Jiang Feng's expression was full of doubt as he watched the half soul of the Skyscraping Devil being sucked into the pagoda by the light beam.
"I'll go in and take a look first." His soul flew into the pagoda. He wanted to see what the pagoda that had suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness was. Was it a blessing or a curse to him?
The lowest level of the pagoda wasn't very large. It was about the same size as Jiang Feng's simple and crude house and had four walls. Other than a scroll hanging in the middle, there wasn't anything else.
To be exact, it couldn't be called a painting, because there were only a few simple lines on it.
Jiang Feng was prepared to continue up, but when he made contact with the entrance to the second level, an invisible pressure pressed down like a mountain, causing his soul to tremble.
"The power of the seal!" Jiang Feng was shocked. There was actually the power of the seal in the pagoda, and he was still unable to step into the second level.
Jiang Feng had no choice but to stay at the bottom and observe the only painting.
At this moment, beams of light spread out from the painting scroll, engulfing Jiang Feng's soul and then exploding. Jiang Feng felt a sharp pain in his sense of perception and his soul had been shaken out of the pagoda. At the same time, the pagoda's light began to dim and gradually disappeared, unable to be sensed anymore.
When his soul returned to its original position, Jiang Feng felt an incomparably sharp pain in his head.
The next moment, Jiang Feng suddenly raised his head, a bright light blazing in his eyes.
"Sky Domineering Star Body, this, this is a memory technique. There is actually a technique inside the pagoda that can sense my soul and directly engrave it in my memory." Jiang Feng's heart was pounding.
According to his memories, the Tyrannical Star Body was a body-refining skill. On the path of martial arts, the first thing to do was to temper the body to the extreme, and then to sense the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and practice martial arts techniques with infinite power.
However, this was not for Body Refining Realm, but a set of extremely powerful body-refining skills.
Martial artists practiced martial arts techniques with great power, but martial arts techniques were created by people. In ancient times, there were no martial arts techniques. How could a martial artist practice and fight?
The answer was self-evident.
The physical strength of the Body Refining Skill was so strong that it could ignore all martial arts techniques and cultivation methods.
Jiang Feng was deeply shocked by this memory technique. These memories had widened his knowledge of martial dao.
He carefully comprehended them and his heart skipped a beat. He even began to look forward to seeing if each of the ten layers of the pagoda had a corresponding memory cultivation method.
He tried to practice according to the incantation. His legs bent down freely, and his body began to bend. Then he suddenly bounced backward at his waist like a full moon. In an instant, a special aura flowed out of his body.
"Ah!"
An extremely terrifying pain traveled from his entire body into his mind, as if thousands of arrows had shot into his body, causing Jiang Feng's expression to change drastically. His entire body shot out uncontrollably, and he slumped onto the ground.
"What a perverted technique. It's already so painful at the very first step of entry. I feel like my entire body is being torn into pieces." Jiang Feng sighed with emotion, but his heart was filled with joy. The more perverted a person was, the more it showed how powerful this body refining technique was.
What Jiang Feng hadn't noticed was that the half soul of the Skyscraping Devil was staring at him. His illusory expression was indescribably complicated.
"That beam of light can actually purify the bloodthirsty demonic nature in his soul." The Skyfiend muttered to himself. He could sense that Jiang Feng's bloodthirsty demonic nature had dissipated quite a bit. At this moment, he had thought of many things.
With his identity and experience, he couldn't see through the mystery of the pagoda. At the same time, he was wondering why his spirit hadn't been destroyed and why it had appeared in Jiang Feng's body. This didn't seem right.
In addition, it was even more unlikely that Jiang Feng's soul would appear.
It seemed that this little doll had too many secrets. His identity was probably not simple.
"Kid, this place is not safe." The Skyfiend spoke. His fate was already tied up with Jiang Feng's. Since he had promised to protect him for thirty years, he naturally had to consider Jiang Feng's interests.
What's more, Jiang Feng was so mysterious. He also wanted to see what kind of identity this kid had and how high he could reach.
"Mm." Jiang Feng restrained his thoughts. He'd just killed someone from the imperial city. If the other party hadn't returned to report back, it would've been hard to guarantee that the other party wouldn't continue to send people to investigate. This place was indeed not safe.
Jiang Feng picked up his grandfather's body and walked towards the mountain slope step by step.
