreover, if he killed too many people, he would really become a devil.


    It would be very easy to attract countless people to surround and suppress him at that time.


    In the end, the gains would not make up for the losses.


    The best plan should be to hunt down those so-called prodigies specifically.


    Those prodigies were freaks! Weren¡¯t their natural endowments heaven-defying? Once the base number was high enough, his aptitude would skyrocket.


    ¡°I can¡¯t do it here in the Southern Border. I have to find those true monsters. Only in this way can I steal enough cultivation talent.¡±


    3


    Zhou Feng was even more determined to leave the Southern Border now.


    The more he advanced, the more he discovered that the cultivation circle in the Southern Border was lifeless.


    It looked like a cluster of flowers from the surface, but the roots were rotten.


    This environment couldn¡¯t nurture a true dragon at all.


    Even the so-called Jade Lake Holy Lord couldn¡¯t do anything to him.


    In the end, this pond was too shallow, so he had to change to a bigger pond.


    The new passive skill made Zhou Feng start to replan his cultivation path.


    ¡°Oh? You¡¯re here?¡±


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng¡¯s ears twitched.


    It was Wu Shuhua.


    Speaking of which, Wu Shuhua took this opportunity to leave the Jade Lake Sacred Land.


    After all, to Wu Shuhua, joining the Jade Lake Holy Land was just to avoid the tribe¡¯s mission.


    The Jade Lake Holy Land was still a little inferior to the Northern Region barbarian tribe¡¯s inheritance.


    Now, the appearance of Zhou Feng, the Human Emperor¡¯s successor, forced Wu Shuhua to complete the mission.


    The curse hidden in her bloodline constantly urged Wu Shuhua to complete the mission!


    Therefore, Wu Shuhua couldn¡¯t pretend that she hadn¡¯t seen Zhou Feng.


    In the end, she could only take the opportunity to leave the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t appear immediately when he noticed that Wu Shuhua had arrived.


    Instead, he held the Sky-Shielding Umbrella and hid at the side. After confirming that there was no one else, he slowly walked out of the shadows.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    When they met again, Wu Shuhua¡¯s current appearance surprised him.


    Before this, Wu Shuhua always wore battle armor and had a determined expression on her face.


    But now, Wu Shuhua¡¯s battle armor had been removed, and she was wearing a slightly thin dress. Her eyes and brows seemed a little gentle as well.


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s body was tall, to begin with, and the clothes she was wearing now perfectly displayed her mature body.


    Even her temperament had changed. If it was said that she was a valiant woman in the past, then she now exuded a charming and mature temperament.


    ¡°Can we begin?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly and asked impatiently while he had the AI continuously use Hexadirectional Calculation.


    Was Wu Shuhua going to make a move on him?


    No!


    The divination result was extremely mediocre. There was neither good nor bad news.


    This was the result of several consecutive calculations.


    This made him slightly relaxed.


    ¡°Alright. Let¡¯s begin. I¡¯d like to know how you¡¯re going to let me cultivate the Emperor Coiling Scripture!¡±


    The moment Wu Shuhua opened her mouth, her tone was still as sonorous as before.


    For some reason, Zhou Feng felt a little relaxed.


    As mentioned earlier, in order for Wu Shuhua to get rid of the so-called curse, all she needed to do was to have the pure Human Emperor bloodline.


    This seemed very simple to Zhou Feng because he didn¡¯t have the so-called pure Human Emperor bloodline.


    There was only a very thin trace of the Human Emperor bloodline in his body, and the reason it had become like this was that he had cultivated the optimized Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    The Emperor Coiling Scripture could continuously purify the Human Emperor Blood in one¡¯s body.


    The only difficulty now was allowing Wu Shuhua to cultivate the optimized Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    This problem was nothing with the help of the AI.

 Chapter 478 - F*ck! Drugged with Aphrodisiacs!

    Why couldn¡¯t the original Emperor Coiling Scripture be cultivated?


    One of the most important reasons was that the environment wasn¡¯t suitable.


    Simply put, the Emperor Coiling Scripture was a very detailed cultivation technique. Its main purpose was to stimulate the physical body¡¯s potential in an extreme environment.


    Using the Malevolent Earth Qi to cultivate was one of the principles.


    When a person was in an extreme environment, they would erupt with power that they shouldn¡¯t have.


    The core of the Emperor Coiling Scripture was here. It constantly created an extreme environment and stimulated the body.


    In the end, the body would break through one bottleneck after another.


    That was what Emperor Pan had done. He had used his raw power to destroy the bottlenecks and crazily broke through all the way until he became the legendary Human Emperor.


    But the problem was that not everyone had Emperor Pan¡¯s unparalleled talent.


    Emperor Pan could constantly break through his limit, and his physical body was not affected at all. In fact, he had only been getting stronger and stronger.


    .


    For normal people, cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture might cause irreversible and terrifying injuries to their physical bodies as soon as they started.


    After cultivating for a day, they would lie down for half a year to recover from their injuries.


    How were they supposed to cultivate?


    However, the AI had a way of avoiding this huge risk.


    This was because the AI could monitor the condition of the physical body at any time and then modify the cultivation technique at any time.


    Although Zhou Feng was cultivating the Emperor Coiling Scripture, it had already been modified beyond recognition.


    It was completely customized according to his physical body. Others couldn¡¯t cultivate it unless their physical condition was the same as his.


    ¡°Now, you mobilize your Blood Qi. I¡¯ll conduct a simple data collection.¡±


    Zhou Feng began to guide her expressionlessly.


    His plan was to get the AI to help Wu Shuhua modify the Emperor Coiling Scripture that was suitable for her cultivation.


    This way, Wu Shuhua would be able to continuously purify the Human Emperor Blood in her body and become the so-called Human Emperor successor.


    By then, the curse would naturally no longer exist!


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    Wu Shuhua did not waste any time and followed his instructions.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng took advantage of this opportunity to ask for more cultivation knowledge.


    From the most basic cultivation knowledge to what one needed to pay attention to when cultivating to the Divine Ability realm.


    It was very basic but important knowledge.


    This was because Zhou Feng had always cultivated alone and had no one to guide him. He took this opportunity to fill in the blanks.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng used the AI to help Wu Shuhua revise the Emperor Coiling Scripture that was suitable for her cultivation.


    At the same time, he quickly mended the holes created by the lack of cultivation knowledge.


    What was worth mentioning was that Wu Shuhua told him many secrets about the Jade Lake Holy Land during this process.


    There was also the method of nurturing the green lotus.


    As for divine abilities and the like, Wu Shuhua had not learned them.


    This was because cultivating the divine abilities of a sect was a very serious matter.


    It required a lot of testing. Even if she had learned the divine abilities of a sect, it would be very difficult for her to leak them out.


    Different sects had different ways of keeping divine abilities confidential.


    This made Zhou Feng somewhat disappointed.


    Three days later¡­


    After spending a full three days, Zhou Feng finally gave Wu Shuhua the optimized Emperor Coiling Scripture for her needs.


    Moreover, she was able to continuously purify the Human Emperor bloodline in her body.


    Compared to the thin Human Emperor bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body, the Human Emperor bloodline in Wu Shuhua¡¯s body was even denser.


    In just one day, the Human Emperor Blood was condensed.


    The curse in her body weakened instantly, which meant that Zhou Feng¡¯s speculation was correct.


    As long as the Human Emperor bloodline in Wu Shuhua¡¯s body was pure enough, the curse would be gone.


    ¡®It¡¯s about time¡­¡¯


    Seeing that Wu Shuhua had already condensed the Human Emperor Blood, Zhou Feng felt that it was about time to leave.


    For some reason, he had a feeling that something was wrong, but Hexadirectional Calculation didn¡¯t give such an outcome.


    His Body Instinct did not warn him that there was danger either.


    However, Zhou Feng just felt that something was wrong, and this unease seemed to be related to Wu Shuhua.


    That was why he decided to leave earlier.


    Zhou Feng had told Wu Shuhua that he needed to consolidate his strength today, but in reality, he was planning to escape tonight.


    Although he didn¡¯t pose any danger, it was still better for him to leave.


    He still believed in the so-called gut feeling.


    ¡°You want to escape? Unfortunately, it¡¯s too late. You¡¯ve already been affected by the Silver Dragon Fragrance!¡±


    Despite being so cautious, Wu Shuhua intercepted Zhou Feng.


    At that moment, Wu Shuhua was only wearing a thin gauze dress, and her body was faintly discernible.


    A very pleasant fragrance was constantly spreading out from her body.


    ¡°I¡¯ve been poisoned? Impossible!¡±


    Zhou Feng subconsciously clenched his fists and prepared to attack at the first moment.


    However, after examining his entire body, he realized that he was not poisoned at all.


    ¡°This is a spirit herb that is specially developed to target the Human Emperor bloodline. As long as you have the Human Emperor bloodline, you won¡¯t be able to avoid it.¡±


    Wu Shuhua¡¯s gaze was a little complicated at this moment.


    Actually, this was something that the barbarians had spent 100 years researching.


    They had created this to obtain more clansmen with pure Human Emperor bloodline.


    As mentioned earlier, the barbarians were what remained of the Human Emperor tribe. They wanted to restore the glory of the Human Emperor at all times.


    Therefore, their thirst for the Human Emperor bloodline was sick.


    For this reason, they had even sent countless clansmen to various places in order to meet the Human Emperor successors.


    For this reason, Wu Shuhua had come to the Southern Border and joined the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    Under normal circumstances, Wu Shuhua could not return to the tribe.


    Only if she met a Human Emperor successor and returned to the tribe together with his child could she return.


    If she returned to the tribe without fulfilling the above conditions, the worst outcome would be that she would become a reproductive slave.


    The best outcome would be that she would become the slave of many Human Emperor successors in their tribe.


    That¡¯s right!


    There were many Human Emperor successors within the barbarian tribe, all of them striving to become the legendary Human Emperor.


    Unfortunately, countless Human Emperor successors died every year.


    It was also because of this reason that Wu Shuhua calculated for a while and realized that it was better not to let off Zhou Feng.


    Apart from drawing out the body¡¯s instinctive desires, the Silver Dragon Fragrance could also greatly increase the chances of pregnancy.


    1


    Moreover, Zhou Feng could be considered a good partner from all aspects.


    He was strong enough, had a stellar battle record that showcased his potential, and had a certain bottom line!


    Wu Shuhua had overanalyzed Zhou Feng¡¯s deeds.


    He had a certain bottom line and was not a true devil.


    Just these two points alone had already surpassed countless people.


    If there was another reason, it would be that Zhou Feng was more pleasing to the eye.


    ¡°Silver Dragon Fragrance?¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly felt that something was wrong with his body.


    This was an aphrodisiac? He immediately understood.


    However, Wu Shuhua pounced at him and pinned him to the ground before he could react.


    Her huge mountain peaks instantly submerged his head.


    ¡°Ah!!¡± roared Zhou Feng.


    His blood rushed throughout his body like a torrent.


    Although the Silver Dragon Fragrance affected his body, he was not incapacitated.


    Wu Shu Hua was naturally unwilling to be outdone, and she suppressed him with her strong barbarian physique.


    Did you expect the intimate and wild scenes between a man and a woman?


    Ha! Fat chance!


    1


    They actually started throwing punches at each other while doing the deed!


    The two of them punched each other, and they took each punch head-on.


    There was no dodging at all! It all depended on whose physical body was strong enough! And all of them were aimed at the head!

 Chapter 479 - Still Alright! Not Pregnant!

    In this pure physical fight, Zhou Feng had the upper hand. After all, he had the passive Body Instinct and the AI¡¯s prediction ability.


    Wu Shuhua couldn¡¯t defeat him at all.


    Still, the situation seemed to be getting worse.


    The effect of the Silver Dragon Fragrance was constantly disturbing Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    In fact, the Silver Dragon Fragrance had been in effect ever since Wu Shuhua found out about Zhou Feng.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was comparable to a Dragon Transformation cultivator. Even without the passive Poison Immunity, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was now immune to most poisons.


    Not to mention that the AI was assisting Zhou Feng to fine-tune his physical body condition at all times.


    Therefore, the Silver Dragon Fragrance had taken a full three days to take effect fully.


    ¡°Good!¡±


    Wu Shuhua rammed her head into Zhou Feng¡¯s head and tore his clothes apart.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s upper body was completely naked.


    It was obvious that his actions suited Wu Shuhua¡¯s taste.


    1


    As a barbarian from the Northern Region, Wu Shuhua was actually quite straightforward.


    Furthermore, due to the principle of strength being the most important, there was nothing such as patriarchy in the Northern Region.


    As long as one was strong enough, they would be able to gain the right to speak.


    It was not uncommon for women to snatch men.


    There were even cases of several women snatching a prodigy together.


    Moreover, the barbarians practiced monogamy because the barbarian women were strong enough.


    If one wanted to take a concubine, the wife would have to die!


    As for the man who cheated, the woman would also clean up the family and remarry.


    If the woman cheated, it would be the same.


    The barbarians of the Northern Region were just that arrogant.


    Now, Wu Shuhua had taken a liking to Zhou Feng, so she went straight to the point.


    ¡°You think you¡¯re the only one who can do that? Do you think I¡¯ll be at a disadvantage?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s usually calm appearance changed, and his eyes were slightly red.


    He also tore off Wu Shuhua¡¯s clothes.


    ¡°Come on! Let me see what you can do!¡±


    Wu Shuhua decided to stop pretending. Previously, she was still pretending to be charming because she was afraid that Zhou Feng would refuse to comply. Now that she saw that he had the same intention, she naturally wanted to use force.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Zhou Feng snorted coldly and planned to give this woman a good beating.


    This woman probably didn¡¯t know what the Kama Sutra¡¯s 64 s*xual positions were!


    A night passed¡­


    Zhou Feng, who had just woken up, had never felt such pain before.


    When he recalled what had occurred the previous night, he felt a little numb.


    He had never expected that woman to be so powerful that she had almost squeezed him dry.


    Moreover, due to her height advantage, he was often buried under her mountain peaks and almost suffocated, and he was often suppressed.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    When Zhou Feng had the time to look around, he realized that he seemed to be inside a bottle?


    ¡°This is the grotto-heaven bottle. It can be used as a temporary cave abode.¡±


    Wu Shuhua was standing at the side, frowning as she stared at him.


    The so-called grotto-heaven bottle was a spiritual artifact refined by the barbarians of the Northern Region.


    It had an effect!


    Zhou Feng now knew that it could be used in emergencies in the wild. It could prevent others from taking advantage of the emergency situation.


    ¡°You¡­ What method did you use? Why isn¡¯t the Silver Dragon Fragrance working?¡±


    Wu Shuhua was a little puzzled. She did not know how Zhou Feng did it, but she was actually not pregnant!


    This was simply a miracle! One had to know that the Silver Dragon Fragrance had never failed!


    In order to continue the Human Emperor bloodline, the barbarians had spent 100 years of effort to create the Silver Dragon Fragrance.


    Furthermore, it was extremely troublesome to refine, and each female barbarian who went out could only have one bottle at most.


    ¡°Maybe it¡¯s a physique problem¡­¡±


    When Zhou Feng heard that she was not pregnant, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.


    If he had a child, it could be said to be an additional huge weakness in his path of cultivation.


    He did not seem to think about children at all.


    ¡®Should it be the passive Excellent Offspring?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly thought it was the effect of this passive skill.


    Excellent Offspring: Your success rate in producing offspring has decreased! However, your offspring has an extremely high chance of inheriting your natural endowments, innate divine abilities, and cultivation base!


    He had almost completely forgotten about this passive skill and didn¡¯t expect that he would help him now.


    ¡®A problem with his physique?¡¯


    Wu Shuhua recalled what the Grand Elder had said.


    The more heaven-defying one¡¯s physique was, the lower the chances of one having an heir.


    For example, the legendary Dao Constitution was so special that it was basically impossible to have an heir.


    Also, the stronger the cultivator, the lower the chance of having an heir.


    Such physiques often required some special spiritual items and a strong enough partner to have an heir successfully.


    It was very likely that Zhou Feng¡¯s constitution was too special and had caused the Silver Dragon Fragrance to lose its effect.


    ¡®The Grand Elder should definitely have a way to deal with this situation!¡¯


    Wu Shuhua looked at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°I¡¯m your woman now! So you can¡¯t sleep with other women. Also, you have to make a trip to the Northern Region! This is a map!¡±


    It was as if a tiger was declaring its sovereignty.


    Wu Shuhua gave him two orders.


    First, Zhou Feng could not find another woman.


    Second, he had to make a trip to the Northern Region in the future.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    3


    Zhou Feng did not say much. He just took the map and agreed.


    ¡°Remember! You must at least reach the Dao Enlightenment realm before you come! Otherwise, you will only become a slave!¡±


    Wu Shuhua gave him another order and turned around to leave.


    She did not have the excessive longing of an ordinary woman, nor did she drag things out. She was completely resolute.


    This made Zhou Feng hold back some of the words he wanted to say.


    ¡®Why do I feel like I¡¯ve been used?¡¯


    1


    As he watched Wu Shuhua walk out of the grotto-heaven bottle, Zhou Feng slowly returned to his usual state of mind.


    Actually, what Zhou Feng did not know was that Wu Shuhua had seen his expression when he heard that she was not pregnant.


    Wu Shuhua understood that he didn¡¯t want to be trapped by love.


    If she were to pester him, it would only destroy their relationship.


    She might as well be more carefree and leave a deep impression on Zhou Feng.


    This was called casting a long line to catch a big fish!


    When dealing with men, a woman had to relax and tighten her grip. She couldn¡¯t be too tight, and she also couldn¡¯t be too indulgent.


    2


    As for how to keep a man¡¯s heart, the barbarians of the Northern Region had received specialized training.


    Wu Shuhua had learned all this knowledge from her aunt back in her tribe.


    In fact, her original intention was to tie up a man who had the bloodline of the Human Emperor.


    However, Wu Shuhua did not have such thoughts. She had a feeling that Zhou Feng would definitely become a peerless genius who would enter the Northern Region in the future.


    He might even become the legendary Human Emperor.


    ¡°Perhaps! Only such a genius can change the situation of the tribe!¡±


    Wu Shuhua was a little upset when she thought about the current situation of the tribe.


    After so many years of inheritance, the Elders of the barbarian tribe had started to go crazy.


    Back then, her father had asked her to take the opportunity to leave the Northern Region and come to the Southern Border to seek refuge.


    She didn¡¯t know how the tribe was doing now.


    Wu Shuhua, who was a little upset, temporarily put the troubles of the tribe to one side.


    She then thought of Zhou Feng.


    ¡®I heard from my aunt that men have different feelings toward their first love. Zhou Feng, you can¡¯t escape from my grasp!¡¯


    When she thought of Zhou Feng¡¯s unfamiliar actions last night, the corners of Wu Shuhua¡¯s mouth slowly curled up.

 Chapter 480 - The Sea of Blood Trees

    With Wu Shuhua¡¯s departure, the soreness in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to subside.


    After resting for a while, he was also prepared to start a new journey.


    ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll take my revenge and head straight to the Eastern Land!¡±


    Zhou Feng was thinking of going to the Jade Sword Holy Land to snatch more resources before leaving the Southern Border.


    As for the Great Sun Holy Land, he was too lazy to go because they were a bit far away.


    Since he didn¡¯t have the ability to destroy the three holy lands directly, it was better to wait until his strength increased before returning!


    Zhou Feng would definitely return to the Southern Border.


    ¡­


    ¡°He left! That fiend really left!¡±


    ¡°I hope that monster won¡¯t return!¡±


    ¡°He probably won¡¯t return!¡±


    After learning that Zhou Feng had left the Southern Border, the upper echelons of the Jade Sword Holy Land heaved a sigh of relief.


    Before this, the Jade Sword Holy Land didn¡¯t think that Zhou Feng would have the guts to make a move against them.


    After all, Zhou Feng had already offended a holy land to the death. He shouldn¡¯t be so arrogant and still want to fight to the death with the Jade Sword Holy Land!


    And it was precisely because of this thought that the Jade Sword Holy Land ended up in a tragedy!


    Zhou Feng used the refined earth soldiers to wreak havoc in countless cities.


    Most of the cities in the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory had been destroyed.


    Only when Zhou Feng felt that it was about time did he leave with satisfaction.


    This time, the Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s losses were much worse than the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s.


    But there was really nothing they could do to Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng had learned his lesson this time and did not show his face at all. The entire time, it was the earth soldiers who took action.


    Each of these earth soldiers was equivalent to a Divine Ability cultivator.


    The Jade Sword Holy Land¡¯s territory was vast, so It was impossible to defend every single place.


    Bean Soldiers was indeed a top-tier divine ability.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding of Bean Soldiers was not deep enough, and he had not comprehended the Dao of Life or the Dao of Creation. If he could comprehend one of these, his dao soldiers might become even more powerful. They might even have their own consciousness and could cultivate.


    With a casual wave of his hand, countless dao soldiers would appear to protect him. This was Bean Soldiers¡¯ power.


    ¡­


    The Eastern Land! Other than the Central Plains, it had the most Spiritual Veins.


    It was also the place where all the races gathered. After the humans became the overlords, successive generations of Human Emperors continued to move people to the Central Plains, and the various races that had originally settled down in the Central Plains were forced to leave with their families.


    Then, they all gathered together in the Eastern Land to fight against the humans.


    Until now, humans had almost occupied all the regions.


    With no other choice, the demihumans and the other rare races, joined a 10,000-year-old family in the Eastern Land.


    This was how they managed to survive until now.


    As for the humans of the east, they had perfectly integrated with the demihumans and the other races.


    The east even had the idea of attacking the Central Plains.


    ¡®The gathering place of the various races?¡¯


    Zhou Feng carefully recalled the description of the Eastern Land.


    He was actually not very clear about other things.


    The only thing he knew about the east was that he could not discriminate against any demihuman.


    That was because the daemons in the Eastern Land basically had human blood.


    After countless years of integration, there were almost no purebred humans in the Eastern Land.


    All the humans had mixed daemonic blood or had marriages with other races.


    ¡°Why are the few large regions so isolated? There¡¯s almost no communication between them¡­¡±


    After carefully recalling some information about the Eastern Land, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but have some doubts.


    Why did the cultivators of these large regions not communicate as frequently as he had imagined?


    They didn¡¯t even have the intention to communicate. Every year, only a small number of merchant caravans were willing to cross over to the Southern Border.


    Why was this so?


    Logically speaking, the Southern Border should have many special resources that the Eastern Land shouldn¡¯t have.


    Many people would definitely choose to go back and forth in such a situation.


    After all, profit was the most direct motive.


    Zhou Feng felt that many things were not right.


    But because there was too little information, he could not make an accurate guess.


    He could only quietly travel.


    If he wanted to go from the Southern Border to the Eastern Land, according to the map he had gotten, he needed to pass through a place called the Sea of Blood Trees.


    The endless Sea of Blood Trees separated the Southern Border and the Eastern Land.


    The Blood Trees were a special kind of spirit tree. If they were watered with fresh blood, they could produce special spirit fruits.


    Moreover, once there were too many Blood Trees, a Tree King would be born. Generally speaking, Blood Tree Kings possessed extremely high intelligence.


    The Southern Border and the Eastern Land had so little communication partly because of the Sea of Blood Trees.


    ¡®It¡¯s really quiet¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not know how long he had been traveling. All he knew was that the surroundings had become increasingly quiet. Even the sounds of insects had disappeared.


    The trees in front of him had also changed.


    These trees were almost two meters tall. Their trunks were dark red, and the leaves at the top of the trees were too bright green.


    He also discovered that half of the roots of these trees were actually exposed to the air. The other half of the roots were buried deep in the soil.


    He silently used Hexadirectional Calculation and found that there was no big problem.


    Zhou Feng also did not hesitate and directly dived into the Sea of Blood Trees.


    Anyway, given his current strength, there should not be any accidents as long as he did not encounter a particularly abnormal thing. Even if there were accidents, there was a chance of rebirth.


    There was no need to be afraid.


    Also, taking advantage of his free time, he kept asking the AI to optimize all kinds of cultivation techniques, such as the Grand Demon-Devouring Art and the soul-searching technique.


    The soul-searching technique progressed quickly because he had caught a few demonic cultivators and a Ghost King back in the Cold Wind mountain range, and among them, he had obtained a technique similar to the soul-searching technique.


    Now that the AI had sorted it out, he had finally created a soul-searching technique with the lowest side effects.


    On the other hand, this Grand Demon-Devouring Art, which directly devoured the Blood Qi of others, was progressing somewhat slowly.


    Although this kind of demonic cultivation technique showed fast results, its side effects were equally terrifying.


    Zhou Feng had tried every means but could not get rid of the side effects.


    Therefore, this Grand Demon-Devouring Art could only be used to refine dao soldiers.


    Extracting the Blood Qi and flesh of the enemy and using them to refine dao soldiers was the only use of the Grand Demon-Devouring Art after it was improved.


    The dao soldiers that were refined using this method were also known as blood devil soldiers by Zhou Feng.


    These blood demon soldiers were surrounded by Blood Qi and had a very strong polluting nature. They could even absorb the Blood Qi and flesh of the enemy in battle to become stronger.


    However, the only drawback was that their lifespan was too short. In a few years at most, these blood demon soldiers would self-destruct.


    1


    They were not like other dao soldiers that could be constantly refined and strengthened.


    So far, Zhou Feng had three types of dao soldiers.


    They were the void soldiers refined by Great Void Primordial Qi, the earth soldiers refined with the earth¡¯s essence, and the blood demon soldiers refined through the Grand Demon-Devouring Art.


    Each dao soldier had its strengths and weaknesses. For example, the earth soldier¡¯s defense was strong enough, but it was not flexible enough.


    As for the blood demon soldier, although its attack was powerful enough, its defense was not that great.


    With these different dao soldiers, Zhou Feng felt that he could already study battle formations.


    When the time came, he would directly scatter them, and all the dao soldiers would deal with the enemy in a formation.


    That meant that Zhou Feng had another means.


    He could deal with more difficult situations now.

 Chapter 481 - Rabbit Daemon Bloodline?

    Because of the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation, Zhou Feng did not encounter any trouble during his journey through the Sea of Blood Trees.


    Even if he encountered any trouble, he would avoid it immediately.


    After rushing for another half a day, Zhou Feng was about to hand his body over to the AI to control while he pondered over his divine ability.


    ¡®There¡¯s someone!¡¯


    He felt that there were quite a number of people in front of him.


    Moreover, these people seemed to be rushing toward him at high speed.


    ¡®Someone is being chased?¡¯


    As the distance between them shortened, Zhou Feng could clearly feel that a group of people was chasing someone.


    Because it was really boring to rush, he immediately restrained his aura and hid on the crown of a Blood Tree.


    Next, he heard a famous saying.


    ¡°Thirty years east, thirty years west, don¡¯t you dare bully me because I¡¯m poor now!1 If you don¡¯t die this time, all of you will die by my hands in the future!¡±


    This voice still had a hint of childishness, and it contained all kinds of unwillingness and anger.


    ¡°Haha! I¡¯m afraid you won¡¯t have a chance!¡±


    ¡°This is the Sea of Blood Trees. No one will save you. You¡¯d better wait for death!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m so scared!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    All kinds of mocking voices resounded.


    Obviously, these people did not think that the young man in front of them could survive today.


    Yin Hao looked around and heard the words of these people. He could not help but feel a trace of despair.


    ¡°Why! Why are the heavens so unfair!?¡±


    He hated it! He clearly had not done anything wrong. Why was he the one who got hurt in the end?


    Strength! He was still too weak. If he was strong enough, he wouldn¡¯t lose his life just because of a mere Blood Tree Heart.


    ¡®Strange! These people¡¯s auras¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at these people curiously.


    Because from his perception, these people¡¯s auras weren¡¯t that pure.


    It was as if there were some strange auras mixed in.


    As for the youth being chased, his ears were a bit strange, like a rabbit¡¯s ears?


    Was this because he had a daemon¡¯s bloodline?


    Zhou Feng instantly felt a trace of curiosity.


    The cultivation of these people in front of him wasn¡¯t high. The strongest one had just broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.


    And the youth they were chasing was only at the Soul Altar realm.


    ¡°Even if I die, I¡¯ll die standing up!¡± Yin Hao let out an indignant roar.


    The muscles in his body began to expand, and white fur grew out of his pores. His eyes were red, and his front teeth became very long.


    Just by looking at his appearance, he looked like a rabbit daemon.


    ¡°Haha! As expected, you only have the rabbit daemon bloodline in your body! That¡¯s it?¡±


    Seeing Yin Hao¡¯s desperate look, the people in front of him not only did not take him seriously, but they laughed out loud instead.


    Clearly, they did not take Yin Hao seriously at all.


    However, there was no reason for them to take Yin Hao seriously. The rabbit daemon bloodline was simply the lowest level of existence in the Eastern Land.


    Even if they went to the Sky Kingdom, they would not accept such a trashy bloodline.


    ¡®It really is the rabbit daemon bloodline¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the scene in front of him with some boredom.


    Could it be that the cultivators in the Eastern Land mainly cultivated bloodlines?


    He had heard before that the Eastern Land¡¯s cultivation system was different from other places.


    Just when Zhou Feng thought that Yin Hao was going to risk his life, that kid suddenly shouted, ¡°Senior! I agree! I agree to your request! As long as you get rid of all these people, I will agree to all of them!¡±


    That lifelike tone was as if there were really other people nearby.


    Zhou Feng observed carefully and found that this kid¡¯s body was ready to run away at any time.


    ¡®Interesting!¡¯


    Initially, when he saw Yin Hao¡¯s sorrowful and angry look, he thought Yin Hao would risk his life.


    However, he did not expect that he could continue running.


    Needless to say, Yin Hao¡¯s realistic acting skills really scared the people on the opposite side.


    ¡°Who!?¡±


    ¡°Who¡¯s here!?¡±


    The people who were chasing after Yin Hao began to look around. Their originally cheeky expressions became serious.


    ¡°Consider yourself lucky!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that this kid was quite interesting and was planning to make a move.


    It just so happened that he was completely clueless about the Eastern Land and did not know the specific situation.


    It would be best if he could find a local to understand the situation.


    Also, he was very interested in Yin Hao¡¯s ability to transform.


    ¡°Stinky brat! Who is nearby? Are you playing with me?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! There¡¯s no one here unless that person can pass through the Sea of Blood Trees.¡±


    ¡°Hurry up and do it! Don¡¯t¡ª¡±


    Before he could finish his sentence, a few arrows flew out from a dark corner.


    Everyone present, except for Yin Hao, died instantly.


    A bloody hole appeared on the skulls of these people.


    Yin Hao, who was about to escape, felt his legs go weak when he saw this scene.


    ¡°It can¡¯t be such a coincidence!¡±


    He had said all this casually just to divert his attention.


    But he didn¡¯t expect that there were really other people nearby?


    Without waiting for Yin Hao to wait for too long, Zhou Feng casually jumped down from the tree crown.


    When Yin Hao saw Zhou Feng, his heart instantly calmed down.


    ¡°Saved? I¡¯m fine!?¡±


    This meant that Zhou Feng did not want to kill him for the time being.


    ¡®A Senior really jumped out? Maybe this is my opportunity?¡¯


    Countless thoughts flashed through Yin Hao¡¯s mind, and in the end, he gnashed his teeth. He immediately rushed in front of Zhou Feng and knelt down.


    While kneeling, he shouted, ¡°Thank you, Senior, for your great kindness! This kid is willing to become Senior¡¯s slave!¡±


    When he said this, Yin Hao¡¯s entire heart was beating rapidly.


    He even used the words that the bard had sung during a feast. Back then, Yin Hao had not understood the meaning of ¡°Serve as Senior¡¯s slave¡± at all.


    However, Yin Hao was keenly aware that this was an opportunity. If he could take this opportunity to become the servant of this person, he would have a chance to peek into a higher realm.


    And even if he could not become Zhou Feng¡¯s servant, he would not be at a disadvantage. After all, his life was now guaranteed.


    The people who had been chasing him were all dead.


    After returning to the village, he could put on an act. If he had an unfathomable Master as his backer, the others should not dare to act rashly against him for the time being!


    1


    Yin Hao¡¯s thoughts were very clear at this moment.


    He had survived, making a huge profit.


    ¡°Answer my questions!¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this, he raised his eyebrows and did not agree with Yin Hao¡¯s request.


    ¡°Yes!¡±


    Yin Hao was still lying on the ground, not daring to say anything else.


    This kid had a good heart!


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng felt that if this young man had some luck, he might have some achievements in the future with this kind of heart.


    This kind of heart that could bend and stretch was much better than his.


    Zhou Feng thought of his time in the Tri-Gu Sect and realized that he was still a little reckless.


    He had always said in his heart that he wanted to live in seclusion, but he often did things that were out of line.


    Although there were times when things happened for a reason, there were times when things were not done perfectly.

 Chapter 482 - Sky Kingdom

    After a simple interrogation, Zhou Feng had a preliminary understanding.


    He had already arrived at the border of the Eastern Land.


    Unlike the Southern Border, the Eastern Land was almost a kingdom.


    Although the sects and forces were huge, the rulers here were all kinds of bloodlines and families.


    As mentioned earlier, the Eastern Land was a place where all kinds of races were mixed together.


    In the past, the noble demihuman clans had formed marriages with humans. Then, they formed clans that were connected by bloodlines.


    Zhou Feng was in the territory of the Sky Kingdom.


    And the imperial clan of the Sky Kingdom was a human clan that possessed the bloodline of the Sun-Swallowing Roc.


    Yin Hao was an ordinary cultivator from a small mountain village, so he didn¡¯t know much.


    Through Yin Hao¡¯s narration, Zhou Feng finally had some understanding of the Sky Kingdom.


    ¡®It¡¯s actually like this?¡¯


    He also discovered that everyone in the Eastern Land had a human bloodline.


    However, everyone was divided according to the daemonic bloodline. The royal clan of each country had the top daemonic bloodline.


    Therefore, wasn¡¯t this the territory of the daemons?


    The cultivators here often picked the noblest daemonic bloodline over their human bloodline.


    ¡®Could this be considered another kind of fusion?¡¯


    For example, although Yin Hao only had the simplest Snow Rabbit bloodline in his body, he was proud of it.


    As for the human bloodline in his body, he basically ignored it.


    ¡®Why did it become like this? Is it because it¡¯s easier to cultivate?¡¯


    Zhou Feng instantly thought of the reason for this development.


    Other than profit-driven reasons, there should be no other reason.


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and asked a question that seemed very strange to Yin Hao. ¡°Then, do you consider yourself a human or a daemon?¡±


    Yin Hao blurted out without thinking, ¡°Of course I am a human!¡±


    ¡°Then, are you willing to give up the Snow Rabbit bloodline in your body?¡±


    ¡°No! I don¡¯t want to be a pariah. Although the Snow Rabbit bloodline is not powerful, it is still an awakened bloodline!


    ¡°Moreover, after awakening a bloodline, it is much easier to cultivate! You can directly use your innate ability to break through to the Divine Ability¡­¡±


    When Yin Hao talked about the Snow Rabbit bloodline in his body, he immediately became more talkative.


    ¡®Pariah?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had caught a key piece of information.


    In other words, people who hadn¡¯t awakened their daemonic bloodline would be regarded as pariahs? Had it already reached this level?


    Weren¡¯t the people of the Eastern Lands afraid of provoking those people from the Central Plains?


    As far as Zhou Feng knew, those people from the Central Plains were all pure humans and looked down on people with daemonic bloodlines the most.


    If some of the old fogeys of the Central Plains heard what Yin Hao said, they would probably grind Yin Hao¡¯s bones into ashes.


    But why had the Eastern Lands become like this?


    Also, after awakening a daemonic bloodline, it was indeed of great help to cultivation.


    By borrowing the uniqueness of the bloodline, it was definitely much easier to get started.


    After all, the daemonic bloodlines carried traces of Daemonic Qi. With these traces of Daemonic Qi, it would be much easier to get started in cultivation.


    However, because of this trace of Daemonic Qi, one¡¯s spiritual power would be mixed. It would become very difficult to break through in the future.


    ¡°Senior? Is there anything else you want to ask?¡±


    At that moment, Yin Hao faintly felt something was wrong with Zhou Feng.


    It seemed that Zhou Feng did not understand the Eastern Land at all. There were also differences between humans and daemons.


    The ¡®Senior¡¯ in front of him seemed to have come from outside the Eastern Land. Or perhaps he was one of those humans who had once been possessed?


    The so-called possessed actually said that the human bloodline was the strongest bloodline and advocated the elimination of the royal clans of several countries.


    The reason was that those royal clans were no longer humans but daemons.


    Even if they transformed into daemons during battle, that was only a divine ability.


    In their daily cultivation and daily life, everyone looked like humans.


    In order to confirm some things, Zhou Feng continued to ask, ¡°Then do you think that the human bloodline is the most useless bloodline?¡±


    Yin Hao, who had been kneeling on the ground with his head lowered the entire time, had a sudden thought when he heard this question.


    ¡®As expected! This person must be one of those lunatics.¡¯


    At that moment, Yin Hao thought of the reward for discovering those lunatics.


    As long as he discovered and reported the traces of these lunatics, he would be able to obtain a sky core.


    This sky core was a specialty of the Sky Kingdom, and it could replace or purify the daemonic bloodline in one¡¯s body.


    If one had already awakened a daemonic bloodline before, the newly awakened bloodline could devour the previous daemonic bloodline. Or it could purify the original daemonic bloodline.


    The royal clan also used this key method to control the Sky Kingdom.


    After all, in the entire Sky Kingdom, only the Sky royal clan could refine such a core.


    From a certain point of view, increasing the power of the bloodline was actually increasing one¡¯s cultivation base.


    ¡®If I had a sky core¡­¡¯


    Yin Hao¡¯s heartbeat instantly sped up a little.


    If he had a sky core to purify his bloodline or awaken another bloodline, he might be able to walk out of the village.


    He might even be able to enter the Sky Palace to cultivate.


    ¡®But before that, I absolutely can not expose myself, nor can I reveal any flaws!¡¯


    In a place that Zhou Feng could not see, Yin Hao¡¯s face turned red.


    ¡°Of course not! How can the human bloodline be useless? After all, we are all humans. How can the human bloodline be useless?¡±


    Yin Hao¡¯s answer was very natural.


    His tone did not change much from before, but he was nervous in his heart.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Yin Hao, who was kneeling in front of him.


    ¡°Of course! Although the human bloodline is not important to many people, I think the human bloodline is a foundation!


    ¡°Without the human bloodline, there would be no Eastern Land! Awakening the daemonic bloodline is just a choice on the path of cultivation.¡±


    After the initial nervousness, Yin Hao¡¯s reply became more natural.


    ¡°I see. Oh right, why are these people chasing you?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not say anything about his answer but changed the topic.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think much of the so-called humans and daemons.


    He only asked this question to understand the specific situation in the Eastern Land.


    As long as they didn¡¯t provoke him, the others could do whatever they wanted.


    ¡°It¡¯s this! The heart of the Blood Tree! It¡¯s something that only the Blood Tree King can drop. I also picked it up by chance!¡±


    When Yin Hao heard Zhou Feng change the topic, he was instantly delighted. Then, he took out something that looked like a wooden board from his waist.


    ¡°The heart of the Blood Tree King?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the so-called heart of the Blood Tree King and felt a shocking vitality and a trace of aura from it.


    ¡®Alive? This heart of the Blood Tree King is alive?¡¯

 Chapter 483 - Heading to the Capital of the Sky Kingdom

    When Zhou Feng noticed that the heart of the Blood Tree King was actually alive, he immediately used the Appraising Eye to appraise it.


    [Blood Tree King Heart: The core essence of the Blood Tree King King. A remnant of its soul has the possibility of reviving.]


    Although the passive Appraising Eye wasn¡¯t effective sometimes, it still gave him a good answer.


    ¡®In other words, the Blood Tree King isn¡¯t dead? There¡¯s still a chance of revival?¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately received the Blood Tree King Heart.


    A special tree species like the Blood Tree might be useful in the future.


    ¡°Alright. I¡¯m done with my questions. Goodbye!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng had pretty much learned everything that Yin Hao knew.


    Yin Hao probably didn¡¯t know any more information.


    However, just this basic knowledge was enough.


    Zhou Feng had already decided to head to the capital of the Sky Kingdom.


    Perhaps the Sky Kingdom¡¯s research on bloodlines would help him break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng could already begin to prepare to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    The Divine Ability realm was an extremely vague realm. As long as one learned a divine ability, they could be called Divine Ability cultivators.


    The realm after the Dragon Transformation realm was the Dao Enlightenment realm. According to Wu Shuhua, breaking through to the Dao Enlightenment realm required talent as well.


    Luck and comprehension ability were also very important.


    Just like the name of this realm, Dao Enlightenment!


    In order to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, one had to comprehend a single law of the great Dao.


    Only by comprehending a complete law of the great Dao would one be able to step into a higher realm.


    1


    Therefore, this had something to do with the Divine Ability realm. The more divine abilities one comprehended in the Divine Ability realm, this meant that one had comprehended many different laws, and they could choose one of them.


    After all, each divine ability represented a single law of the great Dao or several laws of the great Dao.


    It was worth mentioning that the laws of the great Dao one comprehended were also divided into strong and weak ones.


    Although there were 3,000 Daos, each Dao was the same when cultivated to the extreme.


    However, some of the laws were strong¡ªfor example, space and time. Once one comprehended these two laws, they would naturally have an advantage when facing cultivators of the same realm.


    There were also some unorthodox methods that one could use to break through.


    For example, they could use the Enlightenment Stone to help them forcefully comprehend the Dao, but their strength would be slightly weaker.


    ¡®Bloodline and longevity¡­ There should be some connection!¡¯


    Zhou Feng naturally chose the great Dao he wanted to comprehend early on, and that was the Dao of Longevity.


    Although this goal was a bit exaggerated or unrealistic, he still wanted to give it a try.


    Anyway, there was still more time, so he had enough time to change the direction of his comprehension.


    ¡®He really let me go?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng said goodbye, Yin Hao was secretly happy. He didn¡¯t expect this lunatic to let him go.


    ¡®No wonder these lunatics turned into rats, in the end, hiding all day long.¡¯


    However, in the next second, Yin Hao¡¯s smile froze.


    A long spear had pierced through his chest at some point.


    His life force was quickly extinguished.


    All the thoughts in his mind had turned into bubbles.


    Turn the tables? Forget it. There was no way he would have this chance.


    Perhaps what Yin Hao didn¡¯t know was that while he had been having his devious thoughts, Zhou Feng had already noticed Yin Hao¡¯s subtle changes through his high perception and the assistance of the AI.


    When dealing with low-level cultivators, he even had the feeling that he could read minds.


    He was the first to know about Yin Hao¡¯s thoughts.


    As a result, Yin Hao naturally had no chance of surviving.


    ¡°Let¡¯s search the corpses¡­¡±


    After confirming that no one else was in the vicinity, Zhou Feng immediately began his usual routine.


    After killing the enemy, he naturally had to search for the spoils of war.


    Although he did not find anything good, he found something interesting.


    ¡°This is a coin? A coin from the Sky Kingdom?¡±


    There was some curiosity in his eyes as he weighed the coin in his hand.


    It was not heavy. There was a huge Roc carved on it, and there were some patterns on the back.


    ¡®This coin contains traces of Spiritual Qi? It looks like it¡¯s made of Spirit Stones?


    ¡®Besides Spiritual Qi, there¡¯s also some Daemonic Qi in it?


    ¡®Making a coin with Spirit Stones, and filling it with something other than Spiritual Qi¡­¡¯


    Why did Zhou Feng feel that this set was somewhat familiar?


    Wasn¡¯t it just a bit like paper money?


    ¡®If the value of a sky coin was equal to a Spirit Stone, the Spiritual Qi in the coin shouldn¡¯t be so inferior to the Spiritual Qi provided by a Spirit Stone.


    ¡®Seigniorage? This Sky Kingdom has some means!¡¯


    Just looking at the Sky Kingdom¡¯s coin, Zhou Feng felt that this Sky Kingdom was somewhat different.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng was really looking forward to what he would encounter.


    The capital of the Sky Kingdom¡­


    As it was the core hub of the entire Sky Kingdom, it was also very prosperous.


    There was an endless stream of merchants and pedestrians coming and going.


    In front of a carriage, an old man was driving a thin horse.


    Zhou Feng was currently in the carriage, holding some books from the Sky Kingdom.


    From the Sea of Blood Trees to the outskirts of the Sky Kingdom, he had learned more, such as the written language.


    The Sky Kingdom¡¯s written language was completely different from the humans.


    This was a completely new system. If others tried to learn it, they would find it quite difficult.


    However, it was the exact opposite for Zhou Feng, as he possessed the AI.


    Furthermore, Zhou Feng had tried to use soul searching for the first time not long ago.


    After the AI¡¯s modification, he could use the newly optimized soul-searching technique on cultivators that were two realms lower than him.


    Furthermore, there were almost no side effects.


    It was also thanks to that ¡®lucky¡¯ person that Zhou Feng not only picked up the Sky Sutra but also learned that almost every moment, there would be people heading to the Sky Kingdom to test their bloodlines.


    Although the cost of testing bloodlines was not small, once one of the noble daemonic bloodlines was detected, their status would instantly skyrocket, attracting many powers to vie for that person.


    For many commoners, this was a chance that could change their destiny.


    Also, if they reached the age of 30 and could still not awaken the daemonic bloodline, they would be ostracized.


    Those who did not awaken the daemonic bloodline could not only not work well, but their cultivation efficiency was also not good.


    Even their physical fitness was slightly worse than ordinary people.


    Naturally, they would be looked down upon by others.


    Without awakening the daemonic bloodline, one was equivalent to trash. This was already deeply engraved in the minds of many people from the Sky Kingdom.


    Therefore, in order to avoid trouble, Zhou Feng also planned to get a daemonic bloodline.


    Coincidentally, he followed those people who came to test the bloodline to the Sky Kingdom¡¯s capital.


    Of course, the Human Emperor bloodline in his body could not tolerate any other bloodline.


    The so-called bloodline test was just for show.


    In the end, he would use the passive Bloodline Simulation to simulate a daemonic bloodline.


    ¡®What kind of daemonic bloodline should I simulate?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had a headache at this time.


    ¡®Forget it. I might as well simulate the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s Bloodline.¡¯


    After thinking for a while, he chose the most ordinary daemonic bloodline.


    1

 Chapter 484 - Exposed!

    Although the Sky Kingdom¡¯s royal clan had the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, the most common and abundant daemonic bloodline was also the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline of the Sky Kingdom.


    However, most people did not awaken the pure Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    In other words, the bloodline was thin. Not only was it impossible to awaken the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s innate divine ability, but it was also ordinary in other aspects.


    It was even because this bloodline was too precious.


    It required more cultivation resources than other bloodlines, so the disadvantages were very big.


    Those from the royal clan had a pure bloodline and way more cultivation resources than an ordinary person.


    As such, it was not a good thing for ordinary people to awaken the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    But no matter what, it was better than not awakening one successfully.


    Zhou Feng had eavesdropped to get this information.


    The AI collected all the information in the surroundings almost all the time.


    Even the words of others that were unintentionally said would be recorded by the AI and analyzed.


    Therefore, the longer Zhou Feng stayed here, the more information he would obtain.


    ¡®I want to see how they cultivate here.¡¯


    Zhou Feng tried his best to restrain his Blood Qi as he used the passive Bloodline Simulation to conduct a simple simulation.


    Furthermore, it was best not to go too far in the simulation, and it could not be too trashy.


    It would be the most suitable if he could control it to a suitable degree.


    He was in the Sky Kingdom to accumulate experience in order to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    If he wanted to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, he could basically only rely on himself. There were almost no external forces that he could rely on.


    And in order to comprehend the Dao, the first point was naturally to accumulate sufficient resources.


    If one did not accumulate enough resources, even if they sat idly for 100 years, it would be impossible to suddenly comprehend the Dao.


    With this premise in mind, Zhou Feng performed a simple simulation of his bloodline.


    Just as Zhou Feng finished simulating the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s bloodline, a group of people wearing feathered armor shouted, ¡°Everyone, come this way!


    ¡°Everyone, come to the Divine Eye and do the first test.¡±


    The leader of the group was holding a terrifying eye.


    This eye was as big as a person¡¯s head, and it kept moving as if it was still alive.


    The people who participated in the bloodline test couldn¡¯t help but shrink their heads when they saw this.


    This was because most of the people present were still young.


    It was rare to see people of Zhou Feng¡¯s age.


    Although he wasn¡¯t old and looked to be in his early 20s, he was surrounded by a bunch of seven or eight-year-old children.


    ¡°This should be the preliminary test, right? I heard that the Divine Eye was refined by an expert from the Sky royal clan.¡±


    ¡°It should be! I heard that this step will directly eliminate those who have no chance of awakening!¡±


    ¡°I hope I can pass!¡±


    When Zhou Feng heard this, he was a little nervous.


    If this thing saw through the flaws, it would be very bad.


    But fortunately, the thing he was worried about didn¡¯t happen.


    Under the detection of this Divine Eye, only a few dozen people failed and were directly excluded.


    The remaining people all passed the first test.


    After passing the first test, one would be tested to see whether their bloodline could be awakened.


    Everyone was arranged in small cells, and they received an unknown pill.


    Next, they only needed to take this pill and wait quietly.


    This pill was called the Awakening Pill, and it contained traces of daemonic power and pure spiritual power.


    As long as one had some kind of daemonic bloodline, it would definitely be revealed under the stimulation of this pill.


    Those who were unable to awaken their bloodline would not have any reaction.


    Of course, those who were able to live in Eastern Land would basically have all sorts of complicated bloodlines.


    As one grew older, the daemonic bloodline would be stimulated in their body one day.


    Now, these people had come to use the Awakening Pill to awaken it in advance and step into the path of cultivation sooner.


    This was also the reason so many seven or eight-year-old children, or even younger children had come to the Sky Kingdom.


    ¡®This pill¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng sniffed but did not consume it. Instead, he stuffed it into his storage ring.


    He did not have any daemonic bloodline in his body, so it was naturally impossible for him to awaken it.


    Therefore, he planned to wait until it was about time to reveal the simulated bloodline aura.


    During the waiting period, someone would awaken their daemonic bloodline, and all kinds of auras would rise.


    ¡®It¡¯s almost time¡­¡¯


    After sensing that it was almost time, Zhou Feng also released his aura.


    Immediately, the guard opened the door.


    ¡°Awakened? It¡¯s actually the royal bloodline? Unfortunately, it¡¯s too thin!¡±


    The person looked at Zhou Feng, then took out a bowl.


    The bowl was completely black as if it had been carved out of some kind of stone.


    There were still traces of various daemonic auras on it.


    ¡°Come! Use a drop of blood on it. If there are no more problems, you¡¯ll be able to obtain a pureblood technique!


    ¡°Oh right! I will be kind enough to inform you that Princess Ming¡¯s Estate is recruiting people. There¡¯s a very high chance of success with the bloodline you¡¯ve awakened!¡±


    This was the final step of the bloodline test.


    It was to check if someone was cheating.


    After all, there were many people who had used some tricks to make people think that their bloodline had awakened.


    Therefore, an additional procedure required a drop of blood to verify it.


    There was also this pureblood technique.


    This was the main reason Zhou Feng came to take the test.


    Since he wanted to test the so-called daemonic bloodline, there was naturally something that attracted him.


    Pureblood technique! It was a basic technique that the Sky royal clan had deduced. It could slightly increase the purity of the daemonic bloodline in one¡¯s body.


    It was also the most suitable basic technique for most ordinary people to cultivate.


    It was almost impossible to obtain it elsewhere.


    ¡°I still need to drip blood?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change at all, and he casually bit his finger.


    Fortunately, he had prepared sufficiently before this.


    He used a drop of blood that didn¡¯t belong to him in the bowl.


    Instantly, the bowl in front of him flashed with a faint light.


    ¡°Oh? That¡¯s not right! Why is the aura not right?¡±


    The guard sensed the aura of the bloodline bowl and realized that it wasn¡¯t compatible with Zhou Feng¡¯s aura.


    Actually, this person didn¡¯t suspect Zhou Feng. On the contrary, he suspected that the bloodline bowl in his hand was wrong.


    But in the next second, the person¡¯s entire body froze.


    ¡®F*ck! I can¡¯t believe it was such a drop of blood! I can¡¯t believe I didn¡¯t deceive it! What a mistake!¡¯


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s plan, he would naturally pretend to have awakened his bloodline.


    Then, not only would he be able to obtain the pureblood technique for research, but he would also be able to obtain a legal identity along the way.


    A legal identity was a very important thing.


    He would wander around the Sky Kingdom if he was an unregistered resident. Sooner or later, something would happen to him.


    At that time, if someone investigated Zhou Feng¡¯s background, they would discover that it was a complete blank.


    Naturally, suspicion would arise.


    For the time being, Zhou Feng did not wish for others to know that he came from a place other than the Eastern Land.


    But he did not expect that the plan would fail from the start.

 Chapter 485 - Visualization Technique?

    Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction was extremely fast, and he controlled the guard.


    Then, all the muscles in his body began to squirm. He changed into the appearance of the guard.


    Then, it was time to collect his aura, blood, and clothes.


    Since the plan had failed, Zhou Feng might as well use another plan.


    He would replace the person in front of him.


    ¡°AI, soul-search him!¡±


    When Zhou Feng completely changed his appearance, he used the soul-searching technique.


    He would forcibly search the soul and extract the most important memories.


    He didn¡¯t need complete memories, just some core memories.


    In any case, this identity would be discarded soon.


    Half a minute later¡­


    Zhou Feng walked out of the small room and began to do his duty.


    No one knew that the guard had just changed to another person.


    ¡®I see¡­¡¯


    At that moment, he began to sort out the memories extracted by the soul-searching technique.


    The person who just lost his life was called Luo Qiu. He had just stepped into the Purple Mansion realm, and he was a minor official of the Sky Kingdom .


    He was in charge of detecting the awakening of the bloodline.


    At the same time, he was also a member of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate. This was also why he had told Zhou Feng to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Princess Ming was the eldest daughter of the current Sky Emperor, and she was also the only princess.


    The current supreme ruler of the Sky Kingdom was the Sky Emperor. He had broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm many years ago.


    He had three children, one elder daughter and two younger sons.


    ¡®It seems that I can make use of the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline¡­¡¯


    After Zhou Feng obtained the basic information, he instantly had a general understanding of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    He could even sneak into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    But before that, he had to ensure that he wouldn¡¯t be discovered.


    At that moment, many plans surfaced in his heart.


    He even had the thought of directly snatching the pure bloodline.


    After all, sneaking into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate from a young age and slowly sneaking in was really not what he wanted.


    After going through so much trouble to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm, he wasn¡¯t going to be a servant.


    1


    But because he didn¡¯t know much about the specific situation in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, he hesitated.


    ¡®I should sneak into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate¡­ At least, not as a subordinate.¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s idea was to pretend to be a peerless genius and enter Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Although he would receive a lot of attention, he would definitely reap a lot of rewards.


    Or should he pry into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate¡¯s secrets step by step as a subordinate? This was too slow.


    Zhou Feng was perfecting a plan in his mind while completing Luo Qiu¡¯s work.


    Since he had the AI, his acting skills were definitely at the best actor level.


    There weren¡¯t many experts here, so no one noticed anything strange. He also took this opportunity to collect many different daemonic bloodlines.


    The sun slowly set, and it was dusk.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s work was finally over, and he was free to move around.


    ¡®Let¡¯s go home first¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng rejected the other guards¡¯ invitations without batting an eyelid and went back to Luo Qiu¡¯s home alone.


    ¡­


    Luo Qiu¡¯s home was right next to Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    With Luo Qiu¡¯s memories, he was quite familiar with the road.


    During the whole process, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t dare to reveal any of his aura. He was afraid that he would be discovered and would have to run away.


    Fortunately, he didn¡¯t expose himself this time.


    He smoothly returned to Luo Qiu¡¯s home and searched through Luo Qiu¡¯s cultivation techniques and various resources according to his memories.


    ¡°This is the Sun-Swallowing Technique!


    ¡°And then the pureblood technique? Wait! Is this a visualization technique!?¡±


    As he searched through Luo Qiu¡¯s collection, Zhou Feng was shocked because he discovered something good!


    There was actually a visualization diagram in the collection and even a visualization technique attached to it!


    Was this the visualization technique that he had been thinking about? He didn¡¯t expect that a mere minor official in the Sky Kingdom would have a visualization technique.


    ¡°Visualization technique! Visualization technique!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the picture of the great Roc spreading its wings in front of him. The concept of the great Roc blotting out the sky came crashing down on him.


    The importance of the visualization technique did not need to be said.


    Previously, it was because he did not have the visualization technique that his foundation was not very stable, regardless of whether he was at the Soul Altar tier or Purple Mansion realm.


    This was not reflected in the Southern Border.


    After all, no one had the visualization technique, nor did they have the method to cultivate the soul.


    But in the Sky Kingdom , if even an ordinary minor official had the visualization technique, then the other experts had definitely cultivated the visualization technique as well.


    The strength of the soul was definitely far superior to his.


    The reason Zhou Feng placed so much importance on the visualization technique was because his soul¡¯s strength had increased.


    It was very helpful in perceiving the laws of the great Dao.


    People who were born with a strong soul not only had outstanding memories, but they also mastered divine abilities and learned techniques quickly.


    Perceiving the laws of the great Dao also had an advantage.


    It was just like a great river. In front of ordinary people, they only felt that this great river was majestic and shocking.


    However, in the eyes of those with strong souls, this great river contained traces of the great Water Dao.


    After that, it was time to cast the divine ability. Those with strong souls were also much stronger than many people when it came to casting the divine ability.


    ¡°AI, record everything and start analyzing and optimizing!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately got the AI to record all these cultivation techniques.


    Then, he began to carefully search for other stuff in the room.


    After searching for a while, Zhou Feng did not find anything else.


    ¡°What a pity!¡±


    Although he knew that such a good thing as the visualization technique could not be easily distributed on the streets, he could not help but feel a little disappointed after finding that there was nothing else.


    Then, what made Zhou Feng frown was that according to the analysis of the AI, the visualization technique that he had just obtained actually had a limit.


    One had to have the bloodline of the Sun-Swallowing Roc to cultivate it.


    Furthermore, Zhou Feng¡¯s passive Bloodline Simulation did not count as having the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    There seemed to be a special lock inside that restricted the dissemination of the visualization technique.


    There were also restrictions on other cultivation techniques.


    ¡°In other words, I can¡¯t cultivate any of these cultivation techniques now?


    ¡°Can¡¯t I improve them?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    In the face of his question, the AI¡¯s reply was that it couldn¡¯t.


    The foundation created by these cultivation techniques was the bloodline, and it couldn¡¯t be optimized and modified at will.


    At least with the current database and computing power, the AI couldn¡¯t complete this task.


    ¡°Do I need more information to analyze?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned and looked in the direction of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    It seemed like he had to go through Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    He was determined to crack the visualization technique.


    ¡°AI! Analyze the method that allows me to temporarily possess the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.¡±


    Zhou Feng quickly gave another order.


    If he wanted to sneak into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, a single bloodline simulation was absolutely impossible.


    Thus, he had to think of a way to temporarily possess the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.

 Chapter 486 - Changing Bloodlines!

    Zhou Feng spent the whole night studying the cultivation techniques he had obtained from Luo Qiu¡¯s house.


    ¡°Cultivating bloodlines¡­ This is a completely different cultivation system!¡±


    He twisted his neck to relieve the pain.


    After a night of research, he finally had some understanding of the cultivation system of the Sky Kingdom.


    Simply put, the cultivators of the Sky Kingdom focused on cultivating their bloodlines.


    Moreover, breaking through to the Divine Ability realm relied on innate divine abilities, and one would not cultivate other divine abilities.


    This was different from the Southern Border¡¯s cultivation system.


    Although the Southern Border cultivators would awaken their innate divine abilities, almost no one would constantly excavate their innate divine abilities.


    This was because excavating one¡¯s innate divine abilities was very difficult.


    It was better to cultivate other divine abilities directly. Not only would there be various tricks to cultivate them, but they were also relatively easier to cultivate.


    And they would not be restricted by their innate divine abilities.


    In case the innate divine ability one awakened was not powerful, there was no need to worry.


    But in the Sky Kingdom, it was the complete opposite.


    Starting from the Soul Altar realm, the people here would awaken their innate divine ability.


    Then, they would slowly tap into the potential of their innate divine ability and finally rely on their innate divine ability to break through.


    For this reason, the Sky Kingdom had created all sorts of methods to tap into their potential.


    As for cultivating other divine abilities, very few people would choose to do so.


    It was the same even for those mighty figures.


    This was because when the first innate divine ability was almost fully excavated, the cultivators here would choose to awaken the second innate divine ability.


    This was probably because of the bloodline inheritance.


    ¡°If I want to possess the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, I need to suppress the Human Emperor bloodline temporarily.¡±


    Zhou Feng condensed the golden Human Emperor Blood bit by bit and slowly suppressed it to the heart.


    The entire process was extremely painful, and it could easily cause harm to his body.


    According to the AI¡¯s calculations, as long as he temporarily sealed the Human Emperor bloodline and channeled it into the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, he would be able to change his bloodline temporarily.


    This was all thanks to the pureblood technique.


    This pureblood technique had a way of suppressing the other bloodlines in one¡¯s body.


    After all, the people of the Sky Kingdom had all sorts of chaotic bloodlines in their bodies.


    Once one of the bloodlines was awakened, it was necessary to suppress the other bloodlines and then continuously purify the awakened bloodline.


    Now, Zhou Feng was following the same train of thought, temporarily suppressing the Human Emperor bloodline and introducing the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    Cultivating the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline bit by bit would almost certainly cause terrifying damage to the body.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng did not care. If he was injured, so be it. He could recover anyway.


    If he were agitated, he would do another blood and flesh reconstruction.


    As long as the Human Emperor Blood in his heart was still there, it would not be a matter of minutes before his flesh and blood were reconstructed.


    To think that Zhou Feng could think of it. He wanted to create an artificial Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    Moreover, it was temporary! He would recover after using it!


    The most ridiculous thing was that he could do it.


    This was because of Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying passive recovery ability.


    He would use all his strength to create and destroy as long as he didn¡¯t die. As long as he didn¡¯t die, he could always recover.


    It was precisely because of this kind of shameless ability that Zhou Feng¡¯s first experiment succeeded!


    The original Human Emperor Blood was completely compressed to his heart, and the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline polluted the newly generated Blood Qi.


    A huge blood change! It began!


    Soon, Zhou Feng¡¯s stomach started to growl.


    ¡®I¡¯m hungry? The consumption was so huge!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng could only keep stuffing things into his mouth and then rely on the Level-2 Gluttony to digest them.


    An aura that belonged to the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline slowly rose from his body.


    This bloodline naturally carried a rebellious nature and an extremely profound sense of mystery.


    At that moment, it appeared on his body.


    ¡°It changed!?¡±


    Zhou Feng noticed that his appearance had slightly changed.


    A trace of arrogance unknowingly appeared on his face, and his eyes flashed with bright light from time to time. His pupils were slightly golden, and his eyebrows were slightly raised.


    This was equivalent to plastic surgery, and it was very natural.


    ¡®This level is still not enough. If I want to obtain a higher level visualization technique, I have to be purer!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt the density of the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in his body and sensed that it was still not pure enough.


    His plan was to obtain a complete visualization technique.


    Therefore, his Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline had to be purer. It was best if it could reach the stage where Princess Ming would be shocked.


    Only then would he be able to obtain sufficient attention.


    Of course, he could not go too far.


    It wouldn¡¯t be good if he alarmed the Sky Emperor, a Dao Enlightenment expert.


    Otherwise, he could only be reborn directly.


    ¡®Then, Luo Qiu¡¯s identity is crucial¡­¡¯


    There was nothing wrong with the bloodline for the time being, so Zhou Feng began to solve the identity problem.


    If a person with a pure Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline appeared randomly, it would naturally arouse suspicion.


    Therefore, he had to have a background and a story.


    Only then would he be investigated and not be exposed.


    Therefore, Luo Qiu¡¯s identity was very important.


    Zhou Feng had to rely on Luo Qiu¡¯s identity to fabricate his background.


    Fortunately, he wasn¡¯t in a hurry. He still had a lot of time to fabricate a reasonable story slowly.


    ¡®I still need to plan my escape after my plan is exposed¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to plan a series of backup plans slowly, and the escape plan was naturally the highest priority.


    No matter what, survival was naturally the most important. As long as there was no intervention from a Dao Enlightenment expert, he was very confident in his escape ability.


    Once he used the Starseizer Steps, even most of the formations could not trap him.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng pretended to be Luo Qiu and worked every day.


    At the same time, he allowed himself to possess the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline truly.


    To be honest, the difficulty of changing bloodlines had already exceeded Zhou Feng¡¯s imagination.


    At first, everything was going smoothly, but halfway through, his entire body began to resist the transformation, and the Human Emperor Blood located in his heart was even more frenzied.


    Zhou Feng could not suppress it, causing the two bloodlines to clash directly.


    That time, it nearly killed him.


    Fortunately, the AI¡¯s reaction was fast enough to help him control the two bloodlines in his body.


    One was the ancient Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, and the other was the Human Emperor bloodline that originated from Emperor Pan.


    The Human Emperor bloodline had a huge advantage when the two bloodlines clashed.


    If Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t been biased, the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline would have been gone long ago.


    Zhou Feng would still have to go out to collect materials when that time came.


    This incident also made him understand that the Human Emperor bloodline and the Daemon Emperor bloodline were not as good as his own bloodline.


    ¡®If I have the chance, I will also create my own bloodline.


    ¡®Although the Human Emperor bloodline is good, too many things are involved, and it doesn¡¯t belong to me. This is not good at all.¡¯


    A seed was planted in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    He wanted his own body, his own bloodline, and his own cultivation technique!


    He wanted to brand everything that belonged to him!

 Chapter 487 - Undercurrent

    Zhou Feng took Luo Qiu¡¯s place for the rest of the day.


    He began to work and rest every day.


    Apart from work, he was constantly forging a document, one that could prove his reasonable identity.


    The longer he stayed in the Sky Kingdom, the more familiar he became with it.


    How should he put it?


    Although the kingdom was ruled by cultivators, it was unexpectedly advanced in all aspects.


    Although discrimination existed, every citizen could survive.


    The Sky Kingdom had actually established a special relief department.


    If one was really starving, they could receive three servings of food every day.


    Moreover, the Sky Kingdom did not allow tramps and beggars to appear here.


    If you did not have a job or assets, there was a high probability that you would be dragged away by the recruitment department and become a soldier of the Sky Kingdom.


    That¡¯s right!


    Although the Sky Kingdom¡¯s name sounded impressive, it was only a small country at the border of the Eastern Land.


    At the same time, it was at war with two other countries, competing for various cultivation resources.


    Perhaps because of this reason, the Sky Kingdom placed great importance on human resources.


    Every citizen of the Sky Kingdom was a resource. It was shameful to waste them at will, and it was weakening the Sky Kingdom¡¯s war potential.


    That was why there was a minimum guarantee plan.


    This was completely different from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    No one could be killed at will.


    Even cultivators were the same. Although cultivators had all kinds of privileges, they could not kill any civilians at will. Even if they were convicted of a serious crime, they would still need to be judged by the imperial court.


    The outcome of the trial was likely to be a recruitment.


    ¡°Moreover, it seems that the Sky royal clan can create an ascending passage?¡±


    After a few days of investigation, Zhou Feng faintly discovered that the Sky royal clan had created an ascending pathway.


    For ordinary people, as long as they were strong enough and had great potential, they could climb up through the path of the Military Ministry bit by bit.


    Nurture! Invest? Once these proved their potential, they would float like flying snow.


    Currently, there was a commoner in the Sky Kingdom who had succeeded, becoming one of the five great generals of the Military Ministry.


    He had tens of thousands of elite soldiers under his command. Although he was a little cold compared to the other four great generals, he was still an inspirational figure.


    ¡°This kind of ruling method¡­ and this kind of atmosphere¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng once again revealed a fake smile and rejected the person who had invited him.


    The initial preparations were almost done.


    As long as he wanted to, he would soon be able to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate with a new identity.


    After a few days of investigation, Zhou Feng also found that joining Princess Ming¡¯s Estate might be a good choice.


    Princess Ming¡¯s Estate had just been established, so it was in the early stages of development.


    As long as he revealed a little of his potential, there was a high chance that he would be heavily nurtured.


    The Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s bloodline was also transplanted very smoothly.


    The only troublesome possibility was that once he wanted to restore his original Human Emperor bloodline, his entire body might need to be reconstructed again.


    After all the preparations were done, Zhou Feng asked the AI, ¡°Has Luo Qiu¡¯s daily behavior simulation been completed?¡±


    In order to prevent anyone from finding out that something had happened to Luo Qiu, he had put in a lot of effort. Not only had he used Luo Qiu¡¯s flesh and blood to refine a special dao soldier, but he also wanted the AI to think of a way to mimic him.


    What Zhou Feng needed was an AI program to let this newly refined dao soldier replace Luo Qiu.


    And he would complete Luo Qiu¡¯s tasks and work every day.


    For this reason, he had been cutting off Luo Qiu¡¯s social connections.


    After that, he would find a way to let Luo Qiu die an unnatural death. Then, there would be no evidence to prove anything.


    It could be said that in order to settle down safely in this unfamiliar place, Zhou Feng had made many arrangements.


    ¡°Very good!¡±


    After receiving the AI¡¯s feedback, he felt that everything was ready, and only the east wind was needed.


    Princess Ming¡¯s Estate¡­


    Although it was newly built, just by standing at the entrance, one could feel an imposing aura.


    There were two Purple Mansion guards standing guard outside the door.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng appeared with a smile on his face.


    As for why he was smiling, this was because Zhou Feng wanted to hide his original personality and habits.


    In addition, he wanted to leave a deep impression on others. This time, he was prepared to take the high-profile route.


    Therefore, if nothing unexpected happened, he would continue to smile like this.


    ¡°Hello!¡±


    Getting straight to the point, Zhou Feng took out a letter.


    He showed the guards his intention of coming here.


    Princess Ming¡¯s Estate was constantly recruiting talented people recently. People like Zhou Feng were not rare.


    Thus, the two guards just read the letter and directly brought Zhou Feng into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    If there were no accidents, there would be a chance to test the bloodline and have a competition.


    Princess Ming had just come of age and was approved to build a mansion. Naturally, she had to form a team.


    Everything was as Zhou Feng had expected.


    He had not wasted these past few days.


    Under very limited conditions, Zhou Feng investigated Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Soon, he came to an empty space.


    There were already many people gathered here.


    And just like Zhou Feng, these people were all recommended here through various channels.


    ¡°Next is the bloodline test! All you need to do is to drop a drop of blood on this rock!¡±


    Chaner casually glanced at Zhou Feng, who had just arrived, and emphasized once more.


    ¡°As for those whose bloodline aptitude isn¡¯t high enough, there won¡¯t be any actual combat matches soon!¡±


    The conditions for Princess Ming¡¯s Estate to select a group of people were very simple. One was that they had to have a good aptitude, and the other was that they could fight.


    No matter what, they had to at least have something eye-catching.


    Only then could they enter Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    But unfortunately, although many people came to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate during this period, there were very few who had real potential.


    After all, everyone was more inclined toward the imperial court than the newly established Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Or rather, they were Princess Ming¡¯s two younger brothers.


    Although the fight for the throne seemed to be out of reach, it was better to fight for it as soon as possible.


    In the Sky Kingdom, the position of the successor did not differentiate between men and women.


    As long as one was strong and had high military capabilities, they could become the first successor to the throne.


    On the surface, Princess Ming had a huge advantage. Not only was she old and talented enough, but she had also opened a mansion and formed her own team.


    But the bad thing was that Princess Ming did not have the support of her mother¡¯s side.


    And the remaining two princes had the support of a powerful clan.


    Princess Ming even had to rely on the royal clan for her cultivation resources. She did not have any extra resources to train her team.


    Therefore, it was normal for no geniuses to come here.


    Now that the competition for the next Sky Emperor was gradually becoming clear, it was time to start betting.


    After all, the current Sky Emperor couldn¡¯t give birth to any more children.


    As a Dao Enlightenment expert, it was difficult for the Sky Emperor to give birth to any children.


    It was already thanks to the earth¡¯s essence that his wife was able to give birth to two princes this time.


    Therefore, the heir to the throne would be Princess Ming or one of the two princes.


    In order to prevent Princess Ming from snatching too many opportunities, the forces behind the other two princes were even secretly playing tricks and intercepting the geniuses heading to Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.

 Chapter 488 - Bloodline Atavism?

    To use the simplest term to describe the current situation of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate¡ªit was extremely bad!


    As the only child of the Sky Emperor, Princess Ming could be said to be doted upon.


    But Princess Ming¡¯s status plummeted ever since the Sky Emperor gave birth to two more princes through the earth¡¯s essence.


    Although she was still the Sky Emperor¡¯s treasured daughter, she wasn¡¯t the only one who was doted on anymore.


    There were even all sorts of rumors targeting Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Zhou Feng also chose to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate because of this reason.


    The crisis was good!


    Only in a crisis would Princess Ming¡¯s Estate bring out more good things.


    Only then would he have more opportunities to pry into more cultivation techniques and even visualization techniques.


    As for the potential dangers?


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t mind. If it really didn¡¯t work out, he could change to another identity or even leave the Sky Kingdom.


    It wasn¡¯t impossible. After all, weren¡¯t there many countries in the Eastern Land?


    Soon, the people in front of Zhou Feng underwent a bloodline test, but none could be considered to have potential.


    Therefore, the face of Chaner, who was in charge of the bloodline test, grew longer and longer.


    ¡°If this goes on, how am I going to explain this to the Princess!?¡±


    As Princess Ming¡¯s maid, Chaner naturally had to think of Princess Ming in every way.


    At this moment, Zhou Feng maintained his fake smile and walked forward.


    A drop of blood was squeezed out of his finger.


    Immediately, the bloodline stone started to shake.


    Furthermore, a huge shadow of the Sun-Swallowing Roc flew out of the stone, while an ear-piercing scream pierced through the sky.


    The Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body seemed to have been activated.


    His eyebrows and eyes began to be affected.


    His appearance had changed slightly because of the bloodline.


    Now, it was even more obvious that his Blood Qi had been activated once again.


    The sound of his heart beating was like the roar of a huge drum.


    ¡°W-What?¡±


    After seeing this strange phenomenon, Chaner was so excited that she could not even speak clearly.


    This was because the density of this bloodline was practically close to that of the other members of the royal clan.


    She even suspected that Zhou Feng was a member of the royal clan.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°Are you sure he isn¡¯t from the royal clan?¡±


    ¡°Could it be the legendary bloodline atavism?¡±


    ¡°I heard that 1 in every 10,000,000 people, there will be a special case, and that is the bloodline atavism!¡±


    ¡°I know! The so-called bloodline atavism means that without any warning, the bloodline will return to the concentration of the ancestor¡¯s bloodline.¡±


    It was just as Zhou Feng had thought.


    This bloodline test shocked everyone present.


    After reacting, Chaner instantly realized that she had to protect this fellow. She could not let other powers snatch him away, especially now that the princess was not in the estate.


    ¡°You! Follow Me!¡±


    After saying this, Chaner directly grabbed Zhou Feng¡¯s hand and walked in a direction.


    Zhou Feng naturally did not resist.


    He had been scheming for so long and even modified his bloodline. Wasn¡¯t it all for the sake of gaining the attention of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate?


    Although Princess Ming¡¯s Estate had immediately sealed off the news, the news still could not be stopped.


    ¡°A genius whose bloodline has undergone atavism appeared in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate!¡±


    ¡°And it is the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.¡±


    ¡°This person has already been temporarily roped in by Princess Ming¡¯s Estate!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    All sorts of news constantly flooded the entire Sky Kingdom.


    In an instant, Zhou Feng became famous.


    Naturally, all sorts of investigations followed.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had made preparations before, and most people found out that Zhou Feng was from a small village and had rushed to the kingdom recently to test his bloodline.


    Then, someone manipulated him into going to Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    After receiving the news, the various factions did not pursue the matter any further.


    As long as there was a specific source, it was fine.


    A good seedling with an extremely pure Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline would definitely not be a spy or anything. After all, his bloodline was there. There was absolutely nothing to suspect.


    The enemies of the Sky Kingdom would not pay such a huge price, even if they were stupid, just to push a nail into the Sky Kingdom.


    ¡°In order to avoid any mistakes, we need to test it again!¡±


    Zhou Feng was pulled into a secret chamber by Chaner.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry. There won¡¯t be any danger, and it will be beneficial to you.¡±


    It was as if she was trying to make Zhou Feng feel at ease.


    Therefore, Chaner tried her best to speak to him in a gentle tone.


    Then, she took out a pill. This was a pill that was specially given to cultivators with the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    Only cultivators with the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline could take it.


    This medicinal pill would become a deadly poison if someone were an imposter.


    On the other hand, it could further stimulate the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t hesitate much and directly swallowed it.


    ¡®Fortunately, I didn¡¯t play any tricks.¡¯


    He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart and began to feel the changes in his body.


    As expected, after this pill was consumed, the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to activate continuously. The bloodline power that was activated actually began to temper his physical body?


    And most importantly, the strength of his physical body improved.


    Also, some incomplete information began to pour into his mind continuously.


    ¡®This is the information that came from the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline?¡¯


    However, this information was incomplete.


    ¡®Could it be because this Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline is artificial?¡¯


    ¡°How is it? What changes do you feel now?¡±


    Chaner had been closely watching the changes in his body.


    Zhou Feng chose to answer truthfully, ¡°My body seems to be strengthening. There are still some bits and pieces of information!¡±


    ¡°Good! Very good!¡±


    After listening to his description, Chaner was so excited that she almost jumped up.


    She had already confirmed that Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline was not an imitation.


    This was really a great opportunity!


    She had to take advantage of Zhou Feng¡¯s lack of understanding of the current situation in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate to tie him up in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    If it were not because the timing was not right, Chaner would have even wanted to send herself to Zhou Feng¡¯s bed.


    As long as such a genius was bound to Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, that would definitely be a huge profit.


    ¡°From today onward, you can live in the Princess Ming¡¯s Estate. There are also all sorts of cultivation methods and resources that you don¡¯t need to worry about!¡±


    Chaner began to do her best, intending to make Zhou Feng stay.


    Zhou Feng naturally had no intention of rejecting this.


    He entered Princess Ming¡¯s Estate for these cultivation techniques and resources.


    He had even temporarily sealed his own cultivation for this.


    In the eyes of others, Zhou Feng was a Soul Altar cultivator.


    And unless it was a Dao Enlightenment expert, it was impossible to see through his disguise.


    ¡°Right! I¡¯ll immediately get the Princess to come back! If there are no accidents, you¡¯ll be able to see Her Highness tomorrow!¡±


    Chaner then began to arrange various matters.


    Zhou Feng settled down in the core area of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Following that were all sorts of spirit fruits and food.

 Chapter 489 - Cultivation Phenomenon?

    The news of a genius appearing in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate spread further.


    And at this time, everyone knew that this genius didn¡¯t have a strong background and that he had joined Princess Ming¡¯s Estate while not being aware of the princess¡¯ predicament.


    After learning this, countless people were sighing over Princess Ming¡¯s good luck.


    Under normal circumstances, such a genius would never have joined Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    The various major forces had completely sealed off Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    But even so, these forces wouldn¡¯t give up on targeting Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Zhou Feng would most likely encounter different targets in the coming period.


    Although the Sky Kingdom didn¡¯t allow fights to involve the lower classes of the public, they would not stop a fight between cultivators. They would even encourage it.


    Perhaps the combative atmosphere was very common among cultivators because of the daemons¡¯ bloodlines.


    ¡°This is the Sun-Swallowing Art, the cultivation technique of the royal clan.


    ¡°The princess suggests that you cultivate from scratch all the way to the Purple Mansion realm. Then, the princess will personally come and guide you.¡±


    Chaner was currently holding a feather and speaking to Zhou Feng.


    Some matters had delayed Princess Ming, so she was temporarily unable to return.


    Thus, she first handed over the cultivation technique to Zhou Feng and suggested he cultivate once more, starting from the Body Tempering realm.


    ¡°Right. When you cultivate to the Soul Altar realm, you can cultivate the visualization technique. At that time, you will be able to receive the princess¡¯ token!


    ¡°Then you can enter the royal clan¡¯s land to visualize!¡±


    As she spoke, Chaner gave some instructions.


    Because of Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline, he could enter the royal clan¡¯s land to visualize directly.


    Moreover, he could study the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s statue.


    This statue was the true treasure passed down from the Sky royal clan. It had always been in the palace.


    Since Zhou Feng had the pure Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, it was opened to him.


    There wasn¡¯t even a need for a loyalty test.


    This was somewhat out of Zhou Feng¡¯s expectations.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    Zhou Feng once again revealed that slightly fake smile.


    At the same time, the AI began to scan all the cultivation techniques in his hands.


    ¡°Alright. There¡¯s still a medicinal bath tonight, don¡¯t forget!¡±


    As the housekeeper of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, Chaner still had a lot of things to do and left in a hurry.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng leaped to become a direct subordinate of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Even if he was shopping outside, as long as he reported the name of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, the account would naturally be recorded in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    ¡®Time to start cultivating¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng naturally wouldn¡¯t waste his time and started cultivating this so-called Sun-Swallowing Art.


    From the name of the Sun-Swallowing Art, one could make some speculation.


    The introduction to this cultivation technique had to do with swallowing the sun essence fire to cultivate.


    The opening was to teach Zhou Feng how to draw the sun essence fire from the nine heavens down.


    No wonder this cultivation technique was exclusive to the Sun-Swallowing Roc.


    If he didn¡¯t have the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, just drawing the sun essence fire into his body would be suicidal.


    ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, all kinds of cultivation techniques, including visualization and all kinds of food, are exclusive to the bloodline?¡±


    Zhou Feng recalled the spirit fruits he had eaten last night. They seemed to contain traces of sun essence..


    Were all of these things actually needed for a specific bloodline?


    If one didn¡¯t have this specific bloodline, they would be courting death.


    The Sky royal clan had created a system for their own bloodline to serve themselves?


    Just this kind of measure was enough to make countless people unable to snatch the Sky royal clan¡¯s resources because it was useless to snatch them!


    These things were only beneficial to the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline. Otherwise, it would be tantamount to suicide.


    In order to maintain this system, everyone with the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline would do their best to protect this system.


    This was because only if this system continued to operate would they be able to obtain sufficient benefits from it.


    ¡®Impressive!¡¯


    Zhou Feng praised in his heart, and then he began attracting the sun essence fire.


    The instant he obtained this technique to attract the sun essence fire, the AI helped him master it, and it made minor improvements according to his own characteristics.


    ¡°What¡­ What is that?¡±


    ¡°Look! It¡¯s in the sky!¡±


    ¡°Someone is guiding the sun essence fire to cultivate? What kind of monster is that?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    An extremely exaggerated phenomenon appeared.


    Countless tongues of sun essence fire descended from the sky, and this scene was like the descent of heaven¡¯s fire.


    A large number of tongues of sun essence fire transformed into fire crows.


    ¡®It¡¯s that simple?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at the fire crows in the sky and didn¡¯t realize how exaggerated his actions were.


    On the contrary, he felt that the Sun-Swallowing Art was quite simple.


    In the next second, his entire body was enveloped by the sun essence fire.


    The sun essence fire flowed through Zhou Feng¡¯s pores and continuously entered his body.


    During this process, he began to refine his body and burn away all the impurities continuously.


    The other things in his bloodline were also purified.


    It made the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s bloodline even purer.


    Zhou Feng had already broken through from the Body Tempering to the Qi Gathering realm in less than the time it t¦Ï¦Ï¦Ê for an incense stick to burn.


    After all, this was considered a new cultivation. This speed was nothing at all.


    ¡°Eh? A passive upgrade?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that a passive skill had suddenly upgraded.


    Growable Skin: A layer of old skin will grow outside your body, and this layer of old skin can continuously grow. This layer of old skin can reduce 5% of the impact¡¯s power.


    (Max growth rate: 50%)


    This passive Growable Skin could be considered a new passive skill.


    Now, it had evolved to remove 10% of the impact of the power.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s outermost layer of skin began to squirm non-stop, and some of the internal structures also underwent changes.


    What was even stranger was that his body seemed to be undergoing some incredible transformation.


    His body had been reconstructed using the Human Emperor Blood.


    Now, he had experienced another baptism with the sun essence fire.


    Even Zhou Feng did not know what his body would become.


    ¡°This¡­ This¡­ This¡­¡±


    Chaner, who had just left, stuttered when she saw the strange phenomenon that Zhou Feng had created.


    What kind of genius was this?


    The first time he absorbed the sun essence fire, it had already formed the strange phenomenon of fire crows?


    ¡®Wait a minute! Will he be in danger?¡¯


    The sun essence fire was not so easy to tame, and its terrifying heat could effortlessly melt everything.


    Such a genius could not fall here.


    At the thought of this, Chaner immediately abandoned all her work and rushed back.

 Chapter 490 - The Sun

    ¡°Body Tempering! Body Tempering! Only a strong body can support the next step of cultivation!¡±


    Zhou Feng began tempering his body once again.


    At that moment, he also had some understanding.


    Why was the first step of cultivation Body Tempering?


    The reason was very simple. It required a strong body to support all kinds of cultivation actions.


    Then, it was Qi Gathering!


    One would attract the surrounding Spiritual Qi and absorb it into the physical body.


    When Zhou Feng experienced these realms before, he had practically skipped over them without debating their importance.


    It hadn¡¯t taken him long to break through in the past, so he could relive it.


    In the next second, the surrounding Spiritual Qi began to swarm over.


    The Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline also began to be stimulated continuously to help him make a breakthrough.


    Even the image of a great Roc suddenly appeared.


    ¡°An avatar! An avatar actually appeared!¡±


    ¡°An avatar of the Sun-Swallowing Roc!¡±


    ¡°Just what kind of monster did Princess Ming¡¯s Estate take in?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The crowd outside Princess Ming¡¯s Estate was once again shocked.


    The purest Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline could only display this kind of avatar.


    To give a simple example, only the current Sky Emperor, Princess Ming, and the two princes had manifested such an avatar during cultivation.


    The other members of the royal clan had never manifested such an avatar.


    Could he be the illegitimate child of the Sky Emperor?


    At that moment, many people began to doubt Zhou Feng¡¯s identity.


    After all, it didn¡¯t make sense!


    The purity of this bloodline shouldn¡¯t be unknown.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    The more Zhou Feng cultivated, the more he felt that something was wrong.


    The Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline was continuously devouring Spiritual Qi.


    Then, his realm began to break through step by step. This feeling was as if he was going through some kind of program.


    Simply put, breaking through didn¡¯t require any brain at all.


    It did not require much effort either. The Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline had already helped him complete everything.


    It was as if your ancestors had already helped you break through so that you wouldn¡¯t need to waste your energy in these realms.


    It was as if it was saying, ¡°Hurry up and go to the next realm!¡±


    ¡°Is this the bloodline inheritance?¡±


    Zhou Feng finally understood why so many people in the Sky Kingdom were passionate about the various daemonic bloodlines.


    They were much more powerful than the human bloodline in some aspects.


    The ancestors could help their descendants break through ahead of time, and some people could even be born with Soul Altar or even Divine Ability cultivation.


    From the start, they were ahead of everyone else.


    Soul Altar realm¡­ Purple Mansion realm¡­


    These two realms did not hold Zhou Feng back for too long.


    This was because the Sun-Swallowing Art was a cultivation technique that did not place much importance on the soul. Forging the Soul Altar and opening the Purple Mansion were side effects.


    The SunSwallowing Art only focused on tempering the body and purifying the bloodline¡¯s power.


    In the soul aspect, the Sky royal clan had always relied on visualization techniques to strengthen it.


    ¡°Peak of the Purple Mansion realm?¡±


    Chaner had just returned, and she could already sense Zhou Feng¡¯s current realm.


    He had actually broken through to the peak of the Purple Mansion realm in one go?


    Next, as long as he awakened the innate divine ability, he would be able to break through to the Divine Ability realm.


    In just one day, he had accomplished the dream of most cultivators.


    Although he might be a little weaker in terms of strength, this was a little too exaggerated!


    ¡®Bloodline power, bloodline inheritance¡­ I need more information!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was very interested in bloodline power.


    How did he do it?


    Was the bloodline inheritance really that powerful?


    If he could figure out the theory behind it, he might be able to create his own bloodline.


    Zhou Feng slowly retracted his aura.


    He was still immersed in that special state.


    ¡°Such talent! Such potential! It¡¯s a pity for you to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! You might not know the current situation of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate!¡±


    Zhou Feng was quickly disturbed by someone.


    Two people flew directly into the air space above Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Their words even revealed a sense of pity and admiration.


    They had come to snatch him!


    This was what Chaner was thinking in her heart.


    ¡®Not good! The princess hasn¡¯t returned yet. Right now, there¡¯s no one in the estate which can suppress these two old fellows!¡¯


    Chaner was anxious and directly crushed a feather.


    This was a special token.


    Chaner was decisive as she quickly contacted Princess Ming to prevent the loss of Zhou Feng.


    This was because the two people in front of her were both veteran Divine Ability cultivators. Not only had their innate divine arts been cultivated to perfection, but they had also awakened a second innate divine ability.


    No one in the entire Princess Ming¡¯s Estate other than Princess Ming could stop these two people!


    ¡°Hmm?¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his head slightly.


    He could feel two completely different bloodline powers.


    One was tyrannical, while the other was cold.


    ¡°Princess Ming might be able to provide for an ordinary genius, but I¡¯m afraid she won¡¯t be able to provide for a genius of your caliber even if she wants to!¡±


    Cai Zhang had a beaming smile on his face.


    The moment he opened his mouth, he told Zhou Feng about Princess Ming¡¯s current predicament.


    If it was based solely on the talent that Zhou Feng had displayed, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate simply could not afford it. Princess Ming opening her own estate independently meant that she was financially independent.


    She could not rely on the royal clan for everything. Without the royal clan¡¯s supply, it was naturally impossible to provide for a genius of Zhou Feng¡¯s caliber.


    ¡°I have a divine ability stone tablet here, as well as a Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s Dao Bone!¡±


    After explaining the disadvantages of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, Cai Zhang took out the good stuff that he had.


    Although he didn¡¯t persuade Zhou Feng to turn his head elsewhere, his intention was very obvious.


    And it was difficult for people to refuse. After all, this directly analyzed Zhou Feng¡¯s strengths and weaknesses in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Only the purest benefits could move people¡¯s hearts.


    Empty talk? This kind of behavior was of no use.


    Then, Cai Zhang took out a bone.


    A savage aura immediately spread out from this bone.


    At the same time, this small bone was covered with dense dao patterns.


    ¡°It¡¯s a high cost!¡±


    Many people who knew the value immediately recognized that this was a Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s Dao Bone.


    Moreover, its realm wasn¡¯t low. It had already reached the realm of evolving Dao Bones. It could be said that just this treasure alone was enough to make countless people go crazy.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! Wait! Our princess¡ª¡±


    Chaner, who was at the side, was instantly like an ant on a hot pot.


    She wanted to say that the princess had something better, but her words were stuck in her throat because the princess really didn¡¯t have anything better than this.


    ¡°Your Princess Ming¡¯s Estate? Your Princess Ming¡¯s Estate has something better than the Dao Bone of the Sun-Swallowing Roc?¡± Cai Zhang¡¯s eyes revealed a trace of mockery.


    Obviously, he knew that Princess Ming was not in the estate.


    That was why he was so impudent. If Princess Ming were here, Cai Zhang would not dare to be so arrogant.


    ¡°Of course there is!¡±


    1


    The next second, a cold voice sounded.


    The sky darkened slightly, and a barefoot woman slowly flew over from the horizon.


    The master of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate had returned!


    Cai Zhang¡¯s face instantly froze, but he quickly returned to his smiling appearance.

 Chapter 491 - Princess Ming

    A barefoot girl floated in the air, her long black hair cascading down like a waterfall.


    A gentle breeze blew, and her black hair fluttered in the wind.


    Her exquisite face was tinged with indifference.


    Dead silence!


    Following the arrival of Princess Ming, the entire place became deathly silent.


    It was very obvious that Princess Ming still had some deterrent power.


    Zhou Feng looked at Princess Ming and faintly felt a swallowing intent.


    1


    This feeling was as if a black hole was quietly swallowing everything around it.


    ¡°I wonder what you have considered?¡±


    Cai Zhang suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Then I wonder what good things Princess Ming¡¯s Estate can provide?¡±


    The gazes of the surrounding people once again turned to Zhou Feng.


    He did not have any stage fright, and a fake smile appeared on his face.


    Then, he turned around and asked what price Princess Ming¡¯s Estate could afford.


    Why had Zhou Feng snuck into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate? Of course, it was for cultivation in order to obtain more cultivation methods.


    To be honest, he was very interested in this Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s Dao Bone because its dao patterns seemed to contain a divine ability that belonged to the Sun-Swallowing Roc.


    And it was the most original version with its own annotations.


    If he could study the dao patterns, he might be able to try and create his own divine ability.


    As for the visualization technique, he knew that he had to enter the royal palace.


    Other than borrowing the help of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, other people definitely had the ability to bring him into the royal palace.


    Therefore, he asked for a bid to see which side would offer a higher price.


    ¡°He has guts!¡±


    ¡°Such guts¡­ Looks like this person¡¯s state of mind is not bad!¡±


    ¡°Interesting! This person is probably not a simple mountain village youth!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Once Zhou Feng¡¯s words came out, the gazes of the surrounding people instantly changed.


    Since he dared to utter such words in such a situation, it meant that he was very brave and definitely not a person who cowered in fear.


    The state of mind was also a very important indicator for cultivators.


    After all, too many people had a good aptitude, but their state of mind did not pass the test.


    Sometimes they were not decisive enough, and sometimes they were too reckless.


    The most outstanding genius should be the kind of person with great cultivation aptitude and an excellent state of mind.


    The most important point was for one to evaluate their situation. There were actually not many people who could do these things.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re going to betray Princess Ming¡¯s Estate? Yesterday, you chose to join the estate!¡±


    Princess Ming didn¡¯t say anything.


    But Chaner, who was at the side, was anxious.


    After all, in Chaner¡¯s heart, Zhou Feng was already considered a person of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    What he was doing now was simply betraying Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    ¡°Betraying? I don¡¯t think so. After all, there are still a lot of things that I don¡¯t understand. Your Princess Ming¡¯s Estate is suspected of deceiving me!


    ¡°And for the sake of my own cultivation path, I will definitely choose a better environment!¡±


    Zhou Feng maintained his fake smile on his face and started to defend himself.


    Why did he have to stay in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate? Why couldn¡¯t he switch to another place?


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Previously, Little Brother Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t clear about your Princess Ming¡¯s Estate¡¯s situation!


    ¡°Now that he¡¯s clear about it, he naturally has to make his own decisions! What do you think, Princess Ming?¡±


    Cai Zhang, who was at the side, immediately started to chime in.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were very much in line with normal thinking.


    It was very normal for him to yearn for a better environment and hope to obtain more resources.


    ¡°You!¡±


    When Chaner heard this, she instantly became angry and anxious.


    Endless grievances immediately rose in her heart, but she didn¡¯t know where to start when she wanted to question Zhou Feng.


    At that moment, Princess Ming slowly descended from the sky. She landed beside Zhou Feng, and he could even feel the faint fragrance of her body.


    ¡°Put away your trash.¡±


    Princess Ming cast a faint glance at Cai Zhang, and her lips slightly opened.


    Just these words made countless people present to feel the majesty of Princess Ming.


    Trash! A Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s Dao Bone was only a piece of trash in Princess Ming¡¯s eyes?


    This might be a little exaggerated, but it was indeed a piece of trash in the princess¡¯ eyes as there was a complete carcass of a Sun-Swallowing Roc in the royal palace.


    A mere Dao Bone was nothing at all.


    ¡°Since you chose to join the estate yesterday, you are now a member of our estate!¡±


    Princess Ming belittled Cai Zhang before turning her head around.


    ¡°My estate will naturally not be stingy toward true geniuses!¡±


    With that said, Princess Ming took out a piece of animal skin.


    The instant this animal skin appeared, the breathing of many people in the surroundings became rough.


    It was obvious that they recognized what it was.


    ¡°A method to refine a lifebound artifact?¡±


    ¡°The spirit light on it is almost gone. This might be the last chance!¡±


    ¡°Princess Ming has invested a lot!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Soon, Princess Ming will participate in the northern battlefield. If she doesn¡¯t have a sufficiently strong genius, she won¡¯t be able to suppress the situation at all.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Clearly, in the eyes of everyone, the value of the beast skin was much higher.


    Lifebound artifact! This was a special artifact-refining method.


    It was able to refine a numinous connate treasure embryo that was bound to the cultivator.


    This meant that as long as enough materials were found, one could refine a numinous connate treasure on their own. Just the value of a numinous connate treasure alone far exceeded that of the Dao Bone.


    There were not many numinous connate treasures in the Sky Kingdom.


    Not to mention a lifebound numinous connate treasure.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s guess was correct, the beast skin was an item of heritage that had been passed down since ancient times.


    The spirit light of heritage on it was so weak that it was on the verge of extinguishing.


    It could only be passed down once. After this was over, the item of heritage would dissipate.


    The spirit light of heritage was considered a secret technique. Many cultivation techniques were passed down in this way.


    Some cultivation techniques couldn¡¯t be passed down through books or words.


    It wasn¡¯t safe and efficient to pass it down through word of mouth or through jade slips.


    And the spirit light of inheritance could perfectly pass down all kinds of techniques.


    Moreover, if Zhou Feng received the spirit light of inheritance and comprehended the refining method, it would be very difficult for him to pass it down to others.


    It was tough to share the comprehension insights and spirit essence contained within it.


    ¡°However, my estate will not let the traitors off so easily!¡±


    Princess Ming¡¯s voice suddenly turned cold as she used the carrot-and-stick method.


    A faint killing intent slowly spread out and began to envelop Zhou Feng from all directions.


    ¡°Of course!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not put that killing intent in his eyes. All he had in his eyes was the method of refining his lifebound artifact.


    Cai Zhang also knew that he had no chance when he saw this.


    Princess Ming was after all the daughter of the Sky Emperor, so he couldn¡¯t keep suppressing her.


    If his guess wasn¡¯t wrong, Princess Ming had personally roped in a few geniuses, and the estate already had a group of people.


    It looked like he could only take it slowly. However, this Zhou Feng could be contacted privately.


    Thinking of this, Cai Zhang turned his head and left.


    The crowd also dispersed.

 Chapter 492 - Divine Ability! Sun Black Flame!

    Following Princess Ming¡¯s return to the estate.


    Princess Ming¡¯s Estate also began to become lively because Princess Ming also brought back many geniuses.


    These people were all personally recruited by Princess Ming.


    Because of the blockade of the forces behind the two princes, only Princess Ming would be able to recruit them without encountering any resistance personally.


    If it were someone else from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate who wanted to recruit them, they would probably encounter countless difficulties.


    However, these people had a lower aptitude than Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    It was extremely rare for someone like Zhou Feng to have such a pure bloodline in the Sky Kingdom.


    Other than the direct descendants of a few large clans, not many people had such a pure bloodline the moment they awakened.


    This was also why Cai Zhang and the others had personally come to Princess Ming¡¯s Estate to snatch people.


    However, perhaps it was because of Zhou Feng¡¯s previous actions that the others faintly ostracized him.


    Zhou Feng did not care much.


    At present, all his energy was focused on the matter of refining his lifebound artifact.


    ¡°Let¡¯s begin!¡±


    Zhou Feng was currently sitting cross-legged in a secret chamber specially used for seclusion, holding a piece of animal skin in his hand.


    After making some preparations, he placed the animal skin on his head, and the spirit light of inheritance on it immediately erupted.


    Countless strings of information began to pour into his mind.


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng felt as if he had entered a memory fragment of a certain person.


    Then, he began to watch the person refine his lifebound artifact bit by bit.


    Countless details, as well as areas that required attention, were engraved in his mind.


    The AI was recording during this process.


    Not long after, the spirit light of the inheritance disappeared.


    Zhou Feng obtained the complete method to refine his lifebound artifact.


    ¡°A connate numinous treasure embryo! A connate numinous treasure spirit! Don¡¯t I just happen to have these two things?¡±


    After he woke up, he suddenly realized that he had both things to refine his lifebound artifact.


    The first thing he needed was a connate numinous treasure embryo.


    Earlier, Zhou Feng had snatched a green lotus from the Jade Lake Holy Land.


    This green lotus was born with the laws of the great Dao, so it could be used as a connate numinous treasure embryo.


    The second thing was a blank treasure spirit.


    Actually, he also had this one, which was the artifact spirit of the Chaotian Sword.


    This Chaotian Sword originally wanted to help Zhou Feng three times before it left on its own.


    But Zhou Feng didn¡¯t let go of the Chaotian Sword. Instead, he took advantage of the moment when the Chaotian Sword was weak, forcefully sealed it, and didn¡¯t give it any Spiritual Qi.


    It just so happened that he could wash away the Chaotian Sword¡¯s artifact spirit and produce a blank artifact spirit.


    2


    This method of washing the artifact spirit happened to be in the refining method of the lifebound connate numinous treasure.


    This was because most artifact spirits would choose to capture the mature soul essence and then erase all the memories of the soul essence.


    This method was also applicable to old artifact spirits.


    In other words, Zhou Feng could actually refine the lifebound artifact right now.


    ¡°What are we waiting for?¡±


    He took out the green lotus and the sealed Chaotian Sword.


    The moment Zhou Feng took the Chaotian Sword out of his storage ring.


    The body of the sword began to tremble crazily. If Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t suppressed it in time, the Chaotian Sword would have flown into the air and disappeared.


    It was obvious that the Chaotian Sword didn¡¯t want to stay by Zhou Feng¡¯s side.


    It was impossible for it to recognize Zhou Feng as its master.


    But Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care. This kind of connate numinous treasure couldn¡¯t be compared to a lifebound connate numinous treasure. It was a perfect opportunity to transform the artifact spirit of the Chaotian Sword into an original artifact spirit.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power gushed out like a huge wave, constantly slapping the Chaotian Sword.


    The baptism of the artifact spirit! The most important thing was that the soul power was sufficient!


    The only way was to erase all the memories of the artifact spirit and then brand it with the mark of his own soul.


    Only then could the original artifact spirit be considered finished.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t seem to be able to be completed in a short time.¡±


    Zhou Feng sensed the progress of cleansing the Chaotian Sword¡¯s artifact spirit and realized it wasn¡¯t something that could be completed in a day or two.


    The mark on the Chaotian Sword was too strong. It would probably take some time to be completely washed away.


    Zhou Feng considered it for a moment and chose to break through to the Divine Ability realm first.


    He had already obtained the cultivation technique of the innate divine ability from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    In other words, if he could successfully comprehend the innate divine ability, then he would be able to break through to the Divine Ability realm again.


    Zhou Feng took out a very long feather, and there were even traces of black flames burning on it.


    This was the tail feather of the Sun-Swallowing Roc, and it contained a divine ability called the Black Sun Flame.


    The first innate divine ability of the Sun-Swallowing Roc was the Black Sun Flame.


    The first Sun-Swallowing Roc in this world had swallowed an endless amount of the Primordial Sun Fire.


    Then, a special flame suddenly appeared in its body.


    This special flame was called the Sun Black Flame, and then it became the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s innate divine ability.


    Actually, this divine ability was neither easy nor difficult to cultivate.


    To put it simply, one had to condense a large amount of Primordial Sun Fire to form a seed.


    Then, this seed would give birth to the Sun Black Flame.


    This divine ability was simply too simple for people with the Pure Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    The Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline had an extremely high resistance to the Primordial Sun Fire. Therefore, the most difficult step of this divine ability was to swallow the Primordial Sun Fire.


    When Zhou Feng cultivated in the morning, he swallowed a large amount of sun essence and a large amount of Primordial Sun Fire.


    ¡°Flame seed! Condense!¡±


    Therefore, condensing a flame seed was as simple as eating and drinking.


    After the flame seed appeared, Zhou Feng only needed to continuously mobilize the power of his bloodline to transform this seed.


    If a wisp of Black Sun Flame were born, this divine ability would be considered a success.


    ¡°AI! Find what can be optimized!¡±


    Compared to humans, the AI could observe more and be more meticulous.


    It could make some changes according to his physique and make the cultivation technique more suitable for Zhou Feng.


    Under the AI¡¯s optimization, Zhou Feng transformed a wisp of Black Sun Flame effortlessly.


    Soon, wisps of black flame danced on his fingertips.


    These wisps contained the ferocity of the Primordial Sun Fire as well as a swallowing power.


    It was as if anything that came into contact with this flame would be swallowed.


    ¡°Next is the Dragon Transformation realm!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not feel much joy when he again broke through to the Divine Ability realm.


    After all, he was at the Divine Ability realm before, and now he could be considered to be cultivating again.


    The main goal was still how to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Regarding the method to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate would definitely have it.


    It was just that he didn¡¯t know what price he would have to pay.


    Regarding the way to go in the future, Zhou Feng had a large number of plans in his mind.


    The first step was to help Princess Ming¡¯s Estate quickly stabilize its footing. Now, Zhou Feng could be considered to be connected to Princess Ming¡¯s Estate as one.


    Princess Ming¡¯s Estate had to grow stronger so that he could get more resources.

 Chapter 493 - Using the Simplest and Most Violent Method

    ¡°Is it him?¡±


    ¡°Yes! It¡¯s him! But don¡¯t be rash. After all, this person is a genius that the princess paid a huge price to keep!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Don¡¯t be rash!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A group of boys and girls were hiding at the side, discussing something in a low voice.


    Not far away was Zhou Feng, who was receiving the sun essence from the nine heavens.


    Ever since Zhou Feng joined Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, he had lived through a period of peace.


    This was because Princess Ming needed to make preparations before heading to the northern battlefield.


    During this period, he only needed to cultivate on his own.


    Of course, Zhou Feng had also received some military training. He was preparing to enter the battlefield later.


    However, the other people in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate were somewhat repulsed by him.


    This was naturally because of Zhou Feng¡¯s previous actions.


    In the eyes of others, this was like taking advantage of a burning house, and this kind of behavior indicated he would definitely betray Princess Ming¡¯s Estate in the future.


    Chaner stared at Zhou Feng like he was a thief every day.


    Lin Ge took a deep breath and asked again, ¡°It¡¯s precisely because of this! That¡¯s why we have to question him! Are you really not mistaken?¡±


    ¡°I really saw Zhou Feng interact with a few strangers with my own eyes!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I saw him too!¡±


    ¡°We were all together, and we all saw Zhou Feng interact with a few people sneakily!¡±


    Why were Lin Ge and the others gathered together at this time?


    The reason was very simple. Someone had seen Zhou Feng interact with some outsiders secretly.


    Furthermore, they had investigated after the incident. The people that Zhou Feng had interacted with were all related to the other two princes.


    This was a betrayal in Lin Ge and the others¡¯ eyes.


    Zhou Feng had a rebellious heart! The princess was not in his heart.


    Furthermore, they had seen it with their own eyes.


    Lin Ge and the others had already reported this matter to the princess¡¯ maid, Chaner.


    However, for some reason, the princess did not have any other reaction.


    Lin Ge could not take it anymore and wanted to question Zhou Feng on the spot.


    However, what they did not know was that their every move was under Zhou Feng¡¯s surveillance.


    ¡®How immature¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng breathed in and out the sun essence as he shook his head in his heart.


    These people were really too immature. Even though they were not lacking in talent, they were extremely lacking, whether it was in terms of experience or temperament.


    They had become impatient after being easily instigated.


    From this, it could be seen that the situation in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate wasn¡¯t optimistic. The talents that could be recruited were all such fledglings.


    In order to obtain more benefits, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have a moment of rest.


    He was constantly collecting information about the Sky Kingdom, as well as all sorts of people.


    He even had the AI build a database for the people living in the Sky Kingdom, collecting all the information one by one.


    Therefore, no matter what happened in the vicinity, it could not be hidden from Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    In just a few days, he had discovered more than a dozen spies in the estate.


    They were all in various positions, from the guards to the logistics, and extremely well-hidden. Some of them had already reached the position of a small managers.


    Furthermore, the princess¡¯ maids did daily management of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    That was also Chaner, the current head maid of the estate. Given her ability, there was no way she could manage the estate.


    It could be said that the estate was like a leaky sieve that was easily infiltrated by others.


    Lin Ge and the others were targeting Zhou Feng now only because someone had fanned the flames.


    ¡®Troublesome¡­ But who let me take such a huge advantage?¡¯


    Princess Ming had given him the method to refine the lifebound artifact, so this could be considered a karmic debt.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng planned to repay this karmic debt properly.


    Although he could just escape, he had a premonition.


    He would miss out on a huge opportunity if he left just like that.


    On the contrary, if he stayed behind to help Princess Ming, he would very likely obtain huge benefits.


    Because of this, Zhou Feng decided to help Princess Ming.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Lin Ge and the others finally mustered up their courage and came before Zhou Feng, wanting to question him.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng suddenly moved, and wisps of deep black flames appeared out of thin air.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re crazy!?¡±


    ¡°What are you trying to do?¡±


    The dark and deep Black Sun Flames instantly ignited two of them.


    Such a sudden situation naturally caused all sorts of exclamations and shouts.


    In the eyes of the others, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t hide it anymore and wanted to attack them directly.


    This person was simply insane. He actually made a move right here in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate?


    Was he f*cking crazy?


    Lin Ge was enraged and wanted to retaliate immediately.


    However, in the next second, he realized that he couldn¡¯t move.


    A wave of spiderweb-like Blood Qi was firmly trapping him on the spot.


    ¡°Help!¡±


    ¡°Someone come!¡±


    Shouts started to ring out and only then did everyone realize how laughable the thought of questioning Zhou Feng was.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had already far exceeded their imaginations.


    He just stood there while all of them were imprisoned.


    With such a difference in strength, perhaps Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need to waste much energy to kill all of them.


    ¡°What are you doing! Quickly stop!¡±


    As the head maid of the estate, Chaner was naturally the first to arrive.


    When she saw the scene before her, she was instantly enraged.


    Previously, she had already received a report saying that there was something wrong with Zhou Feng, but she had not reported it to the princess because she believed in the princess¡¯ foresight.


    Since the princess would actually spend such a huge price on recruiting Zhou Feng, there was definitely a reason.


    And Zhou Feng was definitely not a fool. He had just obtained the method to refine his lifebound artifact.


    How stupid was he to betray Princess Ming¡¯s Estate after that?


    One had to know that no matter what, the princess was still the daughter of the Sky Emperor.


    If Zhou Feng really did such a thing, Princess Ming only needed to cry and complain in front of the Sky Emperor.


    Zhou Feng would definitely die! Princess Ming¡¯s true backer was a father in the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    But now, Zhou Feng¡¯s actions made Chaner start to suspect.


    ¡°Just watch!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not explain at all. He just told Chaner to stand there and watch the show.


    ¡°What!? Do you know what you¡¯re saying? Quickly stop! These are all geniuses that the princess personally recruited!¡±


    Looking at his unhurried appearance and then at the two geniuses that the Black Sun Flames were constantly burning, Chaner felt like she was going crazy.


    ¡°Let go of them!¡±


    Chaner couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer and directly chose to make her move.


    A tiger¡¯s roar suddenly sounded.


    As Princess Ming¡¯s maid, Chaner¡¯s cultivation was also at the Divine Ability realm.


    This time, in order to stop Zhou Feng, she directly used her own innate divine ability.


    Tiger Roar!


    What Chaner had awakened was the Scarlet Flame Tiger bloodline.


    However, her awakened innate divine ability was not Scarlet Flame but the relatively unorthodox Tiger Roar.


    ¡®This Tiger Roar should be a soundwave attack.¡¯


    It was very difficult to guard against this divine ability.


    Tiger Roar could even make the enemy bleed from all seven orifices.

 Chapter 494 - Equal Status?

    An invisible sound wave bypassed countless people and specifically targeted Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng instantly felt his internal organs begin to vibrate crazily.


    Chaner had already determined that he had gone crazy, so she wanted to subdue him.


    Zhou Feng was standing in the same place, triggering the passive Immovable Mountain. In addition, his physical body was quite terrifying, so Tiger Roar did not have any effect at all.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Chaner looked at Zhou Feng, whose expression did not change, and she was shocked.


    This¡­ This was impossible!


    How did he do this?


    Even if Zhou Feng had broken through to the Divine Ability realm in an extremely short period, it was still impossible to withstand Tiger Roar.


    ¡®As expected, a simple and crude method needs to bear some side effects.¡¯


    Zhou Feng sighed in his heart as he activated the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in his body.


    Ever since he broke through to the Divine Ability realm once again, he had yet to test just how strong he was.


    The aura that belonged solely to the Sun-Swallowing Roc soared wildly, and wisps of Black Sun Flames started to burn on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Zhou Feng stood calmly on the spot. His black hair fluttered in the wind as an illusory image appeared.


    Chaner immediately felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. Her body and mind felt cold. Just the aura alone was enough to make her unable to move.


    Zhou Feng suddenly threw a punch.


    Chaner did not even have the time to dodge before she was sent flying.


    The head maid of the estate was sent flying by a punch!


    ¡°Too strong!¡±


    ¡°Such strength! Who else but Princess Ming is his match?¡±


    The guards who rushed over were stunned when they saw this scene.


    The strength that Zhou Feng displayed was too exaggerated.


    If they remembered correctly, before Zhou Feng entered Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, he was only in the Soul Altar realm? Or was he in the Purple Mansion realm?


    How long had it been? Not only had he broken through to the Divine Ability realm, but his strength was also not weaker than Chaner¡¯s.


    Even when Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline had awakened, they already knew that his talent was monstrous.


    However, when they witnessed it with their own eyes, this sort of unerasable gap still made them feel powerless.


    ¡°You¡¯d better give me an explanation!¡±


    Suddenly, a cold voice entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    Princess Ming was standing opposite Zhou Feng, and her face was covered in frost.


    The same sun and black flames slowly rose from Princess Ming¡¯s body.


    ¡°Explain? That¡¯s easy!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face became serious.


    ¡°These people are all problematic! Since I chose to join your faction, I have to fulfill some duties!¡±


    He stated that he wanted to catch spies.


    As for why he did it, it was actually very simple.


    Zhou Feng needed to build up his prestige. Only then could he command the others in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Since he had chosen to help Princess Ming gain a firm foothold, Zhou Feng naturally had to show off his skills. However, it was difficult for him to do so by himself.


    Hence, building up his prestige was very important.


    ¡°Is there a problem?¡±


    Princess Ming used her deathly silent eyes to look at the two people who were still being burned by Zhou Feng¡¯s Black Sun Flames.


    ¡°To put it simply, they¡¯re spies.


    ¡°I¡¯m only doing this to clear away some obstacles. It¡¯s just that my methods are a little rough.¡±


    Zhou Feng wore his fake smile again.


    ¡°No! I absolutely did not betray Princess Ming¡¯s Estate!¡±


    ¡°Your Highness! You know it! You personally recruited me!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As soon as Zhou Feng finished speaking, the two people immediately began to cry out their grievances.


    These two people were really miserable. Zhou Feng had suddenly restrained them, and his black flames burned them bit by bit.


    Zhou Feng had fine control over the flames, so the two poor fellows were in a state that was worse than death.


    The feeling of being slowly devoured by the Black Sun Flames was really terrifying.


    Princess Ming looked at Zhou Feng at this time, obviously waiting for Zhou Feng to explain herself.


    ¡°Then why did you two incite these people to find trouble with me?¡±


    When Zhou Feng heard these two people¡¯s complaints, he didn¡¯t panic.


    ¡°I¡­ I didn¡¯t! I¡ª¡±


    One of them immediately retorted subconsciously.


    But just as he opened his mouth, his entire body was completely engulfed by the black flames.


    ¡°This is the result of lying. This person was too stubborn, so let¡¯s try the other one,¡± Zhou Feng said with a smile.


    ¡°D-Dead?¡±


    The sound of swallowing saliva was particularly clear at this moment.


    Zhou Feng dared to make a move in the estate and killed a person in front of the princess.


    And this person was also a person from the estate.


    Zhou Feng claimed that he was a spy, yet he didn¡¯t even bring out the slightest piece of evidence.


    ¡°Explain!¡±


    Princess Ming was already beginning to gnash her teeth.


    ¡°Are you going to speak or not?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the person who was still being burned by the black flames.


    ¡°I¡­ I¡­¡±


    This person was scared silly.


    ¡®Madman! This is a madman! How dare he!?¡¯ he cursed in his heart.


    ¡®How did he find out? And why did he dare to do this? Isn¡¯t he afraid of Princess Ming¡¯s punishment?¡¯


    Up until now, this person had no idea how he had been exposed.


    He was extremely flustered at this moment, facing Zhou Feng¡¯s questioning.


    ¡°Forget it if you don¡¯t want to confess¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face revealed an indifferent expression.


    ¡°No! I admit it! I admit it!¡±


    When this person saw the expression on Zhou Feng¡¯s face, he almost peed a few drops.


    He confessed under the immense psychological pressure because this madman would not spare him.


    Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t care whether the other party confessed or not. If you didn¡¯t speak, you would die.


    If he confessed, he might have a chance to survive.


    This person was still young, and his mentality wasn¡¯t up to par. He confessed and even wanted to explain himself for doing so.


    ¡°But I¡¯ve never done anything to harm the estate.


    ¡°Your Highness! Please¡ª¡±


    Unexpectedly, this person was burned to ashes before he could even finish his sentence.


    The person who made the move was not Zhou Feng but the expressionless Princess Ming.


    ¡°Other than these two, there are more than a dozen spies in the estate. Do you need me to act personally?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Princess Ming, maintaining a smile on his face.


    Princess Ming looked deeply at Zhou Feng, her tone calm. ¡°What do you want to do?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s very simple. I want more cultivation resources. So, I naturally hope that Princess Ming¡¯s Estate will become better and better!¡±


    Zhou Feng knew that now was the time to negotiate terms.


    He didn¡¯t want to be a servant of the estate but someone who cooperated with Princess Ming.


    This had to be made clear.


    At that moment, Princess Ming sensed the ambition hidden in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    Such a person could not stay in the estate forever. Even the Sky Kingdom could not trap such a person.


    That was why this person would do this.


    He wanted to use Princess Ming¡¯s Estate to break through quickly and then pursue a higher realm.


    Princess Ming¡¯s Estate was just a stepping stone for Zhou Feng.


    Princess Ming instantly understood Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.


    ¡°Do you have the qualifications?¡±


    After understanding Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts, Princess Ming only gave one sentence.


    What great guts! He actually wanted to be on equal footing with her?

 Chapter 495 - Astonishing Learning Ability

    ¡°Of course I have the qualifications!¡±


    Zhou Feng was still smiling in the face of Princess Ming¡¯s question.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    Princess Ming¡¯s body immediately emitted a terrifying aura, and the shadow of the Sun-Swallowing Roc appeared in her shadow.


    Her white and tender little hand moved slightly.


    Instantly, a great Roc spread its wings and split heaven and earth, waving its claws to shatter the void.


    Zhou Feng did not move. He continued to fight on the spot, relying on his current body to block this attack.


    At the same time, the passive Immovable Mountain and Grownable Skin blocked half of the damage.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng was able to forcefully block Princess Ming¡¯s attack from the front.


    ¡°Continue!¡±


    Zhou Feng even opened his mouth and asked Princess Ming to continue to attack.


    He knew that strength was one¡¯s biggest capital to obtain an equal status in cooperation.


    If one didn¡¯t have enough strength, any other factors would be fake.


    In the next second, Princess Ming¡¯s eyes suddenly became vertical pupils, and a pair of wings grew out from her back.


    ¡°Her Highness¡¯ bloodline has mutated! Looks like she¡¯s preparing to go all out!¡±


    ¡°What on earth is this person trying to do?¡±


    ¡°Has he gone mad? A mere Divine Ability cultivator wants to fight Her Highness?¡±


    ¡­


    When the others in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate saw this, they also knew that the princess had gone all out.


    This was because only during a battle would the princess become like this.


    Moreover, she didn¡¯t say a word and put all her energy into the battle.


    The princess was a mighty force in this state, and she was also very angry.


    Zhou Feng felt a dangerous aura.


    Because of the advantage of her bloodline, Princess Ming had almost stepped into the Divine Ability realm at birth.


    Moreover, because she had a Dao Enlightenment father, she didn¡¯t lack all kinds of cultivation resources.


    Therefore, Princess Ming had broken through to the 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm a long time ago, and she was wholeheartedly comprehending the great Dao¡¯s laws.


    There were also people who said that Princess Ming had already awakened three innate divine abilities, each mastered to perfection.


    According to the information Zhou Feng had collected, Princess Ming was almost equivalent to the strongest batch of people in the Sky Kingdom.


    Even the backers of the other two princes did not dare to confront Princess Ming directly. They could only play dirty tricks behind her back or be arrogant in the kingdom.


    If they were outside the kingdom, they would basically have their tails tucked between their legs when facing Princess Ming.


    Zhou Feng circulated all sorts of information in his mind, and then he felt a gust of wind the next second.


    Princess Ming, who had wings on her back, left an afterimage on the spot.


    The others didn¡¯t see Princess Ming¡¯s actions at all, and a fist rushed toward Zhou Feng.


    It was obvious that Princess Ming was prepared to fight Zhou Feng in close combat.


    The Sun-Swallowing Roc was an expert in close combat. Its body was so terrifying that it could kill a true dragon. After all, this was an ancient daemon.


    Zhou Feng reacted quickly and blocked the punch in an instant.


    A gust of wind blew his hair to the other side.


    The surging power almost made him lose his balance.


    Princess Ming¡¯s physical body was even more terrifying than his!


    Even with the Grownable Skin that reduced the impact of the power by 10%, he almost lost his balance just now.


    Just how strong was this physical body?


    The sound of a great Roc¡¯s long cry rang out.


    Princess Ming punched out more than 100 times with an expressionless face.


    That delicate-looking body of hers was like the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s reincarnation. It trampled through the nine heavens, and its black flames continuously spread out in all directions.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was not bad at all.


    His face still had the same fake smile from the beginning to the end.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have predicted every move in advance and received Princess Ming¡¯s attack head-on.


    He even withstood that terrifying force.


    There was also a suspicious point. The ground was filled with cracks due to the exchanges, yet the patch of earth under Zhou Feng¡¯s feet had not changed at all.


    Just the aftershock from the collision of their bodies made the onlookers continuously retreat, and even the estate was on the verge of collapse.


    ¡°What¡­ What happened again? This is Princess Ming¡¯s Estate?¡±


    ¡°Someone is fighting in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate? And it¡¯s Princess Ming?¡±


    ¡°Who is it? Who has the guts to fight with Princess Ming in her estate?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Others immediately noticed the abnormal situation in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    After all, there were so many people in the Sky Kingdom. It was hard not to notice it.


    Soon, someone discovered someone was fighting with Princess Ming in the estate.


    This kind of thing could be said to be rare in 100 years, so the non-cultivators instantly felt an itch in their hearts.


    They wanted to investigate.


    Cai Zhang also wanted to rely on his cultivation to check the situation in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Now that Princess Ming had returned to the country, her every move was worth observing.


    The fight for the throne wasn¡¯t as simple as they had imagined.


    However, Cai Zhang only wanted to fly into the air to see what was happening in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Princess Ming noticed it at the first moment, and a dark sun condensed and descended in an instant.


    The sun formed from the Sun Black Flames hung in the air.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Cai Zhang¡¯s entire body immediately burst into flames as he let out a blood-curdling scream.


    After doing all this, Princess Ming¡¯s gaze returned to Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Let¡¯s continue!¡±


    Princess Ming seemed to be completely fine, but Zhou Feng looked a little miserable. His entire body was green and red, and there were quite a number of fist prints on his face.


    In this purely physical collision, Zhou Feng was still a little lacking.


    After all, Princess Ming was a 9th Cycle Dragon Transformation cultivator1, and her physical body had undergone many transformations.


    In addition, the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline was pure, almost equivalent to atavism.


    This put Zhou Feng at a disadvantage.


    If it weren¡¯t for Zhou Feng¡¯s almost invincible combat skills and the support of the AI, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to hold on for long.


    And the most infuriating point was that Princess Ming seemed to aim for Zhou Feng¡¯s head specifically.


    That kind of posture seemed to say, ¡°Want to be my equal? Who do you think you are?¡±


    The fake smile on Zhou Feng¡¯s face had slowly dissipated, returning to his original calm expressionless face.


    The injuries on his body were also frantically recovering.


    ¡®Another punch!¡¯


    This punch was aimed directly at Zhou Feng¡¯s head again.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed.


    He didn¡¯t dodge at all and met it head-on.


    His Blood Qi then circulated rapidly!


    After being passively beaten for so long, his various passive skills were finally stacked.


    It was also time to unleash his full strength.


    Princess Ming was not aware that Zhou Feng was collecting data during their battle; this even included some information regarding the use of power.


    The use of bloodline power, the circulation of Blood Qi, and combat habits, the AI had recorded them all.


    And this so-called mutation was also continuously analyzed.


    According to the analysis, as long as the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline was pure enough, a mutation could be achieved, which could give a huge boost to strength or speed.


    ¡°What!? His bloodline has also mutated?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! How long has this person been cultivating?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The onlookers suddenly realized that some feathers had grown on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    His eyes also became vertical pupils, which was clearly a mutation.

 Chapter 496 - Bloodline Alliance

    Zhou Feng had only cultivated for a short period, so why did he undergo mutation?


    Could it be that he had secretly learned it during the battle just now?


    Impossible! How could he have secretly learned it?


    All kinds of questions kept popping up in everyone¡¯s minds.


    ¡®How can he use the Natal Roc Physique!?¡¯


    Even Princess Ming was shocked.


    The mutation that the others were talking about was actually called the Natal Roc Physique.


    This could be considered an instinct!


    As long as the purity of the bloodline was high enough, one would be able to use the corresponding daemonic physique.


    This was the characteristic of the daemons that came from a certain part of the body.


    Princess Ming¡¯s current appearance was due to the Natal Roc Physique.


    This kind of daemonic body didn¡¯t require too much consumption, but it could greatly increase one¡¯s battle prowess.


    Unless one had undergone special training, it was impossible to develop it.


    ¡®How did he do it?¡¯


    Regardless of what Princess Ming was thinking, Zhou Feng had already unleashed his full strength.


    The two of them directly fought from the ground to the sky.


    A pair of wings grew out of Zhou Feng¡¯s back.


    Because neither of them had used any divine abilities, Zhou Feng was not at a disadvantage.


    However, if Princess Ming used her innate divine ability, he might not be able to withstand it.


    Unless he used the power of the Human Emperor bloodline and exposed the Great Void Primordial Qi, otherwise, he would not be able to defeat Princess Ming at all.


    ¡°It¡¯s him! Zhou Feng? The genius who was recruited into Princess Ming¡¯s Estate!¡±


    2


    ¡°What? It¡¯s him? Then why is he fighting with Princess Ming?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know either, but this person is actually able to fight with Princess Ming in close combat, and they¡¯re on par.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After the two of them rose into the air, everyone in the entire Sky Kingdom knew who Princess Ming was fighting.


    After learning of Zhou Feng¡¯s identity, almost everyone was shocked by the potential that Zhou Feng displayed.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t this person arrive in the kingdom not long ago?


    ¡®Moreover, it seems that he joined Princess Ming¡¯s Estate a few days ago.


    ¡®But why was his strength exaggerated to such an extent?


    ¡®Could this be a prodigy?¡¯


    ¡°Stop!¡±


    Princess Ming felt that there were more gazes behind her, and she immediately stopped fighting.


    If this battle continued, it was likely that many secrets would be exposed.


    Moreover, Princess Ming had completely acknowledged Zhou Feng in her heart.


    This kind of talent and combat ability gave him the qualifications to be on equal footing with her.


    If Princess Ming had Zhou Feng¡¯s help, she believed that she would soon be able to gain a foothold on the northern battlefield.


    After obtaining sufficient military merits, she would be able to develop her own forces.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any thoughts of continuing the battle. After all, there was no benefit in continuing the battle. He was only doing this to fight for his own interests.


    Since Princess Ming had already thought it through, he didn¡¯t want to continue fighting.


    ¡°My name is Turin. You have the right to sign a bloodline alliance contract with me!¡±


    Princess Ming sensed that a few familiar auras were getting restless, so she was straightforward.


    Telling her real name to Zhou Feng was also a form of recognition.


    Moreover, she chose to sign a bloodline alliance contract with him in public.


    The so-called bloodline alliance contract was a contract of equality.


    It was a very ancient contract, a contract created by the daemons in ancient times in order to unite against the humans.


    As long as they signed the contract, it could not be reverted.


    And they could not take the initiative to harm their allies. Once they backstabbed their allies, they would suffer a backlash.


    In fact, the bloodline alliance contract was a very loose contract. There were many ways to bypass this contract.


    This bloodline alliance contract was more symbolic than practical.


    Princess Turin wanted to show it to others.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Zhou Feng obviously knew about this bloodline alliance contract, so he agreed without hesitation.


    Signing a bloodline alliance contract was nothing to him.


    It wasn¡¯t even painful.


    This bloodline alliance contract was signed based on the bloodline in his body.


    He could even abandon the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline if it was an emergency.


    1


    If he didn¡¯t even have a bloodline, this bloodline alliance contract would be equivalent to nothing.


    And the benefits of signing a bloodline alliance contract were obvious.


    As long as he signed a bloodline alliance contract with Princess Turin, he would be able to become a direct subordinate.


    Most of the resources of the royal clan would be open to him.


    The benefits were great, so Zhou Feng agreed without hesitation.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    A strange light flashed in Turin¡¯s eyes upon seeing how decisive Zo Feng was.


    Obviously, she did not expect Zhou Feng to agree so decisively.


    Therefore, under the witness of countless people, a drop of blood dripped from their fingertips, and an ancient voice began to ring out.


    This voice seemed to come from the ancient wilderness, and an ancient alliance contract was successfully signed.


    Zhou Feng immediately felt that he could sense Turin¡¯s location more clearly.


    It was rather strange for Turin as she couldn¡¯t determine Zhou Feng¡¯s exact location through the contract.


    An ethereal feeling lingered around Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡®There¡¯s a secret?;


    Turin instantly realized that Zhou Feng had a secret, and it wasn¡¯t just any secret.


    Perhaps the strength that Zhou Feng had displayed just now was only a part of it?


    At this moment, Turin thought a lot but didn¡¯t have the intention to get to the bottom of it because no matter what, Zhou Feng was still her ally.


    The more unfathomable an ally was, the more advantageous it would be for her.


    As for what schemes Zhou Feng had up his sleeves? Turin was even more unafraid.


    As long as Zhou Feng didn¡¯t break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, any schemes and tricks would be useless.


    She had a Dao Enlightenment father, after all.


    2


    ¡°Let¡¯s go. Follow me to the palace. We can meet my Royal Father and cultivate the visualization technique!¡±


    Turin no longer felt cold and aloof. Instead, she treated Zhou Feng with more enthusiasm.


    Perhaps it was because she treated Zhou Feng as an equal.


    Previously, when Turin faced Zhou Feng and the others from the estate, she had always felt distant and aloof.


    It was as if two people from two different classes were talking.


    Now, she was no longer like that when talking to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Good!¡±


    Zhou Feng no longer maintained his fake smile and returned to his original dead-fish face.


    2


    ¡®Visualization technique!¡¯


    He could finally obtain the visualization technique!


    After scheming for so long, he would finally obtain the complete visualization technique.


    As long as he obtained the complete visualization technique, his soul power would be able to integrate and increase by a large margin.


    The increase in soul power also meant that the computational power of the AI would increase.


    By then, the AI would be able to calculate all kinds of cultivation techniques with less effort.


    The enhancement of the AI¡¯s computational ability was undoubtedly vital to Zhou Feng.


    Only when the AI¡¯s computational ability was sufficiently large could he complete his initial goal step by step.


    ¡®My innate divine ability is Longevity. If I can analyze what causes longevity from my innate divine ability¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng had never forgotten his innate ability.


    Previously, when the AI¡¯s computational ability was insufficient, it was unable to divert its attention from its innate ability.


    What about after its computational ability increased?

 Chapter 497 - Visualization Technique: Obtained!

    Princess Ming¡¯s Estate regained its calm.


    At this time, the power of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate fell directly into the hands of Zhou Feng. He removed all the spies with unreasonable means. He didn¡¯t even provide a piece of evidence.


    As long as he thought that there was something wrong with a person, he would detain and interrogate them.


    Anyway, with the analysis of the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation, there was basically no mistake in detaining them.


    Chaner, the head maid, had also become Zhou Feng¡¯s assistant.


    Everyone in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate was now trembling with fear when they faced Zhou Feng.


    There was nothing they could do. Zhou Feng¡¯s methods were extreme and brutal.


    Moreover, there was no mistake at all. No matter what he did, there was basically no mistake at all.


    ¡°Rise!¡±


    Chaner was currently bowing respectfully to Zhou Feng.


    Compared to her previous attitude, there was a huge difference.


    In fact, when she treated Zhou Feng, it was as if she was facing the master of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, Turin.


    This actually had something to do with the habits of the Sky Kingdom.


    When faced with stronger and more capable people, the others would always subconsciously submit.


    If it was any other place, if Zhou Feng dared to do this, he would have already caused a lot of complaints.


    However, it was not the case here. In fact, the citizens preferred to have an iron-blooded leader.


    This was because this kind of leader usually would lead everyone to obtain more benefits.


    In fact, Zhou Feng was indeed a qualified leader.


    After eliminating all the traitors, he naturally began to give out carrots.


    Everyone in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate could ask for cultivation pointers.


    That¡¯s right!


    Zhou Feng had instructed everyone in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate in just a few days, and they had improved significantly.


    Otherwise, the people in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate would not have lowered their heads before Zhou Feng so easily.


    ¡°These are the resources that Princess Ming¡¯s Estate has prepared at the moment, as well as the information that you requested to collect.¡±


    Chaner took out an account book and waited respectfully for Zhou Feng¡¯s instructions.


    Zhou Feng casually took the account book and flipped through it.


    The AI recorded and analyzed all the information on the account book in less than three seconds.


    ¡°There¡¯s basically no problem. Continue to carry out the instructions I gave you earlier.


    ¡°Right, leave a drop of your blood.¡±


    Zhou Feng maintained his expressionless face.


    With the help of the AI, this kind of miscellaneous task did not take him much time.


    ¡°Blood? Alright!¡±


    Chaner did not know what Zhou Feng wanted to do, but she still did it. Just a drop of blood was nothing at all.


    As for using the blood to cast a curse? That was even more impossible.


    After this period, Chaner understood Zhou Feng¡¯s personality clearly.


    If she made a mistake, Zhou Feng might make a move. He wouldn¡¯t even bother to listen to her explanation.


    ¡®The blood of the Scarlet Flame Tiger¡­¡¯


    As Zhou Feng collected Chaner¡¯s blood, the AI¡¯s database had another reference material.


    After successfully becoming the caretaker of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, Zhou Feng could finally use the AI¡¯s advantage and conduct all kinds of research.


    He had not instructed the people of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate just to win over their hearts. The most important point was to collect all kinds of data.


    Then, through the AI¡¯s big data analysis, he would prepare for the bloodline he was about to create.


    1


    At the same time, he would analyze how the bloodline inheritance was created and passed down.


    Why could the bloodline contain such terrifying power?


    If he could decrypt all the bloodlines, would he be able to obtain even more power?


    ¡°Zhou Feng, follow me to the palace. You can cultivate the visualization technique now.¡±


    Turin¡¯s voice suddenly sounded.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body shook. He could finally cultivate the visualization technique.


    He immediately followed the voice and saw Turin in the air.


    ¡°Remember, when you visualize the ancestor, you must not have any distracting thoughts.


    ¡°You must not do anything else.


    ¡°And¡­¡±


    Turin¡¯s entire body was covered in a black gauze dress, giving her a sense of mystery compared to before.


    However, there was a hint of concern in her tone.


    She was warning Zhou Feng about something.


    Simply put, he did not need to talk to anyone after entering the palace.


    He only needed to visualize the statue of the Sun-Swallowing Roc.


    The visualization technique was contained within.


    Moreover, he only needed to visualize it once, and the visualization technique would be imprinted in Zhou Feng¡¯s bloodline.


    After cultivating the visualization technique, he would immediately mobilize the people of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    They would head to the northern battlefield.


    The situation on the northern battlefield was not optimistic, so Zhou Feng had to speed up.


    ¡°Got it!¡±


    Zhou Feng had also heard a little about the northern battlefield.


    He had heard that the one fighting against the Sky Kingdom was the Mammoth Kingdom.


    Different from the Sky Kingdom, the citizens of the Mammoth Kingdom all cultivated the ancient Mammoth bloodline.


    Their bodies were like real mammoths¡¯, and they were tough to deal with.


    ¡°Be careful!¡±


    Turin thought for a moment, and in the end, she only told him to be careful.


    There seemed to be another meaning in her tone.


    Zhou Feng pondered for a moment and immediately guessed Turin¡¯s true thoughts.


    It was to be careful of the people behind the second prince and the third prince.


    Ever since he had officially joined Princess Ming¡¯s Estate and signed a bloodline alliance contract with Turin, the forces behind the second and the third princes had faintly put him on their target list.


    This time, it was a good opportunity for the princess to head to the northern battlefield.


    ¡­


    After Turin¡¯s warning, Zhou Feng entered the palace alone.


    There was almost no one else in the palace.


    He didn¡¯t know how he entered the palace either.


    After the seventh and eighth halls, he arrived in front of a statue.


    This statue was a lifelike Sun-Swallowing Roc that was swallowing the sun.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    The Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was instantly activated. He seemed to have fallen into some kind of dream.


    Then, the scene of the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s battle played.


    In the dream, the Sun-Swallowing Roc was like a mountain range flying in the air.


    The mountains would collapse and the sea would evaporate with a casual touch.


    Countless images condensed into the majestic might of the Sun-Swallowing Roc.


    The next second, Zhou Feng immediately woke up.


    ¡®This is the visualization technique?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng woke up, he noticed that his soul power had increased slightly.


    Then, a moving picture appeared in his mind?


    Whenever he wanted to see the picture, his soul power would be consumed.


    ¡®How does this work? And did this really rely on the inheritance of the bloodline?¡¯


    Since Zhou Feng had just obtained the visualization technique, the surroundings began to faintly reject him.


    It was as if they were telling him to leave this place as soon as possible.


    ¡®Wait, my soul¡­¡¯


    He suddenly frowned as he felt that his soul seemed to have been affected.


    He could feel that he had an inexplicable good impression of the Sun-Swallowing Roc.


    Was it because of the visualization?

 Chapter 498 - The Discovery of Longevity Substances Translator: EndlessFa

    There was a problem with the visualization!


    Or it could be said that there was a problem with the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s visualization!


    Zhou Feng immediately felt that something was wrong.


    ¡®If I keep visualizing like this¡­¡¯


    The AI calculated that if he kept practicing the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s visualization, it was very likely that he would think that he was a descendant of the Sun-Swallowing Roc.


    And he would embrace his Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    If it was someone who had the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, this wouldn¡¯t actually be a disadvantage. After all, they had already decided to walk the path of bloodline cultivation.


    But if it was Zhou Feng, this wouldn¡¯t work.


    His Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline was only temporary.


    It was just something he had done temporarily in order to obtain various cultivation techniques.


    Therefore, this visualization technique could not be directly visualized.


    It had to be modified and optimized!


    ¡®AI, when I¡¯m visualizing, tell me briefly what changes have occurred to my body,¡¯ Zhou Feng muttered in his heart.


    It had to be changed! He could not directly cultivate this visualization technique.


    It had to become his own.


    As he thought of this, he walked out of the palace.


    ¡®Trouble is coming!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body suddenly gave a warning.


    Someone suddenly bumped into him from behind.


    This instantly woke him up, and his body took a few steps to the right.


    The person behind him directly pounced on nothing.


    ¡®Time to leave¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not question the person behind him at all but directly left at high speed. He did not even give them a chance to try to incite him.


    ¡°What should we do?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s fine. The people from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate are leaving the country today. There will always be a chance!¡±


    The two people behind looked at each other for a moment before hurriedly disappearing from the streets.


    ¡­


    ¡°Let¡¯s set off immediately!¡± Zhou Feng ordered Chaner and Lin Ge to lead the troops toward the northern battlefield.


    Meanwhile, he stayed behind to cover the rear.


    Although Princess Ming¡¯s Estate and the others did not know what Zhou Feng wanted to do, they did not ask any further.


    They all followed Zhou Feng¡¯s orders to advance.


    ¡­


    ¡°Quickly!¡±


    ¡°The people from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate are right in front. Our mission is to exhaust them!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s no need to fight to the death. We just need to exhaust them as much as possible!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The group of people had been following behind Princess Ming¡¯s Estate ever since they left the country.


    To them, they only needed to expend the manpower of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate continuously.


    They didn¡¯t need to fight to the death because their goal wasn¡¯t to eliminate the people of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    2


    They just wanted to make sure that the people of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate didn¡¯t have extra energy to put into the battle.


    ¡°Wait? What¡¯s this?¡±


    ¡°Black Sun Flame? We¡¯ve been discovered!¡±


    ¡°Run!¡±


    Unfortunately, the black flame that devoured everything came too quickly.


    In less than three breaths, everyone had lost their lives.


    At this time, Zhou Feng slowly emerged from a dark angle.


    ¡°Excellent experimental material.¡±


    With a simple clench of his right hand, countless amounts of flesh and blood were absorbed into a gourd.


    ¡°Project Longevity can commence!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the location of the Sky Kingdom¡¯s capital.


    The impulse that he had been suppressing could finally be released.


    When he was in the Sky Kingdom¡¯s capital, he had always felt that someone was spying on him.


    It made him constantly feel a kind of pressure.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng could only be careful in his actions. Most of the time, he could only restrain himself.


    But after leaving the capital of the Sky Kingdom, the feeling of being spied on was slowly disappearing.


    He was finally able to display his strength.


    As for the so-called Project Longevity, it was a plan that Zhou Feng had to develop his own bloodline.


    Other than obtaining the visualization technique, he also obtained the technique to develop his innate divine ability from Turin.


    The technique of tracing the source!


    This was a technique to trace the source from the bloodline. It was able to find the divine ability fragments hidden in the bloodline.


    The so-called innate divine ability was actually the divine ability fragment that was the most common in the bloodline.


    These divine ability fragments were divine abilities that one¡¯s ancestors had once cultivated and fused into the bloodline.


    However, this origin-tracing technique could only be carried out by relying on a powerful soul power.


    Without powerful soul power, it was completely impossible to trace the divine ability fragments in your bloodline.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s words, the soul power could barely be considered to be able to use the origin-tracing technique.


    Previously, he had tried to use the origin-tracing technique to activate his innate divine ability.


    However, he failed.


    In the end, after the analysis of the AI, it was probably because the divine ability fragments contained in his bloodline were too rare.


    Moreover, his current bloodline was that of the Sun-Swallowing Roc. He couldn¡¯t activate his original divine ability.


    Then, Zhou Feng discovered that there was a special substance among the many daemonic bloodlines.


    These substances were named longevity substances.


    It was precisely because of these longevity substances that one¡¯s lifespan would greatly increase after awakening a daemonic bloodline.


    Why were the people of the Sky Kingdom so keen on awakening their daemonic bloodline?


    Other than the examples he gave before, there was another very important point.


    People who awakened a daemonic bloodline usually lived longer.


    Not to mention the Sun-Swallowing Roc, a top-tier great daemonic bloodline. It was equivalent to increasing one¡¯s lifespan by a few hundred years.


    This was because once these bloodlines were awakened, they would give birth to some longevity substances that would keep the body young.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s plan was to extract these longevity substances and fuse them into his original bloodline.


    In the end, he would get rid of the Human Emperor and the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodlines.


    Then, he would obtain his own bloodline.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had a strong premonition that these longevity substances would greatly help him comprehend the great Dao of Longevity.


    1


    ¡°The first step! How to extract the longevity substances! The experiment begins!¡±


    Zhou Feng held the gourd filled with flesh and blood while having the AI record the data inside.


    In the meantime, the slaughterfest officially began. Zhou Feng killed all the people who targeted Princess Ming¡¯s Estate one by one.


    Furthermore, all flesh and blood were extracted.


    The more Zhou Feng knew about the Sky Kingdom, the bolder he became.


    Although the cultivators of the Sky Kingdom were very strong, almost all of them relied on their bloodlines to break through. The advantages were obvious, but the disadvantages were also very obvious.


    As long as one found a way, it was really easy to target them. That was especially the case for people like Zhou Feng, who had an AI.


    As long as they analyzed all kinds of bloodlines, they would be able to find their weaknesses.


    Zhou Feng gradually began to become crazy.


    It was only because of the discovery of the longevity substances that his mentality had changed a little.


    At that moment, the carriage of the estate was completely peaceful.


    ¡°Sister Chaner, what do you think the leader is doing now?¡±


    Lin Ge was a little bored on the way, so he took the initiative to mention Zhou Feng.


    After all, Zhou Feng had not been seen since the beginning. It really made people curious about where Zhou Feng had gone.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know. Don¡¯t you know the style of the leader? We just need to hurry!¡±


    Chaner did not overthink. As long as the carriage safely arrived at the northern battlefield, their mission would be considered complete.


    Zhou Feng was so strong that only the princess had the strength to fight him.


    This kind of strength was enough to erase all her worries.

 Chapter 499 - Making Things Difficult and Encountering Obstacles!

    North City was located in the northernmost part of the Sky Kingdom, which was also at the border with the Mammoth Kingdom.


    Due to the discovery of the Blood Essence Mine here, the Sky Kingdom and the Mammoth Kingdom had directly engaged in a war over the Blood Essence Mine.


    The Blood Essence Mine yielded a unique mineral.


    It was a special mineral that was formed from the blood essence of great ancient daemons after more than 1,000 years of evolution.


    Its function was to activate and purify the bloodline.


    For people who cultivated bloodlines in the Eastern Land, this mineral was equivalent to a miraculous pill for cultivation.


    After all, cultivating bloodline power was equivalent to increasing one¡¯s cultivation.


    As long as one could continuously activate the bloodline in their body, their cultivation would be able to increase slowly.


    It was much faster than slowly breathing in and out Spiritual Qi.


    However, because both sides did not give in to each other, the Blood Essence Mine at their current location had not been mined.


    Zhou Feng led the group of people from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate and slowly arrived at North City.


    ¡°I¡¯ll leave the encampment to you. I¡¯ll report to the main camp first,¡± Zhou Feng said as he collected all the information on the surroundings.


    Although his heart was filled with the idea of extracting the longevity substances, he still needed to do this kind of thing.


    Princess Turin seemed to be entangled in another matter, so his task now was to lead the people of the estate to stand firmly in North City and obtain as many war merits as possible.


    Only enough war merits could be the capital for Princess Turin to ascend to the throne.


    During this process, Zhou Feng could also obtain enough cultivation resources.


    This was because war merits could be exchanged for all cultivation resources to a certain extent.


    Unlike the sky coins that were mixed with Daemonic Qi, war merits were the true currency.


    ¡®Longevity substance! It is the key to achieving physical longevity!


    ¡®However, ordinary containers are unable to store longevity substances. One must use a specific container!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s previous method of extracting longevity substances had already failed.


    This was because he discovered that even if he could barely extract the longevity substances from flesh and blood, he was still unable to store them.


    Ordinary containers could not store the longevity substances at all.


    He needed many heavenly materials and earthly treasures to test and see what materials could store the longevity substances.


    And the so-called War Merit Vault was the best choice.


    In order to motivate the people of the Sky Kingdom to fight bravely, the Sky royal clan had stored many treasures in the War Merit Vault.


    ¡®And the person in charge of the War Merit Vault is the great general of the north. He also has the bloodline of the Sun-Swallowing Roc.¡¯


    Zhou Feng soon arrived at the center of North City.


    As the troop that came to support, he had to report.


    And if he guessed correctly, he would be in charge of an area.


    But just as he arrived at the gate of the main camp, he was stopped by someone.


    ¡°Stop! Who are you? What are you doing here?¡±


    The guard stopped Zhou Feng.


    ¡°I¡¯m from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate! This is the token¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was expressionless. He took out a token according to the procedure.


    Unexpectedly, the guard did not wait for Zhou Feng to finish and chased him away impatiently.


    ¡°Princess Ming¡¯s Estate? Then what about Her Highness? The great general of North City is busy now. Let Her Highness come personally!¡±


    ¡®The great general of North City is busy?¡¯


    What kind of excuse was this? No matter how busy General Ding Yan was, he couldn¡¯t possibly not have time at all!


    After all, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate came here as reinforcements.


    ¡°Eh? You¡¯re the genius that Princess Ming¡¯s Estate recruited? I heard that you broke through to the Divine Ability realm in just a few days!¡±


    ¡°It looks like that¡¯s it now!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I thought he was some kind of ruthless person.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As if they had predicted it beforehand, a group of people immediately walked out from the other side when Zhou Feng was blocked.


    These people did not hold back at all. Not only were they not very polite to Zhou Feng, but they also did not show much respect to Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    ¡®It seems that many people don¡¯t want Princess Turin to succeed the throne¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not have much of a reaction in the face of these taunts and difficulties.


    This level alone was not enough to change his mood. Instead, it made him feel that there were a lot of forces targeting Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    And what exactly was Princess Turin doing?


    Why couldn¡¯t she appear personally for such an important matter?


    And these people seemed to know that Princess Turin could not appear here, so they deliberately made things difficult for him.


    ¡°Great general of North City¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng ignored everyone in front of him and raised his voice, intending to force General Ding Yan to come out.


    After all, no matter what, he represented Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    If General Ding Yan was really determined not to see Zhou Feng, then he would inevitably be subjected to some rumors.


    ¡®Aren¡¯t you hiding? Then I won¡¯t let you hide.¡¯


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    ¡°How dare you!¡±


    But just as Zhou Feng revealed his intentions, he was stopped by the people in front of him.


    Dou Zhe¡¯s face was filled with anger, and he immediately made his move.


    ¡°Good lad! You really have guts! Isn¡¯t this attitude offending the great general of North City?¡±


    From the guards¡¯ attitude, it could be seen that General Ding Yan did not want to see Zhou Feng.


    However, Zhou Feng would force him to show his face.


    In the end, even if General Ding Yan saw Zhou Feng, he would definitely make things difficult for Zhou Feng in the future.


    Moreover, the worst thing was that for the sake of face, General Ding Yan would definitely meet Zhou Feng in the end.


    This was because General Ding Yan had the bloodline of the Sun-Swallowing Roc and was a force of the royal clan.


    General Ding Yan was unable to hide from Zhou Feng.


    He could only use the weight of the two princes to deter and stop Zhou Feng.


    Dou Zhe pulled out a sword.


    As soon as this sword was pulled out, an ear-piercing sword hum immediately echoed.


    ¡°A sword cultivator?¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at Dou Zhe casually, but he didn¡¯t even move.


    He just let the Sword Qi slash at his body.


    The incomparably sharp Sword Qi only left a few white marks.


    ¡°Great general of North City! Princess Ming¡¯s Estate is here to report! Please come out and see us!¡±


    This voice was extremely loud, and practically everyone in the main camp heard it.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Dou Zhe¡¯s expression instantly became unsightly.


    There seemed to be something wrong with this person¡¯s strength in front of him!


    This body was too abnormal!


