Meanwhile, within the Cangshi Realm.
The golden divine light gradually receded.
The celestial phenomena triggered by the Innate Chaos Divine Body in the sky spread across the firmament, lingering for a long time.
[Innate Chaos Divine Body, fusion progress 16%...]
Su Chenxiao felt a warm current continuously washing over his body, bringing him considerable relief.
His previously crippled roots and cultivation were also gradually recovering.
Core Formation Realm...
Su Chenxiao looked at the people present, who had been in shock for a while.
"System, check panel."
[Beep... Checking panel.]
[Name: Lin Hongtian] [Identity: Clan Head of the Ye Family in Qingcheng, Cangshi Realm] [Realm: Soul Sea Realm, Triple Stage] ... [Name: Fang Yuancai] [Identity: Elder Disciple of the Tianqi Dao Lineage, Cangshi Realm] [Realm: Soul Sea Realm, Fifth Stage] ...
"Soul Sea Realm..."
Su Chenxiao's eyes flickered, and he let out a long sigh.
The highest cultivation here was only Soul Sea Realm.
He had previously been restricted by that bitch Lin Qingran using the Tianqi Dao Sect's Spirit Locking Pill.
Once the Innate Chaos Divine Body fusion was complete and he recovered his Soul Sea Realm ninth stage cultivation, no one present would be able to stop him!
This damn hell-level difficulty. Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river.
Since I've awakened the Villain System, once I escape this predicament, I will make all of you pay the price!
A ruthless glint flashed in Su Chenxiao's pupils, he thought to himself.
On the other side.
"Celestial phenomena, this is definitely celestial phenomena!"
"I never imagined that even after his cultivation and roots were crippled, this guy could still achieve this..."
Gazing at the almost blinding golden divine light in the sky.
Fang Yuancai's breathing grew rapid, his face filled with infatuation and fervor.
These natives of Qingcheng had no idea how powerful a Divine Body truly was.
Innate God-Demon Body!
This must be the phenomenon caused by the Innate God-Demon Body!
Such a powerful constitution, only I, Fang Yuancai, am worthy of possessing it!
Mine! It's mine!!
Fang Yuancai roared in his heart.
Beside him, Lin Qingran was equally stunned.
She suddenly remembered what Su Chenxiao had told her before.
The reason he could possess Soul Sea Realm cultivation at such a young age was because his constitution was unparalleled.
Even across all the heavens, it was one of the very best!
However, such a constitution, when one was young and without background, was most easily coveted.
Even if they couldn't seize his constitution, countless people would try to refine pills using his essence blood and flesh.
The reason he had always stayed in Qingcheng, this remote place in the Cangshi Realm, was partly due to his constitution.
But more than that, it was because of her.
Lin Qingran looked at the shocked crowd and then at Fang Yuancai, whose face was filled with frantic desire.
A thought, unlike any she had ever had before, began to form in her heart.
Perhaps...
She could wait for Su Chenxiao's growth?
But as soon as this thought appeared, she quickly dismissed it.
No!
The only ones worthy of me, Lin Qingran, are those with extraordinary backgrounds, the top prodigies!
What does it matter if a constitution is powerful?
Without a strong background, aren't you still destined to be a stepping stone for others?
Besides, she was never the kind of woman who wanted to rely on others.
Only by joining the Tianqi Dao Lineage and becoming powerful herself could she control everything.
Just as everyone was mesmerized by this spectacular sight.
A supremely joyful, booming laugh echoed from within the venue.
"Hahaha! A celestial phenomenon!"
"My good disciple, I never expected that, just as you said in your message, a divine body prodigy would appear in this tiny Qingcheng!!"
An elder with an immortal demeanor, white hair, and a youthful face descended from the sky.
Upon seeing the newcomer.
The Clan Heads of Qingcheng's various clans present were all startled and quickly rose to greet him in unison.
"Qingcheng Ye Family Head Ye Hongtian, welcomes the esteemed Elder Ning of the Tianqi Dao Sect!"
"We pay our respects to Elder Ning!"
From the moment he arrived, Ning Feng's gaze was fixed on Su Chenxiao, who was tied to the pillar.
He merely glanced at the crowd, saying nothing, his eyes filled with arrogance and disdain.
This insignificant place, Qingcheng.
If it weren't for his disciple mentioning an unparalleled opportunity here, he, with his status, would never have traveled so far to this place.
Ning Feng bypassed the clan heads and walked directly to Fang Yuancai.
The people present were, after all, the heads of Qingcheng's major families.
Seeing Ning Feng completely ignore them, several clan heads' expressions soured.