On the mountain slope, Jiang Feng cut down a few large trees and made a coffin, preparing to bury his grandfather.
"Grandpa, Feng'er has become a martial artist. You must be very happy."
Jiang Feng knelt in front of the coffin with a sorrowful expression. "Although Feng'er has entered the Devil's Practice, don't worry, Grandpa. There's also a way in the Devil's Practice. Feng'er will not disappoint you. I will definitely be able to hold my own for the rest of my life."
"And those people from the imperial city, I will definitely make them pay with their blood!" Jiang Feng's tone changed as a cold and sinister aura suddenly bloomed, suffusing a bloodthirsty aura.
"Although we can rest in peace, I don't think Grandpa will feel at ease if his enemy is still alive."
Suddenly, a solemn look flashed across Jiang Feng's face. He kowtowed three times in a row and said, "Grandfather, forgive me for being unfilial. I don't have the face to bury my enemy if he doesn't die. I want you to stand by my side and witness my revenge."
Perhaps, Jiang Feng couldn't bear to part with his grandfather, so he decided to bring the coffin with him until he took revenge and buried it.
"Sigh!" The Skyfiend sighed softly and said, "Kid, your revenge will easily ignite your bloodthirsty demonic nature. I'll pass you a Blood Demon Heart Cleansing Spell. You should comprehend it more and wear down your bloodthirsty demonic nature. First, stabilize your Dao heart."
"It's all because of you old bastard who used demonic arts to disturb my mind and wanted to take this opportunity to possess me." Jiang Feng cursed as he began to sense the Blood Demon Heart Cleansing Spell.
"Cough cough." The Skyfiend coughed awkwardly and said, "You have just joined the Devil and your Dao heart is unstable. It's not suitable for you to cultivate a fiendish cultivation method. However, I can teach you a life-saving cultivation method named 'Shadow Kill'."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Skyfiend soul began to hide and could no longer sense it.
Jiang Feng was overjoyed when he sensed Ying Sha's presence.
Shadow Kill was a skill of teleportation. It could move within a certain period of time. The higher one's realm was, the deeper one's cultivation would be, and the wider the range of teleportation would be.
Think about it. In a battle, if you encountered an unavoidable and powerful attack, if you could teleport, you would indeed be able to save your life. Even when you took the initiative to attack, you would have an amazing effect of winning.
This old devil was indeed a strong demon. Although he only had a remnant soul, his memory was still there. It seemed that he had to find a way to get something good in the future.
Jiang Feng first comprehended Shadow Kill for a while before cultivating the Blood Demon Heart Cleansing Spell. He first resolved the bloodthirsty nature and stabilized his dao heart.
...
"Have you heard? The young lady of the Mu family, Mu Rongxue, sensed the Spiritual Qi last night and broke through to the seventh level of the Body Tempering stage, becoming a martial artist."
"It's more than that. I heard that Mu Rongxue still has a special constitution. Her future achievements are limitless."
"Yes, it seems that he has a yin constitution. After becoming a warrior, he still has a special constitution. He must be a well-known figure in the Qin Kingdom in the future."
"That's right. I heard that the Martial Grand Marshal's Mansion of the Left Military of the Imperial City has already formed an alliance with the Mu family. They want to take Mu Rongxue to the Imperial City and participate in the examination of the Tianying Academy in ten days. They are trying their best to cultivate Mu Rongxue."
"Tianying Academy is established by the royal family and is the best academy in the Qin Kingdom. Mu Rongxue is destined to become a high-class figure. As for the Mu family, it is said that a mother is valued by a son. Mu Yuanshan is benefited from his daughter. From then on, the Mu family can also become a royal family and become a noble."
In the early morning, a young man in black walked on the street of South Hill City, listening to the conversations of the crowd around him, with a faint bitter smile at the corner of his mouth.
The young man's shoulder was tied with a tie, and his shoulder was carrying a coffin. His clothes were black, his black hair was flying, and even his eyes were dark and deep. But compared with last night, he was much better.
This person was Jiang Feng. After cultivating the Blood Demon Heart Cleansing Spell for one night, his demonic nature had dissipated greatly, and his demon qi had also faded. He was now able to restrain his bloodthirsty urge. Apart from his clothes and long hair that were still incomparably dark, there were no other distinct demonic characteristics.
"No wonder Mu Yuanshan is like this. It turns out that he has climbed into the Marshal's Mansion of the Left Army of the Imperial City."