    It wasn¡¯t that this person was only at the Soul Altar before. Even if his aptitude was so heaven-defying that he broke through to the Divine Ability realm in a short few days, his actual combat ability definitely should be lackluster, right?


    ¡°Impudent! You actually dared to disturb the general!¡±


    The guards guarding the gate also came to their senses now.


    This absolutely couldn¡¯t go on like this.


    After all, General Ding Yan wouldn¡¯t miss seeing the people from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate. Previously, Zhou Feng had been stopped, so General Ding Yan definitely didn¡¯t know.


    It was all the fault of these two guards at the entrance.


    They actually dared to act on their own accord and stop the people from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate from coming to report.


    At that time, the unlucky ones would be them!


    Therefore, to avoid punishment, the two guards at the entrance were also forced to make a move.


    They wanted to suppress Zhou Feng first and then slowly explain.


    A bloody smell instantly spread out, and killing intent rose from their bodies.


    Being able to be the guards at the main camp¡¯s entrance, these two people were naturally soldiers who had fought hundreds of battles, and their strength had also reached the Divine Ability realm.

 Chapter 500 - Deadly Multiple Choice Questions

    Immovable Mountain, Growable Skin, and Body of Thorns!


    Zhou Feng became a hedgehog with extremely high defense with all kinds of passive additions!


    The guards at the gate raised their long spears and condensed their Blood Qi to fiercely stab.


    Not only did Zhou Feng not dodge, he even calmly glanced at them.


    ¡°How is this possible?¡±


    The two guards immediately felt pain in their bodies, and then they realized that they had done a stupid thing.


    They shouldn¡¯t have simply listened to those people from the kingdom.


    They had said that there were no ruthless people in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate. The people that Princess Ming had recruited were supposedly all noobs.


    Then, they were even confused by these people¡¯s various promises.


    What did they mean by the people in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate were all noobs?


    Wasn¡¯t this f*cking person in front of them a ruthless person?


    Based on this kind of physical body, they would be completely crushed if they were to fight.


    ¡°General! If you don¡¯t come out, then there¡¯s nothing I can do!¡±


    When Zhou Feng shouted for the second time, his tone was already starting to become impatient.


    There was even a hint of a threat.


    It was as if he was saying that if General Ding Yan did not come out, he would do something irrational in the next step.


    Crazy?


    Was he crazy?


    The guards, who were originally on tenterhooks, were instantly delighted when they heard Zhou Feng¡¯s words.


    That was because Zhou Feng was too bold. He actually dared to speak like that.


    ¡®Who do you think you are?¡¯


    General Ding Yan was the commander-in-chief of the northern battlefield. He could directly represent the Sky Kingdom.


    Furthermore, he had already reached the state of half-enlightenment. He was in a state between enlightenment and not enlightenment.


    He was an existence that could step into the Dao Enlightenment realm at any time.


    He actually dared to threaten General Ding Yan? Was he crazy?


    Zhou Feng naturally had his considerations in doing so.


    Firstly, he did not think someone in the Dragon Transformation realm could kill him.


    Secondly, Zhou Feng discovered that the influence of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate seemed to be very limited here.


    It was not as intimidating as in the Sky Kingdom¡¯s capital.


    And Zhou Feng still had to lead the people of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate to gain a foothold here.


    This seemed a little difficult.


    Therefore, he had first to establish his prestige so that the name of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate would have a deterrent effect.


    General Ding Yan was the perfect candidate to gain prestige.


    General Ding Yan had the bloodline of the Sun-Swallowing Roc, and so did Zhou Feng.


    Just because they had the same bloodline, General Ding Yan would not make things too difficult for him.


    After staying in the Sky Kingdom for so long, Zhou Feng finally understood the importance of bloodlines.


    There was also the connection and unity that bloodlines brought.


    Many a time in the Sky Kingdom, just because they had the same bloodline, they could instantly gain the trust of a stranger.


    Although he did not understand why, it did not stop him from making use of this point.


    ¡°Haha! ! What a lively kid!¡±


    A clear and bright voice slowly sounded.


    General Ding Yan had actually come directly to the gate.


    A middle-aged man with a determined look appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    This person was wearing very thick and heavy armor, and his body was at least two and a half meters tall.


    He gave off intense pressure at a glance, and the surrounding air faintly carried a odor of thick blood.


    There were even countless vengeful spirits howling on this person¡¯s body.


    No one knew just how many people this person had killed to be able to manifest this strange phenomenon.


    Apart from this, there was also a hunchbacked old man behind General Ding Yan, and he was holding a walking stick.


    ¡®9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm. He hasn¡¯t broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm yet!¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to think. If he fought with this person, what was his chance of winning?


    Of course, the AI did not rest either. Instead, it was constantly collecting all sorts of information about this general.


    ¡°I know you. I heard that when you started cultivating, you attracted a strange phenomenon. It was a fire crow formed by devouring countless tongues of sun essence.


    ¡°You seem to be called Zhou Feng, right?¡±


    Although General Ding Yan had tried to avoid Zhou Feng previously, his face now displayed a kind of admiration.


    It was like the admiration of an elder toward an outstanding junior.


    ¡°May I ask if one can fight here? These people directly attacked me just now!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was slightly cold as he faced the enthusiastic General Ding Yan.


    At that moment, he looked completely unruly.


    This was also very much in line with the temperament of most geniuses.


    ¡°Oh? Is there such a thing? This is naturally possible!¡±


    When General Ding Yan saw Zhou Feng like this, not only did he not get angry, but he actually admired him even more.


    This was because this was the arrogance that a genius should have. This was the genius of the Sun-Swallowing Roc clan!


    The guards at the gate instantly broke out in cold sweat when they heard this.


    They had never thought that General Ding Yan would actually have such an attitude.


    If Zhou Feng really wanted to make a move, they really didn¡¯t dare to retaliate, especially in front of General Ding Yan.


    But what surprised them was that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t immediately make a move.


    ¡°May I ask the general which area is our estate in charge of?¡±


    ¡°Your Princess Ming¡¯s Estate is in charge of the northeast corner of the mine. This is the map¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng first asked which area Princess Ming¡¯s Estate was in charge of.


    Then, he asked some other questions.


    Regarding this, General Ding Yan answered all of them one by one.


    After figuring out the specific situation, Zhou Feng turned his head around.


    ¡°Who are your accomplices?¡±


    This sentence was directed at Dou Zhe because the latter had been waiting for their arrival here.


    Obviously, he knew that Zhou Feng would come.


    ¡°What?¡±


    Dou Zhe did not expect Zhou Feng to ask this question.


    ¡°Second prince or third prince? Choose One!¡±


    1


    Zhou Feng gave a choice question.


    When he said this, everyone was shocked.


    One could even faintly hear the sound of someone gasping.


    Zhou Feng was too bold!


    He could even say such a thing directly?


    ¡®This kid¡­¡¯


    General Ding Yan was also shocked.


    Although everyone knew that the forces behind the second and third princes were targeting Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, no one dared to say it directly.


    After all, this was a taboo matter.


    However, no one expected Zhou Feng to say it out loud.


    No one knew where he got his confidence from.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    Dou Zhe was instantly stupefied.


    ¡°Good! The third prince, right?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not give Dou Zhe any chance at all and made a choice for him.


    ¡°No¡ª¡±


    Dou Zhe instantly felt like he was about to suffocate and subconsciously wanted to retort.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction was even faster.


    ¡°The second prince it is! You can go to h*ll!¡±


    The Sun Black Flames instantly appeared.


    Zhou Feng did not give Dou Zhe any chance to continue speaking as his Blood Qi exploded like a mountain flood.


    He punched Dou Zhe¡¯s head until it exploded.


    ¡°No!¡±


    At the moment of his death, Dou Zhe wanted to refute again.


    He had no backer, and this action was completely his own idea.


    1


    It had nothing to do with the second and the third princes or anyone else.

 Chapter 502 - Could Be Used as an Excuse!

    Now, Zhou Feng had come to a moment where he needed to make a decision.


    What should he do?


    Abandon the skin of the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline?


    Not yet! He needed to use this skin to obtain more things.


    Not break through to the Dragon Transformation realm for now?


    That was impossible!


    Zhou Feng needed to break through to the Dragon Transformation realm and improve his strength. Only by becoming stronger could he have more say.


    ¡®Bloodline power! Longevity bloodline! Longevity substances!¡¯


    He fell into deep thought, but the bloodline conflict in his body didn¡¯t stop.


    All kinds of strange phenomena kept appearing, and the others from the estate also reacted.


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong! Is there a problem with the caretaker?¡±


    ¡°What should we do?¡±


    ¡°The aura of the caretaker seems to be a bit chaotic!¡±


    The aura that Zhou Feng displayed gave people a powerful and chaotic feeling.


    This was clearly a problem with cultivation.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng was like a god-like needle in the mining pit that could calm the sea.


    The people of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate could stand on their feet again because of Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    If Zhou Feng had a problem, then the people of the Mammoth Kingdom would not let them go.


    ¡°An opportunity!¡±


    ¡°That genius seems to have a problem!¡±


    ¡°Then make a move ahead of time?¡±


    ¡°Make a move directly!¡±


    Unfortunately, the Mammoth Kingdom was already planning how to eliminate the people from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Now, they just happened to meet.


    Dou Wu was very excited at this moment.


    ¡°Haha! A genius from the Sky Kingdom! I heard that there¡¯s not even a Dragon Transformation realm!¡±


    If they could kill a genius of the Sky Kingdom, it would be a great merit.


    Furthermore, it was said that this person came from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate. If they killed him, they might be able to lure the princess of the Sky Kingdom over.


    If they could kill a princess of the Sky Kingdom, that would be a truly great merit.


    At that moment, the various troops of the Mammoth Kingdom began to charge forward frantically.


    They wanted to occupy the mine once again.


    This was because the war between cultivators was different from that between mortals.


    For many cultivators, the great power belonged to themselves, and every cultivator had great destructive power.


    Therefore, it was basically a minority that gathered together like an army of mortals.


    Most of the time, they would form small groups of cultivators and carry out various attacks.


    They would directly occupy a place and then set up a formation.


    The reason the Sky Kingdom was able to occupy the mine in the northeast corner was that they had seized the initiative previously.


    They had set up all sorts of formations and then divided them into countless data points to stand guard and help each other.


    Now, the Mammoth Kingdom planned to raid Zhou Feng¡¯s stronghold.


    After all, Zhou Feng and the others from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate were newcomers and relatively weak. The success rate of the raid was very high.


    Of course, under normal circumstances, finding the exact location of Zhou Feng¡¯s stronghold was a hard thing to do.


    But this time, the Mammoth Kingdom had extremely accurate intelligence.


    Because the source of this Intel was still the Sky Kingdom.


    ¡°The struggle for the throne is so cruel. Poor people are going to become cannon fodder!¡±


    Dou Wu sighed with emotion, yet he was excited.


    When the group of cultivators from the Mammoth Kingdom launched a surprise attack, the Sky Kingdom¡¯s side immediately reacted.


    They also began to organize a defensive counterattack.


    Then, they sped up and transported all the blood essence ores that had been collected back to the main camp.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng had just suppressed the bloodline riot in his body as the people of the estate all gathered together.


    ¡°You all just hide in the mine!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t let them participate in the battle. Instead, he let them all hide.


    Zhou Feng had already come to a decision.


    He didn¡¯t want the skin of the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline. He didn¡¯t want a mere Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    In any case, he had already obtained all kinds of cultivation techniques during this period.


    He had even obtained the visualization technique inheritance. Cultivation resources could only be acquired with strength.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng gave up the original option of nurturing the people in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Instead, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to reap a large number of war merits and exchange them before running away.


    ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°Hide?¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Chaner and the rest could not understand Zhou Feng¡¯s decision at all.


    By doing so, wouldn¡¯t they be no different than cowards?


    They did not come here to be cowards!


    ¡°You guys are too weak! Oh right! While hiding in the mine, don¡¯t stop and continue to mine the blood essence!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Chaner and the rest expressionlessly.


    Although there was no expression on his face, his words were laced with disdain.


    He took out a few spirit beans during this process and casually waved his right hand.


    A few earth soldiers appeared.


    ¡°What is this? A puppet?¡±


    ¡°What a heavy feeling?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The dao soldiers immediately attracted everyone¡¯s attention.


    This was because the dao soldiers in front of them all had Divine Ability cultivation.


    They did not look weak at all. In fact, they could even beat many of them.


    Since when was the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline good at refining puppets?


    Puppets were relatively rare in the entire Sky Kingdom.


    This was because everyone focused on cultivating their bloodlines.


    For things like the art of puppets, perhaps only the Central Plains had people cultivating it.


    Zhou Feng did not explain anything. He only asked the earth soldiers to guard the place.


    At that moment, he could already sense the Mammoth cultivators.


    ¡°They¡¯re coming straight for me?¡±


    He frowned and realized that many people were coming straight for him.


    But in the next second, Zhou Feng¡¯s tightly knitted brows slowly relaxed.


    As long as there were no Dao Enlightenment experts, he was not afraid, no matter how many people there were.


    Zhou Feng felt the green lotus on the Soul Altar, and a sense of stability rose in an instant.


    Because during this period, he had finally completely cleansed the sword spirit in the Chaotian Sword.


    Its intelligence had been obliterated.


    The new treasure spirit had already merged into the green lotus.


    To put it simply, Zhou Feng already had a connate numinous treasure!


    A connate numinous treasure that could grow!


    Moreover, this connate numinous treasure was a defensive one.


    With his terrifying physical body and the green lotus as a defensive treasure, if a Dao Enlightenment expert didn¡¯t make a move, Zhou Feng really couldn¡¯t think of anyone who could kill him.


    ¡°Hehe~ You¡¯re Zhou Feng?¡±


    Dou Wu led three Divine Ability cultivators and broke through the nearby formation.


    Moreover, he recognized Zhou Feng at first glance.


    ¡°There¡¯s a mole?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first reaction was that there was a mole.


    On the Sky Kingdom¡¯s side, someone had exposed his situation to the people of the Mammoth Kingdom.


    This seemed to be unexpected yet within reason.


    Using the enemy to deal with the competitor or cutting off the competitor¡¯s wings seemed to be a very common operation.


    It was a bit old-fashioned! But this routine worked!


    A Dragon Transformation cultivator was leading these three Divine Ability cultivators and a small team of weaker cultivators.


    It would be a piece of cake if they were to hunt down a normal Divine Ability cultivator.


    But there were always accidents in this world.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng felt that choosing to escape at this time seemed to be a good choice.


    He could take advantage of this meeting and ruthlessly borrow the topic play!


    1

 Chapter 503 - Killing Them All

    When Zhou Feng arrived here, he realized something wasn¡¯t right.


    The formation seemed to have been tampered with. It could be used, but it was very sluggish.


    Then, there seemed to be a small number of people in the nearby strongholds.


    Now, combined with the current situation, if Zhou Feng still didn¡¯t think that someone was plotting against him behind his back, he would really be a fool.


    But that didn¡¯t matter. After all, he was already prepared to run away.


    It would be good to take advantage of this last wave and leave.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    Dou Wu threw out a formation map, instantly enveloping the surroundings.


    Then, he skillfully surrounded Zhou Feng with a few helpers.


    The cultivators of the Mammoth Kingdom were famous for their tyrannical physical bodies.


    That was why Dou Wu didn¡¯t use any dao artifacts¡ªhis body was stronger than a dao artifact.


    Cultivating one¡¯s body into a dao artifact was a divine ability of the Mammoth Kingdom.


    This divine ability was called Myriad Treasures Body Refinement.


    When cultivated to the depths, one¡¯s body would be comparable to a dao artifact and could even reach the level of tearing a dao artifact apart with one¡¯s hands.


    The intense sound of air being torn apart echoed as Dou Wu¡¯s body moved forward.


    Zhou Feng stood still on the spot.


    The passive Immovable Mountain was triggered!


    After a few consecutive punches, Zhou Feng managed to withstand Dou Wu¡¯s crazy attacks.


    Dou Wu felt like he was hammering on a huge mountain with each punch.


    The muffled sound and the rebounding force caused Dou Wu to feel that something was not right.


    ¡®Black Sun Flame!¡¯


    Zhou Feng chanted in his heart, and a pitch-black, moving black flame slowly rose.


    A crackling sound immediately came from Dou Wu¡¯s body.


    However, Dou Wu¡¯s body was completely fine. His skin even had a luster that was similar to that of jewelry.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Dou Wu may be fine, but his subordinates were not so lucky.


    The earth soldiers that had been hiding in the surroundings all this while suddenly emerged from the ground and ambushed Dou Wu¡¯s subordinates.


    Dou Wu¡¯s subordinates were basically all at the Divine Ability realm. When faced with a sneak attack from a Divine Ability earth soldier, they did not have the strength to retaliate, much less the AI controlling the earth soldiers.


    According to the AI¡¯s style of planning, no matter what trump card one used, they would not be able to escape.


    ¡°A trap!¡±


    The first reaction in Dou Wu¡¯s mind was that he had fallen into a trap.


    This was a trap set by the Sky Kingdom. There was something wrong with the strength of the person in front of him.


    Furthermore, there was an ambush nearby? Were those puppets? Could they be the treasures of the Sky Kingdom?


    They did not have any aura. If they were used for a sneak attack, it would be very difficult to discover them.


    Due to the uniqueness of dao soldiers, as long as one did not make a move, very few people would be able to discover their existence.


    It had to be said that the Bean Soldiers Ability was indeed a top-notch divine ability.


    As long as one was skilled in using it, the advantage they had in battle would be too great.


    ¡®That¡¯s not right! It¡¯s impossible for the Sky Kingdom to set up an inescapable net just for me! It¡¯s not worth it!¡¯


    Dou Wu initially thought that this was a trap set up by the Sky Kingdom.


    However, after thinking about it, he realized that it was not right. The Sky Kingdom would not spend so much effort just to plot against him.


    Although Dou Wu¡¯s status in the Mammoth Kingdom wasn¡¯t low, it wasn¡¯t worth the Sky Kingdom¡¯s calculations.


    ¡®It¡¯s better to end the battle quickly¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to waste too much time here.


    He had to make the best use of his time and mine all the Blood Essence Veins under his feet.


    Therefore, he once again spread his right hand, and more earth soldiers appeared.


    Bean Soldiers was such a useful divine ability that he naturally had no reason to give up on it.


    Therefore, he continued to purchase spirit beans and refine dao soldiers in his free time.


    He relied on the special function of the passive Immovable Mountain to draw in the earth¡¯s essence.


    Zhou Feng had refined countless earth soldiers.


    One had to know that these earth soldiers were all at the Divine Ability Realm.


    Just their combat strength alone was very impressive.


    Not to mention that he completely treated these earth soldiers as grenades.


    Under Dou Wu¡¯s dumbfounded expression, countless earth soldiers instantly self-destructed.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng himself was still within the self-destruction range.


    For a moment, the earth and the mountains shook.


    Even Chaner and the others who were hiding under the mine could feel the terrifying tremors.


    ¡°Is he crazy? What is he trying to do?¡±


    After being blasted into a mess, Dou Wu could not understand what Zhou Feng was doing at all.


    Even with his treasured Mammoth body, he was almost unable to withstand such crazy self-destruction.


    ¡®The modification is not bad. If only I knew that this kind of power could trigger the earth¡¯s essence, the self-destruction power of a dao weapon refined that way would be even more terrifying.¡¯


    At that moment, a green bone lotus rose above Zhou Feng¡¯s head, and a faint green light completely enveloped him.


    Although this faint light appeared to be only a thin layer, all the explosions had been blocked.


    Zhou Feng was not injured at all; even his clothes were not stained with dust.


    This was the Jade Lake Holy Land¡¯s green lotus! Zhou Feng¡¯s only defensive treasure.


    Although it was still in the flower bud state, it possessed the power of a connate numinous treasure.


    Its defensive ability alone was enough to completely destroy the Purple Jade Bell that Zhou Feng possessed.


    ¡°Connate numinous treasure!? Y-You¡¯re not from the Sky Kingdom? Impossible! You have the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline!¡±


    Dou Wu saw the spotless Zhou Feng and then the green lotus above his head. His face instantly revealed a trace of shock.


    His first reaction was that Zhou Feng was not from the Sky Kingdom.


    That was because the Sky Kingdom had never had such a connate numinous treasure!


    Just like the Mammoth Kingdom, the Sky Kingdom was focused on developing the power of their bloodline.


    Even if they had a connate numinous treasure, it would be one refined from the remains of a Sun-Swallowing Roc. There was absolutely no such green lotus connate numinous treasure.


    Therefore, Dou Wu believed that Zhou Feng was definitely not a member of the Sky Kingdom.


    However, the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body could not be faked.


    ¡°You are from the Central Plains!?¡±


    In the next second, Dou Wu seemed to have thought of something, and a horrified expression appeared on his face.


    He believed that Zhou Feng was from the Central Plains.


    Unfortunately, Dou Wu did not have the chance to continue questioning him.


    Another few earth soldiers self-destructed!


    At the same time that the earth soldiers self-destructed, Zhou Feng immediately circulated his Blood Qi and punched out with all his strength.


    The dark red Blood Qi formed a light pillar that instantly pierced through Dou Wu¡¯s chest.


    In the next second, another batch of earth soldiers self-destructed!


    Dou Wu, a Dragon Transformation Mammoth cultivator, actually died here.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t waste much energy.


    The main reason was that his fighting style was kind of shameless.


    Dou Wu didn¡¯t have any chance to resist at all.


    Who could withstand the self-destruction of a few Divine Ability earth soldiers?


    This was simply shameless!


    Moreover, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even need to dodge. He was directly within the self-destruction range, using the green lotus to resist.


    Dou Wu didn¡¯t have the ability to resist, so Zhou Feng took action personally.


    The most important thing was that Zhou Feng¡¯s current strength wasn¡¯t inferior to some Dragon Transformation cultivators.


    All kinds of passives were stacked on top of each other, and the AI was constantly micro-managing.


    It made him improve every moment.


    ¡®Those that follow the bloodline system seem to have a lot of disadvantages. Or was this opponent a little weak?¡¯


    Zhou Feng dispatched another batch of earth soldiers to intercept and kill anyone that approached.

 Chapter 504 - Great General of North City

    ¡°Grand Demon-Devouring Art!¡±


    Zhou Feng used the Grand Demon-Devouring Art to extract the flesh and blood of all the corpses present.


    Then, he compressed this part of the Blood Qi into a ball and stored it in his body.


    Speaking of which, the AI¡¯s optimization of this demonic cultivation technique was also very thorough.


    Just in terms of extracting the Blood Qi and flesh, this Grand Demon-Devouring Art was extremely effective.


    Zhou Feng controlled his earth soldiers and crazily mined the Blood Essence Veins.


    At the same time, he began to kill the people of the Mammoth Kingdom.


    On the Mammoth Kingdom¡¯s side, the main force of cultivators was the same as the Sky Kingdom.


    Basically, they were all Divine Ability cultivators.


    When faced with Zhou Feng, the Divine Ability cultivators did not have the slightest ability to resist.


    In addition to Zhou Feng¡¯s unfathomable perceptive ability, Zhou Feng¡¯s hands were stained with his opponents¡¯ blood.


    Furthermore, he did not even spare the people from the Sky Kingdom.


    At that moment, the Mammoth and Sky Kingdoms began to feel something was amiss.


    ¡°What happened? Why are the casualties so serious this time?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    General Ding Yan was somewhat uneasy but did not know what had happened.


    He wanted to go to the mine to take a look, but he was afraid the people from the Mammoth Kingdom would move once he left.


    Thus, he could only hold it in for the time being.


    The conflict between the Sky Kingdom and the Mammoth Kingdom soon stopped.


    Both sides suffered heavy losses as most of the Divine Ability cultivators were dead.


    Only some of the Dragon Transformation cultivators barely escaped the disaster.


    As for Zhou Feng, he felt that his soul power was full.


    By relying on the passive Soul Harvesting, his soul power had increased by a lot.


    The progress bar was also full from this slaughterfest.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Since the progress bar was full, Zhou Feng drew a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Human Slayer: Every time you kill a human, your damage will increase by 1 point! When the number of harvested lives reaches 10,000, a phenomenon can be formed! (No limit!)


    1


    When the new passive skill appeared, Zhou Feng was slightly stifled, and then he returned to normal.


    ¡®It¡¯s here! This kind of passive has finally arrived?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had already fantasized about what he would do if he were to extract such a passive kill.


    What would he do!?


    Without a doubt, this passive skill was deadly.


    Every time he killed a person, he would be able to stack a little damage, and there was no upper limit.


    In other words, as long as he killed enough, Zhou Feng would be almost invincible.


    At that time, no one would be able to withstand a single strike from him.


    This was a true increase in damage.


    Although it would take some time to stack it, it was still more than enough!


    Such a temptation was simply too great!


    To be honest, killing people didn¡¯t feel much to him now.


    ¡®Human Slayer¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was silent for a while. Then he put all the blood essence ores he had mined into his storage ring and walked in the direction of the main camp.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to think too much about this kind of thing. His ultimate goal had always been to live forever, not to be invincible in the world.


    What was the point of overthinking since that was the case?


    Everything went on as usual and according to the previous plan.


    Using his innate divine ability as the foundation, he would allow himself to possess the Longevity bloodline.


    Then, step by step, he would slowly comprehend the path of immortality.


    As for his passive Human Slayer, there was no need to stack it deliberately.


    When there was an opportunity, he could slowly stack it.


    Originally, Zhou Feng¡¯s killing intent was not that great, but with this passive Human Slayer, his killing intent could not be suppressed even if he wanted.


    At North City¡­


    A loud voice echoed throughout the city.


    ¡°Great general of North City!¡±


    Although this voice was calm, everyone who heard it felt a sense of anger.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? What¡¯s happening?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but I heard that the situation at the mine is not looking good!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on either. We haven¡¯t been able to contact the mine!¡±


    ¡°What do you mean we haven¡¯t been able to contact them?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people in North City had received news about the Blood Essence Mine.


    This time, for some reason, the main camp had been unable to contact the people from the mine.


    The spies they had sent out were all unable to return.


    They had heard that General Ding Yan could not help but personally investigate this matter.


    ¡°It¡¯s you!?¡±


    General Ding Yan flew out immediately.


    Originally, he wanted to see who was so bold to act atrociously here!


    But when he saw Zhou Feng, he immediately frowned.


    ¡°Great general of North City! Is backstabbing a tradition of the Sky Kingdom?¡± Zhou Feng asked expressionlessly.


    From the aggressive look on his face, it was obvious that he was here to seek an explanation.


    The people in North City also walked to the city gates and began to watch the show.


    ¡®Has he discovered something?¡¯


    General Ding Yan naturally knew what Zhou Feng was talking about.


    This was because the forces behind the second and third princes had always been targeting Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    As the general stationed in North City, he had also faintly sensed that the second prince and the third prince¡¯s factions would make a move on the battlefield.


    However, he chose to remain neutral, which meant he did not care. He would not help either side. In any case, they would fight for what they wanted.


    ¡°What are you talking about? What exactly do you want? Even if you represent Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, it doesn¡¯t mean you can behave atrociously here!¡±


    General Ding Yan still decided to pretend to be deaf and dumb.


    The meaning was obvious: ¡°If you want to fight, it¡¯s your business.¡±


    But it definitely couldn¡¯t be put on the surface.


    Even if the fight was fierce in private, it had nothing to do with him.


    Still, Zhou Feng insisted on putting this matter on the surface. If he didn¡¯t make use of the topic to make a fuss, he wouldn¡¯t put this matter on the surface.


    How could he have an excuse to get more resources?


    ¡°It seems you have already submitted to the second prince, great general! I wonder if the third prince knows!¡±


    1


    Zhou Feng still maintained his expressionless face, but his words made General Ding Yan so angry that he almost jumped up.


    1


    ¡°What nonsense are you spewing!?¡±


    General Ding Yan was already glaring at Zhou Feng.


    ¡®What second prince!? When did I submit to the second prince?


    ¡®And what does this have to do with the third prince!?¡¯


    ¡°So, the great general of North City has secretly joined the second prince?¡±


    ¡°Looks like Princess Ming¡¯s Estate and the third prince have suffered heavy losses this time!¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s words made countless onlookers suck in a breath of cold air.


    They didn¡¯t expect General Ding Yan to hide so deeply.


    On the surface, he appeared to be a neutral party, but he was the second prince¡¯s man in reality.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    General Ding Yan was so angry that he immediately chose to attack.


    He could not let Zhou Feng continue to spout nonsense.


    Violent Blood Qi rose like flames, and a huge figure appeared behind General Ding Yan. The dark red figure was just like an ancient daemon god.


    Just by standing there, it made people feel as if a huge rock was pressing down on their hearts.


    General Ding Yan made a grab to suppress Zhou Feng.


    However, Zhou Feng was not willing to be outdone.


    His Blood Qi erupted as he threw a punch! He forcefully withstood General Ding Yan¡¯s grab!

 Chapter 505 - Madness!

    ¡°It seems that the ¡®great general¡¯ is eager to silence me!¡±


    Zhou Feng seemed to have withstood the general¡¯s attack effortlessly.


    At the same time, his mouth did not seem to have any intention of stopping.


    It had to be said that with his words, General Ding Yan felt that the more Zhou Feng described it, the darker it became.


    Even though many people did not think that General Ding Yan had the motive to seek refuge with the second prince or the third prince, there was no way to get rid of all these suspicions.


    General Ding Yan could not help but curse in his heart. ¡®Damn it! How dare you!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was bold. He actually dared to frame him in front of so many people.


    Could it be that this person thought that he could be so unscrupulous just because Princess Turin was his backer?


    Could it be that Zhou Feng was not afraid of being unable to keep his life in the end?


    What was the benefit of doing this?


    General Ding Yan could not figure out what Zhou Feng wanted to do, but he had already calmed down.


    He definitely could not make another move. If this continued, it would only make things worse.


    One had to know that Princess Turin would be here soon.


    Of course, the main reason for General Ding Yan to stop was that there was something wrong with Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    There was also the green lotus floating above Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    ¡°Is that¡­ a lifebound artifact? I heard that Princess Ming paid a huge price to recruit this person!¡±


    ¡°There was a method to refine a lifebound artifact!¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s actually a lifebound artifact? No wonder this person is so arrogant.¡±


    ¡°Oh no! This way, unless the great general doesn¡¯t care about anything else, he can¡¯t do anything to this person¡­¡±


    Looking at the green lotus above Zhou Feng¡¯s head, everyone present widened their eyes.


    They immediately recognized that this was a lifebound artifact.


    From the aura that was slowly being emitted, they could feel that this green lotus was not on the same level as those spiritual artifacts.


    To be honest, even General Ding Yan could not do anything to Zhou Feng in a short period.


    After all, although Zhou Feng could not defeat him, he could run away.


    However, General Ding Yan could not leave his post without permission.


    This time, General Ding Yan was instantly paralyzed.


    General Ding Yan¡¯s face turned black as he asked Zhou Feng, ¡°What exactly do you want to do?¡±


    The most important thing for him now was to calm down this storm.


    The longer this situation dragged on, the more damage it would do to his reputation.


    ¡°It¡¯s very simple. I want to personally deal with the people who plotted against me behind my back, the wings of the second prince and the third prince!¡±


    Zhou Feng spoke his thoughts out loud.


    The wings of the second prince and the third prince¡­


    When the crowd heard this, the corners of many people¡¯s mouths twitched slightly.


    ¡®You¡¯re too straightforward!


    ¡®Is there a need to say everything? Although everyone knows some things, you cannot say it like that!¡¯


    Zhou Feng stated that the wings of the second prince and the third prince were plotting against him.


    At that moment, the onlookers had awkward expressions on their faces.


    General Ding Yan almost couldn¡¯t take it anymore.


    ¡®Such a direct attack! Is he trying to stir up a conflict? Is Princess Ming¡¯s Estate about to declare war?¡¯


    Then where was the confidence in doing so?


    Or was he crazy?


    ¡°Good! You still have conditions?¡±


    General Ding Yan immediately agreed.


    He had thought it through.


    Even if Zhou Feng was making a big fuss, it had nothing to do with him.


    In any case, all of this was caused by Zhou Feng. He just had to remain neutral throughout the entire process.


    As the general of North City, his strength and connections were obvious.


    No matter what happened in the end, he would not suffer any damage.


    At most, his reputation would take a dive.


    Since that was the case, he did not need to do anything other than just watch the tiger fight.


    ¡°Also, help me exchange these heads for war merits. I want to exchange them for some things!¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. He didn¡¯t expect this confrontation to be smoother than he had imagined.


    Then, he threw many heads out of his storage ring.


    These heads belonged to Mammoth cultivators. Besides the Divine Ability cultivators, there were also a few Dragon Transformation cultivators.


    According to the rules, these human heads could be exchanged for war merits.


    ¡°These are¡­¡±


    ¡°Dragon Transformation realm? There¡¯s more than one? How did he do it!?¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly took out a pile of human heads, which shocked everyone because there were Dragon Transformation cultivators among them.


    In other words, Zhou Feng had crossed a realm and killed Dragon Transformation cultivators?


    This was a reflection of Zhou Feng¡¯s terrifying strength.


    Did this person really just start cultivating not long ago?


    Everyone recalled the information about Zhou Feng now.


    How did his cultivation instantly break through to the Divine Ability realm after entering Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    His actual combat ability was also so terrifying. He even had a lifebound artifact without making a sound.


    All of this made everyone present feel a chill run down their spines.


    No way! Could it be that Princess Ming was going to turn the tables?


    With such a monster and Princess Turin¡¯s natural talent, their future endeavors would be heaven-defying.


    And the second and third princes were too young at the moment.


    They couldn¡¯t develop faster than Princess Ming¡¯s Estate even if they had powerful factions behind them.


    Thinking of this and recalling Zhou Feng¡¯s arrogant attitude just now, many people started to break out in a cold sweat.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    Even General Ding Yan shouted in his heart that he was lucky.


    If he had chosen to fight head-on just now, he might have been the one to suffer in the end.


    This outcome was not bad.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng suppressed the entire scene with his own strength.


    Originally, according to his thoughts, there was a very high risk in doing so.


    After all, it was too arrogant and too rough, but the effect of doing so was very good.


    When everyone faced the problem of the succession of the throne, including General Ding Yan, they were always a little timid.


    On the other hand, Zhou Feng was indifferent. This kind of attitude made everyone mistakenly think that he had full confidence.


    Before they could figure it out, they could only wait and see.


    Thus, things developed into this situation.


    Black Iron, Purple Myrtle Iron, Starsteel Rock, Red Blood Copper, and other rare minerals were all things Zhou Feng exchanged for his war merits.


    He wanted to build a gourd that could store longevity substances, so he naturally could not let go of any kind of refining material.


    Besides that, Zhou Feng also used a lot of blood essence ores to exchange for ordinary cultivation techniques.


    In any case, as long as he felt he could use them, he would exchange them all.


    General Ding Yan did not stop him. After all, these things could be exchanged as long as one had enough war merits.


    Next, it was Zhou Feng¡¯s purge.


    He ruthlessly plucked the wings of the second prince and the third prince.


    During this period, there were even people who continuously reported and wanted to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    And the more ruthless Zhou Feng acted, the more people wanted to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    Zhou Feng did not reject these people.

 Chapter 506 - Creating the Longevity Ability!

    Zhou Feng did not expect this either. Originally, he only wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make a profit before his departure.


    He randomly killed a few people and stacked the passive Human Slayer, but he did not expect this outcome.


    He used this opportunity to gather a huge amount of reputation. Countless people chose to join Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    ¡°It has already reached 57!¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at the skill panel. Currently, the passive Human Slayer had already reached 57 stacks.


    1


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel a strange energy gathering in his hands.


    This strange energy was similar to killing intent? It was also similar to resentment.


    It was like a special energy that had been plundered from those people.


    Although he did not know what was going on, his attack power had definitely increased.


    There were also the wings of the second and third princes, which had contributed many cultivation resources.


    Zhou Feng had only chosen a few of these items, and the rest had been distributed to the others in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate.


    By relying on prestige and rewards, the influence of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate in North City had actually surpassed that of the other forces.


    Of course, this was because they had suppressed General Ding Yan.


    But no matter what, the reputation of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate was still rising.


    The Mammoth Kingdom on the other side was now investigating who was so powerful.


    Not only had they suffered heavy losses, but there weren¡¯t even many who made it back alive.


    The Sky Kingdom and the Mammoth Kingdom had always been evenly matched.


    How did the situation change in an instant?


    This wasn¡¯t right! Wasn¡¯t the Sky Kingdom¡¯s Princess Turin not there yet?


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care about the battle with the Mammoth Kingdom.


    Princess Turin had already arrived in North City, so he handed everything over to her.


    Then, he went deep into the Blood Essence Mine alone and concentrated on his research.


    ¡°Is that all?¡±


    A strange light flashed in Princess Turin¡¯s eyes.


    Just now, Chaner had reported everything she knew to her.


    ¡°Your Highness, this is all that this servant knows. After all, this servant was still in the mine at that time¡­


    ¡°So, this servant doesn¡¯t know the exact details!¡±


    Chaner¡¯s face revealed a trace of embarrassment.


    To be honest, the current momentum of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate in North City was due to Zhou Feng.


    They didn¡¯t have much strength at all.


    ¡°Is that so¡­¡±


    Princess Turin slightly ruffled her long black hair, and a trace of domineering air appeared between her brows.


    ¡°Give the order! Prepare to capture the entire Blood Essence Mine!


    ¡°I will personally speak to General Ding Yan!¡±


    In Princess Turin¡¯s view, this was definitely a great opportunity, a chance for the Sky Kingdom to occupy the entire Blood Essence Mine.


    Because of Zhou Feng, the Mammoth Kingdom had suffered heavy losses.


    Their morale was severely damaged. If they took advantage of this opportunity, there was a high chance that they could take down the Blood Essence Mine.


    With such merits in hand, her father would reward her with something.


    Those people also had nothing to say.


    Princess Turin had been delayed for so long because she wanted something from her father.


    And with that thing, Princess Turin would definitely be able to take down this Blood Essence Mine.


    In the mine¡­


    Zhou Feng had dug a stone chamber and conducted various experiments there.


    ¡°The 562nd extraction of the longevity substance!¡±


    Zhou Feng took a few corpses out of his storage ring.


    Then, he began to extract the longevity substances from these corpses.


    Zhou Feng had discovered that the longevity substances did not only exist in the blood.


    Everyone¡¯s body carried the longevity substances, which could maintain the vitality of a person¡¯s physical body.


    Moreover, as one¡¯s cultivation base increased, the density of the longevity substances in the body would slowly increase.


    This was also why the higher the cultivation base of a cultivator, the higher their lifespan.


    Especially after the Dragon Transformation realm, the physical body underwent a transformation, and the capacity limit of the longevity substances was increased.


    Under such circumstances, it was not a problem for a Dragon Transformation cultivator to live for a few hundred years.


    This conclusion was the product of the AI¡¯s analysis after countless experiments.


    ¡°Success!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mind jolted. He had finally succeeded in extracting the purer longevity substances.


    However, these longevity substances were slowly dissipating.


    1


    In a short while, they were about to disappear.


    ¡°I can finally try to create a bloodline that belongs to me!¡±


    Although these longevity substances were slowly dissipating, Zhou Feng was not at all disappointed.


    He could already try to create a bloodline that belonged to him.


    A bloodline that belonged to him!


    The Longevity bloodline!


    Zhou Feng realized that no matter what material was used, these longevity substances could not be stopped from dissipating.


    Only the pure power of the bloodline could dissolve the longevity substances and spread them through the bloodline.


    In other words, the best carrier for longevity substances was the bloodline!


    Thus, he immediately had an idea.


    Wasn¡¯t his innate divine ability Longevity?


    Zhou Feng would use the method of tracing the origin to collect the fragments of the Longevity divine ability in his bloodline.


    Then, he would activate his innate divine ability and slowly merge the extracted longevity substances into his bloodline.


    In this way, he could create the Longevity bloodline.


    It was impossible to explain in just a few words.


    In any case, if Zhou Feng wanted to create the Longevity bloodline and Longevity Ability, he needed to abandon the current Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline.


    He would even have to abandon the Human Emperor bloodline!


    He would directly restore the original mortal bloodline and then try step by step.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s begin!¡±


    Zhou Feng took out the green lotus and protected his body.


    Then, he began to extract all the bloodlines one by one and restore his mortal body.


    Just as he began to try to pull out the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, he spat out a mouthful of blood.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body began to react violently.


    This was all normal. He would have to undergo a physical reconstruction if there were no accidents.


    Only then would he be able to get rid of all the bloodlines.


    ¡°Fortunately, I used the Grand Demon-Devouring Art to store enough flesh and blood!¡±


    Zhou Feng began to take out a large number of cultivation resources.


    If this attempt was successful, then it was very likely that he would create his own immortal bloodline, Longevity Ability, and a visualization technique that was exclusive to himself!


    Because once the Longevity bloodline was created, Zhou Feng intended to visualize himself in the future.


    1


    In fact, the so-called visualization was a process of continuous psychological hints.


    Visualization was to let his soul believe that he could become like this.


    This was a kind of cultivation of the soul.


    Zhou Feng relied on the analysis of the AI to understand the visualization technique.


    If the Longevity bloodline were born, he would be able to live for thousands of years.


    An undying cultivator who roamed the world!


    It was the future Zhou Feng!


    At that moment, he could visualize the future him.


    ¡®Even if I fail, I still have a chance to be reborn! So I can just directly charge!¡¯


    Zhou Feng took a deep breath and gave himself confidence in his heart.


    After all, if there was still a chance to be reborn, Even if he failed and died, he could still be reborn, so there was no need to be afraid at all.


    Perhaps no one would have thought that a mere Divine Ability cultivator would dream of creating a longevity method.


    One had to know this was a method to reach longevity! It was a method of longevity that only those at the Dao Enlightenment realm were qualified to come into contact with.


    The most terrifying thing was that Zhou Feng really might succeed.

 Chapter 507 - The Longevity Bloodline!

    Chapter 507: The Longevity Bloodline!


    While Zhou Feng was devoting himself to creating the Longevity bloodline, the Sky Kingdom and the Mammoth Kingdom were engaged in a heated battle.


    Because they had the advantage that Zhou Feng had accumulated previously, the Sky Kingdom had the upper hand for a time.


    It was also at this moment that the Sky Kingdom¡¯s people realized.


    Back then, other than the Mammoth Kingdom¡¯s people, Zhou Feng had not even spared the Sky Kingdom¡¯s own people.


    Especially those who had been close to the base of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate were all slaughtered.


    The reason was actually collusion with the enemy. When the people of the Mammoth Kingdom had charged toward the base of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate, these people actually tacitly retreated.


    At this time, everyone finally understood just how tyrannical Zhou Feng was.


    In reality, Zhou Feng only wanted to collect more materials.


    In order to extract the longevity substances, he needed the cultivators¡¯ corpses.


    Moreover, the higher the cultivation level, the better, or the purer the bloodline in one¡¯s body, and the more longevity substances he extracted.


    However, because of this, the power of Princess Ming¡¯s Estate rose again.


    With Princess Turin in charge and with her great influence, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate actually led the Sky Kingdom.


    They occupied more than half of the Blood Essence Mine.


    As time passed, everyone began to have doubts about Zhou Feng¡¯s whereabouts.


    That was because Zhou Feng had not appeared for so long, and no one knew what he was doing.


    Only Princess Turin knew where Zhou Feng was through the bloodline alliance contract¡¯s connection. She could sense that Zhou Feng was deep underground in the mine.


    ¡°He disappeared!?¡±


    Suddenly, Princess Turin frowned.


    She suddenly felt that the bloodline alliance contract¡¯s connection had disappeared.


    This was impossible!


    Once the bloodline alliance contract was signed, it was almost impossible to get rid of it.


    Unless Zhou Feng died, or the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in his body disappeared.


    Otherwise, the bloodline alliance contract couldn¡¯t disappear.


    Princess Turin felt that something was wrong. Princess Ming¡¯s Estate really could not lose Zhou Feng.


    After all, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate had such power now, and Zhou Feng occupied more than half of it.


    If Zhou Feng disappeared, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate would soon disperse.


    Because once Princess Turin was involved, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate would not have a leader.


    As a member of the royal clan, although Princess Turin was very strong, she had too many concerns.


    She could not go on a killing spree like Zhou Feng.


    Princess Turin thought for a moment and prepared to head directly to the depths of the mine.


    ¡­


    On the other side, Zhou Feng had completely removed all of his bloodlines.


    He had recovered his most primitive bloodline.


    For this, he paid a heavy price.


    In order to keep only the bloodline with the fragment of the innate divine ability, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire person had aged dozens of times.


    His skin had become loose, and his aura had become very weak.


    He looked like he was just skin and bones.


    Even his bone marrow had been removed to create the Longevity bloodline.


    The only reason he was alive now was the Spiritual Qi hanging on his breath, and the green lotus enveloped him.


    ¡°It¡¯s not enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng still felt that it was not enough.


    By relying on this state, it was impossible to create the Longevity bloodline.


    He had to restore his physical body to its factory settings, which was the closest to the state of an infant.


    This was the most malleable.


    He did not want the bones any more!


    2


    Zhou Feng planned to preserve the most basic organs and discard the rest of his physical body.


    This step was directly completed with the power of the soul.


    When his body became the most primitive state, he would begin extracting the longevity substances and let the newly born body merge with the longevity substances.


    Although this method seemed a little crude, Zhou Feng had no other way.


    The current plan was already the best plan that he could think of at his realm.


    As someone who was only at the Divine Ability realm, he was already strong enough to be able to involve the reconstruction of the body and create the bloodline.


    As for the deeper laws of the great Dao, he currently had no way of comprehending them.


    What was worth mentioning was that even though his body had become like this, all sorts of passive skills were still taking effect. The most important one was the passive Tenacious Heart, which allowed his physical body to recover continuously.


    If not for the passive Tenacious Heart, he would not have been able to hold on for so long.


    ¡°It¡¯s starting!¡±


    Zhou Feng finally felt that the time was right.


    All the flesh and bones in his body had already disappeared.


    Other than a head and some internal organs, there was nothing else.


    1


    Fortunately, he was inside the green lotus, which was now like a Petri dish.


    He used the extremely high concentration of Spiritual Qi to hang on to his life.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng relied on the power of his soul to throw the flesh and blood containing the longevity substances into the green lotus.


    This mass of flesh and blood was the purest flesh and blood that he had cultivated, and then it was mixed with the longevity substances.


    This thing was the key to his flesh and blood reconstruction.


    It was also the plan that the AI had simulated countless times.


    As long as the flesh and blood could be reconstructed, the remaining things could be transformed one by one.


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s guess, as long as the flesh and blood could be remolded, the organs could begin transforming.


    After the five viscera and six bowels was the most important part¡ªthe brain.


    If all these things could be changed, the creation of the Longevity bloodline should be considered a success.


    But this goal was still very far away for him.


    At least, it was impossible to complete it at his current realm. He estimated that, at the very least, he had to reach the Dao Enlightenment realm, and only after his soul was truly separated from his body.


    Would he be able to create the Longevity bloodline truly?


    Thump! Thump! Thump


    The sound of his heart beating began to grow louder and louder.


    The speed at which his flesh and blood were regenerating was faster than he had imagined.


    It was mainly because of Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills and the AI¡¯s micromanaging control.


    After who knew how many days had passed, Zhou Feng had already changed into a new skin bag and was sitting upright on the green lotus.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance changed once again.


    If it were when he had the Human Emperor bloodline, his body would carry an aura of nobility and inexplicably possess an imposing aura.


    When he had the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, his body would give off an overbearing temperament.


    But now, it had become extremely harmonious.


    That¡¯s right! It was harmonious! His nose was clearly still the same nose, and his mouth was still the same mouth, yet he gave off a very comfortable feeling.


    With every movement, he became one with the surrounding environment.


    His skin was smooth and white, and his hair was dark and shiny.


    His body was exuding an inexplicable pleasant smell.


    ¡°I¡¯m so hungry! I¡¯m so hungry!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt intense hunger, and his stomach seemed to be burning crazily.


    The Spiritual Qi that was wandering around started to pour into his body.


    That¡¯s right! It directly poured into his body!


    His body seemed to have become a hole in this world, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi continuously leaked into this hole.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to mobilize the soul power to control the Spiritual Qi. The Spiritual Qi moved by itself.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was surprised to find that his sense of hunger began to ease.


    What had happened to his physical body?


    Subconsciously, he took a deep breath, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi instantly exploded.

 Chapter 508 - Leaving Gracefully

    The Spiritual Qi storm was only caused by Zhou Feng taking a deep breath, and his physical body absorbed it.


    His physical body also began to undergo some kind of mutation.


    ¡°Is this considered a success?¡±


    Zhou Feng used the origin tracing method and began to examine the bloodline in his body.


    The result of the examination was very ordinary!


    There wasn¡¯t the slightest abnormality, but he discovered that the vitality contained in his physical body seemed to be countless times more concentrated than before.


    Vitality was a very general term, but it could be felt.


    Could this be considered a success?


    Zhou Feng felt that he had succeeded! He had succeeded in creating the Longevity bloodline, but it was only barely a success. The longevity substances contained in his bloodline were not much, so he needed to increase the longevity substance content in the bloodline bit by bit.


    Then, he needed to transform his internal organs.


    To put it simply, he had successfully created the Longevity bloodline, but this Longevity bloodline had the possibility of degenerating at any time or place.


    He needed a large number of longevity substances to be supplied continuously.


    Only when the supply of the longevity substances stabilized could it be considered a real success.


    ¡°Then, I can break through to the Dragon Transformation realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng began to try to transform his physical body.


    The Longevity bloodline in his body began to be stimulated, and his physical body also began to transform slowly.


    However, just as his physical body was beginning to transform, Zhou Feng discovered a very serious problem¡ªthe lack of Spiritual Qi!


    In order to transform his physical body, he needed to consume a large amount of Spiritual Qi.


    In other words, he would need countless cultivation resources. These cultivation resources could be pills, medicinal herbs, or even Spirit Stones.


    There was also the cultivation technique. Zhou Feng also needed to consider this.


    Given his predicament, he had no choice but to start creating his own cultivation technique.


    Due to the Longevity bloodline, the other cultivation techniques were no longer suitable for him.


    He had to create his own cultivation techniques according to the Longevity bloodline.


    Furthermore, he had to cultivate from scratch.


    ¡°Someone is here?¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was feeling vexed, he suddenly felt that someone was there.


    Was this Princess Turin?


    It was time to leave!


    Zhou Feng felt that it was time to leave the Sky Kingdom. Without the skin of the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline, it was useless to continue staying there.


    Instead, it would become extremely dangerous.


    From a certain point of view, Zhou Feng could be considered to have deceived Princess Turin and the Sky Kingdom.


    He had obtained a lot of benefits from Princess Turin, including various cultivation and visualization techniques.


    However, Princess Turin had relied on him to gain a firm foothold in North City.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng felt that he had not wasted his time and effort.


    However, before he left, he was able to meet Princess Turin.


    The most important thing was that Princess Turin had already gone outside.


    She had even noticed Zhou Feng.


    ¡°You?¡±


    Princess Turin¡¯s eyes revealed a trace of shock as she looked at Zhou Feng.


    This was because the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body had actually disappeared.


    In Princess Turin¡¯s eyes, the current Zhou Feng had become very ethereal, and his body exuded a very pleasant smell.


    Inexplicably, a trace of saliva actually leaked out from her mouth.


    After eating his flesh, she would be able to live for a few more days!


    1


    This strange thought actually popped out in Princess Turin¡¯s mind.


    Princess Turin suppressed that inexplicable thought and asked, ¡°Your bloodline¡­¡±


    ¡°I discovered that any other bloodline than mine is a burden,¡± Zhou Feng answered very naturally.


    Secretly, he began to mobilize the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    His current body seemed to be more suitable for carrying the Great Void Primordial Qi. It was much easier and more convenient to use the Great Void Primordial Qi at this time.


    ¡°You¡¯re leaving!?¡±


    Princess Turin frowned and guessed Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I¡¯m going to pursue the path of immortality!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s reply was still very straightforward.


    It seemed like he had already planned it this way.


    Looking at his natural expression, Princess Turin felt an inexplicable anger rise in her heart.


    ¡®You want to leave just like that? Then what about what happened before?¡¯


    In order to keep Zhou Feng, she had paid a huge price.


    Now he wanted to leave just like that?


    In Princess Turin¡¯s heart, this was an absolutely impossible thing.


    Moreover, there was a voice in her heart urging her to stop Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Zhou Feng must stay!¡¯


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Zhou Feng only left a word and used the Staseizer Steps.


    ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it! !¡±


    The Sun Black Flames rose around Princess Turin; her gaze instantly changed, betraying traces of desire.


    This gaze was like a demon seeing Tang Sanzang1. That hidden madness gave Zhou Feng a bad feeling.


    ¡®My physical body¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately realized that this was the desire of all living beings for the longevity substances.


    When a living being encountered longevity substances, that instinct would drive them.


    They would think of ways to get their hands on the longevity substances.


    Thinking back, when Zhou Feng had discovered longevity substances, his state of mind immediately changed.


    Only now did he recover from that crazy state of mind.


    Princess Turin¡¯s expression now was exactly the same as his back then.


    In other words, he had really turned into Tang Sanzang?


    1


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was constantly leaking longevity substances. Although the number of longevity substances leaking out was very little, it was inexplicably attractive.


    At that moment, his heart slowly sank.


    While Zhou Feng was thinking about what he should do, he ordered all the underground earth soldiers lurking around to self-destruct.


    Then, he tried his best to restrain his aura.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Princess Turin was shocked.


    She hurriedly started to avoid the earth soldiers¡¯ self-destruction.


    Since Zhou Feng had chosen to enter seclusion here, he was naturally prepared.


    In order to live a better life, he would always plan for his escape whenever he arrived at a place.


    Not to mention, the AI was constantly using Hexadirectional Calculation to calculate the good and bad.


    After a few operations, Zhou Feng rushed out of the mine and flew in a certain direction.


    Meanwhile, Princess Turin was still trapped under the mine.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!?¡±


    ¡°What happened?¡±


    ¡°The mine! The mine exploded!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Such a violent explosion quickly gathered the people of the Sky Kingdom.


    However, in the next second, a Sun-Swallowing Roc with black flames burning all over its body rushed out from the ground.


    A furious roar pierced through the eardrums of countless people.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng had long disappeared without a trace.


    Then, the Sun-Swallowing Roc slowly transformed into human form.


    Princess Turin appeared in front of everyone.


    At that moment, everyone realized that it was Princess Ming.


    ¡°What exactly happened? Why does the princess look so angry?¡±


    ¡°Did something happen below the mine?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know, but it seems to be a big deal.¡±


    While everyone was discussing, Princess Turin was extremely frustrated because she suddenly realized that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline at all.


    Everything before was just a disguise.


    ¡®That person¡­ I¡¯m afraid he doesn¡¯t have the Sun-Swallowing Roc bloodline at all. He¡¯s a dao child from the Central Plains!¡¯


    1

 Chapter 509 - The Bloody Road to Immortality!

    After Zhou Feng left the Blood Essence Mine, he continued to move eastward at breakneck speed.


    According to the information he had obtained from the Sky Kingdom, the Sky Kingdom was only a small country at the border of the Eastern Land.


    Only the king was in the Dao Enlightenment realm, and in the far east, there were quite a number of Dao Enlightenment experts.


    There were even great cultivators above the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    However, this also meant that the competition was even more intense.


    Countless Spiritual Veins gathered in the far east, and the ancient cultivators also stopped there.


    This also led to the cultivators who were motivated to advance to this place.


    After all, the Eastern Land was the strongest in all regions except the Central Plains.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s goal was the far east. He wanted to replenish the Longevity bloodline in his body.


    He needed more resources and more cultivation knowledge.


    A small country was no longer enough to satisfy him.


    ¡®It¡¯s still a little unstable!¡¯


    As Zhou Feng was hurrying on his way, he felt the longevity substances in his body continuously drain away.


    Even if he used all his strength to lock the longevity substances in his body, it was all in vain.


    This resulted in him having to constantly extract the longevity substances and fuse them into his bloodline.


    However, this also had its benefits. As he continued to fuse the longevity substances, his bloodline constantly changed.


    There was also something that made Zhou Feng feel troubled.


    It was as if he had really become Tang Sanzang¡¯s flesh. The longevity substances emitted from his body made every cultivator feel very comfortable.


    It was as if a halo of attention had been placed on him.


    People would come looking for trouble along the way no matter how low-key Zhou Feng was.


    And sometimes, there was no reason at all.


    Even some demonic beasts had their eyes on him.


    Suddenly, a fierce tiger with soaring Demonic Qi rushed out from the forest.


    This huge tiger was at least three meters tall. Just by opening its mouth, it could swallow half of Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    In the next second, a trace of blood appeared on the head of this huge tiger.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a thread and directly killed the huge tiger in front of him.


    Zhou Feng was very skilled in using the Grand Demon-Devouring Art to extract the entirety of this huge tiger¡¯s flesh and blood.


    The tiger¡¯s flesh and blood gathered in his hand in an instant.


    There was only a shriveled carcass left on the spot and a layer of skin that had lost its luster.


    After that, Zhou Feng began purifying and extracting longevity substances from the blood and flesh.


    Finally, they merged into his bloodline.


    Although the longevity substances that could be extracted were insignificant, it was still better than nothing.


    Along the way, he had already killed countless humans and demonic beasts. There were a few corpses on every other section of the road.


    He was already used to it.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any solutions.


    Although he knew that this would bring about big trouble sooner or later, he didn¡¯t want to stop.


    The path of immortality was a bloody one.


    Without a sufficient state of mind and boldness, it was absolutely impossible to live forever.


    ¡®Moreover, isn¡¯t this a great opportunity? Human Slayer is on the defensive!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at his hands. That inexplicable energy was increasing while his aura was gradually becoming stronger.


    Don¡¯t forget, Zhou Feng still had the passive Invincible Aura and Human Slayer.


    These two passive skills were the few that he could crazily stack.


    But before this, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the ability to stack them. Firstly, it was impossible for him to find people to kill casually.


    Secondly, he had been running around or rapidly improving his strength.


    However, things were different now. The green lotus was in hand, and he had the Starseizer Steps.


    His life-saving ability alone was superb, and these people came to him on their own.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng wanted to take this opportunity to superimpose these passives.


    Slowly, he arrived in a new country.


    Just like the Sky Kingdom, this was also a country where a daemonic bloodline was supreme.


    ¡°Detour?¡±


    The idea of detouring only appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind for a second before he discarded it.


    For some reason, a voice in his heart told him to walk straight to the far east.


    1


    Thus, Zhou Feng continued to walk forward step by step.


    An invincible aura began to develop.


    There was clearly not a single trace of blood on his body, and his clothes were also very clean. His entire person seemed to be a natural and harmonious entity.


    However, there was a sinister and oppressive aura around him, as if the aura of hell had penetrated this place.


    ¡°Quickly, look! This person¡­¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s Wrong?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strange behavior instantly attracted the attention of many people.


    1


    However, with just a glance, many people felt a chill.


    Then, traces of desire rose from the bottom of their hearts. Zhou Feng seemed to have a special attraction.


    ¡°This state¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng felt his heartbeat quicken slightly.


    He seemed to have entered a certain state.


    Soon after, a town blocked his path.


    He did not choose to take a detour. Instead, he planned to cross it forcefully.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a spear, and he hurled it lightly.


    The wall of the town was instantly shattered.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!?¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s a madman! Quickly! Stop him!¡±


    ¡°Take this person down!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy actions immediately stupefied the people in the town.


    What was going on? Why did this person attack for no reason?


    When Liu Luo saw this, he immediately felt that this was a good opportunity to show off.


    As a vagabond cultivator, the bloodline awakened in his body was only the most ordinary Lunar Wolf bloodline.


    Just by relying on this ordinary bloodline, he wanted to advance further on the path of cultivation.


    It was almost impossible!


    But if he used sufficient resources, or if he could obtain a Howling Moon Spirit Fruit, he would have the possibility of advancing further.


    As long as he had the Howling Moon Spirit Fruit, his Lunar Wolf bloodline could possibly evolve into the Howling Moon Sky Wolf bloodline.


    That¡¯s right! The daemonic bloodlines weren¡¯t fixed¡ªthey could evolve as well.


    However, the conditions for bloodline evolution were usually very harsh.


    Only certain things could cause the bloodline to mutate.


    Liu Luo just happened to know that the Town Lord had recently received a Howling Moon Spirit Fruit.


    This kind of Howling Moon Spirit Fruit only grew in the territory where the Howling Moon Wolf Pack lived.


    Every day, it would absorb the power of the moonlight in the sky. When it matured, it would be picked by the Howling Moon Wolf King.


    Therefore, this fruit was very precious. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to get it.


    ¡°This is the only chance in my life!¡±


    Liu Luo¡¯s heart was beating fast.


    It was almost impossible to get the Howling Moon Spirit Fruit from the Town Lord, but there was a chance now, a chance to make a big contribution.


    As long as he subdued this madman in front of him, it was possible to make a great contribution.


    And it had to be him alone. The others hadn¡¯t reacted yet.


    As a group of cultivators who went against the heavens, there would always be people who would try to seize every opportunity.


    Opportunity! As long as an opportunity appeared, it had to be seized.


    Now, Liu Luo thought that his opportunity had appeared.


    Thus, he moved toward Zhou Feng!


    1

 Chapter 510 - Slaughter!

    Note: There is a problem with the RAWs, and the chapter is not whole. We¡¯re trying to fix it as soon as possible. Sorry, for the inconvenience.


    3


    ***


    ¡°Die!¡± roared Liu Luo.


    The fur on his body thickened, and a barbaric and crazy aura rose.


    ¡°Awooo!¡±


    Like a normal Lunar Wolf, Liu Luo began to howl at the sky.


    The bright moon that should have been hidden in this broad daylight was actually summoned.


    The Lunar Wolf bloodline cultivated the Dao of the Moon.


    The legendary Howling Moon Sky Wolf was the cultivation representative of the Dao of the Moon.


    As long as it faced the sky and howled, a full moon could descend from the nine heavens.


    All the enemies would be instantly killed.


    It could be said that it was not inferior to the Dao of the Sun.


    However, Liu Luo had only just broken through to the Divine Ability realm.


    He did not have the ability to summon the full moon from the nine heavens. He could only summon the projection of one and a half moon.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng seemed to look at Liu Luo subconsciously.


    His entire person showed no signs of resistance.


    ¡°Even if I can¡¯t obtain the Howling Moon Spirit Fruit, it¡¯s not bad to gain cultivation resources!¡±


    Seeing this, Liu Luo believed that he had succeeded.


    The person in front of him was someone who had suddenly become hysterical.


    He did not expect to encounter such a good thing.


    To meet a crazy person who became hysterical, was this considered manna that fell from the sky?


    Liu Luo even planned in his heart his future cultivation path.


    But there was a good saying: ¡°Never open the champagne at half-time.¡±


    In the next second, Liu Luo¡¯s smile froze.


    A long spear had unknowingly pierced through his chest.


    There was no sign of it at all!


    The long void spear had shattered all of his protective spiritual artifacts and cut off all of his life force.


    ¡®I haven¡¯t broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm yet! I can¡¯t accept this!¡¯


    This was the last thought in Liu Luo¡¯s mind.


    As a member of the common people, Liu Luo could be considered a positive cultivator.


    In order to advance further and live longer, he risked his life as a cultivator.


    He wanted to seize all the opportunities.


    But in the end, he still couldn¡¯t avoid death.


    Thin lotus petals slowly rose around Zhou Feng, isolating all the attacks outside.


    ¡°Another person!¡±


    Liu Luo¡¯s flesh and blood were extracted, and his passive Human Slayer was stacked again.


    Now, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was even more vigorous, and the blood in his body began to stir.


    He ignored everyone and did another set of operations.


    He extracted a trace of longevity substance from Liu Luo¡¯s lump of flesh and blood and then fused it into his bloodline.


    Although he had repeated this process countless times, in the eyes of others, he was undoubtedly a first-class devil.


    He actually extracted all of a person¡¯s flesh and blood in front of everyone¡¯s eyes and then devoured it?


    The Demonic Path! A madman who had fallen into the Demonic Path!


    After having this clear understanding, the people present were divided into three factions.


    The first faction was the one that knew how to protect themselves and immediately fled.


    This kind of madman would eventually die somewhere, so they would avoid this kind of madman when they met them.


    The second faction was watching the show. Although they immediately distanced themselves, they didn¡¯t go far.


    The last faction was the resistance faction.


    Because of Zhou Feng¡¯s behavior, he obviously wanted to enter the town.


    They would never allow such a devil to enter the town.


    And so, the resistance began!


    But the result of the resistance was also very tragic.


    Zhou Feng was like a merciless killing machine.


    The additional terrifying lethality of the Human Slayer, coupled with the Great Void Primordial Qi¡¯s obliterating intent, was simply invincible.


    They could not withstand a single move.


    And as Zhou Feng killed more and more people, his strength became even more terrifying.


    He took some time to take a look at the skill panel and discovered that three passives were crazily stacking up.


    These three passives were Soul Harvesting, Invincible Aura, and Human Slayer.


    4


    Soul Harvesting: You might obtain a soul for every cultivator you kill. Each soul could increase a little bit of soul power!


    Invincible Aura: A certain kind of aura starts to form on your body. Every time you defeat an enemy, this aura will accumulate by one layer.


    There is no limit to the layers you can accumulate.


    Human Slayer: Every time you kill a human, your damage will increase by 1 point! When the number of harvested lives reaches 10,000, a phenomenon can be formed! (No limit!)


    These three passives required a crazy level of stacks.


    Moreover, the more the stacks, the better the effect.


    Zhou Feng had never seriously stacked these passive skills before.


    Now it¡¯s done!


    ¡°Huh? Can I draw a new passive skill now?¡±


    What made Zhou Feng even more surprised was that after killing so many people, the progress bar also rose quickly.


    It had not been long since he had gained the passive Human Slayer, yet he could draw a new passive skill.

 Chapter 511 - Ran... Ran Away?

    Xin Sui held a scepter in his hand, and golden light shone in all directions.


    This should be the strongest Dragon Transformation cultivator that Zhou Feng had encountered.


    When he had previously fought with Princess Turin, she did not use her full strength.


    As for the other Dragon Transformation cultivators, they had just broken through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    They did not fully utilize the advantages of the Dragon Transformation realm.


    However, Xin Sui was different. Although this person¡¯s talent was average, he had transformed his physical body five times step by step.


    His powerful physical body was able to allow him to withstand the power of laws.


    Even if Zhou Feng closed his eyes, the piercing golden light would still hurt his eyes.


    ¡°It¡¯s not enough! It¡¯s not enough!¡±


    The green lotus appeared above Zhou Feng¡¯s head and protected his entire body.


    With just this kind of strength, he couldn¡¯t back down.


    Furthermore, it was as if he had entered a state of enlightenment.


    Not only was the Blood Qi in his body churning, but even his mind had become exceptionally clear.


    Some people might not encounter such a state once in their lives.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng had to take advantage of this state to comprehend his own cultivation technique.


    ¡°Great Void Dao!¡±


    Zhou Feng sensed the Great Void Primordial Qi in the battle.


    The Great Void Primordial Art was actually a passive art that was augmented by the simulation of cultivation.


    Zhou Feng had long cultivated it to the limit. If he tried to cultivate it past that limit, it would cause huge damage to his physical body, so he did not continue.


    Just like the Starseizer Steps, the complete Starseizer Steps contained not only the insights into the Dao of Space but also the Dao of Stars.


    The comprehension of the laws of a great Dao also required a strong physical body as the foundation.


    Without a strong physical body, once one recklessly came into contact with the power of laws, it would be equivalent to playing with fire.


    But now, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t care so much anymore.


    He wanted to maintain this special state, and no one could stop him.


    ¡°Capture this person!¡±


    Xin Sui waved his scepter, and the golden light in the sky turned into wisps of Sword Qi.


    Then, he commanded the people in the town to attack together.


    He had to suppress Zhou Feng as soon as possible.


    The longer this situation dragged on, the greater the blow to his reputation.


    Therefore, Xin Sui did not plan to suppress Zhou Feng by himself.


    And if he was not mistaken, the thing floating above Zhou Feng¡¯s head should be a connate numinous treasure!


    ¡®A connate numinous treasure! I¡¯m so lucky!¡¯


    Under such circumstances, Xin Sui was like a certain someone from before, thinking that this was his opportunity.


    A connate numinous treasure! It was delivered to his doorstep just like that?


    At that moment, Xin Sui even thought that he was dreaming.


    ¡°Quickly!¡±


    ¡°Hurry up!¡±


    The cultivators in the town immediately began to move upon receiving Xin Sui¡¯s words.


    This was a chance to perform well in front of the Town Lord!


    A mere Divine Ability cultivator had gone mad for some unknown reason and behaved atrociously here.


    One had to know that the Town Lord was a grand Dragon Transformation cultivator. Wasn¡¯t it easy to deal with a Divine Ability cultivator?


    For a time, not only was the entire town¡¯s great formation activated, but many cultivators were also rushing toward Zhou Feng.


    But what these people didn¡¯t know was that they had helped Zhou Feng a great deal.


    Against a Dragon Transformation cultivator like Xin Sui and with the help of a great formation, he wouldn¡¯t have much chance of winning.


    Simply put, Zhou Feng was really helpless in a one-on-one battle.


    But one against many, the situation instantly reversed.


    Void spears rained down from the sky like a storm.


    The destructive Great Void Primordial Qi was not something that ordinary Divine Ability cultivators could resist.


    These ordinary Divine Ability cultivators did not pose any threat to him.


    And that was not the worst part. The worst part was that¡­ these people who had swarmed up had all become bags of nutrients for Zhou Feng.


    The flesh and blood of these people were like swallows returning to their nests, continuously gathering in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands.


    Nourishment!


    They had all become Zhou Feng¡¯s nourishment.


    The steps of extracting the longevity substances were all handed over to the AI, while Zhou Feng only needed to fight seriously.


    ¡°Retreat!¡±


    ¡°Quickly retreat! What kind of evil technique is this?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Such a terrifying scene instantly scared everyone out of their wits.


    Was this a f*cking human or a ghost?


    And what kind of demonic technique was this? The more people he killed, the stronger he became?


    This was a bit unreasonable!


    The increase in the number of longevity substances accelerated the transformation of Zhou Feng¡¯s Longevity bloodline.


    For a moment, the power of his soul also began to increase.


    ¡®These longevity substances not only are they useful for the body, but they¡¯re also useful for the soul?


    Zhou Feng suddenly understood.


    He had fallen into this special state not because he had an epiphany but due to the longevity substances.


    These longevity substances could affect not only the body but also the soul.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mind became exceptionally clear.


    His understanding of the path of cultivation also became clearer.


    These longevity substances were simply equivalent to the legendary Enlightenment Fruit.


    ¡®How did I discover the longevity substances?¡¯


    Even Zhou Feng himself felt a little incredulous at this moment.


    Relying on these nutrients, he felt that his physical body could already withstand the power of the laws of the Great Void Dao.


    A huge millstone appeared in his hand.


    This millstone¡¯s Great Void Primordial Qi was continuously entangling and rotating, and traces of a world-destroying aura began to leak out.


    ¡°Monster! Run! You have to run!¡±


    At that moment, the bloodline in Xin Sui¡¯s body actually warned him.


    This person in front of him was extremely dangerous, and he could not continue like this.


    If he continued to fight, the one who would die would definitely be him, and not Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Run?¡¯


    When Xin Sui thought of this word, he was almost ashamed to death by his thoughts.


    A Divine Ability madman had stormed onto his turf, yet not only could he not defeat him, but he also wanted to run away?


    However, Xin Sui instantly suppressed that trace of shame.


    Even Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t react as Xin Sui¡¯s figure disappeared.


    ¡°My life is more important!¡±


    At this time, the other cultivators in the town seemed not to dare to believe their eyes.


    The atmosphere instantly became stiff.


    ¡®Ran¡­ Ran away?¡¯


    ¡®The Town Lord ran away?¡¯


    Since the Town Lord set the example, the others naturally chose to follow him.


    What were they still doing here if even the Dragon Transformation Town Lord ran away?


    Waiting to die?


    Following one¡¯s heart was an advantage that all cultivators had to have.


    Cultivation was never a race for time.


    Even though Xin Sui looked a little pathetic now, he could return and act as the Town Lord again after Zhou Feng left.


    The others wouldn¡¯t even dare to say anything. They could still rely on this town to absorb large amounts of cultivation resources for their own cultivation.


    If they fought to the end, the final result would be death.


    Xin Sui had already chosen the best solution out of the two choices.


    ¡°Is it like this?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the empty place in front of him and did not choose to chase after them.


    His entire person once again fell into that mysterious state.

 Chapter 512 - Breakthrough!

    Zhou Feng continued to advance east. As long as anyone stopped him, they would become nutrients for him.


    Also, he had gotten a very deep understanding of the word ¡®longevity¡¯.


    From a certain perspective, longevity meant that one would always maintain a state.


    But in reality, it was impossible for a person to always maintain a state.


    The Three Treasures of the human body1 would increase or decrease as one grew older.


    2


    Then, would it be possible to change the state all the time so that the Three Treasures of the human body could maintain a balance.


    It was just like how the leaves of trees would fall off in winter, making it seem as if they were dying.


    However, when spring came, they would be able to radiate vitality.


    ¡°If there are longevity substances, this seems to be possible! Longevity substances can guarantee death and true death!


    ¡°Aging! And then rebirth!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes grew brighter and brighter.


    This seemed to be a path to immortality, but if one wanted to live forever, this kind of logic similar to reincarnation, would not work.


    He did not think so far ahead. At present, he only wanted to maintain the vitality of his physical body forever.


    Eternal lifeform! It was impossible to only rely on extracting bloodlines, but one could obtain them through other means.


    ¡°There are also longevity substances in Spiritual Qi! Or rather, the entire world is filled with longevity substances!¡±


    However, these longevity substances could not be captured at all.


    It was difficult to detect them, and one could only rely on certain means to continuously devour them.


    Zhou Feng had a hint of his own cultivation technique in his heart.


    The Longevity bloodline in his body began to surge continuously, and everything in the surroundings was devoured.


    Then, through the new passive skill, Perfect Transformation1, every form of energy that Zhou Feng absorbed would be transformed into pure Spiritual Qi.


    1


    It stabilized!


    There was a breakthrough in the concept, which also caused the Longevity bloodline to stabilize.


    The longevity substances were no longer leaking out!


    Soon, his physical body underwent a transformation.


    There was no need for him to deliberately cultivate at all.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s realm naturally broke through!?


    From the Divine Ability realm to the Dragon Transformation realm!


    This seemed to be a very natural transition. His body, including his bones, had been baptized once, and a huge wave of energy began to lurk in his body.


    If his body could transform nine times, then this hidden wave of energy would burst out in an instant and push him to a higher realm.


    ¡°Is this the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng closed his eyes and sensed his condition for a moment.


    This feeling was as if he had changed to high-quality hardware. It was smooth and silky.


    The strange state from before also slowly disappeared.


    However, another problem that followed was becoming more and more obvious.


    Since Zhou Feng created the Longevity bloodline, he had dissolved many longevity substances into his bloodline.


    His physical body had become a little strange, and it constantly exuded an inexplicable fragrance.


    ¡°This time, I have really turned into Tang Sanzang! No! My predicament is even worse than


    Tang Sanzang¡¯s!¡±


    Zhou Feng killed the little bugs that were constantly crawling toward him.


    There was a trace of worry between his brows.


    Even these little bugs were like moths to a flame. They kept pouncing at him, and it was as if they had gone crazy.


    He was very clear that the longevity substances caused this.


    The Longevity bloodline had stabilized, causing his body to undergo a transformation and break through to the Dragon Transformation realm, but it was also because of this reason that Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh and blood carried the smell of longevity substances.


    Those insects with little intelligence seemed to have gone crazy when they smelled this fragrance and kept wanting to eat his flesh and blood.


    Zhou Feng had no way to hide it.


    Unless one day his Longevity bloodline underwent a perfect transformation, allowing the longevity substances to stop dissipating.


    This kind of transformation made Zhou Feng extremely uncomfortable.


    This meant that it was no longer realistic to continue living.


    1


    That was unless Zhou Feng could hide in the mountains and forests.


    ¡®I need more resources! More cultivation techniques! Only with more accumulation can I create an immortal technique!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was very clear.


    The AI¡¯s database was limited, and he could not create his own cultivation technique yet. He needed more reference materials and more cultivation techniques.


    ¡°Then I can only start killing!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not hesitate. Hiding in the deep mountains and forests was not his style at all.


    It just so happened that he needed more longevity substances, and he also needed to stack his passive skills.


    If someone came to seek death, that would be the best.


    Zhou Feng looked at the skill panel and found that the passive Human Slayer already had thousands of stacks.


    ¡®I unconsciously killed so many people? Were there really so many?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was puzzled. Was it because too many people were seeking death along the way?


    ¡®Huh? Is someone seeking death again?¡¯


    Zhou Feng sensed that three people were rapidly approaching.


    Moreover, these three people seemed to have been following Zhou Feng for a long time.


    However, because these three people hadn¡¯t made a move against him, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t bother with them.


    Could it be that they couldn¡¯t hold it in anymore?


    ¡°Senior! Senior!¡±


    ¡°Senior, Please Wait a moment!¡±


    Zhou Feng stopped and turned his head.


    He saw two men and a woman; their cultivation bases were at the Divine Ability realm.


    The two men were considered rather handsome, and their temperaments were more like those of the descendants of the nobility.


    As for the woman, her appearance was somewhat unexpected.


    Ugly! Extremely ugly!


    Her face was covered with all sorts of bumps, and her skin was incomparably rough. It was as if her facial features had been distorted.


    1


    Such an appearance was considered very rare among cultivators.


    This was because cosmetic surgery was not a problem for cultivators in the later stages of cultivation.


    Not to mention, as one¡¯s cultivation increased, whether it was their appearance or temperament, they would all improve.


    It was actually very rare for a cultivator to be so ugly.


    Jiang Qi didn¡¯t wait for Zhou Feng to speak and directly asked first, ¡°Excuse me, Senior, are you going to the easternmost spiritual land to participate in the Spirit Filling Convention?¡±


    ¡®Spirit Filling Convention? What kind of gathering is this?¡¯


    After Zhou Feng heard about the Spirit Filling Convention, he inexplicably thought of the various gatherings he had attended before.


    Although he had never heard of any Spirit Filling Convention, his destination was the easternmost spiritual land because the easternmost spiritual land was the place where the Spiritual Veins in this part of the Eastern Land were the most concentrated.


    It was also a place where countless cultivators gathered.


    Not only were there countless countries, but there were also various sects and aristocratic families. There were also ruins left behind from the ancient times.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s goal was to find all kinds of ancient cultivation techniques.


    He wanted to know how the cultivators in the ancient times pursued the path of immortality.


    Those great cultivators would definitely explore the path of immortality when they cultivated to the end.


    After all, a cultivator with great power would definitely not allow themselves to slowly die of old age.


    The cultivators of the ancient era had definitely explored the path of immortality.


    It just so happened that Zhou Feng could use it as a reference.


    As for why he was looking for the ancient era¡¯s immortality-related cultivation techniques, this was naturally because it was the easiest to obtain cultivation techniques of the previous eras.


    Things like modern immortality cultivation techniques were definitely considered family heirlooms by the various forces that existed.


    Zhou Feng had no hope of obtaining them at all.


    Therefore, he could only focus his sight on the ancient times.


    ¡®There¡¯s something wrong with this person¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t answer Jiang Qi¡¯s words. He just turned his head and continued to move forward.

 Chapter 513 - The Fall of the King of Soft Rice

    Because of the changes in his body, Zhou Feng did not want to cause any more trouble.


    Although he thought that the longevity substances in his bloodline did not leak out, the longevity substances were still leaking out. His realm was not high enough, so he could not detect them.


    It was precisely because of this that he had to raise his vigilance.


    He had truly turned into Tang Sanzang.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Jiang Qi didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to actually turn around and leave.


    Could it be that he wasn¡¯t interested in the Spirit Filling Convention?


    In reality, Jiang Qi didn¡¯t intend to go to the so-called Spirit Filling Convention. This was just an excuse to get to know Zhou Feng.


    However, Zhou Feng ignored him, so Jiang Qi had no way to continue the conversation.


    He had no choice but to look back.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    Niu Ru didn¡¯t make a sound. She gave a command with her lips.


    Jiang Qi continued to go forward to test Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Delicious! Truly delicious!¡¯


    Niu Ru looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s back, saliva dripping out of her mouth.


    Her eyes revealed a desire that made people¡¯s backs turn cold.


    ¡®This is definitely the spirit body that Master mentioned! As long as I eat this person, my facial injuries will be healed!¡¯


    1


    It turned out that Niu Ru wasn¡¯t born with this appearance. It was because she cultivated a divine ability that caused her to become like this.


    Therefore, in order to recover her original appearance, Niu Ru entered the Demonic Path.


    Jiang Qi and the other male cultivator were just slaves that she kept in captivity.


    ¡®This might be a chance to get rid of this devil!¡¯


    When Jiang Qi saw this, he looked very troubled, as if he was extremely unwilling.


    However, he was very calm in his heart.


    This might be a chance to get rid of his predicament.


    ¡®This witch has cultivated a demonic divine ability! I might be the next to be eaten!


    ¡®If I don¡¯t take this opportunity to get rid of this witch, I¡¯ll die in the end!¡¯ Jiang Qi analyzed calmly in his heart.


    He knew Niu Ru very well.


    This witch hadn¡¯t chosen the bloodline cultivation system. Instead, she had picked the ghost cultivation system.


    She had become like this because of the influence of the resentment and Ghost Qi, and then the conflict between the bloodlines in her body.


    If there were no accidents, she definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to live for long.


    Therefore, Niu Ru cultivated the peculiar Hungry Ghost Ability. She needed to eat almost every moment, and the more she ate, the hungrier but stronger she became.


    The other cultivators were the best supplements.


    Before Jiang Qi, more than ten people had already fallen into Niu Ru¡¯s mouth.


    If not for his good looks, good oral skills, and above-average battle prowess, Jiang Qi would have been reduced to food long ago.


    1


    However, Niu Ru was already somewhat tired of him. It was also because of this that Jiang Qi would think of ways to save himself.


    Otherwise, he would not have such thoughts.


    Jiang Qi had experienced happiness for some time due to his boytoy status. Not only did he not need to do any work, but he could also have many cultivation resources.


    His realm and strength had increased step by step.


    Also, although Niu Ru was a little ugly, her figure was not bad at all.


    As the saying went, ¡°Everyone looks the same when the lights are turned off.¡±


    ¡®As long as I can live and make a breakthrough, all my past experiences will just be floating clouds!¡¯


    Jiang Qi was not ashamed of his actions at all.


    Instead, he thought he had an epiphany and got rid of the secular world¡¯s view.


    This was the most qualified cultivator. After all, the difference between a cultivator and a mortal was like the difference between heaven and earth.


    The secular world¡¯s view wasn¡¯t important at all.


    Slave? Boytoy? When that time came, as long as Niu Ru died, who would know about this period of history?


    Jiang Qi made all sorts of preparations in his heart and immediately quickened his pace.


    He caught up with Zhou Feng, who was in front.


    Niu Ru¡¯s expression slightly changed as she hugged the other toyboy beside her and retreated frantically.


    ¡®I just need to use a move to divert the tide of trouble! This witch will definitely die a horrible death!¡¯


    Jiang Qi didn¡¯t notice this at all.


    At that moment, he was still thinking about how to use Zhou Feng¡¯s hand to get rid of this witch.


    In Jiang Qi¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was absolutely terrifying.


    They had seen countless corpses along the way. It was very obvious that it was Zhou Feng¡¯s doing.


    Otherwise, that witch wouldn¡¯t have been so afraid of Zhou Feng and asked Jiang Qi to probe him.


    Jiang Qi had to use great benefits to entice such a senior. Furthermore, he absolutely couldn¡¯t speak nonsense.


    ¡®I¡­ What¡¯s wrong with me?¡¯


    Jiang Qi was somewhat puzzled as the surrounding environment was rapidly retreating.


    In the next second, he lost consciousness.


    Zhou Feng had made a move and severed Jiang Qi¡¯s head with void threads.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s right hand moved slightly, and Jiang Qi¡¯s head flew over like a yo-yo.


    ¡®She escaped?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked behind him and found that the extremely ugly woman had already disappeared.


    ¡®What a pity¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt a little pity in his heart. ¡®If only I had made my move a little earlier.¡¯


    In his perception, that woman seemed to be a little unusual.


    The condition of her physical body was very complicated, but he should be able to extract a lot of longevity substances.


    ¡®You actually dare to have designs on me? Let me see why you are so bold!¡±


    He didn¡¯t just extract Jiang Qi¡¯s flesh and blood, but he even began to search his soul.


    The soul-searching technique had a drawback, so he wouldn¡¯t choose to search the soul unless the situation was special.


    Immediately, many memory fragments began to attack Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    The AI immediately began to sort out all the memory fragments into categories.


    During this process, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression became stranger and stranger.


    ¡°This¡­ is quite thoughtful! The king of soft rice1? The Hungry Ghost Ability?


    ¡°As expected, some cultivators in the Eastern Land still don¡¯t follow the bloodline cultivation system.¡±


    Zhou Feng obtained a large amount of information from Jiang Qi¡¯s memories.


    Most of it was related to Niu Ru, and Zhou Feng was really interested in her Hungry Ghost Ability.


    This was obviously some kind of demonic ability that could strengthen the cultivator by eating people.


    It could even increase one¡¯s lifespan.


    From Jiang Qi¡¯s memories, Niu Ru seemed to have lived for a long time, but her skin was as soft, smooth, and tight as a young girl¡¯s.


    Her body did not even exude a hint of deathly aura.


    This seemed to be a method to reach immortality. If Zhou Feng could obtain this demonic ability, he might be able to research some things.


    Unfortunately, Niu Ru was extremely vigilant. She instantly fled when she saw that the situation wasn¡¯t right.


    Then came the Spirit-Filling Convention in the easternmost spiritual land.


    ¡®The Eastern Land¡¯s cultivators¡­ are actually reclaiming the sea and creating land?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little puzzled.


    ¡®All the forces in the Eastern Land are united and reclaiming the sea together?


    ¡°How come? What benefits could unite so many forces?¡¯


    Many questions appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.

 Chapter 514 - The Azure Fox Clan

    ¡°Apart from the Spirit Filling Convention, there are several tombs of Sages in the easternmost spiritual land!¡±


    After Zhou Feng saw this part of Jiang Qi¡¯s memory, he immediately became spirited because those who could be called Sages had cultivation levels at least above the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Moreover, these Sages had all pursued the path of immortality and had left behind their descendants.


    The descendants of these Sages formed various super aristocratic families.


    Zhou Feng actually didn¡¯t care much about the above.


    What he cared about was that the legends said that the Sages had left behind incomplete techniques to reach immortality before they died of old age.


    These Sages had also passed down decrees to their descendants¡ªas long as anyone from their families could break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, they would be able to enter the tomb and inherit this technique of immortality.


    Of course, this was only a rumor, and there were many parts where the logic wasn¡¯t right.


    Zhou Feng definitely wouldn¡¯t believe all of them.


    The cultivation technique to reach immortality was something that everyone yearned for. How could a Sage be so stupid?


    Publicly saying that there was a cultivation technique to reach immortality in their tomb?


    Wasn¡¯t this asking people to start tomb raiding?


    There was definitely another plan, but Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care. He didn¡¯t know if there was a cultivation technique that could help one to reach immortality in the Sages¡¯ tombs, but there were definitely other cultivation techniques.


    ¡°Then¡­ Let¡¯s continue moving forward!¡±


    Zhou Feng adjusted his state of mind and continued moving forward while absorbing all the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings.


    ¡­


    ¡°I¡¯m so hungry! I¡¯m so hungry!¡±


    Niu RU¡¯s expression was a little crazy at this moment. She only felt that her stomach was burning crazily.


    The boytoy had already disappeared.


    But even so, her stomach was still very hungry.


    Her mind was filled with Zhou Feng¡¯s figure. That kind of fragrance was something she had never encountered before.


    That was definitely some kind of spirit body. Even if it wasn¡¯t a spirit body, it was still some kind of special constitution.


    ¡°As long as I swallow this person, my Hungry Ghost Ability will definitely be perfected!¡±


    Niu Ru couldn¡¯t even close her mouth now. Large amounts of transparent saliva flowed down.


    Her entire body began twitching, and she would let out an inexplicable ghost cry from time to time.


    Just her appearance alone was enough to send chills down people¡¯s spines.


    ¡°But I can¡¯t win! If I can¡¯t win, I can call for help! Then who should I call?¡±


    Niu Ru slowly recovered from that crazy state.


    Facing Zhou Feng alone was absolutely impossible.


    She might have already turned into a corpse if she hadn¡¯t been smart enough.


    Therefore, she had to find a helper, preferably someone strong enough.


    ¡®Seductive fox! That seductive fox will definitely be interested!¡¯


    Niu Ru instantly thought of someone.


    The so-called seductive fox had the Azure Fox bloodline and cultivated the Yin-Yang Dao.


    At present, she was looking for a suitable husband.


    ¡®That person is young and strong enough.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t he the best husband material?¡¯


    ¡®What that seductive fox wants is Yang Qi, and what I want is flesh and blood.


    ¡®Alright! Let¡¯s look for that seductive fox!¡¯


    Niu Ru suddenly started to laugh strangely.


    ¡­


    ¡°Hmm? Trouble? No! A mix of good and bad?¡±


    While Niu Ru was scheming against Zhou Feng, the latter immediately felt it.


    The AI had issued a warning¡ªhe might encounter trouble in the future, but it could also be bad and good.


    Moreover, the source of trouble was very likely that extremely ugly woman.


    Niu Ru might not know, but when she appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, the AI had already recorded Niu RU¡¯s information.


    Then, using this as a basis, it used Hexadirectional Calculation to carry out countless deductions.


    ¡°Is she trying to eat me? But why is it a mix of good and bad? Could there be something good in this?¡±


    Zhou Feng thought of the Hungry Ghost Ability that Niu Ru cultivated.


    Wasn¡¯t it obvious?


    Niu Ru wanted to devour him to cultivate the demonic ability.


    But what puzzled him was why this might turn out to be a good thing.


    With this question in mind, Zhou Feng continued to move forward.


    There was still a long way to go from here to the easternmost spiritual land, and he needed to cross many countries.


    Because Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Dragon Transformation realm, that special state that was similar to an epiphany had also disappeared.


    Therefore, he kept a low profile, and his entire body was covered with a black robe.


    Next, he would travel quietly!


    At the Azure Fox Clan¡­


    This was one of the few daemonic clans that could be accepted by humans in ancient times because there was an Azure Fox Sage who had once married a certain Human Emperor as a concubine.


    Therefore, the status of the Azure Fox Clan had once been very noble for a period.


    As for why the Azure Fox Clan was able to do this, there were several reasons. One of them was their appearance.


    That¡¯s right!


    Everyone with the Azure Fox bloodline was a peerless beauty that could bring disaster to the country and the people.


    Their innate seductive grace made it difficult for all males to reject.


    Even peerless figures like the Human Emperors had almost been bewildered.


    The second was dual cultivation!


    The Azure Fox¡¯s body carried a trace of the aura of union. It was one of the top dual cultivation cauldrons in the world.


    After dual cultivation, it would carry the aura of the other party.


    What did this mean?


    Simply put, the Azure Fox could only dual cultivate with one person in its lifetime.


    Once they dual cultivated, both their cultivation and aptitude would be enhanced by the Union Qi.


    Even their fates would be bound together. Or it could be said that the word ¡®attachment¡¯ was more suitable.


    After dual cultivation, the Azure Fox did not need to cultivate on its own. It only needed its partner to cultivate.


    The stronger the partner¡¯s realm was, the stronger the Azure Fox¡¯s realm would be.


    This was equivalent to becoming a parasite, constantly absorbing the strength and luck of its partner.


    Therefore, the most important task in the Azure Fox Clan¡¯s life was choosing a peerless figure as their partner.


    This was not a secret among the many cultivators.


    However, all cultivators would yearn to be taken in by the Azure Fox Clan.


    Who could reject a peerless beauty who was dedicated to them and would never betray them?


    Furthermore, for the Azure Fox Clan to take a liking to you, it meant that your aptitude was terrifying enough.


    An ordinary genius might not even be able to withstand the favor of the Azure Fox Clan.


    The favor of the Azure Fox Clan was not a joke.


    It was said that the Azure Fox Clan was not like this in the beginning.


    It was just that once, the Azure Fox Clan had encountered an unprecedented crisis.


    They had offended a peerless genius and almost went extinct.


    After that, the ancestors of the Azure Fox Clan started making connections. There were so many monstrous prodigies in this world.


    It was better to bind themselves to these monstrous prodigies.


    What was the saying?


    If you could not become the strongest, then you must become the person behind the strongest?


    In history, quite a few Azure Foxes had achieved this goal.


    Even a male Azure Fox had hooked up with a Central Plains Empress and once suppressed the Central Plains.


    ¡°Ancestor!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°I heard that a true freak has appeared!¡±


    ¡°A true freak? There are no freaks in the Eastern Land. The true freaks are all in the Central Plains¡­¡±


    In the Azure Fox cave, a beautiful woman with a plump figure had a disdainful expression on her face.


    She obviously did not believe that there would be any monsters in the Eastern Land.


    The real monsters were all in the Central Plains. Only the people in the Central Plains were qualified to be called monsters.


    For people from other places to be called geniuses was already considered incredible.

 Chapter 515 - Explosive Kill!

    As far as the Azure Fox Elder was concerned, she did not believe that the Eastern Lands could produce any monsters.


    This was because compared to the dao children of the Central Plains, most of the people of the Eastern Lands only relied on renting shade.


    She would return to the Central Plains sooner or later, as long as she recovered from her injuries.


    ¡°This time seems to be a little different. This person does not follow the bloodline cultivation system.¡±


    A voice sounded from below.


    This time, the person they found seemed to have come from another place.


    Moreover, this person¡¯s physique was a bit special, similar to the legendary spirit body.


    The Azure Fox Clan was known as the parasite clan because their life goal was to select investment targets.


    Therefore, this clan¡¯s intel-gathering ability was top-notch.


    Almost all the geniuses of the Eastern Land were included in their observation list.


    After Niu Ru provided the intelligence, the Azure Fox Clan used various means to investigate Zhou Feng.


    The final discovery was naturally shocking, but they did not find anything more specific.


    However, they learned that Zhou Feng had killed his way from the west and scared away a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    ¡°Oh? It¡¯s worth testing him out!¡±


    The Azure Fox Patriarch was a little surprised when he heard this.


    If that was the case, it was worth testing out Zhou Feng.


    In any case, countless women in the Azure Fox Clan couldn¡¯t get married.


    The main reason was that their standards were too high. Those freakish geniuses were tightly protected, or they were wholeheartedly pursuing the great Dao,


    Given the Azure Fox Clan¡¯s high standards, there really weren¡¯t many people they could choose.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know that the test from the Azure Fox Clan was about to arrive.


    He was still constantly advancing.


    And as he walked further east, the number of cultivators began to increase.


    At the same time, it became more and more chaotic. It was as if there was a violent aura rising in the surroundings.


    It affected everyone, causing these cultivators to be very hot-tempered.


    In terms of order alone, it was actually inferior to the Sky Kingdom.


    He was also not clear about what had happened.


    ¡®Even the spiritual fields are gone? What happened?¡¯


    Spiritual fields were very common in the Eastern Lands.


    This was because it was a method that most cultivators used to obtain cultivation resources.


    It could be said that the foundation of every village was the spiritual fields.


    But from the beginning, Zhou Feng had never seen any spiritual fields.


    Even if there was one, it was abandoned.


    ¡®And why has the Spiritual Qi become so thin?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body had already sent out a signal of hunger.


    The density of the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings had been continuously decreasing, and he felt like he was in a barren land.


    He did not know why, but he had a feeling that this situation was very likely because of the Spirit Filling Convention in the easternmost land.


    ¡®Oh? It¡¯s finally here?¡¯


    Before Zhou Feng could continue pondering, he sensed a familiar aura.


    This was Niu Ru, who had left earlier.


    ¡®She actually returned at this time? It seems that she has found a helper¡­¡¯


    ¡®Let¡¯s wait for that seductive fox to make a move. I¡¯ll deliberately stay behind to watch the show!


    ¡®If that seductive fox cannot deal with him, I¡¯ll escape immediately. If¡­¡¯


    Niu Ru did not know that Zhou Feng had long discovered her.


    While she was secretly plotting in her heart, she had no idea that the so-called seductive fox she had invited was actually a spy of the Azure Fox Clan.


    That¡¯s right!


    Niu Ru did not have the face to invite the Azure Fox Clan.


    She only knew a green fox, which was different from the Azure Fox Clan¡¯s high-end route.


    The green foxes walked the mass path, and absorbing Yang Qi was only the most basic skill.


    It was the ultimate skill to seduce a man¡¯s soul and make him infatuated.


    All Azure Foxes disdained such low-end methods. The highest skill was to completely capture a person¡¯s heart.


    ¡®Dragon Transformation realm? It seems like he just broke through¡­¡¯


    Mei¡¯er began to observe Zhou Feng.


    She was the helper that Niu Ru had invited over.


    When Mei¡¯er felt Zhou Feng¡¯s realm, a trace of fear instantly rose in her heart.


    The mind of a Dragon Transformation cultivator was not so easy to bewitch.


    However, in the next second, Mei¡¯er felt a throbbing sensation all over her body.


    ¡®This feeling!? As long as I can have s*x with this person, it¡¯s possible for me to break through? No wonder!¡¯


    1


    For some reason, Zhou Feng gave people a strange attraction.


    Mei¡¯er finally understood why that b*tch Niu Ru actually wanted to attack a Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    ¡®This¡­ this is really too fragrant!¡¯


    Moreover, Zhou Feng was not only handsome but also gave people a very natural and comfortable feeling.


    Even though Mei¡¯er had seen countless men, Zhou Feng could be considered a top-notch handsome guy.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng had a few passive effects that increased his charm.


    In an instant, the color of Mei¡¯er¡¯s clothes changed slightly, from light to dark.


    Mei¡¯er seemed low-spirited, and her eyes were a little dazed as she walked out.


    ¡°Hmm?¡±


    Thus, Zhou Feng saw a woman staggering over.


    He saw that this woman had a plump figure, a slim waist, and slender legs. Her skin was delicate and fair, giving off a tinge of red.


    At first glance, she was stunning.


    For such a beauty to appear in such a place, this was the first impression most people had.


    Furthermore, the aura Mei¡¯er was exhibiting now was not the same as before.


    Instead, it gave off a graceful and dignified feeling.


    Although the clothes on her body looked very luxurious, they were slightly worn out. There were even holes in some places.


    It was as if she was a beauty in distress who had escaped to this place.


    ¡®Men¡­¡¯


    Mei¡¯er¡¯s appearance was the final conclusion she came up with after analyzing countless men.


    It was the most seductive and the appearance that made men unable to reject her.


    When faced with her appearance, some people would use force directly, while others would be pretentious.


    However, no one could avoid it.


    Moreover, the most wonderful thing was that if she encountered those madmen bent on pursuing the Dao, Mei¡¯er could still leave directly. After all, those ascetics were usually thinking about cultivation.


    They would not deliberately care for a person who was in trouble.


    When the time came, Mei¡¯er would only need to see Zhou Feng¡¯s performance to determine what to do next.


    And in order to achieve the best effect, Mei¡¯er even deliberately suppressed the charm in her bloodline.


    In order not to provoke Zhou Feng too much.


    ¡®Courting death?¡¯


    However, Mei¡¯er probably didn¡¯t know that Zhou Feng¡¯s opinion of her was that she was courting death.


    He had killed countless people along the way.


    The murderous aura on his body hadn¡¯t even dissipated, and the smell of blood was still lingering in the air.


    Now, she suddenly appeared and pretended to be in trouble? Whose intelligence was he insulting?


    To be honest, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t an ascetic. He had his needs.


    However, he was a very clear-headed person.


    He had to do it in the safest environment when he vented his emotions.


    1


    Hence, Zhou Feng did not speak. His expression was the same as before.


    Unexpectedly, a void spear appeared on Mei¡¯er¡¯s chest.


    It was very fast and stealthy!


    ¡°Ahh!¡±


    Mei¡¯er¡¯s mouth and eyes were wide open as she looked at Zhou Feng.


    1

 Chapter 516 - Realm Crushing

    Mei¡¯er did not expect that Zhou Feng would be so decisive.


    Moreover, she actually had no way to dodge his attack!?


    ¡®The protective spiritual artifact on my body was not even activated? What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    Actually, it was not that Mei¡¯er did not expect that Zhou Feng would attack.


    On the contrary, she had already gone through a series of deductions in her heart before this.


    The strongest ability of the Azure Fox Clan, including the green foxes, was still their life-saving ability.


    Being able to choose one monstrous prodigy after another and ultimately live on was the true purpose of the Azure Fox Clan.


    Therefore, one¡¯s life-saving ability was extremely important to the Azure Fox Clan.


    And as a branch member of the Azure Fox Clan, Mei¡¯er was also proficient in life-saving techniques.


    Unfortunately, none of her life-saving techniques had any effect at this moment.


    ¡®Why? My Severed Tail Ability¡­¡¯


    Mei¡¯er¡¯s eyes were a little confused.


    The Severed Tail Ability was an innate divine ability that originated from the bloodline.


    When faced with a life-and-death crisis, one would give up one of their tails to save their life.


    Only a few foxes could cultivate this divine ability.


    Mei¡¯er had suffered a lot in order to cultivate a second tail.


    But now, this divine ability did not have any effect.


    ¡®What dense lifeforce!¡¯


    Zhou Feng used the Grand Demon-Devouring Art to continuously devour the flesh and blood of the person in front of him.


    During this process, he even used the origin-tracing method.


    This was because he had discovered that the origin-tracing technique seemed to be able to lock onto any bloodline.


    On the other hand, Mei¡¯er¡¯s Severed Tail Ability was activated by relying on her bloodline, so Zhou Feng happened to lock onto it.


    ¡®What terrifying Blood Qi!¡¯


    He spent a lot of effort to completely suck Mei¡¯er dry.


    Zhou Feng devoured all of Mei¡¯er¡¯s flesh and blood, including her spiritual power.


    Then, the passive Perfect Transformation digested and transformed them into pure Spiritual Qi.


    At that moment, he felt that his body seemed to have mended some things.


    The Longevity bloodline began to become stable.


    Why was this so?


    At this time, Zhou Feng suddenly realized that he seemed to be able to perfectly control the Grand Demon-Devouring Art.


    The passive Perfect Transformation, coupled with the Grand Demon-Devouring Art, wasn¡¯t it invincible?


    He probably didn¡¯t need to worry about the lack of cultivation resources in the future.


    As long as someone came looking for trouble with him, they would naturally become his nourishment.


    As long as he could remain alive, Zhou Feng would only become stronger and stronger in the end.


    ¡®There¡¯s still one more person!¡¯


    After dealing with Mei¡¯er, Zhou Feng naturally didn¡¯t forget Niu Ru, who was following behind him.


    At that moment, Niu Ru was already scared out of her wits.


    ¡®Dead¡­ That seductive fox died!?¡¯


    Niu Ru¡¯s hands and feet were a little cold. She was very clear about the strength of Mei¡¯er, yet she still fell when facing Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Run!¡¯


    This was the only thought in Niu Ru¡¯s heart.


    This kind of person was absolutely not someone she could afford to offend.


    ¡®But why was I possessed previously? This person is clearly in the Dragon Transformation realm and killed countless people along the way.¡¯


    Niu Ru only felt that she was making a fool of herself. Logically speaking, she couldn¡¯t make such a low-level mistake.


    She recalled that when she met Zhou Feng, her body had actually surged with a strange desire.


    That kind of desire was the body¡¯s instinct.


    Now that she thought about it carefully, the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became.


    ¡®Fortunately! This person probably didn¡¯t notice me¡­¡¯


    Niu Ru didn¡¯t have the face of a schemer from before. Instead, she looked as if she had woken up.


    However, in the next second, a huge spear pierced through her body¡ªfrom the same strange angle and without sound.


    Zhou Feng had already arrived in front of Niu Ru.


    ¡®Let¡¯s search her soul first!¡¯


    He thought for a moment and felt that it was better to search her soul first.


    This was because when Zhou Feng had searched Jiang Qi¡¯s soul, he had discovered that the cultivation technique that Niu Ru cultivated seemed to have the effect of prolonging her life.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng¡¯s advantage right now was simply too great against Divine Ability cultivators.


    Putting aside the fact that he previously killed cultivators of the same realm while he was a Divine Ability cultivator, it was as simple as slaughtering chickens and dogs.


    At present, he had broken through to the Dragon Transformation realm and succeeded in creating the Longevity bloodline.


    The transformation of his physical body supported him to be able to travel through the great void for a long time.


    He had already comprehended the Great Void Primordial Art to the great success stage.


    The void spear was not only as fast as lightning, but it was also silent.


    It would be difficult for them to block his attack if it was not a cultivator of the same realm.


    Simply put, it was finally Zhou Feng¡¯s turn to crush others.


    It was normal for a Dragon Transformation cultivator to kill a Divine Ability cultivator in an instant.


    After searching Niu Ru¡¯s soul, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even let go of her flesh and blood.


    If it were someone who didn¡¯t know about this and saw this scene, they would definitely think that he was a deranged demonic cultivator.


    He possessed a soul-searching technique and could plunder flesh and blood!


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the slightest burden in his heart because this person wanted to scheme against him, and it was also a very reasonable thing for him to counterattack.


    ¡®Spirit-Eating Demon Scripture?¡¯


    After soul searching, Zhou Feng obtained an incomplete cultivation technique.


    This was because the soul-searching technique was not perfect enough, so he could only obtain incomplete memories.


    Moreover, regarding cultivation techniques, all cultivators would subconsciously keep it a secret.


    Sometimes, the soul-searching technique was not very effective.


    But this was enough. What he needed was only a reference.


    This Spirit-Eating Demon Scripture was actually a cultivation technique passed down from ancient times.


    It was also an outdated cultivation technique, like the Human Emperor Scripture that Zhou Feng had obtained back then.


    The one who created this cultivation technique was actually a Demon Monarch.


    Demon Monarch!


    This was an honorific for grand cultivators. Only those who were strong enough would be addressed as such.


    This Demon Monarch seemed to be a super antique. When his lifespan was about to be exhausted, he created this cultivation technique.


    It was to extend his own lifespan.


    The principle was to devour the longevity substances in the bodies of other cultivators to prolong his body¡¯s aging.


    ¡®As expected! The longevity substances were discovered in ancient times!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised because he actually found the description of the longevity substances from these memories.


    But for some reason, this Spirit-Eating Demon Scripture seemed to be very rough, and it wasn¡¯t even completed.


    To him, it could only be used as a reference.


    ¡®What a pity!¡¯


    Zhou Feng sighed somewhat regretfully and continued on his journey.


    He hoped that he could obtain new gains in the easternmost spiritual land.


    Zhou Feng did not stay for too long. After recuperating for a while, he continued to head east.


    Not long after he left, a few foxes ran out from the side and sniffed.


    Finally, they pulled Mei¡¯er¡¯s body out.


    ¡°Monster! He can¡¯t be considered, but he¡¯s a genius with potential!¡±


    ¡°It looks like he¡¯s going to the easternmost spiritual land!¡±


    ¡°Perfect! Isn¡¯t the easternmost spiritual land¡¯s Spirit Filling Convention about to start? We can pay attention to him!¡±


    ¡°Our Azure Fox Clan still needs help if we want to return to the Central Plains!¡±


    The foxes suddenly started speaking in human language.


    ¡°Of course! The Azure Foxes have been resting here for too long. It¡¯s time for us to be reborn!¡±


    ¡°However, in the Eastern Land, we can only invest in one person at most! The true monsters are still in the Central Plains¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±

 Chapter 517 - Cultivation Civilization

    The easternmost region!


    In the beginning, it referred to the entire Eastern Land, but no one knew when it began.


    The area of the easternmost region became smaller and smaller, and it became more and more eastward.


    Until now, only the place east of Mount Zitian could be called the easternmost region.


    After many days of running, Zhou Feng could be considered to have reached the easternmost region.


    Originally, he thought that this process would be very arduous.


    But in reality, this journey was very smooth.


    The further east he went, the fewer cultivators he saw and the more barren it was.


    Toward the end, he even passed through a desert.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhou Feng was somewhat stunned.


    Ancient trees were vigorous, their branches and leaves were lush, and their trunks extended into the sky like dragons.


    Just by looking at the appearance of these trees, one could tell just how rich the Spiritual Qi in this area was.


    And where Zhou Feng was standing was a desert.


    Just a line apart, one side was lush and verdant trees, and the other side was barren.


    Could this be considered a miracle?


    Just as Zhou Feng was shocked by the scene in front of him, a few rays of light flew past him.


    Then, a few dragon horses pulled the carriages in the air and entered the easternmost region.


    There were even some cultivators with lower cultivation bases who were rushing over.


    It was as if everyone was gathering toward this place, and no one was stopping them.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t continue to stand there foolishly.


    He took the first step, and his entire body seemed to have just passed through a thin layer of membrane.


    ¡®What dense Spiritual Qi!?¡¯


    As soon as he entered the easternmost region, he could feel the surrounding Spiritual Qi crazily drilling into his body.


    The density of this Spiritual Qi was too terrifying!


    Zhou Feng was actually not used to such an environment.


    However, even though he was not used to it, his body did not reject anything that came his way.


    He continuously devoured Spiritual Qi to use as nourishment.


    It was another Spiritual Qi vortex!


    He became the eye of the storm as the Spiritual Qi formed a storm.


    Such a strange phenomenon successfully made Zhou Feng the center of attention.


    ¡°It seems that there¡¯s another genius in the Eastern Land!¡±


    ¡°To be able to create such a strange phenomenon, his aptitude must be pretty good!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s a pity there are rules. Otherwise, I would have at least gotten to know him.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The trouble that Zhou Feng had expected didn¡¯t come.


    The people around him seemed to be well-informed, and they only looked at Zhou Feng a few more times.


    Then, they continued to walk forward. The eyes of the cultivators with lower cultivations lit up.


    It seemed that they wanted to hug Zhou Feng¡¯s thigh.


    Zhou Feng was somewhat surprised by their reaction.


    ¡®They¡¯re actually so calm? In other words, are there many monsters in the easternmost region?


    ¡®They often cause all sorts of strange phenomena, so this is why these people were not surprised?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was very interested in the easternmost region.


    ¡®If I¡¯m not wrong, someone must have set up a super huge formation to cover the entire easternmost region!¡¯


    Zhou Feng probed a little.


    He realized that it would not be as simple as he had imagined if he wanted to leave the easternmost region.


    Once the thought of leaving the easternmost region arose in his mind, the AI would immediately warn him that as long as he had the thought, it would be a great omen of danger.


    He could only enter but not leave?


    That was why he did not care how he absorbed the Spiritual Qi.


    ¡°Risks and opportunities coexist! Then let me see what kind of opportunities are here!¡±


    Zhou Feng continued to head east.


    ¡­


    ¡®Daemon League! Such an organization has formed in the Eastern Land?¡¯


    It had been three days since Zhou Feng had entered the easternmost region.


    After this period, he had a general understanding of the situation in the Eastern Land.


    No wonder the Eastern Land could compete with the Central Plains.


    All the big forces in the east had gathered together and moved all the Spiritual Veins to the easternmost region.


    They had even established an organization called the Daemon League.


    This Daemon League ruled the Eastern Land and had the power to distribute.


    Families, sects, and countries formed the Daemon League.


    It was hard to imagine how the organization known as the Daemon League operated.


    But one thing Zhou Feng was very clear about was that other than the easternmost region, the Eastern Land had become a barren land.


    The forces at the border were still fine.


    For example, forces like the Sky Kingdom could survive, but there were not many cultivators in the middle.


    All the cultivators were gathered together.


    ¡®How did this happen¡­¡¯


    Even Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but sigh.


    He didn¡¯t know how such a grand feat had been accomplished.


    All the resources in the Eastern Land had been gathered together!


    This result also caused the easternmost region to become extremely terrifying.


    Divine Ability realm! It was only a basic component of the easternmost region!


    As for those below the Divine Ability realm, they were all slaves! They had no basic rights at all.


    However, even if every cultivator below the Divine Ability realm became a slave, no one chose to leave.


    They were even willing to become slaves just to stay here for one more day.


    Zhou Feng had directly obtained a hukou because of his Dragon Transformation cultivation base.


    1


    He could freely walk around the easternmost region, and one couldn¡¯t force him to do anything.


    ¡®But if one wants to leave the easternmost region, they must at least break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt as if he had entered a den of thieves.


    Because all the resources and techniques to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm were in the hands of the Daemon League.


    Even the ancient tombs in the Eastern Land needed to be reported before they could be explored.


    A very mature system had already been formed here.


    ¡®Moreover, this so-called Daemon League wants to refine a Heavenly Dao on its own? And then use the artificial Heavenly Dao to monitor all the cultivators!¡¯


    Zhou Feng even found out that the Daemon League planned to refine a super connate numinous treasure called the Heavenly Dao.


    At that time, if it succeeded, everything in the Eastern Land would be supervised by a Heavenly Dao sphere.


    Injustice, corruption, and so on would never happen.


    Once it happened, they would be punished by the Heavenly Dao sphere.


    All cultivators could cultivate in peace and strive to break through.


    The Daemon League also provided the most basic necessities of life.


    In any case, the Daemon League had been promoting it like this recently.


    They were even recruiting talented Artifact Refiners to complete this grand idea.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, this was simply the formation of a high-level cultivation civilization.


    In terms of food and drink, given the means of cultivators, there was no need to worry at all.


    As long as an almighty cultivator made a slight move, they would be able to solve the problem of food for all the cultivators in the Eastern Land.


    Everyone¡¯s goal was only cultivation.


    Then, those almighty cultivators could finally rely on their strength.


    They would continue to plunder, making the easternmost region even more prosperous.


    ¡®It looks like I¡¯ll have to blend in¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s final choice was to blend in temporarily.


    At the very least, he would solve the problem of the Longevity bloodline here. It would be best if he could break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm here.

 Chapter 518 - Xue Ji

    At that moment, a cultivator was casting a divine ability in a spirit field that had been opened up.


    The Spiritual Qi in the surrounding area was continuously gathering, and then it turned into a spiritual rain that fell from the sky.


    It watered the spirit field, and the spiritual rice on the spirit field began to grow as if it was inflated.


    It took less than 15 minutes to break out of the ground and produce a mature spiritual rice plant.


    Zhou Feng watched the whole process from the side and thought, ¡®This divine ability¡­ contains the Dao of Creation?¡¯


    At the same time, the AI was analyzing the entire process.


    This seemed to be a very complicated divine ability that contained insights of the Dao of Creation and the Dao of Life.


    If one were not talented enough, it would be impossible to comprehend this divine ability.


    Having been in the easternmost region for so long, Zhou Feng discovered that this place was different from other places.


    One of the most important things was that cultivators were divided into two groups in the easternmost region.


    One group specialized in fighting. This group of cultivators only needed to break through and fight constantly.


    The other group was a bit like auxiliary cultivators. This group of cultivators specialized in buffs and auxiliary divine abilities.


    Instead, they would cultivate some other divine abilities.


    Take the Spiritual Essence Rain, for example. It was a very difficult yet popular divine ability.


    Once used, it could basically make a spiritual field mature once.


    Although this kind of cultivator would be far inferior in terms of combat, the treatment they received was far superior to that of ordinary combatants.


    This kind of situation seemed very normal to Zhou Feng.


    After all, cultivation resources were limited, and it was impossible for everyone to step to the peak of cultivation.


    A great cultivator often needed countless cultivators to support them.


    Still, this kind of logic could not be found elsewhere in the Eastern Land.


    No cultivator would do this. If it were possible, all cultivators would choose to continue breaking through instead of mastering a support-type divine ability.


    Zhou Feng had only encountered such a situation in the easternmost region.


    ¡®Contribution points¡­ Heavenly Dao Pavilion¡­¡¯


    The Heavenly Dao Pavilion was a treasure pavilion in the easternmost region. It collected the divine abilities and cultivation techniques of all the sects in Eastern Land.


    It was said that the previous Daemon League leader had spent countless efforts building it.


    As long as one had enough contribution points, everyone could exchange for them.


    There were some cultivation techniques there.


    There were even sect-guarding techniques in some sects in the past, but now, all of them were lying in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion.


    He had previously seen this Spiritual Essence Rain divine ability in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion.


    It required 200,000 contribution points, a price that was neither too high nor too low.


    ¡®If only I could see all the cultivation techniques in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion!¡¯


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but sigh inwardly when he thought of the contribution points.


    If he could exchange for all these cultivation techniques and turn them into the AI¡¯s database, perhaps he could really deduce the true technique to reach immortality.


    Unfortunately, the number of contribution points required was too much.


    During this period, he had been wandering around and had figured out how to obtain contribution points.


    In simple terms, he could complete various missions or join a certain faction.


    Joining a faction was the fastest way to obtain contribution points.


    However, Zhou Feng was used to being free and did not want to join any factions at all.


    Hence, there was only one method left¡ªcomplete missions!


    ¡®Fortunately, I can kill as I wish here. Otherwise, my situation would be no different than that of a prisoner¡­¡¯


    The more Zhou Feng observed, the more he felt that the easternmost region was like a prison.


    The only good thing was that they could kill as they pleased in the wild.


    They could even fight in the city if they could bear the consequences.


    The only taboo was that they couldn¡¯t attack the auxiliary cultivators unless they attacked first.


    ¡®Let¡¯s go¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng disappeared in an instant and left the spiritual field.


    The person who had just cast the Spiritual Essence Rain couldn¡¯t help but complain when he saw Zhou Feng leave, ¡°What a weirdo!¡±


    At the main city, the center of the easternmost land¡­


    The Heavenly Dao Pavilion was also located in this city.


    It was Zhou Feng¡¯s second time here.


    ¡®So lively?¡¯


    He was surprised to find that this place was quite lively. Many cultivators crowded together.


    ¡°They¡¯re here! The people from the Azure Fox Clan are already here!¡±


    ¡°Has the Azure Fox Clan taken another son-in-law? I heard that the one who came this time is a direct descendant of the Azure Fox Clan!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I also heard about it!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s great! It would be great if an Azure Fox could take a fancy to me.¡±


    All kinds of excited voices kept coming from the surroundings.


    ¡®Another son-in-law?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard these discussions, these four words directly popped into his mind.


    Speaking of which, he seemed to have experienced many son-in-law recruitment events.


    What kind of force was this Azure Fox Clan?


    In the next second, he finally understood why so many cultivators were gathered there.


    A hole suddenly appeared in the sky, and a woman slowly descended from it.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    The first impression this woman gave people was that she was charming!


    That¡¯s right!


    She was extremely charming, and her dress was very bold. The fabric was pitifully thin.


    1


    However, it covered all the key parts of her body, giving people a feeling of being surrounded by clouds and mist.


    Her eyes were full of flirtatious looks as if she was hinting to everyone. Her every move was full of seduction.


    Even Zhou Feng was almost captivated.


    That kind of natural seduction was simply irresistible.


    ¡®The Azure Fox Clan, huh?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly. He was not familiar with the Azure Fox Clan.


    It seemed that he would have to investigate in the future thoroughly.


    He originally thought that this matter would end just like that.


    In any case, it didn¡¯t matter to him if that woman was there to recruit a son-in-law.


    But in the next second, that woman directly looked at Zhou Feng.


    Then, with a lotus step, she slowly walked toward Zhou Feng.


    Xue Ji very formally said to Zhou Feng, ¡°Hello! Can I get to know you?¡±


    At the same time, she was carefully observing Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Is this person the genius that the ancestor spoke of?¡¯


    Xue Ji had entered the easternmost region this time to look for a husband.


    She had already broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, so she could already choose a husband.


    Dao Enlightenment realm!


    This was a powerhouse of the Azure Fox Clan that came out of the mountains. Also, her aptitude was considered the worst, which was why she had been sent there.


    The other sisters were looking for a husband in the Central Plains.


    From a certain point of view, she could be considered to have been kicked out of the Azure Fox Clan ahead of time.


    However, she didn¡¯t have many thoughts in her heart. In fact, she was even a little happy.


    Having grown up in the Azure Fox Clan, she was finally able to come to the outside world.


    She was even able to make new friends, which made Xue Ji very happy.


    As for why she recognized Zhou Feng, it was naturally because she had seen Zhou Feng¡¯s image.


    ¡®Dao Enlightenment realm!? So powerful! If this person attacks with all her might, can I escape?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change, but his heart began to be on high alert.


    A chilly aura constantly emanated from Xue Ji¡¯s body, causing Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body to tense up.


    ¡®Why did she take the initiative to talk to me? Is there some sort of conspiracy?¡¯

 Chapter 519 - Enlightment! Breakthrough?

    Zhou Feng directly used his actions to express his attitude.


    Facing Xue Ji, he remained silent and looked at her with a vigilant expression.


    ¡°This person¡­¡±


    ¡°Is it one of those lunatics again?¡±


    ¡°He looks like one of those battle fanatics indeed.¡±


    When the surrounding people saw Zhou Feng¡¯s facial expression, they all looked as if they were used to it.


    They didn¡¯t say anything sarcastic, nor did they say that they could target Zhou Feng.


    This was because there were actually many people like Zhou Feng in the easternmost region.


    Those people were all lunatics, completely devoted to cultivation.


    They often acted according to their own thoughts and didn¡¯t care about the opinions of others.


    However, these people¡¯s cultivation levels were all very terrifying, and fighting above their level was as simple as eating and drinking.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was not strange at all.


    On the contrary, many people thought that it was very normal.


    To be able to gain the favor of a female Azure Fox was not something that an ordinary person could do.


    After all, the Azure Fox Clan was one of the few factions that could enter the easternmost land.


    Under normal circumstances, one could only enter the easternmost land but could not leave.


    However, the Azure Fox Clan had reached an agreement with the Daemon League. The direct descendants of the Azure Fox Clan could freely enter and exit the easternmost land.


    ¡°Why does he look a little unfamiliar?¡±


    ¡°He came in from the outside?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! He seems to have come in from the outside.¡±


    Some people realized that Zhou Feng looked very unfamiliar.


    In that instant, many people¡¯s expressions changed, and their eyes betrayed emotions such as vigilance and wariness.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sharp senses noticed this change.


    ¡°I just want us to be friends. There¡¯s no need to be so vigilant. This is considered a greeting gift!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng did not speak, Xue Ji did not get angry. Instead, she spoke to him in a friendly manner.


    She did not have too many intentions. She was just curious about Zhou Feng and wanted to understand him.


    At the same time, she took out a fragment of scripture.


    Because of the special circumstances of the Azure Fox Clan, which caused the Azure Foxes to only be able to choose one person in their entire life, one must consider all the circumstances before picking someone.


    Aptitude was only a test condition.


    Other than that, there were many other factors.


    ¡°This is the incomplete scripture left behind by Heavenly Venerate Longevity.¡±


    Xue Ji revealed a mischievous smile, and her soul-stirring charm was slowly exuded.


    Even if all the cultivators present had extraordinary mental states, they couldn¡¯t help but be shaken by it.


    She wasn¡¯t using any charm technique¡ªher natural charm was being exuded.


    ¡®Heavenly Venerate Longevity?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed with a bright light, and he used his hand to receive this scripture.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity!


    This was a person he had only learned about after entering the easternmost region.


    Since this person was called a Heavenly Venerate, his cultivation base had already exceeded Zhou Feng¡¯s imagination.


    Moreover, the most terrifying point was that this Heavenly Venerate Longevity had been recorded since the first Human Emperor appeared.


    Until the last Human Emperor disappeared, there was still news of this person.


    No one knew how long the Heavenly Venerate Longevity had lived. They only knew that in the end, he was still unable to go against the passage of time.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity had left behind his cultivation technique, the Longevity Heavenly Scripture, before his death.


    The incomplete scripture should be the legendary Longevity Heavenly Scripture.


    This kind of greeting gift could not even be described as precious.


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Zhou Feng gave a simple word.


    After all, he wasn¡¯t some crazy person who would actually show such great sincerity.


    He had no reason to refuse. As long as the other party didn¡¯t have any ill intentions, he could still be an ordinary friend.


    After saying that, Zhou Feng left immediately.


    This wasn¡¯t the place to comprehend this incomplete scripture.


    Seeing this, Xue Ji also didn¡¯t get angry. Zhou Feng¡¯s character was already considered good enough.


    Some freaks¡¯ temperaments and personalities could be considered much worse than Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    Xue Ji could feel that she had become Zhou Feng¡¯s friend. That was enough.


    The connections of the Azure Fox Clan were slowly accumulated in this way.


    It had to be said that the Azure Fox Clan was rather strange.


    Most of their attention was placed on socializing. As for cultivation, they were waiting for others to lead them.


    ¡°Quickly go investigate!¡±


    ¡°From which family is this person? He actually received the favor of the Azure Fox Clan!¡±


    ¡°We have to find out!¡±


    Xue Ji¡¯s attitude also caused more people to pay more attention to Zhou Feng.


    In short, Zhou Feng was being targeted.


    Finally, Zhou Feng¡¯s peaceful days were over after entering the easternmost region for so long.


    ¡­


    ¡°Eternal life¡­ Reincarnation¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng carefully browsed through the incomplete scripture.


    Then, he found that there was information about reincarnation in it.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity had relied on continuous reincarnations to survive.


    The most important thing was to find his original self so that he would not be lost in reincarnation.


    This also involved information about the soul, visualization, and so on.


    It was only a fragment of the scripture, yet it contained a large amount of information.


    The AI recorded all the information and then added Zhou Feng¡¯s previous accumulation, especially the foundation he had obtained in the Sky Kingdom.


    The cultivation technique that had been stuck for a long time was actually starting to advance!


    ¡°I want to enter that special state again!¡±


    Zhou Feng constantly stimulated his Longevity bloodline.


    The longevity substances continued to leak out, instantly drawing in countless amounts of Spiritual Qi.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was standing on the ground, his eyes tightly shut, and his long black hair continuously fluttered in the wind.


    An aura that had been dormant for a long time continuously rose up.


    A bolt of lightning suddenly rang out, and a lightning dragon pierced through heaven and earth, its brilliant light shining in all directions.


    For some baffling reason, Zhou Feng once again entered the state of enlightenment.


    That¡¯s right! It was the state of enlightenment!


    Just like that, he entered the state of enlightenment out of nowhere.


    Even Zhou Feng himself wasn¡¯t prepared for it.


    But at that moment, his mind was extremely clear.


    Unknowingly, the incomplete scripture spontaneously burned in the wind.


    Then, terrifying Blood Qi spread out from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The power that erupted from that seemingly thin and weak body was comparable to that of a volcano eruption.


    In this state, the green lotus also appeared naturally to protect Zhou Feng.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!?¡±


    ¡°A phenomenon? Why is there a phenomenon over there?¡±


    ¡°Someone is going to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    ¡°But that¡¯s not right! Why would someone who wants to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm do it there?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people, including Xue Ji, noticed the phenomenon in the distance and were dumbfounded.


    This kind of phenomenon was too strange. They had never seen this kind of strange phenomenon in the easternmost region.


    Could it be that someone had broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm?


    But this didn¡¯t seem right!


    One wouldn¡¯t break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm in such a place.


    This was because breaking through to the Dao Enlightenment realm was a perilous decision. This realm was one of the few realms that would encounter the heavenly tribulation.


    When a cultivator comprehended the laws of the great Dao, they had to pass the test of heaven and earth.


    Only then could they touch the power of the laws.


    Therefore, before breaking through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, one needed to make a lot of preparations.


    They definitely wouldn¡¯t randomly find a place to break through.

 Chapter 520 - 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation Realm?

    In the state of enlightenment, Zhou Feng seemed to have touched upon some kind of law.


    The vitality, Blood Qi, and Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth were crazily absorbed into his body with the momentum of a whale swallowing.


    It was as if he experienced the Body Tempering realm all the way to the Dragon Transformation realm once again.


    All the longevity substances in his bloodline were released at once.


    Something that looked like plasma began to descend from the sky while endless thunderbolts struck.


    The sound of thunder resounded throughout the entire sky.


    The countless thunderbolts baptized Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    He did not understand what had happened at all, but he could smell a burning odor.


    This was similar to pork belly being roasted.


    ¡°What happened? I was struck by lightning?¡±


    Although his body had become charred black, his lifeforce had not been cut off.


    The passive Tenacious Heart was immediately triggered and took effect.


    His body had transformed!


    Under the lightning strikes, Zhou Feng¡¯s body actually began to transform slowly.


    Originally, he was only at the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm, but now he was breaking through.


    That charred black outer shell slowly fell off, revealing a crystal-like body.


    ¡°It¡¯s here!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s him? Isn¡¯t that the person from earlier?¡±


    ¡°What is he doing? Transcending the tribulation? That¡¯s not right! Isn¡¯t he at the Dragon Transformation realm? How can a Dragon Transformation cultivator transcend tribulation!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people rushed directly to the place where Zhou Feng was.


    Then, they were surprised to find that he was actually transcending the lightning tribulation!?


    That¡¯s right!


    Wasn¡¯t Zhou Feng transcending the lightning tribulation in his current appearance?


    But what was strange was that the lightning tribulation would only appear when one broke through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Why did Zhou Feng start transcending the lightning tribulation when he was at the Dragon Transformation realm?


    This didn¡¯t seem right!


    ¡°Is it because of that incomplete scripture?¡±


    When Xue Ji saw Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance, she connected it to that incomplete scripture.


    That was something left behind by Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    She had found it in a certain ruin, and after verification, it was confirmed that Heavenly Venerate Longevity had left it behind.


    Although it was valuable, it was only valuable.


    It didn¡¯t have much practical use because it was only an incomplete scripture with general information.


    At most, it could only be used as a reference.


    Because of this, Xue Ji gave this incomplete scripture to Zhou Feng as a welcome gift.


    Firstly, it was valuable enough, and secondly, its practical use was not as high as imagined.


    It was definitely an excellent greeting gift.


    However, it was precisely because of this incomplete scripture that Zhou Feng entered a state of enlightenment.


    ¡°I want more!¡±


    Zhou Feng tirelessly devoured the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    During this process, all the nearby Spiritual Qi was pulled over by him.


    Everyone saw a wonderful scene. The Spiritual Qi actually formed a sea.


    It was because the Spiritual Qi in the easternmost region was dense enough that it formed such a phenomenon.


    This Spiritual Qi constantly replenished Zhou Feng.


    And Zhou Feng¡¯s body was also constantly recovering from the lightning tribulation.


    Following that, the eyes of the surrounding spectators almost fell out because Zhou Feng¡¯s realm was rapidly rising!


    2nd Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm!


    3rd Cycle!


    4th Cycle!


    This was simply like riding a rocket.


    Zhou Feng had already broken through to the 5th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm in a short period.


    Moreover, it seemed that this momentum didn¡¯t have any intention of stopping.


    ¡°It can¡¯t be¡­ This person couldn¡¯t have directly broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, right?¡±


    At this moment, someone made an extremely terrifying guess.


    Zhou Feng wanted to cross the small realms from the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm?


    Just how monstrous must one be to be able to do this!?


    ¡°Monstrous! Truly monstrous!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m actually able to see this scene in my lifetime?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Gasps rang out continuously.


    Actually, it wasn¡¯t their fault for not being knowledgeable. They had never seen such a scene before.


    Unknowingly, there were a few more people with elegant auras.


    These people all had calm expressions, but their eyes were fixed on Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng still didn¡¯t know that he was being watched.


    He was completely immersed in a state of enlightenment.


    ¡°Longevity¡­ Longevity!¡±


    ¡°Kill! Kill!¡±


    ¡°If you want to kill me, then die first!¡±


    A crazy voice suddenly appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    Zhou Feng could feel unwillingness and anger from this voice.


    ¡®Heavenly Venerate Longevity?


    ¡®This voice belongs to Heavenly Venerate Longevity?¡¯


    He wasn¡¯t very sure, but he was certain that he had received the legacy of Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    After the incomplete scripture burned, cultivation knowledge began to pour into Zhou Feng¡¯s brain.


    ¡®Longevity Heavenly Scripture! Longevity Visualization Technique! Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised.


    How did he obtain Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance?


    Although he was puzzled, his physical body was still transforming.


    The Longevity Heavenly Scripture was a cultivation technique that specialized in extracting longevity substances.


    Now that Zhou Feng had comprehended it, he continued to extract the longevity substances in the surroundings.


    His physical body began to burn!


    This was the flame of blood, a transparent blood-colored flame that was like glass!


    It burned all the impurities in Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body, and then his flesh began to regenerate!


    Traces of seven-colored blood appeared from his blood vessels because Zhou Feng¡¯s body had almost become transparent.


    Therefore, the people beside him could clearly see this scene.


    ¡°9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm!?¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s really going to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm directly!¡±


    What was even more terrifying was that Zhou Feng had unknowingly broken through to the 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm.


    Now, he was only one step away from the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    It was also at this time that Zhou Feng slowly opened his eyes.


    The lightning tribulation in the sky was still descending unceasingly.


    However, at this time, the lightning that contained destructive intent could no longer shake his physical body.


    ¡®Longevity bloodline¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that his original Longevity bloodline had completely stabilized.


    He felt the leakage of the longevity substances again, but at this time, the amount of leakage was very little.


    ¡°This aura!? Longevity Constitution?


    ¡°Your physical body! No! What inheritance did you obtain!?


    ¡°That¡¯s the Dao Seal! Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s Dao Seal!¡±


    A man¡¯s pupils constricted slightly, and his eyes became heated.


    It turned out that there was actually a seal on Zhou Feng¡¯s forehead.


    On this side was an inheritance Dao Seal. Although it was very weak and was on the verge of collapse, this was a Dao Seal.


    ¡°What!? Dao Seal?¡±


    ¡°Longevity Constitution?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The moment these words were uttered, the gazes of many people changed.


    Even Xue Ji frowned slightly. This man in front of her seemed to be somewhat extraordinary!


    Originally, she had thought that Zhou Feng¡¯s potential was not bad and wanted to get to know him simply.


    But how could there be such a big wave all of a sudden!?


    Under such circumstances, it would not be so easy to end things.


    Zhou Feng had displayed too many things. It was simply too tempting.


    As long as one was a cultivator, there was no way to not be tempted.

 Chapter 521 - Above the Enlightenment Realm

    Dao Seal of inheritance!


    Longevity Constitution!


    Just these two items were enough to make countless people present envious.


    First of all, there was no need to mention the Dao Seal of inheritance. Those who could leave behind a Dao Seal were not ordinary people.


    Although the Dao Seal of inheritance on Zhou Feng¡¯s forehead was about to dissipate, one thing was certain¡ªhe had definitely obtained a top-tier inheritance.


    As for the Longevity Constitution, it was a very special constitution.


    People with this constitution would emit a special fragrance that would make people subconsciously salivate, and they would have the thought of eating people.


    Because if they ate the flesh of someone with the Longevity Constitution, they would be able to increase their lifespan by at least 100 years.


    1


    And people with the Longevity Constitution, even if they didn¡¯t cultivate, would be able to live safely until 10,000 years old.


    This was an extremely rare constitution. Basically, no one had ever met someone who possessed it.


    Many people had never even heard of this constitution.


    Unfortunately, among so many people, there was one who understood the Longevity Constitution.


    ¡°Live on!¡±


    The Dao Seal of inheritance on Zhou Feng¡¯s forehead slowly dissipated, and a blurry voice finally sounded in his ear.


    After inheriting Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, Zhou Feng slowly woke up.


    Then, he felt countless burning gazes staring at his body.


    At this moment, the clothes on Zhou Feng¡¯s body were almost torn, and he could only barely cover his face.


    The black hair on his head fell down, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.


    A trace of Immortal Qi was emitted from his body.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng seemed to have truly ascended to immortality. That transcendent aura caused everyone not to dare to move for a moment.


    Surprisingly, a youth stepped out of the air and stood mid-air to meet Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze.


    This youth looked extremely young and tender, and his pair of divine eyes were sparkling.


    A purple halo was constantly circulating around his body, and streaks of purple clouds fell down, making him look like a banished immortal.


    Dao Enlightenment realm!


    Such a young Dao Enlightenment cultivator!


    This youth¡¯s face looked young and tender, but he was already in the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    ¡°That¡¯s Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s Dao Seal of inheritance, right? I didn¡¯t expect Heavenly Venerate Longevity to have left behind a Dao Seal of inheritance!


    ¡°And he¡¯s been hiding it in an incomplete scripture. Azure Fox Xue Ji, does this count as you not having any Dao Seal of inheritance?¡±


    Gu Xinghuo looked at Zhou Feng, his words revealing laziness.


    Upon hearing this, everyone could not help but feel pity for Xue Ji.


    It turned out that the incomplete scripture that Xue Ji had given to Zhou Feng actually contained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s Dao Seal of inheritance.


    If they had known in advance, Xue Ji would have been able to obtain Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s Dao Seal.


    ¡°There¡¯s nothing to pity! If I didn¡¯t give that incomplete scripture away, then I¡¯d never have discovered this secret in my entire life!¡±


    Xue Ji didn¡¯t feel that it was a pity.


    If she hadn¡¯t given this incomplete scripture to Zhou Feng, she would have never found out about this secret.


    This outcome was not bad.


    From a certain point of view, Zhou Feng owed Xue Ji a huge karmic debt.


    Even if Xue Ji didn¡¯t say it, Zhou Feng should say something.


    ¡°Heavenly Venerate Longevity has more than one Dao Seals of inheritance?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was cold, and he instantly grasped a point.


    From what Gu Xinghuo said, could it be that there was more than one Dao Seals of inheritance?


    ¡°Of course! Heavenly Venerate Longevity has lived for so long, and his cultivation has long broken through to the horizon!


    ¡°I don¡¯t know how many Dao Seals of inheritance he left in his life, especially before he died!¡±


    Gu Xinghuo suddenly looked in a direction and replied to Zhou Feng.


    If it was someone else, they might only be able to leave one Dao Seal of inheritance in their lifetime.


    However, Heavenly Venerate Longevity was different.


    He had left behind countless Dao Seals of inheritance in his lifetime, and countless cultivators had risen up because of it.


    Otherwise, how did the title of Heavenly Venerate come about!?


    At the same time, there were countless powerhouses who were stronger than Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    However, no one was able to obtain the title of Heavenly Venerate.


    It was because Heavenly Venerate Longevity had left behind countless inheritances and blessed countless cultivators that all cultivators called him ¡®Heavenly Venerate¡¯.


    In the Central Plains, there was even a super force that had been established after inheriting the legacy of Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Zhou Feng suddenly changed the topic without waiting for Gu Xinghuo to finish.


    ¡°What realm comes after the Enlightenment realm?¡±


    ¡°After the Dao Enlightenment realm? It is the Ascendance realm!¡±


    The laziness in Gu Xinghuo¡¯s tone began to subside.


    ¡°How many people?¡±


    ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°Nothing?¡±


    ¡°What do you want to say?¡±


    Zhou Feng and Gu Xinghuo actually started to play charades for a time.


    This made the surrounding people somewhat confused about the situation.


    Just when everyone was not clear about the situation, Zhou Feng made his move.


    9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm! His physical body had undergone nine transformations!


    Even the lightning tribulation was unable to shake Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body.


    At that moment, the violent Blood Qi condensed into a fist.


    ¡°You dare to make a move first!?¡±


    Gu Xing Huo didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng actually to make a move directly.


    Make a move directly in the easternmost land?


    Fortunately, Gu Xing Huo was prepared beforehand, and purple light enveloped his entire body.


    He had comprehended the Dao of Starlight.


    The purple light was the protective light refined by the Purple Star Light.


    It had a trace of the great Dao¡¯s laws.


    Zhou Feng was seeking death since he attacked. A mere Dragon Transformation cultivator dared to attack a Dao Enlightenment cultivator?


    Who gave him the courage!?


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s punch seemed to be able to crush the void, and the purple light was instantly shattered.


    ¡°He¡¯s making a move?¡±


    ¡°Get out of the way!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t just stand there. The news will spread like wildfire!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The onlookers immediately dispersed.


    They didn¡¯t dare to stay where they were because this battle didn¡¯t seem to be so easy to participate in.


    The crowd didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be so stubborn. When he realized that the situation wasn¡¯t right, he immediately made a move. He didn¡¯t even give them a chance to discuss.


    If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn¡¯t have been able to be so decisive.


    But thinking about it, this seemed to be Zhou Feng¡¯s best choice.


    Since he had broken through in the wild and caused such a strange phenomenon, wasn¡¯t it obvious that he didn¡¯t have a backer?


    If such a genius had a background, he definitely wouldn¡¯t have broken through here.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s Dao Seal of inheritance and the Longevity Constitution were valid reasons to attack Zhou Feng.


    In order to avoid accidents, many people wanted to strike first.


    After all, there was still the righteous faction in the Daemon League.


    That¡¯s right!


    The Daemon League that controlled the easternmost region was actually divided into several factions.


    One of the factions was formed by the original righteous faction.


    This faction belonged to a minority. When they encountered some talented vagabond cultivators, they would try their best to rope them in.


    Moreover, they would use the same ideals and aspirations to assimilate these vagabond geniuses.


    For example, for a vagabond cultivator like Zhou Feng, who didn¡¯t have the backing of a faction, these people wouldn¡¯t choose to kill people and snatch the inheritance.


    Instead, they would try their best to rope them in, even though this sounded a little ridiculous.


    However, there were quite a number of such people in the Daemon League.


    Although these people were considered a minority in the entire Daemon League, they were surprisingly united. Every one of them considered each other as comrades.


    The cohesiveness was terrifying. The previous Demon League leader had come from that group of people.


    These people were also the core of the easternmost land.


    These people had contributed greatly to the establishment of the easternmost spiritual land.


    It was a pity, though, as that ancient spark belonged to the majority.

 Chapter 522 - Dao Enlightenment Realm! Heavenly Punishment?

    Zhou Feng shattered Gu Xinghuo¡¯s protective starlight with a punch.


    His eyes grew more and more indifferent as the green lotus slowly unfurled.


    Countless living beings swarmed over, all rushing toward his physical body.


    At that moment, the surrounding trees seemed to wither and die instantly.


    Even the earth began to dry and crack as Zhou Feng drew all the vitality in this area.


    ¡°The divine ability of Heavenly Venerate Longevity!?¡±


    Gu Xingguang revealed a surprised expression.


    He didn¡¯t expect that his protective starlight fist would be shattered.


    Moreover, it looked like the surrounding environment¡¯s vitality was rapidly dissipating.


    It really made people shudder.


    Zhou Feng was clearly a 9th Cycle Dragon Transformation cultivator, but Gu Xinghuo seemed to be facing a cultivator of the same realm.


    He was a Dao Enlightenment cultivator, an existence that directly comprehended the Dao of Starlight!


    In an instant, the boundless starlight began to descend.


    Gu Xinghuo took out a long sword, which was emitting bright starlight.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were very calm.


    ¡®Fate Wheel¡­ Is this the beginning of longevity?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng seemed to have seen through the river of time.


    He directly comprehended the great Dao of Longevity, and his body continuously emitted the light of enlightenment.


    That¡¯s right!


    He was currently trying to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm!


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s Dao Seal of inheritance contained a trace of the great Dao of Longevity¡¯s laws.


    This was equivalent to stepping into the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Dao Enlightenment realm!


    From the name, one could tell what the Dao Enlightenment realm was.


    As long as one could comprehend a trace of the great Dao¡¯s laws, one could step into this realm.


    This was also known as the final realm of mortals.


    This was because the next realm was equivalent to breaking away from the status of a mortal.


    After comprehending the Dao, one would ascend!


    When one could completely comprehend a single law of the great Dao, one would be qualified to ascend to immortality.


    Ascension was the process of being baptized by the laws of the great Dao.


    ¡°Crazy!? Comprehend the Dao? You want to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    When Gu Xinghuo saw the light of enlightenment, he looked shocked.


    Didn¡¯t Zhou Feng just break through from the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm to the 9th Cycle?


    He wanted to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm now?


    From the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm to the Dao Enlightenment realm, he could break through in one day?


    If Zhou Feng could succeed, then his talent was definitely not inferior to his.


    Gu Xinghuo was actually a monster. He had been nourished by starlight since he was young.


    He had started cultivating when he was 3 years old and cultivated to the Dragon Transformation realm in four years.


    He had comprehended the Dao in the last ten years and directly broke through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    When he broke through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, he was only 17 years old.


    This kind of monstrous prodigy had taken ten years to reach the threshold of the Dao Enlightenment realm from the Dragon Transformation realm.


    But now, Zhou Feng wanted to reach the sky in one step. This was more or less looking down on the Dao Enlightenment realm!


    ¡°What!? He wants to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s impossible!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Upon hearing Gu Xinghuo¡¯s words, many people were also shocked.


    No one had ever heard of someone who could break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm in a single day.


    Gu Xinghuo¡¯s body was covered in starlight as he walked in the air.


    The Star Longsword in his hand slashed fiercely!


    This simple slash formed a pillar of light that reached the heavens, cutting Zhou Feng¡¯s body into two halves.


    That¡¯s right! It was two halves!


    But in the next second, Zhou Feng¡¯s body quickly healed.


    And there wasn¡¯t a single trace left behind.


    ¡®Fate Wheel! Longevity of the body¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes emitted a certain light.


    The great Dao of Longevity!


    This was a path opened up by Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    What he pursued was the longevity of the body! Longevity of the soul! And the last eternal life.


    And if he wanted his physical body to live forever, the first thing he needed was to build his own Fate Wheel.


    The so-called Fate Wheel was to gather all the vitality of his physical body together.


    It would form something similar to a growth ring, and it would intertwine in circles.


    As long as the Fate Wheel was not destroyed, then his physical body would be immortal.


    This instance was Zhou Feng¡¯s use of the Fate Wheel. The vitality of his physical body was locked and turned into a dead object.


    Then, it was instantly filled with vitality. The two halves of his physical body grew back together.


    ¡®So enlightenment can also be considered cultivation! The passive Cultivation Simulation can actually be triggered!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was pleasantly surprised to find that the passive Cultivation Simulation could be triggered simultaneously when he was comprehending the Dao.


    Cultivation Simulation: You will undergo another simulated cultivation every time you cultivate.


    And you will obtain the corresponding cultivation experience.


    This was equivalent to Zhou Feng comprehending the Dao one more time.


    This one more time allowed him to grasp a sliver of the great Dao of Longevity¡¯s law.


    ¡®Dao Enlightenment realm! Break!¡¯


    A sliver of the great Dao¡¯s law began to temper Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    And his soul was also being baptized by the great Dao¡¯s law.


    ¡°It succeeded? That¡¯s impossible!¡±


    Gu Xinghuo felt an aura that belonged exclusively to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    He could not believe it. How could he succeed?


    ¡®If you successfully break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, what should I do?¡¯


    Gu Xinghuo felt that Zhou Feng was difficult to deal with.


    Now that Zhou Feng was about to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, how could he fight?


    ¡°The¡­ Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    ¡°He succeeded?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s that simple? The Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    Everyone was shocked by Zhou Feng¡¯s breakthrough into the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Some people¡¯s voices began to tremble, while more people were silent.


    What kind of monster did they witness?


    From the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm all the way to the 9th Cycle, and then the Dao Enlightenment realm!?


    Perhaps this was a monster!


    Suddenly, thunder sounded, and the sky became dark.


    Blood-colored thunderbolts flashed in the dark clouds.


    ¡°Heavenly tribulation? No! This is heavenly punishment!?¡±


    ¡°Heavenly punishment? What great Dao did he comprehend?¡±


    ¡°Why did he attract heavenly punishment? It can¡¯t be the great Dao of Longevity, right?¡±


    The change in the sky shook everyone¡¯s hearts once again.


    Why did it happen again?


    In this situation, it was obvious that Zhou Feng had attracted heavenly punishment.


    And under what circumstances could he trigger heavenly punishment?


    Only those who had comprehended the laws of the great Dao that they should not have had the right to trigger the wrath of heaven.


    Unfortunately, the great Dao of Longevity was one that must not be comprehended.


    Once someone relied on comprehending the laws of the great Dao to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, they would attract the wrath of heaven.


    ¡°There¡¯s actually someone in this world who can comprehend the great Dao of Longevity?¡±


    ¡°I thought that person had comprehended another great Dao!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    It had been many years since anyone had comprehended the great Dao of Longevity.


    There were actually quite a few great Daos that could trigger the wrath of heaven.


    For example, if one comprehended the great Dao of Time and Space and entered the Dao Enlightenment realm after comprehending these two great Daos, they would also trigger the wrath of heaven.


    It was said that those who could be called evildoers in the Central Plains had to trigger the wrath of heaven, at least when they were in the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Without the approval of the wrath of heaven, they could not be considered freaks in the Central Plains and could only be considered geniuses.


    However, the great Dao of Longevity was one that no one in the Central Plains had comprehended.


    Now that Zhou Feng had comprehended it, this kind of spiritual impact was indescribable to others.


    ¡°Danger!¡±


    Gu Xinghuo felt goosebumps all over his body, and he immediately retreated.


    He did not dare to stay where he was. The heavenly punishment did not differentiate between people.


    If he continued to stay there, he would also have to bear the wrath of heaven.


    The blood-red lightning struck Zhou Feng¡¯s body before he could react, and countless lightning-like bloody scars appeared.

 Chapter 523 - Self

    The blood-red lightning struck Zhou Feng¡¯s body, causing all sorts of bloody wounds.


    It didn¡¯t look like he had been struck by lightning at all. Instead, it looked like a sharp weapon had slashed him.


    ¡®The longevity substances have been taken away?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that some of his body¡¯s longevity substances had been taken away.


    The blood-red lightning seemed to be targeting him on purpose.


    However, this could not stop him from breaking through.


    The passive Tenacious Heart was triggered, and the bloody marks on his body continued to recover.


    Moreover, the surrounding Spiritual Qi gathered toward Zhou Feng.


    And so, the following scene kept replaying itself.


    The blood-red lightning in the sky continued to fall, and all kinds of bloody marks appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    However, they would recover in the next second.


    The heavenly punishment was not counted in being in battle mode, so the passive Tenacious Heart was continuously triggered.


    2


    Originally, Zhou Feng should have had a hard time resisting the heavenly tribulation.


    But in reality, it was effortless.


    ¡°How is this possible!¡±


    ¡°Why? How can this person be able to resist the heavenly tribulation so easily?¡±


    ¡°Not good! A gap is about to be opened in the Spirit Reinforcement Formation!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After seeing this scene, even though the people present had already suffered a lot of shocks, they still revealed an expression of disbelief.


    No one, no cultivator, had ever been able to withstand the wrath of heaven so easily.


    This kind of physical recovery ability was a little unreasonable!


    This was because the blood-colored lightning that descended contained traces of heavenly might.


    It could prevent the recovery of the physical body, even if one was a 9th Cycle Dragon Transformation cultivator.


    The body had undergone nine transformations, and when faced with the heavenly tribulation, it was still possible that it would not be able to withstand it.


    Moreover, the body had to undergo nine transformations at this realm.


    All of this was in order to be able to withstand the heavenly tribulation that descended from the heavens when one broke through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    However, Zhou Feng completely ignored the heavenly might contained within the blood-colored lightning.


