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—this 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
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.
jas
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–they 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?
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, thes
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
"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
"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
"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—the 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?
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
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—killing 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 mo 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…"