Lin Qingran took all this in and felt even more fortunate that her choice was correct.
She had only sacrificed an unfavored Su Chenxiao to secure a bright future for herself!
It was worth it!
"Master."
Fang Yuancai closed the folding fan in his hand and stepped forward to bow.
"Mm." Ning Feng nodded slightly and said plainly.
"Disciple, the Innate God-Demon Body is a rare sight in this world."
"You did well this time. When we return, I will reward you handsomely."
Ning Feng paused at this, looking around.
He only saw his disciple Fang Yuancai here and asked with some confusion.
"Um... where is your senior brother?"
Fang Yuancai quickly put on a sorrowful expression, lamenting with deep pain.
"Master, your disciple is incompetent!"
"I intended to find talented disciples for our sect in Qingcheng, but I didn't expect that divine demonic body to be so vicious!"
"He actually killed my senior brother over a mere verbal dispute!"
"If not for the assistance of this Miss Lin, that devil would have long since escaped without a trace!"
As he spoke, Fang Yuancai pushed Lin Qingran, who was beside him, forward.
"Is that so..."
Upon hearing the news of his disciple's death, Ning Feng's expression showed little fluctuation.
Just a disciple.
He had many disciples under him; losing one was not a significant matter.
Ning Feng glanced indifferently at Lin Qingran beside him and spoke.
"You must be Lin Qingran, the daughter of the Lin family, whom my disciple mentioned?"
The master of Senior Brother Fang was a powerful figure in the Shattering Realm!
Lin Qingran felt as if she were being completely seen through and quickly bowed.
"Greetings, Elder Ning!"
Ning Feng nodded slightly.
Fang Yuancai, relieved that his master wasn't delving deeper into his senior brother's death, quickly interjected from the side.
"Master, Qingran is only sixteen and already at the Core Formation Realm. My cultivation is decent, what do you think..."
Ning Feng glanced at him.
He could see right through Fang Yuancai's little scheme.
This girl had a pretty face, but her aptitude was mediocre and she wasn't of much use.
Although he didn't know how she reached the Core Formation Realm at this age, she must have had some fortunate encounters.
However, considering Fang Yuancai's merit in finding an unparalleled opportunity.
Ning Feng didn't think too much about it and said indifferently.
"Good. You have merit in helping my Tianqi Dao Lineage capture the thief. From now on, you will be my disciple, Ning Feng."
What?!
This simple sentence sent a shockwave through everyone present!
The Lin Family was truly blessed!
If one entered the Tianqi Dao Lineage, it would truly be a case of one person achieving the Dao and all their relatives ascending to heaven!
Qingcheng once respected the Ye Family above all else, but even a thousand Ye Families combined would be nothing more than ants before the Tianqi Dao Lineage!
In the future, Qingcheng would likely see a change in power...
Many people immediately cast envious glances!
Lin Qingran's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, overjoyed!
Her father, Lin Tai, blushed and excitedly said to his precious daughter.
"Qingran! To be able to join the Tianqi Dao Lineage and become a disciple of Elder Ning is truly a blessing for our Lin Family for three lifetimes!"
"Quick! Why don't you pay your respects to your Master!"
Lin Qingran suppressed the excitement in her heart.
She stepped forward with a composed demeanor, bowed slightly, and said humbly.
"Disciple Lin Qingran, pays respects to Master!!"
At this moment, she could feel the envious and jealous gazes from those around her!
Her heart couldn't help but feel even more proud!
She had entered the Tianqi Dao Lineage she had always dreamed of.
From today onwards, she would have no connection with these common folk of Qingcheng!
"Alright."
Ning Feng didn't show much emotion.
Instead, he turned and looked at Su Chenxiao, who was tied to a pillar.
His eyes flickered as he spoke.
"Disciple, someone with the Innate God-Demon Body is no ordinary person."
"This child is so young yet managed to kill your senior brother. Could he be from one of the other three great Dao Lineages?"
Behind such monstrous talents, there were usually terrifying backers.
If he were the disciple of a Supreme Elder from one of the other three great Dao Lineages, even he himself couldn't afford to offend them.
As if sensing his Master's concern.
Fang Yuancai stepped forward with a smile and explained.
"Please rest assured, Master. I have already investigated this child's background. He is merely an orphan from Qingcheng with no parents."
"He has absolutely no one behind him!"
"Is that so..." Ning Feng's eyes narrowed slightly, a flicker of undetectable greed flashing within them.
Although he wouldn't strip the Divine Body, the Essence Blood of a Divine Body was a good thing.
"But, disciple... why do I also sense an aura of Dao charm from you?"
Fang Yuancai's face changed drastically upon hearing this!