    The passive Perfect Transformation directly transformed the wisps of heavenly might into pure Spiritual Qi, and the passive Tenacious Heart was working its magic non-stop.


    4


    These two passives were simply the perfect combo, helping Zhou Feng instantly deal with the heavenly punishment.


    ¡°We¡¯re going to witness history!¡±


    ¡°T-This person has comprehended the great Dao of Longevity. A piece of flesh on this person¡¯s body is equivalent to a spirit pill that can extend one¡¯s life!¡±


    ¡°No way! We must invite an Ascendant out. An ordinary Dao Enlightenment cultivator won¡¯t be able to suppress this person at all!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Gu Xinghuo and the others felt like they were about to witness a historical moment.


    A person had crossed from the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm to the Dao Enlightenment realm within a short day.


    The entire process was almost without any hindrance, and he had smoothly crossed into The Dao Enlightenment realm.


    He was still comprehending the great Dao of Longevity.


    But on the other hand, Zhou Feng¡¯s situation would become even more dangerous.


    He had broken through in the easternmost region in front of everyone¡¯s eyes.


    This was equivalent to being exposed to the sun.


    A Dao Enlightenment cultivator comprehending the great Dao of Longevity was just a piece of living longevity meat in the eyes of many cultivators of the same realm.


    As long as one took a bite, their lifespan would be extended a little.


    The Great Dao of Longevity was always lonely and perilous.


    Because toward the end of cultivation, even a drop of Zhou Feng¡¯s blood would be a panacea.


    No one could resist the temptation to extend their lifespan.


    Or perhaps, when the people you were familiar with grew old one by one, this kind of psychological blow was also very serious.


    Why did no one successfully walk the path of immortality?


    It was because the conditions were too harsh. The physical body and soul needed to be in a terrifying state in order to live forever.


    In fact, Heavenly Venerate Longevity could have continued to live.


    But he had chosen to give up because he had experienced too much and had even witnessed countless historical events with his own eyes.


    Even his soul began to wear out, and all his memories were lost.


    At that point, Heavenly Venerate Longevity had suddenly felt that it was really meaningless to continue living.


    He finally collapsed. He clearly only needed to hold on for a while longer.


    However, he could not hold on any longer.


    The blood-colored thunderclouds slowly dissipated.


    After experiencing the baptism of the heavenly punishment, Zhou Feng had undoubtedly broken through to the Enlightenment realm.


    The laws of the great Dao attacked his soul and body.


    ¡®Is this the Dao Enlightenment realm?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt as if heaven and the earth were clear. It was as if he could see through everything in the world.


    The computational ability of the AI also soared crazily.


    There were also some minor changes that he did not have the time to comprehend.


    Unfortunately, the crisis was not over yet!


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect there to be such a talent, but unfortunately¡­¡±


    A deep voice instantly caused the surrounding temperature to drop by a few degrees.


    An Ascendant!


    Zhou Feng had just broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm and was about to face an Ascendant.


    Compared to a Dao Enlightenment cultivator, an Ascendant had already comprehended the laws of a great Dao.


    Their entire bodies entered a special state, and they were prepared to ascend to immortality at any time.


    This kind of person¡¯s battle prowess was unfathomable!


    A middle-aged man covered in blood and with a machete in hand appeared.


    The simple-looking machete shook slightly.


    The killing intent was as cold as winter, and the entire world was bone-chilling. At the same time, it was as if tens of millions of living beings were struggling, and blood formed a sea.


    The great Dao of Slaughter!


    This Ascendant actually pursued the great Dao of Slaughter.


    Tu Jun stared at Zhou Feng indifferently.


    ¡®If this person is refined into a pill, it should be able to increase my lifespan by 500 years!


    ¡®In this way, my time will be even ampler!¡¯


    In his opinion, Zhou Feng was already food on the plate and could no longer escape from his palm.


    Therefore, Tu Jun had already thought of a way to deal with Zhou Feng in his heart.


    Refining him as a pill was the simplest method.


    Not only could it save him trouble, but it was also the most direct method.


    If he could increase his lifespan by 500 years, then Tu Jun felt that he had a great chance of stepping into a higher realm.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng raised his head slightly and glanced at Tu Jun..


    Following that, Xue Ji heard a voice.


    ¡®Go further away!¡¯


    After hearing this voice, Xue Ji¡¯s eyes, filled with charm, blinked.


    She looked at Zhou Feng again.


    Then, she crushed a life-saving talisman, and the surrounding space began to distort.


    This was the spatial teleportation talisman the Azure Fox Ancestor had given to Xue Ji. As long as she crushed it, she would be able to escape and be teleported back to the Azure Fox Clan.


    When Xue Ji heard Zhou Feng¡¯s words, she instantly realized that something big was about to happen.


    Hence, she crushed the spatial teleportation talisman without even thinking.


    ¡°See you next time!¡±


    1


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression was still calm as he left a sentence for Tu Jun.


    1


    ¡°You want to self-destruct? Hmph! That¡¯s impossible!¡±


    Tu Jun immediately saw through Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.


    However, he was already prepared for this. He was confident that he could stop Zhou Feng from self-destructing.


    However, in the next second, the violent Spiritual Qi directly exploded.


    ¡°Run! Is this person crazy?¡±


    ¡°He wants to self-destruct!?¡±


    ¡°AH!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Gu Xinghuo and the others¡¯ expressions suddenly changed. They had never thought that Zhou Feng would choose to self-destruct.


    Moreover, he had just broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm and was in high spirits, yet he chose to self-destruct.


    Don¡¯t you need to consider this?


    How could you self-destruct!?


    2

 Chapter 524 - Rebirth!

    Some people might not believe it, but Zhou Feng had researched how to self-destruct to cause the greatest damage possible.


    There were a lot of techniques for self-destructing.


    He could be sure that other people¡¯s self-destruction methods were definitely not as good as his.


    Because Zhou Feng had made the AI simulate how to self-destruct countless times.


    This was all because he wanted to prepare more cards for himself.


    There was no other way!


    Zhou Feng cultivated alone, so having more cards meant his chances of survival increased.


    Especially after obtaining the passive Nirvana Rebirth, he began to have devious thoughts.


    1


    This was an extra life compared to normal people. If necessary, he could completely perish with his enemy.


    When the others died, Zhou Feng could be resurrected.


    Thus, the power of Zhou Feng¡¯s self-explosion instantly razed the nearby area to the ground.


    Heaven and earth revolted, and the revolting Spiritual Qi seemed to be able to drown the heavens instantly.


    None of the people who had gathered here were spared. Even the various shining life-saving talismans could not resist this kind of explosion.


    In the end, Gu Xinghuo could only let out a desperate roar.


    ¡°No!¡±


    He had never thought that he would die here.


    ¡®A madman! This is a real madman!


    ¡®Why would I provoke such a person if I had nothing to do?


    ¡®If I could do it all over again, I would never provoke him.¡¯


    At such a level of cultivation, it could be said that he was on a completely different level from those mediocre mortals.


    To be honest, not only Gu Xinghuo, even Tu Jun could not understand why Zhou Feng was so resolute.


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! This person¡¯s soul has disappeared! This person has a secret rebirth technique!¡±


    Tu Jun¡¯s expression was extremely ugly.


    He did not sense Zhou Feng¡¯s soul aura, which meant that Zhou Feng¡¯s soul had not dissipated.


    Instead, he used the power of self-destruction to leave the easternmost region.


    Originally, a super formation covered the sky and the earth, sealing everything.


    Even a Dao Enlightenment cultivator might not be able to leave immediately, but now, a big hole had been opened in the formation.


    Originally, many places had been torn apart because of the heavenly punishment. Now, it was because of Zhou Feng¡¯s self-destruction.


    A huge hole was opened, and at this time, a huge amount of Spiritual Qi was leaking out crazily.


    If he didn¡¯t deal with it quickly, it would have a terrible impact on the easternmost region.


    ¡°I was influenced by greed?¡±


    Tu Jun¡¯s mind cleared up a little, and regret began to spread.


    An Ascendant like him was actually controlled by greed.


    Would the result have been different if he hadn¡¯t been so crazy and resolute?


    After realizing that he had no way out, Zhou Feng chose to self-destruct and be reborn.


    Although Zhou Feng had the secret art of rebirth, any secret art that Tu Jun knew had huge side effects.


    Under normal circumstances, there wouldn¡¯t be any cultivators who could be reborn at will.


    This was because not only would it waste a lot of time, but it would also affect the subsequent breakthroughs.


    ¡°This is troublesome! I even offended a monster this time! But why did the greed in my heart suddenly arise just now?¡±


    Tu Jun still could not understand how he was affected by greed.


    But it was too late to say anything now. He could only try his best to remedy it.


    The spreading regret only lasted for a very short period. Then, Tu Jun returned to his expressionless face.


    Tu Jun did not know that all of this was the longevity substances¡¯ effect.


    After transcending the heavenly punishment, Zhou Feng had gathered countless longevity substances.


    Longevity substances could stir up one¡¯s most primitive impulses. To put it simply, they could easily lower one¡¯s intelligence.


    It was also because of this reason that Tu Jun, an Ascendant, was affected.


    In an underground area outside the easternmost land¡­


    An abandoned Spiritual Vein was buried there, and scattered Spirit Stones were embedded in the wall.


    A lump of flesh and blood was beating non-stop.


    And the beating speed was getting faster and faster until a purple light flew into the mass of flesh and blood.


    This was the Nirvana Seed that Zhou Feng had left behind in advance.


    Before entering the easternmost land, Zhou Feng had made a divination using Hexadirectional Calculation.


    He found that there was a great danger, so he had found a suitable place and used his own flesh and blood to create a Nirvana Seed for the sake of safety.


    Once he realized something was wrong, he would immediately self-destruct and be reborn here.


    Originally, this was just a safety net. He didn¡¯t think it would actually be used now.


    Also, Zhou Feng had it in his plans to die once. This was because he found that no matter how he transformed, his original physical potential was still a little lacking.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng wanted to use passive Nirvana Rebirth to create a new physical body.


    The potential of a newly created body was definitely more terrifying than the previous one.


    1


    Now was the perfect time to escape from the easternmost region and remodel his body simultaneously.


    ¡°Success!¡±


    That mass of flesh and blood grew into a perfect body in just a minute.


    The passive Nirvana Seed¡¯s weakness period immediately took effect. Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was very fragile without the protection of a body.


    ¡°Is this the feeling of coming back from the dead?¡±


    As Zhou Feng slowly familiarized himself with this new physical body, he recalled the feeling of being reborn.


    This was a very wonderful feeling.


    From losing his physical body to being reborn, especially from a lump of flesh and blood to a physical body, this seemed to contain endless principles.


    It gave Zhou Feng countless new insights.


    At that moment, his understanding of the great Dao of Longevity became even deeper.


    ¡°I really have to cultivate from scratch this time!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was delicate now. Even though he lost his cultivation, Zhou Feng was not depressed.


    Instead, he felt a kind of hope.


    When he started cultivating, many places were not perfect, especially in the early stages.


    Although Zhou Feng had tried his best to remedy his shortcomings later, some hidden dangers remained.


    Now that he could finally start over, wasn¡¯t this equivalent to an all-rounded rebirth?


    With the experience of his predecessor, Zhou Feng felt that he could make himself perfect by starting from zero again.


    ¡°First is the Body Tempering realm!¡±


    Zhou Feng began to mobilize the power of his bloodline, continuously absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    This time, his body-tempering technique was not the trash from the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Instead, it was the Longevity Body-Tempering Art that was derived from the Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, the Emperor Coiling Scripture, and countless body-tempering techniques.


    This was also the limit that the AI could deduce.


    Zhou Feng could absorb longevity substances from the Body Tempering realm.


    This was because this body was formed from a piece of flesh that contained longevity substances.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s body already contained the pure Longevity bloodline.


    The Longevity Body-Tempering Art had a natural absorption function for longevity substances, and it could also reduce the loss of longevity substances to the greatest extent possible.


    ¡°Fortunately, I left quite a lot of resources before, or else it would be a bit troublesome!¡±


    Zhou Feng picked up a storage ring and took out all the Spirit Stones inside.


    With his self-destruction, all the storage rings on his body were gone.


    Besides the green lotus bound to his soul, everything else was lost.


    This kind of loss was still okay. It was not a serious problem.

 Chapter 525 - Not Afraid of His Revenge!

    When Zhou Feng first started cultivating, he lacked guidance and experience.


    Therefore, his foundation was not very solid.


    He was able to continue fighting beyond his level because of his passive skills.


    Now, he had the opportunity to start over. This opportunity was too rare.


    ¡°Rebirth is not the passive Nirvana Rebirth¡¯s effect!¡±


    The passive Nirvana Rebirth was equivalent to an additional opportunity to cultivate again.


    Now, with the help of the AI, he could completely temper his body and always maintain a limit state.


    ¡°Perfect!¡±


    The feeling of Spiritual Qi shuttling through his body was too great.


    At the Azure Fox Clan¡­


    /


    ¡°Tell me, why did you come back? Did you not choose anyone?¡±


    The Azure Fox Ancestor glanced at Xue Ji below, his tone carrying a hint of laziness.


    He was extremely curious why Xue Ji suddenly used the teleportation talisman.


    Logically speaking, there was no reason for Xue Ji to use such a precious life-saving item.


    ¡°No! I¡¯ve chosen someone! And I like this person very much!¡±


    Xue Ji thought of Zhou Feng¡¯s unperturbed face.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    When the Azure Fox Ancestor heard this, his interest was immediately piqued.


    Although Xue Ji was the weakest direct descendant in the Azure Fox Clan, her standards were not low either. She had even seen some of the monsters of the Central Plains.


    Normally speaking, there were no geniuses in the Eastern Land that Xue Ji would pick.


    The Azure Fox Ancestor did not think much of the people of the Eastern Land.


    In the Azure Fox Ancestor¡¯s view, the so-called Spirit Filling Convention was just an escape.


    Others might not know what Spirit Filling Convention¡¯s goal was, but the Azure Fox Ancestor was very clear.


    This was a rotten idea that the people of the Eastern Land had come up with in order to resist the Central Plains.


    They kept gathering all the Spiritual Veins, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures in the Eastern Land in one place.


    They even didn¡¯t hesitate to rebuild the land and gather all the Spiritual Veins together.


    The ordinary cultivators in the easternmost region might only know that the goal of the higher-ups of the Daemon League was reclamation, but only a small number of people knew that the land used for reclamation was land formed from Spiritual Veins.


    This was man-made.


    When the time was right, the man-made land would leave the continent. It would turn into a spirit island and float toward the chaotic sea in the east.


    From the beginning to the end, the higher-ups of the Daemon League had been trying to avoid the encroachment of the Central Plains.


    As for the only area that could resist the Central Plains?


    It was enough to say that the Central Plains was a place where 90% of the geniuses in the world gathered. No place could compare to it.


    Because of this, the Azure Fox Ancestor was also very interested in the person that Xue Ji had taken a fancy.


    ¡°Tell me! Who did you take a fancy to?¡±


    ¡°It was that person! This person actually chose to self-destruct in the easternmost region! And before self-destructing, he even specially reminded me!¡±


    A smile hung on the corner of Xue Ji¡¯s mouth. For a moment, the entire space seemed to become bright and beautiful.


    That special charm did not have a hint of dust.


    Instead, it had a sweet feeling.


    ¡®Self-destructed!? Reminded you?¡¯


    The Azure Fox Ancestor was confused for a moment.


    ¡®What on earth happened?


    ¡®Something big had happened in the easternmost region?¡¯


    ¡°Self-destruct? Even if this person has a rebirth technique, rebirth has very serious side effects!


    ¡°Moreover, after rebirth, it will take quite some time for him to recover to his original cultivation!¡±


    A gentle voice suddenly sounded.


    ¡°Hmph! There¡¯s no need for Sister to care. You should think of a way to become the concubine of the Prince of Zhongzhou!¡±


    After hearing this voice, Xue Ji¡¯s expression immediately turned cold.


    She left an extremely offensive sentence, turned around, and departed.


    The Azure Fox Ancestor had no way to resolve the enmity between the two.


    After all, Xue Ji was about to leave the Azure Fox Clan and become independent.


    Furthermore, the palms and backs of her hands were made of flesh. As the ancestor, he would not side with either of them.


    ¡°Sister, are you getting anxious so quickly? I am only trying to advise you, Sister. If you choose the wrong person, you will regret your choice for the rest of your life!¡±


    The gentle voice remained calm in the face of such offensive words. She even mocked her.


    The competition within the Azure Fox Clan was also very intense.


    Because of the Azure Fox Clan¡¯s lifestyle, they did not compete in terms of their own cultivation.


    They competed in terms of dao companions. Whoever¡¯s dao companion was stronger would have more face.


    Once they chose the wrong person, they would inevitably be mocked and ridiculed when they returned to the ancestral land every year.


    This should be one of the few entertainment contents for the Azure Fox Clan.


    ¡®The person Xue Ji acknowledged shouldn¡¯t be that simple!¡¯


    The Azure Fox Ancestor had been pondering in his heart.


    Although Xue Ji¡¯s bloodline was not that pure, she was still a proud and arrogant person.


    She would not choose a person for no reason. There must be a reason behind this.


    It seemed that he had to start from the easternmost region.


    Compared to the tranquility of the Azure Fox Clan, the easternmost region was very lively.


    After all, this was the first time such a thing had happened in the easternmost region.


    A monstrous cultivator had broken through from the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm to the 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm under the watchful eyes of everyone.


    This was not only that¡ªhe had even broken through consecutively.


    He had comprehended the Dao on the spot and successfully stepped into the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Moreover, it seemed that he had comprehended the great Dao of Longevity, which directly attracted heaven¡¯s wrath.


    At first, they had been under the impression that Zhou Feng would not be able to withstand the heavenly punishment.


    However, they had not expected that he not only managed to withstand the heavenly punishment, but he also instantly self-destructed after withstanding it.


    He only left behind a message that they would see him next time.


    If it were not for the fact that an Ascendant had verified it, no one would have chosen to believe it.


    This was really too ridiculous! It was simply too f*cking ridiculous!


    ¡°Vicious! What a vicious person!¡±


    1


    ¡°He just broke through to the Dao Enlightenment realm. In the face of danger, he would rather self-destruct rather than beg for mercy!¡±


    ¡°Even if I had the means to reincarnate, I would probably struggle first.¡±


    ¡°Too ruthless!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Countless people sighed at Zhou Feng¡¯s ruthlessness.


    Tu Jun, on the other hand, had encountered many responsibilities. If he had not pressed him too hard, it was very likely that the easternmost region would have one more Ascendant.


    Or perhaps, Zhou Feng would not even have the chance to self-destruct.


    In reality, if Tu Jun had not wanted to monopolize everything¡ªhe would have secretly contacted the other Ascendants.


    If they attacked together and borrowed the power of the formation, Zhou Feng probably would not even have the chance to self-destruct.


    A Dao Enlightenment cultivator who had successfully comprehended the great Dao of Longevity was a true walking ancient medicine. Every drop of blood and every piece of meat was a great tonic!


    But it was too late to say anything now.


    They could only try their best to find traces of Zhou Feng and make up for it.


    As for whether Zhou Feng would come back to cause trouble, the people of the easternmost region were not really worried.


    Firstly, after rebirth, he would need quite a bit of time to recover.


    Secondly, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have the strength. So what if he recovered to the Dao Enlightenment realm?


    There were more than one Ascendants in the easternmost region. A mere Dao Enlightenment cultivator was nothing at all.


    Moreover, those who comprehended the great Dao of Longevity were only good at surviving. In terms of combat, they were still quite lacking.


    2


    Therefore, the easternmost region did not care that Zhou Feng would return to take revenge.


    2


    It was just a pity that Zhou Feng actually escaped.


    From this, one could see just how difficult it was to pursue the great Dao of Longevity.


    Those cultivators were destined to become walking medicines in the eyes of countless cultivators.

 Chapter 526 - New Passive: Perfect Fusion

    Because of the passive Nirvana Rebirth, there were no side effects with Zhou Feng¡¯s rebirth.


    On the contrary, because the Nirvana Seed was cultivated from the core of his flesh and blood, this allowed his physical body to possess even more terrifying qualities.


    This physical body was even more adaptable to longevity substances.


    The passive Nirvana Rebirth was no longer a simple rebirth but a new choice.


    Wasn¡¯t this kind of undamaged rebirth equivalent to a cleansing point?


    Zhou Feng had taken many forks in his path of cultivation, but he could start over now.


    Of course, after rebirth, there would be a half-month period of weakness. In his eyes, this wasn¡¯t a side effect at all.


    In any case, as long as he turtled himself for half a month, the period of weakness would disappear.


    Wasn¡¯t this the same as not having any side effects?


    ¡°Unfortunately, the cooldown time is a little long. It will take 99 years to cool down again¡­¡±


    /


    Zhou Feng was kind of dissatisfied ¦Á¦Ò the cooldown time was 99 whole years..


    Although compared to rebirth these 99 years weren¡¯t worth mentioning, people were always greedy! They always longed for something better.


    ¡°Body Tempering! The three sub-realms of Qi Refinement! Next is the Soul Altar realm¡­¡±


    After the Body Tempering realm, the three sub-realms of the Qi Refinement realm.


    After Zhou Feng was reborn and the weakening period was over, he broke through the Body Tempering and Qi Refinement realms and reached the most crucial step, the Soul Altar realm.


    The Soul Altar realm was something that he had been brooding over for a long time.


    Because he really didn¡¯t meet the conditions back then, he had only broken through in a hurry and entered the Purple Mansion realm.


    But now, he could finally make up for it!


    He wanted to condense a top-class Grade-1 Soul Altar from the start!


    ¡°Visualization technique! I now have it too!¡±


    Zhou Feng could be considered to have the most compatible cultivation technique.


    All of this was thanks to Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, which included a visualization technique.


    This was a visualization technique for visualizing one¡¯s own Fate Wheel.


    As long as one could successfully condense a Fate Wheel and gather all the longevity substance, they would be able to visualize directly.


    With the help of the AI, Zhou Feng also combined the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s visualization technique.


    He optimized the visualization technique that was most suitable for himself.


    ¡°Then, let¡¯s begin!¡±


    He sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes tightly shut.


    In an instant, he entered a certain space.


    In this space, a broken gear was rotating continuously.


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s Fate Wheel. All of his vitality and longevity substances had been condensed here.


    As long as his Fate Wheel was formed, it would be able to lock all of his vitality and longevity substances.


    His lifespan was naturally longer than that of an ordinary cultivator.


    Moreover, as long as his Fate Wheel was not destroyed, his physical body could be reborn at any time and place.


    The physical body would not be destroyed! The soul would not be destroyed!


    These were the two goals that Heavenly Venerate Longevity had been pursuing all along.


    However, even if he completed these two goals, he would not be able to achieve true immortality.


    If he wanted to achieve immortality, he would still have to face a very serious problem.


    That was the problem of wear and tear!


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity, who had experienced countless reincarnations, had encountered terrifying wear and tear in the later stages.


    This kind of wear and tear was irreversible and unstoppable.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity had tried all means, but in the end, he was unable to reverse the wear and tear.


    His memories began to fade bit by bit, and his soul began to age.


    No matter how many times his physical body was reconstructed, after a day, his physical body would always turn rotten.


    Under this kind of torture, Heavenly Venerate Longevity chose to commit suicide.


    Even if he could continue to live for a long time, he still chose to commit suicide.


    Saying these things might be a bit distant to Zhou Feng.


    At the moment, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to consider these things at all.


    ¡°Soul Altar realm!¡±


    Zhou Feng easily broke through to the Soul Altar realm.


    His soul power also began to soar because of the first time he visualized the Fate Wheel.


    This time, he cultivated again, and every step he took had already reached his limit.


    Purple Mansion realm!


    His Purple Mansion was opening!


    Divine Ability realm! Divine power flooded his entire body.


    It was like he was riding a rocket at his cultivation speed.


    After all, his realm was still there. At present, he had only recovered to his original realm.


    Thus, his speed was naturally very fast, not to mention that Zhou Feng¡¯s current body was no longer the same as his original body.


    After breaking through to the Divine Ability realm, the first thing he did was to unlock his innate divine ability, Longevity!


    He activated the longevity substances in his bloodline and gathered them into his Fate Wheel.


    He also controlled all the vitality in his body.


    ¡°Then, it¡¯s the Dragon Transformation realm!¡±


    Although Zhou Feng easily broke through to the Divine Ability realm, his speed slowed down.


    This was because the Dragon Transformation realm required numerous resources to transform his physical body.


    Not to mention that his physical body was freakish now, but his aptitude was even more terrifying. Therefore, the cultivation resources he needed also increased crazily.


    At the Dragon Transformation realm, the better one¡¯s aptitude was, the longer it would take for one to make a breakthrough.


    After all, this was also considered an accumulation realm. The more one accumulated at the Dragon Transformation realm, the easier it would be for one to break through.


    Breaking through to the Dao Enlightenment realm would become smoother as well.


    At that time, Zhou Feng had only been able to break through nine times in an instant because he had received the legacy of Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Coupled with the terrifying Spiritual Qi content in the easternmost region, he was able to transform his body nine times in an instant.


    If he were to cultivate normally, it would take a long time.


    ¡°It¡¯s about time¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was no longer in such a hurry to recover to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    It was time to settle the score.


    He had not forgotten about this score in the easternmost region.


    He had actually wasted a chance to be reborn. Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to killing him once?


    Moreover, it wasn¡¯t right for the easternmost region to bury so many Spiritual Veins, was it?


    As such, the easternmost region would provide the resources for the transformation of a Dragon Transformation physical body.


    ¡°The new passive skill should be able to be drawn!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly recalled that he had brought quite a number of people with him when he self-destructed.


    The passive Human Slayer¡¯s stacks had also increased considerably.


    The progress bar should be full.


    Sure enough, he could draw a new passive skill.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Perfect Fusion: When the dragon and the phoenix cultivate, you can achieve the perfect state of Yin and Yang. The effect of dual cultivation will be increased by 200%.


    1


    (The effect will be effective once per partner.)


    1


    When he saw this passive skill, Zhou Feng sucked in a breath of cold air and frowned.


    ¡®This passive skill¡­ The effect of dual cultivation increased by 200%?¡¯


    Although this effect was limited to one person per time, Zhou Feng himself was not affected.


    Was this encouraging him to be a prodigal?


    ¡®Dual cultivation¡­ This seems to be a way to increase cultivation¡­¡¯


    Since this passive Perfect Fusion did not have any side effects, Zhou Feng did not really mind.


    After all, he did not have the ambition to be a saint.


    Speaking of which, there were a few passive skills that increased his charm and appearance.


    His luck with women had always been good, and there were quite a number of people who were related to him.


    ¡°Calm down! Don¡¯t be impulsive. Follow your own rhythm! You can¡¯t force it!¡±


    Zhou Feng forced himself to calm down.


    At such a time, he had to calm down.


    There was no need for him to think too much. Everything would just go according to plan.


    Since he was still alive, he would be able to draw new passive skills continuously.


    There was no need to rush for quick success.

 Chapter 527 - Meeting Xue Ji Again

    Outside the easternmost region, the land was dry and decaying.


    Ever since the easternmost region had extracted countless Spiritual Veins, the rest of the land had been deteriorating at a uniform speed.


    Even the Spiritual Qi was declining.


    It was said that most of the higher-ups of the Daemon League were in the same place, stabilizing the Spiritual Veins that had been gathered in the easternmost region.


    Usually, only a few Ascendants were able to maintain order.


    This was also the reason Zhou Feng was able to escape from the easternmost region.


    However, in the Eastern Land, there were still some places where cultivators were gathered.


    And they were fighting against the Daemon League¡¯s plundering and invasion.


    The Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground!


    This was once the place where a king had fallen, and it had also been the capital of a dynasty.


    But for some reason, this dynasty disappeared one day.


    Even the cultivators of this dynasty were buried in the capital.


    As for why this place was a forbidden ground, the reason was very simple. This place was very dangerous.


    For most cultivators, it was a perilous land.


    A large number of demonic cultivators and ghost cultivators gathered here. At the same time, the headquarters of a large number of assassination organizations were there.


    Only those desperadoes and vagabond cultivators who didn¡¯t care about their lives would set foot there.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng arrived there.


    ¡°Is this the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground?¡±


    Ever since he had entered this area, the sun in the sky had been blocked by layers of dark clouds.


    A gloomy and cold air had been hovering in the surroundings without dissipating.


    Moreover, he had always sensed that someone was watching him closely.


    He had come here to get some information about the easternmost region.


    Although Zhou Feng planned to take revenge on the easternmost region, he was not a reckless person.


    Only by knowing yourself and your enemy could you win every battle.


    Therefore, he came to the East King¡¯s forbidden land to buy some information.


    The most important thing was to find out about the Spirit Filling Convention.


    If he remembered correctly, the Spirit Filling Convention was the process of the easternmost region filling up the sea area with land through Spiritual Veins.


    If he found an opportunity to get one or two Spiritual Veins, would the cultivation resources come soon?


    Perhaps no one would have thought that Zhou Feng would be so bold.


    Not only did he dare to find trouble with the easternmost region, but he was even scheming for Spiritual Veins.


    You must know those were Spiritual Veins. Even the smallest Spiritual Vein was not something that one or two cultivators could control.


    Moreover, the smallest Spiritual Vein could at least hatch ten small cultivation clans.


    Such a precious item definitely had an Ascendant overseeing it.


    Even if Zhou Feng was in the Dao Enlightenment realm, it was more or less impossible for him to plot against a Spiritual Vein.


    In the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground, other than the gloomy and cold air that did not dissipate, the people here were all tightly wrapped, and their bodies emitted an aura that was not to be trifled with.


    The Divine Ability realm was considered a relatively low cultivation level in this kind of place!


    There was also a city in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    This city¡¯s name was Ghost City, and this was probably the only place that had a bit of order.


    ¡®How is this possible!? This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly saw a familiar figure.


    He saw that Xue Ji was actually right in front of him.


    At that moment, Xue Ji didn¡¯t fit in with the surrounding environment.


    She was wearing a long white dress, and her hair cascaded her back like a waterfall. Her exquisite face revealed a seductive expression.


    The special charm of an Azure Fox firmly attracted most of the surrounding cultivators.


    ¡°You¡¯re finally here. I¡¯ve been waiting for you for a long time.¡±


    When Xue Ji saw Zhou Feng appear, a trace of joy immediately appeared on her face.


    Then, she directly rushed toward Zhou Feng.


    The eyes of the surrounding demonic cultivators suddenly turned green from jealousy.


    ¡®Who is it? He actually obtained the favor of such a peerless beauty!¡¯


    To be honest, there wasn¡¯t a single good person among the cultivators who could appear here.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that Xue Ji had killed a few people, they would have swarmed over.


    Beautiful women! In the eyes of these people, they were playthings! They were resources!


    Previously, Xue Ji had attracted the attention of countless cultivators, but now, Zhou Feng had instantly become the target of public criticism.


    This was naturally because Xue Ji ran to Zhou Feng¡¯s side.


    Then, she directly held his hand and put on a helpless expression.


    ¡°How did you know that I would come here? And what¡¯s your purpose?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body started to reek of blood upon facing Xue Ji, who was grabbing his right hand.


    There was no emotion in his tone.


    Although he owed Xue Ji a big favor, he would not let his guard down because of this.


    Not shaking off Xue Ji immediately could already be considered that Zhou Feng was giving her a lot of face.


    Why was Xue Ji able to know in advance that he was coming to the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground?


    What exactly was her purpose?


    If Xue Ji was unable to explain these few questions clearly, Zhou Feng was afraid that he would directly kill her.


    There was no chance of rebirth, so he had to become even more cautious.


    ¡°So it¡¯s a sl*t! Throwing herself at this gigolo! This gigolo is actually not willing!


    ¡°Kid! Why don¡¯t you give this sl8t to me!


    ¡°How about I suffer some losses?¡±


    After seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s unfamiliarity with Xue Ji, Dong Feng stood out, his words revealing only arrogance.


    He had offended Xue Ji and Zhou Feng right from the start.


    Moreover, this person was different from most people who hid their faces. He actually showed his face openly.


    Xue Ji explained very naturally, ¡°This is because I have chosen you to be my man. I could only know where you¡¯d probably pass through thanks to the Marriage Stone!


    ¡°Speaking of which, husband, your hiding ability is really amazing. If it weren¡¯t for the ancestor helping me, I really wouldn¡¯t have been able to find where you were, husband!¡±


    There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of awkwardness in her words. She directly identified Zhou Feng as her husband.


    Marriage Stone! This was a very special type of stone!


    As long as both parties had a marriage affinity, they could use this stone to find traces of the other half.


    However, this kind of stone could only be found in the Underground Jade Spring World.


    And it was not necessarily accurate, as there was only a vague location.


    Xue Ji had requested the help of the Azure Fox Ancestor.


    After finding the approximate location of Zhou Feng¡¯s rebirth point, she then discovered that Zhou Feng would appear near the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    Barren lands surrounded the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground, so a simple deduction could be made.


    Since Zhou Feng would arrive there, Xue Ji had come to scout ahead of time.


    ¡°Then regarding the Azure Fox Clan¡­


    ¡°And why¡­¡±


    After hearing this explanation, his expression relaxed a little.


    Then, he continued to ask.


    He wanted to know why Xue Ji would do this.


    ¡°Well, it¡¯s very simple!¡±


    Xue Ji was like a little wife, answering all his questions.


    She directly explained it to Zhou Feng.


    The two of them talked to each other and got to the key point.


    Xue Ji even got close to Zhou Feng¡¯s ear and whispered to him. Then, her hot breath sprayed onto Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    Dong Feng, who was originally extremely arrogant, was instantly embarrassed.


    1


    Zhou Feng and Xue Ji acted as if they hadn¡¯t seen him and were talking to each other.


    He was ignored like a fool.


    Zhou Feng and Xue Ji acted like a couple flirting with each other.

 Chapter 528 - Vitality Extraction

    What surprised Zhou Feng was that Xue Ji actually told him clearly why she approached him.


    Xue Ji even stated bluntly that she would claim him if there were no accidents.


    After obtaining the crucial information about the Azure Fox Clan, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°The Azure Fox Clan¡­ Isn¡¯t it akin to a parasitic clan?¡±


    ¡°Parasites? That might not be true!¡±


    Xue Ji did not get angry when she heard this.


    This was because the Azure Fox Clan had always survived like this.


    But if the Azure Fox Clan did not have any ability, they could not even be parasites.


    For example, the Azure Fox Clan possessed one of the strongest dual cultivation techniques, could obtain all sorts of secret information, and they also knew secret places. Even some things from ancient times were very clear to them.


    It could be said that the Azure Fox Clan had directly positioned themselves as support characters.


    This sort of positioning, however, had allowed the Azure Fox Clan to walk to the peak.


    When Xue Ji spoke of the Azure Fox Clan¡¯s secrets, Zhou Feng could hear it very clearly, but the others could only hear vague voices.


    This caused many people to frown.


    Dong Feng, who had been left by the side for a long time, was enraged.


    ¡°You!¡±


    There had never been anyone who could ignore him here.


    Zhou Feng and Xue Ji¡¯s attitudes provoked Dong Feng¡¯s anger.


    In the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground, no matter what, he, Dong Feng, was more or less an influential figure.


    Yet, he was completely ignored now.


    He wanted to see from where Zhou Feng drew this confidence.


    The experienced Dong Feng also knew that if he didn¡¯t have some confidence, he definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to maintain such a calm appearance.


    Therefore, he looked very angry as he released a thousand-year-old resentful ghost.


    This thousand-year-old resentful ghost was already hiding underground, ready to launch a sneak attack at any time.


    Dong Feng dared to be so arrogant because he had the strength.


    He was a famous ghost cultivator in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    He had even comprehended the principle of Extreme Yin forming Yang. His body didn¡¯t seem to have been corroded by the Ghost Qi.


    On the contrary, his body was full of Blood Qi and extremely tough.


    ¡°It¡¯s going to be a good show!¡±


    ¡°Tsk, tsk! That lunatic Dong Feng isn¡¯t such a brainless person!¡±


    ¡°That woman isn¡¯t a good person either! Before this, some people wanted to get close to her but didn¡¯t gain any benefits!¡±


    ¡°On the other hand, I can¡¯t see through that pretty boy! Just what kind of charm does a mere Divine Ability cultivator have?¡±


    ¡°I can¡¯t see through him either. Could it be that he¡¯s a pretty boy to whom the seductive vixen has taken a fancy?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people skillfully watched the dispute between Zhou Feng and Dong Feng.


    They even began to whisper to each other.


    In this place, fighting was a very common thing.


    Cultivators died here every day. Those who were able to watch the dispute here were all old foxes.


    Therefore, these people simply watched the dispute as if it was nothing.


    As long as one had some experience, they would be able to see how powerful Xue Ji and Dong Feng were.


    However, many people could not see through Zhou Feng.


    Firstly, Zhou Feng was a mere Divine Ability cultivator.


    Divine Ability cultivators might be considered powerful in other places, but they were somewhat unpresentable here.


    Secondly, Zhou Feng had cultivated anew, and his tempering and control of his body had almost reached perfection.


    Besides his normal aura, his entire body seemed shrouded in a dense fog.


    It made it impossible for others to detect his true strength.


    Therefore, many people looked down on Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    After Zhou Feng finished testing Xue Ji, he also sensed the resentful ghost underground at the first moment.


    Then, he glanced at Xue Ji.


    Xue Ji also glanced at him.


    Then, the two of them attacked at the same time.


    Although they didn¡¯t say anything, the two of them inexplicably bonded together, and a gust of cold air exploded from Xue Ji¡¯s body.


    At that moment, the cold wind descended, and everyone present felt as if they were in a glacier.


    Not only did their actions become slow, but even their thinking speed became slower.


    Xue Ji had broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm comprehending the great Dao of Ice and Snow.


    Therefore, the moment she made her move, a world-changing phenomenon appeared.


    ¡°Not good!?¡±


    Although Dong Feng was somewhat prepared, he was still shocked.


    Why did she make her move just like that?


    There were no signs at all!


    Wasn¡¯t Xue Ji just having a good chat with Zhou Feng? Why did she suddenly go all out?


    The moment Xue Ji made her move, Zhou Feng also keenly seized the opportunity.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a long void spear in an extremely illusory state, which then pierced straight toward Dong Feng¡¯s glabella.


    The coordination between the two could be described as flawless.


    Xue Ji assisted in controlling while Zhou Feng was in charge of attacking.


    One at the front and one at the back¡ªthere was not the slightest feeling of stagnation. It was extremely smooth.


    ¡°With just you?¡±


    Although Dong Feng¡¯s expression was a little ugly, it was not so easy to deal with him.


    Countless vengeful souls rushed out of his body while a shield formed by a skull blocked in front of him.


    No matter what, Dong Feng could be considered a Dao Enlightenment cultivator.


    This puny Divine Ability brat wanted to kill him? Was he dreaming?


    Even if Xue Ji wanted to take him down, it would at least require some effort.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Dong Feng¡¯s image changed in an instant.


    Countless vengeful souls wrapped around his body, and his pupils turned dark green.


    The Ghost King Shield blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s void spear and controlled the thousand-year-old resentful ghost hidden underground.


    At that moment, Dong Feng felt that he had a great advantage.


    If it were a head-on confrontation, Dong Feng was really not afraid of anyone.


    After all, ghost cultivators were least afraid of head-on confrontations.


    Who could beat him in a head-on competition?


    However, he suddenly noticed a trace of pity in the eyes of Xue Ji opposite him.


    Zhou Feng, on the other hand, had always had that calm look on his face.


    ¡®Pity? Why would she feel pity?


    ¡®Something does not seem right.¡¯


    Just as he was thinking about this, he suddenly felt that all the vengeful souls he had a connection with had been destroyed.


    A chill ran down his back!


    ¡°I¡ª¡±


    Suddenly, hundreds of void spears were stabbed into his back.


    He had not felt that countless spears had appeared when Zhou Feng hurled his first spear.


    They were stabbed into Dong Feng¡¯s back!


    What made Dong Feng most desperate was that a green lotus had wrapped around Zhou Feng and Xue Ji.


    ¡®A connate numinous treasure? A defensive one at that!?¡¯


    The dark red ghost claw that extended from the ground was immediately blocked.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Dong Feng wanted to escape at that moment but discovered something in despair.


    His body had already been frozen stiff.


    ¡®When did this happen? I am clearly still conscious!


    ¡®Why!? Why did I suddenly¡ª¡¯


    Zhou Feng grabbed with his right hand, and the vitality in Dong Feng¡¯s body began to drain away crazily.


    Although the inheritance left behind by Heavenly Venerate Longevity didn¡¯t include any divine abilities, it taught Zhou Feng the method to extract vitality and longevity substances.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity hadn¡¯t mastered any divine abilities.


    He hadn¡¯t even needed to use any flashy attacks during battle. After all, everyone with ill intentions toward Heavenly Venerate Longevity would have their vitality drained away, and they would die of old age.


    Zhou Feng was now using Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s method, draining all of Dong Feng¡¯s vitality.

 Chapter 529 - The Eastern Kings Mausoleum

    Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s fleshly body was practically comparable to mature ginseng.


    A casual bite would prolong one¡¯s life, but not many people would go looking for trouble with him.


    It was precisely because of Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s method of disregarding all conditions and draining one¡¯s vitality that he was a terrifying figure.


    Now, Zhou Feng was reenacting Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s ultimate skill.


    Zhou Feng drained everything, be it vitality, flesh, Blood Qi, or longevity substances!


    Moreover, this process was extremely painful, and Dong Feng¡¯s face began to distort crazily.


    ¡°How could it be¡­ If only this vixen weren¡¯t here!¡±


    Dong Feng wanted to struggle, but he couldn¡¯t.


    He was the same as many people who had ever targeted Zhou Feng.


    They had underestimated Zhou Feng¡¯s strength and methods.


    That was why they had died.


    If it were just Zhou Feng alone, Dong Feng believed that he would definitely not die.


    Unfortunately, he had the help of Xue Ji, a Dao Enlightenment expert.


    That bone-chilling coldness directly froze Dong Feng¡¯s body, and he could not move at all. That was why Zhou Feng could absorb vitality so easily.


    Regret! Despair! All kinds of emotions were displayed on Dong Feng¡¯s face at this moment.


    ¡®Why was I so cheap?


    ¡®Why did I have to jump out and look for trouble? If I hadn¡¯t been so cheap at that time, I might not have fallen into such a state!¡¯


    Regretfully, it was too late to say anything now.


    Dong Feng¡¯s entire body was sucked dry, losing the essence of his flesh and vitality. It was as if he was a corpse that had been placed there for hundreds of years.


    He collapsed to the ground, and his body disintegrated, scattering all over the ground.


    A dignified Dao Enlightenment cultivator wasn¡¯t even left with a complete corpse after his death.


    Many people¡¯s eyelids twitched, and their backs turned cold.


    ¡°What kind of gigolo is this!?¡±


    1


    ¡°This is clearly a man-eating tiger!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current behavior was even more devilish than that of demonic cultivators.


    ¡®The passive Human Slayer¡¯s stacks increased!¡¯


    By killing Dong Feng here, not only did he obtain lots of longevity substances, but his passive Human Slayer got more powerful.


    1


    Human Slayer¡¯s passive increase was also Zhou Feng¡¯s main passive increase.


    This was because this passive increase was simple and crude.


    Compared to other methods, it was more direct.


    If he wanted to increase his strength quickly, stacking his passive skills was naturally the best choice.


    ¡°Is this the inheritance of Heavenly Venerate Longevity? It¡¯s really amazing!¡±


    At that moment, Xue Ji also revealed a look of admiration.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t reply. He stood aside and pulled out his right hand.


    Although he now understood that Xue Ji didn¡¯t have any ill intentions, it didn¡¯t mean that he would become a dao companion with Xue Ji.


    In this situation, it was better to be an ordinary friend.


    Because of his previous experience, he preferred to stay alone.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng planned to put some distance between him and Xue Ji first.


    The development after that would depend on fate!


    ¡°It seems that husband is still not used to it! Since that¡¯s the case, let¡¯s meet again later!¡±


    Xue Ji¡¯s temperament instantly changed from that of a little girl who worshiped Zhou Feng to a mature and charming big sister.


    The fragrance on her body lingered in the air, but she disappeared into the distance step by step.


    She appeared very suddenly and left very suddenly.


    This left Zhou Feng somewhat surprised.


    ¡®She left? Just like that?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly, but he calmed down after a second.


    Then, he ignored the strange gazes of the others and continued to walk forward.


    He did not forget his goal of coming here.


    ¡­


    The Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground was indeed the most well-informed place in the Eastern Land.


    Zhou Feng had been there for a few days already and obtained a lot of information.


    Most of the information was about the easternmost region, and there was something that drew his full attention.


    The cultivators of the easternmost region would transport a Spiritual Vein, one of strategic importance.


    The Daemon League had sent five Ascendants, plenty of Dao Enlightenment cultivators, and countless elite cultivators to transport it.


    In order to ensure the safe return of the Spiritual Vein to the easternmost region.


    This news could be said to have spread everywhere in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    Many demonic cultivators had gathered together in order to get a share of the spoils.


    The transportation of a huge Spiritual Vein would definitely cause all kinds of damage and wear and tear.


    They would become rich if they could pick up some broken Spiritual Vein fragments.


    It could be said that every time the Daemon League transported a Spiritual Vein back to the easternmost region was akin to throwing a festival.


    This time was naturally no exception.


    ¡®There¡¯s still a lot of time! There should be enough time! Before that, I have to advance to the Dao Enlightenment realm!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt his body¡¯s thirst for Spiritual Qi as he calculated in his heart.


    He had to participate in the Daemon League¡¯s transportation of the Spiritual Veins.


    This was an excellent opportunity for him to take revenge.


    But before he participated, he had to restore his cultivation to the Enlightenment realm.


    Because only in this way could Zhou Feng have the ability to protect himself.


    However, in order to step into the Dao Enlightenment realm, his physical body had to undergo nine transformations.


    The cultivation bottlenecks could no longer stop Zhou Feng. However, what stopped him now was the huge need for cultivation resources.


    After his rebirth, his physical body was abnormal.


    His thirst for cultivation resources had also reached a terrifying level.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng needed a huge amount of resources to help his physical body transform.


    ¡®The Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum!¡¯


    Zhou Feng put his full attention on the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    The former Eastern King was buried here¡ªthis was a figure that had transcended the Ascension realm.


    After his death, his physical body directly nourished this land and nurtured countless spirit herbs. At the same time, the descendants of the former Eastern King also placed countless burial objects.


    It could be said that the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground was able to gather countless cultivators because of the existence of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Many cultivators were able to plunder some good things from within from time to time.


    It was said that someone had once discovered an ancient medicine in the main burial room!


    An ancient medicine that had already formed a spirit! This was also one of the main ingredients of the Dao Enlightenment Pill.


    Countless Pill Masters had spread the news that if one were able to obtain this ancient medicine, they would be directly qualified to obtain a Dao Enlightenment Pill.


    Simply put, as long as someone obtained this ancient medicine and gave it to a Pill Master, they could obtain a Dao Enlightenment Pill after concocting the pill.


    The rest of the cost of refining the Dao Enlightenment Pill would be borne by the Pill Master alone.


    Because of this, many cultivators were diligently exploring the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    ¡®Looks like It¡¯s time to go and investigate the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum!¡¯


    While Zhou Feng was thinking this, a fragrant wind blew in his face.


    ¡°Long time no see, husband~¡±


    Zhou Feng saw Xue Ji twisting her graceful body and appearing in front of him with a smile.


    Xue Ji, who had suddenly disappeared, suddenly reappeared at this time.


    ¡°What do you want to do?¡±


    Looking at the charming Xue Ji, Zhou Feng tried his best to keep calm.


    Xue Ji replied in an ambiguous tone, ¡°Nothing. It¡¯s just that I have a map of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum in my hand. I wonder if husband wants it~¡±

 Chapter 530 - Planning the Route

    ¡°This is the second time! What do you want to do?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Xue Ji and did not have much of a reaction.


    Even though Xue Ji was holding the map of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum, he would not lose his sense of propriety. There were gains and losses. This was his principle in life.


    Nothing was gained for free. Therefore, if he accepted this map, he might lose something.


    As such, Zhou Feng was very calm.


    Xue Ji was honest and directly said what she was thinking, ¡°I want to make friends with you. Don¡¯t you guys like this kind of vague feeling?¡±


    She did this naturally to deepen Zhou Feng¡¯s impression of her.


    At the same time, it could test Zhou Feng¡¯s character.


    Although Xue Ji said that she had chosen Zhou Feng, it was still in a probing stage until the last moment.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s performance in one place were not enough to satisfy her, then Xue Ji would directly kill Zhou Feng.


    /


    After that, she would look for the next target.


    And why was Xue Ji so honest, telling everything?


    This should be considered a tradition of the Azure Fox Clan.


    They would not play tricks or hide anything from their target.


    They would choose to make everything clear from the start.


    That way, there would not be any hidden dangers in the future.


    This was also why the Azure Fox Clan had managed to captivate the former Human Emperor.


    Putting everything on the table and not putting on airs was to let one make a choice.


    It had to be said that compared to putting on airs, this method was very easy to gain the favor of many people.


    It was also because of this that Zhou Feng did not choose to make a move.


    If it were anyone else, given his temper, he would have long attacked without saying a word.


    However, he really could not make a move for the time being when facing Xue Ji.


    After all, Xue Ji could be considered his benefactor. He had obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance because of her.


    Moreover, she had even brought over the map of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    ¡®Troublesome!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was expressionless, but he was starting to feel a little troublesome in his heart.


    ¡°I¡¯ll give it to you.¡±


    Xue Ji seemed to be able to see through his thoughts.


    She left the map behind, and a fragrant wind burst forth as she disappeared before his eyes.


    Looking at the map on the ground, Zhou Feng picked it up expressionlessly.


    He wasn¡¯t a pretentious person. Since the map was in front of him, it could be used as a reference.


    As for Xue Ji, Zhou Feng was a little helpless. He didn¡¯t know how to deal with her.


    ¡®Meat delivered to my door¡­ Why don¡¯t you eat it?¡¯


    Zhou Feng quickly remembered an old saying from his world.


    He wasn¡¯t a saint.


    Why should he run away as long as there were no dangers?


    Moreover, didn¡¯t he recently acquire a new passive skill?


    It was impossible for him to be alone on the road to immortality.


    Zhou Feng thought of the wear and tear problem that Heavenly Venerate Longevity had encountered in the later stages.


    Would this wear and tear problem weaken if he had someone to accompany him?


    For a moment, his thoughts were a mess.


    Back at the Azure Fox Clan¡­


    Xue Ji returned to the Azure Fox Clan, and a voice sounded at that moment.


    ¡°Yo! Isn¡¯t this our good sister? Why hasn¡¯t your little lover accepted you yet?¡±


    ¡°Has your little lover¡¯s side effects from his rebirth disappeared?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A few flirtatious voices started to mock Xue Ji.


    Xue Ji had long gotten used to this.


    She even started to mock back.


    ¡°There¡¯s no need for you, my sisters, to worry. Not only has he been reborn, but his strength has even improved after being reborn!


    ¡°Furthermore, he¡¯s alone. Can my sisters top that?¡±


    In her words, Xue Ji had a strong sense of superiority.


    After all, no matter what, she had a goal.


    And Zhou Feng¡¯s performance was indeed beyond imagination.


    Why had Xue Ji been so anxious to use the Marriage Stone to find traces of Zhou Feng?


    It was because she knew that Zhou Feng might face an extended weakness period after being reborn.


    Someone would have to protect him during that period, and he also needed various resources to recover.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know that Xue Ji had spent some time in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground for some time.


    In the end, she encountered Zhou Feng by chance.


    But the actual situation was better than Xue Ji had imagined.


    When she met Zhou Feng again, not only did Zhou Feng not seem weak at all, but he was even more unfathomable than before. The potential contained in that fleshy body even made Xue Ji somewhat apprehensive.


    There was also that method of draining vitality.


    It made Xue Ji think that Zhou Feng had already inherited part of Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    Therefore, there was no need for her to protect him at all.


    Given his terrifying potential, Xue Ji even thought that Zhou Feng did not lose out to some of the monsters of the Central Plains.


    Of course, the most important point was that Zhou Feng seemed to have no confidants or be tied by love.


    Xue Ji could be his main wife.


    Just this alone made her situation much better than her sisters¡¯.


    ¡°Hmph! B*tch!¡±


    ¡°In the end, I can¡¯t compete with the cultivators of the Central Plains!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When Xue Ji said that, she instantly hit the sore spot of many people.


    Although the Azure Foxes were famous, there was one thing that all the Azure Foxes were sore about.


    That was that they would never have the status of a first wife. Those monsters of the Central Plains would never choose an Azure Fox as their first wife.


    Being pampered as a concubine was already the limit.


    Therefore, those voices stopped when Xue Ji said she could monopolize Zhou Feng by herself.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng did not know that Xue Ji had directly won in the Azure Fox Clan.


    He was carefully observing the map of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    He also asked the AI to record all the information.


    Finally, when he personally entered the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum, he would draw a more accurate map on the spot.


    ¡°The main burial room! This is definitely the final goal!¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned and began to plan his route.


    First, he defined the final goal of this operation.


    That was the main burial room of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum. There were countless large formations protecting it.


    At the same time, various defensive mechanisms were left behind by the descendants of the Eastern King. It was the most dangerous place in the entire mausoleum.


    Of course, this was also the place that was least explored.


    Naturally, most of the treasures were there!


    The descendants of the Eastern King had sealed the entire dynasty¡¯s foundation there.


    It was all for the sake of rising up again in the future. It was said that there was a stone forest in the core burial room.


    This stone forest was made up of countless stone tablets, and each stone tablet recorded a divine ability.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s goal was that place!


    He needed more divine abilities, and just a few divine abilities were not enough to satisfy his appetite.


    His second goal was the Spiritual Vein of the mausoleum.


    The mausoleum had not only a broken Spiritual Vein but also many spirit herbs.


    It was just enough to use as food for his body¡¯s transformation.


    ¡°I¡¯ll explore the left wing of the mausoleum first, then to the main burial room!¡±


    Zhou Feng planned a route based on the marks on the map.


    If everything went well, he planned to go to the right wing of the mausoleum to take a look. According to the map, countless spiritual and dao artifacts were buried there.


    A lifebound artifact was naturally not enough to satisfy Zhou Feng¡¯s appetite.


    He needed new spiritual and dao artifacts to equip himself!

 Chapter 531 - "My Father is an Ascendant!"

    Although the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was vast, it was very difficult to find the entrance.


    Moreover, it was controlled by some forces.


    After all, the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was equivalent to a super resource point.


    Every cultivator here wanted to enter and get something.


    Therefore, people would naturally want to collect the entrance fee.


    Compared to exploring by themselves, it was safer and more stable to collect the entrance fee by sitting outside of the entrance.


    In any case, as long as the core formation of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was not broken, the resources inside could not be considered to have been completely plundered.


    Zhou Feng did not intend to forcefully break-in. Instead, he paid the fee in a very low-key manner.


    Following that, he passed through a huge stone door.


    Behind the stone door was a teleportation formation that could directly transport people into the area of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    /


    It was worth mentioning that the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was an independent space.


    It wasn¡¯t directly buried underground.


    Because of this, one needed to pass through a special passageway to enter.


    Moreover, if one entered the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum, they would need to think of a way to get out.


    This was because there wasn¡¯t a teleportation formation inside to leave.


    That¡¯s right!


    Under normal circumstances, one could only enter the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum, but they could not leave.


    Therefore, before entering the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum, one had to prepare a teleportation talisman.


    In any case, a group of Talisman Masters and Pill Masters was gathered outside the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Zhou Feng did have these.


    Speaking of this, he still had to thank Dong Feng. This person¡¯s storage ring contained many good things.


    There was a feeling of distortion.


    Zhou Feng felt the world spin, and then he landed in an area with heavy Yin Qi.


    A wave of Yin Qi that was like a surging tide suddenly assaulted Zhou Feng from all directions.


    Then, countless Yin soldiers rushed from one direction.


    ¡°What a strange place!¡±


    Zhou Feng used the Starseizer Steps and instantly avoided the surging Yin Qi.


    The Yin Qi was extremely heavy because many people were buried there, and they were still underground.


    At the same time, it gave birth to many Yin soldiers.


    One had to be careful at all times.


    Moreover, because of the Eastern King¡¯s strange death, many cultivators there would die an unnatural death.


    Once one encountered something strange, they had to leave immediately.


    The cultivators summed up these warnings with their lives.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go to the Divine Ability Stone Forest first!¡±


    Zhou Feng had the AI compare the map while collecting all kinds of information.


    He himself restrained his aura and slowly moved forward.


    After walking for some distance, the ground began to shake again.


    Endless Yin Qi once again gushed out from the ground.


    ¡°Is there someone fighting?¡±


    Zhou Feng heard the sounds of an intense battle.


    Even though they were so far away, one could still feel the terrifying aftershocks.


    At least, they should be cultivators at the Dao Enlightenment realm and above.


    ¡°Ah! You are courting death!¡±


    Suddenly, a piercing voice with a trace of unwillingness and resentment echoed.


    At the same time, the auras of two people started to approach this place rapidly.


    ¡°Die a horrible death? Hehe! I have long been left with only one person! Even if I die, I will take you down with me!¡±


    Wu Hui stared at the murderer in front of him.


    Zhou Feng saw the two people who were coming toward him.


    One of them was dressed luxuriously, but he looked very miserable.


    The other person did not look like a human at all. His skin was green, and his hands became extremely long. His eyes were red, and dark green poisonous gas surrounded him.


    He looked like a mutated werewolf.


    ¡°Someone? Save me! Please! My father is an Ascendant!¡±


    Deng Xin suddenly saw Zhou Feng in front of him, and the fire of hope was ignited in his heart.


    Thus, he immediately blurted out the cultivation of his father.


    In fact, he was not lying. His father was really an Ascendant.


    Unfortunately, Deng Xin was a little unlucky. All the Dao Protectors protecting him had died, and this madman was chasing him.


    This madman had actually burned his bloodline to chase him, transforming into a Sound-Suppressing Beast.


    Zhou Feng glanced at these two indifferently before disappearing on the spot. He didn¡¯t want to meddle in this kind of matter.


    ¡°I know there¡¯s a top-tier divine ability here! It¡¯s at the Divine Ability Stone Forest!¡±


    When Zhou Feng disappeared, Deng Xin immediately became anxious. He knew that he had to pay a certain price.


    He also knew that if he wanted someone to save him, he had to show his worth.


    Who would care about such a stupid thing if he had no value?


    ¡°Top-tier divine ability?¡±


    Coincidentally, Zhou Feng heard this sentence just before he left.


    If it were really a top-tier divine ability, he would be somewhat interested in it.


    After all, the last top-tier divine ability he had obtained was the Bean Soldiers Ability.


    Deng Xin took out another talisman to block the attack from behind. Then, he shouted, ¡°This divine ability is one of the 36 Great Divine Abilities!¡±


    Under such circumstances, he couldn¡¯t care less.


    ¡®One of the 36 Great Divine Abilities?¡¯


    Zhou Feng appeared again.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a cage and suppressed Wu Hui, who had turned into a Sound-Suppressing Beast.


    These two turned out to be mere Dragon Transformation cultivators, so suppressing them was a piece of cake for him even though he was a Divine Ability cultivator.


    Wu Hui¡¯s eyes were bloodshot. He was clearly just a little bit away from killing this enemy in front of him.


    ¡®Why!?


    ¡®Didn¡¯t they say that evil would be repaid with evil? Why is my luck so bad!?¡¯


    Seeing that he was temporarily safe, Deng Xin heaved a long sigh of relief.


    Fortunately, his little life was finally saved!


    Taking advantage of this time, he stole a glance at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Divine Ability realm! ? How is this possible? What kind of monster is this?¡±


    After sensing that Zhou Feng was only a Divine Ability cultivator, Deng Xin¡¯s eyes betrayed traces of surprise.


    ¡°Speak!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t give Deng Xin much time. He wanted to know whether what this person said was true or not.


    ¡°I¡¯ll speak now! I¡¯ll speak now!¡±


    Deng Xin¡¯s eyes rolled slightly.


    ¡®I have to stall for enough time! My father should have received my message and must be on his way.


    ¡®After this person receives accurate information, it¡¯s very likely that he¡¯ll leave immediately.


    ¡®When that time comes, I will be in danger. Furthermore, there is still a poison lingering in my body.


    ¡®This person should not make a move against me. After all, this person already knows that my father is an Ascendant.¡¯


    Deng Xin¡¯s eyes rolled as he thought about many things. He had to stall for time until his father came.


    ¡°Troublesome!¡±


    Zhou Feng could sense Deng Xin¡¯s thoughts.


    A void spear pierced through Deng Xin¡¯s body.


    ¡°Good! Die!¡±


    When Wu Hui saw this, he burst into laughter.


    It was unknown what kind of deep hatred these two had.


    Deng Xin revealed a look of disbelief as he stared at Zhou Feng.


    It was as if he was saying, ¡°What the hell are you doing!?¡±


    ¡°I hate it when others have ill intentions.¡±


    Zhou Feng expressionlessly extracted all of Deng Xin¡¯s vitality and searched his soul.


    Although soul searching might not be able to obtain the key information, it didn¡¯t matter.


    It wasn¡¯t like he had to obtain this top-tier divine ability.


    Compared to a top-tier divine ability, Zhou Feng still felt that his little life was more important.


    He had faced an Ascendant before.


    Now that he didn¡¯t have the chance to be reborn, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to face such a figure again.


    Before Deng¡¯s heart died, he probably did not think that the reason for his death was that he had said his father was an Ascendant¡­

 Chapter 532 - Great Treasure?

    ¡°Good, good, good!¡±


    Wu Hui was overjoyed when he saw that he had gotten his revenge.


    At the same time, Deng Xin¡¯s death also made him lose the desire to continue living.


    However, before that, he kindly reminded Zhou Feng, ¡°You¡¯d better run! This person came from the easternmost region, and his father is the deputy leader of the Daemon League!


    ¡°As long as you leave the Eastern land, you¡¯ll be safe!¡±


    With that, Wu Hui chose to kill himself.


    ¡®The deputy leader of the Daemon League?¡¯


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    Wasn¡¯t this a coincidence?


    It just so happened that there was a grudge between him and the Daemon League.


    He didn¡¯t pay too much attention to this matter.


    ¡°The soul search failed!¡±


    The only slightly infuriating thing was that the soul search had failed!


    Deng Xin¡¯s soul seemed to have some sort of protection, so Zhou Feng¡¯s crude soul search technique was somewhat helpless.


    ¡®Forget it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not pay too much attention to it. After all, this was only a small episode.


    After erasing all traces, he continued to move forward.


    A few figures arrived some time after Zhou Feng¡¯s departure.


    ¡°The young master Is dead?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s very clean. Not a single trace was left behind. Even his soul was vanquished!¡±


    ¡°His methods are extremely vicious! The young master couldn¡¯t resist at all!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    These few people analyzed the situation back then with just a few words.


    At the Divine Ability Stone Forest¡­


    This was once the land of inheritance for the descendants of the Eastern King.


    Countless divine ability stone tablets were recorded there. However, ever since the Eastern King¡¯s dynasty fell, countless cultivators had entered the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    A large number of divine ability stone tablets were either moved away or damaged.


    Now, only a few stone tablets in the center were left. They could be preserved because a few exotic beasts were guarding them.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s first goal for this trip was the Divine Ability Stone Forest, which was in the main burial room.


    There were countless formations guarding it, and even if they were broken, they would automatically recover after a few days.


    Therefore, how could one get into the main burial room?


    That was something worth pondering over.


    ¡°There are so many people?¡±


    Zhou Feng had just arrived when he found many cultivators surrounding the formation.


    Most of them were in small teams, and it was rare to see someone like him alone.


    The most eye-catching team was a three-person team.


    The leader of the team had a shifty look. Not only was he short, but his back was slightly bent, making him look a wretched fellow.


    Standing on both sides was a muscular man who looked like an iron tower.


    The other was a woman with a hot figure and exotic purple hair.


    Why were these three people very eye-catching? It was because many corpses were lying around them.


    The corpses on the ground were constantly bleeding.


    The flowing blood slowly converged into a small river and then turned into a strange pattern.


    ¡°Boss! Can It be broken?¡±


    Old Second Niu looked around and sounded a bit anxious.


    Beside him, San Niang also urged him.


    ¡°Boss, there are more and more of them!¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s the hurry!? Is this core formation so easy to break?¡±


    Old Rat was also a bit impatient.


    It turned out that the three-person team was actually breaking the core formation of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Why was the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum able to attract countless cultivators after experiencing so many visits from cultivators?


    It was due to its core formation.


    This core formation could control the other formations of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Even if many places were cracked, the structure of the entire mausoleum would be transformed in a few days.


    The broken formations would turn into other formations.


    Some treasures would even appear out of thin air.


    Some people guessed that this should be the training ground for the younger generation of the Eastern King dynasty.


    The formations in the mausoleum were equivalent to each level.


    As long as one could successfully pass through, one would be able to obtain the corresponding rewards.


    Therefore, some people believed that if one could crack the core formation, it would be equivalent to opening the treasure vault that the Eastern King¡¯s dynasty had buried there.


    Therefore, someone would come and try to crack it every once in a while.


    ¡°A formation?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the dense fog in front of him.


    He wasn¡¯t very familiar with formations, and he was even more clueless about how to crack one.


    But there was one thing that he could be sure of.


    With the increase of the AI¡¯s computational ability, the accuracy of Hexadirectional Calculation had increased a lot.


    Especially since Zhou Feng had stepped into the Dao Enlightenment realm and entered the special state of comprehending the laws of the great Dao, this allowed him to obtain a large amount of data, making Hexadirectional Calculation even more terrifying.


    ¡°This location?¡±


    Almost in an instant, Zhou Feng found the best location to break into the formation forcefully.


    That¡¯s right!


    At this time, Zhou Feng planned to directly force his way into the formation protecting the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Don¡¯t think that he was messing around.


    On the contrary, breaking through was Zhou Feng¡¯s best choice.


    First, he had Hexadirectional Calculation to predict good and bad luck.


    Second, after rebirth, his physical body had reached an even more terrifying level.


    Moreover, he had successfully condensed a Fate Wheel and could control his vitality at will.


    As long as he didn¡¯t seek death, there shouldn¡¯t be any problems under normal circumstances.


    Moreover, his so-called forced entry would not be executed by himself.


    Don¡¯t forget that he had his dao soldiers!


    Zhou Feng took out a handful of spirit beans.


    Instantly, more than 10 Divine Ability earth soldiers appeared.


    As for why they were not Dragon Transformation dao soldiers, that was because Zhou Feng did not have so much time to refine them.


    In any case, he could just casually refine Divine Ability dao soldiers.


    If he wanted to refine Dragon Transformation dao soldiers, he would need to waste a lot of effort.


    In general, Divine Ability dao soldiers were more cost-effective.


    ¡°Then¡­ Let¡¯s directly charge!¡±


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s guidance, these earth soldiers began to self-destruct one by one.


    That¡¯s right! They self-destructed one by one!


    Zhou Feng planned to use the astonishing power of their collective self-destruction and tear a hole in the formation, allowing him to get inside before it was restored.


    This crazy move and the resounding explosions scared many people immediately.


    ¡°W-What is this?¡±


    ¡°Look! That man¡­¡±


    ¡°This fellow wants to break in? Avatar puppets? Self-destruction? What the hell!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were undoubtedly crazy in the onlookers¡¯ eyes.


    That was because he was constantly making Divine Ability puppets self-destruct to tear a hole in the formation.


    This was way too wild!


    No one had ever done such a thing as Zhou Feng.


    Old Rat and the others also looked at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This person¡­¡±


    After Old Rat saw Zhou Feng, the Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline in his body began to move crazily.


    That¡¯s right!


    Old Rat was able to become the leader of this three-person team because he had the Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline in his body. Not only was he very sensitive to danger, but he also had a strong ability to detect treasures.


    When Old Rat looked at Zhou Feng, the bloodline in his body told him that Zhou Feng was a treasure!? A super big treasure!?

 Chapter 533 - Ghost Python

    The treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline was a very special and rare one.


    Not only was it very sensitive to danger, but it also had a strong attraction toward invaluable items.


    Moreover, the evaluation of the value of an item was a very mysterious feeling.


    Only those who had the Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline could experience that feeling.


    The Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline had been severed a long time ago because of this characteristic.


    There was no other way!


    As long as one had the Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline, they would naturally not lack cultivation resources.


    This naturally attracted countless envious people, so it was normal for the bloodline to be severed.


    Until now, Old Rat did not dare to expose the Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline in his body. He only used a treasure-seeking spiritual artifact as a cover.


    ¡®What treasure does this person have on him?¡¯


    Old Rat began to guess if Zhou Feng had some special treasure on him.


    That was why his bloodline could sense it.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions naturally became the focus of countless people, but he did not care.


    ¡°Can¡¯t I?¡±


    He realized that it was challenging to tear apart the fog in front of him completely.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng changed his strategy. He began to try to dig a tunnel.


    He would directly enter the main burial room through the tunnel.


    Anyway, from the beginning to the end, Zhou Feng had always been using brute force to crack it.


    That¡¯s right! Brute force to crack it.


    This was because he had always believed that nothing was impossible to crack. If there was, it was just that one¡¯s strength wasn¡¯t enough.


    This was also Zhou Feng¡¯s train of thought.


    It was just charging around recklessly. Maintaining so many formations would inevitably exhaust one¡¯s energy.


    Once the energy was exhausted, the defensive formations in front of him would naturally be no longer a threat.


    ¡°You! Are you crazy? Stop it immediately!


    ¡°Do you know that doing this will attract the monsters guarding the mausoleum?


    ¡°And it¡¯s very likely to trigger the self-destruction mechanism!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy actions were getting more and more frequent, someone could not help but speak up.


    If Zhou Feng continued to do this, it was very likely that there would be unpredictable consequences.


    Some people had shared his train of thought and wanted to use force, but they quickly triggered the defense mechanism.


    There were a few monsters that were comparable to Ascendants in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Although these monsters were not actual Ascendants, their bodies were comparable to Ascendants.


    Moreover, in this mausoleum, they were almost indestructible. As long as there was Yin Qi, these monsters would be resurrected even if they died.


    ¡°Monsters?¡±


    Zhou Feng soon felt the ground beneath his feet begin to shake.


    The AI used Hexadirectional Calculation and began to divinate the good and bad luck.


    ¡®Good omen?¡¯


    Zhou Feng slightly raised his brows. It seemed like doing this was a good thing?


    Thus, Zhou Feng had no intention of stopping at all.


    Seeing this, many people couldn¡¯t help but secretly curse.


    ¡®Just where did this rash youth come from?


    ¡®Isn¡¯t he putting himself in the position of being targeted by everyone?¡¯


    There were so many cultivators present. If they attacked together, would Zhou Feng be able to withstand it?


    ¡°Let¡¯s go! It¡¯s dangerous!¡±


    All of a sudden, Old Rat¡¯s eyebrows jumped wildly.


    He took the two people beside him and left without the slightest hesitation.


    The Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline gave him a warning.


    There might be danger next. For the sake of safety, it was better to retreat first.


    In any case, this wasn¡¯t the only place to enter the main burial room. They could enter it from other locations as well.


    Additionally, Zhou Feng was also very dangerous.


    Considering the current situation, Old Rat made the best choice.


    However, Old Rat had already memorized Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance in his heart.


    ¡®This person is not ordinary! There should be a chance to meet him in the future!¡¯


    The sudden departure of Old Rat¡¯s group instantly woke up the others.


    They could not stay there any longer.


    If Zhou Feng wanted to seek death, they would let him seek death alone!


    All of a sudden, there was no one around him.


    Only Zhou Feng remained where he was, and no one bothered him.


    As expected, everyone was very cautious to have cultivated to such an extent and wouldn¡¯t take the risk of attacking Zhou Feng.


    After all, although Zhou Feng¡¯s actions looked very stupid, his calm expression betrayed he had a trump card. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t be so calm.


    ¡°It¡¯s out!¡±


    Suddenly, a puff of black smoke came out of the hole he had dug.


    This black smoke seemed to have a strong corrosive nature. Sizzling sounds came from around as soon as it escaped the ground.


    After that, a thick python suddenly appeared.


    ¡°What kind of monster is this?¡±


    Zhou Feng hurriedly took a few steps back.


    This huge python¡¯s entire body was like a burnt sarcoma, and there was a pair of strange wings in the middle of its body.


    The most disgusting thing was that this huge python¡¯s face had sharp teeth like chrysanthemums.


    The moment this Ghost Python appeared before his eyes, it spat out a mouthful of pus at Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng frowned, but he did not dodge. Instead, he summoned the green lotus.


    The transparent lotus petals blocked the pus outside.


    Next, he condensed a void bow.


    ¡°Hit!¡±


    The void arrow hit the target.


    ¡®Nothing!?¡¯


    This Ghost Python was not afraid of Zhou Feng¡¯s Great Void Primordial Qi at all.


    Not only did Zhou Feng¡¯s attack not work, but it also angered the Ghost Python.


    Yin Qi began to erupt from the ground, and the Ghost Python¡¯s body began to burst like a bubble.


    Zhou Feng decisively chose to engage in close combat!


    Ever since his rebirth, he had never tried to test his body¡¯s strength.


    The blessing of the Longevity bloodline had long allowed his body to reach an abnormal level.


    Not to mention, when Zhou Feng started cultivating again, he had integrated the body-tempering techniques of the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into battle armor!


    Relying on the terrifying defense of the green lotus, Zhou Feng directly punched the Ghost Python¡¯s body.


    This punch had more than ten passive effects attached to it!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch blew half of the gruesome Ghost Python¡¯s body,


    Large amounts of pus splattered, but the Ghost Python¡¯s body quickly began to recover.


    His expression did not change as he began to suppress it crazily.


    A faint white light appeared on his body.


    The difference in size between the two was obviously huge, yet Zhou Feng heavily suppressed the Ghost Python.


    At that point, he suddenly discovered that this Ghost Python was actually formed from Yin Qi.


    The pieces of flesh that fell were actually not real flesh and blood.


    Instead, they were condensed by Yin Qi, and the thick black Yin Qi was constantly dissipating.


    Zhou Feng had an idea and tried to absorb the Yin Qi into his body.


    The passive Perfect Transformation was immediately triggered!


    ¡®The Yin Qi can be converted into Spiritual Qi!¡¯


    Although the conversion rate was very low, Zhou Feng suddenly felt that the rations for his physical body¡¯s transformation seemed to have been obtained.


    After saying that, he began to extract the Yin Qi of the Ghost Python crazily.


    This huge amount of Yin Qi was completely converted into Spiritual Qi.


    Such an outcome was something that Zhou Feng had never thought of before.

 Chapter 534 - Sick in the Head

    Slaughter!


    In the eyes of others, this Ghost Python was an immortal monster.


    However, Zhou Feng crushed it effortlessly and even devoured the surrounding Yin Qi.


    All of it was transformed into pure Spiritual Qi, which further transformed Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body.


    ¡°This is it?¡±


    After Zhou Feng completely destroyed the Ghost Python, a big hole was left on the ground.


    This hole led to the core area and was still emitting rolling Yin Qi.


    This kind of Yin Qi had been accumulated for a long time. If one rashly moved, they would be contaminated.


    However, he didn¡¯t need to care about this problem at all.


    Originally, the defense of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was perfect.


    It existed in an independent space, and it repelled cultivators of the Ascendance realm and above from entering. Not even groups of Ascendants could break open this mausoleum.


    Next were all kinds of defensive formations, all controlled by a core.


    As long as the underground Spiritual Vein wasn¡¯t exhausted, these formations would continuously regenerate.


    Then, in order to prevent someone from digging a hole, the descendants of the Eastern King also transformed a Yin Vein underground.


    This not only allowed them to breed a large number of Yin soldiers to patrol the outer perimeter, but it also allowed them to raise some monsters to defend the underground.


    The Ghost Python was one of the monsters, specifically preventing people from digging holes.


    This Ghost Python¡¯s recovery ability was powerful. As long as there was Yin Qi, it could endlessly recover its body.


    It was equivalent to being immortal, but unfortunately, it had encountered Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng forcefully absorbed the Yin Qi from this Ghost Python, which was just enough to restrain the Ghost Python¡¯s recovery ability.


    Thus, he easily dealt with it.


    ¡°Looks like it¡¯s easier than I thought!¡±


    Zhou Feng waved his hand again and released more dao soldiers to scout the way.


    Then, he entered the hole and headed toward the main burial room.


    After he left, three figures appeared behind him sneakily.


    ¡°How is it? Is that person still there?¡±


    ¡°Look! There¡¯s a hole in the ground! That person has disappeared!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Old Rat saw the big hole in the ground with his sharp eyes and instantly understood that Zhou Feng had bypassed the formation by digging a hole.


    ¡®He¡¯s really powerful!¡¯


    Looking at the Yin Qi that was constantly seeping out, Old Rat could only say that he was impressed.


    This was because he had thought of this method before but gave up in the end.


    Old Rat was a little helpless when facing a terrifying monster that could resurrect indefinitely.


    In the end, he could only obediently crack the formations.


    Fortunately, he could finally get a ride.


    ¡°Hurry up and follow!¡±


    Old Rat and the other two immediately followed.


    Other than them, some smart people immediately came to investigate after sensing that the battle fluctuations had stopped.


    Zhou Feng did not know how many people were following behind him who wanted to take advantage of him.


    He only knew now that he was about to arrive at the destination of this trip¡ªthe Divine Ability Stone Forest, the area where countless divine abilities were recorded.


    This place had countless stone steles engraved with divine abilities, but those who entered this place could only learn one divine ability.


    Moreover, they could only rely on destiny and couldn¡¯t choose a suitable divine ability on their own.


    If one wanted to make a move there, they would activate the guardian spirit there.


    Zhou Feng had collected this information in advance.


    It was said that the guardian spirits in the Divine Ability Stone Forest had the strength that surpassed the Ascendance realm.


    They were equivalent to an invincible existence in this space.


    ¡°Battle? Someone is fighting in front?¡±


    Zhou Feng noticed countless traces of battle along the way, and many corpses were scattered on the side.


    At the same time, a suffocating power slowly spread in front of him.


    Zhou Feng felt a domineering intent from the remaining power.


    He had never felt such an unparalleled domineering intent.


    ¡°Good or bad?¡±


    All of a sudden, Hexadirectional Calculation, which had always been accurate, gave a vague divination.


    You should know that the AI had optimized Hexadirectional Calculation countless times, coupled with the enhancement of Zhou Feng¡¯s soul power, Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s ability was broken.


    Why could he crush every single opponent ever since he obtained the passive Bio AI?


    He could even effortlessly kill cultivators in the same realm.


    This was partly due to Hexadirectional Calculation, as it calculated the best angle and timing to attack.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s every attack was a sure-kill.


    Naturally, the opponent had no chance to react.


    However, Hexadirectional Calculation suddenly lost its effect.


    Even so, Zhou Feng did not stop.


    He continued to walk forward step by step.


    Soon, he saw a mess.


    The stone tablet that was originally standing there had all been shattered by someone.


    Various divine lights continued to shine, and wisps of power remained in the air.


    There was still a purple-gold stone tablet in the center, but a person was standing on it.


    ¡°Oh? Is someone here again? This feeling¡­ is interesting!¡±


    Sun Sheng turned his head, and his fighting spirit began to burn.


    Finally, an interesting opponent had arrived!


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, Sun Sheng was clearly just standing there, but a violent world-destroying ape appeared behind him.


    That feeling of destroying everything made one feel goosebumps.


    ¡°So strange! Your physical body¡­ is really strange!¡±


    Sun Sheng placed all his attention on Zhou Feng.


    He didn¡¯t know why, but Zhou Feng gave him a very strange feeling.


    Zhou Feng was clearly only a Divine Ability cultivator, but he was extremely dangerous.


    That body gave off a feeling that made people desire it.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what Sun Sheng wanted to do.


    ¡°Did you destroy all these stone tablets?¡±


    Compared to Sun Sheng, he was more concerned about the stone tablets around him.


    Those were all divine abilities, but now they were all destroyed.


    According to Zhou Feng¡¯s plan, he originally wanted to replenish the AI¡¯s database here.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! These trash divine abilities are a disgrace to the world!


    ¡°Your bloodline is so strange! Can I study it?¡±


    As soon as Sun Sheng opened his mouth, an oppressive aura was born, giving people the feeling that it could not be rejected.


    In Sun Sheng¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was really strange.


    ¡®Great tonic? This person¡¯s bloodline is a great tonic for me?


    ¡®If I devour this person¡¯s bloodline, the Savage Ape bloodline can be enhanced?¡¯


    Sun Sheng¡¯s bloodline was restless.


    Ever since he awakened his bloodline power, he had never encountered such a situation.


    Therefore, Sun Sheng directly opened his mouth.


    Naturally, no one would agree to such a request. In fact, this was just an excuse for Sun Sheng to fight.


    This person in front of him was not weak! He was a good opponent!


    This feeling arose in Sun Sheng¡¯s heart when he saw Zhou Feng.


    His fighting spirit began to rise slowly.


    ¡®He¡¯s sick!¡¯


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, Sun Sheng was sick in the head.


    The two of them had never met before, and they wanted to fight at the first meeting? If he wasn¡¯t sick, then what was?


    2

 Chapter 535 - Savage Ape’s Craziness

    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to fight this person for no reason at all.


    He was more concerned about the divine abilities recorded on the surrounding stone tablets.


    Although these stone tablets were all damaged, many were still left. The incomplete information could also fill the AI¡¯s database.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng began recording the information that remained from the very beginning.


    Sun Sheng¡¯s battle intent continued to rise, seeing that Zhou Feng did not say a word.


    He was originally a person who liked to fight, so he was exhilarated now that he had met such an unfathomable person.


    ¡°Come! Let us have a fight!¡±


    Sun Sheng was like a devil king of chaos, his large hand directly grabbing forward.


    His large hand was like a heavenly mountain, heavy as a thousand tons.


    That kind of crazy battle intent that kept spreading made Zhou Feng feel huge pressure.


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly. He was currently recording the information left behind by the stone tablet, so he didn¡¯t fight back at the first moment but moved slightly to the side.


    He used the Starseizer Steps and dodged this grab.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? How did it become like this?¡±


    ¡°Someone is fighting in front!¡±


    ¡°Is this¡­ that madman? Sun Sheng?¡±


    ¡°What! Why is this fiend in this place? Shouldn¡¯t he be participating in the Spirit Filling Convention?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Because of the large hole Zhou Feng had created, many people had followed that path and directly entered the main burial room.


    These people just happened to see Zhou Feng and Sun Sheng fighting.


    Zhou Feng and Sun Sheng didn¡¯t know each other, but after seeing Sun Sheng most of the onlookers¡¯ pupils shrank slightly, and a trace of fear appeared on their faces unconsciously.


    Sun Sheng was a real madman.


    He was very famous even in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    First, Sun Sheng¡¯s background was terrifying enough.


    He was from a single lineage of the Savage Ape clan, and behind him stood several Ascendants.


    Moreover, all of them held important positions in the Daemon League.


    Apart from that, Sun Sheng¡¯s strength was also earth-shattering.


    He had long since reached the Dao Enlightenment realm and awakened the Savage Ape¡¯s innate ability.


    Fighting above his level could be said to be as simple as eating and drinking.


    Most importantly, this person would definitely fight to the death.


    Because he had the Savage Ape bloodline, he would enter a crazy state when he fought.


    In this state, the more crazily he fought, the faster his strength would increase.


    Moreover, he would find someone to fight for no reason. This was the most troublesome matter.


    Sun Sheng would suddenly challenge someone and become crazier and crazier, but one wouldn¡¯t dare to kill him.


    This person carried the aura of an Ascendant, and he possessed a life-saving item.


    Someone had once ambushed Sun Sheng, but his seniors beat that person to the death,


    This f*cking fella was a super hedgehog.


    It was precisely because of these deeds that most people recognized Sun Sheng.


    It could be said that this person was the great god of plague in the Eastern Land.


    No one wanted to meet Sun Sheng in the wild.


    ¡°Who is this person? He can actually make Sun Sheng attack?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure. But I think he¡¯s not a simple person!¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s so fast!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Sun Sheng was so famous, and Zhou Feng, who was his opponent, was naturally noticed by many people.


    After all, Sun Sheng had high standards. Not everyone was qualified to be Sun Sheng¡¯s opponent.


    Old Rat carefully looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s expression.


    He found that Zhou Feng only frowned slightly, and there was no other emotion in his eyes.


    ¡®As expected! This is the legendary monster!¡¯


    Old Rat once again felt his bloodline throbbing and then looked at his underlings on both sides.


    A thought suddenly arose in his heart.


    A thought of submitting to Zhou Feng.


    Because of the Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline, Old Rat¡¯s battle prowess was actually not very outstanding.


    The two underlings beside him had improved over the years.


    In fact, their strength was not weaker than his, and they had begun to eye him with evil intentions.


    After all, it was a very difficult thing to completely conceal the Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline.


    All these years, Old Rat had always wanted to find a big thigh to hug, but there was no suitable candidate at all.


    Either they were not strong enough, or their temperaments were lackluster. It was not worth exposing the Treasure-Seeking Rat¡¯s bloodline.


    But now, Zhou Feng might be a good choice because Old Rat¡¯s bloodline was throbbing.


    When it came to speculation and treasure-seeking, Old Rat could be said to be the best. The Treasure-Seeking Rat bloodline had a trace of the laws of the great Dao of Destiny.


    Now the bloodline was reminding him.


    Old Rat naturally had the idea of joining Zhou Feng.


    But before he joined, he had to observe for a while.


    Zhou Feng did not know what the others were thinking, much less that there was a person who wanted to be his underling.


    He only felt very annoyed right now.


    Sun Sheng¡¯s aura was getting more and more terrifying. Every move carried a dao rhythm, making it more difficult for Zhou Feng to dodge.


    However, he had yet to completely record the information on the stone tablet.


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    Sun Sheng¡¯s face became solemn, and even the arrogance in his eyes was somewhat restrained.


    He actually didn¡¯t touch Zhou Feng in the slightest with his attack.


    This was simply inconceivable.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was like a leaf fluttering in the wind, fluttering on the spot.


    Not only did he move like an antelope hanging its horns, but there was no trace of him. His speed was inexplicably fast.


    This was not a simple Divine Ability cultivator.


    ¡°Savage Ape Carrying Cauldron!¡±


    In order to restrict Zhou Feng, Sun Sheng took out his lifebound artifact.


    It was a huge cauldron that was burning with blazing devil flames.


    This huge cauldron looked rough as if bare hands had smashed it out in ancient times.


    There were still all kinds of handprints left on it.


    However, as soon as the cauldron appeared, the surroundings seemed to be blocked by a gravity field as wisps of devil flames kept sinking.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Sun Sheng¡¯s face was like that of a mad demon. He carried the cauldron and smashed it toward Zhou Feng.


    It had started from the probing earlier, but now it was a direct attack.


    There was no sign at all. This was also the reason Sun Sheng was so famous.


    This was a madman. There was no possibility of communication at all.


    Zhou Feng faced this mad demon¡¯s attack, but he seemed exceptionally calm. His body appeared elsewhere in a flash.


    The binding power of this cauldron could not trap Zhou Feng at all.


    The Starseizer Steps had the effect of breaking free from any bindings, not to mention that Zhou Feng had improved several times.


    Therefore, Sun Sheng¡¯s attack missed once again.


    The cauldron crashed onto the ground, and a huge shockwave spread out in all directions, with the cauldron as the center.


    ¡°Interesting! Again!¡±


    Seeing this, Sun Sheng became even crazier.


    Dense hair started to appear all over his body, and his muscles collided crazily. In an instant, he grew more than a meter, while a thick and strong tail grew out of the root of Sun Sheng¡¯s tailbone.


    ¡°It¡¯s over! It¡¯s over!¡±


    ¡°Sun Sheng directly transformed into a Savage Ape!¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    When the onlookers saw this, they immediately chose to leave.


    It was evident that Sun Sheng had now entered a state of madness.


    The risk would be too great if they kept spectating.

 Chapter 536 - Disregard

    Sun Sheng¡¯s sudden transformation was unable to disturb Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng continued to dodge at an unhurried pace.


    At the same time, the AI began to analyze Sun Sheng.


    Sun Sheng¡¯s body expanded once again. All the clothes on his body were torn apart, and his thick hair began to grow wildly.


    At that point, Sun Sheng couldn¡¯t even speak normally anymore. He directly roared instead of speaking.


    The intense aura constantly emitted, especially that huge cauldron that was exuding a suppressive force, made everyone tremble in fear.


    ¡°How terrifying!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s really Sun Sheng¡¯s style! He¡¯s going crazy just because he says so!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s just a pity that those divine abilities are almost all destroyed!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Looking at the mess around them, many people felt a sense of pity.


    That was because almost all the divine ability stone tablets had been destroyed.


    Only the one divine ability stone tablet was left. The value of this place could be said to have been greatly reduced.


    Previously, due to some tacit understanding, the stone forest had been preserved quite well, and many cultivators could obtain a divine ability.


    It could be said that this place was like a public library.


    But now, it had been destroyed.


    Even the guardian spirits had been vanquished.


    This place had already been in ruins before Zhou Feng arrived.


    Sun Sheng, who had transformed into a Savage Ape, once again let out an anxious roar, but he easily dodged it and attacked once again.


    A green lotus appeared above Zhou Feng and completely blocked the aftershocks.


    ¡°Why! Why is this person so good at dodging!?¡±


    Sun Sheng¡¯s heart became increasingly frantic.


    Because from the very beginning, he had not struck Zhou Feng once.


    The cauldron in his hand was actually unable to suppress Zhou Feng in the slightest.


    Zhou Feng was able to shake off the heavy suppressive force and easily dodge every time.


    This was too strange!


    How could a mere Divine Ability cultivator, not even a Dragon Transformation cultivator, accomplish this?


    He was a Dao Enlightenment cultivator! An existence that directly comprehended the laws of the great Dao.


    Sun Sheng¡¯s personality would change a little after transforming into a Savage Ape.


    Now that he couldn¡¯t defeat it after a long time, Sun Sheng became even more irritable.


    And at this time, Zhou Feng finally recorded all the incomplete divine abilities in the surroundings.


    ¡°Even a Dao Enlightenment cultivator can¡¯t do anything to me?¡±


    Actually, Zhou Feng was also a little surprised.


    He also didn¡¯t expect that Sun Sheng couldn¡¯t do anything to him.


    There was clearly a difference of two realms, but he relied on his Battle Instinct to dodge.


    Together with the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation, every move of Sun Sheng was analyzed and dissected.


    Every time Sun Sheng moved, Zhou Feng¡¯s mind would be filled with countless escape plans.


    Finally, with the addition of the mysterious Starseizer Steps, Zhou Feng managed to walk leisurely.


    After enduring for so long, it was time to counterattack!


    Zhou Feng once again used the green lotus to block the aftershock and then condensed his Blood Qi.


    He threw a punch!


    This punch was silent, but Sun Sheng kept retreating.


    The difference in size between the two was huge. Zhou Feng had a normal size, while Sun Sheng was like a small giant.


    At that moment, Sun Sheng was pushed back by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    The visual impact was indescribable.


    Anger! Madness! All kinds of emotions kept appearing on Sun Sheng¡¯s face.


    He felt a needle-like pain.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s small fist actually contained a huge amount of power.


    This anger made Sun Sheng¡¯s body expand further, and his aura became more and more violent.


    However, in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, this situation was just exasperation.


    He was still as calm as ever, constantly dodging all kinds of attacks.


    It could be said that Zhou Feng completely defeated Sun Sheng in terms of technique alone.


    Such a situation could be said to be extremely rare and even impossible to happen.


    ¡°He¡¯s being played? This¡­¡±


    ¡°This madman is actually being played?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing this scene, many people were unable to close their mouths.


    It was really hard to accept.


    Was the gap between the two so big!?


    Following that, Zhou Feng found the right opportunity. With a trace of destruction in his hand, he left a small cut on Sun Sheng¡¯s body, and fresh blood immediately gushed out.


    That¡¯s right! The cut was very small, but fresh blood kept spurting out like a fountain.


    Moreover, it had no intention of stopping. Even the wound began to expand.


    This kind of injury didn¡¯t attract Sun Sheng¡¯s attention at all. Instead, the intense pain made him even more violent.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Zhou Feng used a special method to forcibly extract and devour Sun Sheng¡¯s Blood Qi.


    He had the passive Perfect Transformation, which allowed him to devour everything at will.


    The formation of the Fate Wheel gave Zhou Feng a kind of abnormal ability, which was to control vitality.


    While Sun Sheng¡¯s Blood Qi was being drained, the vitality in his body was quietly being drained as well.


    Although it was not obvious, it was a terrifying thing.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng discovered that Sun Sheng¡¯s Blood Qi contained a huge amount of Spiritual Qi.


    There was even a kind of mystical substance that allowed the physical body to transform.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body, which had been in a state of hunger all this time, actually got a rare satisfaction.


    This was also a point that Zhou Feng was surprised about.


    His physical body was about to transform?


    The bottleneck of the Dragon Transformation realm slowly began to loosen.


    Thereupon, Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze changed!


    It became sharper. If his gaze before was like the surface of a lake without the slightest ripple, it was like two sharp knives capable of tearing apart Sun Sheng¡¯s body.


    Gradually, Sun Sheng realized that something was wrong!


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    A wave of weakness continued to spread.


    Unknowingly, countless wounds had appeared on his body.


    Moreover, blood gushed out like a found from every wound.


    ¡®Am I going to be tortured to death?¡¯


    A strange thought surfaced in Sun Sheng¡¯s mind.


    This was an outcome that he had never thought of before.


    He was a grand Dao Enlightenment cultivator. He had the Savage Ape bloodline and a few elders in the Ascendance realm.


    How could he lose to a Divine Ability cultivator like Zhou Feng?


    ¡°That¡¯s not right!¡±


    Sun Sheng suddenly realized that Zhou Feng had already broken through to the Dragon Transformation realm.


    He didn¡¯t know when it started, but Zhou Feng¡¯s body had already transformed once.


    He had entered the Dragon Transformation realm.


    The process of breaking through was silent, like spring rain.


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    At this critical moment, a voice suddenly came from Sun Sheng¡¯s body.


    A light suddenly rose, and the aura that came with it made people involuntarily tremble.


    Ascendant!


    The projection of an Ascendant had descended!


    As expected, Sun Sheng was a super hedgehog.


    The mark on his body would begin to appear when his life was in danger.


    Perhaps it was because of this that Sun Sheng dared to come to the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    He had even destroyed all the stone steles here, leaving only the last stone stele.


    ¡°Who dares to make a move against my Savage Ape lineage!?¡±


    Although that blurry figure was only a projection, it fully displayed its dominance.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Fengyi did not care about this figure at all. He still used his Fate Wheel to forcefully extract Sun Sheng¡¯s vitality and Blood Qi and then began to feed himself.


    The Savage Ape bloodline was too strong!


    His physical body had begun to faintly transform in just a short period.

 Chapter 537 - The Fate Wheel’s Special Ability

    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    Sun Sheng gradually returned to his original appearance.


    Shame! He had inexplicably lost! This was simply a shame.


    He clearly had the advantage in all aspects, so why couldn¡¯t he win?


    This was really a very strange thing.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t perform too astonishingly from the beginning to the end. In fact, he even kept a low profile.


    Even his aura was stable, giving off a calm and indifferent feeling.


    On the other hand, Sun Sheng looked very frightening. The Savage Ape form and his violent attacks were impressive, yet Zhou Feng effortlessly ignored them.


    At this time, Sun Sheng also realized that something wasn¡¯t right.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sense of presence seemed to be a little low? But no matter what, this battle couldn¡¯t continue.


    A projection of an Ascendant could directly suppress Zhou Feng.


    In fact, the pressure that Zhou Feng was facing at this moment was great.


    The illusory figure in front of him seemed to be in control of a higher level of power.


    As soon as it appeared, the surroundings were suppressed.


    Even the circulation of the Blood Qi and spiritual power in his body became sluggish.


    This was completely different from when he was facing Sun Sheng.


    Although Sun Sheng was in the Dao Enlightenment realm and could control the power of laws to attack him, he couldn¡¯t suppress him.


    He couldn¡¯t even touch him.


    But now, Zhou Feng felt an unprecedented suppressive force.


    Was this the strength of the Ascendance realm?


    ¡°Come out!¡±


    Zhou Feng casually disregarded the projection of the Ascendant in front of him.


    Countless spirit beans grew into dao soldiers in the wind in an instant.


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng stood quietly in the same spot, and the passive Immovable Mountain was triggered.


    Soon, an endless stream of the earth¡¯s essence enveloped him.


    ¡°Not running? He¡¯s¡­¡±


    ¡°This person wants to¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude, the crowd hiding far away immediately guessed what Zhou Feng was thinking.


    He was trying to f*cking fight against the projection of a mighty figure!?


    This was simply insane!


    Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng would take advantage of the situation and then face the projection of a mighty figure.


    The best choice would be to escape quickly.


    After all, this was already quite profitable. There was no benefit in continuing to stay here.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t. Not only did he not intend to leave, but he even wanted to fight a battle of attrition.


    Did he want to grind away this projection of an Ascendant?


    Indeed, there was a time limit to the projection left with Sun Sheng.


    However, an Ascendant wasn¡¯t so easy to block.


    No one believed that Zhou Feng could withstand the attack of an Ascendant.


    Most importantly, Sun Sheng didn¡¯t only have such a projection.


    Three Ascendants had left their marks.


    This wasn¡¯t even mentioning Sun Sheng¡¯s other life-saving items.


    Therefore, no one could figure out what Zhou Feng was trying to do.


    ¡°How dare you!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude infuriated the blurry figure.


    Without even taking the initiative to attack, countless meteorites floated in the sky.


    These meteorites seemed to appear out of thin air, each containing a world-destroying aura.


    The sky was falling!


    This scene was like the arrival of the apocalypse as countless meteorites descended.


    They wanted to destroy Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body completely.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t seem to care at all.


    Instead, he started to make his earth soldier self-destruct crazily.


    A series of explosions echoed while countless meteorites descended.


    At that moment, it was as if this place had experienced a world-ending catastrophe.


    ¡°Run!¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s leave this place! This is crazy! This is really crazy!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Old Rat felt all the hair on his body stand up. This was simply a super catastrophe.


    If he continued to stay here, he would be waiting for death.


    Therefore, Old Rat chose to use the spatial teleportation talisman and leave the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Many other people shared the same thought.


    This kind of battle was not something they could participate in.


    Zhou Feng was very calm during this crazy bombardment.


    Firstly, he had the protection of the green lotus, his lifebound artifact.


    Secondly, he had the passive Immovable Mountain.


    This level alone wasn¡¯t enough to shake him.


    Sun Sheng was also unharmed.


    After all, he also had a lifebound artifact, and his body was shining with three different lights.


    These three lights represented the three Ascendants.


    ¡®The defense here should have been triggered.¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were shining with a different light.


    Sun Sheng didn¡¯t expect that Zhou Feng would want to keep him here.


    That¡¯s right!


    After tasting the benefits of the Savage Ape bloodline, a crazy thought had suddenly arisen in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    That was to keep Sun Sheng here forever.


    His body could transform several times if he could completely devour Sun Sheng.


    However, because he had the protection of Ascendants, it was impossible to do it by himself.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng thought of the defense mechanism of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    The Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum had been around until now because no force had not occupied it.


    In fact, it was because of a terrifying defense mechanism.


    Once this defense mechanism was triggered, a pair of invisible hands would wipe out everything.


    This was a secret that everyone knew.


    Because of this, many cultivators¡¯ actions were more restrained.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s idea was very simple. He wanted to activate this defensive mechanism.


    If there were a discerning person who carefully observed the surroundings, they would discover Zhou Feng¡¯s dao soldiers.


    They weren¡¯t targeting Sun Sheng but were scattered in different places.


    It was to destroy this place!


    ¡°Wait! Quickly! Let¡¯s leave this place!¡±


    At that moment, a voice suddenly sounded.


    Obviously, the mighty figure had seen through Zhou Feng¡¯s plan.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng crushed a jade talisman in the next second.


    This jade talisman was a unique one-time treasure.


    Although it had a one-time use, the effect was very good. The surrounding space was locked in an instant.


    This was something that Zhou Feng had obtained with great difficulty. His main goal was to prevent anyone from using spatial teleportation talismans to leave the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    After all, since one could use spatial teleportation talismans to leave, there must be a corresponding sealing method.


    Thus, Sun Sheng couldn¡¯t leave this place at all.


    But this thing was also very fair. Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t use the spatial teleportation talisman either.


    ¡°You! You want to perish together with me?¡±


    At that moment, Sun Sheng¡¯s entire body tensed up, and his face was extremely puzzled.


    He simply couldn¡¯t understand why Zhou Feng would do this.


    1


    If Zhou Feng did this, he wouldn¡¯t be able to escape!


    After cultivating to such a realm, how could he casually perish together with others?


    Just what was going on in his mind?


    Then, under this thought, Sun Sheng watched helplessly as Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body lost its vitality.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body instantly withered, and there was no vitality at all.


    At this moment, Zhou Feng used his Fate Wheel to gather all his vitality.


    In the eyes of others, Zhou Feng died suddenly without leaving any breath behind.


    Then, the defense mechanism of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was activated, and an invisible force swept across all the places.


    ¡°No!¡±


    At this moment, a bright light burst out from Sun Sheng¡¯s body.


    However, this bright light lasted only a few seconds before it was instantly suppressed.

 Chapter 538 - New Divine Ability! New Gold Passive Skill!

    At that moment, the defense mechanism of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was activated.


    This place, which had been stepped upon by countless people, finally displayed its terror.


    At that moment, all the people in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum were eradicated.


    Even Sun Sheng that was protected by a few Ascendants was unable to survive.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Before he died, Sun Sheng let out a desperate roar.


    Unfortunately, it was useless.


    After a long time, Zhou Feng¡¯s body moved slightly.


    Vitality filled his body again, and his withered and dead body instantly came back to life.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    He felt some changes in his hands.


    A thick smell of blood kept coming out of Zhou Feng¡¯s hands while distorted wails echoed.


    ¡®Is it the passive skill, Human Slayer?¡¯


    Zhou Feng immediately thought of this passive skill.


    After killing 10,000 targets, the passive Human Slayer would naturally form a strange phenomenon.


    Now, his hands had formed such a strange phenomenon.


    Countless vengeful souls were wailing on his hands.


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng¡¯s damage had also increased by 10,000 points.


    What kind of concept was an increase of 10,000 points of damage? Zhou Feng did not really understand.


    However, he felt that his strength had already achieved a substantial breakthrough.


    ¡°The passivity of an unlimited increase! The power of unlimited expansion!¡±


    Zhou Feng only felt that he had become calmer.


    He was not as excited as he had imagined.


    If it was said that his emotions fluctuated upon transmigrating here, his emotions seemed to have become fixed now.


    He had become extremely indifferent.


    Normally, there would be almost no fluctuations in his emotions.


    Only when he obtained a passive skill would he be happy for a while.


    But now, he was not even in the mood to be happy.


    ¡°Is it the longevity substances?¡±


    Zhou Feng recalled the change in his mood.


    It seemed that his mood had become too stable ever since he discovered the longevity substances.


    The situation had become even more serious after his rebirth.


    So, this was what he had to face when walking on the path of immortality?


    At that moment, he could feel why Heavenly Venerate Longevity had chosen to commit suicide in the end.


    Zhou Feng was at the starting point, yet he felt that he had become a wooden figure.


    Then, after experiencing what Heavenly Venerate Longevity had experienced for countless years, the situation would probably become even more serious.


    The disappearance of emotions seemed to be a kind of wear and tear.


    If there was no way to get customer service, Zhou Feng might not be able to endure it.


    The simplest explanation was that he would be too bored. Thus, he would need something to stimulate or find some fun for himself.


    That way, he could have emotional fluctuations and not become an emotionless wooden figure.


    But there was one thing that could not be ignored¡ªonce he had emotional attachments, the road to immortality would become particularly bumpy.


    After all, not everyone had Zhou Feng¡¯s cheat.


    ¡®I¡¯d better harvest the spoils of war first!¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment. He would pick his spoils first and then think about other things.


    That¡¯s right! Now was the time for him to harvest.


    By relying on his Fate Wheel to restrain his vitality, he successfully faked his death to avoid the defense mechanism of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    He indirectly killed all the people in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    Except for a portion of the cultivators who used spatial teleportation talismans, most of the cultivators had suddenly died.


    This was also why the passive Human Slayer had broken through 10,000 stacks in an instant.


    Zhou Feng immediately set his eyes on the stone tablet in the center.


    This was the only stone tablet that had been preserved, and it seemed to contain a top-tier divine ability¡ªMountain-Pushing and Sea-Filling.


    ¡°What divine ability is this?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw the name of this divine ability, he immediately frowned.


    There was a very simple sentence that introduced this divine ability.


    ¡°Push down the mountain! Fill up the sea!¡±


    There were only eight simple words.


    However, Zhou Feng could feel an endless power.


    That¡¯s right! This was a divine ability that increased strength in all directions.


    As long as one cultivated to the deepest part, one could push down a mountain and fill up a sea with a raise of their hand.


    It was that simple and overbearing!


    And this divine ability was once the Eastern King¡¯s innate divine ability.


    By relying on this divine ability, the Eastern King managed to traverse the Eastern Land and even leave behind such a terrifying mausoleum.


    Unfortunately, this divine ability was simply too difficult.


    It was so difficult that no one could learn it, even those with the Eastern King¡¯s bloodline.


    There was still no way to master this divine ability.


    During these thousands of years, countless cultivators had come here intending to learn this divine ability, but nobody had accomplished it.


    ¡°Pushing down mountains and filling the seas? This seems to involve the laws of the Physical Dao?¡±


    Zhou Feng was comprehending the mysteries of this divine ability.


    This divine ability seemed to touch upon the Physical Dao, which was somewhat similar to Human Emperor Pan¡¯s system.


    In order to pursue the Physical Dao, the most basic condition was to have a spirit that could swallow mountains and rivers.


    A state of mind that used power to break everything.


    Although the Physical Dao was far from the high-end of Spacetime Dao, it was the most terrifying great Dao, and only the purest monsters could comprehend it.


    The power that could destroy everything was unique to the Physical Dao!


    In history, there seemed to be only a few people who could comprehend the Physical Dao.


    Human Emperor Pan and the Eastern King were the two of the people Zhou Feng knew.


    In terms of comprehending the Dao, even if the AI could help, it would be of little use.


    This was a very wondrous and mysterious domain, yet Zhou Feng had touched upon it!


    That¡¯s right! He had just taken a glance and entered it directly.


    This was because Zhou Feng did not lack confidence, nor did he lack the aura that could swallow mountains and rivers.


    Ever since he had condensed the Longevity bloodline, Zhou Feng had become extremely confident.


    Since he could even condense the Longevity bloodline, learning a divine ability was nothing.


    It was precisely because of this mentality that he had entered the door in an instant.


    Zhou Feng clenched his fists, and an aura that could sweep across the world appeared.


    His raw strength, Blood Qi, soul power, and so on had doubled out of thin air!


    This was because he had successfully controlled a trace of the laws of the Physical Dao and then added it to his own strength.


    Pushing down mountains and filling the seas!


    Was this really a top-tier divine ability?


    It was too terrifying!


    After learning this top-tier divine ability, a trace of joy appeared in his heart, and then it disappeared.


    ¡°The progress bar should be full!¡±


    Zhou Feng opened the skill panel again.


    Sure enough, the progress bar on the skill panel was full.


    The gathered destiny power was far beyond the standard, so he should be able to draw a gold passive skill, right?


    Lo and behold, the panel was shining with a golden luster!


    It seemed that he had not drawn a gold passive for a long time!


    Could this be considered a double blessing?


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    ¡°Drawing in progress¡­¡±


    ¡°Draw successful!¡±


    ¡®This¡­ This new passive¡­¡¯


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had seen such a passive. This seemed to involve the laws!

 Chapter 539 - Bleeding

    Bleeding: There is a chance your attack will cause the opponent to bleed.


    The bleeding effect is related to the Dao of Blood. The deeper your understanding of the Dao of Blood, the higher the chance of bleeding.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng never thought that he would actually draw out such a passive skill.


    As long as he attacked the enemy, there was a chance of bleeding.


    Moreover, it was linked to the Dao of Blood. As long as he deeply understood the Dao of Blood, the chance of bleeding would be greatly increased.


    What an overbearing passive skill!


    As long as this passive skill was triggered during battle, the enemy would bleed for no reason.


    One had to know that that was the effect of a passive skill. It was secretive and bizarre, so nobody would be on guard at all against it.


    That was not the most crucial point, however.


    Zhou Feng had already fantasized about it.


    In the future, he would be able to draw many passive skills similar to Bleeding.


    When he punched down, countless abnormal effects would affect the opponent.


    Wasn¡¯t this invincible?


    As Zhou Feng fantasized about it, a trace of the law of blood descended and completely fused into his body.


    ¡°It¡¯s enough! This is completely enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t plan to stay here any longer.


    The Mountain-Pushing and Sea-Filling and passive Bleeding had already increased his strength to an unimaginable extent.


    Now, he could put his plan in motion.


    Wasn¡¯t the Daemon League moving a Spiritual Vein?


    How could Zhou Feng miss such a good opportunity for revenge?


    ¡°I need to find something exciting too!¡±


    Zhou Feng had realized that his personality was becoming more and more indifferent due to the longevity substances, so he needed to find some passion so that his emotions wouldn¡¯t slowly disappear.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng used the space teleportation talisman and left the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    However, what he didn¡¯t know was that the atmosphere in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground had reached a suffocating level.


    This was because too many people had died in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    There was also the Savage Ape bloodline.


    Just now, two Ascendants were already suppressing this place.


    They wanted to investigate what had happened here.


    Furthermore, they knew that before Sun Sheng had died, he had probably been fighting with someone.


    ¡°DEAD! All dead! Everyone in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum is dead!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know why the defense mechanism of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum was triggered.¡±


    ¡°As long as they stay in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum, no one will be spared.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    This was the result of the investigation.


    This was also the outcome that countless people couldn¡¯t accept.


    ¡°Impossible!¡±


    ¡°Absolutely impossible!¡±


    The two gigantic bodies, like pillars supporting the sky, let out thunderous rumbling sounds.


    These two Ascendants with the Savage Ape bloodline simply couldn¡¯t accept that their descendant had died here for no reason.


    The Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum had long since been investigated thoroughly.


    This hadn¡¯t happened for no reason.


    Someone must have deliberately triggered it, so they had to find the murderer.


    Under such high pressure, the atmosphere was extremely depressing.


    This was because these two Ascendants in front of them were not to be trifled with. Once they went crazy, even other Ascendants would be unable to suppress them.


    Many people were already cursing in their hearts.


    This had nothing to do with them. What was the point of not letting them leave!?


    That¡¯s right! These two figures just used their strength to suppress them.


    The only meaning they expressed was that they didn¡¯t care, but all of them had to find the murderer.


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    Otherwise, all of them would be buried with him.


    That was how overbearing and unreasonable those with the Savage Ape bloodline were!


    It was also under such a tense atmosphere that Zhou Feng used a spatial teleportation talisman to come out of the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum.


    In an instant, everyone¡¯s eyes were focused on Zhou Feng.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Didn¡¯t everyone in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum die?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Under normal circumstances, not a single person survived.¡±


    ¡°Then who is this person? This¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Didn¡¯t they say that the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum¡¯s defense mechanism had been inexplicably triggered?


    Hadn¡¯t everyone died? Then what did this person¡¯s appearance indicate?


    That¡¯s right! Based on the local investigations, no one in the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum could escape.


    Even if a few people escaped in advance, they were all killed. This was all to vent the anger of the two Ascendants.


    Old Rat was one of the unlucky ones that suffered the Ascendants¡¯ wrath.


    Relying on his excellent sense of danger, Old Rat escaped from the Eastern King¡¯s mausoleum in advance.


    However, in the end, he couldn¡¯t escape the blockade of the two Ascendants.


    He was crushed into a lump of flesh, and a rat even ate said lump of flesh.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance was indeed very unexpected.


    ¡°It¡¯s you? On your body!¡±


    ¡°The aura of our bloodline! How is this possible!?¡±


    The two figures above felt the scent of the Savage Ape on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    He felt two waves of pressure pressing down from above his head in an instant.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng even thought he would be pressed to the ground.


    ¡°What a coincidence!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not expect that he would be teleported there.


    However, Zhou Feng was not nervous at all. The moment he appeared, he discovered that the two huge figures in front of him were just two projections.


    They were the projections of the Ascendants.


    Although he was not the opponent of the Ascendants yet, it was still easy and enjoyable to deal with their projections.


    After thinking about it, it actually made sense.


    Sun Sheng¡¯s had fallen, and two Ascendants came to look for trouble in the next second?


    This was too much of a coincidence.


    One had to know that the Ascendants¡¯ time was quite precious.


    ¡°Two of a kind! Who are you trying to scare?¡±


    Zhou Feng was rarely talkative. Nonetheless, he provoked the two figures in front of him.


    ¡®Awesome!¡¯


    ¡°How dare you!¡±


    The other cultivators could only shout in their hearts that Zhou Feng was brave enough.


    Zhou Feng was a Dragon Transformation cultivator, yet he dared to publicly provoke two Ascendants.


    Furthermore, they were Ascendants with the Savage Ape bloodline.


    One had to know that it wasn¡¯t like there were no Ascendants in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    However, these Ascendants chose to remain silent at this moment.


    The strength of these two figures in front of them far exceeded that of ordinary Ascendants.


    The Savage Ape bloodline contained the laws of the great Dao, and its innate divine ability was the World-Destroying Power.


    That was the true power to destroy the world. Once these two figures lost their temper, they could destroy this place.


    It was precisely because of this fear that everyone was so quiet.

    ¡°That¡¯s right! Who are these two people trying to scare?¡±


    Originally, a bold and arrogant person like Zhou Feng was already touching their bottom line.


    However, they didn¡¯t expect another domineering voice to sound out.


    Who was it? Who dared to provoke two Ascendants under such circumstances?


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows as this voice seemed a little familiar.

 Chapter 540 - Enlightened!

    Xue Ji slowly descended from the sky. She wore a long black dress that looked cold and elegant. Her soft and dark hair was fixed with a golden hairpin.


    Although this dress gave people a dignified and noble feeling, it perfectly displayed Xue Ji¡¯s good figure.


    Her fair and tender skin complemented her black dress.


    Apart from that, Xue Ji¡¯s temperament had also slightly changed.


    She had become cold and aloof, and traces of arrogance unconsciously appeared.


    This was completely different from her previous style.


    ¡®It¡¯s appearing again!¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at Xue Ji, and a ripple flashed across his calm face.


    ¡°Azure Fox Clan? Why? Does your Azure Fox Clan also want to get involved in this matter?¡±


    ¡°Hmph! Your Azure Fox clan isn¡¯t qualified enough!¡±


    Xue Ji¡¯s appearance stopped the two Ascendants from going berserk.


    Although their words contained a lot of contempt for the Azure Fox clan, they were not extremely arrogant.


    The Azure Fox Clan had quite a bit of face.


    ¡°This has nothing to do with the Azure Fox Clan, but it has something to do with me!¡±


    Xue Ji came to Zhou Feng¡¯s side and expressed her attitude.


    The Azure Fox Clan naturally would not get involved in such matters.


    But Xue Ji wanted to get involved. After all, Zhou Feng was the man she had set her mind on.


    And this time, Xue Ji changed her style to test Zhou Feng.


    ¡°The effect seems to be pretty good?¡±


    Xue Ji felt Zhou Feng secretly glance at her a few more times.


    ¡®He likes this strong attitude? So that¡¯s how it is.¡¯


    1


    If they were to push it back according to the current situation, they would definitely have to say something.


    The two Ascendants there were just stalling for time.


    The two projections here weren¡¯t enough to suppress the entire scene.


    Their main bodies were still very far away.


    Only when their main bodies came here would they be able to control the situation completely.


    In fact, they had already recognized Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s reputation in the Eastern Land was not low at all. The others here might not have connected the dots yet, but Zhou Feng could be said to be a celebrity within the Daemon League.


    One had to know that many people in the easternmost region had witnessed the crazy scene of Zhou Feng transcending the heavenly tribulation.


    Moreover, he had immediately chosen to self-destruct after transcending the heavenly tribulation.


    Not only had such a ruthless person been reborn, but he didn¡¯t even seem to be weak.


    He even gave people a feeling of being unfathomable.


    This was simply too crazy!


    That was why they chose to stall for time.


    Just two projections couldn¡¯t stop Zhou Feng.


    That was why Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to continue wasting time here.


    At the same time, because he realized what he needed to experience on the road to immortality in the future, he made a move that he had never done before.


    ¡°Get out of my way!¡±


    Zhou Feng grabbed Xue Ji¡¯s slender waist and raised his right fist.


    The power to push mountains and fill seas exploded!


    At that moment, he used this divine ability that he had just learned.


    Then, many of his passive skills¡¯ effects augmented his attack.


    Zhou Feng only felt that his current state was incomparably good.


    The fist that could suppress mountains and rivers contained the essence of his cultivation.


    At the same time, the Invincible Avatar appeared.


    At that moment, everyone seemed to see a lonely invincible king fiercely throwing out a punch.


    That kind of loneliness and overbearing aura that could destroy everything suppressed countless people!


    The one who was the most surprised was undoubtedly Xue Ji.


    She had never thought Zhou Feng would suddenly be overbearing and even directly grab her waist.


    Although Xue Ji was very proactive before, she actually felt some fear in her heart when Zhou Feng became even more proactive.


    However, none of this was important.


    Zhou Feng, who was in excellent condition, smashed the two huge figures in front of him with a punch.


    The lonely figure behind Zhou Feng appeared in their place.


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    ¡°This¡­ This¡­¡±


    ¡°Monster! A real monster, a mere Dragon Transformation¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    This scene was too shocking.


    Although the two huge figures in front of him were only Ascendant projections, they were still Ascendant projections!


    Even ordinary Ascendants didn¡¯t dare to take the initiative to attack.


    Yet, Zhou Feng directly destroyed these two figures with a punch.


    This could only be done with absolute strength suppression.


    With this deduction, didn¡¯t Zhou Feng have the strength to fight with an Ascendant?


    Just a Dragon Transformation expert actually¡­


    After everything that happened, a trace of arrogance appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    It wasn¡¯t easy for him to feel a trace of hot blood in his body.


    After that, he brought Xue Ji and left the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground.


    There was no longer a need to stay in this place.


    Next, Zhou Feng needed a place to offer sacrifices to his passive Human Slayer.


    Revenge! It was also about to begin!


    In a barren land¡­


    ¡°Hey! How long do you plan to hold me?¡±


    No one else was around, so Xue Ji finally began to resist.


    Zhou Feng had been holding her waist from the beginning and had no intention of letting go.


    There was no change in Zhou Feng¡¯s expression.


    It was just that the movements of his hands began to become bigger.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Xue Ji did not expect that Zhou Feng¡¯s personality would suddenly change.


    Although Xue Ji had already chosen Zhou Feng as her man, she was not mentally prepared.


    After all, the two of them were not familiar enough.


    Wasn¡¯t this progress a little too fast?


    According to Xue Ji¡¯s original plan, she should continue to tease Zhou Feng.


    Then during this process, she would thoroughly investigate Zhou Feng¡¯s personality and other areas.


    It was as if she was cultivating a true partner.


    This was because Xue Ji knew that given Zhou Feng¡¯s personality, he wouldn¡¯t take the initiative at all.


    Moreover, he would put most of his energy into cultivation.


    In this way, Xue Ji would have a lot of time to cultivate her relationship with Zhou Feng slowly.


    Then, she would cultivate Zhou Feng into the perfect dao partner in her heart.


    This was also what the Azure Fox Clan was best at.


    But now, Zhou Feng had suddenly changed into a different person, becoming proactive and straightforward.


    ¡°Originally, my goal was to become an immortal!¡±


    Suddenly, Zhou Feng spoke of his original goal.


    Ever since he transmigrated to this world, he had lived like an ascetic cultivator.


    Almost all of his attention was placed on survival, and ever since escaping from the Tri-Gu Sect, he hadn¡¯t relaxed much.


    Because of this experience, he became more and more silent.


    No matter what he faced, he was very calm and silent.


    Under normal circumstances, he would continue like this and encounter the same predicament as Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Longevity would become a curse, and his emotions would be wiped clean.


    Zhou Feng did not want to continue like this.


    Thus, he had a new goal.


    ¡°But now my goal is to make me and my family live forever! And then live happily ever after!¡±


    1

    Not only did he want to live forever, but he also wanted to be the strongest person.


    He wanted to open a harem! He wanted to do what he had always dreamed of before transmigrating.


    11


    It was as if Zhou Feng was enlightened in an instant.


    Since he had transmigrated to this world with a golden finger, he should enjoy his life here, not suffer.

 Chapter 541 - The Thought of Fighting the World Alone!

    Facing Zhou Feng, who suddenly became tough, Xue Ji actually didn¡¯t know how to resist for a moment.


    This disrupted her original plan!


    In the end, Xue Ji still couldn¡¯t resist Zhou Feng, whose personality had changed, and signed the Azure Fox Contract with Zhou Feng.


    The Azure Fox Contract was the foundation of the Azure Fox Clan.


    Under normal circumstances, once it was formed, it was equivalent to an eternal contract.


    From today onward, Xue Ji would be completely bound to Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s own destiny would be split, but Zhou Feng would receive Xue Ji¡¯s dowry, a large number of cultivation resources, and countless cultivation secrets.


    The Azure Fox Clan was able to continue until now because of its excellent supporting role.


    And most importantly, the first dual cultivation technique could help Zhou Feng gain enlightenment.


    ¡°You should familiarize yourself with this dual cultivation technique first!¡±


    After signing the Azure Fox Contract, Xue Ji became a little shy. She didn¡¯t look like she was completely open like before.


    Zhou Feng obtained a dual cultivation technique with two parts, and what he had now was the first part.


    ¡°Also, you must come to the Azure Fox Clan after reaching the Dao Enlightenment realm!¡±


    Xue Ji suddenly handed him a bunch of things before she quickly turned around and left.


    Zhou Feng was slightly stunned. He waited for Xue Ji to leave for some time before he reacted.


    ¡°This feels pretty good!¡±


    He adjusted his state of mind.


    It just so happened that Zhou Feng also needed some time to get used to it. If he had an additional partner in the future, how should he cultivate?


    He would no longer be the lone wolf from before.


    And he also needed to be well-prepared before heading to the Azure Fox Clan.


    From Xue Ji¡¯s attitude, it did not seem easy to enter.


    Wanting to snatch Xue Ji from the Azure Fox Clan seemed to be a relatively difficult matter.


    Fortunately, he did not need to worry about cultivation resources for the time being.


    Zhou Feng had obtained countless cultivation resources from Xue Ji.


    This was the dowry that Xue Ji had accumulated for a long time.


    ¡°Am I living off a woman?¡±


    He touched the storage ring in his hand and had a strange feeling in his heart.


    Then, his thoughts started wandering, and he thought of the few women he had met.


    It seemed that he had already provoked many peach blossoms before Xue Ji.


    Forget it!


    Zhou Feng forced himself not to think about those things.


    If he wanted to live forever and be free and unrestrained in the world, he would need to rely on his strength.


    Without power, it was simply impossible to talk about being free and unrestrained.


    He would focus on increasing his strength again.


    Now, his cultivation resources should be enough to allow his physical body to transform to the 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm.


    ¡°Dao Enlightenment realm! I seem to need to go through another heavenly tribulation this time!¡±


    He frowned slightly.


    Perhaps he could make use of this heavenly tribulation to make a big deal.


    Zhou Feng was actually very interested in the Spiritual Vein that the Daemon League was transporting.


    That was a Spiritual Vein!


    As long as he obtained the Spiritual Vein, he would be able to create a small world.


    Perhaps he could snatch a few Spiritual Veins and make arrangements for his future farming life?


    Since Zhou Feng did not plan to be alone, it would not be too bad to find a suitable place to farm after reaching the peak.


    1


    Of course, the most important thing was that he wanted to stack the passive Human Slayer.


    How far could this passive skill go?


    ¡­


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    Transporting the Spiritual Vein was the second most important matter of the Daemon League.


    Apart from sending out the Ascendants, countless geniuses were also following them.


    The entire scene looked extremely grand as if they feared others wouldn¡¯t know.


    Such a grand formation naturally attracted countless covetous people.


    Actually, the Daemon League had no way to deal with this because this Spiritual Vein wasn¡¯t an ordinary one.


    It was a huge Spiritual Vein that was about to turn into a Dragon Vein.


    It had even given birth to spiritual wisdom. If not for the fact that spiritual wisdom had just been born, it would be impossible for the Daemon League to capture it.


    Moreover, the factions in the Central Plains seemed to have noticed this.


    Therefore, the Daemon League had announced they¡¯d be transporting a rare vein and training their geniuses along the way, which was why they made such a big fuss.


    In fact, it was just to cover their tracks.


    In order to make it more realistic, the Daemon League really didn¡¯t dare to send out their strongest combatants.


    ¡°Hey, Hey! Have you heard? That madman seems to have appeared!¡±


    ¡°What? You mean the madman who self-detonated?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I heard that not only did that madman resurrect, but he also became even more terrifying.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Although the matter of moving the Spiritual Vein sounded grand, it was a very boring matter for most people.


    Therefore, many people began to gossip.


    Among them, the one who was mentioned the most was naturally Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng was already very famous within the Daemon League.


    After all, his body had undergone nine transformations in a short period, and he had even broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    No matter how one looked at it, he was a monster among monsters.


    Of course, there was also Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance and his Longevity Constitution.


    This special constitution would set off a frenzy every time it appeared.


    This was because this special constitution was an ancient medicine that could prolong one¡¯s life.


    Those old monsters whose lifespans had dried up had all gone crazy, to find traces of Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng might not know how much the other cultivators in the outside world desired his flesh and blood.


    It was because he had appeared in the Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground, which had almost been razed to the ground.


    That¡¯s right! The Eastern King¡¯s forbidden ground, which had existed for countless years, was now in ruins.


    No cultivator dared to stay there.


    Other than the Savage Ape Clan, the craziest ones were those old monsters that hadn¡¯t appeared for many years.


    Those old monsters were now searching for Zhou Feng to extend their lives.


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! This person still dares to appear!¡±


    ¡°I wonder if those old monsters that won¡¯t live for long are looking for him.¡±


    ¡°Actually, I was also shocked. Since when did the eastern land have so many Ascendants?¡±


    ¡°This is really ridiculous! Those old monsters really know how to cheat!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    These words all fell into Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    Not long ago, Zhou Feng had blended into this team.


    He had also obtained many pieces of information, the most important of which was his current situation.


    ¡®More than a dozen Ascendants are looking for me?¡¯


    For some reason, not only did he not feel a trace of fear, but he even felt his entire body burning up.


    ¡®If I could kill all of these people, all of them would become my rations.¡¯

    Although Zhou Feng had forcefully condensed the Longevity bloodline, it was still in its embryonic form. It hadn¡¯t been truly perfected.


    Zhou Feng needed more longevity substances! More resources!


    Pursuing the path of immortality could not be accomplished by just one person in seclusion.


    He needed motivation! He needed pressure!


    And now was a great opportunity.

 Chapter 542 - The Price of Acting Cool

    Although Zhou Feng had a very crazy idea in his mind at this time, he didn¡¯t act rashly.


    Instead, he cautiously and carefully continued to plan.


    Without the chance to be reborn, he naturally chose the escape route at the first moment.


    Before going crazy, he had to think of a way to escape from the pursuit of an ¦¡scendant.


    From the beginning until now, Zhou Feng had always been reckless but careful.


    Every time he was about to act crazily, he would secretly plan a way out.


    Just as Zhou Feng was thinking of an escape route, an accident happened to the Spiritual Vein transportation team at the back.


    A huge dragon statue carved out of jade was constantly shaking.


    The surrounding Spiritual Qi began to churn, and strands of Spiritual Qi that were so dense they had turned into a physical body kept spreading.


    That¡¯s right!


    This jade dragon statue was actually a Spiritual Vein, but it was currently sealed with a special method.


    Even so, this Spiritual Vein that gave birth to spiritual wisdom was still resisting crazily.


    As long as one was a little closer to the Spiritual Vein, they could feel that incomparable gravity.


    There was also that terrifying Spiritual Qi that was enough to support a holy land.


    The most troublesome thing was that this Spiritual Vein had a very close connection with the underground Qi.


    Once it landed, it was like water melting into the ground without a trace.


    It was even more impossible to store it in a storage ring!


    No storage ring could withstand the pressure of a huge Spiritual Vein.


    Therefore, the Daemon League could only use the most primitive method to move the Spiritual Vein¡ªthat was to use a carriage to pull it slowly.


    A huge carriage that was forged with refined iron was moving forward bit by bit.


    There were deep marks on the ground.


    Because of the terrifying Spiritual Qi leaking out of the Spiritual Vein, none of the formations could be used.


    This was similar to the anti-demon domain, which also had its own defensive measures.


    Even if a cultivator wanted to circulate Spiritual Qi, it was a very difficult thing.


    Therefore, the Daemon League could only move it bit by bit throughout the whole process.


    They even needed to be on guard against those fanatics at all times.


    Perhaps no one in the easternmost region dared to provoke the Daemon League.


    But in the outside world, those fanatics would not be so well-behaved.


    In just a few days, countless vagabond cultivators had already charged against the Daemon League¡¯s team.


    However, until now, no one had been able to rush to the side of the Spiritual Vein.


    ¡°This is a Spiritual Vein that gave birth to spiritual wisdom? Your Daemon League hid it well!¡±


    ¡°Do you think that your Daemon League is destined to have it?¡±


    ¡°How can your Daemon League possess such a spiritual item?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just as the Daemon League¡¯s plan was going smoothly, a few voices rang out.


    These voices revealed the truth that the Daemon League was hiding.


    At the same time, they had the intention of fanning the flames.


    All of this happened very suddenly. It was unknown to whom these voices belonged.


    However, these words stirred the hearts of many people.


    A huge Spiritual Vein? A Spiritual Vein that gave birth to spiritual wisdom?


    Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to a Dragon Vein that was transforming?


    Controlling a Dragon Vein?


    This¡­


    In an instant, the hearts of many cultivators began to beat wildly.


    This was because apart from the endless supply of Spiritual Qi, the Dragon Vein was also equivalent to a Spiritual Vein of destiny.


    It contained supreme destiny power.


    If one buried this Dragon Vein in their ancestral lands, the path of cultivation would be smooth sailing.


    ¡°Who is it! Come out if you have the guts!¡±


    ¡°A stray dog that only dares to hide in the shadows dares to provoke our Daemon League!¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    The Daemon League¡¯s reaction was also extremely fast.


    A youth directly soared into the sky.


    That arrogant voice contained towering killing intent.


    Song Mingze knew that this was his chance to show off.


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    At this time, the Daemon League couldn¡¯t back down at all. They had to show a tough stance.


    Only then would they be able to intimidate the wild dogs around them.


    Moreover, the person who stood out couldn¡¯t be an ¦¡scendant.


    An ¦¡scendant in the dark was the biggest threat.


    Thus, as a genius of the Daemon League, he stood out resolutely.


    As long as he could hold on, he would be able to gain the appreciation of the many ¦¡scendants behind him.


    ¡°Hmph! Let me see how much you are capable of!¡±


    It was as if he was maintaining an unspoken rule.


    Those vagabond cultivators who coveted the Spiritual Vein also sent a Dao Enlightenment cultivator to probe.


    And those ¦¡scendants were like old silver coins, hiding and waiting for the best opportunity to strike.


    Along with the voice, a sword light appeared.


    This sword light appeared suddenly before Song Mingze.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    But at this time, Song Mingze¡¯s reaction was also very fast.


    His eyes seemed to be dyed with purple light as he let out an angry roar.


    An illusion appeared, and a purple-eyed golden lion roared toward the sky.


    The roar instantly shattered that sword light.


    ¡°Purple-Eyed Golden Lion bloodline?¡±


    ¡°As expected of Senior Brother Song!¡±


    ¡°So strong!¡±


    Song Mingze¡¯s performance encouraged the people of the Daemon League because he only used a roar to finish off his opponent.


    After the sword light disappeared, a man in black fell from the sky to the ground.


    He died from bleeding from his seven orifices!


    If someone were to dissect this person¡¯s corpse, they would be able to see it very clearly.


    This person¡¯s internal organs had been completely shattered.


    Too strong!


    As expected of the famous genius of the Daemon League that carried the Purple-Eyed Golden Lion bloodline. Other than the Golden Lion Roar, there was also a pair of purple eyes.


    ¡°It¡¯s done!¡±


    Upon seeing that everyone around him seemed to be intimidated by him, Song Mingze¡¯s heart instantly calmed down.


    He had made the right bet!


    It wasn¡¯t in vain for him to use all his strength to defeat this person in front of him in an instant.


    This was truly a matter that was a sure win without a loss.


    He had many ¦¡scendants backing him from the Daemon League, so his life was absolutely not in danger.


    If he didn¡¯t perform well, he would at most withdraw.


    However, his current performance had already displayed his strength. It could be said that Song Mingze had already made a profit.


    He didn¡¯t see the other geniuses of the Daemon League, but a trace of regret appeared on their faces.


    Song Mingze had stolen such a good opportunity.


    However, Song Mingze was still very careful now. His pair of purple eyes circled him, afraid that he would make a fool of himself later.


    ¡°Who else? You wild dogs are only fit to pick up corpses in the wild!¡±


    Under his extreme vigilance, Song Mingze did not give up the opportunity to show off on the surface.


    That look of vilifying the heavens and the earth was really interesting at this moment.


    The scene immediately quieted down. Even those vagabond Ascendants causing trouble behind the scenes did not speak again.


    1


    Seeing this, Song Mingze narrowed his eyes, feeling a little proud in his heart.


    He finally seized the opportunity to show off ruthlessly.


    But in the next second, the situation suddenly changed.


    1


    That terrifying power that could topple mountains and overturn seas suddenly appeared!


    Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World . Site Only


    Other than that, there was also the smell of blood. At that moment, the surroundings seemed to have fallen into an illusion of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.


    Zhou Feng suddenly appeared and threw a punch at Song Mingze.


    2


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Song Mingze¡¯s eyes widened, and his whole body tensed up.

 Chapter 543 - Save Me!

    Zhou Feng chose this time to make a sudden move.


    Actually, it wasn¡¯t because he wanted to steal the limelight, but because Song Mingze had given him a great opportunity.


    Before this, Song Mingze and the others had been standing firmly in various positions.


    A formation had formed in the dark, tightly surrounding the Spiritual Vein statue in the center.


    Even the auras of these people were connected.


    Before this, anyone who wanted to get close to the Spiritual Vein would have to pay a heavy price.


    However, Song Mingze suddenly appeared and broke the formation in an instant.


    This caused the formation to have a flaw.


    However, as long as Song Mingze was fine and returned to his original position as soon as possible, this wouldn¡¯t be a big deal.


    The most important thing was that the Daemon League had more than 10 Ascendants.


    /


    No one would be stupid enough to provoke the Ascendants of the Daemon League under such circumstances.


    Even the vagabond Ascendants only dared to test the waters as carefully as before.


    However, Zhou Feng had seized this opportunity.


    ¡°Courting death!?¡±


    Song Mingze was in a state of shock and anger.


    ¡®Do you know how it feels to have more than 10 Ascendants as your backers!?¡¯


    However, Song Mingze soon felt that something was wrong.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch, which was like an avalanche and tsunami, seemed to be too terrifying.


    He actually felt like he was being crushed.


    Song Mingze¡¯s bloodline power was activated crazily, and a lion¡¯s roar spread out.


    Even so, Song Mingze still received the punch, and his crushing body left a crater on the ground.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Song Mingze let out an unwilling roar.


    It was over!


    He only knew that he had become a clown.


    Originally, he only wanted to show off in front of the bigshots.


    But who knew that he could only act cool for a second?


    In the next second, he was sent flying by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    Moreover, it was the crushing type. The most miserable thing was that Song Mingze felt that the person who had attacked him was only in the Dragon Transformation realm.


    He hadn¡¯t even begun to comprehend the great Dao.


    Wasn¡¯t this embarrassing?


    It was also because of this that Song Mingze wanted to be a tough guy.


    As he roared, he wanted to stand up and counterattack immediately.


    He wanted to let everyone know that what happened just now was just an accident.


    And although Song Mingze¡¯s body was fractured in many places, he really jumped up at the first moment.


    Therefore, from the perspective of others, Zhou Feng had only managed to punch Song Mingze into the ground because he suddenly ambushed him.


    ¡°It¡¯s him!?¡±


    ¡°Zhou Feng! It¡¯s him!¡±


    ¡°That madman!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Song Mingze, who had just jumped up, heard the exclamation.


    ¡®Zhou Feng? Who¡¯s Zhou Feng?¡¯ Song Mingze didn¡¯t react for a moment. ¡®Why does this name sound so familiar?¡¯


    But in the next second, he reacted.


    ¡®Isn¡¯t it that madman¡¯s name!?!?¡¯


    To be honest, Song Mingze wasn¡¯t the only one who was surprised. Everyone present was flabbergasted.


    Zhou Feng had actually appeared in such a place, and it seemed like he was going to cause trouble for the Daemon League.


    Although Zhou Feng was very famous in the easternmost region, there were quite a few people who had their eyes on him.


    As mentioned earlier, many old foxes had left seclusion because of Zhou Feng¡¯s existence.


    Those old foxes who had run out of years of life couldn¡¯t wait to eat his flesh, just so they could live a few more years.


    According to normal people¡¯s thinking, Zhou Feng¡¯s best choice should be to hide well.


    He should only come out after ensuring his safety.


    Now, he was looking for trouble with the Daemon League?


    Come on! There were more than a dozen Ascendants here.


    Wasn¡¯t Zhou Feng giving his head away by doing this?


    The last time Zhou Feng had faced an Ascendant, he had been ruthless enough to self-destruct before escaping directly.


    Could it be that Zhou Feng thought that his rebirth trick could take effect again?


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    At that moment, Song Mingze also thought Zhou Feng was here to deliver his head.


    ¡°I¡ª¡±


    Song Mingze realized that something seemed to have happened to him.


    The wounds on his body actually showed no signs of healing.


    Instead, they were crazily oozing out blood and didn¡¯t even intend to stop.


    The passive Bleeding had been triggered!


    This was the first time Zhou Feng had triggered this passive skill.


    Song Mingze wasn¡¯t in a very good state, to begin with.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch was the pinnacle of his punches. Not only did it have all kinds of passive effects, but it also carried the passive Human Slayer¡¯s invisible phenomenon.


    Now, the sudden bleeding made him even more stupefied.


    Who could explain it! Why was he bleeding all of a sudden?


    And it was the kind that didn¡¯t stop bleeding!


    However, Song Mingze probably didn¡¯t expect that other than the punch, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t pay attention to him.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s opponents were the Ascendants in the dark.


    Countless pairs of eyes were staring at Zhou Feng, and he found it difficult to withstand that invisible pressure.


    It was as if he was alone in the wilderness, being targeted by countless wolves.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng had made his preparations.


    ¡°Tribulation!¡±


    Because he had experienced it before, Zhou Feng entered the state of enlightenment this time.


    That¡¯s right!


    He would transcend the tribulation in front of so many Ascendants and break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Only Zhou Feng dared to do such an important thing as transcending the tribulation.


    After all, for a cultivator, trying to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm was something that could only happen a few times in their entire life.


    If something unexpected happened, the lightest outcome would be the loss of their cultivation base, and the most serious would be the loss of even their ashes.


    Therefore, any cultivator who tried to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm would definitely choose an excellent location and have the protection of their elders.


    Only then would they be able to break through safely to the greatest extent.


    However, Zhou Feng was going through the tribulation in such a dangerous situation.


    Doing so was equivalent to a narrow escape.


    ¡°A real madman!¡±


    ¡°I finally understand why this person is called a madman!¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s not just a madman. He¡¯s clearly a lunatic!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Doing so naturally scared countless people.


    However, they really couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng.


    Attack Zhou Feng while facing the heavenly tribulation?


    Just try to act and see whether the heavenly tribulation would strike or not.


    Even the Ascendants didn¡¯t dare to provoke the heavenly tribulation.


    ¡°Not good! The Spiritual Vein!


    ¡°This madman¡¯s target is the Spiritual Vein!¡±


    Suddenly, a slightly ethereal voice exposed Zhou Feng¡¯s intentions.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng¡¯s target had always been the Spiritual Vein.


    Unfortunately, it was already too late.


    The rolling heavenly thunder directly descended, and the entire world seemed to have been split open.


    Everyone had no choice but to pull away from Zhou Feng.


    However, the Spiritual Vein couldn¡¯t run that fast.


    A cracking sound rang out as the Daemon League¡¯s seal on the Spiritual Vein shattered.


    ¡°No!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s over!¡±


    The Ascendants hiding in the dark were enraged.


    Because of Zhou Feng¡¯s actions, the Daemon League¡¯s plan was foiled.


    Furthermore, the secret they had been keeping all this time seemed to be unable to be hidden anymore.

    Just as everyone was staring at the Spiritual Vein and Zhou Feng, someone used all his strength to call for help.


    ¡°S-Save me!¡±


    Song Mingze lay in a pool of blood, using his last bit of strength.


    Alas, no one noticed him.


    1

 Chapter 544 - Powerless

    It had to be said that Zhou Feng¡¯s ability to comprehend the heavenly tribulation directly was truly unexpected.


    Facing the rolling heavenly lightning, no one dared to approach.


    And this gave the Spiritual Vein with spiritual intelligence a chance.


    Once the heavenly lightning descended, half of the seal was instantly removed.


    A jade dragon immediately ascended into the sky, wanting to leave this place.


    ¡®Success!¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw this, he knew that his plan had already succeeded by more than half.


    Although he had many passive skills and his strength could no longer be measured by realm, he didn¡¯t have much confidence when facing an Ascendant.


    Not to mention more than 10 Ascendants.


    Thus, he thought of using the Spiritual Vein to draw the attention of these Ascendants.


    Now, it seemed that this strategy was very successful.


    ¡°Stop the Spiritual Vein!¡±


    A voice sounded.


    Immediately, the surrounding space began to distort.


    Something similar to a force field formed, sealing up the entire area.


    At the same time, a huge hand appeared out of thin air, grabbing the Spiritual Vein that was about to take off.


    ¡°Opportunity!¡±


    ¡°Attack!¡±


    The vagabond Ascendants in the dark immediately seized this rare opportunity.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance was beyond most people¡¯s expectations.


    At some point, Zhou Feng had actually blended into the Daemon League¡¯s team.


    Moreover, at this critical moment, he instantly killed Song Mingze the moment he appeared and then began to transcend the tribulation on the spot.


    In the end, the seal on the Spiritual Vein loosened.


    Most of the Daemon League¡¯s forces were needed to suppress the Spiritual Vein again.


    Therefore, in the eyes of those vagabond Ascendants, this was a huge flaw.


    As a result, the scene became chaotic.


    Even the Daemon League didn¡¯t expect that there were so many people lurking nearby.


    But thinking about it, it made sense. The value of a huge Spiritual Vein attracted some Ascendants.


    It was really very normal.


    A super chaotic battle inevitably broke out due to Zhou Feng¡¯s intervention.


    As the instigator, Zhou Feng began to transcend the tribulation with a relaxed expression.


    The second benefit of rebirth was something he experienced at this time.


    A second chance to transcend the tribulation!


    Compared to his previous recklessness, he was calmer this time.


    He put all his heart and soul into it, intending to comprehend the legendary Dao of Longevity.


    His body and soul were indestructible!


    How could he achieve this?


    And how to avoid the problem of wear and tear?


    Countless principles of heaven and earth flowed in his heart at this moment.


    The Longevity bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body also began to change during this enlightenment and tribulation.


    It was worth mentioning that this heavenly tribulation still didn¡¯t affect him.


    Even though his physical body had turned into a piece of charcoal, his vitality was not affected while his injuries were recovering crazily.


    All of this made this seemingly powerful heavenly tribulation seem like a joke.


    On one side, a chaotic battle was taking place, while on the other side, Zhou Feng was quietly transcending the tribulation.


    Under such a miraculous scene, there was still one person who let out a desperate cry.


    ¡°Save me¡­¡±


    Song Mingze¡¯s entire body was bleeding, so he did not have the strength to move.


    Therefore, he was inevitably affected by the heavenly tribulation.


    To be able to cry out for help now, he could already be considered tenacious enough.


    Song Mingze did not expect that he did not even need a second to fall from heaven to hell.


    In the beginning, he was in high spirits and wanted to make a show of himself.


    But Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance mercilessly destroyed his beautiful dream.


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    Such a huge change made Song Mingze¡¯s state of mind collapse.


    But at the same time, he realized something, and his state of mind instantly calmed down.


    ¡°So that¡¯s how it is! Cultivation is like climbing a mountain. The first step is fake, and the most important thing is to laugh until the end!¡±


    Song Mingze recalled his past.


    He realized that he seemed to be too pleased with himself. His talent was outstanding, but he was too impatient.


    There were even times when he completely forgot the meaning of cultivation.


    Apart from cultivating to break through realms, cultivation included tempering one¡¯s state of mind.


    At that moment, Song Mingze seemed to have come to a realization.


    ¡°But it¡¯s all too late!¡±


    The more it was like this, the more desperate he became.


    Without the help of others, he could only die here.


    ¡°Trash! Quickly hide!¡±


    This voice actually belonged to his old enemy.


    Song Mingze was very surprised. At this time, the person who lent him a helping hand was his former enemy.


    This person not only sent him to a relatively safe place but also left behind a spiritual artifact to protect Song Mingze from the battle¡¯s aftershocks.


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    At this time, Song Mingze did not know what to say to describe his current mood.


    What was true friendship in times of trouble?


    Song Mingze felt that he had understood again.


    But in the next second, a person once again destroyed his state of mind.


    That¡¯s right! This person was Zhou Feng.


    Given his previous experience, Zhou Feng¡¯s tribulation this time was very smooth.


    It didn¡¯t take long for him to step into the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    He had a deeper understanding of longevity.


    Of course, the most important thing was that the laws of the great Dao once again baptized his body and soul.


    His body, which the heavenly lightning had destroyed, immediately recovered to its original state.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    After successfully breaking through to the Dao Enlightenment state, Zhou Feng did not have any thoughts of escaping.


    Instead, he went on a killing spree.


    He wanted to use this opportunity to obtain countless nutrients for himself so that he could take a step further.


    Zhou Feng knew that the others were now yearning to eat his flesh.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s attacks were extremely vicious.


    The Great Void Primordial Qi condensed into a long void spear, and he hurled it out.


    At the same time, he used the power of the Mountain-Pushing and Sea-Filling Ability to increase his strength.


    A piercing spear!


    In Song Mingze¡¯s eyes, the powerful opponent who saved him from the fire and water died instantly.


    This person could not withstand Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden attack.


    After all, his current strength was no longer the same as before.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Song Mingze¡¯s heart, which was originally like an ancient well, immediately surged with anger.


    He wanted to jump up and ask Zhou Feng, ¡°Why did you have to do this!?¡±


    From heaven to hell, then back to heaven, and then back to hell.


    This kind of roller-coaster ride made Song Mingze somewhat collapse.


    It wasn¡¯t that he didn¡¯t understand that the strong preyed on the weak among cultivators.


    However, when he became the weaker party, Song Mingze could only helplessly question Zhou Feng.


    Unfortunately, Song Mingze didn¡¯t have the chance to question Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng used another void spear to end Song Mingze¡¯s life.

    The geniuses of the Daemon League?


    Zhou Feng felt no different than slaughtering chickens and dogs.


    ¡°It¡¯s over?¡±


    Before Song Mingze¡¯s vitality was completely sucked out of his body, Song Mingze finally experienced what the people who had died at his hands had felt.


    He only felt powerless when facing such a monster.

 Chapter 545 - Fighting an Ascendant

    Zhou Feng had no idea that Song Mingze would have so many thoughts before he died.


    In his eyes, he had just casually squashed an enemy and made him one of the passive Human Slayer¡¯s sacks.


    1


    Moreover, Zhou Feng¡¯s killing spree was not over yet.


    He had again broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm and comprehended the Dao of Longevity.


    For Zhou Feng, his strength had received a huge increase.


    Because his Longevity bloodline had been perfected once again, his physical body had become even more terrifying.


    He was able to withstand the even more terrifying Great Void Primordial Qi.


    As his physical body became stronger, the power of the Great Void Primordial Qi was slowly displayed.


    A ball of Great Void Primordial Qi could be condensed into any weapon, and at the same time, it carried a trace of destruction that could penetrate almost all defenses.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng could just rely on the Great Void Primordial Qi to condense into a bow, and he could kill anyone just by standing on the spot.


    Even Dao Enlightenment cultivators were unable to resist his attacks.


    This was because the AI had already calculated the flaws of everyone present before Zhou Feng attacked.


    Then, there were all kinds of passive additions.


    One had to know that the Great Void Primordial Qi could also trigger the passive Bleeding.


    Some people resisted Zhou Feng¡¯s attack with great difficulty, but in the next second, their entire bodies began to bleed uncontrollably.


    This kind of bleeding state that appeared out of thin air without any reason defeated most of the people present.


    And every time a person died, they would become a stack to the passive Human Slayer.


    After death, the flesh and blood of the entire body would also become Zhou Feng¡¯s food.


    One¡¯s flesh and blood, vitality, and longevity substances would all be extracted and then integrated into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    All of this was accomplished with the AI¡¯s assistance.


    Now that Zhou Feng had a visualization technique, the power of his soul was greatly enhanced, which also gave the AI more room to operate.


    Previously, the AI was limited by the lack of his soul¡¯s power.


    Thus, it could only help him make deductions, analyze things, optimize techniques, and run background tasks. It could not run too many tasks.


    But now, it was completely different.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have a second person in his body.


    It helped Zhou Feng control power that he could not control.


    In just one minute, there was a river of blood.


    Countless dried corpses fell to the ground, and Zhou Feng was like a perverted murderer.


    Zhou Feng felt that his Longevity bloodline was starting to transform. The blood in his body was slightly changing as well.


    Perfect! That¡¯s right! The current situation could be described as perfect.


    His Longevity bloodline had started to become perfect because he had received so many resources.


    Also, the progress bar started to move!


    His strength was improving crazily!


    Zhou Feng believed that it wouldn¡¯t be long before obtaining a new passivity.


    A deafening voice echoed. ¡°Enough!¡±


    Obviously, this couldn¡¯t last forever.


    Zhou Feng was so impudent before because of the rioting Spiritual Vein.


    All the Ascendants of the Daemon League had gone to trap the Spiritual Vein.


    At the same time, they needed to send people to block those who coveted the Spiritual Vein.


    That was why they gave Zhou Feng the space to act as he liked.


    But seeing that Zhou Feng was going to wipe out all the geniuses of the Daemon League in one fell swoop¡ªeven those proud sons of heaven in the Dao Enlightenment realm were slaughtered like chickens and dogs¡ªan Ascendant finally made his move.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon looked at the expressionless Zhou Feng, and his eyelids twitched slightly.


    ¡®This is a monster that jumped out from there.¡¯


    At that moment, Suzerain Infernal Dragon was already cursing in his heart.


    This was because the potential and strength that Zhou Feng displayed could be described as terrifying.


    He knew that Zhou Feng had entered the easternmost region before this.


