The battle was over. At the moment when the Ghost-Faced Man was easily killed by Xiao Tian, Ghost-Faced Man's leader, far away in the inner Kunlun Mountain Range, sensed something.
"One has fallen. In that case, let half the world's creatures celebrate for you, my comrade. You may leave this land of sin now, while I shall continue my conquest here."
With a flick of his skeletal hand, the Ghost-Faced Man leader conjured a strange, black skull goblet, which gradually filled with a green liquid.
The skull cup tilted, and the green liquid clung to the ground, forming a bizarre pattern in the hands of the Ghost-Faced Man leader—a combination of mysterious runes and an ancient beast.
The eerie patterns emitted a hazy, ancient gray light, with points of light shooting into the sky and disappearing into the void.
In an instant, the Ghost-Faced Man scattered throughout the Kunlun Mountain Range sensed the information and obtained it.
"Begin the hunt!"
The Yellow Ox was very excited. After mastering the Universal Mental Technique, he kept harassing Chu Feng and Zhou Quan in a childish tone.
"You brat! Shut up right now! The fairy shouldn't have taught you this technique. I can't even rest in peace!" Zhou Quan was trembling with anger. After the battle, he wanted to take a nap, but a sudden voice invaded his brain. At first, he thought it was a hallucination.
But as the kicking motion came, Zhou Quan immediately understood!
Afterwards, Zhou Quan inquired about the situation and realized that it was the method given by Fairy Yun Shang that enabled the Yellow Ox to communicate with people.
Chu Feng looked helpless and had a headache. Yellow Ox used to be a little better, but now he had a mouth that could speak without actually opening its mouth.
The Yellow Ox was also sensible and didn't provoke Fairy Yun Shang, who was Xiao Tian. He just kept talking to Chu Feng, Zhou Quan, and the Handless Asura Tang Taiyuan, who was hanging on by a thread and being carried by Chu Feng.
Tang Taiyuan originally wanted to end his life, but the Yellow Ox's childish voice kept bothering him, making him think of his great-grandson, who was just over two years old, in the Tang Clan home far away.
His great-grandson's voice was childish, much like the Yellow Ox's.
Tang Taiyuan became obsessed with living.
Now, he doesn't want to die. He wants to see the Tang Clan continue to take root and flourish in the Evolver World and in the global world where spiritual energy is recovering after the Great Cataclysm. He wants to live a leisurely life as a retired old man in the countryside.
The outline of the Asura Blade Technique kept appearing in his mind, each word powerful and resonant, as if engraved in his heart, and as if a mysterious person had personally imparted it to him.
Tang Taiyuan relied on his last breath to gather the life force of the Asura.
Asura are masters of slaughter, skilled in battle, fierce and warlike, both righteous and evil, and revering strength. They fight against heaven and earth, and if they have no regrets about their actions, they will follow the Asura Path.
" Asura Life and Death Technique: A single breath in the dantian, honed for a century, transforms into a divine being of blood and fury, capable of annihilating heaven and earth..."
Chu Feng sensed the change in Tang Taiyuan behind him and couldn't help but smile.
"Fairy, Elder Tang wants to live."
Xiao Tian turned his head and glanced at it, saying indifferently, "What does it have to do with me?"
Chu Feng was used to this cold and indifferent attitude, knowing that this fairy was warm-hearted beneath her cold exterior, and continued to inquire, "Fairy, do you know the method to revive the dead?"
"Take care of yourself." Xiao Tian was speechless. Why was Chu Feng suddenly taking the "good guy" route? This wouldn't do. This was too saintly, and he would be tempted to kill the kid and take his place.
To replace it?
Xiao Tian couldn't help but feel an impulsive thought!
According to information obtained from the original entity, the situation in the Eternal Chaos is dire. The Strange Matter is eroding the Eternal Chaos at an increasingly rapid and terrifying pace. It is said that even the top-tier Chaos Realms have begun to flee ahead of schedule, and many Chaos Realms are engaging in fierce competition to secure the best possible position.
The internal strife within the Chaos may cause many Eternal Chaos Deva Path to collapse.
"This Chu Feng is a sentient being born from an ancient artifact that emerged from the Gate of Eternity. What if he fails to perform well and cannot become the savior?"