Jiang Feng sneered. He was wondering if the other party would change his attitude if he told Mu Yuanshan about his current situation.
Of course, Jiang Feng wasn't that humble. It was enough for him to see through a person's nature. Now, the only thing he cared about was the attitude of Mu Rongxue, who had helped him cultivate for five years.
Was he like Mu Yuanshan, or was he forced to do so?
Also, was the Mu family involved in what happened last night?
"Eh? You trash, how dare you come to the Mu Estate?" Just as Jiang Feng was deep in thought, an angry shout suddenly rang out. He raised his head and saw that he had unknowingly arrived outside the Mu Estate.
At this moment, Chen Xing was pointing at him and insulting him. He originally thought that it was an opportunity for him to come to the Imperial City, but this morning, the people from the Imperial City only took Mu Yuanshan and Mu Rongxue away, and he still couldn't go out of South Hill City.
This made him very depressed. When he saw Jiang Feng at this moment, he naturally wanted to vent his anger.
"You're as petty as a ghost." Jiang Feng's expression was cold, causing the expressions of Chen Xing and the others to freeze slightly. The corners of his mouth then parted, revealing a cruel smile. "Do you think you'd be able to scare us just by changing into another form of clothing? How laughable. Brothers, let this trash wake up and see the cruelty of reality."
As he spoke, he was the first to charge out, swinging his fist towards Jiang Feng's head. His fist was exceedingly strong.
Jiang Feng had broken through to the seventh level of Body Tempering and cultivated the power of the Devil's Practice. He could even kill a martial artist at the eighth level of the Imperial City. Although Jiang Feng was afraid of fighting, his opponent's strength was definitely not weaker than Chen Xing's.
Chen Xing had originally looked down on Jiang Feng and thought that Jiang Feng could bully him at will. Therefore, although his random moves seemed strong, they were full of flaws under Jiang Feng's perception.
Jiang Feng's gaze suddenly grew cold as he gently put down the coffin.
When Chen Xing's attack came, his body leaned slightly to one side to avoid the fist wind, and then he kneed hard on the other side's lower abdomen. In an instant, Chen Xing only felt that his internal organs were cracked and he fell to the ground in pain.
"Captain?" The several guards behind him narrowed their eyes, then flew into a rage.
"Useless. How dare you launch a sneak attack on Captain Chen." The guards didn't expect that Jiang Feng had already become stronger. They thought that Chen Xing had been careless and had been successfully attacked by Jiang Feng. All of them were extremely angry as they brandished their fists and charged towards Jiang Feng.
This time, Jiang Feng didn't dodge. He clenched his fists tightly and swung them straight out. Like two strong iron hammers, he smashed them into the guard's fists.
In an instant, a cracking sound could be heard as the arms of the guards were directly shattered. Before they could scream out in pain, Jiang Feng had continuously punched out several times, destroying all of their other arms.
"Ah!" A pig-killing scream rang out in an instant. They would never have imagined that the trash in their eyes could actually cripple them.
After that, Jiang Feng walked towards Chen Xing.
Chen Xing curled up on the ground and continuously spat out blood from the corner of his mouth. He had completely lost the ability to fight. He looked at Jiang Feng in horror and disbelief.
He didn't understand why a good-for-nothing suddenly became so powerful.
"You, if you dare to hurt me, the Imperial City will definitely kill you."
"You really think highly of yourself."
Jiang Feng stepped forward and pulled Chen Xingyi's collar, saying coldly, "You used to say that I was trash and didn't know my limits. But now, your life is in the hands of a trash like me who doesn't know what's good for you. What do you think?"
"Actually, you're right. You should know your limits. You're just a watchdog. Do you think that the Mu Estate and the Imperial City really care about you?"
"You humiliated me and spat at me. Then shut your mouth forever."
Chen Xing was shocked, and his frightened eyes were full of pleading. Before he could beg for mercy, Jiang Feng's fist had already hit his mouth, hitting off his satisfied teeth, and even his face had been deformed.
He was crippled. He was completely crippled.
Chen Xing and the others rolled on the ground in pain. In their hearts, they were filled with regret.
"10 days later, in the Imperial City."
Jiang Feng didn't take another look at them. His gaze was remote and cold.
There were some things that had to be asked face to face. There were some things that had to be avenged.