    Then, just like today, he broke through under the watchful eyes of everyone and transcended the heavenly tribulation.


    Although Zhou Feng had self-destructed in the end to escape, no one would look down on him.


    Now that Zhou Feng had reappeared, not only did he not look weak at all, but he even seemed to have become even stronger.


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body also faintly emitted an aura that could rule the world.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon was somewhat worried that Zhou Feng still had the means to be reborn.


    If that were to happen, Zhou Feng would probably return even stronger.


    It had to be said that Zhou Feng¡¯s self-destruction and rebirth technique made even Suzerain Infernal Dragon, an Ascendant, very afraid.


    ¡°Ascendance realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng only glanced at Suzerain Infernal Dragon, but his hands did not stop moving.


    He was still hunting all the surrounding cultivators.


    It seemed he did not put Suzerain Infernal Dragon in his eyes.


    But why did Zhou Feng have to listen to Suzerain Infernal Dragon?


    ¡®You said that¡¯s enough? Who are you?¡¯


    Saying such nonsense was simply a waste of time. If it were him, he would choose not to say a word and directly make a move.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s anger instantly erupted. He also wondered why he didn¡¯t directly make a move.


    ¡°Looks like my deterrence isn¡¯t enough!¡±


    At this time, Suzerain Infernal Dragon looked a little angry from embarrassment.


    He was a mighty Ascendant, so it was easy for him to deal with Zhou Feng.


    In an instant, a weird purple dragon pounced on Zhou Feng.


    Infernal Dragon! Why was he called Suzerain Infernal Dragon?


    It was because his body contained the bloodline of the Infernal Dragon, which was different from the orthodox dragon race.


    Not only did his body not lose out to a true dragon, but he also had the ability to corrode and melt.


    This strange and demonic dragon roared into the sky and tore through space.


    The Ascendance realm! This was a realm above the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    At this realm, both the physical body and the soul were in the ascendance state.


    They were all immersed in the laws of the great Dao.


    Therefore, the moment Suzerain Infernal Dragon attacked, Zhou Feng felt his physical body start to tremble. It was a suppression of the laws.


    ¡°It¡¯s coming!¡±


    It was also Zhou Feng¡¯s first time facing an Ascendant head-on.


    Although he felt the huge gap, he didn¡¯t run away.


    Instead, he calmly wanted to fight with Suzerain Infernal Dragon.


    Starseizer Steps!


    He used the Starseizer Steps to get rid of the invisible shackles and then threw a punch!


    ¡®Mountain-Pushing and Sea-Filling!¡¯


    A dull sound echoed.


    Zhou Feng felt that a part of his body had caved in.


    Following that, his body began to corrode crazily.


    The Infernal Dragon bloodline was extremely demonic.


    ¡°Hmph! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon circled around Zhou Feng.


    Without even needing to make a move, a huge dragon claw tore through the void.


    The surrounding scenery seemed to have dimmed at this moment.


    An Ascendant versus a Dao Enlightenment cultivator¡ªthe difference was this overwhelming.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng remained silent.


    At that moment, his Fate Wheel began to spin while his Blood Qi began to burn!


    Flames rose!


    These were the flames produced by the burning Blood Qi. They did not look much different from ordinary flames but were extremely glaring.

    In terms of combat, the Dao of Longevity¡¯s laws were a little weaker compared to other Daos¡¯ laws.


    After all, the Dao of Longevity mainly focused on how to survive better.


    Unless one reached Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s realm, where one¡¯s every move could completely extract the enemy¡¯s vitality.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s current methods, it was a little difficult to extract the vitality of an Ascendant directly.


    However, Zhou Feng did not shrink back because he had countless passive backers.

 Chapter 546 - Stacks: 30,000

    Zhou Feng continued to resist, and his physical body was destroyed over and over again.


    But soon, those seemingly miserable injuries would recover in the blink of an eye.


    He had broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm because he had comprehended the Dao of Longevity.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng had made great progress in recovering from his injuries.


    After all, if one wanted to live forever, one first had to reduce consumption and maintain both the physical body and the divine soul at peak condition.


    Coincidentally, the Fate Wheel existed for this reason.


    The Fate Wheel locked down Zhou Feng¡¯s vitality.


    The Fate Wheel also had a terrifying control over Blood Qi, Spiritual Qi, and so on.


    Therefore, although Zhou Feng looked miserable, he did not suffer any injuries.


    Those who cultivated the Dao of Longevity were unkillable cockroaches.


    This was also the evaluation that many cultivators gave to those who cultivated the Dao of Longevity.


    On the contrary, Suzerain Infernal Dragon felt that he was in a bad situation.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? The Dao of Blood?¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s expression began to turn serious because his body suddenly appeared to be bleeding.


    And he felt the laws of the Dao of Blood.


    It was a kind of interference of the laws of the Dao to the body.


    Fortunately, he noticed something was wrong at first and managed to control the strange bleeding state in time.


    However, this strange bleeding state still appeared from time to time.


    This was too f*cking weird!


    Other than this strange bleeding state, Suzerain Infernal Dragon also felt that Zhou Feng¡¯s attacks were getting stronger and stronger.


    There was even a force that ignored his defense and struck his body from time to time.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng¡¯s defense was also getting stronger and stronger.


    The more Zhou Feng fought, the more his passive skills played a huge role.


    For this reason, he had yet to use his lifebound artifact.


    Speaking of the green lotus, it had also begun to transform during this period.


    Zhou Feng discovered that the longevity substances seemed to have a great catalytic effect on the green lotus.


    Under normal circumstances, the green lotus would need a long time to complete its transformation.


    Zhou Feng had not nurtured the green lotus for a long time.


    Therefore, the potential of the green lotus had not been fully developed.


    However, ever since the green lotus had received the nourishment of the longevity substances, it was full of vitality and began to transform.


    While its defensive ability had greatly increased, it had also developed a purifying ability.


    It could now purify Zhou Feng¡¯s soul and make it more stable.


    It was equivalent to a function to protect the soul.


    ¡°Suzerain Infernal Dragon! Stop playing around! Those lunatics have already sensed it! Hurry up and make a move!


    ¡°The Spiritual Vein can¡¯t be suppressed any longer! Suzerain Infernal Dragon, hurry up!¡±


    At this time, a few voices reached Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s ears.


    While Suzerain Infernal Dragon and Zhou Feng were fighting, the Daemon League¡¯s side was at a disadvantage.


    The Spiritual Vein was too resolute in escaping and was even willing to abandon some of its source essence.


    This made the vagabond cultivators even crazier.


    This was the source essence of the Spiritual Vein, after all. One only needed a few drops to create a small Spiritual Vein.


    Therefore, the Daemon League urgently needed Suzerain Infernal Dragon to deal with Zhou Feng and then head back to protect the Spiritual Vein.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon couldn¡¯t help but feel a trace of impatience upon hearing this.


    ¡°Almost done! I¡¯ve played enough games!¡±


    After saying that, a ring appeared in Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s hand.


    In the next instant, the void around Zhou Feng seemed to be distorted. A true dragon roamed the nine heavens, its dragon claws intending to crush the void where Zhou Feng was completely.


    In order to get rid of Zhou Feng as soon as possible, Suzerain Infernal Dragon stopped playing around and used his trump card.


    Reverse Space!


    With the help of the Infernal Dragon Ring, Suzerain Infernal Dragon temporarily obtained the ability to distort space.


    That¡¯s right!


    After Suzerain Infernal Dragon broke through to the Ascendance realm, he immediately chose to pursue the Dao of Space.


    Then, he relied on his Ascendance body to consume a large amount of Space Sand and finally developed this killing move.


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    Originally, Suzerain Infernal Dragon wanted to keep it hidden.


    But now, he couldn¡¯t care about anything else. If anything happened to the Spiritual Vein, their leader would definitely not let him off.


    Thus, he wanted to crush Zhou Feng directly.


    Zhou Feng revealed a rare frown.


    ¡®The Starseizer Steps are actually useless?¡¯


    He felt that the space around him was getting more and more twisted.


    He felt that his entire body was about to be crushed.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    A trace of viciousness appeared on Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s face.


    Following that, Zhou Feng was like a towel as he was violently twisted together.


    His aura instantly weakened to a state where it was almost extinguished.


    Seeing this, Suzerain Infernal Dragon finally heaved a sigh of relief. He had finally gotten rid of this troublesome brat.


    But in the next second, Zhou Feng¡¯s heart pulse began to increase.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    At that moment, a trace of disbelief appeared in Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s eyes, and he even looked a little dumbfounded.


    This was because Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had recovered to its peak. His physical body emitted cracking sounds, and then it recovered to its original state.


    This was the perk of having a Fate Wheel.


    A Fate Wheel could lock any vitality. The terrifying injuries just now didn¡¯t harm Zhou Feng¡¯s vitality.


    He was able to recover from so many serious injuries slowly.


    Not to mention, he had all sorts of passive and accelerated recovery abilities.


    This was the Dao of Longevity!


    Ordinary attacks would not be able to kill cultivators cultivating the Dao of Longevity.


    This was also why Zhou Feng dared to cause trouble here after his chance of rebirth disappeared.


    It was because it was really difficult for him to die.


    ¡®The gap is too big!¡¯


    Zhou Feng began to analyze calmly.


    The strength Suzerain Infernal Dragon displayed was astonishing.


    Although he was confident that Suzerain Infernal Dragon couldn¡¯t kill him, he couldn¡¯t do anything to Suzerain Infernal Dragon either.


    It was still the same; his attacks couldn¡¯t cause much damage.


    The laws of the great Dao had completely baptized the physical body of an Ascendant.


    Normal attacks couldn¡¯t cause any trouble at all. Only the passive Bleeding and some other passive skills could occasionally cause some trouble to Suzerain Infernal Dragon.


    Hence, Zhou Feng made a decision. He turned around and ran in a direction!


    ¡°He escaped!?¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to escape so decisively.


    As such, he was stunned.


    ¡°Is it done?¡±


    ¡°Come back! Suzerain Infernal Dragon!¡±


    Initially, Suzerain Infernal Dragon wanted to chase after Zhou Feng, but a few voices rang in his ears.


    ¡®Forget it! The Spiritual Vein is more important.¡¯


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon did not want to chase after Zhou Feng.


    This was definitely not because he could not do anything to Zhou Feng. Protecting the Spiritual Vein was more important than chasing after Zhou Feng.


    However, Suzerain Infernal Dragon did not know that his decision would make him extremely regretful in the near future.


    This was because Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t really running away.


    Instead, he was going to start a massacre!


    He was going to stack his passive HUman Slayer crazily and then try to kill an Ascendant.


    Moreover, the progress bar was almost full.


    Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World . Site Only


    It was just enough to draw a new passive.


    Thus, the other members of the Daemon League, including the vagabond cultivators in this chaotic battle, were all unlucky.


    Zhou Feng could contend against an Ascendant, so slaughtering those below the Ascendance realm was an effortless task.


    In the process of the frenzied massacre, Zhou Feng¡¯s spiritual power unknowingly began to turn scarlet red.


    This was the passive Human Slayer¡¯s effect! It had accumulated 30,000 stacks already!

 Chapter 547 - Astonishment

    Zhou Feng felt a very obvious change when the passive Human Slayer¡¯s stacks reached 30,000. It was as if he could hear the sound of thunder in his ears as he breathed.


    This kind of direct increase in attack power seemed to be all-encompassing.


    There was also the thick smell of blood. Even if he tried his best to restrain it, he couldn¡¯t cover up that terrifying smell of blood.


    ¡°My body and My soul¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was very surprised to find that he seemed to have broken through some sort of bottleneck.


    After the crazy slaughter, countless people became his food.


    Originally, he should have reached some sort of bottleneck.


    After all, his cultivation was only at the Dao Enlightenment realm. His body and soul would be affected by the realm, and it would be difficult to advance an inch!


    But now, not only did Zhou Feng not feel that he was being hindered, but he also felt that his physical body was becoming smoother and smoother, while his soul was becoming more and more mysterious.


    He was far from reaching his limit!


    ¡°My aptitude seems to have increased quite a bit¡­ Wait a minute!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng suddenly recalled that he seemed to have gained a passive skill that could steal one¡¯s aptitude.


    Talent Plundering: You will receive a certain amount of cultivation talent for every opponent you kill.


    [Note: The cultivation talent is divided into physical talent and soul talent.]


    ¡°F*ck! It¡¯s this passive skill!¡¯


    Zhou Feng had accumulated 54 passive skills, so he somewhat forgot some of the less active passive skills.


    Actually, he hadn¡¯t forgotten about it. He just hadn¡¯t noticed it.


    Some passive skills wouldn¡¯t work normally, and they didn¡¯t have such a great sense of existence.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng only remembered the passive skills that he often triggered.


    Although the passive Talent Plundering¡¯s sense of existence wasn¡¯t strong before, it showcased how heaven-defying it was today.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had killed countless cultivators, and among them were numerous talented geniuses.


    Each cultivator provided a certain percentage of talent.


    This caused Zhou Feng¡¯s physical aptitude and soul aptitude to become extremely high.


    Aptitude!


    No matter how many ordinary people counterattacked, no matter how many people became great late bloomers, aptitude was the most basic thing on the path of cultivation.


    The higher the aptitude, the higher the upper limit, and the easier it was to achieve breakthroughs.


    Prodigies could simply breathe in and out Spiritual Qi, while an ordinary person could only draw in a wisp of Spiritual Qi.


    The difference between the two was not something that could be made up with hard work.


    Zhou Feng had been at a disadvantage because his aptitude was too low.


    He had been forced to rely on all sorts of passive skills and constantly use desperado tactics.


    In the end, he had transformed from an ordinary mortal to a great cultivator that possessed the Longevity bloodline.


    Because of the existence of the Longevity bloodline, Zhou Feng¡¯s aptitude had already been continuously transformed under the influence of the longevity substances.


    As long as he transformed for a long enough time, his aptitude wouldn¡¯t lose to most geniuses.


    However, the passive skill to steal aptitudes had directly installed a super accelerator for Zhou Feng.


    Even Zhou Feng himself didn¡¯t know what level his aptitude had reached now.


    In any case, Zhou Feng only slightly circulated the Blood Qi in his body, and a series of thunderclaps began to ring out continuously.


    The power of the soul was also unfathomable.


    What was hacking?


    Zhou Feng had accumulated so many passive skills, and these heaven-defying passive skills were finally beginning to give him feedback.


    The passive Human Slayer had reached 30,000 stacks!


    Stealing talent allowed Zhou Feng¡¯s talent to reach a monstrous level.


    While Zhou Feng was feeling the madness of hacking, the Spiritual Vein finally couldn¡¯t withstand the encirclement of so many Ascendants and shattered!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt what heaven¡¯s gift rain was!


    Drops of spirit liquid descended from the sky, and this area began to attract countless animals.


    A commotion! This happened!


    The spirit liquid only dropped to the ground, and the originally slightly barren land was immediately revived.


    Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks


    A large number of trees grew, and some small insects also seized the opportunity.


    One by one, they began to absorb the spiritual liquid and began to transform.


    Such a scene was like a whale falling down on all living things.


    The destruction of a super-great Spiritual Vein nourished the entire area.


    In the next instant, a wail sounded.


    This was emitted by the Spiritual Vein that was about to transform into a Dragon Vein.


    In order to get out of the cage, this Spiritual Vein was really ruthless. At the last moment, it not only gave up a large amount of source essence, but it also broke itself in half.


    Crazy!


    All the cultivators present had entered a state of madness.


    All of them wanted to get the spirit of the Spiritual Vein that had escaped.


    As long as they got the spirit of the Spiritual Vein and found a good Earth Vein, a new Spiritual Vein would be nurtured after a few hundred years.


    As for detaining the spirit of the Spiritual Vein, this method had actually existed since ancient times.


    Why was the Central Plains so prosperous? Why was it able to suppress all the other regions?


    It was because the various sects of the Central Plains had absorbed all the Spiritual Veins in the world.


    This caused the Spiritual Veins in other regions to almost disappear, and after countless years of development, they still hadn¡¯t recovered.


    They even forced those bald donkeys in the west to create a new cultivation system, creating the probability of incense worshiping.


    They forcefully created a force in the far west.


    But this was completely because they were forced.


    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that they didn¡¯t have any Spiritual Qi, the western bald donkeys wouldn¡¯t be like this.


    They wouldn¡¯t all be ascetic monks.


    The easternmost region had the most Spiritual Veins.


    The existence of the Daemon League was to suppress the various sects in the Central Plains and move all the Spiritual Veins to the easternmost region.


    Then, they would use the last bit of Spiritual Qi in the Eastern Land to nurture peerless geniuses to fight against the monsters of the Central Plains.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    ¡°We must protect the last bit of Spiritual Qi in Eastern Land!¡±


    ¡°Issue a call! No one can leave except for the people of the Daemon League!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Ascendants of the Daemon League were already red-eyed with killing intent.


    In order to prevent this Spiritual Vein from wandering outside, they were ready to kill everyone outside the Daemon League.


    ¡°Haha! You little kid, how arrogant!¡±


    However, before the Daemon League and the others could finish their words, someone made a move.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body. He raised his head and looked up.


    A divine sword stood in the void.


    Although it was just standing there, in the distance, countless tiny sword marks appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    This was the manifestation of that person¡¯s deep understanding of the Sword Dao.


    Its sharpness could cut through the sky.


    It directly suppressed all the Ascendants of the Daemon League.


    ¡°Is this the realm above the Ascendance realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have much fear in his heart.


    Because under the deduction of Hexadirectional Calculation, the person above him didn¡¯t seem to be able to do anything to him.


    He didn¡¯t know how much vitality and longevity substances had solidified on his Fate Wheel.

    In terms of life-saving abilities, Zhou Feng, who cultivated the Dao of Longevity, was absolutely invincible!


    Limb regeneration? It didn¡¯t seem like much to him now.


    ¡°What? You¡¯re still here!?¡±


    At that moment, Suzerain Infernal Dragon suddenly noticed that Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t run away.


    Moreover, there were piles of dried corpses around him, and the aura on Zhou Feng¡¯s body wasn¡¯t quite right.

 Chapter 548 - Every Step was a Sign of Great Danger!

    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s face was full of surprise at this time.


    He didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be here.


    The Spiritual Vein had just been shattered, and the Daemon League was already anxious.


    And the Daemon League disciples had all disappeared without anyone knowing when.


    In their place were corpses.


    This was a very serious matter.


    Someone actually dared to take advantage of the chaos to kill the disciples of the Daemon League. He simply didn¡¯t want to live anymore.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon followed the trail and rushed all the way to where Zhou Feng was.


    Then he saw Zhou Feng, whose entire body was emitting a strange aura.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    This time, Suzerain Infernal Dragon was surprised but not stunned.


    He directly used a killing move, not intending to give Zhou Feng the slightest chance to react because he sensed a hint of danger from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The dragon claw swept across the sky, Zhou Feng¡¯s head instantly turned black, and the ground was filled with shadows.


    This time, just like before, the void around Zhou Feng was immediately crushed.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s claw was practically able to crush a mountain.


    However, the current Zhou Feng was no longer the same as before.


    After absorbing countless resources, the passive Human Slayer had accumulated 30,000 stacks.


    His talent was also raised to a terrifying level through the passive Talent Plundering.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng roared angrily.


    It was only the simplest punch.


    However, this punch mobilized all the strength in his body and even surged up with the Mountain-Pushing and Sea-Filling Ability.


    A trace of the laws of the Physical Dao twined around his fist.


    A heavy sound rang out.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fist actually blocked Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s claw.


    Although the difference in cultivation level was too great¡ªZhou Feng¡¯s body suffered a huge force and directly broke¡ª Zhou Feng¡¯s broken body instantly recovered in the next second.


    The Fate Wheel¡¯s control over vitality and Blood Qi could be seen from here.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be able to fight him head-on.


    One had to know that when Zhou Feng faced him not long ago, he almost collapsed at the touch and didn¡¯t have the ability to fight back at all.


    But just as he turned around, Zhou Feng was able to fight him head-on?


    What exactly happened during this period!?


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fist landed, and the next fist followed with a furious roar as he attacked again.


    This punch was even more terrifying than before. It looked as if the entire world could no longer restrain his power.


    This was because Zhou Feng suddenly realized that his understanding of the Physical Dao had become even deeper during the battle.


    It was easier to catch the dao rhythms of the Physical Dao. This was the benefit of increasing the aptitude of the soul.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon immediately flew into a rage. Purple dragon scales appeared on his body.


    His entire body seemed to have mutated. Dragon horns, dragon tail, and dragon scales kept growing out.


    At this moment, he looked like a half-dragon man. The demonic purple color was becoming more and more obvious.


    The surrounding space also shattered at that moment.


    Unknowingly, Zhou Feng felt his body being crazily eroded.


    ¡®Spatial power?¡¯


    Zhou Feng frowned.


    The soil on the ground was destroyed silently along with Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s explosion.


    That¡¯s right!


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon mainly cultivated the Dao of Space, which was the advantage of his bloodline.


    However, it was not the Dao of Space that was used to baptize the soul after breaking through to the Ascendance realm.


    It was a different kind of law.


    However, this did not affect Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s ability to use spatial power when he attacked.


    ¡®Draw!¡¯


    At this seemingly critical moment, Zhou Feng did not panic.


    Instead, he saw that the progress bar was full and immediately began to draw a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    ¡°Passive fusion detected¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised when he saw this.


    ¡®Passive fusion?¡¯


    ¡°Fusion successful! Armor-Piercing Spear disappears!¡±


    Armor-Piercing Fist: When you throw successive punches, your attacks will ignore 30% of the enemy¡¯s defense and directly attack the main body.


    The Armor-Piercing Spear disappeared and was replaced by a passive skill called Armor-Piercing Fist.


    And this passive skill was also extremely heaven-defying.


    ¡®What!? 30%? Directly strike the physical body!?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw this new passive skill, his entire mind shifted slightly because this seemed to be somewhat invincible.


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how many times he had said this before, he still couldn¡¯t help but say ¡®Invincible¡¯ again.


    While Zhou Feng was still in a daze, Suzerain Infernal Dragon intended to use all his strength to kill Zhou Feng.


    The threat of this man was too great. He obtained the strength to fight him in the blink of an eye.


    It would be even worse if Zhou Feng was allowed to develop for some period.


    Therefore, Suzerain Infernal Dragon immediately used a few divine abilities.


    Summoning Wind and Rain!


    He had the Infernal Dragon bloodline, so he naturally knew this divine ability.


    For a moment, a bone-cutting wind blew from the nine heavens.


    However, this was not the end. Purple acid rain began to fall from the sky.


    When the purple raindrops fell on the ground, they corroded it and left small holes.


    Ascendance realm! Compared to the Dao Enlightenment realm, he could control the Great Dao¡¯s laws.


    And he could use the laws of the Great Dao for his own use.


    However, Zhou Feng was not in a hurry at all.


    Instead, he directly stepped on the ground and triggered the passive Immovable Mountain. He then threw one punch.


    It was still such a simple punch!


    Zhou Feng also realized that compared to being flashy, simple punches were more practical.


    This punch contained countless passive buffs and mobilized all the strength in his body.


    There was also a layer of Great Void Primordial Qi attached to it!


    He even used the Mountain-Pushing and Sea-Filling Ability to increase his strength.


    It could be said that Zhou Feng¡¯s simple punch shocked the heavens!


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon suddenly let out a blood-curdling scream.


    It looked as if he had been ambushed.


    In reality, Suzerain Infernal Dragon had been caught off guard by Zhou Feng.


    The Armor-Piercing Fist had just been obtained, yet it had already begun to show its effects.


    Originally, Suzerain Infernal Dragon had looked down on Zhou Feng¡¯s fist.


    This was because although this punch seemed powerful, all he needed to do was to twist the spatial laws slightly.


    Zhou Feng was unable to do anything to him.


    However, Suzerain Infernal Dragon felt incredulous because this punch seemed to have transcended time and space.


    It was as if it struck him from another dimension.


    ¡°This¡­ Why!?¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s eyes were filled with disbelief.


    Unfortunately, there was no time for him to lament.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s next punch had arrived.


    This time, Zhou Feng gave up on being passive.


    He chose to engage in close combat. He wanted to display his greatest advantage.


    At this time, Suzerain Infernal Dragon was also extremely violent. He had no intention of retreating.


    Under Zhou Fengyi¡¯s fists, Suzerain Infernal Dragon was instantly stunned.

 Chapter 549 - Every Step was a Sign of Great Danger!

    Suzerain Infernal Dragon was completely stunned!


    That¡¯s right! He was completely stunned!


    Because Zhou Feng¡¯s punches were actually suppressing him.


    It was pure suppression! There wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of trickery, plus that strange piercing effect stupefied Suzerain Infernal Dragon!


    His body was under tremendous pressure, and there was also that inexplicable bleeding effect.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon felt very uncomfortable. He had to spend a lot of energy to get rid of that bleeding effect.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was like an invincible overlord. There was no expression on his face, but he gave people a feeling of invincibility.


    ¡°Impossible!¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon naturally did not think that he would be defeated by a cultivator who had just reached the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    His entire body gave off a ferocious aura, but this wasn¡¯t enough to reverse the situation.


    Zhou Feng was an unparalleled battle machine right now. The passive Human Slayer¡¯s passive boost in attack power and the Armor-Piercing Fist made up for his biggest weakness.


    That was the damage he dealt when fighting against someone of a higher realm.


    Why was it so difficult to fight against someone of a higher realm?


    The most important point was that cultivators of a lower realm were unable to cause harm to cultivators of a higher realm.


    The Dao Enlightenment realm was the realm where one completely comprehended the laws of the great Dao.


    At this realm, one¡¯s body would undergo a baptism and metamorphosis.


    However, it mostly benefited the soul. Comprehending the laws of the great Dao would greatly help the soul.


    However, one¡¯s body would undergo a fundamental metamorphosis at the Ascendance realm so that they could completely utilize the laws of the great Dao.


    A Dao Enlightenment cultivator was simply no match for an Ascendant.


    Just the full usage of the laws of the great Dao translated as defeat by default for the Dao Enlightenment cultivator.


    Zhou Feng relied on two passive skills to completely eliminate the gap between the two sides.


    In terms of defense, Zhou Feng pursued the Dao of Longevity and had condensed a Fate Wheel, which could lock onto vitality.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t inferior to Suzerain Infernal Dragon in both offense and defense.


    Naturally, he had the upper hand due to his passive skills.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s eyes were bloodshot as purple blood continued to flow down his body.


    He only shouted, ¡°Dle¡±, and did not continue to say anything else.


    Unfortunately, not only could Suzerain Infernal Dragon not reverse the situation, but the injuries riddling his body also became more serious.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon could not help but mutter in his heart, ¡®Impossible!¡¯


    Was he really being suppressed by someone of a lower realm!?


    If he weren¡¯t careful, he would be killed here.


    Only now did Suzerain Infernal Dragon realize that his injuries were more serious than he had imagined.


    In comparison, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was still as good as new. He didn¡¯t seem to have any injuries at all.


    ¡®I have to flee!¡¯


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon suddenly had the urge to run.


    This thought made him feel extremely ashamed.


    He was facing a Dao Enlightenment cultivator, yet he wanted to run to save his life?


    This was simply a humiliation, a huge humiliation!


    However, he felt Zhou Feng¡¯s aura getting stronger and stronger.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon instantly made a decision, which was to choose to follow his heart.


    After cultivating to the Ascendance realm, his state of mind had long been tempered to be as firm as a rock.


    Although it looked very embarrassing, keeping his life was the most important point.


    A momentary failure was only temporary, not permanent.


    Of course, even if he ran away, he couldn¡¯t just turn around and run away.


    Not only would that be too embarrassing, but it would also be easy for Zhou Feng to seize the opportunity.


    For some reason, Suzerain Infernal Dragon felt that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t using his full strength.


    That¡¯s right! Although this was a gut feeling was incredible, don¡¯t forget it was the gut feeling of an Ascendant!


    If he turned around and ran, it would be very dangerous.


    Therefore, Suzerain Infernal Dragon suddenly roared, and his body continued to return to its roots.


    His body expanded crazily, and a purple light flashed in his eyes.


    ¡®An opportunity!¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw this, his eyes also flashed.


    The opportunity had finally come!


    Zhou Feng squeezed out all the power of his soul without the slightest hesitation and used his most powerful self-created soul attack¡ªthe Soul Punch!


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s strongest move in the past, but he gradually stopped using it as he collected more divine abilities.


    After all, this move drained his soul power.


    It was not something an ordinary person could withstand.


    But at this critical moment, he still used this move because he keenly sensed that his opponent wanted to escape.


    There was no bright light!


    There was also no surprising phenomenon!


    This punch was silent.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon did not expect Zhou Feng to use a soul attack.


    Moreover, he chose this moment.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon felt his brain had been hammered hard, and even his brain cells were fried.


    Although the Soul Punch affected the soul, it triggered the passive Armor-Piercing Fist!


    It directly ignored the various protective dao artifacts on Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s body.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon couldn¡¯t hold it in any longer, and he spat out a mouthful of blood and felt dizzy.


    Zhou Feng seized the opportunity and grabbed Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s neck and¡­ sank his teeth in it!


    He bit off Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s flesh!


    That¡¯s right! It was so wild and violent!


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t sure what life-saving items Suzerain Infernal Dragon had, so he wanted to use the most primitive method to kill Suzerain Infernal Dragon here.


    The Fate Wheel in Zhou Feng¡¯s body also played its role and began to absorb Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s vitality and flesh continuously.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon naturally did not intend to surrender.


    Alas, Zhou Feng¡¯s opportunity was too accurate.


    He ruthlessly grabbed the Ascendant¡¯s body and crazily drained his vitality.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon was simply unable to resist. He did not even have the time to use his protective treasures.


    This was too sudden! Suzerain Infernal Dragon was caught off guard!


    He was facing a Dao Enlightenment cultivator, yet not only did he not gain the upper hand, but he was also suppressed and on the verge of death.


    A certain degree of contempt had also resulted in the current situation.


    At the last moment, Zhou Feng fiercely twisted off Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s head.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s aura was cut off. He was deader than dead!


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s death could be described as absurd.


    Still, Zhou Feng accomplished this feat. He went against the flow and killed his opponent!


    The moment Suzerain Infernal Dragon died, Zhou Feng also felt a huge feedback.


    Talent Plundering! Soul Harvesting!


    There was also a series of passive triggers, and this feedback was somewhat fierce.


    This was an Ascendant, after all. The laws of the great Dao had completely baptized his body.


    Zhou Feng drained all the essence of Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s flesh and blood through Origin Drain.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng sometimes felt that Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance was like the Demonic Path¡¯s inheritance.


    This was because it was all about how to plunder the vitality of others for one¡¯s own use.


    Origin Drain was a small method in Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    It could plunder all vitality, purify flesh and blood, and turn them into nutrients to make one¡¯s own Longevity bloodline more perfect.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t do without this trick now because the feeling of being able to obtain feedback immediately after killing an enemy was too great.

 Chapter 550 - Every Step was a Sign of Great Danger!

    Origin Drain was the most important technique in Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, and it could only be used after reaching the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    It touched the laws of the Dao of Longevity, so it could absorb the opponent¡¯s longevity substances that had been affected by the great Dao¡¯s laws.


    Zhou Feng was in unprecedentedly good condition.


    ¡°Suzerain Infernal Dragon? What?¡±


    ¡°What happened!?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The death of Suzerain Infernal Dragon instantly caused a chain reaction.


    The Daemon League had lost an Ascendant!


    This caused the Daemon League to fall into a crisis, and an even more intense battle began.


    And as the main culprit, Zhou Feng became the target of public criticism.


    ¡°This person has the Longevity Constitution, and he was actually able to kill someone of a higher level. He definitely has a great secret!¡±


    ¡°Ten birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in the hand!¡±


    ¡°Do it!¡±


    The disappearance of Suzerain Infernal Dragon¡¯s aura attracted the gazes of countless cultivators.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that many gazes were focused on him.


    Surprise! Disbelief! Greed!


    He could clearly feel all sorts of different emotions.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stood on end, and a great sense of danger overwhelmed him/


    He used all his strength to perform the Starseizer Steps and tried to leave.


    However, the entire sky seemed to have been blown up at that moment as a huge hole suddenly formed.


    A deafening sound spread in all directions.


    Even the ground was not spared, as countless parts of the flat ground cracked.


    The law of the Heavenly Dao seemed to appear directly.


    This scene was the huge impact caused by the manifestation of a great Dao.


    That majestic power was like a vast ocean, fully displayed at this moment.


    ¡®Damn it!¡¯


    This was the first time Zhou Feng felt the disparity.


    He didn¡¯t even get a clear look at the enemy¡¯s appearance, and half of his body was directly destroyed.


    Half of Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh and blood had completely disappeared, leaving only his skeleton, with numerous cracks all over it.


    If it weren¡¯t for his quick reaction speed, his entire body might have turned into powder.


    ¡°Eh!?¡±


    A surprised voice sounded upon seeing that Zhou Feng had survived.


    It seemed that the opponent hadn¡¯t expected Zhou Feng to survive.


    Moreover, the half part of Zhou Feng¡¯s body that had disappeared was growing out flesh buds crazily and was recovering at an astonishing speed.


    During this process, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura didn¡¯t weaken at all.


    ¡°Someone has taken the Spiritual Vein!¡±


    ¡°Quickly! It¡¯s over there!¡±


    ¡°Give chase!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    At that moment, everyone¡¯s attention was instantly diverted.


    Compared to him, the Spiritual Vein was more attractive.


    And at this time, many people also saw some clues.


    Zhou Feng was a bit strange. He was definitely not an ordinary Dao Enlightenment cultivator. After all, he had killed Suzerain Infernal Dragon.


    That strange recovery speed also sent chills down their spines. Half of his body had been destroyed, yet he had completely recovered in the blink of an eye.


    This was somewhat strange. God knew how many trump cards Zhou Feng had.


    Thus, many people discarded the idea of finding trouble with Zhou Feng.


    To put it simply, many people were scared of him.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s previous valiant battle record had truly shocked many people.


    There was also the person who had just attacked Zhou Feng. He seemed to be a super-powerful expert of the 5th Step of the Ascendance realm.


    If even this kind of person could not kill Zhou Feng in an instant, then it would be somewhat difficult for others to kill Zhou Feng.


    Therefore, everyone had their own considerations.


    Under such circumstances, many people vanquished the thoughts of attacking Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Such a situation surprised Zhou Feng.


    He could feel that many people coveted him, but each of them was like a poisonous snake. They were all waiting for an opportunity and did not plan to attack directly.


    Instead, they were patiently waiting for Zhou Feng to reveal a flaw.


    Perhaps when he revealed a flaw, these people would swarm over.


    This feeling made him extremely unhappy.


    Zhou Feng frowned and left this place step by step.


    Nobody stopped him or followed behind him.


    But in that instant, the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth was triggered as a mark landed on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    This mark was instantly purified.


    ¡°Keke! Interesting!¡±


    A hunchbacked man in the distance let out an ear-piercing peal of laughter.


    Zhou Feng frowned even more.


    ¡®AI! Scan the surroundings!¡¯


    Zhou Feng locked his aura and casually threw a few spirit beans.


    It seemed that all cultivators became more cautious after cultivating to this realm.


    Especially the Dao Enlightenment cultivators were already able to comprehend the laws of the great Dao.


    Their understanding of the laws of the great Dao was even deeper.


    Such cultivators rarely made spontaneous moves. Once they saw that Zhou Feng was not to be trifled with, they all changed tactics.


    At that moment, the AI informed Zhou Feng that the blood and body tissues he had lost in the battle had all disappeared.


    Also, his super-strong senses weren¡¯t working at all at this moment.


    He didn¡¯t detect any traces in the surroundings.


    ¡®I¡¯m being viciously targeted!¡¯


    This news made Zhou Feng even calmer.


    ¡®Encirclement hunt, huh?¡¯


    At present, Zhou Feng was like a young master with countless hungry wolves lurking around him.


    Such a situation allowed him to understand his own shortcomings.


    He did not have any divine abilities that could detect the situation around him. From the beginning until now, he had always relied on his powerful perception to deal with hidden enemies.


    However, these methods were not enough after reaching the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Previously, he had carried out a crazy massacre, and many careless Dao Enlightenment cultivators had all died at his hands.


    The cultivators who remained were all cunning old ghosts who cherished their lives.


    Not to mention that some Ascendants were also eyeing him.


    ¡®Spatial teleportation talisman¡­ No!¡¯


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes. He had already concealed his aura and was far away from the center of the battle.


    But when he took out the spatial teleportation talisman, the AI reminded him in his mind in a frenzy.


    ¡°Great evil omen!


    ¡°Great evil omen!¡¯


    At this time, the AI used Hexadirectional Calculation to make all sorts of predictions.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s every step led to a great evil omen.


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t misread!


    No one knew when it started, but no matter where Zhou Feng went, every step he took was a great evil omen.


    This was completely different from before.


    When he was fighting Suzerain Infernal Dragon, Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s predictions were all auspicious and ominous.


    But now, it was completely different.


    The surroundings became quieter, and the sound of the wind had disappeared.


    Silence!


    Zhou Feng subconsciously felt a little nervous.


    ¡®That¡¯s not right! How can I suddenly become nervous!?¡¯


    His brows furrowed even more tightly.


    Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng would rarely be nervous.


    After gaining the Longevity bloodline in his body, he was affected by the longevity substances, and his feelings had become indifferent.


    He rarely experienced the tension of this kind of emotion.

 Chapter 551 - Offending a God?

    Zhou Feng felt as if he had fallen into a large net.


    In response to this, he was unmoved. He wanted to see who would dare to find trouble with him.


    ¡®Moreover, the attraction of the Spiritual Vein is much stronger than mine!¡¯


    Zhou Feng calculated in his heart.


    One had to know that his passive Human Slayer was not enough.


    At present, it had only accumulated 30,000 stacks. It was barely enough to use it to challenge an ordinary Ascendant.


    If someone came knocking on his door, Zhou Feng naturally wouldn¡¯t let go of this opportunity.


    Also, as his aptitude increased, he discovered that the computational ability of the AI had also increased quite a bit.


    The AI seemed to be able to analyze divine abilities and techniques faster now.


    Originally, the analysis of the Starseizer Steps had been stuck there, unable to advance an inch.


    But there was significant progress now.


    ¡®My various techniques are too messy! I have to find an opportunity!¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng realized that his battle system was too chaotic.


    Part of his techniques came from two Human Emperors¡¯ inheritance, and part of them came from Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    Then, there were all sorts of techniques that were pieced together. Some had been obtained through fortuitous encounters, while others had been obtained through seizing.


    There were even a few that Zhou Feng had comprehended and created on his own.


    All in all, his battle system was all over the place.


    These techniques were incompatible and did not form a system. It was difficult for them to form all sorts of coordination.


    Even Zhou Feng¡¯s path of cultivation changed again and again.


    He had started cultivating the Tri-Gu Sect¡¯s demonic techniques and then changed to the Human Emperors¡¯ inheritances.


    Finally, he used Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance as a benchmark to create the Longevity bloodline.


    It could be said that his path of cultivation was full of twists and turns.


    He had tried to integrate it but did not make much progress because of his lack of ability and low cultivation level.


    But now, he had to consider this aspect because that inexplicable attack reminded Zhou Feng that there was always someone better than him.


    If he wanted to go further, he couldn¡¯t do it with all kinds of messy techniques.


    He had to form a system and integrate the essence of his techniques to develop his own techniques and divine abilities.


    Create his own divine abilities! Create his own techniques!


    It seemed like he could already do that.


    At that moment, countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    Because of the existence of his passive skills, the path other cultivators took might not be suitable for him. He needed to analyze his own strengths and weaknesses to create his own path.


    ¡®It¡¯s best to use Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance and the Longevity bloodline as the foundation¡­¡¯


    In this kind of environment, Zhou Feng was unexpectedly calm.


    The crisis in the surroundings didn¡¯t affect him. Instead, it made him calmly think about the future path.


    ¡°Hmm?¡±


    But just as Zhou Feng was exceptionally calm, a sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.


    Someone blocked his path.


    Si Hun was dressed in black. No one knew when he appeared in front of Zhou Feng.


    This person¡¯s temperament was cold, but he did not exude an overly terrifying aura. Instead, he was like a divine sword hidden in a scabbard.


    Although he did not reveal his sharp edge, it was impossible to ignore him.


    ¡°Amazing! To think the Eastern Land could give birth to a prodigy like you. What a surprise!¡±


    Si Hun sighed as he stared at Zhou Feng.


    In his heart, other than the easternmost land, the Eastern Land could not give birth to a prodigy like Zhou Feng.


    This could only be attributed to Zhou Feng¡¯s monstrous talent.


    After all, many years ago, other than the easternmost region, the rest of the Eastern Land had already deteriorated. Almost all the Spiritual Veins had been divided up by the Central Plains or the Daemon League.


    The lack of Spiritual Veins meant that there were fewer cultivation resources.


    Yet, Zhou Feng managed to cultivate with almost no cultivation resources to a level he could kill an Ascendant.


    This sounded like an incredible feat.


    ¡°Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng sensed Si Hun¡¯s aura and realized that this person¡¯s realm was the same as his.


    However, this person was a hundred times more dangerous than Suzerain Infernal Dragon.


    This feeling was very strange.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon was clearly an Ascendant, yet Si Hun was even more dangerous than the former?


    ¡°It¡¯s really strange! I heard that you obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, but why are there so many laws of several great Daos on your body?¡±


    Si Hun¡¯s eyes revealed a trace of curiosity.


    In his eyes, Zhou Feng was a very strange person.


    His aura was restrained to the extreme, and his vitality and Blood Qi were locked.


    At the same time, there were countless traces of various laws on his body.


    It was as if countless laws favored Zhou Feng.


    These laws were intertwined together and would help Zhou Feng together once he engaged in battle. There was also no conflict.


    To be honest, this was really wonderful.


    One had to know that the Dao Enlightenment realm was divided into three sub-realms.


    They were Dao Seeking, Dao Essence, and Dao Comprehension.


    These three sub-realms were generally called the three realms of enlightenment.


    The Divine Ability and Dragon Transformation realms had a very rigid and thin understanding of the laws of the great Dao.


    Only after passing through the heavenly tribulation and reaching the Dao Enlightenment realm could one truly comprehend and control the laws of the great Dao for their own use.


    Of course, there were also those who relied on the legacies of their predecessors and directly broke through to the Ascendance realm regardless of the three realms of enlightenment.


    This kind of Ascendant was also known as the weakest Ascendant.


    They could only bully some ordinary Dao Enlightenment cultivators, but they were nothing when they faced real monsters.


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon was such an Ascendant. It was entirely because of his Infernal Dragon bloodline. He only needed to rely on the inheritance in his bloodline to break through to the Ascendance realm step by step.


    However, because of skipping the step of passing through the three realms of enlightenment, Suzerain Infernal Dragon could not use his full strength.


    In the end, he died under Zhou Feng¡¯s hands, or more like his cheating device.


    As for Si Hun, he had broken through the first two sub-realms of the Dao Enlightenment. He was at the Dao Comprehension realm now.


    ¡®Various laws?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change, nor did he speak.


    However, he felt that these so-called various laws had something to do with his passive skills.


    Si Hun looked at the silent Zhou Feng. ¡°Not speaking? It doesn¡¯t matter even if you don¡¯t speak¡ª¡±


    In the next second, Zhou Feng directly threw a punch.


    This punch could topple mountains and overturn seas! It was like a volcano erupting.


    All the Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body burst out, causing Si Hun to shut his mouth immediately.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng had nothing to say to Si Hun at all.


    He had suddenly appeared and blocked his way. Then, he commented on him here with a relaxed look. Who was he pretending for?


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, Si Hun was here to cause trouble.


    He could punch such a person directly.


    ¡°Huh!?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden attack made Si Hun¡¯s face instantly turn black.


    Golden Blood Qi burst out from his body, and a domineering and fierce aura spread out.


    ¡°You¡¯re really bold! And your brain isn¡¯t that good either!¡±


    At that moment, Si Hun seemed to have changed into a different person. He was now like a high and mighty god who was angrily scolding a mortal who had offended him.

 Chapter 552 - Strange Underground World

    Si Hun directly blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    However, before he could counterattack, Zhou Feng took action first.


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Zhou Feng crushed a few teleportation talismans.


    This was a very common life-saving method. Many cultivators would choose to buy this kind of teleportation talisman to protect themselves.


    Well, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to buy it himself. In any case, he didn¡¯t know how many cultivators had died at his hands.


    Just by putting these spoils of war together, he already had a large number of teleportation talismans.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    The moment Zhou Feng crushed the teleportation talismans, Si Hun immediately counterattacked.


    The surrounding space immediately became chaotic as a ring emitting faint light appeared.


    One had to know that Si Hun had rushed here because of Zhou Feng.


    Originally, Si Hun was not there but in the easternmost region.


    But when the Spiritual Vein exploded, the Daemon League and the others realized something was wrong.


    They immediately started to ask for help, and then they wanted to completely lock this place.


    As for Zhou Feng, he was also the Daemon League¡¯s target.


    There was nothing they could do! The Longevity Constitution was too attractive.


    In addition to Zhou Feng¡¯s talent, it was really difficult not to covet it.


    Hence, Si Hun hurried over.


    ¡°As expected!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t look surprised because he already knew the outcome from the AI.


    Hexadirectional Calculation was extremely vicious.


    The ring Si Hun had summoned interfered with the teleportation talismans.


    It even caused the space to shatter slightly, and the sharp spatial power cut Zhou Feng¡¯s body into pieces.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng¡¯s body could already be said to be quite strong.


    Even Suzerain Infernal Dragon couldn¡¯t do anything to him when facing him.


    Alas, Zhou Feng was extremely weak against spatial power.


    Still, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care much as his body started to recover at the first moment.


    Then, a series of explosions echoed instantly!


    There was no warning or time to buffer!


    A series of large explosions took place with Zhou Feng as the center, and the surroundings began to shake.


    Blinding light and scorching heat enveloped all the surroundings.


    ¡°Now!¡±


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Feng completely restrained his aura.


    Fortunately, with the existence of the Fate Wheel, his entire body seemed to have turned into a piece of rotten wood. It was silent and did not reveal the slightest bit of aura.


    At the same time, he crushed more than a dozen teleportation talismans.


    This caused an even huger spatial fluctuation than before.


    1


    Under this kind of spatial fluctuation, the teleportation talismans would become extremely uncontrollable.


    It was even possible that they would transport one underground and bury them alive. It was also possible that they would be transported to some dangerous places.


    However, this was precisely Zhou Feng¡¯s plan. If he wanted to escape, he naturally needed to pay a price.


    ¡°Not good! He wants to escape!¡±


    After sensing such intense spatial fluctuations, Si Hun¡¯s face betrayed traces of shock. He absolutely could not let Zhou Feng successfully escape!


    If Zhou Feng successfully escaped, then wouldn¡¯t he become a joke?


    To think that he was putting on an act earlier, looking down at Zhou Feng.


    Si Hun felt extremely regretful now. Why didn¡¯t he attack Zhou Feng at the first moment?


    If he had successfully launched a sneak attack while Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t paying attention, then Zhou Feng definitely wouldn¡¯t be able to escape. He would have captured such a wild monster alive.


    Regret!


    Several kinds of emotions overwhelmed Si Hun¡¯s heart.


    ¡°Too difficult to deal with! and his methods are too strange!¡±


    This was the feeling Si Hun got after facing Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng had definitely arranged these series of explosions in advance. Otherwise, it wouldn¡¯t have been so sudden.


    That¡¯s right! The big explosions were the doing of the spirit beans Zhou Feng had released in advance. These spirit beans turned into dao soldiers at the critical moment and instantly self-destructed.


    It bought him precious time.


    ¡°Now, I can really say goodbye!¡±


    Zhou Feng took out another pile of teleportation talismans and used them all at once.


    Even though doing so would make it extremely dangerous, he could at the very least leave this place and get rid of those annoying lurking wolves.


    Regarding this, Zhou Feng only felt that he wasn¡¯t strong enough.


    If he was strong enough, he could completely ignore and destroy everything!


    There would be no need for him to use a large number of teleportation talismans to teleport to an unknown place.


    ¡°The spirit of the Spiritual Vein!¡±


    ¡°What!?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to teleport to an unknown place, a spirit light suddenly exploded.


    Zhou Feng felt his right wrist become scalding hot as a stone bracelet mysteriously appeared on his hand.


    Then, he disappeared from where he was.


    Before he disappeared, Zhou Feng could even hear a few frustrated voices.


    ¡°Damn it! It was all for naught!?¡±


    ¡°Is this a variable? Such a monster suddenly appeared, and he even allowed the spirit of the Spiritual Vein to escape!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry! We have already collected this person¡¯s blood. He can¡¯t escape!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    All kinds of words kept passing by Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    But right now, he did not have the energy to listen.


    Zhou Feng felt that his entire body was being cut crazily, and his vitality was being consumed at an alarming rate.


    ¡­


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    During the teleportation process, Zhou Feng did not faint.


    Instead, he relied on the Fate Wheel to firmly stabilize his vitality and flesh, maintaining his consciousness.


    Therefore, after the teleportation ended, Zhou Feng was able to calmly observe his surroundings.


    It was dark! Extremely dark!


    This was his first feeling.


    ¡®Am I underground?;


    He raised his head to look up and realized no sun was above his head.


    Instead, there was a thick rock wall and some moss that was emitting a faint light.


    Then, Zhou Feng asked the AI to map his surroundings.


    ¡®I¡¯m in a long tunnel?¡¯


    The tunnel that Zhou Feng was in was connected to countless tunnels. These tunnels were all large and small and were complicated.


    He had no idea where these tunnels led to.


    What made Zhou Feng even more shocked was that there were many demonic remains near him.


    These remains were constantly emitting Demonic Qi and Yin Qi.


    They were even corroding his body.


    And that was not all. Zhou Feng saw a few pairs of red eyes staring at him.


    ¡°Where have I come to? What is this place?¡±


    Zhou Feng had never heard of such a place in the Eastern Land.


    This place was even more terrifying than the Cold Wind mountain range. The strange remains under his feet were constantly emitting Yin Qi.


    Some of the passages were still slowly emitting a foul aura. There was no Spiritual Qi in this place at all.


    If not for his strong physical body and the support of his Fate Wheel, it would not have taken long for him to be completely transformed.


    Just as he was still in a daze, a roar sounded.


    Something had ambushed him!


    Zhou Feng instantly tensed up.

 Chapter 553 - Blackmailing Zhou Feng?

    After Zhou Feng heard the commotion behind him, he instantly condensed the Great Void Primordial Qi into a long spear.


    The spear pierced through!


    ¡°Squeak!¡±


    A rotten rat with wings was nailed to the rock wall.


    2


    This rat¡¯s eyes were bloodshot, and its entire body was almost rotten. One could even faintly see some of its bones.


    However, it seemed to be very energetic.


    Even though it was nailed to the rock wall, it was still frantically struggling to escape.


    ¡°It has wings?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised. He did not expect a rat to have a pair of wings.


    It even sneaked up on him from behind.


    ¡®What exactly is this place?¡¯


    If his guess was not wrong, he should have teleported into a cave.


    For some reason, this place gave him a very uneasy feeling.


    He.


    Zhou Feng casually wiped out this rat and planned to explore this place.


    ¡°At least I¡¯m out of danger!¡±


    Since he was temporarily out of danger, there was no need to be so anxious.


    Zhou Feng already felt that his cultivation was too messy.


    So next, his goal was to find a way to integrate everything he had learned.


    ¡®Wait!¡¯


    He suddenly felt that he had forgotten something.


    ¡°Why can¡¯t I remember? This should be very important!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly frowned.


    He seemed to have forgotten something very important.


    What was this thing again?


    The AI!


    After sensing that something was wrong, he immediately checked the information recorded by the AI.


    ¡°Spirit of the Spiritual Vein!¡±


    Zhou Feng remembered that something seemed to have attached to his hand before teleporting here.


    Sure enough, he lowered his head and saw a stone bracelet on his wrist.


    This stone bracelet looked very ordinary, as if someone had randomly found a few rocks by the roadside and put them together.


    Even its sense of existence was very low.


    ¡®So, in the end, it still benefited me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed with a trace of fervor.


    He didn¡¯t expect that after so many Ascendants fought to the death, it would actually benefit him in the end.


    This was a spirit that was born from a huge Spiritual Vein.


    Not only did it possess extremely high intelligence, it could also transform back into a Spiritual Vein anytime and anywhere.


    To the Spiritual Vein, gathering Spiritual Qi was as easy as breathing.


    Its body even contained a special Dao Origin Rune. If one were to comprehend this Dao Origin Rune fully, then they would be able to control the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings.


    ¡°Let¡¯s cooperate!¡±


    Seeing that it could no longer conceal itself, this Spiritual Vein took the initiative to cooperate with Zhou Feng.


    A weak voice sounded in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    ¡®As expected, humans are the most inconceivable race. He actually discovered something amiss just like that.¡¯


    The consciousness of the Spiritual Vein that had just been born was somewhat discouraged.


    It originally thought that it would be able to deceive Zhou Feng, a vagabond cultivator who had just stepped into the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Therefore, it used its spirit-gathering ability to make Zhou Feng completely forget about itself.


    Alas, it didn¡¯t expect that it wouldn¡¯t be able to deceive him.


    One had to know that it had relied on this move to conceal itself from its Ascendant pursuers.


    Although the consciousness of the Spiritual Vein had just been born, it actually possessed countless memories.


    This was because it had already existed for tens of thousands of years. Tens of thousands of years of wind and rain had made it experience countless things.


    With this accumulation, the moment the consciousness of the Spiritual Vein was born, it controlled countless secrets from ancient times until now.


    It could be said that for a Spiritual Vein to be able to give birth to a consciousness was simply a gift from heaven and earth.


    If it could take a human form in the future, then the consciousness of the Spiritual Vein would definitely be able to ascend to heaven in one step and directly transform into an immortal.


    ¡°Cooperation?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change, and no one knew what he was thinking.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Cooperation!¡±


    The spirit of the Spiritual Vein appeared to be very intelligent, and it even looked like an old fox.


    It immediately saw through Zhou Feng¡¯s current situation.


    There were traces of various laws on his body, and he was completely different from the cultivators who had besieged it previously.


    ¡®This kind of human should be called a vagabond cultivator.


    ¡®Vagabond cultivators should be the most miserable humans. They have no cultivation resources or cultivation inheritances.


    ¡®Therefore, as long as I provide enough benefits, I will be able to stabilize this person. If I get him to find a suitable Earth Vein, I will be able to revert to my original form.¡¯


    Zhou Feng had a thirst for cultivation-realm knowledge, so he started to ask directly, ¡°Do you know how many realms there are in the Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    Previously, Si Hun¡¯s appearance made him realize once again that an inheritance without cultivation knowledge always posed a hidden danger.


    Therefore, he needed to make up for this knowledge.


    The spirit of the Spiritual Vein was very straightforward and began to explain.


    ¡°I know! The Dao Enlightenment realm is divided into three sub-realms: Dao Seeking, Dao Essence, and Dao Comprehension.


    ¡°Among them, the so-called Dao Seeking is to ask oneself what the great Dao and the laws are.


    ¡°This sub-realm requires the most basic understanding of the laws of the great Dao.


    ¡°Compared to the Divine Ability realm¡¯s superficial understanding of the laws of the great Dao, this sub-realm requires the exploration of the core of the laws of the great Dao.


    ¡°This is also the difficulty of the Dao Enlightenment realm. Most of the cultivators in this world have no way to cross this hurdle, so they choose other methods to take this step, such as bloodline and Dao Seals.


    ¡°There are various methods that can help cultivators easily cross this hurdle.


    ¡°Compared to the cultivators of the ancient times, the current cultivators indeed have many tricks up their sleeves.


    ¡°Alas, the difference in strength is like heaven and earth.¡±


    Suzerain Infernal Dragon was such an example. He was a mighty Ascendant, yet he was no match for a Dao Comprehension cultivator like Si Hun.


    This was because he didn¡¯t deeply understand the laws of the great Dao.


    ¡°I see¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng now had some understanding of the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    However, just as he was about to continue listening, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein stopped.


    ¡°If you want to continue listening to the rest of the content, please find some essence of an Earth Vein.


    ¡°Of course, I won¡¯t let you suffer a loss. As long as you find the essence of an Earth Vein, then I can help you create some spirit crystals!¡±


    The reason the spirit of the Spiritual Vein stopped was very simple¡ªit was driving Zhou Feng to work for it.


    The essence of the Earth Vein was hidden in the deepest part of the Earth Vein and was considered an earthly treasure.


    Moreover, it would move according to the rhythm of the Earth Vein.


    Under normal circumstances, it was very difficult to find it. This kind of earthly treasure was not very useful for cultivators, but it was an excellent tonic for the Spiritual Vein.


    The spirit of the Spiritual Vein drove Zhou Feng to search for the essence of the Earth Vein in order to recover a portion of its strength.


    After all, it did not have the ability to protect itself at this time. Even its spiritual intelligence would be worn down if it left Zhou Feng in this place with such a dense resentment aura.


    Therefore, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein wanted to use this to blackmail Zhou Feng.


    What Zhou Feng did not know was that in order to escape the Demon League¡¯s restrictions, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein had basically given up everything that it could give up.


    Now, only the most important thing was left. It didn¡¯t even have the ability to resist.


    Unfortunately, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein didn¡¯t know that Zhou Feng hated it the most when people threatened him.


    2


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression changed slightly.

 Chapter 554 - Curse and Kill!

    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t respond. He just silently removed the stone bracelet.


    ¡®AI! How¡¯s the analysis going?¡¯


    During the process of communicating with the spirit of the Spiritual Vein, he didn¡¯t do nothing.


    On the contrary, he had been using the AI to analyze the spirit of the Spiritual Vein.


    Soon, the AI gave an answer.


    ¡®No ability to resist? I only need a strong soul power to suppress or even erase it?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised by this result.


    According to the AI¡¯s analysis, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein had no defensive ability at all. In fact, one only needed a stronger soul power to suppress the spirit of the Spiritual Vein.


    Then, they would only need to use their soul power to wash it bit by bit.


    After washing it clean, Zhou Feng could study the Dao Origin Rune.


    This was Dao Origin Rune that symbolized the usage of Spiritual Qi.


    ¡®Hexadirectional Calculation shows no bad omens¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was using Hexadirectional Calculation non-stop.


    The answer was that there was no danger.


    Therefore, he no longer hesitated and used his soul power to wash the bracelet in front of him.


    ¡°Ah! What are you doing!?¡±


    The spirit of the Spiritual Vein immediately felt the threat of death.


    It simply could not understand why Zhou Feng would do this.


    Weren¡¯t they having a good discussion earlier? Why was he doing this now?


    Silence¡­


    Zhou Feng did not say a word. He was only using his soul power to cleanse the spirit of the Spiritual Vein.


    ¡°Ah!! Don¡¯t you want to know the secret of the three sub-realms? And I can also sense that there is a Spiritual Vein there!


    ¡°I also know many things! Oh right¡­¡±


    The spirit of the Spiritual Vein seemed to have sensed Zhou Feng¡¯s determination, so it started to crazily throw out its chips, trying to make Zhou Feng stop.


    In fact, it would be a waste of a god¡¯s gift to eliminate the spirit of a Spiritual Vein.


    This was a being born from the Spiritual Vein with the ability to control Spiritual Qi. It had even learned some ancient secrets during its formation process.


    It also had a treasure-seeking ability. Given the spirit of the Spiritual Vein¡¯s sensitivity to Spiritual Qi, detecting Spiritual Veins and searching for earthly treasures was a trivial matter.


    If it were any other cultivator, they wouldn¡¯t casually kill a spirit of the Spiritual Vein. After all, as long as one controlled the spirit of the Spiritual Vein, the benefits would be endless.


    This was also why many Ascendants of the Daemon League had spent a lot of effort trapping the spirit of the Spiritual Vein and moving it to the easternmost region.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s method was undoubtedly killing the goose that laid the golden egg.


    Killing a chicken that laid golden eggs just for a bite of meat?


    This was simply too stupid!


    Still, Zhou Feng had to do it.


    The reason he was doing this was not only because he hated being blackmailed.


    There were several other reasons, with the risk factor being the primary one.


    He had no way of completely controlling a Spiritual Vein that had its own consciousness.


    It would be dangerous if he were disturbed by the Spiritual Vein while fighting with others.


    Another reason was that Zhou Feng was afraid that the Spiritual Vein would attract an enemy that he could not defeat. This was simply an unstable bomb.


    He could not let it stay by his side.


    Although Zhou Feng was very eager for the cultivation knowledge of the Dao Enlightenment realm, this was already related to his safety.


    Therefore, removing his spiritual wisdom would not change this matter.


    ¡°No! I Am the darling of heaven and earth! The heavens will punish you!¡±


    No matter how crazily the spirit shouted, Zhou Feng was still unmoved.


    ¡°Idiot! You have no idea how big of an opportunity you are destroying!


    ¡°With me here! You can at least reach the Ascendance realm!


    ¡°So stupid! No wonder you were chased by people and ran away in a hurry!¡±


    1


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Before disappearing, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein was cursing Zhou Feng crazily.


    However, it was still the same sentence. Zhou Feng did not care about the so-called opportunity at all.


    Everything had to be based on safety!


    Opportunity? The skill panel was the biggest opportunity!


    The thousands of passive skills awaiting Zhou Feng were his greatest opportunity.


    Even if there were no other opportunities, he could still rely on thousands of passive skills to snatch the opportunity for himself.


    It was also because he had such confidence that Zhou Feng would do such a thing.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    When the ear-piercing scream slowly disappeared, the stone bracelet in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand also began to slowly crumble, releasing Spiritual Qi of the purest and highest quality.


    ¡®This stone bracelet actually turned into a rune?


    ¡°Not good!¡±


    Sensing the restlessness in his surroundings, Zhou Feng immediately summoned the green lotus from his Soul Altar and used it to envelop this rune.


    Only then did the Spiritual Qi slowly dissipate.


    ¡®It was so close!¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt that if he were one step slower, the surroundings would be in great danger.


    ¡­


    ¡°Disappeared? Impossible!¡±


    ¡°The spirit of the Spiritual Vein has been erased?¡±


    ¡°Is there really such a ruthless person!? Impossible¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A group of Ascendants was filled with astonishment back at the easternmost region because the spirit of the Spiritual Vein had disappeared.


    The will that had been born from the Spiritual Vein had actually been erased.


    There was actually such a ruthless person in this world who could not suppress his greed for the Spiritual Vein.


    ¡°Zhou Feng! This person is called Zhou Feng!¡±


    ¡°Big troublemaker! This kid is definitely a big troublemaker!¡±


    ¡°Find him. We can¡¯t let this kind of monster slowly grow outside.¡±


    ¡°Just kill him! This kid left behind quite a bit of blood¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    None of them were on par with him at all. They had planned for so long but to no avail.


    If that were the case, they might as well have taken away the Dao Origin Rune back then.


    To be honest, they had never seen such a ruthless person before.


    Zhou Feng had undoubtedly become a thorn in the flesh of the Daemon League.


    Next, Zhou Feng would face endless curses and assassination attempts.


    Of course, other than curses and assassination attempts, the Daemon League would not let go of Zhou Feng¡¯s corpse.


    Longevity Constitution! If it were not for the collapse of the Spiritual Vein, Zhou Feng would not have been able to escape with this unique constitution.


    ¡­


    ¡°What am I doing¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng had just stored the Dao Origin Rune into the green lotus when his physical body began to feel uncomfortable.


    A nauseating feeling began to appear in his chest.


    Suddenly, countless poisonous sores began to grow out of his physical body.


    These poisonous sores grew out of nowhere and were extremely dense. Zhou Feng even felt that he could not open his eyes.


    Intense pain spread all over his body.


    ¡°A curse?¡±


    Facing such a terrifying curse, Zhou Feng was very calm after the initial discomfort.


    Because


    This curse seemed powerful, but it didn¡¯t pose any threat to him because the Fate Wheel locked his vitality.


    It had to be said that the Longevity bloodline had greatly improved Zhou Feng¡¯s survivability.


    ¡°It seems that the Daemon League has begun to take action¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng began to use his thick Blood Qi to remove the curse power from his body.

 Chapter 555 - Strange Man

    The strange poisonous wounds on Zhou Feng¡¯s body slowly dissipated under the erosion of a large amount of Blood Qi.


    Then, the curse disappeared!


    That¡¯s right! It directly disappeared.


    He forcefully withstood the curse and slowly washed away the power of the curse on his body.


    This was the special function of the Fate Wheel.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity had encountered countless curses and poisons back then, but he still survived until he committed suicide.


    The great Dao of Longevity was a very questionable path.


    This path was not only difficult and rugged, but it was also easy to be targeted. After all, cultivators who pursued the great Dao of Longevity were usually very popular.


    Facing this endless covetousness, Heavenly Venerate Longevity had created the Fate Wheel to lock everything and ignore all damage.


    As long as the Fate Wheel was not damaged, everything else could be slowly restored and replaced.


    In the end, the physical body and the soul were the only parts that could be replaced.


    Even in the crazy thoughts of Heavenly Venerate Longevity, the Fate Wheel would fuse with his will in the future.


    Then, he would become a nail that was ruthlessly nailed into the river of time, becoming an eternal existence.


    These were all ideas that Zhou Feng had obtained from Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    However, it was a pity that Heavenly Venerate Longevity had not succeeded in the end. He had not been able to become an eternal existence in the river of time.


    ¡°Curse! This kind of technique usually has a huge price, and it needs a medium¡­¡±


    After Zhou Feng got rid of the curse power, he began to analyze calmly.


    First of all, the curse techniques could not be used at will. Every time such a technique was used, a huge price had to be paid.


    This meant that he could not be killed by the curse every moment.


    Coupled with the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth, Zhou Feng did not think that someone could kill him from thousands of miles away.


    Therefore, he could explore this place calmly.


    ¡°Improve my strength¡­¡±


    The most important thing for Zhou Feng at this time was probably how to continue to improve himself.


    He needed to improve other aspects of himself and not rely on all kinds of passive skills.


    The best way to improve himself was undoubtedly to integrate all kinds of techniques he had learned into one, forming a system that completely belonged to him.


    This idea had been formed from the beginning, but Zhou Feng felt he needed an opportunity.


    After all, this was not an easy thing to do. Even with the help of the AI, this was still a very difficult task.


    ¡°There should be something I need in the Azure Fox Clan!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt a slight throb. This was a very special connection.


    ¡®Xue Ji!?¡¯


    At that moment, he suddenly thought that the thousands of scriptures in the Azure Fox Clan should be able to help him.


    Zhou Feng had suddenly been enlightened and forcefully accepted Xue Ji.


    From that moment on, he had already become the investment target of the Azure Fox Clan.


    Living off a woman! This wasn¡¯t shameful. Now that he had already broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, he was completely capable of challenging the Azure Fox Clan.


    Soon, Zhou Feng finished planning what he would do next.


    First, he would explore this place. Although the place he was currently in was very strange, there seemed to be some opportunities here according to Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s predictions.


    After exploring this place, Zhou Feng planned to head to the Azure Fox Clan.


    With that mysterious connection, he was not afraid that he would not be able to find the Azure Fox Clan.


    In the end, he could still continue to find trouble with the Daemon League.


    He would never forget that he was in such a sorry state because of them, and they had even tried to curse him to death.


    All of this was thanks to the Daemon League, so his revenge was far from over.


    The next time he found trouble with the Daemon League, it would not be so simple.


    The passive Human Slayer was not high enough! He needed more people to increase this passive skill¡¯s power.


    After his train of thought gradually became clear, Zhou Feng began to walk through the tunnel.


    As for the Dao Origin Rune, he did not know how to use it for the time being. He could only seal it in the green lotus. He would use it when the time was ripe in the future.


    At present, Zhou Feng focused most of his attention on exploring this strange place.


    It was dark and damp, and there was a thick aura of resentment.


    This was the situation in this tunnel.


    The more Zhou Feng walked forward, the more surprised he felt because the man-made marks in the surroundings were very obvious. These tunnels were not naturally formed.


    Someone had deliberately dug them out.


    But why would someone deliberately dig out so many tunnels?


    There were no Spirit Stones here, nor were there any special cultivation resources.


    The environment was also very harsh.


    Digging out so many tunnels was a very taxing task, even for a cultivator.


    What surprised him even more was that the further he walked along the tunnel, the wider it became. He seemed to have reached a node.


    ¡°Buildings? This¡­¡±


    Although the surroundings were dark, Zhou Feng could still see clearly.


    There were dilapidated stairs, collapsed buildings, and a mess of ferns.


    Apparently, people had gathered and lived there for a long time.


    The space wasn¡¯t big, but it wasn¡¯t small either. There were also three or four passages that connected to this node.


    ¡°Are there cultivators living underground? Or are there other races?¡±


    Zhou Feng was surprised by this discovery.


    This was because this environment was completely unsuitable for survival. Except for cultivators and special races, mortals simply couldn¡¯t survive here.


    No! Even ordinary cultivators would find it difficult to survive here.


    Only Zhou Feng, who had broken through to the Dao Enlightenment realm and was able to devour all types of energy, could survive here.


    Zhou Feng began to search the ruins.


    He wanted to see what information was left there.


    Since he had the AI, no hint of information would be missed.


    Moving away a few stones, Zhou Feng saw a skeleton in a tattered Daoist robe.


    There were some blurry words beside the skeleton.


    ¡°Hate¡­ I hate¡­¡±


    Because the sentence was very blurry, Zhou Feng could only analyze a few words.


    And this sentence had no beginning or end. He had no idea what it meant.


    But just as Zhou Feng felt disappointed, the passage above his head actually emitted a whistling sound of rapid movement.


    And this sound was very urgent. It sounded as if something would arrive here in a few seconds.


    Zhou Feng immediately hid.


    ¡®This sounds like a living person.¡¯


    If he could capture a local, he would get some information.


    Zhou Feng urgently needed to know where he was.


    Not long after, a thin and weak figure appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    This figure was very thin and weak. It could even be described as a skeletal figure.


    However, some purple crystals were growing on his face.


    ¡®These purple crystals that look like ores are growing on his body?¡¯


    This was already very strange. What was even stranger was that this person actually discovered Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Who is it! ? Who is hiding there!?¡±


    This person looked in Zhou Feng¡¯s direction, and a vigilant expression appeared on his face.

 Chapter 556 - Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine

    Fei Li was very nervous because he didn¡¯t find anyone there.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know that Fei Li hadn¡¯t noticed him. Instead, he saw that this place had been rummaged through, so he concluded that someone was there.


    No one had been here for a long time; this was an abandoned node.


    Under normal circumstances, no one would come here.


    Most importantly, Fei Li had passed by this place one incense stick ago.


    In order to get rid of those damn monsters, he had already circled this place several times.


    Before this, the building in the middle had not been touched by anyone.


    But now, there were traces that someone had searched it.


    This made Fei Li very nervous. He did not dare to pretend that he did not know. He was afraid that someone would sneak attack him.


    Therefore, he could only gain the upper hand, trying to intimidate this person hiding in the dark.


    ¡°Come out quickly! Otherwise, I won¡¯t be polite!¡±


    Even though he was very timid in his heart, Fei Li still looked murderous on the surface.


    ¡®No traces of cultivation? But his physical body is not inferior to a Soul Altar cultivator?


    ¡®What is that purple crystal on his face?¡¯


    ¡°¡­¡±


    When Fei Li forced himself to be courageous, Zhou Feng scrutinized the person in front of him.


    There were no traces of cultivation, but his strength was not bad.


    That seemingly thin and weak body, regardless of whether it was in terms of strength or defense, was not bad.


    There was actually someone who did not need to cultivate and had his physical body reach such a level?


    This instantly aroused Zhou Feng¡¯s interest.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t intend to hide, so he openly stood out.


    He even took a luminous pearl out of his storage ring. He wanted to observe the person in front of him more clearly.


    ¡°Y-You¡­¡±


    When Zhou Feng stood in front of Fei Li, the latter¡¯s entire body instantly tensed up due to his terror.


    ¡®Lord cultivator! It¡¯s actually a Lord cultivator!¡¯


    Without waiting for Fei Li to continue speaking, the tunnel behind him began to emit some roars.


    These were the monsters that were chasing Fei Li!


    ¡°Move aside!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not wish for Fei Li to die. He had a lot of things he wanted to ask.


    Therefore, he immediately asked Fei Li to move aside.


    Fei Li also reacted quickly and obediently moved aside.


    In the next second, a few monsters that seemed to be pieced together rushed out of the tunnel.


    These monsters looked like giant crabs, but whether it was their limbs or heads, they were all pieced together.


    These monsters were also covered in purple crystals, like Fei Li.


    Their bodies were also exuding resentment and astonishing vitality.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how these monsters were born, but he could confirm that all of this was related to the purple crystals.


    ¡°These purple crystals¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng casually condensed a spear, and these fierce crab monsters were instantly knocked down.


    The vitality in their bodies was also extracted subconsciously.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt the Longevity bloodline in his body become active.


    ¡®This vitality¡­


    Why!? Why is it able to make my Longevity bloodline become active?¡¯


    After all, ever since he successfully condensed the Longevity bloodline, the Longevity bloodline had become extremely difficult to change.


    Although the Longevity bloodline had been changing Zhou Feng¡¯s body and soul, it hadn¡¯t improved at all. No matter how much vitality and longevity substance it absorbed, the Longevity bloodline seemed to have been fixed.


    It was very difficult to continue to improve it. Even the Fate Wheel, apart from being able to fix more vitality, longevity substance, and so on, its other mystical aspects weren¡¯t displayed at all.


    This was slightly different from Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance that Zhou Feng had obtained.


    Locking vitality was only one of the Fate Weel¡¯s many functions. The Fate Wheel also activated vitality Extraction and Origin Drain, Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s signature skills.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t use the Vitality Extraction or Origin Drain forcefully.


    When facing cultivators of the same level, he could only kill his opponent before using the above-mentioned techniques.


    However, he could feel the restlessness of the Longevity bloodline in his body.


    Those purple crystals were of great use to him!


    While Zhou Feng was secretly excited, Fei Li¡¯s jaw almost fell off.


    ¡°So powerful!?¡±


    He had never seen such a terrifying cultivator.


    Fei Li knew these monsters very well.


    After all, these monsters had been chasing him for a long time. If it weren¡¯t for his good luck, he would have died long ago.


    However, the almost invincible monsters in his eyes were like ants that could be crushed at any time in front of Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even waste too much energy and killed all these monsters.


    After dealing with this insignificant matter, Zhou Feng opened his mouth. ¡°Alright! Next! I¡¯ll ask, and you¡¯ll answer!¡±


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    There was no resistance. Fei Li looked very obedient and well-behaved in front of Zhou Feng.


    He didn¡¯t ask too many questions because he knew it was best not to resist Zhou Feng¡¯s will if he wanted to live.


    As long as he answered properly, he might have a chance to survive.


    After all, in Fei Li¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was relatively kind compared to those cruel old masters.


    ¡°Where is this place?¡±


    ¡°Here? I¡­I don¡¯t know¡­¡±


    This first question stumped Fei Li as he didn¡¯t know how to answer this question.


    Before meeting Zhou Feng, he had been mining in a Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine. He didn¡¯t know what this place was or how to leave.


    Zhou Feng frowned.


    ¡°Tell me everything you know!¡±


    This time, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t ask any more questions. Instead, he asked Fei Li to tell him everything he knew.


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    Soon, Zhou Feng extracted a large amount of information.


    First of all, there seemed to be quite a number of cultivators in this place.


    Human cultivators dominated this strange underground world.


    There were even quite a number of people. According to Fei Li¡¯s description, there seemed to be a castle not far from here?


    There were also the purple crystals on Fei Li¡¯s body. This was the side effect of excavating the Sacred Blood Amethyst.


    Sacred Blood Amethyst!


    This was a special ore, but Fei Li did not know what it was used for.


    However, if one was exposed to this ore for a long time, the blood in one¡¯s body would coagulate and turn into purple crystals.


    Finally, the blood in one¡¯s body would coagulate into purple crystals, and they would die from the pain.


    If one wanted to alleviate this symptom, they would need another special mineral.


    The information above was all that Fei Li knew.


    ¡®Sacred Blood Amethyst! This mineral seems to be very useful to me.¡¯


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes.


    A mineral that could activate the Longevity bloodline was definitely a good thing.


    However, he had to be careful about the side effects.


    ¡°Lead the way! Take me to the place where you used to mine!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need too long to think. He let Fei Li lead the way.

 Chapter 557 - Daoist Ziyuan

    At that moment, Fei Li¡¯s heart was beating very fast because he realized that this old cultivator in front of him seemed to be different from the ones he had met before.


    Compared to the cultivators he had met before, Zhou Feng seemed to be too kind to Fei Li.


    ¡®This might be an opportunity!¡¯


    1


    A thought appeared in Fei Li¡¯s heart, but he didn¡¯t dare to express it. He had no right to say anything in front of Zhou Feng.


    Next, Zhou Feng began to head to the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine under Fei Li¡¯s lead.


    During this process, Zhou Feng also slowly communicated with Fei Li, intending to gather more information.


    Although Fei Li didn¡¯t know much about many things, he still collected some useful information.


    For example, food.


    Because of the environment, food was very scarce underground.


    Only some nodes were suitable places to grow food.


    Normal people ate most of the fungi.


    What surprised Zhou Feng was that Fei Li rarely ate.


    Since Fei Li could remember, he had eaten less than ten times.


    Sometimes, he didn¡¯t even know what it felt like to be hungry.


    This was because the feeling of hunger would mysteriously disappear as long as he stayed near the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine.


    His body would also become stronger, and he wouldn¡¯t become weak due to hunger.


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Fei Li¡¯s extremely thin body.


    This situation made him even more interested in this so-called Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine.


    What kind of mineral could have such a miraculous effect?


    It could make a person live without eating or drinking for so long.


    ¡®The vitality is so abundant that it¡¯s far beyond that of an ordinary person. However, the body is very stiff, and it only looks a little better than a zombie¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng followed Fei Li while the AI kept recording Fei Li¡¯s data.


    ¡­


    ¡°The curse failed!?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! It failed! He really has some skills, but this is only the beginning!¡±


    ¡°What exactly is the background of this person? Can the Eastern Land still produce such a monster?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Even though the Daemon League members had expected this outcome, they were still very surprised.


    No matter what, Zhou Feng looked like a monster. It would be very difficult to kill him with such a simple curse.


    However, the curse had been eliminated too quickly!


    It was as if this monster had appeared out of thin air without any foreshadowing.


    Without sufficient resources and cultivation legacies, it was actually impossible for such a monster to appear.


    The path of a cultivator had developed to this point, and resources and legacies had already restricted most cultivators.


    No matter how good one¡¯s aptitude was, one would at most become a small genius without resources and legacies.


    As for becoming a heaven¡¯s pride or a monster, it was basically impossible. Not to mention at a place like the Eastern Land. After the Daemon League¡¯s hundreds of years of efforts, the Eastern Land had already turned from a spiritual land to a wasteland.


    The underground Spiritual Veins were either drained or sealed.


    There was no more soil to cultivate monsters here.


    ¡°Wait! The heavens¡¯ secrets have been concealed!


    ¡°This Zhou Feng actually knows how to conceal his destiny? The positioning effect of this flesh and blood has also weakened a lot!


    ¡°Moreover, the place where this person is located seems to be very special, so¡­¡±


    Originally, the Demon League members thought that even if Zhou Feng could withstand the first wave of curses, he would succumb to the successive streams of curses.


    After all, the Daemon League had gathered all the geniuses of the Eastern Land.


    Among these geniuses, many were proficient in the Dao of Curses.


    However, they realized this matter was not as simple as they thought.


    First, Zhou Feng concealed his destimny.


    1


    Zhou Feng had the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation, so he would not foolishly wait for others to curse and kill him.


    He would naturally make some adjustments.


    In addition, the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth would purify him once a day.


    The so-called curses were actually a joke.


    Most importantly, that strange underground world seemed to be isolated from heaven and earth. It was already very difficult for the Daemon League members to rely on karma to lock onto Zhou Feng.


    None of the bigshots of the Daemon League had expected such a situation.


    Zhou Feng had been able to escape not only because of the Spiritual Vein but also because of his dao soldiers¡¯ explosions.


    The most important reason was that they were certain that Zhou Feng could not escape from their hands.


    When Zhou Feng was fighting Suzerain Infernal Dragon, his aura and soul fluctuations had actually been recorded.


    Not to mention the flesh and blood that fell.


    That was unless Zhou Feng self-destructed once and was reborn.


    That way, the Ascendants of the Daemon League might be unable to find Zhou Feng.


    It was precisely because of this confidence that Zhou Feng managed to escape in the end.


    But now, it seemed that the certainty that they had imagined at the beginning had become less secure.


    This group of Ascendants probably didn¡¯t expect that.


    They really couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng for the time being.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what the Daemon League was thinking.


    Now, under Fei Li¡¯s lead, he had already arrived at a node.


    ¡°This feeling¡­¡±


    When Zhou Feng approached this place, his Longevity bloodline actually began to throb.


    Desire!


    This was an intense desire!


    His Longevity bloodline was actually expressing its desire.


    Sacred Blood Amethyst! Was this really a mineral?


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s perception, the Sacred Blood Amethyst didn¡¯t look like a mineral at all. Instead, it looked like a drop of blood.


    That¡¯s right! In Zhou Feng¡¯s perception, this mineral seemed like a drop of active blood.


    ¡®The opportunity to replenish my Longevity bloodline seems to be here!¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t hesitate and directly walked forward.


    When Fei Li saw this, a trace of fear immediately appeared on his face.


    He didn¡¯t dare to follow Zhou Feng forward because a master cultivator was guarding the place.


    ¡°So intense!¡±


    The closer Zhou Feng got, the stronger the feedback from his body became.


    ¡°Who is it!?¡±


    Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t restrained his aura at all, so the cultivator guarding this place was alerted at the first moment.


    Daoist Ziyuan was in a good mood at the moment.


    Not long ago, a cheap b*stard had run away, which delayed the progress of extracting the Sacred Blood Amethyst.


    However, that cheap b*stard still had a younger sister.


    In order to make an example, he had tortured the cheap bastard¡¯s younger sister to death.


    Then, she was skinned and became a part of the Sacred Blood Robe.


    As long as he persisted for a few more days, the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine would be completely mined.


    At that time, he would be able to leave this damned place.


    However, he was in a good mood until an unfamiliar aura appeared.


    ¡°Strange! This aura¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was extremely fast, so he arrived in front of Daoist Ziyuan in an instant.


    Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s aura gave Zhou Feng a very strange feeling.


    His vitality was also astonishing, but there was a kind of brutality and madness within that vigorous vitality.

 Chapter 558 - Human

    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s aura was not only very strange, but even his attire was peculiar.


    He was dressed in a crimson Daoist robe, which was decorated with¡­ blurry human faces.


    If he was not mistaken, the black marks on it were actual human faces, and they seemed to be wailing in pain. They gave off a depressing feeling as well.


    ¡°No! You are from the surface!¡±


    Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s eyes widened slightly when he saw Zhou Feng.


    The aura Zhou Feng exuded could not have come from the bottom of the abyss. This definitely came from the people from the surface.


    ¡°From the surface?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face did not change much, but he noted down this kind of address in his heart.


    ¡®In other words, the people here are familiar with the surface?¡¯


    For some reason, he felt as if he had touched upon a shocking secret.


    ¡°It¡¯s that b*stard who escaped! I knew it! That technique isn¡¯t stable at all!¡±


    Daoist Ziyuan didn¡¯t even need to think. He immediately figured out that someone had brought Zhou Feng here. Otherwise, no one would have gotten close to this place.


    This should be considered a small mistake.


    At the same time, Daoist Ziyuan seemed to be complaining about something.


    His appearance and tone showed that he didn¡¯t put Zhou Feng in his eyes at all.


    After all, he was invincible with the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine nearby.


    These cultivators from the surface were no different than lambs waiting to be slaughtered when they came to the bottom of the abyss.


    This place was filled with Yin Qi and Demonic Qi.


    For an ordinary cultivator to be able to display 70-80% of their full strength was already impressive.


    ¡°You! You¡¯d better surrender! Maybe I can let you live a few more days if I¡¯m happy.¡±


    Daoist Ziyuan looked very arrogant at this time.


    Obviously, he didn¡¯t put Zhou Feng in his eyes. He even thought that Zhou Feng would be a decent slave.


    ¡®It¡¯s better to extract his soul¡­¡¯


    Originally, Zhou Feng wanted to say something but changed his mind.


    He needed to understand this Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine.


    Compared to a slave like Fei Li, Daoist Ziyuan should know a lot of things.


    Thus, Zhou Feng planned to attack directly.


    In the next second, however, Daoist Ziyuan took the initiative to attack.


    Seeing that Zhou Feng was silent, Daoist Ziyuan took out a mirror, and a ray of purple light shot toward Zhou Feng at lightning speed.


    It was too fast, so there was no way for him to dodge.


    The surging energy erupted like tidal waves, and Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to undergo a drastic change.


    Purple crystals appeared on his body.


    That¡¯s right! Just like the purple crystals on Fei Li¡¯s body, his body seemed to have been polluted at this moment.


    ¡°Haha! Kid, you¡¯re still a little green!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng was hit, Daoist Ziyuan immediately smiled.


    ¡®Sure enough, these people from the surface are not vigilant at all.¡¯


    However, it was also because the Amethyst Mirror was powerful enough. If it were any other dao artifact, it would not have this kind of power.


    ¡®No warning?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a bit confused. The AI hadn¡¯t given him any warning just now, while his Battle Instinct hadn¡¯t been triggered either.


    This was a bizarre matter.


    Because no matter what, the AI would always operate Hexadirectional Calculation and calculate the good and bad.


    Needless to say, his passive Battle Instincts would always give him a warning before he was in danger.


    Therefore, it was impossible for someone to sneak attack him under normal circumstances successfully.


    The purple crystals on Zhou Feng¡¯s body slowly fell off and made crisp sounds upon touch with the ground.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body didn¡¯t feel any discomfort. Instead, it became even more powerful.


    The Longevity bloodline instantly received some nourishment!


    Then, Zhou Feng¡¯s muscles and bones began to tremble like thunder.


    ¡°H-How is this possible!?¡±


    After Daoist Ziyuan discovered Zhou Feng¡¯s condition, his entire being was in a state of shock.


    He had never seen anyone who could ignore the contamination of the Sacred Blood after being illuminated by the Amethyst Mirror.


    The Amethyst Mirror in Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s hand was made from Sacred Blood Amethyst.


    This Amethyst Mirror was extremely fragile. It needed to be recharged every time it was used, and it would shatter upon contact.


    But it was still able to be called a dao artifact because it contained a trace of the law of the great Dao.


    One would be contaminated with Sacred Blood.


    And no one who the Sacred Blood had tainted would survive.


    Even Daoist Ziyuan was the same. Only the legendary Sacred Blood race was immune to the Sacred Blood¡¯s contamination effect. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t be wearing this disgusting robe.


    Still, facts were facts. Zhou Feng was not only not contaminated by the Sacred Blood but also looked refreshed.


    ¡®Not good!¡¯


    Daoist Ziyuan could feel the aura of death!


    Without warning, a violent torrent of Blood Qi rushed out like a volcanic eruption and condensed into a fist.


    This fist seemed to be able to penetrate heaven and earth, and Daoist Ziyuan instantly felt unimaginable pain assaulting his chest.


    The human-faced clothes on his body began to wail even wildly, and countless voices rang out in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    Can you imagine it?


    This feeling was as if thousands of people were calling you to wake up in your ears.


    Even Zhou Feng¡¯s state of mind was disturbed for a moment.


    Fortunately, he swung out another punch.


    This punch was also enhanced by the passive Human Slayer and crushed Daoist Ziyuan.


    In the next second, apart from his head, Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s body turned into a meat patty and collapsed on the ground.


    Crushing! This was absolute crushing!


    Zhou Feng might not be able to contend against an Ascendant, but he could crush anyone below that realm.


    The passive Human Slayer¡¯s 30,000 stacks gave each of his punches and kicks a terrifying power.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even use his full strength. With just a simple punch and the passive Human Slayer, he directly crushed Daoist Ziyuan.


    ¡°Such power!¡±


    Daoist Ziyuan was scared silly.


    ¡°These clothes¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s clothes.


    After taking two punches, Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s body turned into a meat patty, yet his clothes were still intact.


    Surprisingly, the faces were even clearer, and the smell of blood and decay started to become pungent.


    ¡°AH!¡±


    ¡°AH!!!¡±


    Faint cries started to ring in the tunnel.


    ¡°This voice¡­ This voice is!¡±


    Fei Li, hiding in the distance, suddenly raised his head because he heard a familiar voice.

 Chapter 559 - Not a Normal Human?

    Fei Li was instantly filled with courage upon hearing this familiar voice and rushed out from the side.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Yan¡¯er!¡±


    Amidst the many screams, Fei Li had accurately heard his sister¡¯s voice.


    Then, he looked at the scene in front of him.


    A human face appeared on Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s clothes.


    This face was 90% similar to his sister¡¯s.


    This result was hard for Fei Li to accept.


    Although he knew that his escape might have affected his sister, Fei Li still broke down upon verifying her tragic fate.


    ¡°This robe is really strange¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng punched again.


    This kind of pure power suppressed the ear-piercing voices.


    Zhou Feng was a living monster in Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s eyes. He had never seen a person with such terrifying strength.


    Just by relying on his physical strength and Blood Qi, he could crush him.


    ¡®It can¡¯t go on like this!¡¯


    Since Daoist Ziyuan couldn¡¯t defeat Zhou Feng, his mind was filled with thoughts of how to escape.


    ¡®This monster isn¡¯t familiar with me. Perhaps I¡­¡¯


    Daoist Ziyuan was lying limply on the ground.


    At that moment, his body suddenly squirmed wildly, and his head bounced off like a spring!


    Daoist Ziyuan should have completely lost the ability to move at this time.


    His body had been smashed into a meat patty, and only his head was intact.


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know why, Daoist Ziyuan looked very energetic even with such heavy injuries.


    According to normal logic, Daoist Ziyuan was just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.


    However, what was unexpected was that the head of Daoist Ziyuan head jumped far away.


    And his body, which had been smashed into a meat patty, began to turn into a branch. The scarlet wood sprouts turned into vines and rolled toward Zhou Feng.


    The entire process was completed in one go without any hindrance.


    It could even be said that he had escaped perfectly.


    ¡°Brat from the surface! You¡¯ll soon know how powerful the Sacred Blood race is!¡±


    Daoist Ziyuan had already begun to plan how to take revenge.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s current performance was stellar, and his strength had crushed him, they were still at the bottom of the abyss.


    It was not possible to survive just because one was strong.


    This was the territory of the Sacred Blood race, and only the Sacred Blood members were the eternal rulers of this place.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Just as Daoist Ziyuan was thinking about how to take revenge on Zhou Feng, an arrow pierced through his head.


    Zhou Feng had condensed a void bow and arrow, triggered the passive Piercing Yang, and killed Daoist Ziyuan, who was trying to escape.


    Next, he would use this opportunity to search Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s soul. He should be able to find some information before Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s soul completely dissipated.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Surprisingly, the moment Daoist Ziyuan died, his soul was attracted away by something.


    Under the perception of Zhou Feng¡¯s soul, Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s soul seemed to have been swallowed by a black hole.


    He couldn¡¯t find it at all, and his plan to search his soul also failed.


    ¡°Yan¡¯er!¡±


    Fei Li, who had witnessed Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s death with his own eyes, immediately reacted at this time.


    He directly rushed toward the robe.


    The scarlet wood shoots that had just crawled toward Zhou Feng turned into ashes when Daoist Ziyuan died, while the robe became silent.


    The wails and screams from before had now completely disappeared.


    The original crimson robe had also turned into a pure white robe.


    On that pure white color, the grayish-black human faces were somewhat prominent.


    ¡°Yan¡¯er isn¡¯t dead yet! I beg you! I beg you! Save my little sister!¡±


    Fei Li tightly grabbed onto the robe and knelt in front of Zhou Feng. His face revealed traces of madness, and his eyes turned red.


    ¡°I¡¯m willing to give up everything! Please! Please!¡±


    During this process, Fei Li became more and more agitated, and a violent aura began to emerge from his body.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on?¡¯


    Sensing that violent aura, Zhou Feng suddenly had a strange feeling.


    The person in front of him didn¡¯t seem like a real person.


    This feeling was very strange. Even though Fei Li looked no different from a real person at this moment, the emotion that was revealed, that angry look, made Zhou Feng feel it was somewhat mechanical for some reason.


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    When Zhou Feng thought of this, he also discovered many flaws.


    Mining!


    Why would a mortal like Fei Li, who didn¡¯t have any cultivation base, be used as a miner?


    In the cultivation world, regardless of whether it was mining for ores, even if it was the most common Spiritual Vein, a mortal could not participate in it.


    Wanting to mine a Spiritual Vein? The Qi Refinement realm was the lowest standard.


    Without a certain cultivation level, it was impossible to do such a thing.


    Something like forcing a large group of mortals to dig a Spiritual Vein was unheard of.


    Other than the fact that mortals weren¡¯t qualified to excavate, there was also the fact that the efficiency was too low.


    How long would it take for mortals to excavate a Spiritual Vein?


    Therefore, such matters were usually handed over to cultivators who cultivated special abilities.


    Or, it could be handed over to sect elders to solve, just like the Daemon League.


    When they encountered a Spiritual Vein, they would directly send out a large number of Ascendants and then coordinate with the elites of the sect to transport the entire Spiritual Vein.


    Therefore, using a mortal to mine was a strange thing in itself.


    Even though Fei Li¡¯s body was stronger than a mortal¡¯s, the efficiency was still too low compared to using divine abilities to mine.


    The productivity of high-realm cultivators was actually astounding.


    As mentioned before, a cultivator who specialized in farming only needed a few days to cultivate food for tens of thousands of people that would last them for a year.


    Mortals and cultivators lived in two different worlds.


    The only function of mortals was to provide a steady stream of cultivator seedlings.


    Then, the resources that cultivators occasionally leaked from their fingers were enough to support the survival of countless mortals.


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s current understanding and also the conclusion he reached after observing for a long time.


    ¡°Quickly! Save her! I told you to save her!¡±


    The tyrannical aura on Fei Li¡¯s body intensified upon seeing that Zhou Feng did not respond.


    However, the place instantly fell silent in the next second.


    Fei Li¡¯s head and body were separated.


    ¡°No blood?¡±


    After casually severing Fei Li¡¯s head, Zhou Feng was surprised to find that there was no blood splattering out.


    Even Fei Li¡¯s body structure seemed to be a little strange.


    There was only a small amount of muscle and lubricant-like liquid instead of blood.


    The bones were not white either. Even after the head was severed, the abundant vitality in the body did not dissipate.


    If it was a normal person, the vitality in the body would quickly dissipate at the moment of death.


    In Fei Li¡¯s case, his vitality dissipated very slowly.


    ¡°Not a human? This is more like a specially bred creature? It just has a certain level of intelligence?¡±


    Zhou Feng was even more curious now.

 Chapter 560 - The Longevity Bloodline’s Transformation

    ¡°This is really strange!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the people who were continuously mining and had a strange feeling in his heart.


    These people were the same as Fei Li. Not only were they as thin as firewood, but their skin was also dark gray.


    They didn¡¯t even seem to have any unnecessary thoughts.


    Each and every one of them was very mechanically holding the pickaxes while mining.


    Even though he was standing right behind them, these people still didn¡¯t have the slightest reaction, just like robots.


    Originally, Zhou Feng wanted to get some information from these people.


    But now, it seemed that other than Daoist Ziyuan, the people here shouldn¡¯t be able to give him a satisfactory answer.


    ¡°Forget it. It¡¯s better to explore slowly.¡±


    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t discouraged. He had plenty of time anyway.


    As long as he explored slowly, he would eventually understand the whole picture.


    Now, he was trying to extract Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s vitality because he had a feeling that there was something in Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s body that could perfect his Longevity bloodline.


    Of course, there was also the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine.


    The Sacred Blood Amethyst that was emitting a purple glow also emitted a faint trace of vitality.


    ¡°Extract!¡±


    Zhou Feng directly used Origin Drain and plundered everyone¡¯s vitality and longevity substances.


    Suddenly, the surrounding Sacred Blood Amethysts turned into a surging wave and pounced on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    A special power endlessly surged into Zhou Feng¡¯s body, like a swallow returning to its nest, becoming the nourishment of Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body instantly began to emit a faint light.


    His Longevity bloodline was like a great river that ran through heaven and earth.


    A strange phenomenon was born at the same time.


    A tree! A huge tree that seemed to hold up the sky appeared behind Zhou Feng.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was merely standing there. He was like an immortal king from the nine heavens, looking down on everything in the world.


    This phenomenon did not stop. Zhou Feng could faintly hear the sound of his blood flowing.


    The Longevity bloodline began to transform Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body, expelling countless impurities.


    One had to know that Zhou Feng had experienced a rebirth, and his physical body was reconstructed to a fundamental level.


    He had never eaten ordinary food since then. He always relied on Spiritual Qi to satisfy his hunger. Yet, he could still expel so many impurities.


    This was something Zhou Feng had not expected.


    Following that, the rumbling sound of transformation slowly disappeared.


    Pure red Blood Qi washed over his entire body, and it was as if his body had turned into glass¡ªhis meridians, bones, and blood were all clearly visible.


    Zhou Feng let out a breath, and the moss in the vicinity actually began to grow frantically.


    In the next second, his pores began to exude traces of turbid air.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened as if he did not dare to believe it.


    ¡®The Longevity bloodline has transformed? Why did it transform so suddenly? Was it because of the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine? Or was it because of that fella with the Daoist robe?¡¯


    Zhou Feng felt his entire body become much more relaxed. Under his influence, the surrounding environment also began to change bit by bit.


    Just like before, the Yin Qi and Demonic Qi in the surroundings were sucked into his body.


    Then, he exhaled a special kind of clear air. Although some turbid air would still be expelled from his pores, Zhou Feng seemed to have transformed into an air purifier, improving the surrounding environment bit by bit.


    This was the result of the Longevity bloodline¡¯s transformation.


    1


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity had been even more terrifying back then. As long as he stepped in a patch of land, a towering tree would grow out in the next second.


    2


    Even the lives of those who were close to Heavenly Venerate Longevity would be extended by one day.


    The longevity substances could not be suppressed at all. Even if Heavenly Venerate Longevity tried his best to restrain his own influence, he was still unable to suppress it completely.


    This was also one of the reasons Heavenly Venerate Longevity was becoming more and more lonely.


    Countless cultivators wanted to stay by Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s side, intending to enjoy the benefits of extending their lives.


    However, prolonging one¡¯s life could not extend one¡¯s life for a lifetime.


    Not many cultivators could suppress the greed in their hearts when their lifespans were about to reach the end.


    They would harbor evil thoughts toward Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Even the people closest to them were no exception.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity had experienced countless betrayals, and his heart was tired.


    Even if one could suppress the greed in their heart, Heavenly Venerate Longevity could only watch his good friend die of old age bit by bit.


    That kind of feeling wasn¡¯t something an ordinary person could endure.


    Now, Zhou Feng had also begun to experience this process. The transformation of his Longevity bloodline had directly extended his life by many years.


    It had even begun to affect his surroundings.


    This state was dangerous for him.


    This was because he didn¡¯t have enough strength to protect himself.


    ¡°So, I need to work hard to suppress the leakage of the longevity substances?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned.


    His body needed to change.


    The Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine was definitely something good since it could transform his Longevity bloodline.


    Could it be the legacy of Heavenly Venerate Longevity?


    Otherwise, there was no reason for it to transform his Longevity bloodline.


    After receiving Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, he was very clear about it.


    Back then, Heavenly Venerate Longevity had left behind countless inheritances in the hopes that a monstrous prodigy would rise and cultivate to his level one day.


    In that way, Heavenly Venerate Longevity would have a good friend in the same realm.


    1


    Therefore, finding Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s legacy here was not strange.


    ¡°AI!¡±


    Zhou Feng directly handed the task of restraining his aura and suppressing the leakage of the longevity substances to the AI.


    Meanwhile, he began searching and investigating this place to find useful information.


    First, Zhou Feng picked up the human-faced robe from the ground.


    It was ice-cold!


    This was the first feeling that this human-faced robe gave him.


    From the battle just now, it could be seen that this human-faced robe was extremely tough. Under his attacks, there was not the slightest change.


    ¡°Eh? This robe¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng held the human-faced robe in his hand and realized that it could conceal his aura.


    ¡®Could it be that this robe¡­¡¯


    A thought suddenly arose in his heart.


    ¡°Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine! Why is it called that? What does Sacred Blood mean?¡±


    Zhou Feng put the human-faced robe into his storage ring and continued to search other places.


    Soon, Zhou Feng found some books and a few storage rings. Obviously, these things should all belong to Daoist Ziyuan.


    Zhou Feng felt that the fog had been cleared a little.


    However, just as he was excited, countless eyes lit up from the dark place.


    Unconsciously, with Zhou Feng as the center, many monsters gathered around him.


    And these monsters were very tacitly keeping a distance so that Zhou Feng could not detect them.


    They were waiting! Waiting for an opportunity!


    1

 Chapter 561 - The Bottom of the Abyss

    Zhou Feng had discovered a lot of information from Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s belongings.


    The most important ones were the Sacred Blood race and the name of this strange underground world¡ªthe Bottom of the Abyss.


    This was an underground layer that was very far from the surface.


    If one wanted to return to the surface from the Bottom of the Abyss, they would have to go through a special passage.


    Otherwise, it would be impossible to leave.


    It was also because of this reason that there was no sunlight shining on the Bottom of the Abyss all year round, giving rise to countless evil spirits.


    As for the Sacred Blood race, they were the rulers of the Bottom of the Abyss.


    Besides this, Zhou Feng could not obtain more information about the Sacred Blood race.


    There was also the fact that he found some refined crimson ores in the storage ring.


    These ores were the refinement product of the Sacred Blood Amethyst. They were crismon, had no protruding purple crystals, gave off an extremely pure feeling, and could increase the bloodline power in one¡¯s body.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Longevity bloodline could also be enhanced.


    ¡°Could these ores be the condensed blood of some mighty figure?¡±


    Sensing the strangeness of the crimson ores, he could not help but make a speculation.


    This was because he had never heard of such ores that could increase one¡¯s bloodline power.


    This effect was comparable to all kinds of panaceas and miraculous medicines.


    In addition to the purified Sacred Blood Amethyst, Daoist Ziyuan also had a few cultivation techniques in his storage ring.


    Among them, the most eye-catching technique was the one to refine the human-faced robe.


    ¡°Sacred Blood Robe! Cut off the face that carries the anger and resentment, using a special method¡­¡±


    The method of making the Sacred Blood Robe was very simple.


    One had to cut off the faces of those in a special negative state, fuse them into a piece of primitive cloth, and solidify it.


    Once the prototype was formed, they only needed to continuously add new skin, and a brand new Sacred Blood Robe would be formed.


    The most important effect of the Sacred Blood Robe was its aura-isolating ability and that it could protect the wearer from being contaminated by the Sacred Blood Mine.


    It turned out that there were many contaminated Sacred Blood Mines at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    As long as one was close to it, they would be easily contaminated, and the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine was also very easily stimulated.


    If one wanted to mine, they would have to use pure raw strength and excavate it bit by bit. At the same time, one had to purify the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine bit by bit.


    At this time, Zhou Feng finally understood what was going on.


    Suddenly, the AI sent him a message.


    According to the speculation of Hexadirectional Calculation, he would soon face danger.


    ¡°Is it because I didn¡¯t completely conceal my aura?¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately knew the reason.


    The transformation of the Longevity bloodline prevented him from suppressing the leaked Longevity substances and aura.


    Thus, he attracted some enemies.


    However, the strength of these enemies was probably not that great. Otherwise, the divination wouldn¡¯t show that he would just face danger.


    As if they could no longer hold themselves back, the densely packed figures appeared at the end of the tunnel.


    One by one, the monsters charged toward Zhou Feng like a tide.


    ¡°What kind of monsters are these?¡±


    Zhou Feng was not surprised upon seeing these monsters. Instead, a trace of doubt appeared on his face.


    This was because these monsters did not have a fixed form. All of them had strange shapes, and many of them had human faces. These human faces appeared in different places, but they all had the same bitter expression.


    In this dim environment, they still looked very frightening.


    However, Zhou Feng had experienced so much that such a spectacle would not scare him at all.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng threw one punch!


    Because of the transformation of his Longevity bloodline, each of Zhou Feng¡¯s moves would erupt with strength that far exceeded the limits of his physical body now.


    With the help of the AI, his violent Blood Qi was like an erupting volcano, gathering into an incomparable force.


    Zhou Feng would definitely be able to erupt with such power under normal circumstances. This was because it would cause a huge injury to his physical body. Zhou Feng did not dare to do so even if he had all sorts of passive recovery abilities. In case his opponent found a flaw, it would be troublesome.


    But it was different now. After the transformation of his Longevity bloodline, the Fate Wheel became even stronger.


    The injury caused in that instant was healed in less than a second.


    The Dao of Longevity was strong because of its life-risking ability.


    As long as he had 10% of his Fate Wheel, no matter how severe the injury was, there was a possibility of recovery.


    Zhou Feng was already considering whether he should learn more skills that would hurt both sides.


    For example, some techniques that would heavily injure him first and then increase his strength.


    He wasn¡¯t afraid of getting injured anyway.


    This punch landed.


    The monsters that came like a wave immediately exploded like tomatoes, and flesh and blood flew everywhere while broken limbs and bones scattered all over the ground. Zhou Feng¡¯s face was also stained with some blood.


    ¡°What!? Human Slayer is triggered!? And my talent¡­¡±


    At this moment, Zhou Feng felt that many of his passive skills had been triggered.


    The first thing that triggered was the passive Human Slayer.


    ¡®However, isn¡¯t Human Slayer targeted at humans?¡¯


    If he remembered correctly, the passive Human Slayer could increase the damage output by 1 unit every time he killed a human.


    1


    Monsters and ghosts were not in this range.


    But just now¡­


    A fierce aura emerged behind him without waiting for Zhou Feng to think further.


    The stone wall behind him suddenly collapsed, and a ray of cold light flickered in the dark environment.


    A big bug!


    This big bug carried a huge shell on its back, and its two forelimbs were sickles.


    An upside-down human face was located below.


    This sudden sneak attack came at an extremely good time. It happened just as Zhou Feng punched out.


    It broke through the stone wall behind him. Under normal circumstances, no one would have thought of this.


    Zhou Feng frowned. He did not choose to dodge but chose to meet this move head-on.


    The sharp sickle stabbed into his back but did not pierce through!


    Zhou Feng had been standing still since the beginning, so he had already triggered the passive Immovable Mountain.


    Therefore, this sneak attack had no meaning to him at all.


    He casually punched the monster into meat paste.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Before the monster died, it actually let out a human-like scream of fear.


    Meanwhile, the passive Human Slayer gained another stack.


    Such a situation made Zhou Feng¡¯s mood slightly heavy.


    The Bottom of the Abyss seemed to be a little crazy.


    Next, it was time for Zhou Feng to slaughter crazily.


    Although these human-faced monsters were all terrifying, and some of them were even not weaker than some Divine Ability cultivators, they were things that could be casually slaughtered before Zhou Feng.


    Soon, the noisy environment became quiet again, and Zhou Feng began to extract vitality and longevity substances.


    He found that these human-faced monsters¡¯ vitality was rich, which was simply good food for Zhou Feng.


    All the human-faced monsters could become nutrients for the growth of the Longevity bloodline.

 Chapter 562 - Immortal Golden Bones!?

    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s efforts, these human-faced monsters were all turned into his resources.


    After devouring their longevity substances and vitality, his Fate Wheel became even more complex.


    It even began to form a second Fate Wheel.


    Before this, his Fate Wheel was just a ring that bound Zhou Feng¡¯s vitality.


    Now, it was beginning to generate a second ring.


    The Longevity bloodline seemed to have entered the accumulation stage, the bloodline power¡¯s calm period.


    It was absorbing enough resources and waiting for an opportunity to explode.


    Other than that, all kinds of passive skills were crazily superimposing.


    Zhou Feng was really able to see his strength increase with the naked eye.


    In any case, he only killed some human-faced monsters and felt that his strength was increasing rapidly, from his physical body to his soul and other aspects.


    It was even far from reaching its limit.


    However, this kind of improvement was very simple and unadorned, unlike those legendary monsters.


    After one night of enlightenment, his strength increased by leaps and bounds.


    ¡°The progress bar is also full! So, those human-faced monsters¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng also took a look at the skill panel at this time.


    By just killing those human-faced monsters, the progress bar had skyrocketed. He could now draw a new passive skill.


    In addition to the previous signs, Zhou Feng had a lot of guesses about those human-faced monsters.


    The thing that puzzled him the most was that these human-faced monsters seemed to have souls, yet their souls would be taken away when they died.


    That¡¯s right! It was as if they were snatched by something!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was powerful, so he could still feel that those souls were very weak.


    All these signs indicated that those human-faced monsters were man-made.


    Still, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t overanalyze things. To him, increasing his strength and integrating a suitable cultivation system was what he should do.


    ¡°New passive skill!¡±


    Of course, the most important matter at the moment was to draw out new passive skills.


    It didn¡¯t seem like much time had passed since he drew the last passive skill.


    If he could maintain this speed and obtain passive skills for the rest of the time, gaining 10,000 passive skills wouldn¡¯t be difficult.


    After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s lifespan was longer than that of an ordinary cultivator.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    This drawing process was very smooth.


    Immortal Golden Bones: Your bones can absorb the immortal aura of special ores. Every time you absorb a trace of Immortal Qi, your physical defense will increase by 1%.


    2


    [Note: In the end, your bones can be transformed into true immortal golden bones.]


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was stunned.


    This passive skill seemed to be different from the previous passive skills as it had a collection requirement.


    Simply put, the more ores he collected and extracted their immortal aura, the more indestructible his physical body would become.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how to describe this passive skill at all because it was peculiar.


    He didn¡¯t have a specific understanding of the Immortal Golden Bones.


    But every strand of Immortal Qi could increase his defense by 1%?


    Didn¡¯t this mean that 100 strands of Immortal Qi could double his defense attribute?


    Wasn¡¯t this invincible?


    Such passive skill was practically equivalent to a powerful defensive dao artifact.


    As Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation increased, the passive skills he gained seemed to become more and more OP.


    Ever since he gained the last few passive skills, it seemed that there were fewer and fewer passives to make up the numbers.


    Powerful passive skills were also becoming more and more common.


    Take the passive Immovable Mountain, for example. Although this passive skill was definitely strong, it paled in comparison with the new passive skills.


    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, then I have another mission now? To collect special ores with an immortal aura?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt the burden on his body become heavier.


    Special ores with an immortal aura, just what kind of ore would have an immortal aura?


    The legendary Adamantine seemed to have an immortal aura.


    Gold essence was the most popular material for flying swords.


    However, gold essence was scarce. A gold mine could only produce gold essence the size of a fingernail.


    ¡°I seem to have collected a lot of ores!¡±


    Zhou Feng remembered the spoils of war he had accumulated.


    There were all kinds of items in his storage ring. After all, he had killed countless enemies since his power rose.


    These enemies had contributed all sorts of things, and there were also many ores.


    As such, he poured all the ores out of his storage ring.


    Immediately, Ink Crystal, Purple Silver, White Brilliant Steel, Earth Crystal, and other very common ores filled the area before his feet.


    Zhou Feng took a small piece of Adamantine in his hand. Some unlucky guy should have contributed this piece of Adamantine.


    When he took the Adamantine in his hand, the piece of Adamantine suddenly melted in his palm.


    After removing some minor impurities, this piece of Adamantine turned into liquid gold and completely fused into his body.


    After that, Zhou Feng could feel that his bones had become a little stronger.


    ¡°It¡¯s actually like this¡­¡±


    This was something he had never imagined accomplishing. His bones could be strengthened in such a way now.


    This was a great benefit. If his bones really turned into Immortal Golden Bones in the future, coupled with the Fate Wheel¡¯s control over his vitality, wouldn¡¯t he be able to ignore most attacks?


    Although his flesh and skin could regrow effortlessly, it took a lot of time to heal his broken bones.


    ¡°The Bottom of the Abyss! There should be a lot of mineral veins here! And if I refine all of them, will I be able to refine a strand of Immortal Qi?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the pile of minerals in front of him as he was deep in thought.


    There was also the Daemon League that controlled the easternmost land, moving almost all the Spiritual Veins in the eastern land.


    There should be all kinds of top-grade ores in the Daemon League¡¯s treasury.


    ¡®If¡­¡¯


    In any case, he and the Daemon League were mortal enemies.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had already harbored a crazy idea in his mind before this.


    That was to slaughter all the members of the Daemon League to stack his passive skills and increase his strength.


    After all, the Daemon League was the most populated place in the eastern land.


    ¡°But before that, I still need to leave this damn place!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t hesitate.


    He was ready to start exploring this place. There were still many secrets in this place.


    The Scarlet Blood Mines were also very important to him as they could improve his Longevity bloodline.


    Everything had to be done step by step, and the food had to be eaten bite by bite.


    His life was long enough, and he was able to grow little by little.

 Chapter 563 - The Legend of the Abyss

    Zhou Feng gained a new passive skill and began to explore his surroundings.


    Of course, before this, he had already found a way to conceal his aura.


    At the same time, he did not have many inhibitions and directly put on the Scarlet Blood Robe.


    This could conceal his aura to the greatest extent and avoid accidents, and it was a pretty good treasure.


    Don¡¯t treat it as a disgusting piece of clothing.


    It had the effect of calming one¡¯s mind once they wore it.


    Thus, he wandered around there, and the AI would record everything.


    Naturally, it was impossible to get lost.


    The AI was even able to constantly analyze the changes in the surrounding environment.


    From there, he could find the path to the center of the abyss.


    If it weren¡¯t wrong, there was definitely a gathering place for cultivators at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    Zhou Feng explored this place swiftly with the AI¡¯s assistance. He didn¡¯t waste much time before he found some traces.


    Then, he continued to move forward along with these traces.


    The originally narrow and long passage around him also gradually became wider.


    There were even glowing fungi on both sides. It seemed like they were deliberately planted to illuminate the place.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng sensed someone was not far from him. They exuded a strange aura and vigorous vitality.


    Zhou Feng merged himself into the shadows, walked at a moderate pace, and caught up with the person in front of him in no time.


    ¡°Eh? Who Is It?¡±


    Zhou Feng was soon discovered because he didn¡¯t completely conceal his aura.


    ¡°Scarlet Blood Robe? So, It¡¯s a fellow Daoist! Fellow Daoist, you are¡­¡±


    Yuan Hu was originally a little nervous, but he immediately relaxed when he saw the Scarlet Blood Robe.


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but feel a little strange.


    ¡®He relaxed his vigilance just because of this Scarlet Blood Robe? Could it be that it has some significance?¡¯


    At this time, Zhou Feng gave up the idea of making a move. He needed to collect information and understand this unfamiliar place.


    The more he knew, the easier it was to move around.


    After Yuan Hu saw the Scarlet Blood Robe, he didn¡¯t have too many suspicions and invited Zhou Feng to come over.


    At this time, Zhou Feng could finally see Yuan Hu¡¯s appearance clearly.


    If it was just his head, he would look like a middle-aged man full of heroic spirit.


    However, his body was covered with greenish-black scales, and his hands were fiery-red insect limbs. He looked completely out of place.


    Moreover, his lower body was joined with a pair of incomparably thick legs.


    He looked like a monster that was piecing things together.


    Although Zhou Feng was very curious, his face showed that he was used to it.


    He sat down very casually.


    Then, he began to chat with Yuan Hu, wanting to get some information.


    ¡°I wonder why fellow Daoist is so down and out?¡±


    Yuan Hu¡¯s face betrayed a hint of flattery.


    However, he had a good grasp of the situation. He didn¡¯t seem like a bootlicker, but he still spoke respectfully to Zhou Feng.


    ¡°I just ran into some trouble! So¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change, and his voice was calm. He pretended to be Daoist Ziyuan and told him that a strange man had ambushed him.


    ¡°Could this person be a cultivator from the surface?¡±


    Yuan Hu¡¯s face was filled with shock because the Bottom of the Abyss had not come into contact with the surface for a long time.


    At the same time, Yuan Hu was slightly happy.


    This was a good opportunity!


    In Yuan Hu¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was a Sacred Blood noble wearing human-faced clothes. If he fawned on him well, he might be able to take off.


    What Zhou Feng might not know was that not just anyone could wear the Sacred Blood Robe.


    Only those with the Sacred Blood bloodline could wear it, and they would not be affected at all.


    One would suffer if they did not have the Sacred Blood bloodline and were forced to wear the Sacred Blood Robe.


    The Sacred Blood Robe was made of countless human faces interwoven together and filled with resentment and negative emotions. As such, the wails of the dead would haunt the wearer.


    ¡®Is there a misunderstanding? This is also good!¡¯


    Zhou Feng found that Yuan Hu seemed to be more respectful to him though the Ai.


    Obviously, the man in front of him had misunderstood something.


    However, there was no need for him to explain. He could take this opportunity to learn more.


    At the same time, he found that Yuan Hu had a sense of disharmony.


    This sense of disharmony was like a conflict between two different cultivation techniques.


    This might be a good point of entry.


    ¡°I wonder what fellow Daoist plans to do next?¡±


    Yuan Hu began to carefully inquire about Zhou Feng¡¯s next plans.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s reply was very short.


    ¡°Recuperate! Take revenge!¡±


    At this time, he didn¡¯t dare to say too much. If he were to give himself away, it wouldn¡¯t be good.


    ¡°Then, fellow Daoist, you must go to Ash City¡­¡±


    When Yuan Hu heard this, he immediately struck while the iron was hot and invited Zhou Feng to Ash City to recuperate for some time.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t wish for more.


    ¡°But!¡±


    Of course, he was still maintaining the image of a taciturn person on the surface.


    Yuan Hu didn¡¯t care about this. Instead, he kept finding topics to talk about.


    During this process, Zhou Feng obtained a large amount of information.


    The Bottom of the Abyss wasn¡¯t actually a place that existed since ancient times.


    The formation of this place began after the Daemon League started extracting the spiritual Veins.


    One had to know Spiritual Veins could not only provide a large amount of Spiritual Qi to a land, but it could suppress a lot of bad omens and slowly dispel the resentment and Demonic Qi.


    However, the Daemon League had started to take away all the Spiritual Veins in Eastern Land many years ago.


    The Central Plains¡¯ sects were also taking advantage of the situation.


    Therefore, the Spiritual Veins in the Eastern Land began to disappear rapidly.


    What was left were only some huge passages.


    During this process, the cultivators and people who resisted the Daemon League hid underground in order to avoid being chased.


    Since so many Spiritual Veins had been extracted from the underground, there was a lot of space for them to hide.


    After that, the Bottom of the Abyss was formed.


    And there was a reason why Yuan Hu had become like this.


    The environment became extremely harsh without the Spiritual Veins suppressing the underground resentment. If one wanted to survive here, one had to have a sufficiently strong body.


    Coincidentally, under this situation, someone discovered the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines.


    The so-called Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines were formed when a mighty expert¡¯s blood tainted a few ordinary amethyst mines. After tens of millions of years of evolution, the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines were formed..


    And according to Yuan Hu, the Bottom of the Abyss was actually the burial place of that mighty figure.


    The Spiritual Veins that had once been there were merely the bones of that expert!


    ¡®Why does this legend sound a little like Pangu transforming heaven and earth!?¡¯


    The more Zhou Feng listened, the more confused he became.

 Chapter 564 - City Lordess

    According to Yuan Hu¡¯s description, the formation of the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines came from a cultivator¡¯s body.


    The bones turned into Spiritual Veins, and the blood turned into the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines.


    The various parts of the body also turned into various earthly treasures.


    This legend was very similar to that of Pangu transforming heaven and earth.


    However, Zhou Feng remained doubtful. If this legend was true¡­ Then how big would this cultivator¡¯s body be?


    However, since there was such a legend, this indicated there must be a reason.


    When Zhou Feng thought about how the refined crimson ores benefited his Longevity bloodline, he wanted to ask about the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines there and what exactly the refined ores were used for.


    However, he was afraid that he would reveal a flaw, so he didn¡¯t ask. Instead, he fell silent and quietly listened to Yuan Hu¡¯s explanation.


    Yuan Hu had the intention to curry favor with him, so the atmosphere between the two was not too awkward.


    ¡®It seems that he is the kind that is easier to talk to¡­¡¯


    Yuan Hu gradually relaxed during this process.


    After the initial probing, Zhou Feng was clearly not one of those madmen in his eyes.


    Most people with the Sacred Blood bloodline were lost cases. This was already common knowledge at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    But if he met someone with a good temper, then the situation would be completely different. After all, at the Bottom of the Abyss, only the Sacred Blood bloodline could resist those evil things.


    Only these people could access the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines.


    Soon, a city different from the ones on the surface appeared.


    High city walls, circle after circle of formations, and a huge dao artifact above the city greeted Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    In this city, there was a huge spirit pearl that was imitating the sun, constantly emitting a gentle light.


    At that moment, all the light in the vicinity was dispersed.


    The annoying Yin Qi in the surroundings was also expelled, and Zhou Feng even felt strands of pure Spiritual Qi. If he ignored the surroundings, the environment here was not very different from the surface.


    Obviously, this was another system.


    ¡®These people¡­¡¯


    What made Zhou Feng even more curious was that there was not a single person who looked normal coming in and out of this city.


    All of them had strange shapes, and their bodies had been somewhat modified. Some people even had grotesque bodies.


    Normal people like Zhou Feng were very rare.


    ¡®Is it because of the environment? Or is it to gain strength?¡¯


    At that moment, he thought of many possibilities.


    The reason for this was most likely because they had no choice.


    After all, most humans valued their looks. If it weren¡¯t because they had no choice, no one would be willing to turn themselves into a monster.


    When Zhou Feng walked to the city gate, he instantly sensed someone was watching him.


    ¡®Exposed?¡¯


    He was a little nervous.


    If he couldn¡¯t hide it, he could only kill or escape depending on the situation.


    To be honest, he didn¡¯t want to be exposed too early because there were still a lot of things he didn¡¯t understand.


    Nothing happened.


    Yuan Hu respectfully took out some lamp oil.


    In an instant, a layer of the lamp oil was shaved off.


    This seemed to be paying the city entrance tax?


    ¡®I don¡¯t have this kind of thing!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change, but his reaction was extremely quick.


    He got down from the carriage and walked straight into the city, looking extremely carefree, as if he was not worried about the city entrance tax at all.


    Such a posture caused Yuan Hu¡¯s eyes to be filled with envy.


    ¡®As expected of a Sacred Blood seed! There¡¯s no need to pay the lamp oil tax to enter the city!¡¯


    However, what Yuan Hu didn¡¯t know was that Zhou Feng was already prepared to erupt with power at any moment.


    In that instant, the AI used Hexadirectional Calculation to make predictions frantically.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s best choice was to advance. Any other actions resulted in a bad omen.


    That was why he made such a choice just now.


    Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s predictions were trustworthy most of the time!


    ¡®I made the right bet!¡¯


    A glimmer of light flashed in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    Without any hindrance or anyone appearing, he smoothly entered the city.


    It should be mentioned that the lamp oil Yuan Hu had just paid as tax was a special substance extracted from all sorts of strange and demonic creatures.


    And this special substance was the fuel for the big ball above the city.


    Anyone who entered any city at the Bottom of the Abyss had to hand over the lamp oil.


    The Sacred Blood race was an exception, however. The Sacred Blood race could freely enter and exit any city.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know these details. He only thought that Daoist Ziyuan¡¯s identity seemed to be somewhat extraordinary.


    ¡®There are more city walls?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized a few city walls were in front of him.


    Was this city actually constructed from countless concentric city walls?


    These city walls were not only engraved with various formations but also forged with some special minerals.


    ¡®It¡¯s simply a turtle shell! What exactly is it guarding against?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was in a dilemma because he did not know what to do next. He could clearly feel that many gazes were on him.


    ¡°What a pure aura! Is this the descent of the Sacred Son?¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng did not know what to do, a gentle voice sounded, and then he felt a burning gaze.


    ¡°The City Lordess? The City Lordess actually appeared!?¡±


    ¡°This person is¡­¡±


    ¡°Did the City Lordess just say that this person is the Sacred Son?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s great! There¡¯s finally hope¡­¡±


    For a moment, the surroundings became noisy.


    Zhou Feng also turned his attention to the one who had spoken. He saw a woman standing gracefully in front of him. The gentle light on her head made her look like a goddess.


    Her black hair was beautiful, and her eyes were bright, especially when compared to the group of monsters around her.


    The woman in front of him could be described as beautiful.


    Moreover, the woman¡¯s clothes were also very prominent and sexy.


    Under the dim light, her crystal-like body looked transparent, and the gauze dress on her body was very similar to her skin color.


    At a glance, no flaws could be seen.


    Only the round curves made the gauze dress slightly different from her body.


    ¡®Dao Enlightenment realm? No? Ascendance realm? No!¡¯


    Zhou Feng became very vigilant against this beauty because he couldn¡¯t see through her cultivation base.


    Her aura was erratic. It was a bit like the Dao Enlightenment realm but also a bit different.


    Also, he seemed to be misunderstood again.


    ¡®Sacred Blood race? Sacred Son? When did I become a Sacred Son?¡¯


    An Lian stared at Zhou Feng. That pure aura made her somewhat addicted.


    She didn¡¯t know how long it had been, but she had finally met a person who suited her aesthetic standards.


    Since she was young, she didn¡¯t know how long she had been guarding this place.


    ¡®I must seize this opportunity!¡¯


    An Lian suddenly became firm.

 Chapter 565 - The Pursuit of Eternal Life

    An Lian suddenly became determined.


    Ash City could not hold on for long. If there was no turning point, this place would be completely eroded by the demon tide.


    And obviously, Zhou Feng was the source of this turning point.


    That pure aura was something An Lian had never felt before.


    Perhaps others would be stupefied, but An Lian was certain that Zhou Feng¡¯s Sacred Blood bloodline had already reached the level of the Sacred Son.


    It was known that the Sacred Blood race was the ruler of the abyss.


    The minimum requirement for a City Lord was to have the Sacred Blood bloodline.


    At the same time, there were different levels of the Sacred Blood bloodline. Generally speaking, the purer the Sacred Blood bloodline, the stronger one would be.


    In An Lian¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng¡¯s Sacred Blood bloodline was as pure as the Sacred Son¡¯s.


    Such a person would definitely be able to lead Ash City through the crisis.


    Other than that, there was another crucial point, and that was that Zhou Feng was handsome enough.


    Such a reason might make people want to laugh.


    But in reality, Zhou Feng had somewhat underestimated his charm.


    First, he had a few passive skills that directly increased his charm.


    Then, his physical body had undergone remodeling, and his Longevity bloodline had also undergone a transformation.


    Putting everything else aside, just the metamorphosis of the Longevity bloodline alone made Zhou Feng¡¯s entire person give off a strange charm.


    No matter who it was, it was very easy for them to develop a favorable impression of Zhou Feng.


    The reason was the existence of the longevity substances. No race could resist the longevity substances¡¯ temptation.


    Because of the above reasons, An Lian had taken a liking to Zhou Feng at first glance.


    At that moment, An Lian even wanted to pounce on him¡­


    ¡®Sacred Blood bloodline? She means the Longevity bloodline?¡¯


    Zhou Feng remained silent in front of An Lian. He didn¡¯t know what to say.


    But at this moment, he already had some ideas.


    These people seemed to have misunderstood something. The Sacred Blood bloodline and the Longevity bloodline might really have some connection.


    After all, it was because of the Longevity bloodline¡¯s existence he was able to enter this place so easily.


    ¡°Follow me!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng did not show any signs of reaction, An Lian chose to be straightforward.


    Some words could not be said directly under everyone¡¯s watchful eyes.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng clenched his fists tightly and almost attacked.


    ¡®Calm down!¡¯


    Fortunately, his instincts told him that he absolutely should not attack.


    If he attacked now, he would be in great danger.


    On the contrary, he would be very safe if he did not move recklessly.


    ¡®Moreover, there are too many people here. If we are alone, it will be much more convenient to attack¡­¡¯


    After considering all the above, Zhou Feng still chose to wait and see.


    Soon, An Lian brought Zhou Feng to the center of Ash City.


    ¡°What are you doing?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned because he felt that his surroundings seemed to be sealed.


    The invisible pressure made him feel slightly uneasy.


    An Lian¡¯s hair was like a waterfall, her skin was like snow, and her eyes were burning.


    ¡°What am I doing? You¡­¡±


    An Lian¡¯s face suddenly revealed a trace of surprise.


    Zhou Feng immediately knew that he seemed to have revealed a flaw.


    ¡°You¡¯re from the surface!? How is that possible! Your aura¡­¡±


    Seeing An Lian¡¯s reaction, he knew that he could no longer hide it.


    An Lian was astonished at this moment because Zhou Feng was actually someone from the surface.


    ¡®Only a Sacred Son should exude that kind of pure aura. Could something have happened on the surface? Otherwise, he should not have such a pure aura.¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not know where the flaw was.


    In fact, he was not familiar with the Bottom of the Abyss.


    The Sacred Blood bloodline was very rare in the Bottom of the Abyss nowadays.


    In order to continue the Sacred Blood bloodline, people with the Sacred Blood bloodline would not choose those who had transformed themselves into monsters as their spouses.


    As a result, there would be very few people that An Lian could choose.


    Under normal circumstances, two people who possessed the Sacred Blood bloodline would skip the steps of cultivating feelings and such and go for the fourth base as long as they met each other.


    Simply put, An Lian had taken a liking to Zhou Feng and had just probed him.


    Zhou Feng had not resisted just now, which was equivalent to acquiescence.


    According to the normal procedure, the two people should have gone for the fourth base.


    But Zhou Feng said, ¡°What are you going to do?¡±


    This directly made An Lian realize something was wrong because this kind of unspoken rule was known to all the possessors of the Sacred Blood bloodline.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Seeing that he could not hide it anymore, Zhou Feng directly attacked.


    He seemed to throw a punch casually. But in reality, this punch gathered all the power in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    It was still the same kind of destructive force to the body, coupled with various passive buffs.


    This punch could be said to be a punch that could shatter heaven and earth.


    An Lian¡¯s expression instantly changed as she sensed she was in danger.


    Her pure white palm slightly blocked that violent force. It was like a clay ox entering the sea; all of it was swallowed up.


    However, countless cracks appeared on An Lian¡¯s jade-like arm in the next second.


    The bright red flesh and bones were clearly seen.


    ¡°Wait! I mean no harm!¡±


    An Lian immediately shouted after taking the attack head-on.


    In order to prove her sincerity, she even took a few steps back.


    At that moment, An Lian¡¯s hair was messy, and her jade-like body was still emitting a faint glow, giving her a unique look.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change.


    ¡®No ill intent?¡¯


    Sensing An Lian¡¯s sincerity, he did not continue to attack.


    ¡°To be honest, I don¡¯t care where you come from!¡±


    After An Lian found out that Zhou Feng came from the surface, she became even more enthusiastic.


    This meant that Zhou Feng was different from those lunatics.


    Besides the various reasons mentioned earlier, why did An Lian take a liking to Zhou Feng?


    In fact, there was another reason, which was that she had no other choice.


    After being in Ash City for so many years, An Lian had encountered many people with the Sacred Blood bloodline.


    She had even met Sacred Sons, but none of them were good in her eyes.


    Under the erosion of the Sacred Blood, those people had already become crazy, and their aura carried a hint of mania.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was pure.


    In An Lian¡¯s eyes, those people were all crazy. The sudden appearance of a normal person like Zhou Feng naturally ticked many of her boxes.


    An Lian suddenly spoke. ¡°I wonder if you have the patience to listen to a story?¡±


    ¡®Story?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had the AI perform Hexadirectional Calculation to predict the good and bad, and the divination indicated it was good.


    ¡°Speak.¡±


    He gestured for An Lian to continue.


    An Lian¡¯s face suddenly revealed a trace of sadness. ¡°This story is very simple. It¡¯s a group of people madly chasing after eternal life, and then¡­¡±


    That¡¯s right! The ones chasing after eternal life were actually the Sacred Blood race.


    It was unknown when it started, but after the Sacred Blood race¡¯s formation, everyone with the Sacred Blood bloodline began to become obsessed.


    The vast majority of people were pursuing immortality, and only a small number of people remained calm.


    An Lian belonged to that small group.

 Chapter 566 - Shyness? Then be Familiar with It!

    Zhou Feng extracted a lot of information from An Lian¡¯s.


    First of all, the environment at the Bottom of the Abyss was not as safe as he had imagined.


    Every once in a while, the so-called demon tide would appear.


    During this time, countless demons and monsters seemed to have come to an agreement and would gather together to besiege the city.


    Therefore, they needed to hide in the city to hide.


    The people at the Bottom of the Abyss became crazy because of such a terrible environment.


    After the discovery of the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines, more people entered a crazy state.


    Under normal circumstances, the Sacred Blood Amethysts were difficult to use, and only people with the Sacred Blood bloodline could refine it.


    After refining the Sacred Blood Amethyst, it would turn the crimson ore, which would turned into the Destiny Blood with a special method.


    This Destiny Blood had abundant vitality and even had a special function¡ªthat was to fuse the demon parts with the human body.


    Ordinary human bodies could not survive in the abyss, so a body replacement frenzy took place with this so-called Destiny Blood¡¯s appearance.


    Except for those who had the Sacred Blood bloodline, almost everyone chose to fuse with the parts of the demons to increase their survival ability.


    This was the reason Zhou Feng did not see many normal people on his way here.


    ¡°However, this method is only to prolong their lives.¡±


    When An Lian said this, her eyes were full of despair.


    That¡¯s right! Even with such a crazy method, it was still impossible to survive in this place.


    There were 90% fewer people in Ash City than ten years ago.


    As for escaping to the surface, that was even more impossible.


    For some unknown reason, the passage leading to the surface was sealed, especially a while ago. After a Spiritual Vein was extracted, the environment at the Bottom of the Abyss worsened.


    ¡°You came from the surface, so you should know how to leave this place, right?¡±


    When An Lian thought that Zhou Feng had come from the surface, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared on her face.


    Originally, she only treated Zhou Feng as a backer.


    After all, he was definitely not weak since he had such a pure aura. At the same time, he still maintained his rationality.


    This was definitely a person she could entrust her life to.


    In this wretched place at the Bottom of the Abyss, Zhou Feng was already the best man An Lian had ever seen in her life.


    Because of this, An Lian chose to throw herself at him.


    ¡®How did I get here?¡¯


    After Zhou Feng understood this information, he was completely muddled.


    It seemed that he had only used a few teleportation talismans? Although there were a little too many of them, how did he teleport here?


    If An Lian wasn¡¯t lying, how would he leave this place?


    Unknowingly, Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was clouded by a shadow.


    ¡°I know that just saying that isn¡¯t enough sincerity!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t answer her, An Lian gnashed her teeth and exposed the undulating curves.


    ¡°Wait¡ª¡±


    Zhou Feng reacted at this time. He originally wanted to say something, but An Lian embraced him before he could say anything.


    Zhou Feng was not a saint.


    ¡®If I remember correctly, I seem to have the passive Perfect Fusion!¡¯


    At the last second, he thought of a passive skill.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng had already woken up.


    ¡°Is this the effect of the passive Perfect Fusion?¡±


    After dual cultivating, his Longevity bloodline seemed to be ready to transform again.


    2


    His physical body had improved, and the turbulent Blood Qi flowed more smoothly.


    Besides this, there were many other benefits.


    First, the dry heat in his physical body was released.


    Zhou Feng had been plundering vitality and longevity all this time. Even though he had the Fate Wheel to neutralize it, his body was always in a vigorous state. No matter how he cultivated, he could not get rid of it.


    1


    Now, the dry heat had dissipated.


    Then, his state of mind became calm.


    Originally, his state of mind had been maintained very well, but he had been showing signs of impatience after the Human Slayers¡¯ benefits.


    Especially in this environment at the Bottom of the Abyss, Zhou Feng felt as if he was going crazy at any moment.


    The environment seemed to be able to continuously evoke the dark side in one¡¯s heart and release one¡¯s own tyrannical emotions.


    Now, he could be considered to be completely comfortable.


    ¡®Eh? The progress bar has increased so much?¡¯


    What surprised Zhou Feng the most was that the progress bar had increased by more than half.


    In other words, he would be able to obtain a passive skill again soon.


    This time, he could be considered to have fully experienced the benefits of dual cultivation.


    Compared to the hard work one put into cultivating, such an improvement was straightforward and crude. At the same time, the process was no longer arduous.


    No wonder dual cultivation was so popular.


    Zhou Feng also had to thank Xue Ji for the dual cultivation technique she had provided him.


    This dual cultivation technique from the Azure Fox Clan worked perfectly with the passive Perfect Fusion.


    It was completely one plus one equaled greater than two.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    As Zhou Feng experienced all sorts of benefits, An Lian also slowly woke up.


    ¡°I¡¯m¡­¡±


    After waking up, An Lian immediately felt all sorts of aches and soreness.


    Zhou Feng had tormented her quite ruthlessly. After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi was as exuberant as the vast ocean.


    ¡°I, I, I¡­¡±


    An Lian felt that her original internal injuries had all healed.


    At the same time, the Sacred Blood bloodline in her body had been purified to a terrifying degree.


    Her realm had also advanced from the 1st Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm straight to the 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation Realm, ready to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm at any time.


    One had to know that An Lian had only recently broken through to the Dragon Transformation realm, yet she reached the 9th Cycle of the Dragon Transformation realm in less than a day.


    An Lian, who was even weaker, had gained more benefits during the process of dual cultivation.


    ¡°You¡¯re awake?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm voice sounded.


    An Lian¡¯s cheeks suddenly blushed.


    Obviously, she also realized that her previous actions were too bold.


    Now, she didn¡¯t know how to face Zhou Feng, but An Lian didn¡¯t regret it.


    Anyway, she had had enough of this kind of life. If Zhou Feng hadn¡¯t appeared, she might have been stranded in Ash City, devoured by the demon wave bit by bit, and died here.


    The lamp oil collected during this period of time wasn¡¯t enough to support the city during the next demon wave.


    And the next demon wave would appear seven days later.


    ¡°Shy?¡±


    Zhou Feng was used to facial paralysis, so he still looked calm.


    But his hands didn¡¯t stop.


    She was shy because they were just not familiar enough. As long as they became familiar enough, she wouldn¡¯t feel shy.


    Thus, he chose the most direct method.


    ¡°Wait! Wait!¡±


    An Lian¡¯s white wrist was grabbed by Zhou Feng, and a trace of fear appeared on her face.


    Although she refused verbally, An Lian did not really struggle.


    She just turned her head to the side and let Zhou Feng perform.


    At the Azure Fox Clan¡­


    Xue Ji frowned as a bad feeling rose in her heart.


    ¡°What happened? Why am I feeling uneasy!?¡±


    1

 Chapter 567 - Destiny Blood

    After a period of passionate exchanges, An Lian and Zhou Feng finally became familiar with each other.


    Zhou Feng was also aware of the predicament An Lian was currently in.


    After venting her emotions, An Lian looked like she was lying flat on the ground, and her entire person became peaceful.


    ¡°In other words, the demon tide will descend in seven days?¡±


    After understanding the specific situation, he first confirmed the time when the demon tide would descend.


    According to An Lian, the Yin Qi hidden in the earth¡¯s core would gush out when the demon tide arrived.


    At that time, the entire abyss would fall into a state of chaos.


    No one dared to go out when the demon tide arrived.


    Because if they went out now, not only would they have to bear the impact of the Yin Qi, but they would also have to face endless bizarre and demonic creatures.


    Some of the corpses would even come back to life at this time.


    Why was An Lian becoming more and more desperate?


    It was because the duration of the demonic tide was getting longer, and the intervals between the tides were getting shorter.


    It was said that this had something to do with the extraction of too many Spiritual Veins.


    The many Spiritual Veins under the ground had the effect of suppressing them.


    But as the Spiritual Veins were removed and gathered in the easternmost region, the accumulated resentment could no longer be suppressed.


    Zhou Feng thought of the surface at this time.


    When he got to the Eastern Land, he found that it was no different than a wasteland.


    There weren¡¯t many people, and the harsh environment was far worse than the Southern Border.


    ¡®So, it¡¯s because the Spiritual Veins had been extracted? What exactly are the people of the Daemon League planning?¡¯


    They actually had such great boldness to extract so many Spiritual Veins.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! After the demon tide arrives, it will normally last for a month! But the lamp oil in the city can¡¯t last that long!¡±


    An Lian was very calm at this time. It seemed that she had accepted her fate.


    Zhou Feng did not say anything but continued to ask about other things.


    ¡°Do you mind showing me your cultivation technique?¡±


    ¡°No problem!¡±


    An Lian agreed readily and shared everything in Ash City with Zhou Feng.


    The reason she did so was firstly to acknowledge Zhou Feng.


    Since she had already done what she needed to do, what was a mere cultivation technique?


    Secondly, she hoped that Zhou Feng would be able to lead her through the demon tide.


    If Zhou Feng had not appeared, An Lian would have died from the demon tide.


    When the lamp oil was about to be used up, the monsters in the city might directly riot.


    The lamp above their heads used the City Lord¡¯s residence as the center, spreading light outwards.


    When the lamp oil was insufficient, they would naturally prioritize protecting the City Lord¡¯s residence.


    At that time, everyone would squeeze into the center under the threat of death.


    An Lian thought that she might not die from the demon tide, but instead, she would die at the hands of the monsters in the city.


    Of course, the residents of Ash City did not know that there was not enough oil.


    Therefore, it was not chaotic yet.


    It was ridiculous to say that An Lian had the Sacred Blood bloodline. In the face of the demon tide, she did not have the ability to resist at all.


    For a moment, An Lian fell into a state of self-pity.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think too much about it. As An Lian shared everything about Ash City with him, he had the AI record everything.


    The first thing he did was to have the AI record the many cultivation techniques the various City Lords had collected.


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    Zhou Feng came into contact with some cultivation techniques that were completely different from the ones on the surface.


    At the Bottom of the Abyss, no one cultivated divine abilities.


    That was because the environment was not suitable. Not only was the Spiritual Qi here scarce, but Yin Qi and Demonic filled the surroundings. It might not even be safe in the city.


    There was simply no time or environment for people to comprehend divine abilities.


    Therefore, the people here were crazily strengthening their physical bodies. They relied on their powerful physical bodies and unparalleled vitality to survive the demon tides one after another.


    Coincidentally, the existence of the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines and the Destiny Blood made this train of thought seem even more correct as it could strengthen the body and cause the vitality in the body to boil.


    Still, this was a double-edged sword.


    Having too much vitality was actually not a good thing.


    Someone once used the Destiny Blood and then crazily used self-torture body tempering techniques.


    The goal was to continuously wear down the excess vitality and, at the same time, allow the body to reach a terrifying realm.


    Unfortunately, this experiment ended up in failure. That person¡¯s body began to grow, and the 2-meter-tall fellow grew to three meters in height in one night.


    The skeleton and flesh were growing, but other parts of the body, such as the brain, couldn¡¯t grow so fast.


    This led to a terrifying consequence.


    The body that grew again became more solid, but the person went crazy.


    In the end, the person grew a third hand, and there was even a case of atavism and insomnia.


    In any case, the person¡¯s body was torn apart and died.


    Such a terrifying outcome scared countless people.


    Therefore, when using the Destiny Blood, one would choose to transplant some demon parts into the body to wear down the exuberant vitality.


    Also, transplanting the demon parts would give one some strange abilities.


    After ingesting this information, Zhou Feng finally understood what was going on.


    ¡°Destiny Blood¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was holding a small jade bottle.


    There were a few drops of bright red blood in the bottle.


    Although the blood was separated by the jade bottle, it still gave people a delicate feeling.


    That enormous vitality continuously stimulated Zhou Feng¡¯s nerves. His Longevity bloodline was boiling, and all the cells in his body seemed to be shouting.


    This situation was exactly the same as when he encountered the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mine.


    He took out a trace of the Destiny Blood from the Jade Bottle and placed it on his palm. Then, he prepared to quietly wait for the change.


    The trace of the Destiny Blood touched Zhou Feng¡¯s skin, and it was like dry wood meeting a raging fire.


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was like boiling water, and he couldn¡¯t suppress it even if he wanted to.


    The side effects of the Destiny Blood seemed to appear.


    He felt that his hair had grown a little longer.


    But the Fate Wheel soon restricted the enormous intake of vitality.


    Then, it was turned into the nourishment for the transformation of the Longevity bloodline.


    The vitality and longevity substances required for the transformation of the Longevity bloodline was not something a mere trace of the Destiny Blood could satisfy.


    ¡®This is practically tailor-made for me!¡¯


    Zhou Feng waited for a while and realized that this Destiny Blood did not cause any side effects to him. Instead, it was very beneficial to him.


    As long as there was enough Destiny Blood, Zhou Feng¡¯s Longevity bloodline would be able to complete its transformation.


    His Fate Wheel would also be able to form a second ring.


    Was there really such a coincidence?


    At that moment, Zhou Feng began to wonder why everything was so coincidental.


    Just as the teleportation talismans had teleported to the Bottom of the Abyss, this place had something like the Destiny Blood.


    This could already be considered a fortuitous encounter!

 Chapter 568 - Purging the Entire City

    Zhou Feng was still like a sponge, absorbing all kinds of information.


    What surprised him the most was that An Lian actually had a method of immortality.


    Although this method of immortality was very simple, its premise was similar to Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    Other than that, what he valued the most was the information about the transformation and fusion of bodies in Ash City.


    The people here actually understood the wonders of big data. All the people who exchanged for Destiny Blood and modified themselves had to hand in the specific information.


    There was even a treasure that stored this information, a ball of light that encased a crystal clear brain. According to An Lian, this ball of light was called Heaven¡¯s Legacy.


    Zhou Feng was naturally very interested in this.


    These things seemed to indicate that Ash City was once very prosperous.


    In a sense, this so-called Heaven¡¯s Legacy was comparable to an AI.


    ¡°These things were passed down from the previous City Lord.¡±


    An Lian did not seem to understand it very well.


    When Zhou Feng asked about the origins of these things, An Lian answered truthfully.


    There were many things in the City Lord¡¯s residence that were passed down from generation to generation.


    However, most of them were consumed by dust.


    An Lian had no idea how these things were used, or it could be said that she could not use them.


    Just by searching for information, Heaven¡¯s Legacy required a tremendous amount of soul power.


    Not to mention using Heaven¡¯s Legacy to record and deduce, no one in Ash City had the ability to activate this treasure.


    Therefore, the recording of new information had stopped a long time ago.


    Perhaps it was also because of this that An Lian¡¯s control over Ash City had decreased significantly.


    As the City Lordess and someone with the Sacred Blood bloodline, the life, and death of everyone in Ash City should be in An Lian¡¯s hands. There would definitely not be any trouble.


    However, a few major events seemed to have happened in Ash City yesterday, and An Lian had to deal with them for a long time.


    The current An Lian was most familiar with the safety lamp above her head.


    The fact that so many treasures had eaten dust for such a long time made Zhou Feng feel extremely regretful.


    However, this was also good. Now, all these treasures and techniques had benefited him.


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t want to admit it, he could be considered living off a woman this time.


    In order to repay An Lian, he could only carry out a few more rounds of dual cultivation to assist An Lian in increasing her cultivation.


    ¡°AI!¡±


    Zhou Feng stood in front of Heaven¡¯s Legacy and called out his AI.


    At the same time, a huge amount of soul power surged out and poured into Heaven¡¯s Legacy.


    Instantly, the crystal clear brain began to emit a faint light.


    The dust on it was swept away.


    ¡°There¡¯s an authentication system?¡±


    At this moment, he could clearly feel that his body had been probed.


    After detecting Zhou Feng¡¯s pure aura, Heaven¡¯s Legacy was completely opened to him.


    When it was reactivated, the entire Ash City seemed to have been swept by an invisible force.


    ¡­


    ¡°That force¡­ Impossible! That little girl can¡¯t activate Heaven¡¯s Legacy!¡±


    ¡°Heaven¡¯s Legacy? Isn¡¯t that thing broken?¡±


    ¡°That power just now¡­ was it an illusion?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    In a dark room, a few deep voices suddenly sounded.


    Two scarlet candles were lit on both sides of the room.


    The pale flames made this space seem particularly cold, and the wax oil that kept dripping down was like fresh blood, giving people a strange feeling.


    ¡°No matter what, we don¡¯t have much time left!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! The demon tide is coming in a few days! We have to finish off that girl in these few days!¡±


    ¡°The oil in the safety lamp won¡¯t last long, we have to strike first!¡±


    Under the pale flames, a huge meatball sat in the middle.


    This meatball had a few arms, and its two rows of eyes were like a pair of buttons. They lined up on its body, making it look terrifying.


    Lu Ba couldn¡¯t take it anymore.


    The drastic change in his body made it necessary for him to obtain a large amount of Destiny Blood to suppress the demon heart.


    Originally, he was like An Lian, possessing the Sacred Blood bloodline and also controlling a city.


    However, due to an accident, his body was damaged and contaminated by the demon blood.


    Under his strong desire to survive, Lu Ba transplanted a demon heart.


    It was the heart of a demon. From that moment on, Lu Ba¡¯s body and soul were constantly contaminated.


    He had also changed from a noble Sacred Blood descendant to the lowest level of monsters.


    Moreover, in order to survive, Lu Ba needed a large amount of Destiny Blood to suppress the demon heart.


    Thus, after a long journey, Lu Ba arrived at Ash City.


    At the same time, he also discovered the hidden dangers of Ash City.


    Others might not have noticed, but Lu Ba had discovered that the lamp oil was almost exhausted.


    In such a state, he would not be able to resist the next demon tide.


    Then, a plan slowly appeared in Lu Ba¡¯s mind. He would capture An Lian, the City Lordess, enslave her, and keep extracting Destiny Blood for himself.


    In order to be safe, Lu Ba recruited a few of the top fighters of Ash City. He even thoroughly investigated An Lian¡¯s background.


    If nothing unexpected happened, he would have made his move a few days ago.


    But at that critical moment, a gigolo actually appeared.


    And this gigolo was a Sacred Blood descendant, and his aura was extremely pure.


    Under such circumstances, Lu Ba hesitated for a moment. He was very clear about what he had done.


    Once he was exposed, only death awaited him.


    Previously, he had decided to make his move because An Lian did not have any good friends.


    The location of Ash City was also remote enough. As long as he was decisive enough, there should be no problem.


    ¡°There¡¯s no time! I have to make a move. I can¡¯t wait any longer!¡±


    A hint of madness flashed in Lu Ba¡¯s eyes.


    His spherical body was wriggling crazily, and an arm was slowly growing.


    His body had undergone an unpredictable change with the support of the demon heart and Destiny Blood.


    Although Lu Ba looked very strange and his body was as fat as a ball, his strength did not decrease. Instead, it became more and more terrifying.


    This was because Lu Ba and the demon heart had already started to fuse, and he had also awakened some of the abilities of that demon.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s do it!¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s let the cannon fodder test it out first. Then we¡¯ll settle it with one strike!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The people Lu Ba had roped in looked thrilled. Their souls had long been distorted, and the tyrannical emotions that existed all the time made them extreme.


    ¡­


    ¡°Danger? This is¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng used a huge amount of soul power to activate Heaven¡¯s Legacy.