"Ding! Hidden side quest triggered. Great Dao level choice 1: Plot the Primordial Hongmeng Plan, possess the protagonist Chu Feng, take his place, end the Chaos, and save the Chaos. Once chosen, you will receive the Great Dao Secret Key, which grants you the ability to access the Gate of Eternity!"
Great Dao Level Option 2: Suppress your inner evil thoughts and continue to help Chu Feng, the protagonist of the Primordial Hongmeng Plan, become the Eternal Chaos Savior and help him restore his true form. Once you choose this option, you will receive a small portion of a mysterious lucky gift pack. After completing the mission, you will receive the remaining rewards, including the ( Great Dao Level Treasure, the Gear of Fate )."
Xiao Tian was a little confused.
This system is pretty awesome!
These two choices are so domineering! So terrifying!
"It seems both I and my original self misjudged it! This Immortal Heavenly Dao System is far more outrageous than I imagined, its limits extend far beyond this Eternal Chaos. Could it be something beyond the realm of transcendence, on par with the mastermind behind the scenes, the Great Heavenly Venerate Lingbao?"
It must be said that these two choices truly put Xiao Tian in a difficult position.
Xiao Tian had always been curious about what lay Gate of Eternity!
The Great Dao Secret Key —just hearing that name tells you it's reliable, awesome!
Xiao Tian was truly troubled!
In order to help Tang Taiyuan find the Tang Clan members, Chu Feng decided to leave the Kunlun Mountain Range.
Zhou Quan had no objections. He had long wanted to return to the human cities. He had always heard that the order in some big cities was still quite good. Now that he had turned his life around, he desperately needed to show off in front of a group of ordinary people and experience the thrill of being a hero.
The Yellow Ox was disappointed. Chu Feng and Zhou Quan were, after all, human beings, while it was just an ox.
In the past, if a cow entered human society, it wouldn't be a problem, as long as it concealed its supernatural abilities, even under the surveillance of the Heavenly Eye.
But now, with the world changing and spiritual energy reviving, many animals are mutating, and humans certainly won't have any mercy for these mutated animals.
Once they had completely left the Kunlun Mountain Range, the Yellow Ox chose to say goodbye.
Zhou Quan, who was originally very unhappy with Yellow Ox and had been looking for an opportunity to get revenge, was now somewhat reluctant.
Yellow Ox was a comrade-in-arms. Although the teacher had kicked him, when Zhou Quan heard Yellow Ox's voice sound as childish as a five or six-year-old child, he didn't feel much anger.
Children are mischievous; it's in their nature.
"Little cow, are you going home?"
The Yellow Ox grunted softly, offering no response. As it turned away, its large, bright eyes were filled with confusion. Where was its home?
It didn't know where its Taoist School; it only knew that now that it had awakened and been born, it had to make this world remember it, so as not to lose its reputation as a divine beast.
"See you again someday! Fengzi! Fatty! And Fairy Yun Shang!"
The Yellow Ox turned its head, its eyes fixed on the back of the Fairy Yun Shang, and then it seemed to remember something.
"Little cow, are you reluctant to leave us and want to come back to human society with us? Hahaha! Don't worry, with us here, you won't be eaten!" Zhou Quan couldn't help but laugh.
" Yellow Ox, to be honest, it's really not suitable for you to come with us into human society. If it were me, Fatty, Fairy, and me, who are invincible, we could definitely protect you. But right now, the world is unpredictable, and the wild is where you are safest."
The Yellow Ox looked at him with disdain and, Universal Mental Technique, said, " Fengzi, who's looking for you? I'm back to have a word with the fairy."
Chu Feng felt extremely embarrassed and speechless.
The Yellow Ox came to Fairy Yun Shang, who was actually Xiao Tian. Its large eyes were very bright and lively. As if by magic, a simple and ancient animal skin scroll appeared from its front paws.
"For me?" Xiao Tian said indifferently.
The Yellow Ox nodded and Universal Mental Technique to communicate. "This is Breathing Technique. Fairy, you may observe it. I hope you can help find a suitable successor. This Breathing Technique is extraordinary, and the choice of master requires careful consideration. Of course, if Fairy wishes, you may also cultivate it. This Breathing Technique is definitely among the best in the world."
