You killed a Third-order Wolf Demon. Your Kill Intent Proficiency increased.
Panel information refreshed.
In that instant, after blasting the wolf demon to death with a single punch, the power of dragon scales erupting from Chen Feng's body swiftly receded.
Huff!
He let out a long breath.
Only then did Chen Feng feel the exhaustion in his body.
Unleashing ten times his strength and defense at once still placed quite a burden on his fleshly body.
With a flicker, Chen Feng landed before the wolf demon.
He said coldly, "Did Huang Haisheng send you?"
His face was icy.
The dying wolf demon had mockery in its eyes.
It wanted to speak, but it no longer had the chance. It directly became a corpse.
Killing intent filled Chen Feng's eyes. There was no longer any need to hear the answer; the wolf demon's gaze had already told him.
That Huang Haisheng was actually still alive!
Only then did Wan Baoyang, who had been chasing after them from behind, land before Chen Feng. Shock and disbelief filled his eyes as he cried out, "Chen Feng, was that the talent you awakened just now?"
There was a trace of weariness in Chen Feng's eyes. Hearing Wan Baoyang's words, he finally felt relieved and nodded. "Yes. Luckily, this wolf demon fell for it. Otherwise, I would have been in trouble."
Wan Baoyang's eyes were filled with envy. "So that's how it is."
No wonder Sword Cultivator Yun Xi had taken such a liking to Chen Feng, even giving him her own Recommendation Token!
During the battle just now, he had sensed that Chen Feng had actually broken through his realm in the midst of combat.
Then, in the instant his cultivation broke through, he had used that terrifying Martial Talent and punched the wolf demon to death.
Having just entered the second order, he killed a third-order opponent across realms.
As long as a martial artist like this did not fall midway, he would surely become a future prodigy of the Human Ranking!
As Wan Baoyang considered this, he asked, "Brother Chen, what do you plan to do next?"
"This time, you killed three demons. Once we return, you'll earn at least a hundred points."
Hearing this, Chen Feng looked toward Black Mountain and said solemnly, "Brother Wan, do you know what the situation in Black Mountain is now? Should we go in and take a look?"
Wan Baoyang pondered for a moment before replying gravely, "Entering Black Mountain now probably isn't a good time."
"I heard that recently, not only have Demon Cult followers gathered in Black Mountain, but some demons have gathered there as well."
"Moreover, judging from what has happened these past few days, a Demon General may very well have appeared in Black Mountain."
"Organized demons and unorganized demons are not the same thing. We're still young, so it's best to be cautious."
Chen Feng's eyes held some surprise. "A Demon General? What does that mean?"
Wan Baoyang glanced around. Seeing quite a few villagers looking in their direction, he continued, "Let's change places. If we say too much here, we may cause these villagers to panic."
Chen Feng nodded. "All right."
Then, with a wave of his hand, he stored away the corpses of all three wolf demons.
The Blood Dragon Devouring Art he had just advanced needed demon corpses for cultivation.
Besides, it could be said that all three demons had died at Chen Feng's hands.
Wan Baoyang only needed a little Demon essence blood from one of them, so he had no intention of competing for anything.
By then, many villagers had gathered around them.
When they looked at Chen Feng and Wan Baoyang, their eyes were filled with reverence.
Especially when they looked at Chen Feng, some of them still had disbelief in their eyes.
Was this really Chen Feng from their village?
Even Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu, standing to one side, were deeply shaken and did not dare step forward.
Seeing this, Chen Feng smiled. "Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, don't you recognize me?"
"If you can go to the County Town, you can return there with us later."
"The villages at the foot of Black Mountain will probably be unsafe from now on."
Smiles appeared on Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu's faces. Uncle Liu hurriedly said, "All right."
"Liu Yuan wrote to me earlier as well. We were planning to go stay in the County Town for a while."
Chen Feng smiled. "All right."
Then he and Wan Baoyang entered the house where he had once lived.
It was still the same old mud-brick house. After opening the door, Chen Feng looked at the surroundings inside, his eyes complicated.
Although he had only been gone for a few days, why did it feel as though a very long time had passed?
Wan Baoyang glanced at the humble house, surprise in his eyes. "Brother Chen, is this where you used to live?"
Chen Feng's expression was complicated as he nodded. "Yes, I grew up here."