    Heaven¡¯s Legacy immediately sent out a warning, and countless red dots appeared on a map.


    According to Heaven¡¯s Legacy¡¯s judgment, all the people in Ash City were targets that needed to be eliminated!?

 Chapter 569 - Flesh and Blood Furnace

    Heaven¡¯s Legacy!


    This treasure had not been used for nearly 100 years because An Lian did not have enough energy and soul power to activate it.


    Yet, Zhou Feng forcefully activated Heaven¡¯s Legacy now.


    A huge stream of data directly rushed into his mind.


    There was information about the city¡¯s formations, core formation, and the targets that needed to be eliminated.


    If Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was not strong enough, he might have been turned into an idiot by the data.


    This treasure was like the AI terminal, controlling everything in Ash City.


    Zhou Feng ignored most of the information and gave 90% of the information to the AI to process.


    He only cared about the most important information, which was that everyone in the city was a target that needed to be eliminated.


    This was because, under the judgment of Heaven¡¯s Legacy, the degree of the mutation of everyone in the city was too high.


    This was a very dangerous situation, and the threat had to be eliminated.


    There were even a few spots that were red to black on the virtual map.


    Those spots were the biggest threat.


    ¡°Y-You reactivated Heaven¡¯s Legacy?¡±


    At that moment, An Lian walked to his side with light steps, her face a little surprised.


    An Lian had once tried to reactivate Heaven¡¯s Legacy but gave up in the end.


    The impact on her soul had made her lie down for half a month.


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    Zhou Feng turned his head around. Heaven¡¯s Legacy was like his second brain, floating to the side, slightly emitting light.


    Zhou Feng finally understood.


    The Bottom of the Abyss had once been a glorious place. The people of the past had even developed all kinds of special techniques and treasures in this special environment.


    Unfortunately, the Bottom of the Abyss had already declined. If no external force interfered, it would only be a matter of time before it disappeared into the long river of history.


    An Lian could not help but ask, ¡°What do you want to do?¡±


    Probably because of the environment, An Lian did not have much desire.


    Other than the most basic desire for survival and courtship, her only hobby was raising flowers.


    There were a few blood flowers in the center of the city.


    The blood flower was a special type of flower that grew at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    Its appearance was delicate and dripping. It emitted a faint blood light all year round. Its rhizome had very obvious meridians and blood vessels.


    It was a type of flower that needed to be watered with flesh and blood.


    However, it had no effect and even contained poison. It could be said that other than being beautiful, it was useless.


    Still, An Lian liked it. She would even collect flesh and blood every once in a while to water the flowers of blood.


    ¡°Slaughter everyone in the city!¡±


    Zhou Feng let the AI control Heaven¡¯s Legacy and projected the map of Ash City while speaking in a very calm tone.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    An Lian looked at the red dots all over the map, and a hint of surprise appeared on her face.


    However, she was only a little surprised. She did not even have the intention to stop Zhou Feng.


    An Lian did not even see the monsters in Ash City as her own kind.


    Only those who had Sacred Blood and their minds were not contaminated could be considered her own kind.


    An Lian was only worried about whether it was dangerous or not.


    That was an entire city. Those lunatics who used Destiny Blood to crazily transform themselves were fearsome once they gathered together.


    An Lian¡¯s face revealed a trace of worry.


    ¡°There won¡¯t be any danger, right?¡±


    ¡°No! These people aren¡¯t even enough for me to use my full strength!¡±


    Zhou Feng was still as calm as ever.


    ¡°I see¡­ Then I¡¯ll go water the flowers.¡±


    An Lian didn¡¯t ask any more questions and quickly went to take care of her flowers.


    This was the way Zhou Feng and An Lian interacted.


    The two didn¡¯t interfere too much with each other.


    An Lian¡¯s personality and low desire didn¡¯t limit Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.


    As long as she could water the flowers every day and Zhou Feng handed in public rations every day, everything would be fine.


    Speaking of which, An Lian had an additional desire recently.


    She wanted to have a baby, but unfortunately, she hadn¡¯t succeeded.


    For Zhou Feng, this way of getting along was very comfortable.


    He didn¡¯t need to spend a lot of time dealing with other things; he just needed to put in some effort.


    Zhou Feng was still able to put most of his energy into cultivation.


    With the support of the entire Ash City¡¯s legacy, he was now even more confident in creating his own cultivation technique.


    Although he did not want to say it, he had really eaten a lot of soft rice.


    The information recorded in Heaven¡¯s Legacy was too useful to Zhou Feng.


    It contained a large amount of data to modify the physical body and prolong life.


    It was hard to imagine how many experiments the successive City Lords of Ash City had done to accumulate so much information.


    ¡°An entire city! This should be barely enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng began to perfect a technique in his mind.


    Flesh-Blood Furnace!


    This was the core inheritance of Ash City, and it was also the dowry An Lian had given him.


    This was a very special technique.


    It was specially used to temper the bloodline, return the body to nature, and wash away the impurities.


    The principle was to let people enter a furnace and then, like forging a treasure, slowly refine the body to the extreme.


    Although this technique sounded simple, it was still very difficult to implement because it required a large amount of flesh and blood as raw materials.


    This furnace was truly condensed from flesh and blood.


    In addition to a large amount of flesh and blood, it also required an extremely strong soul.


    This was because when using the furnace to refine one¡¯s own body, they would suffer the corrosion of endless resentment.


    ¡°It¡¯s best to use it during the demon tide¡­ This is crazy!¡±


    A trace of madness flashed across Zhou Feng¡¯s calm face unnaturally.


    What was even crazier was that according to the experience of the past City Lords of Ash City, the best time to use the furnace was actually when the demon tide was coming.


    When the demon tide was coming, countless vengeful souls and demons would surge up, and the furnace was an object condensed from flesh, blood, and Qi.


    One could use those vengeful souls to temper their bodies, turning all the demons and souls into nourishment.


    In this way, both the physical body and soul could be tempered.


    A normal person would not use such an extreme and crazy technique.


    After all, it was too dangerous. The slightest bit of carelessness would result in death on the spot.


    Even Zhou Feng thought so.


    Therefore, he used the AI¡¯s huge computational power to improve it and integrate it into Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    ¡°The Fate Wheel can stabilize all the vitality and longevity substances! It can even stabilize the Blood Qi! So after the improvement¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was beating slightly faster.


    He wanted to wash away the impurities and truly create a bloodline and inheritance that belonged to him.


    At the same time, he also wanted to use this opportunity to change all the techniques that he had learned to his own.


    The Starseizer Steps, the Great Void Primordial Art, and the other techniques had to become his.


    ¡°Such an opportunity! I have to seize it!¡±

 Chapter 570 - Perfect Opportunity

    Suddenly, the safety lamp on the top of Ash City slowly went out.


    Roars and shouts of murder spread throughout the entire city.


    All of this happened very suddenly. A portion of the people did not even realize what was happening.


    After that, some monsters started to attack the City Lord¡¯s residence.


    ¡°The lamp oil has been stolen! The City Lord wants to escape!¡±


    ¡°Other than the problem with the formation, there¡¯s not even enough lamp oil.¡±


    ¡°The person from before is here to take the City Lordess away!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    In an instant, all kinds of hearsay started to spread.


    There were already many problems in Ash City.


    Although An Lian had covered up the problem with the lamp oil, most of the formations outside Ash City had already stopped working.


    There was simply no time to repair them.


    Originally, many people felt much more at ease with Zhou Feng¡¯s arrival.


    Zhou Feng was the helper that An Lian had invited over in their eyes.


    But after a few days, as the demon tide was about to descend, the formations outside showed no signs of being repaired.


    As a result, the atmosphere in the city began to change, and uneasiness began to spread.


    In addition, Lu Ba was causing trouble in the dark.


    Thus, a riot broke out just like that.


    ¡°Perfect timing!¡±


    Zhou Feng noticed the commotion, but there wasn¡¯t the slightest hint of panic on his face. Instead, he felt that it was perfect timing as they directly delivered themselves to his door. He didn¡¯t have to take the initiative to attack.


    An Lian originally wanted to come out and take a look, but Zhou Feng advised her to go back.


    ¡°Charge in! So what if it¡¯s the Sacred Blood bloodline? Tomorrow is the time for the demon tide to descend!¡±


    ¡°Since we¡¯re all going to die anyway, we might as well enjoy ourselves before we die.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Under the guidance of a few filthy words, many people¡¯s eyes instantly turned red.


    Indeed! These people already had plenty of negative energy in such a depressing environment.


    Not to mention that they had to endure the pain of being tortured at all times due to the transformation of their bodies.


    Just such a simple provocation made some people lose their minds.


    After saying this, a person with a strange appearance took the lead to break through the City Lord¡¯s residence.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    After this person entered the City Lord¡¯s residence, he saw Zhou Feng sitting cross-legged on the floor. The two mouths on his face immediately split open.


    ¡°As long as you can swallow the Sacred Blood bloodline, you can suppress the mutation of your body. You might even be able to obtain the Sacred Blood bloodline!¡±


    These words kept echoing in this person¡¯s mind.


    Shi Xuan had had enough of this ghastly appearance. He wanted to turn back into a normal person, then leave the Bottom of the Abyss and return to the surface.


    This was because he was not born at the Bottom of the Abyss, but like Zhou Feng, he had come here by accident.


    Shi Xuan had spent a whole 80 years here, and all of his previous cultivation had been lost.


    In order to survive, he could only think of a way to get the Destiny Blood and then transform his body.


    Fortunately, his luck was very good, and his physique was very compatible with the Gluttony Demon.


    For this, Shi Xuan transplanted two Gluttony Demon¡¯s mouths onto both sides of his face.


    The original mouth was directly sewn up with needles and thread.


    After a long period of adaptation, his body had completely adapted to the contamination of the Gluttony Demon.


    He even began to mutate, obtaining the demon¡¯s innate ability, Gluttony!


    This ability could devour the bodies of other demons and turn them into nourishment.


    It was also because of this innate ability that Shi Xuan had spent 80 years at the Bottom of the Abyss, and his body had been strengthened to the peak.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, a very ferocious-looking person pounced on him at breakneck speed.


    The two mouths on his cheeks were drooling.


    ¡°Flesh and Blood Furnace! Rise!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng stripped off his own flesh and blood.


    That¡¯s right! If one wanted to activate the Flesh and Blood Furnace, the first thing they had to do was use their own flesh and blood as a primer.


    Thus, a horrifying scene appeared.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh and blood began to fall continuously. His skin began to split open, and the bright red blood emitted a Blood Qi that broke through the clouds.


    ¡°Suicide?¡±


    In Shi Xuan¡¯s eyes, such a scene was suicide.


    Although he did not understand why Zhou Feng would do this, he felt that this was an excellent opportunity.


    ¡°Devour!¡±


    The shadow of the Gluttony Demon appeared behind Shi Xuan, and it looked like it was going to devour the world.


    It wanted to take this opportunity to devour Zhou Feng and all the flesh and blood that fell.


    However, in the next second, Zhou Feng simply threw a punch.


    A crisp sound rang out, and Shi Xuan¡¯s spine was broken.


    His strong body, which swords had never injured in the past, was now very weak when faced with Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    This punch was not only boosted by the passive Human Slayer¡¯s buff, but it also triggered the passive Armor-Piercing Fist.


    It was more than enough to deal with these small fries. After all, at the Bottom of the Abyss, most people only had strong bodies.


    In terms of difficulty, they could not compare to the geniuses on the surface.


    ¡°Origin Drain!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s voice sounded a little weak.


    In the next second, Shi Xuan felt his flesh and blood were forcefully taken away.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The feeling of his flesh and blood being taken away was simply horrifying.


    Shi Xuan could not believe that he could be so vulnerable.


    He had been consuming the flesh and blood of demons for 80 years and transformed his body into a demon body. He suppressed the mutation of his body every day and night.


    In the end? He was so vulnerable in front of Zhou Feng?


    Such a huge gap made Shi Xuan break down. Why did he have to be the first to charge? Why couldn¡¯t he bear it?


    The strong resentment and unwillingness caused some changes to Shi Xuan¡¯s body.


    ¡°Eat! I want to eat more!¡±


    He was bewitched with one thought!


    Shi Xuan¡¯s soul could no longer suppress the contamination of the demonic aura.


    The originally sewn mouth slowly opened at this moment, and threads broke.


    Following closely behind were many others who had flipped through.


    These people immediately launched their attacks the moment they saw Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng stood at his original spot without the slightest expression, and countless void spears appeared behind him.


    With the help of the AI, they pierced into the eye sockets of all the enemies from a strange angle.


    Even Shi Xuan was no exception.


    Shi Xuan¡¯s resistance at the moment of life and death was a little funny.


    It did not even attract much attention from Zhou Feng.


    The void spear completely destroyed Shi Xuan¡¯s soul.


    Then, his flesh, vitality, and everything else were drained, leaving only a pile of bones.


    The others didn¡¯t fare any better. Countless pieces of flesh and blood were like swallows returning to their nests.


    A furnace made of flesh and blood was slowly taking shape.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm face looked even more terrifying.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The noisy voices seemed to have stopped at this moment.


    All the sounds coming from the City Lord¡¯s residence disappeared.


    What replaced them was an eerie silence and the formation of a huge Flesh and Blood Furnace.


    ¡°Continue!¡±


    Lu Ba, who was hiding in the dark, frowned slightly. He just continued to incite more people to charge into the City Lord¡¯s residence.


    He did not believe that Zhou Feng and An Lian would have the strength to kill everyone in the city.


    Hence, Lu Ba continued to incite others while he waited for a perfect opportunity.


    2

 Chapter 571 - Already a Success!

    ¡°Flesh and Blood Furnace?¡±


    An Lian looked at Zhou Feng¡¯s current state and recognized that he was using the Flesh and Blood Furnace.


    To be honest, An Lian had never thought that Zhou Feng would actually be able to use the Flesh and Blood Furnace.


    This technique belonged to the perilous category. Before this, there had already been ancestors who had fallen because of this technique.


    ¡°You can just go back and stay there!¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at An Lian, his entire being exuding a dangerous aura.


    At this critical juncture, he did not want to be disturbed by anyone.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    An Lian could only nod when she saw this. She could not provide any help at this moment. Rather than staying there and distracting Zhou Feng¡¯s attention, she might as well hide.


    The rebellion in the city was actually within An Lian¡¯s expectations. She had already sensed that the atmosphere in the city wasn¡¯t right. She had even shared some secrets with Zhou Feng. Now it seemed that Zhou Feng could solve all the problems by himself.


    ¡®Then do I really have to leave the Bottom of the Abyss in the end?¡¯


    An Lian turned around and left while pondering. She had been born and raised here, so she had long gotten used to everything here.


    However, from the looks of it, Zhou Feng was obviously unwilling to stay here. The intelligent An Lian had long noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.


    So now there was a problem in front of her.


    Should she follow Zhou Feng and leave, or continue to stay here alone?


    Originally, An Lian was somewhat self-deprecating due to the various crises stacked together.


    Now, Zhou Feng was like a divine weapon descending from the heavens, looking as if he could wipe out everything.


    This caused An Lian to calm down quite a bit.


    Without the crisis, perhaps the life at the Bottom of the Abyss was more suitable for her?


    If she returned to the surface, she might have to go through all sorts of deceit.


    She was naturally a little afraid of the idea of facing a completely unfamiliar environment.


    Zhou Feng did not know what An Lian was thinking. He was currently experiencing an unprecedented test.


    The Flesh and Blood Furnace formed from the extraction of countless pieces of flesh and blood was gradually taking shape. The boiling Blood Qi produced a large amount of heat, and the air around the furnace was already beginning to distort.


    Zhou Feng placed his entire body into the furnace.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    He felt as if his body had been distorted.


    Countless pieces of flesh and blood were fused together with his body, and his vitality was constantly decreasing.


    The Fate Wheel used all its strength to barely lock down half of it.


    What was even more terrifying was that his soul felt like it was being cooked in a raging fire during this process.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t!¡±


    ¡°Save me!¡±


    All kinds of voices and emotions attacked his soul.


    A few seconds later, the Flesh and Blood Furnace turned into a huge meatball, and Zhou Feng himself became one with the huge meatball.


    Only the head remained in its original state, growing on the top of the huge meatball.


    ¡°Not enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that the nutrients he needed to support himself were not enough.


    Under this tremendous pressure, a drop of pure blood slowly took shape. This drop of blood contained the laws of the Dao of Longevity.


    At the same time, it crazily absorbed the vitality and biomass of the Flesh and Blood Furnace.


    The Flesh and Blood Furnace, which was originally like magma, actually turned black, which meant that there was not enough flesh.


    Fortunately, another group of people was incited to come in at that moment.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    The people who entered the City Lord¡¯s residence didn¡¯t even have time to see clearly.


    Their flesh and blood were stripped off their bones, and their vitality was plundered.


    ¡°This, this, this¡­¡±


    ¡°I told you it isn¡¯t easy to break into the City Lord¡¯s residence!¡±


    ¡°What should we do now? The formation outside hasn¡¯t been repaired yet! The demon tide will descend tomorrow!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The hubbub of discussions abruptly stopped, giving way to silence in just a second.


    Many people immediately panicked. What should they do now?


    The demon tide would descend tomorrow. Now that many people had attacked the City Lord¡¯s residence, how could they survive the demon tide tomorrow?


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    At that moment, Lu Ba felt that he had misjudged Zhou Feng¡¯s strength.


    But at the end of the day, there was no turning back.


    Thus, a demonic sound slowly spread out as a small rattle drum appeared in Lu Ba¡¯s hand.


    The surface of the drum seemed to be made of some kind of animal skin, and there were some strange patterns on it.


    The drum¡¯s simple sound had a charm that could make people go crazy.


    At that moment, everyone in the city went crazy!


    Pairs of bloodshot eyes looked in Zhou Feng¡¯s direction.


    All sorts of roars rose and fell.


    The entire city rioted!


    Zhou Feng, who was observing everything with Heaven¡¯s Legacy, saw everything.


    ¡°What perfect coordination!¡±


    He was still worrying about how to get these people to voluntarily come to him.


    He and Lu Ba had perfect cooperation. This was simply perfect.


    The flesh and blood of the bodies were peeled off one by one, and a stream of longevity substances and vitality gathered together.


    It only took an hour for the entire city to fall silent.


    The City Lord¡¯s residence was like a black hole, devouring everything.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Unknowingly, a drop of cold sweat appeared on Lu Ba¡¯s forehead.


    What should he do now?


    There was no movement at all? Why was this?


    Why was there no sound of an intense battle? Why did everyone fall silent after entering the manor?


    Strange! This was really strange!


    ¡°Calm down! Quickly calm down!¡±


    Facing such a strange situation, Lu Ba could only force himself to calm down.


    But how could he calm down?


    This was completely different from his original plan.


    What made Lu Ba even more frustrated was that the demon tide was about to arrive, and he did not have much time to plan.


    ¡°Wait first? No way! Now is the best chance. If I continue to wait, there will only be accidents!¡±


    Lu Ba originally wanted to wait, but he quickly rejected his idea. Wasn¡¯t now the best chance?


    He didn¡¯t believe that Zhou Feng and An Lian could finish off the entire city in such a short period.


    The blindfold technique?


    ¡°I was almost scared!¡±


    Lu Ba almost jumped up.


    There was definitely some sort of formation inside the City Lord¡¯s residence, blocking out all sounds.


    ¡®An intense battle should be taking place inside. If I continue waiting here, I will miss my opportunity!¡¯


    At that moment, Lu Ba came up with a seemingly perfect reason in his mind.


    There were so many people, and 90% of them had been modified by Destiny Blood and had all sorts of strange abilities. No matter how strong the Sacred Blood race was, it was impossible to finish off the city¡¯s inhabitants so quickly.


    As a Sacred Blood member, Lu Ba understood this very well.


    Thus, he decided to take the initiative to attack in the next second.


    ¡°Charge!¡±


    He clenched the heart of confusion in his hand tightly and jumped out from the ground.


    Now was the time to reap the harvest!


    However, what Lu Ba did not know that a complete crushing defeat was awaiting him.


    Alas, he did not know that. He was a little excited because he believed his plan had definitely succeeded!

 Chapter 572 - The Demon Tides Arrival!

    Lu Ba charged out from the dark underground.


    ¡°I hope everything goes smoothly!¡±


    For some reason, he felt a little uneasy.


    But now, he had no way out. If he did not take this opportunity to kill Zhou Feng and An Lian, then the chances after that would be even slimmer.


    At this time, the Temptation Heart Drum in his hand made Lu Ba feel slightly at ease.


    This Temptation Heart Drum was not an ordinary dao artifact. Other than its ability to bewitch people¡¯s hearts, it also had a powerful defensive ability. If the situation was not right, he should be able to fight for a chance to escape with the powerful defensive ability of the Temptation Heart Drum.


    Under this kind of anxious state of mind, Lu Ba barged into the City Lord¡¯s residence.


    Following that, he saw Zhou Feng, whose lower body was wrapped in a lump of flesh and blood.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s upper body was currently naked, and his lower body was a huge meatball.


    This meatball was formed from countless pieces of flesh and blood, and it was still squirming as if it was beating like a heart.


    The huge amount of Blood Qi caused a terrifying amount of heat, and the stone bricks on the ground were all burnt red.


    Such a scene caused Lu Ba¡¯s heart to skip a beat.


    ¡°Flesh and Blood Furnace? Impossible! How is this possible!?¡±


    Lu Ba recognized that Zhou Feng was using the Flesh and Blood Furnace.


    This was simply inconceivable. Was he crazy?


    The demon tide was about to arrive! Yet, he was using the Flesh and Blood Furnace at this time? Was he thinking that he had lived too long?


    Furthermore, the Sacred Blood race had abandoned the Flesh and Blood Furnace a long time ago.


    Such a deadly technique was not worth the risk.


    ¡°Are you the mastermind?¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng slowly raised his head and stared at Lu Ba with his emotionless eyes.


    At the same time, he looked at the Temptation Heart Drum in his hand.


    ¡°Mastermind? If you mean¡­¡±


    Lu Ba heard his words and raised his eyebrows. He did not seem to be flustered at all, as if he had a backup plan.


    But before he could finish his words, a lump of flesh exploded.


    Lu Ba¡¯s figure also took this opportunity, intending to rush out of Ash City.


    ¡°Pervert! This is a pervert!¡±


    As Lu Ba escaped, he gnashed his teeth and cursed angrily.


    Since Zhou Feng could cast the Flesh and Blood Furnace and even maintain his consciousness after devouring an entire city of people, what was he if not a pervert?


    Such a person was not someone Lu Ba could provoke. He did not want to die. He wanted to continue living and change his current appearance.


    Hence, Lu Ba did not hesitate to escape. Moreover, his escape caught people off guard.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    A trace of madness flashed in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    A huge hand stretched out from the meatball on the lower half of his body. This huge hand was covered in lumps of flesh.


    It looked extremely ugly and disgusting, but it contained a huge amount of Blood Qi.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Black spikes instantly emerged from Lu Ba¡¯s body, and he buried his head and charged forward.


    At the same time, the drum in his hand began to shake crazily.


    The low drum sound spread in all directions, attracting the attention of countless demons.


    ¡°Crimsonfiend Lotus, go!¡±


    A blood-colored lotus flower appeared above Zhou Feng¡¯s head.


    This was initially his lifebound artifact, the green lotus. However, it was now contaminated by a huge amount of filthy Blood Qi, and it had a ghastly appearance now.


    Although its appearance had changed, its power did not weaken.


    Instead, it increased the suppressive force.


    The Crimsonfiend Lotus slowly rose into the sky, and its Blood Qi surged endlessly, like a rising sun that illuminated everything.


    Lu Ba immediately felt an unprecedented suppressive force, and his speed instantly decreased.


    Then, he was ruthlessly gripped by the giant hand of flesh and blood.


    Lu Ba only felt his entire body groaning, and his bones were breaking one by one.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Under such a critical situation, he continuously shook the drum in his hand.


    However, it was useless. The huge hand that was covered in lumps of flesh was carrying a huge amount of Blood Qi and longevity substances.


    Its recovery speed was stunningly fast. Even if it was injured, it would recover at the first instant.


    Lu Ba was quickly dragged back and merged with the flesh ball on Zhou Feng¡¯s lower body.


    The screams came to an abrupt end. This place once again regained its peace.


    This time, it was true peace as almost everyone in Ash City had been swallowed up.


    Only Zhou Feng and An Lian were left.


    ¡°Why do I look like a great devil now?¡±


    Zhou Feng could not help but grumble. He then played with the drum that he had obtained from Lu Ba.


    This drum was really interesting.


    Even if one didn¡¯t beat the two drum faces, they were constantly emitting a bewitching power.


    No wonder Lu Ba could use this dao artifact to bewitch everyone to attack him.


    However, this item now belonged to him.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng was in very good condition. The side effects of the Flesh and Blood Furnace were not that obvious to him.


    Although, from the beginning, all sorts of low and mysterious voices kept appearing in his ears, the AI directly helped him filter out these voices.


    Zhou Feng himself was not affected much.


    On the contrary, with the help of the Flesh and Blood Furnace, he continued to transform his Longevity bloodline.


    The various marks in his body were also the only ones that had been smelted.


    The mark of the Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, the mark left behind by the cultivation of the Human Emperor Scriptures, and the marks left behind by the cultivation of other divine abilities were all washed away.


    Although the price was that the divine abilities he had cultivated previously could not be used for the time being, it did not matter. Zhou Feng would soon have his own exclusive divine ability.


    In the dark underground¡­


    In a secret location, a giant eye suddenly opened.


    Other than the gray eyeball, the giant eye was covered with all kinds of twisted sarcomas. An ominous aura began to sweep across the entire abyss.


    The demon tide had arrived!


    This demon tide was even more ferocious and terrifying than the previous demon tides.


    Countless amounts of Demonic Qi began to engulf everything, accompanied by all kinds of monsters and demons that had been dormant for a long time.


    At that moment, the safety lamp in Ash City was emitting a weak light. It only covered a room, but the place where Zhou Feng was was not covered by the light at all.


    ¡°It¡¯s here!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression became a little solemn.


    He had been waiting for the demon tide to descend. What was going to happen next was extremely important to him.


    It was all up to now to take this opportunity to allow the Longevity bloodline to complete a new transformation.


    Because there was no light shining on them, countless demons directly surged toward Zhou Feng.


    These demons were accompanied by a demonic aura that was as black as ink. Their bodies were emitting all sorts of emotions, killing intent, hatred, and the intent to devour everything.


    Their posture was as if they wanted to kill all living things.


    However, in front of Zhou Feng, these extremely vicious demons let out all kinds of miserable cries under the illumination of a sea of Blood Qi.


    Their flesh and blood were stripped! The demonic aura was forcefully absorbed.


    Forcefully devouring a demon was a very unwise action.


    However, it was not worth mentioning when it came to Zhou Feng. This was because he had the passive Perfect Transformation, which could convert everything, even the demonic aura, into pure Spiritual Qi.


    Therefore, the seemingly worthless demonic aura was a super tonic for Zhou Feng.

 Chapter 573 - Love in the Dew

    The descent of the demon tide was a terrifying matter at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    Because at this time, countless demons would appear. These demons had strange shapes and all kinds of special abilities.


    At the same time, they were very good at besieging. Their only weakness was probably the light emitted by the safety lamp.


    However, at this moment, Zhou Feng was crazily devouring all the demons that were charging at him.


    The huge amount of Demonic Qi directly corroded Zhou Feng¡¯s body, including the Flesh and Blood Furnace.


    At this moment, he looked ferocious, and his body seemed to have been dyed black.


    ¡°Not enough! Not enough!¡±


    Zhou Feng could feel that the Longevity bloodline in his body was growing at a crazy rate.


    Other than that, all kinds of passive skills were also improving. This kind of improvement could be seen with the naked eye.


    However, just this alone was not enough.


    He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to establish his own dao foundation.


    With the Longevity bloodline as the main source, he could condense an unprecedented physical body and transform his soul at the same time.


    Such a safe and efficient improvement had to be cherished.


    2


    Therefore, next, Zhou Feng made a crazy move.


    1


    He picked up the Temptation Heart Drum he had just obtained and started to shake it gently.


    The low sound of the drum kept spreading.


    This made the surrounding demon tide even more turbulent.


    Even under the situation of the demon tide, he was still shaking the Temptation Heart Drum. He simply didn¡¯t want to live anymore.


    In the eyes of others, he simply didn¡¯t want to die fast enough.


    More and more demons were attracted by the drumming of the Temptation Heart Drum.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s position seemed to have become the center, and the Demonic Qi at the Bottom of the Abyss became restless.


    The Demonic Qi even condensed into a black cloud, and the ominous blood color in the black cloud became thicker and thicker.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    An Lian, who was hiding in the room, felt a powerful will descend.


    The light of the safety lamp above her head began to flicker. She had no idea what Zhou Feng had done, but she could feel that this demonic tide was even more terrifying than before.


    ¡°Awesome!¡± exclaimed Zhou Feng in delight.


    These demons were like endless nourishment.


    The Flesh and Blood Furnace was like a millstone, snatching away all the flesh and blood.


    In contrast, Zhou Feng¡¯s body became plump and fat.


    Countless tentacles grew out of the huge meatball, and all kinds of deformed organs were growing.


    But soon, this ominous scene slowly disappeared.


    ¡°Destiny Blood!¡±


    Zhou Feng took out all the Destiny Blood that he had plundered in Ash City.


    Then, he poured it out all at once.


    He wanted to take this opportunity to make use of the miraculous effects of the Destiny Blood to re-condense his physical body and wash away all the marks from before.


    As soon as the Destiny Blood touched his physical body, it started to have a strange reaction.


    The one with the most intense reaction should be the Longevity bloodline.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng was undergoing an unprecedented transformation.


    After an unknown amount of time, the originally surging demon tide gradually came to a stop.


    The surrounding demons suddenly became scarce.


    According to past experience, the demon tide would last for at least seven days.


    But now, it only lasted for less than three days before it showed signs of dissipating. This was an extremely rare thing.


    At this time, the Flesh and Blood Furnace had already dissipated.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have returned to normal.


    ¡°This is the Longevity bloodline!¡±


    He slowly opened his eyes. There were no special phenomena, nor were there any exaggerated changes.


    Yet, the current Zhou Feng gave off a very gentle and natural feeling.


    His every action exuded a natural and harmonious feeling. There was neither a handsome appearance nor a domineering aura.


    There was only a kind of harmony between heaven and man.


    Even Zhou Feng himself did not expect that he had succeeded!


    He had successfully condensed his Longevity bloodline. He used his innate divine ability as a primer and the inheritance of Heavenly Venerate Longevity as a foundation.


    Finally, he added all kinds of opportunities and condensed his own Longevity bloodline.


    Even the most core Fate Wheel had condensed a second circle.


    But the price was that all the divine abilities he had learned before were washed away.


    His body and soul were in unprecedented harmony. When using the divine abilities others had created, there would always be problems of incompatibility.


    1


    Next, if Zhou Feng wanted to display all his strength, he needed to create his own divine abilities.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng easily broke past the first sub-realm of Dao Enlightenment, Dao Seeking.


    Zhou Feng had already understood the path he was going to take, so he had reached the second sub-realm of Dao Enlightenment, Dao Essence.


    At the same time, he did not know what level his physical body had reached.


    After devouring the flesh and blood essence of countless demons and the stimulation of the Longevity bloodline, his physical body had reached another level.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s bones were engraved with various patterns. These patterns were all condensed from the flesh and blood essence of countless demons.


    Unknowingly, his physical body had surpassed countless monsters.


    His physical body had even formed a kind of physique.


    His strength had greatly improved!


    Next, he had to consider how to leave the abyss and return to the surface.


    ¡°Central Plains!¡±


    This time, Zhou Feng set his eyes on the Central Plains.


    He felt that there was no stage for him to perform in the Eastern Lan with his current strength.


    The Eastern Land was occupied by a group of old fellows who wanted to escape. The Daemon League gave him the feeling that it was lifeless.


    All of them wanted to escape. They kept moving the Spiritual Veins and gathering them to the easternmost region.


    Then, they closed the door and played by themselves. This was really too depressing.


    Those so-called geniuses could not withstand a single blow in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    Only those in the Ascendance realm had the qualifications to contend with him.


    Under such circumstances, Zhou Feng naturally set his sights on the Central Plains.


    He wanted to see just how many monsters he would encounter there.


    ¡°But before that, those grudges must all be settled! Also, I have to make a trip to the Azure Fox Clan!¡±


    Before heading to the Central Plains, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t forget to settle the grudges with the Daemon League.


    There was also the Azure Fox Clan. When thinking about it, there were quite a lot of things.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    While Zhou Feng was in deep thought, An Lian walked up to him with a blood flower in her hand.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°Are you returning to the surface?¡±


    An Lian¡¯s expression was a little complicated.


    ¡°That¡¯s right,¡± Zhou Feng said straightforwardly.


    He could not stay at the Bottom of the Abyss forever.


    Although there were many secrets here, as well as things like the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines that were worth digging out, the attraction of the Bottom of the Abyss had decreased by a lot in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    The completion of the Longevity bloodline made Zhou Feng urgently need all kinds of treasures to replenish his foundation.


    Because only with a large number of treasures as the foundation could he create his own divine ability.


    If there were no accidents, he would probably head to the easternmost land and ruthlessly plunder what he needed.


    Finally, he would go to the Azure Fox Clan and plunder all their treasures before heading to the Central Plains.


    ¡°I see! I understand! But you will only be able to leave after three days!¡±


    An Lian was still afraid of returning to the surface. She had been living at the Bottom of the Abyss for so long and had already gotten used to everything here. Following Zhou Feng back to the surface and facing the unfamiliar environment and unfamiliar people was a very difficult thing.


    Thus, An Lian wanted Zhou Feng to stay for three days to finish this love affair.


    1

 Chapter 574 - Breathing back Blood!

    Zhou Feng respected An Lian¡¯s wishes.


    Moreover, he was used to being alone. Although he did not reject women, he would not pursue them too much.


    In the next three days, Zhou Feng spent a lot of time increasing An Lian¡¯s strength, and he even returned Heaven¡¯s Legacy to An Lian.


    This was so that An Lian could ensure her safety here.


    An Lian was also very cooperative. She wanted to have a child, so she squeezed Zhou Feng dry during these three days.


    Unfortunately, she didn¡¯t succeed in the end.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body had undergone a metamorphosis, and his Longevity bloodline had condensed. It was a very difficult thing to give birth to a descendant.


    1


    The stronger the bloodline, the lower the chance of giving birth to a descendant. This was already considered an iron law.


    After dealing with everything, it was time for them to part.


    An Lian was still wearing a white dress. Under Zhou Feng¡¯s nourishment, she looked a little more radiant.


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    The two didn¡¯t say much; they just bid farewell.


    If there were no accidents, it would be very difficult for the two to meet again.


    It could be said that An Lian¡¯s personality was compatible with Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    However, he could only say that it was a pity.


    Zhou Feng yearned for immortality, so he could not stay at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    There were countless monsters in the Central Plains, and the place with countless orthodoxies was his final destination.


    Zhou Feng also did not hesitate in the slightest. After saying goodbye, he directly left Ash City.


    It could be said he had received a huge upgrade in Ash City. He had established the Longevity bloodline, reconstructed his physical body, and solidified his foundation through the torrent of information he obtained from Heaven¡¯s Legacy.


    Ash City was like a reward for overcoming so many obstacles.


    However, this kind of experience made Zhou Feng very vigilant.


    ¡°Great danger! Great danger! Great danger!¡±


    From the moment he left Ash City, the AI had been using Hexadirectional Calculation to make predictions.


    Every time, it was a great danger!


    Moreover, it was the highest level of danger, the bloody ¡®great danger¡¯ words.


    It made Zhou Feng very vigilant. Who exactly was the person who posed such a great threat to him?


    After completing the bloodline transformation and cultivating the second ring of his Fate Wheel, Zhou Feng could even bluntly say that he was able to fight against an Ascendant.


    This was because demons were actually considered humans as well. There was a huge increase in the passive Human Slayer, Talent Plundering, Soul Harvesting, and so on.


    He was unable to estimate how strong he was.


    As his realm increased, the division of realms behind was actually not that strict.


    This was because countless geniuses and prodigies had the ability to challenge those of a higher realm.


    In the later stages of cultivation, the competition was about one¡¯s comprehension of the great Dao.


    Although some geniuses only appeared to be in the Divine Ability realm, their strength was not any weaker than those in the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    In the middle, they directly crossed the entire Dragon Transformation realm.


    Not to mention some special physiques that were born to stand at the peak.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng needed an opponent to test his strength.


    ¡°I need to be more passive!¡±


    He glanced at the skill panel and found that the progress bar was full.


    After killing countless demons and all the people in Ash City, Zhou Feng gained a lot of destiny power.


    This destiny power filled the progress bar and allowed him to continue to draw passive skills.


    Although as the number of passive skills increased, Zhou Feng could feel that the progress bar was growing slower and slower.


    However, this did not affect the speed at which Zhou Feng obtained passive skills.


    The most important reason was that his strength had increased.


    The stronger he was, the more he could change destiny, and the greater the impact he would have.


    Therefore, the speed at which he obtained the passive skills did not decrease. Instead, it was increasing.


    ¡°Let¡¯s begin!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately drew the new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Blood Recovery: With every breath, your injuries will be reduced by 10%. The more serious your injuries, the faster your recovery speed will be!


    1


    ¡®This passive skill¡­¡¯


    What else could he say about this passive skill? He could only use the word ¡®invincible¡¯ to describe it.


    It was yet another powerful passive skill.


    Moreover, it was a recovery skill. This passive skill was even more abnormal than Tenacious Heart.


    3


    It did not have any strict trigger conditions at all. As long as he was injured, it could be triggered.


    Simply put, once 10 points quantified Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries, this passive skill would be able to turn his injuries into 9 in a breath¡¯s time.


    Then, in the next breath, his injuries would turn from 9 to 8.1, and so on.


    In other words, the more serious Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries were, the stronger this passive skill would be, and the lighter his injuries would be, the more useless this passive skill would be.


    ¡°This time, I can really breathe and regain my blood!¡±


    After obtaining such a perverse passive ability, Zhou Feng¡¯s heart was slightly excited.


    However, the AI¡¯s calculations did not change.


    ¡°Great danger!¡±


    It was still a sign of great danger!


    ¡°So, where does the danger come from?¡±


    Zhou Feng advanced forward, heading towards the center of the abyss, where a large number of people were gathered.


    It was also a place that had a path to the surface.


    ¡­


    Silence!


    Along the way, Zhou Feng discovered a very interesting phenomenon, which was that it was very quiet.


    Logically speaking, the closer he got to the center, the more people there would be and the livelier it would be.


    However, there was actually not a single sound in the surroundings.


    This was very strange.


    ¡°You¡¯re finally here! I¡¯ve been waiting for you for a long time!¡±


    Suddenly, a hoarse voice entered Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    A figure blocked him In the dark and narrow passageway.


    From his tone, it seemed like he had been waiting for Zhou Feng for a long time.


    ¡®So, the danger comes from this person?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had enough confidence in his strength. At that moment, he wasn¡¯t flustered. Instead, he was curious.


    ¡®Do I know this person? Why does this person sound like he knows me?¡¯


    He saw a skinny old man staring at Zhou Feng strangely.


    His spine was clearly swollen, and there was not much flesh on his hands. However, his entire body was emitting a sharp aura that shot up to the sky.


    ¡°Do you know! I have been waiting for you for a whole 800 years! A whole 800 years!¡±


    When Wu Zhou said this, he gnashed his teeth. It was as if he and Zhou Feng had a deep enmity.


    An even sharper aura began to erupt when he said that.


    The entire passageway began to tremble crazily. The sharp aura was so oppressive that it was almost suffocating.


    What followed was an unrivaled storm. The momentum was so great that it would shake one¡¯s heart.


    ¡°But it¡¯s good! You¡¯re finally here! Everything I¡¯ve done is not in vain!¡±


    Wu Zhou seemed to have calmed down in the blink of an eye.


    However, Zhou Feng still could not understand what he was saying.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, the person in front of him was definitely the Riddler.


    Since this person wanted to stop him, he could just make a move.


    ¡°Sharpening a sword every 800 years! Only for today!¡±


    Wu Zhou slowly pulled out a thin sword from somewhere.


    The speed of this sword drawing was very slow as if it was brewing something, and an aura was quietly accumulating.


    ¡°Riddler! Die!¡±


    1


    Zhou Feng directly made a move!


    He would not be foolish enough to wait for Wu Zhou to accumulate his aura.

 Chapter 575 - Endless Chatter

    Zhou Feng used the most primitive power, the terrifying raw power that burst out of his body.


    At that moment, it was as if he wanted to tear everything nearby into pieces.


    The surging Blood Qi was like a monstrous wave.


    ¡°Open!¡±


    Wu Zhou seemed to have expected this, and his skinny body didn¡¯t waver at all.


    The thin sword in his hand lightly slashed.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch created a terrifying power and was immediately split in half.


    The long thin sword was emitting a different kind of radiance at this moment.


    It was clearly so simple, but everything around it was crumbling.


    Under this sharp aura, the mountain rocks were continuously breaking into small pieces.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! In order to deal with you and your terrifying body, I¡¯ve been nurturing this Sword Qi for 800 years!¡±


    Wu Zhou wore a sinister smile as the thin sword in his hand was connected to heaven and earth.


    His entire body was like a divine sword, and his killing intent soared to its peak.


    Worse, the rocks above their heads kept falling due to their collision.


    The aftermath of this battle directly destroyed this passage.


    Under such circumstances, the two were very likely to be buried alive.


    The Bottom of the Abyss was not the surface, and gargantuan mountain rocks were above their heads. If they were not careful, they could be buried here forever at any time.


    Under normal circumstances, the two of them should have withdrawn their strength to avoid dying together here.


    However, Wu Zhou showed no signs of taking a step back. On the contrary, his peerless Sword Qi was still destroying the tunnel.


    The invisible killing intent mixed with the sharp Sword Qi were wearing down Zhou Feng¡¯s will and body.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t listen to Wu Zhou at all. He was currently getting used to this overly sturdy body.


    The Longevity bloodline ran through his body, and under the influence of the huge longevity substances, he felt that he didn¡¯t even need to breathe now, and the cold and heat had very little effect on his body.


    ¡®Longevity substances! What effect do they have!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze was calm as he stomped his foot.


    The ground suddenly cracked, and the tunnel completely shattered. Countless pieces of gravel fell from the sky.


    Almost in an instant, both Wu Zhou and Zhou Feng were covered.


    But in the next second, Zhou Feng used this incomparably strong body to charge at Wu Zhou.


    The mere gravel could not affect him at all.¡±


    The thin sword in Wu Zhou¡¯s hand began to tremble, and an intense sword chime echoed.


    The solid rubble did not even have time to close before turning into powder.


    A streak of Sword Qi swept through the surroundings.


    However, the seemingly invincible Sword Qi made a clear sound on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! Heavenly Venerate Longevity! You can¡¯t be resurrected! My sword is specially prepared for you!¡±


    Seeing this scene, Wu Zhou was not surprised at all. On the contrary, a trace of fanaticism appeared on his face.


    Moreover, it was very interesting how he addressed Zhou Feng.


    ¡®Heavenly Venerate Longevity? Is he calling me?¡¯


    Zhou Feng had some doubts in his heart, but his expression did not change.


    Relying on his invincible body, he punched the sword.


    Instantly, a thin sword mark appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s entire arm.


    The sharp sword intent was still attached to the wound.


    This seemingly hard-to-recover wound was healing at speed visible to the naked eye.


    The passive Blood Recovery¡¯s effect was immediately displayed.


    In addition, all kinds of passive effects were slowly overlapping in the fierce battle.


    ¡®So why is it still a sign of great danger?¡¯


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t understand why Hexadirectional Calculation still showed a sign of great danger.¡±¡±


    Given Wu Zhou¡¯s strength, it was impossible to hurt Zhou Feng.


    Compared to Zhou Feng¡¯s ease, Wu Zhou looked much more miserable.


    His skinny body seemed to be unable to withstand the explosion-like power. He let out an ear-piercing groan, and the sound of his teeth grinding against each other seemed to indicate that Wu Zhou¡¯s body was unable to withstand such a force.


    ¡®He really is a monster!¡¯ Wu Zhou cursed in his heart.


    This was pure raw power, and there was nothing added to it.


    The scariest thing was that this pure force was able to ignore his defense! What was going on?


    However, things had already come to this point, and there was no turning back. He had to seize this opportunity.


    He had planned for so long and sacrificed so many people for this opportunity.


    ¡°Destroy!¡±


    Crushed stones surrounded him in the darkness, and the pale sword light flickered again.


    This time, the sword intent contained the Dao of Destruction, and the laws of the great Dao seemed to descend.


    ¡°Dao Seeking?¡±


    At this time, Zhou Feng sensed Wu Zhou¡¯s realm.


    He was a Dao Seeking cultivator but was not even as good as him.


    For a time, the earth trembled, and the mountains shook. Many large cracks that were several meters wide opened under Wu Zhou¡¯s feet and spread into the distance. It was terrifying.


    The extreme sword light seemed to become the only thing in the dim environment.


    Facing such a powerful attack, Zhou Feng only threw a simple punch.


    The world-shaking sword radiance was immediately suppressed.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was riddled with countless sword scars, and one of them appeared on his neck.


    But it was still useless. These sword scars soon disappeared.


    During this process, not even a drop of blood had been lost.


    The birth of the second ring of the Fate Wheel gave Zhou Feng powerful control over his body.


    He could do it without leaving a single drop of blood in the battle if he wanted to.


    Even his skin would not fall off. During the battle, only wounds would appear on his body.


    ¡°Haha! This is the speed of recovery! The Longevity bloodline! You really have the Longevity bloodline! You still haven¡¯t changed!¡±


    With such a huge disadvantage, Wu Zhou looked even crazier.


    His tone indicated he already knew about Zhou Feng¡¯s existence.


    He even exposed Zhou Feng¡¯s secret.


    The Longevity bloodline! This should be his core secret. Once this secret was exposed, it would attract countless gazes.


    There was a hint of annoyance between Zhou Feng¡¯s brows.


    However, he still did not speak.


    In the depths of the underground, a muffled explosion suddenly sounded. The violent tremors even affected the ground.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng grabbed Wu Zhou and used his fists to hammer him violently.


    The sharp Sword Qi struggled crazily, but it was useless.


    Zhou Feng relied on his invincible body to tear Wu Zhou¡¯s skinny body apart.


    In the next second, Wu Zhou¡¯s spine was ruthlessly pulled out.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! I¡¯ll come back! I¡¯m your lifelong enemy!¡± shouted Wu Zhou.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng discovered that Wu Zhou¡¯s body actually didn¡¯t have a trace of flesh and blood.


    It was completely a piece of skin and a set of bones.


    That seemingly incomparably sharp thin sword actually began to decay at this moment.


    ¡°As the reincarnation of Heavenly Venerate Longevity, you can¡¯t escape! You¡ª¡±


    Seeing that Wu Zhou was about to speak, Zhou Feng expressionlessly ravaged the body in front of him.


    Finally, the chattering stopped.


    ¡°Reincarnation? What nonsense!¡±


    Zhou Feng watched the wounds on his body recover quickly while he had the AI used Hexadirectional Calculation again.


    ¡®Let¡¯s see if it¡¯s still a bad omen!¡¯

 Chapter 576 - What Kind of Brain Was This!?

    ¡°It¡¯s still a sign of great danger? In other words, it¡¯s not over yet¡­¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw the prediction, a trace of doubt arose in his heart.


    Where did this person come from?


    From his words and actions, it seemed like he already knew of his existence.


    He kept saying some words with unknown meaning.


    To be honest, Wu Zhou¡¯s words caught Zhou Feng¡¯s attention because this seemed to involve a big secret and was related to Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    He had obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance not long ago, which was a bit too much of a coincidence no matter what.


    It was really easy for people to make connections.


    Zhou Feng only thought about it and didn¡¯t delve too deeply into it.


    The Bottom of the Abyss was a bit too strange. It was better to return to the surface and talk about it quickly.


    As for the secret here, he didn¡¯t want to explore it.


    For him, there was no need to take any risks at all. By chance, this place had completely transformed his Longevity bloodline.


    It had also completely washed away the marks from the divine abilities. Now, he only needed to create his own techniques slowly.


    Then, he would be able to improve steadily without taking any risks.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng continued to move forward according to the original plan.


    ¡­


    ¡°The plan seems to have succeeded? Now, it has aroused the target¡¯s interest.¡±


    ¡°Are you sure that the immortal in the prophecy is this person?¡±


    ¡°It can¡¯t be wrong! There aren¡¯t many living people in the abyss anymore. In the last few hundred years, only one person with such a pure aura.¡±


    ¡°Then let¡¯s start according to the original plan! Release the information of the tunnel and lure the target forward!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A giant eye slowly closed, and the voice of Wu Zhou also slowly stopped.


    If Zhou Feng saw this scene, he would definitely be shocked as Wu Zhou was fine and well, not dead. He didn¡¯t seem to have received any damage at all.


    His body was still as thin as ever and exuded an extremely sharp aura.


    However, if one looked carefully, one could still see that his face was somewhat different from the Wu Zhou that Zhou Feng had encountered.


    ¡­


    A barren scene entered Zhou Feng¡¯s sight as he continued to advance toward his destination.


    ¡°So I¡¯ve come to the wrong place?¡±


    According to An Lian¡¯s description, the closer he was to the central area, the more people he would encounter.


    A super city had been formed at the very center of the abyss. All the demons and monsters around it had been expelled.


    However, the scene before him was empty.


    Dilapidated! Desolate!


    This scene was exactly the same as the one on the surface. Other than the easternmost region, the rest of the place was deserted.


    One could see blood-red words on the walls.


    These words were very messy, and Zhou Feng could see their despair and madness.


    It was as if they had encountered some kind of disaster, and they were the last words they left before they died.


    ¡°Great terror? Longevity?¡±


    Zhou Feng carefully collected all the information.


    The meaning of this information was that a great disaster would come one day.


    After that, most people were wiped out by the catastrophe, leaving only a small portion of them alive.


    Moreover, this catastrophe was related to longevity. It also involved Heavenly Venerate Longevity and the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines.


    ¡°Interesting!¡± Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    Judging from the information above, the Sacred Blood Amethyst Mines were formed by Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s blood.


    According to the legend, Heavenly Venerate Longevity had lived for more than ten lifetimes and shed a body in each life.


    And with each shed body, Heavenly Venerate Longevity would become even more terrifying.


    There was once a shed body of Heavenly Venerate Longevity at the Bottom of the Abyss, and this shed also gave birth to spiritual intelligence.


    It became another person, but this person didn¡¯t dare to move at all.


    He was afraid of being discovered by Heavenly Venerate Longevity after leaving the bottom of the abyss.


    In the end, he died of old age until a group of cultivators from the ground came here and excavated this place.


    Seeing this story, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how to comment.


    It looked very realistic, and from the scrawled handwriting, he could feel a hysterical madness.


    The life of Heavenly Venerate Longevity was indeed legendary.


    Wu Zhou had called him the reincarnation of Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    If it had been an ordinary person, they would definitely have wanted to continue investigating.


    That was Heavenly Venerate Longevity! If one found Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, wouldn¡¯t they strike it rich!?


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s mantra was that as long as he didn¡¯t act rashly, he could become a person like Heavenly Venerate Longevity sooner or later by relying on thousands of passive skills.


    In that case, there was no need to take any risks.


    Although the inheritances of these old monsters who had survived for God knew how long were great opportunities, they also meant great risks.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng just read the story as he walked.


    ¡°You¡¯re here!¡±


    Wu Zhou appeared again halfway through the journey.


    It was still a skinny body that exuded sharp Sword Qi. It was still the same tone of a swindler.


    However, Zhou Feng did not plan to waste any time.


    The moment he saw Wu Zhou, he activated all the power in his body, and his Blood Qi was like a boiling sea.


    The violent aura instantly destroyed everything around him.


    The majestic power instantly destroyed Wu Zhou.


    Wu Zhou did not even have the time to say anything before his physical body was destroyed.


    Zhou Feng had not used Overload for a long time. After the first attack, his physical body was still injured, but his injuries recovered after taking a breath.


    ¡°Not dead? A substitute? Or a puppet?¡±


    This time, Zhou Feng keenly felt that Wu Zhou was still not dead.


    It was just like the last time. Was he trying to lure him?


    For some reason, Zhou Feng felt a hint of a conspiracy.


    It was as if someone was deliberately targeting him.


    However, he had come to the Bottom of the Abyss by accident! How could this be explained?


    On the other side¡­


    ¡°Damn it! Why is he so strong? He only relied on his physical body! Why?


    ¡°However, this person should have fallen into my trap!¡±


    Although Wu Zhou¡¯s eyes were somewhat unhappy, what comforted him was that Zhou Feng was falling into his trap step by step.


    Zhou Feng was filled with curiosity right now. He was curious about what happened here and Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    The information on the walls indicated that there had once been the remains of Heavenly Venerate Longevity at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    The remains of the flesh of such an ancient almighty cultivator were something that any cultivator would find hard to refuse.


    ¡°Wait! What!?¡±


    Then, as if sensing something, Wu Zhou began to lose his composure.


    As it turned out, Zhou Feng went straight to the point upon sensing there was a conspiracy in the making. Instead of looking for a passage, he forcefully used his body to chisel his way up.


    3


    This also meant that all Wu Zhou¡¯s temptations were useless.


    ¡°I-Is there something wrong with him? He wants to use his body to chisel a path? He must be crazy!¡±


    Wu Zhou found it hard to understand Zhou Feng¡¯s brain.

 Chapter 577 - Anxious?

    Although Wu Zhou couldn¡¯t figure out what Zhou Feng was thinking, he soon realized it.


    He absolutely couldn¡¯t allow this to go on. He had waited for so long and made so many preparations.


    Wasn¡¯t it to lure Zhou Feng into his trap?


    Now that the prey wanted to escape, Wu Zhou was naturally the most anxious one.


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that the Bottom of the Abyss had completely changed ten years ago.


    The information he obtained from An Lian was already outdated.


    The center of the Bottom of the Abyss had been destroyed by an unprecedented demon tide ten years ago.


    Not a single person survived, but a single person had been creating signs that hadn¡¯t changed at all.


    That person was Wu Zhou.


    Wu Zhou was the ruler of the abyss, and he was once a mighty Ascendant.


    But as time passed, his body and soul aged.


    This caused the mind of the mighty Ascendant to begin to change.


    In the end, he found the reason for the outbreak of the demon tide, an eyeball.


    An eyeball from the shed of Heavenly Venerate Longevity had formed a new consciousness because the Demonic Qi had contaminated it.¡¯Search wuxiaworld* 0rg on google¡¯


    Wu Zhou had spent a lot of effort forming a symbiotic relationship with this eye.


    He had also received a prophecy that a person with Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance would come to the Bottom of the Abyss in the future.


    This was also the best opportunity for him to leave the Bottom of the Abyss.


    Therefore, when Zhou Feng appeared in Ash City, he immediately attracted Wu Zhou¡¯s attention.


    Then, he made a series of preparations.


    However, he never expected Zhou Feng¡¯s strength to increase quickly.


    And his brain circuits were also different from those of ordinary people.


    He had clearly released a lot of information for Zhou Feng, including key information such as Heavenly Venerate Longevity, reincarnation, and so on.


    However, Zhou Feng just didn¡¯t fall for it.


    After sensing that something was wrong, he tried to return to the surface by force.


    ¡°Chase!¡±


    Wu Zhou immediately reacted and wanted to stop Zhou Feng.


    On the other side¡­


    Zhou Feng relied on his invincible body to dig an extremely wide tunnel.


    He directly destroyed a large number of rocks.


    During this process, there were countless landslides, but Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care.


    Nothing could stop him.


    ¡®So there¡¯s no need for a tunnel at all. I just need to keep rushing upward!¡¯


    When Zhou Feng thought of this, he couldn¡¯t help but feel a little strange. Why had the people at the Bottom of the Abyss been trapped here for so long? Was there some other obstacle?


    He was somewhat unable to understand. Only those below the Divine Ability realm would be trapped here.


    Wasn¡¯t it a very simple thing to return to the surface?


    As long as he kept digging upward, he would be able to reach the surface sooner or later.


    ¡°Eh? A gold mine?¡±


    While he was crazily digging upward, Zhou Feng suddenly dug into a gold mine vein.


    This gold mine was very small. If it weren¡¯t for the AI¡¯s reminder,. he wouldn¡¯t have even noticed that the mine in front of him was a gold mine.


    Perfect! This gold mine could also become his nourishment.


    The passive Immortal Golden Bones required the collection of ores that contained immortal aura.


    Zhou Feng immediately stirred up the Blood Qi in his entire body, releasing a huge amount of heat.


    This gold mine vein was immediately purified.


    Not long after, a small piece of rough gold was purified.


    Zhou Feng placed this small piece of gold on his palm and quickly absorbed the essence.


    Only some impurities were left, and Zhou Feng¡¯s bones received a slight improvement.


    ¡°Another direction to increase my strength!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt his strength increase, and his mood instantly became better.


    Actually, from a certain perspective, he was already completely stuck at a bottleneck.


    Next, he did not know how to improve his strength. After reaching the Dao Essence realm, he had no idea how to break through to the Dao Comprehension realm.


    The speed of Zhou Feng¡¯s breakthroughs could be described as a rocket-like speed.


    He had reached his current level from a mortal in less than three years.


    What kind of breakthrough speed was this? Not to mention that during this process, he had even reconstructed his physical body. His foundation had basically been tempered a few times.


    It was completely incomparable to those demonic cultivators whose foundations were superficial.


    After getting used to this breakthrough speed, he had to spend more than ten years before he could have a breakthrough.


    Such a turtle-like speed was simply enough to make one break down.


    Fortunately, during this process, Zhou Feng would still be able to improve himself through all sorts of passive skills.


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape! This is where you belong!¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was about to continue digging, the haunting voice of Wu Zhou came again. It was still the same tone of a swindler.


    Zhou Feng completely ignored Wu Zhou and continued to dig upward.


    His hands were like hard chisels, each punch obliterating the hard stone slabs into gravel.


    As for Wu Zhou charging forward, Zhou Feng would burst out with all the strength in his body and use the purest form of raw power to shatter Wu Zhou.


    Then, he would rest for a few seconds and rely on his breathing to recover his blood. After recovering for a while, he would continue to excavate.


    During this process, Wu Zhou was like a small obstacle in his path, which was easily cleared away.


    ¡°Damn it! Damn it!¡±


    Another clone was shattered. At this time, Wu Zhou was about to go crazy from anger.


    He had never thought that this would be the result.


    Although Wu Zhou had planned a lot of things, his previous plans were useless against Zhou Feng.


    Wu Zhou had never met such a person before.


    ¡°No! Absolutely not! This is my last chance!¡±


    Unlike Zhou Feng, Wu Zhou was bound to the demon eye. If he wanted to leave the Bottom of the Abyss, he had to get rid of the demon eye or completely control it.


    And to control the demon eye, the longevity substances and the Sacred Blood bloodline were the most basic requirements.


    The demon eye was Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s shed that had gained spirituality.


    In order to control the demon eye, Wu Zhou had gone on a killing spree and killed almost everyone at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    But it was still far from enough because most people¡¯s Sacred Blood bloodline was too thin.


    By the time he reacted, only a few bloodlines remained.


    If it weren¡¯t for the prophecy stating an inheritor of Heavenly Venerate Longevity would appear at the Bottom of the Abyss in the future, Wu Zhou would have long committed suicide.


    Because of all these reasons, Wu Zhou definitely wouldn¡¯t let Zhou Feng off.


    In the depths of the abyss¡­


    The giant eye that was slowly closing suddenly opened.


    The demon tide that had just ended descended once again.


    And this time, the demon tide headed in the same direction.


    ¡°They¡¯re really anxious!¡±


    After Zhou Feng felt a huge shock, his heart immediately calmed down.


    As expected, that person was luring him. Seeing that he didn¡¯t fall for it a few times, he became anxious.


    This should be the great danger Hexadirectional Calculation kept predicting!


    Zhou Feng was expressionless as he waited for the demon tide to descend.

 Chapter 578 - More Luring Attempts...

    The demon tide descended once again!


    The surging demonic aura wanted to devour Zhou Feng.


    At the same time, there were a large number of demons, but to him, it was not a hindrance at all.


    Instead, it was as if a pile of nutrients had delivered themselves to his door.


    ¡°Devour!¡±


    Zhou Feng controlled his Fate Wheel and devoured all the demons in front of him.


    Flesh and blood! Longevity substances! Everything was plundered!


    After doing all this, he slowly used his physical body to carve a path to the ground.


    And because Zhou Feng did feel fatigued, his progress was extremely fast.


    If Wu Zhou did not stop him, Zhou Feng could really leave the Bottom of the Abyss by force.


    Although there were many accidents during this process, like the accumulated Yin Qi in the rock layer exploding once, Zhou Feng only needed to wait a few seconds for his injuries to slowly recover.


    As for his energy, it was even better.


    With his current endurance, even if he did not sleep for three days and three nights, he would not feel the slightest bit tired.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng already felt that he was not a normal person. The air, food, and other factors that trapped mortals could no longer restrict him.


    He was like a real immortal, able to directly feed on Spiritual Qi without needing to rest.


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape!¡±


    Wu Zhou¡¯s voice filled with grievance sounded again.


    It was the same sentence, the same familiar voice.


    Zhou Feng ignored Wu Zhou, as usual, not wanting to care about him at all.


    Unless Wu Zhou directly jumped out to confront him head-on, it was better to save that method of enticing him.


    However, this time, Wu Zhou was playing for real.


    It was as if he knew that if he did not use his full strength, he would have no chance of keeping Zhou Feng.


    Therefore, Wu Zhou did not use those clones to test him.


    ¡°Come back!¡±


    An unprecedented pressure spread from below.


    Wu Zhou rushed in front of Zhou Feng.


    The speed was so fast that it almost exceeded Zhou Feng¡¯s reaction speed.


    A handsome man with long hair appeared. He was like a supernova that was about to explode in this dim environment.


    The thick rock walls around were completely shattered, and sword marks were left in the void.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes lit up, and his ordinary-looking body instantly exploded.


    He immediately suppressed Wu Zhou.


    The massive amount of Blood Qi was like a mountain, and Wu Zhou immediately felt a pressure he had never felt before.


    The speed of Wu Zhou¡¯s descent was the same as the speed of his ascent.


    However, Zhou Feng did not gain any advantage, and his right fist was covered with sword marks.


    The sharp Sword Qi was still corroding his wounds.


    ¡°This¡­ Monster!¡±


    Wu Zhou¡¯s face was filled with disbelief as he flew backward.


    Although he had experienced Zhou Feng¡¯s perverse side before, he was now in his original body.


    His original body had formed a symbiotic relationship with the demon eye.


    His extremely terrifying body and his ability to control vitality gave him countless opportunities to comprehend the Dao.


    Before Wu Zhou had the demon eye, he was just a small transparent sword cultivator.


    His talent in the path of the sword was not outstanding, but he was slightly stronger than an ordinary person.


    Because the comprehension of the sword was very dangerous, the Sword Qi flowing through his body was very dangerous.


    If he was not careful, he would hurt himself. At the same time, his comprehension of the great Sword Dao was the same. If he was not careful, he would be pierced through by thousands of swords.


    Under this premise, only the most monstrous genius could comprehend the great Sword Dao.


    If his talent was mediocre, he might not be able to break through the bottleneck for his entire life.


    The Sword Dao was the exclusive great Dao of geniuses and monsters.


    However, ever since he obtained the demon eye, Wu Zhou¡¯s Sword Dao had begun to advance by leaps and bounds.


    This was because he was not afraid of getting hurt as the demon eye had inherited many of Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s abilities.


    For example, he could lock his vitality, heal his injuries, and live for a long time.


    With these abilities, Wu Zhou had comprehended a special kind of Sword Qi, the Seven-Wound Sword Qi.


    This kind of Sword Qi hurt others but also hurt himself. The Seven-Wound Sword Qi covered every part of his body.


    Normally, even if he did not fight, countless sword marks would appear on Wu Zhou¡¯s body, and then he would slowly recover.


    It was precisely this crazy Sword Qi that allowed him to use the demon tide as an opportunity to slaughter most of the people in the abyss.


    But now, Wu Zhou¡¯s Sword Qi, which had always been successful, was completely useless against Zhou Feng.


    Compared to Wu Zhou, Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery ability was heaven-defying.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng already had the Longevity bloodline and Fate Wheel.


    Just his various recovery-type passive skills were stronger than Wu Zhou¡¯s recovery ability.


    ¡°Impossible!¡±


    Wu Zhou once again rushed to Zhou Feng from underground.


    It seemed as if he had received a great blow because they were not on the same level at all.


    Zhou Feng could now see clearly what kind of person he was fighting with.


    Wu Zhou¡¯s appearance was extremely handsome. It could even be described as demonic. A man actually exuded that kind of soul-stirring charm.


    Also, Wu Zhou¡¯s body was basically naked. He had angular muscles and white skin.


    At first glance, he looked somewhat stunning.


    At the Bottom of the Abyss, where there were monsters everywhere, Wu Zhou¡¯s appearance was really eye-catching.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change much.


    His Blood Qi exploded with even more power, and he fiercely threw a punch.


    This seemingly ordinary punch pierced through the stone layer, and traces of killing intent seeped into Wu Zhou¡¯s bone marrow.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    At this moment, Wu Zhou seemed to be using all his strength to block. There was a trace of misery in his voice, as well as a trace of unwillingness.


    However, he was forcefully suppressed by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    When Wu Zhou was struck down again, the surroundings became quiet.


    Zhou Feng did not have the intention to go down and search for the corpse. He continued to dig upward as usual.


    Moreover, his speed was even faster than before.


    ¡°Why!?¡±


    Wu Zhou, who had fallen to the deepest part of the ground, noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s actions. His face revealed a look of exasperation.


    This was because his attempt to lure Zhou Feng had failed once again.


    He originally thought Zhou Feng would crush him after his main body appeared.


    Under such circumstances, Zhou Feng would definitely let down his guard, not to mention that there was a chain made of gold essence hanging around Wu Zhou¡¯s neck.


    This was to ignite Zhou Feng¡¯s greed.


    Wu Zhou had just discovered that Zhou Feng was collecting gold veins as if he was refining refined gold.


    But his plan did not work at all.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    Wu Zhou¡¯s exasperated figure disappeared into the darkness.


    It seemed like he had accepted his fate and was no longer stopping Zhou Feng.


    During this process, Wu Zhou even removed the chain of gold essence from his neck and threw it to the side.


    No matter how one looked at it, the meaning of the enticement was very obvious.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care what Wu Zhou was thinking at all. He just increased the digging speed, wanting to return to the surface quickly.

 Chapter 579 - Uneasiness

    In the process that followed, Zhou Feng did not encounter any obstacles.


    It seemed that Wu Zhou had already given up.


    However, Zhou Feng still retained a trace of vigilance in his heart.


    From his previous performance, Wu Zhou had been deliberately guiding him and did not seem like he would give up so easily.


    ¡°If you have no desires, you are strong!¡±


    Facing those temptations, he muttered these words.


    As long as he could maintain his initial thoughts, he did not believe that anyone would be able to do anything to him.


    Zhou Feng had already noticed the gold essence chain on Wu Zhou¡¯s neck.


    However, he did not think about it. He wholeheartedly used his physical body to carve a path back to the surface.


    To be honest, Wu Zhou did not have many ways to deal with Zhou Feng, who had no desires.


    In the beginning, Wu Zhou gave countless hints and used a few clones as bait to lure Zhou Feng to continue exploring.


    1


    However, in this situation, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t fall for it at all, so he could only use the last method.


    ¡®Soon!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s tyrannical physical body was digging crazily, and it would not be long before he returned to the surface.


    Although there were many accidents during the process, nothing could stop him.


    Rays of light shone down from above his head.


    Fresh air instantly poured into the ground.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly frowned because a sense of danger gushed out from below.


    ¡°Haha! You can¡¯t escape!¡±


    Wu Zhou¡¯s slightly deranged voice came from afar.


    A peerless killing intent condensed into a song.


    The sound of metal clashing echoed in the entire abyss.


    Wu Zhou had completely changed his appearance. The skin on its entire body had become loose and dark. Even his facial features had disappeared. He looked like a soft mud monster.


    However, his vitality was unprecedentedly dense.


    The Blood Qi that was as black as ink gushed out from its body. Zhou Feng was immediately enveloped by it. He was like a small boat in the vast ocean.


    There was the possibility of being submerged at any moment.


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    Facing the surging sea of Blood Qi, Zhou Feng did not have the slightest bit of fear because this kind of power alone was not enough to defeat him.


    But in the next second, he immediately realized that something was wrong.


    The power of Wu Zhou did not pull him back at all. Instead, it wanted to push him to the surface.


    ¡°You will definitely come back!¡±


    A wave of resentment focused on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Helping Zhou Feng quickly return to the surface was what Wu Zhou was thinking.


    This was because the territory above his head belonged to those lunatics from the Daemon League. Wu Zhou thought he was still a normal person compared to these people.


    Those people from the Daemon League had already gone crazy. They crazily extracted the Spiritual Veins and relocated them to another place.


    Many of those Spiritual Veins had already given birth to spirituality.


    The Spirit Filling Convention¡¯s goal was to vanquish the newly born spirituality and even destroy the environment of the entire Eastern Land.


    How much resentment would be generated from destroying the Spiritual Veins of the entire Eastern Land?


    Even Wu Zhou himself did not dare to think about it.


    The resentment and the foul air were basically drained to the Bottom of the Abyss. Now that the resentment was erupting, the lunatics of the Daemon League were on top of him.


    They would definitely choose to suppress it immediately. Under such circumstances, if Zhou Feng did not want to die, he would have to return as soon as possible.


    This was also why Wu Zhou had been shouting crazily.


    The violent Demonic Qi and Yin Qi rushed to the surface like a volcano eruption.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng sensed the existence of a super formation.


    This super formation contained traces of the laws of the great Dao. Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult for Zhou Feng to break through this formation.


    However, a hole was opened in this formation in a short period with Wu Zhou¡¯s help.


    Moreover, it was because this formation had just been set up not long ago that it was so easy to break through it.


    Another thing that Zhou Feng did not know was that above his head was the location of the next Spirit Filling Convention.


    The newly extracted Spiritual Vein would be buried in this place, and a new piece of land would be created.


    Although this place had not been incorporated into the easternmost region, it was only a matter of time.


    This was within Wu Zhou¡¯s calculations.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t you say that you would be strong if you had no desires? Didn¡¯t you say that external things would not move you?¡¯


    It just so happened that Wu Zhou used this point to send Zhou Feng to the surface forcefully.


    ¡°Why do you think so many people at the Bottom of the Abyss didn¡¯t return to the surface?¡±


    Wu Zhou¡¯s face revealed a trace of pride.


    The reason was that the easternmost region was above their heads.


    Even if they dug a tunnel, they would have to face a super formation suppressing them above their heads.


    They would also have to face the Daemon League, which had a large number of Ascendants.


    ¡°So, I was still plotted against?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face didn¡¯t change at all. He rushed out of the abyss, and the dazzling sunlight fell on his face.


    Then, he clearly saw the situation on the surface.


    A desolate, deathly aura permeated the land.


    There were also wet, withered water plants and dead bodies scattered around.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    Apart from that, Zhou Feng also saw a cross-section of the sea.


    You didn¡¯t misread! It was the cross-section of the sea!


    He was actually at the bottom of the sea, which had been drained of water.


    It was a super deep pit.


    Behind him was the sea, and a majestic force had locked the huge seawater.


    This situation was like a bowl, half of it was empty, and the other half was filled with water.


    ¡°Who is it!?¡±


    Before Zhou Feng could react, a suppressive force brought with it the power of heaven and earth.


    A shadow seemed to be the only thing in this world. It sat in the air like a god that could split heaven and earth apart, mobilizing the power of heaven and earth.


    Zhou Feng immediately made a decision.


    His Invincible Avatar appeared behind him, and his reconstructed physical body exploded with all its strength.


    Before the formation closed, he rushed back to the Bottom of the Abyss.


    ¡°Haha! I told you! You will definitely come back!¡±


    When Wu Zhou saw this, he immediately laughed out loud, and the pride on his face became even more obvious.


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s actions had somewhat exceeded his expectations, he still couldn¡¯t escape from his calculations.


    Simply put, as long as Zhou Feng appeared at the Bottom of the Abyss, no matter what he did, he wouldn¡¯t be able to escape from his grasp.


    That was unless Zhou Feng relied on his own strength to defeat him.


    But was this possible?


    As long as he had the demon eye, Wu Zhou would be an invincible existence at the Bottom of the Abyss. He could borrow the endless resentment of the earth, and even if he exhausted himself, he would be able to exhaust Zhou Feng to death.


    ¡°Yes! I¡¯m back!¡±


    Zhou Feng was forced to return to the Bottom of the Abyss, and the passage above his head began to fuse continuously.


    Under such circumstances, he changed his mind.


    Traces of golden Blood Qi began to erupt.


    This golden Blood Qi was different from the Blood Qi when he cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    That faint golden thread carried a hint of immortality.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    For some reason, a trace of unease rose in Wu Zhou¡¯s heart.

 Chapter 580 - Numerous Eyeballs

    Initially, Zhou Feng did not want to deal with unnecessary trouble.


    This was nothing more than the word ¡°cost-effective.¡± Although there was a high probability that there were many good things here at the Bottom of the Abyss, there might also be a lot of trouble.


    He had the skill panel, so he did not need to take risks. He only needed to rely on his passive skills to improve steadily.


    This was also why he ignored Wu Zhou.


    But now, it seemed that he had been thinking too simply.


    If he wanted to leave the Bottom of the Abyss, he still needed some preparations to reach the surface.


    And Wu Zhou seemed to know a lot of things. He might even know some of the deeds of the Daemon League.


    Thus, Zhou Feng changed his mind.


    With the help of the AI, his physical body entered Overload.


    All the power in his body was squeezed out. His Blood Qi, spiritual power, and a trace of the law of the great Dao he had comprehended were all merged into one kind of power.


    ¡°Die!¡± roared Zhou Feng and punched down.


    The vast and mighty power penetrated the entire passage from top to bottom.


    ¡°Bring it!¡±


    Wu Zhou, whose skin was constantly sagging, was not afraid at all in the face of this scene. Instead, he directly clashed with Zhou Feng.


    The two forces exploded at this moment, and the huge pressure formed once again rushed to the surface.


    ¡­


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? It¡¯s happening again?¡±


    ¡°What happened underground?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! But the Spirit Filling Convention will start soon, so we absolutely can¡¯t have any accidents now.¡±


    ¡°You must know that the League Leader hasn¡¯t been in a good mood recently because of the loss of the Spiritual Vein!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The members of the Daemon League guarding the place saw that the defensive formation had sounded the alarm again.


    They didn¡¯t know what was happening underground, so they could only strengthen the formation¡¯s suppressive power.


    As for what was happening underground? It was simply impossible to find out.


    So much resentment had been poured into the underground, and God knew how many demons had been born.


    For them, the best way to deal with it was naturally to suppress it constantly.


    Anyway, the Spirit Filling Convention had already lasted so long, and it would soon be time for the next step.


    The easternmost region would be separated from the Eastern Land.


    At that time, the entire Daemon League would form a secret realm that was isolated from the world.


    It was said that the new leader was planning to take everyone and ascend.


    Therefore, it was better to leave the trouble underground to others!


    Because of this, these people did not have the intention to explore the Bottom of the Abyss.


    Back at the Bottom of the Abyss¡­


    The battle between Zhou Feng and Wu Zhou came to an end¡ªWu Zhou was directly crushed.


    Zhou Feng was expressionless. All the types of power in his body had fused. Moreover, the more he fought, the more terrifying his aura became.


    Although he didn¡¯t use any divine abilities, just simple punches and kicks, each punch and kick contained a trace of law.


    The great Dao of Longevity! It was the pursuit of immortality!


    After reaching the Dao Essence realm, he began to have some enlightenment. He could even imbue the essence of the great Dao of Longevity in his attacks.


    Wu Zhou was struck dumb.


    ¡°What kind of monster is this!?¡±


    Wu Zhou felt a little powerless.


    He could not imagine how this person with facial paralysis could be so strong.


    This kind of strength was not the crushing of realms but the dominance displayed in actual combat.


    In terms of realms, Wu Zhou was stronger than Zhou Feng.


    Yet, Zhou Feng swept the floor with Wu Zhou in actual combat.


    ¡®Why is my body bleeding when he hits me?


    ¡®Why are his attacks able to ignore my divine skin?


    ¡®Why is his recovery ability so abnormal!?¡¯


    At this moment, Wu Zhou¡¯s mind was filled with 100,000 whys.


    He could not figure out the various strange things that occurred during the battle.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s various passive skills could be triggered with every attack.


    ¡®Impossible! I can not lose! I have the shed of Heavenly Venerate Longevity!¡¯


    At this moment, Wu Zhou seemed to have gone mad.


    Countless small holes appeared on his loose body, and many lifeless eyes emerged from them.


    Can you imagine it?


    A person¡¯s body was covered with all kinds of eyeballs, almost engulfing all of his skin.1


    That scene would simply cause someone with ommetaphobia1to die instantly.


    Strange! Ominous!


    As these eyeballs slowly opened, a strange aura began to spread.


    Traces of cold sweat appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s back.


    These eyeballs started to turn left and right as if they were madly sizing up their surroundings.


    ¡®The shed of Heavenly Venerate Longevity?¡¯


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t say much, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.


    In the next second, Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi started to burn, dispelling the ominous and strange aura.


    ¡®He¡¯s still getting stronger!?¡¯


    Upon sensing that Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was still increasing, Wu Zhou¡¯s heart couldn¡¯t help but feel a little scared.


    This was really too monstrous!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had been increasing every second from the start of the battle.


    This simply did not make sense. How could a cultivator who had not reached the Ascendance realm possess this kind of strength!?


    Moreover, Zhou Feng had not used any divine ability yet!


    This was really too strange!


    ¡®I hope it works!¡¯


    Wu Zhou could not help but feel a little unconfident at this moment. If the backup plan he had prepared was ineffective, it would spell his end.


    Before he could continue contemplating, his physical body was crushed and burned by the Blood Qi.


    However, during this process, Wu Zhou¡¯s soul was not destroyed. Instead, it was taken away by a mysterious force.


    ¡®As expected, the soul disappeared!¡¯ Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed.


    Ever since landing at the Bottom of the Abyss, he had discovered that a mysterious force would pull all the souls.


    Moreover, this mysterious force protected these souls and prevented them from being damaged.


    Now, as long as he found the source of this mysterious force, he should be able to know many secrets.


    Zhou Feng ran in a certain direction without any hesitation. His eyes were as brilliant as the stars, and the aura he exuded had a suppressive effect.


    In the depths of the abyss¡­.


    A large eyeball suddenly broke free.


    The moment it broke free, the cold wind roared, and many sleeping demons woke up.


    Beside them were lumps of flesh and blood. These lumps of flesh and blood were jumping with vitality.


    Every few seconds, these lumps of flesh and blood would transform into human form and be injected into Wu Zhou¡¯s soul.


    The scene was bizarre and horrifying.


    However, that horrifying scene was broken in the next second.


    Zhou Feng found this place swiftly and destroyed everything in his way.


    ¡°So, this thing is causing trouble?¡±


    Looking at the big eyeball in front of him, he felt a hint of danger.

 Chapter 581 - Gone Just Like That?

    Sorry for the lack of updates, Covid got me¡­


    1


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng looked at the scene in front of him, and his body couldn¡¯t help but itch.


    An eye slowly appeared on the back of his hand.


    Zhou Feng felt stinging pain and soreness!


    Moreover, this stinging pain and soreness continued to increase with the passage of time.


    ¡°Hehe! You finally took the bait!¡±


    Wu Zhou¡¯s voice slowly sounded.


    However, Wu Zhou¡¯s voice was much lower now, giving off a lifeless feeling.


    At the same time, countless eyes looked at Zhou Feng from different directions.


    Zhou Feng instantly became the center of attention.


    ¡°This eye!¡±


    He frowned slightly, his Blood Qi slightly fluctuated, and the abnormality on his body immediately disappeared.


    What surprised Zhou Feng was that this eye in front of him resonated with his Longevity bloodline.


    ¡®Could it be that what this person said earlier is true?


    ¡®Is this from the remains of Heavenly Venerate Longevity?


    ¡®But why did the remains of Heavenly Venerate Longevity become like this?¡¯


    The Blood Qi on Zhou Feng¡¯s body turned into flames and began to burn all the flesh and blood in the vicinity.


    The flames of the Blood Qi burned the flesh and blood, causing crackling sounds.


    The large eye stared at Zhou Feng.


    ¡°You can¡¯t win against me! Although your bloodline is your greatest reliance, it is also your greatest weakness at this moment!¡±


    Wu Zhou¡¯s voice still rang out slowly.


    Why had he expended so much effort to lure Zhou Feng here?


    The reason was very simple. As long as Zhou Feng came here, Wu Zhou would have absolute confidence in winning.


    In order to achieve this goal, Wu Zhou even sacrificed many clones.


    Those clones did not have the core memories, so any reaction was realistic. This included fear, surprise, and so on. Even people with strong intuition were easily affected.


    After all, there were many cultivators with strong intuition in the cultivation world.


    Perhaps these cultivators did not see any problems, but they could rely on their intuition to avoid danger.


    The higher the cultivation level, the more powerful the bonus of intuition was.


    Some great cultivators did not even need to think and could identify the good and bad luck behind it in just a second.


    Because of this, Wu Zhou chose to waste so many clones.


    These clones were not ordinary clones. Each of them had a trace of the soul.


    Once destroyed, it would cause permanent damage to the soul.


    Such a huge price was not wasted in the end.


    Zhou Feng was finally lured here.


    ¡®The Longevity bloodline¡­ As expected, Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance is not easy to obtain!¡¯


    Zhou Feng suppressed his Longevity bloodline as he began to think.


    Obviously, this was the karma required to obtain Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance must carry a huge amount of karma.


    In other words, any inheritance would carry a trace of karma, just like when he cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture.


    He had also encountered many troubles.


    Fortunately, Zhou Feng¡¯s Longevity bloodline was condensed in a different way.


    It wasn¡¯t completely condensed according to Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    Not long ago, he had obtained a large amount of information in Ash City and improved the method of condensing the Longevity bloodline.


    Therefore, the big eye in front of him didn¡¯t suppress Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Wu Zhou looked at Zhou Feng, and a trace of uneasiness rose in his heart as he seemed to be fine.


    How could it be?


    ¡°Why is he fine?¡±


    Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng, the successor of Heavenly Venerate Longevity, wouldn¡¯t have much resistance against Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s shed.


    But why did it seem like there was no problem at all?


    Just as Wu Zhou was in disbelief, Zhou Feng took the initiative to attack. His Blood Qi erupted.


    After a period of time of adaptation, the special aura emitted by the large eye in front of him could no longer suppress him.


    After all, his Longevity bloodline was created by himself. It was only based on the inheritance of Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    ¡°Crimsonfiend Lotus!¡±


    This time, he summoned the Crimsonfiend Lotus from his Soul Altar.


    The blood-red lotus lifted Zhou Feng up, and its petals on the outside began to emit a different light.


    Ever since Zhou Feng transformed the green lotus into the Crimsonfiend Lotus, he treated the Crimsonfiend Lotus as a filthy collector.


    Because as his strength increased and the Longevity bloodline condensed, Zhou Feng¡¯s body could be said to be comparable to a dao artifact.


    In addition to all kinds of passive skills, this caused his survivability to be super strengthened.


    Thus, the Crimsonfiend Lotus¡¯ defensive ability had become useless.


    After all, the defensive ability of the physical body might be even stronger than the Crimsonfiend Lotus.


    Therefore, the Crimsonfiend Lotus began to become Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body¡¯s filthy carrying device.


    The physical body¡¯s impurities, the soul¡¯s distracting thoughts, and so on were all poured into the Crimsonfiend Lotus.


    In fact, ever since the Longevity bloodline was condensed, there were not many impurities in Zhou Feng¡¯s body. The impurities were only relatively normal.


    In his eyes, they might be impurities, but in the eyes of others, they were great supplements.


    Moreover, these impurities also carried a lot of information. It was not a good habit to discard them casually.


    That was why Zhou Feng would put all kinds of filth on the Crimsonfiend Lotus.


    He did not expect that this would actually cause the Crimsonfiend Lotus to mutate.


    Although he did not know what would happen after the mutation, the Crimsonfiend Lotus had the ability to devour and reverse feed.


    ¡°Devour!¡±


    Zhou Feng sat cross-legged on the Crimsonfiend Lotus and used his soul to control it.


    A huge suction force devoured everything within.


    The flesh and blood of the surrounding human figures were all devoured. Even the Yin Qi and all kinds of filth were not spared.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Wu Zhou immediately realized that something was wrong and began to roar angrily.


    A ball of filth blood flew toward Zhou Feng.


    However, this ball of black blood with blood threads couldn¡¯t do anything to the Crimsonfiend Lotus.


    Instead, under the enhancement of this ball of filth blood, the Crimsonfiend Lotus slowly raised a ball of sinful fire.


    All the filth in the surroundings was devoured and burned.


    ¡°This, this, this¡­¡±


    Such a situation was completely beyond Wu Zhou¡¯s expectations.


    How did things suddenly turn out like this?


    He had spent so much effort to lure Zhou Feng here. Shouldn¡¯t Zhou Feng be at his mercy?


    How did things turn around?


    Because of the symbiotic relationship with Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s shed, Wu Zhou never thought he would fail.


    One had to know that this was Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s shed. Even if it was just a contaminated eye, what kind of person was Heavenly Venerate Longevity? He was a ruthless person that spanned more than ten eras.


    Just a single eye was enough to kill Zhou Feng casually.


    But from the beginning, things had exceeded his expectations.


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    Wu Zhou began to resist, but like the previous times, he was met with despair every time he resisted.


    Zhou Feng still crushed him. And it was the kind that was effortless.


    At that moment, Wu Zhou felt that he was a clown. If the previous schemes were not a joke, then what was?


    Zhou Feng did not expect that it would be so easy either.


    His Crimsonfiend Lotus seemed to be born to restrain these filthy things.


    The big eyeball in front of him could not resist at all.

 Chapter 582 - Soul

    ¡°This is it?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not expect the mastermind at the Bottom of the Abyss would be dealt with so easily.


    2


    This large eyeball did not show much resistance.


    Facing the Crimsonfiend Lotus¡¯ power, the large eyeball could only continuously give birth to all kinds of flesh demons or launch soul attacks.


    Unfortunately, this did not cause much damage to Zhou Feng.


    Wu Zhou screamed, shouted, and begged for mercy.


    Zhou Feng crushed him in the end.


    When all the filthy flesh and blood were removed, a withered little tree appeared in his eyes.


    This was a very ordinary-looking little tree, only about one meter tall. Dense roots were under his feet, and many fruits hung on the branches above his head.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    That huge eyeball had also become the nourishment of this small tree.


    Zhou Feng could feel pure soul power from the fruits.


    At the same time, a large amount of resentment was entangled on top.


    ¡°What tree Is this?¡±


    Zhou Feng observed the small tree.


    ¡®To think that such a small tree is growing in this filthy place¡­


    ¡®In other words, all the souls from before are here?¡¯


    Zhou Feng looked at this half-dead small tree.


    The souls of the people he had killed before were all bound here by this small tree.


    The pure soul power was accompanied by boiling resentment.


    The filth under the roots brought pure vitality.


    Therefore, this small tree was the biggest treasure in the Bottom of the Abyss.


    And if he guessed correctly, this big eye was the reason for the demon tide.


    Now that the big eye had disappeared, the demon tide should never appear again.


    This was good! An Lian wouldn¡¯t have to worry about her safety anymore.


    Maybe after a while, the Bottom of the Abyss would become a paradise for cultivators.


    ¡°But this small tree seems to be dying¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the small dying tree and then looked at the filthy flesh and blood that had been cleared away.


    ¡®In other words, this small tree grows by absorbing the filthy flesh and blood?


    ¡®It¡¯s actually like this¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and plucked all the fruits. Then, he uprooted the small tree.


    In any case, he was going to leave this place, and it was basically impossible for him to return after that.


    Naturally, this small tree would not stay here. It was considered his spoils of war.


    Although doing so might be a wasteful, Zhou Feng did not care.


    The best thing was to obtain the benefits. He could not leave this small tree here and harvest it in the future.


    If some knowledgeable people witnessed this scene, they would definitely throw their heads back and beat their chests.


    This was an extremely rare Soul-Nurturing Tree.


    Such a spirit tree was rare even in the Central Plains. This was because the fruits produced by the Soul-Nurturing Tree could directly strengthen the soul and allow the soul to enter a special state that assisted in comprehending the laws of the great Dao.


    The conditions for the Soul-Nurturing Tree to grow were also very harsh. It needed to grow on the dirtiest flesh and blood and to be in a completely dark place without the slightest hint of light.


    The Soul-Nurturing Tree just now was about to pass its infancy.


    It only needed a few more years to reach its maturity. At that time, one would be able to pick fruits once every 50 years.


    This was equivalent to a stable gold mine. Yet, Zhou Feng ruined it.


    ¡°So there is no additional information?¡±


    Then, Zhou Feng searched for a while and found that there was nothing else in the surroundings.


    This was great!


    Zhou Feng did not know how to leave the Bottom of the Abyss and return to the surface.


    However, although he was now embarrassed, he had a brand new understanding of his strength.


    Wu Zhou and that big eyeball were nothing more than a blow to him.


    He didn¡¯t waste too much energy.


    After his Longevity bloodline was reconstructed, he didn¡¯t even need to use any divine abilities.


    He could crush Wu Zhou just by relying on pure raw strength.


    Not to mention all kinds of passive buffs.


    ¡°That formation¡­ If I optimize the Starseizer Steps¡­¡±


    After thinking about it, Zhou Feng felt that he could return to the surface with the method he had used before.


    Now that he thought about it, the suppressive formation wasn¡¯t very powerful.


    With his physical body and the Starseizer Steps, there was a high chance that Zhou Feng could escape from that super formation.


    After all, the Starseizer Steps had the attribute of breaking through formations. Ordinary formations couldn¡¯t restrict the Starseizer Steps at all.


    ¡®However, the Starseizer Steps must be modified into a divine ability that belongs solely to me.¡¯


    Zhou Feng fell into deep thought once again.


    The original Starseizer Steps were guided by starlight. The reason one was able to break away from many restrictions and formations was that the attraction of starlight far exceeded those restrictions.


    To put it more accurately, every time one used the Starseizer Steps, it was equivalent to being forcefully dragged by a star.


    According to this train of thought, he could completely continue this idea and turn the starlight into something else.


    ¡°Longevity substances!


    ¡°This world is filled with longevity substances! So if I can use longevity substances as a guide¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng quickly thought of the longevity substances.


    Compared to starlight, longevity substances existed in every corner.


    At the same time, he could sense these ubiquitous longevity substances because he had the Longevity bloodline.


    Thus, he had an idea!


    Zhou Feng immediately got the AI to start deducing. The divine abilities and techniques he had gathered earlier were effective during this process.


    With the support of a large amount of data, he quickly improved the Starseizer Steps.


    Moreover, the speed of improvement was very smooth. This was because the AI was able to eliminate 90% of the errors through a large number of calculations.


    Zhou Feng could test the remaining errors with his body. He was the best guinea pig as he could rely on his terrifying physical body and recovery ability.


    Other cultivators had to be careful when deducing new abilities. They had to maintain full concentration at all times.


    This was because if there were any mistake, they would face the backlash of the laws. If it were light, one would be severely injured, and if it was heavy, one¡¯s soul might be extinguished.


    Zhou Feng was not afraid at all.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    The AI had just created a prototype, and he dared to experiment directly.


    The result was naturally not a success. Zhou Feng moved, and his entire body was instantly torn apart.


    Even a portion of his body¡¯s vitality and longevity substances was consumed.


    In the end, he did not even move a meter.


    However, the AI had gathered the wrong information and once again eliminated countless wrong answers.


    Blood Recovery! Tenacious Heart!


    These two passives were triggered instantly, and the seemingly serious injuries recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.


    ¡°Again!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s spirit jolted. After his physical body recovered, he immediately began a new test.


    Countless wrong answers were eliminated again!


    Moreover, during this process, he sensed a trace of the laws regarding the Dao of Longevity.


    This was about the use of biomass!

 Chapter 583 - Longevity Steps!

    Zhou Feng relied on his almost invincible body to carry out a series of crazy experiments.


    This state of crazily squeezing his body made his first self-created divine ability particularly smooth.


    And after wasting a large amount of longevity substances, Zhou Feng¡¯s first self-created divine ability was finally successful.


    As mentioned before, longevity substances could not only prolong life and repair the body but also allow people to enter a special state of enlightenment.


    In this state, one¡¯s comprehension of the laws of the great Dao would become very sensitive.


    He did not use it before because it consumed too many longevity substances.


    Before this, he still needed a large amount of longevity substances to condense the Longevity bloodline.


    Now that the Longevity bloodline had been condensed, he could also choose to burn the longevity substances to aid in his enlightenment.


    ¡°Success!¡±


    Zhou Feng successfully verified it through the AI.


    This divine ability was the result of the fusion of the Starseizer Steps and the great Dao of Longevity.


    He could forcefully move his body if he consumed longevity substances. Basically, he would not be affected by anything.


    Because of the special nature of the longevity substances, almost nothing could stop them.


    This divine ability was much stronger than the Starseizer Step.


    Zhou Feng frowned as his body slightly blurred, and in the blink of an eye, he was ten meters away.


    It looked as if he had teleported, but at the same time, countless wounds appeared on his body.


    These wounds were densely packed, and all of them were the size of sand.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng felt that a trace of his vitality had been lost.


    ¡°This¡­ It actually consumes vitality?¡±


    In addition to causing great damage to the physical body, this divine ability would also consume the user¡¯s vitality.


    In most people¡¯s eyes, this divine ability was simply junk among the trash.


    One had to know that vitality represented lifespan to a certain extent, and the loss of vitality meant the aging of the physical body.


    Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to taking a few steps to deduct a few months of lifespan?


    After all, replenishing vitality without any side effects was difficult, even for a great cultivator.


    Not to mention the thousands of holes on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    At first glance, this divine ability seemed very useless.


    But Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care at all because these kinds of side effects were equivalent to nothing to him.


    With the Longevity bloodline and Fate Wheel, he was already able to create longevity substances and lock up vitality on his own.


    He had always wanted to condense a complete Longevity bloodline because he could slowly convert the longevity substances.


    He would no longer need to absorb and plunder from the outside world.


    Only with the Longevity bloodline would he be qualified to spy on the Dao of Longevity.


    Then there was the Fate Wheel, which could stabilize the vitality. The lost vitality could be replenished through the Fate Wheel.


    If it were another cultivator without a Fate Wheel, it would be very difficult to replenish the lost vitality.


    But for Zhou Feng, this was only a very simple matter. He only needed to kill a few enemies, and the lost vitality could be replenished.


    ¡°How about calling it the Longevity Steps!¡±


    Longevity steps! This was a technique that belonged exclusively to Zhou Feng.


    If an ordinary cultivator dared to use it, one step would cost them several months of their life.


    If they took a few more steps, they would probably die of old age.


    Moreover, this was because Zhou Feng¡¯s current cultivation was not high enough. If he could comprehend the great Daos of Space and Time in the future, he would be able to improve the Longevity steps.


    One step would result in a decrease in lifespan. Only immortals could use it.


    The Longevity Steps¡¯ success also opened up many ideas for Zhou Feng.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Isn¡¯t my advantage here?¡±


    He suddenly woke up. Compared to other cultivators, Zhou Feng¡¯s advantage was very obvious.


    He had a durable body, and all kinds of passive skills were added to it. Basically, any injury could be quickly recovered.


    And then there was the longevity advantage!


    Couldn¡¯t he create some divine abilities that had obvious side effects in the eyes of other cultivators?


    These side effects would be equivalent to nothing to Zhou Feng.


    With such conditions, there weren¡¯t so many restrictions when he created divine abilities. Weren¡¯t they just side effects?


    As long as they didn¡¯t really hurt him, it was equivalent to having no side effects.


    Wasn¡¯t it just tens of thousands of small wounds on his body every time he took a step?


    This wasn¡¯t a problem at all!


    With this thought in mind, the difficulty of creating divine abilities in the future was instantly reduced.


    After all, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to pursue perfection, nor did he need to pursue his own divine abilities to be passed down.


    Perhaps for a large force like the Daemon League, every divine ability that was included would need to go through tens of thousands of tests.


    Once an accident occurred, it was very likely that a genius disciple would be lost.


    Zhou Feng did not have such concerns. After all, he was alone, so he did not need to worry too much.


    As long as he did not die, there would not be any problems.


    ¡°Perfect!¡±


    Thinking of this, he could not help but admire himself from the bottom of his heart.


    If the Longevity Steps weren¡¯t a success, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t want to stay in this depressing place a minute longer, even though there should still be a lot of things to plunder at the Bottom of the Abyss.


    After all, there were quite a few people who survived here back then, and they had even invented something like clothes made of human faces.


    However, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. He wanted to breathe some fresh air.


    Then, he wanted to know what the Daemon League was doing and whether it was possible to sabotage the Daemon League¡¯s plan.


    Zhou Feng could still vividly remember the scene of emptying the seawater.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng set off again.


    Relying on his invincible body, he opened up another passage.


    A suppressive force began to spread above his head.


    However, he did not hesitate and started to control his Fate Wheel, consuming a large amount of vitality and longevity substances.


    His physical body was slightly weakened.


    What happened next left everyone dumbstruck. He directly passed through the super formation and reached the surface.


    ¡°Remember! The Spirit Filling Convention is about to begin! We can not let our guard down in the coming days!¡±


    ¡°Those demons will very likely take this opportunity to come and cause trouble!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Senior Brother! With the God-Slaying Formation, those demons and the b*stards at the bottom of the sea won¡¯t be able to break through the formation.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Especially those b*stards at the bottom of the sea. I¡¯ll definitely teach them a lesson if they dare to come here!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Compared to the desolate place that Zhou Feng came to last time, this area now had many more cultivators.


    And these cultivators were all above the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    Each of them was emitting the light of various dao treasures.


    Some of them even boasted that no one could break through the God-Slaying Formation.


    To be honest, these people were right. Under normal circumstances, breaking through the God-Slaying Formation was impossible.


    This was an ancient formation from the Central Plains. It was used by the Human Emperors to deal with the creatures and gods they raised.


    It possessed a powerful suppressive power. If one wanted to break through this formation, they would have to force their way in.


    However, as soon as these people finished speaking, Zhou Feng¡¯s figure slowly appeared.

 Chapter 584 - Shock

    Zhou Feng¡¯s figure slowly emerged. His body was riddled with numerous wounds, but they healed at breakneck speed. If it weren¡¯t for these wounds being too obvious, everyone would have thought this was an illusion.


    ¡°You¡­ This¡­ I¡­¡±


    ¡°This person!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    As soon as they finished speaking, Zhou Feng¡¯s figure suddenly appeared.


    Wasn¡¯t this a merciless slap to their faces?


    To be honest, Zhou Feng¡¯s way of appearing at this moment was too strange. It could even be said that it was unexpected.


    The God-Slaying Formation was a super formation that sealed heaven and earth. The suppressive force that spread out could seal off this area, making it impossible for others to break through it.


    Yet, they could only watch helplessly at that moment as Zhou Feng used some unknown method to appear here.


    ¡°Hello~¡±


    Zhou Feng even had the mood to greet them at this moment.


    He used the Longevity Steps again in the next second, and his body slowly faded. He stopped here for less than a second.


    Zhou Feng did not want to be stopped by others. This formation was still suppressing him.


    If these people reacted, it would be quite troublesome. Therefore, he chose to leave immediately.


    He left in the direction of the boundless sea.


    This place was originally part of the sea, but the Daemon League had used a great technique to move the seawater away.


    Then, they used the formation to cut out a large piece of land.


    Of course, he wouldn¡¯t choose to leave in the direction of the easternmost region.


    ¡°T-That person just now?¡±


    ¡°Wait! That person seems a little familiar?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s that monster!? His name seems to be Zhou Feng!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s that butcher? That pervert that¡¯s impervious to all kinds of curses!?¡±


    Although Zhou Feng had only stayed for less than a second, he was too famous within the Daemon League. Thus, many people recognized him.


    After all, Zhou Feng had barged into the easternmost region alone and then self-destructed to leave.


    After that, when he appeared again, he slaughtered most of the Daemon League¡¯s geniuses while transporting the Spiritual Vein. He had even killed an Ascendant.


    Just from his battle record alone, he was comparable to a monster from the Central Plains.


    Not to mention that the Daemon League had collected Zhou Feng¡¯s blood and used a large number of curses to kill him. Alas, it was completely useless.


    Because of these deeds, Zhou Feng¡¯s notorious reputation spread throughout the entire Daemon League.


    At first, everyone thought that Zhou Feng would choose to stay far away from the easternmost region.


    Zhou Feng might be a monster, but in the end, he was still a small cultivator who had just broken through to the Enlightenment realm.


    He was still a lot weaker than those bigshots of the Daemon League who had reached the Ascendance realm.


    If he still dared to wander around the easternmost region, the bigshots of the Daemon League would definitely let Zhou Feng see why the flowers were so red.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance here was completely unexpected.


    ¡°He¡­ How did he get here? And he even ignored the God-Slaying Formation? What kind of divine ability is this!?¡±


    ¡°This is troublesome! This is really troublesome!¡±


    ¡°Hurry up and report it!¡±


    Everyone present only knew that the situation was serious.


    Zhou Feng had somehow passed through the easternmost region and headed to the Eastern Sea. Moreover, he seemed to have mastered some kind of divine ability that could even ignore the God-Slaying Formation.


    This meant that Zhou Feng could ignore the super formation of the easternmost region and freely enter and exit the easternmost region.


    Compared to Zhou Feng alone, the easternmost region¡¯s target was too big.


    If Zhou Feng played guerrilla warfare, it would still be very troublesome for the Daemon League.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how many ripples his actions would cause.


    At present, he was at the Eastern Sea. Because he had a similar experience, he didn¡¯t show any discomfort in the sea.


    Not to mention that he had the passive Underwater Breathing.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    As soon as he entered the Eastern Sea, Zhou Feng noticed something was wrong¡ªthe entire sea seemed lifeless.


    As far as he knew, the Eastern Sea was not comparable to the Southern Sea. There were many cultivators and aquatic tribes gathered here.


    There were even a few true dragons.


    There were many ancient ruins and reclusive ancient cultivators.


    Moreover, because of the closed environment of the Eastern Sea, the cultivators who lived here usually had strange personalities.


    Zhou Feng had read these things from some books. Well, the AI had scanned all those books and a lot of information, so he did not need to remember on his own initiative.


    It was obvious that the information he had collected about the Eastern Sea was not up to date.


    Something must have happened.


    Zhou Feng guessed that this was definitely related to the Daemon League.


    One had to know that the entire easternmost region had been reclaimed from the sea. This would definitely occupy a lot of the area of the Eastern Sea.


    The various forces in the Eastern Sea would definitely not give in. They must have had conflicts with the Daemon League.


    ¡°There are countless small islands in the Eastern Sea! They are scattered everywhere!¡±


    Originally, he would head to the easternmost region after coming out of the abyss.


    After all, the easternmost region had gathered all the resources and inheritances of the Eastern Land.


    If one wanted to improve quickly, the best place would be the easternmost region.


    However, because of the existence of the Daemon League in the easternmost region, the last time they moved the Spiritual Vein, the Daemon League had sent out more than ten Ascendants.


    They would be in grave danger if one entered the easternmost region rashly.


    Therefore, he temporarily changed his target. He wanted to create a divine ability and also deal with the Spiritual Vein.


    Zhou Feng did not forget that he had the spirit of the Spiritual Vein.


    Previously, the spirit of the Spiritual Vein had almost merged into the Crimsonfiend Lotus.


    Fortunately, he had discovered it in advance and removed the spirit of the Spiritual Vein.


    This was a good thing. If he found the right materials, he might be able to forge connate numinous treasure. The characteristic of gathering Spiritual Qi all the time was really tempting.


    ¡°Moreover, there are countless mineral deposits in the Eastern Sea itself! It just so happens that I can upgrade the passive Immortal Golden Bones!¡±


    It did not take long for him to plan what he should do next.


    His current cultivation realm had fallen into a stagnant state. Breaking through to the Dao Comprehension realm was difficult, but this did not mean that he had nothing to do.


    On the contrary, Zhou Feng still had a lot of things to do, which could directly increase his strength.


    After increasing his strength again, he could try to enter the easternmost region.


    After that, he would probably head to the Central Plains.


    Zhou Feng made a new plan, and his entire person relaxed a little. It was mainly because there was still a lot of time, so there was no need to rush.


    ¡°So now it¡¯s better to investigate what happened here.¡±


    He looked relaxed and began to wander around the area.


    However, Zhou Feng was relaxed, but the Daemon League was extremely nervous.

 Chapter 585 - Ge Li

    What Zhou Feng did not know was that the entire easternmost region was starting to become jittery.


    The reason was that an accident had happened at the location where the Spirit Filling Convention would be held as it should have been under strict control. Basically, it was impossible for anyone to enter.


    Only when the Spirit Filling Convention started would it gradually open up.


    But now, there was someone who could bypass the God-Slaying Formation as if it was nothing.


    Not to mention that this person was No. 1 on the wanted list.


    This caused the entire Daemon League¡¯s higher-ups to be furious.


    They had to investigate this matter thoroughly!


    This was related to the foundation of the easternmost region.


    With the completion of the last Spirit Filling Convention, the foundation of the easternmost region would also be completed.


    When all the Spiritual Veins were connected, they would be able to attempt to cut off the karma between heaven and earth and be separated from the world.


    At the same time, the Daemon League had even greater plans for the higher-ups at the top.


    Because of this, they didn¡¯t allow any accidents to happen.


    ¡°Let¡¯s directly observe the karma lines!¡±


    In the end, the Daemon League had no choice but to push aside countless karma lines. They wanted to use the karma lines to find traces of Zhou Feng and kill him in one strike.


    ¡­


    ¡°As expected! They were all taken away!¡±


    After a short period of observation, Zhou Feng had some guesses.


    The nearby sea¡¯s ecosystem seemed to have been wiped out. Not only were there no small fish or shrimp, but not even the plankton was spared.


    Only the sea area far away from the easternmost region gradually returned to normal.


    This was an extremely abnormal situation. It was as if all the creatures were unwilling to get close to the easternmost region.


    He himself also felt a trace of oppression.


    Only when he was far away from the easternmost region did the sense of oppression slowly disappear.


    Because he was far away from the easternmost region, Zhou Feng also slowly relaxed.


    His entire body floated on the surface of the sea. He looked very relaxed, and the slightly dazzling sunlight shone on his face.


    ¡°Then the next step is to modify the Great Void Primordial Art.¡±


    Although he looked very relaxed, he did not really relax.


    Instead, he began to think about how to modify the Great Void Primordial Art into his original divine ability.


    After creating the Longevity Steps, Zhou Feng felt that all the divine abilities he had learned before could be modified one by one.


    This was especially true for the Great Void Primordial Art. This divine ability could be considered the first divine ability he had mastered.


    Furthermore, there were many twists and turns in the process, and his comprehension was also the deepest.


    Compared to other divine abilities, Zhou Feng was also the most confident when it came to modifying them.


    ¡°Longevity substances! Other than being able to extend one¡¯s lifespan¡­¡±


    Unsurprisingly, Zhou Feng set his sights on longevity substances because they had two sides. Other than being able to lock vitality and prolong life, it should have other effects.


    If a normal longevity substance was said to have a positive effect, what about its negative effect?


    For some reason, he suddenly had the idea of reverse-engineering the longevity substances.


    After Zhou Feng had this idea in his mind, he was instantly unable to get rid of it.


    Subconsciously, he separated a trace of longevity substance from his body and then used his soul power.


    This trace of longevity substance, which was like Immortal Qi, became the ultimate poison that could pierce through the intestines and rot the stomach.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s palm began to rot, and this rot was even contagious.


    In the blink of an eye, the intact flesh and blood turned into a lump of black juice and even corroded the bones.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    He had never expected that the reverse-engineered longevity substance would become so violent.


    Moreover, the reverse engineering process was actually so simple and so fast.


    Zhou Feng did not even need to think about it. It was as if it was an instinct, and the longevity substance suddenly turned into another substance.


    ¡°How terrifying!¡±


    He immediately stopped what he was doing.


    The AI began to collect data and perform a large number of deductions.


    If everything went smoothly, he believed that it would not be long before he could create a new divine ability.


    It just so happened that after experiencing so much, he also felt a little tired.


    Zhou Feng did not want to tire himself too much. His mind needed to be relieved. Thus, he chose to relax his mind and handed the AI the task of creating a new divine ability.


    As for himself, he continued to lie on the surface of the sea, controlling a general direction and then drifted at will.


    There was still a long time in the future, so he didn¡¯t need to work so hard.


    After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s lifespan had increased to an unpredictable level after the Longevity bloodline was condensed.


    With such a long lifespan, there was no need to rush.


    And if his guess wasn¡¯t wrong, the Daemon League should be frantically looking for him.


    Resting for some period like this was also good for his mental state.


    Soon, Zhou Feng¡¯s body and mind were completely relaxed.


    His nerves, which had been tense all day, could finally relax. Following that, Zhou Feng entered an ethereal state.


    In this state, he could temporarily get rid of all his worries.


    He could drop all his defenses and truly enter a dormant state.


    Of course, in this state, Zhou Feng would become even more sensitive.


    With the AI¡¯s warning, it would wake him up as long as there was a slight movement.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng kept drifting on the surface of the sea.


    Under the AI¡¯s control, he did not encounter anything, nor did he drift to some small islands.


    On this day, the sunlight above his head was still fierce.


    Zhou Feng did not know how long he had been asleep, but he was still drifting with the current.


    ¡°It smells so good! This smell!¡±


    In the distance, a huge clam shell was slightly opened, and a woman¡¯s head popped out from it.


    The woman¡¯s skin was fair, and her eyes were lively, giving people a feeling of heavenly grace.


    Moreover, her fair skin was emitting some kind of radiance. Her nose bridge was as fine and straight as a sculpture, and she was full of confidence.


    Her beautiful and tender lips gave people an extremely hot feeling.


    The most annoying thing was that she lived in a clamshell and didn¡¯t have any clothes. All one saw was snow-white.


    Unfortunately, there were two clamshells that were neither too big nor too small that covered the important parts.


    ¡°Over there!¡±


    Ge Li felt the weak aura again and instantly identified the source of the aura. She carried the clamshell and slowly floated to where Zhou Feng was.


    ¡°It¡¯s so comfortable!¡±


    Zhou Feng stretched his body, and his whole body made cracking sounds.


    He didn¡¯t know how long he had slept. Now that he woke up, the exhaustion in his mind was completely swept away.


    He was full of energy again.


    After Zhou Feng woke up, he found that his perception of the laws of the great Dao was clearer.


    He seemed to be more compatible with the laws of the Great Dao?


    Before he could feel the changes in his body after waking up, Zhou Feng sensed someone approaching.


    ¡°Hmm? This is¡­¡±


    Then, he saw Ge Li, who had just arrived.


    1

 Chapter 586 - Give Me Your Treasure

    Zhou Feng had just opened his eyes when he saw Ge Li looking at him with a conflicted expression.


    There was a hint of desire in her conflicted expression. She gave off a very cute feeling.


    ¡°Y-You¡¯re awake?¡±


    Ge Li was shocked when she saw Zhou Feng suddenly wake up. She took the thick clamshell and dived a distance into the deep sea.


    What Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know was that the aura emitted by his body was extremely attractive to some people.


    Ever since Zhou Feng¡¯s Longevity bloodline was condensed, there has been almost no leakage of longevity substances.


    However, it didn¡¯t mean that he could completely lock up the longevity substances.


    Even Heavenly Venerate Longevity couldn¡¯t completely lock up the longevity substances.


    Therefore, in the eyes of some people with sharp senses, Zhou Feng was like Tang Sanzang.


    Moreover, people with such sharp senses would not be weak. Zhou Feng might attract countless prying eyes in the future.


    As for Ge Li, she did not have super strong senses, but she had extraordinary intuition.


    It was similar to Zhou Feng¡¯s Battle Instinct because Ge Li¡¯s had a trace of the Arcane Ink Clam bloodline.


    The Arcane Ink Clam tribe was a female-dominant tribe in ancient times. It was said that the Arcane Ink Clam tribe was just an ordinary tribe in the Eastern Sea at the beginning.


    Later on, a tribeswoman swallowed a mysterious lifeform, and her bloodline mutated. As such, she was reborn, gaining a firm foothold in the ancient times when there were tens of thousands of races.


    Of course, if that were all, it would be difficult for the Arcane Ink Clam tribe to leave behind a legend.


    After all, there were too many evil cultivators in ancient times, and there were even some spirits who turned into humans.


    The reason the Arcane Ink Clam tribe was able to survive was due to a treasure called the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    The Arcane Ink Clams were born with treasure-seeking perception. This treasure-seeking perception even touched upon a trace of the great Dao of Karma.


    It directly affected its own source of fortune. As long as there was any treasure nearby, it basically could not escape the Arcane Ink Clam¡¯s perception.


    Back then, the Arcane Ink Clam tribe relied on this treasure-seeking perception to slowly grow and finally complete its transformation.


    The Arcane Ink Pearl was a treasure condensed by the female Arcane Ink Clams with all their strength.


    It was a very common thing for female Arcane Ink Clams to give birth to three pearls in their lifetimes.


    They would give birth to pearls in their infancy, adulthood, and near-death stages.


    The functions of the Arcane Ink Pearls produced during these three periods were not the same, but one thing was clear¡ªthey were all very precious.


    This was because the Arcane Ink Pearls were not only condensed from the essence of heaven and earth, but they also carried an incomplete Dao Origin Rune.


    This was too tempting for cultivators. Any cultivator after the Dao Enlightenment realm would be envious of the incomplete Dao Origin Rune.


    ¡°Why is it so fragrant?¡±


    Ge Li, who had just dived down a distance, could not help but approach Zhou Feng when she sensed that Zhou Feng did not have any malicious intent.


    Moreover, when she got closer, she swallowed all the longevity substances that Zhou Feng leaked out.


    However, Ge Li didn¡¯t know about the existence of the longevity substance. She just felt that Zhou Feng was getting more and more fragrant, making her unable to extricate herself.


    ¡®This person definitely has a treasure on him! Moreover, it¡¯s a treasure that can help me directly give birth to a pearl!¡¯


    At that moment, Ge Li was certain in her heart.


    According to her intuition and her physical senses, Zhou Feng must have some kind of super-treasure on him.


    In ancient times, the Arcane Ink Clams could purify heaven and earth and absorb the laws of the great Dao to give birth to the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    However, Ge Li did not have such ability. If she wanted to give birth to the Arcane Ink Pearl successfully, she had to rely on numerous treasures.


    Because of the exposure of the Arcane Ink Pearl, the Arcane Ink Clams were coveted by countless cultivators, especially by some old monsters of the Central Plains.


    The Arcane Ink Clam tribe had almost gone extinct because of this.


    Now, there were no more pure Arcane Ink Clams in the Eastern Sea. Instead, they only contained a trace of the Arcane Ink Clam bloodline.


    Arcane Ink Clams with a pure bloodline were rare in the Eastern Sea.


    As for why Ge Li wanted to give birth to the Arcane Ink Pearl so much, it was because she had a special way to increase her strength.


    As long as a female Arcane Ink Clam gave birth to the first Arcane Ink Pearl, her strength would be greatly improved.


    She could even directly comprehend part of the laws of the great Dao.


    The process of giving birth to the pearl was actually the process of comprehending the laws of the great Dao.


    Also, the process of giving birth to the pearl would cause the female Arcane Ink Clam¡¯s outer shell to undergo a transformation, allowing her to protect herself better.


    In short, the Arcane Ink Pearl was a very important treasure for the Arcane Ink Clam.


    And now, Zhou Feng might have some kind of treasure that could help Ge Li to give birth to the first Arcane Ink Pearl.


    ¡°That¡­ Can you give me your treasure? I can exchange it for many things!¡±


    Ge Li bit her lip and said something that surprised Zhou Feng. At the same time, she took out all kinds of pearls.


    ¡®Treasure? Give my treasure to her?¡¯


    This sentence was a little ambiguous in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears, but when he saw Ge Li¡¯s innocent gaze, he knew that she did not insinuate anything.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng was also very curious about Ge Li. He had never encountered such a special person.


    Most importantly, Ge Li exuded a pure aura. It seemed she had not been affected by the darkness of the world. She was like a carefree deer in the woods.


    Although she was very vigilant about everything around her, she did not understand the darkness of the world.


    ¡°Where did I drift to?¡±


    Zhou Feng began to check through the information the AI had recorded.


    Although he had been in a deep sleep, the AI did not rest. Instead, it had been working non-stop.


    With a simple glance, he realized that he had been floating for a few months.


    1


    ¡°Um¡­ Do you agree?¡±


    When Ge Li felt that Zhou Feng did not have ill intentions, she became a little bolder and crawled out of the clamshell.


    What followed was a mature and hot figure with delicate and fair skin.


    Zhou Feng returned to his senses and immediately asked, ¡°What do you mean my treasure? What treasure are you talking about?¡±


    He didn¡¯t know the treasure that Ge Li was talking about.


    Although he had a lot of spoils of war, there weren¡¯t many things that could be considered treasures.


    The Crimsonfiend Lotus was a connate numinous treasure, and the spirit of the Spiritual Vein should be one as well.


    Other than that, he did not have any other treasures on him.


    Zhou Feng was very patient when facing this innocent woman.


    ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t know about that either!¡±


    Ge Li did not know how to answer because she did not know what Zhou Feng¡¯s treasure was either. Anyway, in her perception, Zhou Feng could help her give birth to the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    1


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and started to ask, wanting to get more information from Ge Li, ¡°You don¡¯t know either? Then let me ask you, do you know where we are?¡±

 Chapter 587 - Her Own Dimension

    Due to Ge Li¡¯s pure aura, Zhou Feng was very patient.


    He was not familiar with this place, and Ge Li should know a lot of information as a native.


    This should be helpful for him to improve his strength in the future.


    After a few months of deep sleep and enlightenment, Zhou Feng had a deeper understanding of the longevity substances.


    However, turning the longevity substances into a weapon would take some time.


    Zhou Feng did not want to drift around like before, but he wanted to choose a suitable place to calm his heart and slowly comprehend the Dao.


    Therefore, the information that Ge Li had had a certain value.


    Also, Ge Li had somehow made him like her.


    Perhaps it was because of her unworldly temperament?


    Based on the above two points, Zhou Feng seemed to be very patient.


    After his deep sleep, his impatience had eased.


    He didn¡¯t take revenge on the Daemon League at once. Instead, he was more relaxed.


    His actions became slower. It was probably because he knew that he had a long life, so his actions and thoughts resembled those of a tortoise.


    ¡°Is this nearby?¡±


    Ge Li heard Zhou Feng¡¯s words and did not react for a moment.


    However, because she felt the kindness in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart, she was extremely relaxed. She even leaned closer to Zhou Feng.


    That kind of aura really made her intoxicated.


    ¡°It¡¯s because you¡¯ve lived here for so long. What has left a deep impression on you?¡±


    Zhou Feng began to slowly guide Ge Li to tell him what he wanted to know.


    Ge Li was very cooperative. She was even excited that someone was willing to talk to her.


    In fact, Ge Li had been very lonely since she was young. Or rather, she had been alone since she was young. All of this stemmed from the Arcane Ink Clam bloodline.


    Because of the tragic bloodline memories, Ge Li was extremely sensitive. She would not approach anyone if there were the slightest inkling of something wrong.


    Zhou Feng did not have any other thoughts, and with the blessing of the longevity substances, Ge Li approached him carefully. If it were anyone else, Ge Li would definitely slip away immediately.


    In terms of life-saving abilities, the Arcane Ink Clam tribe was the best in the Eastern Sea.


    ¡°An island full of fog? Many people have set foot on it before¡­


    ¡°Strange plants on the seabed?


    ¡°And the ferocious true dragons!¡±


    Soon, Zhou Feng got a lot of information from Ge Li.


    However, because the information was very fragmented, and he didn¡¯t know whether it was true or not, he needed the AI to integrate it to extract the key information.


    Even so, Zhou Feng could feel the strange waves in the Eastern Sea.


    ¡°Oh right! Oh right! There¡¯s another dangerous place! Many people will gather there every once in a while!


    ¡°And these people are very cruel. Even true dragons will die there.¡±


    Ge Li suddenly remembered the thing that impressed her the most.


    A huge whirlpool would appear at a certain place every once in a while.


    At that time, countless people would gather there.


    Because of that, Ge Li had to hide in advance. If her tracks were exposed, the outcome would be very tragic.


    In addition, these people fought each other fiercely every time, so all Ge Li¡¯s memories were very deep.


    ¡°A dangerous place? And every once in a while?¡±


    Upon hearing this, Zhou Feng immediately fell into deep thought.


    This kind of place was very similar to a secret realm.


    They gathered together every once in a while and then fought fiercely.


    All the descriptions seemed to indicate that this place had treasures, good treasures.


    ¡®Go? Not go?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was somewhat interested.


    Although he still had many ways to increase his strength, he had no idea how to increase his cultivation and suddenly break through to the next sub-realm, the Dao Comprehension realm.


    There was also the emergence after enlightenment. How should he cultivate?


    Cultivation knowledge became more and more precious as one¡¯s realm increased.


    Zhou Feng could still rely on his strength to snatch the cultivation knowledge before the Dao Enlightenment realm, but the difficulty of obtaining it after that increased exponentially.


    Without the legacy of one¡¯s ancestors, intending to continue to break through was like opening up a new cultivation system.


    Given Zhou Feng¡¯s current aptitude, he still couldn¡¯t do it.


    To him, being able to create his own divine ability was already rare.


    From a mortal who didn¡¯t know anything, his aptitude was comparable to a cultivation genius. Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how many transformations he had undergone, but he was aware that just this alone wasn¡¯t enough.


    If he wanted to head to the Central Plains, that place filled with monsters, he still needed to become even more abnormal.


    ¡°Physical aptitude! Soul aptitude! Comprehension¡­ All of these need to be improved!¡±


    Improving his aptitude was the best solution. After all, high aptitude also meant high potential.


    But how could he improve his aptitude?


    Treasures! Opportunities!


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but fall into deep thought.


    Seeing him fall into deep thought, Ge Li had some doubts on her face. She didn¡¯t know what Zhou Feng was thinking.


    However, Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t paying attention to her.


    Therefore, Ge Li mustered up her courage and continued to approach Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°This is the feeling!¡±


    As she got closer, Ge Li could feel the existence of the longevity substances more clearly.


    However, she couldn¡¯t explain it clearly because she didn¡¯t know about the existence of the longevity substances.


    Therefore, a trace of distress appeared on Ge Li¡¯s face.


    This feeling was very strange.


    When Zhou Feng came back to his senses, he suddenly found that Ge Li was very close to him. It was almost as if his face was close to hers, and a layer of snow white appeared in his eyes.


    With such close contact, Zhou Feng could clearly feel Ge Li¡¯s skin.


    It was moist! Fair and tender! It was also slightly emitting warmth.


    ¡°Um¡­ Can I invite you to my home as a guest?¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng come back to his senses, Ge Li gnashed her teeth and issued an invitation to him.


    ¡°Your home? I have no problem with that!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not refuse. Although Ge Li¡¯s cultivation was not weak, she was far from being his opponent. He wasn¡¯t afraid that Ge Li would do anything untoward.


    Moreover, he needed more information from Ge Li, so Zhou Feng agreed immediately.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Ge Li immediately held his hand.


    Zhou Feng felt that Ge Li¡¯s arm was fragrant and soft.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    The shells on both sides of Ge Li slowly closed. Zhou Feng¡¯s vision turned black, but a weak light slowly appeared.


    This was an unfamiliar space!


    Moreover, this space was not small. It was about the size of a classroom, and there was a round bed in the middle.


    The surroundings were filled with all kinds of jewelry and spiritual herbs. It looked like Ge Li¡¯s boudoir.


    ¡®So, she has her own dimension?¡¯


    Zhou Feng clearly felt that there was something wrong with this space.

 Chapter 588 - Rich Lady

    After entering this special space, Zhou Feng could clearly feel the difference in the size of the space.


    This huge space was obviously not compatible with Ge Li¡¯s clamshell.


    ¡°It¡¯s so comfortable!¡±


    After Ge Li pulled Zhou Feng into her own space, she instantly felt that her body was nourished.


    Most of the longevity substances that leaked out of Zhou Feng¡¯s body were absorbed by this space.


    This was one of Ge Li¡¯s innate abilities, Nourishment!


    Anything that entered this special space would slowly lose energy. This included Spiritual Qi, Blood Qi, and so on.


    The clamshell also had a layer of special great Dao laws that could ensure that no energy leaked out.


    This ability allowed the Arcane Ink Clams to nurture the Arcane Ink Pearl slowly.


    However, the moment someone was able to enter this special space, it meant that Ge Li would be defenseless against them.


    In this space, Ge Li had almost no ability to resist.


    Any mortal with a little bit of cultivation could control Ge Li.


    This was the price of having a strong defense and the ability to nurture the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    Under normal circumstances, Ge Li would never bring anyone into this private space. She wouldn¡¯t even go near anyone, but Zhou Feng was an exception.


    The longevity substances that he emitted were too tempting for Ge Li. In addition, she didn¡¯t sense any malice from Zhou Feng.


    ¡®There¡¯s also my mother¡¯s relic!¡¯


    Other than these factors, what made Ge Li truly determined was the green gemstone on her neck.


    This seemingly ordinary gem was actually a connate numinous treasure from the bottom of the sea.


    It was also the legacy of Ge Li¡¯s mother.


    This connate numinous treasure was naturally carved and carried the laws of the great Dao, so it had a very strong concealment ability.


    And this connate numinous treasure only had one function: to warn of danger.


    As long as there was danger, this green gem would slowly turn red.


    Ge Li had relied on this connate numinous treasure to survive in this sea area for so long.


    ¡®Moreover, he doesn¡¯t know that I have no ability to resist in this space!¡¯


    Ge Li still had many thoughts in her mind.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what Ge Li was thinking.


    At that moment, he was attracted by the things in front of him.


    ¡®This is¡­ Deep-sea Mithril? And refined gold? What kind of ore is this?¡¯


    There were a lot of precious ores in this space.


    There were also some top-tier refining materials, as well as materials that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t recognize.


    Other than that, some of her spiritual herbs only appeared in the deep sea.


    For example, the Dark Blue Fruit. It was a kind of natural treasure that grew on the Dark Blue Fog Vine. It only grew on the bottom of the sea and only produced one fruit every 100 years.


    Its function was to repair the body, and at the same time, it contained a trace of the laws of the great Dao of Water.


    Such natural treasures that contained the laws of the great Dao were especially attractive to Divine Ability or stronger cultivators.


    Unexpectedly, Ge Li was actually an uber-rich woman.


    In fact, Ge Li¡¯s wealth was far more than that.


    Relying on her super senses and treasure-hunting talent, Ge Li had almost collected all the natural treasures in this area of the sea.


    Most of them were used to nurture the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    Above her head, there was the shadow of the Arcane Ink Pearl. This shadow was the result of Ge Li devouring countless natural treasures.


    ¡°You can choose any of these things! Just give me your treasure!¡±


    Ge Li saw the surprise in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes and immediately struck while the iron was hot.


    Up until now, Ge Li did not know that Zhou Feng did not have any treasures on him. What attracted her were Zhou Feng¡¯s longevity substances.


    ¡®So what do I have on me?¡¯


    At that moment, Zhou Feng frowned. He had no idea what Ge Li was talking about.


    However, he was very interested in these treasures.


    If all these things belonged to him, he might consider forging a connate numinous treasure because he had the spirit of the Spiritual Vein as the foundation.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng took out his storage rings.


    He let Ge Li take a look and see what she wanted.


    Zhou Feng even took out his lifebound artifact, the Crimsonfiend Lotus.


    Anyway, he was not afraid of being robbed. Although this space seemed quite solid, Zhou Feng felt he could break through this space at any time.


    ¡®It would be even better if I attacked!¡¯


    It would be better for Zhou Feng if Ge Li dared to attack first. He could attack in a justified way.


    Ge Li immediately checked the storage rings.


    ¡°Not this one!¡±


    Ge Li immediately rejected the Crimsonfiend Lotus.


    This kind of treasure that was emitting filth was not worth her looking at.


    What she wanted to find was the item that was emitting a special aura.


    Seeing that Ge Li was searching carefully, Zhou Feng began to observe everything in this space.


    ¡®If only I had this special space too! Isn¡¯t this an independent grotto-heaven?¡¯


    It would be great if Zhou Feng had an independent grotto-heaven as well. At that time, he would be able to farm in this independent grotto-heaven.


    The Bean Soldiers Ability also had more uses.


    After all, with an independent space, there would be more space to nurture dao soldiers.


    It wouldn¡¯t be like before, where he would be in a hurry to nurture dao soldiers.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts became even more divergent.


    He could even turn the grotto-heaven space into a hidden weapons cave?


    He could even turn it into a good place for seclusion or even a laboratory?


    Zhou Feng had a premonition that as his cultivation increased, it would be impossible for him to make a crazy breakthrough in a year like before.


    Instead, it would become a long-term accumulation, and then he would wait for an opportunity to break through the shackles in one fell swoop.


    The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more interested he became in the grotto-heaven space.


    ¡°No? No? No? It¡¯s all wrong!¡±


    On the other side, Ge Li searched through all the storage rings, but she couldn¡¯t find what she needed.


    However, her feeling wouldn¡¯t be wrong, and the reaction of the Arcane Ink Space wouldn¡¯t be fake either.


    ¡°No?¡±


    Zhou Feng also turned his gaze back to Ge Li.


    ¡°It¡¯s that comfortable feeling¡­¡±


    Gradually, Ge Li turned her gaze to Zhou Feng.


    At first, Ge Li sniffed Zhou Feng¡¯s body. Then, she couldn¡¯t help but Lick Zhou Feng¡¯s cheek.


    This sudden ¡®attack¡¯ stunned him.


    ¡°This is the feeling!¡±


    Before Zhou Feng could react, Ge Li¡¯s eyes lit up.


    ¡®So. that¡¯s the case! The thing that¡¯s beneficial to the condensation of the Arcane Ink Pearl was actually his body.¡¯


    Previously, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was actually comparable to Tang Sanzang¡¯s. Now that he had condensed the Longevity bloodline, he had become even more powerful.


    Even the breath he exhaled had great benefits.


    In the next second, Ge Li directly hung on Zhou Feng¡¯s body and started to rub against him crazily.


    ¡°Eh!?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt his essence energy being slowly absorbed. This speed was extremely slow, and if he wanted to, he could completely lock up his essence energy.

 Chapter 589 - Hugging Zhou Fengs Thigh

    ¡®I can¡¯t believe it!¡¯


    Ge Li realized that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have any treasure on him.


    It was because Zhou Feng was a treasure himself. Just the aura from his body could make her body change a little.


    ¡®But it¡¯s so comfortable!¡¯


    Although she understood, Ge Li didn¡¯t intend to let go.


    If she had followed the previous method, she would have needed to spend a lot of time collecting all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures.


    Then, she would slowly absorb the laws of the great Dao on these heavenly materials and earthly treasures.


    This process might take decades.


    However, if Zhou Feng helped her, the process of condensing the Arcane Ink Pearl might be reduced to a few years.


    The prerequisite was that Zhou Feng could withstand the exploitation of Ge Li.


    ¡°What do you want to do?¡±


    Zhou Feng activated his Fate Wheel slightly and locked his entire body¡¯s power, temporarily preventing the longevity substances from leaking out.


    ¡°N-No More!?¡±


    Ge Li suddenly felt the comfortable aura slowly disappear.


    Although she still hugged Zhou Feng tightly and even rubbed against him crazily like a cat, she could not absorb the longevity substances.


    ¡®I got it!¡¯


    Ge Li finally understood. She wanted to speed up the gathering of the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    To absorb the longevity substance from Zhou Feng, she had to explain some things clearly.


    Furthermore, she could not lie to him too much.


    According to Ge Li¡¯s perception, although Zhou Feng did not have ill intentions, there was a destructive power circling around his body.


    Therefore, Ge Li chose to confess.


    Simply put, she wanted Zhou Feng to help her form the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    Because only after forming the Arcane Ink Pearl could her strength increase greatly.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    After listening to Ge Li¡¯s story, Zhou Feng thought of the longevity substances.


    This made him involuntarily think of what had happened to Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Before Heavenly Venerate Longevity became Heavenly Venerate Longevity, he had experienced countless bloody storms.


    Now that Zhou Feng¡¯s Longevity bloodline had been condensed, he was like a walking human-shaped medicine in some people¡¯s eyes.


    Ge Li was the best proof.


    Maybe he needed to think about this.


    ¡°As long as you agree, these things are yours! And I know where to find a legacy land left by an ancient sect!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng did not agree immediately, Ge Li could not help but feel a little anxious and exposed all of her trump cards.


    After all, Ge Li was still inexperienced. Even if she was very vigilant, she was still too inexperienced in certain aspects.


    ¡®The place of inheritance of an ancient sect?¡¯


    When Zhou Feng heard this, he was not anxious.


    The current situation was extremely beneficial to him, so there was naturally no need to be too anxious.


    ¡°Oh right! Not many people know about that place. I found it by accident!¡±


    Ge Li looked at Zhou Feng eagerly.


    ¡°Deal!¡±


    Zhou Feng thought for a while and agreed.


    Using his longevity substances in exchange for invaluable resources was worth it.


    He could refine the longevity substances slowly if he wanted to.


    Moreover, he could use his Fate Wheel to control the release of the longevity substances at any time.


    He would never be sucked dry.


    He was also interested in Ge Li¡¯s special space.


    1


    The surrounding walls were covered with a special natural pattern.


    Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be a sense of space being distorted.


    Zhou Feng suspected these natural patterns were related to the Dao of Space.


    If possible, he wanted to study it carefully and get a portable space for himself.


    ¡°Great!¡±


    Ge Li hugged Zhou Feng tightly the moment he agreed.


    Her soft body made his blood boil slightly.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t notice it before. Now that he had come back to his senses, he suddenly realized that the two of them were alone in this space. Wasn¡¯t it a little intimate?


    Especially when they hugged each other like this, it seemed like sparks would easily fly!


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but look at Ge Li and found that there was a pure look in her eyes.


    It seemed like she didn¡¯t have any other thoughts, only pure joy.


    Seeing this, he immediately suppressed the restlessness in his body.


    At the same time, Zhou Feng slowly released his Fate Wheel and let the longevity substances in his body dissipate bit by bit.


    An excited smile immediately appeared on Ge Li¡¯s face.


    But in the next second, the excited smile instantly disappeared.


    ¡°Not good!¡±


    A violent tremor followed.


    At this time, outside the Arcane Ink Space¡­


    The sky had become dark at some point, and the scene of the beautiful wind and sun had disappeared without a trace.


    What replaced it was the appearance of a storm.


    The calm sea surface had turbulent waves now.


    Ge Li¡¯s clam was fixed on the sea surface.


    It turned out that when Ge Li entered the Arcane Ink Space of the clam, her outer clamshell could not move.


    The huge clamshell had been floating on the sea surface, which naturally attracted some people¡¯s attention.


    Especially in the Eastern Sea, the legend of the Arcane Ink Clam tribe was prevalent.


    Many cultivators knew very well that Arcane Ink Clams could give birth to the legendary Arcane Ink Pearl.


    Therefore, trouble followed Ge Li everywhere!


    Ge Li was naturally not afraid of these people, but she was afraid of being targeted by the dragons.


    If a dragon targeted her, she would probably need to travel for several years before she could get rid of that lunatic.


    Not to mention that there would definitely be some hidden cultivators coming out of the mountain, and then there would be big trouble.


    Therefore, Ge Li was at a loss.


    ¡°Is something wrong outside? Let me out.¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡±


    Ge Li looked serious. She opened the clamshell and let Zhou Feng out.


    After a while, he returned to the turbulent sea surface.


    The warm and quiet environment had disappeared and was replaced by a terrible environment.


    ¡°It¡¯s really an Arcane Ink Clam!?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s real? Am I seeing things?¡±


    ¡°The legendary Arcane Ink Clam?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng had just returned to the sea¡¯s surface when he heard a series of surprised voices. At the same time, his greedy eyes were focused on Ge Li beside him.


    At this moment, Ge Li used a thick clam shell to cover most of her body.


    Only her head was exposed.


    However, her face was full of uneasiness.


    ¡°It¡¯s bad! It¡¯s bad! I was indeed discovered!¡±


    Their greedy eyes made Ge Li very anxious.


    However, what puzzled Ge Li was that the gem on her neck did not change color under such circumstances.


    In other words, there was no danger? However, in the past, whenever there was a slight movement, the gem¡¯s color would change.


    What changed this time?


    Ge Li was a little puzzled, but she soon understood why the gem¡¯s color on her neck did not change.


    Zhou Feng stood quietly on the sea¡¯s surface, and an aura quietly rose.


    The violent waves began to calm down at this moment, and a hole was immediately torn through the dark clouds.


    The previous phenomenon was directly suppressed and replaced by an even more terrifying phenomenon.

 Chapter 590 - Heaven Rewards Diligence

    Zhou Feng mobilized all the strength in his body, and his Invincible Avatar slowly descended.


    A shadow instantly suppressed all the phenomena.


    That Invincible Avatar caused the originally excited crowd to reveal fear on their faces.


    ¡°Run!¡±


    ¡°Quickly run!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Those with quick reactions immediately chose to run.


    This was because, with just a glance, they could feel the huge gap between themselves and Zhou Feng.


    Who in their right minds would linger here a second longer under such circumstances?


    ¡°Longevity Extermination!¡±


    Zhou Feng reversed the longevity substances in his body and manipulated the Great Void Primordial Qi.


    Zhou Feng summoned a long spear that was flowing with extraordinary colors. It was as white as jade and full of colors.


    It looked like pieces of magical equipment, but the destructive power contained in it was something that even Zhou Feng himself could not withstand.


    His skin began to age, crack, and even looked like it was about to wither.


    After the longevity substances were reverse-engineered, they instantly changed from the most desirable thing in the world to a terrifying substance.


    2


    This was the divine ability that Zhou Feng had comprehended after sleeping for so long.


    This divine ability also had huge flaws, and it could even be said that it wasn¡¯t created at all.


    Now, he was completely using it by force, and it was somewhat similar to the Longevity Steps from before.


    However, it didn¡¯t matter. Although this divine ability had many flaws, Zhou Feng was able to bear all of them.


    The injuries on his body started to recover in an instant.


    In the next instant, Ge Li witnessed a crazy massacre.


    Those who didn¡¯t leave immediately were all pierced through the heart by the extermination spear.


    There was no time for them to react.


    Those who were hit by the extermination spears began to age at an accelerated rate.


    It was as if their entire body was accelerated hundreds of times. Their skin was smooth and full of wrinkles, and their figures became tall and slender.


    Finally, they fell directly into the sea and died here.


    The most alarming thing was that these spears couldn¡¯t be blocked at all. A cultivator with a Heart-Protecting Mirror was directly pierced through.


    The Heart-Protecting Mirror, which was shining in a different light, did not have any effect.


    After a while, the scene calmed down.


    ¡°So powerful!¡±


    Zhou Feng sighed after witnessing Longevity Extermination¡¯s power.


    The anti-longevity substances were terrifying.


    However, there were also the effects of the various passive buffs. The passive Human Slayer¡¯s buffs were still very obvious.


    Until now, the passive Human Slayer had accumulated about 100,000 stacks.


    All of Zhou Feng¡¯s attacks could enjoy the passive Human Slayer¡¯s buffs.


    It was also because of this that he was able to clear the area in the shortest amount of time.


    ¡®I can draw a new passive!¡¯


    He glanced at the skill panel and found that the last progress bar was full.


    In other words, he might be able to draw another abnormal passive like the passive Human Slayer.


    It was hard to imagine how much Zhou Feng¡¯s strength would improve at this rate.


    When these passives were stacked together, there wouldn¡¯t be a qualitative change when the number was small.


    But after the number increased, his strength would definitely increase.


    It just so happened that he was in an incubation period.


    ¡°Alright! The problem is solved! Let¡¯s talk about the land of inheritance!¡±


    After dealing with these little ants, Zhou Feng turned his gaze back to Ge Li.


    ¡°Ah?¡±


    Ge Li was still in shock by the strength Zhou Feng displayed.


    Now, Ge Li couldn¡¯t help but admire her boldness.


    She had actually dared to drag Zhou Feng into the Arcane Ink Space.


    If Zhou Feng had any evil intentions, there was no way she could escape.


    Fortunately, her luck seemed to be very good.


    Ge Li returned to her senses and asked softly, ¡°Then, let¡¯s go?¡±


    Compared to before, she was less casual and more reserved.


    There was no intuitive difference before, but Ge Li was naturally not so calm now that there was.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go,¡± replied Zhou Feng.


    Next, Ge Li led him in a direction slowly.


    Taking advantage of this free time, he also drew the new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    It was still the familiar process.


    But this time, it was different.


    ¡®Golden light again!?¡¯


    Threads of golden light appeared on the skill panel. Apart from that, Zhou Feng could vaguely hear the chanting of the great Dao.


    It was as if the whole world was cheering for it.


    ¡°What kind of passive skill is this? There¡¯s actually a phenomenon?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s state of mind was originally very stable. After all, he had drawn many passive draws, and he was already used to it.


    However, the new passive skill seemed to be a little unusual.


    Heaven Rewards Diligence: Pay, and you shall receive! You are the son of the Heavenly Dao!


    3


    This new passive skill had a very simple description, but the effect was heaven-defying.


    ¡®Pay, and you shall receive? This¡­¡¯


    When Zhou Feng saw this passive skill, he was momentarily stunned.


    What did the son of the Heavenly Dao indicate? That one was the most beloved child of the heavens!


    As long as one gave, there would be a reward. This didn¡¯t sound like much, but if one thought about it carefully, they would be able to understand how terrifying it was.


    There was a question of the rate of return involved, just like how mortals cultivated.


    Despite their hard work in cultivation, most mortals¡¯ aptitudes and other factors limited their potential.


    The return was zero! There wasn¡¯t necessarily a return for putting in the effort.


    Sometimes, putting in a lot of effort might just make the body healthier.


    The Heavenly Dao rewarded diligence. This was only applicable to geniuses. Even cultivating the Demonic Dao required talent.


    Cultivating the Demonic Dao required a lot of character. A single act of ruthlessness could eliminate many people.


    But now that Zhou Feng had this passive skill, it meant that no matter what he did, there would be a return.


    For example, enlightenment. Before this, Zhou Feng would not have been able to comprehend anything. Most of the time, he would just be sitting there.


    But now, he would definitely be able to gain something, even if there were very few things.


    But this was still the difference from zero to one.


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but ask himself, ¡®Is this passive skill real?¡¯


    To think that such an abnormal passive skill could actually be drawn.


    With this passive skill, perhaps the great Dao of Longevity wouldn¡¯t be his only pursuit.


    It seemed like he could pick up pill refining, forging, and other side jobs.


    In the beginning, due to his limited aptitude and other factors, Zhou Feng had no choice but to give up many side jobs, such as pill refinement.


    This was because only in this way could he put all his energy into cultivation.


    Now that he had the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, he wouldn¡¯t be content with just mastering pill refinement.


    There was also the grotto-heaven space that he wanted in the beginning.


    ¡®I want to see if I¡¯m more powerful or if those freaks from the Central Plains are more powerful!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mentality swelled up a lot in an instant.


    He wanted to see if he could do it and become the genuine son of the Heavenly Dao.

 Chapter 591 - Going with the Flow

    After obtaining the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, Zhou Feng began optimizing the Longevity Steps.


    As the first divine ability he created, the Longevity Steps could be said to be powerful, except that they required a long lifespan.


    Every time he used the Longevity Steps, a large amount of longevity substances and vitality would be consumed. It was a proper longevity harvester.


    Even Zhou Feng did not dare to use it casually.


    However, now that he had the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, a thought actually rose in his mind.


    In the past, if he wanted to optimize this divine ability, he would have no way of doing so.


    Creating the Longevity Steps was already his current limit.


    Optimize? This was simply impossible. Previously, Zhou Feng had spent a lot of effort and the AI¡¯s computational power, but he had no idea how to further improve them.


    But now, with just this thought, he had a clue.


    In fact, as long as Zhou Feng spent more time, there would be more and more clues to optimize.


    For a time, he even thought that his brain had become much better.


    It was like he was born with knowledge. He had clearly never come into contact with this kind of knowledge before, but now he had a clue just by thinking about it.


    Just from this point alone, it could be seen how heaven-defying this passive Heaven Rewards Diligence was.


    ¡®It just takes a little bit of time. If only I could be faster!¡¯


    Even so, Zhou Feng could not help but complain in his heart.


    If he wanted to completely optimize the Longevity Steps, he would need a very long time.


    Nonetheless, Zhou Feng had condensed the Longevity bloodline, so his lifespan was very long. It was in line with this passive skill.


    He had the time to grind slowly.


    ¡®Maybe I should comprehend the great Dao of Time?¡¯


    Just like that, he was led forward by Ge Li with all kinds of thoughts.


    The place they were going to was very far away, and Ge Li needed to accumulate energy to condense the Arcane Ink Pearl, so Zhou Feng returned to the dimension to help her rest.


    Then, a white flower appeared in front of his eyes.


    Ge Li hugged him, and her warm body jolted Zhou Feng¡¯s spirit.


    ¡°More!¡±


    In order to extract more longevity substances, and in addition to the agreement with Zhou Feng, Ge Li¡¯s movements were very big.


    She hung on Zhou Feng¡¯s body and kept rubbing against him.


    It made Zhou Feng¡¯s breathing a little hurried.


    In the end, he might as well go with the flow.


    At the deep sea¡­


    An inconspicuous shell of a clam was floating on the seabed.


    Many small fish were wandering around.


    Suddenly, the shell of the clam moved slightly, and Zhou Feng drilled out of it.


    ¡°I can¡¯t go on like this!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt a little weak. It was unprecedented.


    He didn¡¯t know how long it had been since he felt this way.


    At this time, Ge Li came out of the space with a bright face.


    ¡°Not bad! It¡¯s much faster than before!¡±


    Ge Li was excited because the Arcane Ink Pearl¡¯s condensation speed was 10 times faster than before.


    Moreover, in her eyes, Zhou Feng was also a very interesting person and a good partner. He did not have dirty thoughts, was not bad looking, and was strong.


    Compared to all the cultivators she had met before, including the true dragons, Zhou Feng was the most outstanding one.


    After having such a new experience, Ge Li was afraid to return to her previous state of being alone.


    Therefore, Ge Li chose to rely on Zhou Feng.


    In any case, she had already decided that she would follow Zhou Feng no matter where he went.


    Moreover, she did not have any requirements for the environment. With the existence of the Arcane Ink Space, Ge Li carried her house with her.


    The clamshell could shrink to the size of a palm, so Ge Li was not afraid no matter where she went.


    As for Zhou Feng, he did not have many reasons to refuse.


    Firstly, Ge Li was very pure and did not have many plans.


    It could be said that she was the most suitable partner among all the women he had met.


    Secondly, Ge Li was carrying a huge dowry. She even had a space that he could carry around with him.


    1


    This made it impossible for him to refuse.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng went with the flow.


    However, he had to control himself, or else he might not be able to take it.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t dare to rest, so he urged Ge Li to take him to the land of heritage of the ancient sect.


    Then, he would go into seclusion for a while.


    After that, he could think about finding trouble with the Daemon League and then go to the Central Plains.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    Ge Li didn¡¯t refuse.


    In the boundless sea, on a small island¡­


    This place was very quiet, and not even seaweed could be seen.


    However, this was the land of heritage that Ge Li had mentioned.


    This place wasn¡¯t a sea area but a continent ruled by a super sect.


    But then, this sect encountered a disaster and gradually weakened.


    In the end, for some unknown reason, this place began to become deathly silent. No living person was willing to approach this place.


    As long as one approached this place, their mind would become calm, and they would have no desire to leave this place.


    What was even more terrifying was that even the desire to eat would disappear.


    It was unknown how many cultivators had starved to death here.


    Of course, there was also the inheritance left behind by that super sect.


    This phenomenon was because of that inheritance. This phenomenon would disappear if someone could pass the test and inherit the inheritance.


    Unfortunately, none of the cultivators had succeeded.


    This place had once attracted countless cultivators, but now it was empty.


    At first, Ge Li had only said this to Zhou Feng because she wanted to give him more chips.


    After all, although Ge Li was simple, it didn¡¯t mean that she didn¡¯t have a heart.


    Now, Ge Li had told Zhou Feng about the strangeness of this place.


    But the more it was like this, the more interested Zhou Feng became.


    According to Ge Li, this inheritance existed in the form of a Dao Seed.


    A Dao Seed was floating on that uninhabited island.


    As long as it was close to this place, this Dao Seed would issue a test.


    In the past, Zhou Feng would never get close to this place. However, his mentality instantly changed after gaining the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence.


    With the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, he might be able to pass the test.


    When the time came, he would obtain the inheritance of a super sect.


    And even if he failed in the end, it didn¡¯t matter. After all, this place was quiet enough for him to cultivate in seclusion for a period.


    It was also because of this thought that Zhou Feng approached this quiet place.


    ¡°Wait! This is¡­¡±


    The moment he approached this place, the desire in his heart was greatly reduced.


    Then, a vvisualization technique appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    This visualization technique was the test of the ancient sect¡¯s heritage.

 Chapter 592 - Just Think Hard!

    ¡®Bodhi Visualization Technique?¡¯


    As soon as Zhou Feng entered this realm, a visualization technique appeared in his mind.


    ¡°A free visualization technique?¡±


    This visualization appeared in his mind without any warning and without any cost.


    Such a situation made him more or less uneasy.


    After all, Zhou Feng was very clear about the magical and precious nature of the visualization techniques.


    Up until now, he had only obtained one visualization technique and then improved it to create a nondescript visualization technique.


    Because of his previous lack of talent, the visualization technique that he cultivated didn¡¯t have much of an existence.


    Its only use was probably to strengthen the power of the soul.


    But now that he had obtained a visualization technique for no reason, it made him extremely vigilant.


    Ge Li was used to it.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay! This visualization technique is considered a gift here. There won¡¯t be any danger!¡±


    The visualization technique that Ge Li was cultivating was the Bodhi Visualization Technique.


    This visualization technique didn¡¯t have any side effects. It could be said to be moderate and peaceful. It was the kind of righteous cultivation technique.


    The only shortcoming was that this visualization technique only had one visualization diagram.


    It could only enhance the power of the soul, calm the mind, and prevent the invasion of foreign evil.


    Before this, countless cultivators had cultivated this Bodhi Visualization Technique.


    It could be said that the safety had been tested.


    ¡°It¡¯s actually like this¡­¡±


    Hearing Ge Li¡¯s words, Zhou Feng was even more puzzled. Why did they do this?


    Why did they waste so much effort just to let everyone learn this visualization technique?


    Everyone had their own motivation to do things, not to mention these ancient sects.


    The higher one¡¯s cultivation realm was, the more or less one would have some understanding of the future and destiny.