"Good."
The Yellow Ox turned and left.
Watching the ox gallop away, Xiao Tian almost burst out laughing. Clearly, this Breathing Technique was meant for Chu Feng, but he was using him instead.
Dao Yin Breathing Technique!
Xiao Tian showed no curiosity or hesitation, and handed it to Chu Feng, who was standing to the side.
"Whether you can master this Breathing Technique depends on your own destiny; it is absolutely top-tier in the world."
Chu Feng was taken aback, then frowned and said, "Fairy, this Breathing Technique was originally given to you by the Yellow Ox, why are you giving it to me?"
"You've only just embarked on the path of evolution, unlike me," Xiao Tian explained coldly.
"Fairy, can I cultivate?" Zhou Quan was eager to try. Hearing about the world's top Breathing Technique, he was a little excited, hoping that after cultivating it, he would become a great supernatural being who could overturn rivers and seas and fly through the sky.
Xiao Tian glanced at Zhou Quan, now a lean young man, and said indifferently, "No need to look anymore. This method isn't suitable for you, though you can try it if you wish."
"I'll give it a try, you Fengzi! Let's watch it together! Don't hog it all!"
Chu Feng settled the Handless Asura Tang Taiyuan, whom he was carrying, on the ground and said, " Elder Tang, it's getting dark. Let's rest first and continue our journey tomorrow morning."
"Alright," Tang Taiyuan said Weaken, closing his eyes and focusing on comprehending his Asura Blade, showing no interest whatsoever in the world's top Breathing Technique.
The moonlight fell upon the earth, and because the Blue Star was Entanglement by celestial spheres, the moonlight projected onto the earth formed a rather eerie shape.
After learning the Breathing Technique, Chu Feng and Zhou Quan sat cross-legged to meditate, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and condensing the essence of the Sun Moon.
Zhou Quan closed his eyes, trying very hard to understand the mystery of the Breathing Technique, but he couldn't figure it out no matter what he did. He felt that he quickly forgot the words and couldn't remember them at all.
It took Zhou Quan more than two hours to memorize the first half of the content.
However, Zhou Quan soon felt a splitting headache, and his whole body began to ache.
What happened?
Zhou Quan opened his eyes, no longer trying to comprehend the Breathing Technique, and the pain slowly subsided.
"Is there something wrong with this Breathing Technique?"
Zhou Quan closed his eyes and continued to comprehend, but in less than a minute, his head began to ache, followed by a sharp pain in his body, as if sharp needles were appearing inside his bones, scraping and piercing something.
"This is weird!"
Zhou Quan stopped feeling any more pain, and the sensation quickly subsided.
After repeating this cycle many times and courting death, Zhou Quan finally realized that this Breathing Technique was not meant for him.
"Fairy, why is this? Why can't I cultivate this Breathing Technique?" Zhou Quan was very distressed, upset, and aggrieved.
Xiao Tian felt a little sorry for him. Should he explain the situation to this guy?
"Are you sure you want to know?" Xiao Tian looked at the pair of bull horns on Zhou Quan's head.
Zhou Quan felt that Fairy Yun Shang's gaze was strange, and a bad premonition arose in his heart. His tone became timid, and he asked in a low voice, "Fairy, tell me, can I endure it?"
"This Breathing Technique is not suitable for you because of your constitution, because you are not considered human."
You're not human!
Zhou Quan was stunned! He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, completely dumbfounded.
"Fairy, why? You can't conclude that I'm not human just because I have bull horns."
Xiao Tian stated bluntly, "Your bloodline contains Demon Clan blood. You are not human; you are Demon Clan. In modern terms, you are a half-demon."
Half-demon!
Zhou Quan was greatly shocked, and his face showed pain.
"Waaaaah! Why?!"
"God! Why are you torturing me like this! You gave me hope, then closed the window and tried to trap my head! No!"
Tang Taiyuan opened his eyes, startled and confused by the sudden turn of events.
Although he thought Zhou Quan might not be human when he first met him, he never expected that he was actually a half-demon.