This old immortal!
He really couldn't hide anything from him!
As if he had suddenly thought of something, he directly offered the Divine Bone he had obtained.
"Haha, Master sees through everything. Your disciple just happened to obtain a treasure. Seeing its extraordinary nature, I was planning to offer it to you as well!"
"Such a divine object, your disciple believes that only you, Master, in this entire world, are worthy of possessing it!"
This jade bone was naturally formed, exquisite and unparalleled.
Ancient and mysterious runes were inscribed on it, and Daoist charm flowed all around it. It was clearly not an ordinary object at first glance!
Sensing the aura filled with Dao charm.
Ning Feng's eyes glinted with even greater greed.
Without a change in his expression, he accepted the Divine Bone, nodded, and rarely, a smile appeared on his face.
"Good, good!"
"My good disciple, you've been very thoughtful."
"Your master has been stuck at the ninth level of the Shattering Realm for a long time. With this divine artifact, I believe I'll be able to break through and attain enlightenment in just a few days!"
"As for that fellow with the Divine Body, we can extract his Essence Blood and refine it into a pill."
"At that time, you'll get your share too."
Fang Yuancai was instantly overjoyed and quickly said.
"I wouldn't dare. For my master to be able to break through and attain enlightenment is my greatest wish!"
"Hahaha!" Ning Feng let out a hearty laugh, clearly in high spirits.
Their conversation was completely unguarded, and Su Chenxiao heard every word.
This old geezer, he wants to capture me and draw out my blood to refine pills?!
From Ning Feng's status panel, he was a powerhouse in the Shattering Realm!
The Shattering Realm was two major realms higher than the Soul Sea Realm!
This meant that even if he recovered his cultivation, he wouldn't be able to escape this man's clutches!
"Damn System!"
"If you want me dead, just say so!"
Su Chenxiao said coldly.
"What kind of villain starts like this? A Shattering Realm mighty figure shows up, how am I supposed to run?"
[Ding...]
[Master is the Heavenly Mandate Villain. As a villain, you should possess the elegance befitting a villain. For now, please wait for the Innate Chaos Divine Body to fuse. There's no need to worry.]
[Innate Chaos Divine Body Fusion Progress: 45%...]
?
Just as Su Chenxiao was about to speak.
Suddenly, Ning Feng stepped right in front of Su Chenxiao.
He raised his withered, ancient right hand and placed it directly on Su Chenxiao's face.
Immediately, a strange power surged forth.
Ning Feng let out a laugh.
"Disciple, you must watch closely!"
"I will pass down this supreme technique of mine to you when we return."
"From now on, you will be responsible for extracting the blood slave's Essence Blood daily!"
"This technique is called..."
"Blood Drawing Technique!"
Ning Feng shouted, his white beard fluttering wildly. A powerful and terrifying suction force surged from his palm!
It was like a whale swallowing the ocean, a tidal surge.
It directly caused Su Chenxiao's Essence Blood to boil and churn, attempting to be forcibly drawn out against its will!
"Ah!!"
Su Chenxiao gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot, staring intently at Ning Feng.
"Damn... old geezer..."
Feeling his Essence Blood being forcibly extracted, the pain was no less than being flayed alive!
The surrounding people from Qingcheng watched with wide eyes, looking at the scene with confusion.
"What is Elder Ning doing?"
"He seems to be trying to draw out that beast's blood!"
"Good! Only if he dies can we appease the wrath of the Tianqi Dao Sect!"
From afar, Lin Qingran's beautiful eyes flickered, filled with annoyance.
Is Su Chenxiao's blood really that potent?
To think that even an elder from the Tianqi Dao Sect would crave Su Chenxiao's Divine Blood so much.
I am the greatest contributor to this matter!
After my master refines the blood into a pill, I will definitely ask Fang Yuancai for a share!
And what Lin Qingran didn't know was...
With her utterly unremarkable talent, the only reason she was able to break through to the Core Formation Realm was because Su Chenxiao fed her elixirs mixed with Essence Blood daily, transforming her body. Only then did she achieve her current cultivation!
Sensing that surging, powerful Bloodline Power, Ning Feng's eyes grew brighter.
"Good! Good stuff!"
Suddenly!
"RUMBLE!!"
The clear sky, which should have been bathed in bright sunshine, was suddenly filled with lightning, thunder, and dark clouds. The earth began to shake!
It was as if the heavens were collapsing.
A furious roar, like a thunderclap, erupted from the sky, echoing everywhere!
"Who dares touch my brother!!"
"Insects of the Cangshi Realm, do you wish for your world to be annihilated!!"