    ¡°The technique to obtain the inheritance is also very simple. That is to become obsessed while cultivating the Bodhi Visualization Technique¡­¡±


    Perhaps because of the influence of this place, Ge Li lost a lot of vitality when she explained.


    That¡¯s right! To obtain a Dao Seed, one had to go crazy while cultivating the Bodhi Visualization Technique in this place.


    Moreover, one could not leave this area. Once one left, it would not count.


    Previously, because of this condition, many cultivators had set up camp here.


    In order to obtain the inheritance of this ancient sect, their desire was gradually reduced.


    Until their desire to move was reduced, and they starved to death here.


    ¡°That¡¯s why we can only stay here for three days at most. If we stay too long, we¡¯ll be in danger.¡±


    Ge Li explained some small details clearly.


    After all, Ge Li didn¡¯t dare to talk to anyone casually for fear of being discovered before meeting Zhou Feng.


    In order to get rid of the boredom in her heart, Ge Li started to inquire about all kinds of secrets.


    Besides satisfying her curiosity, it could also relieve her boredom. Sometimes, eavesdropping on others¡¯ conversations was also a great pleasure for Ge Li.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    It was a peaceful visualization technique, but it required one to be mentally deranged during the visualization.


    Not to mention how difficult it was, just this weird request alone was enough to confuse people.


    This kind of request didn¡¯t look like an orthodox sect, no matter how one looked at it.


    Instead, it was a bit like a demonic sect.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go! We¡¯ll leave first!¡±


    Zhou Feng thought for a moment and left this sea area, as far away as possible from the small island where the Dao Seed was floating.


    It was still the same modus operandi.


    Now that he had obtained a safe and harmless visualization technique out of thin air, he had already made a profit. Therefore, there was no need for him to continue taking the risk.


    With the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence and the Bodhi Visualization Technique, he would soon be able to perfect his own visualization technique.


    As for that illusory inheritance, Zhou Feng did not desire it that much.


    Or rather, he didn¡¯t want to take the risk himself.


    Therefore, he left this strange place at once.


    ¡°Let¡¯s find a place to settle down first.¡±


    ¡°Sure.¡±


    Ge Li naturally didn¡¯t have any objections to this.


    Anyway, she usually wandered around and occasionally eavesdropped on other people¡¯s conversations.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s idea was also very simple. He needed a quiet environment so that he could turn all his resources into power.


    Not only did he condense the Longevity bloodline at the Bottom of the Abyss, but he also obtained a lot of data.


    In addition, he obtained a few passive skills in a row.


    Now, he needed to turn all these things into power.


    After wandering for so long, it was time to stop temporarily.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng brought Ge Li to a rocky desert island and settled down.


    Because he didn¡¯t know how long he would stay, he treated this small desert island as a place to hide from the world in the future.


    Everything was built according to the highest standards.


    Ge Li was very enthusiastic about this. Before this, she had been wandering around and didn¡¯t have a fixed place to settle down.


    Therefore, she was very interested in building a home of her own.


    ¡°The first thing is to expand the area!¡±


    The rocky island in front of him was really small, so Zhou Feng¡¯s first thought was to expand the area.


    ¡°It¡¯d be best if this island could move. A natural maze would not be bad either.


    ¡°There are all kinds of spiritual herbs on the island, and some spiritual beasts, such as the Tricolor Deer¡­


    ¡°It would be even better if there were Spiritual Veins at the bottom¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng began to think about it on the spot. He had designed this sea base completely according to the legendary Mount Penglai.


    If he was tired of fighting in the future, he could retire here.


    As he thought about it, he couldn¡¯t help but think further.


    ¡°The technique to create land! I don¡¯t know it either! Do I have to think about it directly?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned.


    Anyway, he had the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, so he had to think about it!


    Zhou Feng slowly closed his eyes and began to create the technique to make land in his mind.


    First, what was needed for the land reconstruction¡­ Then, he threw away the unreasonable thoughts¡­


    At first, he didn¡¯t have any thoughts because he didn¡¯t have any knowledge reserves.


    But soon, a thought began to appear.


    Zhou Feng knew that passive Heaven Rewards Diligence triggered this, and then the role of the AI began to work.


    Compared to his own hard thinking, although the AI couldn¡¯t deduce the correct answer, it could eliminate countless wrong answers.


    The combination of the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence and the AI¡¯s computational ability made Zhou Feng feel as if he had God¡¯s help.


    The embryonic form of a divine ability slowly appeared.


    ¡°A moving island! Then I need a super island foundation!


    ¡°Wait! The spirit of the Spiritual Vein seems to be useful! Why don¡¯t I refine a small island treasure? The entire island shall be a treasure!¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t suppress his thoughts when he thought of this.


    ¡°A home of my own! Not bad!¡±


    Ge Li looked at Zhou Feng, who was in a daze, with a happy expression on her face.


    At the same time, she didn¡¯t stop moving her hands. She planned to plant seaweed all over the area. It would be best if she could build a fishing ground by then.

 Chapter 593 - The Dragon Kings Birthday

    Because Zhou Feng did not overanalyze, and with the help of the AI, a very shallow divine ability was created directly.


    This divine ability was called Earth Creation. Other than being able to forcibly condense a foundation, it had no other effects.


    But this was completely enough for Zhou Feng.


    And with Earth Creation, he even comprehended a trace of the laws of the great Dao of Earth.


    The perverse aspect of the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence was fully displayed.


    It did not take him much time to comprehend the laws of the Dao of Earth.


    This was equivalent to directly stepping into the Dao. In the eyes of countless cultivators, this was a rare thing.


    Countless cultivators had wasted countless years in order to step into the Dao, but in the end, they still failed.


    Now, Zhou Feng had forcefully comprehended it.


    ¡°Rise!¡±


    He mobilized the power of his soul and began to use Earth Creation.


    A large number of rocks were extracted from the deep sea, including some small mineral veins.


    Then, they were all integrated into the small island in front of him.


    Originally, this island was just a bare rocky island.


    At this moment, with Zhou Feng¡¯s efforts, the island began to expand crazily.


    The barren rock was slowly covered with soil.


    All of this was completed in just a dozen seconds.


    ¡°So powerful!¡±


    Ge Li was stunned by this miraculous scene.


    An island grew just like that?


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    However, Ge Li was even more shocked because Zhou Feng¡¯s body suddenly had many wounds.


    It was terrifying. Zhou Feng¡¯s skin was dry, and the wounds were like dry and cracked earth.


    But soon, the wounds slowly disappeared.


    In a short while, the wounds on his body had all disappeared,


    This was naturally a side effect of Earth Creation!


    He naturally had to pay a price to create a pseudo divine ability in such a short period.


    Because he only knew a little about the Dao of Earth, every time he used Earth Creation, his body would be suppressed by the power of laws.


    However, these injuries were nothing to Zhou Feng.


    Speaking of which, this should be considered his personal characteristic. All his divine abilities would definitely injure the user in exchange for power.


    ¡°Spirit of the Spiritual Vein! Go!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately took out the spirit of the Spiritual Vein and sealed it in the center of the island.


    With the spirit of the Spiritual Vein, the small island could slowly absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.


    Finally, a Spiritual Vein would form underneath the island.


    At that time, the small island would have the power to move.


    ¡°Next are the formations! There must be a large number of formations! The Spirit-Gathering Formation and the Bewildering Formation are the most basic!¡±


    In the following time, Zhou Feng began his journey of thinking.


    He relied on the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence to start thinking passively.


    Because of the existence of the AI, he could even multitask.


    Ge Li helped Zhou Feng construct Penglai Island.


    That¡¯s right! He had already named this island Penglai Island.


    ¡­


    ¡°A female Arcane Ink Clam has appeared?¡±


    ¡°Is it the legendary Arcane Ink Clam? The Arcane Ink Clam, who can condense the Arcane Ink Pearl?¡±


    ¡°Someone saw her with their own eyes!¡±


    ¡°It just so happens that the Dragon King¡¯s birthday is approaching. If we can get the Arcane Ink Pearl, we might be able to borrow the Sea-Suppressing Needle!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was busy building Penglai Island, the news of the Arcane Ink Clam¡¯s reappearance spread again.


    The Arcane Ink Clam had almost become a legend in the Eastern Sea.


    Now that the news had spread, it naturally attracted a lot of attention.


    Of course, the cultivators in the Eastern Sea were focused on two things.


    The first was the Dragon King¡¯s 1,000-year birthday.


    At that time, countless cultivators and aquatic tribes would go to congratulate him.


    This was also a grand event in the Eastern Sea.


    The Dragon King of the Eastern Sea was a true prodigy. It had only taken him a few hundred years to break through to the Ascendance realm and rule over the true dragons of the Eastern Sea.


    No one knew how strong the Dragon King of the Eastern Sea, who had cultivated for 1,000, was.


    But the only thing they could be sure of was that in the Eastern Sea, other than the lunatics of the Daemon League, no one could not give face to the Dragon King of the Eastern Sea.


    If they could get their hands on Ge Li, it was very likely that they would gain the favor of the Dragon King.


    This was also why so many people wanted to hunt Ge Li


    The second major matter was also related to the Eastern Dragon King.


    That was the expansion of the Daemon League. The Daemon League had seized another piece of land and was preparing to fill the sea to create land.


    Counting the previous few times, who knew how many living areas of the aquatic tribes had been occupied.


    In order to fight against the Daemon League, the aquatic tribes naturally wanted to rely on the power of the Dragon King of the Eastern Sea.


    Because of these two reasons, many aquatic tribes and cultivators were even more eager for the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    In just a few days, some people had already begun to look for traces of the Arcane Ink Clam.


    On the other side, Zhou Feng¡¯s Penglai Island had already been preliminarily built.


    ¡°Not bad! Not bad at all!¡±


    Zhou Feng nodded in satisfaction.


    The originally small rocky island had undergone an earth-shaking change.


    Its area had expanded several times, roughly equivalent to five or six football fields, and it was still growing with time.


    Countless reefs around the island were connected to the island, and these reefs had also become the cornerstone of the formations.


    A maze formation covered the entire Penglai Island.


    There were also three core formations in the center of the island: the Spirit-Shrinking Formation, the Spirit-Gathering Formation, and the Spirit Transformation Formation.


    The main purpose of these three formations was to attract Spiritual Qi, lock up the Spiritual Qi, and provide it for Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation needs.


    Now that the foundation had been laid, he only needed to continue to perfect Penglai Island like building blocks.


    Perhaps this Penglai Island in front of him could be like the legendary Penglai Island.


    ¡°Come quickly! Come quickly!¡±


    Ge Li suddenly waved at Zhou Feng.


    It turned out that Ge Li had successfully planted some special seaweed in the lake at the center of the island.


    This seaweed was very special. They could absorb Spiritual Qi and then spit out purer Spiritual Qi.


    Generally speaking, the place where this seaweed grew was where the major aquatic species lived.


    For some reason, Ge Li successfully transplanted it.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but smile.


    To be honest, he was very relaxed during this period. He didn¡¯t even deliberately cultivate.


    If possible, he hoped that he could continue like this.


    But it was obviously impossible. The previous experiences made Zhou Feng understand.


    If he did not have enough strength to protect everything in front of him, then everything in front of him would only be a mirage.


    He needed strength and wanted to head to the Central Plains. He still had more time to live.


    Therefore, he could not continue to relax like this.


    ¡°It just so happens that the Bodhi Visualization Technique is almost dismantled. I can totally try out this so-called inheritance!¡±


    During this period of relaxation, Zhou Feng himself relaxed, but the AI did not.


    Relying on the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, he really thought of a special method.


    He could enter the state of being possessed while cultivating the Bodhi Visualization Technique.


    However, he did not intend to try out the so-called Dao Seed inheritance himself.


    Who knew if this was a trap? It was better to find a few guinea pigs for safety reasons.

 Chapter 594 - A True Dragon?

    After laying Penglai Island¡¯s foundation, Zhou Feng began to dismantle the Bodhi Visualization Technique.


    He was still very interested in the inheritance of this ancient sect.


    Relying on the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, he really dismantled a lot of things.


    This visualization technique had a special effect on meditation, allowing people to maintain maximum calmness.


    Thus, avoiding the situation of Qi deviation and cultivating to the depths.


    All cultivators faced a difficulty, which was how to maintain an ordinary mind under the vast laws of the great Dao.


    For all cultivators, the mysteries of the laws of the great Dao were intoxicating.


    Especially for the prodigies who had just immersed themselves in the laws of the great Dao.


    Because these people were talented enough, they could easily sense the laws of the great Dao.


    Therefore, accidents were more likely to happen.


    If they were not careful, they would be directly immersed in it, becoming obsessed or even going crazy.


    Coincidentally, this Bodhi Visualization Technique could prevent this situation from happening.


    Whether it was from the idea or other aspects, this visualization technique was very upright, and there was no possibility of accidents happening.


    Cultivating a visualization technique until qi deviation?


    This was an almost impossible thing to do.


    Yet, this ancient sect required him to cultivate this visualization technique to qi deviation.


    If Zhou Feng had not been passively rewarded by the Heavenly Dao, he would not have been able to find the slightest clue.


    ¡°So this is to choose an extremely obsessed and paranoid person?¡±


    He silently visualized the modified Bodhi Visualization Technique.


    A sense of paranoia began to spread.


    However, outside of this paranoia and craziness, there was a peaceful and kind face.


    In the eyes of Ge Li, Zhou Feng¡¯s body seemed to be sprinkled with a gentle Buddhist light.


    It gave people a feeling of compassion and peace.


    In fact, in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart, there was paranoia and a destructive desire.


    Madness and compassion coexisted, and the madness was hidden in the deepest part of his heart.


    After visualizing for some time, Zhou Feng almost lost himself in it.


    ¡°So scary!¡±


    Zhou Feng wanted to forcefully forget the smiling Buddha in his mind.


    The visualization in his mind turned from a Bodhi to a Buddha.


    This was too strange!


    But in contrast, Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was greatly enhanced, and his perception was clearer. He could even touch a trace of the laws of the great Dao, and the sound of Brahma lingered in his ears.


    ¡°No! This visualization technique must be improved! It must become my visualization technique!¡±


    After forcibly forgetting the Buddha in his mind, Zhou Feng had the idea to modify this visualization technique.


    This visualization technique was obviously not simple; it was a trap.


    But its foundation was still not bad and could be used as research material.


    After being passively rewarded by the Heavenly Dao, Zhou Feng had already planned to fuse all the techniques and divine abilities he had seen together.


    Gather all the techniques in the world and gather them into a method of longevity.


    This was his current thought.


    He would not even dare to think about it if it was before. After all, the difficulty was too great.


    But now that Zhou Feng was inflated¡ªhe had the confidence.


    ¡°I¡¯ll just call it the Heavenly Classic of Longevity!¡±


    Zhou Feng gave the technique he created a name.


    And if nothing unexpected happened, the Heavenly Classic of Longevity would continue to be updated.


    As long as he didn¡¯t die, he would continuously add techniques and divine abilities to it.


    This was a technique that only immortals were qualified to cultivate.


    And all its techniques had very high conditions to be used. For example, it would cause great damage to the physical body.


    Self-mutilation of the physical body was considered light!


    The consumption of lifespan was only a routine operation.


    If it was possible, Zhou Feng was even prepared to announce the creation of the Heavenly Classic of Longevity.


    At that time, there would definitely be countless heaven¡¯s favorites who would refer to and cultivate, and then he would come looking for them one by one.


    Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to borrowing all the heaven¡¯s favorites¡¯ hands to help him complete the Heavenly Classic of Longevity?


    This method was very suicidal!


    If he didn¡¯t have enough strength, he would be courting death.


    But this was what made it exciting!


    ¡°Zhou Feng! I don¡¯t know why, but suddenly there are many people outside!¡±


    Just as he was thinking about it, Ge Li¡¯s face was full of worry.


    The atmosphere outside was a bit strange.


    The originally sparsely populated Eastern Sea suddenly became lively, as if they were looking for something.


    Ge Li¡¯s first thought was to hide quickly. She was extremely sensitive to danger.


    ¡°Many people?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know what happened in the Eastern Sea. He also didn¡¯t know that a group of cultivators was looking for Ge Li to attend the Dragon King¡¯s birthday.


    ¡°How about this? You hide first. I¡¯ll go and get some information,¡± he asked Ge Li to hide in the Arcane Ink Space first.


    Then, Zhou Feng got out to find out some information.


    Compared to his previous partners, the best thing about Ge Li was that she could follow him at any time.


    She would hide in the Arcane Ink Space when they were in danger, and Zhou Feng could run away with the clamshell.


    Just like what happened now.


    Ge Li disappeared, and a clam appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s palm.


    Moreover, this clam was very small. He could wear it with a rope and hang it around his neck.


    ¡°I can take this opportunity to stroll around.¡±


    After staying on Penglai Island for such a long time, Zhou Feng was actually a little bored.


    Also, he hadn¡¯t completed his goal of collecting ores with an immortal aura.


    It was time to complete it.


    ¡­


    ¡°You¡¯re crazy! Ink Flood Dragon King! How dare you attack a true dragon?¡±


    ¡°You!¡±


    On the vast ocean, a brutal massacre was happening.


    No one present had expected that the Ink Flood Dragon King, who had disappeared for so many years, would reappear on the Eastern Sea and start to attack the true dragons right after a true dragon died here.


    The dark yellow dragon blood dyed the entire sea surface.


    The Ink Dragon King¡¯s face was cold. His black armor covered his entire body, and even his face was sealed.


    A long spear slowly fell, and the dragon blood gathered at the tip of the spear.


    Just by standing on the sea surface, everyone present was shocked by the Ink Dragon King¡¯s aura.


    In fact, this matter was related to the reappearance of the Arcane Ink Clam.


    The re-emergence of Arcane Ink Clam caused the entire Eastern Sea to move.


    Everyone wanted to find Ge Li and present the legendary Arcane Ink Pearl to the Dragon King.


    They hoped to enter the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    After decades of riots, the Eastern Sea¡¯s vortex finally had a tendency to calm down temporarily.


    This was also an opportunity to enter the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    There were spiritual veins on land and countless vortexes at the bottom of the sea.


    These vortices were connected to super Spiritual Veins. Every once in a while, a large amount of pure Spiritual Qi would come out of the vortices along with the seawater.


    Therefore, most of the forces on the bottom of the sea occupied a vortex.


    Among them, the Dragon Palace occupied the most top-class vortices. Not only was it the largest one, but it was also connected to a mystic realm.


    For cultivators, the mystic realm naturally meant all kinds of resources and treasures.


    There were also some special treasures.


    Every time the mystic realm was opened, the Dragon Palace would open a few places to the outside world in exchange for the required resources.


    After all, there were many resources at the bottom of the sea that could not be obtained, such as some special spiritual herbs that were only produced on land.


    Therefore, in the eyes of many people, the Arcane Ink Pearl represented a ticket to enter the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    Among them were many descendants of the Dragon Palace.


    Therefore, the Ink Dragon King seized this opportunity.


    A descendant of the Dragon Palace with the bloodline of a true dragon died here.


    ¡°This is a true dragon?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the true dragon floating on the surface of the sea. The true dragon in front of him was far from what he had imagined.

 Chapter 595 - The Pain of Losing a Child

    Zhou Feng looked at the corpse of the true dragon in front of him. It was quite different from what he had imagined.


    According to the people around him, this was a disciple of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace.


    But now that he looked at it, it did not look like a true dragon at all. Only its golden scales betrayed it was a true dragon.


    There was nothing else that made it resemble a true dragon.


    But even so, he was still very interested in this corpse.


    True dragons were blessed by the heavens¡ªthey had powerful physical bodies, an innate ability to call the wind and rain, and a long lifespan.


    Other than the low fertility rate, there were almost no flaws.


    If only he could dissect a true dragon and get some inspiration from it.


    Legend had it that in ancient times, humans relied on dissecting all kinds of strange beasts and divine beasts to learn all kinds of divine abilities.


    Divine beasts, like true dragons, were born with innate divine abilities, and their bones were engraved with the laws of the great Dao.


    With the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, he would not let go of any method to improve himself.


    There was no price to try anyway. No matter what, there would be a return.


    With such a terrifying passive skill, Zhou Feng naturally used whatever he could. He would not let go until he squeezed out the last bit of value.


    ¡°As expected, the Ink Flood Dragon King really came back for revenge!¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect the revenge to be so fierce. Let¡¯s leave this place as soon as possible!¡±


    ¡°But what the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace did back then was indeed a bit too much.¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s go! Don¡¯t just stand there!¡±


    Looking at the Silent Ink Flood Dragon King, many cultivators prepared to leave.


    Because this was the grudge between the Ink Flood Dragon King and the Dragon Palace, they couldn¡¯t get involved and didn¡¯t dare to.


    ¡°My son! Don¡¯t worry! None of them can escape!¡±


    The Ink Flood Dragon King, who stood proudly on the surface of the sea, couldn¡¯t help but look sorrowful.


    But soon, that sorrowful look turned into determination.


    Speaking of which, the Ink Flood Dragon King could be considered unlucky.


    He had the bloodline of a true dragon in his body, and his aptitude wasn¡¯t bad.


    If nothing unexpected happened, he could even turn into a true dragon by jumping through the Dragon Gate.


    By now, the true dragons¡¯ power had shrunk significantly.


    The definition of a true dragon was also much broader. As long as the dragon bloodline in his body reached a certain level, he could be called a true dragon.


    This was a compromise made by the Dragon Palace in order to expand their manpower.


    According to the standards of ancient times, only the Eastern Sea Dragon King could be called a true dragon.


    And it was this reason that caused the tragedy of the Ink Flood Dragon King.


    The son of the Ink Flood Dragon King had undergone bloodline atavism and even obtained a dragon bone when he was young.


    This was simply the treatment of a main character. Not only did he have a bloodline atavism at birth, but he also obtained an ancient true dragon bone when he was young.


    Relying on these fortuitous encounters, the son of the Ink Flood Dragon King instantly transformed into a five-clawed true dragon.


    However, this soon attracted the attention of the Dragon Palace.


    The Ink Flood Dragon King had only just entered the Daemon King rank (Divine Ability realm) and had no ability to protect a young true dragon.


    Moreover, when the Dragon Palace found the son of the Ink Flood Dragon King, the true dragon bone hadn¡¯t been completely fused.


    What happened next was very simple.


    The dragon bone of the son of the Ink Flood Dragon King was extracted, and he was even imprisoned in the Dragon Palace.


    They extracted the true dragon¡¯s blood every day.


    In the eyes of the Dragon Palace and others, a mere son of the Ink Flood Dragon King wasn¡¯t worthy of the true dragon blood.


    The blood of a true dragon could only be obtained by the Dragon Palace.


    The Ink Flood Dragon King was so angry that he tried to break into the Dragon Palace. Ultimately, he was stripped of his dragon tendon and driven out of the Dragon Palace.


    Normally, the Ink Flood Dragon King would never have the chance to take revenge in his life.


    But now that the Ink Flood Dragon King had made a comeback, his strength was even more unfathomable.


    Everyone around was afraid of getting into trouble, so they left early.


    However, Zhou Feng stood still and became very eye-catching.


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    The Ink Flood Dragon King also noticed Zhou Feng at once.


    Everyone was afraid of getting into trouble and left, but this person actually stayed?


    Under this premise, the Ink Flood Dragon King became vigilant.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng gave people a strange and unpredictable feeling.


    ¡°Do you have a grudge against the Dragon Palace? Or do you have a grudge against true dragons? Does that mean you know the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace very well?¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly opened his mouth under the gaze of the Ink Flood Dragon King.


    ¡°What?¡±


    The Ink Flood Dragon King did not expect Zhou Feng to ask such a question.


    He was already prepared for the battle.


    After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s actions seemed to be seeking revenge against the Dragon Palace.


    The Eastern Sea Dragon Palace had a true dragon in charge, and they could nominally command all kinds of aquatic creatures.


    They had accumulated a lot of treasures over the thousands of years, and countless cultivators in the Eastern Sea wanted to curry favor with the Dragon Palace.


    They wanted to obtain precious cultivation resources.


    For example, the recently opened Vortex Mystic Realm attracted countless cultivators and aquatic creatures to look for the Arcane Ink Pearl.


    The reason was to exchange for a spot to enter the mystic realm.


    But now, Zhou Feng asked such a question.


    ¡°It should be very normal to know your enemy!¡±


    The reason Zhou Feng asked such a question was very simple.


    He wanted to get some information about the Dragon Palace.


    To put it more simply, he had his eyes on the Dragon Palace.


    The Dragon Palace commanded the entire Eastern Sea, so they should have a lot of good stuff.


    Zhou Feng definitely needed a lot of ores, so he wouldn¡¯t let this chance go.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions became more casual and confident as his strength increased.


    ¡°Oh right! You don¡¯t want this corpse, do you? I¡¯ll take it if you don¡¯t want it!¡±


    As he spoke, Zhou Feng put away the true dragon corpse floating on the sea.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    The Ink Flood Dragon King didn¡¯t know what to say.


    Judging from his tone, was this person planning to cause trouble for the Dragon Palace?


    Moreover, this person put the corpse into his bag so casually. Did he not know that the true dragon blood had a special aura?


    If Zhou Feng didn¡¯t throw away the true dragon¡¯s corpse as soon as possible, the people of the Dragon Palace might be able to find Zhou Feng through the true dragon¡¯s blood¡¯s aura.


    Although he had a lot of things he wanted to say, the Ink Flood Dragon King still told Zhou Feng some information about the Dragon Palace.


    ¡°The Vortex Mystic Realm is about to open soon! There will be countless geniuses gathering there!¡±


    The Ink Flood Dragon King didn¡¯t give Zhou Feng a chance to speak after telling him some things. He slowly retreated, the blood-dripping spear in his hand not relaxing at all.


    It was obvious that the Ink Flood Dragon King was vigilant toward Zhou Feng, this person of unknown origin.


    He was still burdened with a deep blood feud and absolutely couldn¡¯t allow any accidents to happen.


    The pain of losing a child! They couldn¡¯t live under the same sky!


    ¡°Vortex Mystic Realm? Another mystic realm, eh? If that¡¯s the case, isn¡¯t this my chance?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care about the wariness in the Ink Dragon King¡¯s eyes at all.


    At that moment, what he cared about was the opening of the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    The opening of this mystic realm was a major event. Didn¡¯t this mean that the defense of other places would reduce? Wouldn¡¯t the opportunity come soon?

 Chapter 596 - Running decisively

    After Zhou Feng received the news from the Ink Flood Dragon King, he strutted around the Eastern Sea.


    He stopped and walked, stopping to observe anything special.


    It looked like he was traveling aimlessly.


    But in reality, he was making the best use of the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence.


    This was called comprehending heaven and earth. Anything in the world could give him some feedback.


    The most intuitive thing was that Zhou Feng had created a small divine ability. This small divine ability allowed him to walk freely on the surface of the sea.


    At the same time, his body was not affected by the seawater. Even if he was not familiar with the environment of the Eastern Sea, after mastering this small divine ability, he would be able to unleash 100% of his combat strength.


    The environment was a factor that affected one¡¯s strength.


    If some cultivators who had never fought on the sea suddenly came to the Eastern Sea, their strength would be reduced by at least 10%. This was because the seawater was far from being as simple as it looked.


    The boundless seawater seemed to contain some kind of special power.


    If there was no one commanding it, everything would be peaceful. However, if someone was commanding this special power, the situation would instantly be different.


    Zhou Feng felt that it was a pity that he only had this little understanding of seawater.


    He could not see through its profoundness, but even so, he was very satisfied.


    Just by putting in some effort, he was able to gain such an understanding.


    No matter what, it could be considered a profit. This bit of understanding might not be much, but it might very well cause a qualitative change if it was accumulated. Zhou Feng still understood the principle of gathering sand into a tower.


    ¡°But it¡¯s a pity! There aren¡¯t many days like this!¡±


    Just now, the AI had warned that danger was about to arrive.


    The AI was constantly using Hexadirectional Calculation to divinate the good and bad omens. From the beginning, the good and bad omens had turned into bad omens.


    And the source of the bad omen was the true dragon¡¯s corpse.


    Although using the true dragon¡¯s corpse to describe it was a bit of an exaggeration, it couldn¡¯t be denied that the corpse belonged to someone from the Dragon Palace.


    Therefore, trouble had come!


    Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky, and the sun disappeared.


    It was the usual practice for the people of the Dragon Palace to summon the clouds and rain.


    ¡°Who are you? Why do you have the smell of dragon blood on you?¡±


    Ao Xingyu lowered his eyelids and narrowed his eyes.


    ¡°Dao Enlightenment realm?¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly sensed the cultivation of the person opposite him.


    Wind and thunder accompanied his body, and there was a faint sound of thunder between each breath.


    Obviously, he had already stepped into the Dao, and he had been immersed in the great DAo of wind and thunder for a long time.


    Also, the person in front of him had a pair of dragon horns on his forehead, which was completely different from ordinary cultivators and the aquatic creatures who had taken human form.


    ¡°Are you talking about this?¡±


    Zhou Feng took out the dragon corpse.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Ao Xingyu¡¯s pupils contracted slightly when he saw the corpse, and he clenched his fists tightly.


    This was because the dragon scales on the dragon corpse had all been stripped off, leaving only the slightly white body exposed.


    Even the dragon horns and the half-dragon pearl inside the body had been removed.


    This was like having been dissected, and all the valuable things had been taken away.


    At that moment, Ao Xingyu¡¯s anger rose from the bottom of his heart.


    Such an action was simply provoking the true dragons. Moreover, not only did this person commit such a crime, but he even dared to swagger across the Eastern Sea after doing so.


    Even when facing him, he still looked indifferent.


    In Ao Xingyu¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was simply too arrogant. His entire person looked relaxed, and his face looked indifferent.


    However, judging from the aura he gave off, he was not a soft persimmon.


    ¡®A strong enemy!¡¯


    This was Ao Xingyu¡¯s judgment.


    ¡°Then can you return this corpse to me?¡±


    Ao Xingyu took a deep breath. Although his tone was stiff, there was a pleading hint in it.


    Zhou Feng did not expect this. He was actually already prepared for battle.


    This was because Zhou Feng had been like this all the way. Anyone who had some friction with him would treat him as a soft persimmon and attack him directly.


    The reputation of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace had been spread over the east ocean for a long time.


    According to the overbearing attitude of the Dragon Palace, Ao Xingyu should be so angry that he would attack him directly.


    ¡®Why is it so wrong?¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for a while and finally felt the power of a Dao Enlightenment expert.


    The days when he came to fight seemed to have passed.


    ¡°Sure!¡±


    Without thinking for too long, he directly agreed to Ao Xingyu¡¯s request.


    ¡°Thank you!¡±


    Suddenly, Ao Xingyu picked up the dragon corpse, and lightning fell from the sky.


    A true dragon was completely displayed in front of Zhou Feng.


    What followed was the combination of wind and rain and divine lightning.


    Ao Xingyu immediately turned into his original form and started to manipulate the wind and clouds. At the same time, he displayed the divine abilities of a true dragon.


    The originally majestic true dragon instantly shrunk to the size of a small snake.


    ¡°Run!¡±


    However, Ao Xingyu was creating such a huge scene just to escape.


    ¡°This!?¡±


    Upon seeing that Ao Xingyu had disappeared into the horizon, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes revealed a trace of surprise.


    He did not expect Ao Xingyu to be so decisive. It could even be said that he had completely lowered himself.


    He ran away without any hesitation.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng had no intention of letting Ao Xingyu go.


    According to Hexadirectional Calculation, if he let Ao Xingyu go just like that, the omen would turn into a great omen.


    When Zhou Feng took out the dragon corpse, he had already secretly reversed the longevity substances.


    As long as Ao Xingyu touched the dragon corpse, he would act immediately.


    However, Ao Xingyu caught him off guard.


    He did not plan to take the dragon corpse but turned and ran.


    The most important thing was that he ran very fast, disappearing in the blink of an eye.


    The true dragons could appear and disappear, be small and huge, short and long, and even ascend to the depths of the sky and summon the wind and rain.


    These were all innate divine abilities. There was no need to comprehend them as they would automatically learn them when they grew up.


    Therefore, if a true dragon really tried their best to escape, there were not many people in the same realm who could stop them.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Still, Zhou Feng was already prepared to make a move, so he made his move before Ao Xingyu completely disappeared.


    An extermination spear appeared in his palm.


    The pitch-black spear was only held in his palm, but it had already caused Zhou Feng¡¯s flesh and blood to begin to break and his blood to dissipate.


    Wisps of black gas rose, and a cold and gloomy aura appeared.


    ¡°Whoosh!¡±


    In the blink of an eye, the spear flew toward the horizon.


    This was Zhou Feng¡¯s world-shaking strike. The trajectory of the spear even formed a passage.


    The dark clouds in the sky were also separated, and a ray of light descended.


    Ao Xingyu, who had thought that he had escaped danger, only felt his breathing slightly stifled, as if a great danger was rapidly descending.

 Chapter 597 - Ruthlesss

    Zhou Feng¡¯s seemingly casual spear attack instantly caught up with Ao Xingyu, who was trying to escape.


    The moment the pitch-black spear struck Ao Xingyu, it was immediately broken, and countless strange substances scattered.


    It was as if the extermination spear had pierced through the entire sky, leaving thousands of holes.


    ¡°How is this possible!?¡±


    Ao Xingyu was instantly stunned. He had assumed Zhou Feng was powerful, but not to this extent. It seemed to be just a casual attack, but he couldn¡¯t even dodge it.


    Before this, Ao Xingyu had already sensed that something was wrong. Thus, he directly fled, catching Zhou Feng off guard. At the same time, he used his innate divine ability to shrink his entire body, trying to take the opportunity to leave.


    As long as he succeeded in escaping, he could command thousands of aquatic creatures to besiege Zhou Feng.


    Why could the Dragon Palace do whatever they wanted in the Eastern Sea?


    That was because the Eastern Sea Dragon Clan was able to command most of the aquatic tribes.


    1


    Especially when someone like Ao Xingyu with an elite dragon bloodline gave the order, most of the aquatic tribes would not refuse.


    Ao Xingyu had planned to summon numerous aquatic creatures and take advantage of the Eastern Sea environment to grind Zhou Feng to death step by step.


    As the Inspector of the Dragon Palace, Ao Xingyu was very intelligent and strong. Alas, Zhou Feng destroyed his plan with his abnormal strength.


    ¡°Soul Suppression Lock!¡±


    Ao Xingyu only felt that his entire body was being crazily corroded, and the vitality in his body was constantly being extracted.


    Those pitch-black substances were like stains that could not be washed away, hanging on his body all the time.


    However, Ao Xingyu also had a decisive side.


    A white chain started emitting a faint light and locked him firmly, and froze the anti-longevity


    substances.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ao Xingyu was given a chance to catch his breath and instinctively use his instincts to summon the wind and rain.


    With the help of the wind and rain, he completely disappeared on the surface of the sea.


    ¡°What a pity!¡±


    A trace of pity could not help but appear on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    However, he was not too disappointed. This was only the beginning.


    He needed more longevity substances and more people to slaughter.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng needed more enemies to come to his door and not himself to slaughter everywhere.


    This was also a habit of his. Being hunted down and surrounded by others would not scare him.


    On the contrary, this kind of behavior would only provide him with nutrients and contribute to his growth.


    The core point of the Heavenly Classic of Longevity was actually the longevity substances. Zhou Feng¡¯s recovery ability would not be that terrifying without the longevity substances.


    The longevity substances plus all kinds of passive skills were the root reason he was to recover.


    And the longevity substances came from many places. It could even be said that the entire world had longevity substances.


    Among them, the cultivators had the most longevity substances.


    In particular, the higher the cultivation base of the cultivator, the more longevity substances there were in the body.


    When cultivating to the depths, regardless of whether the cultivator was willing or passive, the body would always lock part of the longevity substances.


    There were even some cultivators who didn¡¯t need to deliberately absorb the longevity substances. Once they comprehended the Dao, the longevity substances would swarm over.


    ¡°And it¡¯s been a long time since I¡¯ve been passive! I can¡¯t wait to gain a new passive skill!¡±


    Zhou Feng hoped that the Dragon Palace would take revenge even more fiercely. The more violent the revenge of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace was, the faster the progress bar on the skill panel would increase.


    He wasn¡¯t used to not obtaining a passive skill for a while.


    ¡­


    At this time, the situation in the entire Eastern Sea was changing, and countless cultivators appeared one after another.


    The matter of the Vortex Mystic Realm attracted the attention of countless people.


    At the same time, the Spirit Filling Convention of the Daemon League went very smoothly, and several Spiritual Veins became land, merging with the easternmost region.


    If nothing unexpected happened, the easternmost region was about to have one more piece of land, and the Eastern Sea was also about to have one less piece of land.


    The conflict between the Daemon League and the Dragon Palace was getting more and more serious.


    But all of this seemed to have nothing to do with Zhou Feng.


    He was still drifting somewhere in the Eastern Sea. During the day, he went everywhere to comprehend heaven and earth; at night, he returned to the Arcane Ink Space to rest.


    Zhou Feng was now fully focused on comprehending the great Dao. When he was tired, he had Ge Li warm his bed.


    This kind of life was simply too comfortable. The only thing that was not beautiful was the fact that the longevity substances on his Fate Wheel were decreasing at a crazy rate.


    No matter what he was doing, Zhou Feng could not do without the longevity substances now.


    Therefore, the amount of longevity substances that he had accumulated at the Bottom of the Abyss was severely depleted.


    Zhou Feng was not worried about this because Ao Xingyu had already made a comeback.


    He sat cross-legged on the surface of the sea. There were strands of flowing light floating on his body, and a terrifying aura was constantly being released.


    The originally turbulent surface of the sea had now become much calmer.


    Under the sea¡¯s calm surface, countless shrimp soldiers and crab generals began to gather.


    ¡°Is this person really that powerful?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I¡¯ve never heard of this person before.¡±


    There were two more people beside Ao Xingyu. Both of them had a pair of dragon horns on their heads, and they looked a little childish.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be careless! The two of you will come with me later. Don¡¯t run around!¡±


    Compared to the last time, Ao Xingyu did not look good now.


    If it was said that when Zhou Feng met Ao Xingyu, the latter was in high spirits, he was now in low spirits. He did not have any energy at all.


    ¡®What exactly are these things?¡¯


    The anti-longevity substances had hit Ao Xingyu, and the vitality in his body was being drained away crazily.


    At the same time, he actually felt a trace of fatigue, as if he was getting older.


    It was only a brief encounter, but he had almost died in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands.


    This encounter scared and scarred Ao Xingyu.


    Given his condition, he would definitely lose his position if anyone found out.


    In fact, the true dragon bloodline in Ao Xingyu¡¯s body was not so pure. Being able to be the Dragon Palace¡¯s Inspector was completely due to his hard work and strength.


    If his current condition was discovered, he might not be able to stay as an Inspector for long.


    Ao Xingyu did not want to lose this lucrative job.


    1


    Therefore, he had lied. After returning to the Dragon Palace, he asked for help and said that he had encountered a strong enemy and wanted to borrow the Tide-Controlling Flag to heal his injuries.


    The Tide-Controlling Flag was one of the few common dao artifacts of the East Sea Dragon Palace.


    All the Inspectors of the Dragon Palace could temporarily borrow this dao artifact.


    The purpose was to deal with all kinds of troublemakers in the Eastern Sea so as to safeguard the Dragon Palace¡¯s dignity.


    Besides being able to control the sea, the Tide-Controlling Flag was also excellent in defense and treatment.


    Ao Xingyu¡¯s idea was to use the Tide-Controlling Flag to stabilize his current injuries and not worsen them.


    As for the two people next to him, it was an accident.


    These two people were two direct descendants of the Dragon Palace. When Ao Xingyu borrowed the Tide-Controlling Flag, they happened to find out.


    Thus, they insisted on coming out to have a look.


    Ao Xingyu could not refuse because it would easily arouse suspicion once he refused.


    This kind of thing had happened a few times before, so it was relatively common.


    Just now, Ao Xingyu was telling these two people not to leave his sight.


    ¡°Sorry for the trouble!¡±


    Ao Xingyu knew that the two little ancestors in front of him would definitely not let people feel at ease.


    If he were not careful, an accident would happen.


    And when that time came, no matter what happened, he would not be able to escape responsibility.


    Upon thinking of this, a hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed across Ao Xingyu¡¯s eyes.

 Chapter 598 - Tidal Wave Formation

    Ao Xingyu knew that he could not expose his serious injuries.


    At the same time, he could not let anything happen to the two little ancestors in front of him.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s unfathomable strength made him not dare to relax even a little.


    Therefore, Ao Xingyu raised the Tide-Controlling Flag.


    Instantly, endless seawater was mobilized and formed a water prison.


    The two little ancestors in front of him were immediately trapped.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Before the two little ancestors could react, Ao Xingyu had already started to retreat crazily with the two of them.


    Just now, his intuition told him that danger was about to arrive.


    If he did not leave quickly, he would not escape the disaster.


    This was a special sensing divine ability, and it was also an innate ability of the true dragon bloodline.


    An innate divine ability like danger perception would come with a slightly stronger bloodline.


    This was because, with this ability, one could ensure their survival rate and better ensure the continuation of the bloodline to the next generation.


    The more terrifying the bloodline, the more powerful this ability would be.


    This was the fruit of the efforts of the ancestral true dragons.


    Therefore, the level of one¡¯s birth could easily affect the upper limit of a dragon. It was very rare for the weak to overcome the upper limit.


    Such a situation was even more serious in the Central Plains. It was basically impossible for ordinary bloodlines to win against those monsters.


    It was a difficult thing to have a low background and insufficient talent and then want to make a comeback.


    It was even more difficult to challenge those with higher cultivation levels.


    Those old monsters who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years would not be so easily overturned.


    After all, these old monsters had heaven-defying talent, and they had cultivated for such a long time.


    The lower-level people absolutely should not challenge the upper-level people. This was an iron rule for many cultivators.


    Ao Xingyu had foreseen the danger at this time and immediately thought that Zhou Feng was one of those monsters with terrifying strength.


    Therefore, he changed his mind at the first moment.


    Not only did he retreat frantically, but he also took out a Crystal Palace.


    This Crystal Palace was also the standard dao artifact of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace. Not only was it indestructible, but it could also be used to hide soldiers.


    The space inside was enough to accommodate 10,000 soldiers.


    Next, Ao Xingyu used the Tide-Controlling Flag to give orders and summon the nearby aquatic tribes to surround Zhou Feng.


    Ao Xingyu was an experienced Dao Enlightenment dragon.


    He did not dare to underestimate Zhou Feng, even though he looked like he was only in the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    2


    Therefore, the originally peaceful Eastern Sea instantly began to riot.


    Countless aquatic creatures heard the call of the Dragon Palace.


    ¡­


    ¡°Is this¡­ the call of the Eastern Ocean Dragon Palace? How long has it been since I¡¯ve heard it?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure! But there are still people who dare to provoke the Dragon Palace?¡±


    ¡°Yes! Didn¡¯t the ink Flood Dragon King reappear recently?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    Some aquatic creatures who hadn¡¯t fully taken their human form gathered one by one.


    This was because this was an ancient agreement. Once they heard the call of the Dragon Palace, they had to go to the destination to assist the Dragon Palace and encircle the Dragon Palace¡¯s enemies.


    After the task was completed, the Dragon Palace also had to give a corresponding reward.


    The tribes of every aquatic creature that had died had to receive compensation.


    However, the Dragon Palace only needed to pay some Spirit Stones to send these aquatic creatures away.


    After all, these aquatic creatures only played a supporting role and could not be the main attacker.


    ¡°Great! If I can take this opportunity to get a few more Spirit Stones, then I can break through!¡±


    ¡°Maybe I can take the opportunity to pick up some good things!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    Faced with this sudden call, most of the aquatic creatures were very excited.


    This was a good thing for them.


    According to tradition, they were only in a formation to do nothing.


    They could get a reward from the Dragon Palace for doing nothing. At the same time, if someone was unlucky and died on the spot, others could seize their possessions.


    They would have one less competitor. No matter how they looked at it, it was worth it.


    1


    Therefore, countless aquatic creatures formed a circle and surrounded Zhou Feng.


    Without even needing to speak, these aquatic creatures formed a formation.


    All of this was thanks to the Tide-Controlling Flag in Ao Xingyu¡¯s hands. Relying on the Tide-Controlling Flag, he was able to spread all kinds of information in the Eastern Sea.


    He was also able to rely on the Tide-Controlling Flag to roughly control these aquatic creatures, allowing them to form the simplest Tidal Wave Formation.


    Tidal Wave Formation!


    This was a formation that almost all aquatic creatures knew. As long as they lived in the Eastern Sea, they would be able to learn it when they were young.


    The difficulty of learning it was low, and the power they needed to contribute was insignificant.


    If only a few aquatic creatures formed the Tidal Wave Formation, they would only set off waves and would not have any power at all.


    However, if the aquatic creatures exceeded 100, these waves would turn into huge waves and would not stop.


    Simply put, this formation required quantitative changes to cause qualitative changes.


    The Dragon Palace could become the overlord of the Eastern Sea because it could command a large number of aquatic creatures to use the Tidal Wave Formation together.


    When hundreds of thousands of aquatic creatures used the Tidal Wave Formation together, the effect was no different than a natural disaster. Even Dao Enlightenment experts would find it difficult to resist a natural disaster.


    This was because this natural disaster could last for a very long time. A few days and nights at the very least.


    Just the consumption alone could exhaust someone to death.


    And if one dared to fly into the sky, they would be even more doomed.


    True dragons were especially good at summoning wind and rain. Once someone flew into the sky, they would regret their decision.


    The wind and rain would definitely be accompanied by thunder and lightning. On one side, there would be a howling gale, and on the other side, there would be thunder and lightning.


    There were also endless waves below. In this part of the Eastern Sea, fighting against the Dragon Palace alone was impossible.


    They had the geographical advantage!


    However, even though he had such an advantage, Ao Xingyu still felt that something was not right.


    ¡®Why is the unease in my heart getting bigger and bigger?¡¯


    Ao Xingyu was somewhat puzzled. Right now, he could be said to be in the right place at the right time.


    However, the depths of his bloodline still warned him that he was in grave danger.


    This was somewhat unreasonable. Under such circumstances, even an Ascendant might not be able to kill him.


    He had invoked the Tidal Wave Formation and summoned the Crystal Palace behind, so what exactly could threaten him!?


    Ao Xingyu could not figure out what was going on.


    Just as Ao Xingyu was in a state of unease, Zhou Feng was also facing an endless battle of attrition.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    From the beginning, the surrounding seawater began to pulsate irregularly, and all kinds of large waves pounced on him from all directions.


    These huge waves only targeted one person, and that was Zhou Feng.


    Under normal circumstances, these large waves should have struck from one side to the other, but now they were coming from all directions.


    And that was not all. Zhou Feng suddenly felt the seawater beneath his feet become heavy.


    That feeling was as if someone was constantly pulling him down.


    A rainstorm! It also came out of nowhere.


    Every drop of this rain was very heavy, and it also carried a trace of special melting power.


    Almost in the blink of an eye, Zhou Feng felt the arrival of a natural disaster. Dark clouds covered the sky above him, and countless huge waves came crashing down at his feet.


    Loneliness! Insignificance! All kinds of negative feelings welled up in his heart.

 Chapter 599 - Boldness

    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt as if he had entered a special state.


    This lonely feeling did not make him feel afraid. On the contrary, it made him feel very comfortable, even if every raindrop from the sky was very heavy.


    Countless huge waves were crazily hitting him.


    ¡°Kill! Kill! Kill!¡±


    The shouts of killing approached from afar. At first, he could not hear them clearly, but as time passed, the shouts of killing became more and more obvious.


    It felt as if thousands of soldiers and horses were crazily charging at Zhou Feng.


    Just the momentum alone created a feeling of destruction.


    This was the power of the Tidal Wave Formation. It gathered countless aquatic creatures and used the Tide-Controlling Flag as its core.


    It formed a crude super-formation that pressed down on people step by step, making them unable to resist.


    Moreover, it was not an easy thing to break this formation.


    In order to break the Tidal Wave Formation, one had to have extraordinary endurance and be able to withstand the consumption.


    One also had to endure the erosion of the heavy water at all times.


    The Tide-Controlling Flag was able to convert the huge amount of seawater into heavy water, which would then be mixed in the rainstorm.


    If one was not careful, they would be hit by the heavy water.


    The crucial point was that maintaining the Tidal Wave Formation did not require much energy.


    The Tidal Wave Formation was basically borrowing power and then using the many aquatic creatures to offset the huge consumption.


    Therefore, for Ao Xingyu, it did not take much energy to control the Tidal Wave Formation.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s this person!¡±


    ¡°He doesn¡¯t have any more energy!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng was slowly feeling this special state, some of the aquatic creatures controlled the tide to come nearby.


    This was because Zhou Feng was sitting cross-legged on the sea¡¯s surface, and he even closed his eyes.


    This made these aquatic creatures mistakenly think that Zhou Feng was injured and that he was recuperating.


    Therefore, they shouted at the first moment, wanting to get rid of Zhou Feng.


    However, there were still quite a number of smart fellows among this group of aquatic creatures.


    Although they shouted very actively, their bodies did not move at all.


    Instead, they used their peripheral vision to scan their surroundings.


    Old Blind was one of them. As a very ordinary aquatic creature, he had lost an eye due to his impulsiveness in the early years.


    ¡®If this person still has some strength left, then I will run as soon as possible!¡¯


    He would not do anything risky.


    After all, he had participated in the Tidal Wave Formation, so he had gained something.


    When the time came, as long as he received the reward from the Dragon Palace, he would be able to find another partner.


    Perhaps Big Fatty Zhu would agree to his request.


    Old Blind was thinking as he quietly stepped back.


    Under the encouragement of his words, there were indeed some aquatic creatures in the surroundings.


    However, just as these aquatic creatures approached Zhou Feng, their heads seemed to have been forcefully torn off by an invisible hand.


    Fresh blood dyed the surface of the sea red.


    An invincible aura strengthened bit by bit.


    The enormous pressure caused everyone around to moan slowly. No one was able to straighten their backs at all.


    All of them were lying on the surface of the sea, their faces filled with shock.


    Suddenly, a huge wave hit Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change. This huge wave contained a large amount of heavy water.


    The terrifying impact was comparable to the impact of a train, but he was completely fine.


    Instead, he took advantage of this opportunity to harvest lives crazily.


    All the aquatic creatures around him were being harvested crazily.


    This was Origin Drain. By forcefully extracting vitality, Blood Qi, and longevity substances, it achieved the effect of killing.


    However, this move was only effective on enemies with a weaker cultivation base. If they were at the Divine Ability realm or above, this move would not have the effect of killing them in an instant.


    It could be said that this move was specifically used to deal with the ants that surrounded and attacked him.


    Most importantly, he obtained a large amount of longevity substances through this method.


    These aquatic creatures had cultivation bases, and their bodies contained longevity substances.


    There were also all kinds of chaotic Blood Qi and heterogenous Spiritual Qi.


    All of them were packed together and stored in Zhou Feng¡¯s body and then transformed into pure Spiritual Qi.


    Finally, they became the nourishment of the Longevity bloodline.


    Ever since the Longevity bloodline was condensed, almost all of the Spiritual Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body was devoured.


    Moreover, the Longevity bloodline was a bottomless pit that could not be filled no matter how hard he tried.


    Zhou Feng himself did not know what had happened to his body.


    In any case, when he thought about it, his body would burst out with endless power.


    He did not need to be able to mobilize it; even the power of his soul was the same.


    The condensed Fate Wheel controlled everything.


    Before he received the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even know how to raise his cultivation level.


    Now, he had some idea, which was to feed the Longevity bloodline first.


    The aquatic creatures in front of him were like nourishment. Each and every life was harvested, and he devoured all the useful materials contained in them.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    ¡°What the hell Is this!?¡±


    ¡°What happened?¡±


    In contrast, there were countless terrified voices.


    Many excited aquatic creatures died here without knowing why.


    They didn¡¯t see Zhou Feng use any methods at all.


    It was as if an invisible god of death was reaping their lives.


    Old Blind, who had calculated perfectly, also died here.


    Before dying, Old Blind was even very proud of himself.


    Because compared to the other impulsive aquatic creatures, he was simply too smart.


    But in the face of this indiscriminate killing, before Old Blind could react, he was already gone.


    The passive Interacial Killer was playing a role as well!


    Zhou Feng experienced the pleasure of rapidly increasing his strength.


    As Zou Feng continued killing, a trace of murderous aura perfectly fused into his body.


    At the same time, a trace of the great Dao¡¯s law followed.


    ¡®The Dao of Slaughter!?¡¯


    Following this trace of murderous aura, Zhou Feng comprehended the Dao of Slaughter.


    Taking advantage of this excellent opportunity, he worked hard to comprehend the great Dao of Slaughter.


    The Dao of Slaughter was the best law among the 3,000 great Daos.


    Cultivators who had comprehended the Dao of Slaughter were all madmen who killed as many people as they could. In terms of combat, they were absolutely monstrous.


    Although Zhou Feng lacked some talent in comprehending the Dao of Slaughter, he still managed to comprehend some things by relying on the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence.


    Hiding his killing intent!


    From now on, every strike of his would hide that intense killing intent, making it impossible for people to react.


    All the cultivators who had comprehended the Dao of Slaughter were top-notch experts in slaughter.


    Killing silently should be considered the most basic of the basics.


    ¡°Every passive skill should correspond to a law of a great Dao¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng had a flash of inspiration and instantly thought of his passive skills.


    Comprehending the laws of the great Daos through passive skills seemed feasible!


    After all, these passive skills were not created out of thin air but corresponded to different laws of a Great Dao.


    ¡°So I should be braver?¡±


    At that moment, shocking killing intent exploded from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.

 Chapter 600 - The One and Only Chosen One!

    ¡°How is this possible? What kind of monster is this!?¡±


    Ao Xingyu, who was hundreds of miles away, instantly sensed that something was wrong.


    Through the sensing of the Tide-Controlling Flag, he found that many of the aquatic creatures in the Tidal Wave Formation were disappearing one by one.


    He had not received any response either.


    To put it simply, these aquatic creatures had already died.


    That was why Ao Xingyu had cried out in surprise.


    Zhou Feng actually had the ability to resist in the Tidal Wave Formation.


    Under normal circumstances, the Tidal Wave Formation should have ruthlessly suppressed him.


    Then, little by little, he would be worn down by the heavy water until he became minced meat.


    However, the current situation seemed to be a little different. Zhou Feng not only resisted the pressure of the Tidal Wave Formation but also counterattacked.


    The Tidal Wave Formation that had just been formed was on the verge of collapse.


    One had to know that although the Tidal Wave Formation used the Tide-Controlling Flag as its core, the tens of thousands of aquatic creatures were the key.


    If nothing unexpected happened, the Tidal Wave Formation would reach its full potential as more and more aquatic creatures joined the formation.


    The Tidal Wave Formation would become more and more terrifying, and its center would become a world-destroying grindstone.


    It would crush everything in the center.


    Ao Xingyu could also use a trace of the Tidal Wave Formation¡¯s power to wash away the strange black substance in his body.


    One had to know that Ao Xingyu still had the remnants of the anti-longevity substances on his body.


    The anti-longevity substances could not be washed away completely. Only by relying on the powerful power of the Tidal Wave Formation could it be completely washed away.


    ¡°It¡¯s over!¡±


    However, before Ao Xingyu could continue to use his little brain, a unique aura had already locked on to him.


    After sensing this unique aura, Ao Xingyu¡¯s face instantly paled. He knew that what he had done could no longer be concealed.


    Ao Xingyu was a little regretful at this moment. After meeting Zhou Feng, he should have reported his findings to the Dragon Palace.


    He had thought of taking a chance before, even though he thought Zhou Feng was very strong.


    But it should not have been difficult to deal with Zhou Feng with the Tide-Controlling Flag in hand and the Tidal Wave Formation.


    Ao Xingyu had even personally imprisoned the two little ancestors who had come out of the Dragon Palace to avoid accidents.


    He had also retreated a hundred miles for his own absolute safety. If something went wrong, Ao Xingyu could have run away immediately.


    Including his decisive escape earlier, Ao Xingyu had shown enough decisiveness and wit.


    But in the end, he still misjudged Zhou Feng¡¯s strength. He was simply a super monster.


    He completely ignored the Tidal Wave Formation.


    This was not the worst part. The worst part was that the Black Prince actually came.


    That unique aura belonged to the Black Prince, the most special person in the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace.


    ¡®Is it because of the collapse of the formation?¡¯


    Ao Xingyu thought for a moment and felt that the Black Prince must have come because of the Tide-Controlling Flag.


    The Eastern Sea Dragon Palace had a total of four Tide-Controlling Flags, and these four Tide-Controlling Flags would form Tidal Wave Formations.


    However, two of the four Tide-Controlling Flags were in the hands of the Dragon King, and the other two were in the hands of the Black Prince.


    The Black Prince had rushed over at this time probably because the Tidal Wave Formation had collapsed.


    As a large number of aquatic creatures had fallen, the Tidal Wave Formation that had just been summoned had directly collapsed.


    The Tide-Controlling Flag was the core of the formation, so it naturally sensed something. Thus, the true owner of the Tide-Controlling Flag was attracted.


    After all, no matter how one looked at it, one had to be a mighty figure to be able to cause the Tidal Wave Formation to collapse.


    The Black Prince, who realized that something was wrong, naturally rushed over at the first moment.


    ¡°But it¡¯s good!¡±


    The pale Ao Xingyu quickly calmed down because this was also a good thing. At least he did not have to face that monster.


    As long as the Black Prince descended, the situation would be reversed.


    No matter how strong Zhou Feng was, he could not compare to the Black Prince.


    And even if Ao Xingyu was punished in the end, his life wouldn¡¯t be in danger.


    Nothing had happened to those two little ancestors. The best outcome was that nothing bad happened.


    ¡°Expert?¡±


    Although the Black Prince hadn¡¯t arrived yet, even Zhou Feng, who was hundreds of miles away, could feel a trace of the unique aura.


    Faintly, a violent and bloodthirsty aura came from the horizon.


    The Longevity bloodline in Zhou Feng¡¯s body trembled slightly as if it was emitting a desire.


    ¡°It can actually stimulate the Longevity bloodline?¡±


    This situation had never happened before.


    ¡­


    The heavily injured Ao Xingyu received a slap and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    However, Ao Xingyu did not dare to have any expression of complaint at this moment. He could only lower his head and silently endure it.


    A man in black armor stood not far away.


    This man exuded a special power. There was clearly no one around him.


    However, he gave off a terrifying feeling that as long as this man gave the order, he would be able to flatten everything around him.


    His face was like a jade sculpture, and his demeanor betrayed he was a proud darling of the world. It was as if the sun in the sky was being compared to him.


    This was one of the few people in the Eastern Sea who could be called a chosen one.


    The Black Prince of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace! He was also the only person who did not have the bloodline of the current Dragon King yet could be called a prince.


    ¡°Speak!¡± the Black Prince said coldly as he glanced at Ao Xingyu indifferently.


    Ao Xingyu felt that even breathing became difficult.


    In his eyes, the Black Prince was still surrounded by the sun, moon, and stars. The terrifying power that suppressed the world distorted the laws of the stars.


    ¡°It¡¯s like this¡­¡±


    Ao Xingyu did not dare to hesitate and immediately began to tell everything that he had encountered.


    Meanwhile, the Black Prince listened quietly, playing with the Tide-Controlling Flag in his hand.


    However, a muffled sound began to ring out not long after Ao Xingyu opened his mouth.


    It was the sound of a heartbeat, but at this time, it was like a big drum beating between heaven and earth.


    ¡°What a domineering aura! And it even has a trace of an ancient flavor!¡±


    Zhou Feng directly walked over along with this domineering aura.


    The Black Prince and Zhou Feng looked into each other¡¯s eyes.


    It was only the first time the two of them met, and their battle intent rushed up to the clouds like a raging fire.


    What Zhou Feng thought in his heart was very simple¡ªhe had finally met a true opponent.


    Before this, he had been in a state of invincibility for a very long time.


    The success of condensing the Longevity bloodline and all sorts of passive bonuses allowed Zhou Feng¡¯s strength to increase by leaps and bounds. Over time, the so-called genius cultivators of the Eastern Land were unable to withstand a single blow in his eyes.


    The feeling of not having an opponent was indeed very uncomfortable.


    Now, he finally understood that if there wasn¡¯t an evenly matched opponent to set off the show, how could it highlight his cultivation?


    But now, he had finally found an opponent.


    ¡°Your body¡­ has the smell of dragon blood!¡±


    The Black Prince¡¯s gaze suddenly changed because he could smell the smell of dragon blood from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Although it was not the purest dragon blood, it also meant that Zhou Feng¡¯s hands were not clean.


    At this moment, Zhou Feng felt that the entire world had undergone a slight change. This feeling was as if his existence repulsed this world.

 Chapter 601 - True Body: Yazi

    As the Black Prince stared at Zhou Feng, the latter felt a wave of pressure pressing down on him.


    Even the entire world seemed to start to dislike him.


    This was something that Zhou Feng had never experienced before. This was the first time he felt that this world was rejecting him.


    Under normal circumstances, this world would not target anyone, but there would always be some people who would receive the favor of the laws of the great Dao.


    All kinds of special physiques and strong people with heaven-defying luck were representatives of being favored by the world.


    And there were also some people who were hated by the world because they had done some things.


    Now, Zhou Feng felt a kind of malice targeting him from all directions.


    ¡°Just a glare?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change, completely unaffected by this malice.


    What he was more concerned about was the background of this person in front of him and why such a simple glare had caused him to suffer the malicious intent from heaven and earth.


    ¡°Dao Essence realm? So many traces of the great Daos? What kind of bones and muscles are these?¡±


    Black Prince¡¯s eyes suddenly turned golden.


    His invisible gaze immediately turned into dazzling light, and he wanted to dig out all of Zhou Feng¡¯s secrets.


    Especially after seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s muscles and bones, a strong feeling of jealousy gushed out.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt that the malice he was bearing was even greater.


    There was also that undisguised feeling of jealousy, like a huge wave hitting his body in waves.


    When Ao Xingyu saw this, he immediately seized the opportunity because he knew that the Black Prince had already targeted Zhou Feng.


    Thus, Ao Xingyu grabbed the two frightened little ancestors and immediately disappeared into the horizon.


    His speed and decisiveness in escaping were not inferior to his previous performance.


    Zhou Feng could not help but glance at Ao Xingyu, who had disappeared into the horizon.


    He had a very deep impression of this person. No one had ever been able to escape from his hands twice.


    If he remembered correctly, Ao Xingyu was the first person to escape from him twice in a row.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    The Black Prince seized his distraction and made a move.


    When he had not moved before, the Black Prince¡¯s body had already emitted a suffocating aura, suppressing him until he could not move.


    Now that he moved, a gargantuan torrent was released, and his surging killing intent was like the collapse of the heavens.


    The Black Prince pursued the Great Dao of Slaughter. The surging killing intent transformed into thousands of soldiers and surged down.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally would not make such a low-level mistake. Although he was distracted just now, most of his attention was on Black Prince.


    Otherwise, it would be impossible for Ao Xingyu to escape from his eyes.


    The Invincible Avatar slowly appeared.


    A sense of loneliness that was invincible in the world was slowly released.


    In the blink of an eye, the Black Prince¡¯s attack was easily blocked.


    After this period of tempering, his Invincible Avatar became more and more mysterious. Usually, he did not summon it.


    But at this moment, it perfectly displayed how invincible the avatar was.


    Although his Invincible Avatar was still just an illusion, as long as this illusion appeared, it was as if everything in the world was not worth mentioning.


    ¡°Invincible Avatar You actually dared to condense an Invincible Avatar? Who gave you the courage?¡±


    The Black Prince¡¯s jealousy was stimulated. He was originally a narrow-minded person who liked to fight and be ruthless.


    Now that he encountered a cultivator that dared to condense an Invincible Avatar, Black Prince naturally went all out.


    As mentioned earlier, the Invincible Avatar was the easiest to hate.


    Among cultivators, who dared to claim that they were invincible?


    As long as others encountered a cultivator that dared to condense an Invincible Avatar, they would have the urge to destroy it.


    No one wished for anyone to be above them.


    Especially those old monsters who had lived for a long time, they could not bear to see an Invincible Avatar.


    The Human Emperors who had suppressed the world back then could not be said to be invincible, yet Zhou Feng dared to condense an Invincible Avatar and display it?


    This could only be said to be admiration for Zhou Feng¡¯s courage.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had also realized this, so he rarely displayed the Invincible Avatar. Only when he truly wanted to kill would he display it.


    This was because everyone present had to die once the Invincible Avatar appeared.


    ¡°What right do you have!?¡± the Black Prince questioned fiercely.


    At the same time, the Black Prince also fully displayed his true form.


    Under such circumstances, he could no longer hide his strength. He had to use all his power to kill this arrogant person in front of him.


    As a result, the Black Prince changed from a handsome man to a monster with a wolf¡¯s body and a dragon¡¯s head.


    He clearly did not have the body of a true dragon, but a pure and ancient aura of a true dragon assaulted Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    ¡°Yazi?¡±


    Zhou Feng recognized him immediately.


    Wasn¡¯t this the second son of the legendary Nine Sons of a Dragon, Yazi?


    It was said that dragons gave birth to nine sons, but the sons were different. The second son was like a wolf with dragon horns. He had a strong personality, was brave, good at fighting, and bloodthirsty.


    No wonder Ao Xingyu did not dare to resist at that time.


    Although Yazi did not have a pure body of a true dragon, he was much purer than those so-called true dragons with impure bloodlines.


    That¡¯s right! Black Prince¡¯s original body was that of a Yazi, and he had been sleeping in the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    It was not until the last time the Vortex Mystic Realm was opened that the people of the Dragon Palace discovered him.


    Then, the Black Prince became a member of the Dragon Palace and even controlled two Tide-Controlling Flags.


    However, because of his high standards, he did not care about the so-called true dragons in the Dragon Palace.


    Only the Dragon King was worthy of his attention, so he was secretly rejected by the Dragon Palace.


    For example, the Black Prince was faintly rejected when the Vortex Mystic Realm was opened.


    It was also because of this that the Black Prince discovered the feedback from the Tide-Controlling Flag.


    ¡°Today is the day you die! Even if you are a heaven¡¯s favorite from the Central Plains, you can¡¯t escape!¡±


    The Black Prince transformed into a Yazi. He held a treasured sword in his mouth, carried the two Tide-Controlling Flags on his back, and glared at Zhou Feng.


    His boiling killing intent formed an army of tens of thousands of soldiers.


    A large black mass appeared on the horizon. Just looking at it made one¡¯s heart tremble.


    ¡°The chosen one of the Central Plains?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not explain himself because his battle intent was already boiling. The strength of this person in front of him was not inferior to his at all.


    As soon as he finished speaking, he used the Longevity Steps, and his physical body immediately began to wither.


    Like before, the Longevity Step¡¯s side effects on the body were glaring.


    However, the effect was also extremely good.


    Zhou Feng seemed to take a step forward, and in the next instant, he arrived in front of the Black Prince.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    The Black Prince did not expect Zhou Feng to arrive in front of him with a single step.


    ¡°Receive my punch!¡±

 Chapter 602 - The Battle Began!

    Even though the Black Prince had overestimated Zhou Feng, he was still shocked.


    Zhou Feng had arrived too quickly, completely ignoring all restrictions.


    This feeling was like opening a spatial door and walking in front of you.


    The surrounding energy suppression was completely useless, not giving any chance to react.


    As expected, Zhou Feng punched the Black Prince¡¯s body.


    A muffled sound reverberated through the clouds, and a violent air current spread wildly in all directions.


    ¡°Wah!¡±


    The Black Prince could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his body rapidly charged downward.


    Meanwhile, the injuries on Zhou Feng¡¯s body were also gradually recovering. The injuries caused by the Longevity Steps completely disappeared in the blink of an eye.


    If someone saw this scene, they would definitely be in an uproar.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had already exceeded the normal level of the Dao Enlightenment realm.


    After all, the opponent had the Yazi bloodline, the purest true dragon bloodline from ancient times.


    Not to mention that the Black Prince had already stepped into the Dao Comprehension realm, the third step. He was ready to ascend at any time and break through to the Ascendance realm.


    ¡®What great Dao is he pursuing!?¡¯


    As his body descended rapidly, the Black Prince was trying to figure out which Dao Zhou Feng was pursuing.


    At first, he thought that he could roughly see what great Dao Zhou Feng was pursuing.


    But now, he realized that what Zhou Feng was displaying was really too messy.


    Moreover, he couldn¡¯t understand it. For example, there were some traces of the great Dao of Space in the Longevity Steps, but it didn¡¯t seem like it.


    What was the background of such a character? Why did he appear in the Eastern Sea?


    As an ancient heaven¡¯s favorite who had been sealed here since ancient times, the Black Prince naturally knew some secrets.


    He knew that since ancient times, some heaven¡¯s favorites had sealed themselves one after another.


    The reason was to wait for a great battle, a truly golden age.


    In that golden age, the bottleneck would be loosened, and the shackles restraining countless heaven¡¯s favorites would disappear.


    At that time, they would be able to surpass the realm the first Human Emperor had reached.


    In order for the golden age to come, countless powers had even joined forces.


    The Central Plains had also been formed at that time!


    Otherwise, the Central Plains would not have become like this, absorbing the essence of the other four regions.


    The Central Plains was originally the core region where the Human Emperor tribe was located.


    However, after the last Human Emperor¡¯s death, countless mighty figures razed it to the ground. Even the underground Spiritual Veins had been extracted.


    In this instant, Black Prince thought of many things.


    However, before that, he had to let Zhou Feng experience what it meant to be a peerless genius!


    The Black Prince stabilized his body and barked, ¡°Impudent!¡±


    The soldiers that had been accumulating in the sky all rushed toward Zhou Feng.


    The world rumbled!


    The soldiers formed by the Slaughter Qi were boiling with killing intent as if they wanted to make Zhou Feng¡¯s blood splatter in the sky.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng only shouted.


    His vast and enormous Blood Qi started to spread out, wiping out all the soldiers.


    Then, the Extermination Qi condensed into armor.


    At the same time, he threw four spirit beans.


    The divine ability Bean Soldiers had naturally become a part of the Heavenly Classic of Longevity after this period of study.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s longevity substances nourished the four spirit beans daily.


    After a long period of nourishment, these spirit beans gradually gained spirituality. At the same time, they were different from the one-time dao soldiers from before.


    These longevity soldiers that were nourished by the longevity substances actually broke through the restrictions due to the uniqueness of the longevity substances.


    They directly gained self-growth and could fight on their own.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had not used them because he was worried that they would be damaged.


    Now, he could come out for a trial and use them to fight against the miscellaneous soldiers that were condensed from the killing intent.


    Immediately, the four spirit beans expanded with the wind and transformed into four awe-inspiring divine generals.


    These four immortal divine generals were all wearing battle armor, with longbows on their backs and long spears in their hands.


    ¡°Wind and rain follow!¡±


    The Black Prince was not willing to be outdone. The two Tide-Controlling Flags on his back immediately emitted a faint light.


    In an instant, the originally turbulent sea surface became even more restless.


    The endless seawater actually began to flow backward.


    The seawater that flowed backward seemed to pour into the nine heavens, forming numerous water tornadoes.


    For a time, the entire sky once again became turbulent.


    The Black Prince¡¯s body also displayed an aura that could swallow mountains and rivers. The treasured sword in his mouth surged with black flames.


    His main focus was the Great Dao of Slaughter, but the dragon blood flowing within his body contained the Great Dao of Thunderstorm.


    Just by preparing to attack, the entire world had changed, becoming the Black Prince¡¯s most comfortable environment.


    On the contrary, Zhou Feng only had the Invincible Avatar to forcibly prop up an area of the sky.


    In terms of the changes to the world, he was not as powerful as the Black Prince.


    This gave Zhou Feng some enlightenment. Changing the world seemed to be a method to use the great Dao.


    The entire sky had turned completely black. Not a single ray of light penetrated through the clouds.


    However, a clap of thunder illuminated this pitch-black world.


    At this moment, the Black Prince also arrived in front of Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng felt as if his body was about to be torn into two pieces.


    ¡°Now!¡±


    However, this was the opportunity he had been waiting for. His eyes were bloodshot as he gathered all the strength in his body into one point.


    He threw another earth-shattering punch!


    The thick layer of clouds was broken once again.


    However, this time, it did not hit the Black Prince¡¯s actual body.


    What he hit was an illusion formed from seawater?


    ¡°You¡¯ve been tricked!¡±


    The Black Prince¡¯s emotionless voice sounded from behind Zhou Feng.


    Although the voice came from behind him, the attack came from above his head.


    A bolt of lightning struck Zhou Feng¡¯s body before the voice could reach his ears.


    The Dao of Slaughter! The control of killing intent was the most accurate.


    All cultivators who cultivated the Dao of Slaughter were able to conceal their movements very well.


    They could even confuse the opponent, making them think the attack would come from behind when it would come from another direction.


    Just now, the Black Prince had used such a small trick.


    In terms of battle experience, Zhou Feng could not catch up to the Black Prince.


    After all, Black Prince was born in ancient times and had fought countless times.


    ¡°Amazing!¡±


    1


    However, Zhou Feng did not show any anxiety on his face at this time. Instead, he praised him.


    This praise was sincere. After all, to be able to hide from the AI and Hexadirectional Calculation¡¯s prediction, this technique was truly too amazing.


    However, it was just a single mistake, and he could completely endure it.


    The Dao of Longevity! Its strongest aspect was survivability!


    Just this little injury wasn¡¯t even comparable to the injuries caused by using the Longevity Steps.


    1


    Under the gaze of the Black Prince, Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries recovered at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

 Chapter 603 - One Punch!?

    The Black Prince frowned slightly as Zhou Feng¡¯s injury was recovering swiftly but said nothing more.


    The pitch-black body disappeared into the darkness again, and the thick dark clouds blocked all the light.


    His killing aura seemed to swallow up all the light and even blocked one¡¯s senses.


    Zhou Feng felt like a blind man.


    Not only could his eyes not see anything, but even his senses were blurred.


    However, even so, the Black Prince still felt that Zhou Feng was a troublesome opponent.


    ¡®This recovery speed¡­ This physical body¡­¡¯


    The Black Prince was currently trying to speculate on Zhou Feng¡¯s background. Which tribe had such a terrifying recovery ability?


    ¡®He¡¯s definitely not alone. There must have been a powerful existence amongst his ancestors.¡¯


    This was common sense. It was impossible for an ordinary person to have such an ability. This must be a bloodline inheritance.


    There was no such thing as cultivating to the Divine Ability realm with a mortal body in the cultivation world.


    The stronger the bloodline, the stronger one¡¯s physique¡ªthis was the iron rule of the cultivation world. All heaven¡¯s favorites basically had an illustrious ancestor.


    Even if they were already down and out by now, they had once been glorious.


    The reason was very simple. If the ancestor had never produced a great cultivator and was also an ordinary person, then even if they exhausted their entire life, they would not be able to reach a certain height.


    Cultivation resources, cultivation talent, and cultivation guidance!


    These factors were enough to trap any cultivator.


    In the hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation history, there were actually only a few clans and several forces fighting over such things.


    Based on this simple understanding, the Black Prince began to search through his inherited knowledge to find out what kind of background Zhou Feng had.


    Only then could he make a more reasonable counter.


    Because the Black Prince had inherited the purest true dragon bloodline, his bloodline contained countless information.


    This information was imprinted in the bloodline of past generations of ancestors. When it needed to be used, the Black Prince only needed to think about it briefly, and the corresponding information would appear in his mind.


    This was equivalent to a database. This was also an important reason why ordinary geniuses could not defeat those monstrous geniuses.


    They were fighting with the protection of the previous generations of ancestors. The more terrifying the ancestor¡¯s strength was, the more powerful this database would be.


    Born to know? This was simply inconceivable in the eyes of mortals.


    However, in the eyes of cultivators, this was very normal. They had a huge amount of inheritance information.


    As long as it was in the database, it would automatically appear whenever they encountered a corresponding item.


    Such a great divine ability was not something that ordinary cultivators could master.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    From the inheritance information, Black Prince obtained very vague information.


    However, almost none of them fit Zhou Feng¡¯s case.


    For example, in ancient times, the Undying Fire Phoenix tribe had a recovery ability similar to Zhou Feng¡¯s.


    No matter how much damage they suffered, the Undying Fire Phoenixes would still be unafraid even if they lost their limbs.


    As long as the undying core was still there, the Undying Fire Phoenix could be reborn from the flames.


    However, Zhou Feng was not proficient in the Dao of Fire, so he was not an Undying Fire Phoenix.


    ¡®Eternal Spring Ability? That doesn¡¯t seem to be the case either!¡¯


    The Eternal Spring was a great divine ability. It was also famous for recovering from injuries. In the cultivation world, many mighty figures were most afraid of fighting with people who cultivated this divine ability.


    As long as one cultivated this divine ability, they would be like a piece of sticky candy, crazily pestering one.


    However, those who cultivated the Eternal Spring Ability all had a very obvious characteristic.


    That was that their faces would be covered in circles of wrinkles. These wrinkles could not be hidden, and they were also known as the eternal spring wrinkles.


    ¡®He is somewhat similar to Heavenly Venerate Longevity! But he shouldn¡¯t have such a personality!¡¯


    Black Prince was hiding in the thick black fog, testing Zhou Feng from time to time.


    However, his main body was not in a hurry to attack. After all, the environment above the Eastern Sea was too friendly for him.


    At that moment, the sky was still drizzling with black rain. A large amount of seawater flowed back into the sky and then turned into a drizzle.


    Wisps of killing intent melted into these raindrops.


    As time passed, Zhou Feng would unknowingly be eroded.


    ¡®If this person obtained the inheritance of Heavenly Venerate Longevity, his personality shouldn¡¯t be like this¡­¡¯


    Compared to the others, the Black Prince was more concerned about Zhou Feng¡¯s background.


    According to the inheritance information, Zhou Feng might have obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s legacy.


    However, many people had obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s legacy, and some heaven¡¯s favorites even took it for their own use, making a huge name for themselves.


    However, almost all people who obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s legacy had one characteristic¡ªthey would turn into turtles and think about how to survive.


    In their eyes, as long as they lived well, they would be able to surpass countless heaven¡¯s favorites.


    Even if they were heaven¡¯s favorites, they would still turn into skeletons under the flow of time.


    Therefore, after obtaining Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, most of the cultivators would become extremely stubborn.


    The personality that Zhou Feng displayed now was somewhat different.


    Other than that, the way he destroyed himself was also very different from Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    The Black Prince was extremely puzzled. For a moment, he could not understand Zhou Feng¡¯s methods.


    ¡®This rain¡­;¡¯


    Zhou Feng could also feel the black rain dripping down on his body at this moment.


    The killing intent that had melted in the rain had already caused a trace of damage to his physical body.


    This trace of damage did not seem like a normal battle caused it. Instead, it was like a soft wound that slowly seeped into his body.


    ¡®Then¡­¡¯


    When he realized his predicament, a trace of madness suddenly flashed through his eyes.


    The hair on Black Prince¡¯s body immediately stood on end, but before he could react, something happened.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng punched his chest with his right fist, and the explosive force sent his body to a half-dead state.


    Zhou Feng forced the full potential of his physical body and divine soul to the brink of death.


    A large amount of longevity substances were consumed.


    This furious roar was accompanied by his Invincible Avatar¡¯s roar as if it had pierced through the three realms. A horrifying aura gushed out, and the dark clouds that the Black Prince had been creating were completely torn apart.


    The churning seawater instantly regained its calm.


    At that moment, the Black Prince was exposed to Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    The Black Prince¡¯s eyes were now filled with shock. He did not know when Zhou Feng had appeared in front of him, but all his eyes saw were a fist.


    1


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    A force that could destroy dried twigs was crazily ravaging the Black Prince¡¯s physical body.


    This attack gathered all of Zhou Feng¡¯s essence, energy, and spirit, as well as all sorts of passive buffs.


    ¡­


    Countless passive skills converged into one attack, and the Black Prince suffered an unprecedented heavy injury.


    A second ago, he had even planned to slowly grind Zhou Feng to death, but in the next second, he was frightened by Zhou Feng¡¯s madness.


    The Black Prince could clearly see that Zhou Feng was crazily consuming everything in his body. The unnatural divine light in his eyes could not last at all.

 Chapter 604 - The Black Princes Questions

    The Black Prince was shell-shocked.


    He didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to be so crazy. That kind of divine light was so sublimated. Was he planning to fight him to the death?


    How could the inheritor of Heavenly Venerate Longevity be so violent?


    He went all out right from the start and didn¡¯t make any sense.


    The strangest thing was that Zhou Feng¡¯s punch contained countless laws.


    The Black Prince¡¯s dragon scales weren¡¯t able to block it.


    The Black Prince retreated explosively and spat out a mouthful of pure dragon blood like a fountain.


    In the next second, all the black dragon scales on his body exploded.


    The dark clouds in the sky began to gather rapidly. The two Tide-Controlling Flags turned into two water spirits and continuously released gentle light.


    It was clear that Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden burst of power was unable to insta-kill the Black Prince.


    On the contrary, because he had used the Longevity Steps to forcefully burst out in one wave, the condition of his entire physical body was in a terrible state.


    This punch was a world-shaking attack because he had forcefully squeezed out his potential.


    Even with Zhou Feng¡¯s durable physical body, he was unable to catch his breath for a moment.


    ¡°Ridiculous! Do you think you can defeat me like this?¡±


    Seeing how Zhou Feng was unable to recover for a moment, a cold smile appeared on the corner of the Black Prince¡¯s mouth.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s actions clearly showed that he did not have a background. He should be a lucky kid who had obtained the inheritance by chance.


    To think that he was still frantically thinking about who was standing behind Zhou Feng.


    To any famous and lucky heaven¡¯s favorites, preserving their lives was the most important thing. Even if they encountered setbacks, these heaven¡¯s favorites and freaks would still be able to withstand failure.


    The path of cultivation could not be smooth sailing. As long as one lived long enough, there would be more opportunities.


    Therefore, most heaven¡¯s favorites would not have such a violent personality. Hiding their trump cards was the most common method.


    Even the most aggressive heaven¡¯s favorites would not come up with the mentality that both sides would suffer heavy losses.


    ¡°Perhaps you think that you can kill me by being ruthless to yourself and then slowly recover from your injuries?


    ¡°If I¡¯m not wrong, you should have a treasure that specializes in recovering from injuries!¡±


    As he spoke, the Black Prince¡¯s aura rapidly stabilized with the help of the two Tide-Controlling Flags, and his injuries were mostly recovered.


    On the surface, the Black Prince appeared very confident. However, compared to before, more than half of his dragon scales had fallen off, and his naked body was exposed in the air.


    The dragon scales that had fallen off were actually substitute dragon scales, an inherited divine ability of the true dragons.


    They could refine their dragon scales into substitute dragon scales, which would take the place of the original body and bear the damage when they suffered a fatal injury.


    At the same time, they could also refine their natal reverse scale. Compared to other substitute scales, the natal reverse scale was equivalent to a substitute puppet, with the law of karma attached to it.


    A single natal reverse scale was equivalent to a life.


    Still, the difficulty of refining it was great. Even in ancient times, there were only a few true dragons who could refine the natal reverse scale.


    This required an extremely deep understanding of the Dao of Karma.


    Although the Black Prince¡¯s true form was that of a Yazi, and he had the purest dragon blood, he still did not know how to refine his natal reverse scale.


    Even if it was a substitute dragon scale, it was only at the beginning. He was not able to replace all the dragon scales on his body with substitute dragon scales.


    Don¡¯t look at how cold the Black Prince looked at this moment. He looked like he had the advantage, but in reality, his heart was already bleeding crazily.


    Most of the substitute dragon scales on his body had been destroyed by Zhou Feng¡¯s punch, and he had even suffered a serious injury.


    If not for the two Tide-Controlling Flags, he might have died here.


    ¡®What kind of monster is this? Where did he come from!? He doesn¡¯t have any background and relied on his own to cultivate to this level?¡¯


    The Black Prince now had a basic understanding of Zhou Feng.


    This wild kid who appeared out of nowhere was definitely a heaven-gifted prodigy.


    He had a reckless personality and didn¡¯t seem to have any background. His cultivation looked somewhat messy, mainly because Zhou Feng¡¯s body was emitting all sorts of great Dao laws.


    But even so, his strength had actually reached such a terrifying level.


    This kind of wild monster was truly rare.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at Black Prince and didn¡¯t say anything. His messy body had already stabilized within a few breaths of time.


    The passive Tenacious Heart and Blood Recovery had already been triggered.


    ¡®Looks like my strength is still a little lacking. I used all my strength, but I wasn¡¯t able to heavily injure this person!¡¯


    Zhou Feng also had a basic judgment in his heart.


    That was that he was very strong now, but he wasn¡¯t as strong as he had imagined.


    His full-strength attack actually wasn¡¯t even able to seriously injure the Black Prince.


    That¡¯s right! In his eyes, the Black Prince wasn¡¯t seriously injured because his aura didn¡¯t weaken in the slightest.


    Instead, it became even more dangerous. The AI had already begun to remind him that danger was about to descend.


    During the brief battle just now, the AI had gathered even more information about the Black Prince.


    As a result, the accuracy of Hexadirectional Calculation began to increase greatly. Furthermore, as the battle progressed, the more data it gathered, the more accurate the AI¡¯s divination would become.


    Three breaths!


    After three breaths, the Black Prince seemed to have completely recovered from his injuries.


    ¡°Let me guess! The inheritance you obtained by chance should be Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance!


    ¡°Otherwise, you wouldn¡¯t be so crazy¡­¡±


    The Black Prince, who had almost recovered from his injuries, pretended to be still recovering and then used words to disturb Zhou Feng.


    Sure enough, Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing about Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    He didn¡¯t expect the Black Prince to be able to see through him. Was it so easy for him to be seen through because he had received Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance?


    However, in the next second, dark clouds covered the sky, and the Black Prince¡¯s treasured sword disappeared.


    With a sword hum, Zhou Feng felt a stab of pain in his back.


    This was a sneak attack!


    The Black Prince pretended not to have fully recovered while using words to disturb Zhou Feng. When Zhou Feng was slightly distracted, he immediately made his move.


    From this, he displayed an extremely shrewd plan.


    However, what made the Black Prince feel strange was that there was no surprise on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    He merely turned his body slightly to avoid the vital parts and then allowed the long sword to stab into his body.


    After that, Black Prince saw Zhou Feng¡¯s face rapidly turn red and noticed that his injuries had mostly recovered.


    The Black Prince stared at Zhou Feng with wide eyes.


    ¡®Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! That kind of injury! That feeling of extreme sublimation! It¡¯s absolutely impossible to fake it!¡¯


    Although he thought so in his heart, he could not resist Zhou Feng¡¯s increasingly violent aura.

 Chapter 605 - Life and Death! True Immortality!

    What the Black Prince could not accept was that Zhou Feng looked as if he was unharmed.


    The injuries that seemed particularly serious previously did not seem as serious now.


    The treasured sword also pierced straight into Zhou Feng¡¯s back.


    This sword was not an ordinary treasure but the Black Prince¡¯s lifebound artifact.


    It had accompanied the Black Prince since birth. After many years of nurturing, its power could cut through countless dao artifacts.


    Most importantly, this Yazi Sword also had the effect of affecting the mind.


    As long as it stabbed or scratched one, the mind would be instantly stupefied, becoming irritable and narrow-minded.


    But now, it seemed that Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t affected at all. His aura was becoming more and more vigorous.


    ¡°Come on!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Fate Wheel kept locking his vitality in his body, preventing it from flowing out.


    The longevity substances were being consumed crazily, keeping him in a state of imminent death.


    In this state, all of his potential was forced out continuously.


    When a person was in a life-and-death situation, the potential that could be unleashed was terrifying.


    That was what he was doing now. Zhou Feng wanted to force out all the potential of his physical body.


    Although doing so was very dangerous for others, it wasn¡¯t that risky for him.


    The main thing was that the Fate Wheel was powerful. The Fate Wheel could lock the vitality as best as possible and temporarily maintain the physical body¡¯s state.


    As long as Zhou Feng thought about it, he could force the Yazi Sword out of his physical body.


    Then, relying on all kinds of passivity, the seemingly serious injury could quickly be recovered.


    It was only because he had all kinds of passive skills that he could play like this. If it were any other Heavenly Venerate Longevity inheritor who saw this scene, they would definitely cry out in shock and go crazy.


    Zhou Feng felt that his strength had broken through again.


    The feeling of being on the brink of life and death once again caused him to enter a mysterious and special state.


    He took a step forward.


    Zhou Feng arrived in front of the Black Prince, and the vitality in his body was further drained.


    However, at this moment, his heart was as hard as a stone, and there was not the slightest fluctuation of emotion.


    His aura clearly did not change, but when this scene fell into the eyes of the Black Prince, it horrified the Black Prince.


    Zhou Feng was not a normal person at all. He was the spawn of a crazy demon!


    Was there a need to do this!?


    The Black Prince now really questioned Zhou Feng fiercely.


    It seemed that they had yet to reach this level of irreconcilable hatred!


    2


    They were fighting to the death right from the start, and he didn¡¯t care about their own lives at all.


    ¡®This is completely unnecessary! Even if you win, your cultivation will almost be crippled!¡¯


    This was simply not worth the loss. The Black Prince guessed that Zhou Feng might have some method to quickly recover from his injuries, but the price to pay for this method should be very high.


    In the end, it was actually a matter of cost-effectiveness. Cultivators were naturally unwilling to expend their own potential before they reached the peak.


    Perhaps they wouldn¡¯t feel anything when they were young, but when they were old and weak, everything would be too late.


    ¡°Tide-Controlling Flag!¡±


    As his thoughts flashed, the Tide-Controlling Flag beside the Black Prince blocked Zhou Feng¡¯s punch.


    In the next second, the Black Prince¡¯s body shrunk to a grain of rice. Seawater gushed out, and a huge wave completely enveloped him.


    Originally, the Black Prince wanted to temporarily avoid the edge of the attack. Given Zhou Feng¡¯s fierce strength, it was impossible to meet it head-on.


    As long as he delayed a little, Zhou Feng would be exhausted.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t give him a chance at all. He continued to use the Longevity Steps, bypassing all obstructions.


    With one step, he appeared in front of the Black Prince.


    Zhou Feng was bleeding from his seven orifices, and his face was ghastly pale, but in the Black Prince¡¯s eyes, he was like a fiend, charging straight at him.


    That aura that could swallow mountains and rivers pressed down on the Black Prince, causing him to feel somewhat suffocated.


    Another punch!


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    The Black Prince cried out in pain. At that moment, he couldn¡¯t retain any grace.


    This was because he should be putting his life on the line now. If he didn¡¯t put his life on the line, then he would be the one to die.


    The desperate situation had come so suddenly!


    Even before the Black Prince¡¯sstate of mind changed, he discovered that he had been forced into a corner.


    By the time he regained his senses, he realized that he had nowhere to retreat to.


    In addition to waking up from his shock, the Black Prince began to frantically fight for his life.


    With a dragon¡¯s roar, the entire world began to tremble.


    ¡®The Dao of Longevity! So that¡¯s how it is! I¡¯ve comprehended it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng was completely unmoved. He tried his best to squeeze out the last bit of his strength.


    At that moment, he had also pulled out the Yazi Sword.


    He got a deeper understanding of the Dao of Longevity in that special state.


    The Dao of Longevity was the path to becoming an eternal existence.


    No matter who or what crisis he encountered, he would be able to survive.


    That kind of long-term longevity was not considered longevity. One would be able to push through all kinds of taboos and then survive. This was true immortality!


    To reach this realm, one needed to constantly seek death, test the limits of the physical body and the soul, and finally break through this limit.


    Compared to many seniors who pursued eternal life, Zhou Feng¡¯s brain circuits were clearly somewhat novel.


    Moreover, he believed that what he comprehended was right!


    ¡®Seeking death but not dying! That is true eternal life!¡¯


    The divine light in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes condensed into a ball of fire, and the voice of the great Dao began to ring out.


    ¡°How is this possible!? Have you comprehended the Dao!? Here!? At this time!?¡±


    The Black Prince was astounded, and his eyeballs were about to pop out.


    This voice of the great Dao! This special feeling!


    It was completely the scene of a cultivator comprehending the rudiments of the Dao, comprehending the Dao in battle, and comprehending the Dao in this state of the body.


    The Black Prince didn¡¯t know what to say at all.


    The third step of the Dao Enlightenment realm! Truly comprehending a great dao and breaking through here could be called entering the rudiments or entering the Dao¡ªthis was the Dao Comprehension realm.


    Next, one could consider the emergence of the physical body.


    From now on, cultivators would have to face more tests from the laws of the great Dao.


    Comprehending the great Dao! Controlling the great Dao! This was not something that an ordinary person could do.


    This was because, from this stage onward, all cultivators would have to face all kinds of heavenly tribulations. As long as they passed all kinds of heavenly tribulations, they would be able to control the laws of the great Dao.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng was about to face the real heavenly tribulation. Compared to this heavenly tribulation, the previous heavenly tribulation was just playing house.


    ¡°Haha!¡±


    Under the Black Prince¡¯s shocked gaze, Zhou Feng suddenly laughed heartily.


    Then, the Black Prince¡¯s eyes widened.


    Unknowingly, Zhou Feng broke the Black Prince¡¯s right hand and used it as a sword to stab the Black Prince¡¯s body.


    Soul Punch!


    This was not the end.


    Zhou Feng condensed all of his divine soul and ruthlessly punched the Black Prince.


    The Black Prince¡¯s death was utterly tragic. He did not even have the ability to resist or the chance to use his trump card.


    The two Tide-Controlling Flags behind him had large holes.


    Perhaps the Black Prince had previously thought that he would definitely not die suddenly with the protection of these two Tide-Controlling Flags.


    But Zhou Feng directly used facts to prove that these two Tide-Controlling Flags could not stop him at all.

 Chapter 606 - Astral Perception

    Zhou Feng¡¯s two thumps instantly stunned the Black Prince.


    This was especially so for the arm that was used as a longsword, as it contained a large amount of longevity substances.


    The Black Prince found that his physical body was slowly rotting. His true dragon bloodline¡¯s super-recovery ability was now completely useless.


    The most serious injury was actually the damage to his soul.


    The Soul Punch directly hit his soul. Without the control of his soul, the Black Prince didn¡¯t even have the ability to resist.


    The Black Prince spat large mouthfuls of blood. His breathing started to become intense!


    ¡®Am I going to die here!?¡¯


    The Black Prince didn¡¯t dare to continue thinking.


    He unsealed himself because he had predicted that the golden era was coming and wanted to make a difference in this era.


    He had not left the Eastern Sea immediately for safety reasons and headed to the Central Plains.


    Instead, he chose to accumulate his strength in the Eastern Sea and wait for a suitable opportunity to head to the Central Plains.


    This was because the Black Prince knew that the Central Plains were no longer the Central Plains of the ancient era.


    After countless plans, the Central Plains should have the foundation to welcome the golden era.


    He had imagined that he would be able to regain his reputation as a true dragon in the Central Plains in the future, but he never expected that he would die here.


    ¡®A madman killed me?¡¯


    The moment this thought appeared in the Black Prince¡¯s mind, Zhou Feng expressionlessly twisted the Black Prince¡¯s head.


    After that, the Black Prince fell to the surface of the sea.


    Blood Rain! Descending!


    The moment the Black Prince died, a rain of blood actually fell slowly.


    The entire sea seemed to be mourning the Black Prince¡¯s death. Such a heaven-blessed existence that controlled the laws of the great Dao had died here.


    ¡°Haha!¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng laughed loudly.


    Although his current condition was very bad, even with the passive Blood Recovery, he could only maintain a near-death state.


    This time, he had courted death a little too much.


    However, the unexpected enlightenment made him understand that courting death and not dying was his path to immortality.


    3


    If there were no accidents, Zhou Feng would be courting death more and more in the future, crazily challenging his own limits.


    1


    As long as he could survive every time, Zhou Feng would welcome true sublimation.


    1


    After gasping for breath, he finally recovered.


    With all kinds of passive buffs and the Black Prince¡¯s flesh and blood as nourishment, Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries were rapidly recovering.


    While waiting to recover, Zhou Feng checked the skill panel. The progress was already full.


    ¡°Draw!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately drew a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Astral Perception: You will have the ability to sense the stars in the sky!


    Because the previous passive skills were too abnormal, Zhou Feng was still looking forward to this new passive skill.


    ¡°What? Sensing the stars? What¡¯s the use of this?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this passive skill, he did not understand its use.


    Just sensing the stars in the sky? What¡¯s the use of this?


    Zhou Feng suddenly remembered that when he had obtained the Starseizer Steps, he needed to sense the stars, but he had already changed the Starseizer Step to the Longevity Step.


    So, wasn¡¯t this new passive skill completely useless?


    Thinking of this, he couldn¡¯t help but feel a little disappointed. Perhaps this passive skill would be useful in the future.


    But what was certain was that this current passive skill was completely useless to Zhou Feng.


    However, after obtaining this passive skill, he felt that there were countless stars above his head, and these stars all carried a destructive power.


    ¡°These stars are all crowded in the same direction?¡±


    Zhou Fenghuan discovered a very interesting phenomenon.


    The formation above his head was actually not spread out. There were only a few stars in this region.


    And at the location of the Central Plains, these stars seemed to be squeezed together like a subway.


    Some of the stars felt as if they were about to collide!


    ¡®Why did this happen?¡¯


    A question arose in his mind. This was obviously very illogical.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to investigate this matter further because the clam on his neck was trembling slightly.


    Now, Zhou Feng had to release Ge Li.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Is everything over?¡±


    Ge Li, who had just come out of the Arcane Ink Space, looked around immediately and then looked at Zhou Feng nervously.


    Although Ge Li was in the Arcane Ink Space, she still felt a hint of danger.


    She was worried about Zhou Feng¡¯s safety, especially when Zhou Feng was fighting with the Black Prince.


    But now, it seemed that Zhou Feng was fine.


    In the eyes of Ge Li, Zhou Feng¡¯s breathing was stable, and his clothes were not wrinkled. Even the surface of the sea was dyed red.


    No matter how one looked at it, it looked like Zhou Feng had carried out a massacre.


    Seeing this, Ge Li finally relaxed.


    ¡°It¡¯s all over! Look, I killed another true dragon!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes were a little hot, and he couldn¡¯t help but show off.


    Speaking of which, he finally had someone to show off to after such a long time.


    ¡°True dragon?¡±


    As expected, Ge Li¡¯s eyes widened, and her mouth opened slightly as if she couldn¡¯t believe what Zhou Feng had said.


    In Ge Li¡¯s understanding, a true dragon represented strength.


    As for killing a true dragon, she didn¡¯t even dare to think about it.


    ¡°Look!¡±


    Zhou Feng showed her the Black Prince¡¯s corpse.


    Ge Li was immediately frightened by the remaining true dragon aura.


    The dragon aura was too terrifying for aquatic creatures like them. The only thing that puzzled Ge Li was that the appearance of the true dragon was a little strange?


    In Ge Li¡¯s collection, there was a mural depicting the Dragon King of the Eastern Sea.


    The true dragon in front of her seemed a little different from the mural, but the dragon aura was real.


    ¡°It¡¯s not convenient to look at it here! Let¡¯s go back to your space and take a look!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at Ge Li¡¯s frowning face and grabbed her hand.


    Her soft and moist hand eased Zhou Feng¡¯s tense mind.


    It was not safe here. He should hide before trouble came!


    The Dragon Palace would not let the Black Prince fall here lightly.


    Not to mention that there were two damaged Tide-Controlling Flags in his hands.


    The Tide-Controlling Flags were the key to activating the Tidal Wave Formation. The Dragon Palace would definitely want to reclaim the Tide-Controlling Flags.


    Before that, it was best for Zhou Feng to keep a low profile.

 Chapter 607 - The 1 in 1,000,000 Evildoers!

    At the Dragon Palace¡­


    Because the Vortex Mystic Realm was about to open, all the water tribes and even human cultivators were gathered there.


    Therefore, the Dragon Palace was very lively at the moment, with countless experts gathered.


    The Dragon Palace put all its energy into maintaining order. This was also an opportunity for the younger generation of the Dragon Palace to show off.


    This meant that the Dragon Palace didn¡¯t have a weak successor.


    However, under this atmosphere, a miserable dragon roar entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    After hearing the dragon roar, a depressing atmosphere spread out from the center of the Dragon Palace.


    ¡°Wait! This dragon roar! A true dragon has fallen?¡±


    ¡°And it¡¯s a pure true dragon!¡±


    ¡°Who Is It? Who dares to provoke the Dragon Palace at such a critical moment?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Everyone looked at each other and murmured to themselves.


    Because this dragon roar was incredible. Normally, only when a true dragon had fallen would the Dragon Palace release this dragon roar as a warning!


    Moreover, the strength and identity of a fallen true dragon had to reach a certain level before it could trigger this kind of dragon roar.


    The Vortex Mystic Realm was about to open, yet this kind of thing happened at such a critical moment.


    This was a huge test for the Dragon Palace.


    Although the cultivators present didn¡¯t discuss it loudly, many cultivators¡¯ expressions had changed. It was obvious that their minds had changed.


    Many people would take advantage of the chaos if a ruthless person dared to take the lead and cause trouble at this critical moment.


    Don¡¯t think that the Dragon Palace¡¯s deterrence was very strong. In fact, the Dragon Palace¡¯s prestige was only targeted at the water tribes.


    In the Eastern Sea, besides the large number of water tribes, some human cultivators also cultivated in seclusion on various islands.


    The Eastern Sea had more cultivation resources and less competition than the Eastern Land.


    Therefore, after the Spiritual Veins in the Eastern Land were extracted one by one, many sects chose to go overseas to avoid trouble.


    Each of these sects was quite powerful.


    ¡°Someone dares to cause trouble in the Eastern Sea!¡±


    ¡°Impossible! Someone who can cause such a wail¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Compared to the restless cultivators and aquatic creatures, the people of the Dragon Palace looked a bit more panicked.


    The others might not know, but the people of the Dragon Palace knew very well.


    Only two people in the Dragon Palace could cause such a wail.


    One was the old Dragon King, and the other was the Black Prince, who had broken out of the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    The old Dragon King naturally couldn¡¯t die, so there was only one answer.


    Many people of the Dragon Palace immediately thought that it was impossible.


    Although the people of the Dragon Palace were very against the Black Prince, his strength was not to be underestimated.


    Not only did he have the Tide-Controlling Flags to protect him, but he also had the substitution dragon scales. It was impossible for an ordinary cultivator to hurt the Black Prince.


    Many people had thought of the Black Prince not long ago, but how did he die in the blink of an eye?


    ¡­


    ¡°As expected! The Black Prince should have met with a great calamity, but he still couldn¡¯t escape! It¡¯s too difficult to escape from the ancient era to the current golden era!¡±


    On a crystal dragon throne, the old Dragon King¡¯s face didn¡¯t change at all. He seemed to have expected the Black Prince¡¯s death.


    In fact, the Black Prince should have died in the ancient era.


    However, his father had sealed him in the Vortex Mystic Realm and used it to eliminate the aura of calamity.


    Furthermore, he could awaken in the golden era to fight for the golden era¡¯s fate.


    However, he failed in the end.


    He had sealed him in the ancient times and waited for the golden era to come and break the seal. This was actually a very difficult thing to do as it went against the heavens.


    The Black Prince himself was not from this era, but he wanted to fight for luck in this era. This was already not in line with the law of the great Dao.


    Therefore, after the Black Prince broke out of the seal, the old Dragon King felt a thick aura of calamity in his body.


    In the future, the Black Prince would definitely meet a fatal disaster.


    However, if he could get through this fatal disaster, more than half of the aura of calamity on the Black Prince¡¯s body would be eliminated.


    The path of cultivation might be much smoother in the future.


    Unfortunately, the Black Prince didn¡¯t make it through.


    ¡°And the great Tribulation Qi is accompanied by great luck! The once-in-a-lifetime geniuses of the Central Plains should be waking up soon!¡±


    The old Dragon King couldn¡¯t help but think of the true freaks of the Central Plains.


    Compared to the Black Prince, the geniuses of the Central Plains were the stars that shone in the sky.


    This was because when the prodigies learned about the presence of the Tribulation Qi, they were not afraid and even went up against the difficulties.


    This was because they would obtain some luck every time they passed a calamity. This was equivalent to passing the test of the laws of the great Dao.


    If they passed the test, they would naturally receive rewards.


    These prodigies had predicted the arrival of the golden era and specially sealed themselves. Moreover, the timing of their choice was also extremely consistent.


    There were only a few heaven¡¯s favorites in 10,000 years. This kind of competition was simply not intense enough.


    Hence, these madmen wanted all the freaks to gather in one era. When the time came, they would compete and become the one and only prodigy.


    For these madmen, it was best if there were 10,000 heaven¡¯s favorites competing together.


    Only then would the final victor have enough weight. Only then would the final victor be able to break through the shackles of the cultivation world.


    To be honest, when the old Dragon King received this information from the bloodline inheritance, he was completely dumbfounded. He simply could not imagine how great the spirit of those freaks in the ancient times was.


    Could This be the pride of a heaven¡¯s pride?


    It was also because of this reason that the old Dragon King had always been holed up in the Eastern Sea.


    In fact, if the old Dragon King was willing, he could have entered the Central Plains when he was young and competed with the freaks of the Central Plains.


    But in the end, the old Dragon King became timid. He didn¡¯t have the courage to compete with the geniuses of the Central Plains.


    Once he was involved in the battles of those geniuses, he wouldn¡¯t be able to survive.


    True dragon bloodline? This wasn¡¯t even worth mentioning in the Central Plains.


    Those with true ancient bloodlines used nine true dragons to pull their carriages.


    Not to mention those ancient sects. Through the Dao Seals passed down from generation to generation, each person represented a sect.


    The old Dragon King did not think that he could make a name for himself in the Central Plains. Rather than being beaten to a bloody pulp in the Central Plains, it would be better to be the king of the Eastern Sea.


    ¡°But killing the Black Prince¡­¡±


    The old Dragon King pondered for a while and chose not to personally take action.


    It was better to leave this matter to his subordinates!


    He only wanted to spend his last days peacefully now. The old Dragon King, who had once suppressed the Eastern Sea, was really old.


    Perhaps many people did not expect that the Eastern Sea Dragon King didn¡¯t have many years to live!


    Not only was he physically old, but he was also mentally old.

 Chapter 608 - Dry Pond

    The old Dragon King only wanted to spend his old age well.


    It was precisely because of this mentality that the opening of the Vortex Mystic Realm attracted so many cultivators.


    The old Dragon King was planning to make a fortune from the Vortex Mystic Realm. He wanted to save enough resources for the younger generation of the Dragon Palace.


    Even if he died, the Dragon Palace would have someone who could suppress the situation.


    In fact, this was also a kind of resource exchange. Compared to humans, the aquatic tribes had many advantages.


    However, humans still had the advantage in pill refinement, talisman-making, and formations.


    The Dragon Palace had a large number of raw materials, but they could not convert all of these resources into cultivation resources.


    Although the dragon clan was also training Pill Masters themselves, they could not refine high-grade pills at all.


    Pill Master was a rare profession even among the human race.


    One had to know that pill refinement was invented by humans, and the aquatic tribes had too few pill refinement inheritances.


    For example, the most crucial Dao Enlightenment Pill was an essential pill after becoming a Divine Ability cultivator.


    It could effectively allow cultivators to comprehend the great Dao.


    In the beginning, when humans faced the other 10,000 races, they were basically in a situation of overall disadvantage.


    However, when the art of pill refinement was invented, humans were able to continuously wipe out these disadvantages through pill refinement methods.


    Even in the Central Plains, some ancient families had developed resistance to pills when they consumed them, so all the pills were ineffective.


    Back to the main topic, although the old Dragon King was influenced by his old age, he still looked like a treasured saber that had not aged.


    In the face of the questions from the other people in the Dragon Palace, he directly gave a word.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    The word ¡°Kill¡± made many people in the Dragon Palace excited.


    In the eyes of some people, this was a great opportunity.


    If they could enter the Dragon King¡¯s sight through this matter, perhaps the next Dragon King¡¯s ownership would be clear.


    As early as more than ten years ago, the old Dragon King had actually revealed that he was going to choose a new Dragon King.


    This exhilarated many of the dragon descendants in the Dragon Palace extremely excited.


    ¡°Go and investigate! Who dares to behave atrociously in the Eastern Sea!¡±


    ¡°This might be a test!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people in the Dragon Palace immediately took action, and a few of them even made a big fuss.


    This undoubtedly made the entire Dragon Palace even more lively.


    At the same time, a surge of dragon might suddenly rose and disappeared. This was the old Dragon King¡¯s statement.


    Feeling the old and firm might, the group of human cultivators also quieted down.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng did not know what kind of disturbance he had caused.


    He also did not know that the Black Prince¡¯s death had allowed the old Dragon King to understand the power of the Tribulation Qi.


    At present, he was hiding in the Arcane Ink Space, enjoying Ge Li¡¯s massage very comfortably.


    Ge Li was wearing cool clothes, and Zhou Feng was lying on her smooth thighs, closing his eyes with a comfortable expression.


    Meanwhile, Ge Li massaged his head with her tender, warm hands.


    ¡°This feels so good!¡±


    Under the warmth of the jade, Zhou Feng¡¯s mind was greatly relaxed.


    Previously, he was fighting crazily and drifting between life and death. Now, he was lying comfortably on the girl¡¯s thighs and enjoying himself.


    This difference gave Zhou Feng¡¯s soul a deep level of liberation. Even his soul power had a slight increase.


    ¡°Zhou Feng, where¡¯s the true dragon¡¯s corpse you promised?¡±


    Ge Li was massaging him as she urged him to take out the Black Prince¡¯s corpse.


    This was the condition they had agreed on previously. Ge Li would massage him, and he would exchange the Black Prince¡¯s corpse.


    In fact, Ge Li wasn¡¯t really interested in the Black Prince¡¯s corpse.


    She was completely trying to satisfy her curiosity. This was a true dragon!


    Ge Li had never seen a true dragon since she was young. She had only heard many legends. Now that she could see a true dragon¡¯s corpse, she was naturally very excited.


    Speaking of which, Ge Li was really a homebody.


    Usually, she would not leave the Arcane Ink Space. When she was bored, she would quietly open the clamshell and run to the surface of the sea to absorb the power of the moonlight.


    Or, she would secretly peep at other aquatic creatures.


    Other than that, Ge Li didn¡¯t have any entertainment activities, and she didn¡¯t even cultivate.


    Anyway, the process of condensing the Arcane Ink Pearl was Ge Li¡¯s cultivation process.


    Even so, Ge Li didn¡¯t show any impatience on her face. Instead, she seemed to be enjoying it.


    Because for decades, Ge Li had been living like this.


    Sometimes, in order to avoid the aquatic creatures, Ge Li still slept for more than ten years.


    Now that Zhou Feng would chat with her from time to time, Ge Li did not feel bored at all.


    ¡°Wait a little longer!¡±


    Zhou Feng closed his eyes tightly and rested his head on his warm thighs. He smelled the faint fragrance and was not in a hurry at all.


    It was not easy for him to get this opportunity to let Ge Li give him a massage. He did not want to waste this opportunity.


    His attitude toward Ge Li was actually very free. As long as Ge Li was not willing, Zhou Feng would not force her.


    This was because Zhou Feng hoped that the relationship between the two of them would be more equal.


    It was not like a vassal relationship. If it was a vassal relationship, then the two of them would not get along well.


    If there were no mistakes, Zhou Feng¡¯s life would be extremely long. If he could have a few lovers to accompany him, he should be able to kill those boring times.


    ¡°Still waiting?¡±


    Ge Li looked a little unhappy and pouted.


    The longer she spent with Zhou Feng, the richer her emotions became.


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    Suddenly, Ge Li seemed to remember something, and her small hands started to become restless.


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately trembled.


    Ge Li didn¡¯t stop. Instead, she smiled even more proudly.


    ¡®He¡¯s afraid of this!¡¯


    After the previous battle, Zhou Feng¡¯s injuries had completely recovered.


    But in fact, he had used up a lot of energy. He had used up almost all of the longevity substances, Blood Qi, and Spiritual Qi stored in his Fate Wheel.


    If Ge Li absorbed more, the longevity substances would run out.


    Because of Zhou Feng¡¯s existence, Ge Li had not floated to the surface of the sea for a long time to absorb the power of the moonlight.


    In contrast, he had used up a lot of energy.


    ¡°Alright! Alright!¡±


    Zhou Feng opened his eyes and took out the Black Prince¡¯s corpse.


    Then, he took out the two torn Tide-Controlling Flags.


    Although he had paid a huge price to kill Black Prince, he had gained a lot.


    Other than the Black Prince¡¯s collection, the two Tide-Controlling Flags should have been his greatest gains.


    When he had fought the Black Prince previously, if it hadn¡¯t been for the two Tide-Controlling Flags, he probably wouldn¡¯t have needed to fight in such a dangerous manner.


    To be honest, if it hadn¡¯t been for his sudden epiphany, he would have had a plan to escape.


    Not only could the Tide-Controlling Flags protect the Black Prince, but they could also control the surrounding seawater. The pressure they had brought to Zhou Feng was truly enormous.


    It could be said that the Tide-Controlling Flag was a treasure that integrated defense, attack, and field control.


    If such a powerful treasure could become his own, then Zhou Feng could be said to be able to come and go freely in the Eastern Sea.

 Chapter 609 - A Desperate Attempt

    Zhou Feng began to carefully observe the two Tide-Controlling Flags in front of him.


    If it had been before, he definitely would not have been able to make any sense of them.


    The conditions for the formation of such top-tier magical equipment were very harsh. Generally, it was built by using the environment and time.


    But with the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, he could totally get some clues from them.


    ¡°The Dao of Water?¡±


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, the two Tide-Controlling Flags were equivalent to two masses of the laws of the Dao of Water.


    Two masses of the laws of the great Dao and a conducting material.


    The composition of the Tide-Controlling Flags was that simple. When it was needed to be used, the Tide-Controlling Flags would be activated.


    One only needed to use the power of one¡¯s soul to trigger the laws of the great Dao.


    But now that the two Tide-Controlling Flags had been broken, the best way was to change the two sides into one.


    Or, under certain conditions, they could be reassembled to form new equipment.


    Since the two Tide-Controlling Flags were formed naturally and were not meant to be refined, it was best not to have too many methods to modify them.


    ¡°This fabric is not bad!¡±


    Zhou Feng touched the Tide-Controlling Flag¡¯s surface and found the texture very soft and delicate.


    It seemed to be suitable for making a piece of clothing.


    It was not bad to make a piece of clothing for Ge Li. Although the Tide-Controlling Flag was very magical, especially when it fell into the hands of the aquatic creatures, it was not as useful to him as he had imagined.


    Zhou Feng was now focused on creating the Heavenly Classics of Longevity, and he did not want to comprehend the laws of another great Dao.


    As for the protective effect of the Tide-Controlling Flag, it was not as good as his physical body.


    Therefore, he would leave it to Ge Li to make some clothes.


    Other than these two Tide-Controlling Flags, the Black Prince also left behind a treasured sword.


    Coincidentally, this treasured sword was actually made of Immortal Essence Gold. Moreover, it had been tempered for thousands of years, and the body of the sword emitted an immortal aura.


    Zhou Feng did not hesitate and directly put the treasured sword in his hand.


    The passive Immortal Golden Bones was triggered!


    The sword¡¯s Immortal Qi started to be absorbed crazily.


    Then, his white jade-like bones started to become stronger and turn golden.


    Gradually, his bones also contained a trace of Immortal Qi. At the same time, the sharpness of the gold, stone, and minerals also affected Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    However, this was only a small injury. Zhou Feng didn¡¯t even notice that the injury had already recovered.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    What surprised Zhou Feng even more was that his Longevity bloodline seemed to have been stimulated.


    His body began to squirm as the longevity substances and Immortal Qi were moving back and forth.


    ¡®The Immortal Golden Bones can stimulate the Longevity bloodline? Is this because of the Immortal Qi?¡¯


    At this moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s train of thought became a little broader.


    He wanted to live forever!


    Just by condensing the Longevity bloodline and comprehending the Dao of Longevity, the results were a little slow.


    1


    By successfully condensing the Longevity bloodline, not only could it absorb the longevity substances, but it could also affect the body and soul.


    Zhou Feng was slowly moving toward immortality, but this was too slow.


    If he had other things to assist him, such as the Immortal Golden Bones, would it make his path to immortality faster?


    His bones could become Immortal Golden Bones! What about his internal organs? What about his skin and flesh?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s little brain instantly started working.


    Since he wouldn¡¯t die anytime soon, should he start from his own body now?


    Compared to cultivating in seclusion, he still found that fighting was more helpful in increasing his strength.


    ¡°So that¡¯s what a true dragon is like?¡± Ge Li¡¯s novelty was gone. ¡°There was nothing to be afraid of!¡±


    ¡°Yes! This is what a so-called true dragon is like! Right, do you want to go to the Dragon Palace to take a look?¡±


    Compared to Ge Li, he had no respect for the so-called true dragons.


    No matter how strong the Black Prince was, he was now a cold corpse.


    ¡°Dragon Palace!?¡±


    Ge Li¡¯s eyes immediately lit up when she heard the words ¡®Dragon Palace¡¯.


    She had never been to the Dragon Palace. She didn¡¯t even get close to it.


    Ge Li was afraid of being discovered since she was born, let alone getting close to the Dragon Palace.


    However, as an aquatic creature, she had a lot of yearning for the Dragon Palace.


    ¡°It¡¯s a bit dangerous!¡±


    However, when she thought about the Dragon Palace¡¯s power, Ge Li was a bit hesitant.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay. I have a way to clear the Dragon Palace. You can visit it alone!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s lips curled into a smile, and there was a hint of madness in his eyes.


    2


    ¡°Really? I love you so much, Zhou Feng!¡±


    Ge Li almost jumped up when she heard his words.


    If she could visit the Dragon Palace alone without anyone disturbing her, she would dare to leave the Arcane Ink Space and wander around.


    ¡°Of course! But before that, I need to make some preparations. I can¡¯t go to the Dragon Palace right now.¡±


    The so-called preparations were actually to continue to improve his strength.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current strength was enough to protect himself against an Ascendant but not enough to face a ruthless person like the Dragon King.


    Before that, he needed to continue improving himself.


    One day, the weather was clear¡­


    The Vortex Mystic Realm, which had attracted the attention of all the cultivators of the Eastern Sea, finally opened.


    When the Vortex Mystic Realm opened, the originally calm Eastern Sea suddenly became turbulent.


    The opening of the Vortex Mystic Realm directly affected the originally calm sea.


    This kind of situation might not be a big deal in the eyes of cultivators, but it was a disaster in the eyes of ordinary aquatic creatures.


    Not to mention that many powerful aquatic creatures planned to fish in troubled waters.


    There were already conflicts between some aquatic creatures. Previously, they were able to settle down because of the suppression of the Dragon Palace and because they had no chance to take revenge.


    But now, most of the Eastern Sea cultivators, including the Dragon Palace¡¯s daemons, had entered the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    If they didn¡¯t take advantage of this opportunity, it would be a waste of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.


    Therefore, all kinds of massacres were carried out in the Eastern Sea.


    Zhou Feng was also among them. He didn¡¯t even need to take the initiative to look for trouble.


    As long as he hung a fake Arcane Ink Pearl around his neck, someone would take the initiative to look for trouble with him.


    Just now, Zhou Feng swung his fist and ruthlessly smashed an aquatic creature who challenged him to death.


    Flesh purification! Longevity substances! And all kinds of treasures!


    In the next second, they were all plundered!


    During this process, his passive Human Slayer, Soul Harvesting, and so on became more powerful.


    Moreover, Zhou Feng did not conceal this at all.


    He was already somewhat famous in this sea region.


    ¡°The mineral vein¡¯s location is up ahead! I hope I can find it this time!¡±


    Not far ahead, there was another gold ore vein.


    In order to complete the Immortal Gold Bones, he had been searching for rare ores, but his progress was a little slow.


    Of course, other than that, Zhou Feng was also searching for all sorts of materials and techniques.


    He didn¡¯t even bother to hide it, directly barging into the aquatic tribe¡¯s regions and smashing open their treasuries.


    1


    He collected all sorts of techniques and techniques and stored them in the AI.


    If he came across some precious materials, he would collect them.


    That was how crazy he was! That was how reckless he was!


    After all, Zhou Feng had set the tone previously, to act but not die! As long as he didn¡¯t die, he would court death!

 Chapter 610 - The Great Dao of Karma

    ¡°The Dragon Palace really offered the Deepsea Nether Iron as a reward?¡±


    ¡°Yes! To be honest, I was quite shocked at first!¡±


    ¡°But it¡¯s true! The Dragon Palace can¡¯t spare any manpower because of the Vortex Mystic Realm!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The Seven Star Pavilion was in disbelief after receiving the bounty mission from the Dragon Palace.


    That was because the reward was Deepsea Nether Iron, a top-tier material used to forge treasures.


    This material had to be formed in the deep sea, and it had to be in a place where there was a lot of resentment.


    Under normal circumstances, if one wanted to accumulate resentment in a place, they would need a large number of corpses to pile up.


    However, it was not easy to pile up corpses in the sea, not to mention that there were all kinds of aquatic creatures in the deep sea.


    The most terrifying thing was that some of the deepsea areas had real monsters guarding them.


    A top-tier material like the Deepsea Nether Iron was equivalent to a legend on land.


    Only a few aquatic creatures had obtained it.


    Therefore, when the Dragon Palace took out such a good item as a reward, the entire Seven Star Pavilion was shocked.


    The Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s divination technique had a huge demand for the Deepsea Nether Iron.


    Apart from a large amount of it, the Deepsea Nether Iron also had a very powerful function, which was to be able to resist backlash.


    In a sense, the practice of divination was to come into contact with the great Dao of Karma.


    The great Dao of Karma was known as the most unpredictable great Dao.


    Every time you thought that you had mastered the great Dao of Karma, the inexplicable karma would finally make you suffer a great loss.


    However, the ability to control karma and predict the future attracted countless cultivators.


    Therefore, all kinds of cultivators who practiced the great Dao of Karma began to look for various ways.


    At first, these people chose to study all kinds of divine abilities to avoid disaster or to divert karma.


    Later, they found that when faced with great karma, this method of avoiding disaster simply didn¡¯t work.


    This was because to those great cultivators, they themselves were a huge source of karma. Just changing a little bit would immediately cause them great misfortune.


    Therefore, these people began to experiment to see if they could use some kind of item or treasure to replace suffering karmic retribution.


    Then, all kinds of karmic treasures appeared. The most famous one should be the substitution treasures that appeared once in a blue moon in ancient times.


    It could be said that many substitution treasures today were imitations.


    The substitution treasures from ancient times were woven with Sacrificial Grass that interweaved life and death.


    The laws of the great Dao of Karma contained within could really resurrect a person, ignoring all restrictions and without any conditions.


    ¡°If I get my hands on the Deep Sea Nether iron, then I¡¯ll have gathered the last ingredient of the Seven Star Compass!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    ¡°In other words, there is hope for our Seven Star Pavilion to revive?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    The old man and the young man from the Seven Star Pavilion stared with their eyes wide open while the other sighed.


    Old Man Seven Stars naturally understood that the Deepsea Nether Iron was the last ingredient of the Seven Star Compass.


    However, according to the laws of the great Dao of Karma, obtaining such a top-tier ingredient would require a huge disaster.


    The Seven Star Pavilion couldn¡¯t afford to suffer anymore.


    There were only two people left in the once-mighty sect.


    The entire sect had exchanged for a pile of top-tier refining materials.


    ¡°Right! Master! What are the people of the Dragon Palace doing? Why are they willing to take out the Deepsea Nether Iron?¡±


    Looking at the Old Man Seven Stars with a worried expression, Dao Yan quickly changed the topic.


    His childish voice seemed to reveal a trace of innocence.


    But in fact, Dao Yan was the most talented person among the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s disciples.


    He was born with the Hazard Physique and was most suitable to cultivate divination techniques and pursue the great Dao of Karma.


    ¡°What else can happen? It¡¯s those heaven¡¯s favorites left behind from ancient times!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars looked disdainful.


    It turned out that the Dragon Palace originally wanted to use some of their strength to deal with Zhou Feng.


    They also wanted to show off in front of the old Dragon King.


    However, something unexpected happened in the Vortex Mystic Realm. An unfamiliar space was discovered.


    What followed was the surging Azure Qi. A heaven¡¯s favorite from ancient times was discovered.


    Moreover, this heaven¡¯s favorite was actually a dragon, a young Azure Dragon!


    It was precisely because of this that even the old Dragon King, who had not appeared for a long time, was alarmed.


    He only needed to take two breaths of the pure Azure Qi, and his whole body would feel relaxed. It also had the effect of prolonging his life.


    But at this time, the news of Zhou Feng causing trouble everywhere reached the Dragon Palace.


    After learning that not only did Zhou Feng not hide, but he was also openly robbing the major aquatic tribes¡¯ treasuries, the Dragon Palace immediately exploded with anger. No cultivator had ever dared to behave atrociously in the Eastern Sea.


    They knew that they had offended the Dragon Palace, but they still acted so arrogantly. If the Dragon Palace continued to be so indifferent.


    In the eyes of the major aquatic tribes, the Dragon Palace¡¯s supreme prestige would probably be lost.


    It was because of this background that the Dragon Palace found the Seven Star Pavilion.


    They even took out a top-tier material, the Deepsea Nether Iron because Zhou Feng was not easy to deal with. The death of the Black Prince had already shown that those below the Ascendance realm should not provoke Zhou Feng in the end.


    Meanwhile, the Ascendants of the Dragon Palace were all gathered in the Vortex Mystic Realm. If they did not find outside help, they would have to wait for a while. After all, the Deepsea Nether Iron was only given after the mission was completed.


    If the Seven Star Pavilion did not complete the mission, the Dragon Palace would not need to pay anything.


    They only needed to find someone else to accomplish it.


    ¡°Azure Dragon?¡±


    Dao Yan seemed to be very surprised, and a chessboard appeared in his eyes.


    He started to calculate subconsciously.


    But halfway through the calculation, a stone under his feet suddenly exploded.


    ¡°Stop! That Azure Dragon is not simple!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars saw this and immediately stopped Dao Yan.


    No matter how much Old Man Seven Stars looked down on the heaven¡¯s favorites left from ancient times, the Azure Dragon was not an ordinary fellow.


    If one made a hasty calculation, it might very well cause trouble even though they were on Seven Star Island and had a large number of Karma Stones around them that could transfer karma.


    ¡°It¡¯s indeed not simple! He actually plans on faking his death!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s bright eyes instantly dimmed as if they were covered with a layer of dust.


    Just now, he had used his divination technique to forcefully deduce the information of the Azure Dragon and even triggered the great Dao of Karma, thus prying into some secret information.


    Of course, the price he had to pay was this pair of eyes.


    In reality, if it weren¡¯t for the fact that the Seven Star Island was made up of Karma Stones, just taking it was enough to take half of Dao Yan¡¯s life.


    ¡°Your Calamity-Eluding Technique¡­¡±


    When Old Man Seven Stars saw Dao Yan¡¯s eyes brighten up again, he couldn¡¯t help but be a little surprised.


    He recovered so quickly?


    Old Man Seven Stars didn¡¯t expect that this disciple in front of him was actually so outstanding. His Calamity-Eluding Technique had already been cultivated to perfection.


    He had even separated it from karma in an extremely short period.


    One had to know that the information that Dao Yan had just obtained could very easily affect the Azure Dragon¡¯s destiny. This was huge karma.


    Dao Yan used less than ten seconds to completely cut through such huge karma.


    ¡®Such talent¡­¡¯


    ¡°No! I¡¯m still a little short! This is only because I said here on Seven Star Island that if this news were to spread, the karma that I would bear would be even greater!¡±


    Dao Yan did not become complacent but lightly explained.


    Even so, Old Man Seven Stars still sighed in his heart.


    This was the first time he felt that this disciple of his could already take charge of his destiny.

 Chapter 611 - Spied on!

    The great Dao of Karma!


    Cultivating this great Dao would allow one to know many more secrets than ordinary cultivators.


    However, the more secrets one knew, the stronger the backlash from karma would be.


    There were even times when one accidentally learned the secrets of some heaven¡¯s favorites, and the huge karma couldn¡¯t be transferred at all.


    Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars were the only two cultivators left in the Seven Star Pavilion.


    One had to know that back then, the Seven Star Pavilion was famous throughout the Eastern Land, and its elite disciples started at 3,000.


    But now, there were only two left.


    The great Dao of Karma wasn¡¯t easy to come into contact with.


    Of course, the Pavilion Master of the Seven Star Pavilion also discovered it.


    The great Dao of Karma wasn¡¯t suitable for ordinary people to come into contact with. The model of an ordinary sect wasn¡¯t suitable for the Seven Star Pavilion at all.


    Becoming an elite was the way out for the Seven Star Pavilion.


    Using all of its resources to nurture a true monster was the key to the Seven Star Pavilion being able to pass on its legacy.


    Thus, the Seven Star Pavilion became a one-child sect. Every generation only had one master and one disciple.


    1


    Under such a model, although the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s members became fewer and fewer, they really became stronger and stronger.


    However, all of this was destroyed by a group of people from the Central Plains. That group of evildoers who wantonly displayed their talents crushed everything.


    The Seven Star Pavilion was also forced to come to the Eastern Sea at that time. They wanted to rise again with the last of their sect¡¯s resources.


    This Seven Star Island was one of the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s resources. The entire island was made up of Karma Stones.


    What was a Karma Stone?


    Karma Stones did not exist naturally. Instead, they were a type of special stone that humans had refined.


    The hardness of this stone was not much different from ordinary stones.


    However, this stone had a very magical effect. It could transfer karma and reduce the backlash of karma by 90%.


    To be honest, the appearance of the Karma Stone had saved cultivators who cultivated the great Dao of Karma.


    The Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s ancestors had relied on this Karma Stone to make a fortune. They constantly probed into the secrets of various sects and then continuously calculated the locations of various treasures.


    They directly absorbed a large number of resources and cultivation techniques.


    What they paid was only a pile of stones and their lifespan.


    With the help of a large number of resources, the Seven Star Pavilion continuously created all sorts of techniques. Even their disaster-eluding techniques were perfected.


    From the fact that the entire island was filled with Karma Stones, one could tell just how rich the Seven Star Pavilion was back then.


    This was still the case when they fled and lost most of their resources.


    Of course, cultivating the great Dao of Karma wasn¡¯t without flaws. Old Man Seven Stars and Dao Yan wouldn¡¯t have to coop up in the Eastern Sea all the time if there weren¡¯t any flaws.


    In the end, it was actually the problem of the backlash of karma.


    Although the backlash of karma could be avoided in various ways or even transferred, the most important thing was that the karma that was formed would not disappear.


    It would only accumulate and wait for an opportunity to explode.


    For example, when cultivating, one would be possessed by their inner demons, or one would have bad luck during a certain period of time.


    When the Seven Star Pavilion absorbed a large number of cultivation resources and cultivation techniques, they also accumulated a large amount of karma.


    In the past few decades, Old Man Seven Stars and Dao Yan didn¡¯t even dare to leave the Seven Star Island.


    They were afraid that the accumulated karma would explode in an instant.


    It wasn¡¯t until a few years ago when a few almighty cultivators died and the karma dissipated that they were able to leave the Seven Star Island again.


    The source of karma disappeared, so the karma that was formed naturally also disappeared.


    The Seven Star Pavilion had always done this, forming a large amount of karma and then using various methods to temporarily avoid it.


    In the end, the one who endured until the source of karma died due to the exhaustion of one¡¯s lifespan.


    Simply put, they would form countless grudges, then hide and wait until the enemy died before coming out.


    This kind of cultivation technique was considered unique.


    Another point was that under this state of karma entanglement, it was much easier to comprehend the great Dao of Karma.


    With this, the inheritance of the Seven Star Pavilion was extremely stable.


    ¡°So, have you calculated the target this time?¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars changed the topic back to Zhou Feng.


    Since the Dragon Palace was willing to pay such a huge price, they naturally had to deal with some bad guys.


    Most of the karma of the Seven Star Pavilion was entangled with Old Man Seven Stars, so Dao Yan was usually the one to calculate or spy on the enemy.


    ¡°This target¡­ is a bit strange!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s brows gradually furrowed, and the Karma Stone under his feet began to crack.


    The more he followed the karmic line to pry into Zhou Feng¡¯s secrets, the greater the pressure on himself.


    Especially when Dao Yan wanted to pry into Zhou Feng¡¯s core secret, the terrifying backlash almost swallowed him in an instant.


    That feeling was like a raging river crashing into him.


    There was no other way. Dao Yan could only pry into some information that was not that important.


    ¡°Strange?¡±


    Upon seeing his precious disciple in such a state, Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ expression became solemn as he formed a seal with both hands.


    The rare stars in the sky shone faintly.


    The star power was poured in to assist Dao Yan in his deduction.


    At that moment, the entire Seven Star Island seemed to have come to life.


    The great Dao of Karma slowly descended in the dark, and the atmosphere became solemn.


    ¡°The great Dao of Slaughter? The great Dao of Earth? No! And¡­ The great Dao of Longevity? What is all this!?¡±


    Dao Yan was instantly overwhelmed by a huge amount of information.


    In his eyes, Zhou Feng seemed to have cultivated countless great Daos.


    Furthermore, this was not just a simple encounter. Zhou Feng had truly grasped a technique by comprehending the laws of the great Dao.


    Messy! But powerful!


    He even dabbled in the Dao of Divination? What kind of enemy was this?


    ¡°Wait! This person actually came from the Southern Border? Impossible! This person¡¯s cultivation¡­¡±


    As he learned more information about Zhou Feng, the shock on Dao Yan¡¯s face grew stronger and stronger.


    However, in the next second, he could no longer continue to pry.


    That was because Zhou Feng had discovered him! Furthermore, his karmic lines had been forcefully severed!


    Countless karmic forces began to entangle with his location.


    The Heaven-Concealing Formation set up on Seven Star Island did not have much effect at all. The karmic forces were simply too enormous.


    It was so enormous that it was inconceivable!


    ¡°What¡¯s going on!?¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars was shocked when he saw Dao Yan spit out blood.


    He immediately activated the formation to provide protection for Dao Yan.


    ¡­


    ¡°Someone is spying on me? And it¡¯s very clever!¡±


    Zhou Feng absorbed all the refined gold he had collected, and the place where the skull was was slightly itchy.


    As expected, the Dragon Palace was finally going to make a move after he had been acting lawlessly for so long.


    If the AI hadn¡¯t reminded him just now, he wouldn¡¯t have realized that someone was spying on him.


    That method was extremely clever, and it wasn¡¯t Zhou Feng¡¯s core information that he was spying on.


    Plus, he was very relaxed in the Arcane Ink Space, so he was taken advantage of.


    Fortunately, he immediately urged the longevity substances, and the feeling of spying instantly disappeared.


    The longevity substances were peculiar. In addition to the longevity and attack, they even provided a shielding effect.

 Chapter 612 - Target: Subduing Zhou Feng!

    Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t surprised that someone was spying on him.


    After all, he had robbed so many aquatic tribes¡¯ treasuries, and the Dragon Palace was still the master of the Eastern Sea.


    They should have taken action long ago.


    What surprised him was why the Dragon Palace had reacted so slowly. It was as if something had attracted their attention.


    ¡°But this method¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was more concerned about the method used by the people who were spying on him.


    It was so covert and quiet. If it weren¡¯t for the AI¡¯s data analysis, he wouldn¡¯t have noticed it. He didn¡¯t even realize that someone was spying on him in the dark.


    In this regard, Zhou Feng planned to use the same method to change everything.


    In any case, with his current strength, he could still run if he couldn¡¯t win. He didn¡¯t need to worry about any accidents at all.


    He continued to wander around the Eastern Sea, collecting enough ores and transforming all the bones in his body into Immortal Golden Bones.


    In the meantime, he began to look for a method to break through to the Ascendance realm.


    Currently, he was at the Dao Comprehension sub-realm, and it was time to consider breaking through to the Ascendance realm.


    To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, Zhou Feng wouldn¡¯t have any clue about breaking through to the Ascendance realm at all.


    Perhaps he could find some incomplete information on how to comprehend the Dao.


    However, from the Ascendance realm onwards, Zhou Feng could not find any information at all.


    He had no idea what the Ascendance realm was all about.


    It was only through the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence that he forcefully comprehended that the Ascendance realm had to do with undergoing a transformation.


    The first chance to transcend was also the beginning of shedding the mortal coil.


    In the absence of any techniques or information, even if he had the heaven-defying passive Heaven Rewards Diligence, he had no way to break into the Ascendance realm by force.


    To be honest, Zhou Feng was already thinking about how to obtain the techniques of the Dragon Palace and the Daemon Alliance to break into the Ascendance realm.


    It seemed to be a little difficult to snatch it by force.


    After all, cultivation heritage was the most important thing for cultivators. It was too difficult to snatch it by force.


    So, what should he do?


    ¡­


    While Zhou Feng was thinking hard, Dao Yan had already recovered.


    ¡°As expected, the Dragon Palace wouldn¡¯t take out such a treasure for nothing!¡±


    After spending a lot of effort, Dao Yan finally transferred a lot of karma.


    Although he had to pay a price for it, it was still worth it.


    He had obtained a large amount of basic information about Zhou Feng and even had a rough understanding of Zhou Feng¡¯s personality.


    This was the power of the Seven-Star Karmic Curse!


    Directly collecting all the information through the karmic threads didn¡¯t require time and effort to investigate, nor did he need to waste energy to verify.


    The information collected through the karmic thread was the most accurate information.


    However, if it was any other cultivator, they would not be willing to collect information through this method.


    The price to pay was to bear a large amount of karma. From the beginning of the Ascendance realm, karma would become the most annoying issue.


    Under the entanglement of karma, one did not even know when they would encounter a great disaster.


    One would also not know if it was because of the karma that had been formed previously that caused the opportunity to be lost.


    ¡°So, where did this person come from?¡±


    When Old Man Seven Stars saw that Dao Yan¡¯s aura had calmed down, he relaxed.


    ¡°Master! He was a mortal without any background and almost no resources, and he obtained a legacy!


    ¡°He cultivated to the Dao Comprehension sub-realm in less than three years!¡±


    Dao Yan, who had a calm expression, could not help but smile bitterly when he said this.


    ¡°What did you say? A mortal? In less than three years!?¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars was a little shocked when he saw Dao Yan¡¯s shocked expression.


    ¡°That¡¯s right!¡±


    ¡°Are you serious? There aren¡¯t any opportunities?¡±


    ¡°Compared to this kind of experience, those opportunities aren¡¯t even worth mentioning!¡±


    ¡°T-This person¡­ is unbelievable!¡±


    Although Dao Yan did not explain in detail, Old Man Seven Stars knew that what he said was their target.


    This was because Dao Yan had no way of understanding the existence of passive skills through the Seven-Star Karmic Curse.


    The information that he had obtained was only some of the information that Zhou Feng had experienced.


    In Dao Yan¡¯s view, Zhou Feng was an out-and-out monster.


    A few years ago, he was still a mortal. In a few years, his cultivation had increased crazily, and he had narrowly escaped death.


    Once again, he even had a chance to die in this world, but in the end, he still managed to survive.


    His vitality was even more tenacious than the weeds on the side of the road.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng was reckless and overbearing. He was the representative of a hothead, but no one could stop him.


    Perhaps this was a heaven¡¯s favorite nurtured by the Southern Border, which had exhausted its last bit of luck?


    ¡°His battles are very reckless. It¡¯s a style of life-and-death battles. Once he makes a move, he won¡¯t hold back.


    ¡°What¡¯s scary is that this person¡¯s temperament is not affected by external factors at all.


    ¡°Moreover, this person doesn¡¯t have any attachments in this world. The karma on him is pitifully small¡­¡±


    1


    While Dao Yan was narrating Zhou Feng¡¯s various characteristics, he took out a pile of treasures.


    The more Old Man Seven Stars listened, the more alarmed he became.


    Especially when he heard that Zhou Feng had nothing to worry about, his brows furrowed even more tightly.


    People like Zhou Feng were really not easy to deal with.


    If it were other genius cultivators, they would have relatives, friends, or teachers.


    Karma was entwined around their bodies, and there was always a place that could be calculated. Then, with a little bit of planning and guidance, they could trap and kill a heaven¡¯s chosen. This was completely possible.


    He was afraid that someone like Zhou Feng would basically have no interaction with other people.


    Even if there were occasional interactions, they would not be able to shake his mind.


    ¡°The only flaw is that the luck of the peach blossom is somewhat vigorous!¡±


    Although Dao Yan had been trying to elevate Zhou Feng, he did not show any signs of backing down.


    Because in this world, no one could escape all kinds of restrictions.


    ¡°We start with love!¡±


    ¡°Love?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! Love is the word that traps people the most! Other than that, there are also benefits!¡±


    ¡°This person seems to be collecting some gold and ores!¡±


    The more Dao Yan spoke, the stronger the fighting spirit in his eyes became.


    Such a monster! Such a heaven¡¯s favorite! If he could kill him, wouldn¡¯t that mean that he had the qualifications to enter the Central Plains?


    Moreover, such a wild heaven¡¯s favorite could be said to be a rare sight in 10,000 years.


    If he could subdue him¡­


    At that moment, Dao Yan¡¯s ambition began to swell.


    If he could subdue Zhou Feng and distort his mind, wouldn¡¯t that be the best Dao Protector candidate?


    Also, if he were to fight with this kind of heaven¡¯s favorite, the entanglement of karma would become even more intense. At that time, it would also be of great help in comprehending the Dao of Karma.


    ¡°This time! I plan to personally make a move! After being silent for so long, it¡¯s time to make a move!¡±


    Furthermore, Dao Yan also planned to take action personally this time.


    After all, unlike Old Man Seven Stars, Dao Yan was still considered young. He did not wish to be trapped on Seven Star Island forever.


    He wanted to go outside and experience the splendor of the various heaven¡¯s favorites. He did not want to die of old age on this small island.


    3

 Chapter 613 - The Strange Laws of Karma!

    After learning of Zhou Feng¡¯s information, not only was Dao Yan not scared, but he was also excited.


    It was because of his competitive nature. Or it could be said that Dao Yan wanted to test his own strength.


    After all, he would eventually leave this place and compete with the geniuses of the Central Plains on the cultivation path.


    If he couldn¡¯t even surpass Zhou Feng, how could he defeat those exaggerated geniuses of the Central Plains?


    ¡°That¡¯s good! Shallow pools can¡¯t raise true dragons after all! I¡¯ll help you suppress most of the karma!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars naturally understood Dao Yan¡¯s thoughts.


    After hiding and accumulating for so long, it was impossible for him to continue hiding.


    This was because Dao Yan had too many karmic threads. If he left the Seven Star Island¡­


    Without the suppression of the formation, it wasn¡¯t an exaggeration to say that the endless laws of karma would instantly devour Dao Yan.


    This was the price to pay for using the laws of the Dao of Karma to pry into the secrets of others.


    ¡°Seven days! I can only delay for seven days at most! Perhaps after we obtain the Deepsea Nether Iron, we can completely get rid of this situation!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars gave Dao Yan a time limit.


    Dao Yan had to finish off Zhou Feng within these seven days.


    If he could not deal with Zhou Feng within these seven days, he had to return to Seven Star Island no matter the situation.


    Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    There was basically no other solution to solve this situation other than gathering the Deepsea Nether Iron and creating the Seven Star Compass.


    ¡°Enough! If it doesn¡¯t work, there might be another way to obtain the Deep Sea Nether Iron!¡±


    Dao Yan nodded slightly.


    In fact, it wasn¡¯t necessary for Dao Yan to be enemies with Zhou Feng.


    Because his ultimate goal was to get the Deepsea Nether Iron, and the Deepsea Nether Iron wasn¡¯t in Zhou Feng¡¯s hands but in the hands of the Dragon Palace.


    If he couldn¡¯t get rid of Zhou Feng, then he would get rid of the Dragon Palace.


    Now, the Dragon Palace was in a mess because of the appearance of the Azure Dragon.


    1


    ¡°Do as you see fit!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars didn¡¯t remind him too much. He was quite at ease with this disciple of his.


    ¡­


    ¡°Let¡¯s go! Let¡¯s go to the Dragon Palace!¡±


    Zhou Feng strolled around the Eastern Sea and finally realized that if he wanted to get rich overnight, he had to go to the Dragon Palace.


    The Dragon Palace had the old Dragon King in charge. They sat on the fishing platform and took in all the resources of the Eastern Sea.


    Their accumulation over the past thousands of years had reached an exaggerated level.


    In particular, there were all kinds of treasures. Compared to the major aquatic tribes, they definitely had the most.


    Under such circumstances, why did he have to search everywhere?


    Moreover, his cultivation base had already reached a bottleneck. If he wanted to improve further, there should be no place besides the Dragon Palace with Ascendance-level cultivation techniques!


    ¡°Really?¡±


    Ge Li¡¯s eyes lit up instantly. She could feel Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had increased crazily during this period.


    This kind of increase in strength might be shocking to others.


    However, in Ge Li¡¯s eyes, it was a sense of security.


    The stronger Zhou Feng was, the safer she was. Ge Li even suspected that Zhou Feng could even exchange a few moves with the Dragon King.


    ¡°Of course! We¡¯ve wasted too much time! If there are no accidents, we should leave the Easter Sea and head to the Central Plains.¡±


    He did not hide much from Ge Li and even told her the plan in advance.


    Ge Li didn¡¯t find this surprising.


    The Eastern Sea did not look like a place that could keep Zhou Feng.


    Since they had to hurry, Ge Li entered the Arcane Ink Space like before.


    Zhou Feng headed toward the Dragon Palace.


    This time, he didn¡¯t try to hide anything.


    His violent aura soared into the sky, and waves rose on the sea¡¯s calm surface.


    At this time, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength had reached a terrifying level.


    Dao Comprehension sub-realm! Passive skills with horrifying buffs! The successfully condensed Longevity bloodline!


    Under deliberate circumstances, the Blood Qi in his body was like a deep sea, sweeping in all directions.


    ¡°Seal!¡±


    However, when Zhou Feng erupted with his full strength, a clear and cold voice sounded from the horizon.


    This voice was very sudden! Zhou Feng had not expected it at all.


    Then, he felt as if his physical body had been sealed.


    This feeling was as if the flowing water had been suddenly frozen, but there was no obstruction to his thoughts.


    A figure slowly appeared.


    ¡°It¡¯s the first time we¡¯ve met!¡±


    Dao Yan had just left Seven Star Island when he found Zhou Feng.


    He wore a Daoist robe and held a purple jade horsetail whisk in his hand. His body emitted a mysterious and imposing aura.


    He clearly looked very young, but he gave off a calm feeling.


    Although when they were on Seven Star Island, Dao Yan had said that he wanted to use the emotional barrier to subdue Zhou Feng, he came looking for Zhou Feng as soon as he left Seven Star Island.


    This was because he still had some information to confirm.


    He needed more information about Zhou Feng.


    ¡°It¡¯s you!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly, and the power in his body grew leisurely. The Longevity Qi instantly broke through that inexplicable sealing power.


    A dazzling light flashed, and a suffocating power spread in all directions.


    ¡°Intercept!¡±


    Dao Yan seemed to have already expected Zhou Feng to make a move directly.


    Therefore, he looked very unhurried. He held the horsetail whisk in his left hand, and with a squeeze of his right hand, a black chess piece appeared in his hand.


    Zhou Feng immediately felt that the space he was in had been cut off.


    The starlight from the nine heavens slowly fell on his body.


    At some point in time, the surroundings had turned into a chessboard, and Zhou Feng himself had turned into a white chess piece.


    And beside him were a large number of black chess pieces.


    ¡°Did you know? With your talent, you¡¯re actually not inferior to some of the monsters in the Central Plains!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s expression was as if he had everything under control. At the same time, he clenched his right hand, and a black chess piece appeared.


    ¡°But unfortunately, you were born in the wrong place!¡±


    The moment he opened his mouth, Zhou Feng felt that this person seemed to know him very well.


    ¡®Is this the person who was spying on me earlier?¡¯


    The Longevity Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to stir and once again broke through that strange power.


    However, Dao Yan¡¯s actions followed.


    The timing was very good! Just as he forcefully broke through, a sealing power rose again.


    ¡°No inheritance! No cultivation resources! Your cultivation might stop here!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s words did not stop.


    As he spoke, there were still strands of starlight that started to silently infect the surroundings.


    The laws of the great Dao began to change everything in the vicinity.


    Dao Yan¡¯s every move seemed to be changing the laws. Moreover, with every word he said, Zhou Feng felt his body tighten.


    ¡°In the future, your cultivation will stagnate! You might waste countless years and finally become old!¡±


    As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body began to age strangely.


    This was something that was almost impossible to happen.


    Zhou Feng, who had the Longevity bloodline, would definitely not age even after a few hundred years.

 Chapter 614 - You Are My Opportunity!?

    As he spoke, Dao Yan forcefully used the Dao of Karma to implicate Zhou Feng.


    As the two intertwined, more secrets and information were obtained from Zhou Feng.


    However, Dao Yan would suffer a huge karmic backlash.


    After all, this technique was extremely dangerous. Someone who had nothing to do with it before would use the karmic threads to forcefully implicate him.


    In the end, he would take the opportunity to obtain a secret and cultivation technique.


    A large amount of karma would be generated from this.


    No wonder cultivators who pursued the Dao of Karma didn¡¯t have a good ending. They would encounter bad luck in their later years.


    By controlling karma like this, there was absolutely no possibility of a good ending when karma was entangled.


    ¡°Heavenly Classics of Longevity!?¡±


    Dao Yan took the opportunity to pry into Zhou Feng¡¯s secret.


    Although he couldn¡¯t know Zhou Feng¡¯s core secret yet, his cultivation technique was spied on.


    Fighting was never Dao Yan¡¯s goal.


    Prying into Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation technique was what Dao Yan wanted to do.


    Since Zhou Feng was able to cultivate to such a level in such a short time, his cultivation technique was definitely magical enough. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have reached such a high level.


    Collecting cultivation techniques was also something that the Seven Star Pavilion had been doing all along.


    Not to mention other things, Dao Yan had learned a lot of top-tier divine abilities.


    This was because cultivating the Dao of Karma would not directly increase one¡¯s battle prowess.


    And in the cultivation world, no matter how one calculated, it would be broken by force if one did not have sufficient strength.


    Therefore, the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s patriarch had set up a series of cultivation sequences.


    With the Great Dao of Karma as the core, he gathered a large number of cultivation resources and cultivation techniques.


    Finally, he forcefully used resources to increase his own strength.


    To put it more simply, he was a Kryptonite warrior!


    He ate all kinds of spirit fruits and herbs in unlimited amounts, regardless of digestion efficiency.


    He relied on all kinds of spirit items to comprehend divine abilities, such as the Dao Enlightenment Pill and the Dao Enlightenment Incense.


    With so many resources piled up, as long as one¡¯s aptitude was not low, one could almost be comparable to a top genius cultivator.


    It was not unreasonable for the Seven Star Pavilion to only have two people now.


    In any case, the core of the Seven Star Pavilion consisted of all sorts of means of avoiding disaster and life-saving techniques. As long as one did not die, one could obtain resources and techniques by owing karma.