There are still quite a few such Evolver in today's human society, where spiritual energy is experiencing a great revival. As a result, many half-demons are discriminated against and choose to live and survive in the wild.
However, he did not feel any aversion towards half-demons. He believed that his body and hair were gifts from his parents, and he had no say in how he came to be.
" The Demon Clan has its Demon Clan Breathing Technique, which are far superior to those of the Human Clan, who are just starting out now, at the innate level." Xiao Tian couldn't stand this guy's tearful and whiny appearance anymore; it was really annoying and irritating.
Zhou Quan stopped crying and couldn't help but ask, "Fairy, do you have one?"
"No."
Zhou Quan looked extremely embarrassed.
"You should have asked the Yellow Ox."
Zhou Quan couldn't help but feel frustrated. He suddenly realized that he should take better care of the children. So what if he got kicked? What's wrong with getting a few kicks from the children? Wouldn't it be better to learn a Breathing Technique from them?
Zhou Quan turned his head and looked in the direction where the Yellow Ox had left, his eyes filled with reluctance.
"Niu'er, come back here! Fatty has something to tell you."
Zhou Quan's heart was breaking. He knew that Breathing Technique were crucial, but currently there wasn't a suitable Breathing Technique for him to walk the path to becoming a strongman. What was he going to do?
" The Kunlun Mountain Range hide many blessed lands, and even more forbidden zones. It is rumored that the sacred land of the Demon Clan is sealed within the Kunlun Mountain Range."
Zhou Quan was stunned upon hearing this.
"Fairy, where is it?"
"Wait, wait for time."
Zhou Quan clenched his fists; he had no other choice.
Overnight, Chu Feng barely managed to master the Dao Yin Breathing Technique. His physical constitution underwent a transformation, his Shackle broke, and he gained a deeper understanding of Xingyi Fist.
"Is this the benefit of Breathing Technique? If going to school can turn your life around, then this Breathing Technique is the key to wealth. Once you get your hands on it, you'll be rich. Whether you become a small landowner or a super-rich tycoon depends on yourself."
"Terrifying!"
Chu Feng exhaled a long breath, looked at Fairy Yun Shang, and bowed, saying, "Fairy, thank you."
"No need to thank me. This method is destined for you. You can figure out the Yellow Ox's true intentions yourself."
" Chu Feng must thank you, Fairy. Without your presence on this journey to Kunlun, Chu Feng and Zhou Quan would likely have long since become two skeletons on the Kunlun cultivation path, or perhaps even vanished without a trace."
" The Fengzi is right, fairy. I've caught a mutated rabbit. Breakfast is roasted rabbit, and you can have all the rabbit legs."
Xiao Tian was very satisfied; Fatty was indeed sensible and knew how to get along with things.
After a night's rest, Handless Asura, though he hadn't eaten much, was no longer too Weaken to walk.
However, these hands are unlikely to grow back. For Handless Asura to transform into Asura Hand, it would be impossible to achieve this and restore its complete form unless it obtains a divine elixir.
After a simple meal of roasted rabbit, the group continued their journey.
Two weeks later, they discovered the outline of a human city.
"Phew, we're about to enter the city. So many days have passed, I feel like I'm turning into a wild man. I wonder if I'm out of touch with modern society," Chu Feng murmured.
Zhou Quan's eyes were full of anticipation; he hadn't experienced city life in a long time.
Being in the wild always puts you on edge, fearing that some random creature might jump out and kill you.
But opportunities and dangers coexist. If Zhou Quan were given a chance to start over, he would still choose to embark on this path of evolution.
"Fairy, we're going to a human city. If possible, I hope you can put on some makeup and dress simply. Beauty is a sin," Chu Feng paused and reminded her.
Xiao Tian nodded, a large black cloak appeared in his right hand, covering his body, and a box appeared in his left hand. He scooped up some soil and smeared it on his face.
Chu Feng and Zhou Quan were astonished by Fairy Yun Shang's efficient actions.
"You're amazing! So professional! Mud has beauty and skincare benefits; just wash it off later, it'll be fine."
"Our Tang Clan has a branch in that city," Tang Taiyuan, the Handless Asura, said at this moment.