"If not for Sword Cultivator Yun Xi, I probably would have become a hunter."
Wan Baoyang's eyes held admiration. "Brother Chen truly is a genius, and Sword Cultivator Yun Xi truly had the discerning eye to recognize a pearl!"
Chen Feng smiled and did not say more on that subject. Instead, he continued asking, "Brother Wan, about the Demon General you mentioned earlier?"
Wan Baoyang nodded. "We martial artists are divided into ranks one through nine, while demons correspondingly range from the first to ninth order."
"Once one reaches the sixth order, they are essentially powerhouses capable of guarding an entire region."
"In Great Qian, sixth-order powerhouses are basically lords of a city, and they also serve as legion commanders of the demon-hunting armies stationed there."
"Among demons, they are called Demon Generals. Do you know why?"
Chen Feng shook his head. "I truly don't."
He had only entered the Martial World for a few short days.
Although he had read some basic information, he truly did not understand matters like this.
Wan Baoyang's eyes held a trace of complexity as he said gravely, "Before the sixth order, martial cultivation, whether body refinement or Qi Cultivation, only involves cultivation related to oneself."
"After reaching the sixth order, however, one begins comprehending artistic conceptions. Any martial artist who comprehends an artistic conception can alter the weather with a wave of the hand, overturn mountains and seas. One person can destroy a city, so they are also called walking natural disasters."
Chen Feng's pupils contracted slightly. He said in shock, "One person destroys a city? A city like our Black Stone City?"
Wan Baoyang nodded. "That's right."
"To be called a city, it must at least be a County Town."
One had to know that the only city Chen Feng knew of now was Black Stone City. It was still one of the weakest County Towns, yet it had a population of over a million.
There were also vast numbers of martial artists there, yet a single sixth-order demon could destroy an entire city?
Disbelief filled Chen Feng's eyes. He shook his head and muttered, "How is that possible?"
Knowing Chen Feng had never seen such things, Wan Baoyang continued explaining, "There is nothing impossible about it."
"What a sixth-order powerhouse can accomplish depends on the artistic conception they have comprehended."
"For example, the lord of Black Stone City is also known as Mountain Mover True Person. He comprehended the Mountain Moving artistic conception. Once he uses that artistic conception, he can even forcibly move mountains in reality."
"Even the shortest mountain is hundreds of meters high. If he moved dozens of such mountains in succession and smashed them into Black Stone City, wouldn't that destroy an entire city?"
Imagining that scene, Chen Feng was aghast and cried out, "Can martial artists truly reach such a level?"
He simply could not imagine how terrifying that would be!
Wan Baoyang said with a complicated expression, "Yes. And that is only for sixth-order martial artists who have comprehended artistic conceptions. Once one reaches the realm of a Seventh-order Grandmaster, they become even more terrifying."
"With a wave of the hand, heaven and earth change color."
"In martial cultivation, the gap is not too great before the sixth order. But after reaching the sixth order, the difference between even minor realms is like a heavenly chasm."
"This realm was said to have once been called the Immortal on Land Realm."
Chen Feng's expression was complicated as he murmured, "So that's how it is. If there truly is a sixth-order Demon General in Black Mountain, then we really should not enter carelessly now."
At that moment, he also thought of Sword Cultivator Yun Xi.
Sixth-order powerhouses were already so terrifying.
Then how powerful was Sword Cultivator Yun Xi, who had escaped alive from a sixth-order powerhouse with only Tier 5 cultivation?
Wan Baoyang said gravely, "Yes. So for us, the most important thing is to raise our cultivation. Only after reaching at least the fifth order can we enter Black Mountain and have a greater chance of surviving."
Chen Feng nodded. "All right."
After that, he chatted with Wan Baoyang about other matters, greatly broadening Chen Feng's horizons.
He learned more about the Martial World of Great Qian.
Then, after discussing matters with Wan Baoyang,
Wan Baoyang chose to return first. Chen Feng asked him to pass a message to Lin Xue, saying that he needed to pack up some things in the village and would return later.
In truth, Chen Feng wanted to try the Blood Dragon Devouring Art.
But he worried that if he returned and devoured demons there, the city's powerhouses might have some other way of spying on him, or that some accident might occur. That would be troublesome.
It was better to try it here in this mountain village.