    Then, they could rely on their long lives to slowly wear out all kinds of karmic ties.


    If they really could not avoid it in the end, they would take in a talented disciple and share half of the karma.


    Why did Old Man Seven Stars place so much importance on Dao Yan? Logically speaking, was it not good for one person to enjoy all the resources of the Seven Star Pavilion?


    The so-called inheritance was not something that everyone would care about. What bullshit sect inheritance? Anyway, there was only one person left.


    He was the sect. Whether he passed it down or not was actually up to him.


    Perhaps at the beginning, the several generations of sect masters of the Seven Star Pavilion still had the idea of passing on the inheritance.


    But later on, because they had not experienced the so-called glory of the sect, the sense of honor of the sect was not strong.


    It was almost impossible to make a cultivator run around for the inheritance of an illusory sect.


    And the Seven Star Pavilion was able to pass on the inheritance all the time because the disciple could share the karma.


    Furthermore, they could be reincarnated safely without fear of revenge after they died.


    The benefits between the master and the disciple were bound.


    ¡°Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance?¡±


    When Dao Yan learned that Zhou Feng had Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, he couldn¡¯t remain calm.


    Previously, Dao Yan didn¡¯t know how Zhou Feng could break through so quickly.


    Normally speaking, even if Zhou Feng¡¯s talent was monstrous, it was impossible for him to cultivate to such a level in just a few years.


    So it was because he had obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    At that moment, Dao Yan was somewhat glad that he had taken the initiative to find Zhou Feng.


    If not for this, he might have had to say goodbye to Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    Zhou Feng instantly realized that something wasn¡¯t right and immediately roared in anger.


    He clenched his fists tightly, and the Longevity Qi surged.


    Longevity Steps!


    His physical body arrived in an instant, and a simple attack seemed to shatter the entire space.


    ¡°Freeze!¡±


    Unfortunately, Dao Yan¡¯s physical body disappeared.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s violent attack missed!


    Furthermore, Dao Yan¡¯s voice sounded once again.


    A few stars were particularly eye-catching in the nine heavens.


    ¡°Fake?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly and casually broke free from the suppressive force.


    Dao Yan was just a projection?


    His real body wasn¡¯t here. Was this just a probe? What was the purpose of this?


    All sorts of questions instantly surged into Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    At that moment, he realized that the person in front of him was somewhat different. Not only was he extremely familiar with him, but he was also difficult to deal with.


    ¡°Haha! An opportunity! So the opportunity that I¡¯ve been waiting for for so long is you!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s eyes were burning as he stared at Zhou Feng.


    The starlight around him became more and more obvious. At the same time, countless figures were refracted in different directions.


    ¡°Karma is surging! Destiny is fluctuating! So you¡¯re the key to me breaking out of this situation!¡±


    Why did Dao Yan suddenly burst out laughing? It turned out that just now, he felt the power of karma begin to stir, and the extremely weak destiny power also began to rise.


    At this time, Dao Yan knew that this was the opportunity he had been waiting for.


    The Seven Star Pavilion had already entered a dead end.


    The karma accumulated over the years weighed down on Old Man Seven Stars and Dao Yan.


    After the Seven Star Divination, Dao Yan knew that he would welcome an opportunity in the near future.


    An opportunity to reverse everything. When that time came, not only would he be able to get rid of the enormous pressure of karma, but he would also be able to gather up the lost destiny power.


    Manipulating karma was naturally not something that the Heavenly Dao liked. Hence, Dao Yan¡¯s luck was extremely low from the start of his cultivation.


    Not to mention fortuitous encounters, when his cultivation was insufficient, he might even fall by accident.


    His luck was maintained in a low-key manner all year round, and he only had one chance to bounce back in his life.


    And this chance was Zhou Feng. The faint movement of his luck was captured by Dao Yan.


    ¡°Sea-filling power!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t care what Dao Yan said, and the Blood Qi in his body exploded again.


    Divine light burst out from his body, and the Longevity Qi surrounded him, making rumbling sounds as if an ancient god was roaring.


    Sea-Filling power! This was comprehended from the divine ability, Mountain-Pushing and Sea-Filling.


    It had to be said that it was really easy to comprehend a divine ability with the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence.


    In order to make up for the lack of attack power, he had specially comprehended and created this divine ability.


    This divine ability didn¡¯t have any other special characteristics! It could be described with one word: Crush!


    Crush everything with pure power!


    Threads of the laws of the Physical Dao appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and at the same time, countless laws began to resonate.


    The starlight chessboard that had been surrounding him was instantly swept away.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body began to display an invincible aura, and the entire surrounding sea area was overturned.


    Dao Yan¡¯s figure was instantly destroyed.


    ¡°How terrifying! But¡­¡±


    But even so, Dao Yan still managed to dodge Zhou Feng¡¯s attack.


    He was still chattering non-stop, but this time, Zhou Feng did not wait for him to finish speaking before he used his invincible aura to crush everything.

 Chapter 615 - Escape

    The Physical Dao¡¯s power spread throughout Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Moreover, the power he could unleash was unlimited because he could freely allow the Physical Dao to flow through his body.


    The Physical Dao! This was of the purest of the great Daos.


    If one wanted to control the Physical Dao, the first requirement was to have an incomparably strong body.


    Without an invincible body, one would not be qualified to control the Physical Dao.


    This was also why there were so few cultivators who had comprehended the Physical Dao, even fewer than those who had comprehended the great Daos of Space and Time.


    It was challenging to improve and temper one¡¯s body beyond their limits.


    Not to mention to improve one¡¯s body to be able to withstand the power of the laws of the Physical Dao.


    If one had the time, they might as well comprehend the great Daos of Space and Time.


    From ancient times until now, perhaps only the first Human Emperor was famous for cultivating the Physical Dao.


    Now, Zhou Feng was also on the path of comprehending the Physical Dao because he found that with his conditions, he seemed to have many advantages in comprehending the Physical Dao.


    First of all, there was the perk of the endurance of the physical body.


    From the beginning of his cultivation, Zhou Feng had not obtained any heaven-defying treasures, nor did he have a special background and inheritance.


    He had long been used to polishing his physical body to a masochistic extent.


    Not to mention that his Immortal Golden Bones were almost completed, and his physical body was powerful.


    Then, he also had an almost invincible recovery ability. The backlash produced by controlling the Physical Dao could be nullified in just a few breaths.


    It was a pity that Zhou Feng did not pursue the Physical Dao, however.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body shone with pure light. That invincible power destroyed everything in the surroundings.


    ¡°This!¡±


    Dao Yan felt that the surroundings had become dangerous.


    The starlight chessboard that he had laid down was originally very difficult to defeat because it was mainly made up of karma and starlight as a supplement.


    Under normal circumstances, it was impossible to crack it. It was just a few lines drawn by starlight.


    Even if one wanted to crack it, they didn¡¯t have that method.


    It was precisely because of such a unique characteristic that Dao Yan was able to gain the upper hand in the battle just now.


    Under this starlight chessboard, Zhou Feng¡¯s every move was completely bound by the karma threads.


    In other words, Dao Yan knew what Zhou Feng wanted to do first.


    Then, he would slowly set up his counterattack and respond.


    This divine ability was the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s trump card.


    However, what Dao Yan never expected was that Zhou Feng would use raw strength to break the starlight chessboard.


    It was this raw strength that directly destroyed it, causing Dao Yan not to even have the time to counterattack and adjust.


    If Zhou Feng was using other methods, Dao Yan could still counter him and make adjustments at any time.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s raw strength could crush everything, so he could only watch helplessly.


    The Physical Dao was that overbearing! There was almost no way to counter it.


    Unless your power could counter it, any method would be useless.


    Emperor Pan had relied on his raw strength to subdue the 10,000 races and defeat countless geniuses and ancient demonic gods.


    Everyone had to compare their strength with Emperor Pan. Was your strength lacking? Sorry, you could only wait for death.


    However, once the Physical Dao encountered a situation where the two sides were almost on par, it would immediately fall at a disadvantage.


    The Physical Dao had always been straightforward and lacked changes. If the two sides were equal in strength, the side that cultivated the Physical Dao would definitely be at a disadvantage.


    However, this was not a problem with the Physical Dao but a problem with people.


    Who asked you to have a lackluster comprehension of the laws of the great Physical Dao!?


    ¡®I found it!¡¯


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed. The instant the starlight chessboard shattered, he had found Dao Yan¡¯s trail.


    Dao Yan used the starlight chessboard as a cover, so he was able to continuously dodge.


    Now, Zhou Feng wanted to see how Dao Yan was going to dodge.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s raw strength surged. There were no fancy tricks, only direct crushing intent.


    With such raw strength intending to crush Dao Yan, he did not even have the space to dodge. It was just like the arrival of a glorious sun.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Dao Yan only felt his entire body being crushed. The intense pain made him unable to help but cry out.


    Was this the feeling of pain?


    Ever since he cultivated the Dao of Karma, he had never felt any pain. Or rather, he did not even have the concept of being injured.


    After all, Dao Yan had lived on Seven Star Island for decades and basically had no experience of a frontal battle.


    In the past, he only needed to slowly calculate through the Dao of Karma to be able to finish off the enemies one by one.


    Even if he needed to fight head-on, no one could defeat the starlight chessboard.


    Not to mention that Zhou Feng had defeated the starlight chessboard in an instant and even accurately found him.


    ¡°Great Karma Technique!¡±


    Dao Yan quickly regained his rationality. He took a deep breath, and the power of karma slowly surged.


    In the next instant, Dao Yan and Zhou Feng felt a sense of distance.


    They were clearly close, but it gave people a feeling that they could never touch.


    Dao Yan forcefully used the power of karma to separate himself from Zhou Feng.


    The cause and effect of both parties went from tangling to not interfering with each other.


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    Zhou Feng also felt that subtle feeling.


    However, he did not stop. An invincible aura slowly rose up, and his gaze was one that looked down on the world.


    His physical body began to crack slowly. This physical body was ultimately unable to withstand the terrifying pressure brought about by the laws of the Physical Dao.


    Hence, the Golden Immortal Bones slowly appeared.


    Compared to his body, the Golden Immortal Bones with traces of Immortal Qi were able to withstand the pressure.


    Dao Yan¡¯s hair stood on end as Zhou Feng threw a punch.


    ¡®Karma isolation has lost its effect!?¡¯


    ¡°Too careless! Such a monster¡­¡±


    The piercing pain caused Dao Yan to wake up completely, and his arrogance vanished without a trace.


    He had thought that he could suppress everything as soon as he came out of the mountain after decades of bitter cultivation on the Seven Star Island.


    In fact, he had overestimated himself.


    He was no match for Zhou Feng in a head-on fight. He still needed other methods to win.


    Although he was a little defeated in the face of such a monstrous Zhou Feng, he was not timid.


    Instead, a surge of arrogance surged up in his heart. He wanted to tame Zhou Feng even more now. With such a helper by his side, he would be much safer when he went to the Central Plains in the future.


    Up until now, Dao Yan did not think that he was far inferior to Zhou Feng.


    There was still a chance!


    ¡°Go!¡±


    At that moment, Dao Yan¡¯s entire body was on the verge of collapse. However, the moment he used that Calamity-Eluding Technique, he was still able to easily get rid of Zhou Feng¡¯s entanglement.


    ¡°Seven Stars Transposition!¡±


    Starlight shone above his head, and Dao Yan¡¯s body instantly reached the horizon.


    Before Zhou Feng could catch up, the sea below suddenly erupted, and a strong ominous aura crashed into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    There was no sign at all!


    Even before the AI could warn him, Zhou Feng was directly hit.


    ¡°This person¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng did not chase after him immediately.


    Firstly, because of the huge pressure of the Physical Dao¡¯s laws, he had to recover from his injuries.


    Secondly, Dao Yan was slippery, and his escape technique was proficient. Even if he chased after him, he might not be able to catch up.


    Thirdly, Dao Yan had already been eroded by the anti-longevity substances. If Dao Yan did not have some heaven-defying methods, he might not survive the night.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not chase after him. Instead, he stood in place and welcomed the changes that had happened here.

 Chapter 616 - Impossible!

    ¡°How troublesome! What is this thing?¡±


    Dao Yan kept frowning as he felt the anti-longevity substances continuously eroding his body.


    Moreover, the strangest thing was that these anti-longevity substances contained traces of a great Dao¡¯s laws.


    According to Dao Yan¡¯s calculations, this was actually related to the Dao of Longevity.


    ¡°How is this possible!? This substance?¡±


    Upon realizing that these substances were related to the Dao of Longevity, Dao Yan instantly changed his mind.


    Originally, he wanted to expel these anti-longevity substances, but now he might be able to study them.


    ¡°They also have the effect of positioning¡­ It¡¯s really amazing!¡±


    Dao Yan calmed down and found that Zhou Feng was really difficult to deal with.


    It could even be said that Zhou Feng was his bane. It was not easy to deal with this kind of raw strength suppression and that indestructible physique.


    Cultivators who cultivated the Dao of Karma were most afraid of fighting against cultivators like Zhou Feng.


    Their survivability was stretched to the maximum, and their attacks were also the type of power suppression.


    It was also very difficult to calculate this. Even if the calculation was successful, the effect would not be very good.


    ¡°Karma Transfer!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s eyes shot out, and he directly used the Karma Transfer Technique to transfer the anti-longevity substances in his body to other places.


    Karma Transfer! This was also a divine ability of the Seven Star Pavilion.


    Through the transfer of karma, one could transfer injuries or other things to other places.


    However, there was a limit to this transfer because of the karmic connection. No matter what, the caster of this technique would have to bear karmic retribution.


    After all, others had to bear karma that did not belong to them for no reason.


    Naturally, countless karmic ties would be formed. This was how cultivators who cultivated the Dao of Karma fought.


    After every big battle, they had to conceal their identities for a period to eliminate the huge amount of karmic power.


    Although such techniques were powerful, the price one had to pay was horrifying.


    That was unless they cultivated to the point they could forcefully distort karma.


    However, there were almost no such figures. From ancient times until now, the almighty cultivators who cultivated the Dao of Karma were all extremely low-key.


    ¡­


    The laws of the Dao of Karma manifested, and the karmic power was distorted.


    The anti-longevity substances that had been frantically corroding Dao Yan¡¯s body were transferred to the nearby aquatic tribe.


    ¡°What!? Ahhh!¡±


    ¡°What happened? What is this thing?¡±


    The aquatic creatures immediately felt uncomfortable and died on the spot.


    In contrast, Dao Yan felt much less pressure.


    On the other side¡­


    Zhou Feng encountered a strange thing.


    A half-human and half-ghost body rushed out from the bottom of the sea.


    This person¡¯s face was festering, and his appearance was not clear. His entire body was exuding an ominous aura.


    ¡°Pan¡­ Emperor Pan!?¡±


    His unclear words contained traces of anger.


    This person seemed to have mistaken Zhou Feng for someone else.


    ¡°Emperor Pan?¡±


    Zhou Feng quickly retreated as the AI warned him frantically.


    This person in front of him was dangerous, and he definitely could not get close to him.


    However, before he could react, the half-human half-ghost person in front of him self-destructed.


    In an instant, countless red strands of hair flew out in all directions as if they were growing rapidly.


    Zhou Feng came into contact with these red strands of hair. Unexpectedly, these were not long strands of hair but a condensed aura of decay!


    Moreover, it was an aura of decay that had been nurtured for hundreds of thousands of years.


    The place where he was standing before was actually an ancient seal that had existed for hundreds of thousands of years.


    If there were no accidents, this seal would slowly disappear, and the thing sealed inside would also disappear with it.


    However, Dao Yan knew about this seal, and he had used it to ensure his escape.


    Dao Yan had found that this seal had a trace of karmic connection with Zhou Feng, so he laid out a trap in advance.


    The Dao of Karma could discover all kinds of karmic connections in advance, and one could then use them to slowly lay out a plan.


    Zhou Feng had been set up just like this.


    In the blink of an eye, Zhou Feng felt his entire body go numb, and red hair began to grow on his arms.


    His soul was assaulted, and all sorts of illogical scenes kept appearing in his mind.


    ¡°Scram!¡± he roared, and his aura rose up.


    The Physical Dao¡¯s laws covered his entire body, and this decaying aura was instantly suppressed before being expelled from his body.


    Although the result of doing so was that his body would rot, Zhou Feng did not pay the slightest price to solve this problem.


    Then, he punched again, completely suppressing this decaying power.


    ¡°It¡¯s coming again!¡±


    Zhou Feng keenly sensed that the stars in the sky began to flicker.


    The power of the stars was borrowed again.


    This was exactly the same as the situation earlier. It was obvious that Dao Yan was using some kind of divine ability.


    ¡°So every time that person used a divine ability, he needed to borrow the power of the stars?¡±


    Because of his passive Astral Perception, Zhou Feng was very sensitive to the stars.


    The AI had recorded everything during his battle with Dao Yan. It concluded that every time Dao Yan used a divine ability, he needed to borrow the power of the stars. Sometimes, Dao Yan would coordinate a large amount of the star power to assist him from a certain direction.


    Dao Yan might have thought that he had hidden it very well.


    However, Zhou Feng had still sensed it.


    Borrowing the power of the stars to carry out karmic transformation was actually the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s specialty.


    This was because karma was not so easy to alter and deceive. Comprehending the Dao of Karma would only allow one to see the messy karmic threads.


    If one wanted to distort and change these karmic threads, one still needed a large and stable power.


    And borrowing the stars that had become the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s method since ancient times.


    This was also why every time Dao Yan used a divine ability, starlight would fall from the nine heavens.


    When Dao Yan used Karma Transfer, he used a large amount of star power.


    Old Man Seven Stars also assisted Dao Yan in using a divine ability from far away.


    Zhou Feng discovered all of this.


    ¡°There¡¯s a problem! That place¡­ There¡¯s a problem!¡±


    Although Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t clear about all of this, his instincts told him he had to go to that place if he wanted to get rid of Dao Yan.


    Thus, he headed toward the Seven Star Island.


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! Someone is eyeing the Seven Star Island!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars instantly realized that the greatest fear of cultivating the Dao of Karma was to be discovered by others.


    This was especially so for Old Man Seven Stars. After so many years, he had experienced countless calamities, so just as the thought of destroying his family arose in Zhou Feng¡¯s mind, Old Man Seven Stars sensed it.


    ¡°Zhou Feng? How is this possible!? How could he have discovered the Seven Star Island?¡±


    ¡°Impossible! I just fought with him!¡±


    Upon receiving the news, Dao Yan¡¯s face was filled with disbelief.


    Dao Yan was sure that Zhou Feng might not know who he was. Yet, he discovered his location in the blink of an eye!?


    ¡®But how¡­


    ¡®This was too strange! Too strange!¡¯

 Chapter 617 - Plot

    Although Dao Yan was certain that Zhou Feng would never find the Seven Star Island¡¯s location, he found that Zhou Feng was indeed heading through the feedback of karma.


    This more or less caught Dao Yan off guard because he had already made all kinds of arrangements, waiting for Zhou Feng to step into the trap.


    He even wanted to use this opportunity to draw in the Dragon Palace.


    However, all of this turned to dust with Zhou Feng¡¯s actions.


    No!


    He couldn¡¯t let Zhou Feng reach the Seven Star Island, which was the foundation of Dao Yan.


    He could advance and retreat freely without worrying about the backlash of karma because the Seven Star Island was suppressing karma.


    He had to restrict Zhou Feng and couldn¡¯t let him get close to the Seven Star Island.


    ¡°No! This is an anomaly! This anomaly can¡¯t be controlled by karma!¡±


    Suddenly, Dao Yan woke up.


    How could he have thought of subduing Zhou Feng? With such experience and strength, he was obviously an anomaly.


    It was impossible to subdue an anomaly like Zhou Feng.


    If he were even a little careless, he would be dragged into the abyss.


    In this world, some people could break common sense and do things ordinary people thought were almost impossible to accomplish.


    These people were also the bane of the cultivators that pursued the Dao of Karma.


    Because sometimes, even if these people had karmic restrictions, they would ignore karma, ignore all conditions, and do crazy things.


    Although the power of karma was powerful, it was still not the power of direct intervention. Instead, it was modified through various methods.


    ¡°Am I¡­ being deceived? Impossible!¡±


    After waking up from his shock, Dao Yan immediately realized that a huge power of karma had deceived him.


    According to his way of doing things, how could he find trouble with Zhou Feng when he left Seven Star Island?


    He had even taken the initiative to expose himself and even met Zhou Feng head-on.


    Thinking of this, Dao Yan understood that this was the backlash of the power of karma.


    Under the backlash from the power of karma, he had done something out of the ordinary. The karma that he owed previously now needed to be repaid.


    And Zhou Feng was that knife!


    The power of correction of the Dao of Karma had just begun to erupt.


    After understanding this, Dao Yan tried his best to become calmer.


    ¡®Karma correction! It actually came so quickly?


    ¡®Then I want to see how strong Zhou Feng is!¡¯


    In that instant, Dao Yan thought of a method, a way to avoid disaster.


    In the Eastern Sea, the biggest source of karma was definitely not Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars on the Seven Star Island.


    It was the ancient prodigy that had been sealed in the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    This ancient prodigy should have died hundreds of thousands of years ago, but he had relied on the mystic realm¡¯s special nature.


    He froze time for hundreds of thousands of years and chose to wake up when the great golden era was about to open.


    This contained a huge amount of karma.


    In order for this ancient prodigy to survive, he sacrificed countless lives and a piece of heaven and earth.


    The karma that he owed was immeasurable.


    Otherwise, in ancient times, would the Central Plains be able to extract all the spiritual opportunities from the other four regions?


    If no one had cooperated with the sects and forces of the Central Plains, it would have been impossible!


    All of these contained countless secrets.


    Coincidentally, Dao Yan was very familiar with these secrets. The Seven Star Pavilion had been passed down for countless years, and the relevant records had never been lost.


    ¡°Dragon King! Azure Dragon! And those ancient era prodigies! I want to see just how good you are at fighting!¡±


    A crazed expression instantly overtook Dao Yan¡¯s face.


    He knew that in such a situation, he had to survive in the chaos.


    The various schemes from before were no longer effective. If he wanted to survive, he had to make the situation chaotic.


    Hence, a perverse plan appeared in his mind.


    Old Man Seven Stars naturally knew of Dao Yan¡¯s plan at the first moment.


    ¡°It really has to come to this point?¡±


    What was surprising was that Old Man Seven Stars seemed to have known that this day would come.


    Therefore, Old Man Seven Stars silently took action and did not say anything.


    At the Vortex Mystic Realm¡­


    The seawater flowed backward, and a fragrance of vegetation filled the surroundings.


    A towering giant tree grew out of the mystic realm.


    There was also an Azure Dragon¡¯s corpse sitting on the towering tree.


    The spreading aura of the Azure Qi made everyone feel light.


    ¡°What happened inside?¡±


    ¡°This¡­ I don¡¯t know either!¡±


    Many cultivators gathered here as the changes in the Vortex Mystic Realm attracted them.


    Therefore, the Dragon Palace had to put most of its power here to maintain basic order.


    ¡­


    ¡°This is it¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng found the Seven Star Island under the guidance of his Astral Perception.


    However, what puzzled him was that this island seemed to be waiting for him.


    It felt like someone had opened the door of their home and was waiting for him.


    The Seven Star Island was very quiet, and the rocks on the island were shining with starlight.


    There was also a kind of distorted illusion.


    There was a stone table with two cups of tea and two chairs on the shore. The steam was even rising slowly.


    ¡°So I didn¡¯t find the wrong place?¡±


    Zhou Feng relied on his strength and slowly walked forward.


    ¡°Amazing! I don¡¯t know how you found the Seven Star Island! But since you can find this place, this is enough to explain everything!¡±


    When Zhou Feng set foot on Seven Star Island, Dao Yan¡¯s voice slowly sounded.


    ¡®This voice¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng was very familiar with this voice because he had fought with Dao Yan not long ago.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt as if he was being led along.


    ¡®Why was he able to know my movements in advance and even leave a message here?¡¯


    The feeling of being led along made Zhou Feng very unhappy.


    ¡°Perhaps this is fate! The tea on the table is the Enlightenment Tea¡­¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s voice kept ringing in his ears.


    Zhou Feng filtered out all the invalid information. Words like fate, reincarnation, destiny, and karma were all automatically blocked because he didn¡¯t believe in this.


    The final information that was extracted was that Dao Yan had left countless cultivation resources and cultivation techniques here. Dao Yan also hoped Zhou Feng would travel to the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    Everything and karma would end in the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    Of course, this was only the key information that Zhou Feng had extracted himself.


    What Dao Yan said was too confusing. If it were any other person, they would have considered it.


    However, in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, Dao Yan¡¯s goal was to lure him to the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    ¡°Interesting!¡±


    The battle intent in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart suddenly burst out.


    Although he knew that the Vortex Mystic Realm was very dangerous, he still wanted to take a look.


    Play and don¡¯t die! This was the core concept Zhou Feng had comprehended not long ago.


    Also, when he had fought with Dao Yan previously, he felt that his strength, which had been stagnating, had slightly improved.


    Compared to immersing himself in bitter cultivation, constantly fighting and seeking death were more suitable for Zhou Feng.


    1

 Chapter 618 - : Life Extension

    After Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars found out that Zhou Feng was heading to the Seven Star Island, they made a decision in a very short time.


    That was to leave the Seven Star Island, take away the core treasures, and give away the treasures that the Seven Star Pavilion had accumulated over the years.


    It could be said that making this decision was extremely difficult.


    Because other than the core materials, the Seven Star Pavilion had accumulated countless treasures and techniques over the years.


    These things were obtained with a large amount of karma power.


    Not to mention other things, just the various divine abilities and techniques were enough to make countless cultivators envious.


    Not to mention the key to breaking through to the Ascendance realm.


    That¡¯s right! Among the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s treasures, there was also the key to breaking through to the Ascendance realm.


    Fortuitous coincidence! What was a fortuitous coincidence! This was a fortuitous coincidence!


    However, there was no such thing as a pie falling from the sky.


    Naturally, Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars had their reasons for doing so.


    One of the main reasons was to take the opportunity to get rid of the huge karmic debt.


    Although these divine abilities and treasures came easily, they formed a huge karmic debt.


    For a long time, these things could not be used at all to be devoured by the power of karma.


    Simply put, they could only be seen and not used. Was there anything more painful in this world?


    Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars had taken away the core materials and treasures.


    The remaining ones could only be considered as additions. They could be used to transfer most of the karma to Zhou Feng.


    It could be said that from the moment Zhou Feng set foot on the Seven Star Island, a large amount of karma had already been transferred.


    And as long as Zhou Feng accepted the things on the island, then even more karma would be transferred.


    Dao Yan had already solidified the power of karma onto these things.


    ¡°This is an opportunity! An opportunity to get out of the cage!¡±


    After Dao Yan made this decision, his expression became manic.


    This was indeed an opportunity. A monster like Zhou Feng only appeared once every God knew how many years.


    He was completely able to shoulder that huge amount of karma.


    That¡¯s right! The power of karma could not be transferred just like that.


    If one wanted to transfer it, they would need to find a monster that could withstand it.


    If it was an ordinary person, then the huge amount of karma could instantly kill an ordinary person.


    People died, but karma did not disappear.


    In the end, the karma would still return to Dao Yan.


    So all along, Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars had no goal to transfer the karma.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance was indeed a great opportunity.


    Of course, this Karma Transfer Technique did not have no side effects.


    The side effect was to form a new karmic debt with Zhou Feng.


    After all, if one transferred such a huge treasure bag to Zhou Feng, it would create a new karmic connection.


    Through this karmic connection, Zhou Feng could easily find Dao Yan.


    Simply put, Dao Yan and Zhou Feng would definitely have a battle.


    Whoever won in the end would be able to get rid of such a huge karmic connection.


    If Dao Yan lost to Zhou Feng in the end, then even if he could survive, he would not be able to escape the huge karmic connection.


    And if Zhou Feng was defeated in the end, then the huge karmic debt would be successfully transferred.


    The huge karmic debt would be transferred, and then Zhou Feng would be dragged into the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    Dao Yan was already determined to get rid of this huge karmic debt. He did not want to continue hiding. He wanted to head to the Central Plains.


    ¡°Dao Enlightenment Tea?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the steaming Dao Enlightenment Tea in front of him.


    Without hesitation, he lifted his head and drank it.


    He knew that there was a conspiracy and that Dao Yan was planning something, but he still had no intention of dodging.


    He wanted to face the difficulties head-on because only in this way would his strength increase the fastest.


    Of course, the most important thing was that he could draw a new passive skill.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Life Extension: When you suffer a fatal injury, you can enter an undying state and ignore 90% of the damage.


    1


    The undying state lasts for 5 minutes!


    Cooldown: 1 month


    This was another life-saving passive skill!


    It wasn¡¯t any worse than the passive Nirvana Rebirth.


    This was a blood-locking passivity!


    To use common words to explain this passive skill, when his life was in mortal danger, he could directly lock his blood for 5 minutes.


    He could directly reduce 90% of the damage.


    The effect seemed to be slightly worse than the passive Nirvana Rebirth, but this passive advantage was that the cooldown time was very short.


    It wasn¡¯t like the passive Nirvana Rebirth, where the cooldown time was 99 years.


    This passive skill could be reused after one month.


    This was truly invincible. It was a very compatible passive skill and allowed him to live for a while.


    With this passive, Zhou Feng¡¯s death-seeking heart beat again.


    As mentioned earlier, his understanding of the path of immortality was to seek death but not die.


    Holding a bunch of invincible passive skills and letting him cultivate in seclusion until he died was definitely not his style.


    To have all sorts of invincible passive skills and then hide and cultivate by himself?


    Sorry! Zhou Feng could not do it at all.


    The path of cultivation was not something he could tread alone, and he did not want to be a coward.


    He only knew how to live every day and how to avoid danger.


    He wanted to constantly seek death and then not die no matter what. Even time could not kill him.


    Only then could he embark on the path of immortality and finally reach eternal life.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng drank this Dao Enlightenment Tea.


    ¡­


    ¡°As expected! Everything is as I expected!¡±


    After Zhou Feng drank the Dao Enlightenment Tea, Dao Yan immediately felt the heavy pressure in his heart dissipate a lot.


    The huge karmic debt had begun to shift temporarily.


    All along, his suppressed destiny began to rebound.


    Without the suppression of the power of karma, Dao Yan¡¯s powerful destiny finally began to shine.


    The only pity was that cup of genuine Dao Enlightenment Tea.


    Although this Dao Enlightenment Tea was not brewed from the authentic Dao Enlightenment Tea leaves, the branches and leaves of the Dao Enlightenment Tea tree were used.


    A cup of it could allow one¡¯s soul to enter the state of enlightenment.


    In the Seven Star Pavilion, it was considered the most precious spiritual object.


    However, it was also because of such a strong cultivator that Dao Yan was able to use the art of Karma Transfer.


    That was why he was able to transfer the huge amount of karma out.


    This also meant that he and Zhou Feng had entered a state where they would fight to the death.


    ¡°The inheritance of Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡­ and that hidden secret¡­¡±


    Dao Yan now completely treated Zhou Feng as nourishment for his own breakthrough.


    If he was a carp, then Zhou Feng was the Dragon Gate. As long as he could leap over Zhou Feng, Dao Yan could turn from a fish into a dragon.


    For this goal, Dao Yan had gone completely crazy.


    On the other side¡­


    After Zhou Feng drank the Dao Enlightenment Tea, he entered the state of enlightenment once again.


    He had encountered this state of enlightenment a few times before, so he was now familiar with it.


    The Longevity Dao! The Ascendance realm!


    He had just entered the state of enlightenment when he began to comprehend the Longevity Dao. At the same time, he also comprehended how to break through to the Ascendance realm and develop the most primitive power.

 Chapter 619 - Falling Out

    After drinking the enlightenment tea, Zhou Feng once again entered the state of enlightenment.


    In this state, he began to be more active in comprehending the Longevity Dao.


    How to live forever?


    Immortality was something that all living creatures hoped for, especially when they were on the verge of death. This desire would come even stronger.


    Previously, Zhou Feng had thought that if he wanted to live forever, he would need to start with his physical body and soul.


    However, this was only a thought. He had no idea how to do it.


    Now, with the help of the Dao Enlightenment Tea, there was also the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence.


    Zhou Feng suddenly had some new insights.


    Why did people die? Why did people have a fixed lifespan? Why did a cultivator¡¯s lifespan increase after their realm increased? What was the relationship between the level of cultivation and lifespan?


    After getting this clue, he raised countless questions in his heart.


    ¡°So the so-called lifespan is equivalent to a kind of law, and to break this law, one needs to have great strength to contend with it!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes grew brighter and brighter.


    In order to ignore the laws of the great Dao, the first requirement was to have a body that was not affected by the laws of the great Dao.


    Just as his thoughts became clearer and clearer, the state of enlightenment suddenly disappeared.


    His mind became dull, and he was no longer as clear and agile as before.


    ¡°What a pity!¡±


    Zhou Feng could not help but feel a trace of pity in his eyes.


    This enlightenment state was really too short. His gains would have been even greater if it had lasted a little longer.


    But it did not matter. He still had gains in this short period.


    After waking up from the enlightenment state, ZHou Feng started to collect the things on the Seven Star Island.


    If he hadn¡¯t misheard, Dao Yan should have left a lot of good things here.


    Although he didn¡¯t know the purpose of doing this, Zhou Feng knew that there must be a plot behind it.


    It was nothing more than transferring the trouble, or perhaps these things had curses and poison on them.


    The more it was like this, the more Zhou Feng wanted to surprise people.


    According to normal thinking, in the face of such a situation, most people would choose to be cautious first.


    They would ignore Dao Yan¡¯s words and escape.


    Under normal circumstances, this should be the best choice. God knew how many traps there were.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts were different from ordinary people, not to mention that he had just obtained a new passive skill.


    Therefore, he planned to smash the entire Seven Star Island.


    Destroy everything!


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t misread!


    Zhou Feng would leave nothing for Dao Yan to return to.


    ¡®Didn¡¯t you leave a trap? I¡¯ll smash and obliterate everything.¡¯


    ¡°Longevity Punch!¡±


    As soon as this thought surfaced, he mobilized all the strength in his body, and the laws of the Physical Dao augmented his entire body.


    Ever since comprehending the Physical Dao, Zhou Feng had created a divine ability, the Longevity Punch.


    This divine ability was extremely simple, and that was to borrow the Physical Dao¡¯s laws with all his might, displaying the purest form of raw strength.


    As for why it was called the Longevity Punch, the reason was also very simple¡ªthis divine ability was extremely harmful to the body.


    Zhou Feng had to use his body to withstand the Physical Dao¡¯s laws. The pressure created by that pure strength, if one didn¡¯t have tenacious vitality, they really would not be able to withstand it.


    An earth-shattering punch landed!


    At that moment, it was as if a natural disaster had descended. Thunder and lightning came naturally.


    The Seven Star Island began to collapse! Everything there was destroyed by pure power.


    Countless Karma Stones were shattered along with it. The waves churned, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. Clearly, Zhou Feng had only thrown a punch.


    However, all sorts of strange phenomena automatically appeared. The world looked like it was wailing.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s appearance was also quite terrifying. His flesh and blood became blurry, and under the heavy pressure of the force, his flesh and skin became a mess.


    The golden shining bones were exposed in the air.


    If he didn¡¯t have the Immortal Golden Bones, this terrifying pressure would be enough to turn Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body into meat paste.


    Even with such a ferocious and terrifying appearance, Zhou Feng stopped for a second before his injuries began to recover.


    The passive Blood Recovery was first triggered, followed by the Tenacious Heart and other passive skills.


    ¡­


    ¡°How is this possible!?


    ¡°No! Karma has backfired! The Seven Star Island has actually been destroyed?¡±


    At a certain location in the Eastern Sea, Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars immediately felt that the Seven Star Island had collapsed.


    The Seven Star Island¡¯s main body was made of a large number of Karma Stones, and countless karmic debts were bound to it.


    This was also the reason Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars were able to be so carefree.


    The Karma Stones were temporarily bound, but the boundless karmic power was no longer bound now that Seven Star Island was broken.


    Then, it directly backfired.


    Dao Yan¡¯s face immediately turned pale, and blood continuously flowed out of his seven orifices.


    Disbelief appeared in his eyes.


    ¡°There are countless treasures on the Seven Star Island! And all sorts of divine abilities! This person actually¡­ didn¡¯t he drink the Dao Enlightenment Tea?¡±


    At that moment, Dao Yan suspected that Zhou Feng¡¯s mind had a screw loose.


    Why did he make such an abnormal choice?


    Logically speaking, after Zhou Feng drank the Dao Enlightenment Tea, he definitely entered the enlightenment state.


    After enjoying the benefits, he should have more desire for the treasures and divine abilities on the Seven Star Island.


    Even if Zhou Feng was more cautious and suspected that there was a trap on the island, he should have left at the first moment.


    Why did he choose to sink the Seven Star Island?


    Was there any benefit in doing so?


    Dao Yan racked his brains, but he did not know what benefit this would bring to Zhou Feng.


    Moreover, what surprised him the most was that Zhou Feng had the ability to sink the Seven Star Island in one go.


    ¡°Pure power¡­ ignores karma! Pure power to crush!¡±


    Dao Yan covered his mouth. Blood kept flowing out of his mouth, and his face was filled with unwillingness.


    The Seven Star Island had been standing for so long, and it was not so easy to sink it.


    Whenever it suffered damage, it would distort the karma and transfer the damage out or weaken it.


    Back then, the old Dragon King had personally attacked, but he still did not sink Seven Star Island.


    Although Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars both controlled the Seven Star Island¡¯s formation, Zhou Feng could do this because the Physical countered the Dao of Karma.


    That kind of pure power simply could not be distorted through karma.


    ¡°Hurry up and suppress the power of karma!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars was not as pathetic as Dao Yan. He immediately took out a pair of Yin-Yang Jades, wanting to temporarily suppress the backlash of karma.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! We have to quickly suppress the power of karma!¡±


    Dao Yan drew a talisman out of thin air.


    It was a talisman that could turn misfortune into luck!


    ¡°You! Are you crazy!?¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ expression suddenly changed drastically because all of his blood essence was instantly extracted and gathered into the talisman.


    He had never thought that the disciple who was closely related to him would make a move against him.


    Could it be that Dao Yan did not know that if anything happened to him, Dao Yan would not be able to escape?


    And what kind of divine ability was this? Why didn¡¯t he know?


    Countless questions suddenly popped up in Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ heart.


    Dao Yan was expressionless as if he had been prepared to do so for a long time.


    1

 Chapter 620 - Physical Body Not Strong Enough!

    Old Man Seven Stars instantly turned into a dried corpse. His withered appearance was extremely frightening.


    However, his aura did not weaken at all at this moment. Only his tone was filled with disbelief.


    He was somewhat unable to figure out what this beloved disciple of his wanted to do.


    Why did the Seven Star Pavilion always pass down a two-person inheritance instead of an inheritance? It had already been mentioned earlier.


    This was because they had to bear the karma of their ancestors. If they wanted to die safely, they had to find a genius who inherited the karma.


    In other words, all of the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s sect masters faced a problem.


    That was, before they died, they had to find a genius with outstanding talent to bear the karma of the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s legacy.


    If they didn¡¯t find it, the bad luck in their later years would only be the lightest kind of backlash.


    Under the premise of owning a huge karmic debt, did you want to die?


    This was simply impossible. There was once a sect master of the Seven Star Pavilion who thought that everything would be over as long as he died.


    But in the end, his luck was reduced to the extreme under the huge backlash of karma. Every moment, he was in an awkward situation where he wanted to die but couldn¡¯t.


    He was tortured for hundreds of years.


    After all, the karmic creditors were almighty figures and heaven and earth,


    If the karmic creditors were mortals, this wouldn¡¯t be a problem.


    After all, even if there was karma between mortals and cultivators, it was too easy to eliminate it.


    Just the Calamity-Eluding Technique alone could eliminate 99% of it. The most crucial point was owing to heaven and earth and ancient almighty cultivators.


    ¡°You¡¯re crazy! Don¡¯t you know that if something happens to me, all the karma will backfire on you?¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars looked at Dao Yan with extreme puzzlement.


    Even if he relied on the Dao Enlightenment Tea to transfer a portion of the karma to Zhou Feng, the karmic debt they shouldered was not small at all.


    ¡°Am I crazy?¡±


    Dao Yan did not answer Old Man Seven Stars. He just kept on extracting Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ flesh and soul.


    ¡°Are you taking revenge!?¡±


    Although he had clearly become a dried corpse, Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ voice did not have the slightest fluctuation.


    This was because Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ great karmic divine ability had been cultivated to the highest level.


    Karmic Life Lock had been triggered!


    As long as his huge karmic debt did not disappear, he would never die.


    It had to be said that the ancestors of the Seven Star Pavilion were indeed geniuses.


    After realizing they shouldered such huge karmic debts, they directly developed such a divine ability.


    It allowed karma and life to be locked, resulting in a different kind of eternal life.


    However, the side effects of this method were very obvious. The longer they lived, the more bizarre and ominous things they encountered.


    Therefore, the only thought of the ancestors of the Seven Star Pavilion was to be able to die safely.


    ¡°Revenge!? You mean the 135 families that were silenced?¡±


    Dao Yan had always maintained his calm.


    Back then, in order to find a suitable successor, Old Man Seven Stars accumulated a huge karmic debt to find a qualified seedling like Dao Yan.


    And to completely remove the karma between Dao Yan and the others, all those close to Dao Yan were annihilated in body and soul¡ªnot even a dog was spared.


    Only in this way could Dao Yan and Old Man Seven Stars establish the purest karmic relationship.


    ¡°Is that really the case? You should have known about this long ago!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars was not in a hurry, but he was somewhat doubtful. It seemed that he did not believe that Dao Yan would betray him for this reason.


    But now that they had reached this step, he had to first subdue Dao Yan.


    ¡°Karma Reversal!¡±


    The Yin-Yang Jade in Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ hand glowed slightly.


    As his master, Old Man Seven Stars had naturally placed a restriction on Dao Yan¡¯s body.


    This was also why he had been calm and unhurried. As long as he wanted to, then no matter what Dao Yan did, he would not be able to overturn the situation.


    ¡°It¡¯s coming!¡±


    A glimmer of light flashed in Dao Yan¡¯s eyes.


    Suddenly, the situation between him and Old Man Seven Stars turned around.


    Dao Yan was beaten into a pulp, while Old Man Seven Stars was restored to his original state.


    The karma between the two had completely reversed, and the person who had been injured had also changed from Old Man Seven Stars to Dao Yan.


    However, it was also in this state that Dao Yan did not resist at all. Instead, he made his physical body collapse even faster.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars suddenly discovered that Dao Yan¡¯s body had completely disappeared.


    A crystal skull was floating in the air.


    Old Man Seven Stars only felt that his had suffered a blow, and a soul forcefully barged into his body.


    ¡­


    After completely destroying the Seven Star Island, Zhou Feng began to move in the direction of the Vortex Mystic Realm Step by step.


    On the way, he briefly assessed his own strength.


    The Dao Comprehension sub-realm! He was about to break through to the Ascendance realm, which was his current goal.


    Then, there were a lot of passive skills.


    The most important thing should be the laws of the great Daos he had comprehended and the divine abilities that he had created.


    ¡°Longevity Punch! It corresponds to the Physical Dao! The Longevity Steps correspond to the Dao of Space! And the Heavenly Classics of Longevity correspond to the Dao of Longevity¡­¡±


    Speaking of which, the Daos that Zhou Feng comprehended were very messy. It could be said that there were all kinds of Great Daos, and his understanding of them was not too profound.


    With such astonishing battle prowess, other than the buffs from all kinds of passive skills, the guarantee should be an almost invincible physique.


    Speaking of which, Zhou Feng had relied on an invincible physique to cultivate up to now.


    Anyway, he could use all kinds of divine abilities that could injure the enemy 100 times and injure himself 80 times. He could exchange all kinds of injuries for injuries.


    It was resistance. As long as an opponent couldn¡¯t kill Zhou Feng, the opponent would be the one to die!


    He was also able to fight against opponents of a higher level because of this invincible physique.


    As long as the gap between them wasn¡¯t too big, no one would be able to defeat him.


    Therefore, what he should improve next seemed to become very clear.


    An invincible physique was very important if he wanted to fight and not die.


    He felt that it was better to start with his physical body first for the longevity of his physical body and soul.


    ¡°Then how should I increase my physical body¡¯s level?¡±


    How to make his physical body more terrifying was a matter worth considering.


    Because Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body had already reached a limit, he needed some opportunities to continue improving.


    He began to think hard, and the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence was triggered.


    He had a slight clue.


    ¡°Tempering? Continue tempering?¡±


    The information that Zhou Feng obtained through the Heaven Rewards Diligence was actually tempering?


    In other words, his physical body hadn¡¯t experienced enough yet?


    This¡­ how was he supposed to continue tempering?


    Was his tempering not enough before?


    ¡®There¡¯s still no pressure!¡¯


    Without enough pressure, there would be no motivation to move forward.


    After a long time, Zhou Feng felt that the pressure now was not enough to force out his potential.


    Therefore, he needed more pressure and a stronger enemy.


    ¡°Then¡­ When will the pressure come?¡±


    He realized that the entire world was targeting him again with his sharp senses.


    This feeling was very wonderful. Zhou Feng had only felt it when he was fighting with the Black Prince.

 Chapter 621 - Karmas Arrival!

    ¡°Impossible! This is impossible! How did you do it!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ tone was filled with disbelief. Dao Yan had actually taken over his physical body.


    Furthermore, he had actually been banished to a dao artifact.


    ¡°Nothing is impossible! Things like karma are very magical!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s voice was emitted from within Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ body.


    ¡°If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for believing in karma too much!¡±


    Dao Yan had already completed the bird taking over the turtle¡¯s nest. All the karma was carried on Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ body.


    And because of the Karmic Life Lock, Old Man Seven Stars would not die no matter what.


    Thus, Old Man Seven Stars became an excellent artifact spirit.


    The Yin-Yang Jade was one of the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s many sect-guarding treasures.


    Everything was within Dao Yan¡¯s calculations.


    To put it simply, Dao Yan occupied Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ body, and Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ soul was forced onto the Yin-Yang Jade.


    And most of the karma that both of them carried was borne by Old Man Seven Stars.


    After all, the body that Dao Yan used now belonged to Old Man Seven Stars, and Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ soul was in the Yin-Yang Jade.


    Under such circumstances, Dao Yan had gotten rid of most of the karma.


    Now, he only needed an opportunity to be reincarnated, completely getting rid of his current identity.


    Dao Yan wanted to get rid of the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s karmic shackles, reincarnate into a new physical body, and cultivate again.


    Speaking of hatred? In the beginning, Dao Yan might still have some.


    But as time passed, he could no longer clearly remember what his so-called relatives looked like, and even his parents¡¯ memories became blurry.


    As he cultivated, his feelings became more and more indifferent.


    After all, when a person experienced hundreds of years of time, any memory would slowly disappear.


    Moreover, once the path of cultivation started, it was difficult to stop.


    Any cultivator wanted to take a step forward. The feeling of controlling power was too wonderful.


    Having power also meant that one could control the lives of others in their own hands.


    Cultivators who had experienced this kind of feeling would naturally continue to improve themselves.


    Dao Yan was prideful. He didn¡¯t want to live on the Seven Star Island forever.


    ¡°I don¡¯t want to hide like a mouse anymore! I want to go to the Central Plains and live for myself!¡±


    As he spoke, Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ body began to change.


    His tall and straight body became hunched, and his skin began to lose its luster. The backlash of karma slowly began to manifest on his body.


    Dao Yan¡¯s original karmic debt was also accumulated on this body without the Seven Star Island suppressing karma.


    A situation similar to the Five Decays of Heaven and Man had already appeared on this body.


    One of Dao Yan¡¯s eyes inexplicably went blind, and blood and tears kept flowing down.


    His teeth also slowly loosened, and a few big teeth slowly fell off.


    Such a situation would never happen to any cultivator.


    But it was happening at this time, and this was just the beginning of an ominous beginning.


    Why did the previous Sect Master of Seven Stars Pavilion only seek to die safely in the end?


    It was because this ominous process was too torturous.


    Can you imagine an Ascendant¡¯s body deteriorating day by day?


    The process of a mortal getting old was repeated over and over again in his body.


    His strength would decline day by day! In the end, he still couldn¡¯t die!


    The more time passed, the more he would be affected by all kinds of crazy emotions. When he was awake, his memories of the crazy period would be particularly clear.


    That state was simply worse than death.


    ¡°Mirage Dream!¡±


    Dao Yan had long expected the ominous aura on his physical body.


    His understanding of the Dao of Karma was far beyond that of an ordinary person, so he naturally had ways to counter it.


    The ominous aura on his body was temporarily transferred to Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ soul.


    Because this physical body belonged to Old Man Seven Stars, transferring it to Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ soul was completely feasible.


    However, the price of doing so was that Dao Yan¡¯s karmic debt increased again.


    ¡°Ah! No! No!¡±


    Old Man Seven Stars finally felt fear. After experiencing myriads of things, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.


    What exactly was this disciple in front of him thinking!?


    After the karmic backlash was transferred, Dao Yan immediately sealed Old Man Seven Stars¡¯ voice.


    ¡°Next is the reincarnated body! A perfect body!¡±


    After dealing with the nominal master, Dao Yan placed all his energy on Zhou Feng.


    That¡¯s right! To him, Zhou Feng had an excellent body for reincarnation.


    That terrifying physique and that pure strength made the perfect body.


    Why did Dao Yan say that Zhou Feng was where his fortune lay?


    It was because the talent that Zhou Feng displayed was monstrous.


    As long as he could successfully get rid of the Seven Star Pavilion¡¯s karmic ties, he could occupy Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Then he would become a true chosen one, and it would not be a dream to enter the Central Plains by then.


    He had waited for so long for this opportunity.


    No one! No one could stop him!


    Even the Dragon Palace would become his stepping stone, and those ancient chosen ones would become his resources!


    ¡°Hahaha!¡±


    Dao Yan began to laugh wantonly.


    On the other side¡­


    Zhou Feng was besieged.


    The encirclement was so sudden that he couldn¡¯t make sense of it.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    In an instant, columns of blood rose from the bottom and covered the surroundings with endless Blood Qi.


    ¡°You finally dare to come out?¡±


    ¡°Our clan has been waiting for countless years, die!¡±


    ¡°The feud of generations! Let¡¯s settle it today!¡±


    This group of lunatics stared fiercely at Zhou Feng.


    Their eyes betrayed hatred but also a tinge of relief.


    These people appeared very suddenly. Zhou Feng was walking on the surface of the sea when he was suddenly surrounded.


    ¡°Is this a misunderstanding?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked around and instantly understood that this was definitely a misunderstanding.


    The reason should be on that cup of Dao Enlightenment Tea. It was impossible to obtain such a good thing without a price.


    To be able to comprehend the Dao for a short period of time, even if it was extremely short, it was still an absolutely good thing for cultivators.


    Dao Yan didn¡¯t use it himself but especially left it for him. Even if Zhou Feng was Dao Yan¡¯s father, it would be impossible to leave it for him.


    Wouldn¡¯t trouble come just like that?


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that some kind of power had locked down the entire space around him.


    A burst of crying suddenly sounded.


    This crying sound was extremely miserable as a young girl slowly descended from the sky.


    Before he could clearly see this person¡¯s appearance, countless blood-colored lightning bolts surged and roared like a long river.


    A huge explosion sounded.


    ¡°You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    After being struck by the blood-red lightning, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression instantly changed.


    ¡°Longevity Punch!¡±


    He gathered his raw strength once again, and he swung his fist.


    In an instant, that strange and crazy aura was shattered.


    Tian Yu immediately became clear-headed.


    But very quickly, Tian Yu¡¯s eyes once again turned blood-red.

 Chapter 622 - Ancient Pride, Ao Qing!

    Zhou Feng let out an angry roar that shook the heavens. Everything in front of him was instantly shattered.


    Ever since he comprehended the Physical Dao, his battle prowess had increased exponentially.


    This was because the Physical Dao was too compatible with him. His powerful physique, coupled with his unparalleled recovery speed, allowed him to borrow the Physical Dao¡¯s power in battle for ten minutes.


    All the people in front of him who were blocking him were crushed.


    The young girl¡¯s expression changed, but she had a fearless look on her face.


    ¡°This is fate! Our fate!¡±


    The young girl began to chant in a low voice.


    Everyone began to chant as well, and their bodies began to emit a faint light.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attitude toward this was to kill them all.


    He didn¡¯t care what kind of misunderstanding there was, but these people were here to target him.


    There was no mistake in attacking directly.


    As for an explanation? It looked like it couldn¡¯t be solved with a simple explanation.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was like lightning as he shot through the air.


    One punch! One palm!


    In a short while, all the people who surrounded Zhou Feng died.


    Moreover, these people¡¯s bodies were almost broken into many pieces.


    The surroundings gradually calmed down. Zhou Feng¡¯s passive skills were triggered, and his injuries gradually recovered.


    ¡°Eh? This special feeling.¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly had a special feeling.


    This feeling seemed to tell him that the source of all disasters was in that place.


    As long as he went to that place, he would be able to find the source of all disasters.


    In the end, Dao Yan still could not suppress the side effects of the Karma Transfer Technique.


    By transferring most of the karma onto Zhou Feng, the two sides established a huge karmic connection.


    Previously, Zhou Feng did not discover this special feeling because Dao Yan had forcefully suppressed this side effect.


    But now, he still couldn¡¯t suppress it.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng now knew where Dao Yan was.


    ¡°Is that so?¡±


    Zhou Feng only felt the blood in his body boiling.


    At the Vortex Mystic Realm¡­


    The originally bustling Vortex Mystic Realm suddenly became strange.


    The densely packed cultivators now had no chance at all. A large amount of blood-colored mist actually appeared on the body of the Azure Dragon coiled around the giant tree.


    ¡°If the ancient chosen one wants to make a difference in this era, they naturally have to wash away the mark of the ancient era!¡±


    ¡°But the Heavenly Dao doesn¡¯t allow it! So, they naturally need to use some extraordinary methods!¡±


    ¡°Are you right, old Dragon King?¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s voice slowly sounded in the silent Vortex Mystic Realm.


    Dao Yan, who had appeared in the Vortex Mystic Realm, now looked terrifying.


    Both of his eyes had disappeared, leaving only two empty holes. His skin was loose, and his teeth had fallen out.


    There was also a wound on his shoulder that could not be healed, and some maggots were gnawing on it.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! The so-called Dragon Palace is only the nourishment for these heaven¡¯s favorites!¡±


    The Dragon King looked like he had completely lost his spirit. He didn¡¯t expect there to be such a heaven¡¯s favorite in the Vortex Mystic Realm.


    Moreover, the arrangement had already begun tens of thousands of years ago. The entire Dragon Palace was only a backup source of resources.


    He was a mighty Ascendant, but now he was trapped here like a dead dog.


    ¡°The Dao of Karma? There¡¯s actually someone who doesn¡¯t fear death and cultivates the Dao of Karma?¡±


    A gentle female voice slowly sounded.


    ¡°Oh? You¡¯re the Azure Emperor descendant? You¡¯ve finally appeared!¡±


    After Dao Yan heard this voice, he immediately looked toward the head of the Azure Dragon.


    And from the sound of it, Dao Yan seemed to have some understanding of the owner of this female voice.


    A sarcoma had grown out of nowhere on the body of this Azure Dragon, and this sarcoma seemed to be giving birth to a life.


    ¡°Azure Emperor? What else do you know?¡±


    Ao Qing did not expect Dao Yan to know the name of the Azure Emperor.


    He even knew that she was the descendant of the Azure Emperor.


    The name of the Azure Emperor had disappeared for a long time, yet someone still knew his name.


    They would not have thought that an Azure Dragon once had this title.


    In ancient times, there were two people who had the title of Azure Emperor.


    The first Azure Emperor was naturally the first Azure Lotus that shook all the clans.


    Most people knew that the Azure Emperor was this person, but not many people knew that there was once an Azure Dragon who also called himself the Azure Emperor.


    ¡°I can¡¯t say too much about this! After all, I already owe enough karma!¡± Seeing that Ao Qing did not deny it, Dao Yan grinned, his loose muscles forming an ugly curve. ¡°But I know you shoulder a huge karmic debt! And the huge karma on me will be ended by one person! So I came here to find you to cooperate!¡±


    Cooperating with this ancient prodigy was the reason Dao Yan came here.


    Karma would not always exist, especially the karma owed to heaven and earth. The Heavenly Dao would not allow a person to be free after owing karma to heaven and earth.


    When these karmic debts accumulated for a certain amount of time, they would erupt at the same time.


    Then, it would be up to a person to solve the issue of the accumulated karmic debt.


    An ancient prodigy like Ao Qing naturally carried a terrifying karmic debt.


    It was for this reason that Dao Yan wanted to work together with Ao Qing to withstand this outbreak of karma.


    ¡°Work together? Huh?¡±


    Although Ao Qing did not say it out loud, the disdain in her tone was enough to express her attitude.


    ¡°Perhaps you don¡¯t believe it, but a real monster is rushing over here!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s tone was calm, and then he began to slowly explain.


    ¡°This person cultivates alone! In less than a few years, he has already reached the Dao Comprehension¡ª¡±


    ¡°So?¡±


    Before Dao Yan could finish, Ao Qing interrupted him.


    She did not think that it was so great to reach the Dao Comprehension sub-realm after cultivating for a few years.


    Although it sounded astounding, it was nothing to a true prodigy.


    Some people were even above the Ascendance realm before they were even born.


    Moreover, Ao Qing didn¡¯t think that a monster could be born in such an environment.


    The Eastern Sea was much worse than in ancient times.


    Without sufficient Spiritual Qi and cultivation resources, it was impossible to raise a true monster.


    It was because of this judgment that Ao Qing didn¡¯t care about the monster that Dao Yan mentioned.


    ¡°You will definitely die in this person¡¯s hands!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s expression suddenly became somewhat serious.


    ¡°Hehe~¡±


    Ao Qing looked at Dao Yan and chuckled a few more times.


    She obviously did not believe that someone could kill her because she had already surpassed the Ascendance realm.


    ¡°This person has Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance!¡±


    As soon as Dao Yan finished speaking, a cold murderous aura erupted from Ao Qing¡¯s body.


    ¡°Heavenly! Venerate! Longevity!¡±


    These three short words seemed to be squeezed out from between Ao Qing¡¯s teeth.

 Chapter 623 - : What Was He Doing!?

    When Ao Qing heard the words ¡®Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯, she was instantly immersed in her memories.


    It was because of Heavenly Venerate Longevity that she was reduced to this state. If it weren¡¯t for Heavenly Venerate Longevity, she wouldn¡¯t have needed to use this method to prolong her life. She even needed to use an evil method to regain her life.


    ¡°What else do you know?¡±


    Ao Qing¡¯s tone regained its calmness, but from her performance just now, she wasn¡¯t as calm as she had imagined.


    Also, how much did Dao Yan know?


    He even knew about the enmity between her and Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    ¡°I only know that the first Azure Dragon died at the hands of Heavenly Venerate Longevity!¡±


    Dao Yan was completely fearless.


    The Yin-Yang Jade continued to revolve around his body.


    A wave of karmic power continuously shuttled through the cycle of reincarnation.


    That¡¯s right! The first Azure Dragon in the world died at Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s hands.


    One could only blame the Azure Dragon for comprehending the Dao of Longevity and gaining some enlightenment.


    The Azure Dragon¡¯s lifespan alone could already surpass countless cultivators.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity was also curious, so the Azure Emperor suddenly died.


    No one knew what had happened back then. They only knew that the Azure Dragon¡¯s death had something to do with Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    ¡°And if it weren¡¯t for my help, you wouldn¡¯t have recovered so quickly!¡±


    ¡°Your help? Are you saying that you plotted against those trash from the Dragon Palace?¡±


    Ao Qing immediately reacted when she heard Dao Yan¡¯s words.


    Almost all the cultivators who had explored the Vortex Mystic Realm, including the members of the Dragon Palace, had been wiped out.


    Even the old Dragon King was trapped here, and his true dragon bloodline was continuously being absorbed.


    Ao Qing didn¡¯t expect things to go so smoothly at the beginning. It turned out that Dao Yan had been pulling the strings from the shadows.


    ¡°That¡¯s right! I have to bear a lot of karma for this!¡±


    ¡°So after all that, you just want me to deal with one person? And that person seems to have arrived!¡±


    Ao Qing suddenly felt a vast aura slowly approaching.


    ¡°Eh? This speed¡­¡±


    Dao Yan also sensed that something was wrong. Zhou Feng¡¯s arrival was a little too fast.


    Dao Yan had arranged a lot of things before.


    This more or less ruined his plan. However, the problem should not be too big with Ao Qing, the ancient chosen one.


    Although Ao Qing did not say it explicitly, Dao Yan knew that she had a deep grudge against Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Zhou Feng had Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance, so she would definitely not let it go.


    Everything was still under control. The materials needed for the Seven Star Compass had been gathered. Now, all that was left was the time to refine it.


    The Seven Star Compass and the Dragon Gate in the Dragon Palace.


    Then there was the Azure Dragon¡¯s blood. Together, these things were enough for him to be reincarnated.


    Speaking of which, the Dragon Palace had used the Deepsea Nether Iron as a reward to hire Dao Yan to deal with Zhou Feng.


    But they didn¡¯t expect that Zhou Feng was so powerful and couldn¡¯t be beaten at all.


    Dao Yan had even thrown in the Seven Star Island and formed a deep grudge with Zhou Feng.


    Therefore, Dao Yan turned the spearhead and used Ao Qing to take advantage of the Dragon Palace.


    He killed all the living forces of the Dragon Palace, and even the old Dragon King was not spared.


    Only then did Dao Yan get what he wanted, obtaining the Deepsea Nether Iron.


    Otherwise, Dao Yan¡¯s physical condition would not have been so bad, directly entering the state of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.


    When Zhou Feng descended, the sea of clouds in the sky retreated.


    His arrival did not make much sound, but it gave off a thunderous feeling.


    ¡°The two of you schemed against me behind my back?¡±


    Zhou Feng had already stayed at the Eastern Sea for long enough, so he did not want to waste any more time.


    As such, he had used the Longevity Steps to rush all the way here.


    His body was broken, and his Immortal Golden Bones were slightly exposed. Then, his injuries slowly recovered.


    Dao Yan and Ao Qing saw this scene.


    Dao Yan wasn¡¯t surprised because he had already witnessed Zhou Feng¡¯s perversity.


    Such injuries would casually recover, and they didn¡¯t affect Zhou Feng at all.


    Ao Qing was slightly surprised. This kind of recovery ability was a bit too strong!


    He was clearly only a Dao Enlightenment cultivator!


    Zhou Feng glanced at Dao Yan, then looked at the sarcoma on the Azure Dragon¡¯s head.


    He could clearly feel that there was an aura growing within the sarcoma.


    The atmosphere suddenly became strange.


    For Zhou Feng, his original plan was to go to the Dragon Palace to find something that could improve his strength.


    Techniques, treasures, and spiritual items!


    These were all his goals, but now his goal had more or less deviated.


    ¡®Yes! My goal is to enhance my strength! How come I deviated all of a sudden?¡¯


    Zhou Feng thought for a while and suddenly realized that he deviated intentionally or unintentionally.


    Therefore, the techniques of the Dragon Palace and the spiritual items in the Vortex Mystic Realm were the most important.


    It was normal to accomplish the task first and then solve the problem.


    ¡°The Dragon Palace¡¯s people have become so quiet? Where are they?¡± asked Zhou Feng


    Then, he found that the area had become so quiet that there weren¡¯t even many people around.


    Later, Zhou Feng found the old Dragon King, who was almost sucked dry.


    While he was thinking about what had happened here¡­


    Dao Yan, who was at the side, was ready to retreat at any moment.


    Dao Yan¡¯s current physical condition was not suitable for battle at all. If he were to fight forcefully, he would be captured by Zhou Feng.


    Then, he would be in big trouble!


    Ao Qing also did not act rashly. This was because she needed time to recover. She needed more time to shed this Azure Dragon body and obtain a human body.


    At the same time, she was also investigating Zhou Feng¡¯s depth.


    She came from the ancient times. Although she was extremely proud, she knew very well that carelessness would kill people.


    No matter what enemies she faced, she had to treat them seriously. Otherwise, she would be the unlucky one.


    And the feeling that Zhou Feng gave Ao Qing was strange.


    That¡¯s right! This was exactly the same as when Dao Yan first met Zhou Feng. The feeling that Zhou Feng gave Ao Qing was awkward and strange.


    There were traces of various laws of great Daos on his body, giving people a very chaotic feeling, and it was even extremely disharmonious.


    But under such circumstances, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was emitting a dangerous aura.


    He was clearly only in the Dao Enlightenment realm! Why? How could this kind of cultivation be able to threaten her?


    This was what Ao Qing could not figure out.


    The three people at the scene had all sorts of thoughts, so no one took the initiative to attack.


    Facing the silence of Dao Yan and Ao Qing, Zhou Feng shrugged.


    Since no one answered him, he would do as he saw fit.


    In the next second, Zhou Feng moved.


    His body disappeared on the spot as if he had comprehended the Dao of Space, crossing a long distance.


    This made Dao Yan and Ao Qing nervous instantly.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°What is he doing!?¡±


    What astonished them was that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t attack them but instead chose to go to the empty Dragon Palace.


    ¡°???¡±


    Such a move made Dao Yan and Ao Qing unable to figure out Zhou Feng¡¯s thoughts.

 Chapter 624 - Disgusting

    After Zhou Feng figured out his purpose for coming to the Eastern Sea, he instantly shifted his target to something that could improve his strength.


    As for dealing with Dao Yan? He had that special feeling anyway.


    No matter where Dao Yan ran to, he would be able to find him.


    Since that was the case, there was no need to rush.


    There was also Ao Qing. He had no enmity with Ao Qing, so he had no reason to interfere with whatever she wanted to do.


    Unless Ao Qing wanted to make a move on him, she could do whatever she wanted.


    At the thought of this, Zhou Feng rushed to the empty Dragon Palace under the astonished faces of Dao Yan and Ao Qing.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Upon seeing this, a rare trace of sweat appeared on Dao Yan¡¯s forehead.


    Things didn¡¯t go as he had imagined.


    Originally, according to Dao Yan¡¯s plan, the hot-tempered Zhou Feng would definitely start a fight as soon as there was a disagreement.


    As a proud son of heaven from the previous era, Ao Qing was extremely arrogant in her heart.


    Once the two clashed, there was no need to say anything before they would start a fight.


    To be honest, if Dao Yan did not cultivate the Dao of Karma, he would not have the courage to stand here.


    Obviously, Ao Qing had a slight understanding of the Dao of Karma, so she did not want to shoulder a huge karmic debt.


    That was why Dao Yan was able to stand here safely.


    However, this matter seemed to be somewhat different from what he had imagined.


    He did not know why Zhou Feng suddenly changed his mind and the murderous aura that he had earlier slowly dissipated.


    ¡°How could it be!?¡±


    The always meticulous Dao Yan suddenly felt powerless. He relied on the power of karma to mislead and guide others. If he continued to succeed, he would give people a feeling that he was above everything else.


    He felt that everything in the world was just a puppet that he controlled.


    However, if someone did not cooperate, Dao Yan would instantly be in a predicament. He did not know what to do.


    ¡°Hehe~¡±


    Ao Qing, who was inside the sarcoma, sneered coldly. She did not say anything.


    ¡°Damn it! Why did this happen!?¡±


    Although he had a bad feeling, Dao Yan kept a mysterious expression on his face. He believed that everything would go according to his plan under the great power of karma.


    ¡°Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance¡­¡±


    Ao Qing¡¯s voice gradually faded as a new aura was born.


    ¡­


    ¡°Is there really no one left? What happened here?¡±


    Zhou Feng looked around in surprise.


    It was really strange that there was no living aura in the Dragon Palace.


    Also, weren¡¯t there many cultivators gathered here?


    What was more terrifying was that there were no ordinary aquatic creatures in the nearby sea area.


    Where did they all go?


    While he was thinking about these questions, Zhou Feng called out Ge Li.


    Previously, Ge Li had wanted to observe the Dragon Palace. Now was the right time.


    ¡®Should I just tear down the Dragon Palace and install it on Penglai Island?¡¯


    Because he didn¡¯t understand what was going on, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think too much about it.


    In any case, the current turn of events bestowed a good opportunity to him.


    The Dragon Palace was now empty, and he could wander around here as much as he wanted.


    ¡°Is this the Dragon Palace?¡±


    When Ge Li came out of her space, her eyes instantly widened.


    Looking at the magnificent palace around her, Ge Li felt a shock in her heart. She didn¡¯t expect that what Zhou Feng had said would come true.


    He really brought her to visit the Dragon Palace, and there was no one around to disturb her.


    Although she didn¡¯t know how Zhou Feng did it, Ge Li didn¡¯t probe further.


    ¡°Great!¡±


    Ge Li¡¯s eyes cracked into a smile. She took Zhou Feng¡¯s hand and started to wander around.


    They wandered around for several days and almost emptied the entire Dragon Palace. After all, most of the vaults in the Dragon Palace were unguarded.


    The Dragon Palace was really rich. There were more than a dozen vaults alone.


    Each vault contained a large number of mystical materials. At first, Ge Li was a little uneasy, but she got used to it after that.


    No one came to stop them. Even when Zhou Feng used his physical body to break open the vaults, no one came to stop him.


    Therefore, Ge Li and Zhou Feng happily emptied the place.


    The only regret was that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t find the core divine abilities and the method to break through to the Ascendance realm.


    In other words, the most important asset of the Dragon Palace wasn¡¯t here.


    ¡°Eh? This aura¡­¡±


    Just as Zhou Feng felt a little regretful, Ao Qing, who was not far away, finally completed her rebirth.


    The sea of clouds churned, and the Azure Dragon¡¯s body, which was wrapped around the giant tree, emitted a boundless light.


    A dazzling light erupted between heaven and earth, and a peerlessly beautiful woman broke through the warts on the Azure Dragon¡¯s head.


    The fair and delicate bare feet of a young girl came into view.


    Following that was a pair of azure dragon horns. These azure dragon horns emitted endless vitality.


    Graceful was the best word to describe Ao Qing¡¯s appearance.


    There were also clothes made of clouds that made Ao Qing¡¯s figure faintly visible, giving people endless space to daydream.


    ¡°As expected of a heaven¡¯s favorite from the ancient times!¡±


    Dao Yan couldn¡¯t help but sigh in his heart. At the same time, his karmic debt inexplicably increased.


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Just as Dao Yan was thinking about why this karmic debt suddenly increased, Ao Qing snorted.


    The turbulent clouds gathered into a ball, and divine light exploded.


    Ao Qing¡¯s beautiful face emitted a few strands of murderous aura.


    Dao Yan was hit in the head.


    ¡°Not good!¡±


    Fortunately, the Yin-Yang Jade had been hovering around Dao Yan, so Dao Yan could barely resist this attack.


    ¡°Mirage!¡±


    A shadow shot into the sky, and Dao Yan instantly escaped from this space.


    ¡°What are you doing!?¡±


    Dao Yan looked at Ao Qing with some confusion. Why did she suddenly attack him?


    One had to know that he owed a huge karmic debt. It would not be beneficial to attack him rashly.


    On the contrary, it would be very easy to be involved in this karmic debt, not to mention Dao Yan¡¯s life-saving ability.


    Those who cultivated the Dao of Karma were basically the same as those who cultivated the Dao of Longevity. They were basically more tenacious than cockroaches.


    The other cultivators might not know, but a heaven¡¯s pride from ancient times definitely understood.


    That was why Dao Yan couldn¡¯t figure out why Ao Qing attacked him.


    Normally, shouldn¡¯t Ao Qing fight with Zhou Feng?


    Ao Qing and Heavenly Venerate Longevity were mortal enemies, and Zhou Feng had the Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s inheritance.


    ¡°What am I doing? I don¡¯t need you to manipulate me!¡±


    Ao Qing¡¯s face showed disgust.


    A person like Dao Yan who cultivated the Dao of Karma believed that he controlled karma and used it to control others.


    He believed that everything had to go according to his plan. Such behavior was really disgusting.

 Chapter 625 - Whats Going on?

    Ao Qing, who had been reborn, had a disgusted look on her face.


    With a gentle wave of her hand, the endless clouds gathered together and sealed Dao Yan tightly.


    These clouds did not seem to have any destructive power, but they contained an intense corrosive power.


    In just a few seconds, Dao Yan felt that his current physical body was slowly melting away.


    ¡°Damn it! Karma Transfer!¡±


    Dao Yan gritted his teeth and immediately used the Karma Transfer Technique to forcefully transfer his body away.


    What made him a little shocked was that his predictions didn¡¯t seem as sharp as before.


    His mind also seemed to have become slow.


    Can you imagine it? A cultivator who was good at divination actually felt that he was a little slow.


    There was also the fact that he had overestimated himself.


    He thought that by relying on karma correction, he could control everything and lead things in a direction that was beneficial to him.


    But in reality, Ao Qing hated this attitude the most.


    As a heaven¡¯s pride that had fallen from the previous era to the present, Ao Qing was extremely proud.


    Unless she was facing an opponent of the same level, she wouldn¡¯t even take a second look.


    Dao Yan, on the other hand, appeared to be holding a pearl of wisdom in his hand.


    Therefore, after Ao Qing was reborn, she immediately made his move.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    However, what made Dao Yan even more desperate was Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden appearance.


    The Physical Dao pierced through the sky, and Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body exploded with gray light.


    His fist was like an ax, fiercely cutting through heaven and earth.


    ¡°Cloud Dream Incarnation!¡±


    As a last resort, Dao Yan could only use his trump card. His body turned into a dream cloud and dodged Zhou Feng¡¯s attack.


    ¡°It¡¯s really not that simple!¡±


    Upon seeing this, a trace of pity appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes.


    He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to see if he could directly kill Dao Yan.


    Because according to his guess, the real secret treasure in the Dragon Palace should be in Dao Yan¡¯s hands.


    In the past few days, Zhou Feng had searched everywhere in the Dragon Palace, but he couldn¡¯t find the Dragon Palace¡¯s secret treasure.


    In other words, someone had found the Dragon Palace¡¯s secret treasure ahead of time.


    And that person was very likely Dao Yan. As for Ao Qing, who had been forming a new body, she obviously didn¡¯t have the time.


    ¡°Humph!¡±


    Ao Qing looked at Zhou Feng and snorted.


    In Ao Qing¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng¡¯s actions were simply a provocation to her.


    Dao Yan was now her target, yet Zhou Feng dared to make a move.


    ¡°Just in time to test your strength!¡±


    A terrifying aura began to rise slowly.


    Ao Qing¡¯s hands made a sword gesture.


    Instantly, that enormous Azure Dragon¡¯s body was refined.


    The Azure Dragon¡¯s backbone turned into countless longswords in the blink of an eye, and the soaring sword aura seemed to be able to pierce through the skulls of everyone present.


    ¡°They¡¯re finally fighting!¡±


    Seeing that Ao Qing¡¯s attention was finally attracted by Zhou Feng, Dao Yan could not help but let out a sigh of relief in his heart.


    Although the process was a little tortuous, everything was finally proceeding according to his plan.


    After this matter was over, he would have to hide and enter closed-door cultivation.


    ¡°This state of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man is really too terrifying!¡±


    Dao Yan finally experienced the consequences of the karmic backlash.


    Previously, he had been using the Seven Star Island to avoid trouble, so he didn¡¯t have a specific understanding of the karmic backlash.


    Now, he could be considered to have experienced it properly. This kind of decline from the body and soul was really terrifying.


    Under this state, a cultivator was no longer an extraordinary immortal but a mortal who was slowly becoming stupid.


    This was too cruel for a cultivator.


    At the thought of this, Dao Yan began to feel slightly regretful. He regretted possessing Old Man Seven Stars and being too confident back then.


    Ao Qing slightly made a sword gesture, and countless sword lights flew like snowflakes, enveloping Dao Yan and Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows, looking very relaxed as the aura of longevity enveloped his entire body.


    He threw another punch, and the pure power poured out like surging waves.


    And this also enveloped Ao Qing and Dao Yan together.


    ¡°???¡±


    At this time, three question marks appeared in Dao Yan¡¯s head.


    What was going on?


    The Indestructible Sword Qi was no threat to Zhou Feng. Before it even got close to his body, it was crushed by pure power.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s attack did not pose a threat to Ao Qing either.


    The endless clouds dissipated all the power.


    Only Dao Yan was struggling in the middle, looking miserable.


    ¡®What kind of method is this!?¡¯


    The doubt in Ao Qing¡¯s heart did not diminish as she looked at Zhou Feng, who was recovering rapidly from his injuries.


    She boasted that she was knowledgeable enough and had seen countless geniuses and monsters, but at this moment, she really could not see through Zhou Feng.


    He was clearly cultivating the Physical Dao, but the way he used it was very crude.


    Every time he used the laws of the Physical Dao, he almost crushed his body but quickly recovered.


    Other than that, there were also all kinds of great Dao laws that intertwined with his body.


    ¡®That aura! This seems to be an Invincible Avatar? He has condensed an Invincible Avatar!?¡¯


    ¡®So powerful!¡¯


    After the simple exchange, Zhou Feng immediately felt Ao Qing¡¯s terror.


    Although Ao Qing looked like a goddess with fair and tender skin and a peerlessly beautiful face that made people unable to help but be immersed in it, the aura she displayed made one feel they were in an endless purgatory with countless pools of blood and mountains upon mountains of bones.


    Zhou Feng could even faintly hear the howls of countless races.


    Ao Qing had definitely killed countless creatures. What goddess was this? She was clearly a witch from purgatory.


    ¡®Escape!¡¯


    Just as Ao Qing and Zhou Feng were confronting each other, Dao Yan immediately used the Seven Stars Escape Art.


    Borrowing the power of the seven stars, he fled a thousand miles!


    Dao Yan really didn¡¯t want to be caught between the two of them. If this continued, he would probably be slowly tortured to death.


    Therefore, he had no choice but to use another great divine ability.


    His karmic debt once again increased by a lot!


    Although this escape art could allow one to travel thousands of miles, it was very taxing on star power.


    If one overborrowed star power, they would have to bear the karma of heaven and earth.


    The power of the stars in the sky were not lent to one for free.


    Now, a small part of Dao Yan¡¯s karmic debt came from this.


    It was the excessive use of star power to cast all kinds of divine abilities, resulting in the heaven and earth karma being too large.


    However, he couldn¡¯t not use it. After all, he cultivated the Dao of Karma, and his battle prowess was lacking. If he did not use star power to fight, he would be waiting to be savaged by all kinds of enemies!


    ¡°Hmm?¡±


    The moment Dao Yan disappeared, Zhou Feng also immediately used the Longevity Steps.


    Because he was burdened with the problem of karma, he had a special connection with Dao Yan, so Zhou Feng directly followed.


    ¡°Don¡¯t even think about escaping!¡±


    Ao Qing was naturally unwilling to be outdone. She used her draconian might to travel between heaven and earth!

 Chapter 626 - Caught in the Middle!

    Ao Qing instantly turned into a dragon and disappeared on the spot with a dragon¡¯s roar.


    After Dao Yan used the escape technique, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.


    Moreover, after he was far away from Zhou Feng, he felt that his slow head was slowly recovering.


    As expected, it was because he was close to Zhou Feng, the person who was entangled by karma, that he became a little retarded.


    After understanding this point, Dao Yan¡¯s expression became somewhat ugly.


    Clearly, nothing went according to his expectations.


    ¡°Time! I still need time!¡±


    Dao Yan was even more anxious because the Seven Star Compass was still being refined.


    In order to avoid any accidents, he needed to continue stalling for time.


    He absolutely could not let Zhou Feng get close to the refining location of the Seven Star Compass. Otherwise, under the entanglement of karma, the refinement of the Seven Star Compass would inevitably fail.


    This kind of thing had happened before. The previous Sect Leader of the Seven Star Pavilion had experienced this kind of thing.


    When the time came, not only would all the refinement materials disappear, but he would also have to shoulder another portion of karmic debt.


    This was simply a loss that he could bear.


    ¡°He came so quickly!?¡±


    However, just as Dao Yan heaved a sigh of relief, his pupils immediately contracted because he sensed Zhou Feng¡¯s aura.


    Zhou Feng appeared in front of Dao Yan in the blink of an eye.


    What made him even more desperate was that Ao Qing¡¯s aura also followed closely behind.


    That kind of insufferably arrogant aura descended from the sky.


    Ao Qing glanced at the expressionless Zhou Feng and Dao Yan, and her expression became a little more serious.


    The sound of a sword resounded through the sky, and the sword aura full of vitality turned into a cage.


    All of a sudden, Zhou Feng and Dao Yan were trapped.


    ¡°That was fast!¡±


    Although it seemed easy for Ao Qing to catch up with Zhou Feng and Dao Yan, she almost could not keep up with Zhou Feng.


    When Zhou Feng disappeared, it was extremely sudden. Other than the Longevity Steps¡¯ backlash, their effect were no different from teleportation.


    If she had lost him just now, then she would have lost a lot of face.


    Therefore, in order to prevent such a situation from happening again, Ao Qing chose to strike first.


    She immediately set up a sword formation!


    The incomparably sharp Sword Qi seemed to have turned into tens of thousands of azure rays of light, shining in all directions.


    Zhou Feng was the first to bear the brunt, and Dao Yan seemed to be doing it in passing.


    ¡®This kind of vitality¡­;¡¯


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows. He actually felt astonishing vitality from this sharp Sword Qi.


    This kind of vitality seemed to be somewhat similar to the longevity substances.


    However, he did not say much. With a sweep of his fist, he directly used pure power to shatter everything.


    Dao Yan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.


    That was because Zhou Feng¡¯s punch just now was directed at him.


    The most fatal thing was that this kind of physical power made Dao Yan¡¯s illusion avatar useless.


    It clearly looked like Ao Qing and Zhou Feng were fighting each other, but at this moment, it looked like the two of them were ganging up on Dao Yan.


    ¡®Run!¡¯


    At that moment, the only thought in Dao Yan¡¯s mind was to run quickly.


    He could see now that neither Zhou Feng nor Ao Qing intended to let him go.


    Moreover, the most desperate thing was that he did not have the ability to resist these two people at all.


    They were pure monsters. He could not afford to offend them.


    ¡°Seven Star Escape Art!¡±


    Dao Yan¡¯s eyes were bloodshot as he formed a dao seal with his hands.


    A blood-red star quietly appeared in the nine heavens, and a blood shadow hovered in the sky.


    Dao Yan was forced to use the escape technique forcefully. He even burned his own blood essence for this.


    ¡°Go!¡±


    Zhou Feng followed with a relaxed expression.


    He took a Longevity Step, and the longevity substances forcefully pulled his body.


    Ao Qing¡¯s face darkened.


    Compared to Dao Yan and Zhou Feng, her moving technique was not that outstanding.


    Most importantly, these two had a way of restraining their auras. When they concealed their auras, she could only rely on her powerful spiritual sense to barely catch up.


    ¡°Damn it!¡±


    At this time, Ao Qing had already discarded the contempt in her heart. She absolutely could not continue playing.


    Dao Yan used the escape technique twice and forcefully came to the bottom of the sea.


    ¡°This time¡­ there shouldn¡¯t be any problems, right!?¡±


    Without waiting for him to heave a sigh of relief, Zhou Feng immediately followed.


    However, he looked extremely miserable; his body was in tatters.


    Even though the Longevity Steps were powerful, the side effects were also very serious.


    When crossing space, he didn¡¯t consider any other problems. He only considered the speed and distance.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Immortal Golden Bones were completely exposed, but Zhou Feng didn¡¯t seem to care.


    After all, although this side effect looked serious, it was just that.


    With such injuries, he didn¡¯t need much time to recover.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Dao Yan didn¡¯t expect Zhou Feng to catch up so quickly.


    He didn¡¯t even take a breath, and Zhou Feng caught up? How was this possible!?


    He had directly fled thousands of miles away!


    Even if Zhou Feng had some special senses, it was impossible for him to catch up in such a short period.


    Originally, Dao Yan¡¯s plan was to stall for time first and then slowly think of a countermeasure.


    Zhou Feng did not say a word. His right hand, which was shining with golden light, was under terrifying pressure.


    The laws of the Physical Dao had descended!


    Half of Dao Yan¡¯s body was instantly crushed.


    It was a good thing that this attack had triggered the passive Bleeding.


    Dao Yan had just reconstructed his shattered flesh and blood when his body began to bleed uncontrollably.


    The Yin-Yang Jade continued to shine, wanting to protect Dao Yan¡¯s body, but it was futile.


    After suffering Zhou Feng¡¯s heavy blow, Dao Yan¡¯s unlucky moment was not over yet because Ao Qing had also caught up now.


    A dragon¡¯s roar resounded throughout the clouds again.


    And this dragon¡¯s roar was directed at the soul. In order to end this farce, Ao Qing did not hold back.


    She directly used the Eight Notes of Heavenly Dragon!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s brows were tightly furrowed as blood continuously flowed out of his seven orifices.


    As for Dao Yan, he was even more miserable. His brain was a mess from the roar.


    If it weren¡¯t for the protection of the great karmic power on his body, he would have already died here.


    ¡°Run!¡±


    At that moment, the only thought in Dao Yan¡¯s mind was to quickly run away from these two monsters.


    Being sandwiched between these two monsters was simply suffering.


    However, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t give Dao Yan the slightest chance. A large hand forcefully grabbed onto Dao Yan.


    A second dragon¡¯s roar sounded!


    In an instant, the entire sea started to shake. The impact from the soul was even more obvious.


    Dao Yan¡¯s physical body had already been reassembled several times.


    Zhou Feng grabbed Dao Yan with one hand, and his physical body began to charge upward explosively.


    When he had just rushed out of the sea, Ao Qing was already blocking his way. She was looking down from above.


    A jade-like hand reached down.


    This was to crush the two of them to death.

 Chapter 627 - Blood Lock!

    Zhou Feng did not choose to dodge. Instead, he took Ao Qing¡¯s attack head-on.


    Relying on his unparalleled physical body, he blocked the abundant impact.


    However, Dao Yan, who was beside him, was not so lucky. His entire physical body was crushed and reassembled once again.


    ¡°No!¡±


    Dao Yan was already a little afraid at this moment. Don¡¯t look at how his physical body could reassemble continuously.


    It seemed as if he had an immortal body.


    In fact, every time his physical body was reassembled, he would become even weaker.


    The influence of the power of karma on Dao Yan would become more and more severe.


    If this continued, his mind would probably be wiped out, and he would travel around the world under the control of the power of karma.


    He would be in a half-conscious and half-dazed state to repay the huge karmic debt owed to heaven and earth.


    Before the karma debt owed to heaven and earth was completely repaid, Dao Yan had to bear this kind of pain.


    Therefore, he began to be afraid. His previous shrewdness and wisdom had completely disappeared.


    He had completely overestimated himself and was dragged into the battle between two monsters.


    ¡°How exactly did you cultivate?¡±


    Feeling the rebound force in her hand, Ao Qing finally could not help but speak. She wanted to know how Zhou Feng cultivated and how he was able to reach such a level.


    This kind of physical body was actually comparable to hers.


    It must be known that the current Ao Qing was no longer the ancient her. After thousands of years of planning and refinement, she had already developed a new physical body.


    Ao Qing directly nurtured a new physical body from her old body. At the same time, in order to get rid of the bloodline restriction of the Azure Dragon, she also forcibly merged with another type of divine blood.


    In other words, Ao Qing¡¯s body now contained two special bloodlines.


    And because of the thousands of years of integration, these two bloodlines had been perfectly merged in Ao Qing¡¯s body.


    The two bloodlines couldn¡¯t repel each other.


    This also resulted in her invincible body. Just the power of her body alone was enough to crush an ordinary Dao Enlightenment cultivator.


    However, Zhou Feng was not at a disadvantage when facing her. He even had a slight advantage.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally would not answer Ao Qing¡¯s question. He only said one word softly, which was also directed at Dao Yan.


    The pure crushing power of the Physical Dao appeared once again.


    This time, even Zhou Feng himself was crushed by this kind of power. His body shattered crazily, revealing his golden bones.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Dao Yan was extremely regretful.


    His regretful tears flowed down his throat. This was the first time he felt this way.


    Before, when he had been living on Seven Star Island, he had always felt that he was omnipotent.


    But after experiencing this kind of crushing, Dao Yan regretted that he had plotted against his master.


    If Old Man Seven Stars was still here instead of being suppressed in the dao artifact, perhaps he would not be in such a sorry state!


    ¡°Hmph!¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng ignored her, Ao Qing could not suppress the anger in her heart.


    She already had a deep prejudice against Zhou Feng, and now Zhou Feng actually dared to ignore her.


    ¡°What a hindrance!¡±


    In Ao Qing¡¯s eyes, Dao Yan was a hindrance.


    Azure light emitted from Ao Qing¡¯s dragon horn.


    This was Ao Qing¡¯s original divine ability.


    Now that it was displayed, it represented Ao Qing¡¯s attitude.


    Instantly, Dao Yan and Zhou Feng¡¯s internal flesh began to sprout!


    Tender green wood sprouts actually slowly grew out of their bodies, and the Azure Qi began to circulate.


    Hair! Nails! Teeth!


    All of these began to grow crazily, and at the same time, their vitality began to burn at an accelerated pace.


    Such a state made Zhou Feng feel somewhat familiar.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t think much of it, but Dao Yan was once again out of luck.


    Almost all of his body was covered in green branches.


    Then, he was smashed down by Zhou Feng¡¯s fist.


    Dao Yan¡¯s body and the branches turned into a bloody mist.


    ¡°Disappeared?¡±


    When Dao Yan turned into a bloody mist, Zhou Feng found that the special sense had disappeared. His heart was slightly relieved, and the huge karmic debt had been reduced by more than half.


    Now that he had solved one problem, he could solve another one with peace of mind.


    ¡°It¡¯s your turn now!¡±


    Blood-colored flames started to appear on Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and the Invincible Avatar appeared.


    Zhou Feng wanted to finish this battle as soon as possible, so he ignored the burden on his body and once again put himself in a critical state, forcing himself to use even more power.


    It was just an appetizer before, but it was time for the main course now.


    Zhou Feng became even more familiar with putting everything on the line because he was on the defensive this time.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! Sun and Moon Wheel!¡±


    In Ao Qing¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng suddenly became even stronger. That kind of dangerous aura continued to spread, but she did not have the slightest bit of fear.


    This kind of situation was common in ancient times. It was not even worth mentioning.


    Nonetheless, Ao Qing still took out a treasure called Sun and Moon Wheel.


    As an ancient heaven¡¯s pride, Ao Qing naturally had a bunch of treasures.


    Moreover, most of these treasures could be called innate numinous treasures. Their power was far stronger than connate numinous treasures that were refined. They were born with the laws of the great Dao.


    Just like now, a moon wheel was drawn down.


    Wherever the moonlight shone, everything was cut.


    Zhou Feng was the same. His body seemed to have been ruthlessly cut.


    However, it didn¡¯t have much effect on the Immortal Golden Bones.


    ¡°Longevity Steps!¡±


    Zhou Feng stepped forward and arrived in front of Ao Qing in the blink of an eye.


    With a punch, a Sun Essence Shield blocked the attack.


    This was a shield condensed from the essence of the sun. Not only was its defense terrifying, but it also emitted high temperatures.


    With just a touch, he could smell the fragrance of burned meat.


    Zhou Feng once again damaged himself badly. His breath was extremely weak, but his aura reached a peak.


    ¡®Why is he doing this?¡¯


    Facing Zhou Feng, who was in such a strange state, Ao Qing was actually a little intimidated.


    Just like Zhou Feng¡¯s previous opponents, Ao Qing simply could not understand why he did this.


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s weak aura, Ao Qing felt that it was not even her turn to make a move. Zhou Feng was about to die.


    In fact, it was the same.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes widened as his new passive skill, Life Extension, was triggered.


    Life Extension: When you suffer a fatal injury, you can enter an undying state and ignore 90% of the damage.


    The undying state lasts for 5 minutes!


    Cooldown: 1 month


    Just now, he had suffered a fatal injury. Now, his entire body entered the undying state, and the laws of the Heavenly Dao wrapped around him.


    Following that, whatever injuries he suffered would be nullified by 90% by the special laws of the Heavenly Dao.


    Moreover, the passive Blood Recovery and Tenacious Heart were also triggered, and his injuries began to recover crazily.


    However, before long, Zhou Feng once again destroyed his own body.


    He wanted to accumulate wounds to obtain terrifying battle strength and fight his higher-level opponent!

 Chapter 628 - Killing

    Zhou Feng, who was in the blood-lock state, looked frenzied as if he had gone mad.


    ¡°Kacha! Kacha!¡±


    With a punch, Ao Qing¡¯s Sun and Moon Wheel actually cracked.


    Crisp sounds rose continuously.


    What was even more terrifying was that Zhou Feng was able to do this with just his physical body.


    After entering the undying state, he was able to further squeeze out his physical body and soul.


    After all, in this state, all damage was reduced by 90%.


    If he didn¡¯t squeeze now, when would he squeeze?


    Ao Qing was sent flying after a few blows, and a part of her physical body turned into a bloody mist.


    At this time, she also felt what it was like to be crushed.


    ¡°How could he have improved so much!?¡±


    Ao Qing gnashed her teeth, trying to make herself look less pathetic.


    In her eyes, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength seemed to have suddenly increased by several times, and it was the kind that did not make sense.


    She had never seen such a strange state before.


    But it was just this. It was impossible to make her yield!


    In terms of regeneration, Ao Qing was not inferior to anyone.


    As an Azure Dragon, she had studied the Dao of Creation and was most familiar with creating and rebirth.


    That was why she was able to survive from ancient times until now and live a new life as if she was reborn.


    And in this life, she switched to the Sword Dao and even turned the spine of her previous life¡¯s body into a lifebound sword.


    Finally, there was still a large amount of foundation. Ao Qing did not believe that she could not outlast Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Again!¡±


    Ao Qing¡¯s voice was filled with fighting spirit as it rang out.


    Thus, the two of them engaged in a long and frenzied battle.


    The intensity of this battle was far greater than before. If Dao Yan was still here at this time, he would probably be reduced to dust in an instant.


    Under normal circumstances, Ao Qing would definitely have the absolute advantage.


    When an Ascendant fought against a Dao Enlightenment cultivator, there was a huge gap in terms of realm.


    Ao Qing, who had surpassed the Ascendance realm, not only had an advantage in terms of her physical body and soul, but she also had an advantage in terms of using the laws of the great Dao.


    It could be said that from the beginning of the Dao Enlightenment realm, all the subsequent breakthroughs were in accordance with the laws of the great Dao as much as possible.


    When the entire body ascended, it would transform in the direction of the laws of the Great Dao.


    Therefore, the Rebirth realm had a huge advantage when it came to manipulating the law of the great Dao.


    ¡°Die! Die! Die!¡±


    However, Zhou Feng was not at a disadvantage at all. In fact, he became more and more courageous as he fought. He roared three times the word ¡®Die¡¯.


    His fighting spirit rushed into the clouds. He opened and closed his arms, rampaging in all directions.


    ¡®Impossible! This is impossible!¡¯


    Ao Qing gnashed her teeth and roared in her heart.


    This kid was obviously weaker than her in every aspect, so why was he able to suppress her!?


    This was very counter-intuitive. His realm, body, soul, and comprehension of the laws of the Great Dao.


    Zhou Feng could not compare to Ao Qing, but he didn¡¯t fall into a disadvantageous position. Instead, he always had the advantage, activating all sorts of passive and crazy abilities.


    He used the Longevity Steps without any regard for his life.


    Both sides consumed a huge amount of energy. The terrifying injuries basically healed in a few seconds.


    But soon, the injuries piled up again.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s fist was unparalleled in strength. In fact, during the battle, he got a deeper understanding of the Physical Dao.


    The advantage began to tilt slowly.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Another punch forced Ao Qing back, and Zhou Feng arrived in an instant.


    Under Ao Qing¡¯s terrified gaze, he grabbed the dragon horns on her head with both hands.


    ¡°How dare you!?¡±


    Ao Qing completely ignored the broken Sun and Moon Wheel in her fury.


    The sun and moon shone together!


    The essence fire of the sun and moonlight descended at the same time.


    The waves churned, the sky turned upside down, and the entire world fell into darkness.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s face did not waver. He used his hand to forcefully pull the Dragon horns off Ao Qing¡¯s head.


    Ao Qing¡¯s scalp was torn open, and blood splattered all over her body.


    ¡°Sword!


    ¡°Azure Dragon Token!


    ¡°Four Symbols Grand Formation!¡±


    Ao Qing threw out all sorts of trump cards at the risk of her life when she suddenly suffered such a heavy injury.


    First was an Azure Dragon Token. This was a protective treasure that her father had left for her.


    It contained an Azure Dragon strike!


    Next was a formation base that shone directly from Ao Qing¡¯s forehead.


    In a trance, the four sacred beasts that suppressed the four extremes of heaven and earth seemed to appear for a moment.


    The endless power of suppression was about to refine Zhou Feng alive.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Under this crazy counterattack, Zhou Feng¡¯s body was about to break apart.


    Luckily, he was in his undying state and managed to block 90% of the damage.


    The golden bones were endurable enough, so he was able to block this crazy counterattack.


    However, the undying state ended ahead of time.


    The passive Life Extension entered a cooldown state.


    And the passive Blood Recovery, Tenacious Heart, and other passive states were triggered all the time.


    Hence, Ao Qing saw Zhou Feng¡¯s body madly regenerating.


    That madly growing flesh scared Ao Qing.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    She simply couldn¡¯t understand how Zhou Feng could still recover.


    Zhou Feng had displayed an amazing recovery ability in the previous fierce battle.


    But Ao Qing didn¡¯t take it to heart at that time because she also had this ability, and it wasn¡¯t worth mentioning.


    It could even be said that every cultivator had this kind of rapid recovery method.


    The difficult thing was enduring all kinds of law attacks and recovering from dao injuries


    under the interference of the rules of the Great Dao, they could still recover.


    Dao injury!


    This was the professional term for suffering injuries from the laws of the great Dao.


    Ao Qing had thrown out a few trump cards in order to quickly defeat Zhou Feng.


    But now, it seemed that Zhou Feng was completely fine. Instead, she was in trouble.


    In just a few seconds, Zhou Feng had completely recovered. Taking advantage of Ao Qing¡¯s shocked state, he threw another punch.


    The Sun and Moon Wheel shattered!


    The Azure Qi barrier shattered.


    Just like that, Ao Qing died there.


    Before she died, Ao Qing had never thought that she would die here right after she was reborn.


    Moreover, it was so sudden. She still had many things to do, such as re-entering the Central Plains to compete with the heaven¡¯s favorites and even to fight for the chance to truly become an immortal.


    But now, all of this was for naught.


    Unwillingness and resentment filled Ao Qing¡¯s heart.


    Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling Ao Qing was, it was useless.


    Zhou Feng turned Ao Qing¡¯s body into a bloody mist. Only after the passive Human Slayer¡¯s stacks increased did he completely relax.


    ¡°How tiring.¡±


    The curtain of this great battle had finally come down. Zhou Feng also felt a deep sense of exhaustion.


    The Blood Qi in his entire body had almost been exhausted, and more than half of the longevity substances in his Fate Wheel had also been consumed.


    If not for the passive Life Extension, Zhou Feng might really not have been able to survive this time.


    Ao Qing¡¯s strength was far beyond his imagination.


    ¡°So now I can draw a new passive skill, right?¡±


    Zhou Feng glanced at the skill panel. If an elite like Ao Qing died in his hands, it would definitely provide a large amount of destiny power.


    Sure enough, the progress bar on the skill panel was full again.


    He could draw a new passive skill~

 Chapter 629 - Massacre!

    Since Zhou Feng could draw a new passive skill, he would naturally draw it.


    At the same time, he wanted to see if there were any spoils of war.


    He had fought too fiercely just now and directly thrown many things to the back of his mind.


    Only then did Zhou Feng realize that he was here to find a way to break through to the Ascendance realm.


    He was not here to fight. From the looks of it, he could only place his hopes on the Daemon League.


    Since the Eastern Sea was a dud, he would return to the easternmost region.


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Dao Protection: The laws of the great Daos you have comprehended will automatically form a protective barrier to defend against all kinds of attacks.


    2


    Every time the protective barrier is broken, physical strength will be consumed to recover it until your physical strength is exhausted.


    ¡°Dao Protection!?¡±


    Before Zhou Feng could react to what was going on, countless great Dao laws were condensed into an invisible protective barrier that enveloped his physical body.


    1


    What was this equivalent to? This was equivalent to obtaining a super-protective shield. Not not only could this protective barrier grow infinitely, but it could also exist forever.


    After it was shattered, it would recover. And It only consumed physical strength!


    To be honest, ever since he started cultivating, he had almost never experienced what it felt like to be exhausted.


    Too strong!


    It was yet another heaven-defying passive.


    The laws of the great Daos were protecting his body. Did this mean that only a law attack could shatter this protective barrier?


    His strength soared once again.


    ¡°Are Ascendants still my match?¡±


    Zhou Feng was full of confidence and set his eyes on the easternmost region.


    Even if he didn¡¯t find a way to break through the Ascendance realm, it was time to leave the Eastern Sea.


    Of course, before he left, he had to go back to Penglai Island.


    There was also the issue of the placement of Ge Li. Was the Central Plains a suitable place for Ge Li?


    Compared to the Eastern Sea, which was safe, the Central Plains was considered dangerous for ordinary cultivators.


    Even though Ge Li spent most of her time in the Arcane Ink Space¡­


    ¡­


    ¡°They¡¯re dead! They¡¯re all dead! The Dragon Palace is gone too!¡±


    ¡°How is this possible? This is not real!¡±


    ¡°The Dragon Palace is gone!? The Dragon Palace existed for so long! How can it be gone just like that!?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s all true. The Dragon Palace is now empty.¡±


    Perhaps for Zhou Feng, he could just walk away.


    But for the entire Eastern Sea, the disappearance of the Dragon Palace was undoubtedly a superstorm.


    The Dragon Palace that had ruled the Eastern Sea for countless years disappeared, and even the old Dragon King was nowhere to be found.


    In addition, everyone who had entered the Vortex Mystic Ream was also gone.


    For a time, the entire Eastern Sea fell into a leaderless state, and some of the aquatic tribes instantly entered a state of madness.


    There were many individuals who took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.


    It could be imagined that the entire Eastern Sea would be in chaos for a long time to come.


    However, all of this had nothing to do with Zhou Feng.


    At present, he was at Penglai Island with Ge Li.


    ¡°Have you decided?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve decided. I still can¡¯t leave the Eastern Sea!¡±


    Zhou Feng had explained the situation to Ge Li.


    Ge Li hesitated for a while and didn¡¯t choose to go to the Central Plains with him.


    Ge Li had been staying in the Eastern Sea since she was born.


    Moreover, she didn¡¯t have too big of an ambition. Going to the Central Plains to compete with countless elites wasn¡¯t suitable for her.


    Compared to going to Central Plains, Ge Li preferred to stay in the Eastern Sea.


    Zhou Feng did not intend to force Ge Li; perhaps he was already used to it.


    Along the way of cultivation, he had already gotten used to the flourishing luck of love and becoming alone again.


    He gave most of the spoils of war from the Dragon Palace to Ge Li and told her to manage Penglai Island well.


    Maybe one day in the future, he would return and spend the rest of his life with her.


    ¡°Okay! I¡¯ll wait for you!¡± Ge Li immediately smiled.


    ¡°Then I¡¯m leaving. Goodbye.¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have much of an expression on his face. He just said a simple goodbye.


    Just like that, he parted with Ge Li and headed to the easternmost region alone again.


    ¡°Goodbye!¡±


    Looking at his back, Ge Li was not too sad. She was also used to being alone.


    In the easternmost region¡­


    The Spirit-Filling Convention had been held and completed not long ago.


    Numerous Spiritual Veins filled the deep sea, and many foundations were created.


    Countless formations had been carved into them, and many treasures had been buried.


    There was not much time left before the Daemon League split the easternmost land from the Eastern Land.


    ¡°The more critical the situation is, the more attention must be paid to the backlash of the karma between heaven and earth.


    ¡°In order to suppress the backlash of the karma between heaven and earth, all the Elders, including you, will no longer be able to move.


    1


    ¡°But it¡¯s all worth it! As long as we leave the Eastern Land, we can get rid of the restrictions of the Central Plains.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right! If we don¡¯t get rid of the restrictions of the Central Plains, we won¡¯t be able to break through past the Ascendance realm in our lifetime.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Yang Zhe knew that as the leader of the Daemon League, the more he was in such a situation, the more he couldn¡¯t reveal a confused expression.


    Now was the time when the karmic backlash was the most severe and also the time when the Daemon League was at its weakest.


    If he revealed a hint of weakness at this time, he was afraid that someone would seize the opportunity.


    For example, the farce that happened a few months ago.


    A Spiritual Vein had been snatched away, and an Ascendant had even died.


    And the opponent was only at the Dao Enlightenment realm, Dao Seeking at that.


    This is simply a shame for the Daemon League. If not for the main force of the Daemon League suppressing the heaven and earth karmic backlash, there was no way that fellow would have gotten away with this.


    It turned out that the reason Zhou Feng had been able to enter the easternmost region but also escaped by force was that the Daemon League¡¯s main force was being held up.


    At that time, Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was not even worth mentioning, yet he was able to escape from the easternmost region because the Elders of the Daemon League could not move.


    Otherwise, the easternmost region had a super formation to suppress him. He would not have had the chance to escape with dozens of Ascendants.


    As for the Spiritual Vein being taken away, that would have been even more impossible.


    When Yang Zhe thought of Zhou Feng, his brows suddenly jumped, and he asked casually, ¡°Has that person¡¯s background been investigated?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve investigated it clearly! This person isn¡¯t from the Eastern Land but from the Southern Border¡­


    ¡°And this person seems to be connected to a country called the Sky Kingdom.


    ¡°We captured everyone from the Sky Kingdom and tried to force this person to appear¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng probably did not expect that the people from the Daemon League would actually find out about the Sky Kingdom.


    The Sky Kingdom was also destroyed because of this, and Princess Ming¡¯s Estate that had come into contact with him had suffered an even more tragic fate.


    Everyone from Princess Ming¡¯s Estate died tragically in the easternmost region.


    This was because the Daemon League and the others had wanted to use Princess Ming¡¯s Estate to threaten Zhou Feng and try to force him to appear.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng never appeared. In the end, Princess Ming¡¯s Estate and everyone from the Sky Kingdom were slaughtered.

 Chapter 630 - Experienced the Same Feeling

    Zhou Feng had just approached the easternmost region when he felt a wave of resentment.


    Following that was a familiar aura.


    ¡°This is¡­ Princess Turin? Dead?¡±


    His expression turned ugly because he had once cultivated in Princess Ming¡¯s Estate of the Sky Kingdom.


    He was rather familiar with Princess Turin¡¯s aura.


    After all, the Sun-Swallowing Roc¡¯s aura was very special.


    But now, Princess Turin¡¯s aura had appeared here, and it was the kind that was about to dissipate.


    Zhou Feng could still feel the unwillingness.


    Other than that, there were other people¡¯s auras.


    ¡°Why?¡±


    He was somewhat puzzled. The Sky Kingdom was so far away, so why did the Sky Kingdom¡¯s people fall here?


    He used Hexadirectional Calculation to speculate through the AI.


    Not long after, Zhou Feng received the information he wanted.


    All the blame was directed at him.


    The people of the Sky Kingdom had died because of him. That was why they had such terrifying grievances before they died.


    One could even feel it up until this moment.


    Most of the people of the Sky Kingdom did not know Zhou Feng at all. They had only heard of him at most.


    But in the end, they were implicated by this person.


    ¡°Ah! ! Let me go! I beg you!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t even know this person¡­¡±


    ¡°Goddamnit!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng could vaguely hear all kinds of wails.


    All of this was very normal for the Daemon League and the others.


    This was the result of going against the Daemon League. Once they found out, they immediately took action.


    Why did the Eastern Land go from prosperity to desolation?


    The Daemon League was mainly responsible for this.


    In order to achieve the goal of splitting the easternmost region from the Eastern Land and to suppress the backlash of karma between heaven and earth, the Daemon League used brutal methods to minimize all dangers.


    The tragedy of the Sky Kingdom showcased the essence of the law of the jungle in the cultivation world.


    ¡°The law of the jungle¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng was in a bad mood with an ugly expression on his face.


    Although the people of the Sky Kingdom did not have much contact with him, they had died because of him.


    It was only because of this inexplicable reason, and it was only because the Daemon League was stronger.


    Now that he was faced with such an outcome, an unknown fire burned in his heart.


    Other people had died because of him, but the strong could do whatever they wanted to the weak. He was in a bad mood!


    His emotions piled up to an extreme when all these factors were added together.


    ¡°It¡¯s time to carry out a massacre!¡±


    Zhou Feng chose not to hide his aura anymore.


    ¡­


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong! The backlash from the karma between heaven and earth¡­ Why is it so fierce!?¡±


    Yang Zhe suddenly felt that something was wrong.


    His perception was temporarily blocked. This was simply unbelievable.


    At the same time, Yang Zhe¡¯s eyebrows started twitching wildly.


    But because his perception was temporarily blocked, he didn¡¯t know what had happened.


    Unfortunately, he needed to focus his attention and suppress the backlash from the karma between heaven and earth.


    After all, splitting the easternmost region from the Eastern Land was in itself a heaven-defying feat.


    Encountering countless difficulties during this period was already a common occurrence.


    ¡­


    ¡°Everyone attack together! Quickly inform the Elders.¡±


    ¡°Is he crazy? He actually dares to come here alone to court death?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just a moment ago, Zhou Feng had suddenly charged into the easternmost region, ignoring the super formation that enveloped the surroundings.


    He chose to attack on the spot without a word or hesitation.


    There was only pure power.


    After just a few exchanges, countless Daemon League disciples had fallen.


    This had never happened since the establishment of the Daemon League.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was not stained with any blood, but his surroundings were full of mutilated corpses.


    Blood, limbs, and bone fragments were splattered everywhere, and terrifying rumbling sounds could be heard endlessly.


    He only attacks with his fists.


    Whoever came up would die!


    It was simple and efficient!


    Everyone felt a chill run down their spines.


    ¡°I¡¯m very unhappy right now!¡±


    However, the more he killed, the more unhappy Zhou Feng felt. This sort of unhappy feeling made him speak directly.


    ¡°You¡¯re very unhappy?¡±


    ¡°What does this have to do with us?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t be smug! Do you think you¡¯re very strong?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re so arrogant!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s words and attitude angered the proud Daemon League disciples.


    What did his displeasure have to do with them!?


    ¡°You actually dared to act atrociously here. Don¡¯t you know what kind of place this is?¡±


    ¡°Impudent!¡±


    After Zhou Feng had wreaked havoc for a long time, one of the elites from the Daemon League finally arrived.


    ¡°It¡¯s Senior Brother Xuan Ming!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s great! Senior Brother Xuan Ming is here! We can finally subdue this maniac.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    A man riding on a bolt of lightning appeared. His appearance caused some people to cheer.


    Xuan Ming was one of the few prodigies in the Daemon League. Although he was still in the Dao Enlightenment realm, his strength was not to be underestimated.


    Especially since he had the bloodline of the ancient Rotary Turtle and had comprehended the Dao of Lightning since he was young. He could also summon heavenly lightning to aid him in battle.


    Even some Ascendants would be at a disadvantage if he threw caution to the wind.


    At that moment, a surging torrent of lightning assaulted Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    The nameless fire in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart became more and more vigorous, and the Physical Dao¡¯s might was displayed.


    ¡°This kind of power!¡±


    Xuan Ming¡¯s pupils constricted slightly, and his reaction was extremely fast. He immediately raised the revolving turtle shield and deflected most of the power.


    Still, Xuan Ming was sent flying by a punch.


    Meanwhile, the terrifying lightning did not harm Zhou Feng at all.


    The protective barrier formed by countless laws of the great Daos completely protected Zhou Feng.


    As such, the terrifying lightning did not touch him at all.


    ¡°Longevity Steps!¡±


    Zhou Feng took a step forward as if he had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers.


    In the next second, he grabbed Xuan Ming¡¯s neck and broke it.


    Xuan Ming fell!


    This Senior Brother Xuan Ming, who had only appeared for less than a minute, could not even Zhou Feng withstand three moves.


    For a moment, everyone in the surroundings felt as if their throats were grabbed, and they could not make a single sound.


    They had been cheering for Xuan Ming a moment ago, but now Xuan Ming had suddenly died.


    Was this person really that terrifying!?


    The only thing that comforted them was that some wounds had appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    This was the backlash from using the Longevity Steps.


    However, these wounds only lasted for a few seconds before they began to heal.


    Despair began to rise in the disciples¡¯ hearts.


    ¡°Why aren¡¯t the Elders here yet!¡±


    ¡°Is this monster something we can deal with?¡±


    ¡°Why am I so unlucky to have encountered such a thing?¡±


    The Daemon League disciples had the same feelings as the people from the Sky Kingdom.


    Why were they so powerless!? Why did they encounter such a harbinger of carnage!? Who could subdue this madman!?

 Chapter 631 - Fighting Alone Against a Group of Heroes

    Zhou Feng attacked wantonly, the blood mist constantly spreading.


    At that moment, these cultivators suffered a complete dimensional reduction blow.


    His unrivaled strength and recovery ability made the people of the Daemon League truly feel what it meant to be powerless.


    How could there be such a monster?


    Xuan Ming¡¯s fall scared many people away.


    He was a famous genius in the Daemon League. His strength was naturally unquestionable, yet he died in less than a minute!


    ¡°Impudent! Who dares to behave atrociously here!?


    ¡°Great Formation! Rise!


    ¡°Everyone, listen up! Surround and kill this person immediately!¡±


    Finally, the Daemon League reacted, and a rough voice stabilized the hearts of the disciples.


    Then, a mysterious force began to suppress Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    The radiance of the formation slowly recovered as the terrifying formation was activated to its full potential.


    Don¡¯t forget, the Daemon League was able to dominate the Eastern Land and even planned to split the territory because they had a super formation that could change the world.


    When Zhou Feng first entered the easternmost region, he was shocked by the formation.


    The countless Spiritual Veins beneath the easternmost region had all been activated.


    Over the past hundred years, the Daemon League had moved countless Spiritual Veins to the easternmost region. One of the most important reasons was that they wanted to activate this great formation.


    Most of the people in the Daemon League did not know how this great formation had come about.


    Only the past generations of Daemon League leaders would know the secret, but one thing was certain.


    Once such a huge formation was activated, it would definitely be earth-shattering. It was not impossible to change the world in a day.


    Now, in order to deal with Zhou Feng, activating this huge formation in advance could be considered as paying enough attention.


    To be honest, if not for the Elders of the Daemon League, they would not have been able to escape.


    The Daemon League also did not need to activate the huge formation to suppress Zhou Feng.


    Chains of laws appeared from the void.


    Before Zhou Feng could react, he was already locked up.


    These chains were made up of the laws of the Great Dao, and it was almost impossible to break free.


    That was because more chains would appear as long as he broke free.


    ¡°Attack!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing stared at Zhou Feng with a serious expression as he commanded his disciples to attack.


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    ¡°Watch me!¡±


    ¡°Good chance!¡±


    The situation seemed to have reversed in an instant, so the people who had been scared out of their wits became brave.


    One after another, they activated their treasures or used all kinds of divine abilities.


    ¡°He¡¯s simply courting death! He actually dares to attack the territory of the Daemon League!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing didn¡¯t plan to attack himself. A part of the Skydream Formation had already been activated.


    The law chains restraining Zhou Feng were the iron rule of the Daemon League that had been condensed for thousands of years.


    It represented the obsession of everyone in the Daemon League, and Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t break free at all.


    However, just as the people of the Daemon League swarmed forward, an even more violent force instantly erupted.


    All kinds of swords and treasures were completely ineffective against Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    A few spirit swords were even pointed at his glabella, but they were directly shattered.


    As long as someone was close to him, they would turn into bloody rain, and not even a corpse was left.


    Zhou Feng frowned and said coldly, ¡°Continue!¡±


    He could clearly feel that the pressure on his body was even greater.


    However, his mood was much better.


    ¡®Don¡¯t you people think that you can control the fate of others?¡¯


    Zhou Feng wanted to let them know what it felt like to be controlled by others.


    He wasn¡¯t taking revenge for the people of the Sky Kingdom. He simply felt very unhappy.


    Ever since he started cultivating, Zhou Feng had been instilled with a sense of value.


    Cultivators controlled mortals, and the strong controlled the weak.


    It was very normal in anyone¡¯s heart.


    However, Zhou Feng felt a little uncomfortable. Perhaps it was because of his past experiences that made him feel uncomfortable.


    Although he had gradually integrated into this world, he was just unhappy. He didn¡¯t want to change anything.


    Or rather, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t have that kind of ambition. His current thought was very simple. He would make whoever made him unhappy disappear.


    Zhou Feng suddenly roared, ¡°Come! Continue!¡±


    This might be the eruption after being suppressed for a long time.


    ¡°Damn it! How is this possible!?¡±


    Zhao Tianxing¡¯s heart trembled. He never thought that Zhou Feng, who was suppressed by the Skydream Formation, could still erupt with such power.


    An invisible aura suppressed everyone.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s roar was like the roar of an ancient demon god, causing the entire world to tremble.


    ¡°Hmph! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing gnashed his teeth and manipulated the Skydream Formation.


    A dazzling light came from the ground.


    This was the resonance of the Spiritual Vein that had just been filled in.


    Not long ago, this place was still a part of the Eastern Sea.


    The Daemon League had expended a huge amount of manpower to clear the sea and then transport countless Spiritual Veins to bury in this place.


    When the underground Spiritual Veins resonated, all the locations of the Spiritual Veins were exposed.


    ¡®This is¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng naturally discovered this point.


    Ominous!


    Very ominous!


    Ominous¡­


    Auspicious!


    The AI suddenly started to calculate crazily.


    From the beginning, when the AI used Hexadirectional Calculation to divinate the auspicious and ominous, it had always been ominous and very ominous.


    At this moment, it suddenly divinated an auspicious sign.


    The location of these Spiritual Veins below was the key to Zhou Feng¡¯s breakthrough.


    ¡°Not good!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing¡¯s reaction was quick. The light emitted by the resonance of the Spiritual Veins was covered with a raise of his hand.


    He finally understood that it was impossible to deal with this monster in front of him by relying on the disciples below. He had to take action if he wanted to settle this farce.


    ¡°Lock!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing didn¡¯t intend to fight Zhou Feng directly. He just continued to control the formation. He wanted to forcefully refine Zhou Feng in this place.


    The law chains became heavier and heavier, and a heavy sound rang out from Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Don¡¯t move forward. You only need to assist from the side!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing didn¡¯t scold those Daemon League disciples who were already scared out of their wits.


    Instead, he let these people surround Zhou Feng and form a formation to help him subdue Zhou Feng.


    Even though Zhao Tianxing¡¯s cultivation level was higher than Zhou Feng¡¯s, and he had control over a part of the Skydream Formation, he was still very cautious.


    He tried his best to make use of all the power in his surroundings instead of choosing to fight Zhou Feng one-on-one.


    One-on-one? What was the point?


    In any case, as long as he won, it would be enough. As for the so-called dignity of a powerful cultivator, there was no such thing as dignity.


    Yang Zhe had sent Zhao Tianxing to solve this problem because of this trait of his personality.


    For Zhou Feng, Zhao Tianxing suddenly became extremely dangerous.

 Chapter 632

    ?Chapter 632: Comprehending the Dao Again


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Kill!¡±


    When facing the heavy suppression, only one word came out of Zhou Feng¡¯s mouth.


    Longevity Steps!


    The longevity substances were consumed crazily, and his physical body was almost disintegrated.


    However, he walked to Zhao Tianxing in one step.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing frowned as he used the Skydream Formation to pin down Zhou Feng while he simultaneously started to retreat.


    Now that the advantage was on Zhao Tianxing¡¯s side, he naturally wouldn¡¯t be so reckless.


    This was the Skydream Formation! It was a super formation left behind by the ancient Dream God.


    In the ancient times, there were many prodigies. Although the Dream God was born with the power to control the dream realm, he wasn¡¯t that conspicuous among the elites.


    He wasn¡¯t even strong enough to leave his name behind.


    Hence, the Dream God took a different path and wanted to attain Dao through an alternative method.


    In terms of aptitude, comprehension, or luck, the Dream God knew that he was not a match for those monsters.


    And if he wanted to surpass those monsters, he had to start from another angle.


    Hence, the Skydream Formation was born.


    This was a large formation that could grow through the accumulation of time.


    In the beginning, the Skydream Formation only existed in dreams. It was even just a concept and didn¡¯t have any special functions.


    But as more people learned about it, the Skydream Formation would slowly become real.


    Everyone¡¯s beautiful fantasies about the Skydream Formation would become nourishment for its evolution.


    Then, they would be able to enter the second stage and turn from a dream concept into a real entity.


    Moreover, after transforming into a physical entity, all the functions of the Skydream Formation were given to it by humans.


    Just like how the Daemon League wanted to split the earth, all the members of the Daemon League believed that the Skydream Formation had such an ability.


    Hence, the Skydream Formation had such an ability.


    Naturally, when Zhao Tianxing believed that the Skydream Formation had suppressing and other functions, the Skydream Formation would be able to give him feedback.


    Perhaps Zhao Tianxing didn¡¯t expect that the Skydream Formation had all sorts of abilities that were completely given to him.


    It was precisely because he firmly believed that the Skydream Formation would give him feedback.


    ¡°Now!¡±


    When Zhao Tianxing retreated, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes flashed.


    He had been waiting for this opportunity.


    Zhou Feng suddenly fell down, his right fist fiercely smashing onto the ground.


    For a moment, the earth shook. A huge crack appeared on the ground, and a Spiritual Vein was exposed.


    Because this Spiritual Vein had just been integrated into the foundation, it seemed to be somewhat separated from the earth vein.


    It turned out that Zhou Feng¡¯s target was not Zhao Tianxing.


    Zhou Feng had discovered the formation¡¯s weakness during the underground Spiritual Vein riot.


    The Skydream Formation that covered the entire easternmost region needed a large amount of energy to support it.


    And what supported the formation were these Spiritual Veins.


    In order to supply the Skydream Formation, the Daemon League even dug up all the Spiritual Veins in the Eastern Land.


    Thus, a huge part of their karmic debt stemmed from the Skydream Formation because it consumed too much energy.


    Then, as long as all these Spiritual Veins were destroyed, the Skydream Formation would naturally not be a threat to Zhou Feng without support.


    ¡°Stupid!¡±


    Seeing this, Zhao Tianxing didn¡¯t seem to be in a hurry at all.


    If Zhou Feng thought that destroying the Spiritual Veins underground would affect the Skydream Formation, then he was simply a fool.


    When the Daemon League was founded, it was unknown how much pressure it faced due to forcefully moving the Spiritual Veins.


    Countless cultivators wanted to destroy the Skydream Formation, but it was all in vain.


    Apart from the underground Spiritual Veins, the Skydream Formation had other things to support it.


    Not to mention the notion of destroying a Spiritual Vein was laughable.


    Under the protection of the Skydream Formation, it was basically impossible for an ordinary person to destroy a Spiritual Vein. Just the recoil alone was enough to make Zhou Feng suffer.


    Previously, Zhao Tianxing had covered up the light from the Spiritual Vein for another reason.


    ¡°You guys go!¡±


    Zhao Tianxing continued to activate the Skydream Formation to restrain Zhou Feng while instructing his disciples to put pressure on him.


    ¡°Ha!¡±


    However, Zhou Feng did not care about it and continued to destroy the Spiritual Vein underground.


    The strength of his physical body and his terrifying recovery ability were displayed to the fullest at this moment.


    The sky and earth dimmed for a moment, and the chilly wind roared.


    There was only a series of booming sounds around them.


    It was as if an ancient Demon God was holding a huge hammer and pounding the ground.


    The originally intact ground became riddled with potholes, and countless cracks were exposed to everyone¡¯s eyes.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was bathed in blood, and his flesh had been regenerated countless times.


    The only thing that remained unchanged was that his violent aura was getting stronger.


    ¡°Madman! Madman! How is this possible!?¡±


    Zhao Tianxing¡¯s face was slightly twitching. He had just said that Zhou Feng was stupid.


    But now, he wished he could slap himself a few times. The person in front of him was a madman, an invincible madman.


    Because from the beginning until now, Zhou Feng had only done one thing, and that was to smash the ground madly.


    The restriction of the Skydream Formation seemed to have no effect on him. Sometimes, the rebounding force from the ground would send Zhou Feng flying.


    His flesh and blood were torn apart! Even his immortal golden bones had been broken a few times.


    However, Zhou Feng did not stop. All sorts of passive skills worked together, and no matter how severe his injuries were, they could be healed.


    He even stood still, triggering the passive Immovable Mountain.


    No injury could shake him.


    During this time, some people tried to stop him, but all of them turned into blood mist.


    Zhou Feng seemed to have entered a crazy state.


    Everyone present was frightened by the lunatic Zhou Feng. They could only stand far away and quietly watch Zhou Feng¡¯s performance.


    What made Zhao Tianxing even colder was that one of the underground Spiritual Veins had already shattered.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng roared again.


    The essence of the Spiritual Qi that was released from the broken Spiritual Vein was crazily absorbed by him.


    The Skydream Formation¡¯s law chains seemed to be absorbed during this process.


    Meanwhile, the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence allowed Zhou Feng to enter a mysterious state of enlightenment.


    Zhou Feng entered the state of enlightenment once again, and this time, he didn¡¯t rely on any other method.


    It was the result of his hard work.


    Zhao Tianxing only felt a chill on his back. He had clearly suppressed Zhou Feng in all aspects on the surface.


    But at this moment, he did not dare to approach, nor did he dare to make a move.


    He only dared to watch Zhou Feng from afar.


    ¡®What on earth happened? Why did this happen!? Why do I not even have the courage to make a move!?¡¯


    Zhao Tianxing clenched his fists tightly, his liver and gall were scared out of their wits.


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body emitted a blinding light as his soul extended out of his physical body.


    The Heavenly Daos circulated! It was an extreme sublimation!


    The moment Zhou Feng¡¯s soul extended out from his physical body, he seemed to have become the only one between heaven and earth. The sound of the Heavenly Dao accompanied him.


    Everyone paused for a second as they watched Zhou Feng comprehend the Heavenly Dao on the spot in a daze.


    ¡°This feeling¡­¡±


    It was the first time Zhou Feng¡¯s soul reached out of his body and directly touched the world. This strange feeling made Zhou Feng completely immerse himself in it.

    Chapter 633: No Man¡¯s Land!


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    What kind of feeling was it when the soul left the body?


    Zhou Feng only felt that his entire person had fallen into a wonderful state, and his soul seemed to have touched the origin of this world.


    Originally, he could not see the laws of the Heavenly Dao being displayed in front of his eyes.


    Time seemed to have come to a halt at this moment, and everyone around him was frozen solid.


    But soon, an intense bout of pain began to appear.


    Cracks began to appear around his soul.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s soul was not strong enough to directly come into contact with the laws of the Heavenly Dao.


    Therefore, he had no choice but to return his soul to his physical body.


    The warmth of an infant returning to its mother¡¯s body immediately filled his entire body.


    ¡°The Physical Dao¡­¡±


    After his soul left his body for a short while, he came into contact with a trace of the origin of the Physical Dao.


    Power was not all about raw strength, and it could not be summarized simply by breaking 10,000 laws with one force.


    The Physical Dao was not all about the power of the physical body or realm suppression. The Physical Dao was the embodiment of the power system, the extraordinary types of strength one could muster.


    The Physical Dao included all the power systems. It was the beginning, the sum, and the end of all the power systems.


    From this point of view, Zhou Feng suddenly felt that his physical body had become flexible and at ease.


    How to control and utilize power was something worth thinking about.


    ¡°This feeling is¡­¡±


    Zhao Tianxing¡¯s hair stood on end as a dangerous aura continuously assaulted him.


    Zhou Feng had clearly not made a move yet, but he could already feel an invisible pressure.


    Space distorted, and an abundant force gushed out.


    Zhao Tianxing was stunned. He did not know when his head had been snapped.


    Zhou Feng did not seem to have made any moves. What was going on!?


    Why was the suppression of the Skydream Formation useless?


    All sorts of questions kept popping up in Zhao Tianxing¡¯s mind.


    Following that, a series of sounds rang out. None of the people present could escape Zhou Feng¡¯s attack.


    Their physical bodies began to twist at a strange angle, one after another.


    All of them fell!


    ¡°How is this possible!?¡±


    Zhao Tianxing, whose head had been twisted off, was still alive and had witnessed all of this with his own eyes.


    He did not understand what had happened. How could the situation have been completely reversed in an instant?


    The Skydream Formation began to operate crazily. It wanted to forcefully suppress Zhou Feng, and the law chains shook violently.


    Zhou Feng just stood there quietly and allowed the chains to lock him up.


    However, the surrounding disciples of the Daemon League died one by one.


    Was the Skydream Formation useless?


    This terrifying thought just appeared in Zhao Tianxing¡¯s mind.


    ¡°Is this the wonder of controlling power?¡±


    Zhou Feng allowed the chains to seal his physical body, and he even took the initiative to accept this power.


    However, he was using this power to attack.


    This was his new understanding of power after his epiphany.


    The Physical Dao! It was the end of all power systems, so he could control all power.


    What he did just now was actually borrowing the power of the Skydream Formation.


    Although it was very taxing, it gave him a brand new feeling.


    ¡°But this price is also real¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was almost on the verge of collapse.


    Borrowing power required him to endure this completely unfamiliar power.


    The Skydream Formation¡¯s power penetrated through his physical body, and even with the immortal golden bones supporting him, his physical body was on the verge of collapse.


    But this was enough.


    No one was still alive. After Zhao Tianxing was crushed a few times, his aura instantly dissipated.


    Blood dyed the entire world. Zhou Feng dragged his body and began to walk forward step by step.


    ¡­


    ¡°They¡¯re all dead1?


    After Yang Zhe received the news, he almost couldn¡¯t recover.


    How did an Ascendant Elder die? Moreover, Zhao Tianxing almost didn¡¯t make a move. He used the Skydream Formation to suppress Zhou Feng.


    In the end, he died for no reason. As for the other disciples, they died even more miserably.


    He couldn¡¯t imagine how powerful Zhou Feng was and what had happened at that time.


    But now he knew that this matter was really troublesome because the Daemon League couldn¡¯t spare any more forces to deal with Zhou Feng.


    Now the Daemon League had to do its best to suppress the karma between heaven and earth so that the easternmost region could be divided smoothly.


    ¡°In the end, I still have to take action!¡±


    Yang Zhe sighed.


    If there was anyone else in the entire Daemon League who could move, it was him.


    The Daemon League and Zhou Feng had formed a huge karmic connection. If they wanted to sever this karmic connection, they would have to go through a battle.


    They had completely disregarded Zhou Feng before, but now it had evolved into this situation.


    It had to be said that Zhou Feng¡¯s improvement speed was truly terrifying.


    ¡°This kind of person¡­ The Central Plains is where he belongs!¡±


    Yang Zhe continuously sighed, but the killing intent in his eyes gradually got denser.


    Such a monster would still have a place in the Central Plains.


    Unfortunately, he had a conflict with the Daemon League. For the sake of safety, Yang Zhe would never allow Zhou Feng to continue to grow.


    Once Zhou Feng continued to grow, even he might not be able to suppress him.


    Thus, he should end him now!!


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng took one step at a time and continued advancing toward the easternmost region¡¯s center.


    During this process, the injuries on his body had completely recovered.


    However, the frustration in his heart grew stronger and stronger.


    This was because there were countless vengeful souls along the way, and white bones covered the ground.


    This was the mark left behind by the Spirit Filling Convention. The birth of this piece of land not only required countless Spiritual Veins to fill the ground but also a large number of blood sacrifices. As such, countless people were used as sacrifices.


    Zhou Feng admitted that he wasn¡¯t a good person and didn¡¯t show any mercy when he struck.


    There were many people who had died at his hands.


    However, his actions were like a drop in the ocean compared to the scene before him.


    The road was paved with flesh and bones.


    Zhou Feng could see that all of this was to bind the Spiritual Veins underground.


    The essence of flesh and blood and the resentment of the dead souls were like a cage with thorns, firmly binding the Spiritual Veins that were filled with spiritual radiance underground.


    Then, the Spiritual Veins underground would slowly fuse with each other over time until they could not leave the ley lines.


    Then, the Daemon League¡¯s plan would be a success.


    It was hard to imagine how many people had died in such a large area of the easternmost region.


    The easternmost region was not very large, but the population of the Eastern Land had decreased because of it.


    Just a simple thought, and the answer he got made his hair stand on end.


    The gloominess in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart grew thicker and thicker, and his mood became more and more displeased.


    ¡°I¡¯m displeased! Then don¡¯t even think about having a good time!¡±


    Cultivation was just f*cking cultivating according to one¡¯s will. If he was displeased, then what was the point of cultivating?


    In any case, his passive skills just so happened to be lacking in stacks.


    His Soul Harvesting, Talent Plundering, Human Slayer were all without any restrictions and could be stacked infinitely.


    Since the Eastern Land was already like this, it should become a no man¡¯s land!

 Chapter 634

    Chapter 634: Don¡¯t Hold Back!


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Temporarily avoid going outside!¡±


    This was an order from Yang Zhe.


    Obviously, Zhou Feng¡¯s current strength was not something an ordinary person could handle.


    Since that was the case, Yang Zhe did not intend to let others go to their deaths. The previous losses were already big enough.


    If he continued to lose his disciples, then it would be even more difficult for the easternmost region to break away from the Eastern Land.


    The Skydream Formation needed many people to unleash its full power.


    Furthermore, it was a person with a unified concept. Only by combining all the people with a unified concept could the easternmost region break away from the shackles.


    This caused Zhou Feng¡¯s journey to be smooth.


    Everywhere he went, there was no one. There were usually only traces, but there were no people around.


    At the same time, a mysterious force was continuously forcing him to go to a place.


    ¡°If you want me to go to this place, then I won¡¯t!¡±


    The rebellious feeling in his heart was instantly stimulated.


    It was time to end it!


    Before he left the Eastern Land, he had to destroy the easternmost region and end the Daemon League.


    ¡°I want to become stronger! I want more resources! This is the only way to get to the Central Plains!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s worries were completely released.


    ¡°I¡¯ll draw a new passive skill first!¡±


    Before he implemented his thoughts, he first drew a new passive skill.


    The frenzied killing caused the progress bar on the skill panel to be full again.


    Ever since he started the frenzied killing, the frequency of him drawing passive skills became higher and higher.


    His strength also increased by leaps and bounds.


    He had entered a state of enlightenment earlier because his aptitude had increased.


    After accumulating for so long, the passive Talent Plundering finally showed its effect. His passive skills seemed to be taking shape bit by bit.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Disintegration: Every time you attack, there is a chance to cause the opponent¡¯s body to crack and enter a sluggish state,


    (Sluggish state: Your opponent¡¯s reaction speed and recovery speed will be reduced!)


    Zhou Feng looked at the new passive skill, and his heart fluctuated a little.


    This new passive skill still did not disappoint him.


    However, after witnessing all sorts of heaven-defying passives, this new passive skill was only normal.


    Nonetheless, slowing down the recovery of his opponent¡¯s injuries was not bad.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s begin!¡±


    After gaining the new passive skill, Zhou Feng took a deep breath and filled his entire body with Spiritual Qi and Blood Qi.


    A violent force began to spread out.


    Zhou Feng punched out on the spot, and endless power poured into the ground.


    For a moment, the earth cracked, and Spiritual Qi threads leaked from the ground.


    ¡°Ha! Again!¡±


    He did not stop hammering the ground.


    He looked like a madman, hammering the ground crazily for no reason.


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy hammering, the ground kept cracking.


    The Spiritual Veins buried under the ground were slightly broken, and the essence of the Spiritual Veins began to leak out.


    These broken parts of the Spiritual Veins turned into pure Spiritual Qi and kept surging up.


    Zhou Feng kept devouring the Spiritual Qi, so he wasn¡¯t afraid of bursting.


    With the existence of the Fate Wheel, no matter how much Spiritual Qi there was, it could be transformed into longevity substances. Therefore, he was completely able to withstand this huge amount of Spiritual Qi.


    Another thing was that this Spiritual Qi was much more violent than the Spiritual Qi that wandered between heaven and earth.


    It was just enough to temper his body.


    Zhou Feng had been feeling that his body cultivation was stagnant.


    It was probably because there was not enough pressure. The pressure caused by the shattering of the Spiritual Vein could be used to temper his body.


    Since he wanted to destroy the easternmost region, he would start by destroying the underground Spiritual Veins.


    Yang Zhe didn¡¯t expect Zhou Fenghui to suddenly go crazy.


    ¡°W-What is he doing!?¡±


    He wanted to destroy the underground Spiritual Vein in the easternmost region alone? What kind of joke was this?


    These Spiritual Veins were already tightly bound to the easternmost region. It could be said that the slightest move would affect the whole body.


    Destroying a Spiritual Vein alone was something that even Yang Zhe didn¡¯t dare to say he could do.


    This was because the backlash from the Spiritual Vein alone, as well as the violent power of the earth vein, was enough to make an Ascendant suffer.


    Making an enemy of the power of heaven and earth was the most foolish thing to do.


    Even the strongest cultivator wouldn¡¯t think of destroying a Spiritual Vein.


    Apart from the fact that a Spiritual Vein was difficult to destroy, one needed to bear a huge amount of karma between heaven and earth.


    The karma between heaven and earth was something that couldn¡¯t be seen or touched, but all cultivators were extremely afraid of it.


    Therefore, when Yang Zhe found out what Zhou Feng was doing, he had no intention of stopping him.


    ¡°He actually wants to die! Then let him be!¡±


    Yang Zhe originally wanted to use the smallest amount of power to finish off Zhou Feng.


    After all, he was currently suppressing the karma between heaven and earth, so it wasn¡¯t suitable for him to use too much power.


    If he could use the Skydream Formation to quietly finish off Zhou Feng, it would naturally be the best.


    Since Zhou Feng was courting death, Yang Zhe didn¡¯t even need to do it himself.


    In fact, it was just as Yang Zhe had expected.


    After Zhou Feng continuously bombarded the Spiritual Veins underground, although he could shake out some of the Spiritual Veins¡¯ essence, the backlash from the Spiritual Veins soon arrived.


    The violent power of the earth vein was like a volcano erupting, crashing into Zhou Feng¡¯s body in an instant.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body seemed to have been knocked flying by a train.


    Then, he fiercely crashed onto the ground.


    He felt that a few of his bones were broken, but these injuries slowly recovered.


    After his injuries recovered, Zhou Feng was like a foolish old man, wholeheartedly bombarding the Spiritual Veins underground.


    And taking advantage of this opportunity, he fully comprehended the Physical Dao.


    He comprehended how to borrow, unleash, and resist power with his physical body!


    Under Zhou Feng¡¯s crazy destruction, the area within a radius of 500 kilometers around him became riddled with holes, and more and more Spiritual Veins were forced out.


    At that moment, he was like a demonic god that was turning the entire world into chaos.


    Not only did his aura not weaken, but it was even getting stronger.


    Fighting against the Spiritual Veins was like fighting against heaven and earth. This feeling of fighting against the heavens caused Zhou Feng to enter a special state.


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    Yang Zhe, who was originally suppressing the karma between heaven and earth, suddenly realized that the Skydream Formation was actually damaged!


    Then, he discovered that while Zhou Feng was continuously bombarding the Spiritual Vein, not only was he not injured, but he was getting stronger and stronger.


    One of the Spiritual Veins was even on the verge of disintegrating.


    After realizing this, Yang Zhe could no longer sit still.


    There was such a weirdo in this world?


    ¡°Impossible! Impossible!¡±


    Yang Zhe didn¡¯t believe that Zhou Feng could destroy the Spiritual Veins underground in the easternmost region with such a brutal method.


    However, the uneasiness in his heart made him unable to sit still.


    ¡°Attack!¡±


    At that moment, Yang Zhe didn¡¯t hold back anymore. He had to attack Zhou Feng.


    If he could get rid of this hidden danger as soon as possible, there wouldn¡¯t be so many things to do.


    To be honest, Yang Zhe had been a little arrogant before. After all, he was the Daemon League¡¯s leader. It would be a little beneath his dignity to deal with Zhou Feng, a Dao Enlightenment cultivator, personally.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s previous performance made Yang Zhe a little apprehensive.


    It was because of this apprehension that Yang Zhe was cautious and arrogant, allowing Zhou Feng to do as he pleased.

    Chapter 635: Emperor Coiling Cauldron


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Due to Zhou Feng¡¯s rampage, the Spiritual Veins beneath the easternmost region were all shattered.


    The result of the destruction of the Spiritual Veins was that the scene was like a natural disaster, and the surroundings were in a mess.


    ¡°Little b*stard! You¡¯re courting death!¡±


    Yang Zhe suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Feng.


    Along with Yang Zhe¡¯s arrival, ancient patterns slowly appeared in the surroundings, and the Skydream Formation was truly awakened.


    An endless amount of light enveloped Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Destroy!¡±


    Yang Zhe¡¯s voice was low, and his expression was ugly.


    A divine light of destruction shone on Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Danger!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s hair stood on end. He instinctively used the Longevity Steps to dodge this attack.


    However, it was useless. The divine light of destruction continuously followed him.


    His body was instantly pierced through, and a large chunk of his flesh was destroyed.


    If it weren¡¯t for the protective barrier around his body, even his bones would have been destroyed.


    Anyone touched by this divine light of destruction could only wait for death.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Yang Zhe didn¡¯t hesitate at all. He used his strongest technique right from the start.


    Zhou Feng reacted very quickly. He took a step forward and disappeared into the horizon as if he had teleported.


    Moreover, after increasing the distance, Zhou Feng crashed to the ground.


    The earth shook again, and an underground Spiritual Vein was destroyed.


    The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to boil.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    He used all his strength and crazily devoured the Spiritual Qi that was released from the broken Spiritual Vein.


    His body, which was about to collapse, had now recovered to its original state.


    ¡°I want to become stronger!¡±


    Zhou Feng only had one thought in his mind at this moment, and that was to continuously become stronger.


    Because only by becoming stronger could he be able to fight against Yang Zhe.


    And when his strength increased the fastest, he naturally thought of his time in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    Although his time in the Tri-Gu Sect had always been filled with fear, and even his own safety was not guaranteed, it was the stage where his strength and temperament increased the fastest.


    In just a few days, his cultivation had increased by a stage. This was entirely because he had cultivated the demonic sect¡¯s cultivation technique.


    The demonic sect¡¯s cultivation technique that increased crazily without caring about the consequences was the most effective way to increase one¡¯s strength.


    Now, Zhou Feng wanted to absorb the essence of the demonic sect¡¯s cultivation technique.


    What was the essence of the demonic sect¡¯s cultivation technique? It was to ignore the consequences, ignore the future, forcefully overdraw one¡¯s potential, and only care about the present.


    The people of the demonic sects didn¡¯t even know how long they would live, so they naturally had to pursue the strongest form of power in the present.


    Zhou Feng used this as the starting point, and then he had to borrow endless Spiritual Qi to create a cultivation technique.


    What the heart wants! There must be a return!


    This was the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence¡¯s strength.


    Just as he had this thought, it immediately triggered the laws of the Heavenly Dao.


    Zhou Feng browsed through the cultivation techniques he had cultivated or seen in the past in his mind.


    The embryonic form of a cultivation technique instantly appeared-transforming the acupoints and absorbing the endless Spiritual Qi to change the body.


    He could use Spiritual Qi to null the damage whenever he was fatally injured.


    He also had to combine the passive Dao Protection.


    ¡°I should absorb the Spiritual Veins into my body!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly had an even crazier idea.


    The formation of the easternmost region had drained all the Spiritual Veins in the Eastern Land.


    Moreover, the Skydream Formation was also born because of these Spiritual Veins. What if he had countless Spiritual Veins in his body?


    He could open countless apertures and store a Spiritual Vein in each of them.


    When he punched out, it would be accompanied by the power of countless Spiritual Veins.


    When he suffered damage, the Spiritual Veins would share the burden.


    Since the Daemon League had held the Spirit Filling Convention and buried the Spiritual Veins into the ground of the easternmost region, he could also bury the Spiritual Veins into his body.


    Coincidentally, the easternmost region had countless Spiritual Veins! And if these Spiritual Veins disappeared, the easternmost region would also disappear.


    This crazy idea continued to be polished and perfected.


    ¡°Stop!¡±


    Before Zhou Feng could continue to make any moves, Yang Zhe had already caught up, and his eyes were emitting flames.


    ¡°The Skydream Formation is actually unable to restrain this child! We absolutely can not let this child continue to destroy the land!¡±


    Now, Yang Zhe already had an ominous premonition.


    He had never thought that Zhou Feng would actually be able to ignore the suppression of the Skydream Formation.


    Zhou Feng had been wantonly destroying the easternmost region, so Yang Zhe could tell Skydream Formation¡¯s restrictions on Zhou Feng weren¡¯t that severe.


    But he had never thought that even if he personally acted and activated the Skydream Formation, he still wouldn¡¯t be able to restrain Zhou Feng.


    This was simply inconceivable.


    The Skydream Formation wasn¡¯t just the work of the Dream God. It also contained the painstaking efforts of other mighty figures.


    Even so, Zhou Feng still had the means to ignore the suppression of the formation.


    Zhou Feng glanced at Yang Zhe indifferently.


    At that moment, he finally saw Yang Zhe¡¯s appearance clearly.


    Young!


    Compared to the other cultivators of the Daemon Alliance, Yang Zhe¡¯s face actually emitted a vigor that only young people had.


    But from the outside, many wrinkles had already appeared on Yang Zhe¡¯s face.


    He looked like an old man, but the first impression he gave people was that of a youth.


    Yang Zhe¡¯s body gave off such a peculiar feeling.


    Zhou Feng only glanced at Yang Zhe indifferently, and then his entire body once again drilled into the ground, leaving behind a huge hole.


    ¡°You!¡±


    Once again, Yang Zhe couldn¡¯t understand what Zhou Feng was doing.


    However, the ominous feeling in his heart grew stronger and stronger. He had to stop Zhou Feng.


    If he allowed Zhou Feng to continue like this, something irreversible would definitely happen.


    ¡°Emperor Coiling Cauldron!¡±


    Yang Zhe took a small bronze cauldron out of his chest pocket.


    The moment this small bronze cauldron appeared, a terrifying aura started to flow.


    ¡°Freeze!¡±


    A voice that had traveled through tens of millions of years resounded.


    The bronze rust cracked slightly, and countless strands of energy shot out.


    The wind and the clouds were stirred. The people of the Daemon League, who had long been hiding, looked at the sky in surprise.


    ¡°What happened to the leader? Why did he take out the Emperor Coiling Cauldron?¡±


    ¡°What!? Emperor Coiling Cauldron?¡±


    ¡°The leader actually has the Emperor Coiling Cauldron in his hands? Is it the legendary lifebound artifact Human Emperor Pan?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Many people were dumbfounded upon hearing the words ¡®Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡¯.


    That was because the Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡¯s fame was too great.


    As the lifebound artifact of the first Human Emperor, the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was an existence that could stabilize the nine prefectures.


    At that time, it was unknown how many ancient demon gods and experts of the 10,000 races the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had crushed. It was also unknown how many Great Demons had been cooked alive by the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Now that the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had appeared once again, it was definitely a huge piece of news.


    Not to mention that the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was in the hands of Yang Zhe. They had never heard of it before.


    The moment the Emperor Coiling Cauldron appeared, Zhou Feng felt his entire body being crushed.


    The sense of danger of falling at any moment reappeared.

    Chapter 636: Going Completely Mad


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Yang Zhe held the Emperor Coiling Cauldron in his hand and snorted coldly.


    Immediately, the Emperor Coiling Cauldron pierced through heaven and earth, connecting to the entire Skydream Formation.


    ¡°Submit! Submit! Submit!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt as if he was in an ancient era.


    A belief was crazily pressing down on his mind, commanding him to submit on the spot.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron was an artifact that allowed Human Emperor Pan to rule the world.


    Its most powerful function was suppression. With the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, all the races in the world would submit.


    Even after Human Emperor Pan died, the Human Emperor tribe used the Emperor Coiling Cauldron to suppress all the races.


    It was not until the Emperor Coiling Cauldron disappeared that the Human Emperor tribe fell in danger.


    In fact, a heaven-defying artifact like the Emperor Coiling Cauldron disappeared at a certain time, as if it was unloved by heaven and earth.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron in Yang Zhe¡¯s hand was actually an imitation.


    That¡¯s right! The real Emperor Coiling Cauldron had disappeared along with the fall of Human Emperor Pan.


    Most of the Emperor Coiling Cauldrons that existed in the later generations were imitations.


    But imitations were still imitations. The one in Yang Zhe¡¯s hand was an imitation of the Human Emperor tribe at that time.


    Its power was at least 20% of the original.


    ¡°Suppress!¡±


    Zhou Feng, who was hiding underground, felt that his entire body was locked.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally did not intend to surrender. He used all his strength to strike and fiercely hit his head on a Spiritual Vein.


    The huge rebound force helped him to forcefully break through the Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡¯s suppression.


    It was also fortunate that he had some understanding of the Physical Dao.


    He was able to control all types of power very well, which was why he did not die on the spot.


    After all, it could help him break free from the suppression of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron. One could imagine how great the rebound force was.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Yang Zhe was a little anxious.


    He kept trying to kill Zhou Feng because he had been jumping around for too long.


    Ever since he entered the easternmost land, Zhou Feng had been courting death, but he never died.


    Originally, Yang Zhe thought that when he personally made a move, Zhou Feng would definitely die instantly.


    But unexpectedly, Zhou Feng was not only alive and kicking, but he had also damaged the foundation of the easternmost land.


    Therefore, Yang Zhe was a little irritated.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron shone with an even more dazzling light.


    The acquired spiritual treasure was hovering in the air, emitting a terrifying and powerful aura.


    All of a sudden, everyone in the easternmost region felt like they were suffocating.


    In order to kill Zhou Feng completely, Yang Zhe mobilized all of his strength to activate the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    ¡°The deeds of Human Emperor Pan?¡±


    ¡°It actually appeared directly?¡±


    When the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was activated to the extreme, a record of the past appeared in the sky.


    It allowed everyone to see what happened in ancient times.


    ¡°Don¡¯t splash blood on me!¡±


    A sharp and harsh voice sounded.


    The youth in the center clenched his fists tightly, and the scene of countless humans being slaughtered was beside him.


    Then, the scene changed, and the young man had turned into an adult.


    ¡°Don¡¯t spill blood on me!¡±


    It was the same sentence, but the person who said it had turned into the young man from before.


    These were only a few short scenes, but they told the story of what Human Emperor Pan had experienced.


    As everyone knew, Human Emperor Pan was born in the era of 10,000 races, and the human race was only one of the weakest races.


    Therefore, the first scene was from when the human race was bullied.


    Human Emperor Pan witnessed all of this and then turned it around with his own hands.


    Just these few scenes couldn¡¯t help but make people¡¯s blood boil.


    It also showed how terrifying Human Emperor Pan was at that time. He was able to exterminate thousands of races by himself.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°Human Emperor Pan¡­¡±


    However, this scene didn¡¯t give the people of the Daemon League much of a sense of empathy because most of them had daemonic bloodlines. As such, they didn¡¯t have a strong sense of recognition for the human race.


    In fact, most of them even had a deep prejudice against the human race.


    ¡°Damnit!¡±


    Yang Zhe soon realized that something was wrong because the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had started to spread a different kind of emotion, which was even crazily infecting the others.


    The human race was supreme!


    The human race was the strongest!


    As long as one had seen the scene just now, they would subconsciously feel a sense of pride.


    Then, they would recognize the identity of the human race even more.


    The method used to forge the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was one of a kind-one needed to use humanity¡¯s flooding feelings to forge it, and it was very easy to infect other people¡¯s emotions.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was instantly crushed, and he let out a blood-curdling scream.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron that had erupted with its full power was a weapon of destruction.


    ¡°Retrieve!¡±


    Sensing that Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was about to disappear, Yang Zhe immediately retrieved the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    All he needed to do next was to finish the job. He absolutely could not use the Emperor Coiling Cauldron anymore!


    He soon regretted it, however.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s aura rapidly increased as soon as the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was retrieved.


    ¡°Swallow!¡±


    With the help of his broken body, he mobilized the power of his soul and forcefully absorbed a broken Spiritual Vein into his body.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to recover rapidly with all kinds of passive buffs.


    Just like that, his body instantly swelled up, and the broken Spiritual Vein rammed into his body.


    His flesh, bones, and internal organs were pushed to other places.


    It was as if someone had forcefully swallowed a log, and this log had forcefully expanded his stomach.


    It looked terrifying.


    Zhou Feng was enduring unprecedented pain.


    He wanted to open up an aperture with an independent space to accommodate this broken Spiritual Vein, but he had yet to succeed.


    His physical body was trying to digest the Spiritual Vein that he had absorbed into his body.


    It was because his physical body instinctively sensed danger, and this broken Spiritual Vein was the source of danger.


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t need to think of a way himself; his physical body was already thinking of a way.


    ¡°Space! That¡¯s right! The Arcane Ink Space!¡±


    In the moment of extreme pain, he thought of Ge Li¡¯s Arcane Ink Space. He had studied it carefully before and had some understanding of the Dao of Space.


    Then, Yang Zhe witnessed a scene that made his scalp tingle.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s stomach began to expand, and his skin began to crack and regenerate.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Yang Zhe felt a chill on his back. He activated the Skydream Formation again, intending to crush Zhou Feng completely.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body exploded instantly.


    Flesh, blood, and bones flew everywhere. The broken Spiritual Vein was also spat out.


    ¡°He¡¯s not dead yet!?¡±


    Unfortunately, Yang Zhe couldn¡¯t feel happy because Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was still there.


    Zhou Feng was only left with the upper half of his body. He hammered the ground with his head and burrowed under the earth again.


    His body and soul were forcefully locked by the Fate Wheel so that his vitality wouldn¡¯t be lost.


    A large number of longevity substances began to reshape his body.


    Before Yang Zhe could recover from his shock, Zhou Feng took advantage of the time to put a broken Spiritual Vein into his body.

    Chapter 637: Unable to Die


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    What was ¡°Swallowing dates in a hurry¡±?


    Zhou Feng¡¯s current state was ¡°Swallowing dates in a hurry¡±.


    He forcefully broke a Spiritual Vein and swallowed it into his stomach.


    He forced his body to open the apertures, which meant that he would be stuffed to death if he didn¡¯t succeed.


    Such a method was really scary. It was equivalent to directly forcing himself into a desperate situation.


    He had full experience in how to force a human to his limits. 1


    In any case, relying on his many passive skills, no matter how much he sought death, it would be very difficult to die.


    Not to mention in this state, Zhou Feng¡¯s understanding of the Dao of Longevity was even clearer.


    ¡°This¡­ What kind of madman is this?¡±


    Yang Zhe had never seen such a crazy person.


    No! He absolutely couldn¡¯t continue like this.


    ¡°Release!¡±


    Yang Zhe released the seal on his body, and traces of resentment began to spread.


    The chilling resentment spread out from Yang Zhe¡¯s body, and he slowly entered the Ascendance realm.


    Why did Yang Zhe only use the formation and the Emperor Coiling Cauldron to suppress Zhou Feng before?


    The reason was very simple. It was because he couldn¡¯t use his own strength.


    Severing the Spiritual Veins, moving the Spiritual Veins, slaughtering countless people, and all kinds of atrocities led to karmic backlash.


    Yang Zhe shouldered half of it. In order to resist the backlash, he could only completely seal his body.


    Then, he had the Elders of the Daemon League suppress the karma and backlash at the same time.


    One had to know that the Eastern Land used to be quite glorious, with countless ancient sects.


    But now, these sects had either fled to the Eastern Sea or disappeared.


    In order to get rid of these sects, Yang Zhe had paid a huge price.


    ¡°I want you to die!¡±


    ¡°Ah! I curse you¡­¡±


    ¡°Die! Die! Die!¡±


    The seal was slightly lifted, and countless resentful curses began to ring in Yang Zhe¡¯s ears.


    ¡°Emperor Coiling Cauldron!¡±


    Faced with this situation, Yang Zhe took out the Emperor Coiling Cauldron again with an expressionless face.


    For a moment, divine power surged, and the suppressive force enveloped all the resentment.


    Yin and Yang changed!


    ¡°Suppress!¡±


    A Yin-Yang diagram appeared behind Yang Zhe.


    Yang Zhe actually cultivated the Yin-Yang Dao!


    All things were born, and Yin and Yang were connected to reincarnation. Everything had its pros and cons.


    This could be said to be the truth of heaven and earth. It was difficult to pursue the Yin-Yang Dao because it required a powerful ability to comprehend Yin and Yang. The concept was too illusory, and ordinary people would not be able to reach the threshold.


    However, Yang Zhe took a different path. He actually had sealed all sorts of resentment in his body, and then he had the Emperor Coiling Cauldron that could suppress everything.


    Thus, one side was Yin, and the other side was Yang. He forcefully stepped into the threshold of the Yin-Yang Dao.


    Turning one¡¯s disadvantage into a weapon to aid one¡¯s cultivation.


    It had to be said that as the leader of the Daemon League, Yang Zhe still had something.


    As the voice fell, the Yin-Yang diagram began to rotate non-stop, suppressing Zhou Feng at a speed that was neither fast nor slow.


    Zhou Feng completely ignored them and dived into the ground again.


    ¡°You don¡¯t have a chance anymore!¡±


    A ruthless look flashed across Yang Zhe¡¯s face.


    The Yin and Yang diagram crushed everything, including the Spiritual Vein in the ground.


    The easternmost region experienced another violent tremor.


    A Spiritual Vein in the ground was completely crushed.


    Yang Zhe¡¯s face showed a trace of heartache, but it was all worth it.


    Because just now, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura had been completely annihilated. As long as this scourge was dealt with, no matter what price he had to pay, it would be worth it.


    ¡°You didn¡¯t notice?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was in a bloody mess, but his consciousness was clear.


    When that iYin-Yang diagram rolled over, he realized that it would be difficult to deal with it, so he pretended to be dead.


    When it came to the ability to pretend to be dead, almost no one could compare to him.


    The Fate Wheel directly locked his vitality, not even leaking his aura.


    At the same time, he completely fused with an underground Spiritual Vein.


    Even Yang Zhe could not find anything wrong.


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    When Zhou Feng thought he had deceived the world, Yang Zhe¡¯s expression changed slightly.


    Another portion of an underground Spiritual Vein had disappeared!


    Although it was only a small portion, it could not hide from his senses.


    Zhou Feng was not dead yet! Moreover, he was still nibbling away at the Spiritual Veins.


    From the very beginning, Zhou Feng had been crazily crushed by him, and the battle was even more one-sided.


    Yang Zhe did not know why he became more and more panicked.


    ¡®Why did he not die!? Why is he so difficult to deal with!?¡¯


    ¡°Get out here!¡±


    At this time, Yang Zhe changed his mind. He did not want to kill Zhou Feng anymore.


    Instead, he wanted Zhou Feng to get out of the easternmost region as soon as possible. When the easternmost region was completely divided from the Eastern Land, he would slowly finish off Zhou Feng.


    All of this was because his strength had been affected.


    If he could have gone all out, this little bug would not have survived until now.


    Yang Zhe forcefully pulled Zhou Feng out of the Spiritual Vein.


    Zhou Feng looked like a deformed little fatty at this moment. The broken Spiritual Vein was forcefully stuffed into his body.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not resist at all. He looked like he was in tatters.


    He put all his energy into saving his life, allowing all the attacks to ravage his body.


    In any case, he relied on devouring the Spiritual Vein to provide Spiritual Qi to protect the last trace of life in the Fate Wheel. In the end, he would be reborn through all kinds of passive skills and crazy methods.


    Beat me up! I won¡¯t die!


    Zhou Feng was in this state now.


    This was also the first time he felt that he wouldn¡¯t die, and it was in a situation where he didn¡¯t have a passive skill to save his life.


    The passive Nirvana Rebirth and Life Extension were still cooling down, but he knew that he wouldn¡¯t die.


    ¡®So Heavenly Venerate Longevity was in this state at that time? It wasn¡¯t even useful to commit suicide?¡¯


    Zhou Feng could empathize with Heavenly Venerate Longevity.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity might have been in such a state back then. No matter how badly he tried, he couldn¡¯t die.


    Heavenly Venerate Longevity couldn¡¯t get rid of his body¡¯s instinct.


    In order to kill himself, Heavenly Venerate Longevity had created a divine ability and succeeded.


    In Yang Zhe¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng was like a mud pile falling to the ground. However, his injuries were recovering bit by bit.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    What made him even more incredulous was that half of the Spiritual Vein in Zhou Feng¡¯s body had disappeared.


    The Spiritual Vein had disappeared? No! The Spiritual Vein had been swallowed!


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura became slightly stronger.


    An aperture had been opened. This aperture existed in the body, but it seemed to have an independent space.


    And the Spiritual Vein that had disappeared was in this independent space.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Yang Zhe mobilized the Yin-Yang diagram to wear down Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    But Zhou Feng moved with the Longevity Steps.


    Although Zhou Feng seemed to be in a mess now, he wasn¡¯t stupid. If he could hide, he would naturally choose to hide.


    His aura was annihilated! But soon, it slowly rose again!

    Chapter 638: The Hero Breaks his Wrist


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The Yin-Yang diagram descended from the sky like a world-destroying millstone, intending to obliterate Zhou Feng between heaven and earth completely.


    That suffocating feeling made even the members of the Daemon League hiding far away turn pale.


    This kind of formation was too terrifying. This was the first time they had seen their leader erupt with such terrifying strength.


    ¡°Is it not over yet? The leader¡­¡±


    ¡°He has actually forced the leader to such an extent? But why is it not over yet?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Not only the disciples but even the various Daemon League Elders began to ask this question.


    Yang Zhe had used almost all of his strength. Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng should have been taken down a long time ago.


    However, from the beginning, this battle did not show any signs of ending.


    Instead, it became more and more intense. The battle between the two sides could not be stopped in a short period.


    How strong was that person called Zhou Feng?


    A Dao Enlightenment cultivator VS. an Ascendant?


    And he did not die for half a day?


    The Ascendance realm meant that one had shed their mortal skin, and they could better control the laws of the great Dao.


    The Dao Enlightenment realm was still in the stage of comprehending the Great Dao.


    To be honest, there was a huge gap between these two realms.


    Not to mention that Yang Zhe also had the Skydream Formation and the support of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    As for Zhou Feng, he hadn¡¯t used any treasures since the beginning. The two were on completely different levels.


    But, Zhou Feng was akin to an immortal cockroach.


    The Fate Wheel locked all the vitality, and the Immortal Golden Bones maintained his body¡¯s basic structure.


    As long as the soul, the Fate Wheel, and the Immortal Golden Bones were not destroyed, he was akin to an immortal existence.


    Flesh, organs, and other things could be regenerated.


    Unknowingly, he was forging the Longevity Physique.


    ¡°Swallow!¡±


    After experiencing the disintegration of flesh and blood again, Zhou Feng survived another crisis and swallowed another Spiritual Vein.


    Under the crazy battle, the Spiritual Veins under the easternmost region were completely exposed.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Feng forcefully broke a Spiritual Vein and swallowed it.


    The aperture that was half independent of the body was completely opened.


    A dangerous aura began to circulate around Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    ¡°Aperture Space Technique! Success!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s calm face couldn¡¯t help but reveal an excited smile.


    He had once again created a divine ability that could contain the Spiritual Veins of heaven and earth for his own use.


    ¡°Impossible!¡±


    Yang Zhe couldn¡¯t believe that he really couldn¡¯t do anything to Zhou Feng.


    No matter what method he used, Zhou Feng was able to deal with it. Sometimes, even if he looked extremely miserable and his aura had already weakened to a certain extent, Zhou Feng just wouldn¡¯t die.


    ¡°If it wasn¡¯t for that detestable karma between heaven and earth! If it wasn¡¯t for¡­¡±


    Yang Zhe felt that Zhou Feng had picked a good time because he wasn¡¯t at his peak right now. Thus, he wasn¡¯t able to use all of his power.


    In order to suppress the backlash of the karma between heaven and earth, maintain the Skydream Formation, and allow the easternmost region to be severed perfectly, Yang Zhe couldn¡¯t use all his strength at all. As such, Zhou Feng just happened to take advantage of him.


    Not to mention that the many Daemon League Elders were also unable to move.


    Because of all these factors, Zhou Feng was allowed to do as he pleased. This naturally filled Yang Zhe¡¯s heart with unwillingness.


    ¡°Damn it! Get lost!¡±


    With no other choice, Yang Zhe could only throw Zhou Feng out of the easternmost region again.


    His physical body had already been unsealed once. If he continued to unseal it, the backlash would come.


    Under such circumstances, he could only send away Zhou Feng.


    Immediately, Yin-Yang Qi enhanced the Skydream Formation and forced Zhou Feng out of the easternmost region.


    ¡°All disciples, listen up!¡±


    After forcefully throwing Zhou Feng out of the easternmost region, Yang Zhe immediately began to gather all his disciples.


    It also affected all the cultivators who lived in the easternmost region.


    In fact, most people in the easternmost region didn¡¯t know many things.


    In the eyes of these people, Zhou Feng was just a topic of conversation. Most people didn¡¯t think that Zhou Feng could shake the Daemon League.


    But now, everyone in the Daemon League realized the seriousness of the matter.


    ¡°The Skydaemon Island Plan is activated! Abandon the easternmost region!¡±


    Yang Zhe made up his mind and immediately activated a backup plan.


    The so-called Skydaemon Island Plan was to abandon the previous plan of breaking the easternmost region away from the Eastern Land.


    Instead, all the resources would be gathered on the Skydaemon Island. Then, the Elders would bring their core disciples to the Skydaemon Island and leave the Eastern Land immediately.


    In other words, they would give up a large number of disciples, a large number of Spiritual Veins, and 90% of the resources.


    They would only keep the most important things.


    ¡°Finally, inform the people of the Central Plains! Aren¡¯t there a few sects in the Central Plains that have been coveting our easternmost region? This time, we can give them what they want!¡±


    Yang Zhe¡¯s heart was bleeding, but there was a hint of killing intent on his face.


    This decision was not something that an ordinary person could make.


    They had to give up such a huge foundation for a mere Dao Enlightenment cultivator? This was truly insane!


    Although all the Daemon League Elders were temporarily unable to act, it did not mean that they could not act.


    Given the Daemon League¡¯s terrifying strength, how could they be afraid of Zhou Feng alone?


    ¡°No! I absolutely can not accept this!¡±


    ¡°A mere thief has forced us into such a situation¡­¡±


    ¡°He still wants to drive the tiger to swallow the wolf? Those sects in the Central Plains are not to be trifled with!¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    After learning of Yang Zhe¡¯s decision, internal strife immediately broke out in the Daemon League.


    Most of the Elders did not think that Yang Zhe¡¯s decision was correct or that Zhou Feng was anything special.


    Even if Zhou Feng had some strength, it was impossible for him to force the Daemon League into such a situation.


    Although the Daemon League was in an uproar, Yang Zhe still had the final say.


    Yang Zhe was very clear that Zhou Feng was a harbinger of misfortune.


    During the battle with Zhou Feng, he could feel that Zhou Feng¡¯s strength was increasing rapidly, while his mysterious recovery ability was unrivaled. This was a monster that grew stronger the more he fought.


    If he continued to fight, he would only become Zhou Feng¡¯s stepping stone.


    The target of this monster should be the prodigies of the Central Plains.


    Therefore, Yang Zhe chose to retreat and made this choice with great perseverance.


    He would let the monsters of the Central Plains fight this little monster!


    ¡°However! This matter is not over! The Central Plains¡­ I want to go too!¡±


    This retreat was only temporary. Yang Zhe had already thought it through.


    Only when his great power returned would he take revenge!


    At the same time, Yang Zhe¡¯s mindset changed after witnessing Zhou Feng¡¯s undying performance.


    Yang Zhe could control the Skydream Formation, possessed the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, and knew many secrets, so why did he rely on a group of people who were a burden?


    At the Azure Fox Clan¡­


    The Azure Fox Elder, who had been dozing off, suddenly woke up.


    ¡°Why!? Someone from the Central Plains is coming?


    ¡°Why so suddenly?¡±


    When the Azure Fox Elder sensed that someone from the Central Plains was coming to the east, she immediately frowned.

 Chapter 639

    ?


    Chapter 639: The Gu Dynasty


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The Azure Fox Elder had fled from the Central Plains to the Eastern Lands.


    Therefore, she knew very well how terrifying the people in the Central Plains were.


    At the same time, in order to detect her enemies, she had set up a few warning formations to warn her if any of her enemies from the Central Plains headed to the Eastern Lands.


    Now, those few warning formations had all been activated.


    This made the Azure Fox Elder anxious.


    ¡°Maybe it¡¯s for other reasons?¡±


    After thinking for a while, the Azure Fox Elde chose to hide and did not act rashly.


    ¡­


    ¡°I¡¯m here again!¡±


    After Zhou Feng was sent flying, he came to the easternmost region once again.


    This time, the newly opened apertures had completely stabilized.


    The Spiritual Veins in the apertures gave him unparalleled strength.


    Every time he swung his fist, Zhou Feng felt that the Spiritual Veins in the apertures were attacking at the same time.


    Moreover, after completely swallowing a Spiritual Vein, the progress bar increased by a large margin.


    Obviously, swallowing a Spiritual Vein could obtain a large amount of destiny power, allowing him to obtain more passive skills.


    Therefore, he naturally would not let go of the easternmost region.


    There were countless Spiritual Veins that the Daemon League had transported over there.


    He relied on the special properties of the longevity substances and used Longevity Steps.


    Zhou Feng once again ignored the Skydream Formation.


    ¡°Oh? What¡¯s going on?¡±


    He had come to the easternmost region once again, but unlike the previous time, the current easternmost region was a little different.


    The last time he had come to the easternmost region, the feeling here was that it was full of vitality.


    But now, there was a sense of desolation, and the ground began to crack slightly.


    The underground Spiritual Veins were all exposed, similar to other places in the Eastern Land.


    ¡°Why is it like this?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little puzzled because the Daemon League had ruined the entire Eastern Land.


    The easternmost region was considered the last treasure land. Was the Daemon League going to abandon this place?


    But that didn¡¯t make sense!


    There were still so many Spiritual Veins buried underground that hadn¡¯t been moved yet.


    All kinds of questions surfaced in his mind.


    Zhou Feng never thought that the source of all this came from him.


    In order to avoid a tragedy and become a stepping stone for this fiend, Yang Zhe made up his mind and gave up this treasure land that had been nurtured for countless years.


    He took the nine ancestral lines and countless spiritual items and left the Eastern Land on the Skydaemon Island.


    All of this only took seven days.


    After Zhou Feng was sent flying, he could come immediately to the easternmost region. However, for the sake of safety, he had to recuperate for some time.


    He would come over after the passive Life Extension¡¯s countdown was refreshed.


    This way, he would have a chance to lock his blood.


    However, Yang Zhe had already run away after this seven-day delay.


    Before leaving, Yang Zhe comforted himself in his heart, ¡°Failure is only temporary! Moreover, that thief won¡¯t live for long!¡±


    This was because he had already contacted the Gu dynasty in the Central Plains. The Gu dynasty had always been very interested in the easternmost region¡¯s Spiritual Veins.


    If his guess was correct, the Gu dynasty had already sent people to the Eastern Land.


    Zhou Feng would definitely run into the Gu dynasty.


    The reason was very simple. Yang Zhe had left behind something, and Zhou Feng would definitely be attracted by it.


    In fact, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes could not move away at all.


    ¡°This cauldron¡­¡±


    He could not believe his eyes.


    This cauldron was engraved with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, plants, and the story of the Human Emperor tribe conquering all the races.


    Just by placing it there, a domineering aura suppressed all the monsters around.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron!


    Yang Zhe had left the Emperor Coiling Cauldron behind! He used it to lure Zhou to take the bait!


    Even if it was a replica, it was still a replica of the Human Emperor tribe.


    Its power was still not to be underestimated.


    Only the heavens knew how Yang Zhe made this decision.


    ¡°A trap!?¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that something was wrong just by getting close to the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Yang Zhe was confident that no one could resist the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, even if they knew that there was a trap.


    The benefits were too great, after all.


    This was the Emperor Coiling Cauldron that the Human Emperor tribe had forged!


    Just the Imperial Qi alone was enough to make all the cultivators go crazy.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng was not a normal person.


    ¡°A conspiracy?¡±


    Although Zhou Feng was momentarily tempted, it was only for a moment.


    But since this was a trap, why did he have to go on the mountain knowing there was a tiger there?


    If there was a trap, then he wouldn¡¯t go!


    Compared to the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, Zhou Feng was more concerned about the Spiritual Veins underground.


    How strong would he become if he could absorb all these Spiritual Veins into his body?


    So what if his opponent was an Ascendant? He would directly punch one out.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng ignored the Emperor Coiling Cauldron and smashed the Spiritual Veins underground with one punch. He then forcefully absorbed them into his body and began to open new apertures.


    Yang Zhe mustn¡¯t have expected that Zhou Feng was as ruthless as him.


    He wasn¡¯t moved at all when he saw the Emperor Coiling Cauldron lying there.


    Why was Yang Zhe so sure that Zhou Feng would clash with the Gu dynasty?


    It was because the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was also the Gu dynasty¡¯s target.


    The Gu dynasty was an ancient dynasty in the Central Plains. It existed for hundreds of thousands of years and was still standing in the Central Plains.


    However, it was only standing in the Central Plains.


    The Gu dynasty had already been pushed to the edge of the Central Plains.


    The longer a legacy was passed down, the more powerful it was!


    A legacy of hundreds of thousands of years couldn¡¯t compare to a heaven¡¯s favorite from another faction. They only needed a few thousand years to surpass you.


    A dynasty that had been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years signified that it was old-fashioned.


    The dynasty¡¯s royals were still cultivating a technique from hundreds of thousands of years ago. A divine ability from hundreds of thousands of years ago should have been eliminated long ago.


    If it weren¡¯t for this, the Gu dynasty wouldn¡¯t have thought about the Eastern Land and even had connections with Yang Zhe.


    Under normal circumstances, the major powers of the Central Plains wouldn¡¯t have looked at other places.


    Only an ancient dynasty like the Gu dynasty that was about to collapse would pay attention to this run-down region of the Eastern Land.


    ¡°Is this the Eastern Land? It¡¯s indeed very barren!¡±


    A figure broke through space and arrived at a region of Eastern Land.


    This person scanned the scene in front of him and immediately frowned, looking somewhat disdainful.


    That kind of expression was as if a person from a big city had come to the countryside.


    ¡°Forget it! I won¡¯t waste much time anyway!¡±


    Gu Chensha slowly relaxed his brows as he had already sensed the location of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Immediately, a wave of energy began to rise slowly.


    This world began to tremble in an instant. It had been a long time since such an aura had appeared in this region of the Eastern Land.


    A cultivator who had surpassed the Ascendance realm had once again descended into the Eastern Land.


    After the Azure Fox Elder sensed this wave of energy that caused people to tremble, she immediately thought of something.


    ¡°He doesn¡¯t seem to be coming for me!¡±


    The Azure Fox Elder felt somewhat at ease since this person from the Central Plains had not come for the Azure Fox Clan.


    Instead, he was heading¡­ to the easternmost region?

    Chapter 640: ¡°Belongs to Me Now!¡±


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Gu Chensha flew in the air. He looked at the desolate scenery in front of him along the way and could not help but frown again.


    The last time he came to the Eastern Land, it did not seem to be so barren.


    But why was it so desolate now? It could even be said that there was not even a hint of inspiration.


    What did the Daemon League do exactly?


    After a long period of silence, he suddenly contacted them.


    Gu Chensha wouldn¡¯t believe it if nothing fishy was going on.


    But even if he knew that the Daemon League had a conspiracy, perhaps they were trying to divert the trouble, Gu Chensha didn¡¯t care.


    How to save the Gu dynasty was what he needed to think about.


    The Gu dynasty had been passed down for so long, yet they didn¡¯t even have the right to continue living in the Central Plains.


    A heaven¡¯s favorite had shattered the Gu dynasty¡¯s most precious inheritance treasure, and from that moment on, the Gu dynasty¡¯s national fortune had already collapsed.


    That was a treasure that had been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years!


    It was personally forged by the founding emperor of the Gu dynasty and gathered most of the Gu dynasty¡¯s fortune, yet a single punch shattered it.


    To most of the people of the Gu dynasty, it was as if the principles of heaven and earth had been distorted. The feeling of their faith collapsing made countless people of the Gu dynasty understand themselves.


    When that heaven¡¯s favorite saw this, he even mocked them. ¡°A piece of junk from hundreds of thousands of years ago? Is it a treasure?¡±


    The nation-protecting treasure that the Gu dynasty treated like a treasure was actually an old antique.


    Although it had been passed down hundreds of thousands of years ago, there had been no progress at all during these hundreds of thousands of years,


    On the contrary, the other thousand-year-old sects were creating new treasures. One side had stagnated for hundreds of thousands of years, while the other side was constantly growing.


    It was no wonder that the Gu dynasty was eliminated.


    Even the Crown Prince of the dynasty, like Gu Chensha, was forced to leave the Central Plains in search of a new life.


    While reminiscing, Gu Chensha reached the core area of the easternmost region.


    ¡°That is!¡±


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron appeared in front of Gu Chensha in such a naked way.


    The Imperial Qi it was constantly emitting made Gu Chensha feel a trace of life.


    This was a treasure left behind by the Human Emperor tribe!


    The top-tier treasure that was once used to suppress the fate of the Central Plains was now placed in such a place?


    ¡®Where are the natives? Where did the people of the Eastern Land go?¡¯


    Gu Chensha swallowed his saliva. The Emperor Coiling Cauldron completely attracted his gaze.


    ¡°Above! There¡¯s¡­ There¡¯s also the body tempering technique of Human Emperor Pan!?¡±


    Suddenly, traces of the Human Emperor¡¯s destiny rose from Gu Chensha¡¯s body and resonated slightly with the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Then, he saw something that others could not see from above.


    There was really a secret on this Emperor Coiling Cauldron!


    Could it really be a pie from the sky?


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron was right in front of him, and no one was around him!


    If this was not a pie from the sky, what was it?


    Gu Chensha was faced with such a huge temptation. He braced himself, took a step forward, and came to the side of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    ¡°Who!?¡±


    Unexpectedly, the fluctuations of an unknown aura gave him a fright.


    Zhou Feng stood at the side without moving, quietly looking at Gu Chensha.


    ¡°What a strange aura! And that kind of Spiritual Qi¡­¡±


    From Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes, Gu Chensha gave people a very special feeling.


    The aura he emitted faintly revealed a trace of dominance, which was somewhat similar to the aura on the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    And that kind of Spiritual Qi was different from the surrounding Spiritual Qi.


    Ever since Zhou Feng created the Aperture Space Technique, he had tried every means to swallow all the Spiritual Veins in this place into his body.


    And he had succeeded!


    In just an extremely short period, he had almost taken all the Spiritual Veins left behind by the Daemon League as his own.


    Hundreds of apertures had opened up in his body, and these apertures were constantly depleting his lifespan.


    That¡¯s right! After these apertures contained the Spiritual Veins, they began to consume each other crazily.


    Up until now, Zhou Feng still hadn¡¯t found a solution.


    And the special power in Gu Chensha¡¯s body had caused the apertures that were consuming each other crazily to show signs of easing up.


    ¡°Who are you!?¡±


    Gu Chensha narrowed his eyes.


    ¡°Central Plains? You¡¯re from the Central Plains?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s AI had deduced through Hexadirectional Calculation that the person in front of him was from the Central Plains.


    ¡°I see! If I want to take the Emperor Coiling Cauldron away, I¡¯ll have to get rid of you! If the Daemon League wants to divert the calamity, you must be the calamity!¡±


    Gu Chensha gathered all the strength in his body. It was as if thunder was rumbling between his breaths.


    If he wanted to obtain it, he would have to pay a price.


    The cycle of karma was the most basic principle. Now, Gu Chensha was certain that Zhou Feng was the bane that prevented him from obtaining the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Therefore, he was ready to fight at any time.


    Although Gu Chensha had felt proud and arrogant when he first came to the Eastern Land, Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden appearance immediately woke him up.


    If he hadn¡¯t been close enough, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to sense Zhou Feng¡¯s aura. What kind of monster was this?


    Even now, in Gu Chensha¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura was erratic, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, giving people a very ethereal feeling.


    ¡°Emperor Coiling Cauldron? I don¡¯t need that thing!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change at the mention of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Although the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was very powerful and hid many secrets, he really didn¡¯t care much about it.


    At present, he was obsessed with developing his body.


    He wanted to seek death but not die!


    He needed a body that could be endlessly tortured, an immortal body, to accomplish that.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng did not care about treasures. What he cared about was how to eliminate the internal friction in the apertures in his body.


    ¡°Is that so? If that¡¯s the case, maybe we can talk?¡±


    Gu Chensha restrained his aura.


    ¡°Talk? I didn¡¯t ask-¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally didn¡¯t have any objections. He also wanted to understand the situation in the Central Plains.


    He would head to the Central Plains soon if there were no accidents.


    However, before he could finish his sentence, Gu Chensha roared.


    In an instant, the Imperial Qi descended from the sky and formed tens of thousands of strands of Dragon Qi.


    This tyrannical Dragon Qi flashed through the nine heavens and completely engulfed Zhou Feng.


    The mountain range collapsed, and the earth veins split open!


    The world-destroying aura annihilated everything.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    The Azure Fox Elder, who had just arrived, was instantly scared out of her wits when she saw this scene.


    It was as if a catastrophe had happened.


    Zhou Feng, who was at the center, had no intention of resisting at all. He continued to allow the tyrannical Dragon Qi to crush his body.


    Under the terrifying impact, he was sent flying, but his body was not injured at all this time.


    A faint light enveloped his body completely.


    Gu Chensha¡¯s attack did not even touch his body.


    However, Gu Chensha didn¡¯t notice this detail. He only saw that Zhou Feng didn¡¯t resist at all and was drowned by the Dragon Qi.


    Then, Gu Chensha immediately grabbed one of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡¯s legs.


    ¡°Chance! The Emperor Coiling Cauldron is mine!¡±

    Chapter 641: Automatic Battle


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    From the beginning to the end, Gu Chensha¡¯s target was the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    As for the fact that he said he wanted to talk, he was just trying to confuse Zhou Feng.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron was the only variable in the Gu dynasty.


    Whether or not the Gu dynasty could be saved depended on the secret hidden in the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Therefore, Gu Chensha didn¡¯t want any accidents to happen and even played a little trick for this.


    The moment the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was picked up, the calm earth vein suddenly erupted.


    This was due to the Earth Qi accumulated for over 100 years. It suddenly erupted at this moment.


    The turbulent Earth Qi hit Gu Chensha.


    Originally, this was a gift that Yang Zhe had left for Zhou Feng.


    Yang Zhe concluded that Zhou Feng would definitely not be able to resist the temptation of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron. Even if he knew that there was a trap, he would still pick up the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Unfortunately, Zhou Feng did not care about the Emperor Coiling Cauldron and put it aside.


    Now, it was Gu Chensha who bore the impact of the Earth Qi for him.


    Are you about to say that Gu Chensha was not prepared? That¡¯s not it.


    In fact, Gu Chensha had sensed there was a trap at the first moment.


    Otherwise, why would Zhou Feng let the Emperor Coiling Cauldron sit there?


    However, even though he knew there was a trap, Gu Chensha still braced himself.


    ¡°Dynasty Glory!¡±


    All of a sudden, Gu Chensha unleashed all of his power.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression changed slightly.


    A dragon¡¯s roar shook the heavens as a huge dragon descended. It was a dragon formed by the dynasty¡¯s destiny power, and its golden light illuminated the surroundings.


    Its dazzling light even outshone the sun in the sky.


    Relying on the dynasty¡¯s destiny power, Gu Chensha was able to withstand the impact of the Earth Qi.


    What was even more terrifying was that the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was slowly recovering under the blessing of the dynasty¡¯s destiny power.


    That¡¯s right! It was slowly recovering.


    The power this Emperor Coiling Cauldron replica displayed before seemed more extraordinary than many other replicas.


    Although it wasn¡¯t the original version, it was still forged by the Human Emperor tribe.


    Now, the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was gradually recovering and slowly displaying its original power, a domineering and peerless aura spread out.


    Gu Chensha, who held the Emperor Coiling Cauldron in his hand, seemed to have transformed into Human Emperor Pan. The heavens shook, and the world trembled.


    ¡°The destiny of the dynasty¡­¡±


    Gu Chensha discovered to his horror that the Gu dynasty¡¯s destiny was being devoured bit by the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    The destiny of the dynasty, which was already on the verge of collapse, had almost been sucked dry.


    However, it was equivalent to the complete liberation of a trace of the power of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Zhou Feng was firmly suppressed on the ground.


    ¡°Such power!¡±


    Gu Chensha could feel the terrifying power of Human Emperor Pan, who had killed many members of the 10,000 races back then.


    ¡®Establish a new dynasty!¡¯


    The Gu dynasty was still in a state of decay. Under such circumstances, it would eventually fall even if it was struggling on its last breath.


    It was better to take advantage of the remaining destiny power of the dynasty to establish a new dynasty and inherit the previous dynasty completely.


    At that moment, Gu Chensha suddenly realized that this might be the Gu dynasty¡¯s only chance of survival.


    And the cornerstone treasure of the new dynasty was the Emperor Coiling Cauldron before him.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron itself had the function of suppressing destiny, and it inherited the remaining destiny of the Human Emperor tribe.


    It was not difficult to create a new dynasty.


    ¡°Is this the true power of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron?¡±


    After adapting for a while, Zhou Feng was able to resist the Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡¯s suppression, but he did not stand up and continued to lie on the ground.


    Perhaps Yang Zhe had given up on the Emperor Coiling Cauldron because he could not bring out the Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡¯s power.


    It required the dynasty¡¯s destiny power to use it. This prerequisite was too difficult.


    Looking at Gu Chensha, who was deep in thought, he did not make a move. Instead, he pulled out another Spiritual Vein from the ground.


    Zhou Feng had almost devoured all the Spiritual Veins the Daemon League had moved to this place.


    Only the few Spiritual Veins near the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had not been devoured. Now that Gu Chensha had taken the Emperor Coiling Cauldron away, he could extract these Spiritual Veins.


    Another Spiritual Vein was absorbed into his body, followed by a crazy conflict.


    The apertures all over his body contained more than one Spiritual Vein.


    These Spiritual Veins constantly resisted, while Zhou Feng¡¯s body was ravaged time and time again.


    That rumbling sound was as if different worlds were colliding.


    ¡°Eh!?¡±


    Gu Chensha was shocked by this commotion.


    ¡°I was actually distracted! No! Where are the Spiritual Veins? In order to establish a new dynasty, a large number of Spiritual Veins are needed!¡±


    At that moment, he suddenly realized that the Spiritual Vein that Yang Zhe had gathered had disappeared.


    If he wanted to establish a new dynasty and become the emperor himself, he would need a large number of Spiritual Veins as a foundation.


    With a large number of Spiritual Veins, he could use them as a foundation to cultivate his wings.


    After obtaining the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, Gu Chensha¡¯s ambition began to expand crazily.


    ¡°Where did the Spiritual Veins go?¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng, who was lying on the ground, Gu Chensha¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly.


    Zhou Feng glanced at him and answered very casually, ¡°They¡¯re all in my body!¡±


    ¡®In your body!?¡¯


    Gu Chensha fell into silence.


    ¡°Then go to hell!¡±


    Without any warning, Gu Chensha suddenly made his move.


    A long spear shot through the air, accompanied by a few dragon roars.


    At the same time, thousands of soldiers and horses appeared in the sky.


    The Gu dynasty was very special because it specialized in cultivating the dynasty¡¯s destiny.


    As long as the dynasty¡¯s destiny was still there, under this dynasty system, everyone could use the dynasty¡¯s destiny to fight.


    They would also have the dynasty¡¯s destiny to protect them when they encountered danger.


    Now, Gu Chensha was using the dynasty¡¯s destiny to suppress Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng just lay there, his eyes not moving at all.


    That¡¯s right! In Gu Chensha¡¯s eyes, Zhou Feng seemed to be seeking death, his entire body not moving at all.


    It was this strange action again.


    Gu Chensha could not figure out what was going on.


    No matter how powerful or monstrous you were, you could not just lie there and let others attack!


    However, Gu Chensha quickly understood what was going on.


    A faint light appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s body and neutralized all the attacks.


    Then, the Spiritual Veins in his body began to riot.


    Zhou Feng suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    Gu Chensha¡¯s pupils contracted slightly.


    Similarly, without any warning, Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body crashed into Gu Chensha.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Gu Chensha naturally wasn¡¯t willing to be outdone and began to counterattack crazily.


    However, the fiercer his counterattack was, the fiercer Zhou Feng¡¯s counterattack was.


    What made him the most depressed was that even though Zhou Feng looked like he did not want to move, his physical body would continue to collide with him.


    If one did not take that earth-shattering power seriously, it was very easy to be knocked to death.


    That¡¯s right! Zhou Feng did not move his body willingly. Instead, the Spiritual Veins in his body started to counterattack.


    Fully automatic battle! Have you read about such a thing before!?

 Chapter 642

    ?


    Chapter 642: You Can Also Enter a State of Enlightment?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng¡¯s violent Spiritual Veins allowed him to launch a frenzied counterattack without even needing to move.


    This was because he had spent a lot of effort and almost exhausted all his energy in connecting these Spiritual Veins to his apertures.


    As long as his physical body collapsed, these apertures would also collapse.


    The Spiritual Veins in the apertures would also be destroyed.


    Although these Spiritual Veins had no thoughts, they had an instinctive spirituality.


    Seeking good fortune and avoiding bad luck was an instinct that all spiritual things had.


    By relying on this instinct of the Spiritual Veins, he could absorb countless Spiritual Veins into his physical body.


    Under normal circumstances, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body would only be able to absorb a few Spiritual Veins at most.


    His body would collapse because it wasn¡¯t strong enough.


    But now, he was crazily absorbing hundreds of Spiritual Veins, or even more.


    The more Spiritual Veins he absorbed, his body¡¯s internal situation would be more balanced.


    But correspondingly, Zhou Feng had to put all of his Blood Qi, Spiritual Qi, and soul into maintaining balance.


    Once he relaxed a little, the Spiritual Veins in his body would completely lose balance.


    ¡°I¡¯m so tired!¡±


    Controlling the Spiritual Veins made him feel unprecedentedly exhausted.


    ¡°What kind of divine ability is this!?¡±


    Looking at Zhou Feng¡¯s drowsy appearance, Gu Chensha frowned and pondered.


    There was no need for Zhou Feng to make a move as his body would automatically counterattack. Was there such a divine ability in this world?


    Gu Chensha was not sure if there was such a divine ability in this world, but one thing he was certain of-this person was very troublesome.


    He was not someone an ordinary person could deal with.


    ¡°Hope is right in front of me! There is no chance of retreat!¡±


    Although he felt that Zhou Feng was very troublesome, Gu Chensha did not retreat.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron would be the national treasure of the new dynasty, while the countless Spiritual Veins would be its foundation.


    As long as Gu Chenshacould got his hands on the Spiritual Veins, he would have the chance to get rid of the old dynasty and establish a new one.


    After hundreds of thousands of years, the old dynasty would be cleansed and transformed into a prosperous new dynasty.


    With the luck of establishing a new dynasty, Gu Chensha might be able to restore the Gu dynasty¡¯s prestige and compete with those true geniuses.


    ¡°The golden era that was predicted countless years ago is about to arrive. Cracks have already appeared in the immortal realms. If I don¡¯t fight now, when will I fight?¡±


    Gu Chensha, who had high hopes since he was young, had always felt heavy pressure.


    The Gu dynasty¡¯s subjects all hoped that a super monster would come and save them.


    Gu Chensha¡¯s destiny seemed to have been fixed from the very beginning.


    But at this moment, Gu Chensha felt a trace of freedom. An opportunity to control his destiny leaped in front of him.


    Countless memories surfaced in his mind, and all kinds of expectations disappeared from his heart.


    ¡°I want to be free! I want to transcend!¡±


    Suddenly, Gu Chensha opened his eyes.


    He let go of all his pride because he came from the Central Plains and no longer looked down on Zhou Feng.


    So what if he came from the Central Plains? So what if he was more talented than others? So what if he had the support of a dynasty behind him?


    No one could look down on anyone, and no one was invincible.


    After being defeated, there was no need to lose heart, as long as the person who finally reached the peak was himself.


    At that moment, Gu Chensha seemed to have realized something.


    In a place like the Central Plains, he would probably never have this kind of realization in his entire life.


    As expected! Although leaving the Central Plains was a kind of pain, there was a possibility of encountering other opportunities.


    Traces of a free and easy feeling were displayed from Gu Chensha¡¯s body.


    If Gu Chensha was like a person who was chained before, then at this moment, more than half of the chains on his body had already dissipated.


    ¡°State of enlightenment?¡±


    Zhou Feng lay on the ground and looked at Gu Chensha with sleepy eyes.


    He was also very familiar with the state of enlightenment.


    This was because he had entered several states of enlightenment since he started cultivating.


    ¡°Let¡¯s continue!¡±


    Gu Chensha looked much calmer now that he had dispelled a part of his obsession. Even his speech seemed to be a little clear-minded.


    Gu Chensha raised his hand lightly, circulated the dynasty¡¯s destiny power, and pulled up a 10,000-foot-tall mountain peak.


    The 10,000-foot-tall mountain peak was tossed toward Zhou Feng like a toy.


    As usual, Zhou Feng did not dodge at all and allowed the mountain peak to press down on him.


    ¡°Rotten old dynasty! How can we reform it into a new dynasty!?


    ¡°We can only burn the old dynasty to the ground!¡±


    Gu Chensha seemed to be talking to himself, but at the same time, he seemed to be answering his own questions.


    Gu Chensha clearly looked very normal, but he gave people a feeling of madness.


    The power of heaven and earth burst out at the same time, and the laws of the Heavenly Dao appeared at the same time. All kinds of great Dao laws interweaved together.


    ¡®Refine heaven and earth!¡¯


    The Azure Fox Elder had been hiding in the dark, so she immediately saw that Gu Chensha was trying to refine Zhou Feng alive.


    Such a method was simply sensational. He directly transformed into heaven and earth and mobilized the laws of heaven and earth. He pinned Zhou Feng to the bottom of the mountain and began to refine him bit by bit.


    However, Zhou Feng¡¯s counterattack came at the right time.


    The huge mountain split into two, and Zhou Feng¡¯s body emitted a faint light as he rushed out of the mountain.


    ¡°I¡¯m so tired!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt even more tired. Although he didn¡¯t want to move, he still raised his fist.


    Longevity Steps!


    It was as if the entire world was being trampled on.


    The Spiritual Veins in his body began to move wildly, locking down all the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings.


    This was also the first time Zhou Feng felt that the Longevity Steps were so powerful.


    All the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings condensed in a path for his feet to step on!


    He then threw a punch, its force shattering the fabrics of space!


    ¡°Emperor Coiling Cauldron!¡±


    Gu Chensha was like an emotionless robot as he picked up the Emperor Coiling Cauldron and placed it in front of him.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron began to shake violently. The high-frequency vibration would make one suspect that the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was about to shatter.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron smashed Gu Chensha, and blood sprayed out.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch was the epitome of violence, and it almost blew up the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Gu Chensha was also smashed by the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, which was sent flying.


    The outcome was that overbearing when hundreds of Spiritual Veins were working at the same time!


    Realm? What was that?


    Zhou Feng once again ignored the realm-level difference and taught Gu Chensha a harsh lesson.


    When the Azure Fox Elder saw this scene, she swallowed her saliva no matter how knowledgeable she was.


    The two monsters in front of her were too terrifying!


    ¡®This¡­ This¡­ This¡­ How do they cultivate!?¡¯


    The Azure Fox Elder felt that if she walked in front of these two, she would only be tortured to death. Even though she had all kinds of life-saving treasures and her cultivation level was higher than the two brats in front of her, she would be the one suffering.


    What made Azure Fox Elder feel at ease was that one of the two had formed a contract with a member of the Azure Fox Clan.


    Previously, the Azure Fox Elder had looked down on Xue Ji and Zhou Feng for forming a contract.


    Now, the Azure Fox Elder could only rejoice in her heart.


    Fortunately, Xue Ji had sharp eyes back then and was able to gauge Zhou Feng, the true freak.


    It seemed that there were times when one could not blindly believe in the elites of the Central Plains. Perhaps some pearls had been left behind elsewhere.

    Chapter 643: Otherworldly Constitution


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng¡¯s punch shattered Gu Chensha¡¯s body, and the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was dyed red with blood.


    ¡°The rotten ones will all be destroyed! The only way is to recast!¡±


    However, Gu Chensha¡¯s aura soared, and the Gu dynasty¡¯s destiny power began to dissipate.


    It turned into an even more primitive destiny power.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron shone in all directions, and Gu Chensha¡¯s physical body began to recover.


    At that moment, he re-entered a state of enlightenment, and his physical body, augmented by the Gu dynasty¡¯s destiny power, started decaying.


    If he wanted to break out of the cocoon and be reborn, he had to give up everything that was old.


    His flesh and blood were reconstructed!


    At the same time, a piece of precious jade on Gu Chensha¡¯s body emitted a dazzling light.


    This was one of his protective treasures. It suddenly jumped out because Gu Chensha¡¯s condition was very poor.


    The light emitted by the precious jade turned into a light screen, completely enveloping Gu Chensha.


    The destiny power enveloping Gu Chensha¡¯s body was also forcefully sucked dry by the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, and part of the rust on the cauldron¡¯s outer surface fell off.


    If nothing unexpected happened, perhaps Gu Chensha would undergo a true transformation.


    After that, Gu Chensha would even borrow the power of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron to return to the Central Plains and cleanse the entire Gu dynasty. Finally, he would establish a new dynasty and become its founder.


    However, Gu Chensha seemed to have forgotten that there was another person beside him.


    ¡°Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng could naturally tell that there seemed to be a connection between Gu Chensha and the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Dragging his exhausted body, he suddenly roared, ¡°Come over here!¡±


    His entire body erupted with a mountain torrent-like aura, and the Spiritual Veins in his body simultaneously spat out Spiritual Qi as he used his Longevity Steps.


    Gu Chensha felt as if someone had stepped on him.


    Zhou Feng suddenly stomped on Gu Chensha¡¯s chest and forcefully took away the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    That attack was simply unparalleled, and all the bones in Gu Chensha¡¯s body were basically crushed.


    ¡°It¡¯s useless! Even if you crush my body, I can still reconstruct it! I have already comprehended the meaning of reconstruction!¡±


    Although his body was shattered, Gu Chensha was very calm.


    As expected, Gu Chensha¡¯s body started to remodel.


    The barren ground around him started to bulge. Mountains rose from the ground, and plants started to grow crazily.


    Because of the Daemon League¡¯s hasty departure and because Zhou Feng had extracted all the Spiritual Veins, this area had become desolate.


    However, there was actually a sense of revival with Gu Chensha¡¯s words.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron in Zhou Feng¡¯s hand started to struggle crazily.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s response was also very simple. His right fist started to hammer the Emperor Coiling Cauldron continuously.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron would counterattack, shaking Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi went from being suppressed to exploding like a volcano, and his body became a mess of flesh and blood.


    ¡°You! Are you crazy!?¡±


    When Gu Chensha saw this scene, his eyes were filled with disbelief.


    He could see that Zhou Feng wanted to smash the Emperor Coiling Cauldron to pieces!


    For a moment, Gu Chensha did not know what to say.


    The most terrifying thing was that Zhou Feng really had the ability to destroy such an invaluable treasure.


    The Spiritual Vein in Zhou Feng¡¯s body continued to reduce the Emperor Coiling Cauldron¡¯s rebound force.


    ¡°So annoying!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s face was filled with frustration.


    After saying that, Zhou Feng forcefully held the Emperor Coiling Cauldron and mustered all the strength in his body. The Spiritual Veins exerted their strength at the same time.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Gu Chensha was smashed by Zhou Feng, who was holding the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Gu Chensha started to scream in pain after being smashed by pure force.


    The phenomenon of the revival of all living things instantly disappeared without a trace.


    ¡°Ah! !¡±


    ¡°Impossible! What kind of monster are [email protected]?¡±


    ¡°Wait! I am the Gu dynasty-¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s cold expression matched Gu Chensha¡¯s scream.


    Just like that, Zhou Feng smashed Gu Chensha with the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    The scene was bloody and gory. A Rebirth cultivator was smashed to death just like that.


    Even his soul was forcibly searched by Zhou Feng in order to obtain information about the Central Plains.


    Meanwhile, the Azure Fox Elder couldn¡¯t help but cover her mouth, not daring to make a single sound.


    Even though the Azure Fox Elder knew there was no use in doing so and that it was only to comfort herself, she still covered her mouth tightly.


    It was over!


    A Crown Prince from the Central Plains had gone from being arrogant in the beginning to recognizing reality, and then he felt a glimmer of hope when he entered a state of enlightenment, twice.


    In the end, Zhou Feng beat him to death in this place.


    What was even more tragic was that the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had completely absorbed the Gu dynasty¡¯s destiny power.


    The last chance for the Gu dynasty to recover had disappeared!


    ¡°It¡¯s finally resolved!¡±


    Zhou Feng only recovered at this time. The Spiritual Veins in his body collided, exhausting him.


    That was why he didn¡¯t want to continue to tangle with Gu Chensha.


    Originally, he had wanted to get some information about the Central Plains from Gu Chensha.


    There would always be some information missing from soul searching, but in the end, he still had to take action.


    ¡°Awesome!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly punched the ground.


    In an instant, the earth shook, and a long crack appeared on the ground.


    Zhou Feng could now erupt with the destructive power of a natural disaster, which made him realize that he no longer needed to be restrained.


    He was no longer the little cultivator who had struggled to survive in the Tri-Gu Sect.


    With numerous passive skills and Spiritual Veins in his body, he was able to dominate countless lives and even change the world.


    ¡°Passive! Draw!¡±


    After killing Gu Chensha and taking away the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, the progress bar was full.


    This time, he shouted loudly and no longer cowered.


    ¡®Passive? Draw? What does this mean?¡¯


    When the Azure Fox Elder heard these words, a trace of doubt appeared on her face. She clearly did not understand what was going on.


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    Otherworldly Constitution: Your physical body will undergo fundamental changes, enabling you to ignore all kinds of formations, illusions, and the restrictions of natural mystic realms.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    Although Zhou Feng didn¡¯t look excited, his new passive skill could be said to be invincible.


    That¡¯s right! Another invincible skill!


    Simply put, he could ignore all formations or illusions.


    If he also used his Longevity Steps,, who in the world could trap him?


    Could it be that he drew such a heaven-defying passive skill because he was about to head to the Central Plains?


    ¡°But before I leave, I still need to deal with one more thing!¡±


    Zhou Feng looked at the Azure Fox Elder who had been hiding nearby.

    Chapter 644: Breaking Through to the Ascendance Realm!


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng looked at the Azure Fox Elder.


    ¡°I¡¯ve broken the contract with your Azure Fox Clan,¡± he said in a very calm tone.


    He no longer wanted to focus his energy on other things, so he directly broke the agreement with Xue Ji.


    Compared to the so-called romantic relationship, Zhou Feng was more concerned about how he broke through to the Ascendance realm.


    Since breaking through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, he had been stuck in this realm for quite a long time.


    Previously, he didn¡¯t have the method to break through to the Ascendance realm, but now he already had the method to break through to the Ascendance realm.


    Zhou Feng had forcefully performed a soul search on Gu Chensha.


    Gu Chensha had lost the protection of the dynasty¡¯s destiny power, so he couldn¡¯t resist Zhou Feng¡¯s actions at all.


    Therefore, he had obtained most of Gu Chensha¡¯s memories.


    There was also some information about the Central Plains, which made it unnecessary for him to deliberately look for information about the Central Plains.


    Now, he could go directly to the Central Plains.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    The Azure Fox Elder did not know how to respond to Zhou Feng.


    If it were in the past, the Azure Fox Elder might have said a few words, but after seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s brutal behavior just now, she was afraid to speak casually.


    Zhou Feng forcefully cut off the connection with Xue Ji, then left with the Emperor Coiling Cauldron that was filled with fist prints.


    The Daemon League had disappeared, and so had the easternmost region!


    He had also swallowed all the Spiritual Veins here into his body. There was nothing in the Eastern Land that was worth staying for.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng planned to walk toward the Central Plains one step at a time.


    At the same time, he would swallow countless amounts of Earth Qi to balance the Spiritual Veins in his body.


    ¡°Central Plains! I¡¯m Here!¡±


    Zhou Feng revealed a trace of excitement on his face.


    One had to know that this was the Central Plains, a place that gathered countless Spiritual Veins and nurtured countless talents to ascend.


    From Gu Chensha¡¯s memories, he knew that the other name of the Central Plains was the Land of Ascension.


    If one wanted to become immortal, only the Central Plains could provide such an opportunity.


    That was because the Central Plains had united numerous mighty figures and gathered all their spiritual opportunities in one place in order to break through their original limits.


    It was also because of this that it was difficult to enter the Central Plains.


    It did not mean that one could reach the Central Plains just by walking in the direction of the Central Plains.


    The Central Plains was said to be a place, but in reality, it was almost independent from the rest of the world.


    If one wanted to enter the lowest level of the Central Plains, one needed to reach the Ascendance realm.


    Only after one¡¯s physical body had shed the mortal coil could one withstand the abundant and overbearing Spiritual Qi of the Central Plains.


    ¡°This True Dragon Ascendance technique isn¡¯t suitable for me¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng obtained from Gu Chensha half of the cultivation technique to break through to the Ascendance realm.


    To put it simply, the essence of the Ascendance realm was starting all over again.


    The ascendance had the meaning of death. If a person died, they would become a ghost, their energy would return to the environment, and their flesh would return to the earth.


    When a person died, their essence, energy, and spirit would be separated automatically.


    According to this situation, the sages had created Ascendance techniques, allowing one¡¯s cultivation realm to advance.


    The True Dragon Ascendance technique was to simulate the moment of the ascendance. The body, soul, and spirit would be separated, and true Dragon Qi would be used to protect the soul and spirit.


    Using this technique, one could reconstruct the body and return it to the infant stage perfectly.


    Because the soul and body were interdependent, as long as one¡¯s soul was still there, one could never return it to the innate state.


    One could only return their body to its original state.


    All the previous techniques said that one could return to the innate state, but it was basically unrealistic.


    Only by entering the Rebirth realm and separating the body and soul could the body truly return to its original state and take a step toward becoming an immortal.


    However, doing so was risky. If one did not control the eclosion state well, one might really become an Ascendant.


    However, this True Dragon Ascendance technique was not suitable for Zhou Feng.


    After all, he could not obtain the true Dragon Qi. Only the subjects of the Gu dynasty could use this technique.


    Since Zhou Feng did not have the backing of a dynasty, he had to improve and create his own Ascendance technique.


    Finally, he would enter the Ascendance realm and completely reconstruct his physical body.


    ¡°Who knows? After reconstructing my physical body, I might be able to solve the problem of the Spiritual Veins in my body.¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes lit up.


    His Ascendance technique would completely separate his soul, physical body, and energy.


    In this way, wouldn¡¯t he have a chance to solve the problem of the thousands of Spiritual Veins in his body?


    ¡°I still have the passive Nirvana Rebirth and Life Extension¡­¡±


    Others thought that attempting to break through to the Rebirth realm was extremely dangerous, but he begged to differ.


    First of all, it was because he had the passive Nirvana Rebirth. Although it was still cooling down, it wasn¡¯t impossible for him to wait for it to be refreshed.


    Other than that, the passive Life Extension was able to directly lock his blood when he was about to die.


    If anything happened to him during the process of his ascension, he would be able to endure it.


    Other than these two passive skills, there were also other passive buffs. As such, the ascension process didn¡¯t seem that dangerous to Zhou Feng.


    The only problem now was how to create his own Ascension technique.


    ¡°Although Heaven Rewards Diligence can give feedback, it can¡¯t reach perfection¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng clenched his fist.


    He wasn¡¯t too worried about creating his own Ascendance technique.


    What he was worried about was how to create a perfect Ascendance technique.


    Because this breakthrough to the Ascendance realm seemed to be a perfect opportunity, a chance to solve the problem of his body¡¯s aptitude and constitution.


    Once one entered the Ascendance realm, their body would return to its innate state.


    This was equivalent to returning to the stage of birth and then making changes.


    In simple terms, it was to return to the moment of birth and revise the initial parameters.


    Wasn¡¯t this a great opportunity?


    In fact, this was also the first fixed opportunity on the path of cultivation.


    As long as one cultivated to the Dao Enlightenment realm, they would be able to touch this opportunity.


    Those cultivators with unparalleled talent but extremely low physical aptitude would have a chance to make a comeback here.


    In history, there were many cultivators with unparalleled talent. They were born from humble backgrounds and had extremely low aptitudes, but they were able to reach the sky in one step in the Ascendance realm.


    After enlightenment, one would ascend. So this was the reason?


    Without enough talent to break through to the Dao Enlightenment realm, there was no chance to defy the heavens and change fate.


    Zhou Feng frowned for a long time until he finally thought of a good idea. ¡°Can¡¯t I just try it out again and again!¡±


    That¡¯s right! As long as he tried it out a few more times, wouldn¡¯t he be able to find out what was wrong?


    Until after the experiment was perfect, he broke through to the Ascendance realm in one go.


    When he thought of this, he felt that he was a genius.


    However, this kind of thought was something that even the various elites of the Central Plains didn¡¯t dare harbor.


    That was the ascendance! The price one had to pay for failing the ascendance was no joke.


    The kind of injury that one¡¯s physical body suffered would basically take a lifetime to recover from.


    Zhou Feng actually wanted to try it out a few times. This was simply asking for trouble!

 Chapter 645

    Chapter 645: Eclosion Eight Times


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Before heading to the Central Plains, Zhou Feng decided that he had to reconstruct his physical body and break through to the Ascendance realm.


    Thus, he would immediately start with the eclosion attempts!


    He didn¡¯t make too many preparations and directly started to use the crude method of eclosion on the spot to let his body enter the Ascendance realm.


    He completely separated his physical body and soul and then tried to return his physical body to the primal chaos.


    If it went according to the normal procedure, all cultivators would need to make full preparations before they ascended.


    The first thing was to ensure safety. After attempting to break through to the Ascension realm, life and death would only be in an instant.


    Under such circumstances, they naturally needed a treasure to suppress the soul to prevent it from collapsing without the protection of the physical body.


    For example, the Gu dynasty used the nation¡¯s destiny to suppress the soul to help the people within the dynasty break through to the Ascendance realm.


    Zhou Feng also had his own idea, which was to let the soul stay on a piece of Soul-Nurturing Wood.


    Soul-Nurturing Wood was a special spiritual wood that could temporarily bind the soul.


    He didn¡¯t know where he had gotten it from, but it was in his storage ring anyway.


    Then, he tried to remove all the impurities in the body and turn it into a special physique.


    ¡°It¡¯s a little dangerous! But this should be the best plan for me.¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally knew the dangers, but he could only do this.


    He needed to experiment time and time again to perfect the method of eclosion and then transform his body.


    When using the method of eclosion, one needed to pay attention to all kinds of taboos and points.


    However, Zhou Feng relied on his passive skills and directly used the Ascendance technique that he had just comprehended.


    Instantly, wisps of Death Qi were emitted from his body.


    His originally crystal clear and lustrous skin instantly lost its luster.


    Heaven Rewards Diligence!


    Zhou Feng¡¯s mind entered a state of absolute tranquility as the passive Heaven Rewards Diligence was triggered.


    Countless laws of the Heavenly Dao flowed through his heart, and he suddenly gained a new understanding of life and death.


    His physical body began to ascend inexplicably, and the physical body that could shatter a mountain was actually slowly dissolving.


    A faint fragrance slowly rose, his flesh and blood turned gray, and his Blood Qi turned black.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng seemed as if he was really going to die.


    However, the Spiritual Veins in his body did not agree. These Spiritual Veins were forcibly absorbed into his body, so they now had a symbiotic relationship with him.


    If Zhou Feng fell, the apertures that contained the Spiritual Veins would collapse, and the Spiritual Veins inside would also collapse.


    The Spiritual Veins¡¯ essence kept on evaporating, trying to save this body that had lost its soul.


    Don¡¯t even mention it!


    Under the nourishment of the Spiritual Veins¡¯ essence, his body actually turned from a declining state to full of vitality.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t expect such a change to happen.


    Under the crazy nourishment of his physical body, not only did his flesh and blood become full, but he even slowly stood up.


    He resembled a zombie!


    The endless underground Earth Qi was continuously extracted and then fused into his physical body.


    He didn¡¯t even do anything before his body began to wash away the impurities.


    It turned out that the Spiritual Veins in his body had discovered that the enormous will didn¡¯t suppress them.


    Thus, these Spiritual Veins began to rely on their instincts to protect this body.


    Even if these Spiritual Veins didn¡¯t have any thoughts or intelligence, they had the instinct to seek luck and avoid danger.


    The powerful will from before had disappeared. In the eyes of these Spiritual Veins, they would fall in grave danger.


    Therefore, they all put aside their prejudices and spat out their essence. Then, they extracted the endless Earth Qi from the ground in order to refine this body into an Earth Spirit.


    ¡°Something¡¯s wrong!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt that his Blood Qi was being consumed at an alarming rate, and his body was about to turn into stone.


    Seeing this, he no longer wanted to watch a good show. Instead, he allowed his soul to return to his physical body.


    Just as his soul returned to his physical body, he felt a tearing pain.


    At the same time, his physical body was crazily rejecting his soul.


    What was going on? This was his physical body!


    Rejection! Discomfort! Stiffness! and other feelings kept rising up.


    ¡°Is this the side effect of using the Ascendance technique?¡±


    Zhou Feng finally understood why most cultivators hoped to break through to the Ascendance realm with just one enclosure.


    It turned out that after failing to break through to the Ascendance realm, the soul and physical body would reject each other after separating.


    In fact, the reason was very simple. When a person died, the moment the soul and physical body separated, they would be under the jurisdiction of the laws of the Heavenly Dao.


    If the soul forcefully returned to the body at this time, there would be rejection. This was the basic principle that a person could not be resurrected after death.


    When one died, their body and soul would not be the same as before.


    ¡°After rejection, one can only forcefully integrate?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly. After the rejection, he wanted his soul and body to return to their previous state.


    It would take a long time to get back to their original state.


    At the same time, during the process of getting back together, both his body and soul were in a state of exhaustion.


    Therefore, every time he used the Ascendance technique, he had to be very careful.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll forcefully merge them!¡±


    Zhou Feng was not afraid of exhaustion. Whether it was his soul or his body, he could make up for it with longevity substances.


    Therefore, he began to adapt.


    The other thing was the Spiritual Veins in his body. With the return of his soul, none of the Spiritual Veins showed any abnormal movements.


    If Zhou Feng had not seen it clearly from the side, he would not have known that these Spiritual Veins had such instincts.


    ¡°The Spiritual Veins¡¯ spirituality seems to be a potential threat!¡±


    Zhou Feng suddenly realized that it was a crazy thing to put so many Spiritual Veins into his body.


    If these Spiritual Veins worked together when he was seriously injured, would he fall into the abyss in an instant?


    Although the probability of such a thing happening was almost zero, he still needed to pay attention.


    What he needed was the Spiritual Veins¡¯ overwhelming Spiritual Qi, not their spirituality.


    Wouldn¡¯t it be better if he could discard their spirituality?


    As he thought, he took a step forward.


    However, his physical body was not under the control of his soul. He took a step to the right.


    The feeling of resistance and rejection became more and more serious.


    ¡°Go forward!¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned. He forcefully controlled his physical body and took a step forward steadily.


    Although it was only a small step, he could feel his body trembling and countless wounds opening up.


    However, these wounds quickly disappeared without a trace. All kinds of passive skills were triggered, and with the Fate Wheel sealing his vitality, these small injuries were nothing.


    ¡®The repulsion decreased?¡¯


    After taking this step, he keenly felt that the repulsion of his body had weakened a lot.


    Therefore, it wouldn¡¯t be long before he could use the Ascendance technique again.


    ¡°This doesn¡¯t seem too dangerous¡­¡±


    After experiencing it for a while, Zhou Feng felt that the Ascendance technique wasn¡¯t as dangerous as what Gu Chensha had remembered.


    If possible, he wanted to try ascending eight times.

    Chapter 646: Arrival at Central Plains


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Just like that, Zhou Feng began to use the rough method of eclosion crazily, separating his physical body and soul.


    During the separation process, he used his soul to stimulate his physical body in the simplest way.


    Under normal circumstances, his soul and physical body would be separated after eclosion.


    Most cultivators would choose to strengthen the recovery ability of their physical body and their endurance.


    A strong physique was an essential thing on the path of cultivation.


    As long as there was a treasure trove of the physical body, no cultivator would choose to abandon it, nor would they be willing to become a ghost cultivator without a physical body.


    During this process, the fundamental difference in cultivation and comprehension would result in a different physical body.


    Special physiques were actually created from this realm.


    In this world, there were special physiques for no reason. Those with special physiques only had a powerful ancestor who had reached the Ascendance realm.


    Zhou Feng only had one goal for his body: to adapt to the longevity substances completely.


    He did not forget the ultimate goal of longevity.


    The Longevity Physique!


    This was the physique of Heavenly Venerate Longevity. This physique was incomparably powerful, and even the void could not destroy it.


    Moreover, this physique was constantly growing and devouring. As long as there was old tissue, the body would automatically remove it, and a new one would grow.


    Because of this terrifying physique, Heavenly Venerate Longevity could not even commit suicide at that time.


    This was because once the Longevity Physique was formed, even he could not destroy it and could only temporarily suppress it.


    The reason was that Heavenly Venerate Longevity¡¯s body could already transform into an endless stream of longevity substances at that time.


    It devoured all energy and transformed into longevity substances, continuously maintaining the physical body¡¯s health.


    Now, Zhou Feng was working hard in this direction.


    Moreover, he already had a clue. The passive Heaven Rewards Diligence was constantly triggered, giving him all kinds of inspiration.


    Zhou Feng walked forward in a muddle-headed manner. Was it because his soul was separated from his physical body?


    ¡°We¡¯re here? Is this the border of the Central Plains?¡±


    Suddenly, he felt the scene in front of him change slightly.


    The mountains blocked his way. His vision seemed distorted, and fog clouds began to spread.


    Zhou Feng, who had come back to his senses, began to recall Gu Chensha¡¯s memories.


    In Gu Chensha¡¯s memories, entering the Central Plains was not an easy task.


    One had to pass a special test. This test was used to stop those cultivators who weren¡¯t strong enough.


    This was a method that the various sects of the Central Plains had come up with together. If one wanted to enter the Central Plains, one had to have sufficient strength or potential.


    Only in this way would the Central Plains be able to continuously gather a group of heroes and finally choose the strongest person to break through the immortal realms.


    A path slowly appeared without waiting for Zhou Feng to think for too long.


    ¡°What does this mean?¡±


    Didn¡¯t they say that entering the Central Plains required a test? What was this now?


    After thinking for a while, Zhou Feng didn¡¯t sense any danger and continued to walk forward.


    At the start, the path before him was just small and narrow. After that, the path became wider and wider.


    This process seemed to take a very long time. By the time he regained his senses, he had already arrived in an unfamiliar environment.


    Yellow sand danced in front of him.


    At first glance, it looked like a barren land.


    However, Zhou Feng could feel an extremely pure Spiritual Qi. From time to time, traces of the great Dao manifestations would appear in the sky.


    The Spiritual Veins in his body instantly exploded and began to devour the pure Spiritual Qi in the surroundings crazily.


    These Spiritual Veins were basically all almost completely sucked dry by him. When he headed to the Central Plains, he did not know how many times he had tried to ascend.


    Every time his soul separated from his body, he would suffer a huge injury.


    Zhou Feng was constantly recovering by relying on all kinds of passive skills. However, the precondition for this recovery was that something was consumed.


    Therefore, the Spiritual Veins in his body were in a terrible state. They were almost all absorbed.


    Now that he was in such an environment, he naturally needed to replenish them.


    The 84,000 pores on Zhou Feng¡¯s body opened up, and a large amount of Spiritual Qi was absorbed.


    The sun essence and moon essence in the sky were also attracted down.


    In addition, longevity substances also began to gather.


    ¡°Is this the Central Plains?¡±


    These rich cultivation resources were simply incomparable to the Eastern Land.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt as if he had returned to the barbaric era.


    All the cultivation resources were in great abundance, and it could even be said that there was a bit of excess.


    Moreover, the most important thing was that no one jumped out to stop him.


    No wonder the Central Plains was the dreamland of all cultivators. It was indeed worthy of seizing all the spiritual opportunities of the other four lands.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was like a bottomless pit. The suction force was also getting stronger and stronger, and even some starlight essence was being attracted down.


    He crazily devoured all types of energy.


    ¡°Longevity Eclosion!¡±


    Taking advantage of this excellent opportunity, Zhou Feng directly used the Ascendance technique, separating his body and soul, and then tried to create the Longevity Physique.


    Longevity Eclosion was the technique he had developed along the way.


    It mainly used the longevity substances to separate the body and soul, and during this process, the soul and body were adapted to the longevity substances.


    ¡°Moo~¡±


    Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, a series of roars whistled past.


    The whistling sound swept across the entire land of yellow sand. Countless layers of yellow sand were blown up, revealing layers of white bones.


    Some of these white bones were rotten to the core, almost breaking at the touch. Some of them were crystal clear, looking like the bones of an unknown exotic beast.


    A heavy and oppressive feeling suddenly arose!


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t take it seriously. He just lay on the ground, motionless.


    No matter who was roaring, as long Zhou Feng wasn¡¯t provoked, everything would be fine.


    It was possible that the voice wasn¡¯t coming for him.


    However, reality proved that the owner of the voice was coming for him.


    The heavy footsteps made the ground tremble with every step.


    Zhou Feng, lying on the yellow sand, raised his head and saw a huge elephant emitting white fluorescent light.


    A Buddhist light surrounded this white elephant. The surging Buddhist light suddenly broke through the horizon.


    At the same time, this huge elephant also erupted with surging Blood Qi. The violent Blood Qi was like a huge wave that hit the sky as if it wanted to pierce through the heavens.


    ¡°Buddhist light? White elephant?¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned. He did not understand when he had offended such a white elephant.


    While he was thinking, the white elephant had already trampled on him.


    Zhou Feng had no intention of dodging, so he suddenly felt his head turn black.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body was trampled into a deep pit.


    Bai Xiang roared again. When he turned around, he found that Zhou Feng was unharmed.


    Then, the Buddhist light vibrated, and the sound of chanting appeared in Zhou Feng¡¯s ears.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body began to be roasted by the Buddhist light, and his body began to be infected. The traces of cultivation from before were washed away, and Buddhist teachings slowly replaced them.


    ¡°Convert? Trying to enlighten me!?¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes changed.

 Chapter 647

    Chapter 647: Nourishment!


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s expression changed slightly.


    This white elephant in front of him actually wanted to forcefully convert him. Clearly, both sides had never met before.


    ¡°Courting death!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s Blood Qi began to erupt. At the same time, the Spiritual Veins in his body competed to contribute their strength.


    This was because the Buddhist light could erase the Spiritual Veins¡¯ spirituality.


    The threatened Spiritual Veins burst out with terrifying power.


    After many ascension attempts, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body had already reached a critical point.


    But he still couldn¡¯t cross it. It was as if an invisible restriction was restricting his physical body¡¯s transformation.


    But even so, his Longevity Physique was still terrifying enough.


    Monstrous Blood Qi began to surge up. Even though Zhou Feng did not make a move, the entire ground seemed to have been shaken.


    Zhou Feng threw a punch, sending the white elephant flying.


    ¡°Kill!¡± he roared, and like a thousand thunderbolts, he burst out at the same time.


    Zhou Feng threw another punch, and a part of the white elephant¡¯s body burst.


    At the same time, the passive Bleeding and Disintegration were triggered.


    The passive skills he had accumulated previously were working one by one.


    Bai Xiang¡¯s eyes revealed a look of disbelief. Zhou Feng was clearly just a piece of trash who had just entered the Central Plains. How could he be so abnormal?


    ¡°Wait!¡±


    Bai Xiang suddenly spoke.


    Although the white elephant could speak, this did not exceed Zhou Feng¡¯s imagination.


    This was because after one¡¯s strength had reached a certain level, it was very common for beasts to speak.


    Especially after reaching the Dao Enlightenment realm, he deeply understood the laws of the Heavenly Dao. Mastering languages was not a problem for cultivators.


    However, Zhou Feng did not answer Bai Xiang at all.


    His surging Blood Qi continued to rise, and his Invincible Avatar appeared. An endless sea of blood was behind the avatar and the wails of the people he had killed echoed in the surroundings.


    The blood mist surged, a tragic aura spread, and the endless wails intensified.


    Zhou Feng broke one of the white elephant¡¯s legs, and precious crystal-clear blood immediately flowed down.


    This white elephant¡¯s blood was actually crystal-clear, and it was accompanied by a trace of a jewel-like aura.


    A trace of greed immediately rose in Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes. His body, which had been unable to break through, began to loosen a little.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on? Why is it like this?¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally noticed such a change at the first moment.


    The AI began to analyze continuously, and Hexadirectional Calculation crazily eliminated the wrong answers.


    A second later, he understood what was going on.


    Although using the eclosion technique could completely separate the physical body and soul and then adjust his physical body at will, turning a stone into gold was impossible.


    The eclosion technique also needed material support.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s body had not been able to transform successfully because he lacked the required material.


    Simply put, the Spiritual Qi and the longevity substances were not enough to transform the body.


    In order to transform the body, more things were needed!


    For example, the white elephant in front of him was an ancient celestial beast. Its bloodline was noble and ancient. In addition, it had been influenced by the Buddhist light¡¯s power of will all year round.


    Some mysterious special factors in its body could change its physical body.


    ¡°Let me go, outsider!¡±


    The white elephant sensed the greed in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart, and it became anxious.


    This time, it seemed like it had encountered a tough problem, and it was very likely that it would die here.


    ¡°My soul is in the reincarnation pool of Mahayana Buddhism. You can¡¯t kill me!¡±


    A simple sentence revealed a lot of information.


    ¡®Mahayana Buddhism?¡¯ Zhou Feng frowned. ¡®Isn¡¯t Mahayana Buddhism in the far west?¡¯


    As far as he knew, because the Spiritual Veins in the far west were all taken away by the Central Plains, only this Buddhist sect was left in the entire region.


    Almost all the other sects that were originally in the far west had disappeared. He didn¡¯t expect that even Mahayana Buddhism had moved to the Central Plains.


    ¡°Hand over all the techniques and divine abilities you know!¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t ask why Mahayana Buddhism was here. He just calmly asked Bai Xiang to hand over the Buddhist sect¡¯s techniques.


    ¡°What? What are you talking about?¡±


    Bai Xiang almost thought he had misheard.


    ¡®This person couldn¡¯t be a madman, right!?¡¯


    Those were the techniques and divine abilities of Mahayana Buddhism. How could he just ask him to hand them over it like that?


    There was no response!


    Zhou Feng took out the slightly bent Emperor Coiling Cauldron. There were a few deep fist marks on it.


    Zhou Feng picked up the Emperor Coiling Cauldron and smashed it at Bai Xiang¡¯s head.


    Instantly, Bai Xiang felt the world spin around him. Blood kept flowing out of his seven orifices.


    ¡°You¡¯re dead! You¡¯re dead! Mahayana Buddhism won¡¯t let you off at all!¡±


    Bai Xiang could already feel the killing intent in Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    As a Heavenly Elephant the White Elephant Buddha had raised, Bai Xiang had a very clear perception of killing intent. He even had a small ability to see through people¡¯s hearts.


    When Zhou Feng did not hide his killing intent at all, Bai Xiang knew that he could not escape.


    Therefore, he could only curse Zhou Feng crazily. His red eyes were filled with hatred and cruelty, forming a sharp contrast with the gentle Buddhist light emitting from his body.


    When Zhou Feng saw this, he could not be bothered to say anything. He smashed Bai Xiang¡¯s head into pieces with a punch.


    ¡°As expected, a portion of the soul is not in the body.¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately felt Bai Xiang¡¯s broken soul. It seemed that Bai Xiang was not dead.


    He had also offended Mahayana Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism would send people to hunt him down if nothing went wrong.


    But he did not care. Zhou Feng only cared about the elephant meat in front of him.


    He put all the precious blood and elephant meat into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    ¡°I can just stew a pot of meat to satisfy my craving!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not know how long it had been since he had eaten. Ever since his cultivation had advanced, he could rely on absorbing Spiritual Qi to survive.


    The habit of eating had gradually disappeared.


    Now was a good time to reminisce.


    The most important thing was the mysterious factors contained in the precious blood. These mysterious factors were the key to the transformation of his physical body.


    ¡®So, when the Human Emperor Pan hunted true dragons and phoenixes back then, he did not hunt them for no reason?


    ¡®Are dragon liver and phoenix marrow helpful to the transformation of a physical body?¡¯


    Zhou Feng suddenly thought of Human Emperor Pan. It was unknown how many divine beasts and strange beasts he had hunted, how much divine beast meat he had eaten, and how much precious blood he had drunk in ancient times.


    ¡®In other words, Human Emperor Pan¡¯s invincible body did not purely rely on cultivation?¡¯


    Why did no one who cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture reach the level of the Human Emperor Pan?


    They could not even reach half of it. Was this really because of one¡¯s aptitude?


    Zhou Feng seemed to have discovered some secret. No matter how strong one¡¯s aptitude was, they would still need a great tonic if they wanted to strengthen their body.


    Ancient medicine! Divine beast meat! Exotic beast blood!


    There was no shortage of these things in Human Emperor Pan¡¯s era. They had even reached the point of flooding.


    Moreover, the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had pictures of the Human Emperor tribe hunting all kinds of exotic beasts.


    After Zhou Feng put all the precious blood and elephant meat into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, the cauldron actually began to gather heaven and earth¡¯s essence fire.


    ¡®Can it cook on its own?¡¯


    A medicinal fragrance constantly emanated from the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    Zhou Feng was somewhat surprised.

    Chapter 648: Taotie Instinct!


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised. He didn¡¯t expect this Emperor Coiling Cauldron to have a secret.


    A medicinal fragrance spread out continuously as the precious blood and elephant meat inside were crazily condensed, and traces of destiny power were borrowed.


    This cauldron of precious elephant meat became sparkling and resplendent.


    The fragrance began to spread continuously, and Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t help but grab a piece of meat.


    After stuffing it into his mouth, a golden jade liquid started to secrete.


    ¡°It¡¯s so delicious! This¡­¡±


    After taking a bite, Zhou Feng felt as if he had ascended.


    A wave of energy continuously washed over his body, and his apertures started to absorb the essence of the precious meat.


    ¡°Ah! You dare to eat my body? How dare you!?


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape. This is the territory of the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom. You can¡¯t escape.¡±


    Suddenly, Bai Xiang¡¯s voice began to ring in his ears.


    ¡°The Supreme Buddhist Kingdom? This voice is¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly. Bai Xiang¡¯s soul had escaped, but he could still transmit his voice here.


    How did he do it?


    Although he had obtained some memories of the Central Plains, there was no information about Mahayana Buddhism in these memories.


    Not to mention the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom.


    He only knew that he had come to an unfamiliar place.


    Moreover, there was a special type of willpower nearby. In this place, the Spiritual Qi and the willpower seemed to have intersected.


    Zhou Feng had just absorbed a huge amount of Spiritual Qi, which contained a lot of Buddhist willpower.


    This was also why Bai Xiang wanted to convert him on the spot.


    Under normal circumstances, converting a cultivator by force was impossible.


    It was precisely because Zhou Feng¡¯s body contained a trace of the willpower that Bai Xiang wanted to convert him by force.


    ¡°Fragrant!¡±


    Zhou Feng ate Bai Xiang¡¯s meat in large mouthfuls.


    Bai Xiang¡¯s threatening words from before were directly thrown to the back of his mind.


    His appetite was greatly satisfied. The flesh of Bai Xiang, along with the medicinal fragrance of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron, made his Blood Qi roil.


    As his Blood Qi surged, he once again used the Ascendance technique to separate his physical body and soul.


    Then, he transformed his physical body, and the longevity substances constantly filled the gap.


    His soul was devouring the willpower contained in his physical body, and the Level-2 Gluttony was triggered.


    His Blood Qi broke through the upper limit, and his soul became complete.


    ¡°Gluttony was triggered?¡±


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised. Gluttony was the first passive ability he had obtained.


    Although he had experienced an evolution, he had almost forgotten this passive skill.


    The main reason was that Gluttony¡¯s passive effect diminished as his cultivation increased. A little bit of Blood Qi increase could be completely ignored.


    Just like Gluttony, some passive skills that were initially very useful had become dispensable.


    The passive Bone Coating, Poison Immunity, Night Guardian, and so on could be completely ignored, but he didn¡¯t expect that Gluttony could still be effective.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng glanced at the skill panel.


    He discovered that after killing Bai Xiang, the progress bar was full again.


    ¡®It¡¯s actually full so quickly? Was it because this white elephant had great luck? Or was it because of something else?¡¯


    ¡°Drae!¡± 1


    All kinds of thoughts flowed through Zhou Feng¡¯s mind.


    ¡°Drawing successful!¡±


    ¡°Gluttony disappears¡­¡±


    ¡®Gluttony disappears!?¡¯


    Zhou Feng was a little surprised. Could a passive skill disappear?


    But soon, he understood what was going on.


    Taotie Instinct: Your greedy appetite will drive you after gaining a part of the Taoties¡¯ innate abilities.


    Gluttony disappeared and turned into a completely new passive skill.


    ¡°Taoties¡¯ innate abilities?¡±


    Zhou Feng only felt a surge of hunger rising continuously.


    In the next instant, he separated the entire white elephant and threw it all into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    The medicinal fragrance became more and more intense, and the seven-colored precious blood shone with a different radiance at this time.


    Another mouthful of white elephant meat entered his stomach, and his physical body began to change a little.


    At the same time, some broken Buddhist scriptures surged into his mind.


    Devour everything and take it for its own use-this was the passive Taotie Instict¡¯s effect!


    No matter what it was, Taoties could devour everything.


    And the thing it devoured would become the nutrients it needed.


    Now, Zhou Feng had this ability. After devouring the white elephant meat, he had a chance to obtain Bai Xiang¡¯s physique or divine abilities.


    Then, he could make a choice. If he needed it, he would keep it. It would become the most primitive nourishment if he didn¡¯t need it.


    In history, Taoties would basically turn everything they devoured into nutrients to improve their Devouring Constitution.


    However, Zhou Feng could choose another path: strip away the divine ability and use it for himself.


    ¡°This¡­ Doesn¡¯t this mean that I can forcefully learn other people¡¯s innate divine abilities?¡±


    The first thing that came to his mind was to learn other people¡¯s divine abilities.


    Eat people? Wasn¡¯t this the perfect way to eat people? 1


    After possessing the passive Taotie Instinct, he could completely devour those cultivators with special physiques.


    ¡°No! Not good! Not Interesting!¡±


    Zhou Feng quickly abandoned the idea of eating people because doing so would make him unhappy.


    If he ate a divine beast, it would be fine. But eating human beings was still not worth it.


    This would make him unhappy. He didn¡¯t have cannibalistic tendencies, so he didn¡¯t need to do this.


    Soon, he turned his attention to Bai Xiang¡¯s innate divine ability.


    Through his passive Taotie Instinct, he comprehended an incomplete divine ability.


    This divine ability was called Evil Suppression!


    What was evil suppression? It was to suppress all evil creatures.


    As a divine beast of Mahayana Buddhism, Bai Xiang was born with the Evil Suppression Ability. Any evil creature would naturally be suppressed when facing Bai Xiang.


    And what was the definition of evil?


    It was very simple. As long as it was your enemy, you could brand them as an evil demon. 1


    This divine ability was so simple and crude, directly suppressing the enemy.


    ¡°No wonder I felt uncomfortable earlier.¡±


    Zhou Feng finally understood. While fighting Bai Xiang earlier, he had felt a force suppressing him.


    However, he had been too fierce, forcefully killing Bai Xiang.


    ¡°Good divine ability! I can learn it!¡±


    He was naturally very satisfied with this divine ability.


    Having the ability to suppress the opponent and automatically brand them as evil demons, wasn¡¯t this automatically allowing one to stand on the moral high ground?


    Such a divine ability should naturally be learned.


    Although it was only an incomplete divine ability, it was still a very simple matter for him to complete it himself.


    After eating and drinking his fill, Zhou Feng¡¯s spirit returned to his physical body, and the Ascendance method seemed to have improved a little.


    He didn¡¯t plan to leave this place now because he wanted to understand the so-called Mahayana Buddhism and learn about the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom.


    After entering the Central Plains, Zhou Feng was already prepared to fight all the way.


    He didn¡¯t want to escape because he wanted to follow his heart. He wanted to test how strong his life-saving ability was.


    He also wanted to see what realm was above the Rebirth realm.

    Chapter 649: Lure and Fishing


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Ever since he had eaten the white elephant, Zhou Feng had been walking in this desert.


    It was clearly the legendary gathering place of all spirits, but an endless stretch of desert surrounded it.


    This was somewhat different from the information he had received.


    The rolling yellow sand was also filled with a Buddhist light and power of will, wanting to assimilate him bit by bit.


    Moreover, the anticipated revenge did not come.


    Back then, Bai Xiang had shouted that he could not escape. This was the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom.


    However, more than 10 days had passed, and Zhou Feng did not even see a single living creature.


    It was just that the surrounding environment was becoming worse and worse. The desert, the scorching sun, the humidity, and other factors were constantly destroying his will.


    Fortunately, he was a cultivator. He had already abstained from grain a long time ago and could survive only by relying on Spiritual Qi. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to survive in such a place.


    ¡°Is there still no one?¡±


    Zhou Feng didn¡¯t know how far he had walked, but he still didn¡¯t meet any living beings.


    After saying that, he lay down on the yellow sand.


    ¡®Ascendance technique! Activate!¡¯


    After experiencing countless ascension attempts, he had long become very familiar with them.


    However, he wasn¡¯t in a hurry to break through. The reason was that there weren¡¯t many benefits to breaking through to the Ascendance realm now.


    He needed to train his physical body and soul to the extreme and finally ascend together.


    Zhou Feng had meditated for so long. Although no one taught him, he understood it.


    The so-called ascendance was actually a process of advancement, a process of advancing from a mortal to another level.


    Such a process seemed not to happen many times in his life.


    Naturally, Zhou Feng did not want to waste this opportunity.


    Lying in the yellow sand, he began his cultivation for the day again.


    Suddenly, waves of Buddhist light slowly shone down.


    Waves of Zen singing sounded as if one could hear countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas chanting.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Such a strange phenomenon naturally attracted Zhou Feng¡¯s attention. However, his body did not move, and he continued to lie in the yellow sand.


    Not far away, there was actually a small oasis. There was nothing else in the oasis, only a well and a tree.


    The tree seemed to grow luxuriously in the rolling yellow sand, and the crown of the tree was constantly emitting a gentle Buddhist light.


    ¡°Bodhi tree?¡±


    When he saw the tree, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind.


    Zhou Feng had never seen a Bodhi tree before, but he immediately recognized it.


    ¡®Bodhi tree? Right here?¡¯


    Lying in the yellow sand, he didn¡¯t move, even though the Bodhi tree in front of him was very noticeable.


    Now was the time for cultivation, so it was better to continue lying down.


    Ever since he entered Central Plains, Zhou Feng¡¯s personality had changed quite a bit.


    In short, his personality had matured, he was no longer as impatient as before, and he would set another goal after completing one goal.


    Previously, he was impatient and searched for quick success instead of cultivating step by step. He always wanted to take a shortcut.


    Before this, especially when he was in the Tri-Gu Sect, he wanted to increase his strength first and then slowly solve the hidden problems in his body.


    Developing before managing was his previous style.


    Now, he was not that anxious.


    Probably because he had become strong enough, the problem of survival was no longer urgent.


    Thus, Zhou Feng lay in the yellow sand for a few days.


    The Bodhi tree beside him did not change at all. It was still emitting a faint Buddhist light.


    Every night, the faint sound of chanting would disappear as if it wanted to rest.


    Another day passed.


    Zhou Feng finally got up from the yellow sand.


    The transformation of his physique and soul was still very slow.


    The mysterious matter provided by the white elephant seemed to have been used up. It was now extremely difficult to advance.


    It was also because of this that he slowly got up.


    ¡°Bodhi tree¡­ This should be the means of Mahayana Buddhism!¡±


    From the limited information, it could be known that this place was called the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom, and it was controlled by Mahayana Buddhism.


    This Bodhi tree must be the means of Mahayana Buddhism. Otherwise, why would there be such a Bodhi tree in this desert?


    As he approached the Bodhi Tree, the Bodhi tree actually began to shake continuously. The branches and leaves collided with each other, making a crisp sound.


    Then, a Bodhi fruit fell from the tree.


    Zhou Feng subconsciously caught the fruit.


    This Bodhi fruit gave people a warm and smooth feeling. There was actually a thin Buddha carved on it.


    Suddenly, Buddhist light surged, and countless Buddhist voices began to pour into his mind.


    ¡°The Buddha¡¯s inheritance? The seed of Buddha?¡±


    Zhou Feng rejected this so-called Buddha¡¯s inheritance. The Bodhi fruit in his hand immediately lost its luster and became dry and cracked.


    It turned out that this Bodhi tree was the tree of inheritance.


    As long as one entered the Supreme Buddha Kingdom, one would have the chance to encounter such a tree of inheritance and obtain the Buddha¡¯s inheritance from it.


    Moreover, one could reject the Buddha¡¯s inheritance or accept it completely.


    Just like the saying, ¡°If one is fated to be Buddha, one can obtain any Buddhist inheritance as long as one is fated.¡±.


    There was also a chance for one of the eight supreme divine abilities. All of these were related to the word ¡®fate¡¯.


    ¡°I am fated to be Buddha?¡±


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows and raised his head to take a look. He discovered that countless Bodhi fruits were hanging on this Bodhi tree.


    He absolutely did not believe that he was not fated with Buddha.


    Not long ago, he had killed a divine beast of the Buddhist sect.


    A gentle breeze blew past, and the Bodhi tree branches in front of him collided with each other again.


    There was nothing unusual except for the gentle Buddhist light as usual.


    ¡°I¡¯d like to see if this Buddha¡¯s inheritance is powerful.¡±


    Zhou Feng did not reject the Buddha¡¯s inheritance anymore.


    Immediately, the somewhat cracked Bodhi fruit in his hand began to emit light.


    ¡®Evil Suppression!? This is actually the Evil Suppression Ability?¡¯


    Wasn¡¯t this the incomplete divine ability he had obtained from Bai Xiang? Why was it giving him a complete version now?


    Other than that, various Buddhist doctrines began to be indoctrinated into his mind.


    Countless Zen chants enveloped him, various Buddhist scriptures surged out, and boundless golden light emerged from the ground.


    The affirmation almost converted him to his original position.


    To Zhou Feng, the sounds of joining Buddhism kept ringing in his ears.


    This kind of sound was not violent, and it was difficult to shake his mind.


    In fact, when he felt bored, the sound would automatically disappear.


    And once the boredom disappeared, the sound would reappear.


    ¡°I knew it¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned slightly.


    As expected, there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If one wanted something, one had to pay a price.


    However, he felt that the voice would slowly disappear with the passage of time.


    In other words, he only needed to wait for some period before the price of accepting the Buddha¡¯s inheritance would slowly disappear.


    However, at this moment, another Bodhi fruit fell.


    In addition, this Bodhi fruit was even fuller than the previous one. The Buddha engraved on it was holding a vajra pestle in his hand.


    ¡°Are they so obvious with the lure of the fish?¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t believe the Bodhi tree¡¯s intention to bait and fish was so obvious.


    He had just obtained the inheritance from one Bodhi fruit, and now another Bodhi fruit fell from it.

 Chapter 650

    ?


    Chapter 650: The Demeanor of an Expert?


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhou Feng did not know what to do at the moment because the smell of the lure was too strong. If he were to sink into it, it would be very easy for him to sink deeper and deeper.


    But he was also very covetous of those divine abilities, especially that unique Buddhist doctrine. It was a completely new type of knowledge that could enrich his original knowledge.


    After receiving that special Buddhist doctrine, the AI began to analyze and fuse it continuously.


    Originally, all kinds of deductions had already reached their limits. Take for example the Ascendance technique that he had always desired to perfect. The deduction speed had now increased.


    Was this perhaps understanding by analogy?


    The new cultivation knowledge made his progress even faster.


    If he wanted to create a cultivation technique that completely belonged to him, he needed hundreds of scriptures as reference materials and countless cultivation techniques as nourishment.


    Then wouldn¡¯t the Bodhi tree in front of him be the best nourishment?


    Each Bodhi fruit contained a trace of Buddhist doctrine and divine ability inheritance.


    Even though it contained a trace of Enlightenment Buddhist Light.


    ¡®As long as I avoid the Enlightenment Buddhist Light, it shouldn¡¯t be difficult to break through to the Ascendance realm.¡¯


    Thinking of this, Zhou Feng directly took out the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    The moment the dilapidated-looking Emperor Coiling Cauldron appeared, an overbearing power overshadowed the Buddhist light that filled the sky.


    The Bodhi tree that was originally shining was suppressed by this aura and did not dare to move.


    ¡°What¡¯s going on?¡±


    Such a scene was something Zhou Feng had not expected.


    Ever since he entered the Central Plains, the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had become even more mystical.


    Now, it was actually suppressing the Bodhi tree in front of him. Even the fist marks he had left on it had become lighter.


    This gave him a feeling that it was slowly recovering.


    ¡°Perfect!¡±


    Seeing that the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was suppressing the Bodhi tree, Zhou Feng¡¯s eyes immediately lit up.


    He clenched his fist, and a violent force exploded from his body.


    He smashed his fist onto the Bodhi tree in front of him.


    The Buddhist light exploded, and the sound of chanting became hurried.


    However, in contrast, the power of the Emperor Coiling Cauldron became more and more intense.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron also drew out the spiritual power in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    This was also the first time the Emperor Coiling Cauldron had borrowed the spiritual power in his body. It was obvious that the Emperor Coiling Cauldron alone was not enough to suppress the Bodhi tree.


    ¡°Not bad!¡±


    Seeing that the Bodhi tree did not have the ability to resist, Zhou Feng became more and more unscrupulous.


    In any case, he had offended the so-called Mahayana Buddhism a long time ago. The enmity had already been formed, and it was not so easy to resolve it.


    Moreover, the Bodhi tree also wanted to convert him.


    It was a good idea to cook the Bodhi tree. 1


    The Bodhi tree could also be considered a spirit root-type tree. He did not know how it would taste.


    That¡¯s right! He planned to cook the Bodhi tree and eat it!


    With the passive Taotie Instinct, doing so should be the best option.


    He was really afraid of being tricked and becoming a Buddha after directly absorbing the Buddhist inheritance from the Bodhi tree.


    After thinking about it, it was best to cook it and eat it.


    The passive Taotie Instinct allowed Zhou Feng to possess part of the Taotie¡¯s ability.


    And the most terrifying power of an ancient divine beast like the Taotie was its ability to devour and digest. No matter what it was, as long as it entered the stomach, it would be able to be completely digested.


    No matter whether you poisoned it or used underhanded tricks, all your schemes would be useless once they entered the stomach.


    ¡°Eat!¡±


    After saying that, he punched the Bodhi tree in front of him again.


    Numerous Bodhi fruits fell down and were then collected into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    He was not satisfied with this and used endless brute force to pull up the Bodhi tree by its roots.


    Then, he broke apart a few pieces and placed them all into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Meanwhile, the Emperor Coiling Cauldron was getting more and more excited. It began to tremble crazily.


    ¡°Benefactor! You¡¯ve gone too far¡­¡±


    Suddenly, an old monk slowly appeared.


    This old monk was practically skin and bones. However, his eyes were bright and clear. There was even a wheel of merit behind him.


    ¡°There really is someone here!¡±


    Zhou Feng was not too surprised when he saw the emaciated old monk. After all, he had already uprooted the Bodhi tree.


    It would be strange if no one appeared.


    However, the old monk seemed to be only an illusion, not a physical body. That emaciated body was completely formed from Buddhist light.


    It was also because of this that Zhou Feng did not intend to stop. He continued to dismantle the lush Bodhi tree in front of him completely. He did not even let go of the roots underground.


    He placed everything into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron displayed a special spatial ability. It clearly looked so small, yet it stored the entire Bodhi tree inside.


    When the old monk saw that Zhou Feng did not pay attention to him, he did not get angry.


    ¡°What do you want to do, Benefactor?¡±


    That calm tone was like a slow stream flowing through Zhou Feng¡¯s heart.


    ¡°Eat!¡± he answered subconsciously.


    ¡°Oh? Eat the Bodhi tree? Then it should be a perfect match with the Water of Will in the ancient well next to it.¡±


    After hearing his answer, the old monk even gave a suggestion.


    The water in the ancient well next to him was the Water of Will that was gathered from one¡¯s willpower.


    It had the effect of awakening the spirit. It was specially made for people destined to pass by to drink with the Bodhi fruit.


    ¡°Water of Will?¡±


    When Zhou Feng heard this, he couldn¡¯t help but feel a little curious.


    ¡®What¡¯s going on with this old monk? Not only did he not stop me, but he even gave a suggestion?


    ¡®Didn¡¯t I just uproot this Bodhi tree?¡¯


    ¡°Thank you!¡± Zhou Feng casually replied and then placed some Water of Will into the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    The Emperor Coiling Cauldron also began to refine the Bodhi tree and the Water of Will, just like before when it refined the white elephant meat.


    That inexplicable medicinal fragrance once again appeared.


    ¡°Strange¡­ Dao Bone Demon Heart¡­ There is actually such a physique in this world¡­¡±


    Seeing that Zhou Feng did not speak, the old monk also began to speak on his own.


    As he spoke, the suppressed Buddhist light appeared once again, and all kinds of golden lotuses bloomed on the ground.


    Chanting sounds echoed as well.


    ¡°Scram!¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s expression did not change. He mobilized all his strength and threw a punch without caring about anything else.


    In an instant, the entire world seemed to have collapsed.


    This punch of his gathered all of the cultivation insights he had gained over a long period of time: the Physical Dao, the Dao of Longevity, and the limits of the body and soul.


    Ever since he had continuously used the Ascendance technique to separate the body and soul, Zhou Feng had gained a further understanding of his own divine abilities.


    Previously, he had used all sorts of fancy divine abilities, but it was better to simplify them and combine all of his insights into one punch.


    There should only be one outcome with one punch-death!


    According to the usual practice, he would not injure his opponent when he threw out a punch. Instead, he would suffer a huge backlash first.


    However, the old monk was instantly annihilated.


    ¡°B*stard! You¡¯re courting death! I¡¯ve really given you face!¡±


    A second later, the old monk¡¯s voice came from afar.


    The image of the refined expert he had created earlier instantly crumbled. From the tone of his voice, one could feel the intense emotions of exasperation.

    Chapter 651: One Mind of Buddha and Devil


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Old Monk Bodhi appeared again. His face was no longer as calm as an ancient well but rather a bit mad and manic.


    He was obviously extremely dissatisfied with Zhou Feng.


    ¡®What is this person thinking? Why is there no logic to his actions?


    ¡®This kind of person could cultivate to such a level? And he could also enter the Central Plains!?¡¯


    Old Monk Bodhi found it hard to believe that a cultivator who could cultivate to almost the Ascendance realm would be so stupid.


    In an unfamiliar place, in someone else¡¯s territory, he acted rashly without the slightest hint of caution.


    ¡®He uprooted the Bodhi tree shrouded in Buddhist light just like that!? Is there something wrong with his brain!?¡¯


    Did Zhou Feng not know that doing so would easily cause trouble, especially in a place like the Central Plains?


    Furthermore, Zhou Feng had attacked him without hesitation just now.


    Old Monk Bodhi had already confirmed that the person in front of him was brainless, which was why he was so flustered and exasperated.


    What he had done just now was equivalent to winking at a blind man.


    As Old Monk Bodhi¡¯s emotions changed, the Buddhist light surrounding his body also changed.


    The gentle Buddhist light almost turned into Devil Qi, intending to devour everything.


    But soon, the Devil Qi was suppressed.


    Old Monk Bodhi wore a serene and kind expression again.


    ¡°Amitabha, this penniless monk was rude! I have offended this Benefactor with my evil mouth¡­¡±


    The manic expression from before formed a sharp contrast with the kind expression on his face now.


    ¡®This old monk¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng did not say a word. He just scooped up the Bodhi tree trunk from the Emperor Coiling Cauldron and stuffed it into his mouth.


    It was not tasty and had a bitter taste.


    This broken Bodhi tree was obviously not a delicious thing. It was far inferior to the white elephant from before.


    However, it could be devoured after being cooked in the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    Soon, golden energy began to heal Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body.


    Under this peaceful energy, the Spiritual Veins sealed in Zhou Feng¡¯s body actually began to¡­ fuse together!?


    The different Spiritual Veins all had their own unique seals and auras. These Spiritual Veins were sealed in his apertures in a special way.


    Normally, these Spiritual Veins were constantly fighting with each other.


    However, under this golden energy, the auras of these Spiritual Veins actually began to fuse with each other.


    ¡°This is¡­ the Buddhist Enlightenment Technique?¡±


    The most famous Buddhist technique should be the Enlightenment Technique.


    This Enlightenment Technique was something that almost all cultivators had heard of.


    In the Buddhist system, the Buddhist Dharma represented the supreme wisdom of the Buddha. Once one comprehended even a tiny bit of it, they would be able to attain enlightenment in a single day.


    It was common for one¡¯s cultivation base to rise crazily.


    Therefore, countless cultivators wanted to pry into the so-called wisdom, but this action instantly caused them to fall into the exquisite Buddhist Dharma.


    At this time, there was no need for the Buddhist Sect to ask you to convert. You would convert yourself and become a Buddhist.


    Right now, Zhou Feng felt countless profound meanings of the Buddhist Dharma surging into his mind, and they were even more intense than before.


    ¡°Amitabha Buddha!¡±


    Old Monk Bodhi, who had regained his calm, could not help but put his palms together when he saw this and made a Buddhist proclamation.


    ¡°Scram!¡±


    A trace of impatience appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    He no longer suppressed the killing intent in his heart, and that pure power erupted with the most terrifying momentum.


    His black hair danced wildly, and along with the erupting ferocity, Zhou Feng threw a punch at Old Monk Bodhi.


    Old Monk Bodhi was shattered once again. The passive Taotie Instinct also began to take effect, completely devouring the golden energy in his body.


    Moreover, he would not rest until he completely destroyed this oasis.


    An unrivaled power almost shattered the ley lines here.


    Originally, Zhou Feng wanted to see what Old Monk Bodhi was going to do. He actually allowed him to destroy the Bodhi tree without any reaction.


    But now, it seemed that there was no need for that. He could just be reckless and get it over with.


    ¡°I told you! We must be direct when dealing with this kind of b*stard.


    ¡°Moreover, there is the aura of the Buddha-Protecting Divine elephant on his body¡­ ¡±


    The incarnation of Old Monk Bodhi Puti shattered again. He quickly appeared again-this time, it was his physical body.


    His body was shriveled, his hands were like a skeleton¡¯s, and his face was covered with purple marks.


    The most soul-stirring thing was his pair of eyes that seemed to be able to pierce through people¡¯s hearts.


    Billowing Devil Qi blotted out the sky and the sun. His previously peaceful aura had turned into a boundless rain of blood. Black lotus flowers appeared out of thin air.


    ¡®One body of Buddha and Devil? Two personalities?¡¯


    Seeing this, Zhou Feng instantly understood why Old Monk Bodhi was acting so strangely.


    It was because he had two personalities-one was a Buddhist and the other a Devil cultivator.


    He had heard that some of the powerful Buddhist figures had a profound understanding of Buddhism because they had cultivated it to the extreme.


    However, these powerful Buddhist figures soon realized that Buddhism was not a supreme collection of wisdom. Sometimes, it was impossible to explain it with Buddhism.


    For example, the so-called Buddhism was nothing in front of Human Emperor Pan, who had been at his peak for a while and conquered the world back then. With just his peerless body, he had shattered countless golden bodies of the ancient Buddhas.


    Therefore, some of the powerful Buddhists began to think about how to complete the Dharma.


    That¡¯s right! For these powerful Buddhists, it was not that they could not defeat Human Emperor Pan, but that the Dharma was not complete.


    The Dharma was incomplete. As long as the incomplete part was completed, it could illuminate everything and enlighten everyone.


    With this thought, the Buddhas, who were in a terrible state of mind, began to have inner demons.


    Could you imagine it? The ancient Buddhas¡¯ states of mind were almost unbreakable, and they had even gotten rid of the seven emotions and six desires.


    Under such a state of mind, they actually had inner demons.


    The final result was the birth of the Devil Buddhas. Cultivating the Buddha meant cultivating the Devil, and the Buddha and the Devil were united.


    This was what Zhou Feng knew. He had collected this information from the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace.


    It was thanks to the accumulated knowledge of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace. Otherwise, he would have been confused.


    ¡°No! What you¡¯re thinking is not right. The Devil is not an inner demon but a part of the Dharma.¡±


    Old Monk Bodhi¡¯s eyes flashed with divine light. The two beams of divine light were like two corporeal beams of light.


    Zhou Feng was shocked. How did Old Monk Bodhi know what he was thinking?


    ¡°The Devil is a part of the Buddha. It is wrong to rely on one¡¯s own thoughts to sever evil and cultivate good.


    ¡°What is good? What is evil? This is impossible to define. It is a delusion in itself.


    ¡°All these years, all the Buddhists have been wrong. It is only now that we Buddhists have been able to set things right¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Old Monk Bodhi started preaching on the spot. From the beginning, he had broken the evil and cultivated the good step by step to perfect his virtue, and then he had to distinguish between good and evil.


    The whole world began to surge, and Buddhist light and Devil Qi interweaved.


    Zhou Feng suddenly felt that he was imprisoned.


    ¡°The realm above the Ascendance realm!?¡±


    This was the power above the Ascendance realm!

    Chapter 652: Pure Battle


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Old Monk Bodhi started preaching on the spot, intending to convert Zhou Feng again.


    The person in front of him was not bad in terms of aptitude. At the same time, he had great luck and was fated with Buddhism.


    Most importantly, Zhou Feng was not born in the Central Plains but came from outside.


    This was undoubtedly the most suitable target for conversion.


    To be honest, if it were not for the pressure the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom had been under recently, Old Monk Bodhi would not have wanted to convert him by force.


    The risk of converting one by force was too great.


    However, Zhou Feng was not tactful at all. His tactful method was not good, so he could only use force.


    A person who had not even reached the Ascendance realm had no way to resist his conversion method.


    One had to know that he was at the Rebirth realm, which was two realms higher than Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Zhou Feng felt his entire body being suppressed by waves of Buddhist light, and the Blood Qi in his body began to surge.


    The divine light in his eyes burned, and holes appeared on his solid body. The irreversible power was like a dimension-reducing blow, trying to forcibly turn him around.


    Under such a crisis, the Spiritual Veins in Zhou Feng¡¯s body instantly erupted with astonishing power.


    Under tremendous pressure, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body and soul transformed faster.


    In fact, after trying to break through to the Ascendance realm many times, he had long stepped into the Ascendance realm with one foot.


    Previously, he had not broken through because he lacked a good opportunity.


    Now was obviously an excellent opportunity.


    The Buddhist light and Devil Qi crazily eroded his physical body and soul. Such tremendous pressure forced his physical body and soul to begin to transform.


    ¡°Break!¡± Zhou Feng roared furiously.


    His black hair danced wildly, and terrifying Spiritual Qi fluctuations stirred up the wind and clouds.


    ¡°He actually broke through directly? This is¡­ longevity substances? There¡¯s actually such a stupid person?¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s sudden breakthrough slightly shocked Old Monk Bodhi.


    To be able to break through under such high pressure, no matter what, he was still extremely talented.


    But soon, Old Monk Bodhi saw through his background.


    Previously, he still couldn¡¯t see through Zhou Feng¡¯s background under all kinds of concealment measures.


    After all, Zhou Feng¡¯s aura could be considered messy. The rich Blood Qi and various kinds of auras mixed together, which was very confusing.


    Now, Old Monk Bodhi finally saw it clearly.


    ¡®This person actually pursues the Dao of Longevity and even has the shadow of Heavenly Venerate Longevity. This is simply the stupidest path!¡¯


    Not many prodigies would choose the Dao of Longevity, even in the Central Plains.


    If the Dao of Longevity was a successful path, would there be so many old monsters in the Central Plains pursuing immortality?


    After the Ascendance realm was the Rebirth realm-this was not the immortal realm.


    The so-called Rebirth realm only allowed one to have the qualifications to touch the immortal realm, this was another brand new threshold.


    And in order to break through the path to become immortal, the entire Central Plains had become crazy.


    Endless Gu raising and endless killing were the Central Plains¡¯ bread and butter.


    All of this was to create more prodigies and then let them fight each other. In this process, they would tread a path to become immortal.


    Because of this, no force could peacefully lie down in the Central Plains.


    The Mahayana Buddhism that Old Monk Bodhi belonged to was facing the persecution of several ancient human factions.


    Therefore, they urgently needed a new prodigy to prove the Mahayana Buddhism¡¯s ability to nurture prodigies.


    In the eyes of Old Monk Bodhi, Zhou Feng was undoubtedly an excellent embryo.


    However, this embryo had gone down the wrong path, and it was just right for him to correct it.


    A red chain pierced straight into Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    This chain began to tremble rapidly as if it could not withstand the power in Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    In the next second, this red chain was directly pulled out of Zhou Feng¡¯s body.


    Zhou Feng, who had just broken through to the Ascendance realm, felt that the power in his control had become even greater.


    His body and soul carried a hint of immortality. It was as if he was one step closer to the path of immortality.


    ¡°Ascendance realm¡­¡±


    However, he showed a displeased expression toward this because this was not what he wanted. He was forced to break through to the Ascendance realm, but he was not prepared at all.


    His body had not completely transformed, shedding the mortal coil.


    Once he broke through to the Ascendance realm, it was impossible for him to retreat. The Ascendance method was no longer useful to him.


    Zhou Feng was in a bad mood, causing him to become irritable.


    His gaze became terrifying as he stared fixedly at Old Monk Bodhi.


    ¡°Hmm? You didn¡¯t successfully convert him?¡±


    Seeing Zhou Feng¡¯s gaze, Old Monk Bodhi didn¡¯t continue to maintain his half-Buddha and half-Devil state.


    Continuing to entangle here was simply a waste of time.


    It was also time to end all of this. Regardless of whether it was comprehending the Buddha Dharma or the Devil Dogma, it was better than wasting time here.


    Therefore, Old Monk Bodhi completely suppressed his Buddhist nature and allowed the beast nature in his heart to be fully released.


    An inhuman cry came out from Old Monk Bodhi¡¯s throat.


    The rationality in his eyes completely disappeared and turned into the eyes of a wild beast.


    It was as if he treated Zhou Feng as a wild beast and wanted to swallow Zhou Feng.


    ¡°Fight head-on?¡±


    Not only was Zhou Feng not scared by Old Monk Bodhi¡¯s attitude, but he also became excited instead.


    Compared to facing the Enlightenment Technique, he wanted to have a head-on battle.


    The invisible Enlightenment Technique was a bit unpredictable. If he had not swallowed the Bodhi tree and triggered the passive Taotie Instinct, he would not have been able to resist it.


    After gaining resistance to Buddhism, Zhou Feng could not be forcefully converted.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    At that moment, Old Monk Bodhi seemed to be the opposite of a human. His posture was like a wild beast. He directly bent his body and let out a weird roar from his throat.


    With such a strange appearance, the surroundings instantly became filled with wails of ghosts and gods. It was a bloody storm, and countless floating corpses appeared.


    ¡°Come!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not want to be outdone and went up to meet him.


    The two strong bodies collided with each other.


    In an instant, Zhou Feng was directly sent flying. There was a clear difference in strength between the two sides.


    Moreover, Old Monk Bodhi did not give up. He directly chased up and bit Zhou Feng¡¯s arm.


    That crazy state was simply terrifying.


    ¡°You bite? I¡¯ll bite too!¡±


    Zhou Feng did not give in too much, either. He had a crazy look on his face as he bit on old Monk Bodhi¡¯s head.


    A fierce battle began.


    Even though Zhou Feng was at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength, he could barely hold on under all kinds of passive skills.


    ¡°Die!¡±


    Old Monk Bodhi went crazy and broke Zhou Feng¡¯s spine in an instant. His legs were smashed into meat paste.


    However, Zhou Feng did not utter a word. He gnashed his teeth and punched Old Monk Bodhi¡¯s head.


    Such a simple and violent attack contained a power that could destroy the world.


    Fortunately, there was yellow sand all around. If this was any other place, it would definitely be reduced to ruins.


    In this extreme battle, Zhou Feng discovered that all kinds of divine abilities were useless-only the purest form of power was the most effective against this opponent.


    Calculation? Prediction? These things were useless.


    Only the purest form of violence was effective against violence.

    Chapter 653: The Central Plains¡¯ Mad Modus Operandi


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This battle had suddenly turned into a slugfest.


    Obviously, it didn¡¯t conform to the style of cultivators. Generally speaking, as one¡¯s realm increased, the battle between cultivators would become more and more inclined towards the collision between divine abilities and treasures.


    It was rare to see such a situation where one fought purely with one¡¯s physical body.


    Most of the time, one would use great divine abilities and treasures as a means of killing.


    When the two bodies collided, the sun and moon in the sky seemed to be shaken.


    Old Monk Bodhi once again gained the upper hand because he had the advantage in terms of cultivation level.


    In the Rebirth realm, one had already condensed an immortal foundation and was able to bear the laws of the great Dao.


    Although Old Monk Bodhi had been using his body to fight, in reality, his every move carried the laws of the great Dao.


    Zhou Feng was smashed to the ground.


    However, the seemingly serious injury recovered rapidly.


    His body had clearly turned into a pile of meat paste just now, but now it seemed like nothing had happened.


    The expression of Old Monk Bodhi, whose entire body was filled with Devil Qi, did not change.


    He was very familiar with people who cultivated the Dao of Longevity.


    They were basically cockroaches that could not be squashed to death. Since the person in front of him had outstanding talent and was able to comprehend the Dao of Longevity on his own, he would not die so easily.


    Moreover, Old Monk Bodhi was planning to convert Zhou Feng, so Old Monk Bodhi was not flustered at all.


    The Devil Qi in his entire body slowly disappeared, and he returned to his original kind-looking appearance.


    ¡°Amitabha!¡±


    Old Monk Bodhi chanted a Buddhist mantra upon saying that, and Buddhist light surged out.


    A seven-colored glazed bowl covered Zhou Feng.


    Zhou Feng, who had originally planned to lie still, saw that this old bald donkey actually dared to trap him.


    As such, he took out the Emperor Coiling Cauldron.


    ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it!¡± Zhou Feng roared and activated all the power in his body.


    As mentioned earlier, ever since he obtained the Ascendance technique, he was not very satisfied with the various divine abilities he had learned previously.


    This was because the divine abilities he had learned previously were basically all completed by himself. Although their power was not weak, they still gave him the feeling they were not powerful enough.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng gave up most of his divine abilities and only kept the Longevity Steps and the Longevity Punch.


    These two moves were inherited from Heavenly Venerate Longevity and were then simply modified.


    He threw out a punch!


    His physical body seemed to have exploded. Endless power was gathered in one place and then directly released.


    The Longevity Steps and the Longevity Fist were both designed to hurt others after hurting oneself first.


    In order to release the most powerful attack, Zhou Feng chose to harm his own body as the price.


    An ordinary person would die after using it once and ascend to heaven after using it twice.


    If one¡¯s lifeforce was not tenacious enough, using these two divine abilities would be courting death.


    A thunderous sound exploded, and a hole was instantly opened in the seven-colored glazed bowl.


    The remaining power of this punch even charged straight at Old Man Bodhi.


    ¡°How is this possible!?¡±


    Old Man Bodhi was slightly shocked.


    The Buddhist light enveloped the golden lotus and blocked the remaining power of the punch.


    ¡®Such power? Is this still the power that could be unleashed by someone in the Ascendance realm?¡¯


    The seven-colored glazed bowl was a genuine acquired Dharma treasure. How could it be broken by bare hands!?


    At that moment, Old Man Bodhi made a mistake in his judgment of Zhou Feng.


    ¡®This kid¡­ Could he be¡­¡¯


    At the thought of this, Old Man Bodhi completely sealed his devilish nature to prevent him from doing something strange like what he did earlier.


    At that moment, Old Man Bodhi thought of the reincarnation of the legendary Buddha.


    In the current Mahayana Buddhism, the position of the high and mighty Buddha had always been vacant.


    For many years, there had been rumors of the reincarnation of the Buddha in Mahayana Buddhism.


    It was said that the reincarnation of the Buddha would come back in a special way one day, and he would lead Mahayana Buddhism back to the Central Plains¡¯ center.


    Finally, they would ascend and enter the legendary immortal world.


    There was only one point in the description of the reincarnation of the Buddha, which was that he could display strength far beyond his own realm.


    The Zhou Feng in front of him seemed to fit the description perfectly.


    When he thought of this, the expression in Old Man Bodhi¡¯s eyes changed.


    As for Zhou Feng, he was lying in the yellow sand.


    ¡°So tired¡­¡±


    After that punch, Zhou Feng¡¯s physical body was undoubtedly heavily injured.


    Thus, he lay on the ground and slowly recovered from his injuries.


    Although he was in the midst of battle, he lay on the ground just like that.


    He wasn¡¯t worried about his own because he was extremely confident in his life-saving ability. Although the old bald donkey opposite him was powerful, it was impossible to kill him.


    Therefore, Zhou Feng directly lay down.


    The passive Tenacious Heart, Blood Recovery, and other passive skills were triggered.


    ¡®Eh? He didn¡¯t make a move?¡¯


    After waiting for a long time, a trace of doubt appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s face.


    ¡®Where is that old bald donkey? Why didn¡¯t he seize the opportunity to attack me?


    ¡®That old bald donkey had a fierce look on his face as if he wanted to swallow me alive earlier.


    ¡®Why did he suddenly become so quiet?¡¯


    ¡°As expected of the reincarnation of Buddha, his injuries are recovering so quickly! Even if he cultivates the Dao of Longevity, this recovery speed is too exaggerated¡­¡±


    Old Monk Bodhi stood by the side with a kind look on his face, and a strange satisfied smile appeared on his face.


    He clearly looked so kind, but that smile gave people a chill behind their backs.


    Zhou Feng also noticed this.


    Doubt and puzzlement surged into his heart.


    ¡®The reincarnation of Buddha? Is he talking about me?¡¯


    How did he become the reincarnation of Buddha all of a sudden?


    ¡°That¡¯s right! You are the reincarnation of Buddha. All of this is fate¡­¡±


    Old Monk Bodhi lowered his head and began to recite the scriptures.


    A halo of Buddhist light slowly rose. The moment the Buddhist light illuminated Zhou Feng, a large amount of information was poured into his mind.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng learned a lot of things.


    ¡®Central Plains¡­ Have they gone mad? Mahayana Buddhism¡­¡¯


    The first thing that appeared in his mind was the general situation of the Central Plains.


    Now, the Central Plains had turned into a Gu breeding field. An obsession would contaminate anyone who entered the Central Plains.


    As long as this obsession contaminated them, all cultivators would gradually be driven by said obsession.


    Any goal would become a breakthrough until they entered the immortal world.


    Simply put, as long as this obsession contaminated you, your goal in this life would be to become immortal.


    You would become crazier and crazier, and you would even give up your principles and beliefs.


    Then, how crazy you would become under the influence of this obsession, you could totally refer to Mahayana Buddhism.


    Because the monks of Mahayana Buddhism had not broken through for a long time, there were eventually monks and demonic practitioners who practiced together.


    Then, it created the current Mahayana Buddhism. In the morning, one might be a Buddha who helped the world and saved the people, but at night, one would be a devil who massacred all living beings.


    The scariest thing was that this obsession was man-made.


    Moreover, it did not conceal anything at all, directly allowing this obsession to spread in the Central Plains.


    All of this was to select the most outstanding darlings of the heavens.


    As long as you were strong enough, then you could not be affected by this obsession. This was a reverse screening.


    This was open and aboveboard exploitation. The weak would not have the chance to enjoy the many resources of the Central Plains.


    Those who had fallen into madness should properly provide labor and serve the true elites!


    Subconsciously, Zhou Feng looked at Old Man Bodhi.


    Old Man Bodhi pressed his palms together and said calmly, ¡°That¡¯s right! That obsession has already contaminated this penniless monk.¡±


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt a chill down his spine.


    ¡®The so-called Central Plains¡­ has already become like this?¡¯

    Chapter 654: The Terrifying Truth


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Old Monk Bodhi calmly revealed that that obsession had corrupted him, Zhou Feng¡¯s frown deepened.


    ¡°From now on, you are the 98th son of Buddha!¡±


    As he spoke, Old Monk Bodhi¡¯s entire body began to disintegrate.


    First, from the center of his brows, countless strands of essence and Blood Qi began to leak out.


    The skin and flesh separated, and the golden flesh and blood sparkled under the sunlight.


    The Blood Qi, the Buddhist light, and the divine soul all turned into a Buddhist seal.


    This Buddhist seal was overflowing with divine light, and multicolored rays of light shone out.


    Zhou Feng simply did not have the chance to refuse, so the Buddhist seal was imprinted on his forehead.


    All of this happened very suddenly.


    Old Monk Bodhi suddenly went crazy and directly ended his own life.


    ¡°The 98th son of Buddha? In other words, there are 97 sons of Buddha in front of me?¡±


    This outcome greatly exceeded his expectations.


    Moreover, it wasn¡¯t over yet. The Buddhist seal on his head began to play its role.


    Because this Buddhist seal was formed from the essence, Qi, and spirit of Old Monk Bodhi, it naturally included the inheritance of Old Monk Bodhi.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng felt a terrifying surge of essence. Light overflowed in all directions for a moment, and surging power continuously leaked out.


    Along with it were all sorts of Buddhist scriptures and divine abilities.


    And all of these had no side effects. It was as if he had suddenly received the Buddha¡¯s enlightenment, and his strength began to soar wildly.


    Under the support of endless essence, all the Spiritual Veins in his body were subdued.


    The problem that had been troubling Zhou Feng was solved in an instant.


    These Spiritual Veins began to connect with each other, and then they were completely refined by him.


    The surging power continued to roil in Zhou Feng¡¯s body, and every inch of his flesh and blood was perfectly tempered.


    The spiritual power transformation of the three changes of the Ascendance realm was completed in an instant.


    One needed to undergo another three transformations to break past the Ascendance realm.


    Under normal circumstances, it would be called the Three Transformations of the Ascendance. In essence, it was no different from the previous cultivation realm.


    It was the transformation of the essence, Qi, and spirit.


    The first transformation was the transformation of the spiritual power in the body, transforming it into an existence close to immortal power.


    The second transformation was the transformation of the body, approaching the immortal body again.


    The last transformation was the transformation of his soul.


    With these three transformations, he could try to break through to the Rebirth realm and condense an immortal foundation.


    This information was recorded in the Buddhist seal inheritance.


    ¡°What the hell is this¡­¡±


    This inexplicable pie that fell from the sky made Zhou Feng feel that it was somewhat unreal.


    He suddenly broke through to the Ascendance realm, obtained the Buddhist inheritance, and finally completed the first step of the Three Transformations of the Ascendance.


    No matter how he looked at it, it didn¡¯t seem right.


    In the past, he had put in a lot of effort and risked his life to obtain so many benefits.


    How could it be so easy now?


    How could such a good thing as a pie falling from the sky fall onto his head? Why didn¡¯t he believe it?


    Zhou Feng subconsciously used Hexadirectional Calculation to predict good and bad luck.


    Although Hexadirectional Calculation was already somewhat outdated, and the accuracy became lower and lower as his cultivation increased, it was still somewhat useful, especially with the support of the AI.


    ¡°Fierce! Very fierce! Very fierce!¡±


    After three consecutive tests, the final result was actually fierce.


    The continuous signs of great danger made Zhou Feng¡¯s mood not that wonderful.


    ¡°I knew it!¡±


    As expected, when that old monk suddenly ended his own life, he had no good intentions at all.


    One had to pay a corresponding price in order to receive any kind of gift.


    ¡°I have to figure out what exactly is going on.¡±


    Zhou Feng clenched his fist slightly, and his physical body immediately erupted with surging divine power, sweeping across the surroundings with violent force.


    Too powerful! After refining the Spiritual Vein in his body, his physical body had already reached an exaggerated level.


    Even though he was just lying on the ground, his physical body was surrounded by rays of multicolored light.


    If he wanted to figure out what was going on, he had to rely on the Buddhist seal on his forehead.


    Zhou Feng could clearly feel that countless inheritances were waiting for him in the Buddhist seal on his forehead.


    He only needed to use a thought to carry out a powerful baptism.


    This Buddhist seal was even quite intelligent. If you thought of a divine ability, it would give you the corresponding information.


    With such a terrifying Buddhist seal inheritance, even an ordinary person could become a peerless genius as long as one obtained it.


    ¡°Calm down! There must be a price for this.¡±


    Zhou Feng suppressed the thoughts in his heart and began to think about how to separate this Buddhist seal.


    He had just received such a huge power boost and inheritance, so this Buddhist seal became even closer to him.


    If he continued to receive the gift of the Buddhist seal, then he would very likely be tied to death in the end.


    ¡°I can¡¯t continue lying down.¡±


    In order to get rid of the Buddhist seal on his head, he planned to take action and find more people to understand the situation.


    The Central Plains was so big, so there must be someone who knew what was going on.


    ¡­


    Zhou Feng began to walk in the barren desert.


    He met almost no one on the way, but he met several Bodhi trees like the one from before.


    Other than that, there were also some Dharma treasures that were abandoned in the yellow sand.


    That¡¯s right! You didn¡¯t misread! A few Dharma treasures were directly abandoned on the ground.


    And these acquired Dharma treasures all contained some Buddhist legacies.


    Then there were some monks who were already obsessed.


    When these obsessed monks met him, they basically went crazy and said that he was the reincarnation of Buddha.


    They wanted to pass on their cultivation to him.


    After Zhou Feng spent a lot of effort restraining a monk, he finally got the crucial information from him.


    It turned out that there were countless inheritances in this Supreme Buddhist Kingdom.


    As long as you wanted, you could easily obtain a large number of inheritances.


    But all of this came at a price. Behind every inheritance was a Supreme Buddha.


    If you accepted the inheritance of this Supreme Buddha, it meant that there was karma between the two of you.


    By relying on this karma, after you cultivated to a certain level in the future, you would need to repay it.


    Because in order to break through to the immortal realm, there was an extremely important condition, and that was to cut off all karma.


    Do you remember what was said earlier, that a crazy obsession had already contaminated the Central Plains?


    Under the influence of this obsession, all the monstrous geniuses in the Central Plains would constantly be sucked in.


    Eventually, a true immortal would be born with the passage of time.


    And at this time, the Dao, Buddha, and Devil hidden behind the scenes would take back the karma.


    That¡¯s right! The Central Plains was indeed a paradise for all cultivators.


    There were inheritances, heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and even all kinds of artificial special terrains.


    As long as you wanted it, the black hands behind your back would create it for you. All of this was just an investment.


    These black hands only wanted a monster who could lead them to break into the immortal realm.


    And this was also why the Central Plains was polluted by that crazy obsession and why there were inheritances, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures everywhere.


    What was even more terrifying was that even the surrounding Spiritual Qi was tied to karma.


    All the cultivators who cultivated in the Central Plains, the longer they stayed here, the more they would be entangled by karma.

    Chapter 655: Not Enough Children of Destiny


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    That¡¯s right! At present, Central Plains had completely turned into a Gu breeding ground, with countless bigshots behind it.


    They were just waiting for a truly exceptional genius to be born, leading everyone to break through to the immortal realm.


    And when Old Monk Bodhi discovered Zhou Feng¡¯s extraordinary talent, he instantly chose to die in meditation, his flesh and soul turning into a Buddhist seal that directly stuck to him.


    All this information was contained in the Buddhist seal.


    Furthermore, there wasn¡¯t the slightest bit of concealment, nor was there any deliberate deception. It was clearly displayed in front of Zhou Feng.


    Simply put, there weren¡¯t enough prodigies and monsters in the Central Plains at the moment. All kinds of cultivation legacies and heavenly and earthly treasures were the most abundant things.


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng¡¯s emotions were extremely complicated at this moment.


    He had never expected the Central Plains to be like this.


    What exactly was the reason for the bigshots hiding behind the scenes to do such a thing?


    Was it so difficult to break through to the immortal realm?


    However, even if he understood the whole story, no cultivator should be able to resist this temptation.


    Countless legacies were randomly picked up, and a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures were randomly consumed. No cultivator could refuse even if they knew that karma was entangled behind this.


    As he thought about this, Zhou Feng felt his Blood Qi begin to turn into red dragons.


    This was the Buddhist seal on his head starting to feed back, forcibly transforming his physical body.


    This was simply forcing him to break through.


    Zhou Feng did not need to pay any price for all of this. The only price he had to pay was to form karma with Mahayana Buddhism.


    However, karma itself was illusory. With his current cultivation level, he could not feel the entanglement of karma.


    Only when he had grown to a certain level would the entanglement of karma take effect.


    Wasn¡¯t this equivalent to a free loan? It would directly provide endless help to his cultivation path.


    ¡°Is it because after reaching a certain realm, ordinary cultivation resources have become unimportant to powerhouses?¡±


    Zhou Feng naturally began to think.


    Just in the Ascendance realm, he felt that he could move mountains and move seas and was almost omnipotent.


    And what would the next realm be like?


    Rebirth? Creation? Or other abilities¡­


    To those powerhouses, ordinary spiritual objects were like a blade of grass, completely useless.


    Even those so-called spirit plants and fruits could be easily produced in the eyes of these powerhouses.


    It was just like how cultivators could use divine abilities such as summoning the wind and rain to quickly ripen rice fields.


    Perhaps even a mortal¡¯s entire life¡¯s worth of rice fields could not compare to a cultivator¡¯s one month of hard work.


    Under such circumstances, those powerhouses would not care about the so-called heavenly and earthly treasures.


    While Zhou Feng was pondering, he found a bunch of golden spiritual fruits.


    Buddhist Spirit Fruits were spirit fruits that only grew in places where willpower was abundant.


    As long as one consumed the Buddhist Spirit Fruits, one¡¯s comprehension ability would be slightly improved, which was almost extinct outside the Central Plains.


    However, there were a bunch of Buddhist Spirit Fruits in front of Zhou Feng.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng looked ahead and suddenly found an ancient temple blocking his way.


    After a series of bell chimes, everything seemed to have calmed down.


    The bell chimes sounded leisurely. Zhou Feng felt as if he was being baptized. He felt as if he was in a dream, and his body was clear and pure.


    ¡°Amitabha! Junior Brother, you are here¡­¡±


    In the blink of an eye, a monk walked out of the ancient temple while chanting the name of Buddha.


    The falling petals were colorful, and the crystal-clear petals slowly fell from the sky. The chanting gradually increased.


    Guan Kong closed his eyes slightly as if he had merged with heaven and earth.


    From Zhou Feng¡¯s perspective, he only saw an ancient temple suddenly sitting in front of him.


    Then, an exceptionally handsome young monk walked out of the ancient temple and called him Junior Brother.


    Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes. ¡°Junior Brother? Who is your Junior Brother?¡±


    Guan Kong replied calmly, ¡°Of course, it¡¯s you, Junior Brother! The Buddhist seal on your head can prove everything.¡±


    After waiting for so long, he finally found another scapegoat.


    From now on, he could be considered to be able to leave this damned place.


    Before Zhou Feng had the chance to speak, Guan Kong spoke first. ¡°Although you killed the divine elephant before, you actually became a member of Mahayana Buddhism. These grudges can naturally be resolved.


    ¡°Moreover, this Sky Mountain Temple¡¯s 10,000-year-old incense willpower, Junior Brother can inherit it all.¡±


    He even pointed out the matter of him killing Bai Xiang previously.


    This made Zhou Feng¡¯s heart become even more vigilant.


    10,000-year-old incense willpower? This was probably a hot potato.


    The information he had previously gathered showed that the Central Plains did not lack so-called opportunities.


    On the contrary, there were not enough Children of Destiny. Countless opportunities and inheritances were waiting for the monstrous Children of Destiny to inherit them.


    Zhou Feng was already troubled by how to get rid of the Buddhist seal on his head.


    Now, there was another burden? This was absolutely impossible!


    Upon seeing that Zhou Feng did not speak, nor was there the slightest reaction, Guan Kong¡¯s half-closed eyes opened slightly.


    ¡°The Sky Mountain has arrived. Why don¡¯t you enter?¡±


    A Rebirth expert appeared out of thin air. Guan Kong¡¯s expression was calm, but crystalline lotus flowers began to form around him.


    That extraordinary aura made Zhou Feng feel as if he had come to a sudden realization.


    However, it was only a slight realization. Soon, Zhou Feng came to his senses.


    ¡°Say that again?¡±


    Guan Kong¡¯s expression was calm and peaceful as he shouted again, ¡°The Sky Mountain has arrived! Why are you standing there motionless?¡±


    ¡°F*ck you!¡±


    This time, Zhou Feng did not stand still in a daze. Instead, he was like a barrel of gunpowder that had been lit on its back as it directly exploded.


    He took large strides forward. His physical body, which had undergone countless transformations, erupted with resplendent divine light.


    His boundless reserves of Blood Qi were like a huge wave as it directly pressed down on the ancient temple in front of him.


    This ancient temple immediately went berserk as endless Buddhist light erupted. The terrifying willpower transformed into a torrent as it pressed down on Zhou Feng.


    When faced with the willpower that had been accumulated for over 10,000 years, Zou Feng¡¯s physical body was almost crushed.


    ¡°It seems that Junior Brother is still unwilling to return to his position. Then let me, your Senior Brother, help you!¡±


    When Guan Kong saw this, he fiddled with the Buddhist bead in his hand and then used the Buddhist Vajra Roar.


    ¡°Om!¡±


    This Buddhist mantra, coupled with the 10,000 years of the Sky Mountain Temple¡¯s continuous torrent of willpower, crushed Zhou Feng¡¯s body. Even his soul was affected. It was obvious that Guan Kong¡¯s strength was far above his.


    ¡°This is the strength of the Rebirth realm?¡±


    Although Zhou Feng¡¯s body was instantly crushed, he did not look worried at all. This was because his crushed body started to recover within a breath.


    The Blood Qi in his body started to boil. All sorts of passive skills were triggered, and his crushed body recovered.


    ¡°Bald donkey! Continue!¡±


    After his body recovered, Zhou Feng simply lay in front of the Sky Mountain Temple and let Guan Kong continue to crush his body.


    Obviously, the Central Plains were different from other places.


    There were all kinds of underwater currents, such as the polluting obsession and opportunities falling from the sky.


    If he wanted to go to the core area of the Central Plains, his current strength was absolutely not enough.


    Thus, Zhou Feng planned to temper his physical body here first.


    He would just use his shabby technique-lay on the ground!


    Guan Kong could beat him to death if he had the guts!

    Chapter 656: The Fragment of the Daoist Rite Temple


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    In the face of Zhou Feng¡¯s rude remarks, Guan Kong still maintained a calm expression because he was once like this, forcibly detained in this damned place by the previous bald donkey.


    At that time, he was that impulsive, that ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.


    Originally, he had assumed he could settle everything with his talent. However, here in the Central Plains, there was no lack of prodigies.


    The so-called fortuitous encounters were all huge pits.


    ¡°Junior Brother, I¡¯ll leave the Wise King inheritance to you. I¡¯ll also leave this 10,000-year-old ancient temple to you¡­¡±


    Guan Kong took a step forward. Spiritual Qi surged wildly, and the bell in the ancient temple rang.


    Arhat Buddhas rose one after another, continuously chanting Buddhist scriptures.


    Countless Vajra chains locked Zhou Feng. This was Guan Kong forcefully handing over the Wise King inheritance.


    As long as he got rid of this Wise King inheritance, Guan Kong could leave this damned place and regain his freedom.


    If he missed this opportunity, he did not know how long he would have to wait.


    For this reason, Guan Kong spat out a mouthful of blood essence and forcefully activated the willpower in the ancient temple.


    The vast Buddhist willpower once again gathered into a torrent, and a Demon-Subduing Vajra Pestle was forcefully shoved into Zhou Feng¡¯s hand.


    ¡°Om!¡±


    With Guan Kong¡¯s angry roar, the ethereal entanglement of karma relaxed slightly.


    Sensing that the karma in his body had loosened slightly, Guan Kong fled at the fastest speed.


    In Zhou Feng¡¯s perception, Guan Kong¡¯s aura suddenly weakened to the extreme.


    If it was said that Guan Kong¡¯s aura before was like a brilliant sun, then now it was like yesterday¡¯s daylily, instantly dispirited.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t understand why this so-called Wise King inheritance was so terrifying. It was like Guan Kong had thrown away a hot potato, and he had paid a huge price to do so.


    Still, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t do anything about it. After all, Guan Kong¡¯s realm was higher than his.


    Although he could guarantee that he wouldn¡¯t die when facing Guan Kong, he couldn¡¯t refuse this kind of forced inheritance.


    A white lotus appeared on Zhou Feng¡¯s forehead.


    It directly overlapped with the Buddhist seal of Old Monk Bodhi.


    These two seals represented two kinds of inheritances, and now they were both inherited by him.


    The two forces began to intertwine. They were both Buddhist inheritances, but these two forces seemed to be incompatible with each other.


    A fierce conflict began in his body.


    This was not what gave Zhou Feng the greatest headache.


    The strange state of the world around him gave him the greatest headache.


    All sorts of Buddha and Bodhisattva phantoms seemed to be returning to their places. The Buddhist light and willpower transformed into a kasaya and draped over his body.


    Zhou Feng immediately felt tremendous pressure. The Buddhist power and light were constantly suppressing his physical body.


    From this moment on, the 10,000-year-old ancient temple named Sky Mountain Temple in front of him was completely inherited by him.


    Countless Buddhist scriptures, precious willpower artifacts, and affiliated spirit lands all belonged to him.


    However, correspondingly, Zhou Feng needed to bear the rise and fall of this ancient temple.


    Responsibility and obligation had always been the same.


    Since Zhou Feng had inherited Sky Mountain Temple, he needed to protect the interests of Sky Mountain Temple as well as some responsibilities.


    This was a Mahayana Buddhist training hall, and it was also the property of Mahayana Buddhism, and Zhou Feng, the new abbot, was the manager of this training hall.


    ¡°What the hell¡­¡±


    Zhou Feng frowned even more, and the willpower kasaya on his body pressed down on him.


    He had inexplicably become the abbot of this ancient temple!?


    ¡°It¡¯s done!¡±


    Guan Kong, who had fled thousands of miles away, felt his soul suddenly relax, and the heavy shackles were suddenly released.


    Uncontrollable ecstasy immediately flooded Guan Kong¡¯s face.


    ¡®That person can actually withstand the Wise King inheritance. He is indeed worthy of being chosen by Old Monk Bodhi.


    ¡®This time, I made the right bet!¡¯


    Speaking of which, it was not the first time that Guan Kong had forcefully passed the Wise King inheritance to someone else.


    He had been trying to pass the damn Wise King inheritance to someone else for God knew how many years.


    However, not many people could withstand the Wise King inheritance. God knew how many people had been crushed into minced meat by the Wise King inheritance.


    He did not expect to succeed this time.


    ¡®I have to leave this damned place!¡¯


    At that moment, Guan Kong only had one thought: to leave this damned place as soon as possible and head toward the central area.


    Only in that place would he not have to constantly worry about the chance that the heavens would smite him.


    Upon thinking of this, Guan Kong¡¯s spirit relaxed slightly.


    In the next second, black smoke covered the sky, and his scarlet eyes appeared above the nine heavens.


    ¡°What!?¡±


    With a scream, Guan Kong¡¯s body was pierced through by a huge claw.


    ¡­


    Meanwhile, Zhou Feng had already completely digested the specific information in the Wise King inheritance.


    ¡°The Daoist Rite¡­ There¡¯s actually such a thing¡­¡±


    This so-called Sky Mountain Temple was actually a fragment of an ancient Buddha¡¯s Daoist rite.


    The so-called Daoist rite was something that would definitely appear after one¡¯s cultivation had reached a certain level.


    Throughout the path of cultivation, from the physical body to the divine soul, mortals became Inhuman, and the power they could control became more and more exaggerated.


    But from the beginning of comprehending the laws of the Heavenly Dao, cultivators seemed to only be able to borrow the power of heaven and earth and use the laws of the Heavenly Dao.


    Even though they could only borrow the power of heaven and earth, they could achieve the feat of moving mountains and shifting seas.


    However, this was still not enough for those mighty figures. They still needed to control even more power.


    It was best to completely control the power in their hands and not need to borrow the laws of the Heavenly Dao.


    The so-called divine abilities were only performed by borrowing the laws of the Heavenly Dao. They needed to get rid of the laws of heaven and earth.


    Therefore, the best method was to condense a Daoist Rite Temple, reverse Yin and Yang within a certain range, and change death into life. Using one¡¯s own laws to replace the laws of heaven and earth.


    This was a realm above the Rebirth realm. Zhou Feng could not understand more information.


    However, one thing was certain-these condensed Daoist Rite Temples were like independent spaces.


    Even if the master of the Daoist Rite Temple had already fallen, he could still survive.


    Now, the Sky Mountain Temple that Zhou Feng inherited was a fragment of the fallen Buddha Daoist Hall.


    There was another heavenly passage inside it, and it could connect to other places.


    What he needed to do now was to steadily harvest the incense and willpower of the small world Inside the Sky Mountain Temple while resisting the erosion of the nearby monsters.


    Simply put, it was all kinds of dirty and tiring work.


    ¡°And I can¡¯t not do it.¡±


    Zhou Feng could already feel the kasaya on his body becoming heavier and heavier.


    This was practically forcing him to follow a work schedule spanning from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., six days per week, and he didn¡¯t even have the chance to refuse.


    After thinking it repeatedly, he chose to mess it up.


    He sat down on the ground. Zhou Feng wanted to see if this so-called Wise King inheritance could force him to work.


    ¡°Just in time to see the new passive¡­¡±


    As he chose to destroy it, he opened the skill panel and found that the progress bar was full.


    Even heaven and earth couldn¡¯t stop him from drawing new passive skills!


    ¡°Drawing!¡±


    ¡°Drawing¡­¡±


    After a while, a brand new passive skill appeared in front of him.

 Chapter 657

    ?


    Chapter 657: Passive! Blood Strengthening!


    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Blood Strengthening: You can choose to use your Blood Qi to strengthen your body. The strengthening effect depends on the quality and quantity of your Blood Qi.


    ¡°Strengthen the body? Just use Blood Qi to strengthen it?¡±


    When Zhou Feng saw this passive effect, he didn¡¯t have much of a reaction.


    After all, this passive effect didn¡¯t seem like much. Compared to the passive skills that he had obtained previously, it could only be described as normal.


    However, this passive skill seemed to be compatible with the Taotie Instinct he had previously gained.


    The Taotie Instinct could devour all things and convert them into Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi, which could also nourish the body.


    In addition, he had a passive Second Heart, and the Blood Qi in his entire body was like a vast ocean.


    This new passive didn¡¯t seem so bad after all.


    While Zhou Feng was thinking, the passive Blood Strengthening was triggered.


    The surging Blood Qi was constantly consumed and began nourishing his body.


    At first, he only felt his entire body go numb. His body, which had been tempered to the extreme, began to slowly rise again.


    Such an obvious change made Zhou Feng feel that it was not bad.


    After all, the stronger his physical body was, the greater the chances of him surviving.


    Now, he had inexplicably become the abbot of this Sky Mountain Temple and had even inherited two Buddhist legacies.


    No matter how he looked at it, something was wrong. It was not wrong to have a stronger physical body.


    Gradually, Zhou Feng began to feel that something was wrong.


    The speed at which the Blood Qi was being converted was getting faster and faster. It felt as if there was a pump in his body.


    A huge amount of Blood Qi was converted, and pure Blood Qi began to rise.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s entire body was filled with this pure Blood Qi, and countless impurities were expelled.


    Moreover, all the hidden injuries were healed during this process, and the weaker parts of his body were also tempered.


    ¡®This¡­¡¯


    He did not expect the passive Blood Strengthening¡¯s effect to be so good.


    Moreover, his physical body did not seem to have reached its limit, and it was slowly improving.


    However, the corresponding problem appeared. The massive amount of Blood Qi was converted, and he directly showed signs of Blood Qi depletion.


    His ruddy face slowly turned pale.


    ¡°I need to quickly replenish my Blood Qi!¡±


    Zhou Feng immediately took out a pile of spirit herbs and precious flesh and began to devour them crazily.


    As soon as these things were swallowed, the passive Taotie Instinct was triggered, directly digesting everything.


    Taotie Instinct and Blood Strengthening were indeed the best two passive partners.


    Zhou Feng felt that his physical body had become even more terrifying in just a short while.


    The backlash of the Longevity Fist, the Longevity Steps, and some self-harming moves were no longer so serious when used now.


    This was the benefit of having a stronger physical body.


    Just as he was getting excited, the Buddhist seal on his forehead began to glow.


    An irresistible suction force sucked Zhou Feng into the empty mountain temple.


    The world spun.


    ¡°I¡¯m¡­¡±


    He came back to his senses and suddenly found himself in a very unfamiliar place.


    ¡®A Buddhist temple?¡¯


    There was a Buddha in front of him, and there were no other statues around him.


    As mentioned earlier, this Sky Mountain Temple was actually a fragment of an ancient Buddha¡¯s Daoist Rite Temple.


    Naturally, it contained an independent world. The place in front of him was the space of the Daoist Rite Temple.


    It was equivalent to a small world where hundreds of millions of people lived.


    Zhou Feng¡¯s duty now was to harvest the incense and willpower of this small world and to resist the invasion of the demi-humans.


    That¡¯s right! This small world was not absolutely safe.


    After all, it was still a fragment of the training hall. It was not a complete grotto-heaven, so it was easy for other demi-humans and cultivators to invade.


    Therefore, resisting the invasion was the most important thing.


    All the above-mentioned information came from the Buddhist seal on his forehead.


    ¡°You really want me to work?¡±


    Zhou Feng did not expect such a strange thing to happen.


    In this world, someone actually captured him to be a coolie?


    ¡°Abbot? The new abbot has reincarnated and come to the mortal world!¡±


    ¡°Great! Now our Sky Mountain Temple is not leaderless.¡±


    ¡°Quickly invite the abbot to deal with that Blood Shadow Devil¡­¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Just as he was thinking of how to get rid of the Buddhist seal on his forehead, a group of monks walked in.


    These monks all had extraordinary auras. Their cultivations were all in the Ascendance realm and were on par with him.


    Among them, the monk leading them had the most profound aura and actually gave him a sense of danger.


    ¡°This new abbot¡¯s cultivation¡­¡±


    ¡°Is he only in the Ascendance realm? How could he¡­¡±


    ¡°That Blood Shadow Devil is a great devil who has reversed Yin and Yang and reached the Yin-Yang realm¡­¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry¡­¡±


    Guan Ming frowned when he noticed Zhou Feng¡¯s cultivation.


    Why was this new abbot¡¯s cultivation lower than the previous abbot¡¯s?


    It shouldn¡¯t be!


    Although he was puzzled, Guan Ming chose to believe in Buddha¡¯s judgment.


    In this crisis, Zhou Feng¡¯s reincarnation must have something special about him.


    At that moment, Zhou Feng¡¯s heart stirred.


    Countless Buddhist scriptures, along with information about the Blood Shadow Devil, appeared in his mind.


    Was he supposed to deal with this Blood Shadow Devil?


    ¡®Buddhist essence, a huge amount of resources, and the crisis in front of me¡­¡¯


    Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows.


    He could confirm that the Wise King inheritance on his forehead had countless Buddhist divine abilities, and there were even techniques to break through to the Rebirth realm and even the Yin-Yang realm.


    With the cultivation technique inheritance, then there were cultivation resources.


    As the current abbot of the Sky Mountain Temple, the temple¡¯s treasury was now completely open to him.


    With the cultivation techniques and resources, next was the motivation for cultivation-a Yin-Yang devil that had invaded this small world.


    Under all these factors, Zhou Feng couldn¡¯t even stop cultivating.


    Escape? There was no way he could escape.


    The Buddhist seal on his forehead firmly suppressed him. Once he wanted to escape, the endless willpower would transform into a kasaya and ruthlessly suppress him.


    ¡°Abbot?¡±


    Guan Ming and the other monks stared at Zhou Feng with burning eyes.


    ¡°Get out.¡±


    Zhou Feng thought for a while and spat out two words.


    Right now, he wanted to slowly think of a countermeasure alone and didn¡¯t want to be disturbed.


    ¡°This¡­¡±


    ¡°Leave first!¡±


    Guan Ming and the others looked at each other and chose to leave the hall first.


    After everyone left, Zhou Feng started to think again.


    ¡°Compromise like this? Should I switch to cultivating these Buddhist divine abilities first, or¡­¡±


    Based on his current situation, he could completely compromise first and increase his strength first. When his strength reached a certain level, he would slowly work on it.


    At first glance, this seemed like a good idea.


    After all, Zhou Feng had directly become the abbot of the Sky Mountain Temple. Not only did he have all sorts of Buddhist inheritances, but he could also freely control cultivation resources.


    No matter how he looked at it, it would not be a loss to increase his strength first.


    However, this idea was quickly abandoned. 1


    This was because it was obvious that there was someone who could arrange it. Yet, he did not follow the plan of the person behind the scenes.


    They wanted him to work? Diligently collect the incense and willpower and then resist the invasion of the great devil?


    This was impossible!


    He couldn¡¯t cultivate any divine abilities or techniques, but he had to swallow all the cultivation resources.
